When the calibration on Liquid Scintillation Counter using the Solid $^3H$ Standard Source of 200,000DPM is executed, the uncertainty due to activity and geometry difference, exists. Therefore, this paper intends to evaluate environmental samples comparatively accurately as decreasing this uncertainty existing in the process of calibration. For this, measurements on samples manufactured by $^3H$ Standard Source and sensitivity study were performed. Also, this paper verified calibration results using Radioactivity-Error-Analysis Method, and evaluated quantitatively the effect by geometry and activity difference based on verification result. According to the result of sensitivity study, in case of using the exposure time of 75 sec and Repeat method, the measuring accuracy and precision of about $1{\sim}3%$ were increased in comparison with the existing method. By analysis result, the effect by activity difference did not appear, and a plastic cell existing into Teflon vial made a role as reflector. The less the effect of plastic cells are decreased, the more activity is high, and the effect of those can be neglected at the activity of 200,000 DPM.

This study was aimed to find out the influence of long-term fertilization for 21 years on soil enzyme activities in the silty clay loam textured normal paddy soil. Total urease activity (TUA) and the microbial urease activity (MUA) were shown to be changed significantly, but the accumulated urease activity (AUA) was similar within trial plots. Especially the MUA of the plots annually applied N.P.K. fertilizers with compost and N.P.K. fertilizers with silicate fertilizer were the highest among plots. The total L-glutaminase activity (TGA) and the accumulated L-glutaminase activity(AGA) were changed significantly among trial plots, but the microbial L-glutaminase activity (MGA) was not. By the simple correlation analysis, it was shown that the TGA and the AGA correlated highly significant to available phosphorus available $SiO_2$ content and pH. Addition of the toluene to the incubation mixture did not markedly affect the activity of phosphatase, but the difference of phosphatase activity among plots was significant. By the simple correlation analysis, it was shown that the phosphatase activity ; correlated highly significant to pH, available $SiO_2$, available phosphorus and exchangeable calcium in soils.

This research is about influence on academic motivation and satisfaction of college life by Dong-A-Ry activity in students on department of dental hygiene. The results of the study were as follows: 1. The relationship between academic motivation and Dong-A-Ry activity was found to a positive relationship with ${\alpha}$ <0.05 in analysis of variance, which shows that correlation between variables are significantly high. 2. The relationship between satisfaction of college life and Dong-A-Ry activity was found to a positive relationship with ${\alpha}$ < 0.05 in analysis of variance, which shows that correlation between variables are significantly high. 3. This research suggests that students obtain the experience of group activity which is difficult to approach by regular curricular activity. As a result, to improve the highly motivated study and the better satisfaction in college life, Dong-A-Ry activities are needed. And Dong-A-Ry activity can be efficiently facilitated by active participants, efficient program development, facilitator's leadership and so on.

This study was conducted concerning convergence education practice to examine the difference of learning activity participation based on college students' individual traits such as gender, grade and major. To achieve the purpose, the types of learning activity were divided into teacher-directed type, teacher-intervened type, peer-leader type, students' mutual initiative type, and then the difference of types of participation in learning activities based on learners' traits was examined. The results of crosstabs showed that there were differences in the participation of learning activities depending on the students' individual traits. The participation of girl students in gender, first year students in school-year, and students of Health & Social Service in major was significantly high.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to measure the level of activity possessed by the daily activities of the elderly. In addition, we attempted to compare the differences in the categories of daily activities. Methods : We used K-ACS to evaluate 30 older people who engaged in economic activity living in community, 30 older people who did not have economic activity living in community, and 30 older people living in facility. We compared the level of activity retention. Results : There was a significant difference of level of activity retention according to the daily activity category of the subjects(p <.001). There was a difference in the instrumental activities according to the category of each activity, while the three groups showed similar patterns in leisure activities and social activities. In particular, all three groups were most likely to rest and watch television in the leisure activities, so the leisure activities of the elderly in Korea were very limited. Among the general characteristics, it was analyzed that there was a correlation between the activity, the marital status, the religion and the cognitive level. Conclusion : According to the daily activities category of the elderly, there was a difference in level of activity retention and the characteristics of daily activities correlated with the activities of the elderly. This suggests that it may be a basic data for establishing a client - centered intervention plan by considering the characteristics affecting daily living and level of activity retention of the elderly in the occupational therapy.

Two kinds of ginseng extracts were prepared and their brown color and radical scavenging activity were evaluated. The extract prepared by decoction after steaming exhibited deeper brown color and stronger radical scavenging activity than the extract prepared by decoction only. The difference in color and radical scavenging activity was greater in white ginseng than in fresh ginseng. Steaming white ginseng for 3 h was equivalent to 45 h of decoction in its brown color and radical scavenging activity. Consequently, we believe steaming process is better method than decoction to increase the biological activity of ginseng.

The present study was carried out to investigate the change of peroxidase activity of soybean seed infected with Cerrospora kikurhii. The protein content, polyphenol oxidase activity and peroxidase isozyme pattern in health and infected soybean seed were also compared. 1. The peroxidase activity was substantially higher in the infected soybean seeds than that in the healthy seeds either cracked or not. No significant differences in protein content were recognized among the seeds tested. 2. No significant differences in peroxidase activities and protein contents were notified between healthy and infected seeds from the measurements on each parts of dissected seeds, cotyledon and seedcoat, however the peroxidase activity in the seed coat of the stained seed was 2.5 times to healthy seed. 3. The activities of polyphenel oxidase were undectable in both healthy and diseased seeds. 4. The electrophoretic Patterns of the Peroridase isozyme were the same between healthy and in footed seed. 5. Therefore, the increase of peroxidase activity in infected soybean seedcoat was mainly due to the biochemical reaction against the pathogen.

In this study, we investigated changes of general components and biological activity of the fruit of Prunus mume. The average moisture content of the fruit ranged from 88.34-90.04%. Crude protein and crude fat contents were not significantly different among samples. During ripening, crude protein decreased and crude fat increased. The level of polyphenols in the fruit gradually increased during ripening. An antimicrobial activity test indicated that methanol extracts had the highest activity and that the antimicrobial activity increased gradually with harvest time. Antimicrobial substances in methanol extracts of the fruit maintained their activity after heating at $100^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes and were unaffected by changes in pH. The antioxidant activities of extracts isolated with different solvents were: methanol> ethylacetate > water> ether> hexane. Antioxidant activity was not significantly different for different harvest times. The antioxidant index of the methanol extract was also the highest in electron donating activity.
