Plastic deformation was observed by TEM around the intragranular SiC particles in the $Al_2O_3$ matrix for $Al_2O_3/SiC$ nanocomposite system. The dislocations are generated at selected planes and there is a tendency for the dislocations to form a subgrain boundary structure with low-angel grain boundaries and networks. In this study, dislocation generated in the $Al_2O_3$ matrix during cooling down from sintering temperatures by the highly localized thermal stresses within and/or around SiC particles caused from the thermal expansion mismatch between $Al_2O_3$ matrix and SiC particle was observed. In monolithic $Al_2O_3$ and $Al_2O_3/SiC$ microcomposite system. These phenomena is closely related to the plastic relaxation of the elastic stress and strain energy associated with both thermal misfitting inclusions and creep behaviors. The plastic relaxation behavior was explained by combination of yield stress and internal stress.

Salmonella typhimurum은 생활사 동안에 다양한 환경과 접하게 된다. S. typhimurium은 오염된 웅덩이에서 숙주의 phgolysosome에 이르기까지 생태계에 널리 분포하면서 산성 스트레스를 경험하며 또한 생존할 수 있다. Salmonella 이와 같은 산저항능은 Acid Tolerance Response (ATR)에 의해 획득된다. 약산의 pH에 적응된 S. typhimurium은 낮은 pH 영역에서 생존할 수 있는 일종의 대항능을 갖게되며, 이런 생존 능력은 복잡한 유전적 유도현상 결과로 해석된다. Salmonella 있어서 ATR은 RpoS 의존적 그리고 RpoS 비의존적 현상으로 구분되며, 특히 혐기적 조건(5% $CO_2$, 5% H$_2$, 90% $N_2$)에서 rpoS$\Omega$Ap는 UK1과 동일한 ATR을 나타내어, 혐기적 조건의 ATR은 RpoS 비의존적인 것으로 판명되었다. P22와 MudJ (Km, lacZ)를 이용한 gene fusion기법과 sodium acetate (pH4.5)를 이용한 돌연변이체 분리방법을 병행하여 산민감성의 형질을 나타내는 LE487 aatA::MudJ를 얻었다. antA 는 Salmonella의 유전자 지도상에서 12min에 위치하는 것으로 조사되었다. antA는 혐기적 조건(5% $CO_2$, 5% H$_2$, 90% $N_2$)하의 pH4.3 조건에서 야생형 Salmonella 비해서 매우 높은 산민감성을 보여주었다. 그러므로 antA는 혐기적 ATR에 있어서 산적응 기전에 관여하는 중요한 유전자로 확인되었다.

This study was designed to investigate the effect of one-to-one labor support on labor pain, labor stress response, childbirth experience and neonatal status for primipara by a quasi experiment (nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design), from April 30, 1999 to February 20, 2000. The subjects of this experiment consisted of eighty two primipara with single gestation, full term, uncomplicated pregnancies. Forty one were in the experimental group and forty one in the control group. Their mean age was 25.95 years, their mean gestation period was 39.9 weeks. A caring package of one-to-one labor support had three components. Physical support consisted of massage, back pressure, touch. Emotional support was provided by a continuous nurse's presence, acceptance and encouragement. Informational support involved teaching breathing skills, relaxation skills and knowledge about the labor process. Data assessed labor pain, pulse rate and blood pressure to measure labor stress response. Also, in measuring the value of labor stress response, plasma epinephrine, plasma norepinephrine and serum cortisol were measured. In the 24 hours after birth, the data for the postpartum mother's childbirth experiences was collected. Umbilical cord arterial blood pH, one minute and five minute Apgar score were measured after birth. Data was analyzed by t-test, $x^2$-test, repeated measures ANOVA, ANCOVA with SAS Program. The results were as follows; 1. Labor pain was significantly low in the experimental group(P=.016). 2. No significant group effects were found, but significant time effects were found for plasma epinephrine, norepinephrine, serum cortisol, pulse rate and blood pressure. 3. The childbirth experience of the experimental group was significantly more positive than the control group (P = .005). 4. The umbilical cord arterial blood pH of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group(P=.014). There was no significant difference between the two groups in neonatal one minute and five minute Apgar scores. In conclusion, these findings indicate that one-to-one labor support could be effective in decreasing labor pain, and increasing positive childbirth experiences, also increasing the neonatal umbilical cord arterial blood pH for primipara. So, one-to-one labor support could be applied as an effective nursing treatment for primipara.

Objective: Sarcoplasmic proteins include proteins that play critical roles in biological processes of living organisms. How seasons influence biological processes and meat quality of postmortem muscles through the regulation of protein phosphorylation remain to be investigated. In this study, the phosphorylation of sarcoplasmic proteins in pork longissimus muscle was investigated in four seasons. Methods: Sarcoplasmic proteins were extracted from 40 pork carcasses (10 for each season) and analyzed through ProQ Diamond staining for phosphorylation labeling and Sypro Ruby staining for total protein labeling. The pH of muscle, contents of glycogen and ATP were measured at 45 min, 3 h, and 9 h postmortem and the water (P_2b, P₂₁, and P₂₂) was measured at 3 h and 9 h. Results: A total of 21 bands were detected. Band 8 (heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein; heat shock 70 kDa protein 1B) had higher phosphorylation level in summer than that in other seasons at 45 min postmortem. The phosphorylation levels of 3 Bands were significantly different between fast and normal pH decline groups (p<0.05). The phosphorylation levels of 4 bands showed negative associations with immobilized water (P₂₁) and positive association with free water (P₂₂). Conclusion: The phosphorylation levels of sarcoplasmic proteins involved in energy metabolism and heat stress response at early postmortem time differed depending on the seasons. These proteins include heat shock protein 70, pyruvate kinase, phosphoglucomutase-1, glucose-6-phosphate isomerase, and carbonic anhydrase 3. High temperatures in summer might result in the phosphorylation of those proteins, leading to pH decline and low water holding capacity.

This study examined the effects of pre-slaughter fasting, chasing stress and chiller ageing on objective meat quality, and their relations to the proteome profile of longissimus muscle using 20 male Korean native black pigs. Treatments were composed of two levels of pre-slaughter feed withdrawal, two levels of pre-slaughter stress and four chiller ageing times. A 15 min chasing stress immediately prior to slaughter significantly (p<0.05) decreased detectable levels of $\mu$-calpain activity during rigor development and chiller ageing, but did not have any direct effect on objective meat quality. On the other hand, pigs fed until the morning of slaughter resulted in significantly (p<0.05) higher hunter L* value and cooking loss than those which received an 18 h feed withdrawal prior to slaughter. Cooking loss and hunter L* value were constant during 7 d of chiller ageing, followed by significant increases at 14 d. The fed animals showed a significantly (p<0.05) higher hunter a* value at both 3 and 7 d, while the other group maintained a stable redness for 7 d. WB-shear force was not affected by the pre-slaughter treatments, but had significant (p<0.05) linear reduction from 1 to 7 d. A gelbased proteome analysis was performed on selected animals for low and high hunter L* values at 1 d. Ten and five spots had greater than two-fold spot densities for the low and high hunter L* groups, respectively. The ten spots included chain A, deoxyribounclease I complex with actin, heat shock protein 27 kDa, a protein similar to cardiac $Ca^{2+}$ release channel, and myosin heavy chain, while the five spots included chain A aldehyde dehydrogenase, glycerol-3 phosphate dehydrogenase, and hemoglobin alpha chain. In general, feeding until the morning of slaughter resulted in more desirable meat color, but appeared to reduce palatability due to increased cooking loss. Proteome analysis demonstrated that various proteins were concomitantly involved in the determination of final meat color. The most noticeable observation in the current study was that various isoforms for a particular protein differed in degradation and/or expression rate depending on meat quality.

Aim: P53, the most commonly mutated tumor suppressor gene in all types of human cancer, is involved in cell cycle arrest and control of apoptosis. Although p53 contains several polymorphic sites, the codon 72 polymorphism is by far more common. There are divergent reports but many studies suggest p53 pro/pro SNP may be associated with susceptibility to developing various cancers in different regions of the world. The present study aimed to find any correlation between H. pylori infection and progression of carcinogenesis, by studying apoptosis and the p53 gene in gastric biopsies from north Indian population. Materials and Methods: A total of 921 biopsies were collected and tested for prevalence of H. pylori by rapid urease test (RUT), imprint cytology and histology. Apoptosis was studied by the TUNEL method. Analysis of p53 gene polymorphism at codon 72 was accomplished by PCR using restriction enzyme BstU1. Observation: Out of 921 samples tested 56.7% (543) were H. pylori positive by the three techniques. The mean apoptotic index (AI) in the normal group was 2.12, while gastritis had the maximum 4.24 followed by gastric ulcer 2.28, gastropathy 2.22 and duodenal ulcer 2.08. Mean AI in cases with gastric cancer (1.72) was less than the normal group. The analysis of p53 72 SNP revealed that p53 (Arg/Arg), (Pro /Arg) variant are higher (40.59% & 33.66%) as compared to p53 pro/pro variant (25.74%) inthe healthy population. Conclusions: The North Indian population harbors Arg or Pro/Arg SNP that is capable of withstanding stress conditions; this may be the reason of low incidence of gastric disease in spite of high infection with H. pylori. There was no significant association with H. pylori infection and AI. However, there is increased apoptosis in gastritis which may occur independent of H. pylori or p53 polymorphism.

The objective of the current study was to investigate the effects of stocking density (SD) and dietary supplementation of vitamin C on growth performance, meat quality, intestinal permeability, and stress indicators in broiler chickens. The study was conducted using a completely randomized design with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement consisting of 2 different SD and 2 supplemental levels of dietary vitamin C. A total of 1,368 Ross 308 broiler chickens of 21 days of age with similar body weights (BW) were randomly allotted to 1 of 4 treatments with 6 replicates each. Different numbers of birds per identical floor pen (2.0 m × 2.4 m) were used to create 2 different SD levels of low SD (9 birds/m²) and high SD (18 birds/m²). The basal diet was formulated with no supplemental vitamin C to meet or exceed nutrient recommendations of the Ross 308 manual. The other diet was prepared by supplementing 200 mg/kg vitamin C in the basal diet. The study lasted for 14 days. At the end of the study, 3 male birds per replicate were selected to analyze meat quality, intestinal permeability, and stress indicators such as blood heterophil:lymphocyte (H:L) and feather corticosterone (CORT) concentrations. Results indicated that there were no interactions between different SD and dietary supplementation of vitamin C for all measurements. For the main effects of SD, birds raised at high SD had less (p < 0.01) BW, BW gain, and feed intake with increasing stress responses including greater blood H:L and feather CORT concentrations (p < 0.01) than those raised at low SD. Transepithelial electrical resistance in the jejunal mucosa was decreased (p < 0.05) at high SD, indicating an increase in intestinal permeability. However, the main effects of dietary supplementation of 200 mg/kg vitamin C were insignificant for all measurements. In conclusion, high SD of broiler chickens impairs growth performance and intestinal barrier function with increasing stress responses. However, dietary supplementation of vitamin C may have little beneficial effects on broiler chickens raised at the high SD condition used in the present study.

Comparative study on the effects of $H_2$ vs. $O_2$ plasma pretreatment of gate oxide on the degradation phenomenon of p-channel low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) thin-film transistors (TFTs) were performed. After high drain current stress (HDCS) with $V_{gs}$ = $V_{ds}$, the p-channel TFTs pretreated by $O_2$ plasma showed increased immunity to the degradation of device characteristics such as threshold voltage and maximum field effect mobility because of the higher binding energy of Si-O bond than that of Si-H bond. The investigation of degradation phenomenon of these parameters with the applied power suggests that self-heating can be the major cause of degradation of polysilicon TFTs.

본 실험은 현장에서 발생할 수 있는 도축 전개체 관리와 도축 후 냉각온도의 편차가 숙성기간동안 육질에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위해 설계되었다. 총 20 두 랜드레이스를 도축 하루 전날부터 절식(n = 10)한 처리구와 도축일 아침까지 급여(n = 10)한 처리구 중에 각각 5마리씩을 무작위 선발하여 도축 전 스트레스(n = 10)와 무 스트레스(n = 10) 처리하엿다. 분할 후 좌도체는 $6^{\circ}C$에 우도체는 -$3^{\circ}C$의 도체 냉각실에서 24시간 냉각하였다. 사후 강직기와 도축 후 24시간의 pH, 온도, 유리 칼슘이온, 단백질 분해도를 측정하였으며, 1일째 근절길이, $1^{\circ}C$에서 3일 및 7일째 드립량, 1, 3, 7일째 육색, 전단력 및 가열 감량을 측정하였다. 본 실험 조건에서 도축 직전 15분 동안 몰이스트레스는 유리 칼슘량을 제외한 대사속도 및 육질 특성에 영향을 주지 않았다. 절식하지 않은 구는 절식한 처리구와 비교하여 1시간과 24시간에 빠른 pH 하강을 보였고 (P < 0.1), - $3^{\circ}C$ 냉각 조건에서는 $6^{\circ}C$에서 냉각한 처리구와 비교하여 도축후 3시간부터 완만한 pH 강하속도(P < 00.1)을 보였으나 최종 pH가 5.7 ${\sim}$ 5.8로 처리 구간에 큰 차이가 없었다. pH 6.2에서 절식과 냉각방법간에 상호 작용이 있었는데, 절식하지 않은 도체를 $6^{\circ}C$에서 냉각했을 경우 온도가 $33.3^{\circ}C$로 절식시킨 처리구를 - $3^{\circ}C$에서 냉각한 처리구와 비교하여($22.2^{\circ}C$) 11$^{\circ}C$ 더 낮은 온도를 보였다. 근절길이는 1.7 ${\sim}$ 1.8 ${\mu}m$로 처리간에 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 24시간째 전단력은 절식처리구에서 약 2kg 높았다(P < 0.05) 영향을 받았는데, 절식시킨 시험구에서 낮은 값을 보였다. 냉각실 온도는 전단력과 육색에 영향을 미치지 않았으나, -$3^{\circ}C$ 냉각이 가열 감량을 유의적으로 감소시켰다(P < 0.05), 숙성기간 동안 전단력은 사료 급여를 하지 않은 도체에서 도축 후 1일에 약 6.5 kg으로 도축전까지 급여한 구보다 높았는데( P <0.05), 이 결과는 빠른 pH 하강과 유리 칼슘이온의 방출로 높은 도체 온도에서 단백질 분해 효소의 높은 활성과 관련된 것으로 판단되었고, 이것은 빠른 Desmin 분해 속도가 뒷받침하였다. 하지만 숙성 7일째에는 처리간의 전단력 차이는 관찰되지 않았다. 가열 감량 숙성기간동안 가열 감량을 크게 증가시켜 숙성 7일째에는 유의적으로 높은(P < 0.01) 가열 감량을 유발하였다. 이러한 결과는 육색과도 연관 되었는데, 육색은 결과는 육색과도 연관 되었는데, 육색은 진공포장 후 7일 동안 $1^{\circ}C$에서 숙성한 결과 절식시킨 시험구와 지교하여 도축 전 급여가 더 밝고 붉은색(P < 0.05)을 나타냈다. 명도는 숙성 7일째에 유의적으로 증가하였고, 적색도는 3일째에 증가하였으나 7일째에는 변화가 없었다. 이러한 변화는 통계적으로는 유의성이 관찰되었으나 그 차이점은 미미했다. 본 실험결과는 도축 전날까지 급여 또는 절식 여부는 숙성 3일 이상일 경우 연도에는 영향을 미치지 않으나, 도축일 아침까지 급여가 보수력을 감소시키므로 도축 하루 전날부터 절식하는 것이 육질을 증가시킨다는 것을 시사하고 있다.
