In this study, the effects of four major river project and Kumho River, second biggest branch of Nakdong River, were investigated to provide basic data for proper management of Nakdong River's water quality. Daily sampling processes at three different points, Munsanri (the upper side of Kangjung-Koryung weir), Kangchang (the outlet of the Kumho River) and Samunjin (the lower side of Kangjung-Koryung weir and junction of Kumho River and Nakdong River), were conducted from May 1st 2011 to Sep. 4th 2011. Water samples were analyzed for nine factors, DO, BOD, COD, T-N, T-P, pH, turbidity, SS, and coliform. As demonstrated by the results, concentrations of BOD, T-N, T-P and coliform at Nakdong River were affected by water quality of Kumho River while SS and turbidity were affected by constructions for Kangjung-Koryung weir. Further studies, for example, affects of wastewater treatment facilities, should be followed.

The arrangement and the number of vascular bundle in petiole were investigated with the hybrid Populus alba${\times}$P. glandulosa and both parents. 1. The variation in number and the arrangement of the vascular bundle in petiole were smaller at middle point than at nearer point to the leaf blade. 2. A small variation was found in the arrangement of the vascular bundle within a tree, same clone and same species. 3. Five shapes of vascular bundle were recognized in the $F_1$ hybrid, 26.7 per cent of the $F_1$ hybrid has the same shape with P. alba, 13.3 percent with P. glandulosa and 53.3 per cent of the $F_1$ hybrid shows the $F_1$ shape caused by hybridization. 4. The hybrid clones which show the same shape with P. alba are 66-20-1, 66-6-8, 65-22-11 and 64-6-44, hybrid clones of 65-95, 66-14-93 have the same shape with P. glandulosa. Hybrid clones of 66-15-3, 67-6-3, 65-22-4, 66-26-55, 68-1-54, 66-14-99, 65-29-19, 66-25-5 have $F_1$ shape.

From the 70% EtOH extract of Paeonia lactiflora roots (Paeoniaceae), fourteen phenolic and related compounds were isolated. They were identified as ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ (1), dioctylphthalate (2), ${\alpha}-tocospiro$ B (3), paeonol (4), 3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid(5), 3,4'-di-O-methylellagic acid (6), benzoic acid (7), aromadendrin (8), p-hydroxybenzoic acid (9), (+)-catechin (10), gallic acid (11), nicotinamide (12), methyl gallate (13) and $1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-{\beta}-D-glucose$ (14) by spectroscopic methods. Among these compounds, 1-3, 5, 6, 8 and 12 were isolated for the first time from this plant.

Prickly pear juice(PPJ) extracted from prickly pear fruit (Opuntia ficus-indica)was used as raw material for the production of alcoholic beverages. Prickly pear juice (PPJ) had 0.88 oBrix of soluble solid, pH 3.96 and 0.14% of total acidity. Alcohol fermentation of 25% PPJ including 22 oBrix of sugar and 1$\times$106 of inoculum was suitable for alcohol fermentation indicating the rapid decrease of sugar content. The 22 oBrix of sugar in PPJ (25%)GJ (50%) mixture was changed to 6.5 oBrix after fermentation at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The alcohol content was 9.2% (w/v). PPJ (70%)/GJ (30%) mixture produced alcoholic beverage with 6.9% alcohol content resulting in the gradual decrease of soluble for 7 days. On the other hand, PPJ (50%)/GJ(50%) mixture carried out completely the alcohol fermentation at 22$^{\circ}C$ for 6 days and enhanced the red color of alcoholic beverages.

In this study, we investigated the mechanism of inhibition of pathogenic bacteria by Pediococcus pentosaceus strain SH-10 isolated from hard Clam Meretrix meretrix sikhae. When P. pentosaceus SH-10 was co-cultured in MRS broth with pathogenic bacteria, including Bacillus cereus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella choleraesuis and Staphyloccus aureus, no viable pathogenic cells were detected after 18 h of incubation. However, pediocin or a pediocin-like bacteriocin was not detected in cultures of P. pentosaceus SH-10 by the agar diffusion method. Organic acids were produced in MRS broth in proportion to the incubation time of P. pentosaceus SH-10. These results indicate that P. pentosaceus SH-10 inhibited the growth of pathogenic bacteria by lowering the pH of the growth medium through the production of organic acids, including sodium lactate, sodium acetate, and sodium citrate.

Purpose: We investigated a better method to enhance the vestibular system including balancing by comparing the vestibular stimulation exercise (VSE) and galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS). Methods: The study was performed with 40 subjects randomized into four groups, including a control group, a VSE group, a GVS group, and a VSE with GVS group. The subjects of VSE performed a forward and backward roll, a right side and left side roll, and an equilibrium board in vestibular stimulation training. GVS was applied for 10 minutes and the cathode and anode side were then changed and GVS was then applied for the remaining 10 minutes. GVS was applied for 20 minutes to the subjects of this group after completion of the VSE program. Results: In the control group, all conditions were significantly decreased (p<0.05) compared to the VSE with GVS group. Also, the center of pressure (CoP) surface was more significantly decreased (p<0.01) and the CoP speed was significantly decreased in the one legged stance (p<0.05) in the control group compared to the GVS group. Conclusion: These findings suggested that GVS training increases balance ability in a narrow width. VSE with GVS training is therefore recommend as the superior method. Using GVS or VSE with GVS training is considered to clinically improve balance ability by stimulating the vestibular system.

When DNA replication of simian virus 40 (SV40) is initiated on the replication origin, the regions containing the initiation sites of DNA primase, which participates in the transient RNA primer synthesis for formation of Okazaki fragments in the lagging strand, were chosen as the target sites of antisense RNA for studies of the inhibition of SV40 DNA replication. Four recombinant transcription vectors, pUC-PrI, pUC-PrII, pGEM-PrBS, and pGEM-PrSN, coding antisense RNA, were constructed. Four antisense RNAs (named as I, II, BS, and SN) having the size of 18, 19,58, and 123 nts, respectively, were made from the transcription vectors by in vitro transcription. And then, antisense RNA in the concentration of 2${\mu}m$ were added to COS cells transfected with pATSV-W which is a recombinant plasmid containing the SV40 origin of replication. The inhibitory extent of DNA replication was measured by DpnI resistance and was confirmed by measurement of transient RNA primer synthesis. The result shows that six combinations of antisense RNA (I, II, BS, SN, I+SN, and BS+SN) lead to the inhibition of SV40 DNA replication by up to 85%.

Tris(hydroxyethyl) phosphate, ethylphosphoramidic dichloride, N,N-diethylphosphoramidic dichloride, bis(hydroxyethyl) N-ethylphosphoramidate and bis(hydroxyethyl) N,N-diethylphosphoramidate were synthesized and characterized. Phosphate and phosphoramidates were polymerized with the elimination of ethylene glycol when heated under reduced pressure and they gave no molecular ion peaks in their mass spectra. And also ethylphosphoramidic dichloride gave polymeric products at 180$^{\circ}C$ with the evolution of HCl. IR spectra showed characteristic P=O streching bands in the range of 1,300 to$ 1,200 cm^{-1}.$

Phosphates and phosphoric amides were synthesized by the reaction of phosphoryl chloride with allyl alcohol, 2,3-dibromopropanol, 2-pyrrolidone and ethylenimine. All of these compounds were thermally very unstable. Allyl phosphorodichoridate and diallyl phosphorochloridate gave significant amount of polymeric products when they were distilled. IR spectra showed characteristic P=O stretching bands between 1300 and $1200 cm^{-1}$ and NMR spectra were very complicated due to the long range coupling effect of phosphorus atom. And mass spectrum of 2,3-dibromopropyl phosphorodichloridate gave no indication of molecular ion peak.
