Chronic disease such as rheumatoid arthritis is believed to induce a significant psychosocial stressors. The concept of illness intrusiveness-illness induced life style disruptions-was hypothesized to affect psychosocial status. And demographic, socioeconomic, disease and social characteristics were hypotehsized to affect illness intrusiveness. Hierarchial multiple regression analyses were used. As a result, among the demographic factors gender was identified as contributor to directly increase the psychosocial stress and education level was identified to affect the psychosocial stress through illness intrusiveness. Among socioeconomic factors, the burden about the cost of medical treatment was found to indirectly affect the psychosocial stress through the illness intrusiveness. Also income and job were found to affect directly the psychosocial status. Among the disease characteristics, only the pain level was identified to increase the psychosocial stress through the illness intrusiveness. Among the social characteristics, perceived social support is identified to increase the psychosocial stress through the illness intrusiveness. Based upon these results, some suggestions were made for minimizing illness intrusiveness in rheumatoid arthritis and future research.

A crack identification method using an equivalent bending stiffness and natural frequency for cracked beam is presented. Modal properties of cantilever beam with a tip mass is identified by applying the boundary conditions to a general solution. An equivalent bending stiffness for cracked beam based on an energy method is used to identify natural frequencies of cantilever thin-walled pipe with a tip mass, which has a through-the-thickness crack, subjected to bending. The identified natural frequencies of the cracked beam are used in constructing training patterns of neural networks. Then crack location and size are identified using a committee of the neural networks. Crack detection was carried out for an example beam using the proposed method, and the identified crack locations and sizes agree reasonably well with the exact values.

The small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins have been implicated in the pathology of a number of diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases. The conjugation machinery for SUMOylation consists of a number of proteins which are redox sensitive. Here, under oxidative stress ($100{\mu}M$ hydrogen peroxide), antioxidant ($100{\mu}M$ ascorbate) or control conditions 169 proteins were identified by electospray ionisation fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. The majority of these proteins (70%) were found to contain SUMOylation consensus sequences. From the remaining proteins a small number (12%) were found to contain possible SUMO interacting motifs. The proteins identified included DNA and RNA binding proteins, structural proteins and proteasomal proteins. Several of the proteins identified under oxidative stress conditions had previously been identified as SUMOylated proteins, thus validating the method presented.

Incidence of stem rot on carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L.) ranged 11 to 29% in Namwon and Chongup area during the growing seasons from 1993 to 1994. Among 129 isolates from carnations in Namwon, 77 isolates were identified as Rhizoctonia solani, 38 isolates were Fusarium oxysporum and 14 isolates were not identified. Among 169 isolates in Chongup, 19 isolates were identified as R. solani, 106 isolates as F. oxysporum and 44 isolates were not identified. Among 77 isolates of R. solani isolated from the specimens of Namwon, 52 isolates were classified as anastomosis group AG 2-2 by anastomosis test, 14 isolates as AG 2-1 and 11 isolates as AG 4. Among 19 isolates from specimens of Chongup, 14 isolates were classified as anastomosis group AG 2-2 and 5 isolates as AG 4. Pathogenicity tests revealed that isolates of F. oxysporum and R.solani AG 2-2 were highly virulent and isolates of R.solani AG 2-1 and AG 4 were mildly virulent.

The API STAPH-IDENT system was evaluated as a means for identifying Staphylococcus hyicus subsp hyicus straints isolated from swine and poultry. Of 80 strains from swine, 68 (85%) were correctly identified by the API STAPH-IDENT system alone after 5 h of incubation. When results were determined after 24 h of incubation, the accuracy of this system alone was 93.8%. By additional tests in conjunction with the API STAPH-IDENT system, however, all 80 strains could be correctly identified. Of 120 strains from poultry, 87 (72.5%) required additional testing to achieve a correct identification, and 33 (27.5%) were incorrectly identified by this system after 5 h of incubation. After 24 h of incubation, 99 of 120 (82.5%) avian strains were incorrectly identified as Staph epidermidis owing to false-negative mannose and trehalose utilizations. Seventy-seven (96.3%) of swine strains were positive for ${\beta}-glucuronidase$, whereas all 120 strains recovered tram poultry were negative for it.

These experiments were carried out to obtain basic information necessary for sexing embryos by chromosomal analysis. To observe metaphase chromosomes, all embryos developed to blastocysts were cultured in Ho, pp. & Pitts' medium containing 0.001% Colcemid under the gas phase of 5% CO2 in air at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The sex chromosome of mouse embryos shown normal development after culture in medium containing H-Y antiserum (10%, v/v) and complement (20%, v/v) also was confimed by chromosomal analysis. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows: 1. Among 89 mouse blastocysts, the number of embryos identified to have XX and XY chromosome was 22(25%) and 25(28%), respectively and 42(47%) embryos were not identified. 2. Of total 40 mouse balstocysts cultured in medium containing H-Y antiserum and complement, 23(58%) embryos which were able to be discriminated their sex chromosomes were identified to be XX bearing embryos. 3. Sex chromosomes of a number of embryos subjected to chromosomal analysis were not identified. This result may be due to absence or poor quality of metaphase spreads.

Aliphatic hydrocarbon gases from rubber pyrolysis have been identified by gas chromatography with tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether column. Rubbers used in this work are polyisoprene, SBR, NBR, polybutadiene, buthyl rubber, polychloroprene and polyurethane rubber. The chromatogram is characteristic for each polymer. Author proposes a method of identification of synthetic rubbers by gas chromatograph of pyrolyzed gas. Sample is pyrolyzed at $450^{\circ}C$ under nitrogen or more effectively helium and gaseous portion, which eliminated liquid condensate, is passed to the column. The appearance of exclusively large peak of isoprene, isobutylene and carbon dioxide shows the presence of polyisoprene, polyisobutylene and polyurethane, respectively. Large peak of butadiene will appear in case of polybutadiene, SBR and NBR, but SBR can be identified through the styrene peak in gas chromatogram of liquid pyrolyzate and NBR can be identified by the evolution of hydrogen cyanide during pyrolysis. Polychloroprene is identified by the evolution of hydrogen chloride. This method could be applied to the identification of copolymer or polymer blend.
