This study was conducted to determine the optimum root zone environment condition and proper nutrient management system for lettuce in hydroponics. For the root zone environment condition, several level of pH and electrical conductivity (EC) were treated respectively. Though all the level of pH 4 to pH 8, except pH 3, performed better growth without any visible physiological disorder, the optimum pH of the nutrient solution for lettuce production was pH 5.5 to 6.0. The optimum ionic strength of the solution was EC 1.2 to 1.6 mS $cm^{-1}$ / because higher nutrient level caused tip burn symptom by calcium deficiency. Considering the above results, it is concluded that lettuce can be efficiently mass-produced through the optimum root zone environment.

Bacillus circulans S-1 extracellular pullulan 6-glucanohydrolase (EP) (EC 3.2.1.41) has been characterized with a purified enzyme of 140 kDa. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the purified enzyme was P-L-N-M-S-Q-P. The enzyme displayed a temperature optimum of around $60^{\circ}C$ and a pH optimum of around pH 9.0. The enzyme was stable to incubation from pH 4.0 to pH 11.0 at $4^{\circ}C$ for 48h. The presence of substrate allowed the protection of the enzyme from heat inactivation. The activity of the enzyme was stimulated by several metal ions such as Mn2+ and Ca2+. The enzyme had an apparent Km of 7.92 mg/ml for pullulan. The purfied enzyme completely hydrolysed pullulan to maltotriose.

Quality characteristics of yakju prepared by different yeast strains such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae S 2, Saccharomyces cerevisiae S 6 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae IFO 1950 were investigated during fermentation. The pH in all kinds of yakju was gradually decreased until 6 days and then it was constant. In stage of fermentation, acidity of yakju made of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S 6 was higher than others. At the beginning stage of fermentation, ethanol contents were in the range of 0~2% increased to 9.5~11.5% after 10 days. Yakju made of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S-2 showed higher ethanol contents than others. Free sugars in yakju were found to be glucose and maltose. The contents of free sugars were decreased until 6 days and they were not detected. The content of ethanol in yakju showed the highest value at the 6th day and those of yakju A, B and C were 11.9, 9.5, 10.9%, respectively. Main organic acids in yakju were citric acid and lactic acid. The content of citric acid in yakju B was higher than others.

Let $p_1$ and $p_2$ be two distinct odd primes with gcd($p_1-1$, $p_2-1$) = 6. In this paper, we compute the linear complexity of the first class two-prime Whiteman's generalized cyclotomic sequence (WGCS-I) of order d = 6. Our results show that their linear complexity is quite good. So, the sequence can be used in many domains such as cryptography and coding theory. This article enrich a method to construct several classes of cyclic codes over GF(q) with length $n=p_1p_2$ using the two-prime WGCS-I of order 6. We also obtain the lower bounds on the minimum distance of these cyclic codes.

Bacillus licheniformis was an useful material for improvement of fecal microflora. The stability of Bacillus licheniformis in low pH (pH 2, 3, 4, 6, 7), artificial bile acid, high concentration of salt (0, 5, 10, 20, $30\%$), and ethanol (0, 4, 8, 16, $32\%$) was investigated in this study. The viability of Bacillus licheniformis was stable for pH 3, 4, 6, 7 Final viability of Bacillus licheniformis was confirmed below $25\%$, in the bile acid. In high concentration of salt, Bacillus licheniformis showed optimal viability in $10\%$ of salt. The viability of Bacillus licheniformis was over $95\%$ in condition of ethanol concentration $4\%,\;8\%,16\%,\;32\%$ contrast with uncontained ethanol at $37^{\circ}C$ for 4h. It was verified that Bacillus licheniformis was stable for pH 4, 6, 7, high concentration of salt and ethanol but was unstable in pH 2 and bile acid.

The antimutagenic activities of ethanol extracts of Korean and American propolis were tested using Salmonella Typhimurium TA98 with two indirect mutagens of 3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido [4,3-b]indole (Trp-P-1) and 2-aminoanthracene (2-AA) with S9 mix. Additionally, their antimicrobial activities against acne-related pathogenic strains of Propionibacterium acnes, Staphylococcus Epidermidis, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were evaluated using both paper disk method and agar dilution method. Ethanol extracts of Korean and American propolis showed strong inhibitory effects, in a dose dependant manner, against the mutagenicities induced by Trp-P-1 and 2-AA. The antimutagenic effect of ethanol extracts of Korean propolis showed significantly higher protective activity than that of American propolis against the Trp-P-1 induced mutagenicity of S. Typhimurium TA98 at the lower concentration ($1-10\;{\mu}g$), but significantly lower protective activity at the higher concentration ($50-200\;{\mu}g$). The antimutagenic effect of ethanol extract of Korean propolis showed significantly higher protective activity than that of American propolis against the 2-AA induced mutagenicity at the concentration of $1\;{\mu}g$, but significantly lower protective activity than that of the American at the higher concentration ($50-200\;{\mu}g$). Both extracts showed strong antimicrobial activities against all the acne-related pathogens tested, with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values in the range $1,500-5,000\;{\mu}g/mL$.

This study was purposed to figure out current situation of part of 273 middle-school girls' dietary behavior and problems, then provide baseline data which helps to develop desirable eating behavior and life style. It appeared that suitable amount of eating(F=6.378, p=.002), degree of unbalanced diet(F=3.542, p=.030), Nutrients intake(F=6.780, p=.001), and life style(F=4.291, p=.015) differs between groups depending on student's subjective physical health status. It turned up that perceived physical health status is related to moderate amount of eating, degree of unbalanced diet, and Nutrients intake(p<0.05). As a results, in the period of adolescent which is a rapid growth period, there should be a systematic and endurable practice of right eating behavior, foods for formation of lifestyle, and convergence education in health area.

This paper presents MMIC drive and power amplifiers covering 6-18 ㎓. For simple wideband impedance matching and less sensitivity to fabrication variation, modified distributed topologies are employed in the both amplifiers. Cascade amplifiers with a self-biasing circuit through feedback resistors are used as unit gain blocks in the drive amplifier, resulting in high gain, high stability, and compact chip size. Self impedance matching and high-pass, low-pass impedance matching networks are used in the power amplifier. In measured results, the drive amplifier showed good return losses ($S_11,{\;}S_{22}{\;}<{\;}-10.5{\;}dB$), gain flatness ($S_{21}={\;}16{\;}{\pm}0.6{\;}dB$), and $P_{1dB}{\;}>{\;}22{\;}dBm$ over 6-18 GHz. The power amplifier showed $P_{1dB}{\;}>{\;}28.8{\;}dBm$ and $P_{sat}{\;}{\approx}{\;}30.0{\;}dBm$ with good small signal characteristics ($S_{11}<-10{\;}dB,{\;}S_{22}{\;}<{\;}-6{\;}dB,{\;}and{\;}S_{21}={\;}18.5{\;}{\pm}{\;}1.25{\;}dB$) over 6-18 GHz.
