As the bromination method with $Br_2^{82}$ for the synthesis of 5-bromouracil-$Br^{82}$ gave products with considerable impurities, e. g. uracil etc. an attempt to produce pure one by isotopic exchange method was performed. Bromide-82 ion such as $NH_4Br^{82}$ or $HBr^{82}$ undergoes no isotopic exchange with 5-bromouracil-Br. However, isotopic exchange between $NH_4Br^{82}$ and $Br_2$, and between $Br_2^{82}$ and 5-bromouracil-Br were too fast to determine the rate. The result indicated that this method can be used in the production of pure 5-bromouracil-$Br^{82}$. It was also found that the use of reducing agent to maintain $Br^{82}$ as bromide form was unnecessary on $NH_4Br^{82}$ production from reactor.

This experiment was conducted to study the relation between the equilibrium moisture contents and the hygroscopic components in the various tobacco matters such as NC-82, Br-21, R.T.S., and puffed stem. The order of the high equilibrium moisture contents was the puffed stem, R.T.S., NC-82, and Br-21. The H-1 grades of NC-82 and Br-21 contained high contents of total sugar had higher equilibrium moisture contents than others. The moisture contents in NC-82 and Br-21 were increased at higher temperature, $30^{\circ}C$ than $20^{\circ}C$. The grades with high amounts of water extracts and total sugar affected to increase the equilibrium moisture contents in NC-82 and Br-21. In conclusion, the equilibrium contents were related to the structure of tobacco matter, the grades, the temperature, and the amount of some chemical components such as water extracts and total sugar of the leaf tobacco.

The concentration of selenium in grain samples was determined using isotope dilution method in ORC-ICPMS. The experimental conditions were optimized to $H_2$ mode and the flow rate was $4.0\;mL\;min^{-1}$. ORC in $H_2$ mode proved to eliminate most of polyatomic interferences except $BrH^+$ when Br is present in sample matrix. Chemical removal of Br was very difficult and the mathematical correction was successfully employed. The fraction of $BrH^+$ generated from Br at the current experimental condition was 14.1%. The signal on m/z 82 was corrected and calculated for isotope dilution. The analytical reliability of the propose method was successfully evaluated by analyzing the certified standard reference material NIST SRM 1566 and 1567. The method was applied to real samples and the results are $0.034{\pm}0.001\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for white rice, $0.059{\pm}0.002_5\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for brown rice, $0.029{\pm}0.001_4\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for black rice, and $0.034{\pm}0.002\;{\mu}g \;g^{-1}$ for barley. The detection limits ($3\sigma$) for Se was $0.012\;ng\;g^{-1}$.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of liquid calcium acetate (LCAs) and solid calcium acetate (SCAs), Br-LCA, Pe-LCA and Ap-LCA as liquid form, Br-SCA, Pe-SCA and Ap-SCA as solid form. Calcium acetate was prepared by reacting of vinegars [brown rice (Br), persimmons (Pe) and apple (Ap)] and ash of black snail in order to obtain natural water soluble calcium resources. The pHs of the vinegars for preparing calcium acetate (CA) were the range of 2.34 ∼ 3.06, and the contents of the ash of black snail which reacted to 100 mL of the vinegars were 20.43∼23.50 g. The yields of solid CAs from 100 mL of the vinegars were 11.02∼13.01 g. The colors of liquid and solid CAs were light yellow in Ap-LCA and Ap-SCA, brown in Br-LCA and Br-SCA, dark brown in Pe-LCA and Pe-SCA. Calcium contents of Br-LCA, Pe-LCA and Ap-LCA were 3.02, 2.06 and 2.30% (w/v), and those of Br-SCA, Pe-SCA and Ap-SCA were 27.15, 16.31 and 19.48% (w/w), respectively. The solubilities of the solid CAs were 36.82 ∼ 39.92% (w/v) in distilled water, 32.05 ∼ 39.04% (w/v) in Soju, 13.12 ∼ 18.65% (w/v) in thick soysauce, 38.35 ∼ 38.90% (w/v) in ionic beverage, 33.47 ∼ 35.58% (w/v) in yoghurt, while the solid CAs formed the curds in soymilk and milk. The sour and bitter taste of the CAs were lower, while the astringent taste, fishy flavor and savory taste were higher than those of standard CA.

The purpose of this study is to determine the quantity of selenium in grains by hydride generation-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Two sample preparation methods, beaker and microwave digestions, are compared and the former shows better result. The optimum condition for hydride generation is 4.0 M for HCl, 3% for $NaBH_4$ with the sample flow of 0.6 mL/min. The detection limit is 0.02 ${\mu}g/kg$($3{\sigma}$) and improved by 10 times. Isobaric interferences on Se is removed by Octopole Reactoin Cell and $H_2$ (3.8 mL/min) shows better performance over He. However, in case Br exists in a matrix, $H_2$ could induce interferences on m/z 80 and 82 ($^{80}[BrH]^+$ and $^{82}[BrH]^+$). The accuracy of this experiment is examined successfully by analyzing several reference materials. The results for several domestic grain analysis show that the concentrations are between 12.7 ${\mu}g/kg$ and 29.6 ${\mu}g/kg$.

C3HC4-type RING zinc finger proteins essential in the regulation of plant processes, including responses to abiotic stresses. We previously isolated and examined the C3HC4-type RING zinc finger protein (BrRZFP1) from Brassica rapa under abiotic stresses. To elucidate the role of the BrRZFP1 transcription factor in gene regulation, we transformed tobacco plants with the BrRZFP1 gene. Plants were regenerated from 82 independently transformed callus lines of tobacco and analysed for transgene expression. Transgene integration and expression was confirmed by Southern and RT-PCR analyses, respectively. T2 plants displayed more tolerance to the bacterial pathogens Pectobacterium carotovorum and Ralstonia solanacearum, and the tolerance levels were correlated with BrRZFP1 expression levels. These results suggest that the transcription factor BrRZFP1 is an important determinant of stress response in plants and its overexpression in plants could increase biotic stress resistance.

Statement of problems: There are few studies which reported the survival rates of the specific dental implant systems in the Korean population with the follow-up periods longer than 5 years. Purpose: This retrospective clinical study was aimed to evaluate cumulative survival rate (CSR) of $Br{\aa}nemark$ implants followed for 10 years and to determine risk factors for implant failure. Material and methods: A total of 271 $Br{\aa}nemark$ implants in 83 patients were investigated with several identified risk factors. Life table analysis was undertaken to examine the CSR. Cox regression method was conducted to assess the association between potential risk factors and overall CSR. Results: Thirty implants failed. The 10-year implant CSR was 82.5%. Cox regression analysis demonstrated a significant predictive association between overall CSR and implant length (P<.05). Conclusion: An acceptable long-term result of $Br{\aa}nemark$ implant was achieved and implant length showed a significant association with the CSR.

Varietal response to cool temperature(18$^{\circ}C$) and short (8hr.)-day treatment were investigated under controlled conditions of Phytotron in the Suwon Agronomy Experiment Station. Five flue-cured and one burley tobacco varieties (Nicotiana tabacum L.) were used, and the length of treatment ranging from 8 to 32 days at 3-day intervals and also includes continuous treatment up to the plants were flowered. The days to flower decreased significantly than the no treatment when the length of treatment was 11 to 14 days for the varieties NC82, Br.21 and NC22NF, and 17 to 26 days for SPG-28, Mc.944 and TC499, respectively. And also the number of leaves decreased significantly than the no treatment when the length of treatment was 8 days for NC22NF, 11days for NC82 and Br.21, 14 days for Mc.944, and 17 days for SPG-28 and TC499, respectively. The maximum decreasing ratio of the leaf number by the cool temperature and short-day treatment were 47.7 to 58.5% for NC82, Br.21 and NC22NF, and 38.9% for Mc.944, 33.4% for SPG-28 and 29.0% for TC499, respectively.

The analysis of condensation and cleavage reaction was carried out at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.0 with purified isocitrate lyase from Saccharomycopsis lipolytica ATCC 44601. The Km values for condensation reaction of glyoxylate and succinate were 0.06 and 0.21 mM, respectively. In the cleavage reaction, glyoxylate was a linear competitive inhibitor with a Ki of 0.22 mM and succinate was a linear noncompetitive inhibitor with a Ki of 0.82 mM. Therefore, these kinetic analyses showed that the enzyme functioned in a ordered reaction with glyoxylate binding before succinate in the condensation reaction. 3-Bromopyruvate(BrP) was found to be irreversibly inactivation showing saturation kinetics, the inactivation half-time was 0.15 min and $K_{BrP}$ was 0.032 mM, and substrate or reactant protected against the inactivation.
