In this paper, we aims to develop a microcontroll er-based ECG monitoring system and portable pulse oximeter using Compact Flash Interface. First, portable pulse oximeter system is designed to record 2 channel of biosignals simultaneously, including 1 channel of $SpO_2$ and 1 channel of pulse rate. It is very small and portable. Besides, the system makes it possible to measure a patient's condition without an additional medical equipment. We tried to solve the problems generated by a patient's motion. That is, we added an analog circuit to a traditional pulse oximeter in order to eliminate the change of the base line. And we used 2D sector algorithm. As present, SpO2 modules are completed. But there are still many further development needed in order to enhance the function. Especially, compact falsh interface remains the most to complete. Second, ECG monitoring system uses almost same as present 3-lead ECG system. But we focus on the analog part, especially in filter. The proposed filter is composed of two parts. One is a filter to remove the power-line interface. The other is a filter to remove the baseline drift. A filter to remove the power-line and the baseline drift is necessarily used in the ECG system. The implemented filter have three features; minimizing the distortion in DC component, removing the harmonic component of power-line frequency. Using compact flash interface, we can easily transfer a patient's personal information and the measured signal data to a network based server environment. That means, it is possible to implement a patient's monitoring system with low cost.

In this study, an attempt was made to investigate the probable organelles participating in the secretion of biligrafin. The animals (ICR male mice, 25-30gm) were divided into normal control and 6 biligrafin injected groups to which 30% biligrafin (0.006ml/gm b.w.) were injected at 10, 20, 40, 80, 160 and 320 min prior to the sampling. The mice of each group were perfused through the heart with ice-cold 2.5% glutaraldehyde buffered with 0.1M Na-cacodylate (pH. 7.4) under the Na-pentobarbital (Nembtal 0.0015mg/gm b.w.) anesthesia and liver tissues were taken from each group. Some specimens were immersed 1 hr in the same solution used in the perfusion. After an overnight rinse in 0.1M Na-cacodylate buffer containing 10% DMSO and 7.6% sucrose, $75{\mu}m$ fronzen sections were made for cytochemical study. The sections were incubated in thiamin pyrophosphatase (TPPase) and inosine diphosphatase (ID Pase) media for 70 min at $37^{\circ}C$ respectively and acid phosphatase (AcPase) medium for 40 min at $37^{\circ}C$. They were postfixed in 1 % $OsO_4$ for 1 hr. The other specimens were immersed for 8 hrs in the fixative consisting of 2.5% glutaraldehyde and 3.0% paraformaldehyde buffered with Na-cacodylate (pH. 7.4). All of the osmificated specimens were processed for electron microscopy. In both normal and biligrafin injected groups, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), vacuoles, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes were seen in the vicinity of bile canaliculus. In the biligrafin injected groups, however, the Golgi apparatus appeared to be decreased and ER and vacuoles were dilated and increased. The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) having a few attached ribosomes appeared to be the round saccule, especially at 20 min after biligrafin injection. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) seemed to be formed by the detachment of ribosomes at the cisternal end of RER. The cistern of SER showed saccules which probably budded off to form the vacuole. The vacuoles were devoid of visible centents. This finding seemed to be in agreement with the biochemical property of the bile constituents. The fusion between the vacuoles and bile canaliculus were frequently seen in the groups injected with biligrafin. The lysosome did not show any changes in the biligrafin injected groups. Accumulation of some material and lipid droplets were seen at the 40 and 80 min after biligrafin injection, especially at the latter. At 160 and 320 min after biligrafin injections, however, they were decreased successively while the RER stack, free ribosomes and polysomes were increased. Although the reactive products of TPPase and IDPase were observed in the ER saccules and vesicles of the normal control and biligrafin injected groups, the fusion between the bile canaliculus and saccules or vesicles could easily be seen in the latter. The AcPase activity, however, was observed in the cistern at the maturing face of Golgi apparatus and lysosomes in both normal and biligrafin groups. The results suggest that the biligrafin is excreted via the vesicles, vacuoles or sacoules probably derived from the SER without the participation of Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, and the excess amount of material is stored as inclusions during the repairing of the organelles being overactive.

This study was carried out to find optimum concentration of germanium compounds and pH of medium on the induction and growth of callus from A. keiskei and P. ginseng and to intend to increase Ge. absorption by calli while those calli were subculturing on MS medium. Callus from a. keiskei was rarely induced under light condition. Under dark condition, callus in­duction from A. keiskei was good up to 5ppm, retarded at 50ppm of $GeO_2$, or C. E. Ge. O., and rarely done at 100 ppm of $GeO_2$ but was somewhat well at 100 ppm of C. E. Ge. O. The induction and growth of callus was good in order of pH 5. 7 > pH 5. 4 > pH 6. 0 Under light condition, the growth of callus induced from P. ginseng was poor at $1{\sim}10\;ppm$ of $GeO_2$, or C. E. Ge. O., but shooting from callus occurred frequently. Under dark condtion, the growth of callus from A. keiskei was good up to 5 ppm of $GeO_2$, or C. E. Ge. O. and was rarely done at 50 ppm of $GeO_2$, but was somewhat well even at 100 ppm of C. E. Ge. O. Shooting from callus occurred frequently in a. keiskei, especially at pH 5.7. The growth of callus from P. ginseng was poor at 10 ppm of $GeO_2$, or 50 ppm of C. E. Ge. O. Under dark condition, the amount of Ge absorption by callus induced from A. keiskei was much high­er than that from P. ginseng. The amount of Ge. absorption by callus treated with $GeO_2$, was higher than that treated with C. E. Ge. O.

Mehrere Sprachen insgesamt oder in Ausschnitten miteinander zu vergleichen, hat die Sprachwissenschaft mit je unterschiedlichen Erkenntnisinteressen wenigstens seit dem 17. Jahrhundert unternommen. Bis in diese Zeit reichen die Versuche einer inhaltlichen, d.h. auf die Inhalte sprachlicher Formen bezogene Sprachtypologie zuruck. Im 19. jahrhundert entstand und entwickelte sich die historisch-vergleichende (komparatistische) Sprachwissenschaft mit dem vorrangigen Bestreben, Ursprung, Entwicklungsgeschichte und Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen einzelner Sprachen durch vergleichende Untersuchungen zu rekonstruieren. Die sprachtypologischen $Bem\"{u}hungen\;fr\"{u}herer$ Zeiten haben ihre Forsetzung in der neueren, etwa in den 60er Jahren $verst\"{a}rkt$ einsetzenden Unversalienforschung. In den meiseten $europ\"{a}ischen$ Sprachen gibt es nicht geringe und $auff\"{a}llige$ Lehnwortbestande. Diese $Wortbest\"{a}nde$ beruhen nicht auf $Zuf\"{a}lligkeiten$, sondern sie sind Ergebnisse internationaler Kontakte mit politischen, kulturellen, okonomischen und anderen Voraussetzungen. Diese sprachlichen Gemeinsamkeiten in verschiedenen Sprachen werden mit dem Begriff des Internationalismus $erfa{\ss}t$. Obwohl die $europ\"{a}ischen$ Sprachen sich immer mehr von den gemeinsamen Ursprungssprachen entfernt haben, verraten die $Wortbest\"{a}nde$ der Internationalismen Tendenzen der $Ann\"{a}herungen$ und der Gemeinsarnkeiten, vor allem auf der Ebene des Wortschatzes. Im Ausblick auf $M\"{o}glichkeiten$ der Verwertung von nationalen $Wortsch\ddpt{a}tzen$ kann man so fomulieren: Internatonalismen 1) $k\"{o}nnen$ die Alltags­kommunikation zwischen Menschen verschiedener Herkunftssprachen erleichtern; sie offenbaren, $da\ss$ viele Fremdsprachen gar nicht so fremdartig sind; 2) haben im Hinblick auf den Fremdsprachenerwerb und den Fremdsprachenunterricht multiplizierten Gebrauchwert: Viele Interlexeme $geh\"{o}ren$ zum festen Bestand $europ\"{a}ischer$ Sprachen; 3) geben $Aufschlu\ss\;\"{u}ber$ geschichtliche und kulturelle $Kontaktvorg\"{a}nge$ und Kontaktergebnisse in Europa; 4) $k\"{o}nnen\;als\;Wortsch\"{a}tze\;einer\;m\"{o}glichen\;europ\"{a}ischen$ Integration betrachtet werden'.

The behavior on the solvent extraction of heavy rare earths (HRE) by using PC88A was confirmed to demonstrate the possibility of recovery on the HRE from industrial wastewater, which consist of low concentration rare earth. We verified the extraction behavior of the HRE through a change of equilibrium pH, extractant concentration and A/O ratio, and also confirmed the stripping behavior depending on the type of mineral acids. At equilibrium pH 1.0, extraction of rare earth (RE) was completed from 95% to 100%. In all extraction conditions, it tend to be extracted in order of high atomic number. When A/O ratio was 10/1, Yb and Tm were concentrated at the maximum and increased 6-fold and 3-fold compared to initial concentration, respectively. To confirm the stripping behavior of the RE, three mineral acids were applied to the organic phase and consequently rate of stripping was increased in order of $HNO_3$, $H_2SO_4$ and HCl.

Golgi SNAP receptor complex 1 (GS28) has been implicated in vesicular transport between intra-Golgi networks and between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi. Additional role(s) of GS28 within cells have not been well characterized. We observed decreased expression of GS28 in rat ischemic hippocampus. In this study, we examined the role of GS28 and its molecular mechanisms in neuronal (SK-N-SH) cell death induced by hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$). GS28 siRNA-transfected cells treated with $H_2O_2$ showed a significant increase in cytotoxicity under glutathione (GSH)-depleted conditions after pretreatment with buthionine sulfoximine, which corresponded to an increase of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells. Pretreatment of GS28 siRNA-transfected cells with p38 chemical inhibitor significantly inhibited cytotoxicity; we also observed that p38 was activated in the cells by immunoblot analysis. We confirmed the role of p38 MAPK in cotransfected cells with GS28 siRNA and p38 siRNA in the cell viability assay, flow cytometry, and immunoblot. Involvement of apoptotic or autophagic processes in the cells was not shown in the cell viability, flow cytometry, and immunoblot analyses. However, pretreatment of the cells with necrostatin-1 completely inhibited $H_2O_2$-induced cytotoxicity, ROS generation, and p38 activation, indicating that the cell death is necroptotic. Collectively these data imply that $H_2O_2$ induces necroptotic cell death in the GS28 siRNA-transfected cells and that the necroptotic signals are mediated by sequential activations in RIP1/p38/ROS. Taken together, these results indicate that GS28 has a protective role in $H_2O_2$-induced necroptosis via inhibition of p38 MAPK in GSH-depleted neuronal cells.

In a conventional and lean operating engine, the state of mixture is very important in the combustion and emission characteristics. Lean operation is known to decrease the formation while maintaining a good fuel economy, but the unstable operation due to misfire and erratic combustion prevents engines from being operated at very lean mixtures, so both combustion rates and exhaust emission formation need to be satisfied comparably. In this study, it is designed and experimented the modified engine, and analyzed the combustion and exhaust emission according to the change of engine speed and with adding ozone. The conclusions were drawn out and enumerated as follows. 1. At the experimental result of automobile diesel engine, it has been verified that the formation of particulate matter(PM) gas is able to be lower with the addition of optimum quantities of ozone. 2. Carbon monoxide(CO) was formed by the lack of oxygen and the thermal dissociation in the combustion process. Therefore, with the change of swirl valve's position and addition of oxygen and ozone, CO formation was decreased by the increasing of excessive O2, but it was increased by the temperature of combustion gas growing higher. As a result of the two effects, CO formation was decreased in this study. 3. Hydrocarbon(HC) was formed by the lack of O2, and the flow of mixture in cylinder. According to opening of the swirl valve and adding the oxygen and ozone, hydrocarbon gas was decreased by 20%, 9%, and 27.5%, respectively. 4. Nitric oxides($NO_x$) was strongly affected by the combustion gas temperature. As a result of respectively experimental conditions, $NO_x$ formation was increased about 20% due to (be the) high(er) combustion gas temperature.

;The electronic state calculations for various types of ceramic materials have beell performed by the use of $DV-X\;{\alpha}$ cluster method. The molecular orbital levels and wave functions for model clusters have been computed to study the electronic properties ami chemical bonding of the ceramics. For ${\beta}-sialon(Si_{6-z}Al_zO_zN_{8-z})$ which is a high temperature structural material based on ${\beta}-Si_3N_4$, we have made model cluster calculations to estimate the strength of chemical bonding between atoms by the Mulliken population analysis. It is found that the covalent bonding between Si and N atoms is very strong in pure ${\beta}-Si_3N_4$, but the covalency around solute atom is considerably weakened when Si atom is substituted by AI. This tendency is enhanced by an additional substitution of oxygen atom for N. The result calculated can well explain the experimental data of changes in mechanical properties such as the reductions of Young's modulus and Vickers hardness with increment of z-value in ${\beta}-sialon$. Various model clusters for transition metal oxides which show many interesting physical and chemical properties have also been calculated. High-valent perovskite-type iron oxides EMFe0_3E(M=Ca and Sr) possess very interesting magnetic and chemical properties. In these oxides, iron exists as $Fe^{4+}$ state, but the experimental measurement of Mossba~er effect suggests that disproportionation $2Fe^{4+}=Fe^{3+}+Fe^{5+}$ takes place for $CaFe0_3$ at low temperatures. The model cluster calculations for these compounds indicated the existence of considerably strong covalent bonding of Fe-O. The calculations of hyperfine interaction at iron neucleus show very good agreement with the experimental Mossbauer measurements. The result calculated also implies that the disproportionation reaction is strongly possible by assuming the quenching of breathing phonon mode at low temperatures.tures.

Art. 2 Abs. 1 GG sch${\ddot{u}}$tzt umfassend die allgemeine Handlungsfreiheit. Daher bed${\ddot{u}}$rfen private Handlungen grunds${\ddot{a}}$tzlich keiner gesetzlichen Erm${\ddot{a}}$chtigungsgrundlage. Dies gilt selbstverst${\ddot{a}}$ndlich auch fur die Unternehmen der Bewachungsbranche. Allerdings ist es bei der Aus${\ddot{u}}$bung der Bewachungsaufgabe typisch, mit Strafe oder zumindest Schadensersatzpflicht sanktionierte Tatbest${\ddot{a}}$nde zum Nachteil Dritter zu verwirklichen. F${\ddot{u}}$r solche F${\ddot{a}}$lle stehen den Bewachungspersonen m${\ddot{o}}$glicherweise Rechtfertigungsgr${\ddot{u}}$nde zur Seite. Dadurch wird ein ansonsten rechtswidriges Handeln rechtm${\ddot{a}}$${\ss}$ig und so wird im Ergebnis eine Strafbarkeit (wie auch eine Schadensersatzpflicht) ausgeschlossen. Dabei wird klargestellt, dass dem Sicherheitsgewerbe au${\ss}$er in den F${\ddot{a}}$llen der gesetzlichen ${\ddot{U}}$bertragung der hoheitlichen Befugnisse nur die vom Auftraggeber vertraglich ${\ddot{u}}$bertragenen privatrechtlichen Befugnisse sowie die Jedermannsrechte zustehen Au${\ss}$erdem soll im Rahmen der Privatisierung der Gefahrenabwehraufgaben auf solche spezialgesetzlichen Regelungen hingewiesen werden, bei denen Bewachungspersonen mit der hoheitlichen Wahrnehmung bestimmter Sicherheitsaufgaben betraut, d.h. dazu befugt sind, Sicherheitsaufgaben in den Handlungsformen des ${\ddot{O}}$ffentlichen Rechts 면켜${\ddot{u}}$ben. In der koeranischen Literatur ist die Handlungsgrundlage des Bewachungspersonals bis jetzt kaum n${\ddot{a}}$her untersucht. Im allgemeinen werden strafrechtliche Rechtferigungsgr${\ddot{u}}$nde, z.B. Notwehr, Notstand und Selbsthilfe, als dabei anwendbare Normen anerkannt. In dieser Arbeit wird festgestellt, dass die privaten Sicherheitsdienstleister in beiden L${\ddot{a}}$ndern durch die Gewerbegenehmigung au${\ss}$er in den F${\ddot{a}}$llen der Beleihung keine hoheitlichen Befugnisse erhalten. Als Handlungsgrundlage kommen nur die allgemeinen Not- und Jedermannsrechte im Rahmen von Straf-Strafprozess- bzw. Zivilrecht in Betracht.
