  • Soy is an important food in Asia and many studies have suggested that the low incidences of chronic diseases in Asian countries are associated with diets that are rich in soy. Soy contains many kinds of phytochemicals, and soy isoflavones and soyasaponins have received considerable attention. Twelve isoflavone components have been isolated from soy: three aglycones (daidzein, genistein, and glycitein), and their respective nine glucosidic conjugates. Soy isoflavones are similar in structure to estrogen and exhibit both estrogenic and antiestrogenic activities. Soy isoflavones exhibit anticancer activity, can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease, and are beneficial to brain and bone health. Soyasaponins are divided into three groups (A, B, and E saponins), and they exhibit hypocholesterolemic, anticancer, hepatoprotective, antioxidative, and anti-human-immunodeficiency-virus effects. Despite the abundant literature suggesting that soy isoflavones and soyasaponins have potential applications in preventive medicine, further research is needed to standardize dosages and ensure their efficacy.

  • We report on the basis of experiments that magnetic domain structures exhibit a transition between single and dendrite domains with respect to the width of ferromagnetic nanowires. This transition is directly observed in CoFe/Pt multilayered nanowires having a width in the range of 580 nm to 4.2 ${\mu}m$ with a magnetic force microscope. Nanowires wider than 1.5 ${\mu}m$ show typical dendrite domain patterns, whereas the nanowires narrower than 690 nm exhibit single domain patterns. The transition occurs gradually between these widths, which are similar to the typical widths of the dendrite domains. Such a transition affects the strength of the domain wall propagation field; this finding was made by using a time-resolved magneto-optical Kerr effect microscope, and shows that the domain wall dynamics also exhibit a transition in accordance with the domain configuration.

  • This paper investigates average access times on eight asynchronous priority levels of FDDI MAC protocol with parameters on offered loads, message sizes, and number of stations. In case of parameter with offered loads, higher priority levels exhibit similar variances and in case of parameter with message sizes and number of satations, higher priority levels exhibit almost invariables but as increase of message sizes, increase only a small amount of access time on the other hand, as number of stations increase, average access times decrease little by little. But in case of lowest priority level. average access times decrease little by little. But in case of lowest priority level, average access times exhibit relatively large variances about above three parameters.

  • The purpose of this investigation was to determine the inhibition on $Na^+,\;K^+$-ATPase, cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase and platelet activation by marine sterols isolated from octocorals. Three marine polyhydroxysterols, 7${\alpha},\;8{\alpha}-epoxy-3b{\beta},\;5{\alpha},\;6{\alpha}-trihydroxycholestane (1),\;24-methyl-7{\alpha},\;8{\alpha}-epoxy-3{\beta},\;5{\alpha},\;6{\alpha}-trihydroxycholest-22-ene (2),\;and\;7{\alpha},\;8{\alpha}-epoxy-3{\beta},\;5{\alpha},\;6{\alpha}-trihydroxycholest-22-ene (3)$, were isolated from the Gorgonian Acabaria undulata. Five marine sterols(compound 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) were isolated from the soft coral Alcyonium gracillimum. Three marine polyhydroxysterols (1, 2, 3) and pregna-1. 20-diene-3-one (8) exhibit a potent inhibitory effect on rabbit platelet aggregation induced by collagen and thrombin. Those polyhydroxysterols also exhibit a potent inhibitory effect on cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. Compound 6 with an unusual cyclic enolether exhibit a inhibitory effect on $Na^+,\;K^+$-ATPase.

  • The main objective of this dissertation is to find out the measurement methods of household work organization and manger style and the quantitative analysis methods of influential factors on household work organization and manager style. Subjects were homemakers living in metropolitan , medium and small cities. Questionnaires were sent to subjects and usable responses were 1139 out of 1239 received questionnaires. Data collected through both preliminary and main survey were analyzed by using frequencies, percentage, analysis of variance, chi-square test and pearson's correlation analysis. Results are as follows; 1) The degree of household work organization was distributed on upper middle level exceeding middle score. Among subsystems of household work such as task assignment , test regularization, task arrangement and task standardization. subjects show the highest positive attitude in task standardization. 2) The characteristics of management in household work have task centered orientation. By the prority of task centered orientation, the order was integrated style. dedicated style. It means that the most ideal style is an integrated style which accounts for one-third of the total homemakers. 3) Household organization's subsystems and household work manager style are related with socio-demographic variables. Integrated style is significantly related with homemaker's employment and having helpers for household work. homemakers who are employed and have helpers for household work exhibit high scores in task assignment and task arrangement. Dedicated style is significantly related with homemaker's age and the number of children. Homemakers who are older and have many children exhibit high scores in task assignment. Related style is significantly related with marriage duration, education level and income level. Homemakers who have a long marriage duration exhibit high scores in task assignment and who have high education and income level exhibit high scores in task regularization. Seperates style is significantly related with homemaker's age m marriage duration an family life cycle. homemakers who ar older, have a long marriage duration and are of late stage in family life cycle exhibit seperated style and high scores in organization. To summarize research findings, household work manger and household work organization are related with family life experiences, and task assignment is an influential variable on manager style. in conclusion, it is evident that household work organization emphasizes efficiency as cognitive component and such organization. Finally it is necessary to broaden this research considered social psychological variables. And also it needs to build household manger style models appropriate fro the characteristics of each style.

  • As contest exhibits have been activated, a variety of organizations are holding contest with various purposes. Analysis on the guidelines prepared by various sponsoring bodies ranging from public organizations to privately owned businesses shows that sponsoring bodies tend to possess copyrights of entries. Parts of guidelines of contest exhibit are the contract. While sponsoring body shows its opinion on copyright through guidelines, individual participant tends to consider it simply as a form to submit for contest exhibit rather than a contract. Now is the time to bring out a question in respect of the copyright on the contest exhibit. The important fact is that copyright on corporate contents is important, but copyright on individual contents is equally important and it must be protected and respected. This study aims to bring out a question on copyright by analyzing possession and infringement of copyright that stands forth in the guidelines of contest exhibit. Provisions on copyright of contest exhibit play a role as a contract. Provisions on copyright of contest exhibit shall be the ones which can be understood and accepted by both sponsoring body and winner who are the A and B of a contract. For this, change in perception of sponsoring bodies ranging from public organizations to privately owned businesses with prominent position is strongly required. For the foregoing, First, Indication of Copyright: Clear and concrete terms must be used. Second, Scope of Interpretation: Concrete and detailed indication must be made for preventing indication that allows comprehensive interpretation. Third, Cost for Author's Property Right: In case sponsoring body needs to possess or use the author's property right of prize-winning work, proper rights on use considering prize money corresponding to possession or use of author's property right must be indicated. Fourth, Term of Use: The term for using author's property right must be indicated. Fifth, Scope of Rights: The scope of author's property right that sponsoring body requires must be limited and indicated. Sixth, Mutual Respect: Items related to copyright must be indicated on the basis of the concept of bilateral contract founded on mutual consideration and respect, not on the concept of unilateral contract.
