Recent research has shown that quadrupole noise has a significant influence on the overall characteristics of flow-induced noise and on the performance of underwater appendages such as sonar domes. However, advanced research generally uses the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings analogy without considering the quadrupole source to reduce computational cost. In this study, flow-induced noise is predicted by using an LES turbulence model and a developed formulation, called the formulation Q1As method to properly take into account the quadrupole source. The noise around a circular cylinder in an underwater environment is examined for two cases with different velocities. The results from the method are compared to those obtained from the experiments and the permeable FW-H method. The results are in good agreement with the experimental data, with a difference of less than 1 dB, which indicates that the formulation Q1As method is suitable for use in predicting quadrupole noise around underwater appendages.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate relative bioavailability of the coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) in emulsion and three liposome formulations after a single oral administration (60 mg/kg) into rats. Emulsion formulation of CoQ10 was prepared by conventional method using Phospholipon 85G as an emulsifier, and three liposome formulations (neutral, anionic, and cationic) of CoQ10 were prepared by traditional lipid film hydration technique using Phospholipon 85G, cholesterol, and charge carrier lipids (1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane chloride salt for cationic liposome and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphate monosodium salt for anionic liposome). Mean particle size of all CoQ10-loaded liposome was less than a micron, and size distribution of the liposome population was homogeneous. Bioavailability of CoQ10 in emulsion was 1.5 to 2.6-fold greater than liposome formulations in terms of $AUC_{0-24\;h}$. $T_{max}$ was 3 h when administered as emulsion while it was greater than 6 h in liposome formulations. Notably, it was approximately 8 h in cationic liposome. $C_{max}$ was highest in emulsion and was significantly decreased when administered as liposome. Charged liposome showed even lower $C_{max}$ than neutral liposome, especially in cationic liposome. In conclusion, therefore, it is suggested that clinicians and patients consider bioavailability issue a primary concern when choosing a CoQ10 product, especially when very high plasma level is required such as in the treatment of heart failure and Parkinson's disease.

광 이량화 특성을 나타내는 1-methyl-4-[2-(4-diethylacetylphenyl)ethenyl] pridinium methosulfate(SbQ-A염)를 dimethyl sulfate, terephthalaldehyde mono-(diethyl acetal) 및 4-picoline을 이용하여 합성하였다. 합성된 SbQ-A염을 PVA와 반응시켜 동일(MW=77,000-79,000g/mol) 분자량을 가진 PVA내 SbQ의 함량이 다른 PVA-SbQ-H 시료 및 SbQ의 함량은 약 1.3mol%로 같으나 PVA의 분자량이 다른 PVA-SbQ-L들을 합성하였다. Gray scale(GS)법을 이용하여 측정된 PVA-SbQ 수용성 감광성 고분자의 상대감도는 PVA내 SbQ의 함량이 증가함에 따라 증가하였으며, PVA의 분자량이 낮아질수록 감소하였다. PVA-SbQ-H의 경우 SbQ 함량이 2.63mol%인 시료는 PVA에 ammonium dichromate가 혼합된 기존시료보다 90배 증가된 감도를 나타내었다. PVA-SbQ를 사용하여 형광체 슬러리를 제조하고 사진식각공정을 거쳐 형광체의 미세패턴을 형성하였다. 형광체 슬러리 제조시 양이온 계면활성제인 cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride를 첨가제로 사용하면 형광면의 해상도가 증가됨을 알았다.

The time-stepping boundary element method has been so far applied by the authors to transient heat conduction in isotropic solids as well as in orthotropic solids. In this paper, attempt is made to extend the method to 2-D transient heat conduction in arbitrarily anisotropic solids. The resulting boundary integral equation is discretized by means of the boundary element with quadratic interpolation. The final system of equations thus obtained is solved by advancing the time step from the given initial state to the final state. Through numerical compuation of a few examples the potential usefulness of the proposed method is demonstrated.

In order for formulation of rectal containing OMZ, the OMZ suppositories were prepared using water-soluble base, PEG 4000 base and oil-soluble base, Witepsol H 15. Chemical stability of OMZ in suppositories was increased when Witepsol H 15 was used as a suppository base and arginine was added as a stabilizer. The decomposition of OMZ in suppository bases followed the first-order kinetics and their rate constants were 0.11 day $^{1}(t_{1/2}$=/6.25 days) for Witepsol H 15 suppository and 0.48 day $^{1}(t_{1/2}$=/1.43 days) for PEG 4000 suppository, respectively. On the other hand, the decomposition rate constants of Witepsol suppository and PEG suppository stabilized with arginine were 3.89$\times$10$^{-3}$(t$_{1/2}$=171.1 days) and 8.76$\times$10$^{-3}$ day $^{1}(t_{1/2}=79.9 days), respectively. Shelf-lives of the Witepsol and PEG suppositories stabilized with arginine were t$_{90%}$=291.8 days and t$_{90%}$=282.1 days at $35^{\circ}C$ and 75% RH, respectively. The dissolution test of OMZ suppositories was performed by rotating dialysis cell(RDC) method and the release rate constant was calculated by the simplified Higuchi's equation, Q'=K' t$^{1/2}$. Dissolution of OMZ from suppositories was augmented as arginine was added, particle size of OMZ was reduced and a suitable surfactant such as SLS was added. RDC method was more appropriate and available than Paddle method to evaluate the dissolution rate of lipophilic-base suppositoies. Arginine was found to be a very useful exipient for the enhancement of stability and dissolution of OMZ in suppositories.

This article is dedicated to the pursuit of establishing a robust empirical relationship that allows for the estimation of in-situ modulus of deformations (E_m and G_m) within sedimentary rock slope masses through the utilization of Q_slope values. To achieve this significant objective, an expansive and thorough methodology is employed, encompassing a comprehensive field survey, meticulous sample collection, and rigorous laboratory testing. The study sources a total of 26 specimens from five distinct locations within the South Pars (known as Assalouyeh) region, ensuring a representative dataset for robust correlations. The results of this extensive analysis reveal compelling empirical connections between E_m, geomechanical characteristics of the rock mass, and the calculated Q_slope values. Specifically, these relationships are expressed as follows: E_m = 2.859 Q_slope + 4.628 (R² = 0.554), and G_m = 1.856 Q_slope + 3.008 (R² = 0.524). Moreover, the study unravels intriguing insights into the interplay between in-situ deformation moduli and the widely utilized Rock Mass Rating (RMR) computations, leading to the formulation of equations that facilitate predictions: RMR = 18.12 E_m0.460 (R² = 0.798) and RMR = 22.09 G_m0.460 (R² = 0.766). Beyond these correlations, the study delves into the intricate relationship between RMR and Rock Quality Designation (RQD) with Qslope values. The findings elucidate the following relationships: RMR = 34.05e^0.33Qslope (R² = 0.712) and RQD = 31.42e^0.549Qslope (R² = 0.902). Furthermore, leveraging the insights garnered from this comprehensive analysis, the study offers an empirically derived support system tailored to the distinct characteristics of discontinuous rock slopes, grounded firmly within the framework of the Q_slope methodology. This holistic approach contributes significantly to advancing the understanding of sedimentary rock slope stability and provides valuable tools for informed engineering decisions.

The supplementation of livestock feed with animal protein is a present cause for public concern, and plant protein shortages have become increasingly prominent in China. This conflict may be resolved by fully utilizing currently available sources of plant protein. We estimated the rumen degradability and the small intestinal digestibility of the amino acids (AA) in rapeseed meal (RSM), soybean meal (SBM), sunflower seed meal (SFM) and sesame meal (SSM) using the mobile nylon bag method to determine the absorbable AA content of these protein supplements as a guide towards dietary formulations for the dairy industry. Overall, this study aimed to utilize protein supplements effectively to guide dietary formulations to increase milk yield and save plant protein resources. To this end, we studied four cows with a permanent rumen fistula and duodenal T-shape fistula in a $4{\times}4$ Latin square experimental design. The results showed that the total small intestine absorbable amino acids and small intestine absorbable essential amino acids were higher in the SBM (26.34% and 13.11% dry matter [DM], respectively) than in the SFM (13.97% and 6.89% DM, respectively). The small intestine absorbable Lys contents of the SFM, SSM, RSM and SBM were 0.86%, 0.88%, 1.43%, and 2.12% (DM basis), respectively, and the absorbable Met contents of these meals were 0.28%, 1.03%, 0.52%, and 0.47% (DM basis), respectively. Among the examined food sources, the milk protein score of the SBM (0.181) was highest followed by those of the RSM (0.136), SSM (0.108) and SFM (0.106). The absorbable amino acid contents of the protein supplements accurately reflected protein availability, which is an important indicator of the balance of feed formulation. Therefore, a database detailing the absorbable AA should be established.

지자체 농업기술센터와 농과원에서 수집한 18개의 Bacillus subtilis 균주들이 보유하고 있는 기능성을 구명하기 위하여 항균활성을 비롯한 사이데로포아 생산, 질소고정능력, 인산가용화 능력 및 오옥신 생성능력을 조사하였다. B. subtilis 균주들은 대부분 입고병균(R. solani), 고추 탄저병균(C. acutatum), 채소류 시들음병균(F. oxysporum), 벼도열병균(M. oryzae), 고추 역병균(P. capsici)에 대하여 항균활성을 보였다. 대부분의 균주가 Siderophore와 오옥신 생성능력을 보였으며 질소고정능력도 함께 보유하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 인산가용화능은 조사한 Bacillus 속 균주 중 단 한 균주에서 활성을 보였다. 대부분의 B. subtilis 균주가 고추 흰가루병 억제효과를 보였으나, 균주 간에는 방제효과에 있어서 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. B. subtilis R2-1균주의 농업현장에서의 활용 가능성을 구명하기 위하여 2009년도에 강원도 화천의 유기재배농가에서 오이 흰가루병 방제용 미생물 농약으로 등록되어 사용되고 있는 '큐펙트'와 '탑시드'를 대조로 하여 방제효과를 검정하였다. 2009년도에 B. subtilis R2-1 처리시 방제효과는 37.7%로 '탑시드'(47.6%)보다는 낮았으나, '큐펙트'(25.7%)에 비해서는 높았다. 2010년도에는 B. subtilis R2-1의 고추 흰가루병 방제효과가 83.3%로 미생물 농약인 탑시드 보다도 높게 나타났다. B. subtilis R2-1균주의 발병억제 기작을 구명하기 위하여 B. subtilis R2-1균주와 미생물 농약(탑시드, 큐펙트)을 경엽 처리한 후 포자발아율을 계수한 결과, 미생물 농약인 큐펙트는 97.9%, 탑시드는 94.7% 억제하는데 비해서 B. subtilis R2-1균주는 84.2% 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 앞으로 B. subtilis R2-1을 고농도로 배양할 수 있는 대량배양기술을 개발하고 항균활성 기능이 잘 발현되도록 제형화한다면 생물농약으로의 개발이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
