Many of plants had been reported having immunostimulating activity. This study reports the immunostimulating activity of Cassia tora L. (Leguminosae) seed, by means of solvent extraction method. Ethanol extract and solvent fractions, n-hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, n-butanol and aqueous layer of Cassia tora L. seed were tested for immunostimulating activity in vitro. The ethylacetate-soluble fraction caused significant inhibition on the production of nitric oxide by murine macrophages (RAW 264.7), and mouse splenocytes were also stimulated at the concentration of 10 pgfmL. Three anthraquinones, chrysophanol (1), isochrysophanol (2) and aloe-emodin (3) with immunostimulating activity were isolated from the ethylacetate-soluble fraction of Cassia tora L. seed through activity-monitored fractionation and isolation method. These results permit Cassia tora L. to be useful as one the of natural immunostimulating crops.

The effect of tannic acid on GAs and cyclic-AMP promoted amylase induction in barley aleurone layers was examined. Of a variety of adenine compounds, only cyclic-AMP and ADP showed significant activity, and these activities were promoted by addition of theophylline to the incubation medium. When aleurone layers of barley endosperm tissues were incubated with GAs in the presence of tannic acid, the amylase activity in the incubation medium was reduced. Cyclic-AMP induced amylase activity was also reduced by additiion of tannic acid. The cyclic-AMP response promoted was more sensitive to tannin inhibition than GAs response. The inhibitory effect of tannic acid shwoed reversibility by addition of higher concentration of GAs or cyclic-AMP. The tannic acid effect on GAs response was also recovered by addition of a higher concentration of cyclic-AMP. Experiment with polyacrylamide disc electrophoresis showed different isozyme patterns according to the additions in the incubation medium. Inhibitory effects of decursinol and coumarin was compared with that of tannic acid. They showed different zymogram patterns.

노광 후 지연(Post Exposure Delay： PED) 효과는 그림 1과 같이 노광 후 지연 시간에 따른 감광제의 Profile에 thinning, T-top, foot, undercut 를 보여주는 현상으로 화학 증폭형 감광제(Chemically Amplified Resist, CAR) 개발에 있어 PED의 안정성은 중요한 요소이다(1). 따라서 노광후 지연 효과에 대한 모델링은 연구와 개발을 위한 시뮬레이션 tool에 있어 매우 의미 있는 일이다. T-top 이나 undercut 를 형성하는 Surface inhibition layer(SIL) 은 노광 후 지연시 발생되는 environmental base contamination, acid evaporation 이 주요 원인이며 다른 원인으로는 감광제 속에서 acid migration, spin coating 동안에 photoacid generator (PAG)의 고갈, internal basic impurities 이며 그 외에 nonbsic atmospheric contamination, high power laser source의 영향 등이 있다.

Extracts from sawdust of Pinus densiflora were showed antifungal activity against Lentinula edodes. It was extracted by hot water and then successively extracted by n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. The yields of the n-hexane-soluble, ethyl acetatesoluble, methanol-soluble and methanol-insoluble fractions of water extracts were 8.2%, 10.6%, 32.0%, and 49.2%, respectively. The ethyl acetate-soluble fraction showed the greatest antifungal activity against L. edodes: 41.5% inhibition at 1,000 ppm. However, there were not significant differences of antifungal activities between n-hexane-soluble fraction and methanol-soluble fraction at a concentration of 1,000 ppm. The hot water extracts showed 23.5% of antifungal activity against L. edodes at a concentration of 1000 ppm. The four antifungal compounds were separated from ethyl acetate fraction by thin layer chromatography.

The tungsten paste was printed on the surface of 92% alumina sheet which was made by type casting process. The printed tungsten was bonded on the Al2O3 by co-firing in reducing atmosphere. During the co-firing, the binder burn-out was easier in wet H2 atmosphere than in dry H2, which affected sintered density. In practically, the use of wet H2 above 100$0^{\circ}C$ was beneficial for density of alumina and bond strength. This phenomena occured more distinctly when atmosphere varied from dry H2 to wet H2 than varied dew point in wet H2. In wet H2, the improvement in bonding strength can be attributed to good glass migration into the metal layer due to inhibition of the tungsten particle growth, with increase of alumina density, at the temperatrue higher than 100$0^{\circ}C$.

To evaluate anti-aggregatory activity of traditional prescriptions and medicines for treatment of Ohyul symptom, 70% methanol extracts were examined using collagen stimulated in vitro platelet aggregation by impedance method in rat whole blood. The crude extracts from DoHaekSeungKiTang, BoYangHwanOhTang, Caesalpinia sappan, Rhus verniciflua, Rheum palmatum, Polygonum cuspidatum, Salvia miltiorrhiza were found to inhibit platelet aggregation. The effective crude extracts of traditional medicine were fractionated to dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, butanol and aqueous layer. Polygonum cuspidatum, Caesalpinia sappan aud Rhus verniciflua ethyl acetate fractions concentration-dependently $(250-50{\mu}m/ml)$ inhibited the aggregation of platelet in whole blood induced by collagen. These results suggested that ethyl acetate fractions of Polygonum cuspidatum, Caesalpinia sappan and Rhus verniciflua have potent anti-aggregatory activity.

Advanced high strength steels undergo recrystallization annealing in reducing gas atmosphere before galvanizing to improve mechanical properties. The selective oxidations of elements such as Mn, Si, Cr and Al during annealing decrease wettability of liquid zinc, resulting in bare spots and other defects. In this work, Fe-3wt%Mn steel sheet was annealed at $780^{\circ}C$ for 1200 sec. in 5% $H_2-N_2$ atmosphere and then dipped into zinc bath held at $460^{\circ}C$, which contained 0.2wt% dissolved Al. MnO crystallines in the average size of 200 nm were formed on the surface after annealing. It is estimated that MnO has been detached into bath with the formation and growth of inhibition layer with longer immersion time during galvanizing. No evidence of aluminothermic reduction of MnO has been found in this study.

WC/WC interface in VC mono-doped WC-10mass%Co submicro-grained hardmetals of $0.5\;{\mu}m$ was investigated together with WC/Co interface by using HRTEM and XMA. The thickness of V-rich layer and the analytical value of V at WC/WC interface were almost the same as those at WC/Co interfaces. These results, etc., suggested that the V-rich layers at both interfaces were not generated by an equilibrium segregation mechanism in the sintering stage, but generated by a preferential precipitation mechanism during the solidification of Co liquid phase in the cooling stage. Based on this suggestion, we succeeded in developing a nano-grained hardmetal with 100 nm $(0.1\;{\mu}m)$.

Bacillus thuringiensis var. thuringiensis produces an extracellular insecticidal thermostable .betha.-exotoxin, which was purified through microfiltering, barium precipitation, charcoal absorption chromatography, ion exchange column chromatography and gel filtration. The exotoxin in each purification step was detedted by thin layer chromatography, high pressure liquid chromatography and paper electrophoresis with efficient results. The exotoxin productivity on time course was checked by spectrophotometric absorbance at 258nm with the result that the exotoxin was initially produced in 6 hour culture and reached maximum value in 36 hour culture. Anti-bacterial effect test on Micrococcus flava was applied as toxicity test. The results showed that frowth inhibition of M. flava could be shown in plate assay of cell free filtered supernatant, alkaline eluant from charcoal and purified exotosin obtained from gel filtration column chromatography on Sephadex G-10 appeared to be 740. Heat stability of the exotoxin was confirmed through autoclaving twice.

Biogas, composed mainly of methane (CH₄) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), is a renewable gas that can serve as an alternative energy source. In this study, we developed a new microwave reformer and analyzed its reforming characteristics. We observed that higher temperatures of the microwave receptor led to increased reforming efficiency. By supplying appropriate amounts of methane and steam, we could prevent carbon generated from the thermal decomposition reaction of carbon dioxide from depositing on the catalytic active layer, thus avoiding the inhibition of catalytic activity. Hydrogen generation was enhanced when maintaining the biogas ratio and steam supply at adequate levels. Increasing the SiC ratio in the receptor improved the uniformity of temperature distribution and growth rate, resulting in higher conversion rates of the reforming process.
