Polymer separations are used to obtain information on molecular distributions (molecular-weight distribution, chemical-composition distribution, functionality-type distribution, etc.). The existing methods, such as size-exclusion chromatography are reliable, but imperfect. New methods and improvements to existing methods are being studied and some of the results will be discussed. In addition, comprehensive two-dimensional liquid chromatography allows the complete characterization of two mutually dependent distributions. LCxSEC chromatograms provide a very good qualitative impression of the distributions, but calibration is not straightforward. Finally, progress in mass spectrometry allows much better information to be obtained.

We are reporting a case of esophageal hemangioma, which is a very rare disease with only 24 cases having been reported. A 31-year-old male with dysphagia was shown to have a hemangioma of the upper thoracic esophagus and resection of the lesion cured this problem. Once diagnosed in symptomatic patient, treatment should be instituted because of followings; 1. growth potency to large size, 2. possible complications such as hemorrhage and obstruction, and 3. exclusion diagnosis of malignancy. Surgery is the treatment of choice due to its effectiveness and safety, but endoscopic removal may be possible for small tumors and those on a pedicle.

Spontaneous esophageal perforation occurred rarely but often lead to a high mortality and morbidity. We had experienced one case of spontaneous rupture of esophagus. A 52 - year old male patient was admitted to our hospital because of the chest pain and massive hematemesis after emetic strain. Esophagogram that taken at private clinic revealed leakage of dye into the right pleural space. Under the diagnosis of the thoracic esophageal perforation, two stage operation was planned because the size of perforation was large and pyothorax was developed on the right side. At first, exclusion and diversion of the esophagus were carried out. After six months, the esophageal reconstruction with left colon was performed.

Two chitosanses produced by Aspergillus fumigatus KB-1 were purified by ion exchange and size exclusion chromatographies. Molecular weights of chitosanses were 111.23 KDa (chitosanase I) and 23.38 KDa (chitosanase II). The N-terminal amino acid sequence of chitosanase II was determined: YNLPNNLKQIYDKHKGKXSXVLAK(\ulcorner)GFTN. The optimum pH of the chitosanase I and II were 6.5 and 5.5 respectively. The optimum temperatures were $60^\times$C and $70^\times$. Two chitosanases were most stable at $10^\times$C. (omitted)

Objectives : The aims of this paper were to develop the composite deprivation index (CDI) for the sub-district (Eup-Myen-Dong) levels based on the theory of social exclusion and to explore the relationship between the CDI and the standardized mortality ratio (SMR). Methods : The paper calculated the age adjusted SMR and we included five dimensions of social exclusion for CDI; unemployment, poverty, housing, labor and social network. The proxy variables of the five dimensions were the proportion of unemployed males, the percent of recipients receiving National Basic Livelihood Security Act benefits, the proportion of households under the minimum housing standard, the proportion of people with a low social class and the proportion of single-parent household. All the variables were standardized using geometric transformation and then we summed up them for a single index. The paper utilized the 2004-2006 National Death Registry data, the 2003-2006 national residents' registration data, the 2005 Population Census data and the 2005-2006 means-tested benefit recipients' data. Results : The figures were 115.6, 105.8 and 105.1 for the CDI of metropolitan areas (big cities), middle size cities and rural areas, respectively. The distributional variation of the CDI was the highest in metropolitan areas (8.9 - 353.7) and the lowest was in the rural areas (26.8 - 209.7). The extent and relative differences of deprivation increased with urbanization. Compared to the Townsend and Carstairs index, the CDI better represented the characteristics of rural deprivation. The correlation with the SMR was statistically significant and the direction of the CDI effects on the SMR was in accordance with that of the previous studies. Conclusions : The study findings indicated mortality inequalities due to the difference in the CDI. Despite the attempt to improve deprivation measures, further research is warranted for the consensus development of a deprivation index.

막의 특성을 이용하여 기질과 효소가 공존하는 캡슐을 제조하여 이 캡슐의 장점인 membrane의 pore size를 조절하면 올리고당을 분자량별로 유출시키는 것이 가능해짐으로 기질과 효소의 유출을 조절하여 생리활성이 높은 올리거당을 얻고, 생산된 올리고당의 단순한 분리.정제를 위하여, 그리고 효소의 재 이용 측면에서 encapsulation technology를 이용하여 올리고당을 생산하는 연구를 하였다. 제조된 capsule의 막 두께와 직경은 Olympus IX50 microscope를 이용하여 측정한 결과 막의 두께는 10 $\mu$m이었으며, capsule의 크기는 대략 3.0mm, $N_2$ gas를 이용할 capsule은 대fir 1.5 mm였다. 본 실험에 사용된 기질의 용액, 효소액, 반응액, alginate 용액을 pH 5.0으로 제조하여 사용하였기 때문에 막이 보다 견고하게 형성 할 수 있었으며, 제조된 capsule를 반응 용액 즉 2% acetic acid의 pH를 CaCO$_3$로 조절한 용액에 넣었기 때문에 막이 단단하게 형성되고 유지되는 것으로 판단된다. 기질의 사용에 있어서 작은 분자량을 갖는 기질은 효소와 분해 반응에 있어서 가수분해가 빨리 일어나기 때문에 보통 capsule 밖으로 유출된 올리고당의 분자량은 평균 M.W. 1,000이었다. 그러나 분자량이 큰 기질을 사용하였을 경우 평균 M.W. 1,000-3,500이었다. 막을 이루는 alginate의 점도에 의한 차이는 없었으며, 교반 속도에 의한 기질과 효소의 유출, 그리고 분해 반응에 따른 가수분해 산물인 올리고당의 유출에 있어 alginate 농도 0.5%, 교반 속도는 40 rpm이 가장 적당하였다. (12). Capsule에서 분해 반응 후 분해 산물인 올리고당의 이동을 빨리 하기 위하여 작은 size의 capsule를 제조하여 실험한 결과 3.0 mm보다 capsule 내부의 분자량 변화가 더 빨랐으며, capsule 밖으로 유출된 올리고당의 분자량 분석 결과 M.W. 3000-6000의 올리고당이 생성되었다. 반응 시간에 따른 capsule 내부의 잔류 효소 활성을 조사한 결과, 반응 8시간째에도 약 80% 이상의 효소활성을 나타내었다. Batch-type과 비교하여 capsule의 경우에는 반응이 끝난 후 capsule를 회수하여 효소를 재 사용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The hpa gene genetically linked to the ctxa2b gene was cloned into the pTED expression vector, and the constructed pTEDhpa/ctxa2b was transformed into Excherichia coli. The fusion protein, the adhesin fused to the cholera toxin subunit A2B (CTXA2B) subunit, was expressed to high levels as inclusion bodies in E. coli. The expressed protein was partially purified by washing the inclusion bodies with working solution containing 8M Urea and 0.1M DTT. Refolding of denatured fusion protein was carried out in the presence of glutathione redox buffer. The refolded fusion protein was purified by size exclusion chromatography. The expressed fusion protein was verified by SDS-PAGE, western blotting with antibodies to both antigenic components of adhesin and cholera toxin subunit B (CTXB), and its N-terminal amino acid sequence was analyzed. The orderly assembled fusion protein was confirmed by modified Gm1-ganglioside ELISA with Abs to adhesin. The results indicate that the purified fusion protein is an Adhesin/CTXA2B protein containing the H. pylori adhesin and $G_{m1}4-ganglioside binding activity of CTXB and the expressed fusion protein in E. coli could be easily purified by the refolding process, Its molecular weight was 168kDa as estimated by size exclusion chromatography. The Adhesin/CTXA2B protein may be used as a candidate antigen for oral immunization against H. pylori.

본 연구에서는 동적광산란법을 이용하여 아밀로즈 함량과 용매 조건에 따른 전분 분자 구조 변화를 규명하였다. 분자량이 다른 여러 가지 덱스트란 표준물질을 이용하여 동적광산란법의 정확성을 검증하였으며, 이를 전분에 적용해본 결과 아밀로즈 함량에 따른 전분 분자의 $D_h$ 변화를 규명할 수 있었고 아밀로즈 함량이 높아질수록 전분 분자의 $D_h$ 값이 증가하였다. 또한, 용매 조건에 따른 전분 분자의 $D_h$ 변화를 동적광산란법으로 규명할 수 있었으며, NaCl의 경우 농도가 높아질수록 아밀로펙틴의 $D_h$가 증가했지만, 아밀로즈의 $D_h$는 urea에 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 생각된다. 1-Butanol의 경우 전분 분자의 $D_h$를 증가시켰지만 주목할 만한 경향은 관찰하지 못하였다. 또한, 전분의 아밀로즈 함량과 전분 분자의 $D_h$는 유의적인 상관관계를 보였으며, 이를 활용할 경우 전분의 아밀로즈 함량을 예측하는 데 도움이 될 수 있을 것이라고 기대한다.

The single-modal Weibull model has been assessed on Tyranno ZMI Si-Zr-C-O fiber if a set of shape and scale parameters accurately reproduced the effect of the size of the diameter on strength. The tensile data of a single fiber have been divided into two expedient groups as 'small diameter' group and 'large diameter' group in deriving the parameters, which should be consistent if the Weibull model accurately reproduced the size effect. However, the derived Weibull parameters were inconsistent between the two groups. Thereby the authors have concluded that the parameters of the single-modal Weibull model are dependent on the fiber diameter, so that the model is inadequate to reproduce the strength size effect. On the other hand, Weibull parameters were found consistent between the two groups by excluding the data of 'large mirror zone' sample, which was defined as the sample around 10% mirror zone area of the fracture surface. What is more, the exclusion reduced the strength variance more drastically in the 'large diameter' group than in the 'small diameter' group, even though the 'large mirror zone' samples were found identical in the percentage between the two groups. The authors therefore conclude that diameter limitation to the 'small diameter' group level can lead to drastically less distributed strength values than the estimated strength through the Weibull scaling on the present Tyranno ZMI Si-Zr-C-O fiber.

It has been hypothesized that efficient exclusion of methylated retrotransposons and repeated DNA region is one of the rapid and cost-effective approaches for comprehensive gene discovery in large genome size of maize. Three kinds of methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes, HapII, MspI and McrBC, were used to identify the restriction frequency of cytosine methylation sites in maize genome. Roughly 60% of total maize genomic DNA was restricted less than 500bp by McrBC, and the most of restricted small size fraction was composed retrotransposon. In order to validate the efficient construction of gene-rich shotgun library, we compare two gene-rich methyl-filtration shotgun libraries using in vivo and in vitro methyl-filtration system. The size selected DNA fraction by Sau3A-McrBC enzyme treated was very stable and has not appeared modification in E. coli, but most insert DNA size of partially digested with Sau3A were decrease less than 500bp by bacterial methylation-modification system. In compare of retroelements portion, A 44.6% of the sequences were retroelement in unmethyl-filtered library, and the most of them was Copia type, such as Prem, Opie and Ji. The portion of retroelement was drastically decreased to 25% and 20% by in vivo and in vitro filtration system, respectively.
