Batch binding experiments were performed to assess the recovery performance of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH) bound to the unshielded and polymer (polyvinyl pyrrolidone. PVP)-shielded dye-ligand (Cibacron Blue 3GA) adsorbent. The adoption of a polymer-shielded, dye-ligand technique facilitated the elution efficiency of bound G3PDH. It was demonstrated that the recovery of G3PDH using polymer-shielded dye-ligand adsorption yielded higher elution efficiency, at 60.5% and a specific activity of 42.3 IU/mg, after a low ionic strength elution (0.15 M NaCl). The unshielded dye-ligand yielded lower elution efficiency. at 6.5% and a specific activity of 10.2 IU/mg.

A multiprocessor microprocessor named SMPC(scaleable multiprocessor chip) that contains tow IU (integer unit) is presented in this paper. It can execute multiple instructions from several tasks exploiting task-level parallelism that is free from instruction dependencies, and provide high performance and throughput on both single program and multiprogramming environments. the IU is a 32-bit scalar processor expecially designed to boost up the performance of string manipulations which are frequently used in RDBMS(relational data base management system) applications. A memory management unit and a data cache shared by two IUs improve the performance and reduce the chip area required. ETH SMPC is implemented in VLSI circuit by custom design and automated design tools.

A 3 year-old male American Pit Bull Terrier in Kwang-Ju, Chonnam was admitted to the Teaching Animal Hospital, Chonbuk National University. He showed convulsive spasms of skeletal muscles, raised tail-head, and rigidity of rigidity. Based on these clinical sign\ulcorner tetanus was suspected Hematological test results showed and WBC value (21 ,800/$\mu$l/) with neutrophils (17.877/$\mu$l) and monocytes (1.744/$\mu$l). The blood chemical values ALT (86 IU/L) and AST (119 IU/L) were elevated. Fecal sample from the dog was cultured in anaerobic chamber. A Gram positive, drumstick shaped bacteria was isolated. The bacteria was identified as Clostridium tetani by biological and biochemical tests. The dog was hospitalized in a quiet place where the light was cut off and treated with penicillin G procaine and phenobarbital sodium. The dog made a complete recovery 25 days after treatment. This Is the first report on C. tetani infection of domestic dog in Korea.

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous quantitative analysis of methylparaben (MP), ethylparaben (EP), propylparaben (PP), butylparaben (BP) and imidazolidinyl urea(IU) or diazolidinyl urea(DU) in cosmetics was studied by using a cyano-propyl column and 0.05M hexanesulfonic acid at 228 nm. Calibration curves were found to be linear in the 60-1000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL range (parabens), 100-1,250 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL range (IU) and the 120-2000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL range (DU). Linear regression analysis of the data demonstrates the efficacy of the method in terms of precision and accuracy. An extraction method is developed and validated in order to apply this chromatographic method to a commercial cosmetic cream. The precision of this method, calculated as the relative standard deviation (RSD) of the recoveries (0.46-2.71％) was excellent for all compounds.

The optimum conditions of the production of exo-polymer by Ganoderma lucidum WK-003 and it's hepatoprotective effect was studied. Optimum conditions for the production of exo-polymer (3.18 g/$\ell$) by using shaken flask culture of G. lucidum WK-003 were pH 4.5, 30$^{\circ}C$, 120 rpm for 18 days cultivation. Also exo-polymer productio (7.15 g/$\ell$) was optimized by 5$\ell$ jar fermenter cultivation with condition of pH 4.5, 30$^{\circ}C$, 200 rpm, 1.0 vvm for 6 days cultivation. Glutamic pyruvic transaminase(GPT) activities in serum of intoxicated Sprague-Dawley rat were decreased from 704 IU/L to 330 IU/L by oral administration of the exo-polymer (20mg/kg$.$day)f or 4 consecutive days.

Optimization of culture conditions for L-asparaginase production by submerged fermentation of Aspergillus terreus MTCC 1782 was studied using a 3-level central composite design of response surface methodology and artificial neural network linked genetic algorithm. The artificial neural network linked genetic algorithm was found to be more efficient than response surface methodology. The experimental $_L$-asparaginase activity of 43.29 IU/ml was obtained at the optimum culture conditions of temperature $35^{\circ}C$, initial pH 6.3, inoculum size 1% (v/v), agitation rate 140 rpm, and incubation time 58.5 h of the artificial neural network linked genetic algorithm, which was close to the predicted activity of 44.38 IU/ml. Characteristics of $_L$-asparaginase production by A. terreus MTCC 1782 were studied in a 3 L bench-scale bioreactor.

본 연구는 Lipomyces starkeyi KCTC 17343에 의한 dextranase 최적 생산 조건을 확립하고 dextran에 대한 효소 분해 특성을 규명하였다. 균주의 성장과 dextranase생산은 발효초기 pH와 온도에 따라 다르며 최적 pH는 4-5, 최적온도는 $25-30^{\circ}C$의 범위에서 결정이 되었다. 최적 발효조건에서의 dextranase 생산은 total enzyme activity가 4.85 IU/ml으로 나타났다. 이때의 발효균주의 specific growth rate는 $0.076h^{-1}$이었다. 발효 중 dextranase의 활성은 발효 정상기에서도 안정성을 유지하였다. Dextranase에 의한 dextran을 가수분해 결과, 가수분해물의 구성은 DP2 to 8에 이르는 올리고 덱스트란으로 이루어졌다.

미꾸라지 양식시 기본 요건인 종묘의 안정적 공급을 위하여 호르몬 처리에 의한 산란 유도와 연중 다산란 유도 가능성을 조사하였다. 미꾸라지는 어체중 g당 $2\~10$ IU 농도의 태반성 성선자극 호르몬(HCG) 1회 주사로 $23.1\~100{\%}$ 산란이 유발되었으며, 특히 6 IU/g의 농도 이상에서는 모든 실험어가 산란하였다. 호르몬 주사 후 산란까지 대개 $13\~25$시간이 소요되었고 HCG농도 증가에 따른 수정율, 부화율 및 위생식소 숙도지수의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 어체중 증가에 따라 포란수도 증가하여 어체중 g당 평균 약 $500\~600$의 난을 산란하는 것으로 나타났다. 다산란 유도를 위해 $25^{\circ}C$ 조건하에서 사육하면서 첫 산란 후 사육 일수에 따른 비만도, 간 숙도지수 및 생식소 숙도지수를 조사하고 이를 토대로 재산란을 유도한 결과 미꾸라지 암컷은 최초 산란 후 40 일이 경과하면 양질의 난을 재산란하는 것으로 나타났다.

Purpose: Platelet transplantation is a novel therapeutic strategy for acceleration of wound healing. When applying platelets, efficacy of adding thrombin to stimulate growth factor release from platelets has already been proved. However, no quantitative data of the thrombin treatment has been reported. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal thrombin concentration to maximize growth factor release of platelets. In particular, this study was designed to quantify levels of platelet derived growth factor(PDGF)-BB, which is a major growth factor contained in the platelets, in vitro. Methods: Fresh platelets were obtained from a blood bank. They were suspended in DMEM/F - 12 and incubated with thrombin of various concentrations. The concentrations of thrombin tested were 0, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400 IU/ml. After 30 minutes, 1, 3, 5, and 7 days, the levels of PDGF - BB were measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Platelets from four donors were included in this study. Each sample was tested in triplicate and the mean value was used as a data for each sample. Results: The addition of thrombin increased the level of PDGF - BB. Increases in storage time of platelets resulted in decreased levels of PDGF - BB. Higher levels of PDGF were detected in consort with increased thrombin concentrations. However, there was no significant difference between samples of 200 and 400 IU/ml concentrations. Conclusion: The results indicate that adding thrombin accelerates the release of growth factors from platelets and the optimal thrombin concentration to maximize this function is 200 IU/ml.

Purpose: This study was conducted to compare the changes in the levels of liver enzymes after providing health education to workers. Methods: Among 909 electronics-manufacturing workers, 96 (10.6%) workers had abnormal liver functions. Of these, male workers were randomly assigned into either the health education experimental group (48 [52.2%]) or the control group (44 [47.8%]). Depending on the level of participation in the health education, workers in the experimental group were classified into the participation (32 [34.8%]) and non-participation groups (16 [17.4%]). Changes in the levels of liver enzymes were compared among three groups. Results: The changes in the levels of gamma-glutamyltransferase (r-GTP) in the participation, non-participation, and control groups were $-25.3{\pm}54.5$ IU/L, $-4.4{\pm}24.1$ IU/L, and $-5.3{\pm}38.8$ IU/L, respectively (p=.036). Aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, waist circumference, body mass index, daily alcohol consumption, weekly exercise, and changes in smoking habits in the 3 groups did not differ significantly. In the multiple linear regression analysis, the variable of education participation revealed a significant regression coefficient of -25.10 when the change in r-GTP levels was the dependent variable. Conclusion: A brief health education targeted towards the management of liver disease among workers improved r-GTP levels.
