Twenty Landrace and twenty Min piglets, with an average initial body weight of 22.4 kg, were randomly divided into 5 groups with 4 animals per group, within each of the breeds. The piglets were housed in individual concrete pens. Each group of the piglets was fed one of 5 diets. The diets contained either 20% raw Argentine soybeans, 20% processed Argentine soybeans ($118^{\circ}C$ for 7.5 min.), 20% raw Chinese soybeans, 20% processed Chinese soybeans ($118^{\circ}C$ for 7.5 min.) or no soybean products (control diet). Faecal samples were collected on days 6, 7 and 8 of the treatment period. Digestibilities of dietary nutrients were determined with AIA (acid insoluble ash) as a marker. After a 17 day treatment, three piglets were killed from each of the groups. Tissue samples of small and large intestine for light and electron microscopy examination were taken immediately after the opening of abdomen. Then, the weight or size of relevant organs was measured. The results show that the digestibilities of dry matter (DM), crude protein (CP) and fat were higher in Min piglets than in Landrace piglets (p<0.05). The diets containing processed soybeans had a significant higher CP digestibility than the control diet and the diets containing raw soybeans (p<0.05). Landrace piglets had heavier and longer small intestines, heavier kidneys and a lighter spleen than Min piglets (p<0.05). The pancreas of the animals fed the diets containing processed soybeans was heavier than that of the animals fed control diet (p<0.05) and the diets containing raw soybeans. But, the differences between raw and processed soybean diets were not significant. A significant interaction (p<0.05) between diet and pig breed was observed in weight of the small intestine. The Landrace piglets increased the weight in their small intestine when they were fed the diets containing soybeans. In the light micrographs and electron scanning micrographs, it was found that the villi of small intestinal epithelium of animals (especially Landrace piglets) fed the diets containing raw Chinese soybeans were seriously damaged. The transmission electron micrograph showed that a lot of vesicles were located between the small intestinal microvilli of these piglets. The histological examination also indicated that the proportion of goblet cells in villi and crypts in the piglets consuming the control diet was significantly lower (p<0.01 and p<0.02, respectively) than those of the animals consuming the diets containing raw or processed soybeans.

제사공장에서 부산물로 나오는 번데기는 단백질의 함량이 높을 뿐 아니라 필수 아미노산 조성도 우수하여 영양적으로 좋은 단백질원으로 알려져 있다. 이에 번데기로 농축단백질을 조제해서 무수초산과 호박산으로 아실화시켜 아미노산조성 및 주사전자현미경에 의한 관찰을 대두농축단백질과 비교 검토하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 번데기 농축단백질의 단백질 함량은 84.1%로서 대두농축단백질의 70.3%보다 높았다. 2. 번데기 농축단백질은 아미노산 조성에 있어서 대두농축단백질보다 필수 아미노산 함량이 높았으며 특히 대두에 부족한 methionine은 4.21(g/100g)로 매우 높았고, F.A.O.의 scoring pattern과 비교시 전체적으로 필수 아미노산이 함량이 높았다. 또한 번데기 농축단백질은 alanine, valine, phenylanine, isoleucine 등 지방족 아미노산의 함량이 높게 나타났다. 한편 변형번데기단백질에서는 아미노산의 함량에 약간의 손실을 가져왔으며 숙시닐화에서 더 큰 경향을 나타내었고 특히 lysine의 함량이 현저하게 감소되었다. 3. 주사전자현미경에 의한 관찰에서 탈지번데기분은 작고 입자가 많이 모여 하나의 agglomerate의 형태로 거칠고 세포성이 그대로 보존되어 있다. 기포의 생성이 많았으며 입자가 불균일(10~$20\mu{m}$)하였다. 번데기 농축단백질은 탈지번데기분보다 세포성이 많이 파괴되어 기포의 생성도 적어 입자의 표면적이 어느정도 넓고 부드러웠다. 또한 변형번데기농축단백질에서는 현저하게 세포성이 파괴되고 가 감소하여 좋은 조직을 형성하였으며 특히 숙시닐화한 단백질에서는 아주 부드럽고 좋은 조직을 나타내었다.

근육의 미세구조는 즉살의 경우, 근섬유의 A대, I대 및 M-line이 뚜렷하게 관찰되었으나, 전기 자극한 것은 근섬유의 가는 섬유가 굵은 섬유 사이로 미끌어져 들어가 I대가 불분명하였으며. 자극 시간이 길어질수록 Z-line의 연속성은 현저하게 소실되었다. 근소포체의 미세구조는 즉 살의 경우, Z-line을 사이에 두고 원래의 상태를 유지하고 있었으나. 전기 자극한 것은 자극 시간이 길어질수록 근소포체가 뭉쳐지거나 파괴된 형태를 보이고 있었으며, 저장 10시간째 더욱 현저하게 나타났다. 근소포체의 $Ca^{2+}$-translocation을 살펴본 결과. 즉살 직후에는 근소포체 내부에 $Ca^{2+}$이 관찰되었으나. 전기자극을 가한 것은 근섬유에 분포되는 경향을 보였으며 이러한 현상은 전기자극 시간이 길어질수록 현저한 경향을 나타내었다 저장 10시간 후에는 즉살에서도 근섬유에 $Ca^{2+}$이 관찰되었다.

The mechanism of interaction between low energy ions and biological organisms has been paid much attention recently. In order to clarify the microstructural response to low energy ion irradiation embryonic cells of Paeonia rockii L. implanted by $Fe^{1+}$ ions with the energy of 80KeV were investigated by Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning electron Microscopy(SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM). At the dose of 1$\times$1015 ions/$\textrm{cm}^2$, apparent cellular damage was observed in the outer several layers of the radicle. The shape of the cells was obviously deformed from regular polygon to irregular. The cell walls became obscure. SEM micrographs showed that the surface of the radicle was etched severely. It was observed by TEM that nucleus of the implanted cell was elongated and tended to fracture. Nuclear envelope lost its integrity. The implanted $Fe^{1+}$ ions were detected by Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS). These observations showed that low energy ions could damage to the plant organisms with the thickness of about 30~50$\mu\textrm{m}$. The possible reasons for radiation damage in the biological organisms were discussed.

Campylobacter jejuni was studied for its disinfection by heat-and cold-treatment and UV-irradiation. When C. jejuni was treated by heat, no viable cell was found after 10 min treatment at $55^{\circ}C$, whereas small fraction of cell population was survived after 60 min treatment at $45^{\circ}C$ and $50^{\circ}C$. When they were treated by cold temperature for 30 days, no cell was survived at -$23^{\circ}C$ but about 4 log of the cells were survived at both temperature of $4^{\circ}C$ and -$40^{\circ}C$. When the organisms were UV-irradiated, thier survival rates were proportionally varied to the distance of irradiation. The scanning electron microscopic studies of C. jejuni cells treated by the disinfecting agents revealed that shapes of thecells were deformed from spiral rod into spherical form. The heat-treated cells showed rough and damaged surface on the scanning electron micrographs. In the heat-treated cells, some proteins of high molecular weight appeared to become accumulated in the electrophoretic analysis. The DNAs extracted from the cells treated with the physical agents showed some differences in agarose gel electrophoresis, comparing those of normal cells.

Activated carbon spheres (ACS) were prepared at different heating rates by carbonization of the resole-type phenolic beads (PB) at $950^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ atmosphere followed by activation of the resultant char at different temperatures for 5 h in $CO_2$ atmosphere. Influence of heating rate on porosity and temperature on carbon structure and porosity of ACS were investigated. Effect of heating rate and temperature on porosity of ACS was also studied from adsorption isotherms of nitrogen at 77 K using BET method. The results revealed that ACS have exhibited a BET surface area and pore volume greater than $2260\;m^2/g$ and $1.63\;cm^3/g$ respectively. The structural characteristics variation of ACS with different temperature was studied using Raman spectroscopy. The results exhibited that amount of disorganized carbon affects both the pore structure and adsorption properties of ACS. ACS were also evaluated for structural information using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. ACS were evaluated for chemical composition using CHNS analysis. The ACS prepared different temperatures became more carbonaceous material compared to carbonized material. ACS have possessed well-developed pores structure which were verified by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). SEM micrographs also exhibited that ACS have possessed well-developed micro- and meso-pores structure and the pore size of ACS increased with increasing activation temperature.

Blooms of Chattonella species are normally during summer in inland seas with high nutrients from the land and inflowing water. These blooms cause mass fish kills worldwide. We isolated a Chattonella strain from the south coast of Korea and identified it as C. antiqua. It is known that the morphological changes of phytoplankton correspond to the diurnal vertical migrations that follow an intrinsic biological clock and a nutrient acquisition mechanism during the day and night. In electron micrographs, C. antiqua clearly showed a radial distribution of lipid bodies in subcellular regions and plastids composed in which thylakoid layers were perpendicular to the surface. A single pyrenoid was present in each plastid and it was found at the end of the plastid towards the center of the cell. Throughout the day, plastids of C. antiqua cells appeared as an expanded net-like recticulum. During the night, however, the plastids changed their shape and contracted toward the cell periphery. The electron density of pyrenoids was increased in cells harvested during the night.

To resolve some of the most pressing uncertainties of Peridinium identity, morphological characteristics of Korean Peridinium were examined using light and scanning electron microscopy. The Peridinium samples were collected from three different regions of Juam, Sang-sa and Togyo Reservoirs, when seasonal blooms occurred. Formula of the epithecal plate was recorded with 7 precingular, 3 intercalary, and 4 apical plates (4', 3a, 7"). An apical pore, 3 ${\sim}$ 5 ${\mu}m$ in size, was apparently present. The cingulum was easily observed under light microscope, and was considerably offset by about 15 ${\mu}m$ (2 ${\sim}$ 3 times per cingulum width). The sulcus was straight longitudinally and widened apparently towards the antapex. None of spine was found on the surface of the thecal plates on scanning electron micrographs. The average body length was 50.4 ${\mu}m$ with a range of 29 ${\sim}$ 63 ${\mu}m$. The geometric dimension, as designated to the body length:width ratio, was found from calculation to be 1.12 with a range of 1.00 ${\sim}$ 1.35, therefore, the cell was shown slightly elongated. Based on their morphology, the causative organisms of red tides in three different Korean waters were identified as P. bipes f. occultatum, which was reported for the first time in Korea.

Most cellulose resources come from the higher plants, but bacteria also synthesize same cellulose as in plants. Many scientists have been widely studied on the bacterial cellulose, the process development, manufacturing, even marketing of cellulose fibers. The bacterial celluloses are very different in its physical and morphological structures. These fibers have many unique properties that are potentially and commercially beneficial. The fine fibers can produce a smooth paper with enchanced its strength property. But there gave been few reports on the mechanical properties of the processing of bacterial cellulose into structural materials. This study were performed to elucidate the mechanical properties of sheets prepared from bacterial cellulose. Also reinforcing effect of bacterial cellulose on the conventional pulp paper as well as surface structures by scanning electron microscopy were discussed. Paper made from bacterial cellulose is 10 times much stronger than ordinary chemical pulp sheet, and the mixing of bacterial cellulose has a remarkable reinforcing effect on the papers. Mechanical strengthes were increased with the increase of bacterial cellulose content in the sheet. This strength increase corresponds to the increasing water retention value and sheet density with the increase of bacterial cellulose content. Scanning electron micrographs were shown that fine microfibrills of bacterial celluloses covered on the surfaces of hardwood pulp fibers, and enhanced sheet strength by its intimate fiber bonding.
