There have been active research efforts in the development of a dual-use millimeter-wave radiometer as an aircraft landing aid in low visibility conditions. In this paper, we constructed a radiometer operating at the Ka-band where it is relatively easy to build RF components. The radiometer is used to collect radiometric signatures of some vehicles and land surfaces. Measured signatures suggest that vehicles with metallic surfaces yield signatures markedly different from nearby land surfaces so that they can easily be detected by a simple radiometer.

We have conducted BVI photographic surface photometry of four spiral galaxies NGC1087, NGC2715, NGC2844 and NGC3593, by making use of the Kiso Schmidt plates. Detailed examination of the morphological properties of the galaxies using isophotal maps and luminosity profiles showed that all the program galaxies have some peculiarities in their luminosity distributions. NGC1087 and NGC2715 have extremely small nuclei with inner rings which contain several bright HII regions. NGC2844 has a very large bulge whose luminosity dominates over the disk luminosity in all the radii. The I-band luminosity profile of NGC3593 shows shallower gradient than B- and V-band profiles. We were able to successfully decompose the luminosity profile into a bulge following de Vaucouleurs $\gamma^{1/4}-law$ and an exponential disk only for NGC 3953. Other galaxies have more complicated luminosit profiles.

Purpose: Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a device that activates the sensorimotor cortex through electrodes attached to the surface of the skin. However, it is difficult to expect positive changes if the recipient is not attentive to the motion. To complement the perceived cognitive limitations of FES, we attempted to investigate the changes of sensorimotor cortex activity by simultaneously providing action observation with FES. Methods: Electroencephalogram was measured in 28 healthy volunteers. Relative band power over the sensorimotor cortex was analyzed and compared in three conditions: during rest, during FES alone, during action observation with FES. Results: The results showed significant differences in each relative band power. Relative alpha power and relative beta power were the lowest by application of FES combined with action observation, while the relative gamma power was the highest. Conclusion: These results suggest that combining FES with observation could be more effective than FES alone in neurorehabilitation.

A V-band low-noise amplifiers (LNA) based on the Millimeter-wave monolithic integrated circuit (MIMIC) technology were fabricated using high performance 0.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ $\Gamma$-shaped pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistors (PHEMT＇s), coplanar waveguide (CPW) structures and the integrated process for passive and active devices. The low-noise designs resulted in a two-stage MIMIC LNA with a high S$\sub$21/ gain of 14.9 dB and a good matching at 60 ㎓. 20 dBm of IP3 and 3.9 dB of minimum noise figure were also obtained from the LNA. The 2-stage LNA was designed in a chip size of 2.3 ${\times}$1.4 mm$^2$by using 70 $\mu\textrm{m}$ ${\times}$2 PHEMT’s. These results demonstrate that a good low-noise performance and simultaneously with a high gain performance is achievable with GaAs PHEMT's in the 60 ㎓ band.

Circularly polarized-dual band antenna for GPS(Global Positioning System) and satellite radio system is developed and measured. Both circular polarization and overall antenna dimension reduction are achieved by placing a partially filled high-permittivity substrate under radiating edges. The bandwidth is also improved by choosing an optimal geometric configuration with a partially filled high permittivity substrate. The proposed antenna can be installed on moving vehicles or ships.

The cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase(EC 3.2.1.19) from Bacillus firmus was purified by precipitating with ammonium sulfate followed by, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. In this way, we were able to obtain the single band protein on SDS-PAGE with a yield of 12%, whose purity was 49 fold. The purified CGTase was identified as a protein having molecular weight of approximately 80,000 dalton and isoelectric point of 9.6. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were 8.0 and $65^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was stable at between pH 5.5 and 9.0 and up to $50^{\circ}C$. After 24hr of enzyme reaction using soluble starch as substrate, the ratio of ${\alpha}-$, ${\beta}-$ and ${\gamma}-cyclodextrin$ production was 0.01 : 2.90 : 1.00, respectively. And this CGTase pro-duced mainly ${\beta}-$ and ${\gamma}-cyclodextrin$.

We observed that the growth and physiological change in Haliotis discus discus by low-dose irradiation with gamma ray.Irradiation with gamma ray was undertaken by using the low-level irradiation facility ($^{60}CO$) in cooperation with the Institute of Nuclear Science and Technology at Jeju National University. The parent abalones were attached one by one and then fixed by using the rubber band to the front side of the fabricated case for irradiation with gamma ray. The experimental plots of irradiation with gamma ray were set as 10, 15, 20 and 25 Gy and the 25 female abalones and 10 male abalones were utilized for each experimental plot. The sperms and eggs were fertilized by setting an interval for each dose to prevent mixing with other experimental plots when fertilizing the sperms and eggs for each dose of irradiation with gamma ray. As for the fertility, it was confirmed to be 85% the control and 10 Gy groups, whereas it was found to be 80%, 65% and 50% in the 15 Gy, 20 Gy and 25 Gy groups, respectively. As a conclusion, the hatching rate and attachment rate were higher at 10 and 15 Gy than the other experimental plots, and the growth rate was higher at 20 Gy than the other experimental plots. Also the changes in lysozyme activity in accordance with the stress of water temperature were found to have a significant increase in the other experimental plots as compared with the control plot at the end of 0 h. The changes in lysozyme activity have remained constant in all the experimental plots at the end of 12 h. These results allowed us to confirm that lysozyme was undertaking the biodefense action by reacting sensitively to the stress of water temperature in the control experimental plot. As for the other experimental plots, they are believed to avoid the biodefense mechanism due to the high degree of anti-parasite mechanism and anti-viral mechanism. Thus, it is believed that it would be imperative to conduct development and research on breeds that were potent for environmental tolerance by applying the method of irradiation with gamma ray to other marine animals and plants.

This research was conducted to investigate changes in quality characteristics of gamma-irradiated porks during storage at different temperature and periods. In The proximate composition of pork was not significantly changed by irradiation dose and storage period. The SDS electrophoresis patterns were not significantly different between nonirradiated and irradiated samples. All samples stored in at 5$^{\circ}C$ showed a prominent breakdown of molecular weights ranging from 97,000 to 116,000 Daltons after 8 weeks' storage. In heme pigment(myoglobin) content, metmyoglobin content of chicken stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ was not affected by gamma irradiation but slightly increased with the increase in storage period. All samples stored at -2$0^{\circ}C$ were not different in heme pigment content between nonirradiated and irradiated samples and slightly decreased as the freezing storage period increased. About textural property, hardness of all samples appears to be increased slightly by gamma irradiation. However, the extent of increase was so little that it could be ignored.

Cyclodextrinase from B. stearothemophilus KJ16 that can produce both cyclodextrin(CD) glucanotransferase and cyclodextrinase was purified 87.6-fold with 7% yield by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose chromatog-raphy, Sephadex G-100 chromatography, and FPLC. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was about 68,000 dalton by SDS-PAGE. The optimal pH and temperature were 6.0 and 55$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The enzyme was stable at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr in the pH range of 5.5 and 8.5. The enzyme activity was inhibited strongly by mercaptoethanol, di-thiothreitol, p-chloromercuribenzoate, N-bromosuccinimide, $Cu^{+2}$and $Hg^{+2}$. The purified enzyme hydrolyzed CDs with$\gamma$-CD>$\beta$-CD>$\alpha$-CD. The enzyme also hydrolyzed linear maltodextrins and polysaccharides, but the rates of hyd-rolysis for such substrates were slow as compared to that for $\gamma$-CD. The final degradation products with all substrates were maltose and glucose. Maltose was not further hydrolyzed.
