The study site located in an industrial complex has a Precambrian age gneiss as a bedrock. The poorly-developed, disturbed soils in the study site have loamy-textured surface soil (1 to 2 m) and gravelly sand alluvium subsurface (2 to 6 m) on the top of weathered gneiss bedrock. The depth of the groundwater table was about 3.5 m below ground surface and increased toward down-gradient of the site. The hydraulic conductivity of transmitted zone (gravelly coarse sand) was in the range of 5.0${\times}$10$\^$-2/∼1.85${\times}$10$\^$-1/ cm/sec. The fine sand layer was in the range of 1.5${\times}$10$\^$-3/ to 7.6${\times}$10$\^$-3/ cm/sec. and the reclaimed upper soil layer was less than 10$\^$-4/ cm/sec. Toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (TEX) was the major contaminant in the soil and groundwater. The average depth of the soil contamination was about 1.5 m in the gravelly sand alluvium layer. At the depth interval 2.4∼4.8 m, the highest contamination in the soil is located approximately 50 to 70 m from the suspected source areas. The concentration of TEX in the groundwater was highest in the suspected source area and a lesser concentration in the center and southwest parts of the site. The TEX distribution in the groundwater is associated with their distribution in the soil. Microbial isolation showed that Pseudomonas flurescence, Burkholderia cepacia, and Acinetobactor lwoffi were the dominant aerobic bacteria in the contaminated soils. The analytical results of the groundwater indicated that the concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate, and sulfate in the contaminated area were significantly lower than their concentrations in the none-contaminated control area. The results also indicated that groundwater at the contaminated area is under anaerobic condition and sulfate reduction is the predominant terminal electron accepting process. The total attenuation rate was 0.0017 day$\^$-1/ and the estimated first-order degradation rate constant (λ) was 0.0008 day$\^$-1/.

After investigation of soil characteristics the properties of a reclaimed marine soil (Gupo series) distributed along the southern coastal areas of Korea are summarized as follows: 1. Gupo soils distributed in the southern Ria coastal area are derived from rolling to hilly materials and are poorly sorted with less influences of river fluvial action. These soils have high content of sand compared with the broad fluvio-marine soils in the western coastal areas. 2. The morphological features of the poorly drained Gupo soils are greyish brown sandy loam with a few yellowish mottles in the surface horizon and are grey sandy loam with a few gravel in the sub-strata. The ground water table remains around 10-30cm below the surface. These soils, recently reclaimed younger deposits, do not show any evidence of illuviation. 3. The "n" value (about 0.8) of the Gupo soils indicates physically unripened soils. 4. pH value of these soils shows more than 8.0 throughout the profile. Organic matter contents are extremely low (around 0.5%) except 1.2 percent in the surface horizon. C.E.C. ranges from 7 to 9m.e/100g which is lower than average in the country. The ratios of extractable cations such as Ca, Mg, Na and K of the surface horizon are 20:7:4:1. Base saturation is more than 60%. Available phosphate content is very low that is less than 25 ppm. Electric conductivity of the soils at $25^{\circ}C$ ranges 7 to 12 mmhos/cm and increased with depth. 5. According to classification of soil based on physical ripening, the Gupo soils can be classified into "Unripe soils with half-ripe sub-soils". The soils could be classified into "Hydric Haplaquents" in the original of the 7th Approximation (1960), but into "Typic Haplaqents in the supplement of 7th approximation which the physical ripening condition is not clearly expressed. Soil Taxonomy, apparently the final version of the 7th approximation, defines the soils as "Haplic Hydraquents" that clearly show the condition of physical ripening as well as other properties. Other several classification systems applied do not describe physical ripening condition of the soils.

When the nomal silkworms reached active time of 3rd instar stage both non-moulting larva and normal silkworms from the same rearing tray were collected and fixed. The silkworms in 4th instar stage whose growth was as dwarfish as those in 1st and 2nd instar stages were also collected and fix with the normal silkworms. Non-moulting larva and normal silkworms were morphologically compared and the examined results from the tissue inspection are summarized as follows： 1. In spite of the fact that the normal silkworms reached the active eating time of 3rd instar stage non-moulting silkworms were dwarfish as if they had been reared for two days. Non-moulting silkworms which were observed at the time of 4th instar stage showed no much difference in their growth. 2. There was the tendency that the exuvial gland as was shown in Fig. 1 and 2 was flat cyslidium of ellipse and its size at thorax was small shile the gland at abdomen was big. 3. The exuvial gland at thorax has been reported to be bigger at thoracic base than at dorsal vessel but according to the present it was examined to be irregular. 4. The size of exuvial gland of silkworms in the active eating stage of 3rd instar was from 151.3${\mu}$ (major axis) to 94.5${\mu}$ (minor axis) at prothorax and from 568.6${\mu}$ (major axis) to 495.1${\mu}$ (minor axis) at 7th abdominal segment. The sire oe exuvial gland of non-moulting silkworm was 57.5${\mu}$ (major axis) to 51.3${\mu}$ (minor axis) at prothorax and from 91.5${\mu}$ (major axis) to 75.5${\mu}$ (minor axis) at 5th abdominal segment (see Fig. 1) 5. When the normal silkworms reached 4th instar active eating stage its exuvial gland was compared to that of dwarfish silkworm. The result was that the size of normal silkworm at prothorax was from 252.2${\mu}$ (major axis) to 131.6${\mu}$ (minor axis) and the size of exuvial gland at 7th abdominal segment was from 691.5${\mu}$ (major axis) to 493.4${\mu}$ (minor axis) while the sire of exuvial gland of non-moulting at prothorax was from 71.4${\mu}$ (major axis) to 61.5${\mu}$ (minor axis) and the size of the non-moulting silkworm's 8th abdominal segment was from 94.6${\mu}$ (major axis) to 71.5${\mu}$ (minor axis) (See Table 2) 6. There was a remarkable difference in the from of exuvial gland of non-moulting silkworm. The size of alveolar of the non-moulting silkworm was many times larger compared to that of normal silkworm 7. There was no great difference between secretory cells of normal and non-moulting silkworms but the granular type exuvial gland was small in sire compared to that of normal silkworm.

Some ceramic artifacts representing time-wise from comb pattern pottery in the Neolithic Age to white porcelain in Joseon Dynasty were selected from 7 sites in the north and south area of Charyeong Mountain Range in order to making techniques interpretation and development process of ancient ceramics through physicochemical and mineralogical quantitative analysis. Studied pottery samples in the Prehistoric times showed trace of ring piling in soft-type, and pottery in the Three Kingdoms Period had both soft and hard-type but kettle-ware and storage-ware were made with ring piling, but table-ware was made by wheel spinning. Different from pottery after the Three Kingdom Period when refinement of source clay was high, pottery in the Neolithic Age and in the Bronze Age exhibited highly mineral content in sandy source clay, which showed a lot of larger temper than source clay. Groundmass of celadon and white porcelain almost did not reveal primary minerals but had high content of minerals by high temperature firing. Ceramic samples showed some different in major and minor elements according to sites irrespective of times. Geochemical behaviors are very similar indicating similar basic characteristics of source clay. However, loss-on-ignition showed 0.01 to 12.59wt.% range with a large deviation but it rapidly decreased moving from the Prehistoric times to the Three Kingdom Period. They have correlation with the weight loss due to firings, according to burning degree of source clay and detection of high temperature minerals, estimated firing temperatures are classified into 5 groups. Pottery in the Neolithic Age and in the Bronze Age belongs from 750 to $850^{\circ}C$ group; pottery in the Three Kingdom Period are variously found in 750 to $1,100^{\circ}C$ range of firing temperature; and it is believed celadon and white porcelain were baked in high temperature of 1,150 to $1,250^{\circ}C$. It seems difference between refinement of source clay and firing temperature based on production times resulted from change in raw material supply and firing method pursuant to development of production skill. However, there was difference in production methods even at the same period and it is thought that they were utilized according to use purpose and needs instead of evolved development simply to one direction.

Purpose: We are trying to analyze 130 patients' conditions by using our Helical Tomotherapy, which was installed in our center in Oct. 2007. We will be statistically approach this examination and analyze so that we will be able to figure out adaptive plans according to the change in place of the tumor, GTV (gross tumor volume), total amount of time it took, vector (${\upsilon}=\surd$x2+y2+z2) and the change in size of the tumor. Materials and Methods: Objectives were the patients who were medicated with Tomotherapy in our medical center since Oct. 2007 August 2008. The Average age of the patients were 53 years old (Minimum 25 years old, Maximum 83 years old). The parts of the body we operated were could be categorized as Head&neck (n=22), Chest (n=47), Abdomen (n=25), Pelvis (n=11), Bone (n=25). MVCT had acted on 2702 times, and also had acted on our adaptive plan toward patients who showed big difference in the size of tumor. Also, after equalizing our gained MVCT and kv-CT we checked up on the range of possible mistake, using x, y, z, roll and vector. We've also investigated on Set-up, MVCT, average time of operation and target volume. Results: Mean time on table was 22.8 minutes. Mean treatment time was 13.26 minutes. Mean correction (mm) was X=-0.7, Y=-1.4, Z=5.77, roll=0.29, vector=8.66 Head&neck patients had 2.96 mm less vector value in movement than patients of Chest, Abdomen, Bone. In increasing order, Head&neck, Bone, Abdomen, Chest, Pelvis showed the vector value in movement. Also, there were 27 patients for adaptive plan, 39 patients, who had long or multiple tumor. We could know that When medical treatment is one cure plan, it takes 32 minutes, and when medical treatment is two cure plan, it takes 40 minutes that one medical treatment takes 21 minutes, and the other medical treatment takes 19 minutes. Conclusion:With our basic tools, we could bring more accurate IMRT with MVCT. Also, through our daily image, we checked up on the change in tumor so that adaptive plan could work. It was made it possible to take the cure of long or multiple tumor, the cure in a nearby OAR, and the complicated cure that should make changes of gradient dose distribution.

In this study, microbial investigation is accomplished for 554 Jeot-kal samples(102 of Jeot-kal, 448 of Seasoned Jeot-kal and 4 of Sik-khe, respectively) that corresponds with Coliform-bacteria, Escherichia coli, Aerobic live bacteria as hygienic indicator microorganisms, and Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio parahaemolyticus as Food-borne pathogenic microorganisms, Based on the methods in Korea Food Code, reliable data are obtained as follows; in 31.9% rate of the samples, Coliform bacteria are verified in the extent of $0{\sim}20,000$ CFU/g as 2.3 logCFU/g. Especially, Seasoned Jeot-kal(37.7%,2.3 logCFU/g) are detected to 6 and 2 folds higher than those of Jeot-kal, 5.9% and 1.4 logCFU/g. Likewise, Escherichia coli is detected from 9 samples only in Seasoned Jeot-kal, that includes seasoned squid, seasoned octopus, seasoned roe of pollack, seasoned large-eyed herring and seasoned hairtail. Aerobic live bacteria are also detected in the range of $0{\sim}8.9{\times}10^8CFU/g$. Against salinity, E. coli are detected in samples only less than 10% salinity. Concomitantly, aerobic live bacteria count is decreased to $5.5{\sim}3.6$ log CFU/g upon the salinity is increased up to 25%. However, S. aureus and V. parahaemolyticus are not detected in 554 samples, presumptively referring Jeot-kal products are somehow free from such food-borne pathogens. As the results above, we deliberately consider that the sanitary control in Jeot-kal, which be necessarily fermented- as well as non-microbially inactivated should be ensured in near future and also suggest an effectual microbial standard corresponding to the Negativity in E. coli for Jeot-kal products.

The authors identified fifty-eight Shigella cultures among 1644 cultures and specimens of enteric pathogens collected from all over the country in 1973. Fifty-one out of fifty-eight cultures belonged to Shigella flexneri and the rest to Shigella sonnei. None of cultures belonging to either subgroup A or C was detected in 1973. Of fifty-one cultures of Shigella flexneri twenty-six cultures were $B_{2a}$, which were isolated in Seoul area and Kwangwon-Do. The rest were $B_{3a}$ which were isolated in Jeonla-bug-Do and Kangwon-Do. It would not be possible to understand that there might not have been the cases or carriers of Shigella in the areas where the organisms were not isolated in 1973 and that there might not have been any other serotypes existing in the country, although there was a quite disparity found in the distribution between different areas and in the detection of the serotypes as shown in Table 1. Concerning the biochemical properties there were only two cultures showing positive arginine decarboxylase test among $B_{2a}$, and there were three cultures of trehalose negative cultures, one of rhamnose positive culture and one of glycerol positive culture observed, which were considered to be unusual. All the Shigella cultures were sensitive to nitrofurantoin, cephalosporin and ampicillin, and resistant to colistin, bacitracin and neomycin. Majority of them showed sensitive results to gentamycin, and the majority of Shigella $B_{3a}$ appeared to be sensitive to chloramphenicol, tetracycline, oxytetracycline and doxycycline, but the majority of $B_{2a}$ and Shigella sonnei were observed resistant to those antibiotics by means of the In-Vitro tests.

The edible portion of chestnut, Castenea crenata Sieb, et Zucc, were freeze-dried and subjected to analysis of minerals, lipid classes and fatty acid composition by silicic acid column chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography. The results of analysis for the minerals in chestnut showed that the contents of magnesium, iron and phosphorus were decreased during storage after freeze-drying. The contents of neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids in the raw edible portion were 34.6, 38.6, and 26.8%, respectively. The contents of neutral lipids and phospholipids of the freeze-dried chestnut were decreased, while glycolipids were increased during storage. In the fatty acid composition of total lipid, $C_{16:0}$, $C_{18:2}$ and $C_{18:3}$ acid were abundant in the raw edible portion, but freeze-dried chestnut contained relatively much amount of $C_{16:0}$, $C_{18:1}$, and $C_{18:2}$ acid. It is noticeable that $C_{18:2}$ and $C_{18:3}$ acid in the freeze-dried chestnut were remarkably decreased during storage. Upon the fatty acid composition, total lipid contained $C_{18:2}$ and $C_{16:0}$ acid in the highest proportion, but neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids contained $C_{16:0}$ and $C_{18:2}$ acid in the highest proportion. Cycloartenol (20.6%) was a major component in the 4-monomethylsterol fraction separated by thin layer chromatography and cyclolaudenol, cycloeucalenol, and citrostadienol were detected as minor components. Sitosterol (74.6%) was a major component in the 4-desmethylsterol fraction separated by thin-layer chromatography and ${\Delta}^5-avensterol$, campesterol, stigmasterol and brassicasterol were also detected as minor components.

The authors studied obsession, using Derogatis'SCL-90, and lie tendency using MMPI, in the subjects of 2586 male and 1206 female college freshmen of Yeungnam University. The authors collected the reports of self-rating Obsession scale and Lie scale during the periods from January to February, 1988, and applied ANOVA and t-test on obsession and lie scores in order to compare than between various psychosocial factors, and sexes. The results as follows: 1. There was not significant difference in the mean average of total obsession scores between male and female students: male students scored $10.26{\pm}5.21$, female students scored $10.54{\pm}5.01$. 2. High scored items were doubting, indecisiveness, inattention, obsessive thoughts and preoccupation with accuracy. 3. 37 male students(1.4%) showed high obsession scores of 25 or higher, while 9 female students(0.7%) showed thd same scores. 4. There was strong tendency toward higher obsession scores in the students who were dissatisfied with their home atmosphere, college, department and familiarity of parents and those who had pessimistic view of self in the past, present or future in both group(respectively P<0.001). The male students who attended the department of fine arts, who grew at the Up & whose educational fees were paid by brothers & sisters showed higher level of obsession scores(respectively P<0.05, P<0.05, P<0.01). The female students who grew at the Myun & who were self-cook showed higher level of obsession scores(respectively P<0.05). 5. There was not significant difference in the mean averages of total lie scores between male and female students: male students scored $4.73{\pm}2.49$, female students scored $4.70{\pm}2.16$. 6. High scored items were NO. 14, 8, 11, 9 and 1 in the table 6. 7. 98 male students(3.7%) showed high lie scores of 70 or high, while 27 female students(2.2%) showed the same scores. 8. There was strong tendency toward higher lie scores in the students who were satisfied with their home atmosphere, college, department and familiarity of parents and those who had optimistic view of self in the past, present or future in both group(respectively P<0.001). The students who attended the department of pharmacy, music, evening programs showed higher level of lie scores(P<0.05).

To suggest a thermal diffusivity predicting equation for mixed meat products, heat penetration curves of pork products containing filefish meat were plotted in the temperature range of $80.44{\sim}121.03^{\circ}C$, and thermal diffusivities were calculated from the heat penetration curves. The ground pork was mixed with minced filefish meat and some additives such as lard, isolated soy protein, $1.5\%$ of table salt and $2\%$ of polyphosphate to control the composition and texture of products, and then stuffed into a model can. The heat penetration curves were plotted using a thermocouple fixed at the slowest heating point of the can. At constant heating temperature, the thermal diffusivities of the products increased linearly with increasing moisture content. The values of the products with constant moisture content also increased linearly with increasing heating temperature. The thermal diffusivities of the products with moisture content of $51.47{\sim}80.20\%$ could be predicted by following equation: $${\alpha}_p=(3.045+0.59{\cdot}X_w){\cdot}{\alpha}_w+0.0098{\cdot}10^{-6}{\cdot}X_w-0.4287{\cdot}10^{-6},(m^2{\cdot}s^{-1})$$ Maximal differences of the thermal diffusivities predicted with this equation were in the range of ${\pm}0.8\%$ compared with the practical values. This equation and another predicting equation obtained from the previous study for the pork product without fish meat could be simplified as following one equation, and the maximal differences of the thermal diffusivities predicted with this equation for both products with and without fish meat were in the range of less than ${\pm}2.5\%$ $${\alpha}_p=(2.290+0.54{\cdot}X_w){\cdot}{\alpha}_w+0.0024{\cdot}10^{-6}{\cdot}X_w-0.3535{\cdot}10^{-6},(m^2{\cdot}s^{-1})$$
