The antibiotic-producing Streptomyces strains were isolated from the soils of various localities in Yeang-Kwang and tested for the activity against some of gram positive and negative microorganisms, especially against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results are summarized as follows. 1. A total of 1464 Streptomyces strains were isolated from 336 soil samples. Of all the strains tested, 636 strains of the isolates showed antibiotic activity against either gram positive or negative test organisms. And 408 of the 636 strains were strongly active against one or all of those test­organisms. 2. Ninety-three of Streptomyces strains among the active isolates showed the antibiotic activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and 24 of 93 strains showed the strong antibiotic activity against all of the test organisms i.e. Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi and Shigella jlexneri. 3. Antibiotic-producing Streptomyces strains active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated from the soil samples taken from vegetable field, paddy field, sandy ground and roadway, but not isolated from the soil taken from dwelling area, grass field and piers.

The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of maternal perception of children's temperament on parenting stress. The subjects of this study were 303 mothers of four to six-year-old. Evaluations of Parent and Teacher temperament questionnaire for Children 3-7 years of age(Tomas, Chess, & Kom, 1977)(korean version) was used to measure children's temperament, and PDH(Parenting Daily Hassles) was used to measure maternal perception of parenting stress. Data were analyzed by descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Peasons's Correlation and multiple regression analysis and Duncan test for post test by SPSS WIN program. The results of this study were as follows; First, the average level of maternal perception of children's temperament was the highest in the category of adaptability and the lowest in the category of threshold of responsiveness. Second, maternal perception of children's temperament was significantly different according to children's sex. Boys were perceived higher than girls for the category of activity level. Third, the degree of daily hassles was explained by adaptability, the quality of mood, and activity level relatively, while the intensity of parenting stress could be predicted orderly by adaptability, threshold of responsiveness, attention span & persistence, regularity, and activity level. Fourth, mother's daily hassles was explained 22% valiance by children's temperament such as adaptability, the quality of mood, and activity level. Future research should be done to identify the interaction of temperamental factors.

As a result of carrying out t-test against the learning activity that used the learning materials designed by level, significant disparity was found. Thus, it was found that hte effect of this learning activity became more visible with lapse of time. But the major cause by which there appeared small significant disparity as a result of testing is that the units of experiment were limited and that the period of using the learning materials was not long. In an analysis on the results of interest test, the experimental class also appeared to show the average score that was higher than that of the comparative class by 0.10 after converting a decimal point. The outcome of attitude test was that the experimental class showed a higher average score by 0.11, as a result of converting a decimal point, than that of the comparative class. So, a large number of students showed an improved reaction. But, there seemed some problems of the learning materials or the method of progressing the activity in changing under achievement students or students who avoided studying math. When the effect of the level-based learning activity was investigated, more than 80% of the experimental class’s students showed a positive reaction. Thus, it could be judged that students, who felt some burden at studying math, might be served more largely, not by teacher’s uniform instruction, but by an individual learning using the level-based learning materials that enabled them to do a systematic self-learning for themselves.

A rapid, inexpensive enzymatic method is proposed for indirect water quality testing in terms of heavy metal toxicity. The activity of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was applied for heavy metal toxicity test as an effective criterion in water quality. The toxicity of Pb (lead) and Cd (cadmium) for water flea, Moina macrocopa, were evaluated for 2-8 days with variables of mobilization ability. And the reproduction impairment of Moina macrocopa were investigated as the parameter of chronic toxicity test for Pb and Cd. As a result, the EC$_{50}$ for immobilization of Moina macrocopa were Pb and Cd were 1.6749 and 0.4683, respectively. The values of reproductive impairment to Moina macrocopa for Pb and Cd were 9.5938 and 8.3264 in EC$_{50}$ A significant alteration of G6PDH (Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase) activity of Moina macrocopa was observed when Cd and Pb were treated in media. The results obtained indicate that G6PDH activity of Moina macrocopa can be used as an indicative parameter in aquatic toxicity tests for heavy metals.als.

The activities of s-amylase, ${\alpha}-amylase$ and protease of three combination products containing digestive enzymes, antacids and herbal drugs on the Korean market were estimated. The effects of antacids and herbal drugs on the activities of digestive enzymes were investigated. Starch-saccarifying activity of s-amylase, starch-dextrinizing activity of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and protein-peptic activity of protease were estimated by Somogy, Mc'Credy, and Casein-Folin method, respectivley. The optimal pH of s-amylase, ${\alpha}-amylase$ and protease were pH 5.0, 4.8 and 7.0, rcspectively. The digestive activities at optimal pH continued about eight hours. The digestive activities of individual enzymes were reduced to 40-90% by antacids and were affected somewhat positively or negatively by herbal drugs. Enzyme activities of the combination products were also affected by pH and reaction time.

In the present study, we investigated the neutralization activity of various antimicrobials against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) as well as interaction between two antimicrobials (enrofioxacin and coilstin) using checkerboard method. The neutralization activity of antimicrobials used in the test was assayed by means of LAL chromogenic test after reaction of LPS with colistin, enorfioxacin, ampicillin, polymyxin B, oxytetracycline, streptomycin, and erythromycin. As the results, the neutralization activity of coltstin and polymixin B had a more stronger than that of tested other antimicrobials. In bacterial culture broth, the best neutralization activity of the antibiotics was also shown to coltstin and polymixin B. Meanwhile, It was shown to have synergism between enorfloxacin and coltstin on the basts of FIC (fractional inhibition concentration). The FIC of enorfioxacin-colistin combinations was 0.50-1.03 to Staphylococcus aureus R-209, 1.03-1.06 to Salmonella typhimurium, 0.75-1.25 to Bordetella Bronchtseptica and 1.02-1.25 to E. coli K88ab. On the basts of the above results, the present study may be of clinical usefulness in the choice of an antibiotic therapy for severe sepsts in animals.

Objective : The purpose of this report was to provide the information activity and safety of Palmul-tang by analyzing domestic/international papers and theses about Palmul-tang, Methods: Domestic/international papers and theses related to Palmul-tang were reviewed and analyzed, These papers were then classified by year, experimental method and subject, Results: The following results were obtained in this study. 1. The study of Palmul-tang started from 1985 and was continuously increased. The study was mainly forcused on experimental model rather than clinical study. 2. As these studies were classified by subject, papers related to immune intensification were most abundant by 20 papers, Besides there were several papers related to cardiovascular activity, reproductive activity, anti-apoptotic activity and cerebral hemodynamics. 3. Among the papers related to immune intensification. the studies on recovery of fatigue were mostabundant by 10 papers and the studies of on immune cell and cytokine express were six. In addition to. several studies were associated with anti-cancer activity and anti-allergic activity. Recovery of fatigue was determined by measurement of fatigue markers in a living body such as lactate. CPK, pyruvate and triglyceride and assessment of exercise capability of animals such as swimming test. slopped plate test. Rota-rod test, and activity cage test after Palmul-tang treatment. 4. According to experimental data. it is supported that Palmul-tang has been used as Qi and Blood intensifier with immune intensification and recovery of fatigue. 5. The paper related to safety of Palmul-tang was only one paper which is studied on acute toxicity of Palmul-tang with experiment with ICR mouse. There was no study on evaluating safety by observing liver and kidney functions after Palmul-tang treatment Conclusion: Palmul-tang is being used in various ways associating with immune intensification. cardiovascular activity and reproductive activity. However. studies on efficacy and mechanism of Palmul-tang should be conducted at the molecular biology level and studies on safety of Palmul-tang need to be completed at the clinical level.
