The blasting vibration prediction in Korea is mainly carried out by the scaled distance method. The delay interval of the scaled distance method is generally considered to be 8ms, where the effect of vibration between adjacent holes is not included. In this study, the origin and issues of 8ms criterion are reviewed from literatures and Langefors' 2.5T criterion is applied to evaluate the applicabilities of 8ms, 17ms and 25ms intervals in which a vibration does not affect an adjacent hole.

Asarum sieboldii has been used for treatment of fever, pain, common cold, and chronic sinusitis in Korea. In this study, we performed quantification analysis of seven major constituents including aristolochic acid I, aristolochic acid II, ${\alpha}$-asarone, ${\beta}$-asarone, elemicin, methyl eugenol, and safrole in the 70% ethanol extract of Asarum sieboldii and its solvent fractions, n-hexane, ethylacetate, n-butanol, and water ones using a ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometer(UPLC-ESI-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC-MS). Regression equations of seven components were acquired with $r^2$ values >0.99. The values of limit of detection(LOD) and quantification(LOQ) were 0.1-3.9 ng/mL and 0.3-11.7 mg/mL, respectively. The amount of the seven compounds in Asarum sieboldii were not detected -143.66 mg/g. The established LC-MS/MS and GC-MS methods will be helpful to improve quality control of Asarum sieboldii.

In this study, we analyzed glucosinolates and their metabolites in the inner and outer parts of napa cabbage (NC; Brassica rapa subsp. pekinensis) and napa cabbage kimchi (NKC) using UPLC-ESI-MS/MS. In the extracts from NC and NKC, glucobrassicanapin (m/z 386), glucoalyssin (m/z 450), glucobrassicin (m/z 447), 4-methoxyglucobrassicin (m/z 477), and neoglucobrassicin (m/z 477) were detected using the MS scan mode ([M-H]-), and gluconapin (m/z 372→97), progoitrin (m/z 388→97), glucoiberin (m/z 422→97), 4-methoxyglucobrassicin (m/z 477→97), and neoglucobrassicin (m/z 477→447) were detected using the MS/MS MRM mode ([M-H]-). Ascorbigen (m/z 306→130) and indole-3-carboxaldehyde (I3A; m/z 146→118), which were metabolites of glucobrassicins, were detected using the MS/MS MRM ([M+H]+) mode. The peak intensities of ascorbigen in the extract from the inner and outer parts of NC were significantly higher than those of the NKC extract (p<0.05); however, there was no significant difference in I3A peak intensity between the NC and NKC extracts.

From Aspergillus nidulans, six suppressor mutants, MSI-MS6, were isolated, and their characteristics were analysed. These were the suppressor mutants for acriflavin resistant and nicotinamide auxotrophic mutant phenotypes. MS1, MS2, MS5 and MS6, were linked to the chromosome IV, I, II respectively, and MS2 was linked to one of the rest chromosomes, MS3 and MS6 mutants had both suppressors for acriflavin resistant marker and for nicotinamide auxotrophic marker. In order to know the stability and efficiency of the suppressors, their reversion frequencies, that is, frequencies of losing the suppressibility, were analysed. Only MS3 and MS5 were reversed with high frequency. The four mutants didn't lose their suppressibilities, and this meant that the suppressors of these four were very stable and highly effcient. The suppressor specificities of these mutants were tested for other mutant's phenotype marker. One of the six suppressors, MS1, had the suppressor specificity for acriflavin resistant marker of 163 strain.

The monomer and dimer structures of the amyloid fragment Aβ(1-16) sequence formed in H₂O were investigated using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem MS (MS/MS). Aβ16 monomers and dimers were indicated by signals representing multiple proton adduct forms, [monomer+zH]ⁿ⁺ (=M^z+, z = charge state) and [dimer+zH]^z+ (=D^z+), in the MS spectrum. Fragment ions of monomers and dimers were observed using collision-induced dissociation MS/MS. Peptide bond dissociation was mostly observed in the D1-D7 and V11-K16 regions of the MS/MS spectra for the monomer (or dimer), regardless of the monomer (or dimer) charge state. Both covalent and non-covalent bond dissociation processes were indicated by the MS/MS results for the dimers. During the non-covalent bond dissociation process, the D³⁺ dimer complex was separated into two components: the M¹⁺ and M²⁺ subunits. During the covalent bond dissociation of the D³⁺ dimer complex, the b and y fragment ions attached to the monomer, (M+b_10-15)^z+ and (M+y_9-15)^z+, were thought to originate from the dissociation of the M²⁺ monomer component of the (M¹⁺+M²⁺) complex. Two different D³⁺ complex geometries exist; two distinguished interaction geometries resulting from interactions between the M¹⁺ monomer and two different regions of M²⁺ (the N-terminus and C-terminus) are proposed. Intricate fragmentation patterns were observed in the MS/MS spectrum of the D⁵⁺ complex. The complicated nature of the MS/MS spectrum is attributable to the coexistence of two D⁵⁺ configurations, (M¹⁺+M⁴⁺) and (M²⁺M³⁺), in the Aβ16 solution.

Five triterpenic acids as marker compounds were extracted and isolated from Prunellae Spica by column chromatography and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and their purity was determinated by HPLC (purity ${\geq}90%$). Molecular weight and elemental compositions of the five marker compounds were determined by fast atom bombardment high-resolution mass spectrometry (FAB-HRMS). The structural determination of the five marker compounds was carried out fast atom bombardment collision-induced dissociation tandem mass spectrometry (FAB-CID-MS/MS). The collision-induced dissociation (CID) of protonated molecules $[M+H]^+$ and deprotonated molecules $[M-H]^-$ produced diverse product ions due mainly to retro Diels-Alder reaction (RDA), dehydration and decarboxylation. Moreover, the CID-MS/MS spectra of the $[M-H]^-$ ions were observed charge-remote fragmentation (CRF) patterns. On the basis of interpretation of CID-MS/MS spectra, structural elucidation of triterpenic acids isolated from Prunellae Spica was clearly performed.

This study was conducted to find out the effect of slow-release nitrogen fertilizer, such as latex coated urea(LCU) and Meister10(MS10) on direct seeded rice in flooded soil(FS). Junghwabyeo, and early maturity rice cultivar grown on the plots which were treated with None-nitrogen, urea, LCU and MS10 plot. Growth characteristic, yield and yield components were investigated. Nitrogen uptake-efficiency and physico-chemical properties of soil before-after experiment were analyzed. Plant height and number of tillers $m^{-2}$ in LCU and MS10 plot at early grow stages were higher than those of Urea plot. MS10 and LCU plot showed similar tendency on the plant height but MS10 plot was higher than LCU plot on the number of tillers $m^{-2}$. The number of seedling $m^{-2}$ were no significant differences among None-N, urea, and MS10 plot. Heading date and leaf color were no significant differences among None-N, urea, and MS10 plot. Culm length in LCU and Ms10 plot were longer compared with urea plot, but panicle length were similar among with Urea, LCU and MS10 plot. Number of panicles $m^{-2}$ was highest in MS10 plot and it was similar between LCU and Urea plot. Yield were greater in order of Ms10 > LCU > Urea plot. Nitrogen uptake and nitrogen efficiency were greater in order of MS10 > LCU > urea plot. After the experiment, total content of nitrogen in soil was not changed at all treatments, but pH, P and K of soil were lower than that of before experiment at all treatments.

To investigate the effects of MS medium strength and nitrogen concentration on bulblet formation from bulblet scale segment culture and bulblet growth from bulblet of Lilium oriental hybrid 'Casa Blanca', asiatic hybrid 'Mona', and longiflorum hybrid 'Hinomoto', 0.5∼2.0 strength of MS salts and 30∼120 mM nitrogen concentrations of MS medium were examined in vitro. The number of bulblets from bulb scale segment was favored in the strength of 0.5∼1.0 strength of MS salts or 30 mM total nitrogen concentration of MS medium in three cultivars. But the growth of bulblets formed in vitro was promoted in the 2 strength of MS medium or hight concentration of total nitrogen of MS medium up to 120 mM in three experimented cultivars.

Management science/operations research (MS/OR) educational software packages are widely used at the present time. Those software packages are expected to help students understand MS/OR techniques better. However, MS/OR educational software packages are often used as computational tools to obtain model solutions efficiently rather than as the tutoring software packages. Several possible reasons for the lack of effective tutoring capacity in MS/OR educational software packages are identified in this paper. The authors believe that the deficiency of tutoring capacity in those software is mainly due to technological limitations (computers and artificial intelligence) and the MS/OR professionals' perception about those software packages. Given technological limitations, feasible design and development approaches are provided to improve the tutoring effectiveness of MS/OR educational software packages.
