The frequency response on the tip-sample distance in scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) that is combined with an electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) is described. The oscillation frequency of the EQCM increases rapidly when the SECM tip is very close to the substrate electrode surface. This frequency increase is reproducible regardless of the current feedback in SECM, which is attributed to the stress caused by the tip pressing the quartz crystal. It is useful to calibrate the tip-sample distance with respect to the frequency change when a combined system of SECM and EQCM (SECM-EQCM) is used. This method could be applied to several cases such as rigid metal electrode and non-conducting or partially conducting polymer coating prepared on the quartz crystal regardless of the feedback current.

To elucidate the composition of extractive nitrogenous components in the fresh Capsosiphons fulvescens cultured off the southern coast of Korea, and to determine the monthly variation of these nitrogenous components, extract samples collected monthly from December to March at Jangheung-gun, Jeonnam Province were analyzed for total nitrogen, free and combined amino acids, ATP and related compounds, betaines, trimethylamine oxide (TMAO) and trimethylamine (TMA). The content of extractive nitrogen was 1,090~1,233 mg/100 g on dry basis. The number of 21~25 ninhydrin-positive substances was detected in the analysis of free amino acids, and their total amount was 3,710~4,788 mg/100 g on dry basis. Among them, free proline, asparagine, glutamic acid, alanine, taurine and glutamine were found to be abundant. The combined amino acids amounted to 1,573~2,121 mg/100 g in total and the total amount of ATP and related compound was 33.8~84.0 mg/100 g ($1.06{\sim}2.46\;{\mu}mol/g$) on dry basis. Betaine, glycinebetaine, $\beta$-alaninebetaine, $\gamma$-butyrobetaine, homarine and trigonelline were detected in most of samples. Levels of free and combined amino acids, ATP and related compounds fluctuated from sample to sample, with their contents higher in December and January and lower in March.

Nayak(1994) suggested a combined randomized response model that combined the Warner's model and greenberg et al.'s model. In this paper we extend Nayak's model to two sample case of including unknown unrelated character also propose some combined models such W-M model and G-M model that modify the Nayak's model. We suggest the efficiency conditions of our models for Nayak's model, also find the efficiency condition of G-M model for the W-M model.

The objective of this study was to access the effects of sensory and physical properties of Beandaeduk on 7 different combination methods (three were combined with mung bean and different proportions of water; four were combined with mung bean and various cereals with constant water), and 3 storage periods (0, 1 and 3 weeks at $-18^{\circ}C$). This experiment was consisted of sensory evaluation I (appearance, texture, taste, flavor and overall preference), II (color, moisture, volume, hardness, elasticity, viscosity and ratio materials, off-flavor and oder) and physical analysis of each sample, and questionaire survey of Beandaeduk. In sensory evaluation I except flavor, significant differences (p<0.05) were found among different combination methods of sample. Also significant differences (p<0.05) were found in sample for storage periods, except appearance. In sensory evaluation II, only moisture and oder of samples were significantly different (p<0.05) for storage periods, and there were significant differences (p<0.05) in samples among different combination methods, except elasicity. Stepwise regression for storage periods in sensory I showed that texture and taste were important factors in overall preference of sample. In the questionaire survey, preference and adding materials of Beandaeduk were different according to province. Half of respondents preferred to get instant Beandaeduk and instant mung bean powder.

Measurement uncertainty could play an important role in the assessment of test results in laboratories and industries. We investigated measurement uncertainties possibly included in determination of flubendazole, a benzimidazole anthelmintic, in pork by HPLC. The concentration of flubendazole was 62.69 ng/g in a sample of pork. Uncertainty was estimated in the analytical procedure of flubendazole. A model equation was made for determination of flubendazole in pork. The four uncertainty components such as weight of sample, volume of sample, calibration curve, and recovery were selected to estimate measurement uncertainties. Standard uncertainty was calculated for each component and all the standard uncertainties were combined. The combined standard uncertainty was expanded to a sample population as an expanded uncertainty. The expanded uncertainty was calculated using k value on Student's t-table and effective degrees of freedom from Welch-Satterthwaite formula. The expanded uncertainty was calculated as 3.45 with the combined standard uncertainty, 1.584 6 and the k value, 2.18. The final expression can be ($62.69{\pm}3.45$) ng/g (confidence level 95%, k = 2.18). The uncertainty value might be estimated differently depending on the selection of the uncertainty components. It is difficult to estimate all the uncertainty factors. Therefore, it is better to take several big effecting components instead of many small effecting components.

Pretreatment of cellulosic biomass is necessary before enzymatic saccharification and fermentation. Extrusion is a well established process in food industries and it can be used as a physicochemical treatment method for cellulosic biomass. Aqueous ammonia soaking treatment at mild temperatures ranging from 60 to $80^{\circ}C$ for longer reaction times has been used to preserve most of the cellulose and hemicellulose in the biomass. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of extrusion treatment on aqueous ammonia soaking method. Extrusion was performed with miscanthus sample conditioned to 2mm of particle size and 20% of moisture content at $200^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature and 175rpm of screw speed. And then aqueous ammonia soaking was performed with 15%(w/w) ammonia solution at $60^{\circ}C$ for 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 hours on the extruded and raw miscanthus samples respectively. In the combined extrusion-soaking treatment, most compositions removal occurred within 1~2 hours and on a basis of 1 hour soaking treatment values, cellulose was recovered about 85% and other compositions, including hemicellulose, are removed about 50% from extruded miscanthus sample. The combined extrusion-soaking treated and soaking only treated samples were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis using cellulase and ${\beta}$-glucosidase. The enzymatic digestibility value of combined extrusion-2 hours soaking treated sample was comparable to 12 hours soaking only treated sample. It means that extrusion treatment can shorten the conventional long reaction time of aqueous ammonia soaking. The findings suggest that the combination of extrusion and soaking is a promising pretreatment method to solve both problems for no lignin removal of extrusion and long reaction time of aqueous ammonia soaking.

A double sampling procedure with zero acceptance number for the first sample whose operating characteristic closely matches that of a given single sampling plan and whose combined sample size does not exceed that of the given single sampling plan is proposed. The proposed double sampling plans corresponding to the MIL-STD-105D plans are tabulated and it is found that their ASN's are considerably smaller than those of corresponding MIL-STD-105D single or double sampling plans.

이 논문의 연구목적은 운동형태에 따라 중년여성의 신체구성과 혈중지질에 미치는 영향을 규명하기 위한 것이다. 연구대상은 40 50대 중년여성으로 유산소운동집단 8명, 복합트레이닝집단 8명 두 그룹으로 나누었으며, 12주간의 운동프로그램을 실시하였다. 운동강도는 주4회, 1회 70~90분, HRmax 60%~75%, 1RM 60%~80%로 점진적으로 증가시켰다. 자료처리는 Windows 용 SPSS ver. 21.0 통계 프로그램을 사용하여 평균과 표준편차 등을 산출하고, 비모수통계분석 방법인 윌콕슨 부호순위검정과 윌콕슨 순위합검정을 통해 그룹별 사전-사후 평균차와 변화량에 대한 그룹간 차이를 검정하였다. 연구결과를 살펴보면, 먼저 각 집단별 사전-사후 평균차에서는 복합운동 집단의 BMI, 체지방량, 그리고 중성지방에서만 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 또한 변인별 사전-사후 변화량에 대한 두 집단간의 차이 검정에서는 체지방량에서만 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 나타났다. 부가적으로 통계적 유의성은 검증되지 않았지만 각 별인별 사전-사후 평균 변화에 대한 기술통계를 살펴보면 복합운동이 유산소운동에 비해 상대적으로 더 효과적일 수 있다는 것을 알 수 있다.

Benthic macroinvertebrates are widely used as biological indicators for assessing the integrity of aquatic ecosystem. However, sampling has usually been done with fixed sample size due to time consuming and costly process. This study was conducted to find out the influence of sample size on the biological indices (H' DI, R1, J, EPT, ESB and BMI) of benthic macroinvertebrates. The 15 replicate samples were quantitatively collected from each 3 different site of two mountain streams in May, 2011. With the replicate data, we combined the abundance of each species with all the possible combinations of the sample size. Along with the increase of sample size, the number of species increased continuously and did not converge. BMI showed little difference whereas other biological indices increased or decreased.

This paper presents a new combined forecasting method that is guided by the soft set theory (CFBSS) to predict business failures with different sample sizes. The proposed method combines both qualitative analysis and quantitative analysis to improve forecasting performance. We considered an expert system (ES), logistic regression (LR), and support vector machine (SVM) as forecasting components whose weights are determined by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The proposed procedure was applied to real data sets from Chinese listed firms. For performance comparison, single ES, LR, and SVM methods, the combined forecasting method based on equal weights (CFBEWs), the combined forecasting method based on neural networks (CFBNNs), and the combined forecasting method based on rough sets and the D-S theory (CFBRSDS) were also included in the empirical experiment. CFBSS obtains the highest forecasting accuracy and the second-best forecasting stability. The empirical results demonstrate the superior forecasting performance of our method in terms of accuracy and stability.
