This study was carried out to investigate the effect of medium-cooked rice on brewing of yakju which was a traditional rice wine in Korea. The influences of cooking temperature of rice on hydrolysis of rice starch and rice protein were tested, and experimental brewings were done according to the traditional brewing method of Bangmunju in which some medium-cooked rice was used. The results obtained were as follows The hydrolysis of starch and protein in medium-cooked rice at 60~$65^{\circ}C$ was easier than that of full-cooked rice at 80~10$0^{\circ}C$. The amounts of saccharides, total amino acids and extracts In Yakju brewed with the combined use of medium-cooked rice and full-cooked rice were twice as much as those brewed with full-cooked rice only. The results of sensory test of Yakju brewed with the combined use of medium-cooked rice and full-cooked rice were better in taste, color and flavor than those brewed with full-cooked rice only. It was thought that our ancestor's traditional brewing method of Yakju in which medium cooked rice and full-cooked rice were used combinedly was excellent Judging from zymological point of views.

In cells, the microtubules are surrounded by viscoelastic medium. Microtubules, though very small in size, perform a vital role in transportation of protein and in maintaining the cell shape. During performing these functions waves propagate and this propagation of waves has been investigated using nonlocal elastic theory. But the effect of surrounding medium was not taken into account. To fill this gap, this study considers the viscoelastic medium along with nonlocal elastic theory. The analytical formulas of the velocity of waves, and the results reveal that the presence of medium reduces the velocity. The axisymmetric and nonaxisymmetric waves are separately discussed. Furthermore, the results are compared with the results gained from the studies of free microtubules. The presence of medium around microtubules results in the increase of the flexural rigidity causing a significant decrease in radial wave velocity as compared to axial and circumferential wave velocities. The effect of viscoelastic medium is more obvious on radial wave velocity, to a lesser extent on torsional wave velocity and least on longitudinal wave velocity.

최근 실무에서는 기업의 우량고객을 획득하고 유지하는 주요 판매촉진 수단의 하나로 효과적인 고객보상 프로그램의 활용에 대한 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 이러한 보상 프로그램에서 자주 활용되는 방식으로 마일리지나 포인트 제도가 있는데, 해당 프로그램의 마일리지나포인트를 누적하는 과정에서 소비자들이 실제 받게 되는 보상물보다 마일리지 및 포인트 등에집착하는 현상을 매개물 극대화(medium maximization)로 설명하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고객보상 프로그램을 운영하는 업체의 상품과 보상물 간 상관관계가 존재할수록 노력과 보상 간 관계가 직접적으로 환기될 것으로 판단하여 매개물 효과가 사라질 수 있음을밝히고자 하였다. 실험 1의 결과, 상품과 보상물 간 관련성이 낮은 집단에서는 기존의 매개물 효과가 나타난 반면, 상품과 보상물 간 관련성이 높은 집단에서는 기존의 매개물 효과가 사라짐을확인하였다. 그리고 이러한 효과가 대안 간 가치를 비교하기 쉽고 어려움과 같은 평가용이성에의한 것이 아님을 실험 2를 통해 확인하였다. 실험 2는 매개물 정보 말고도 가격범위 정보를 제공함으로써 객관적인 가치평가가 더 용이한 상황에서도 매개물 효과가 계속 유지되는 것을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 매개물 효과의 영향력 적용범위를 확인하고 판매상품과 보상물 간 관련성이 보상물의 가치 추정 및 매개물 효과에 미치는 효과를 규명하고자 하였다. 이에 따라 기업이 효과적인보상프로그램을 설계하기 위해서는 매개물 극대화 효과가 나타나지 않는 경계조건을 유의하고, 목표에 따른 고객 보상프로그램의 차별적 설계를 가능하게끔 하는데 본 연구의 의의와 시사점이있다.

Background: Breast cancer is the most common neoplasm in women and the most frequent cause of death in those between 35 and 55 years of age. All multicellular organisms have an innate immune system, whereas the adaptive or 'acquired' immune system is restricted to vertebrates. This study focused on the effect of conditioned medium isolated from cultured breast cancer cells on NB4 neutrophil-like cells. Materials and Methods: In the current study neutrophil-like NB4 cells were incubated with MCF-7 cell-conditioned medium. After 6 h incubation the intracellular receptor TLR2, was analyzed. Results: The results revealed that MCF-7 cell-conditioned medium elicited expression of TLR2 in NB4 cells. Conclusions: This treatment would result in the production of particular stimulants (i.e. soluble cytokines), eliciting the expression of immune system receptors. Furthermore, the flow cytometry results demonstrated that MCF-7 cell-conditioned medium elicited an effect on TLR2 intracellular receptors.

In this study Bacillus subtilis PTCC 1023 was used for the production of protopectinase using soybean based media. The use of isolated soybean protein (ISP) and soybean flour resulted in similar protopectinase production and growth rates. The effect of medium composition on protopectinase production was studied using central composite design (CCD) methodology. The change in the concentration of ISP (1-7%), glucose (0-10%), and phosphate (0.1-0.3 M) was found to affect the protopectinase activity (response variable) after 24 hr of cultivation. In the range studied, ISP and glucose had a negative effect on the response variable, whereas phosphate had a positive effect. A statistically significant interaction was identified between phosphate and ISP, suggesting that correct optimization of medium formulation in this case can only be obtained using factorial design of experiments. Protopectinase activity exceeding 215 U/mL was obtained in a medium containing 4% ISP, 0.3M phosphate, and no added sugar.

Among the different techniques available, nuclear methods, including gamma-gamma logging tools, are of special importance. Though the real environment which surrounds the drilled borehole is a complex fractured medium which the fluid can flow through the porosities, simulation studies generally use the traditional model of a homogeneous mixture of formation and the liquid. Considering a previously published study, which shows that modeling of fluid flow in fractured reservoirs and simulating the formation as an inhomogeneous fractured medium leads to different results compared with those of homogeneous mixture, here we study the effect of the presence of drilling fluid (mudcake) on the response of the detectors in both the models. To study this effect, a typical gamma-gamma logging tool was modeled by using the MCNPX Monte Carlo code. The results show that the responses of the detectors in the mixture model in the presence of various thicknesses of mudcake are sensitive to the density of the formation material. However, this effect is not notable in the inhomogeneous fractured medium. These results emphasize the importance of the model employed for simulation of the medium in gamma-gamma well-logging.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact of quality management system requirements, which are techniques for management innovation to secure competitiveness of small and medium-sized manufacturers, on management performance as economic uncertainties increase and non-face-to-face culture spread. To this end, a survey was conducted on small and medium-sized manufacturing companies that maintain ISO certification. As a result of the study, first, it was found that planning had a positive effect on management performance among the requirements of the quality management system. Second, it was found that improvement among the requirements of the quality management system had a positive effect on management performance. Third, in the relationship between the requirements of the quality management system and management performance, leadership was found to have a complete mediating effect on planning. This means that the CEO plays a large role in establishing strategies for companies to gain a competitive advantage and will contribute to establishing all measures.

In this study the magneto hydrodynamic (MHD) micro polar fluid flow of a viscous incompressible fluid past a porous medium in the presence of chemical reaction is considered. This work is devoted to investigate the Soret effect and Electromagnetic radiation effect and analyze analytically. In the energy equation the applied magnetic field strength and in the concentration equation the Soret effect are incorporated. The basic PDE (partial differential equations) are reduced to ODE (ordinary differential equations) using non dimensional variables. Then the analytical solution of the dimensionless equations are found using perturbation technique. The features of the fluid flow parameters are analyzed, discussed and explained graphically. The graphical solutions are found using MATLAB R2019b. Skin friction coefficient at the wall, Couple stress coefficient at the plate and the local surface heat flux are also thoroughly examined. Overall, this study sheds light on the complex interplay between physical parameters in the behavior of MHD micro-polar fluid past a porous medium in the presence of chemical reaction.
