Six surface sediments from two offshore transects of Ulsan and Gampo, on the southeastern margin of Korea were taken for sediment and foraminiferal analyses. Sedimentary processes are dominated by reworking and resedimentation from storms in the area off Ulsan and hemipelagic suspension settling in the area off Gampo. Eighty-four foraminiferal species were identified in total assemblages, including 33species of living populations and 9 species of planktonic foraminifera. The characteristics of foraminifera showed differences of offshore environments between Ulsan and Gampo. The number of living species, species diversity and equitability in Gampo offshore area had higher values than those in Ulsan offshore area. However, planktonic/benthic(P/B) ratio showed higher in the Ulsan offshore area. The species diversity indices and P/B ratio indicated that environmental stability and surface-ocean productivity in the Gampo offshore area were relatively higher than the Ulsan offshore area. The difference of species compositions is useful for interpreting the paleoenvironments in mud deposits of the southeastern margin of Korea.

Lab-scale biofilter was studied for the simultaneous removal of ammonia and hydrogen sulfide in gas mixtures. Compost and polyurethane foam were used as packing materials (50 : 50) and activated sludge from a wastewater treatment plant was innoculated initially. When tested under varying inlet concentrations and empty bed residence time(EBRT), up to 80 ppmv of ammonia and 40 ppmv of hydrogen sulfide could be removed completely at an EBRT of 30 sec. The pH was found to be the key factor governing the biofilter performance.

In this study, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) was applied to the TEMPO-assisted FRIPS for the first time. We found that 3-HPA is the optimal matrix for the analysis of p-TEMPO-Bz-Sc-peptides, which gives minimal precursor fragmentations. MALDI-TOF/TOF experiments on p-TEMPO-Bz-Sc-peptides yielded mainly $[a_n+H]^+$, $[z_n+H]^+$, and $[y_n]^+-type$ products, indicating that radical-driven peptide fragmentation occurs in MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS.

A hyrdrothermal synthesis has been developd to prepare rod-like crystals of copper oxide using copper nitrate trihydrate as a function of synthesis temperature, stirring speed and solution pH value. The properties of the fabricated crystals were studied using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and particle size analysis. The morphology of the synthesized CuO was dependent on both the pH value of the solution and the morphology of the seed materials. Synthesized particles have regular morphologies and a uniform size distribution.

We designed optical systems for a mobile phone camera using a spherical SELFOC lens and an aspherical plastic lens. Since the radial index distribution gives an additional design parameter for optical design, an aspheric lens could be replaced by a spherical lens. The imaging performances of the design were compared with conventional 2P design composed of two aspherical plastic lenses. In the first stage of study, we designed 1GRIN 1P lenses by using commercially available SELFOC materials. But, the conventional 2P lenses had better performance than the 1GRIN 1P lenses. In the 1GRIN 1P designs, the performance depends on index variation of GRIN material, the larger variation gives the better performance. Hence, we tried to design by using fictitious GRIN materials which have large index variation. We found if the index variation could be increased to about 3 times that of currently available SELFOC materials, the 1GRIN 1P lens will have equivalent or better performance than the conventional 2P design.

Recently the rapid growth of Internet and the construction of high speed networks make many kinds of multimedia services possible. But most of current multimedia services are designed being by client/server model, which incurs high load of central server. In order to solve this problem, we propose a peer-to-peer network-based discovery mechanism for multimedia services. In the proposed scheme, mobile agents that have autonomy and mobility are used to search the location of resources. Use of mobile agents can solve the loss problem of the search result that occurs when the network is unsettled in pure peer-to-peer network. It also supports interoperability in heterogeneous system environments. In the proposed scheme, each host maintains the location information of resources which are locally requested or recently requested by other hosts. So, the proposed scheme has faster response time than the pre-existing mechanisms in pure peer-to-peer network environments.

Objective : In order to elucidate hyperlipidemic effects of the fruits of Poncirus trifoliata and Citrus aurantium, our experimental study was performed on hyperlipidemia rats induced by Triton WR-1339. Method : The hyperlipidemia rats induced by intraperitonial injection of triton WR-1339 were treated with the fruits of P. trifoliata (rare and preparata) and C. aurantium 50 and 200mg/kg. The amount of triglyceride. total cholesterol. HDL-cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, AST. and ALT levels were measured. Results: The levels of triglyceride. total cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol were significantly reduced in fruits of P. trifoliata (rare and preparata) and C. aurantiu. Simvastatine treated group compared with those of control but the level of HDL-cholesterol was incresed. The level of AST and ALT were not significantly reduced by the treatment to the fruits of P. trifoliata (rare and preparata) and C. aurantium. Conclusion : In the hyperlipidemia rats induced by triton WR-1339. the fruits of P. trifoliata (rare and preparata) and C. aurantium showed a hyperlipidemic effect.

Under the condition of water electrolysis in aqueous hydrochloric acid as the electrolyte, the lead removal from the lead-loaded activated carbon packed on the anode was investigated. The adequate flow condition is a total flow rate of 10 mL/min in the same flow rate ratio to both electrodes. The increase of current decreases pH values at the anode and the decrease of pH leads to the lead removal. This work shows that the water electrolysis is an efficient method for the lead removal from the lead-loaded activated carbon with a reduction in quantity of the chemical used in comparison with the acid rinse.

Determination of uric acid by electrochemical method using ultrasonic stimulation has been investigated. Effects of sonication power, sonication time, pH of the solution and temperature were studied to obtain the optimal analytical conditions. The stability of the electrode was also examined. The optimal conditions for the sonovoltammetric determination of uric acid were as follows: temperature, $25.0^{\circ}C$ pH 7.0; sonication power, $20W/cm^2$. The calibration curve for the determination of uric acid by sono-LSV was linear over the range of$8.0{\times}10^{-6}\~5.0\times10^{-4}M$ and the limit of detection was $6.5\times10^{-6}M$.
