More than 100 Mbps rate is needed in the UBcN for a subscriber to receive broadband traffics with multi-channel like UDTV or 3DTV. Although the optical fiber is recently deployed for the FTTH, the UTP is the most widely used medium and will be used in UBcN age. Network providers may consider the 1000BASE-T or the vectorized VDSL if they adopts the UTP in the place where does not have optical fibers. But UTP should be expanded because 1000BASE-T and vectorized UTP needs 4 and 3 pairs cable, respectively while residential region has not exceeding 2 pair UTP cable. To solve the problem, we propose a 500BASE-T technology using 2 pairs UTP in this paper. The technology introduces a rate adaptation sublayer and a SERDES sublayer above and under the PCS, respectively. The rate adaptation sublayer is compatible for the GMII. Also, if we modify the SERDES sublayer, the technology can easily obtain 250BASE-T with 2 pairs UTP. We implement such functions with FPGA and analog board and verify the function of rate adaptation and symbol vector synchronization, and effective transmission rate by experiments. In particular, we show that link efficiency is increased by enable control in the rate adaptation sublayer.

The effects of G-T mismatches on thermal stability, the base-pair lifetime and the global structure of a d(GCGTGCGC)2 duplex were studied by using 1H NMR, UV and CD spectroscopy. The existence of G-T mismatches was found to cause a noticeable change in the chemical environment of imino protons associated with significant decrease in the base-pair lifetime at the mismatched site as well as in thermal stability of the duplex itself. The melting transition of d(GCGTGCGC)2 was not cooperative at all at 100 mM or lower concentration of NaCl, but became cooperative at 500 mM or higher NaCl concentration. The melting temperature (Tm) of this duplex was 32℃ at 500 mM concentration of NaCl, which is much lower than that of d(GCGCGCGC)2 at the same NaCl concentration. This suggests that the decrease in stability may be ascribed to the decrease in the base-pair lifetime and the deviation from the normal structure due to the G-T mismatches. Adding berenil to d(GCGTGCGC)2 caused no observable change in the global structure but the large decrease in the base-pair lifetime and the stability of the duplex.

Background: To compare the effects of intraoperative infusions of balanced electrolyte solution (BES)-based hydroxyethyl starch (HES) and saline-based albumin on metabolic acidosis and acid/base changes during major abdominal surgery conducted using Stewart's approach. Methods: Forty patients, aged 20-65 years, undergoing major abdominal surgery, were randomly assigned to the HES group (n = 20; received 500 ml of BES-based 6% HES 130/0.4) or the albumin group (n = 20; received 500 ml of normal saline-based 5% albumin). Acid-base parameters were measured and calculated using results obtained from arterial blood samples taken after anesthesia induction (T1), 2 hours after surgery commencement (T2), immediately after surgery (T3), and 1 hour after arriving at a postanesthetic care unit (T4). Results: Arterial pH in the HES group was significantly higher than that in the albumin group at T3 ($7.40{\pm}0.04$ vs. $7.38{\pm}0.04$, P = 0.043), and pH values exhibited significant intergroup difference over time (P = 0.002). Arterial pH was significantly lower at T3 and T4 in the HES group and at T2, T3, and T4 in the albumin group than at T1. Apparent strong ion difference (SIDa) was significantly lower at T2, T3, and T4 than at T1 in both groups. Total plasma weak nonvolatile acid ($A_{TOT}$) was significantly lower in the HES group than in the albumin group at T2, T3 and T4 and exhibited a significant intergroup difference over time (P < 0.001). Conclusions: BES-based 6% HES infusion was associated with lower arterial pH values at the end of surgery than saline-based 5% albumin infusion, but neither colloid caused clinically significant metabolic acidosis (defined as an arterial pH < 7.35).

Magnetite nanoparticles were synthesized by adding excess ammonium hydroxide to a solution of iron (II) and (III) chlorides. The surfactants of oleic acid and Span 80 were applied in sequence to the magnetic particles as a combined stabilizer, and poly-${\alpha}$-olefin (PAO) 30 or 60 was used as the liquid base with a low or high viscosity, respectively. The ferrofluids were prepared with the concentrations of 200, 300, 400, and 500 mg/mL, and characterized by density, dispersion, magnetization, and viscosity. The density of the fluids increased proportionally to the concentration from 0.98 to 1.27 g/mL and 1.01 to 1.30 g/mL with PAO 30 base and PAO 60 base, and the dispersion stability was 77-95 and 81-74% for the PAO-30 and PAO-60-based fluids, respectively. The observed saturation magnetization values of the PAO-30 and PAO-60-based ferrofluids were 16 to 42 mT and 17 to 41 mT with the concentration increase in the range 200-500 mg/mL, respectively, depending upon the content of magnetic particles in the fluid. The viscosity variation of the PAO-30 and PAO-60-based ferrofluids in the temperature range $20-80^{\circ}C$ was the least with the concentrations of 400 and 300 mg/mL, respectively.

Recent advances in sequencing technologies and platforms have enabled to generate metagenomics sequences using different sequencing platforms. In this study, we analyzed and compared shotgun metagenomic sequences generated by HiSeq3000 and BGISEQ-500 platforms from 12 sediment samples collected across the Norwegian coast. Metagenomics DNA sequences were normalized to an equal number of bases for both platforms and further evaluated by using different taxonomic classifiers, reference databases, and assemblers. Normalized BGISEQ-500 sequences retained more reads and base counts after preprocessing, while a slightly higher fraction of HiSeq3000 sequences were taxonomically classified. Kaiju classified a higher percentage of reads relative to Kraken2 for both platforms, and comparison of reference database for taxonomic classification showed that MAR database outperformed RefSeq. Assembly using MEGAHIT produced longer assemblies and higher total contigs count in majority of HiSeq3000 samples than using metaSPAdes, but the assembly statistics notably improved with unprocessed or normalized reads. Our results indicate that both platforms perform comparably in terms of the percentage of taxonomically classified reads and assembled contig statistics for metagenomics samples. This study provides valuable insights for researchers in selecting an appropriate sequencing platform and bioinformatics pipeline for their metagenomics studies.

The automated ECG diagnostic systems that are odd in hospitals have low performance of P-wave detection when faced with some diseases such as conduction block. So, the purpose of this study was the improvement of detection performance in conduction block which is low in P-wave detection. The first procedure was removal of baseline drift by subtracting the median filtered signal of 0.4 second length from the original signal. Then the algorithm detected R peak and T end point and cancelled the QRS-T complex to get'p prototypes'. Next step was magnification of P prototypes with dispersion and detection of'p candidates'in the magnified signal, and then extraction of contextual information concerned with P-waves. For the last procedure, the CIR was applied to P candidates to confirm P-waves. The rule base consisted of three rules that discriminate and confirm P-waves. This algorithm was evaluated using 500 patient's raw data P-wave detection perFormance was in- creased 6.8% compared with the QRS-T complex cancellation method without application of the rule base.

The thermodynamic dissociation constants of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3\;and\;[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ in aqueous solutions at $25{\circ}$ and at the pressure from 1 bar to 2000 bars were measured by conductometric method. The dissociation constants were increased with pressure elevation because of volume decreasing by the formation of charged ions during dissociation reaction. That is, the $pK^T$ values of $[Co(en)]_3Cl_3$ were 2.16 for I bar, 2.08 for 500 bars, 2,08 for 1000 bars, 2.05 for 1500 bars and 2.03 for 2000 bars, respectively and those of $[Co(NH_3)_6Cl_3$ were 2.02 for 1 bar 1.96 for 500 bars, 1.90 for 1000 bars, 1. 88 for 1500 bars and 1. 87 for 2000 bars, respectively. Comparing and analyzing the values of Stokes' radii and $K^T$, the formation of ion pair compound was affected by not only the electrostatic interaction, but also the Interal Conjugate Base(ICB), which was increased by the elevation of the pressure.

This study is concerned with the accuracy, the pattern of error with which subjects can interpolate the location of a pointer or a target between two graduation markers with various size on CRT display. Stimuli were graphic images on CRT with a linear, end-marked, ungraduated scales having a target for t base-line sizes. The location of a target is estimated in units over the range 1-99. Smallest error of estimates was at the near ends and middle of the base-line. The median error was less 2 units, modal error was 1, and most error(;99.6%) was within 10. Subjects had a more tendency to overestimate than to underestimate at the left-part of base-line in all siges, and an opposite tendency at the right-part. A proper size to minimize the interpolation error exists such that size 500. It is suggested that interpolation of fifths and even tenths will give a reguired accuracy for certain situations, and relative location and base-line size has a relevant attribute to interpolate.

Ore deposits of Dongwon mine are composed of numerous gold and silver veins emplaced in sedimentary rocks of Cambrian Choseon Supergroup and granitoids of Cretaceous age. Ore veins of the mine can be divided into gold and silver veins on the base of vein structure, mineral assemblage and vein trends. Mutual relationships between gold and silver veins are uncertain. Gold veins are simple veins which are composed of base-metal sulfides, and electrum with quartz and ankerite. On the other hand, silver veins are complex veins which reveal three distinct stages of mineral deposition based on vein structure; stage I, deposition of small amounts of oxides and pyrite with quartz; stage II, deposition of base-metal sulfides, small amounts of Ag-bearing minerals, calcite and quartz; stage III, deposition of base metal sulfides, electrum, Ag-sulfosalts, native silver, carbonates and quartz. Homogenization temperature and salinity of fluid inclusion from quartz of gold vein are as follows; $229^{\circ}$ to $283^{\circ}C$, 4.7 to 6.4 wt.% equivalent NaCI. The ore mineralogy suggests that temperature(T) and sulfur fugacity($fs_2$) of the formation of the gold vein and stage III of silver vein are estimated as T ; $294^{\circ}$ to $318^{\circ}C$, $fs_2\;10^{-9.4}$ to $10^{-10.1}$ atm. and T; $240^{\circ}$ to $279^{\circ}C$, $fs_2;10^{-11.1}$ to $10^{-17.3}$ atm. respectively. Pressure condition during gold vein formation estimated from data of ore mineralogy and fluid inclusion range 500 to 750 bar.

Dependence of magnetoresistance on the thickness of Cu, type and thickness of buffer layer, and the stacking number of multilayer in the form buffer /$[Co(17{\AA}/Cu(t{\AA})]_{20}$ were investigated. To evaluate effect of annealing on this samples, X-ray diffraction analysis, vibrating sample magnetometer analysis, and magnetoresistance measurement (4-probe method) were performed. The magnetoresistance ratio exhibits a maximum of 21% for the multilayer with Cu thickness of 24$\AA$ and Fe buffer layer thickness of 50$\AA$. Deposition of film under low base pressure induces in increase magnetoresistance ratio by preventing oxidation. The multilayer annealed below 30$0^{\circ}C$ temperature allowed larger textured grain without loss in the periodicity. Magnetoresistance ratios of the multilayer with Cu thickness of 24$\AA$ and 36$\AA$ were increased due to the increase in the antiferromagnetically coupled fraction after annealing.
