생체에 투입되는 이물질(xenobiotics)들이 돌연변이를 일으키고 나아가서는 암을 유발시키게 되는 것은 이물질들이 생체내에서 어떤 양상으로 대사되느냐, 즉 이물질이 독성화되는 과정과 해독되는 과정에 있어서의 활성도의 차이에 따라 좌우되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 인삼이 이물질 대사 및 해독작용에 어떤영향을 미치는가를 밝혀보기 위하여 동물 실험을 통하여 발암물질로 알려진 Benzopyrene과 그 외 다른 유독한 화학약물들의 대사과정에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 보았다. 인삼투여군에 있어서 cyt. P-450와 관련된 Monooxy-genase system이 선택적으로 유도되었고 또 해독작용에 필수적인 Conjugation도 현저히 상승되었다. 이와 같은 이물질 해독작용의 선택적 유도는 인삼이 이물질 대사과정에 영향을 미쳐 독성물질 해독 항진효능이 있음을 제시해 주는 것으로 해석되어진다.

Saccharothrix algeriensis NRRL B-24137 produces naturally different dithiolopyrrolone derivatives. The enzymatic activity of pyrrothine N-acyltransferase was determined to be responsible for the transfer of an acyl group from acyl-CoA to pyrrothine core. This activity was also reported to be responsible for the diversity of the dithiolopyrrolone derivatives. Based on this fact, nine dithiolopyrrolone derivatives were produced in vitro via the crude extract of Sa. algeriensis. Three of them have never been obtained before by natural fermentation: acetoacetyl-pyrrothine, hydroxybutyryl-pyrrothine, and dimethyl thiolutin (holomycin). Two acyltransferase activities, acetyltransferase and benzoyltransferase catalyzing the incorporation of linear and cyclic acyl groups to the pyrrothine core, respectively, were biochemically characterized in this crude extract. The first one is responsible for formation of acetyl-pyrrothine and the second for benzoyl-pyrrothine. Both enzymes were sensitive to temperature changes: For example, the loss of acetyltransferase and benzoyltransferase activity was 53% and 80% respectively after pre-incubation of crude extract for 60 min at $20^{\circ}C$. The two enzymes were more active in neutral and basal media (pH 7-10) than in the acidic one (pH 3-6). The optimum temperature and pH of acetyltransferase were $40^{\circ}C$ and 7, with a $K_m$ value of $7.9{\mu}M$ and a $V_{max}$ of $0.63{\mu}M/min$ when acetyl-CoA was used as limited substrate. Benzoyltransferase had a temperature and a pH optimum at $55^{\circ}C$and 9, a $K_m$ value of $14.7{\mu}M$, and a $V_{max}$ of $0.67{\mu}M/min$ when benzoyl-CoA was used as limited substrate.

기 발표된 보고서에 따르면, 철근콘크리트 건축물을 전과정 평가 한 결과, 온실가스가 신축과 해체 등을 제외한 냉 난방 사용의 유지관리 단계에서 전체 발생량의 70 % 이상 배출한다고 보고하였다. 이는 건축물로 인한 온실가스 배출량을 줄이기 위해서는 유지관리 단계가 중요하고, 건축물의 설계단계 부터 에너지 소비를 최소화할 수 있는 유지관리 계획이 필요함을 의미한다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 건축물의 사용단계에서 냉방에너지 소비를 줄일 수 있는 방법으로 상변화물질(Phase Change Material)인 파라핀 시트를 건축물의 개구부 또는 벽체 마감재로의 활용 가능성을 검토하였다. 온도조절이 가능한 챔버 내부에 파라핀 시트를 적용한 축열실과 적용하지 않은 일반실을 제작하고, 대류와 직사일광의 조건으로 각각 챔버 온도를 상승시켜 실험체 내부의 온도변화를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 파라핀 시트를 적용한 모든 조건의 실험체에서 상변화 온도인 $26^{\circ}C$ 전후에서, 일반실보다 $1{\sim}3^{\circ}C$정도의 실내온도 상승을 지연시키는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 외부 에너지가 상변화에 소비되어 온도변화가 없는 잠열축열재를 건축물 마감재로 활용함으로써, 여름철 실내 냉방 에너지 소비를 줄일 수 있다는 사실을 확인하였다.

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material for power device applications due to its wide band gap (3.26 eV for 4H-SiC), high critical electric field and excellent thermal conductivity. The Schottky barrier diode is the representative high-power device that is currently available commercially. A field plate edge-terminated 4H-SiC was fabricated using a lift-off process for opening the Schottky contacts. In this case, Ni/Ti dual-metal contacts were unintentionally formed at the edge of the Schottky contacts and resulted in the degradation of the electrical properties of the diodes. The breakdown voltage and Schottky barrier height (SBH, ${\Phi}_B$) was 107 V and 0.67 eV, respectively. To form homogeneous single-metal Ni/4H-SiC Schottky contacts, a deposition and etching method was employed, and the electrical properties of the diodes were improved. The modified SBDs showed enhanced electrical properties, as witnessed by a breakdown voltage of 635 V, a Schottky barrier height of ${\Phi}_B$=1.48 eV, an ideality factor of n=1.04 (close to one), a forward voltage drop of $V_F$=1.6 V, a specific on resistance of $R_{on}=2.1m{\Omega}-cm^2$ and a power loss of $P_L=79.6Wcm^{-2}$.

우리나라 감자 춘하작물재배의 주장려품종이고 휴면기간이 긴 남작(Irish Cobbler)을 추작할때 효과적인 최아처리법을 구명하기 위하여, 대관령산종서를 고려대학교 농과대학 실험농장에시 춘작 증식하여 추작용종서로 사용하고, 1974 및 '75의 양년도에 걸쳐서 농대구내수음하 설치한 최아상(그림 1)에서 구당 60편의 3반복 난괴법으론 최아시험을 실시하고, 실험농장 포장에서 구당 1.8$m^2$(15주)의 3반복 난괴법으로 포장재배시험을 실시한 성적을 요약하면 다음과 같으며, 시험기간(1975년)중의 기상개요는 그림 2와 같았다. 1. 최아처리법과 발아(부표 1~7, 그림 3~5) (a) GA(Gibberellin)처리는 발아가 빨라서 7~8일 에 발아하여 최아소요일수가 약 10일이며, 발아가 균일하고, 부패가 적어 건전발아개체비율도 높으나, 편당발아본수가 3~4본으르 많고, 싹이 세장하며 발근이 없었다. (b) Ethrel처리는 발아가 훨씬 GA보다 늦어서 대체로 최아소요일수가 20~25일이며, 발아의 균일성과 부패및 건전발아개체비율에서 GA보다 고간 못하나, 편당발아본수가 1~2본으로 적고 싹이 단태건실하며 발근이 극히 양호하였다. (c) GA와 Ethrel의 혼합처리는 GA처리보다 1~2일 발아가 늦으나 싹은 비교적 건실하며, 그밖의 발아상은 GA처리와 거의 같았다. (d) Ethylene Chlorohydrin처리는 Ethrel처리와 거의 같은 발아상을 보이나 발아에 23~26일이 소요되고, 최아중의 부패도 많았다. (e) 6-Benzyladenine처리는 Ethrel처리처럼 싹이 단태건실하고 편당발아본수도 1~2본으로 적으며, 발근도 보이나 발아에 22~28일이 소요되고. 발아가 균일하지 못하며, 절단하여 처리할 경우에는 부패가 심해질 우려가 컸다. (f) 약제별 최적처리법은 다음과 같이 보였다. GA처리 : 절단서면 1~2ppm, 전형서면 2~5ppm에 60분처리. Ethrel처리 : 절단서면 500ppm, 전형서면 1000~2000ppm에 60분처리. GA와 Ethrel의 혼합처리 : 절단서면 GA 1~2ppm＋Ethrel 250~500ppm, 전형서면 GA 5ppm＋Ethrel 250~500ppm, 60분처리. 2. 처리법과 부패 (a) 18~24시간의 GA처리는 거의 완전한 부패를 초래하였다(표 2) (b) Ethylene Chlorohydrin처리는 심한 부패를 유발하고(표 2), 6-Benzyladenine처리도 많은 부패를 유발하는(부표 7) 경향이 보였다. (c) 처리중에 교반하여 표피가 갈리게 한것은 전량 부패하였다(부표 1) (d) 종서에 칼로 3-4곳에 자상을 내서 GA처리를 한 것은 발아조장의 효과가 없고, 부패를 조장하는 경향이 보였다(부표 1) 3. 상토와 발아(부표 1) (a) 최아상의 상토로써 부식질세토를 사용하였을 경우에는 사상의 경우보다 부패가 없고 발아도 양호 하였다. (b) 사상의 경우에는 세사보다 조사가 양호하였다. 4. 처리시기와 발아 (a) 7월 15일처리에 비하여 8월 24일처리의 경우에 Ethrel의 전형서처리에서는 발아가 4일 빨랐으나, Ethrel 절단서처리 및 GA처리에서는 발아가 거의 빨라지지 않았다(그림 9) (b) 처리시기가 늦어져서 휴면이 경과될수록 발아와 발근이 조장되는 경향이 보였다(부표 8) (c) 최아기간이 매우 고온건조하였던 경우(8월 14일처리)에는 심한 부패를 보였다(그림 10) 5. 처리법 및 정식기와 수량 (a) 정식기를 같게 할 경우의 수량은 Ethrel>GAㆍEthrel 혼합>GA 처리의 순위로서 정식당시의 싹의 건실도 및 발근상태와 깊은 관련이 있어보였다. Ethylene Chlorohydrin처리는 포장결주가 많아서 수량이 적었다(그림 11) (b) 처리기를 같게 하여 정식기가 GA보다 Ethrel 처리가 15일 늦어 질 경우에는 Ethrel이 GA처리보다 감수경향을 보였다(부표 10) (c) 어느 처리에서나 정식기가 빠를수록 증수되는 경향이 보였다(부표 10) (d) GA처리 조식의 경우에는 고간 도장하는 경향이 보였으나, 기타처리 및 GA처리라도 만식의 경우에는 도장이 보이지 않았다(그림 12)

The genetic defects in human gametes and embryos can cause adverse effects on overall reproductive events. Biopsy of embryos for preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) offers a new possibility of having children free of the genetic disease. In addition, advanced embryo culture method may enhance the effectiveness of embryo biopsy for the practical application of PGD. This experimental study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of coculture on the development in vitro of biopsied mouse embryos as a preclinical model for PGD of human embryos. Embryos were obtained after in vitro fertilization (IVF) from F1 hybrid mice (C57BLfemale/CBAmale). Using micromanipulation, 1, 2, 3 or 4 blastomeres of 8-cell stage embryos were aspirated through a hole made in the zona pellucida by zona drilling (ZD) with acidic Tyrode's solution (ATS). After biopsy of blastomeres, embryos were cultured in vitro for 110 hours in Ham's F-10 supplemented with 0.4% BSA or cocultured on the monolayer of Vero cells in the same medium. The frequence of blastocyst formation were recorded, and the embryos beyond blastocyst stage were stained with 10% Giemsa to count the total number of nuclei in each embryo. There was no significant difference in the blastocyst formation between the zona intact control group and the zona drilling (ZD) only, or biopsied groups. The hatching rate of all the treatment groups except 4/8 group was significantly higher than that of control group. In all the treatment groups, there was a significant reduction in the mean cell number of embryos beyond blastocyst stage ($50.2{\pm}14.0$ in control group vs. $41.2{\pm}7.9$ in ZD, $39.3{\pm}8.8$ in 7/8, $29.7{\pm}6.4$ in 6/8, $25.1{\pm}5.7$ in 5/8, and $22.1{\pm}4.3$ in 4/8 groups, p<0.05). When the same treatments were followed by coculture with Vero cells, a similar pattern was seen in the blastocyst formation and the hatching rate. However, in all the treatment groups, there was a significant increase in the mean cell number of embryos beyond blastocyst stage with coculture, compared with the parallel groups without coculture. In the cleavage rate of biopsied blastomeres cultured for 110 hours after IVF, there was no significant difference between coculture and non-coculture groups (87.2% vs. 78.7%). However, the mean cell number of embryos developed from the biopsied blastomeres was significantly higher in coculture group ($11.5{\pm}4.7\;vs.\;5.9{\pm}1.9$, p<0.05). In conclusion, biopsy of mouse embryos after ZD with ATS is a safe and highly efficient method for PGD, and coculture with Vero cells showed a positive effect on the development in vitro of biopsied mouse embryos and blastomeres as a preclinical model for PGD of human embryos.

The desire to maintain health is increasing, consequently the role of nursing which has as one chief aim the solving of man′s basic problems is more and more important. Today, in spite of a growing concern about the nursing activities which nurses provide for individual human having specific needs, clinically in fact, it is questionable that individual′s expectation of nursing activities agrees with nurse′s performance of nursing activities. In this study the importance and agreement of the importance of the nursing activities during the hospitalized puerperal period as viewed by women in the puerperal period and by nurses caring for them, were assessed. The present study was undertaken in an attempt to furnish the basic data for expediting the progress of research activities in this area and further to be helpful in planning maternity nursing practice. The study population defined and selected was nurses (13) caring for women in the puerperal period and doing duty on obstetric & gynecologic ward at Y. hospital, and the women in puerperal period (39) as sum of 3 women selected by each nurse during the period of May 13th-June 4th 1976. The study data was collected by the direct interview method based on the questionnaire which the investigator made out. The study result was analyzed by percentage, t - test. The findings can be summarized as follows: 1. General characteristics of nurses doing duty on puerperal ward: a. Nurses′average age was 24.8 years old. b. 84.6% had educational background of 4 years of college. c. 69.2% had a religion. d. 53.8% were married. e. 53.8% had clinical experience of 1 year -3 years. f, 61.5% did duty on puerperal ward during 1 year -3 years. g. 46.2% desired to do duty on obstetric ? gynecologic ward. 2. General characteristics of the women who were studied during their puerperal period: a. Women′s average age was 26.4 years old. b. 79.5% had educational background above high school. c. 56.4% had a religion. d. 84.6% had living standard above medium. e. 89.7% had no occupation. f, 53,8% had previous hospitalization experience. g. 56.4% had previous delivery experience. 3. Examining the importance of 39 nursing activities during puerperal period selected by investigator, studied group of women considered that the most important nursing activity was "Record precisely about condition, medical treatment and nursing activity results etc". Nurses considered that the most important nursing activity was "Notice whether having pain and care for that". Both groups considered that the least important nursing activity was "Talk with her about topics such as news, hobbies, other interests". 4. Examining the importance of nursing activities in 4 specific categories, studied group of women considered that the most important nursing activity in physical nursing category was "Be sure of safety measure to prevent accidents, injuries", and nurses considered that the most important nursing activity was "Make her sleep and rest sufficiently". Studied group of women considered that the most important nursing activity in psychological category was "Explain about medical treatment and nursing activity ahead of time so she knows what to expect" , and nurses considered that the most important nursing activity was "Explain about puerperal period so she understands". Studied group of women considered that the most important nursing activity in relation to medical care was "Record precisely about condition, medical treatment and nursing activity results etc.", and nurses considered that the most important nursing activity was "Observing, cleaning and protecting the perineum" Studied group of women considered that the most important nursing activity in nursing category in preparation for discharge was "Instruct about personnel hygiene during puerperal period", and nurses considered that the most important nursing activity was "Instruct self-care to protect the perineum". 5. The analysis of this study showed a significant amount of disagreement computed by subtracting the nurse′s score from the patient′s score. Studied group of women put greater importance on physical nursing category, psychological nursing category, nursing in relation to medical care, than the nurses. These results were statistically significant at 0.01 level.
