The goal of this research was (1) to describe the conditions and parameters required for the cell cycle synchronization and the accumulation of large number of metaphase cells in maize and other cereal root tips, (2) to isolate intact metaphase chromosomes from root tips suitable for characterization by flow cytometry, and (3) to construct chromosome-specific libraries from maize. Plant metaphase chromosomes have been successfully synchronized and isolated from many cereal root-tips. DNA synthesis inhibitor (hydroxyurea) was used to synchronize cell cycle, follwed by treatement with trifluralin to accumulate metaphase chromosomes. Maize flow karyotypes show substantial variation among inbred lines. thish variation should be sueful in isolating individual chromosome types. In addition, flow cytometry is a useful method to measure DNA content of individual chromosomes in a genotyps, and to detect chromosomal variations. Individual chromosome peaks have been sorted from the maize hybrid B73/Mol7. Libraries were generated form the DOP-PCR amplification product from each peak. To date, we have analyzed clones from a library constructed from the maize chromosome 1 peak. Hybridization of labeled genomic DNA to clone inserts indicated that $24\%,\;18\%,\;and\;58\%$ of the clones were highly repetitive, medium repetitive, and low copy, respectively. Fifty percent of putative low cpoy clones showed single bands on inbred screening, blots, and the remaining $50\%$ were low copy repeats. Single copy clones showing polymorphism will be mapped using recombinant inbred mapping populations. Repetitive clones are being characterized by Southern blot analysis, and will be screened by in situ hybridization for their potential utility as chromosome specific markers.

Modified mordenites by HF treatement, which have different $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio, and those mixed with $\gamma$-alumina are prepared and used for catalytic cracking of triphenylmethane(TPM) in micro-activity tester(MAT). Dealumination of mordenites decreased the acid content but developed secondary mesopores. The conversion and the selectivity of benzene over modified mordenites with the mesopores were increased. However, for the further dealuminated mordenites, they decreased due to the destruction of pore structure and low acid amount. Accordingly, the maximum cracking activity and the maximum selectivity of benzene were obtained about 17 $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio of modified mordenites. The modified mordenites mixed with alumina enhanced the cracking activity of TPM compared with the pure mordenites. It can be explained that TPM is cracked at active sites with in large pores of alumina firstly and further cracked into small molecules in zeolite pores as step mechanism of catalytic cracking.

This study is aimed to investigate the effect of various thermomechanical treatments($T_6$, $T_8$ and ITMT) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of an Al-Cu-Li-Ag-Mg-Zr alloy (Weldalite 049) which has been known to strong natural aging response, good weldablity and high strength in $T_6$ sand $T_8$ temper. This experiment was performed by means of differential scaning calorimetry, tensile test, optical and transmission electron microscopy. The tensile strength in the peak aged condition shows 620, 650 MPa in $T_6$ and $T_8$(40% cold work), respectively. Also, The tensile strength is increased with cold working in $T_8$ but decreased at 60% cold working. However, the tensile strength of the intermediate thermomechanical treated speciman(ITMT) is lower than that of $T_6$ temper about 20% but the elongation is higher than two times. It might be predicted that the ITMT is effective processing to improve the toughness of this alloy. In $T_6$, $T_8$ and ITMT, the major strengthening phase is $T_1(Al_2CuLi)$ phases. and the fine $T_1$ phase which are homogeneously precipited in matrix was observed much more in $T_8$ than $T_6$ and ITMT.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Lycii fructus extract on the serum lipids in hyperlipemia rats. The rats were divided five groups including negative control, positive control and treated L. fructus extract at dose of 50, 100, 200 mg/kg. To induce the hyperlipemia, 4 groups of rats, not including the negative control group, were fed experimental diets consisting of cholesterol, lard, corn oil, and normal diet for experiment period. As a result, the L. fructus extract decreased total cholesterol(T. Cho), trigryceride(TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), and free fatty acid(FFA) significantly compared with positive control. However, no significant difference was found in high density lipoprotein(HDL-C) and phospholipid(PPL) level. Otherwise, in serum lipid level including, T-Cho, TG, LDL-C, FFA and PPL was decreased dose dependently by treatment of L. fructus extract. But HDL-C was increased by L. fructus extract too. Thereby having beneficial effect on hyperlipermia by influencing the serum lipid change, it is expected that Lycii fructus extract can suppress arteriosclerosis and obesity.

In order to develope new asymmetric catalyst, we synthesized the following new sulfonamide derivatives start from S-Indoline-2-Carboxylic Acid via the following 5 steps. Hydroxy methyl derivative(1) was thus treated with methane sulfonyl chloride in the presence of triethylamine as base to give mesylated derivative(2) in 85% of isolated yield. The mesylate compound (2) was treated with excess sodium azide to give Azido derivative (4) in 95% isolated yield. Azido compound (3) was then reduced to the corresponding amino derivative in near quntitative yield by the hydrogenation under hydrogen atmospere in the presence of catalytic amount of Pd-C. The amino derivative (4) was converted to its sulfonamide derivatives by the treatment of compound(4) with triisopropyl benzene sulfonyl chloride in the presence of triethyl amine as base. Finally t-BOC group of the compound(5) was removed by the treatement of excess Trifluoro-acetic acid in near quantitative yield to give the target sulfonamide derivative (7) .in this paper we prepared compound(6) in 49% overall yield via the 5 steps of synthesis starting from t-Boc- 2-hydroxy methyl indoline(1) which cab be easily prepared from commercial available S-indoline-2-carboxylic acid by known methods. we plan to apply this new catalyst for the asymmetric reduction , diels-alder reaction, aldolcondensation reaction in due courses.

This study was performed to determine the optimum coagulant dosing for effective treatment of raw water in Chinyang lake. Removal rates of algae and characteristics of the water according to coagulants dosage were investigated by treatment with Microcystis aeruginosa, which is a kind of blue-green algae, to the raw water below 5NTU. The coagulants dosage for maximum removal rate of algae were 30 mg/$\ell$ of Alum, 30 mg/$\ell$ of PAC and 10 mg/$\ell$ of PACS, respectively. The removal rate of algae in 30 mg/$\ell$ of PAC was highest as 85% compared with the other treatments. At the point of maximum removal rate of algae, the removal rates of turbidity were 34%, 66% and 22% in Alum, PAC and PACS, respectively. Residual Al was decreased depend upon decreasing turtidity in water by treatment of Alum or PAC, but decreased depend upon increasing turbidity in water by treatment of PACS. The removal rate of ${Mn}_{2+}$ in water was high in the order of Alum, PAC and PACS treatment. And ${Fe}_{2+}$ in water was not changed by treatemnt of these coagulants. Particle numbers distributions according to the particle size of suspended solids that were not precipitated at 8 min. of settling time after treatment of coagulants dosage for the maximum removal rate of algae were investigated. Most of the particle sizes were below 30 $\mu$m and particle numbers distributions below 10 $\mu$m were 64%, 56% and 66% by treatment of Alum, PAC and PACS, respectively. Zeta potential was in the range of -6.1~-9.7 mV at optimum coagulants dosage for algae removal.
