  • The effect of exogenous oxygen on hydrogen photoproduction was examined in the synchronously grown cells of marine Synechococcus sp. Miami BG 043511 under conditions of high cell density (0.6-0.8 mg chl-${\alpha}$ $ml^{-1}$) and high light intensity (1000 ${\mu}$E $m^{-2}$ $s^{-1}$). Hydrogen evolution after 20-h incubation did not decline under the initial oxygen concentrations up to 20%, but declined by half under 34% oxygen. 50% and 100% oxygen gas phase did not completely inhibit the hydrogen photoproduction during 40-h incubations. After 2-day pretreatment under 100% exogenous oxygen the hydrogen photoproduction capabilities were not irreversibly inhibited, which was demonstrated in the subsequent 9-day incubation under initial 0, 50 and even under 100% oxygen gas phase. This strain could be useful for developing a hydrogen photoproduction system under atmospheric oxygen concentration.

  • For proton pencil beam scanning (PBS) technology, the accuracy of the dose distribution in a patient is sensitive to the properties of the incident beam. However, mechanical deformation of the proton therapy facility may occur, and this could be an important factor affecting the proton dose distribution in patients. In this paper, we investigated the effect of deformation on an SC200 proton facility's beam isocenter properties. First, mechanical deformation of the PBS nozzle, L-shape plate, and gantry were simulated using a Finite Element code, ANSYS. Then, the impact of the mechanical deformation on the beam's isocenter properties was evaluated using empirical formulas. In addition, we considered the simplest case that could affect the properties of the incident beam (i.e. if only the bending magnet (BG3) has an error in its mounting alignment), and the effect of the beam optics offset on the isocenter characteristics was evaluated. The results showed that the deformation of the beam position in the X and Y direction was less than 0.27 mm, which meets the structural design requirements. Compared to the mechanical deformation of the L-shape plate, the deformation of the gantry had more influence on the beam's isocenter properties. When the error in the mounting alignment of the BG3 is equal to or more than 0.3 mm, the beam deformation at the isocenter exceeds the maximum accepted deformation limits. Generally speaking, for the current design of the SC200 scanning beam delivery system, the effects of mechanical deformation meet the maximum accepted beam deformation limits. In order to further study the effect of the incident beam optics on the isocenter properties, a fine-scale Monte Carlo model including factors relating to the PBS nozzle and the BG3 should be developed in future research.

  • In order to construct an artificial cultivation of Nostoc flagelliforme on solid medium, we attempted to assess the viability of approaches, which utilized either BG-11 agar or sand medium using both sterile and non-sterile algal segments. In the trial in which the BG -11 agar medium was inoculated with the non-sterile algal segments, the algae exhibited the rapid growth in the initial 4 days of cultivation. However, after 4 days of cultivation, the growth rate of the algae slowed, and the algal growth was completely stopped by 7 days of cultivation. When the BG -11 medium was inoculated with the sterile algal segments, the algae exhibited the rapid growth for a longer period of 8 days, reaching a length of 24.9 mm. The growth rate during this period was measured to be $24.5\%$. After the 8 days of cultivation, the algal growth rate began to slow and had almost stopped by the 13 days of cultivation. On the other hand, when the sterile algal segments were inoculated onto a sand plate, the algal segments decomposed, reaching total decomposition after 11 days of cultivation. By way of contrast, the desiccation treatment samples continued to grow for 14 days of cultivation. After 14 days of cultivation, the algae achieved a length of 26.1 mm, with a growth rate of $30.6\%$. Our results indicate that periodic desiccation may constitute an effective strategy for the prevention of algal decomposition.

  • Protein-energy malnutrition is regarded as one of the public health problems in developing countries as a result of poor feeding practices due to poverty. This study, therefore, aimed at evaluating nutritional quality of a potential weaning food formulated from locally available food materials. The cooking banana fruit(CB) and bambara groundnut seeds(BG) were purchased from local market in Akure, Ondo State, Nigeria. The CB and BG were processed into flours, mixed in ratios of 90:10, 80:20, 70:30 and 60:40 and subjected into proximate, sensory and biochemical analyses using standard procedures. Nutrend(a commercial formula) and ogi(corn gruel, a traditional weaning food) were used as control. The nutritient composition(g/100 g) of the food samples were ranged as follows: moisture 2.94-6.94, protein 7.02-16.0, ash 1.76-2.99, fat 0.76-8.45, fibre 1.52-3.75, carbohydrate 63.84-88.43 and energy 1569.8-1665.7 kcal. The biological value(BV), net protein retention(NPR), protein efficiency ratio(PER) and feed efficiency ratio(FER) of the experimental food samples were significantly(p<0.05) lower than nutrend, but higher than ogi. The haematological variables of rats fed with formulated food samples, commercial formula(nutrend) and traditional weaning food(ogi) were not significantly(p>0.05) influenced by the dietary treatment. However, the values obtained for red blood cell(RBC), white blood cell(WBC), pack cell volume(PCV) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR) were higher in the experimental food samples than the commercial food. The growth rate of animals fed with experimental food samples were lower than those fed with the nutrend, but higher than those fed with ogi. In conclusion, the nutritional quality of CB and fermented BG mix of 60:40 ratio was better than ogi; and comparable to the nutrend. This implies that it can be used to replace low quality traditional weaning food and the expensive commercial weaning formula.

  • 본 연구의 목적은 비외과적 치주치료시에 부가적으로 사용하기 위해 개발한 테트라싸이클린 젤의 효과를 임상지수, 치은 열구액양 및 치은열구액내 효소활성도 측정을 통해 평가함에 있다. 치주낭 깊이가 4mm 이상 6mm이하인 구치가 편악당 적어도 2개 이상 존재하는 중등도 치주염에 이환된 환자 23명을 선택하여, 한 편악에서는 치근활택술 만을 시행하였고, 다른 한 편악에는 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 치은연하로 주입한 뒤 치근면 처리하였다. 사용된 임상검사 지수는 치태지수, 치은지수, 치주낭 깊이, 치은부착 상실도 및 탐침시 출혈로, 각각 치료시작 전과 치료 후 4, 12주에 검사하였으며, 치은열구액내 효소활성도 검사를 위해 치은열구액을 치료시작 전과 치료 후 1, 2, 4, 12주에 각각 채취하고 치은열구액 양을 조사한 뒤 Lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)와 Beta-glucuronidase(BG)의 활성도를 측정하였고, 효소활성도는 LDH는 340nm에서, BG는 550nm에서 각각 흡광도를 조사 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 임상지수를 측정 비교한 결과 치근활택술 만으로 치료한 군과 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군 모두에서 임상적으로 치은건강의 현저한 향상을 관찰할 수 있었으나, 통계상 두 군간의 유의성있는 차이는 발견되지 않았다. 2. 치은열구액 양은 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군이 치근활택술만 시행한 군보다 치료 후 2주와 4주에 유의성 있게 감소하였다. 3. LDH와 BG 효소 활성도는 두 군 모두 현저히 감소하였고, 비록 통계학적인 유의성은 관찰할 수 없었으나 치근활택술 후 테트라싸이클린 젤을 병용한 군에서 감소량이 더 크게 나타났다.

  • 무요소기법이 공통적으로 내재하고 있는 수치적분의 부정확성을 해결하기 위해, 페트로프-갤러킨 자연요소법이라 불리는 향상된 자연요소법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 라플라스 기저함수를 시도 형상함수로 사용하는 반면, 시험 형상함수로서 델라우니 삼각형이 지지영역이 되는 함수를 새롭게 정의한다. 이러한 접근은 통상적인 적분영역과 적분함수 지지영역간의 불일치를 제거하게 하며, 이는 적용이 편리할 뿐만 아니라 수치적분의 정확성을 보장한다 본 논문에서는 2차윈 선형 탄성의 대표적인 검증문제를 통하여 제안된 방법의 타당성을 검증한다. 비교를 위해 기존의 부브노프-갤러킨 자연요소법과 일정 변형률 유한요소법을 이용한 해석을 동시에 수행한다. 조각 시험과 수렴율 평가를 통해 제안된 기법의 우수성을 확인할 수 있다.

  • 본 논문에서는 radar detector에 사용 가능한 국부 발진단용 소형화된 L 모양 shorted pin patch를 제안하였다. Shorted pin patch는 일반적인 구형 patch가 가지는 open-open 공진 형태가 아닌 short-open 공진 형태를 가지고 작동한다. L모양의 shorted pin 배열은 기본 모드(X-band), $2^{nd}\;and\;3^{rd}$ 모드에서 ${\lambda}/4$$3{\lambda}/4$의 공진 구조를 가지게 되어 일반적인 구정 patch보다 소형화가 가능하다 최적화된 L 모양 소정 shorted pin patch는 국부 발진단의 발진 주파수 대역(X, K and Ka band)에서 공진이 일어나 향상된 반사 손실을 가지게 되고, 이에 따라 기존 대비 향상된 radar detector의 감도는 얻을 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of garlic(Allium sativum L.) extracts with extraction conditions on antioxidant and anticancer activity. The extracts prepared for garlic by hot temperature extraction (HG), low temperature extraction (LG), UMPM extraction (UG), fermentation (FG) and black garlic hot temperature (BG) method. Content of total polyphenol compound was the BG higher than other extracts. The EDA (electron donating ability) and SOD-like activity was increased in dose-dependent manners, and the activity of BG and UM was significantly higher than LG and FG. We examined cytotoxicity, nitric oxide production of Raw 264.7 cell and inhibition of HT 1080 cell by MTT assay. All extracts does not have any toxic effects in macrophages(Raw 264.7). And UG inhibited the production of nitrite in Raw 264.7 cells activated with LPS. The antitumor effects of LG and UG on HT 1080 cell was indicated a significantly inhibition activity. These results suggested that UG (UMPM extraction of garlic) have activities of antioxidant, anticancer effects.
