We proposed and demonstrated a simultaneous measurement method to detect the refractive index and temperature of a medium using a side-polished fiber involving FBG (fiber Bragg grating). The temperature of a medium was obtained by using the Bragg wavelength shift of FBG, while the refractive index of medium were calculated by using the transmission loss. The Bragg wavelength is independent on the refractive index of the covering medium placed on surface of side-polished fiber, while the transmission loss at off-Bragg wavelength highly depends on the environmental temperature because of thermo-optic effect of the medium.

Rapid, real-time detection of pathogenic microorganisms is an emerging and quickly evolving field of research, especially with regard to microorganisms that pose a major threat to public health. Herein, a new method that uses bioimpedance and solid culture medium for the real-time detection of microorganisms is introduced. We fabricated a new impedimetric biosensor by integrating solid media and two plane electrodes attached on two facing sides of an acryl well. During bioelectrical impedance analysis, the solid medium showed the characteristics of a homogenous conductive material. In a real-time impedance measurement, our solid-medium biosensor could monitor bacterial growth in situ with a detection time of ${\sim}4$ hrs. Our data indicate that the solid-medium biosensor is useful for detecting airborne microorganisms, thereby providing a new analytical tool for impedance microbiology.

A sine with dwell test is well known as a test scenario for evaluation of performance of electronic stability control(ESC) on passenger vehicles and heavy commercial vehicles. However, when it comes to ESC for medium commercial vehicles, the test scenario has not been established yet. In this paper, the sine with dwell test was modified considering characteristics of medium commercial vehicles. The three main modifications of the original test scenario are the steering angle level, steering frequency, and loading condition of the vehicle. These modifications are derived from simulation study for different medium commercial vehicles. From simulation study, it was shown that the ESC system for medium commercial vehicle is objectively evaluated by the proposed test scenario. A clear improvement on vehicle stability was seen in the results when ESC system was used.

The optimum medium composition for the production of L-tryptophan with Klebsiella pnuemoniae pheA tyrA trpE trpR/pSC 101-trp$^{+}$ and the effect of precusors in the optimum medium were studied. The specific growth rate in the optimum medium was almost the same as that in the basal medium, the former showing 1.01 and the latter 1.07 hr $$^{-1}$, but the produced tryptophan was increased 45% in the optimum medium. The maximum amount of produced tryptophan was 159 mg/l within 14 hours. Tryptophan production was ceased by casamino acid addition over 4 g/l in medium, but cell maSS increased with its addition. Indole and anthranilate as precusors had toxic effect on growth and tryptophan production at experimented concentration range (over 20 mg/l), but L-serine had good effect on tryptophan production, resulting in 175 mg/l tryptophan within 14 hours.

The highest degree of callus formation was obtained from the shoot tips of Dianthus superbus when cultured on the MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L NAA and 0.5 mg/L BAP. Embryogenic calluses were obtained from the seperated friable calluses on MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D after 7-8 wk of culture. For plant regeneration, embryogenic calluses were selected and cultured on te proliferation medium. After 3 wk, somatic embryos appeared on MSK medium (0.5 mg/L NAA, 2.0 mg/L kinetin) and N6 medium (2.0 mg/L kinetin, 0.1 mg/LNAA, 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D and 2.0 g/L casein hydrolysate). When these somatic embryos were kept under continuous illumination, shoots were successfully regenerated on the both media. The shoots were rooted on MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L NAA.

The objective of this paper is to investigate the surface waves in fibre-reinforced anisotropic thermoelastic medium subjected to gravity field. The theory of generalized surface waves has firstly developed and then it has been employed to investigate particular cases of waves, viz., Stoneley waves, Rayleigh waves and Love waves. The analytical expressions for displacement components, force stress and temperature distribution are obtained in the physical domain by using the harmonic vibrations. The wave velocity equations have been obtained in different cases. The numerical results are given and presented graphically in Green-Lindsay and Lord-Shulman theory of thermoelasticity. Comparison was made with the results obtained in the presence and absence of gravity, anisotropy, relaxation times and parameters for fibrereinforced of the material medium. The results indicate that the effect of gravity, anisotropy, relaxation times and parameters for fibre-reinforced of the material medium are very pronounced.
