Residue of herbicide napropamide [N,N-dimethyl-2-(1-napthoxy)-propionamide] and change of micro-organism were investigated in upland soil under different environmental conditions. Half-lives of degradation were 28.3 days in the sterile soil and 14.6 days in the nonsterile soil, respectively. These results suggest that microorganism remarkably affected the decomposition of napropamide. Napropamide was rapidly degraded in order of 60% > 80% ${\geq}$ 40% soil moisture content of field water-holding capacity. Numbers of bacteria and total microbes in 60% moisture content was more than those in 40% moisture content. The more the napropamide degradation was rapid in lower soil pH. The total number of microorganism increased by lapse of time after treatment of napropamide at pH 5.5. The decomposition rate of napropamide was rapid in the order of $27^{\circ}C$ > $37^{\circ}C$ > $17^{\circ}C$. At $17^{\circ}C$ of soil temperature actinomycetes in napropamide treatment plot was more than these in nontreatment plot and also at $27^{\circ}C$ and $37^{\circ}C$ bacteria in napropamide treatment plot was more than those in nontreatment plot. Napropamide degradation was more rapid and number of microorganism was more abundant at the concentration of 10ppm than at that of 20ppm. The half-life of napropamide was longer in the clay loam soil than in the silty loam soil. The half times in laboratory test than in upland field. Numbers of microbes in the experiment under all the test environmental condition was not significantly different between treatment and nontreatment of napropamide.

Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12 is a bacterial isolate capable of degrading of 4-chlorobiphenyl (4CB) as a carbon and energy source. The degradation pathway was characterized as being conducted by consecutive reactions of the meta-degradation of 4CB, hydrolytic dechlorination of 4-chlorobenzoate (4CBA), hydroxylation of 4-hydroxybenzoate, and meta-degradation of protocatechuate to product TCA metabolites. The 6.8 kb fragment from the chromosomal DNA of Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12 included the genes encoding for the meta-degradation of PCA; the genes of protocatechuate 4,5-dioxygenase alpha and beta subunits (pmcA and pmcB), 4-carboxy-2-hydroxymuconate-6-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (pmcC), 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylate hydrolase (pmcD), 4-oxalomesaconate (OMA) hydratase(pmcE), 4-oxalocitramalate (OCM) aldolase (pmcF), and transporter gene (pmcT). They were organized in the order of pmcT-pmcE-pmcF-pmcD-pmcA-pmcB-pmcC. The amino acid sequences deduced from the nucleotide sequences of pmcABCDEFT genes from Comamonas sp. strain DJ-12 exhibited 94 to $98\%$ homologies with those of Comamonas testosteroni BR6020 and Pseudomonas ochraceae NGJ1, but only 52 to $74\%$ with homologies Sphingomonas paucimobilis SYK-6, Sphingomonas sp. LB126, and Arthrobacter keyseri 12B.

The effects of dry roasting whole lupin seeds (lupinus albus, WLS) at 110, 130 or $150{^{\circ}C}$ for 15, 30 or 45 minutes on the in sacco rumen degradation characteristics, optimal heating conditions of time and temperature and in vitro enzyme digestibility were determined. Ruminant degradation characteristics (RDC) of crude protein (CP) of WLS were determined by in sacco technique in dairy cows. Measure ROC were soluble (S), undegradable (U), potentially degradable (D) fractions, lag time (TO) and rate of degradation (Kd) of insoluble but degradable fraction. Based on measured ROC, percentage bypass CP (%BCP) and bypass CP (BCP in g/kg, DM) were calculated. Degradability of CP was significantly reduced by dry roasting (p<0.001). The interaction of dry roasting temperature and time had significant effects on D (p<0.05), Kd (p<0.01), U (p<0.01), %BCP (p<0.001) and BCP (p<0.001) but not on S (p=0.923>0.05). With increasing time and temperature, S, D, Kd and U varied from 31.8%, 67.4%, 10.3%/h and 0.8% in the raw WLS (RWLS) to 27.1 %, 35.8%, 3.6%/h, 38.4% in $150{^{\circ}C}/45\;min$, respectively. All these effects resulted in increasing %BCP from 25.9 in RWLS to 61.0% in the $150{^{\circ}C}/45\;min$. Therefore BCP increased form 111.2 to 261.2 g/kg DM, respectively. Both %BCP and BCP at $150{^{\circ}C}/45\;min$ increased nearly 2.5 times over the RWLS. The effects of dry roasting on %BCP and BCP seemed to be linear up to the highest value tested. Although ROC had been altered by dry roasting, the In vitro perpsin-cellulase digestibility was generally unchanged. It was concluded that dry roasting was effective in shifting CP degradation from rumen to the lower gastrointestinal tract to potential reduce unnecessary N loss in the rumen. It might be of great value in successfully synchronizing the rhythms of release of nitrogen and energy in the rumen, thus achieving a more efficient fermentation of diets with high proportions of lignocellulosic resources. To determine the optimal dry roasting conditions, the digestibility of each treatment in the cows will be measured in the next trial using mobile bags technique.

$\rho$-Fluorophenylalanine (FPA), a phenylalanine analog, is able to induce apoptotic cell death of human acute leukemia Jurkat T cells. To better understand the mechanism by which FPA induces apoptotic cell death, the effect of ectopic expression of antiapoptotic proteins, Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL, on FPA-induced apoptosis was investigated by employing lurkat T cells transfected with Bcl-2 gene (JT/Bcl-2) or Bcl-xL gene (1/Bcl-xL) and Jurkat T cells transfected with vector (JT/Neo or J/Neo). When Jurkat T cells, JT/Neo or J/Neo, were exposed to FPA at concentrations ranging from 0.63 to 5.0 mM, the cell viability determined by MTT assay declined in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, apoptotic DNA fragmentation along with several apoptotic events such as caspase-8 activation, Bid cleavage, mitochondrial cytochrome c release, caspase-9 activation, caspase-3 activation, and degradation of PARP was induced. However, the FPA-induced cytotoxic effect, activation of caspase-8, and cleavage of Bid were significantly abrogated by ectopic expression of Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL. At the same time, there was marked reduction in the level of cytochrome c release from mitorhondria, caspase-9 activation, caspase-3 activation, and degradation of PARP. These results indicate that caspase-8 activation, Bid cleavage, and mitochondrial cytochrome c release with subsequent activation of the caspase cascade are negatively regulated by Bcl-2 or Bcl-xL, and are thus required for FPA-induced apoptosis in Jurkat T cells

To improve Mechanical and Thermal Properties of semiconducting materials in power cable, we have investigated those of semiconducting materials showed by changing the content of carbon black and Carbon Nanotube. Density were measured by EW-200SG. High temperature, heat degradation initiation temperature, and heat weight loss were measured by TGA (Thermogravimetric Analysis). The dimension of measurement temperature was $0[^{\circ}C]$ J to $700[^{\circ}C]$, and rising temperature was $10[^{\circ}C/min]$. Heat degradation initiation temperature from the TGA results was decreased according to increasing the content of Carbon Nanotube. That is, heat stabilities of EVA containing the weak VA (vinyl acetate) against heat was measured the lowest. From the results of the experiment applied in this study, it is evident that a small amount of Carbon nanotube additives significantly improved the Mechanical and Thermal Properties of semiconducting materials.

Faba beans (vicia faba) (FB) and lupin seeds (Lupinus Albus) (LS) were dry roasted at three temperatures (110, 130, $150^{\circ}C$) for 15, 30 or 45 min to determine the effects of dry roasting on rumen degradation of crude protein and starch free organic matter ($^{PSF}OM$). Rumen degradation characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ were determined by the nylon bag incubation technique in dairy cows fed 60% hay and 40% concentrate. Measured characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ were undegradable fraction (U), degradable fraction (D), soluble fraction (S), lag time (T0), and the rate of degradation (Kd). Based on the measured characteristics, rumen availability ($RA^{PSF}OM$) and bypass $^{PSF}OM$ ($B^{PSF}OM$) were calculated. Dry roasting did not have a greater impact on rumen degradation characteristics of $^{PSF}OM$ (p>0.05). S varied from 32.1 (raw) to 30.0, 27.8, 30.8% (LS) and 15.4 (raw) to 14.4, 20.8, 20.9% (FB); D varied from 65.4 (raw) to 66.3, 66.9, 55.9% (LS) and 54.9 (raw) to 55.0, 51.0, 64.7% (FB); U varied from 2.6 (raw) to 7.3, 7.0, 7.7% (LS) and 29.7 (raw) to 30.6, 28.2, 14.4% (FB); Kd varied from 6.0 (raw) to 7.3, 7.0, 7.7% (LS) and 22.4 (raw) to 24.4, 21.1, 7.9% (FB); $B^{PSF}OM$ varied from 35.5 (raw) to 33.8, 36.6, 38.2% (LS) and 41.3 (raw) to 41.5, 39.7, 47.6% (FB) at 110, 130 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. Therefore dry roasting did not significantly affect $RA^{PSF}OM$, which were 353.7, 367.9, 349.6, 336.9 (g/kg DM) (LS) and 12.82, 127.0, 133.7, 117.1 (g/kg DM) (FB) at 110, 130 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. These results alone with our previously published reports indicate dry roasting had the differently affected pattern of rumen degradation characteristics of various components in LS and FB. It strongly increased bypass crude protein (BCP) and moderately increased starch (BST) with increasing temperature and time but least affected $^{PSF}OM$. Such desirable degradation patterns in dry roasted LS and FB might be beneficial to the high yielding cows which could use more dry roasted $^{PSF}OM$ as an energy source for microbial protein synthesized in the rumen and absorb more amino acids and glucose in the small intestine.

Weight and elongation changes of IV and HIV insulations were measured simultaneously at several given temperature of $80^{\circ}C$, $90^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. And the lifetime was predicted using the Arrhenius model. Based on the initial weight values, a 50% elongation reduction was seen at 6.96% for the IV insulation and 10.29% for the HIV insulation. The activation energy from the slope of the lifetime regression equation was calculated as 92.895 kJ/mol(0.9632 eV) for the IV insulation and 95.213 kJ/mol(0.9873 eV) for the HIV insulation. Also, the expected lifetime at the operating temperature of $30^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$ is 2.02 to 94.32 years, and longer lifetime was predicted on HIV insulated wires than on IV insulated wires. As a result, it was found that the thermal characteristics of the HIV insulated wires were about 12.44% better than those of IV insulated wires under the same conditions of use.

The herbicide molinate has been detected with high frequency in the main river during the growing season in Korea. To elucidate the exposure of molinate in agricultural environment, the persistence and the degradation characteristics of molinate were investigated in paddy ecosystems. The half-lives of molinate were 4.1 days with soil aquatic system, and 4.2 days in only aquatic system. Initial dissipation rate of molinate in water was greater with soil aquatic system than that of only aquatic system. Photolysis of molinate was occurred about 31.0% of molinate treated in pure water, when irradiated at 5,530 $J/cm^2$ by the xenon lamp, but its hydrolysis was stable. For the accelerated photolysis of molinate in aqueous solution, several photosensitizers were screened, showing that the hydroperoxide($H_2O_2$) and acetone were prominent among the chemical tested. When hydroperoxide and zinkoxide(ZnO) were used as photosensitizer, their photolysis were accelerated greater than 98% and 58% in aqueous solution, respectively. Elution rate of molinate as granular formulations in aqueous system was more than 90% in 30 hour at $35^{\circ}C$. Molinate concentration pattern in paddy water was rapidly decrease from treatment till 7 days in paddy rice field and its half-lives were 3.7 days($Y=1.9258{\times}e^{-0.1865X}$(r=-0.9402)).

Polypropylene (PP)/corn starch master batch(starch-MB) blends with different PP compositions of 90, 80, 70, and 60 wt% were prepared by melt compounding at $200^{\circ}C$, using lab scale Brabender mixer. The chemical structures, thermal properties and non-isothermal crystallization behavior of the PP/starch-MB blends were investigated by FT-infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA). The fabrication of the PP/starch-MB blend was confirmed by the existence of hydroxy group in FT-IR spectrum. There was no district change in melting temperature and melting enthalpy, and TGA curve indicates a decrease in degradation temperature with starch-MB content. The non-isothermal crystallization process was analyzed using by Avrami equation. The Avrami exponents were in the range of 2.71-3.97 for PP and 1.48-1.99 for PP/starch-MB blonds. The activation energies calculated by Kissinger method were 233 kJ/mol for PP, 484 kJ/mol for PP90, 541 kJ/mol for PP80, 553 kJ/mol for PP70, and 422 kJ/mol for PP60.
