The BOD removal characteristics of submerged biofilters filled with three kinds of filter media respectively were experimentally examined with constant temperature, pH value and variable BOD loading and recirculation ratio. Obtained results are as follows; 1. The BOD removal ratio decreases with the increasing $BOD_5$ volumetric loading rate, and the loading rate for the BOD removal over 90% is lower thean $1.6kg{\cdot}BOD_5/m^3{\cdot}d$ for the plastic media of Netring and cubic wire meshes. This is a much large value than $0.3{\sim}0.8kg{\cdot}BOD_5/m^3{\cdot}d$ for conventional activated sludge process. The required submerged biofilter volume is found to be much samller than that of conventional activated sludge process. 2. The decreasing order of BOD removal is Netring (random plastic media), cubic wire meshes (plastic module), and then gravel (stone media). This is mainly due to the media characteristics such as void ratio, specific surface area and media shapes. 3. The $BOD_5$ removal rate increases with the recircuration ration, but the rate of increases becomes samaller as the recirculation ratio increases over 20. When $BOD_5$ loading is $1.8kg{\cdot}BOD_5/m^3{\cdot}d$, the required recirculation rationto obtain 90% $BOD_5$ removal is about 20 for Netring and it was about 30 for cubic wire meshes. 4. Reynold's Number increases with recirculation ratio, and the Reynold's Numbers corresponding to the recircuration ratio of 10~50 are less than 52, showing laminar up flows in the filter. The settled and effluent sludges increase with increase of Reynol's Number, and there are the definite Reynold's Numbers at which the settling sludge concentrations become nearly constant respectively in each filters. 5. In this submerged biofilter system, small volume of sludge hopper can be substituted for a separated settling tank.

In this paper, we propose a three-dimensional (3D) image correlator by use of computational integral imaging reconstruction based on the modified convolution property of periodic functions (CPPF) for recognition of partially occluded objects. In the proposed correlator, elemental images of the reference and target objects are picked up by a lenslet array, and subsequently are transformed to a sub-image array which contains different perspectives according to the viewing direction. The modified version of the CPPF is applied to the sub-images. This enables us to produce the plane sub-image arrays without the magnification and superimposition processes used in the conventional methods. With the modified CPPF and the sub-image arrays, we reconstruct the reference and target plane sub-image arrays according to the reconstruction plane. 3D object recognition is performed through cross-correlations between the reference and the target plane sub-image arrays. To show the feasibility of the proposed method, some preliminary experiments on the target objects are carried out and the results are presented. Experimental results reveal that the use of plane sub-image arrays enables us to improve the correlation performance, compared to the conventional method using the computational integral imaging reconstruction algorithm.

A 6-GHz-to-18-GHz monolithic nonuniform distributed power amplifier has been designed using the load modulation of increased series gate capacitance. This amplifier was implemented using a $0.25-{\mu}m$ AlGaN/GaN HEMT process on a SiC substrate. With the proposed load modulation, we enhanced the amplifier's simulated performance by 4.8 dB in output power, and by 13.1% in power-added efficiency (PAE) at the upper limit of the bandwidth, compared with an amplifier with uniform gate coupling capacitors. Under the pulse-mode condition of a $100-{\mu}s$ pulse period and a 10% duty cycle, the fabricated power amplifier showed a saturated output power of 39.5 dBm (9 W) to 40.4 dBm (11 W) with an associated PAE of 17% to 22%, and input/output return losses of more than 10 dB within 6 GHz to 18 GHz.

Enzymatic syntheses of water soluble Bakuchiol glycosides were carried out in di-isopropyl ether organic media using amyloglucosidase from Rhizopus mold. The reactions were carried out under conventional reflux conditions and in supercritical $CO_2$ atmospheric conditions. Out of the eleven carbohydrate molecules employed for the reaction, D-glucose, D-ribose and D-arabinose gave glycosides in yields of 9.0% to 51.4% under conventional reflux conditions. Under supercritical $CO_2$ atmosphere (100 bar pressure at 50 ${^{\circ}C}$), bakuchiol formed glycosides with Dglucose, D-galactose, D-mannose, D-fructose, D-ribose, D-arabinose, D-sorbitol and D-mannitol in yields ranging from 9% to 46.6%. Out of the bakuchiol glycosides prepared, 6-O-(6-D-fructofruranosyl)bakuchiol showed the best antioxidant (1.4 mM) and ACE inhibitory activities (0.64 mM).

Cryopreservation is able to store the surplus pre-embryos for freezing and furthermore thawing and transfer in a subsequent cycle. Cryopreserving cells which are maintaining their viability are the very complex process. This study has been carried out in order to find the effects of cryopreservation steps, freezing media and embryonic stages on the rates of viability and development of cryopreserved mouse embryos. Female ICR mice ($6{\sim}8$ weeks old) were induced to superovulate by sequential intraperitoneal injection of 5 IU PMSG and 5 IU hCG 48h apart. Mouse embryos were collected according to its developmental stage after the injection of hCG. Embryos were cryopreserved not only by cryoprotectant step (1 step${\sim}$4 step) but also in a variety of media (HTF, IVF medium, D-PBS) and cell stage. The results were as follows: There is no clear advantage in these freezing media of rapid method, but 4 cell and 8 cell of slow method (2, 3, 4 step) have advantage in D-PBS. The development of embryos according to cell stage become greater in 8 cell stage. In the treatment steps of cryopreservation, the development of embryo to blastocyst was similar among rapid method, but the development of 4 cell and 8 cell embryos to blastocyst according to slow method was better than rapid method.

This study was conducted to enhance the storage stability and the wholesomeness of salted and fermented shrimp manufactured with different salt levels by high hydrostatic pressure sterilization. The effects of high hydrostatic pressure treatment on the putrefactive bacteria in the fermented shrimps were investigated and the sterilization kinetics was analyzed. The initial microbial counts of the fermented shrimp with 8%, 18% salt aged for 6 weeks at $20^{circ}C$ were $1.6{\times}10^3,\;1.4{\times}10^4$ CFU/g for bacteria grown on Vibrio selective media, $9.3{\times}10^3,\;1.7{\times}10^5$ CFU/g for bacteria grown on Staphylococcus selective media, respectively, and null for bacteria grown on Salmonella selective media. The degree of the sterilization increased with the magnitude of the pressure and the treatment time. The fermented shrimp pressurized at 6,500 atm for 10 min had no detectable bacteria grown on Vibrio and Staphylococcus selective media at $10^2$ CFU/g detecting limit. High hydrostatic pressure sterilization could be analyzed by first order reaction kinetics. The $D_P$ values of the bacteria grown on Vibrio selective media of the fermented shrimp at 18% salt were higher than those at 8% salt, while those of the bacteria grown on Staphylococcus selective media showed an inverse trend. The $z_p$ values of 8% salt fermented shrimp were higher than those of 18% salt for both bacteria grown on Vibrio selective media and Staphylococcus selective media. High hydrostatic pressure treatment could be applied for the sterilization of the fermented shrimp, and the optimum high pressure sterilization condition was 10 min treatment at 6,500 atm.

The conditions for callus formation and plant regeneration were confirmed in four varieties of alfalfa(Medicago sativa L.). Among four varieties of alfalfa, "Vernal" expressed the highest rate for both of callus formation and plant regeneration. Otherwise, among SH(Schenk and Hildebrandt), MS(Murachige and Skoog) and N6 medium (Chu), SH medium was highest degree of efficiencies respectively in callus formatio and plant regeneration. In this study, we determined volume of hormones and other compounds appended in media. For callus formation, only $3mg/{\ell}$ of 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) was appended in their media. For plant regeneration, the three kinds of media were used; the medium appended $5mg/{\ell}$ of NAA (1-naphtalene acetic acid) and $2mg/{\ell}$ of kinetin (6-furfurylaminopurine), the medium appended $11mg/{\ell}$ of 2,4-D and $1mg/{\ell}$ of kinetin, and the medium appended $1.6g/{\ell}$ of ammonium sulfate and $5.75g/{\ell}$ of proline. We obtained alfalfa plants from callus by regeneration, about sixty five days later transfer calli to regeneration media.
