The membrane-bound ATPases were separated on sucrose gradient from corn roots and characterized by pH optima, sensitivity to monovalent salt, Km and Vmax. The pH optima for the activity of all the ATPases associated with 13, 000g pellet and 13, 000~80, 000g pellet were 5 and 9, respectively. The ATPases in Fractions B and C of the 13, 000 g pellet were more active at pH 5 than pH 9. While, in the case of Fractions D, E and F, they were reverse. The activities of the ATPase in Fractions A and C of the 13, 000~80, 000 g pellet were greater at pH 5 than pH 9. On the other hand, the ATPases in Fractions B, D, E, and F were more active at pH 9 than pH 5. The optimum concentraction of ATP for the assay was about 3 to 5 mM. The Km's for the membrane-bound ATPases in 13, 000g pellet and in 13, 000~80, 000 g pellet were 0.25 mM. While Vmax values for 13, 000g pellet were from 8.0 to 12.5 $\mu$M Pi/mg protein/hr. according to pH values, those for 13, 000~80, 000 g pellet were from 35.7 to 55.6 $\mu$M Pi/mg protein/hr. Activities of the membrane-bound ATPases in both 13, 000 g pellet and 13, 000~80, 000 g pellet were stimulated with increasing the concentration of $K^+$.

In this work, the effect of the culture medium composition on microbial growth and ethanol production in Clostridium autoethanogenum culture was investigated to enhance the ethanol productivity. D-Ca-pantothenate, vitamin B₁₂ (as vitamins), and sodium sulfide (as sulfur source) were selected as examined components, and the effects of components' concentration on cell growth and ethanol production was investigated. For D-Ca-pantothenate concentrations varing from 0.5, 5, 50 and 500 mg/L, a slight increase in the ethanol production was observed at the 0.5 mg/L, but negligible differences in microbial growth and ethanol production were measured for the concentration ranges examined. The effect of vitamin B₁₂ concentrations from 0.1, 1.0, 10, and 100 mg/L on the microbial growth and ethanol production was investigated, and it was found that the ethanol production using a 0.1 mg/L of vitamin B₁₂ concentration increased by 245% compared to that of using the basic medium concentration (10 mg/L). The effect of sodium sulfide concentrations (0.5, 5, and 10 g/L) on the microbial growth and ethanol production was also studied, and the inhibition of microbial growth was observed when the sodium sulfide usage was over 0.5 g/L. In conclusion, changes in D-Ca-pantothenate and sodium sulfide concentrations did not affect the ethanol production, whereas even a 100 times lower concentration of vitamin B₁₂ than that of the basic medium improved the production.

In this work, we investigated the effect of the concentration of medium components on microbial growth and ethanol production in order to improve ethanol productivity in the Clostridium autoethanogenum culture process using syngas as a sole carbon source. Molybenum, nickel and cobalt (as heavy metal ions) were selected as examined components, and the effects of components concentration on the cell growth and ethanol production was examined. Among molybdenum concentrations of 0, 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 g/L. a slight increase in ethanol production was observed at 0.001 g/L, but significant differences in the microbial growth and ethanol production were not observed in the examined concentration range. In the case of nickel concentration of 0, 0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 g/L, the change in the microbial growth and ethanol production was investigated, and it was found that the ethanol production using 0.001 g/L increased by 26% compared to that of using the basal medium concentration (0.01g/L). The effect of cobalt concentrations (0, 0.018, 0.18 and 1.8 g/L) on the microbial growth and ethanol production was also investigated, and the inhibition of microbial growth was observed when the cobalt usage was over 0.18 g/L. In conclusion, cobalt did not show any further improvement of ethanol production by changing concentration, however, molybdenum and nickel showed increases in the produced ethanol concentration compared to that of using 1/10 times of the basal medium concentration.

미래 정보와 시대에서 중추적인 역할을 할 광관련 멀티미디어 장비들은 최근 관련 산업계에서 주목을 받기 시작하고 있고 특히 기존 VTR(Video Tape Recorder) 시장을 대체할 차세대 DVDR(Digital Video Disk Recorder)는 기술전쟁이라고 할 정도로 선진 기업의 연구가 치열해지고 있다. DVDR 시스템에서는 필요한 정보들을 레이저빔을 이용한 광학신호로 바꾸어 광디스크에 기록, 재생하는 광픽업이 절대적으로 필요하게 된다. 그런데 광픽업의 위치추종기구인 Actuator는 정확한 위치추종(.+-.1.$\mu$m 오차이내)을 할 수 있는 성능이 요구되며 서보의 특성상 20KHz 이하에서 불필요한 모우드가 가진되지 않는 정밀부품이어야 하므로 Actuator 각 부품의 동적인 특성을 명확히 규명할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 우선 Actuator 각 부품과 가동부 전체의 중량 및 진동해석을 통해 동특성을 조사하였다. 그리고 Actuator의 중요한 기본성능중 하나인 구동감도 확보여부를 검토할 필요가 있기 때문에 유한요소법 프로그램인 ANSYS를 이용하여 자기회로 부분에 대한 해석을 구하였다. 또한 가동부와 자기회로 등 하위부품을 조립하는 과정에서 발생하는 조립오차로 인해 불필요한 공진과 회전형상이 야기될 수 있으므로 동특성 및 문제점 파악을 위한 민감도 분석이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 가동부의 관성 모멘트 값과 강체에 대한 일반식을 이용한 자체 프로그램을 작성하여 조립공차를 구하였다. 이와같은 과정을 통해 구해진 설계값을 바탕으로 실제 제작된 Actuator에 대해서는 비접촉식 측정방법을 통해 동특성값을 측정하였고 이를 해석값과 상호 비교하였다.동강성행렬법(dynamic stiffness matrix method)을 이용하여 해석하고자 한다. 수준임이 입증되었다. 본 연구의 결과를 토대로우리나라 젊고 건강한 남성에게 적합한 무게상수는 작업자군에 대하여 25.05kg, 학생군에 대하여 20.24kg 으로 나타나 이는 미국 NIOSH 안전기준과 대체로 일치함을 발견하였다.ive structures utilized in Client/server architecture for distribution and cooperative processing of application between server and client this study presents two different data management methods under the Client/server environment; one is "Remote Data Management Method" which uses file server or database server and. the other is "Distributed Data Management Method" using distributed database management system.

Uptake amount, percent translocation to grain and grain yield efficiency of N. P. K. Si were investigated with N. P. K simple trials (countrywide, 1967~69) and other nitrogen fertiltzer field trials in relation to yield class. 1) Uptake rate with yield increase were similar in all nutrients but silica showed greater yearly variation. 2) In N. P. K simple trials showing very low nitrogen efficiency(46kg grain/ nitrogen uptake kg) it and percent translocation increased with yield increase. 3) Nitrogen efficiency deacreased with the increase of nitrogen uptake and the decreasing rate depends greatly on fertilizer forms and variety. Nitrogen efficiency was greater in sandy loam where yield was higher than in clay loam. 4) Nitrogen efficiency positively correlated with percent translocation. 5) In high yielding fields yield was attributed only to the increase of nitrogen uptake, keeping efficiency around 50. 6) Major factor for high yield is considered as the increase of nitrogen efficiency rather than nitrogen uptake. 7) Phosphorus efficiency in N. P. K. simple trials was considerably low, suggesting too much uptake due to soil reduction.

Background: We analysed simple chest PA and high-resolution CT findings in patients with spontaneous pneumothorax in order to help selecting the kind of treatment, provide a guidline during surgical treatment, and to recognize the bulla which may not be detected by simple radiographs or may be a potential cause of recurrence. Material and Method: We retrospectively analysed the presence and number of bulla in each side, combined pulmonary disease on simple chest films and high-resolution CT, and methods and frequency of the treatment in 70 patients with spontaneous pneumothorax excluing traumatic origin. Result: 45 patients were revealed primary spontaneous pneumothorax, and the remaining 25 patients were revealed secondary spontaneous pneumothorax. All secondary spontaneous pneumothorax were from the longstanding sequelle of pulmonary tuberculosis. The patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax group was younger(mean:26.0 years old) than secondary group (mean: 44.1 years old). On simple radiography, bulla was detected in 16 patients(30.2%). On HRCT, the bulla was detected in 53 patients(75.7%) of the total 70 patients. In 48 patients(68.6%), the bulla or bleb was noted in ipsilateral side to the pneumothorax, and 34 patients(48.6%) of them showed bulla or bleb bilaterally. 39 patients(55.7%) showed bulla or bleb in contralateral side. The number of bulla or bleb was variable. In secondary spontaneous pneumothorax group, the incidence of multiple(more than 10) bulla or bleb was higher than primary type. Most of the patients were treated by thoracostomy(36 patients) or bullectomy( 7 patients). Conclusion: HRCT was superior to detect bulla and analyse the combined pulmonary disease than simple radiography. Therefore, HRCT can help to determine the mothod of treatment, provide a guidline during surgical treatment, and notify the bulla as a possible cause of recurrent pneumothorax.

고분자 표면에 MeV급 이온을 주입하게 되면 화학적, 광학적, 물리적, 전기적 특성 등 기존의 재래식 공정으로는 불가능한 다양한 특성변화가 일어나게 된다. 본 실험에서는 이온 조사에 따른 micro-hardness의 변화에 중점을 두어 관찰하였다. 수 MeV로 가속시킨 Cl과 C 이온을 Kapton, Teflon, PMMA에 조사량을 바꾸어가며 조사하였다. 이때 조사 전후 고분자 시료의 표면 경도는 depth-sensing nanoindentation technique (Nano Indenter II, USA)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 측정깊이는 극표면 효과와 기측효과의 영향을 무시할 수 없는 100nm로 결정하였다. 또한 이와 같은 경도변화를 규명하기 위하여 각각의 시료에 대해 FTIR, Raman, UV-VIS, RBS, XPS 스펙트럼을 측정하였으며, 조사중에 발생되는 가스상 분자들을 RGA를 이용하여 측정하였다. 1 MeV Cl 이온을 Kato에 4x1015ions/cm2 조사하면 경도가 0.35 GPa에서 7.1GPa로 약 20배 정도 증가하게 되며, 이 경도는 stainless steel 경도 2~3 GPa, martensite steel 8~12와 비교하여 보면 상당히 높은 수준임을 알 수 있다. Teflon과 PMMA 시료의 경우 1MeV Cl 이온 4X1015ions/cm2를 조사시키면 각각 경도가 0.31GPa에서 4.1a, 0.30 GPa에서 3.9GPa로 변화하였으며 Kapton에 비하여 상대적으로 경도의 변화가 적음을 알 수 있었다. 이온 주입된 Kapton의 경우 FT-IR측정에 의하여 이온 조사량이 증가함에 따라 C=O 진동, 이미드그룹의 CONH, tertiary amine의 C-N 흡수 피크가 감소되며, 1X1014ions/cm2 이상의 양이 조사되어야 개질변화가 일어남을 알 수 있었다. XPS 측정 결과 Kapton에 조사되는 이온양이 증가할수록 C=O, C-O 및 C-N의 탄소는 감소하고 페닐고리 탄소가 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이온 조사 중 측정한 RGA에서도 CO 가스가 대량 방출되는 현상을 관찰하였으며 FTIR 및 XPS에서의 C=O 결합의 감소와도 일치하였다. RBS에 의한 CNO 원소의 변화에서도 다른 원소보다 O의 감소가 현저하게 나타남을 확인하였다. UV-VIS 측정을 통해 조사 이온량에 따라 에너지 준위가 변동하여 흡수스펙트럼이 장파장으로 확대됨을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 공액 2중 결합의 형성에 의한 $\pi$-전자 및 기타 결함에 기인한다. PMMA 및 Teflon의 경우 FTIR 측정에 의하여 이온 조사됨에 따라 function group 들의 peak가 세기가 감소되면서 완만해지는 경향을 보이며 원래의 구조를 상실하게 된다. PMMA와 Teflon은 이온 조사가 되면 가교형서보다는 사슬절단이 주로 일어나므로 가교형성이 잘 일어나는 Kapton보다는 상대적으로 경도의 증가가 적음을 알 수 있었다.

A total of 665 strains of Escherichia coli isolated in Korea from stools of patients who were treated with antimicrobial drugs, doctors, and students were tested for the drug resistance and distribution of R plasmids. Approximately 25 to 41% of isolates were resistant to chloramphenicol, tetracycline, streptomycin, sulfisemidine and ampicillin(AP), and 9.5% were resistant to kanamycin. Nalidixic acid-resistant strains were only rarely encountered. The prevalence of resistant strains was significantly higher among patients than doctors and students. Strains multiply resistant to four or more drugs were significantly more prevalent among patient isolates than those from doctors and students, while no difference on the incidence of strains resistant to three or less drugs was noted among isolates from the three groups. The persons carrying strains resistant to four or more drugs were more frequently found among patients than doctors and students. Quite large proportions of drug-resistant strains transferred their resistance to drug-sensitive E. coli, with frequent transfer of whole resistance and AP resistance. Strains having higher multiplicity of resistance showed a tendency toward higher incidence of resistance transfer, irrespective of the origins of strains.

The water quality and the budget of pollutant loading in the downstream of Nakdong River were surveyed at 3 sites along the main stream from Mulgum to Hadan and 1 site of Yangsan tributary with response to the tides in May and June, 1983. The level of TSS in the Yangsan tributary, 6.1~21.3mg/l, was higher than any other site. The mean values of BOD were 1.16mg/l at Mulgum site, 1.83mg/l Yangsan site, 0.79mg/l Hwamyeong site and 3.56mg/l at Hadan site. The levels of NH sub(4) super(+)-N and PO sub(4) super(3-)-P were the highest at Hadan site, and the levels of zinc and copper were 2.11~5.98ppb and ND-50.00ppb at Yangsan tributary site. Although the flow rate of Yangsan stream accounted for only 4% of that of main stream, but the mean value of pollutant loading in the Yangsan stream amounted to 8.3% of the that of main steam.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of multiple adhesive coatings on the thickness of hybrid and adhesive layer and shear bond strength(SBS) of self-etch adhesives and self-etch primer adhesives. The buccal or lingual crown dentin of extracted human molars was used. Self-etch adhesives or self-etch primer adhesives were applied 1, 2 and 3 times on the dentin before light curing. In another group adhesives were reapplied after light curing first layer. Treated surfaces were prepared to measure the thickness of hybrid and adhesive layer with SEM, and shear bond strength to dentin using an Instron machine. The following results were obtained : 1. The adhesive layers increased with the number of coatings(p<0.05) with all adhesives. Adpor Prompt L-Pop and Xeno III were significantly thinner than self-etch primer adhesives (p<0.05). 2. The thickness of hybrid layers increased with the number of coatings (p<0.05). 3. The shear bonding strength of Unifil Bond and Clearfill SE Bond were higher than Scotchbond Multipurpose Plus and Adpor Prompt L-Pop (p<0.05), and similar with Xeno III. 4. The shear bond strength increased significantly with the number of coatings in Adpor Prompt L-Pop(p<0.05), but decreased at 3 times in AdheSE Bond(p>0.05). 5. In Adpor Prompt L-Pop and Xeno III, the shear bond strength decreased when adhesives were reapplied after curing the first adhesive layer.
