$^{11}B MAS NMR$ spectra of binary glass system $xV_2O5-B_2O_3$ and ternary glass system $xV_2O5-B_2O_3-yNa_2O$ (x = $V_2O_5 mol%/$B_2O_3$ mol%, y = $Na_2O$ mol$/$B_2O_3$ mol%) were acquired. $BO_3$ units are dominant components in the spectra of $xV_2O_5-B_2O_3$glass systems while both $BO_3$ and $BO_4$ unit appear in comparable amounts in the spectra of $xV_2O_5-B_2O_3-yNa_2O$ glass systems. More $BO_3$ units were monitored for higher $V_2O_5$ contents while more $BO_4$ unit for higher $Na_2O$ contents. Quadrupole parameters such as $e^2qQ$ and $\eta$ obtained form spectral simulation indicate that $e^2qQ$ has a maximum value at x = y 1 and $\eta$ decreases and increases as x or y grows, respectively. Our results suggest that $V_2O_5$ and $Na_2O$ play opposite roles in the ternary glasses.

We have prepared the dinuclear half-sandwich CGC(constrained geometry catalyst) with polymethylene bridge $[Zr(({\eta}^5\;:\;{\eta}^1-C_9H_5SiMe_2NCMe_3)Me_2)_2\;[(CH_2)_n]$ [n=6(4), 9(5), 12(6)] by treating 2 equivalents of MeLi with the corresponding dichlorides compounds. To study the catalytic behavior of the dinuclear catalysts we conducted copolymerization of ethylene and 1-hexene in the presence of three kinds of boron cocatalysts, $Ph_3C^+[B(C_6F_5)_4]^-\;(B_1),\;B(C_6F_5)_3\;(B_3)$, and $Ph_3C^+[(C_6F_5)_3B-C_6F_4-B(C_6F_5)_3]^{2-}\;(B_2)$. It turned out that all active species formed by the combination of three dinuclear CGCs with three cocatalyst were very efficient catalysts for the polymerization of olefins. The activities increase as the bridge length of the dinuclear CGCs increases. At the same time the dinuclear cocatalyst exhibited the lowest activity among three cocatalysts. The prime observation is that the dinuclear cocatalyst gave rise to the formation of the copolymers with the least branches on the polyethylene backbone.

Let a and b be nonnegative integers with 2 $\leq$ a < b, and let G be a Hamiltonian graph of order n with n > $\frac{(a+b-5)(a+b-3)}{b-2}$. An [a, b]-factor F of G is called a Hamiltonian [a, b]-factor if F contains a Hamiltonian cycle. In this paper, it is proved that G has a Hamiltonian [a, b]-factor if $\delta(G)\;\geq\;\frac{(a-1)n+a+b-3)}{a+b-3}$ and $\delta(G)$ > $\frac{(a-2)n+2{\alpha}(G)-1)}{a+b-4}$.

The coercivity $H_c$ of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ magnets and $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ composite magnets were calculated by computer simulation based on the micromagnetic theory under assumptions that $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ and $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains have magnetically deteriorated layers on their surfaces and diffusion of Dy from $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains to $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ ones through the contacting boundaries recovers the magnetic anisotropy of the deteriorated layers of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grains. $H_c$ of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B/(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ composite magnets increased by the diffusion of Dy from $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains to $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ ones and the resultant recovery of the anisotropy field of deteriorated layers of $Nd_2Fe_{14}B$ grains. The $H_c$ vs fraction of $(Nd_{0.7}Dy_{0.3})_2Fe_{14}B$ grains curve were convex for the magnets with the degree of alignment between 0.94 and 0.99, which suggests that the above composite magnets have larger $H_c$ values than the alloy-magnets with the same Dy content, and that we can save the consumption of Dy by using these composite magnets.

We developed an in vitro assay method for evaluating plant growth promotion and providing an evidence that the growth promotion is rendered by growth enhancing factors. The amendment of culture filtrates of Trichoderma harzianum T95 and Gliocladium virens G872 and G872B in Murashige and Skoog (MS) agar medium enhanced the cotyledon growth of cucumber in terms of fresh weight and primary leaf area of cucumber cotyledon cuttings, of which the treatment of G. virens G872B was the most effective. The mycelial culture filtrate of G872B was more effective in the growth promotion than its conidial germling filtrate. The addition of 1% sucrose in MS mineral medium with 0.1% culture filtrates of the antagonists (T95 and G872B) was optimum for enhancing the effect of the filtrates on the growth of cotyledon cuttings in vitro. When cucumber seeds treated with G872B, Pseudomonas putida Pf3 or the G872B-Pf3 mixture were planted in a greenhouse, the rate of seed germination, biomass of shoot and root, and yield of cucumber fruits were increased, especially by G872B or the G872B-Pf3 mixture. Correspondingly, cucumber fruit yields in early to middle-cycles of harvest were significantly greater in the plots of G872B than the control and Pf3-treated plots, and the final yield was highest in the plots of the G872B-Pf3 mixture applications.

A new species of the canuellid genus Brianola Monard, 1926 (Copepoda: Harpacticoida) was collected during a meiofauna survey in July 2021 at the intertidal muddy sand of Phuket Island, Thailand. Currently, there are only eight known species of Brianola: B. stebleri, B. exigua, B. curvirostris, B. elegans, B. sydneyensis, B. vangoethemi, B. hamondi, and B. haliensis. Thus, the Brianola rawaiensis sp. nov. from Thailand is the ninth species of the genus. The new species, Brianola rawaiensis is most closely related to B. haliensis by sharing a four-segmented antennule in females and five-segmented antennule in males, eight-segmented antennary exopod and three-segmented antennary endopod, and P1 exp-3 with 5 spines/setae. However, B. rawaiensis sp. nov. is different from B. haliensis by having: 1) P1 exp-1 with 1 outer pinnate spine, 2) P1 exp-2 with inner plumose seta, 3) P2 exp-3 with 3 setae/spines, 4) P2 enp-1 with one inner plumose seta, 5) P4 enp-1 with inner seta. Sexual dimorphism is expressed in the antennule and segmentation of the urosome. Ovigerous female bearing one egg sac with 20 eggs.

Xanthine oxidase involved in pruine metabolism oxidizes hypoxanthine to xanthine and xanthine to uric acid. The derangement of pruine metabolism results in gout that associates painful deposit of monosodium urate in the cartilage of joints. In the continuous study for natural compound, six flavan-3-ols have been isolated from the leaves of Oolong tea. The structures of procyanidin B-1, B-3, procyanidin B-3-3-O-rhamnose, procyanidin B-1-3-O-gallate, (-)-epicatechin, (-)-epicatechin-3-O-gallate were established by NMR and their inhibitory effect on xanthine oxidase activity was investigated. Flavan-3-ols containing the gallate had a high inhibitory capacity. Procyanidin B-1-3-O-gallate showed complete inhibition at $50\;{\mu}M$ and inhibited on the xanthine oxidase competitively.

The variations of sintering and electrical characteristics of semiconducting BaTiO3 ceramics with sintering agents added were investigated comparing the case of BaB2O4 addition to BN and TiO2 addition. When BaB2O4 added in BaTiO3 ceramics the densitifcation of specimen could be acheived more easily and recvealed the better PTCR characteristics than BN and TiO2 addition. As increase of addition of BaB2O4 in BaTiO3 spec imens the slope of resistivity jump also increased but the temperature of maximum resistivity decreased, It was supposed that addition of BaB2O4 led to increase of Ns (acceptor state density) value at grain boundaries.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of consuming goat milk on the bacterial counts (colony forming units [CFU]) in adult women and to evaluate the carbohydrate fermentation capacity of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli isolated from their feces. Adult women who consumed goat milk (treatment group) had relatively higher CFU of bifidobacteria than did the control group, and the difference was significant (p<0.05) after 8 weeks. In total, 13 strains isolated from the feces of women in the treatment group were identified using 16S rRNA sequencing as Bifidobacterium adolescentis, B. longum, B. pseudocatenulatum, B. dentium, and Lactobacillus sakei. Similarly, 12 strains isolated from the feces of women in the control group included B. adolescentis, B. longum, L. ruminis, L. sakei, and B. pseudocatenulatum. All isolated bifidobacteria and lactobacilli fermented goat milk oligosaccharide and lactulose. All 7 strains of B. adolescentis fermented fructooligosaccharides, and 3 of the 4 B. pseudocatenulatum strains, 2 of the 3 L. sakei strains, and 1 of the 7 B. longum strains fermented fructooligosaccharides.

The porous SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$ membrane was prepared from Si(OC$_2$$H_5$)$_4$-($CH_3$O)$_3$B-C$_2$$H_5$OH-$H_2O$ system by sol-gel method. In order to investigate the characteristics of this membrane, we examined that using BET, IR spectrophotometer, X-ray diffractometer, SEM and TEM. At $700^{\circ}C$, the surface area of SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$ membrane was 354.398 $m^2$/, the median pore diameter was 0.0048 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and the particle size of SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$ membrane was 7 nm. The separation properties of the gas mixture ($H_2$/$N_2$) through the SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$ membrane was studied as a function of pressure. The real separation factor($\alpha$) of SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$ membrane for $H_2$/$N_2$ gas mixture was 4.68 at 155.15 cmHg and $25^{\circ}C$. The real separation factor($\alpha$), head separation factor($\beta$) and tail separation factor((equation omitted)) were increased as the pressure of permeation cell increased.
