We compute genus distributions for bouquets of dipoles by using the method concerning the cycle structure of permutations in the symmetric group. From this, we can deduce that every bouquet of dipoles is upper embeddable. We find a foumula for computing the embedding polynomials for bouquets of dipoles.

As larger the commercial vessel is, and rougher the marine environment becomes nowadays, drag embedment type anchor (DEA) of more stable performance and higher holding power is requested to be applied on the vessel. But, the performance of DEA has not become well known to academy and industries so far, that the basic study of DEA performance and holding force for the development of new DEA of higher performance is insufficient that required. In this paper, three types of same holding category DEA model (HALL, AC-14, POOL-N, scale 1/10), which are generally applied on the commercial vessel nowadays, were tested by being horizontally dragged on the test tank, on which sand was being floored with sufficient depth, and measured the holding force of each anchor simultaneously using load cell and D/A converter. With the test results, the embedding motion was analyzed to have three different stages and the holding force of each anchor was analyzed with respect to the anchor geometry, such as shape and weight of each type of anchors, and final embedding depth.

Embryogenic calli were induced from mature seed scutella of anther culture-derived rice variety Zhonghua 8. Cell suspension cultures were initiated from friable embryogenic calli and utilized as source material for protoplast isolation. Generally, the older and finer cell suspensions gave higher protoplast yields than younger suspension cultures. Protoplasts exhibited sustained cell division and formed microcalli when cultured in KPR medium supplemented with 0.5 mg $l^{-1}$ 2,4-D, 1.0 mg $l^{-1}$ NAA and 0.5 mg $l^{-1}$ zeatin using the agarose embedding procedure without feeder cells. Protoplast plating efficiencies ranged from 0.20 to 0.54％. Microcalli were transferred to MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg $l^{-1}$ kinetin and 0.5mg $l^{-1}$ NAA for plant regeneration. The regeneration frequencies were 2 to 12％, depending on the cell suspension lines of Zhonghua 8. The plants were transferred to the glasshouse and were fertile.

High-efficient transparent conductive oxide (TCO) film-embedding Si heterojunction solar cells were fabricated. An improved crystalline indium-tin-oxide (ITO) film was grown on an Al-doped ZnO (AZO) template upon hetero-epitaxial growth. This double TCO-layered Si solar cell provided significantly enhanced efficiency of 9.23 % as compared to the single TCO/Si devices. The effective arrangement of TCO films (ITO/AZO) provides a good interface, resulting in the enhanced photovoltaic performances. It discusses TCO film arrangement scheme for efficient TCO-layered heterojunction solar cells.

Possessing of carbon nanotubes in biopolymer intrigued much interest due to their mechanical and unique nanoscale surface properties. Surface stiffness can be controlled by the amount of carbon nanotubes in polymer and surface wettability can be altered by the order of nanoscale surface roughness. Protein adsorption mechanism on nanostructured carbon nanotube/polymer thin film will be discussed in this study. In addition, we identified that mechanical stimuli also contribute the messenchymal stem cell and bone cell interactions. Importantly, live cell analysis system also showed altered morphology and cellular functions. Thus, embedding of carbon nanostructures simultaneously contribute to protein adsorption and cellular interactions. In conclusion, this study demonstrated the evidence that nanoscale surface features determine the subsequent biological interactions, such as protein adsorption and cellular interactions.

A Cayley map is a 2-cell embedding of a Cayley graph into an orientable surface with the same local orientation induced by a cyclic permutation of generators at each vertex. In this paper, we provide classifications of prime-valent regular Cayley maps on abelian groups, dihedral groups and dicyclic groups. Consequently, we show that all prime-valent regular Cayley maps on dihedral groups are balanced and all prime-valent regular Cayley maps on abelian groups are either balanced or anti-balanced. Furthermore, we prove that there is no prime-valent regular Cayley map on any dicyclic group.

This study was performed to establish the condition and the methods for the techniques of insertion the isolated blastomere cells into cytoplasm, in order to research the develop-mental ability of bovine embryo blastomere cells in vitro produced. After 24h in vitro ovary maturation with the ovaries from a slaughter house, in vitro fertilization was performed to the vital sperms which their mobility were decided by percoll gradient method, with 2~8 cell stage embryos, the blastomeres were isolated in $Ca^2$+. $Mg^2$+-free PBS, and following that embedded into agar and alginate solution, respectively. The rates of in vitro develop-ment are as follows ; in agar embedded 11 among 120(9.2%) 1 /2~1 /3 blastomers cleaved and 6 among 93(6.5%) 1 /4~1 /8 blastomeres cleaved. In sodium alginate-embedded 14 among 84(16.7%) 1 /2~1 /3 blastomeres cleaved and 6 among 85(7.1%) 1 /4~1 /8 blastomeres cleaved. In case of Na-alginate, the rate of the cells were better than those of agar. The results suggest that the techniques for embeeding the isolated blastomeres into gel may help cloning of bovine early embryo without nuclear transplantation.

Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Cytology (FNABC), which is known as the most accurate and cost-effective method for diagnosis of the thyroid nodule, may still result in indeterminate cases that are cellular paucity and show minor nuclear atypia. However, most cases are associated with suspicion of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). A B-type Raf kinase (BRAF) mutation was found in about half of PTCs which is currently helping us to differentiate malignancies from benign lesions. Cases studied included 46 histological, confirmed PTC cases. FNABC 102 cell paucity and 74 atypia benign cases were previously diagnosed as suspicious of PTC using cytologic examination. These cases were analyzed for BRAF mutation by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) with a new restriction enzyme. In this study, the sensitivity and specificity were calculated and, BRAF mutation was detected by means of a histological method in 23 of 46 cases of PTC and no mutation was found in 22 cases. However, one case was not detected. In using FNABC, BRAF mutation was detected in 6 of 102 cases in cell paucity and in 11 of 74 cases in the atypia. Two cases were not detected in the atypia. The sensitivity and specificity of PCR-RFLP in FNABC were 60% and 97.4% respectively. Assessment of Formalin Fixed Paraffin Embedding (FFPE) block demonstrated similarly a 51.1% positive and 48.9% negative in PTC. Evaluation of BRAF mutation revealed high specificity and low sensitivity in using FNABC method. This study suggests that BRAF mutation analysis should be useful for the clinical diagnosis of PTC in FNABC with cytological findings suspicious for PTC.

In order to know the growth of suspended cells by explant sources, the change of nitrogen contents of cultured cells following the growth periods, capability of micro-callus formation according to cell plating methods, growth of suspended cells on various media, and efficiency of micro-callus formation by using growth regulators and different N strengths were investigated. 1. When suspension culture was tried by using the callus induced from internode and petiole, cell fresh weight and packed cell volume increased with similar way and the growth reached at stationary phase after 12 culture days. 2. N-contents of cultured cells increased upto 3 days and decreased around 6days. But the values increased again upto 9 days, after that they showed gradual decreases. 3. Of cell plating methods, embedding method was the best for micro-callus formation. 4. Growth of suspened cells showed the rest performanoes, when they were cultured on LM medium with 1/2N strengths and BAP 0.01.2.4-D 0.1, and NAA $1.0mg/{\ell}$, after 15 cultured days(upto 76.9 folds). LM medium was better than MS or GD. The combination of auxin and cytokinin was better for cell growing than auxin-treatment only. 5. Micro-callus from single cell and small cell aggregates was formed only on MS and LM media with 2,4-D $1.0mg/{\ell}$.
