To properly manage and remediate groundwater contaminated with chlorinated hydrocarbons such as trichloroethylene (TCE), it is necessary to assess natural attenuation processes of contaminants in the aquifer along with investigation of contamination history and aquifer characterization. This study evaluated natural attenuation processes of TCE at an industrial site in Korea by delineating hydrogeochemical characteristics along the flow path of contaminated groundwater, by calculating reaction rate constants for TCE and its degradation products, and by using geochemical and reactive transport modeling. The monitoring data showed that TCE tended to be transformed to cis-1,2-dichloroethene (cis-1,2-DCE) and further to vinyl chloride (VC) via microbial reductive dechlorination, although the degree was not too significant. According to our modeling results, the temporal and spatial distribution of the TCE plume suggested the dominant role of biodegradation in attenuation processes. This study can provide a useful method for assessing natural attenuation processes in the aquifer contaminated with chlorinated hydrocarbons and can be applied to other sites with similar hydrological, microbiological, and geochemical settings.

This paper proposes new 13-level inverter topology and DC/DC converter buck-boost structure topology for multilevel, compounding uni-directional and bi-directional switches, and proposes high-efficient multilevel inverter system in which the proposed two PCS(Power Conditioning System) was connected in series. In proposed multilevel inverter of forming a output 13-level phase voltage by using total 18 switching parts, Then bi-directional switch has a characteristic of reducing conduction loss and controlling the reactive power effectively by separating electrically from the neutral point. DC/DC converter for supplying in dependent 3 DC voltage to the proposed multi-level inverter generates 180-degree phase shifted PWM by the symmetrically combined structure of 2 buck-boost converter and twice switching frequency efficiency can be obtained, meanwhile, the converter can step up/down the output voltage and 20% output can be generated comparing the input voltage. This proposed system is verified with the simulation and laboratory test.

A 3-year-old Thoroughbred mare was referred to J&C Equine Hospital with gestation day 30 twin pregnancy. On transrectal ultrasonographic examination, two similar sized (28 mm) embryonic vesicles, unilaterally fixed in the uterine horn, were detected. Transvaginal ultrasound-guided aspiration (TUGA) was performed for reduction of one embryonic vesicle. Yolk sac and allantoic cavity fluids from one embryonic vesicle were aspirated by a needle guided by using transvaginal ultrasound. The mare continued normal singleton pregnancy after twin reduction and delivered a foal successfully. This is the first case described the clinical use of TUGA in Korea. Clinical use of TUGA in twin reduction after embryonic fixation is recommended for equine clinicians.

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate a parent-child reading interaction program. Based on the importance of the parent-child relationship and the home literacy environment vis-a-vis the extent to which reading is encouraged, and with regard to the existing empirical research in this field, a five-session parent-child reading interaction program has been developed, targeting 18 parents with children enrolled in th lower grades of elementary school. The effectiveness of this program has been evaluated by a pretest and post test and then analyzed by a paired t-test. The findings are as follows: 1) Following the implementation of this program, there were improvements in scores related to the home literacy environment, the encouragement of reading, and the attitude of the child toward reading. 2) In addition, there was an increase in the level of the mother's "rational guidance" parenting while tendencies toward overprotective and hostile parenting traits declined. The importance of the parent-child relationship and home literacy environment concerning reading guidance was discussed.

The gene encoding Schwanniomyces occidentalis $\alpha-amylase$(AMY) was introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. diastaticus which secreted only glucoamylase, by using a linearized yeast integrating vector to develop stable strains with a capability of secreting $\alpha-amylase$and glucoamylase simultaneously. A dominant selectable marker, the geneticin(G418) resistance gene (Gt^r$), was cloned into a vector to screen wild-type diploid transformants harboring the AMY gene. The amylolytic activities of transformants were about 3-7 times higher than those of the recipient strains. When grown in nonselective media, the transformants with the linearized integrating vector containing the AMY gene exhibited almost all of the mitotic stability after 100 generations.

Bacterial strains were isolated from diseased samples of shoot blight collected from different pear growing orchards of Chuncheon, Korea from 1995 to 1998. Forty-nine strains showed their pathogenicity on immature fruit and shoot of pear. Microbiological, physiological, and biochemical tests were performed on these pathogenic strains. One strain, designated as WT3 in this study, was selected as a representative strain as it was collected from the first outbreak area in Jichonri, Chuncheon in 1995. Further detailed characterization of the strain WT3 was done by PCR amplification using specific primers described previously for distinguishing Erwinia pyrifoliae from its close pathogen Erwinia amylovora. Based on phenotypical, biochemical, and molecular analyses, strain WT3 was identified as a shoot blight pathogen which was the same as E. pyrifoliae Ep16 previously described by a German group in 1999.

Lung abscess is often ocuured by aspiration of infectious secretion in stroke patients that has symptom of dysphagia. So we studied the effects of combined eastern and western treatment in lung abscess patient combined with stroke. We performed both antibiotic therapy and herbal medication in a lung abscess patient. We compared a chest x-ray film of early stage of disease with a film of after stage of disease, also compared change of symptom-cough, sputum, flank pain, blood phlem. After dispending antibiotic therapy and herbal medication, a lung abscess patient improved symptoms and in result of chest x-ray. The above results suggest that combined eastern and western trearment can have good effects on improving symptoms of a lung abscess patient.

The ${\beta}$-Amylase cDNA fragment from the oomcete Saprolegnia parasitica was cloned by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) using degenerate oligonucleotide primers derived from conserved ${\beta}$-amylase sequences. The 5'and 3'regions of the $\beta$-amylase gene were amplified using the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (rACE) system. It consisted of an open reading frame of 1,350 bp for a protein of 450 amino acids. Comparison between the genomic and cDNA sequences revealed that the intron was not present in the coding region. The deduced amino acid sequence of the ${\beta}$-amylase gene had a 97% similarity to the ${\beta}$-amylase of Saprolegnia ferax, followed by 41% similarity to those of Arabidopsis thaliana, Hordeum vulgare, and Zea mays. The ${\beta}$-amylase gene was also expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by placing it under the control of the alcohol dehydrogenase gene (ADC1) promoter.

Leiomyosarcoma is defined as a malignant smooth muscle tumor or a tumor that arises from smooth muscle and it is found as firm. white and lobulated mass. Canine uterine Ieiomyosa- rcomas are rarely associated with clinical signs. We surveyed(one case which was treated at veter- inary medical leaching hospital of Seoul National University. Through this report we studied the meshed fur diagnosis of uterine leiomyosarcoma by symptom, hematological method and ultrahonog- raphy. To determine uterine leiomysarcoma is difficult due to similarity of clinical signs to pyometra. Especially symptoms could not be noticed even by dogs owners until dogs have an elevation of the number of white blood cells. We conclude ultrasonographic observation and experimental laparotomy are of great value to diagnose the uterine liomyosarcoma.
