Micro/nano-sized L $a_{0.6}$S $r_{0.4}$Co $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ particles are considered to improve oxygen permeability in highly selective inorganic oxygen separation membrane. A L $a_{0.7}$S $r_{0.3}$G $a_{0.6}$F $e_{0.4}$ $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ membrane with perovskite structure is fabricated by a conventional solid-state reaction. As the oxygen permeation flux of the L $a_{0.7}$S $r_{0.3}$G $a_{0.6}$F $e_{0.4}$ $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ membrane was lower than commercial gas separation membranes, we coated the L $a_{0.6}$S $r_{0.4}$Co $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ particles to enhance the oxygen permeation flux. It has been demonstrated that the effective area of reactive free surface is an important factor in determining the effectiveness of the introduction of coating layer for oxygen permeation. The introduction of micro/nano L $a_{0.6}$S $r_{0.4}$Co $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ particles was very effective for increasing oxygen flux, as the flux was as much as 2 to 6 times higher than that of an uncoated L $a_{0.7}$S $r_{0.3}$G $a_{0.6}$F $e_{0.4}$ $O_{3-}$$\delta$/ membrane.\delta$/ membrane.>/ membrane.brane.

Frictional sounds of 8 vapor permeable water repellent fabrics by sound generator were recorded and analyzed through FFT fast Fourier transform analysis. The frictional Sounds were quantified by calculating level pressure of total sound(LPT), the level range(${\Delta}L$) and the frequency difference(${\Delta}f$). Mechanical properties were measured by KES-FB. LPT values of specimens finished wet coating were higher than those of other kinds of finishing. ${\Delta}L$ values of specimens laminated were highest. Absolute values of ${\Delta}f$ were high in the cire finished and laminated specimens. Values for bending rigidity, shear stiffness and energy required for the compression of coated specimens increased compared with the cire finished and laminated specimens. Laminated specimens had high values of frictional coefficient and low values of surface roughness. Relationship between frictional sounds and mechanical properties analysed by use of correlation coefficients and stepwise regression. LPT showed significant correlation with elongation, tensile energy, geometrical roughness, weight and thickness. ${\Delta}L$ was highly correlated with tensile linearity, frictional coefficient, and ${\Delta}f$ with tensile linearity, weight and thickness. LPT were revealed to be explained by elongation and weight. ${\Delta}L$were predicted by tensile linearity, and ${\Delta}f$ by tensile linearity and thickness.

We say that a triangle ${\Delta}$ tiles the polygon ${\rho}\;if\;{\rho}$ can be decomposed into finitely many non-overlapping triangles similar to ${\Delta}$. Let ${\rho}$ be a parallelogram with angles ${\delta}\;and\;{\pi}-{\delta}\;(0<{\delta}{\leq}{\pi}/2)$ and let ${\Delta}$ be a triangle with angles ${\alpha};{\beta},\;{\gamma}\;({\alpha}{\leq}{\beta}{\leq}{\gamma})$. We prove that if ${\Delta}$ tiles ${\rho}$ then either ${\delta}{\in}\;({\alpha},\;{\beta},\;{\gamma},\;{\pi}-{\gamma},\;{\pi}-2{\gamma})\;or\;dimL_{\rho}=dimL_{{\Delta}}$. We also prove that for every parallelogram P, and for every integer n $(where\;n{\geq}2,\;n{\neq}3)$ there is a triangle ${\Delta}$ so that n similar copies of ${\Delta}\;tile\;{\rho}$.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of ${\delta}$-frames and study its properties. To do so, we introduce ${\delta}$-filters, almost Lindel$\ddot{o}$f frames and Lindel$\ddot{o}$f frames. First, we show that a complete chain or a complete Boolean algebra is a ${\delta}$-frame. Next, we show that a ${\delta}$-frame L is almost Lindel$\ddot{o}$f iff for any ${\delta}$-filter F in L, ${\vee}\{x^*\;:\;x{\in}F\}{\neq}e$. Last, we show that every regular Lindelof ${\delta}$-frame is normal and a Lindel$\ddot{o}$f ${\delta}$-frame is preserved under a ${\delta}$-isomorphism which is dense and codense.

A novel simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) process from the microcrystalline cellulose to ethanol was developed by using $\delta$-integrated recombinant cellulolytic Saccharomyces cerevisiae L2612$L2612\deltaGC$, which can utilize cellulose as carbon and energy sources. The optimum amount of enzymes needed for the efficient conversion of cellulose to ethanol at $30^{\circ}C$ was determined with commercial cellulolytic enzymes. By fed-batch cultivation, the heterologous cellulolytic enzymes were accumulated up to 42.67% of the total cellulase and 29% of the $\beta$-glucosidase needed for the efficient SSF process. When this $\delta$-integrated recombinant yeast was applied to the successive SSF step for ethanol production, 20.35 g/l of ethanol was produced after 12 h from 50 g/l of microcrystalline cellulose. By using this novel SSF process, a considerable amount of commercial enzymes was reduced.

The effect of solvent on the dispersion stability of $CaCO_3$ pigment in various solvents and resin solutions has been studied using Dynometer. Dispersion stability can be estimated in a relatively short time by means of Dynometer and the solubility parameter, ${\delta}$, of $CaCO_3$ determined from dispersion stability was 11.62(${\delta}_d=8.04$, ${\delta}_p=5.05$, ${\delta}_h=6.70$). The solvent showing weaker interaction with pigment increased the adsorption of resin on to the pigment, resulting in higher dispersion stability in resin solution. It was found that the rheological properties and dispersion stability of pigmented resin solution were depending strongly on the solvent added in small amount in the formulation.

It is shown that a lattice distribution defined on a set of n lattice points $L(n,\delta) = {\delta,\delta+1,...,\delta+n-1}$ is a distribution induced from the distribution of convolution of independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.) uniform [0,1] random variables. Also the m-th moment of the lattice distribution is obtained in a quite different approach from Park and Chung (1978). It is verified that the distribution of the sum of n i.i.d. uniform [0,1] random variables is completely determined by the lattice distribution on $L(n,\delta)$ and the uniform distribution on [0,1]. The factorial mement generating function, factorial moments, and moments are also obtained.

Giving a planar graph G, let $x^'_l(G)$ and $x^{''}_l(G)$ denote the list edge chromatic number and list total chromatic number of G respectively. It is proved that if a planar graph G without 6-cycles with chord, then $x^'_l(G){\leq}{\Delta}(G)+1$ and $x^{''}_l(G){\leq}{\Delta}(G)+2$ where ${\Delta}(G){\geq}6$.

Those specifications of the CLIA analytical tolerance limits are consistent with the performance goals in Six Sigma Quality Management. Six sigma analysis determines performance quality from bias and precision statistics. It also shows if the method meets the criteria for the six sigma performance. Performance standards calculates allowable total error from several different criteria. Six sigma means six standard deviations from the target value or mean value and about 3.4 failures per million opportunities for failure. Sigma Quality Level is an indicator of process centering and process variation total error allowable. Tolerance specification is replaced by a Total Error specification, which is a common form of a quality specification for a laboratory test. The CLIA criteria for acceptable performance in proficiency testing events are given in the form of an allowable total error, TEa. Thus there is a published list of TEa specifications for regulated analytes. In terms of TEa, Six Sigma Quality Management sets a precision goal of TEa/6 and an accuracy goal of 1.5 (TEa/6). This concept is based on the proficiency testing specification of target value +/-3s, TEa from reference intervals, biological variation, and peer group median mean surveys. We have found rules to calculate as a fraction of a reference interval and peer group median mean surveys. We studied to develop total error allowable from peer group survey results and CLIA 88 rules in US on 19 items TP, ALB, T.B, ALP, AST, ALT, CL, LD, K, Na, CRE, BUN, T.C, GLU, GGT, CA, phosphorus, UA, TG tests in chematology were follows. Sigma level versus TEa from peer group median mean CV of each item by group mean were assessed by process performance, fitting within six sigma tolerance limits were TP ($6.1{\delta}$/9.3%), ALB ($6.9{\delta}$/11.3%), T.B ($3.4{\delta}$/25.6%), ALP ($6.8{\delta}$/31.5%), AST ($4.5{\delta}$/16.8%), ALT ($1.6{\delta}$/19.3%), CL ($4.6{\delta}$/8.4%), LD ($11.5{\delta}$/20.07%), K ($2.5{\delta}$/0.39mmol/L), Na ($3.6{\delta}$/6.87mmol/L), CRE ($9.9{\delta}$/21.8%), BUN ($4.3{\delta}$/13.3%), UA ($5.9{\delta}$/11.5%), T.C ($2.2{\delta}$/10.7%), GLU ($4.8{\delta}$/10.2%), GGT ($7.5{\delta}$/27.3%), CA ($5.5{\delta}$/0.87mmol/L), IP ($8.5{\delta}$/13.17%), TG ($9.6{\delta}$/17.7%). Peer group survey median CV in Korean External Assessment greater than CLIA criteria were CL (8.45%/5%), BUN (13.3%/9%), CRE (21.8%/15%), T.B (25.6%/20%), and Na (6.87mmol/L/4mmol/L). Peer group survey median CV less than it were as TP (9.3%/10%), AST (16.8%/20%), ALT (19.3%/20%), K (0.39mmol/L/0.5mmol/L), UA (11.5%/17%), Ca (0.87mg/dL1mg/L), TG (17.7%/25%). TEa in 17 items were same one in 14 items with 82.35%. We found out the truth on increasing sigma level due to increased total error allowable, and were sure that the goal of setting total error allowable would affect the evaluation of sigma metrics in the process, if sustaining the same process.

PURPOSE. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the color changes of an autopolymerizing PMMA resin used for interim fixed restorations, reinforced with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Silica nanoparticles were blended with the PMMA resin powder through high-energy ball milling. Four shades of PMMA resin were used (A3, B3, C3, D3) and total color differences were calculated through the equations ${\Delta}E_{ab}=[({\Delta}L*)^2+({\Delta}a*)^2+({\Delta}b*)^2]^{1/2}$ and ${\Delta}E_{00}=[(\frac{{\Delta}L^{\prime}}{K_LS_L})^2+(\frac{{\Delta}C^{\prime}}{K_CS_C})^2+(\frac{{\Delta}H^{\prime}}{K_HS_H})^2+R_T(\frac{{\Delta}C^{\prime}}{K_CS_C})(\frac{{\Delta}H^{\prime}}{K_HS_H})]^{1/2}$. Statistically significant differences between ${\Delta}E_{ab}$ and the clinically acceptable values of 3.3 and 2.7 and those between ${\Delta}E_{00}$ and the clinically acceptable value of 1.8 were evaluated with one sample t-test (P<.05). Differences among the different shades were assessed through One-Way ANOVA and Bonferroni multiple comparison tests. RESULTS. Significantly lower values were detected for all groups concerning ${\Delta}E_{ab}$ compared to the intraorally clinical acceptable values of 3.3 and 2.7. Significantly lower mean values were detected for groups B3, C3, and D3, concerning ${\Delta}E_{00}$ compared to the intraorally clinical acceptant value of 1.8. Color pigments in red-brown (A3) and red-grey (D3) shades affect the total color change to a greater extent after the reinforcement with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles compared to the red-yellow (B3) shade. CONCLUSION. Within the limitations of this in vitro study, it can be suggested that reinforcing PMMA with $SiO_2$ nanoparticles at 0.25 wt% slightly affects the optical properties of the PMMA resin without being clinically perceivable.
