BTO ($BaTiO_3$) thin film is one of the high dielectric materials for high-density dynamic random access memories (DRAMs) due to its relatively high dielectric constant, It is generally known that BTO film is difficult to be etched by plasma etching, but high etch rate with good selectivity to pattern mask was required. The problem of sidewall angle also still remained to be solved in plasma etching of BTO thin film. In this study, we first examined the patterning possibility of BTO film by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process instead of plasma etching. The sputtered BTO film on TEOS film as a stopper layer was polished by CMP process with the sell-developed $BaTiO_3$- and $TiO_2$-mixed abrasives slurries (MAS). respectively. The removal rate of BTO thin film using the $BaTiO_3$-mixed abrasive slurry ($BaTiO_3$-MAS) was higher than that using the $TiO_2$-mixed abrasive slurry ($TiO_2$-MAS) in the same concentrations. The maximum removal rate of BTO thin film was 848 nm/min with an addition of $BaTiO_3$ abrasive at the concentration of 3 wt%.

To experimentally research out the effect of 'Hagocho-San' used for liver disease on the clinical treatment of oriental medicine, I induced liver damage rats by thioacetamide and dosed the extracts orally and measured the activity rate of GOT, GPT, ALP and LDH. The following results were obtained: 1) GOT activity was more decreased in the experimental group than in the control group. Extracts from mixed decoction was more efficacious than those mixed form of the extracts after individual decoction. Extracts from decoction showed continuous significance after 48 hours on, but mixed form of extracts after individual decoction was significant only after 48 hours and 96 hours. 2) GPT activity was more decreased in the experimental group than in the control group. Extracts from mixed decoction was effective after 48 hours on but mixed form of extracts after individual decoction was significant after 48 hours and 72 hours. 3) ALP activity was more decreased in the experimental group than in the control group. Extracts from mixed decoction was more efficacious than the mixed form of extracts after individual decoction and significance was verified after 72 hours on. 4) The significance of LDH activity in the extracts from mixed decoction was revealed after 72 hours and 96 hours but mixed form of extracts after individual decoction showed significance 72 hours later. 5) From the above results, it was showed that 'Hagocho-San' extract was effective on liver disease and extracts from mixed decoction was more effective than mixed form of extracts after individual decoction.

This research produced internal model tester ($2.0m{\times}2.0m{\times}1.0m$) to evaluate the field application of Paju Unjeong District water recycling system for small streams eco-friendly river bed disparity method for the first time in Korea and conducted comparative analysis of the Paju Unjeong District water recycling system field test results and infiltration rate result of internal tests by each rainfall intensity following surface material. Infiltration rate result of internal tests concrete pavement by rainfall intensity following surface material, asphalt pavement, bentonite mate, stabilized soil construction and mixed soil construction manifested low infiltration rate. On the contrary, compaction soil, grassland and water permeable packaging materials resulted in significant amount of infiltration rate. As for the field permeability test results, they were manifested similar tendency as indoor permeability test results and they satisfied the standard for standard of water permeability of domestic disparity facility (less than $1.0{\times}10-7cm$/sec). As compaction rate increased, unconfined compression strength increased as well while coefficient of water permeability decreased.

Feeding rate and growth rate of earthworm population on the variously pretreated spent materials of the agaric-mushroom cultivation were investigated. When the spent mushroom substrates with different aging periods were supplied to earthworm, feeding rate and growth rate of earthworm population on spent mushroom substrates aged less than 10 days were higher than that on spent mushroom substrates aged more than 20 days. Feeding rate and growth rate were not increased when the spent mushroom substrate mixed with vermicasts or nitrogenous fertilizer was supplied. Feeding rate and growth rate on the ground mushroom substrate were higher than that on the non-ground mushroom substrate. Especially when the ground mushroom substrate was mixed with rice bran and supplied to earthworms, growth rate was much higher than that on the non-ground spent mushroom substrate; it increased 1.85 times.

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of mixed culture of rat's calvaria cells and periodontal ligament cells on calcification. These cells have been known to do important role on the periodontal tissue regeneration, especially alveolar bone and cementum. Experimental groups were made which based on the different rate of rat's calvaria cells and periodontal ligament cells, and then these cells were cultured with Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium contained with 10% fetal bovine serum, $50{\mu}g/ml$ ascorbic acid, and 10mM/ ml $Na-{\beta}-glycerophosphate$. Each group was characterized by examining the cell proliferation rate, amount of total protein synthesis, alkaline phosphatase activity, and the number of calcified nodules in vitro. In cell proliferation rate , the cells of control groups were cultured Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium contained with 10 % fetal bovine serum. The results were as follows : 1. The cell proliferation rate in control groups decreased stastically significantly along with the decrease of the rate of bone cells at 7 day and 20 day(P < 0.01). 2. The cell proliferation rate in experimental groups decreased stastically significantly along with decrease of the rate of bone cells at 3 day and 14 day(P < 0.01). 3. The amount of total protein synthesis was significantly decreased along with decrease of the rate of bone cells at 3 day and 6 day(p < 0.01). 4. Alkaline phosphatase activity showed reverse time dependent pattern and was significantly decreased along with decrease of the rate of bone cells during the experimental periods (P < 0.01). 5. Calcified nodules were observed in group 1 (Rat calvaria cells alone) for the first time, and the number of calcified nodule decreased stastically significantly along with the decrease of the rate of bone cells at 12 day(P < 0.01). From the above results, When bone cells and periodontal ligament cells were mixed cultured, the cell proliferation rate was mostly dependent on the actual rate of bone cells and same pattern was showed in amount of total protein synthesis, alkalinephosphatase activity, and the number of calcified nodules. And the calcified nodule forming capacity of bone cells was inhibited by periodontal ligament cells

An understanding of the nature of the immune response to asexual erythrocytic stages of malaria parasites will facilitate vaccine development by identifying which responses the vaccine should preferentially induce. The present study examined and compared the immune responses of NIH mice in either single or mixed infections with avirulent (DK) or virulent (DS) strains of Plasmodium chabaudi adami using the ELISA test for detecting and measurement of cytokines and antibody production. In both single and mixed infections, the study showed that both cell- and antibody-mediated responses were activated. In all experiments, an early relatively high level of IFN-$\gamma$ and IgG2a during the acute phase of the infection, and later elevation of IL-4 and IgG1, suggested that there was a sequential Th1/Th2 response. However, in the avirulent DK strain infection a stronger Th1 response was observed compared to the virulent DS strain-infection or in mixed infections. In the virulent DS infection, there was a stronger Th2 response compared to that in the DK and mixed infections. The faster proliferation rate of the virulent DS strain compared to the DK strain was also evident.

Fifteen species of microorganisms were isolate form the intestines of fishes, fish feed, and ferment. Eleven microorganisms except HY4, HY8, HY12, and HY13 were Gram-positive, and HY1, HY2, HY3, HY5, HY6, and HY7 produced lactic acid. The species of HY1, HY2, HY3, HY4, HY5, HY6, HY13, and HY14 showed some growth in the medium containing 1% of NaCl. Except HY6, HY7, HY8, HY12 and HY5, 10 isolates had proteolytic activity, whereas only HY13 and HY14 had lipase activity. From all the results four isolates (HY3, HY4, HY13 and HY14) were chosen for the degradation of fish wastes. There was no mutual inhibition among the microorganisms, and the optimum temperature and pH for the growth of the mixed culture were found to be 3 2$\^{C}$ and 7, respectively. Under the optimum growth conditions the maximum optical density and the maximum specific growth rate were estimated to be 2.35 and {TEX}$0.46h^{-1}${/TEX}, respectively. Major microorganisms in the mixed culture at the log-phase were HY3 and HY4, which occupied 70%. The degrading efficiency of fish waste by the mixed microorganisms was 2.3 times higher, compared to control. The total amount of free amino acids in the degraded products from fish wastes was 39g/100g protein and little odor was produced by the mixed microorganisms after 48 hours.

To increase the utilization of the Allium fistulosum L., the main crop of Jindo-kun, Jennam, Korea, the study about the way of process utilization is carried. The condition of swelling volume of mixing wheat flour and Allium fistulosum L flour is similar to 7.5% of the drying Allium fistulosum L. flour, and 25% of the raw Allium fistulosum L flour is similar to the bread made with just wheat flour. In the texture of mixing wheat flour and Allium fistulosum L., the hardness, adhesion, gumminess and tough chewiness is higher, as the rate of mixing drying Allium fistulosum L. is higher. There is no wide difference in 7.5% to 25% but it is higher in more than 20%. The color of bread mixed with Allium fistulosum L. is green-yellow. The more the mixing quantity is, the darker as we con see. The taste of bread mixed with Allium fistulosum L. is evaluated to 7.5% better than normal one in color, taste and smell and that of the bread mixed with raw Allium fistulosum L. is to 25% betterthan normal one in color, taste and smell. Mixed wheat flour and dryed Allium fistulosum L. flour is 5%, and raw Allium fistulosum L. is 15%. As a result, the bread mixed with Allium fistulosum L. is evaluated as the best.

The cmc's of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/Triton X-100 surfactant mixtures were determined by surface tension measurement at various surfactant compositions. The cmc values were lower than those predicted from ideal mixture. The regular solution theory was applied to calculate the interaction parameter, micellar composition, and the activity coefficients of surfactants in the mixed micelle. The interaction parameter (${\beta}$) was - 2.1. The nonideality arised largely from decreased activity of SDS in the mixed micelle. The mean aggregation numbers (${\bar{n}}$) and micropolarity of hydrocarbon region of the mixed micelles were determined by luminescence probe techniques. The total aggregation number (${\bar{n}}_{SDS}+{\bar{n}}_{TX}$) in mixed micelles showed little dependency on the composition of the micelle. The apparent dielectric constant of the hydrocarbon region of the micelle vs micellar composition plot showed positive deviation from linearity. Emission and emission quenching of excited tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(Ⅱ) cation, $(Ru(bpy)_3^{2+})$, by methylviologen ($MV^{2+}$) were also investigated in the mixed micellar solutions. The quenching rate was lowest when the mole fraction of SDS in the surfactant mixtures (${\alpha}_{SDS}$) is about 0.25 and highest at ${\alpha}_{SDS}$ = 0.85. This was explained in terms of combined effects of binding of the cations with the micelle and mobility of the bound cations on the surface of the micelles.
