For continuous ethanol production In an immobilized cell reactor consisting of Saccharomyces sake, feedings of one tenth to three tenths times diluted fermentation media were effective for maintaining the high ethanol productivity and physical stability of immobilized beads. In case two tenths times dilltued one of the fermentation medium supplemented with egg albumin hydrolysate(0.5%) and phosphatidylcholine(0.5%) was fed, a maximum ethanol productivity of $69 g/\ell$-hr was attained at a dilution rate of$1.1lhr^{-1}$, and it was 50% higher than that of the two tenths times diluted one of the fermentation medium without any supplement, $46 g/\ell$-hr.

Well developed hydroxyapatite whiskers (length 5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, diameter 0.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) have been synthesized by the hydrolysis reaction of $\alpha$-tricalcium phosphate ($\alpha$-Ca$_3$(PO$_4$)$_2$) under pH 9.1 at 9$0^{\circ}C$ for 6 h. The effect of reaction conditions (temperature, time, pH) on the conversion of $\alpha$-tricalcium phosphate to hydroxyapatite was examined. In addition, the hydroryapatite was characterized in terms of microstructure, composition and thermal stability using XRD, SEM, ICP, and TGA instruments.

Production of cyclodextrin (CD) by cyclodextrin glycosyltransferase (CGTase) isolated from alkalophilic Bacillus sp. was carried out to determine optimal reaction conditions. The maximum initial rate of CD production from amylose was obtained at dextrose equivalent 10.5. The CD production yield showed inverse proportionality to DE values over the range from 0.5 to 37.7. Even though the deactivation constant of CGTase at $60^{\circ}C$ was higher than those at lower temperatures, the production rate and yield at $60^{\circ}C$ were still higher. These results suggest thermal stabilization of CGTase by binding with starch.

Computer simulation is essential to design the suspension elements of railway vehicle. By computer simulation, engineers can assess the feasibility of the given design factors and change them to get a better design. But if one wishes to perform complex analysis on the simulation, such as railway vehicle dynamic, the computational time can become overwhelming. Therefore, many researchers have used a surrogate model that has a regression model performed on a data sampling of the simulation. In general, metamodels(surrogate model) take the form y($\chi$)＝f($\chi$)＋$\varepsilon$, where y($\chi$) is the true output, f($\chi$) is the metamodel output, and is the error. In this paper, a second order polynomial equation is used as the RSM(response surface model) for high speed train that have twenty-nine design variables and forty-six responses. After the RSM is constructed, multi-objective optimal solutions are achieved by using a nonlinear programming method called VMM(variable matric method) This paper shows that the RSM is a very efficient model to solve the complex optimization problem.

Development of extractive metallurgical processes for metal sulfides has become of importance owing to the depletion of oxide ores with rich metal contents. Most of the leaching reactions of metal sulfides is electrochemical reaction and can be classified as $H_2S$, S, and ${SO_4}^{2-}$ evolution type. The acidity of leaching solution and the presence and concentration of an oxidizing agent affect the formation of reaction intermediates containing sulfur. Frost diagram of sulfuroxoanion indicates that the oxoanions with higher oxidation number are more thermodynamically stable in the presence of oxidizing agents.

In this study, the effect of various concentrations of antioxidants on thermo-oxidative degradation of polyamide 6 was investigated. Unstabilized and stabilized polyamides 6 were subjected to long-term oven aging in ambient atmosphere at 70~$160^{\circ}C$. All of specimens were discolored within 100 hr at temperature range of 70~$160^{\circ}C$. Optimum antioxidant concentration was determined from the data of mechanical properties, yellowness index and relative viscosity. The synergistic effect of each primary and secondary antioxidant concentrations was not observed. Yellowing phenomenon was explained by using NMR, IR and EA. Different carbonyl groups were detected by $^{13}C$/NMR. During thermooxidative degradation, oxygen consumptions were determined by EA. The lifetime after long-term aging was predicted using Arrhenius equation.

The enzymatic properties of pectin esterase from Aspergillus sp. were studied. The optimum conditions for the enzyme reaction were pH 4.2 and temperature of $45^{\circ}C$. The crude enzyme was very stable at pH range of $2.2{\sim}4.6$, but about 20 percent of activity was lost at the range of pH $5.4{\sim}8.0$. The crude enzyme was very stable at $50^{\circ}C$ for one hour, however almost 100 percent of enzyme activity was lost at $70^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The pectin esterase activity of crude enzyme was greatly inhibited by addition of sodium chloride at lower pH range. That is, the inhibition rates of enzyme activity at pH 3.0 and 4.0 were 47% and 28% in concentration of 1M sodium chloride, respectively. The enzyme activity was not affected by sodium chloride at pH 7.0 at different concentration of sodium chloride. Although the enzyme activity was not affected by addition of sucrose, it was slightly inhibited at higher concentration of sucrose.

Background: The epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs), became an attractive therapeutic option for advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several studies suggested that there might be some different efficacy or response predictors between gefitinib and erlotinib. We compared the efficacy and toxicity of gefitinib and erlotinib in Korean patients with advanced NSCLC and evaluated specific predictors of response for both gefitinib and erlotinib. Methods: We collected the clinical information on patients with advanced NSCLC, who were treated with gefitinib or erlotinib at the Ewha Womans University Hospital, between July 2003 and February 2009. Median survival times were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Eighty-six patients (52 gefitinib vs. 34 erlotinib) were enrolled. Patient median age was 64 years; 53 (62%) subjects were male. Out of the 86 patients treated, 83 received response evaluation. Of the 83 patients, 35 achieved a response and 12 experienced stable disease while 36 experienced progressive disease, resulting in a response rate of 42% and a disease control rate of 57%. After a median follow-up of 502 days, the median progression-free and overall survival time was 129 and 259 days, respectively. Comparing patients by treatment (gefitinib vs erlotinib), there were no significant differences in the overall response rate (44% vs. 39%, p=0.678), median survival time (301 days vs. 202 days, p=0.151), or time to progression (136 days vs. 92 days, p=0.672). Both EGFR-TKIs showed similar toxicity. In a multivariate analysis using Cox regression model, adenocarcinoma was an independent predictor of survival (p=0.006; hazard ratio [HR], 0.487; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.292-0.811). Analyses of subgroups did not show any difference in response predictors between gefitinib and erlotinib. Conclusion: Comparing gefitinib to erlotinib, there were no differences in the response rate, overall survival, progression-free survival, or toxicity. No specific predictor of response to each EGFR-TKI was identified.

Currently, the autonomous vehicle market is commercializing a level 3 autonomous vehicle, but it still requires the attention of the driver. After the level 3 autonomous driving, the most notable aspect of level 4 autonomous vehicles is vehicle stability. This is because, unlike Level 3, autonomous vehicles after level 4 must perform autonomous driving, including the driver's carelessness. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the Emergency-notification and Driver-response Confirmation System(EDCS) for an autonomousvehicle safety that notifies the driver of an emergency situation and recognizes the driver's reaction in a situation where the driver is careless. The EDCS uses the emergency situation delivery module to make the emergency situation to text and transmits it to the driver by voice, and the driver response confirmation module recognizes the driver's reaction to the emergency situation and gives the driver permission Decide whether to pass. As a result of the experiment, the HMM of the emergency delivery module learned speech at 25% faster than RNN and 42.86% faster than LSTM. The Tacotron2 of the driver's response confirmation module converted text to speech about 20ms faster than deep voice and 50ms faster than deep mind. Therefore, the emergency notification and driver response confirmation system can efficiently learn the neural network model and check the driver's response in real time.
