The inhibition characteristics of chlorsulfuron [CHL, 2-chloro-N-[{ (4-methoxy-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino}carbonyl]benzenesulfonamide] and imazaquin [IMA, 2-{4,5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methy-lethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl}-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid] on acetolactate synthase(ALS) activity of corn plants were investigated. CHL and IMA rapidly inhibited ALS activity of corn plants in vitro. Their $I_{50}$ values for ALS activity were 100nM and $5{\mu}M$, respectively, indicating that CHL had 50 times more inhibitory effect on ALS activity than IMA. The first applied herbicide had a dominant inhibitory effect on ALS activity when the two herbicides were applied sequentially. Branched-chain amino acids, valine(Val), leucine(Leu), and isoleucine(Ile) showed a feedback inhibition on ALS activity ; Val or Leu had a more inhibitory effect on ALS activity than Ile. Branchedchain amino acids and CHL or IMA exhibited an additive effect on inhibiting ALS activity. This suggests that branched-chain amino acids inhibit ALS activity by a different mechanisms) from that of CHL or IMA. Apparent ALS activity, which was measured on the basis of the conversion of pyruvate to acetolactate, was decreased by the addition of 2-ketobutyrate into the ALS reaction mixture in a concentration-dependent manner. In addition, kinetic studies revealed that CHL acts as a noncompetitive inhibitor, while IMA acts as an uncompetitive inhibitor to ALS with respect to pyruvate.

우리나라 유통상토에 대한 물리적 표준분석법을 설정하기 위한 연구를 실시하였다. 국내 시중에 유통되고 있는 53개 품목의 원예용 상토와 9개 품목의 수도용 상토를 대상으로 설정된 분석법을 적용하여 실험하였다. 입자밀도의 측정은 가스형 피크노메타(Micromeritics Co. Model 1305)를 사용하면 속도와 정확성 면에서 매우 유리하였다. 용적밀도는 구미에서 Sandbox법에 의한 용적밀도를 기본으로 하기 때문에 이와 유사한 성적을 얻을 수 있는 다양한 실험을 한 결과, 추다짐법(Plunger compaction method)이 가장 유의성 있는 측정 방법으로 밝혀졌다. 한편 가스형 피크노메타법에 의한 우리나라 유통상토의 입자밀도는 원예용이 1.93, 수도용이 2.43 Mg m$^{-3}$로 나타났으며, 추다짐법에 의한 용적밀도는 원예용이 0.22, 수도용이 1.01 Mg m$^{-3}$로 각각 나타났다. 수분함량은 105$^{\circ}C$ 건조기에서 16시간 건조하여 수도용상토는 (최초 무게-건조 후 무게) / (건조 후 무게) $\times$ 100으로, 원예용상토는 (최초무게 - 건조 후 무게) / (최초 무게) $\times$ 100으로 하였다. 보수력은 주로 저압용으로서 Eijkelkamp사의 Sandbox법을 사용하여 0.5, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 ㎪의 수분장력 상태의 수분함량을 조사하였다. 포화수리전도도는 직경 5cm$\times$높이 20cm인 아크릴 원통을 이용하여 정수위별에 의한 포화수리전도도를 측정하였다. 신분석법에 의한 유통상토의 수분함량은 원예용이 평균 46.34%, 수도용이 평균 16.89%이었고 원예용 상토의 EAW는 28.4%, WBC 7.01%, OMP는 5.60 ㎪로 나타났으며, 육묘를 위한 적정 수분함량은 44.41%이었고 포화수리전도도는 1.71 cm $min^{-1}$이었다. 상토 평량시 무게를 비교한 결과 상토 부피를 달리하여도 고도의 유의성이 있었고, 상토 20cc의 평균무게는 4.92g(2.08-8.83g)이었다. 상토의 EC 측정시 상토:물의 비율이 1:2(v:v)와 1:5(v:v)분석치에 2.5배한 EC 값과는 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었으며, 유럽법과 일본법(전농)과의 관계는 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었다 또한 새로운 분석법(v:v 1:5)으로 측정한 EC의 평균값은 국내산 0.64, 수입산 0.33 dS m$^{-1}$이 었다. 상토의 pH 측정시 상토:물의 비율을 1:2(v:v)와 1:5(v:v)와의 관계에서는 정의 상관관계를 보였으며, 유럽법과 일본법(전농)과의 관계도 역시 고도의 정의 상관관계가 있었고, 신 분석법에(v:v 1:5) 의한 분포비율은 국내산, 수입산모두 pH 6.1-6.5의 범위에서 가장 높았다.

Major objectives were to evaluate effects of three schemes of bST-supplementation of Holstein cows (142.8 mg/14 d, POSILAC) during the prepartum and/or postpartum periods through 63 d (${\pm}3d$) of lactation. Measures evaluated the potential of treatments to improve body weight (BW) and body condition score (BCS), provoke changes in plasma concentrations of somatotropin (ST) and IGF-I, and improve milk yield, milk composition (percentages of protein and fat, and somatic cell counts), and several calving variables. Multiparous Holstein cows were randomly assigned to a $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement of treatments (TRT) to give four groups (I = no bST, n = 26; II = bST postpartum, n = 25; III = bST prepartum, n = 27; IV = bST prepartum and postpartum, n = 25). During the prepartum period, cows in groups I and II were not supplemented but those in groups III and IV were supplemented every 2-wk beginning 21 d before expected calving date through calving. During the first 63 DIM only cows in groups II and IV were supplemented with bST. From 64 DIM through the end of lactation cows in all groups were supplemented with the full lactation dose of bST (500 mg/14 d). The BW and BCS were recorded weekly throughout the prepartum and postpartum periods and every 2-wk beyond 70 DIM. Blood samples were collected 3-times a week for analyses of ST and IGF-I. Milk yields were recorded daily though 150 DIM. Prepartum supplementation of bST did not affect BW or BCS, but mean concentrations of ST were increased 12.2% and were 15.5% greater at calving. Overall, mean concentration of IGF-I was not affected by treatment but concentrations were greater at 1 and 2 wk before calving in bST-supplemented cows. During the first 63 DIM the BW and BCS were not affected by treatment. Significant effects of bST-supplementation were detected on concentrations of ST, IGF-I and on milk yield compared to non-supplemented cows in group I. Postpartum concentrations of ST were greater in bST-supplemented cows (TRT II and IV; +41.9 and 54.6%). However, concentrations of IGF-I were greater only in cows in group IV (+25.9%) during the postpartum period. Overall, the three bST-supplemented groups had greater actual milk yield than the control group (I) during the first 63 and 150 DIM. The actual milk yields during 63 and 150 DIM were 6.5 and 4.6 kg/d greater for cows in group IV than cows in group I and the 305-d ME milk yield also was 15.6% greater. No adverse effects of TRT were observed on calf birth weight, colostrum immunoglobulins, ease of calving or other measures evaluated.

A study was conducted to determine the effects of seed mixture and nitrogen application levels on botanical composition and forage productivity in grazing pasture. Legume forage have the ability to take nitrogen from the atmosphere and convert it into a form usable by plants. Including legumes in mixtures with grass lowers the amount of nitrogen fertilizer required to produce forages. Dry matter (DM) yield of grass-legume mixtures was more than that of grass mono-cultivated and grass+white clover+red clover mixtures was the highest as 17,391 kg/ha in legume mixture (P<0.01). The highest DM yield was in N-200 kg/ha, but it was similar between N-100 kg/ha(15,128) and N-200 kg/ha (16,017). The large decline in the proportion of grass during April to June in 2004 probably was due to the drought and summer depression in grass-legume mixtures. Grass proportions decreased by 8.2% after 2 year, and white clover was dominated in grass-white clover mixture by May 2005. Crud protein (CP) content tends to increase with increased nitrogen application level.

A series of the experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of the water-logging in continuous cropping soils of cucumber. Some of the results obtained from these experiments are summarized as follow: The values of pH in water-logged treatments were from 5.50 to 5.90. Those of EC were less than 0.3 mmhos/cm, were lower than those of control plot. The ratios of Ca/Mg, Ca/K, Mg/K respectively 2.5, 4.8, 2.0, were similar to the standard values. These changes were suitable for cucumber planting. And the number of bacteria among the microflora were determined increased from $10^6$ to $10^7\;cells/g$ dry soil, while that of the Fungi, Fusarium spp, Pythium spp, and Phythophthora spp decreased. In proportion to these changes of microflora, the ratios of B/F in water-logging plot were higher than in the control plot. The contents of Biomass-C were showed 10.47mg/100g soil to 36.12 mg/100g soil, and the contents of that in water-logging were more than in control plots.

We studied the effect of $O_2$ plasma treatments on the electrical property of Ti / Al ohmic contacts to N-face n-type GaN. The surface of N-face, n-type GaN has been treated with $O_2$ plasma for 120 s before the deposition of bilayered electrodes, Ti (50 nm) / Al (35 nm), and its contact resistance was compared with that of the reference sample without $O_2$ plasma. As a result, we found that the ohmic contact was reduced from $4.3\;{\times}\;10^{-1}\;{\Omega}cm^2$ to $1.25\;{\times}\;10^{-3}\;{\Omega}cm^2$ by applying $O_2$ plasma on the surface of n-type GaN, which was attributed to the reduction in the Schottky barrier height (SBH), caused by nitrogen vacancies formed during the $O_2$ plasma process.

This glucose isomerizing enzyme, which Actinomyces sp. (strain, K-17) produced, was inhibited by citrate, oxalate, ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid and cysteine on the enzyme reaction. This enzyme isomerized xylose to ketose as well as glucose. The Michaelis constant of this enzyme was $7.2X\;10^{-1}M.$. on D-glucose. The enzyme activity of intact cells which were harvested in the none xylose containing medium was very weak. If these intact cells of low activity were treated in the buffered xylose solution, its activity was considerably increased. After fifteen hours at $32^{\circ}C$. on xylose treatment, the enzyme activity was increased to equilibrium and the treating condition was proper at neutral pH and in aerobic state. The adequate concentration of xylose on the treatment was about 0.5 percent.

In this study based on the mass transfer theory, experiments for the evaporation rates depending on various conditions were carried out through the operation of the existing Natural Evaporation Facility in KAERI. Evaporation media were made of the cotton and polyester. Air circulation in the facility was forced by exhausting fans. The evaporation rate and the decontamination factor were calculated by the result of experiment. The evaporation rate increased as the flow rate of air supply, the feed rate of liquid waste, and the temperature of supplied air increased. As for the humidity of supplied air, the evaporation rate was getting higher as the humidity was getting lower. As the result of this study, operation conditions of the Natural Evaporation Facility are optimized as follows : The air temperature above $8^{\circ}C$, the air humidity below 70%, the air flow rate 1.14-1.47 m/sec, and the liquid waste feed rate $4.6{\ell}/hr\cdotm^2$. The decontamination factor and the radioactivity are $5.1{\times}10^3$and $4.7{\times}10^{-13}{\mu}Ci/\textrm{m}{\ell}$ respectively, at the above mentioned optimum operation conditions. The air factor in the Dalton's equation for evaporation was determined from results of experiment on the temperature, the humidity, and the flow rate of supplied air as following : $[\textit{Eh}=(0.018 + 0.0141\textitv) {\delta}textitH]$

The yield and quality of winter forage crops such as oats could increase by mixed sowing with a winter legume such as hairy vetch(Vicia villosa Roth). The purpose of this study was to improve the forage quality and productivity using Oat-Hairy vetch mixture in winter season for three years. The results of this experiments were summarized as follows. In mix seeding of oat and hairy vetch, the dry matter(DM) content of herbage was 15∼16% in fall-harvest and 19∼20% in spring-harvest. Crude protein(CP) content of hairy vetch was the highest as 30.1% and the mixture was higher than that of oat. Acid detergent fiber(ADF) and neutral detergent fiber(NDF) content of hairy vetch was lower, but in vitro dry matter digestibility(IVDMD) and total dry matter digestibility(TDN) content was higher than that of oat. Although oat showed the low yield by 3.7∼4.4 DM t/ha, the Fall-seeded-Spring-harvest hairy vetch plot showed highly production by 9.5 DM t/ha. Crude protein and TDN yield of Fall-seeded-Spring-harvest plots were higher than those of others. According to this study, the highest dry matter yield could be obtained by Fall-seeded-Spring-harvest. It would be recommend in cropping field for oat.

Three types of doenjang were prepared with regular soybean, germinated regular soybean, and a mixture of germinated regular and black soybean. After 90 days of fermentation, pH, moisture, and salt contents of doenjang were $6.01{\pm}0.01-6.72{\pm}0.01$, $53.78{\pm}0.22-57.99{\pm}0.11$, and $14.17{\pm}0.06-15.03{\pm}0.21%$, respectively, showing slight differences according to soybean germination. Amylase and protease activity of doenjang changed similarly during fermentation in all samples. Amino-type nitrogen and free amino acid content of germinated black soybean doenjang after 90 days of fermentation were $1256.21{\pm}1.86$ and 994.46 mg%, respectively, which were higher than those of other samples. A sensory evaluation of germinated regular soybean doenjang showed the highest scores for color, taste, and overall acceptability. These results suggest that high sensory quality doenjang can be prepared using germinated regular soybean and a mixture of germinated regular soybean and black soybean.
