To investigate the possibility of crypreservation of mulberry seeds in liquid nitrogen(LN$_2$), characteristics of the seeds were examined after picking mulberry syncarps and drying-heat treatment. Storage in LN$_2$has the potential of providing indifinite preservation of valuable seed germplasm. Determining the tolerance of seeds among given cultivars to LN$_2$cooling and subsequent rewarming is the first step to establishing the feasibility of LN$_2$storage. Seeds of 4 mulberry varities were treated to LN$_2$(-196$\^{C}$) for 24 hours after drying heat treatment. Seed moisture content of Daeryukppong was the highest. As moisture content of mulberry seed was below 1%, storage in LN$_2$was safe. And drying heat treatment for 60 minutes was suitable to prevent decreased germination rate and germination vigor of seeds. The seeds of Cheongilppong were unsuibable to cryopreserve in LN$_2$for longterm storage.

The interactions between Ln(dpm)3 [Ln3+=Eu3+, Yb3+, Pr3+, Sm3+, Tb3+and Ho3+; dpm=tris 2,2,6,6-tetramethylheptane-3,5-dionate] and acetamide in CCl4 solution were investigated using near IR absorption spectroscopy. From the measured 2 νC=O+ amide Ⅲ combination band of acetamide in the region of 2130-2180 nm(4695-4587 cm-1), it was found that acetamide is coordinating through its carbonyl oxygen atom to Ln(dpm)3[C=O…Ln(dpm)3)] and forms only 1 : 1 stoichiometric Ln(dpm)3- acetamide complex. The ΔHo values for the formation of Ln(dpm)3-acetamide obtained from the temperature studies are -39.1, -28.4, -25.5, -24.7, -21.1 and -17.7 kJ mol-1 for Eu(dpm)3, Yb(dpm)3, Pr(dpm)3, Sm(dpm)3, Tb(dpm)3 and Ho(dpm)3, respectively, which are larger than those of the hydrogen bond between amide and various hydrogen acceptors. Except Eu(dpm)3 and Yb(dpm)3, -ΔHovalue increases as the ionic size increases.

Purpose: To evaluate whether or not sodium restriction had its own beneficial effect and increased the efficiency of the anti-hypertensive drugs on the progression of renal failure. Methods: We studied using the excision remnant kidney model. Treatment groups were as follows: 5/6 nephrectomy and a 0.49% (normal-high) sodium diet (NN); 5/6 nephrectomy and a 0.25% (normal-low) sodium diet (LN); 5/6 nephrectomy, a 0.49% sodium diet and enalapril (NNE); 5/6 nephrectomy, a 0.49% sodium diet and nicardipine (NNN); 5/6 nephrectomy, a 0.25% sodium diet and enalapril (LNE); 5/6 nephrectomy, a 0.25% sodium diet and nicardipine (LNN). Both diets were isocaloric and had the same content of protein, phosphorus and calcium. Proteinuria, remnant kidney weight, mesangial expansion scores, and glomerular volume were assessed. Results: Blood pressure tended to be lower in LN compared to NN (P<0.05). NN developed progressive hypertension. LNE, LU, NNE, and NNN reduced blood pressure. LNE, LNN, NNE, NNN, and LN had significantly less proteinuria than NN at 16 weeks (P<0.05). At 24 weeks, LN developed proteinuria (82 mg/day), which were lessened in LNE (54 mg/day) and not lessened in LNN (76 mg/day). Mesangial expansion scores were significantly less in LN rats compared to those in NN rats. Glomerular volumes at 24 weeks in LN rats were significantly less compared to those at 16 weeks in NN rats. Mesangial expansion scores and glomerular volumes at 4, weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks were not different among LN, LNE, and LNN groups. Conclusion: Dietary salt restriction lessens renal damage, at least in part, by inhibiting compensatory renal growth and reducing blood pressure. Enalapril was particularly successful in reducing proteinuria and glomerular injury when combined with dietary salt restriction.

Contact-only (COM) and dipolar-only (DOM) mixtures of the lanthanide shift reagents were prepared based on the Fi and Gi values deduced using individual Ln$(fod)_3$ (Ln = Pr, Nd, Eu, and Yb) and 4-picoline. The $F_i$ and $G_i$ values obtained directly by COM 1 and by DOM 1, which were appropriate mixture of Pr$(fod)_3$ and Eu$(fod)_3$, agreed well with those values obtained by experiments using individual Ln$(fod)_3$ shift reagents. Ei and Gi values obtained directly by COM 2 and by DOM 2, which were mixtures of Nd$(fod)_3$ and Yb$(fod)_3$, deviated from the expected values. The error was traced to the behavior of the ytterbium complexes.

Objectives : This study was accomplished to investigate the effects of acupuncture at Jeonjung($CV_{17}$) on the heart rate variability(HRV) in healthy adults. And based on that, we tried to find out how acupuncture at Jeonjung($CV_{17}$) effects on the activity and balance of the autonomic nervous system. Methods : We investigated on 74 healthy volunteers consisted of 24 subjects in acupuncture group, 24 subjects in sham acupuncture group and 24 subjects in control group. On the other hand, two volunteers were ruled out by standard of elimination. The study was established by randomized trial. Acupuncture was applied at Jeonjung($CV_{17}$) during 10 minutes in acupuncture group and minimal acupuncture was applied at the same area in sham acupuncture group. No treatment was executed in control group. We measured HRV 3 times : baseline measurement and after treatment in acupuncture group and sham acupuncture group (after rest in control group) twise. The SPSS 15.0 for Windows was used to analyze the data by paired t-test, Wilcoxon signed ranks test (in group) and One-Way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis test (between the groups). Results: 1. In acupuncture group, Mean HRT, PSI, Normalized HF decreased significantly. SDNN, Ln (TP), Ln (LF), Ln (VLF), Normalized LF and LF/HF ratio increased significantly. RMSSD, Ln(HF) were not affected. 2. In sham acupuncture group, all indicators were not affected. 3. In control group, mean HRT, Ln(TP) decreased significantly. SDNN, RMSSD, PSI, Ln(LF), Ln(HF), Ln(VLF), normalized LF, normalized HF and LF/HF ratio were not affected. Conclusions : We suggest that acupuncture at Jeonjung($CV_{17}$) increases the activity of autonomic nervous system and makes effects on the balance of the autonomic nervous system.

Kachanov-Rabotnov(K-R) creep damage theory was reviewed, and applied to design a creep curve for type 316LN stainless steel. Seven coefficients used in the theory, i.e., A, B, k, m, λ, r, and q were determined, and their physical meanings were analyzed clearly. In order to quantify a damage parameter ($\omega$), cavity amount was measured in the crept specimen taken from interrupted creep test with time variation, and then the amount was reflected into K-R damage equations. Coefficient λ, which is regarded as a creep tolerance feature of a material, increased with creep strain. Mater curve with λ=2.8 was well coincided with an experimental one to the full lifetime. The relationship between damage parameter and life fraction was matched with the theory at exponent ${\gamma}$=24 value. It is concluded that K-R damage equation was reliable as the modelling equation for type 316LN stainless steel. Coefficient data obtained from type 316LN stainless steel can be utilized for life prediction of operating material.

Lipozyme TL IM-catalyzed esterification was carried out to produce functional hard fat (structured lipid, SL) using palm stearin (PS) and hydrolysate of pomegranate seed oil (HPSO) of 1:6 molar ratio. HPSO contained conjugated linolenic acid (CLnA, about 80%). The reaction was performed at non-solvent system and solvent (n-hexane) system using Lipozyme TL IM (10% of total substrates, w/w) for 12, 24, and 72 hr in a shaking water bath ($55^{\circ}C$ and 185 rpm), respectively. SL synthesized in non-solvent system (NH-SL) and SL synthesized in n-hexane system (H-SL) were refined after deacidification, respectively. Their physicochemical properties were compared to obtain desirable functional hard fat. The content of CLnA in NH-SL increased from 34.38% to 40.63% with increasing reaction time. Similar results also observed in H-SL resulting in 36.81~45.83% of CLnA. In triacylglycerol (TAG) composition, the main molecules of LnLnLn (Ln=linolenic acid, PN=36) and the LnLnP (P=palmitic acid, PN=40) were newly synthesized in NH-SL and H-SL with increasing reaction time. After 72 hr reaction, iodine values of NH-SL (136.49) and H-SL (140.37) showed high values because of the high content of CLnA. Solid fat index (SFI) in NH-SL was higher than that in H-SL at each measured temperature. The predominant polymorphic forms of NH-SL and H-SL obtained after esterification for 72 hr were the desirable crystalline structure of the ${\beta}$' form.

The superconducting properties of high temperature superconducting (HTS) GdBCO coated conductor (CC) tape (Ag/GdBCO/Buffer-layers/Stainless Steel) were investigated, specifically a series of samples prepared by vacuum heat treatment (200℃ to 600℃), using a Quantum Design PPMS-14. The critical current density J_c value was obtained by applying the modified Bean model to the irreversible magnetization ∆M_irr(H) data which was estimated from the magnetization M(H) loop. The reduction rates of lnJ_c and T_c values according to the increase of the vacuum annealing temperature T_an were d(lnJ_c)/dT_an = - 0.016 A/(cm²∙℃) and dT_c/dT_an = - 0.24, respectively. We examined the effect of recovery temperature T_re (475℃ to 700℃) and recovery duration time t (0.5 h to 24 h) on the restoration of previously completely lost superconductivity in samples that subsequently received heat treatment in an O₂ gas flow space. All samples were fully restored to superconductivity by heat treatment in an O₂ gas flow space. The recovery temperatures T_re (475℃ to 700℃) and recovery duration times t (0.5 h to 24 h) were both independent of the superconductivity recovery characteristics.
