Objectives This study is designed to investigate the effects of Jujadokseo-hwan on the brain ability and inducing oxidative stresses. Methods We measured the changes of regional cerebral blood flow and mean arterial blood pressure. Then we analyzed histological examination, immunohistochemistric response and anti-oxidant activity of Jujadokseo-hwan. Results 1. Treatment of Jujadokseo-hwan significantly increased regional cerebral blood flow but decreased mean arterial blood pressure. 2. Treatment of Jujadokseo-hwan-induced increase of regional cerebral blood flow was significantly inhibited by pretreatment with indomethacin (1 mg/kg, i.p.), an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase. 3. In histological examination through TTC stain, group I was no change, but group II showed that discolored in the most cortical part. Group III showed that decreased discolor in the cortical part. 4. In immunohistochemistric response of BDNF, group II showed that lower response effect. Group III showed that increase response effect. 5. Treatment of Jujadokseo-hwan increased proliferation rates of Glial cell effectively 6. Treatment of Jujadokseo-hwan accelerated proliferation rates of C6 cells in vitro. In addition, protective effects on cell death induced by paraquat, rotenone and hydrogen peroxide. In addition, activity of SOD were increased by treatment with Jujadokseo-hwan. Conclusions In conclusion, Jujadokseo-hwan can improve of the brain ability, learning ability, memory ability and induce ischemic brain injuries.

A severe brown rot on peach fruit caused by a Phytophthora sp. has occurred at peach orchards in Taegu of Korea from late June to early August in 1997. Infected fruits showed irregularly round or circular water soaking brown regions. In the severe case, fruits were entirely rotten and surface of the fruits were wrinkled. Occasionally, white mycelia and abundant sporangia were developed on the surface of fruit. Inner tissues of the fruits were also discolored to brown. The causal fungus was identified as Phytophthora cactorum based on following characteristics. Sporangia were ovoid, conspicuously papillate, caducous and measured as 28.4~48.1$\times$21.9~37.2 (av. 39.9$\times$30.4) ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Sexuality of the fungus was homothallic. Oogonia were 25.0~34.0 (av. 29.9) ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Most antheridia were paragynous and measured av. 10.5$\times$13.0 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Optimum temperature for mycelia growth was around 25~3$0^{\circ}C$. However none of the isolates grew under 7$^{\circ}C$ and over 35$^{\circ}C$. The fungus revealed high pathogenicity to fruits, shoots and leaves of peach, apple and pear with different degrees. Phytophthora fruit rot of peach caused by Phytophthora cactorum has not been reported in Korea previously.

Verticillium wilt was first observed in 2001 on potatoes (Solanum tuberosum) cv. Superior at Daegwallyong area, one of the major seed potato producing areas in Korea. The wilted potato plants showed typical symptoms including gradual yellowing and interveinal necrosis. There was discoloration in the vascular tissues of the infected stems which turned light brown. Fungal isolates from discolored vascular tissues were whitish to creamy with folding on potato dextrose agar medium, where they used to produce resting dark mycelia but no micro-sclerotia. Conidiophores were septate with side branches, swelled at the base, and arranged in a whorl. Conidia were 2.5-11.2$\times$2.0-4.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$ um in size and were borne in small clusters at the tips of phialides. Optimal temperature range for mycelial growth was $25-30^{\circ}C$. Based on these cultural and morphological characteristics, the fungus was identified as Verticillium albo-atrum Reink & Berth. Pathogenicity tests by root dipping method revealed that the fungus caused the same symptoms as observed in naturally infected potato plants. This is the first report of Verticillium wilt on potato caused by Verticillium albo-atrum in Korea.

The objective of this study was to find in what color Hanji(Korean hand-made paper) is dyed when it is dyed with a pigment extracted from clove tree using different kinds of mordant, and how the paper is discolored and variety of strength under the condition of accelerated aging test. The results of this experiment are as follows. The Hanji dyed with aluminum acetate mordant was colored yellowish brown at pH 4.82, discoloration after aging was as much as a slight difference of color was recognized, and the decrease of strength after aging test was small. Thus, the method using aluminum acetate mordant was usable in coloring Hanji. The second most useful Hanji dyeing moth of was using distilled water and ferrous sulfate mordant, which dyed Hanji light brown at pH 6.03. However, when pigment was extracted using distilled water and copper sulfate mordant was used, discoloration was satisfactory but strength decreased too much and pale brown was obtained. Thus, this method was not usable.

In this paper, the safety diagnosis using thermal image analysis is described for power equipments. The conventional three-phase comparison method has only provided the results of thermal comparison for the equipments. The proposed method defines the conditions of poor connection by visual checks, and supports the criteria with each thermal rise step. As a result, the thermal difference from $5^{\circ}C$ to $10^{\circ}C$ meant the warning state. In addition, the thermal difference more than $10^{\circ}C$ meant that the connection status was unbalanced. In this case, the countermeasure might be the internal load distribution. If the thermal difference more than $20^{\circ}C$ is observed, it means a hot spot at the poor connection. If the hot spot is observed all over the surface, its cause was the unbalanced load, which made the conductive parts discolored and raised the possibility of oxidization or $Cu_2O$ generation. This diagnostic technology employing thermal image analysis method can be directly applied in the field and ensures the safety of equipments.

Physicochemical water conditions and phytoplankton were investigated at Ggot-jee beach in Anmyondo, summer season of 2011. COD were sometimes recorded higher than 5.0mg/l and SS were always over 40mg/l. DO, pH and salinity were stable generally but low salinity was affected by heavy rainfall. In spite of relatively high concentrations of chlorophyll and phytoplankton standing stocks, discolored water phenomena(green or red tide) had not been occurred. A few dinoflagellate species were dominated in June and July, but general diatoms were dominant species of phytoplankton community in August. Escherichia coli concentrations were higher in August(>400CFU/100ml) than in July but it's not the level of hygienic problem.

A case of disseminated lymphoblastic lymphosarcoma is reported in an aborted bovine fetus 7 month in gestation. Grossly, numerous tan firm nodules, 2 to 5 mm in diameter were scattered throughout the myocardium and skeletal muscle. The corticomedullary junction of the kidney was discolored to whitish tinct. Histologically, compact sheet of monomorphic lymphoblastic lymphoid cell infiltration was noted in the myocardium and skeletal muscle. Neoplastic cell infiltration was also noted in the corticomeullary junction and deep cortical regions of the kidney, lung and the liver. This is believed to be the first reported case of lymphosarcoma in an aborted bovine fetus in Korea.

To recover the discoloration of Pyropia yezoensis, additional NO₃^- and PO₄^3- nutrients were supplied to the discolored blades. As a result, the efficiency of photosynthesis was increased from two days after incubation with NO₃^- and five days after incubation with PO₄^3-. In addition, the chromaticity analysis results showed significant changes. Furthermore, the cell vacuoles bloated due to discoloration were reduced again when they were restored from discoloration, suggesting that the control of discoloration is feasible by nutrient supply.

In this study, the effect of various concentrations of antioxidants on thermo-oxidative degradation of polyamide 6 was investigated. Unstabilized and stabilized polyamides 6 were subjected to long-term oven aging in ambient atmosphere at 70~$160^{\circ}C$. All of specimens were discolored within 100 hr at temperature range of 70~$160^{\circ}C$. Optimum antioxidant concentration was determined from the data of mechanical properties, yellowness index and relative viscosity. The synergistic effect of each primary and secondary antioxidant concentrations was not observed. Yellowing phenomenon was explained by using NMR, IR and EA. Different carbonyl groups were detected by $^{13}C$/NMR. During thermooxidative degradation, oxygen consumptions were determined by EA. The lifetime after long-term aging was predicted using Arrhenius equation.

The optimal synthesis condition based on the yield of thiamine mononitrate has been attained according to Box-wilson experimental design. The optimal condition was as follows : Molar concentration ratio of $SB1{\cdot}HCL=0.6839$, quantity of $NH_4NO_3=50.09g$, agitation velocity=51.6rpm, reaction temperature=22.8$^{\circ}C$. The stabilities of three kinds of thiamine monosalts(thiamine monoiodide, -monobromide, -monorhodanate) were investigated in sterile solution, compressed tablet and multivitamin capsule, respectively. Assay data are given to show that thiamine monosalts are not significantly higher than that of thiamine mononitrate in sterile solutions and the addition of an acidic stabilizer is unnecessary. The solutions were clear and free of precipitate and didn't discolored after storage at room temperature and 40$^{\circ}C$ for 6 months. The tablets and capsules were assayed initially and at predetermined intervals during storage at room temperature and 40$^{\circ}C$ for 6 months. Thiamine monorhodanate was found to be more stable than other thiamine monosalts in these compressed tablets containing other vitamin of the B complex and the data indicate that thiamine monosalts was similar to that of thiamine mononitrate in the multivitamine capsules.
