On protein equivalence base, fishmeal (FM) was replaced by lysine cell mass (LCM) in selected different diets in Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegeli (Hilgendorf) Eight experimental diets were formulated to contain 100% FM (LC $M_{0}$), 90% FM+10% LCM (LC $M_{10}$),80% FM+20% LCM (LC $M_{20}$), 70% FM+30% LCM (LC $M_{30}$), 60% FM+40% LCM (LC $M_{40}$ ), 70% FH+30% LCM+lysine (LC $M_{+Lys}$), 60% FM+40% LCM+lysine (LC $M_{40+Lys}$), and 50% FM+50% LCM+lysine (LC $M_{50+Lys}$). Experimental individuals of the fish (12.6 g) were randomly fed on one of the experimental diets. After 6 weeks of feeding trial, weight gain (WG) and feed efficiency (FE) of fish fed LC $M_{0}$ diet was significantly (P〈0.05) higher than those of fish fed LC $M_{20}$, LC $M_{30}$, LC $M_{40}$ , LC $M_{30+Lys}$, LC $M_{40+Lys}$, and LC $M_{50+Lys}$ diets, however, there was no significant difference in WG of fish fed LC $M_{0}$ and LC $M_{10}$ diets. Supplementation of lysine has no effect on WG. There was no significant difference in condition factor (CF) of fish fed LC $M_{0}$, LC $M_{10}$ and LC $M_{20}$ diets. Hemoglobin (Hb) of fish fed LC $M_{0}$, LC $M_{10}$, LC $M_{20}$, LC $M_{30}$, LC $M_{40}$ , LC $M_{30+Lys}$, and LC $M_{40+Lys}$, diets were not significantly different from each other. No significant differences were observed in hematocrit (PCV) and hepatosomatic index (HSI) among all dietary treatments. Apparent digestibility of dry matter (ADM) and protein (ADP) of diets significantly decreased with increase in dietary LCM level, though there was no difference in ADM and ADP between LC $M_{0}$ and LC $M_{10}$. These results indicate that LCM could replace up to 10% of fishmeal in Korean rockfish diets.ish diets.iets.ish diets.s.ish diets.

This study was conducted to define the effect of addition of lysolecithin (LC) and 20% v/v rabbit serum to sperm preincubation medium on the induction of acrosome reaction (AR) an fertilizing ability in vitro of LG-added sperm. Ejaculated rabbit sperm from New Zealand White buck was washed once by centrifugation, then preincubated for 2 or 4 hrs in a chemically defined medium (DM), DM plus 20% rabbit serum or BSA-free DM plus 20% rabbit serum at 37$^{\circ}C$ water bath or CO2 incubator. At the end of preincubation LC was added to the preincubated sperm, which was stained at 0.5 to 4 hr later and examined for AR and sperm motility. For in vitro fertilization, gametes were coincubated in DM up to 24 hrs and thereafter fertilized embryos were incubated in BSM -II up to 48 hrs. Addition of LC to 4-hr preincubated sperm was more effective for the AR and sperm motility than that to 2-hr preincubated sperm and optimal concentration of LC for AR was about 80${\mu}$g/ml. A significant increase in AR occured from 20 to 30 min. after addition of 80 to 100${\mu}$g/ml in 4-hr preincubated sperm. BSA-free DM plus 20% rabbit serum showed a higher AR and sperm motility than those of DM plus 20% rabbit serum in LC-added sperm after 4-hr preincubation. The incidence of AR after 4-hr preincubation and at 30 min after 60${\mu}$g/ml LC addition varied greatly among individual bucks. Sixty ${\mu}$g/ml LC-added sperm showed a slight high cleavage rate over control levels, but 100${\mu}$g/ml LC-added sperm showed lower cleavage rate rather than 60${\mu}$g/ml LC. It is concluded that optimal concentration of LC for high AR induction and sperm motility in 4-hr preincubated sperm was about 80${\mu}$g/ml, but 60${\mu}$g/ml level was more useful for in vitro fertilization.

We have previously reported that the vasodilatory effect of BanhabackchuIChunma-tang(半夏白朮天麻湯; BCT), a herbal formula, and its mechanism might be associated with at least in part NO pathway. In the present study, we studied the influence of BanhabackchulChenuma-tang (BCT) on the phosphorylation of LC20, in parallel, the distribution of α-protein kinase C(PKCα) by phenylephrine was monitored using laser scan confocal immunofluorescent microscopy in freshly isolated ferret portal vein smooth muscle living single cells. Phenylephrine stimulation induced LC20 phosphorylation and translocation of PKCα. However, BCT dephosphorylated LC20 phosphorylation and inhibited the translocation of PKCα. Our results demonstrate that the mechanism of relaxant effect of BanhabackchulChunma-tang inhibition is associated with inhibition of PKCα activation and LC20 phosphorylation.

The primary mechanism of smooth muscle contraction is phosphorylation of the 20 kDa myosin light chains(LC20) by a myosin light chain kinase(MLCK). Relaxation, then, is generally the result of dephosphorylation of LC20 by myosin phosphatase(MP). Changes in MP activity is one of the important mechanisms in the regulation of Ca2+-sensitivity. Inhibition of MP activity is linked to an increase in phosphorylated myosin light chain(MLC) without an increase in [Ca/sup 2+/]i-levels. It is now generally accepted that Rho-kinase phosphorylates 130 kDa regulatory and myosin binding subunits(M130, MYPT) of MP, which results in an inhibition of MP activity. In addition Rho-kinase can also directly phosphorylate MLC. In the present study, LC20 phosphorylation and MP subunits translocation to the cell membrane were investigated in freshly isolated ferret portal vein smooth muscle single cells treated with PGF2α. We also examined the effect of Y27632(10-5mol/L), Rho-kinase inhibitor, in the MP subunits localization to compare with butanol fraction of Fructus Crataegi in its effect. Butanol fraction of Fructus Crataegi(BFFC; 1㎎/㎖) was more effective in PGF2α induced contraction than those of phenylephrine in its vasodilation effect. It significantly(P<0.05) dephosphorylated the LC20 at time indicated. In addition, the dissociation of subunits are inhibited by BFCF treatment. The results indicate that, in the smooth muscle cells, the relaxation effect of BFFC is associated with increase of MP activity based on inhibition of dissociation of the catalytic and targeting subunits of the phosphatase, and thus decrease the sensitivity of LC20 phosphorylation for Ca/sup 2+/.

A new analytical method has been developed to determine 320 pesticides in apple and rice. The extraction of pesticides was carried out based on QuEChERS sample extraction, and determination was performed using LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS. 320 pesticides were selected for experiments. 251 and 110 pesticides among them were analysed by LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS, respectively. 41 pesticides of them were analyzed by both GC-MS/MS and LC-MS/MS. Among pesticides analysed by LC, 242 pesticides (96% of total number) in apple and 237 pesticides (94% of total number) in rice showed recoveries in the range of 70~120% with RSD ${\leq}20%$. In case of pesticides analyzed by GC-MS/MS, 103 pesticides (94% of total number) in apple and 83 pesticides (76% of total number) in rice were successfully validated. These results indicated that LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS analysis with the QuEChERS sample preparation can be partly applied to multi-residue pesticides in agricultural products.

Twenty-three fabrics of varying thicknesses and weights were subjected to the maximum pressures of 10, 20, 35, 50 and 70 $gf/cm^2$ to yield pressure-thickness curves. Compression property values were plotted according to the amount of pressure applied to the samples. Pressure increases resulted in decreases in LC (compressional curve linearity), increases in WC (compressional energy) and no change in RC (compressional resilience). The best-fit lines are found separately according to pressures. The thickest fabrics exhibited the highest LC and WC values. The slopes varied different according to the pressure applied, with a pressure 50 $gf/cm^2$ exhibiting the steepest slope at We. The pressure of 20 $gf/cm^2$ correlated most closely with the hand-evaluation test results, yielding Spearmans correlation coefficients of .86 and .82 respectively for the LC and WC.

Positive ion mass spectra of some corticosteroids were obtained by using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS). The base peak of each compound showed the protonated molecular ion [$MH^+$], ammonium adduct ion [${MNH_4}^+$] or [$MH^+-60$] ion according to its chemical structure and other characteristic mass ions were [$MH^+-18$], [${MNH_4}^+-18$] and so on. Several rat urinary metabolites of methylprednisolone acetate after the oral administration were detected by the thermospray LC-MS. The identified major metabolites were 20-hydroxymethylprednisolone(20-HMP), methylprednisolone(MP) and methylprednisone(11-KMP), which were supposed to be formed by deacetylation at the position of C-21, reduction at C-20, oxidation at C-11, or due to the bond cleavage between C-17 and C-20.

A novel control method of a three-phase PWM inverter with LC filter is proposed. The transfer function of LC filter is the same as that of second-order low pass filter(LPF), which has a zero damping ratio. A simple method of implementing second-order LPF with damping ratio is to add a resistor in an LC circuit. However, in a real power system, adopting damping resistors is impractical because it results in losses proportional to the square of the current flowing through the resistors. Instead of inserting resistors, the proposed control strategy utilizes the measured capacitor voltages to control the oscillation of LC circuit. The overall transfer function of the proposed method is the same as a second-order LPF, and its damping ratio is controllable via control variables. The current controller can have overshoots caused by LC filter. Improved current controller is implemented by an equivalent second-order of LC filter. A 7.5 kVA PWM converter and a PWM inverter with a 5.5 kW induction motor are set up to verify the proposed control algorithm. Test waveforms are also presented to verify the proposed LC filter control algorithm.

The comparative analysis of glycerin in cosmetic samples was carried out by LC/MS and $^1H$ NMR spectrometry. For the LC/MS analysis, aqueous solution was controlled in strong basic condition with sodium hydroxide, and benzoyl chloride was added to the solution for the derivatization of glycerin. The derivative was extracted using pentane and analyzed by the LC/MS. For the $^1H$ NMR analysis, sample was directly dissolved in $D_2O$ solvent without pretreatment. The quantitative analysis of glycerin was done by $^1H$ NMR ERETIC method. The analysis results of LC/MS and $^1H$ NMR showed that the calibration curves were a good linearity with $r^2=0.9991$ in the range of 0.1 to $10{\mu}g/mL$ and $r^2=1$ in the range of 25 to $500{\mu}g/mL$, respectively.
