The establishment of an efficient protocol for plant regeneration and micropropagation from leaf explant cultures of Chicory, Cichorium intybus L. var. sativus. is reported. Callus formation rate appeared 100% from explant in all growth regulators, but calli formed in the prensence of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) were appeared very compact and non-embryogenic state. The regenerated shoots were obtained from leaf explant cultures on solid MS medium containing different concentrations of cytokinins and auxin. The highest number of shoots (5.7) per explant and shoot growth (2.8cm) was obtained on MS medium containing 0.1 mg BAP L^-1 and 0.1 mg NAA L^-1. Indole acetic acid was the most suitable auxin for root formation among three auxins tested. 2,4-D had no effect on shoot and root formation.

Root chicory (Cichorium intybus L. var. sativus) is potential alternative medicinal and sugar crop which accumulates a high amount of linear polyfructan, inulin in its roots. A problem in root production is that over-wintered stock plants often flower. Once the plant becomes reproductive, stem elongation and root growth slows and floral buds arise from every node, rendering the plants useless for propagation. The objectives of this research was to examine the effectiveness of manipulating environmental factors containing photoperiod, temperature and number of leaf states. The experiment was performed in growth chamber to create two photoperiods (8 h, and 16 h) with three temperature regimes (5℃/3℃, 10℃/8℃, and 15℃/13℃ day/night temperature) for a total of six treatments on three type of true-leaf stage of plant. Data of bolting rate, shoot and root length, shoot and fresh weight was invetigated in each treatments. This is the first report on changes in bolting rate and shoots and roots production during a whole growing season and differences in the effect of cold and photoperiod treatment depending on the true-leaf stage of plant.

본 연구의 목적은 d-arphetamine이 흰쥐의 적출부신 관류모델에서 니코틴 수용체 흥분에 의한 카테콜아민(CA) 유리작용에 미치는 영향을 검색하여 그 작용기전을 규명하고자 하였다. D-amphetamine은 흰쥐 부신정맥내로 60분간 관류시 d-amphetamine자체는 약한 CA 분비작용을 나타내었으나, d-amphetamine (30 μM)을 비롯한 강력한 neuronal nicotine 수용체 작용제인 cytisine (50 μM) 및 epibatidine (30 μM)에 의한 CA 유리작용을 처음 4-10분 동안만 유의하게 증강시켰다. 또한, d-amphetamine (30 μM)은 60분간 부신정맥 내로 관류한 상태에서 dihydropyridine L-형 칼슘통로 개방약물인 Bay-K-8644 (10 μM)과 세포질내 칼슘저장고에서 Ca^(2+) ATPase 억제제인 cyclopiazonic acid (10 μM)의 CA 유리작용을 처음 4분간만 유의하게 증강시켰다. 그러나, 고농도의 d-amphetamine (500 μM)은 상기한 모든 분비촉진제의 CA분비작용을 오히려 억제하였다. 이와 같은 연구결과로 보면, 흰쥐 관류 부신수질에서 d-amphetamine은 낮은 농도에서는 콜린성 니코틴 수용체 흥분에 의한 카테콜아민 분비반응을 증강시키지만, 고농도에서는 오히려 억제적으로 작용함을 시사한다. 따라서, d-amphetamine은 용량에 따라서 흰쥐 적출 관류부신수질의 니코틴 수용체의 작용제 및 길항제로 이중 작용(dual action)을 나타내는 것으로 생각된다. 이러한 d-amphetamine의 작용은 흰쥐 부신수질 크롬친화세포의 dihydropyridine계 L-형 칼슘통로의 활성화 및 세포 내 칼슘저장고로부터 칼슘유리작용과 관련성이 있는 것으로 사료된다. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of d-amphetamine on CA release evoked by nocotinic receptor stimulation from the isolated perfused model of the rat adrenal gland, and to establish its mechanism of action. D-amphetamine(30 μM), when perfused into an adrenal vein of the rat adrenal gland for 60 min, enhanced the CA secretory responses evoked by ACh (5.32 mM), nicotine (30 μM), cytisine (50 μM, a selective neuronal nicotinic Nn-receptor agonist) and epibatidine (30 nM, a selective neuronal nicotinic Nn receptor agonist) only for the first period (4~10 min), although it alone has weak effect on CA secretion. Moreover, d-amphetamine (30 μM) in to an adrenal vein for 60 min also augmented the CA release evoked by BAY-K-8644, an activator of the dihydropyridine L-type Ca^(2+) channels, and cyclopiazonic acid, an inhibitor of cytoplasmic Ca^(2+) ATPase only for the first peroid (4 min). However, in the presence rather inhibited the CA secretory responses evoked by the above all of secretagogues. Taken together, these experimental results suggest that d-amphetamine at a low concentration enhances the CA secretion from the rat adrenal medulla evoked by stimulation of cholinergic nicotininc receptors, but at a high concentration it rather inhibits them. It semms that d-amphetamine has dual action acting as both agonist and antagonist at nicotinic receptors of the isolated perfused rat adrenal medulla, which are might be dependent on the concentration. It is also thought that these actions of d-amphetamine are probably relevant to the activation of the dihydropyridine L-type Ca^(2+) channels located on the rat adrenomedullary chromaffin cell membrane and release of Ca^(2+) from the cytoplasmic store.

Purposes: This study was performed to evaluate the possibility of impairment of renal tubular function by exposure to inorganic arsenic of low concentration. Materials and methods: Study subjects were 867 individuals (365 men and 502 women) who resided around abandoned mine areas in Chungbuk Province, Republic of Korea. Information about the life style, drinking water type, seafood intake, and mine working history was gathered, and urinary arsenic concentration and N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase (NAG) activity were measured. The correlation between arsenic concentration and urinary NAG activity was tested in groups classified according to urinary NAG activity and seafood consumption prior to urine sampling. Results: No statistically significant difference in urinary arsenic concentrations was observed between different gender and age groups. The participants those who ate seafood within three days before the urinary sample showed a higher mean urinary arsenic concentration than those who did not. In a correlation analysis between natural logarithm of urinary arsenic concentrations and that of urinary NAG activities, no statistical significance was found in a total sample as well as within a gender group. In a group with the urinary arsenic concentrations higher than the geometric mean and the urinary NAG activities higher the geometric mean, the correlation coefficient between two variables was 0.182 and significant. (p-value<0.05) Conclusions: It is suggested that renal tubular damage could be induced by non-occupational exposure to low level inorganic arsenic. 연구목적 : 본 연구는 폐금속광산 주변지역 주민들을 대상으로, 저농도 비소노출에 의하여 신세뇨관 기능이상이 유발될 수 있는지를 평가하는 것을 목적으로 시행하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 충청북도에 소재하고 있는 폐금속광산의 주변에 거주하는 주민 867명을 대상으로 직접 면접조사를 실시하였다. 대상자의 소변을 채취하여 요중 비소농도와 요중 N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (NAG) 활성을 측정하였고, 조사대상자를 역학적 변수에 따라 구분하여 두 변수 사이의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 결과 : 소변시료를 채취하기전 3일 이내에 해산물을 섭취한 사람들의 요중 비소농도는 그 기간동안 해산물을 섭취하지 않은 사람들의 농도에 비하여 유의하게 높았다. 조사 대상자들의 요중 NAG 농도의 평균값은 남녀차이가 없었으나, 65세 미만 대상자와, 표본을 채취하기 전 3일 이내에 해산물을 섭취한 사람들의 요중 NAG 활성도의 평균값은 그렇지 않은 사람들에 비하여 유의하게 낮았다. 요중 비소농도가 기하평균 이상이고, 요중 NAG 활성이 기하평균 이상인 군에서 두 변수의 상관관계가 0.182 로 유의하였다. 결론 : 정상범위의 비소 노출이라도 요중 비소농도가 8.28 μg/g creatinine을 초과하는 경우에는 미세한 신장손상을 유발할 가능성이 있으며, 해산물을 섭취함으로써 체내에 흡수되는 비소는 이러한 신독성이 거의 없다.

목적 : 급성하벽심근경색증 환자에서 심전도상 흔히 동반되는 전흉부유도 ST절 하강의 의의를 알아보았다. 방법 : 심근경색후 24시간에서 48시간에 얻은 심전도를 기준으로 52명의 급성하벽심근경색증 환자를 전흉부유도에서 ST절의 하강이 있는 군과 없는 군으로 나누었으며 심도자, 관상동맥조영술, 심초음파도 및 방사성 핵종을 이용한 좌심구혈율 측정 등을 시행하였다. 결과 : 1) 좌심실확장기말압은 전흉부유도에서 ST절의 하강이 있는 경우에서 16.9±5.33mmHg로 없는 경우의 11.0±4.02mmHg보다 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 그러나 운동량 및 좌심구혈을은 흥부 유도상 ST절의 하강이 있는 경우 7.6±3.0 METs 및 53.9±9.1%로 없는 경우의 9.1±2.7 METs 및 54.6±9.5%보다 낮았으나 통계적 유의성은 없었다(p=0.180, p=0.823). 2) 관상동맥조영술상 전흉부 ST절의 하강이 동반된 군에서는 유의한 좌전하행지나 좌회선지의 협착이 있는 경우가 60.9% 및 57.9%로 ST절의 하강이 없는 군에서의 34.5% 및 7.7%와 비교해 좌관상동맥에 협착이 동반된 경우가 많았다(p=0.050, p=0.001). 3) 관상동맥조영술상 세 혈관질환의 빈도는 흉부유도상 ST절의 하강을 보인 23예에서 10예로 ST절 하강이 없었던 29예중 2예에 비하여 유의하게 많았고(P=0.007), 단 혈관질환의 빈도는 ST절의 하강을 보인 군에서 23예중 5예로 ST절 하강이 없었던 29예중 17예에 비하여 유의하게 적었다(P=0.002). 두 혈관질환의 경우에는 각각 8예와 10예로 양군간에 유의한 차이가 없었다. 4) 흉부유도상 ST절 하강의 빈도는 단 혈관질환 22예 중 5예에서, 두 혈관질환 18예중 8예, 세 혈관질환 12예 중 10예에서 관찰되어 협착이 있는 관상동맥의 수가 많을수록 ST절의 하강이 나타나는 빈도가 많음을 보였다(p=0.00308). 그러나 흉부유도상 나타난 ST절의 하강을 모두 합하여 구한 ST절 하강의 합은 협착이 있는 관상동맥의 수와 통계적인 유의성이 없었다. 5) 심초음파도상 좌심실 하벽의 벽운동은 ST절 하강을 보인 군에서는 akinesia가 83.3%, hypokinesia가 11.1%, 정상 벽운동이 5.6%로, ST절 하강이 없었던 군에서의 dyskinesia가 3.6%, akinesia가 39.3%, hypokinesia가 25.0%, 정상 벽운동이 32.1%와 비교하여 ST절의 하강이 있는 군에서 유의하게 벽운동의 장애가 빈번함을 보였다(p=0.03891). 그러나 좌심실전벽, 측벽 및 중격부위에서는 유의한 벽운동의 차이가 없었다. 결론 : 급성하벽심근경색증 환자의 전흉부유도에서 ST절의 하강이 동반되는 경우 다혈관 질환의 가능성이 높으며 좌심실확장기말압이 상승되었고 운동능력은 감소되어 있었다. 또한 심초음파도상 좌심실하벽의 벽운동장애도 심하였다. 따라서 전흉부 ST절의 하강을 동반한 급성하벽심근경색증 환자는 전흉부유도에 ST절 하강이 없는 경우보다 예후가 불량할 것으로 생각되며, 보다 적극적인 치료가 필요할 것으로 생각된다. The purpose of this study was to determine the significance of precordial ST segment depression appearing during acute inferior myocardial infarction and to assess the correlation of that with angiographic finding. 52 patients were allocated into two groups based on the existence of precordial ST segment depression : 23 patients with ST segment depression and 29 patients without ST segment depression. The extent of coronary artery disease as well as the prevalence of significant stenosis (≥70%) in left anterior descending artery were more frequent in patients showing precordial ST segment depression than in patients not showing them (p=0.050) and the result were similar in cases of left circumplex artery (p=0.001). On echocrdiographic examination of left ventricular (LV) wall motion, it showed more severely decreased inferior LV wall motion in patients showing precordial ST segment depression than in patients not showing them (p=0.03891) even though the other segment of LV wall motion didn't show the statistical difference between both groups. The other cardiac parameters such as LVEDP, exercise amount (METs) and ejection fraction were tend to showing bad profile in patients with precordial ST segment depression. From the above results, we could deduce that patients with precordial ST segment depression have relatively large infarction or concomitant left coronary artery disease, so they need more caution and intensive theraphy.

Corrosion of dental alloys in the oral cavity can affect the mechanical, esthetic properties and efficiency of metallic restorations, and has great influence upon the local and systemic health of patients. The purpose of this study was to clarify the corrosion behavior of various dental alloys, and to measure the galvanic currents between dissimilar alloys. Fifty-eight kinds of dental casting alloys such as twenty-nine high gold alloys, ten low gold alloys, fourteen silver-palladium alloys, five base metal alloys, and twenty kinds of ceramic alloys such as seventeen noble metal alloys, three base metal alloys, were used as the experimental alloys. Modified Fusayama's artificial saliva titrated to pH 6.7 with phosphoric acid was used as an electrolyte. The specimens were immersed in the modified artificial saliva of 37℃. The rest potentials, anodic polarization curves, corrosion potentials, and galvanic currents were measured by using the potentiostat / galvanostat and zero shunt ammeter. From the experiment, the following results were obtained : 1) The gold based alloys showed the high rest potentials and the low current densities within experimental potential range. 2) The rest potentials and the current densities of the palladium-based alloys were influenced by the content of platinum, palladium, and silver. 3) In the nickel-chromium base alloys, the formations of passivation film were influenced by chromium content. The copper-aluminum alloy showed very high current density which was more than 150 mV . 4) The corrosion potentials of ceramic alloys were lower than those of dental casting alloys, but the trend of anodic polarizations were generally similar to the other alloys. 5) The amount of galvanic current and the polarity in the bimetallic galvanic cell could not be predicted considering only the alloy composition. The galvanic current decreased while the measuring time passed, but flew continuously.

In order to investigate the relationship between blood lead with other lead exposure indices and blood pressure in occupationally lead exposed male workers, 629 workers(515 lead exposed workers and 114 non lead exposed workers) in a storage battery factory were studied. Blood lead(PbB), zinc protoporphyrin(ZPP) and urinary δ-aminolevulinic acid(ALAU) were selected as an index of lead exposure. Height and weight were also meaured with calibrated automatic height-weight machine to produce fatness index directly. Personal information on smoking and drinking history were also collected. Blood pressure was mearured by trained nurses with automatic sphingomanometer. All workers took at least 30 minute rest before their measurement of blood pressure. The results obtained were as follows: 1. The prevalence rate of hypertension of lead exposed and non-exposed workers were 3.5% in both group without any difference. 2. There were no differences of systolic and diastolic pressure between groups divided by lead exposure, smoking habit, drinking habit. but the increase of age group made the difference of diastolic pressure, and only differenct of systolic pressure observed in age group of less than 20 and that of more than 40. 3. In pearson's correlation analysis, PbB was correlated with systolic pressure significantly, but not with diastolic pressure. PbB was also correlated with pressure difference(systolic pressure-diastolic pressure). 4. There were no significant increase of systolic, diastolic pressure and pressure difference by the increase of PbB and ZPP grouping. 5. Stepwise multiple regression analysis using systolic pressure as dependent variable and PbB, ZPP, ALAU, age, work duration, smoking habit, drinking habit and fatness (weight*0.9/height-100) as independent variables, revealed that PbB, age, drinking habit and fatness in order were significantly contributed to the dependent variable. 6. Stepwise multiple regression analysis using diastolic pressure as dependent variable and PbB, ZPP, ALAU, age, work duration, smoking habit, drinking habit and fatness (weight*0.9/height-100) as independent variables, revealed that ALAU, age and fatness in order were significantly contributed to the dependent variable. 7. Stepwise multiple regression analysis using pressure difference as dependent variable and PbB, ZPP, ALAU, age, work duration, smoking habit, drinking habit and fatness(weight*0.9/height-100) as independent variables, revealed that PbB, age and fatness in order were significantly contributed to the dependent variable. 8. Logistic analysis of hypertensive conditions with categorized blood lead and other selected categorized independent variables indicated that only age(40> and 40≤) and fatness(1.0> and 1.0≤) were significantly contributed to dependent variable with 95% significant odd ratio confidence interval. With above results, lead exposure in terms of blood lead seemed to be minimally contributed to the raise of blood pressure, and the effect of blood lead was found to be more prominent on the pressure difference than the systolic and diastolic pressure themselves.

에밀 뒤르껭의 도덕성 이론에 관한 연구

임용경 仁川敎育大學校 1993 論文集 Vol.27 No.1

Durkheim defines social facts as ways of acting, thinking and feeling, external to the individual and endowed with a power of coercion, by reason of which they control him. What the has in mind are people`s habits, customs and general way of life as embodied in institutions, laws, morals and political ideologies. These may be at work in individual consciousness but they are distinguishable phenomena to be discovered by observing behavior in the large. According to Chazan, Durkheim may well be considered to be the father of modern moral education. Durkheim`s comprehensive treatment of moral education encompasses the issues, problems, and concept that concern theorists and practitioners of moral education today. Morality is, according to Durkheim, tied to specific contents, acts, rules, behaviors. Durkheim talks about three basic elements of morality: discipline, attachment to society, and autonomy. These elements are, according to Durkheim, "fundamental dispositions" as much as specific moral virtues. Morality means an impersonal or intation of activity. Self-serving action is never regarded as moral. To act morally is to act in terms of the collective interest. The domain of the moral begins where the domain of the social begins. There is an aspect common to all behavior that we ordinarily call moral. To conduct one`s self morally is a matter of abiding by a norm, determing what conduct should obtain in a given instance even before one is required to act. This domain of morality is domain of duty. The morality consist of a system of rules of action that predetermine conduct. Moral discipline not only buttresses the moral life. In effect, it follows that it performs and important fucation in forming character and personality. In fact, man is complete only as the belongs to several societies, morality itself is complete only to the extent that we feel identified with those different groups in which we are involved-family, union, business, political party, humanity. In a general sense, altruistic conduct in all its forms is universally considered as morally praithworthy. To act morally, it is not enough-above all, it is no longer enough -to respect discipline and to be committed to al group. Beyond this, sand whether out deference to a rule or devotion to a collestive idea, we must have knowledge, as clear and complete an awareness as possible of the reasons for our conduct. This consciousness confers on our behavior the autonomy that the public conscience from now on requires of every genuinely and completly moral being. The morally educated person is one who has learned to live in a way that reflects a sense and practice of duty to set of social norms. Such duty and oblication should be accompanied by a sense of the goodness and value of such socialization. The duty, society, and autonomy traits become main components of the curricular and cocurricular school program. Durkheim`s theory of moral education that emerges becomes a touchstone to which most contemporary approaches to moral education respond and react.
