This study was conducted to investigate the effect of various addition and exclusion time of glucose (Control: no addition, A: 24～72 h, B: 24～48 h, C: 48～72 h, D: 0～72 h, E: 0～48 h, F: 0～24 h and 48～72 h, G: 0～24 h) on embryonic developmental capacity of 2-cell embryos in mice. Developed blastocysts were assessed for mean cell number by differential staining. The zona-intact blastocyst (ZiB) rates were higher (p<0.05) in group B than control. However, the zona-escape blastocyst (ZeB) rates were not significantly different in all groups. At 72 h, total blastocyst (ZiB + ZeB) formation rates were not significantly different in all groups. The mean cell number was not significantly different among all groups. The inner cell mass (ICM) cell number was higher (p<0.05) in group F than control, group A, B and G. The trophectoderm (TE) cell number was higher (p<0.05) in control than group A and D. The %ICM was higher (p<0.05) in group C, D and F than control. The ICM : TE ratio was not significantly different in all groups. Between control and glucose group, no significant difference was observed in the total blastocysts (ZiB + ZeB) formation rates. Also, no significant difference was observed in the mean cell number, ICM cell number and ICM : TE ratio. However the TE cell number was higher (p<0.05) in control than glucose group and %ICM was higher (p<0.05) in glucose group than control. In conclusion, glucose added in culture medium was not inhibitory on blastocyst formation but glucose added for 48 ～72 h in culture medium increases %ICM of blastocysts in mice.

The whole cell of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 which produce glucose isomerase was immobilized by entrapment method for the effective production of high fructose syrup. The highest immobilized activity was achieved when the enzyme was bound to 2% $textsc{k}$-carrageenan. Immobilized glucose isomerase the pH optimum was about pH 7.5~8.5. Immobilization of alkalophilic Streptomyces sp. B-2 on 2% $textsc{k}$-carrageenan at 7$0^{\circ}C$ showed an increase in glucose isomerase activity. GI activity of immobilized cells was maximum Co2+ concentration 10-3M, Mg2+ concentration 10-3M.

1. The 30 isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae collected from various places in Korea were classified into 2 strains in A' and B, by the 4 kinds of Japanese bacteriophages as follow; A' strain; Susceptible to $OP_1$ and $OP_2$ but not to $OP_1h$ and $OP_1h_2$. B strain; Susceptible to $OP_1h$, $OP_1h_2$ and $OP_2$ but not to $OP_1$. Of these bacterial strains, A' strain, a little different to A strain in Japan, was susceptible to $OP_1h_2$, while A' strain was resistant to $OP_1h_2$, 2. A' strain was widely and commonly distributed throughout this country, In geographical distribution, it was generally known that A' strain was distributed in south of Kyunggi-Do, whereas B strain was distributed north of Suwon area. 3. No specific tendency was found in the distribution of these strains in same variety.

This study was carried out to determine the reaction kinetic constant of the dehydration - thermal decomposition of $Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}10H_2O/Na_2B_4O_7{\cdot}5H_2O$ and to investigate the durability during the repeated use of a chemical heat-storage material and the reproducibility of reaction system. The order of the dehydration reaction was 1st-order. The reaction rate was directly proportional to a partial pressure difference of water steam. The kinetic constant was 0.27 and the reproducibility of dehydration reaction for a kinetic constant and a reaction order was excellent. The activity variation in the durability test of a chemical heat-storage material was within range of ${\pm}5%$ during the repeatedly use in several times.

Fix $n-2$ elements $h_1,{\cdots},h_{n-2}$ of the quotient field B of the polynomial algebra $\mathbb{C}[x_1,x_2,{\cdots},x_n]$. It is proved that B is a Poisson algebra with Poisson bracket defined by $\{f,g\}=det(Jac(f,g,h_1,{\cdots},h_{n-2})$ for any $f,g{\in}B$, where det(Jac) is the determinant of a Jacobian matrix.

We provide a direct proof of the following theorem of Kalton, Hollenbeck, and Verbitsky [7]: let H be the Hilbert transform and let a, b be real constants. Then for 1 < p < ${\infty}$ the norm of the operator aI + bH from $L^p(\mathbb{R})$ to $L^p(\mathbb{R})$ is equal to $$\({\max_{x{\in}{\mathbb{R}}}}{\frac{{\mid}ax-b+(bx+a){\tan}{\frac{\pi}{2p}}{\mid}^p+{\mid}ax-b-(bx+a){\tan}{\frac{\pi}{2p}}{\mid}^p}{{\mid}x+{\tan}{\frac{\pi}{2p}}{\mid}^p+{\mid}x-{\tan}{\frac{\pi}{2p}}{\mid}^p}}\)^{\frac{1}{p}}$$. Our proof avoids passing through the analogous result for the conjugate function on the circle, as in [7], and is given directly on the line. We also provide new approximate extremals for aI + bH in the case p > 2.

We have studied superconducting properties of $Mg_{1-x}Al_xB_2$ single crystals from reversible magnetization measurements. It was found that the upper critical fields $H_{c2}$ were decreased for both H // c and H // ab as Al is substituted for Mg. As a result, the large anisotropy of $H_{c2}$ observed in pure $MgB_2$, which is considered as one of the characteristics of two-gap superconductor, was decreased with Al doping. On the other hand, the irreversibility fields $H_{irr}$ were increased for x = 0.1 and were significantly decreased for x = 0.2. In contrary to the anisotropy of $H_{c2}$, the anisotropy of $H_{irr}$ was increased as Al concentration increases.

Background: In contrast to evidences of Ig H chain receptor editing in transformed cell lines and transgenic mouse models, there has been no direct evidence that this phenomenon occurs in human developing B cells. Methods: $V_HDJ_H$ rearrangements were obtained from genomic DNA of individual $IgM^-$ B cells from liver and $IgM^+B$ cells from bone marrow of 18 wk of gestation human fetus by PCR amplification and direct sequencing. Results: We found three examples of H chain receptor editing from $IgM^+$ and $IgM^-human$ fetal B cells. Two types of $V_H$ replacements were identified. The first involved $V_H$ hybrid formation, in which part of a $V_H$ gene from the initial VDJ rearrangement is replaced by part of an upstream $V_H$ gene at the site of cryptic RSS. The second involved a gene conversion like replacement of CDR2, in which another $V_H$ gene donated a portion of its CDR2 sequence to the initial VDJ rearrangement. Conclusion: These data provide evidence of receptor editing at the H chain loci in developing human B cells, and also the first evidence of a gene conversion event in human Ig genes.

Bentazon 6-hydroxylase (B6H) and cinnamic acid 4-hydroxylase (CA4H) activities were determined in rice (Oryza sativa L.) microsomes to study methods of enhancing cytochrome P-450 mediated aryl hydroxylation of bentazon by hydoxylase inducing compounds. Pretreating rice seeds with 1,8-naphthalic anhydride at 0.5-2% and fenclorim at 5 and 10 ${\mu}M$ increased B6H and CA4H activities. Treatments of rice seedling with ethanol 2.5% enhanced B6H and CA4H activities, and with phenobarbital at 12 mM enhanced B6H activity, and CA4H activity was enhanced at 2 mM. B6H activity was synergistically enhanced by combined treatments of ethanol 2.5 or 5% and phenobarbital 8 or 12mM and also that of 1,8-naphthalic anhydride 0.5 or 1% and phenobarbital 8 or 12 mM, but CA4H activity was decreased by combined treatment. Five-day-old rice seedlings showed higher B6H and CA4H activities which decreased with seedling age.

This paper is concerned with the classifications of quadric surfaces of first and second kinds in Euclidean 3-space satisfying the Jacobi condition with respect to their curvatures, the Gaussian curvature K, the mean curvature H, second mean curvature $H_{II}$ and second Gaussian curvature $K_{II}$. Also, we study the zero and non-zero constant curvatures of these surfaces. Furthermore, we investigated the (A, B)-Weingarten, (A, B)-linear Weingarten as well as some special ($C^2$, K) and $(C^2,\;K{\sqrt{K}})$-nonlinear Weingarten quadric surfaces in $E^3$, where $A{\neq}B$, A, $B{\in}{K,H,H_{II},K_{II}}$ and $C{\in}{H,H_{II},K_{II}}$. Finally, some important new lemmas are presented.
