In the production of recombinant protein using E. coli, phage lysogen system can be usefully applied for simultaneously achieving protein production at high cell concentration and recovery by cell disruption in the same bioreactor. A major drawback of this system is that the intracellular product and complex broth components are mixed together in culture broth and hence purification efficiency is reduced. With the E. coli double-lysogen system, the expanded bed adsorption is very useful because the pretreatment processes in a routine bioseparation process can be done in a single column operation, and therefore may contribute towards lowering the operating cost of overall recovery/purification process. In the operation of EBA, it has been observed that the change in broth feed volume does not influence much the protein recovery in a tested range. The amount of protein adsorption per mL of resin was increased from $3.44{\times}106unit to 5.28{\times}106unit$ by doubling the column length. By two-fold increase of the column diameter, the ratio of protein concentration in eluent to that in feed was increased from 0.8 to 2.1. It is concluded from the present investigation that the increase of column length and diameter is necessary to enhance the protein adsorption amount per volume of resin and protein concentration in the eluent. The development of resins with various physical properties will be necessary for more extensive application of EBA.

It has been well known the sloshing pressure has complex shape and various patterns. The pattern of sloshing pressure is variously characterized by the pressure amplitude, duration time and skewness. The structural response induced by the sloshing pressure is also affected by the pattern of sloshing pressure and the type of structural members. In order to understand the structural response by the perspective view of categorized pattern, it is more efficient to make simple sloshing pressure pattern than to reflect the complex pressure history. In this study, the sloshing pressures obtained by the small scale model test are simplified with respect to their duration and skewness. Dynamic analyses of Mark-III LNG CCS are then parametrically performed with the consideration of various types of sloshing impact. Meanwhile, the failure pressures given the duration and skewness are investigated after parametric calculations are conducted to investigate the effect of pressure parameters on the structural response.

The present study aimed to investigate the osteogenic potentials of differentiated osteoblast-like cells (DOCs) induced from bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on ${\beta}-tricalcium$ phosphate (${\beta}-TCP$) with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP-2) in vitro. Osteoblast differentiation was induced in confluent cultures by adding 100 nM dexamethasone, 10 mM ${\beta}$-glycerophosphate, 50 mM L-ascorbic acid. The Alizarin red S staining and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were perfomed to examine the mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteocalcin (OCN), receptor activator for nuclear factor ${\kappa}B$ ligand (RANKL), runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), collagen-Ⅰ (COL-Ⅰ). There were no significant differences in the osteogenic potentials of DOCs induced from MSCs on ${\beta}-TCP(+/-)$. According to the incubation period, there were significant increasing of Alizadin red S staining in the induction 3 weeks. The mRNA expression of ALP, RUNX2, and RANKL were higher in DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(-)$ than DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(+)$. According to rhBMP-2 concentrations, the mRNA expression of BSP was significantly increased in DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(+)$ compared to that of DOCs/${\beta}-TCP(-)$ on rhBMP 10 ng/ml. Our study presented the ${\beta}-TCP$ will have the possibility that calcium phosphate directly affect the osteoblastic differentiation of the bone marrowderived MSCs.

For the regeneration of periodontal tissues, the microenvironment for new attachment of connective tissue fibers should be provided, At this point of view, cementum formation in root surface plays a key role for this new attachment. This study was performed to figure out which factor promotes differentiation of cementoblast Considering anatomical structure of tooth, we selected the cells which may affect the differentiation of cementoblast - Ameloblast, OD11&MDPC23 for odontoblasts, NIH3T3 for fibroblsts and MG63 for osteoblasts. And OCCM30 was selected for cementoblast cell line. Then, the cell lines were cultured respectively and transferred the conditioned media to OCCM30. To evaluate the result, Alizarin red S stain was proceeded for evaluation of mineralization. The subjected mRNA genes are bone sialoprotein(BSP), alkaline phosphate(ALP) , osteocalcin(OC), type I collagen(Col I), osteonectin(SPARC ; secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine). Expression of the gene were analysed by RT-PCR, The results were as follows: 1. For alizarin red S staining, control OCCM30 didn't show any mineralized red nodules until 14 days. But red nodules started to appear from about 4 days in MDPC-OCCM30 & OD11-OCCM30. 2. For results of RT-PCR, ESP mRNAs of control-OCCM30 and others were expressed from 14 days, but in MDPC23-OCCM30 & OD11-OCCM30 from 4 days. Like this, the gene expression of MDPC23-OCCM30 & OD11-OCCM30 were detected much earlier than others. 3. For confirmation of odontoblast effect on cementoblast, conditioned media of osteoblasts(MG63) which is mineralized by producing matrix vesicles didn't affect on the mineralized nodule formation of cementoblasts(OCCM30). This suggest the possibility that cementoblast mineralization is regulated by specific factor in dentin matrix protein rather than matrix vesicles. Therefore, we proved that the dentin/odontoblast promotes differentiation/mineralization of cementoblasts. This new approach might hole promise as diverse possibilities for the regeneration of tissues after periodontal disease.

The usage status of trousers as school uniform for girl's middle and high school students in Seoul and the perception on trousers as school uniform were analyzed. Students who wore 'skirts only' were the greatest and students who wore 'trousers only' were higher in the case of winter uniform than in summer uniform. The most popular reason to wear skirts was 'because most of their fellow students wore skirts' in both winter and summer. The main reason for wearing trousers was 'because it was easy to cope with changes in temperature' in winter and 'because it allowed more comfortable movements' in summer. Students who wore trousers were generally satisfied with wearing trousers as school uniforms. However, they showed a low degree of satisfaction about design and color of trousers. The students preferred slim and straight trousers, and black col or with beige and blue being the next color. Students in general had low level of recognition for the need to wear trousers. Students perceived trousers as being cold-proof and comfortable for physical activities. But they also perceived that trousers were not suitable for improving their appearances and expressing their characteristics. Especially, the students who wore trousers tended to think that trousers reduced their cares for their personal attire and that trousers were good for wearing after school, but the students who did not wear trousers were found to think contrary.

The effect of heat treatment conditions on the properties of tungsten(W) embolization coils has been evaluated. The W embolization coils were fabricated by coiling the primary W coil with a diameter of 30.mm on a alumina rod mandrel with a diameter of 2.92mm. The secondary coils were then heat treated at 475$^{\circ}C$and 600$^{\circ}C$ for various heat treatment time ranging from 5 minutes to 36hours. The pitch distance, diameter and shape retention capability of the W embolization coils were characterized after the heat treatment. The pitch distance of the W embolization coils increased with the heat treatment time. The diameter of W emboliazation coils decreased continuously with heat treatment time. The shape retention capability of the W embolization coils increased with the heat treatment time due to an increase in elasticity by formation of tungsten oxide film on W coil surface during the heat treatment. The heat treatment condition of W embolization Col at 600$^{\circ}C$ for 20 minute was considered desirable based on the optimization of the shape retention capability, pitch distance and secondary coil diameter after heat treatment.

Tuberculosis is the leading infectious disease in the world. It is urgent to develop new vaccine and treating drugs. Besides vaccines, we want to know the effects of regular swim training on TB infection in the mouse model. This study was designed to examine the effects of regular swim training on lung and spleen TB counts and $INF-\gamma$ activity in the trained mice at different temperature. The trained mice underwent a 10-wk endurance swim training (5 times/wk) in water at $29\~33^{\circ}C$ (WWG) and $21\~23^{\circ}C$(CWG) for 60 min. And they were divided into 3 groups according to the regular swim training (CG; control, WWG; warm water group, and CWG; cold water group). Mice were challenged by aerosol infection with M. tuberculosis H37Rv using an inhalation device (Glas-Col, Terre Haute, Ind.) calibrated to deliver bacteria into lungs. Three weeks after immunization, the mice were challenged. Four weeks after challenge, the mice were sacrificed and the numbers of viable bacteria in lung and spleen were determined by plating serial dilution of whole organ homogenates on nutrient Middlebrook 7H11 agar (Difco, Detroit, MI). Colonies were counted after four weeks incubation at $37^{\circ}C$. All data were expressed as mean, standard deviation by using SPSS package program (win 10.0). The result through the statistical analysis of this data were summarized as follows; In the weight changes, there were significant differences among CG, WWG, and CWG following the swim training at different temperature, and CWG was the lowest. In the change of $INF-\gamma$ following the swim training, there were significant differences (p<.05) among CG, WWG, and CWG after stimulated with media and CFP. In MTB counts, there were significant differences (p<.05) between CG and WWG in the lung. And also there were significant differences (p<.05) among CG, WWG, and CWG. These results suggest that regular swim training suppress Th1 immune response caused by decreased $INF-\gamma$ level in the WWG, Also For the WWG, highly increased level of TB counts appear in the lung and spleen compare to CG.

The recent ABB/CE(Asea Brown Boveri Combustion Engineering) type pressurized oater reactor-s have the on-line monitoring system, i.e., the COLSS(core operating limit supervisory system), to prevent the specified acceptable fuel design limits from being violated during normal operation and anticipated operational occurrences. One of the main functions of COLSS is the on-line monitoring of the DNB(departure from nucleate boiling) overpower margin by calculating the MDNBR(mini-mum DNB ratio) for the measured operating condition at every second. The CETOP-D model, used in the MDNBR calculation of COLSS, is benchmarked conservatively against the TORC mod-el using an inlet flow factor of hot assembly in CETOP-D as an adjustment factor for TORC. In this study, a technique to optimize the CETOP-D inlet flow factor has been developed by elim-inating the excessive conservatism in the ABB/CE's. A correlation is introduced to account for the actual variation of the CETOP-D inlet flow factor within the core operating limits. This technique was applied to the core operating range of the YongGwang Units 3&4 Cycle 1, which results in the increase of 2％ in the DNB overpower margin at the normal operating condition, compared with that from the ABB/CE method.

Energy transfer by free convection arises in many engineering applications, such as a hot steam radiator for heating a room, refrigeration coils, electric transformers, heating elements and electronic equipments. Generally unsteady natural convection flow in a horizontal channel with arbitrary wall temperatures and the mathematical and physical basis of convection transport has been considered in general. A physically meaningful exact solution of the problem has been obtained in a closed form by the application of the standard finite sine transform technique. Influences of the governing parameters, the Prandtl number and the Rayleigh number, to bring the flow and heat transfer to final steady states have been discussed separately. For constant values of the arbitray wall temperatures and of the function, determining the average axial velocity, the final steady state is approached in different times respectively for the cases when the Prandtl number Pr>1 and Pr<1. It is also seen that the function, representing the axial temperature gradient, is influenced by none of the governing parameters : but the steady state flow is influenced only by the Rayleigh number. There are, of course, many applications. Free convection strongly influences heat transfer from pipes and transmission lines, as well as from various electronic devices. It is also relevant to the environmental sciences, where it is responsible for oceanic and atmospheric motions, as well as related heat transfer processes.
