Wastewater-adapted microalgae such as Chlorella vulgaris AG10032, Ankistrodesmus gracilis SAG278-2 and Scenedesmus quadricauda AG10308 are useful biological resources for recovering biofuel and other bio-based materials from wastewater because of their efficient removals of nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater and their high fatty acid contents in biomass. Although the concentrations of phosphorus typically vary in wastewater environment, very little is known about the effect of phosphorus concentration, especially phosphorus starvation, on microalgal fatty acid synthesis. This is partially due to the lack of methodological establishment for algal fatty acid analysis. In this study, we compared the analysis performances of microalgal fatty acids by two different methods; one is a non-polar GC (gas chromatography) column based method, which is generally used for microbial fatty acids, and the other is a polar WAX-type GC column method, which is typically used for plant fatty acids. And then, we explored the effect of phosphorus concentration levels on fatty acid production in microalgae cultivated from wastewater. As results, the polar WAX-type column method has better ability to separate poly unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) including $C_{18:3}$ (linolenic acid), and was found to be more applicable in analyzing fatty acids from wastewater-cultivated microalgae than the non-polar column method. The fatty acid characterization by the WAX-type column method revealed little effect of phosphorus starvation on the quantity and composition of fatty acids from wastewater-cultivated microalgae.

Cherry silverberry (Elaeagnus multiflora) contains bioactive phenolics. This study was conducted to determine whether feeding cherry silverberry wine (CSW) to rats would alleviate the progress of alcoholic fatty liver. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided by weight into the following three groups. Two groups of rats were fed 6.7% ethanol or the caloric equivalent Lieber-DeCarli diet containing maltose-dextrin, and the other group an isocaloric Lieber-DeCarli diet containing CSW at the same ethanol level for 6 weeks. CSW's flavonoids, its antioxidant and free radical scavenging activities, serum transaminases, serum and hepatic lipids, and liver histology were examined. Our results showed that CSW exerted significant antioxidant and radical scavenging activities. The serum activities of alanine and aspartate transminases were markedly decreased by CSW at 6 weeks. Also, CSW feeding resulted in significant reductions in blood cholesterol and triglyceride. The development of alcoholic fatty liver was significantly delayed by lowering fat accumulation. Taken together, these results indicate that CSW may help protect the liver against alcoholic fatty liver by improving serum and hepatic lipid status. This may be associated with the protective effect of CSW on alcoholic fatty liver via bioactive phenolic compounds.

Purpose : To compare Multi Echo Data Image Combination (MEDIC) and fast SE T2-weighted images with fat saturation (T2FS) to suggest more accurate evaluation of the histologic components of soft-tissue tumors. Materials and Methods : The experimental group included 25 histologic tissues (5 vascular, 4 neural, 4 fibrous, 4 hypercellular, 2 hemorrhagic necroses, 2 cystic, 2 lipoid, 1 myxoid stroma, and 1 thrombus) in 10 patients who had pathologically confirmed schwannoma (n = 3), hemangioma (n = 2), lipoma (n = 1), angiokeratoma (n = 1), synovial sarcoma (n = 1), liposarcoma (n = 1), and malignant fibrous histiocytoma (n = 1). The inhomogeneity values were measured using the standard deviation value (SD) divided by the mean value as SD presents an error amount similar to that of imaging heterogeneity. Results : The inhomogeneity values of 25 histologic components were lower on MEDIC than those on T2FS (p < .001). Conclusion : We conclude that MEDIC is more accurate than T2FS for evaluating the tissue components of soft-tissue tumors using digitalized data because MEDIC images have far lower inhomogeneity.

Arthrospira platensis (A. platensis) is an economically important microalgae because it has carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and a number of phytochemicals. It is also a valuable source used in the production of biodiesel and functional foods. In this study, A. platensis was exposed to electron beam irradation (240 kGy) and induced random mutagenesis for strain improvement. Several mutants were obtained, and the resulting mutant was designated as EB29. The growth rate and chlorophyll content of EB29 was similar to those of wild type. However, the lipid content of EB29 was increased seven-fold compared to that of wild type when comparing the nile red fluorescent intensity. Semi-quantitative analysis of EB29 using the calibration plot of standard lipid, triolein, represented $78.6{\mu}g/mL$, which increased 2 times compared to wild type ($41.4{\mu}g/mL$). When analyzing the fatty acid profile of EB29, polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) in EB29 increased about six-fold. Moreover, fatty acids affecting the quality of biodiesel increased compared to that of wild type. Thus, electron beam could be used for the strain improvement of microalgae in order to accumulate PUFAs and alteration of fatty acid profile for biodiesel.

The nutritional value of Korean traditional diet was estimated by using the 7-dish meal of Kim Ho Jik (1944) and the standard weekly menu of Bang Sin Young (1957), and compared to the current Recommended Daily Allowance of Korean. The Korean traditional diets were estimated to be able to supply 2,000-2,500 Kcal and 80-90g of protein per day. The constitution of energy was made by 73-77% carbohydrate, 15-18% protein and 10-12% lipid. The content of animal protein was 20-30% of total protein. The Korean traditional diet could supply sufficient amounts of protein, minerals and vitamins for an adult male, if the energy intake exceeds 2,00 Kcal per day.

One of the biggest problems found from the results of the various GIS-related projects which have been fulfilled by many local self-governing bodies is as follows. Many GIS projects have been undertaken without the proper review on National Standards on GIS, the information master plans for the development of the municipalities, and the GIS master plans which should be followed by the former ones with the relatively detailed implementation planning. Because these projects were to be done at most with little considerations of the formerly mentioned materials such as vision, goals, strategies, and the implementation planning, it is quite doubtful that a GIS project could play a proper role as an element in the integrated information system. As an effort to solve this problem, this paper first analyzes the types of the GIS projects done by many municipalities, proposes a recommended procedure for a life cycle of a GIS project and for a GIS master plan based on the information master plan for a municipality.

농축생선단백질(Fish Protein Concentrate, FPC)로 보충된 국수의 영양가를 연구하기 위하여 25일된 쥐를 사용하여 4주 동안 동물 실험을 하였다. 각각 10마리씩 네 group으로 나누어 0, 10, 15% FPC와 표준 casein diets를 주고 매일 섭취량을 기록하고, 매주 동물의 체중을 재서 Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER)를 계산함으로써 단백질의 질(質)을 평가하였다. 4주 후에 동물의 간을 취하여 수분과 지방의 양을 측정하였다. 또한 농축생선 단백질로 보충된 국수가 음식으로서의 적응도를 측정하기 위하여 어른 10명과 아이들 5명에게 관능 검사를 실시하였다. FPC 15% diet group의 체중은 4주 동안에 157.2g이 증가했고, FPC 10%는 135.7g, casein은 103.0g, FPC 0%(plain noodle)은 25.8g 밖에 되지 않았다. 이것들의 PER은 FPC 15% diet group 이 3.83으로 제일 높았고, 다음이 FPC 10%로 3.35였고, casein은 이보다 낮은 3.31이였다. 간의 지방양은 FPC 15% diet group이 2.94%로 제일 낮았으며, FPC 10%가 3.98%, casein이 5.57%의 순서였다. 지방의 양이 적을수록 단백질의 질(質)이 높다는 것을 말하며, 5%정도가 보통이다. PER, 동물의 체중과 지방의 양으로 단백질의 질(質)을 측정한 결과 FPC 15% 국수가 질(質)이 제일 좋다는 것이 판명되었다. 관능검사 결과 전체적 계수는 FPC 15% 국수가 제일 낮은 2.7 (1.0에서 5.0까지 사용)이고 다음이 FPC 10% 국수로 3.5였으나 plain noodle만 못하였다. 특히 색갈(color)에 많은 차이를 보였기 때문이며, 맛(flavor)과 질(texture)에는 별 차이가 없었다. FPC 15% 국수는 색갈이 plain noodle에 비해 검은 편이였으나 모밀국수 보다는 색갈이 희므로 그렇게 문제가 될것 같지는 않다. 어린 아이들에게는 닭 국물에 국수를 넣어 주였더니 라면과 맛이 비슷해 아주 좋아했다.

GIS has been rapidly developed since 1995 when the Ministry of Construction and Transportation started the First National GIS Construction Project and built large scale topographic map at local governments level. From that time local governments have been built several application system such as road management system, waterworks management system, sewer management system, underground facilities management system, and urban planning information system, etc. However, the construction of GIS application system at different department level brings the problem of data sharing and overlapping database construction. To overcome this environment Enterprise GIS concepts has been introduced. In case of Seoul Metropolitan government Spatial Data Warehouse have been constructed. However, Seoul Metropolitan government still have the problem of inactive use of GIS system and adaption to the rapidly changing information environment. This study aims to present Strategic plan to uggrade Enterprise GIS concenpt from data centric to service centric architecture at local government level.
