With the aim to produce ascorbic acid-2-phosphate(AsA-2-P) from L-ascorbic acid(AsA, Vitamin C), nine bacteria conferring the ability to transform AsA to AsA-2-P were isolated from soil samples alongside known strains from culture collections. Most isolates were classified to the genus Brevundimonas by 16S phylogenetic analysis. Among them, Brevundimonas diminuta KACC 10306 was selected as the experimental strain because of its the highest productivity of AsA-2-P. The optimum set of conditions for the AsA-2-P production from AsA using resting cells as the source of the enzyme was also investigated. The optimum cultivation time was 16 h and the cell concentration was 120g/l(wet weight). The optimum concentrations of AsA and pyrophosphate were 550mM and 450mM, respectively. The most effective buffer was 50mM sodium formate. The optimum pH was 4.5 and temperature was $40^{\circ}C$. Under the above conditions, 27.5g/l of AsA-2-P was produced from AsA after 36 h of incubation, which corresponded to a 19.7% conversion efficiency based on the initial concentration of AsA.

A general purpose program for computing 3-D flows has been extended for two-phase flows with topologically complex interfaces. The 3-D interfaces are tracked by employing a coupled level set and volume-of-fluid (CLSVOF) method which not only can calculate an interfacial curvature accurately but also can achieve mass conservation well. The program has been tested through the computations of bubbles rising in a liquid. The numerical results are found to compare well with the results reported in the literature.

M. Junger, G. Reinelt, and W. R. Pulleyblank asked the following questions ([2]). (1) Is it true that every simple planar 2-edge connected bipartite graph has a 3-partition in which each component consists of the edge set of a simple path? (2) Does every simple planar 2-edge connected graph have a 3-partition in which every component consists of the edge set of simple paths and triangles? The purpose of this paper is to provide a positive answer to the second question for simple outerplanar 2-vertex connected graphs and a positive answer to the first question for simple planar 2-edge connected bipartite graphs one set of whose bipartition has at most 4 vertices.

This survey was ocnducted to investgate changes of the plant community structure from 1972 to 1993 in forest of Mt. Kwanak and thirty-five plots that the size of each plot was 10m${\times}$10m(100㎡) were set up and the vegetation analysis was caried out. By the TWINSPAN analysis, the plant community of survey area were divied into Quercus mongolica, Q. mongolica-Pinus densiflora(1), Q. mongolica-P. densiflora(2), Q. acutissima community. The successional trends of the woody species were seemed to be from P. densiflora, Sorbus alnifolia to Q. mongolica in the canopy layer. But the successional trends in the understory and shrub layer were difficult to suppose. The forest vegetation of Mt. Kwanak from 1972 to 1993 was severely decreased in species number and individuals. The sensitive species for the environmental pollution were selected, and the tolerant plants for the acid soil were increased. In comparision with the DBH class distribution from 1972 to 1993, it shows that the ecological succession has stopped. In the analysis of soil characteristics, soil acidification has taken place over last twenty-two years(from pH=5.40 to pH=4.53). The concentration of K+, Ca++ was severly decreased(from K+=0.60m.e./100g to K+=0.06m.e./100g, from Ca++=3.20m.e./100g to Ca++=0.63m.e./100g), which also could seemed to be cause of plant community decline.

On the basis of our previous research results concerning a batch Teflon coating process on the surface of basalt fiber which has superior fire-resistance and chemical resistance, we have tried to set up suitable operating conditions for continuous polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE) coating process. The basalt fiber was continuously pre-treated with 7.5 wt%(6.5% of DPU) of triethoxytrifluoropropylsilane(TMTFPS) and then coated with 20 wt% of PTFE dispersions containing 0.25 wt% of penetrating agent sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfo succinate (DOS-Na) to get the highest tensile and loop strengths. After dipping process, the PTFE coated basalt fiber was dried under 2 m drying chamber at $120^{\circ}C$ with 12 m/min of winding speed and consequently sintered under 2 m sintering chamber at $380^{\circ}C$ for 40 s. Conclusively, PTFE coated basalt fiber whose tensile and loop strengths were to $3.4g_f/D$ and $2.3g_f/D$, respectively, applicable to high temperature sewing thread could be continuously prepared with our pilot scale process under optimum conditions.

A dicycle pyrazoline derivative, 1-phenyl-5-(p-fluorophenyl)-3,4-($\alpha$-p-fluoro-tolylenecyclohexano) pyrazoline, was synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis, fluorescence spectra and X-ray single crystal diffraction. Density function theory (DFT) calculations were performed by using B3LYP method with 6-$311G^{**}$ basis set. The optimized geometry can well simulate the molecular structure. Vibrational frequencies were predicted, assigned and compared with the experimental values, which suggest that B3LYP/6-$311G^{**}$ method can well predict the IR spectra. Both the experimental electronic absorption spectra and the predicted ones by B3LYP/6-$311G^{**}$ method reveal three electron-transition bands, with the theoretical ones having some red shifts compared with the experimental data. Natural bond orbital analyses indicate that the absorption bands are mainly derived from the contribution of n $\rightarrow\pi^*$ and $\pi\rightarrow\pi^*$ transitions. Fluorescence spectra determination shows that the title compound can emit blue-light at about 478 nm. On the basis of vibrational analysis, the thermodynamic properties of title compound at different temperature have been calculated, revealing the correlations between $C^0_{p,m}$, $S^0_m$, $H^0_m$ and temperature.

Let k be a positive integer, and let G be a simple graph with vertex set V (G). A Roman k-dominating function on G is a function f : V (G) $\rightarrow$ {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex u for which f(u) = 0 is adjacent to at least k vertices $\upsilon_1,\;\upsilon_2,\;{\ldots},\;\upsilon_k$ with $f(\upsilon_i)$ = 2 for i = 1, 2, $\ldot$, k. The weight of a Roman k-dominating function is the value f(V (G)) = $\sum_{u{\in}v(G)}$ f(u). The minimum weight of a Roman k-dominating function on a graph G is called the Roman k-domination number ${\gamma}_{kR}$(G) of G. Note that the Roman 1-domination number $\gamma_{1R}$(G) is the usual Roman domination number $\gamma_R$(G). In this paper, we investigate the properties of the Roman k-domination number. Some of our results extend these one given by Cockayne, Dreyer Jr., S. M. Hedetniemi, and S. T. Hedetniemi [2] in 2004 for the Roman domination number.

Taxonomies are widely used to classify information, and multiple (possibly competing) taxonomies often exist for the same domain. Given a set of correspondences between two taxonomies, it is often necessary to "merge" the taxonomies, thereby creating a unied taxonomy (e.g., that can then be used by data integration and discovery applications). We present an algorithm for merging taxonomies that have been related using articulations given as RCC-5 constraints. Two taxa Nand M can be related using (disjunctions of) the ve base relations in RCC-5: M; N ${\subseteq}$M; N ${\supseteq}$; N ${\oplus}$M (partial overlap of Nand M); and N ! M (disjointness: N ${\cap}$M = ${\varnothing}$). RCC-5 is increasingly being adopted by scientists to specify mappings between large biological taxonomies. We discuss the properties of the proposed merge algorithm and evaluate our approach using real-world taxonomies.

In modern times, coupled fixed point theorems have been rigorously studied by many researchers in the milieu of partially ordered G-metric spaces using different contractive conditions. In this note, some coupled fixed point theorems using mixed monotone property in partially ordered G-metric spaces are obtained. Furthermore some theorems by omitting the completeness on the space and continuity conditions on function, are obtained. Our results partially generalize some existing results in the present literature. To exemplify our results and to distinguish them from the existing ones, we equip the article with suitable examples.
