The purpose of this study is to define the normal findings of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of the clinically healthy Beagle dogs and to provide basic information in diagnosis of neurologic disorders. CSF obtained from 13 clinically healthy dogs was examined for total and differential cell counts, total protein concentration, glucose and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) concentration, specific gravity, turbidity, and protein electrophoresis. On gross examination, CSF samples evaluated were clear and colorless. Few red blood cells and nucleated cells were present. The mean concentration of glucose and LDH examined were 65.8 mg/dl and 2.7 mg/dl, respectively. The cellular components of CSF samples based on differential counts were monocytes (41.9%), activated macrophages (35.8%), lymphocytes (20.0%), neutrophils (1.6%), and eosinophils (0.7%). The fractions of electrophoretic protein in CSF were albumin (52.7%), alpha-globulin (16.5%), beta-globulin (24.8%), and gamma-globulin (3.0%). Results of albumin quota were ranged from 0.15 to 0.38. In conclusion, this study provided normal composition of CSF in Beagle dogs.

The effects of heavy metals on the growth rate and phosphate metabolism of Chlorella elliposidea cells were investigated. Chlorella cells were cultured in the media treated with Hg(0.3, 0.7, 0.9 ppm), Cd(1, 5, 15ppm), and Zn(1, 5, 50ppm) for 6days. Aliquots cells were taken out at the inoculation and at intervals during the culture, and measured packed cell vlolume and optical density. The inhibitions of heavy metals on the growth rate and chlorophyll contents were traced. Also after 6 days culture, the amounts of inorganic phosphate and organic compounds of various fractions in Chlorella cells were observed. The turbid effects of heavy metals on the growth rate and chlorphyll contents of Chlorella cells were in order of Hg>Cd>Zn. Because heavy metals depressed the biosynthesis of inorganic polyphosphates and nucleic acids and turn over of inorganic phosphates, the amounts of various phosphate compounds were decreased. The inhibitory effect of photosynthesis by heavy metals resulted in lower contents of carbohydrate. Due to the turbidity of biosynthesis of amino acids by heavy metals, contents of protein were reduced in comparison with those of control. It is suggested conciusively that the minimum concentrations affected by heavy metals on the growth rate and phosphate metabolism of Chlorella cells were 0.7 ppm Hg, 15ppm Cd, 50ppm Zn.

Deterministic and probabilistic approaches to the design of ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system for water reclamation are reviewed and discussed. The high inactivation of TC, FC and E. coli by UV disinfection was demonstrated and the inactivations of TC, FC and E. coli were 97%, 98% and 99%, respectively. Within the range of 0.3-4.5mWs/cm, the effect of UV does on the inactivation ratio was not observed. However, in the highest wattage of UV lamp, 39W, the inactivation ratio of TC, FC and E. coli was 100%, regardless of the UV does so the UV density was more effective on inactivation ratio of TC, FC and E. coli rather than UV does. Under the 0.4 mWs/cm and 16W of UV lamp, the effect of dissolved organic matter and turbidity on the inactivations of TC, FC and E. coli could not be observed in this study within the range of 0-60mg/L and 0-40 NTU respectively.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of dried noodles made of wheat flour with different concentrations of Dioscorea japonica flour. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties and viscosity were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Water binding capacity, solubility and swelling power of the composite Dioscorea japonica flour-wheat flours were higher than those of pure wheat flour. Gelatinization points of the composite Dioscorea japonica flour-wheat flours were increased and initial viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes and maximum viscosity of these composites were decreased, with increasing Dioscorea japonica flour content, as measured by amylograph. With increasing Dioscorea japonica flour content, L and b values were decreased, but a value was increased, for the color values, while weight and volume of the cooked noodles and turbidity of the soup were increased. For the textural characteristics, the addition of Dioscorea japonica flour increased the hardness and decreased the adhesiveness, cohesiveness and springiness. Overall, the noodles made with 10% Dioscorea japonica flour were preferred more than the other noodles, as tested by sensory evaluation.

In this study, chemical coagulation conditions for treating combined sewer overflow(CSO) occurred during rainy season were evaluated by jar tests with aluminum sulfate[$Al_2(SO_4)_3{\cdot}17H_2O$] and ferric chloride[$FeCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$]. The raw domestic sewage sampled from the primary sedimentation tank at a local sewage treatment plant was filtered through $150{\mu}m$ sieve before using. Point of zero charge(PZC) for various dose of aluminum sulfate occurred at pH 5.8-6.5, while for ferric chloride occurred at pH 5.3-6.0 in term of streaming current(SC) values. Charge neutralization ability of aluminum sulfate was bigger than that of ferric chloride. Optimum pH and dose of aluminum sulfate and ferric chloride were 6.2, 0.438mM and 5.8, 0.925mM, respectively. Removal efficiencies of TCOD, turbidity, SS and TP were 75, 97, 95, 96% with aluminum sulfate and 74, 96, 98, 99% with ferric chloride at their optimum coagulation conditions. More efficient removal of SS, TP and small particles was possible with ferric chloride at optimum coagulation conditions. Both SC values and COD removal started to increase where soluble phosphorus was completely removed.

The Purpose of this study is to reduce environmental problems caused by landfill of bituminous coal fly ash emitted from the power plant and to reuse it. First of all, we experimented that Al and Si elements were extracted from fly ash and investigated that extracted Al and Si elements night use a coagulant. The extraction was carried out under various conditions ; concentration of the extraction solution, calcination temperature and calcination time. As the results, it was found that the optimum conditions of the extraction of Al and Si elements from fly ash were as follows, concentration of NaOH was 5N for both of them, calcination temperature was $700^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ and calcination time was 1hr and 1.5hr, respectively The extracted solution was used as a coagulant to treat the diluted metal-plating solutions which contained Pb and Cu, respectively. As the result of treatment on the diluted Pb-plating solution with 315NTU, the removal efficiency of turbidity was more than 90%, and the removal efficiency of Pb was about 80%. As for treatment of the non-turbid diluted Cu-plating solution, the removal efficiency of Cu was about 98%.

For the purpose of finding out the distributions of groundwater uses, the effect of facilities on the parameter and the correlations among measurements, various statistical analysis were carried out with the data of groundwater quality measurements from January to December in 2002. 1. The rates of groundwater for drinking water were 10.5% in Yangcheon-Gu, 10.2% in Kangdong-Gu, and 9.9% in Eunpyung-Gu. The rates of other uses of groundwater were shown to be 58.1%(786 wells) for civil defense emergency, 22.1%(299 wells) for contamination-concerning, 9.8%(133 wells) for water quality monitoring, consisting of 90% of all groundwater. 2. The 52.6% of groundwater for drinking were demonstrated to be appropriate while 91.9% for tither uses-domestic, industrial, agricultural uses- were shown to be proper. 3. For drinking water, the average values of colar, turbidity, NH3-N, F, and Fe were 11.216 degree, 2.138 NTU, 2.458mg/l, 0.212mg/1 and 0.507mg/1 respectively. 4. In cases of drinking water wells for emergency, the results of statistical analysis showed that building year of the wells, depth and pumping rate didn't affect on whether it was proper for that use or not. It were shown that there were linear correlations between depth and NO$_3$-N(-0.171) and F￣(0.332) while the correlation coefficients were 0.381 and -0.169 between the building year of well and depth and pumping rate respectively.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of mixed bone and brisket meat on the quality characteristics and nutritional components of shank bone extract and rib extract from Hanwoo. The pH values were influenced by the raw bones, mixed bone, brisket meat and their interactions (p<0.05). The salinity, sugar content, turbidity, and essential amino acid values increased significantly with addition of mixed bone and brisket meat. All attributes of sensory evaluation score were the highest in T6 (Rib 500 g + Mixed bone 500 g + Brisket meat 400 g) (p<0.05). The mixed bone significantly increased the saturated fatty acids of shank bone extract (p<0.001). Thus, the addition of mixed bone and brisket meat had a positive effect on the quality and nutritional components in shank and rib extracts of Hanwoo cattle.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the temporal and spatial characteristics of the stream flow of small rural streams for investigating the status of stream depletion located downstream of irrigation reservoir. Bonghyun and Hai reservoirs and each downstream were selected for this study. Streamflow was measured for 8 stations downstream from two reservoirs from 2010 to 2012. The water quality samples were collected monthly from the 8 stream stations and 2 reservoir stations from 2011 to 2012. The stream depletion was found in most of the downstream of reservoirs for the non-irrigation period and even in the irrigation period when there were a lot of antecedent precipitation. We found that the stream segments where there were few streamflow, vegetation covers the stream and block the streamflow which makes the stream lost its original function as a stream. Water quality monitoring results of Bonghyun stream indicated that the concentration of SS, Turbidity, TOC, COD were decreased as the stream flows from the reservoir to downstream while the TN and TP were increased. The correlation analysis for water quality data indicated that the correlation between T-N and T-P was high for Bonghyeon and Sukji streams, respectively. Continuous monitoring for rural streams located in downstream of reservoirs are required to quantify the status of stream flow depletion and determine the amount of environmental flows.

The principal objectives of this study were to analyze the physiochemical properties of four mulberry fruit beverages (MFBs) and develop descriptive analysis procedures for evaluation of their sensory characteristics. Soluble solid, free sugar, pH, acidity, chromaticity, flavonoid, and anthocyanin of MFBs were determined. All MFB samples showed significantly different physicochemical properties ($p$<0.01). Ten highly trained panelists identified the following 11 sensory attributes in the MFBs and defined the terminology for each attribute : turbidity, chromaticity for appearance characteristics, berry, grass, fermented, sweet, astringent, and sour for flavor characteristics, and throat hit, refreshing, and astringent for textural characteristics. There were significant differences in the 10 sensory attributes among the MFB samples ($p$<0.001). In color, the value of MFB3 was significantly higher than those of others ($p$<0.05). In taste and overall acceptance, the values of MFB2 were significantly higher than those of others ($p$<0.01, $p$<0.001). Descriptive terminology of the developed MFBs could explain the sensory attributes of the samples according to this result. Based on this, proper analysis and sensory evaluation techniques could be applied to other fruit beverages to establish their physiochemical characteristic and descriptive sensory attributes.
