Total carbohydrates of Kumquats was 14.69% Kumquats, Citrus natsudaidai, and C. platgmama contained 18.3, 11.1 and 13.0%, of soluble solids, and 42.39, 32.09 and 20.13mg/100g, of vitamin C, respectively. Acid contents of C. natsudaidai and C. plafmama harvested on March 1995 in south Cheju were 2.52% and 0.89% . In preparing of Kumquats-tea, combination of 50% honey and sugar, 5% oligo-sugar, 32% Kumquats slice, 13% juice of C. natsudaidai were the best recipe for sensory evaluation. In C. natsudaidai-tea, combination of 5∼10% peel slice treated at 90$^{\circ}C$ for 1min, 50∼60% concentration of sugar and 35∼40% of flesh of C. natsudaidai were good. for sensory evaluation. Microbial growth was not observed in the sterilized products for more than one month at 30$^{\circ}C$.

We have measured the wavelengths of the absorption lines of the $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$molecule by using a wavelength meter calibrated against the national optical frequency standard (iodine Stabilized He-Ne Laser, KRISS-R701) in the visible wavelength region. To measure the absolute wavelengths of the absorption lines, the frequency of the laser has been stabilized in the peaks and the sides of the absorption lines of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$. Also, we have proposed the development of a frequency standard source of ITU-T grid using stabilization in the sides of the absorption lines of $^{13}$ C$_2$H$_2$.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the change in signal sensitivity over different acquisition start times and optimize the scanning window to provide the maximal signal sensitivity of [1-¹³C]pyruvate and its metabolic products, lactate and alanine, using spatially localized hyperpolarized 3D ¹³C magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI). Materials and Methods: We acquired 3D ¹³C MRSI data from the brain (n = 3), kidney (n = 3), and liver (n = 3) of rats using a 3T clinical scanner and a custom RF coil after the injection of hyperpolarized [1-¹³C]pyruvate. For each organ, we obtained three consecutive 3D ¹³C MRSI datasets with different acquisition start times per animal from a total of three animals. The mean signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of pyruvate, lactate, and alanine were calculated and compared between different acquisition start times. Based on the SNRs of lactate and alanine, we identified the optimal acquisition start timing for each organ. Results: For the brain, the acquisition start time of 18 s provided the highest mean SNR of lactate. At 18 s, however, the lactate signal predominantly originated from not the brain, but the blood vessels; therefore, the acquisition start time of 22 s was recommended for 3D ¹³C MRSI of the rat brain. For the kidney, all three metabolites demonstrated the highest mean SNR at the acquisition start time of 32 s. Similarly, the acquisition start time of 22 s provided the highest SNRs for all three metabolites in the liver. Conclusion: In this study, the acquisition start timing was optimized in an attempt to maximize metabolic signals in hyperpolarized 3D ¹³C MRSI examination with [1-¹³C] pyruvate as a substrate. We investigated the changes in metabolic signal sensitivity in the brain, kidney, and liver of rats to establish the optimal acquisition start time for each organ. We expect the results from this study to be of help in future studies.

A method is presented for calculating the $^{13}C$ chemical shifts produced in liquid solution by referenced relative to RF frequency. The method is useful to get the real variations of chemical shifts in magnetic field by eliminating the affects of the variation of a reference substance.

HSP104 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is known to provide thermotolerance when induced by various kinds of stresses, such as a mild heat shock, ethanol, and hypoxia. It helps cells survive at an otherwise lethal temperature. Mechanisms by which HSP104 protein works are yet to be elucidated. In order to understand a molecular basis of thermotolerance due to HSP104 protein induced by a mild heat shock, studies on respiratory pathways were carried out in the wild type as well as in the hsp104 deleted mutant. Especially the degree of 13C-acetate incorporation into glutamate-C4 was examined for both strains using 13C-13C homonuclear spin coupling measurements, since glutamate is in a rapid equilibrium with α-ketoglutarate in the TCA cycle. In addition, the temperature effects on the rate of 13C incorporation are compared with or without HSP104 protein expressed. Finally, the inhibitory effect of HSP104 on the respiration pathway was confirmed by the measurements of oxygen consumption rates for both strains.

To investigate the formation of the chromophoric structures taking place during the alkaline pulping vanillyl alcohol [${\alpha}-^{13}C$] guaiacylglycerol-${\beta}$-aryl ether [${\alpha}-^{13}C$ or ${\gamma}-^{13}C$] and phenylcoumarn [${\alpha}-^{13}C$] units as model lignins were treated with 1N sodium hydroxide at 165$^{\circ}C$ for 1.5-3 hours. From the chemical structures of the isolated products and $^{13}C$-NMR Spectra of the reaction mixtures, the main conclusion is as follows; 1) Condensation products of II-1-5 were identified from the reaction mixture of vanillyl alcohol treated with alkali and theses compounds afforded the quinonmethide structure(Fig. 3-7) by air oxidation. 2) Treatment of guaiacylglycerol-${\beta}$-aryl ether unit gave ${\varphi}$-aryl-${\beta}$-aroxy quinone structures (IV-15, IV-16), diguaiacyl-1, 4-penta-diene ${\beta}$, ${\beta}$'-diaroxyl distyrene methane unit, ${\beta}$-aroxy distyrene methane. These distyrene methanes of the compounds are transformed by air oxidation into the corresponding o-quinonemethide units (V-8, V-9). 3) On the treatment of phenylcoumaran, the stilbene derivative was formed in quantitative yield and dimerized(VI-11) in preference to oxidation to the corresponding extended quinone structures. The chromophoric structures taken place during the alkaline treatment of the model lignins are thought to be some important types in alkaline pulping on the basis of the reaction mechanism in this experiment.

Carbon isotope ratio ($^{13}C/^{12}C$, expressed as ${\delta}^{13}C$) of tree ring can be proxy of atmospheric $CO_2$ concentration ([$CO_2$]) due to the inter-correlation between atmospheric [$CO_2$], ${\delta}^{13}C$ of atmospheric $CO_2$, and ${\delta}^{13}C$ of plant tissue that assimilates atmospheric $CO_2$. This study was conducted to investigate if ${\delta}^{13}C$ of tree ring of Pinus densiflora in polluted area may show a lower value than that in unpolluted area and to explore the possibility of reconstructing atmospheric [$CO_2$] using its relationship with ${\delta}^{13}C$ of tree ring. During the period between 1999 and 2005, ${\delta}^{13}C$ of tree annual ring tended to decrease over time, and the ${\delta}^{13}C$ in polluted area (-27.2‰ in 2009 to -28.3‰ in 2005) was significantly (P<0.001) lower than that (-26.0‰ in 1999 to -27.1‰ in 2005) in unpolluted area. This reflects a greater emission of $CO_2$ depleted in $^{13}C$ in the polluted area. Atmospheric [$CO_2$] was significantly (P<0.01) correlated with ${\delta}^{13}C$ of tree ring in a linear fashion. Using the linear regression equation, atmospheric [$CO_2$] in the polluted area was estimated to range from 392.3 ppm in 1999 to 410.9 ppm in 2005, and these values were consistently higher than the national atmospheric [$CO_2$] monitored at the Anmyoundo meteorological station (from 370.7 ppm in 1999 to 387.2 ppm in 2005). Our study suggested that it is possible to reconstruct atmospheric [$CO_2$] in a certain area using the relationship between tree ring ${\delta}^{13}C$ and atmospheric [$CO_2$].

2004년 7월부터 2005년 2월까지 8개월 동안 강원도 정선지역 탄산염지대 지하수 및 하천수의 ${\delta}^{13}C$의 조사 결과, 탄산염 지대 지하수의 13C는 $-12.07{\sim}-8.63$ (평균 -10.34 ), 탄사염지대 하천수의 ${\delta}^{13}C$는 $-10.32{\sim}-6.80$ (평균 -7.944 ) 이었다. 하천수와 지하수 ${\delta}^{13}C$는 수온(T)과 음의 상관관계를 보이고 물의 전기전도도(EC)와 양의 상관관계를 보이며, 여름보다 겨울에 높은 값을 보이는 반면 산화환원 전위(Eh), 용존산소(DO), pH와는 상관관계가 미약함을 보이고 있다. 탄산염지대 지하수 및 하천수의 ${\delta}^{13}C$는 연구지역의 지하수와 하천수가 탄산염암의 용해, 대기 $CO_2$와 용존 $CO_2$의 교환, 유입된 대기 $CO_2$가 물 분자와 반응하여 ${HCO_3}^-$ 이온으로 전환될 때 있는 분별작용의 효과에 의해 주로 영향을 받았으며 수중생물의 신진대사에 의한 변화는 미미한 것으로 나타났다.
