For compensating the error motion of hydrostatic guideways, we introduce a way that the clearance of table is actively controlled corresponding to the amount of error with the variable capillary. The structure and the theoretical design method of active controlled capillary using piezo actuator, named ACC, are proposed in this paper. Basic characteristics such as the maximum controllable range, micro step response and available dynamic bandwidth are tested for confirmation of structural suitability of ACC, and these characteristics are also tested on the table mounted with ACC for verifying the availability. The experimental result showed that by the use of ACC, the error motion within 2.7 .mu. m of a hydrostatic guideway can be compensated with the resolution of 2.7nm, 1/100 contollable range, and the frequency bandwidth of 5.5 Hz. From these results, it is confirmed that the ACC is very effective to improve the motion accuracy of high or ultra precision hydrostatic guideways.

Carcadian rhythm dependence of vancomycin pharmacokinetics was evaluated in 5 normal volunteers receiving a single intravenous 1.0 g dose of vancomycin at 8 o'clock in the morning and another occasion at 8 o'clock in the evening in a crossover manner. The serum data were subjected to simultaneous computer nonlinear least squares regression analysis using a two-compartment pbarmacokinetic model. The mean half-life of vancomycin was $4.78\pm0.81$ hr in the morning and $4.25\pm0.51$ hr in the evening. The mean total body clearance of vancomycin was $1.29\pm0.58$ hr in the morning and $5.58\pm0.48$ hr in the evening. No circadian rhythm was found to be apparent in normal volunteers. The mean in intrasubject difference in the half-life between 8 A.M. and 8 P.M. was $15.4\%$ with fluctuations ranging from $10.4\sim33.8\%$, It is reasonable to consider individual circadian rhythm for effective dosage regimen of vancomycin in clinical chronotherapeutics.

The effect of circadian rhythm on gentamicin pharmacokinetics was studied in rabbits who took a single intravenous 2 mg/kg dose of gentamicin at 09:00 in the morning (a.m.) and 22:00 in the evening (p.m.). A significant circadian rhythm of pharmacokinetic parameters as a function of time of day was noted in rabbits, showing lower total body clearance $CL_t$ and higher serum area under the curve (AUC) when given in the evening. The half-life $t_{1/2}$ was shorter in the morning $(3.88\pm0.62h)$ when compared to the evening $(4.76\pm0.75\;h)$. The AUC was greater in the evening $(25.92\pm3.49\;{\mu}g/ml{\cdot}hr)$ than that in the morning $(22.42\pm3.42\;{\mu}g/ml{\cdot}hr)$, most likely because the CLt was significantly higher when gentamicin was given in the morning $(0.18\pm0.28\;ml/hr)$ versus in the evening $(0.15\pm0.26\;ml/hr)$. The $t_{1/2}$ of gentamicin in the evening was increased significantly(p<0.05) compared to those of gentamicin in the morning. It is reasonable to consider individual circadian rhythm for effective dosage regimen of gentamicin in clinical chronotherapeutics.

It has been reported that boron may be beneficial for optimal calcium metabolism and, thus, optimal bone metabolism. Therefore, we designed a study to determine the effect of boron supplementation on Ca and bone metabolism in rats. The rats of 80-l40g body weight were given a control(0ug), 5$\mu\textrm{g}$, 10$\mu\textrm{g}$, 20$\mu\textrm{g}$, 40$\mu\textrm{g}$, or 80$\mu\textrm{g}$ boron supplement per Is diet for 4-weeks. The results are summarized as follows. There were no differences in total food intake and weight gain among the experimental groups. fecal Ca excretion, urinary Ca excretion, apparent Ca absorption, Ca retention, serum alkaline phosphatase activity, and urinary hydroxyproline were not affected by boron supplementation. There was no difference in serum creatinine. Whereas, urinary creatinine excretion was increased with increasing boron supplementation, and conse-quently creatinine clearance was increased with boron supplementation. No differences were found in length, weight, density, Ca content of femur and scapular. The findings suggest that boron supplementation was not effective in Ca and bone metabolism in growing rats fed normal Ca diet. (Korean J Nutrition 31(6) : 1039-1048, 1998)

The crude polysaccharide from Panax ginseng prepared by hot water extration and precipiation with ethanol was further fractionated into neutral and acidic fractions by DEAE- cellulose ion exchange chromatography. The chemical compositions were 85.0% carbohydrorate and 15.0% protein for the neutral fraction, and 28.4% carbohydrate, 10.0% protein and 29.0% uronic acid for the acidic fraction. The acidic fraction was more effective in increasing of the ratio of spleen to body weight, the number of antibody secreting cells to SRBC and phagocytic activity of reticuloendothelial system, as well as antitumor activity against the solid form of sarcoma 180 in ICR mice than the neutral fraction. All polysaccharide fractions were mitogenic to cultured spleen cells of C57BL/6 mice. However, FA was different from FN in the co-mitogenicities with lectin mitogens. Both crude and acidic fractions potentiated remarkably the mitogenic activity of PHA-P or LPS in dose-dependent manner but neutral fraction enhanced only that of LPS. Three polysaccharide fractions had no effect on that of Con A. These results suggest that the acidic fraction may stimulate B and Td cells as well as macrophages while the neutral fraction may simulate only B cells and macropages.

This research developed an intravenous (IV) vancomycin dosing nomogram based on the clinical pharmacokinetic data of Korean adult patients. Total 99 pairs of steady-state peak and trough serum concentrations of vancomycin were obtained from 73 adult patients in a tertiary general hospital. Serum vancomycin concentrations were determined to assess the appropriateness of initial vancomycin dosing. Only 47.2% of the cases were within therapeutic range. To characterize the clinical pharmacokinetics (PK) of vancomycin, PK parameters including elimination rate constant ( $K_{e}$) half-life( $T_{1}$2/), clearance (C $l_{van}$), volume of distribution ( $V_{d}$) were calculated by using one-compartment, first order pharmacokinetic equations. PK parameters were evaluated based on the differences of patients'renal function and age. Regression analysis showed a significant correlation between C $l_{van}$ and $C_{cr}$ (C $l_{van}$ = -1.89+0.914 $C_{cr}$ , r=0.763) and between $K_{e}$ and $C_{cr}$ , ( $K_{e}$=-0.0037+0.00139 $C_{cr}$ =0.724). The relationship between $K_{e}$ and $C_{cr}$ , and the mean $V_{d}$ were utilized for developing the nomogram to individualize the initial dosing regimen of vancomycin for the patients with various degrees of renal functions. The nomogram may be used as an efficient tool to determine safe and effective doses of vancomycin for the Korean adult patients.nts.nts.nts.s.nts.

Micro-holes of conductive ceramic are required in micro structures. Micro-electrical discharge machining (Micro-EDM) is an effective machining method since EDM is as process for shaping hard metals and complex-shaped holes by spark erosion in all kinds of electro-conductive materials. However, as the depth of micro hole increases, the machining condition becomes more unstable due to inefficient removal of debris between the electrode and the workpiece. In this paper, micro-EDM was performed to evaluate machining characteristic such as electrode wear, machining time, taper angle, radial clearance with varying voltage and ultrasonic vibration on 10 vol.% Carbon-nanotube reinforced conductive $Al_2O_3$ composite fabricated by spark plasma sintering in previous research.
