Smaller size and higher integration of electronic systems make narrower interconnect pitch not only in chip-level but also in package-level. Moreover electronic systems are required to operate in harsher conditions, that is, higher current / voltage, elevated temperature/humidity, and complex chemical contaminants. Under these severe circumstances, electronic components respond to applied voltages by electrochemically ionization of metals and conducting filament forms between anode and cathode across a nonmetallic medium. This phenomenon is called as the Electrochemical migration

The immunomodulatory effect of aqueous extract of Inonotus obliquus, called as Chaga, was tested on bone marrow cells from chemically immunosuppressed mice. The Chaga water extract was daily administered for 24 days to mice that had been treated with cyclophosphamide (400 mg/kg body weight), immunosuppressive alkylating agent. The number of colony-forming unit (CFU)-granulocytes/macrophages (GM) and erythroid burst-forming unit (BFU-E), increased almost to the levels seen in non-treated control as early as 8 days after treatment. Oral administration of the extract highly increased serum levels of IL-6. Also, the level of $TNF-{\alpha}$ was elevated by the chemical treatment in control mice, whereas was maintained at the background level in the extract-treated mice, indicating that the extract might effectively suppress $TNF-{\alpha}$ related pathologic conditions. These results strongly suggest the great potential of the aqueous extract from Inonotus obliquus as immune enhancer during chemotherapy.

Pethidine at the dose level of 0.5 mg and 0.75 mg/100 g body weight administered for 20 days to the cycling albino rats caused decrease in the ovarian weight and its protein content. The ovarian folliculogenesis in treated rats is hampered; as a result the follicles which are at the different stages of growth underwent regression. Therefore, the number of healthy follicles is reduced and atretic follicles increased. The elevated levels of ovarian cholesterol and decreased level of glycogen in the pethidine treated rats indicates the inhibition brought in steroidogenesis, which is dependent on pituitary gonadotrophins.

Sugar consumption has been increased in recent days according to an improvement in living conditions. It is generally accepted that sugar is one of the causes of caries and that diabetes mellitus is closely related to the periodontal diseases. This investigation was designed to gain informations on the influence of overdosage of sugar and/or high blood sugar level on the periodontal tissue. 12 rats weighing about 1.5Kg were divided into 4 groups, control one and 3-day, 7-day, 14-day ones after daily administration of 30-50 gm of sucrose. The results were as follows: 1. Daily adminisration of 30-50 gm of sucrose elevated blood glucose level as much as 10-20 mg% than before. 2. Epithelial keratinization was gradually conspicuous to the dosage of sucrose. 3. The severity of inflammatory infiltration was also increased to the dosage of sucrose. 4. Inflammatory infiltration was encountered in marginal gingiva more than other periodontal tissue.

Alanine aminotransferase (AAT) is mainly synthesized in the liver, and its level in mammalian serum is elevated after acute phase induction. Here we demonstrated that sheep anti-human AAT antibody cross-reacted with amphioxus humoral fluids as well as human serum; and the concentration of AAT in the humoral fluids in amphioxus increased after the acute challenge with lipopolysaccharide, while the level of total proteins remains unchanged. These suggest the presence of the same acute phase response pattern in amphioxus, as observed in some mammalian species. Immunohistochemically, AAT was localized in the hepatic diverticulum, ovary and testis. It appears that the hepatic diverticulum in amphioxus is functionally homologous to the vertebrate liver in respect of AAT synthesis, supporting the hypothesis that the vertebrate liver evolved from the hepatic diverticulum of an amphioxus-like ancestor during early chordate evolution.

Blood lipid levels in rats with high fat-fed hyperlipemia were determined after intraperitoneal administration of a methanolic extract of Prunus davidiana Fr. stems. Administration of the methanolic extract for 6 days produced a significant decrease of blood triglyceride and total cholesterol, and the atherogenic index was also improved. In addition to the hypolipemic effect, the methanolic extract was also shown to be effective in reducing an elevated level of glucose in rats with hyperlipemia resulting from high-fat feeding. On the other hand, blood triglyceride and total cholesterol in rats fed with stock diet were not affected by administration of the methanolic extract even if there was a tendency to decrease. No significant change was also found in the level of glucose. Thus, it is suggested that this methanolic extract probably may increase the metabolic utilization only when fed with excess fat.

The mechanical stability of solder joints in electronic devices with Sn-Ag-Cu is a continuous issue since the material was applied to the industry. Various shock test methods were developed and standardized tests are used in the industry worldwide. Although it is applied for several years, the detailed mechanism of the shock induced failure mechanism is still under investigation. In this study, the effect of external temperature was observed on large Flip-chip BGA components. The weight and size of the large package produced a high strain region near the corner of the component and thus show full fracture at around 200G level shock input. The shock performance at elevated temperature, at $100^{\circ}C$ showed degradation based on board pad designs. The failure mode and potential failure mechanisms are discussed.

Ventilatory functions and arterial respiratory gases were studied in 24 patients who underwent resectional surgery for pulmonary tuberculosis. Postoperative measurements were made 24 hours, 72 hours and 7 days after surgery and the results were compared to preoperative values. Twenty-four hours postoperatively, there occurred striking increase in respiratory rate, minute ventilation, dead space ventilation and dead space tidal volume ratio, and the increase in minute ventilation was caused primarily by the increase in respiratory rate. However, alveolar ventilation, oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide elimination and respiratory quotient showed no significant postoperative changes although two of the last values showed slight decreases 24 hours after surgery. The lowest arterial oxygen saturation level was obtained 24 hours postoperatively followed by gradual rises but not to the preoperative levels until 7 days after surgery. A decreased arterial carbon dioxide tension with elevated pit was noted 24 hours after surgery, which returned to the preoperative level on the following measurement.

This study was performed to investigate the effect of dietary magenesium on stress reactions in rats having abdominal surgery. Sixty three male rats of sprague-dawley strain were blocked into 3 groups : rats fed regular magnesium (0.05% Mg: control) rats receiving regular magnesium with surgery(Mg-adeq : S) Five weeks after feeding abdominal surgery was performed and randomly chosen 7 rats from each group were sacrificed on 1, 3 and 5 days after surgery. Te following were found ; 1) Rats fed marginal magnesium showed significantly elevated urinary urea nitrogen urinary potassium and plasma glucose compared controls only one day after abdominal surgery but not 3 days or 5 days after surgery 2) Rats fed adequate magnesium did not show any significant change in metabolic stress indicator after surgery. 3) Plasma free fatty acid and cortisol level were not different among groups. 4) Decreased plasma magnesium and potassium level were found in rats fed marginal magne-sium and sacrificed one day and three days after surgery.
