Korean species of the genera Adapsilia Waga and Porogeloemyia Hendel are taxonomically investigated. So far, members of Pyrgotidae are known as internal parasites of adult scarabaeoid booties, but host relationships of the above two genera are not known yet. Based on the Korean specimens of these genera, adult external structures, including genitalia of both sexes, are described and illustrated. As a result, we recognized the following 10 species previously unknown in Korea: Adapsilia breviantenna sp. nov. ; A. coarctata Waga; A. cornugaster sp. nov.; A. hispida sp. nov.,; A. longifasciata sp. nov.; A. ochrosoma sp. nov.; A. tenebrosa sp. nov.; Parageloemyia nigrofasciata(Hendel); and P. wonjuensis sp. nov. In addition, we provided a key to the all 14 Korean pyrgotid species and conducted a cladistic analysis to infer phylogenetic relationships among them.

본 연구에서는 고변형된 이중 에피층에서 두 가지 종류의 반원 전위 루프 (60˚및 쌍격자 전위)의 생성 속도물 예측하는 모델을 제안한다. 모델링 시, 에피층 표면에서 발생하는 결함과 이곳에 집중되는 응력 효과를 고려하였으며, Matthew의 식을 발전시켜 에피층 두께에 따른 잔류 변형율을 변수로 사용하였다. 모델링을 통한 계산 결과에 의하면, 응력 집중 현상은 고변형된 이종에피층에서 전위 및 결정 결함 현상을 설명하는 데 매우 중요하였다. 또한,본 연구를 퉁하여, 응력 집중 현상이 에피층 성장 초기에 생성되는 전위 형태를 결정하는 주요한 인자 중 하나임을 단면 투과 전자 현미경 결과와의 비교를 통해 확인할 수 있었다.

Sperm competent for fertilization can become capacitated, bind to the zona pellucida (ZP)of an egg in a specific manner, and complete acrosomal exocytosis. Failure to carry out these functions results in infertility. Although the interactions between the ZP and the plasma membrane overlying the sperm acrosome have been considered important for sperm-egg recognition and signalling recent results have prompted a reassessment of current paradigms concerning these interactions. In this review, we're going to discuss about the roles of the acrosomal matrix, the particulate component of the acrosomal contents, in fertilization. The general hypothesis is that acrosomal exocytosis leads to the exposure of acrosomal matrix proteins that become de facto extracellula matrix(ECM) on the surface of the sperm head, and that the dynamic interactions of this newly-exposed sperm ECM with the egg ECM (the ZP) govern sperm-egg recognition and sperm penetration of the ZP. Informations from these experiments may provide new ways to address the poor ZP binding of sperm from some human infertility patients and may offer new avenues for contraception through the disruption of purposeful sperm-ZP binding.

경상남도 사천 지역에 분포한 백악기 진주층의 비해성(非海成) 퇴적층에서 생흔화석 Protovirgularia McCoy, 1850를 보고한다. 이 지역의 진주층은 주로 호수 환경에서 퇴적된 회색의 이암과 셰일 및 세립질 사암으로 구성되어 있다. 이러한 Protovirgularia의 산출은 비해성 퇴적 환경에서 처음으로 보고되는 것이다.

The purpose of this study was to reduce the chronical low back pain for the manual material handlers. The objectives of this study was to: (1) examine lifting variables, (2) analyze collected data, and (3) suggest lifting redesign recommendations in workplace. The data were collected in A company, manufactures various paints in Si-Wha industrial complex, Kyunggi-Do. It was found that Sb(horizontal distance), Sc(vertical distance), 54(travelling distance) and Sf(frequency) were significant at the 0.01 level and Sa(weight) was significant at the 0.05 level.
