Single crystal $CdGa_2Se_4$ layers were grown on a thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate at $420^{\circ}C$ with the hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system by evaporating the polycrystal source of $CdGa_2Se_4$ at $630^{\circ}C$. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of single crystal $CdGa_2Se_4$ thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.27{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3},\;345cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The photocurrent and the absorption spectra of $CdGa_2Se_4/SI$(Semi-Insulated) GaAs(100) are measured ranging from 293 K to 10 K. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $CdGa_2Se_4$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation $E_g(T)=2.6400eV-(7.721{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/(T+399K)$. Using the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model, the crystal field energy(${\Delta}cr$) and the spin-orbit splitting energy(${\Delta}so$) far the valence band of the $CdGa_2Se_4$ have been estimated to be 106.5 meV and 418.9 meV at 10 K, respectively. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_{1^-},\;B_{1^-},\;and\;C_{11}-exciton$ peaks.

The objective of this study was to set the optimal extraction condition of flavonoids from onion peels as a by-product generated from the onion industry without suitable processing. Four independent variables, affecting extraction conditions, which are solvent concentration ($X_1$), extraction temperature ($X_2$), pH of the solvent ($X_3$), and solvent ratio to onion peel ($X_4$) were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM). A model equation obtained from RSM is 0.772 of R-square and 0.278 of lack of fit (p>0.05) for the optimal extraction conditions. From the ridge analysis, the conditions flavoring the highest extraction were solvent concentration (v/v) of 70%, extraction temperature of $40^{\circ}C$, extraction solvent pH of 5.3, and a solvent ratio to onion peel ratio of 1:63 (w/v). The flavonoid content obtained under optimal conditions showed 302.63 mg/g, which is 1.12 times higher than the prediction value.

Let $a$ and $b$ be two even integers with $2{\leq}a<b$, and let k be a nonnegative integer. Let G be a graph of order $n$ with $n{\geq}\frac{(a+b-1)(a+b-2)+bk-2}{b}$. A graph G is called an ($a,b,k$)-critical graph if after deleting any $k$ vertices of G the remaining graph of G has an [$a,b$]-factor. In this paper, it is proved that G is an ($a,b,k$)-critical graph if $${\mid}N_G(X){\mid}&gt;\frac{(a-1)n+{\mid}X{\mid}+bk-2}{a+b-1}$$ for every non-empty independent subset X of V (G), and $${\delta}(G)>\frac{(a-1)n+a+b+bk-3}{a+b-1}$$. Furthermore, it is shown that the result in this paper is best possible in some sense.

The fibrous material fraction as a by-product from the commercial aloe vera gel processing was obtained and freeze dried. The physicochemical characteristics such as the proximate composition, crystalline/surface structures and several physical functionalities including the water holding capacity (WHC), swelling capacity (SW), oil holding capacity (OHC), emulsion/foam properties and viscosity properties of this powdered sample (100 mesh) were investigated and analyzed by comparison with commercial $\alpha$-cellulose as a reference sample. The total dietary fiber content of powdered sample was very high as much as 87.5%, and the insoluble dietary and soluble dietary fiber content ratios were 77.6 and 22.4%, respectively. The FT-IR spectrum of powdered sample showed a typical polysaccharide property and exhibited a x-ray diffraction pattern for cellulose III and IV like structure. SW (8.24${\pm}$0.15 mL/g), WHC(6.40${\pm}$0.19 g water/g solid) and OHC(10.32${\pm}$0.29 g oil/g solid) of freeze dried aloe cellulose were about 3.3, 1.4 and 2 times higher than those of commercial $\alpha$-cellulose, respectively. Aloe cellulose (~2%, w/v) alone had no foam capacity while improved the foam stability of protein solution (1% albumin+0.5% $CaCl_{2}$) by factor of 300%. Emulsion capacity of 2%(w/v) aloe cellulose was about 70% level of 0.5%(w/v) xanthan gum, but its emulsion stability was about 1.2 times higher than that of xanthan gum. Also, aloe cellulose containing CMC (carboxyl methyl cellulose) of 0.3%(w/v) showed a very good dispersity. Aloe cellulose dispersion of above 1%(w/v) exhibited higher pseudoplasticity and concentration dependence than those of $\alpha$-cellulose dispersion, indicating the viscosity properties for new potential usage such as an excellent thickening agent.

A vector field on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is called concircular if it satisfies ${\nabla}X^v={\mu}X$ for any vector X tangent to M, where ${\nabla}$ is the Levi-Civita connection and ${\mu}$ is a non-trivial function on M. A smooth vector field ${\xi}$ on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to define a Ricci soliton if it satisfies the following Ricci soliton equation: $$\frac{1}{2}L_{\xi}g+Ric={\lambda}g$$, where $L_{\xi}g$ is the Lie-derivative of the metric tensor g with respect to ${\xi}$, Ric is the Ricci tensor of (M, g) and ${\lambda}$ is a constant. A Ricci soliton (M, g, ${\xi}$, ${\lambda}$) on a Riemannian manifold (M, g) is said to have concircular potential field if its potential field is a concircular vector field. In the first part of this paper we determine Riemannian manifolds which admit a concircular vector field. In the second part we classify Ricci solitons with concircular potential field. In the last part we prove some important properties of Ricci solitons on submanifolds of a Riemannian manifold equipped with a concircular vector field.

Extracellular adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) affects the function of many tissues and cells. To confirm the biological activity of ATP on human myeloid leukemic cells, F-36P and HL-60, cells were treated with a variety of concentrations of ATP. The stimulation with extracellular ATP induced the arrest of cell proliferation and cell death. from the analysis of Annexin-V staining and caspase activity by flow cytometry. The Annexin-V positive cells in both cell lines were dramatically increased following ATP stimulation. The expression of P2 purinergic receptor genes was confirmed, such as P2X1, P2X4, P2X5, P2X7 and P2Y1, P2Y2, P2Y4, P2Y5, P2Y6, P2Y11 in both leukemic cell lines. Interestingly, ATP induced intracellular calcium flux in HL-60 cells but not in F-36P cells, as determined by Fluo-3 AM staining. Cell cycle analysis revealed that ATP treatment arrested both F-36P and HL-60 cells at G1/G0. Taken together, these data showed that extracellular ATP via P2 receptor genes was involved in the cell proliferation and survival in human myeloid leukemic cells, HL-60 and F-36P cells by the induction of apoptosis and control of cell cycle. Our data suggest that treatment with extracellular nucleotides may be a novel and powerful therapeutic avenue for myeloid leukemic disease.

We have investigated the L $i_{1+x}$M $n_2$ $O_4$system as a cathode material for lithium rechargeable batteries. To improve the cycle performance of spinel LiM $n_2$ $O_4$ as the cathode of 4V class lithium secondary batteries, spinel phase L $i_{1+x}$M $n_2$ $O_4$(x=0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075) was prepared at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 48h. The preparation of L $i_{1+x}$M $n_2$ $O_4$ from L $i_2$ $O_3$ and Mn $O_2$ under air is studied. The compounds were synthesized by using solid-state reaction. Structural refinements were carried out with a Rietveld-refinement program. Electrochemical properties were examined using the Li/L $i_{1+x}$M $n_2$ $O_4$ cells. The capacity of L $i_{1+x}$M $n_2$ $O_4$ decreases with increases lithium content, while the cycle life improves. The initial discharge capacity are 118mAh/g and 116mAh/g for LiM $n_2$ $O_4$ decreases with increases lithium content, while the cycle life improves. The initial discharge capacity are 118mAh/g and 116mAh/g for LiM $n_2$ $O_4$ and L $i_{1.025}$M $n_2$ $O_4$, respectively.pectively.

The perovskite system $(Ba^{2+}{_{1-x}}La^{3+}{_x})Fe^{3+}{_{1-t}}Fe^{4+}{_t}O_{3-y}$ (y = (1 - x --t)/2) having a composition of x = 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 showedean increase in $Fe^{4+}$ mole ratios with an increase in oxygen partial pressure ($N_2{\rightarrow}air{\rightarrow}O_2$), and with an increasefin s, the $Fe^{3+}$ quantity decreased and oxygen content (3-y value) increased. For each N sampls heat-treated in $N_2$ gas, a considerable weight gain, i.e.g a steadynincrease if oxygen content, was observed in the TGA data on the cooling process. The conductivity values at a constant temperature were in the order of $N_2$$O_2$; the respective log ${\sigma}$ values (${\Omega}^{-1}{\cdot}cm^{-1}$) at 323 K of the BL0 sample were -5.75 (BL0-N), -3.39 (BL0-A), and -0.53 (BL0-O). The mixed valencies of $Fe^{3+}$ and $Fe^{4+}$ ions in each sample were also confirmed by both the oxidation curve above 350 mV and the cathodic reduction curve below 200 mV from cyclic voltammetry.
