This investigation was performed to study the antioxidant activities of Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts and the effect of Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts on glucose, lipid metabolism in diabetic rats. DPPH free radical scavanging activity and superoxide anion radical scavenging of Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts were 94.7% and 92.1%, respectively. Streptozotocin (45 mg/kg body weight, i.p.) induced diabetic rats showed a significant increases of plasma glucose, triglyceride and total cholesterol, concomitantly significant decrease of plasma high density lipoprotein. Glutathione level were decrease in cytosol of liver, lung and brain tissue of rats. Lipid peroxide were increase in microsome of liver cells. Group 1 and 2 were treated with Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts 200 mg/kg body weight and 100 mg/kg body weight for 24 days, individually. Group 1 and 2 rats showed decreased plasma glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol and lipid peroxide in microsome of liver, and increased plasma high density lipoprotein and glutathione in cytosol of liver, lung and brain. The result suggest that Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts may normalize the Impaired antioxiants status in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Cornus officinalis Sieb extracts were used to improve the imbalance between free radicals and antioxidant system due to the diabetes.

This study evaluates the effect of Dioscorea japonica Thunb subfractions on hyperglycemia and the composition of energy metabolites in diabetic rats. Diabetes emllitus was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by an injection of streptozotocin(STZ) dissolved in a citrate buffer into the tail vein at a dose of 45㎎/㎏ of body weight. Diabetic rats were assigned to 6 groups; STZ-control, subfraction A, B , C, D and E groups. All groups were fed an AIN-76 diet. The second butanol fraction of Dioscorea administered orally with carboxymethyl cellucose for 10 days after the STZ injection Body weight gain, diet intake and organ weights were monitored Levels of hematocrit, blood glucose, liver and muscle glycogen were measured. Levels of cholesterol, triglycerides and free fatty acids were also assayed. Body weight losses were observed by subfraction A group. Liver and kidney weights were not affected in any of the subgractioned groups. The decrease of blood glucose in daibetic rats which were fed Dioscorea japonica Thunb was significantly greater than the dicrease of blood glucose in the STZ-control group. cholesterol plasma level was not influenced in any subfraction of Dioscorea japonica Thunb. Liver triglyceride levels were significantly lowered in subfraction A compared with the STZ-control group. This study's results suggest that oral administration of subfraction C of Dioscorea japonica Thunb frction is capabl of reducing blood glucose, plasma triglyceride and free fatty acid levels, and therefore Dioscorea japonica Thunb may contain antihyperglycemic compounds.

The method of matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry has been used to solve some bioanalytical problems, which is difficult to analyse by general methods. For the selection of proper laser wavelength and matrices, eight matriees was used with laser wavelength of 226 and 355nm. The result shows that with wavelength of 355nm better results could be obtained with most of the matrices. The molecular weight of eytochrome C, which was seperated by gel electrophoresis and electro-blotted onto NC membrane is determined by MALDI. The accuracy is better than 0.1%, which is much higher than that of SDS-PAGE. Protein mixture extracted from crude peanut oil is directly determined by MALDI. The molecuiar weight of its three components are determined, and the result also demonstrated that these proteins are in free manner. As proteins arc in 2S bond, with the traditional method, SDS-PAGE, it is not able to decide whether protein exists in combination mode or in free manner. In the technique of two phase aquesous solution, which is used for separating biomaterials, water soluble polymers stained with dyes are used in this technique. By the use of MALDI the number or the dye molecules react with the polymer PEG molecule are determined, and that is difficult to determined by other methods.

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ${\alpha}$ ($PPAR{\alpha}$) is a nuclear transcription factor that plays a central role in lipid and lipoprotein metabolism. To investigate whether swim training improves obesity and lipid metabolism through $PPAR{\alpha}$ activation in female sham-operated (Sham) and ovariectomized (OVX) mice, we measured body weight, visceral adipose tissue mass, serum free fatty acid at 6 weeks as well as the expression of hepatic $PPAR{\alpha}$ target genes involved in fatty acid oxidation. Swim-trained mice had decreased body weight, visceral adipose tissue mass and serum free fatty acid levels compared to high fat diet fed control mice in both female Sham and OVX mice. These reductions were more prominent in OVX than in Sham mice. Swim training significantly increased hepatic mRNA levels of $PPAR{\alpha}$ target genes responsible for mitochondrial fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation, such as carnitine palmitoyltransgerase-1 (CPT-1), very long chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (VLCAD), and medium chain acyl-CoA dehydrogenase (MCAD) in OVX mice. However, swim trained female Sham mice did not increase hepatic mRNA levels of $PPAR{\alpha}$ target genes responsible for mitochondrial fatty acid ${\beta}$-oxidation compared to Sham control mice. These results indicate that swim training differentially regulates body weight and adipose tissue mass between OVX and Sham mice, at least in part due to differences in liver $PPAR{\alpha}$ activation.

The usable output of glassware formation production line depends, among other factors, on the weight and shape of a lump of hot molten glass called a gob. In this paper, an automated image processing system for monitoring gob weight and shape on a production line is proposed. Present techniques often rely on manual weighing of gobs on a sample basis by manually controlling the gob feeder. The proposed automated image monitoring system checks the weight and shape of every free-falling gob before it reaches the mould. In this system, the estimated weight of the gob is sufficiently close to its actual weight.

The purposes of this study were to describe and compare pint moments according to 6 types of gait methods during free speed. 15 volunteers(7 male, 8 female: mean age = 23.33 yrs.) participated and performed 6 types of gait methods. From the 3 types of pint moments of lower extremities(hip, knee, ankle and foot), the following results were made: 1. In left hip pint, the flexion-extension moment was not significantly different, but the adduction-abduction moment and rotation moment were showed different curves during stance phase. 2. In left knee pint, the flexion-extension moment was not significantly different, but the varus-valgus moment and rotation moment were showed different curves during stance phase. 3. In left ankle and foot the dorsiflexion-plantarflexion moment was not significantly different but the varus-valgus moment and rotation moment were showed different curves during stance phase. In conclusion, because weight loading gait with 10-20% of body weight were normal gait patterns, It was inferred that all weight loading gaits did not indicate noxious reactions of human body.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the change of silicon, cations and anions dissolved in water before and after thawing, and analyzed what the white-colored precipitate (WP) farmed after thawing was composed of. The silicon concentration that has been changed might have been compared with the weight of WP under water-free state. The major component of WP has been approved to be a silicon, while calsium was only a little contained. As the weight of WP has been nearly equal to the reduced silicon concentration, the weight of its could be changeable calculated by silica (SiO$_2$) molecular weight. Therefore, WP could have been presumed to be a silica. The more silicon concentration was increased, the more weight of silicon was increased. Except for the sample "C", the amounts of cations and anions could be found to be unchangeable nearly. As a result of that, WP has been apparent to be silica itself while most of ions (excluded with Si) of any others were not changed.
