The effect of ginseng saponin on the release of free fatty acid from adipose tissue was studied in vitro. 1. The mobilization of free fatty acid from intact epididymal fat pad of rat, incubated in Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer (pH 7.4) contained bovine serum albumin (4 w/v%), was increased by addition of ginseng sponin (1 mg/ml). 2. The mobilization of free fatty acid from homogenate of the epididymal fat pad of rat, of which hormone-sensitive lipese system was activated by pre-incubation of intact fat pad in the presence of epinephrine, was markedly increased by addition of ginseng saponin $(0.1{\sim}1mg/ml)$. 3. It is considered that ginseng saponin potentiate the actions of epinephrine on hormone-sensitive lipase system of the adipose tissue of rat.

In the fisheries industry, the cost of oil Is the greatest factor, contributing 25% 40% of the cost of production. In order to support fisheries, the government has supplied large amounts of money for oil to the fisheries industry. However, the elimination and restriction against the subsidy of fisheries has been actively discussed throughout international organizations Including the WTO. The purpose of this thesis is to study the existing issue of subsidies on the fisheries Industry, which is currently disputed in international organizations, and predict a future policy about the oil supply that considers the most important factors on fisheries. In chapter 2, the paper begins by outlining the tendencies of discussion in relation to the subsidy on fisheries among international organizations, and categorizes them on the basis of their types. Chapter 3 defines the current conditions and characteristics of the Korean subsidy on fisheries and analyzes which portions of the subsidy on fisheries should be eliminated first when it is prohibited. In chapter 4, procedures and problems for producing tax-free oil are discussed, because tax-free oil has a higher possibility of being ruled out. Chapter 5 proposes a reasonable plan concerning oil supply policies for maintenance or enrichment of the fishing industries, post the elimination of subsidies. Conclusions were drawn in eight areas as a result of this study: 1) securing the large storage of oil, 2) extending customers of oil to include non-fishermen, 3) coordinating the segmentation of marketing area, 4) diversification of the sales goods, 5) producing oil sales experts, 6) developing original brands, 7) expanding the purchasing area to buy oil in the international market, and 8) operating funds to stabilize oil price. It would not be appropriate to wait until international organizations decide to ban the subsidy of fisheries. Corresponding plans ( such as securing the large storage of oil) tend to be large scale and long-term projects because they take a number of years, from designing the oil storage tank to selecting the proper region and initiating the construction. Therefore, it is strongly suggested that any extensive and time consuming projects including preparation for the tax-free oil should be completed in new actions before the ban by the international organizations.

Here, we report a novel fabrication technique for patchable organic lasing sheet based on non-volatile liquid organic semiconductors and freestanding polymeric film with high flexibility and patchability. For this work, we have fabricated the second-order DFB grating structure, which leads to surface emission, embedded in the freestanding polymeric film. Using an ultra-violet (UV) curable polyurethaneacrylate (PUA) mixture, the periodic DFB grating structure can be easily prepared on the freestanding polymeric film via a simple UV curing process. Due to unsaturated acrylate remained in the PUA mixture after UV curing, the freestanding PUA film provides adhesive properties, which enable mounting of the patchable organic lasing sheet onto non-flat surfaces with conformal contact. To achieve laser actions in the freestanding resonator structure, a composite material of liquid 9-(2-ethylhexyl)carbazole (EHCz) and organic laser dyes was used as the laser medium. Since the degraded active materials can be easily refreshed by a simple injection of the liquid composite, such a non-volatile liquid organic semiconducting medium has degradation-free and recyclable characteristics in addition to other strong advantages including tunable optoelectronic responses, solvent-free processing, and ultimate mechanical flexibility and uniformity. Lasing properties of the patchable organic lasing sheet were also investigated after mounting onto non-flat surfaces, showing a mechanical tunability of laser emission under variable surface curvature. It is anticipated that these results will be applied to the development of various patchable optoelectronic applications for light-emitting displays, sensors and data communications.

A stemming algorithm for the Korean language free-text retrieval system has been designed and implemented. The algorithm contains three major parts and it operates iteratively ; firstly, stop-words are removed with a use of a stop-word list ; secondly, a basic removing procedure proceeds with a rule table 1, which contains the suffixes, the postpositional particles, and the optionally adopted symbols specifying an each stemming action ; thirdly, an extended stemming and rewriting procedures continue with a rule table 2, which are composed of th suffixes and the optionally combined symbols representing various actions depending upon the context-sensitive rules. A test was carried out to obtain an indication of how successful the algorithm was and to identify any minor changes in the algorithm for an enhanced one. As a result of it, 21.4 % compression is achieved and an error rate is 15.9%.

Objectives : This study was done to examine the antioxidant actions of free radicals caused by Banryong-hwan in blood.. Methods : Twelve week-old SD rats were divied into normal group, control group and HTG group. Control and HTG groups were age-induced with D-galactose, and extract of Banryong-hwan(BRH) was administerd to BRH group for six weeks. After then, blood was taken, and activities of SOD and GSH-px in erythrocytes were measured, as well as TBARS levels and concentrations of total lipid tryglyceride in plasma. Results : 1. The activities of SOD and GSH-px in erythrocytes were significantly increased in the BRH group compared with control group. 2. The concentration of total lipid was significantly decreased in the BRH group compared with control group. The values of TBARS and the concentrations of tryglyceride in plasma showed a tendency to decrease but they were not remarkable. Conclusions : Judging from the above findings, it is suggested that Banryong-hwan decrease the activities of free radical, the concentrations of lipid in plasma and generate enzyme which form lipid peroxide.

Aging is the progressive accumulation of changes with time associated with responsible for the ever-increasing susceptibility to disease and death which accompanies advancing age. Lipid peroxides easily produced in the membrane system by the chain reaction of free radicals which occurred from various environmental factors. The amount of lipid peroxides produced in biological system increased with aging process, and lipid peroxidation damages involved in aging process and pathological disorders. Although lipid peroxides have such deleterious effects on the organisms, there are numerous substances and mechanisms which prevent the reaction of peroxide formation and protect the subject from its toxicity. This review provides an overview of how does lipid peroxidation of unsaturated lipids take place by free radical, and what is the intervention of lipid peroxides in pathogenesis of some human diseases, and also how does food restriction influences the aging process and various pathological disorders. The major focus of this paper is to review the evidence indicating that food restriction retards the aging process, and possible mechanisms of its actions. Therefore, it discussed the effects of age and food restriction on life-span, membrane yield, lipid peroxidation, fatty acid composition and peroxidizability, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, prostaglasndin and thromboxane synthesis, which may be concerned with blood flow, membrane fluidity, homeostasis and glomerular filtration rate in living body.

This paper presents the results of a study into the dynamic behaviour of a support structure of a mobile elevating work platform. The vibrations of the mechanical system of the observed structure are examined analytically, numerically, and experimentally. Within the analytical examination, a simple mathematical model is developed to describe free and forced vibrations. The dynamic analysis of the mechanical system is conducted using a discrete dynamic model with a reduced number of vibrational degrees of freedom. On the basis of the expression for the system energy, and by applying Lagrange's equations of the second kind, differential equations are derived for system vibrations, frequencies are determined, and the laws of forced platform vibration are established. At the same time, a nonlinear FEM model is developed and the laws of free and forced vibration are determined. The experimental and numerical part of the study deal with the examination of the real structure in extreme conditions, taking into account: the lowest eigenfrequency, forced actions that could endanger the general stability, the maximal amplitudes, and the acceleration of the work platform. The obtained analytical and numerical results are compared with the experiments. The experimental verification points to the adverse behaviour of the platform in excitation cases - swaying. In such a situation, even a relatively small physical force can lead to unacceptably high amplitudes of displacement and acceleration - exceeding the usual work values.

In order to establish a dynamic model test method of bridge pylons subjected to ocean waves, the similarity method of hydroelastic model test for bridge pylons were analyzed systematically, and a model design and production method was proposed. Using this method, a dynamic test model of a bridge pylon was made, and then a free vibration test on the model structure and a dynamic response test of the model structure under wave actions were conducted in a wave flume. The results of the free vibration test show that the primary natural frequencies of the structure by the model test are close to the design frequencies of the prototype structure, indicating that the dynamic characteristics of the bridge pylon are well simulated by the model structure. The results of the dynamic response test show that wave induced base shear forces and motion responses on the model structure are consistent with the numerical results of the prototype structure. The model test results confirm that the proposed model test design method is feasible and applicable. It has application and reference significances for model testing studies of such marine bridge structures.

Lichens play an important role in breaking down rocks physically and chemically. Physical weathering occurs mechanically through hyphae and rhizines growing into the rocks. Lichen substances such as oxalic acid, acidic polysaccharides and depsides may assist altering rocks chemically. These actions partly contribute to soil formation but prove harmful for the substratum. Some people do not like to keep lichens on stained glassof churches or on gravestones mainly because of its unglamorous appearance. A biocide, 'Koretrel', is very effective in removing lichens and blue-green algae from the surface of concrete. After spraying 'Koretrel' in the open air, lichens (Caloplaca sp., Endocarpon petrolepideum, Physciella melanchra, Phaeophyscia hispidula, etc.) growing on buildings died within three months and peeled off fromthe substratum. One year after treatment, concrete surfaces were almost lichen free for three or four years. The biocide makesuse of a kind of lichen substance and harmless both for substances and environment. Our recent experiments show that it is also useful for water grasses growing on the surface of an aqueduct of a hydroelectric power station.

Let $P(M,G,{\pi})=:P$ be a principal fibre bundle with structure Lie group G over a base manifold M. In this paper we get the following facts: 1. The tangent bundle TG of the structure Lie group G in $P(M,G,{\pi})=:P$ is a Lie group. 2. The Lie algebra ${\mathcal{g}}=T_eG$ is a normal subgroup of the Lie group TG. 3. $TP(TM,TG,{\pi}_*)=:TP$ is a principal fibre bundle with structure Lie group TG and projection ${\pi}_*$ over base manifold TM, where ${\pi}_*$ is the differential map of the projection ${\pi}$ of P onto M. 4. for a Lie group $H,\;TH=H{\circ}T_eH=T_eH{\circ}H=TH$ and $H{\cap}T_eH=\{e\}$, but H is not a normal subgroup of the group TH in general.
