We show that an Artinian O-sequence $h_0,h_1,{\cdots},h_{d-1},h_d\;=\;h_{d-1},h_{d+l}\;>\;h_d$ of codimension 3 is not level when $h_{d-1}\;=\;h_d\;=\;d + i\;and\;h{d+1}\;=\;d+(i+1)\;for\;i\;=\;1,\;2,\;and\;3$, which is a partial answer to the question in [9]. We also introduce an algorithm for finding noncancelable Betti numbers of minimal free resolutions of all possible Artinian O-sequences based on the theorem of Froberg and Laksov in [2].

The stability difference of metmyoglobin in $H_2O$ and $D_2O$ at pH 5.7 and pH 7.0 toward pressure denaturation is studied. Metmyoglobin is denatured in $D_2O$ at smaller pressure than in $H_2O$. The stability difference in $H_2O$ and $D_2O$ is more pronounced at pH 5.7 than at pH 7. The main reasons for the stability difference in $H_2O$ and $D_2O$are the difference in positive charge due to $H^+$and $D^+$ binding to the protein in $H_2O$ and $D_2O$, and the structural change that accompany deuteration.

The phytomass and productivity of the evergreen needle pines(Pinus densiflora and Pinus rigida) and of the deciduous broad- leaved oaks(Quercus acutissima, Quercus variabililis and Quercus mongolica) in the watershed forests of South Han River, central part of Korea was estimated by the allometry. The allometic relations between D$^2$H and dry weight of stem(Ws), branches(Wb) and leaves(Wl) of these forests were as follows: Pinus densiflora community : logWs=0.58482D$^2$H-0.42417 logWb=0.6234D$^2$H-1.2321 logWl=0.2247D$^2$H-0.09359 Pinus rigida community : logWs=0.9218D$^2$H-1.4692 logWb=1.0064D$^2$H-2.2278 logWl=0.6275D$^2$H-1.1715 Quercus acutissima community : logWs=0.96659D$^2$H-1.56975 logWb=0.86315D$^2$H-2.17944 logWl=0.79876D$^2$H-1.97137 Quercus variabilis community : logWs=0.4753D$^2$H＋0.20026 logWb=0.5725D$^2$H-0.92006 logW1=0.61649D$^2$H-1.4288 Quercus momgolica community : logWs=0.5526D$^2$H-0.1228 logWb=0.5188D$^2$H-0.9787 logWl=0.7754D$^2$H-2.6273 From the above formulae, the phytomass of Pinus densiflora was estimated to be much as 1,200,000 ton, Pinus rigida 610,000 ton, Quercus acutissima 289 ton, Quercus variabilis 2,800ton and Quercus mongolica 570,000 ton in the surveyed area, respectively. Accordingly, the phytomass of Pinus densiflora forest was occupied about 43.9 % in toto and was higher thanthose of other forests. The phytomass of watershed forests belonging to Degree 8 and Degree7 divided by degree of green naturality(DGN) was 74,000 ton and 2,000,000 ton, resfectively. Accordingly, the watershed forests in South Han River were mainly composed of Pinus densiflora and Quercus mongolica forests belonging to Degree 7.

Background and Objectives: YKL-40 is considered to be associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD). In this study, the effect of serum 25(OH) vitamin D [25(OH)VitD] differences between groups on YKL-40 was evaluated on a hypercholesterolemia rat model. Methods: Thirty-two male rats (wistar albino) were equally divided into 4 groups. The first group was the control group; the second group was high-cholesterol (H-CH) adequate vitamin D (VitD) group (H-Ade^VD). The third group was the H-CH deficient VitD group (H-Def^VD), and the last group was designed with the H-CH supplement VitD (H-Sup^VD). The feeding process consisted of 2 stages. At the first stage (5 months), the H-Def^VD group was fed on VitD deficient chow, while the other groups (control, H-Ade^VD, H-Sup^VD) were fed on standard chow. At the second stage (3 months), the H-Ade^VD and the H-Sup^VD groups were fed on the H-CH chow, whereas the H-Def^VD group was fed on the H-CH-VitD deficient chow. Moreover, the H-Sup^VD group was given 100 IU/kg/day VitD along with the H-CH chow. Results: Compared with the control group, interleukin-6 (IL-6), soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), and YKL-40 values in the H-Def^VD groups increased significantly (p<0.001, p<0.001, p=0.009, p=0.005; sequentially). Conclusion: It can be concluded that VitD can suppress the YKL-40, thus, it will prevent CVD development in rat. Therefore, further clinical studies related with human will reveal the effect of VitD and YKL-40 on CVD development.

To minimize occupational noise induced hearing loss, it is recommended that workers should not be exposed to noise levels exceeding 85 dBA for over 8 h. In the present study, noise exposure levels were measured for seven workers based on their tasks on a training ship. The A-weighted noise exposure level (L_ex,24h) was measured by taking into account the A-weighted equivalent continuous sound level (L_Aeq,i), duration (h) and noise contribution (L_ex,24h,i) from the workers' locations. Results are thus obtained for different job categories as follows: officer group L_ex,24h=56.1 dB, navigation crew L_ex,24h=58.9 dB, navigation cadet L_ex,24h=62.0 dB, ship's cook L_ex,24h=64.3 dB, engine cadet L_ex,24h=91.1 dB, engineer L_ex,24h=91.1 dB, and engine crew L_ex,24h=95.1 dB. It was determined that the engineers, engine crews, and engine cadets in charge of machinery must wear hearing protection devices. By wearing hearing protection devices when working in highly noisy engine rooms, it is estimated that the noise expose levels could be reduced by the following amounts: engineer L_ex,24h=23.1 dB, engine Crew L_ex,24h=24.4 dB, and engine cadet L_ex,24h=21.5 dB. Moreover, if the no. 2 lecture room and mess room bottom plates in the cadets accommodations were improved to the 64 mm A-60-class floating plates, then further reductions are possible as follows: navigation cadet L_ex,24h=4.3 dB and engine cadet L_ex,24h=1.8 dB.

Let $D{\subseteq}E$ be an extension of integral domains with characteristic zero, I be a nonzero proper ideal of D, and let H(D, E) and H(D, I) (resp., h(D, E) and h(D, I)) be composite Hurwitz series rings (resp., composite Hurwitz polynomial rings). In this article, we show that H(D, E) is an Archimedean ring if and only if h(D, E) is an Archimedean ring, if and only if ${\bigcap}_{n{\geq}1}d^nE=(0)$ for each nonzero nonunit d in D. We also prove that H(D, I) is an Archimedean ring if and only if h(D, I) is an Archimedean ring, if and only if D is an Archimedean ring.

Several novel 1-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl) ethyl]-1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazoles (3a-h) have been synthesized by the condensation of 1-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-ethyl]-1H-benzotriazole (2) and appropriate acid chlorides. 1-[2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-ethyl]-1H-benzotriazole (2) was synthesized by reacting 3-(1H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazol-1-yl)propanenitrile with sodium azide and ammonium chloride in the presence of dimethylformamide. The synthesized compounds were characterized by IR and PMR analysis. The titled compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activity by the cup plate method and anticonvulsant activity evaluated by the maximal electroshock induced convulsion method in mice. All synthesized compounds exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against Bacillus subtilis and moderate antifungal activity against Candida albicans. Compounds 5-(2-(1 H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazo-1-yl)ethyl)-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)(4-aminophenyl)methanone 3d and 5-(2-(1 H-benzo[d][1,2,3]triazo-1-yl)ethyl)-1H-tetrazol-1-yl)(2-aminophenyl)methanone 3e elicited excellent anticonvulsant activity.

해녀콩(Canavalia lineata L. DC) 잎에서 유도한 캘러스를 pH 8인 완충용액에 한 시간 동안 처리하면 pH 6에서 보다 arginase의 활성이 약 두 배로 증가했다. 캘러스에서 얻은 arginase의 조효소액을 Sephacryl S-200 컬럼에서 분획하면 분자량이 각각 380 kD과 179 kD으로 나타났는데 분자량이 큰 arginase의 분획은 pH 8 처리구에서 각각 상대적으로 많이 나타났다. 그리고 pH 6에 0.5 mM Mn2+를 첨가하였을 때도 380 kD arginase의 분획이 크게 나타났으며, pH 6 처리에서 얻은 179 kD arginase 분획에 pH 8 처리를 하면 380 kD 분획으로 쉽게 전이될 수 있었다. pH 6 처리 후 추출한 arginase는 Mn2+의 첨가로 활성이 크게 증가하여 pH 8 처리 후 추출한 arginase와 비슷한 활성을 보이나, pH 8 처리 후 추출한 arginase는 Mn2+의 첨가로 더 이상의 활성증가를 보이지 않았다. Mn2+이 없는 조건에서 두 arginase의 Km값과 Vmax를 조사한 결과, 380 kD arginase는 22 mM과 1.61 $\mu$mole urea.min-1.mg-1 protein, 그리고 179 kD arginase는 30 mM과 0.79 $\mu$mole urea.min-1.mg-1 protein으로 측정되었다.

In the previous study, the anti-oxidant activity of oxtract/fraction of Sueada aspparagoides(SA) and the stability test for the cream containing SA extract were investigated respectively[1,2]. In this study, the components of SA extract were analyzed by TLC, HPLC, and LC/ESI-MS/MS, $^1H$-NMR. TLC chromatogram of ethyl acetate fraction of SA extract revealed 5 bands $(SA1{\sim}SA5)$. HPLC chromatogram of aglycone fractions obtained from deglycoylation reaction of ethyl acetate fraction showed 2 bands (SAA 2 and SAA 1), which were identified as quercetin (composition ratio, 16.88%) and kaempferol (83.12%) in the order of elution time. Among 5 bands of TLC chromatogram, 4 bands $(SA2{\sim}SA5)$ also were Identified as kaempferol-3-O-glucoside (SA 2), quercetin-3-O-glucoside (SA3), kaempferol-3-O-rutinoside (SA 4), quercetin-3-O-rutinoside (SA 5) by LC/ESI-MS/MSMS/MS. respectively. The spectrum generated for SAA 1 by LC/ESI-MS/MS in the negative ion mode also gave the ion corresponding to the deprotonated aglycone $[M-H]^-$ (285m/z), the $^1H$-NMR spectrum contained signals [${\delta}$ 6.19 (1H, d, J=1.8Hz, H-6), ${\delta}$ 6.44 (1H, d, J=1.8Hz, H-8), ${\delta}$ 6.92 (2H, d, J=9.0Hz, H-3', 5'), ${\delta}$ 8.04 (2H, d, J=9.0Hz, H-2', 6', thus SAA 1 was identified as kaempferol. SAA 2 yielded the deprotonated agycone ion $[M-H]^-$ (301m/z), $^1H$-NMR spectrum showed signals [${\delta}$ 6.20 (1H, d, J=2.0Hz, H-6), ${\delta}$ 6.42 (1H, d, J=2.0Hz, H-8), ${\delta}$ 6.90 (1H, d, J=8.6Hz, H-5'), ${\delta}$ 7.55 (1H, dd, J=8.6, 2.2Hz, H-6'), ${\delta}$ 7.69 (1H, d, J=2.2Hz, H-2', thus SAA 2 was Identified as quercetin. In conclusion, with the anti-oxidant activity and the stability test reported previously, component analysis of SA extracts could be applicable to new cosmeceuticals.
