This paper described the behavior under repeated loading in triaxial compression test on clay. The experiment was conducted to investigate the influence of controlled various over-consolidation ratio and compaction energy, on the stress-strain behavior of clays. 1. The difference of deviator stress during repeated loading was greatly appeared at large strain. And pore water pressure was decreased at initial of unloading, but it was increased again before long. 2. The recoverable elastic strain (${{\Delta}{\varepsilon}e}$) and the slope of un-reloading were decreased with the increment of over-consolidation ratio (OCR). 3. The recoverable elastic strain (${{\Delta}{\varepsilon}e}$) was increased with the increment of strain rate but it was decreased with the increment of strain in strain rate tests. The slope of un-reloading (Eur) tends to increase with the increment of strain rate and it was decreased with the increment of strain. 4. The recoverable elastic strain was greatly increased with the increment of compaction energy and it slightly tends to decrease with the increment of strain on various compaction energy. The slope of un-reloading was not appeared markedly with increment of compaction energy but it tends to decrease with the increment of strain generally.

Malate dehydrogenase in the mosquito ovary after a blood meal, Aedes aegypti, was purified and characterized. MDH purification steps involved DEAE-Sepharose, S-Sepharose and Cibacron blue affinity chromatography. The purified MDH was 70,000 daltons in molecular weight and was a homodimer consisting of tow identical subunits. Optimal activity of purified MDH was obtained pH 9.0-9.2 in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and pH 9.8-10.2, in oxaloactate-malate reaction. With obtained pH 9.0-92 in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and pH 9.8-10.2, in oxaloactate-malate reaction. With malate as substrate, purified mitochondrial MDH (1.28$\times$${10}^{-4}$ M) had lower Km value than cytoplasmic MDH (8.92x${10}^{-3}$ M). MDH activity was inhibited by citrate, $\alpha$-ketoglutarate, and ATP. Inhibition of MDH activity by ATP and citrate was less in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and in oxaloacetate-malate reaction. MDH activity was completely inhibited by ATP in oxaloacetate-malate reaction and not inhibited by citrate in malate-oxaloacetate reaction. Temporal activity change of MDH is similar to that of isocitrate dehydrogenase in the ovary after blood feeding; their activities in the ovary began to rise at 18 hours after a blood meal, and reached at the maximal level at 48 hours.

The extraction yield of MeOH extract of green teas, oolong tea and black tea were 3 to 5, 4 to 5, and 5 to 7 fold higher than those of EtOH and EtAC extract, respectively. The amount of total catechins of EtAC extract of the black tea, and of the green teas and oolong tea were three- and two-fold higher than that of EtOH or MeOH extract of the corresponding teas, respectively. The antioxidative activities of EtOH, MeOH and EtAc extract were considerably higher than that of BHT and $dl-{\alpha}-tocopherol$ at 200 ppm level. The antioxidative activities of EtOH and MeOH extract at 200 and 500 ppm level, and of EtAc extract at 200 ppm level varied depending on the type of tea as follows : green tea I > green tea II > green tea III > oo-long tea> black tea. The antioxidative activity increased as the content of EGC increased. But the antioxidative activity of MeOH extract at 1000 ppm level, and of EtAc extract at 500 and 1000 ppm level were not affected by the content of EGC and EGCG.

The present study is suggested to estimate the degree of secondary consolidation caused by various changes of stress such as loading, unloading and reloading in improving poor subsoil through pre-compression loading construction method and, for this purpose, examined the characteristics of the consolidation of Kunsan clay through incremental loading test (IL) using standard consolidation tester and constant loading rate test (CLR), which were adapted from the constant rate of strain test (CRS). In addition, after CRS test, this study determined the characteristics of secondary consolidation and relationships among void ratio, effective stress and time according to the ratio of effective over-consolidation on reloading at the point of time of random expansion. Kunsan clay had larger expansion and smaller secondary consolidation settlement when the ratio of effective over-consolidation was high. In addition, when loading was applied after the load was removed at once, the secondary consolidation coefficient $C'_{\alpha}$ was smaller than that when the load was removed gradually, and when the ratio of effective over-consolidation was over 1.4 a similar value was produced. Based on the entire settlement resulting from reloading, the secondary consolidation coefficient $C"_{\alpha}$ increased non-linearly with the lapse of time but the final value was similar to that in the case of rapid removal. The strain velocity of void ratio was in a regular linear relationship with the increase of loading time regardless of the ratio of effective over-consolidation in both tests and it grew smaller with the increase of the ratio of effective over-consolidation.tion.

Since 2000, environmental policies and regulations in Korea are rapidly changing to TMDL(Total Maximum Daily Load) and nonpoint source control. This is due to bad water quality in drinking water sources. Although many environmental facilities having high removal efficiency are constructed and applied in nationwide for controling various pollutants from wastewaters, the water quality in rivers is worse and worse because of nonpoint pollution. In fact, TMDL is a new environmental regulation controling total daily loadings from watershed areas. Actually, the nonpoint pollutant is originated from various landuses and its control is based on TMDL regulation. Therefore, this research is performed to determine the size of detention basin to control nonpoint pollutants from resort developing areas. The detention basin is one of best management practices, which is useful for controling pollutants and flooding from the developing areas. However, it should be designed and constructed with cost effective method. Recent 10 years rainfall data are used to determine the size of detention basin. The cost effective size is determined to 7.4mm accumulated rainfall.

In the case of the seabed around and under gravity structures such as submerged breakwater is exposed to a large wave action long period, the excess pore pressure will be significantly generated due to pore volume change associated with rearrangement soil grains. This effect will lead a seabed liquefaction around and under structures as a result of the decrease in the effective stress, and eventually the possibility of structure failure will be increased. The study of liquefaction potential for regular waves had already done, and this study considered for irregular waves with the same numerical analysis method used for regular waves. Under the condition of the irregular wave field, the time and spatial series of the deformation of submerged breakwater, the pore water pressure (oscillatory and residual components) and pore water pressure ratio in the seabed were estimated and their results were compared with those of the regular wave field to evaluate the liquefaction potential on the seabed quantitatively. Although present results are based on a limited number of numerical simulations, one of the study's most important findings is that a safer design can be obtained when analyzing case with a regular wave condition corresponding to a significant wave of the irregular wave.

Design is a fatal factor to differentiate and survive one product from the other in fierce competition of the market, when other conditions such as price or quality makes no much difference. Among many marketing tools, package design is known as a direct communication that visualizes and forms the very initial brand image of a product. Package design is not only for packing, transporting, storing and loading but for engraving the brand image in a consumers' mind and lead them to purchasing. One of recent package design trands is various ways of using character, not just as a printed image on the surface but as a part of three dimensional structure of package. If it succeed, the package design could give out the secondary fun and impact to the consumers. The package design with an effective character is itself a great marketing tool and valuable design asset, which can bring a further profit to the company. Especially, character-package can be a powerful and effective marketing method for various local products, in needs of further publication and sales with limited cost. It should motivate the sales of the products by grabbing their attention and taken as a souvenir. This research takes a character package as a useful marketing method for a local brand in Jeonju, South Korea, and tries to design a three dimensional package using its own character. Through the process, the research aims to propose an important design strategy for repositioning or enhancing an existing brand.

The objectives of this study are to produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against Vibrio parahaemolyticus and to develop an immuno-selective filtration (ISF) method for the rapid and sensitive detection of V. parahaemolyticus. The characterization of the MAb produced from HKVP 4H9-9 hybridoma cell was validated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and western blot. The produced MAb was specific to V. parahaemolyticus and showed weak cross-reaction to V. alginolyticus, V. vulnificus and Staphylococcus aureus. After optimization of the method, $5{\times}10^1cell/mL$ of V. parahaemolyticus in a pure culture could be detectable. Although weak cross-reactivity to V. vulnificus, V. alginolyticus and Staphylococcus aureus was observed, the ISF was confirmed to be highly specific to V. parahaemolyticus. Especially, the ISF showed the most sensitivity compared to the immunoassays currently reported is easier to perform and quicker than ID-ELISA.

A bacterial strain producing intracellular phytase was isolated from cultivable soil near cowsheds and identified as a fluorescent Pseudomonas sp. BUN1. The BUN1 phytase, partially purified by cation and anion exchange chromatography, exhibited its optimal activity at $40^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.5. As for substrate specificity, it was very specific for phytate and showed little activity on other phosphorylated conjugates. Its activity was greatly inhibited by metal ions such as $Cu^{2+}$, $Cd^{2+}$, and $Zn^{2+}$. Addition of corn starch to PSM (phytasesynthetic medium) [0.5% sodium phytate, 0.5% $(NH_4)_2SO_4$, 0.5% KCl, 0.01% $MgSO_4\cdot7H_2O$, 0.01% $CaCl_2\cdot2H_2O$, 0.01% NaCl, 0.001% $FeSO_4\cdot7H_2O$, 0.001% $MnSO_4\cdot4H_2O$; pH 6.5] for the phytase production significantly induced its enzyme activity in comparison with other carbon sources tested.
