Die casting process of Mg alloys for high temperature applications was studied to produce an engine oil pan. The aim of this paper is to evaluate die casting processes of the Aluminium oil pan and in parallel to apply new Mg alloy for die casting the oil pan. Temperature distributions of the die and flow pattern of the alloys in cavity were simulated to diecast a new Mg alloy by the flow simulation software. Dies have to be modified according to material characteristics because melting temperature and heat capacity are different. We changed the shape and position of runner, gate, vent hole and overflow by the simulation results. After several trial and error, oil pans of AE44 and MRI153M Mg alloys are produced successfully without defect. Sleeve filling ratio, cavity filling time and shot speed of die casting machine are important parameter to minimize the defect for die casting Magnesium alloy.

Computational thermodynamics for various alloy systems is well known as the CALPHAD technique. Gibbs energy model parameters for each phase are obtained from experimentally measured thermodynamic properties and are mainly used to predict areas not experimentally measured and to analyze experimental results thermodynamically. In this study, the thermodynamic modeling of the Ni-Cr-Nb-C quaternary system is conducted for a thermodynamic analysis of the phenomena by which heat-resistant cast alloys (IN-657) are destroyed in certain areas after long-term use. The stable phases in the system according to the Cr content, phase fraction depending on the temperature, and long-range ordering parameters for the Ni₂Cr phase are calculated and compared to results obtained experimentally. The calculated thermodynamic properties suitably explain the experimentally reported fracture temperature range and the results of stable phases formed in the fractured areas. Thermodynamic modeling through the CALPHD method is expected to be useful for analyzing and predicting the thermodynamic behaviors of various cast alloys.

The hot corrosion properties of heat-resistant steels were investigated in an oxidation atmosphere including artificial ash and sulfur dioxide. The heat-resistant steels of T22, T92, T122, T347HFG, Super304H and HR3C were evaluated at 620, 670 and $720^{\circ}C$ for 400 hours. The relationship between the corrosion rate and the temperature followed a bell-shaped curve with a peak rate at around $670^{\circ}C$. The corrosion rates showed a decreasing tendency as the chrome contents of these steels increased from 2.15 wt.% to 24.5 wt.%, and austenitic steels had a lower corrosion rate than ferritic steels. Sulfidation by $SO_2$ as well as molten salt corrosion also had an effect on the total corrosion rate, especially showing an increase in the corrosion rate in ferritic steels. Regardless of the chrome content in the steels and irrespective of the test temperature, the corrosion scale was composed of an outer oxide and an artificial ash mixed layer, a middle oxide layer and inner sulfide, and a mixed oxide layer. As the chrome content increased, the proportion of chrome oxide in the corrosion scale increased. Before spalling of the corrosion scale, voids and cracks were initiated in the sulfide and the mixed oxide layer or at the interface with the substrate.

Survival and thermal inactivation after heat treatment at $143^{\circ}F$ were observed among 27 strains of coliform bacteria isolated from dairy cattle. The results obtained were as follows. 1. The obvious differences in heat-sensitivity were observed among the strains tested. 2. No strain was found resistant to the heat treatment of $143^{\circ}F$ for 30 minutes. 3. A marked effect of density of coliform bacteria on the survival after the heat treatment was observed. As the density of coliform bacteria was increased, the rate of survival was increased markedly regardless of the length of heat treatment.

To determine the prevalence of antibiotic resistance in fecal E. coli and to investigate possible associations between antibiotic resistance and other plasmid-mediated virulence properties, antibiotic disk susceptibility tests for nine antibiotics were done on 141 strains of E. coli isolated from diarrheal children and well controls. Eighty two percent of the test strains were resistant to one or more antibiotics. Antibiotics to which the test strains were most resistant in descending order were ampicillin (85%), trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazol (60%), and cephalothin (55%). Seventy nine percent of these resistant strains were resistant to two or more antibiotics. All 141 test strains were sorted into enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC), enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), enteroadherent E. coli (EAEC) and non-pathogenic E. coli and the percentages of strains resistant to multiple antibiotics were compared. Among ETEC regardless of its source, multiple drug resistance was more frequent in strains producing heatstable enterotoxin (ST) only than in strains producing only heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) or both. In EAEC, multiple resistance was more frequently associated with strains isolated from diarrheal patients than with those from well controls. The major antibiotic resistance patterns possessed by multiple resistant enteropathogenic strains were $SXT^R$ $AM^R$, $CR^R$, and $SXT^R$ $AM^R$ $CR^R$. Of 28 ST- producing $SXT^R$ ETEC, 26(96%) were also resistant to ampicillin and 17 (61%) were resistant to cephalothin. The similar pattern was observed in EAEC and EPEC as well. This study has important implications for the treatment of E. coli diarrhea with antibiotics because it is possible that dissemination of virulence could occur under the force of selective antibiotic pressure. In addition, this study suggests that the in vivo efficacy of SXT in treating diarrheal illness be reevaluated.

In this study, species resistant to forest fire were extracted from high trees through an investigation of combustion mechanism. Here, the average flameless ignition temperatures of living leaves, branches and barks of oak were respectively, $365^{\circ}C$, $440^{\circ}C$ and $435^{\circ}C$, and the average flameless ignition temperatures of living leaves, branches, barks and cones of pine tree were respectively, $320^{\circ}C$, $405^{\circ}C$, $435^{\circ}C$ and $363^{\circ}C$. It shows that generally, pine tree has a lower flameless ignition temperature than oak and thus, has a relatively high risk of flameless ignition. When comparing risk of fire depending on ignition characteristics, Quercus serrata had a low risk of stem fire, and Quercus acutissima and Quercus serrata had a low risk of crown fire, as well. When analysing risk of fire depending on a duration of flame, also, Quercus dentata had a low risk of stem fire, and Quercus variabilis Blume had a low risk of crown fire too. Lastly, when comparing risk of fire, according to heat release rates, Quercus acutissima had a low risk of stem fire, and Quercus acutissima and Quercus dentata had a low risk of crown fire, as well. In conclusion, it was observed that as fire-resistant species, Quercus serrata and Quercus dentata have a low risk of ignition, Quercus variabilis Blume has a short duration of flame after discharging ignition when a forest fire occurs, and Quercus acutissima, Pinus Rigida and Antipathes japonica Brook have low heat release rates.

To develop a method for increasing RS level in maize starch, cross-linked resistant starches treated with annealing were prepared. Maize starch and amylomaize VII were used in the study and annealed at $40{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ before cross-linking modification. To compare effect of annealing below gelatinization temperature, starches were heat treated at 70 and $100^{\circ}C$. RS contents were assayed by pancreatin-gravimetric (P/G) method. When maize starch and amylomaize VII were cross-linked at $45^{\circ}C$ and pH 11.0 by slurrying the starch on a solution of STMP(sodium trimetaphosphate), STPP(sodium tripolyphosphate), and sodium sulfate, RS content was 14.7% and 45.3%, respectively. Annealing below gelatinization temperature before cross-linking increased RS contents of prepared cross-linked starches but did not affect the swelling power. Heat treatment above gelatinization temperature increased the swelling power of cross-linked starch prepared from maize starch. The characteristics by X-ray diffractometry and scanning electron microscopy of cross-linked resistant starch were not changed by annealing.

Salmonella is widely prevalent in various environments and often detected in poultry. In this study, we investigated the effect of heat treatment on heat resistance via measuring the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values of antibiotics after 3, 6, and 9 min of acclimatization to mild heat treatment (50℃) against 11 strains of Salmonella spp. Most strains were susceptible to chloramphenicol and their MIC values were maintained or decreased after heat treatment compared to the control. Most control and heat-treated strains showed susceptibility or intermediate resistance to ciprofloxacin. All isolates were susceptible to tetracycline, with the MIC increasing after heat treatment for S. Gaminara BAA 711. In the control, three, two, and six strains were susceptible, intermediate resistance, and resistant to gentamicin, respectively. Among them, S. Heidelberg ATCC 8326 had an intermediate MIC breakpoint of 8 ㎍/mL in the control; however, after 3 and 9 min of heat treatment, the MIC value increased to 16 ㎍/mL, indicating it to be resistant. The results of this study revealed the changes in antibiotic resistance in some of the 11 strains after heat treatment. MIC values of ciprofloxacin increased when S. Montevideo BAA 710 was heat treated for 3 and 6 min. MIC values of gentamicin increased after 3 min of heat treatment for S. Enteritidis 109 D1 and after 3 and 9 minutes of heat treatment for S. Heidelberg ATCC 8326. The MIC value of tetracycline increased when S. Gaminara BAA 711 was heat treated for 6 and 9 min.
