It is described that the proton beam induces micro defects and electronic deep levels in Cz single crystal silicon. Enhance signal-to-noise ratio, Coincidence Doppler Broadening Positron Annihilation Spectroscopy has been applied to study of characteristics of p type and n type silicon samples. In this investigation the numerical analysis of the Doppler spectra was employed to the determination of the shape parameter, S, defined as the ratio between the amount of counts in a central portion of the spectrum and the total counts of whole spectrum. The samples were exposed by 4.0 MeV proton beams ranging from 0 to ${\sim}10^{14}$ ptls. The S-parameter values were increased as increasing the irradiated proton beam, that indicated the defects generate more.

Lactosucrose ($4^G-\beta$-D-galactosylsucrose) is an oligosaccharide consisting of galactose, glucose, and fructose. In this study, we prepared lactosucrose from lactose and sucrose using a levansucrase derived from Zymomonas mobilis. Optimum conditions for lactosucrose formation were $23^{\circ}C$, pH 7.0, 18.0% (w/v) lactose monohydrate, and 18% (w/v) sucrose as substrates, and 1 unit of enzyme/ml of reaction mixture. Under these conditions, the lactosucrose conversion efficiency was 28.5%. The product was purified and confirmed to be O-$\beta$-D-galactopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}4$)-O-$\beta$)-D-glucopyranosyl-($1{\rightarrow}2$)-$\beta$-D-fructofuranoside, or lactosucrose. A mixed-enzyme system containing a levansucrase and a glucose oxidase was applied in order to increase the efficiency of lactose and sucrose conversion to lactosucrose, which rose to 43.2% as a result.

The instability of hirsutenone (HST), a potential therapeutic candidate for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) and ovarian carcinoma, is one of the main concerns for the development of drug product. In the present study, aqueous stability of HST was investigated by kinetic analysis, and the effect of several factors covering temperature, nitrogen gas ($N_2$) flushing, and selection of proper antioxidant was compared. Cosolvent system composed of distilled water and methanol (9:1 v/v) was used as a vehicle to dissolve HST at the concentration of $200{\mu}g/mL$. Samples of aqueous solution were prepared under the absence or presence of antioxidants, such as ascorbic acid (AA), sodium edetate (EDTA), and ascorbyl palmitate (AP), and subjected for stability test. The degradation of HST in aqueous solution was followed by the first order kinetics with an extremely short half life of less than a week at room temperature, and was accelerated as the temperature increased. $N_2$ flushing brought a little enhancement in stability compared to control solution, but the effect was insufficient. The addition of AA and EDTA (0.1%) significantly enhanced the stability of HST at $40^{\circ}C$, but the addition of AP (0.01%) was limited due to its water insolubility and revealed no promising result. The stability of HST was increased proportionally by the amount of AA added, showing the difference in degree of stabilization as an order of magnitude. Finally, we conclude that HST was stabilized by the addition of a suitable antioxidant, suggesting AA as the most effective stabilizer.

In this study, degradation was observed by irradiating UV rays to the polymer insulators which have been widely used in outdoor electric power facilities. For an indoor accelerated UV test, 0.55 w/m2 of UV rays were applied using a xenon-arc method. A UV detection system with 65 ${\phi}mm$ in diameter, 100 mm in length and 1.0 of brightness (F/#) has been designed. Even though efflorescence on the surface of polymer insulators wasn't observed according to the accelerated UV test. UV rays were detected at around 50% and 40% of insulation breakdown in EPDM and silicone-type insulators respectively. As degradation continued because of an indoor accelerated UV test, breakdown voltage with which UV rays can be detected in an early stage decreased as well. A silicone polymer insulator would be severer than EPDM polymer insulator in terms of surface degradation because of UV strength against $V_m/V_{BD}$ was high in silicone polymer insulators. UV strength in silicone-type insulators increased at 1,000 $kJ/m^2$ because contact angle at the intial stage sharply decreased to from $113^{\circ}$ to $92.1^{\circ}$.

In this study, isolation of antioxidative compounds was performed for development of anti-oxidizing agent. $CHCl_{3}$, $H_{2}O$, 30%, 60% MeOH, MeOH fractions were examined antioxidative activity by DPPH method, TBARS assay, and SOD like activity. It was revealed that 30%, 60% MeOH fractions had significant antioxidative activity. From 30%, 60% MeOH fraction, nine compounds were isolated and elucidated kaempferol $3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl$ $(1{\rightarrow}6)-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (1), quercetin $7-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (II), quercetin $3-O-{\alpha}-L-rhamnopyranosyl$ $(1{\rightarrow}6)$ ${\beta}-D-glucopyranoside(rutin)$ (III), 6-hydroxykaempferol $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (lV), kaempferol $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranosyl$ $(1{\rightarrow}2)$ ${\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (V), kaempferol $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (VI), luteolin (VII), quercetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ (VIII), apigenin $7-O-{\beta}-D-glucuronopyranoside$ (IX) through physicochemical data and spectroscopic methods (Negative FAB-MS, $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$). Entirely, all compounds had similar antioxidative activity, but more OH group had more antioxidative activity.

New triple tungstate phosphors NaPbLa(WO₄)₃:Yb³⁺/Ho³⁺ (x = Yb³⁺/Ho³⁺ = 7, 8, 9, 10) are successfully fabricated by microwave assisted sol-gel synthesis and their structural and frequency upconversion (UC) characteristics are investigated. The compounds crystallized in the tetragonal space group I4₁/a and the NaPbLa(WO₄)₃ host have unit cell parameters a = 5.3927(1) and c = 11.7961(3) Å, V = 343.05(2) ų, Z = 4. Under excitation at 980 nm, the phosphors have yellowish green emissions, which are derived from the intense ⁵S₂/⁵F₄→⁵I₈ transitions of Ho³⁺ ions in the green spectral range and strong ⁵F₅→⁵I₈ transitions in the red spectral range. The optimal Yb³⁺:Ho³⁺ ratio is revealed to be x = 9, which is attributed to the quenching effect of Ho³⁺ ions, as indicated by the composition dependence. The UC characteristics are evaluated in detail under consideration of the pump power dependence and Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage chromaticity. The spectroscopic features of Raman spectra are discussed in terms of the superposition of Ho³⁺ luminescence and vibrational lines. The possibility of controlling the spectral distribution of UC luminescence by the chemical content of tungstate hosts is demonstrated.

An animal health monitoring system in Gyeongnam area (near-Chinju) was studied to evaluate the environmental risk factors, physical examinations and 4 disease entities(abomasal displacement, traumatic reticulopericarditis ＆ -peritonitis, milk fever and lameness) in 40(34 in second year)dairy herds (total 1253 dairy cattle). In feeding environments, we examined housing system, forage percentage in ration, stall types, playground, cleanness of stall. In housing system, most of herds (60%) have tie-stall types and 36 herds are open-type housing. The forage ratio of ration was less than 50% in most of herds (67%). 39 herds had their own playgrounds and the frequency of playground cleanness was irregular, Physical examinations included the T(temperature), P (pulse), R (respiration), abnormalities of superficial lymph nodes, claw examination and total CBC with blood from tail veins. T, P, R are within normal limits (T : 38.1$\pm$0.6$^{\circ}C$, P : 84.6$\pm$12.9/min., R : 24.0$\pm$7.6/min. ,respectively), the swelling of lymph nodes were shown in 13 cattle and overall claw trimming was required in 3 herds. In blood examination, 23 cattle showed leuko-cytosis and 7 cattle showed low RBC and hemoglobin level, the other cattle were within normal limits (WBC : 8.90$\pm$2.06 10$^3$/ul., RBC : 6.36$\pm$1.02 10$^{6}$ ul, Hb : 9.83$\pm$ 1.20 g/dl PCV : 27.43$\pm$5.67 %, respectively). In 4 disease entities, we found some metallic foreign bodies in men of 13 cattle, which had predisposing factors of traumatic reticulopericarditis and reticuloperitonitis, 13 abomasal displacement, 51 milk fever and lameness in 39 cattle.

In this study, the vertical aligned carbon nanotubes was synthesized by DC bias-assisted Inductively Coupled Plasma Hot-Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition (ICPHFCVD). The substrate used CNTs growth was Ni(300 ${\AA}$)/Cr(200 ${\AA}$)-deposited one on glass by RF magnetron sputtering. R-F, DC bias and filament power during the growth process were 150 W, 80 W, 7∼8 A, respectively. The grown CNTs showed hollow structure and multi-wall CNTs. The top of grown CNT was found to Ni-tip that the CNT end showed to metaltip. The graphitization and field emission properties of grown was better than grown CNTs by ICPCVD. The turn-on voltage of CNT grown by DC bias-assisted ICPHFCVD showed about 3 V/${\mu}m$.

In the present work, the quality stability of sun-dried Alaska pollack, Theragra chalcogramma, was discussed in the aspects of non-enzymatic discoloration as a function of relative humidity during storage at room temperature$(20^{\circ}C)$. Frozen Alaska pollack was dressed, filleted, dried for 48 hours in the open air, and finally stored in cylindrical acrylic chambers which contained saturated specific salt solutions proposed by Rockland(1960) for humidity control. The color development of the product was analyzed by spectrophotometry at 10 day-intervals during the storage. Lipid oxidation was measured as TBA value at wavelength of 538nm. And browning pigments were extracted, divided into two fractions and measured at 460nm: one was chloroform-methanol (2:1 v/v)soluble fraction attributed to lipid oxidation, and the other was water dialyzed fraction caused by so called Maillard reaction. The TBA value showed a maximum on 30 day storage, hereafter, intended to decrease gradually. On the other hand, the rate of brown pigment development in water dialyzed fractions as well as in chloroform-methanol soluble fractions was lower at 34 to 45%RH than at any other case, and propagation of lipid oxidation was also diminished at the same levels of humidity. From the facts described previously, it is recognized that storage at 34 to 45%RH provides higher quality stability for sun-dried Alaska pollack.
