The method of study describes the determination of the nanogram amounts of mono-, di-, and tri-butyltin compounds in sea water. The procedure is based on 1) the conversion of tin compounds to non-ionic species by sodium tetraethyl borate as an alkylation reagent, 2) one-step ethylation and 3) extraction. No further purification or concentration of the extract was required before GC-FPD (Flame Photometric Detector). The detection limits for mono-, di- and tri-butyltin were 12.50, 6.02, and 4.19 ng/L. The linear range (0-120 ng/L) was solely dependent on the detector response height. Sea water samples (n=24) were obtained from Masan Bay, Busan, Ullsan, Gunsan, Sockcho, Yeasu, Donghae, Inchun, Kanghwa, and Ahsan in Korea. The samples were collected between June, 1992 to July, 1992 and the distribution of monobutyltintrichloride (MBTC), dibutyltindichloride (DBTC), and tributyltinchloride (TBTC) in sea water was recorded. The concentrations of butyltin compounds in seawater were found to be in the range of N.D. (not detected)-61.93 ng/L for MBTC, N.D.-32.16 ng/L for DBTC, and N.D.-55.76 ng/L for TBTC.

맥각병은 맥류의 중요 병해로 이삭에 발생해서 종자형성을 저해하고, 이삭의 성숙정도에 따라서 종자보다 훨씬 큰 맥각을 형성하는병해이다. 따라서 마카로니밀의 trisomics을 이용하여 맥각병에 대한 라병정도와 염색체와의 관계를 구명하기 위하여, 출수 2~3일전의 이삭에 접종하였다. 1)개화직전의 소화에 맥각병의 분생포자액을 주입접한한 결과, 각 계통별로 90.0%~100.0%의 감염률을 나타냈고, 11.6%(Tri-6A)~83.4%(Tri-4A)의 균핵(맥각) 형성률을 보여, 완전한 면역성계통은 존재하지 않았다. 2)개화중인 소화에 분\ulcorner접종한 결과, 0%(Tri-6A)~83.4%(Tri-3A)의 맥각형성률를 나타내어, 주사접종에 비해 저하하는 현상을 보였다. 3)맥가의 성장상에 관해서 조사하였더니, 6A 염색체가 여분으로 존재하는 trisomics에서는 영외까지 성장한 맥각은 전혀 인정되지 않았다. 따라서 6A 염색체상에는 맥각에 생장을 억제하는 유전자가 존재하는것으로 추정되었다. 따라서 이 계통은 맥각병에 대한 내병성 밀육종에 도움이 될 것이다. 4) 2A, 4A 및 7B 염색체를 여분으로 갖고 있는 trisomics에서는 비교적 큰 맥각을 형성하여 2A, 4A 및 7B염색체상에는 맥각의 생장촉진 조절유전자가 위치하고 있는 것으로 추정되었다. 따라서 이것으리 3계통은 약용맥각생산용의 밀육종에 기초적 역할을 다할 것이다. 5) 이와같이 맥각병의 리병정도에 관흥하는 유전자가 염색체상에 존재하고 있는 것이 확실하게 밝혀졌다. 그러나 맥각병은 감염해서부터 발병할 때까지는 많은 일수를 필요로 하는 특미를 가지고 있으므로, 맥각병에 대한 본질적인 저항성 및 리병성 유전자라기 보다도 식물생육과정에서 병원균의 발병(발육)을 조절하는 생리적작용에 관계하고 있는 유전자의 역할이라고 은료되었다.

A threshold-based fall recognition algorithm using a tri-axial accelerometer and a bi-axial gyroscope mounted on the skin above the upper sternum was proposed to recognize fall-like activities of daily living (ADL) events. The output signals from the tri-axial accelerometer and bi-axial gyroscope were obtained during eight falls and eleven ADL action sequences. The thresholds of signal vector magnitude (SVM_Acc), angular velocity (${\omega}_{res}$), and angular variation (${\theta}_{res}$) were calculated using MATLAB. When the measured values of SVM_Acc, ${\omega}_{res}$, and ${\theta}_{res}$ were compared to the threshold values (TH1, TH2, and TH3), fall-like ADL events could be distinguished from a fall. When SVM_Acc was larger than 2.5 g (TH1), ${\omega}_{res}$ was larger than 1.75 rad/s (TH2), and ${\theta}_{res}$ was larger than 0.385 rad (TH3), eight falls and eleven ADL action sequences were recognized as falls. When at least one of these three conditions was not satisfied, the action sequences were recognized as ADL. Fall-like ADL events such as jogging and jumping up (or down) have posed a problem in distinguishing ADL events from an actual fall. When the measured values of SVM_Acc, ${\omega}_{res}$, and ${\theta}_{res}$ were applied to the sequential processing algorithm proposed in this study, the sensitivity was determined to be 100% for the eight fall action sequences and the specificity was determined to be 100% for the eleven ADL action sequences.

The PVP-based solid dispersion systems (SDs) containing lovastatin (LOS) and solubilizers (sodium lauryl sulfate, tween 80 and oleic acid) were prepared to enhance dissolution rate of practically water insoluble LOS using solvent evaporation method. Two different organic cosolvents either acetone/ethanol or acetonitrile/ethanol were used for the preparation of SDs. The LOS contents were highly decreased when acetone/ethanol cosolvents were used. The decrease of LOS contents was not caused by acetonitrile or acetone, based on HPLC data. The surface morphology as investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and angle of repose as an index of flowability of SDs were highly dependent on the type and amount of solubilizers used. Based on differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray powder diffraction data, the SDs made crystalline LOS into amorphous structure or partially eutectic mixtures. The simultaneous use of the solubilizers in SDs was also useful to increase dissolution rate of LOS in gastric or intestinal fluid. The SDs containing solubilizers reached 76% and 60% in gastric and intestinal fluid, respectively but the commercial tablet gave only less than 4%. These solubilizers in SDs could be also applicable for enhancing dissolution and bioavailability of poorly water-soluble drugs.

Aminocyclitol antibiotic validamycin A, a prime control agent for sheath blight disease of rice plants, is biosynthesized by Streptomyces hygroscopicus var. limoneus. Within the validamycin biosynthetic gene cluster, vldBC forms an operon of vldABC with vidA, the gene encoding 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone synthase. Biochemical studies, employing the recombinant proteins from Escherichia coli, established VldB and VldC as D-glucose $\alpha$-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase and glucokinase, respectively. This finding substantiates that the validamycin biosynthetic gene cluster harbors genes encoding the enzymes for UDP-glucose formation from glucose. Therefore, we propose that validamycin biosynthesis employs its own catalysts to generate UDP-glucose, but not depending on the primary metabolism.

This study examines how young speakers of Seoul Korean produce tri-consonantal clusters /1kt/ and /1pt/ as in palk-ta ('to be bright') and palp-ta ('to step on'). Production data were collected from 20 speakers of Seoul Korean. The results of narrow transcription of the data showed that simplification is not obligatory as some speakers often preserve all three consonants. When simplified, there was a clear asymmetry between /1kt/ and /1pt/. Speakers showed no clear preference for either C1 preservation (C1=/1/) or C2 preservation (C2=/k/ in /1kt/ and /p/ in /1pt/) in production of /1kt/, but in production of /1pt/, strong preference was found for C1-preserved to C2-preserved variant. When compared with production data in Cho (1999), simplification patterns appear to have changed over the past 10 years, in a direction to preserve the first member of the cluster (/1/) more often, especially with /1kt/. There was no substantial between-item variation, indicating that simplification patterns are not lexically specified. Finally, the results suggest that the process of tri-consonantal simplification has not been fully phonologized in the grammar of the language as evident in substantial inter- and intra-speaker variation.

In this study, the effect of the initial particle size distribution (PSD) of (K_0.5Na_0.5)NbO₃ powders on the microstructure of sintered ceramics was investigated. (K_0.5Na_0.5)NbO₃ powders with uni-, bi-, tri-, and quad-modal PSDs were obtained through a planetary ball-mill. For the specimens sintered at 1080℃, the growth of abnormal grains was promoted from the powders exhibiting quad- and tri-modal PSDs with a high content of large particles, resulting in a microstructure in which huge abnormal grains were predominant. However, as the number of peaks in PSD and the overall particle size decreased, the abnormal grain growth was suppressed and the grain growth of small particles started, resulting in a microstructure with a uniform grain size. For the specimens sintered at 1100℃, huge abnormal grains were not observed due to the decrease in the critical driving force for 2D nucleation even when powders with quad- and tri-modal PSDs were used. It was confirmed that when powder with unimodal PSD was used, a uniform microstructure that was not significantly affected by the sintering temperature could be obtained. The results of this study demonstrate that the microstructure of (K_0.5Na_0.5)NbO₃-based ceramics can be controlled by controlling the particle size of the initial powder.

The effectiveness of tri layer resist (TLR) technique is compared with that of single layer resist (SLR) technique in order to make a 0.8um pattern with the linewidth deviation of 10 percents. SLR technique is not appropriate to shape the micro-pattern on oxide and aluminum steps because of the standing wave effect and the light scattering effect in shaping the resist pattern. On the contrary, the uniform line with a width of 0.8um on oxide and aluminum steps can be formed by TLR technique, reducting such effects. The planarization and the light absorption coefficient of the bottom layer resist in TLR are optimized by exposing it to ultra violet light after baking it for 30min at 230\ulcorner. An uniform line with a width of 0.8um on oxide step is defined with the light absorption coefficient of 0.85 whereas that on aluminum step is defined with 0.95.
