Solid solutions of the (1-x)$BiFeO_3-xSrTiO_3$ ceramic system (x = 0~0.4) are explored here in attempts to obtain multiferroic properties in these systems. The polarization-electric field hysteresis, magnetization-magnetic field curves, and dielectric properties are also characterized. This solid-solution system shows a crystal structural transition from a noncentrosymmetric (R3c) structure to a centrosymmetric (Pm-3m) structure at 0.3 < x < 0.4. The solid solution ceramic shows unsaturated M-H behavior and low remanent magnetization over the composition region of 0.1 ${\leq}$ x ${\leq}$ 0.3. The $0.7BiFeO_3-0.3SrTiO_3$ system shows the largest value of $M_s$ at 0.17 emu/g and the smallest value of $H_c$ at 1.06 kOe. The P-E hysteresis curves were not saturated under an electric field as high as E = 70 kV/cm. This system is considered to have multiferroic characteristics in the composition range of 0.1 ${\leq}$ x ${\leq}$ 0.3.

This paper describes a new method of calculating expected energy generation and loss of load probability (L.O.L.P) for electric power system operation and expansion planning. The method represents an equivalent load duration curve (E.L.D.C) as a mixture of cumulants approximation (M.O.C.A), which is the general case of mixture of normals approximation (M.O.N.A). By regarding a load distribution as many normal distributions-rather than one normal distribution-and representing each of them in terms of Gram-Charller expansion, we could improve the accuracy of results. We developed an algorithm which automatically determines the number of distribution and demarcation points. In modelling of a supply system, we made subsets of generators according to the number of generator outage: since the calculation of each subset's moment needs to be processed rapidly, we futher developed specific recursive formulae. The method is applied to the test systems and the results are compared with those of cumulant, M.O.N.A and Booth-Baleriaux method. It is verified that the M.O.C.A method is faster and more accurate than any other methods.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of additional enamel etching with phosphoric acid on the microleakage of the adhesion of self-etching primer system. Class V cavity($4mm{\times}3mm{\times}1.5mm$) preparations with all margins in enamel were prepared on buccal surface of 42 extracted human upper central incisor teeth. Prepared teeth were randomly divided into 3 groups. Group 1：no additional pretreatment with 37% phosphoric acid (NE). Group 2：additional pretreatment with 37% phosphoric acid for 10 seconds (E10s). Group 3：additional pretreatment with 37% phosphoric acid for 20 seconds (E20s). The adhesives(Clearfil SE $Bond^{\circledR}$, Kuraray, Osaka, Japan) and composite resins(Clearfil $AP-X^{\circledR}$, Osaka, Kuraray, Japan) were applied following the manufacturer's instructions. All the specimens were finished with the polishing disc(3M dental product, St Paul, MN, USA), thermocycled for 500 cycles between $5^{\circ}C$ and $55^{\circ}C$ and resected apical 3-mm root. 0.028 stainless steel wire was inserted apically into the pulp chamber of each tooth and sealed into position with sticky wax. Surrounding tooth surface was covered with a nail varnish 2 times except areas 1mm far from all the margins. After drying for one day, soaked the samples in the distilled water. Microleakage was assessed by electrochemical method(System 6514, $Electrometer^{\circledR}$), Keithley, USA) in the distilled water. In this study, the microleakage was the lowest in group 1 (NE) and the highest in group 3(E20s)(NE

The iontophoretic delivery across rat skin of quaternary ammonium salts (isopropamide: ISP, pyridostigmine: PS), which are positively charged over a wide pH range, was measured ill vitro. The study showed that: (a) iontophoresis significantly enhanced delivery of ISP and PS compared to respective passive transport; (b) delivery of ISP and PS was directly proportional to the applied continuous direct current density over the range of $0-0.69\;mA/cm^2;$ (c) delivery of ISP and PS was also proportional to the drug concentration in the donor compartment over the range of $0-2{\time}l0^{-2}M:$ (d) sodium ion in the donor compartment inhibited the drug transport possibly due to decreasing the electric transference number of the drug; (e) delivery of ISP and PS increased as the pH of the donor solution increased over the pH range 2-7 suggesting permselective nature of the epidermis, and inhibition of the transference number of the drugs by hydronium ion; (f) some organic anions such as taurodeoxycholate, salicylate and benzoate which form lipophilic ion-pair complexes with ISP inhibited the delivery of ISP. The degree of inhibition by the organic anions was linearly proportional to the extraction coefficient $(K_e)$ of ISP from the partition system with each counteranion between phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and n-octanol. For PS, however, taurodeoxycholate, but not salicylate and benzoate inhibited the iontophoretic delivery. It suggests that not only sodium ion and hydronium ion but also the counteranions which form lipophilic ion-pairs with quaternary ammonium drugs are not favorable components in formulating the donor solution of the drugs to achieve an effective iontophoretic delivery.

Under the light intensity of 25-72$\mu$E/ m$^{2}$/s Botryococcus braunii UTEX 572 grew faster than Botryococcus sp. GE 24 isolated from a freshwater lake. The specific growth rate ($\mu$) of B. braunii UTEX 572 was highest at 0.260 (1/day) on a dry weight basis in Chu 13 medium from 1 to 9 days of incubation and then continuously decreased. Carbohydrate concentration and cellular nitrogen and phosphorus contents of B. braunii UTEX 572 gradually decreased with light intensity over a range of 25-72$\mu$E/m$^{2}$2/s, whereas the concentrations of protein and cellular N:P ratio increased with light intensity. Chlorophyll-a concentration showed a decreasing tendency with light intensity. The dry weight of B. braunii UTEX 572 increased in the highest rate of 83 mg/l/day at pH 8.0. When the N: P ratio of Chu 13 medium was adjusted to 50: 1 by addition of nitrogen source, dry weight increasing rate was 115 mg/l/day between 20 and 28 days of incubation which was the highest value during the cultivation. Cell growth in an open culture of B. braunii UTEX 572 was highest with Chu 13 medium, whereas that with Chu 13 medium adjusted to pH 7.0, containing 250 mg/l penicillin, or containing 1% glucose was reduced on a large scale. However, this result shows the possibility of the mass cultivation of B. braunii UTEX 572 in an open system competing with other microorganisms.

Presence of antibody to the capsid protein p24 is the main diagnostic criterion, since this reflects reliable antibody response to HIV infection. However, it takes about 6-8 weeks for antibody production after infection and people who are infected but antibodies are not produced yet are classified as seronegative. Therefore, there is a strong need for an improved diagnostic method for better health security. As a first step for developing such an improved diagnostic system, gag protein of human immunodificiency virus type 1 was expressed in E. coli DH5$\alpha$. The gag fragment of HIV-1 (including a portion of p17 and whole p24) was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and BamH I/EcoR I sites were created during PCR. The amplified DNA fragment was cleaved with BamH I/EcoR I and was subcloned into the GEX-2T vector which had been digested with BamHI/EcoRI, resulting gene fusion with gst gene of pGEX-2T. The recombinant DNA was transferred into E. coli DH5$\alpha$. The transformed bacteria were grown at 37$^{\circ}C$ for 3h and protein expression was induced with 0.1mM IPTG at $25^{\circ}C$ for 3h. Recombinant gag protein or GST-gag fusion protein was purified with glutathione-sepharose 4B bead and migrated as a single band when analyzed by 10% polyacrylamide gel. These proteins were confirmed by immunoblotting with anti-GST goat sera or Korean AIDS patients sera. The results of this study establish the expression and single step pulification of HIV-1 gag protein which can specifically bind with Korean AIDS patients sera.

단백질의 serine이나 threonine의 수산기에 N-acetyl-${\beta}$-D-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc)으로 변형되는 당쇄는 대부분의 진핵세포에서 광범위하게 일어나는 번역 후 수식의 일종으로 여러 세포 내 현상에 관여하고 있다. O-GlcNAc의 변형정도는 O-GlcNAc transfearse (OGT)와 O-linked N-acetyl-${\beta}$-D-glucosaminidase (O-GlcNAcase)에 의해 조절된다. O-GlcNAcase의 효소활성 조절물질을 탐색하기 위한 시험관 내 검정계를 확립하기 위해 재조합 O-GlcNAcase의 생산을 시도하였다. O-GlcNAcase 발현을 최적화하기 위한 배양조건을 검토한 결과 유도 배양온도 $30^{\circ}C$, 유도제인 L-arabinose 0.02%, 유도 배양시간 5시간 등으로 나타났다. 위의 조건에서 대장균 형질전환체를 배양하면서 한 시간 간격으로 배양액을 채취하여 세포를 파괴하고 얻은 효소용액의 활성은 배양 후 3시간에서 5시간까지는 급격히 증가하였으나 그 이후는 거의 증가하지 않았다. Western blot으로 발현된 단백질 양을 조사한 결과는 활성 그래프와 비슷한 양상을 보였다. 이렇게 생산한 O-GlcNAcase의 최적 반응조건은 pH 6.5, 반응온도 $45^{\circ}C$, 기질의 농도 2 mM, pH 6.5로 나타났다.

Monomeric rhodium and iridium diimine complexes $Cp^*M(HNRNH)(Cp^*$ = 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl : (M=lr; R=o-$C_6H_4 (1a), 4,5-(CH_3)_2-C_6H_2-1,2 (1b), 4,5-(Cl)_2-C_6H_2-1,2$ (1c), NCC=CCN-1,2 (1d): M=Rh; R=NCC=CCN-1,2 (1e)) have been synthesized from $[CP^*MCl_2]_2$ and 2 equiv. of diamine in the presence of $NEt_3$. The Crystal structure of 1a was determined by X-ray diffraction method : 1a was crystallized in the monoclinic system, space group $P2_{1/c}$, with lattice constants a=9.543 (1) ${\AA}$, b=16.286 (1) ${\AA}$, c=10.068 (1) ${\AA}$ and ${\beta}$=99.25 (1), with Z= 4. Least-squares refinement of the structure led to R factor of 0.049. The coordination sphere of rhodium and iridium can be described as a 2-legged piano-stool. All complexes are highly colored. Electrochemical studies show that 1d and 1e display quasi-reversible reduction and 1a-1c display irreversible reductions, suggesting that the acceptor orbital might be localized on the diimine ring.
