The $Y_{1-x}(P_{1-y-z}Nb_yV_z)O_4:Eu_x$ blue and red emitting phosphors were prepared by the combinatorial chemistry method. The combinatorial library was designed to investigate the luminescence of the $Y_{1-x}(P_{1-y-z}Nb_yV_z)O_4:Eu_x$ phosphors under 254 nm and 147 nm excitations. In addition, the crystallinity and morphology of phosphors were checked by XRD and SEM. Based on the results from the combinatorial screenings, luminescent properties of phosphors are strongly dependent on the concentration of doping metal ions. It was found that a new phosphor $Y_{0.88}(P_{0.92}Nb_{0.05}V_{0.03})O_4:Eu_{0.12}$ shows excellent luminescent efficiency comparing to the $Y_{0.88}PO_4:Eu_{0.12}$ red phosphor.

Currently food-borne disease is being increased at outdoor food services including hotels and restaurants. Speedy and convenient practical monitoring techniques to determine hygienic conditions are needed. This study was designed to verify correlation of direct ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) examination method using ATP bioluminescence and surveillance with check-list by inspector. Hygienic status of personal hygiene (hands), kitchen utensils (knives, chopping boards, kitchen towels, cap openers, food storage containers, and blade of slice machines), facilities and equipments (refrigerator handles, worktables, and sinks) in five major hotels in Seoul were examined. The result of personal hygiene of hotels was relatively better than other inspection items (46.6 points in personal hygiene, 40.2 points in kitchen utensils, 40.3 points in facilities & equipments). In ATP inspection, kitchen utensils and facilities & equipments were relatively clean comparing with personal hands data ($40.8{\pm}6.77\;RLU/cm^2$). After correlation analysis of surveillance in hygienic status points and ATP value, all results showed negative and high correlation. The surveillance data and ATP results investigating personal hygiene, kitchen utensils and facilities & equipments were highly correlated. The ATP examination method which shows real-time identification could be considered as an appropriate method to alternate current check-list dependent safety management in food services including hotels.

This study was to investigate the effect of selenium on hepatic antioxidative defense system and oxidative damage in lead-administered rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 140$\pm$5g were divided into one normal group(Se, 0 ppm) and three lead groups according to dietary levels of selenium supplementation: Pb0(Se, 0 ppm), PbS(Se, 0.5 ppm), and PbSS(Se, 1.0 ppm). All experimental groups were fed the experimental diet ad libitum for 4 weeks, and lead groups fed one containing 2,000 ppm lead acetate. Liver superoxide dismutase(SOD) activities in Pb0 group increased compared with other experimental groups. Liver gluthathione peroxidase(GSH-px) activities in Pb0 group decreased compared with normal group, but those of PbS and PbSS groups significantly increased compared with Pb0 group. Glutathione S-transferase(GST) activities decreased in Pb0 group and not significantly different from PbS and PbSS groups compared with normal group. Reduced glutathione(GSH) contents and GSH/GSSG of liver in Pb0 group were lower than those of other groups. Liver vitamin E contents in Pb0 group were about 50% of the normal group, but those of PbSS and PbS increased more than Pb0 group. Liver damage in electron microphotography process decreased in RER, showed an increase in Iysosome and also an increase in swelling of mitochondria. and ordered as follows : PbSS. PbS. and Pb0. It was concluded that high levels of dietary selenium had protective effects on peroxidative damage of hepatic cell accompanied with increased antioxidative defense system in lead-administered rats.

To meet the interoperability requirements associated with geospatial data access and geoprocessing, much efforts to design prototypical systems conforming to $OpenGIS^{TM}$ specification has been made. With respect to Object Web GIS, however, current internet mapping technology mainly focuses on either developing mapping libraries or client applications regardless of the future needs for interoperability such as an integration of $OpenGIS^{TM}$ standard for CORBA. In this paper, we propose an $OpenGIS^{TM}$ compliant mapping kernel. OpenViews, which is designed to meet those requirements. The kernel of OpenViews encapsulates the process of acquiring geospatial data in the format of $OpenGIS^{TM}$ Geometry through ORB(Object Request Broker). OpenViews, being designed based on well-known design patterns, is a highly extensible in that programmers can easily customize it on the object oriented architecture. The components implemented in OpenViews are CORBA/Java objects, and as such are portable and scalable in a networked environment. A companion package, OpenBroker, is also developed as a portable geoprocessing application server to facilitate the implementation and configuration of server side CORBA objects. It can be used for implementing objects for spatial analysis service which would be independent of legacy spatial database systems in many cases. OpenViews, together with OpenBroker, has been successfully prototyped using the technologies including EJB and servlet as the core components of an Open GIS compliant internet mapping.

The animation should be produced to attract the audience's interests. Its characters will have the intended personalities through the interactions with the audiences, discarding the attributes of the nature. These personalities form the brand identity when they are exposed visually and will be powerful brand assets which lead the animation industry to the high-value added products. The brand identity of the character, the brand assets, can be used for various products in form of licensing and is noted to make an affirmative leverage effect. In this regard, the author has conducted an empirical research on the animation characters from the viewpoint of the brand, adopting, in particular, the Brand Personality Scale (BPS), which is the output of J. Aaker's (1997) study on brand personality defined as the human properties in relation with the brand. In addition, this study determines the correlation among the animation, brand and consumers based on the Sirgy's study (1982) resulting in that the better the brand and the consumer's personality are matched, the more the brand attitude is improved. In consequence, it is found that the animation characters have three personality levels such as refinement/ability, integrity and interests. The consumer's personality is divided into the 'practical ego-image' and the 'ideal ego-image' in the survey, and the survey result shows that the brand personality of the animation character exists between them.

In this paper, low conversion loss 94 GHz MIMIC resistive mixer was designed and fabricated. The $0.1{\mu}m$ InGaAs/InAlAs/GaAs Metamorphic HEMT, which is applicable to MIMIC's, was fabricated. The DC characteristics of MHEMT are 665 mA/mm of drain current density, 691 mS/mm of maximum transconductance. The current gain cut-off frequency(fT) is 189 GHz and the maximum oscillation frequency(fmax) is 334 GHz. A 94 GHz resistive mixer was fabricated using $0.1{\mu}m$ MHEMT MIMIC process. From the measurement, the conversion loss of the 94 GHz resistive mixer was 8.2 dB at an LO power of 10 dBm. P1 dB(1 dB compression point) of input and output were 9 dBm and 0 dBm, respectively. LO-RF isolations of resistive mixer was obtained 15.6 dB at 94.03 GHz. We obtained in this study a lower conversion loss compared to some other resistive mixers in W-band frequencies.

본 연구의 목적은 젖소에서 다배란유기법의 확립을 위해서 호르몬을 처리법을 달리한 결과이다. 난포의 발생을 자극하는 FSH 호르몬을 하루에 2번의 호르몬 주사를 하는 데, 이는 혈액내에 난포자극호르몬의 농도를 연속적으로 유지하여 난소에서 다난포 발생의 목적을 달성하고자 하는 방법이다. 하지만 빈번하게 호르몬을 주사하는 방법은 처리하는 노력이 필요하고 공란우도 스트레스로 작용한다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 한번에 많은 난포의 성숙을 유도하는 다배란처리법에 대한 보고가 많이 있어, 본 연구에서 이 다배란처리 효과를 비교하고자 젖소를 이용하였다. 방법으로는 다회주사법(8회)과 일회주사법(1회)에서 황체수와 수정란의 생산수 등을 조사하였다. 다회주사법은 생리식염수에 융해한 FSH를 1일 50mg씩 2회(12시간 간격)주사하는 법으로 CIDR 질내 주입 9일째부터 4일간 주사하였으며, 질내에 CIDR를 주입하고 11일째되는 날에 PG(25mg, 루텔라이스, 한국)를 주사하고, 12일째는 CIDR를 제거하여 일회주사법과 주기를 맞추었다. 일회주사법은 CIDR를 질내에 주입하고 나서 9일째 되는 날에 400mg의 FSH을 생리식염수에 융해하여 일회주사를 하고 다회주사법과 같이 인공수정과 채란시간을 맞추었다. 인공수정은 황체퇴행제(PG)를 주사하고 나서 48, 72시간에 2회 인공수정을 실시하여 1주일 후 수정란을 채란하였다. 인공수정시는 반드시 GnRH(2.5mg)를 동시에 주사하였다. 채란은 인공수정 후 7일째 되는 날에 비외과적으로 채란을 실시하여 우수한 수정란은 동결을 실시하였다. 다회주사법에서 14두, 일회주사법에서 14두를 공시하여 황체수, 회수수정란수, 배반포수, 동결란수를 조사하였다. 다회주사법에서는 황체수는 8.07$\pm$6.62개, 회수정란수는 6.78$\pm$5.96개, 배반포율은 58.9%, 동결란 생산율은 52.6%의 성적을 얻었으며, 일회주사법에서 황체수는 12.07$\pm$8.07개, 회수수정란수는 10.0$\pm$9.24개, 배반포율은 27.1%, 동결란 생산율은 25.0% 수준의 결과를 얻었으나 결과에 대한 통계분석시 다회주사법과 일회주사리법 간에 유의적인 차는 인정되지 않았다(student T-test, P<0.05). 본 실험의 결과에서 나타나듯이 생리식염수를 용매로 이용한 FSH 1회 주사법이 다회주사법과 비교하였을 때에 수정란 생산효율에서 유의적인 차이가 없으므로 이 방법을 이용한 다배란유기는 노동력과 공란우에 대한 스트레스를 경감할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Inhibitory cells are critically involved in shaping normal hippocampal function and are thought to be important elements in the development of hippocampal pathologies. The present study was carried out in hippocampal CA1 area in vivo to compare with hippocampal slice studies. Intracellular and extracellular recordings with or without bicuculline electrodes were obtained in the intact brain of anesthetized rats, and cells were intracellularty labelled with neurobiotin. Electrical stimulation of fimbria-fornix resulted in an initial short-latency population spike. In the presence of $10{\mu}M$ bicuculline, orthodromic stimulation resulted in bursts of population spikes. The amplitude of population spikes in the CA1 region increased with stimulus intensity, as did the number of population spikes when the field recording electrode contained $10{\mu}M$ bicuculline. We measured the level of excitability in the CA1 area, using a paired-pulse stimulus paradigm to evoke population spikes. Population spikes showed strong paired-pulse inhibition at short interstimulus intervals. Burst afterdischarges up to 400 ms were observed after paired-pulse stimulus. These result suggest that hippocampal CA1 inhibitory interneurons can affect the excitability of pyramidal neurons that can not be appreciated in conventional in vitro preparation.

This experiment was carried out to determine the effect of improvement of oversown pastures, treated with four nitrogen(N) application levels(0, 100, 200, 300 kg/ha) and three species mixtures (A: orchardgrass+ladino clover; B: orchardgrass+ladino clover+perennial ryegrass; C: orchardgrass+ladino clover+perennial ryegrass+Italian ryegrass). The establishment of perennial ryegrass, Italian ryegrass, and ladino clover were increased with increased N applications, but the ryegrass mixed with orchardgrass and ladino clover decreased the establishment of ladino clover. With the increase of N application levels, orchardgrass, perennial ryegrass and Italian ryegrass in comparison on botanical composition were getting better, while the native plants established already were decreased. The botanical composition of newly sown pasture plants was increased as cutting times progressed. The dry matter(DM) yield of pasture species increased significantly with N application up to 300 kg/ha. There was no significance among mixture treatments, although the DM yield of basic treatment(orchardgrass+ladino clover) was higher than other treatments. However, when compared DM yields on each cutting times, newly oversown pastures in A treatment was shown to be significantly higher only on 2nd cutting time than other treatments(P<0.05). The DM yield of native plants survived in basic species mixture was significantly less than those of other mixtures(P<0.05). Results of this study indicate that for improving oversown pastures, at least 300 kg/ha N application should be applied, and basic mixture (orchardgrass+ladino clover) has more advantage than treatments mixed with ryegrass.

This experiment was carried out in order to determine the optimum harvesting time of tetraploid Italian ryegrass. Moisture content, 1000-seed weight, germination and seed shattering were investigated at six harvesting times after anthesis in 1984 at Suweon. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Seed moisture content was slowly decreased until 24 days and fastly decreased from 24 days after anthesis. The daily mean moisture loss during the ripening period was about 1.5 percentage. 2. The maximum 1000-seed weight was reached at 24 days after anthesis and 1000-seed weight of Waseking was heavier than that of Giant. 3. Shattering began at 17-20 days after anthesis and thereafter rapidly increased. 4. Germination was 50% at 10 days after anthesis and maximum germination was reached at 24 days. 5. Considering germination, 1000-seed weight and shattering, the optimum harvest time was 24 to 27 days after anthesis. At this time, moisture content was 55.0 to 43.5 percent and two to five seeds per ten spikes were shed by shaking at the vertical point.
