0.15(B $a_{0.95}$ S $r_{0.05}$)O-0.15S $m_{2}$ $O_{3}$-0.7Ti $O_{2}$ ceramics were fabricated by the mixed-oxide method. Microwave dielectric properties were investigated with sintering conditions. Increasing the sintering temperature from 1300 to 1375[.deg. C], the sintered density was increased from 5.44 to 5.63[g/c $m^{3$]. Increasing the sintering temperature, dielectric constant and quality factor were increased and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency was independent of sintering temperature. In the specimen sintered at 1375[.deg. C], dielectric constant, quality factor and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency were 80.79, 2784(at 3[GHz]), +11.07[ppm/.deg. C], respectively..

Fullerene-60 nanoparticles were used for studying their effect on the low-density polyethylene (LDPE) biodegradation efficiency of two potential polymer-degrading consortia comprising three bacterial strains each. At a concentration of 0.01% (w/v) in minimal broth lacking dextrose, fullerene did not have any negative influence upon the consortia growth. However, fullerene was found to be detrimental for bacterial growth at higher concentrations (viz., 0.25%, 0.5%, and 1%). Although addition of 0.01% fullerene into the biodegradation assays containing 5mg/ml LDPE subsided growth curves significantly, subsequent analysis of the degraded products revealed an enhanced biodegradation. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) revealed breakage and formation of chemical bonds along with the introduction of ${\nu}C$-O frequencies into the hydrocarbon backbone of LDPE. Moreover, simultaneous thermogravimetric-differential thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTG-DTA) revealed a higher number of decomposition steps along with a 1,000-fold decrease in the heat of reactions (${\Delta}H$) in fullerene-assisted biodegraded LDPE, suggesting the probable formation of multiple macromolecular byproducts. This is the first report whereby fullerene-60, which is otherwise considered toxic, has helped to accelerate the polymer biodegradation process of bacterial consortia.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of the canal filling sealer to resin cement When posts were cemented in the endodontically treated teeth, 86 incisors were used. The coronal portion of the teeth were removed at the cemento-enamel junction, every tooth was done treatment of canal. And the teeth was divided was into 12 groups. G : I a n : 7 Treatment : Z.P.C (1 day after Z.O.E. sealer) G : I b n : 7 Treatment : All-Bond (3 day after sealer) G : II a n : 8 Treatemt : Z.P.C (3 day after sealer) G : II b n : 7 Treatemt : All-Bond (3 day after sealer) G : III a n : 8 Treatemt : Z.P.C (7 day after sealer) G : III b n : 8 Treatemt : All-Bond (7 day after sealer) G : IV a n : 7 Treatemt : Z.P.C (1 day after Apexit sealer) G : IV b n : 7 Treatemt : All-Bond (1 day after sealer) G : V a n : 7 Treatemt : Z.P.C (3 day after sealer) G : V b n : 7 Treatemt : All-Bond (3 day after sealer) G : VI a n : 7 Treatemt : Z.P.C (7 day after sealer) G : VI a n : 7 Treatemt : All-Bond (7 day after sealer) Ready made stainless steel Para-post(PD-K-3) was cemented with Z.P.C. in subgroup a, and cemented with All-Bond & composite resin cement in subgroup b to depth 7mm. After 5 days at cementation of post, teeth with cemented posts were mounted on a retention jig and the failure loads of the specimens were measured by an Instron Universal Testing Machine. The results were as follows. 1. The results of failure loads were $15.5{\pm}7.1kg$ in group I b, $21.6{\pm}5.4kg$ in group II b and $20.1{\pm}18.1kg$ in group III b, and there was no statistically significant , difference between each group(p>0.05). 2. The results of failure loads were $19.0{\pm}6.7kg$ in group IV b, $17.3{\pm}6.5kg$ in group V b.and $18.9{\pm}7.9kg$ in group VI b and there was no significant difference between each other(p>0.05). 3. In same condition, the failure load of subgroup a was largely higher the subgroup b. But there was no significant difference between each other(p>0.05).

Mild stresses such as high temperature ($30^{\circ}C$) or a low $H_2O_2$ concentration induced transient cell cycle arrest at G1/S or G2/M depending on the cell cycle stage at which the stress was applied. When stresses were introduced during G0 or G1, the G1/S checkpoint was mainly used; when stresses were introduced after S phase, G2/M was the primary checkpoint. The slowing of cell cycle progression was associated with transient delays in expression of A-, B-, and D-type cyclins. The delay in expression of NtcycA13, one of the A-type cyclins, was most pronounced. The levels of expression of Ntcyc29 (a cyclin B gene) and of CycD3-1 differed most depending on the applied stress, suggesting that different cellular adjustments to mild heat and a low concentration of $H_2O_2$ are reflected in the expression of these two cyclins.

Transmission of substituent effects through 5-membered heteroaromaticrings isinvestigated theoretically at the RHF/6-31+G* and B3LYP/6-31+G* levelsusing the deprotonation equilibria of phenol analogues with heteroatoms Y = NH, O, PHand S. The incr ease in the resonance delocalization of the $\pilone-pair$ on the phe-nolic oxygen atom, $n\pi(O)$, accompanied with the deprotonation depends on the heteroatom Y,in the order NH < O < PH < S. This represents the $\pielectron$ accepting ability, or conversely reverse order of the $\pielectron$ donating ability of the $\pilone-pair$ on Y, $n\pi(Y).$ The transmission efficiency of substituenteffects is, however,in the reverse order NH > O > S, which represents the order of delocalizability of $n\pi(Y).$ A better correlation is obtained with ${\sigma}p$ - than with ${\sigma}p$ for the Hammett type plots with the positive slope, $\rho-$ > 0, of the magnitude in the same order as that for the delocalizability of $n\pi(Y).$ Thedeprotonation energy, ΔG = [G(PA) + G(H+)] -G(P), decreases with the increasein the extence delocalization in the order NH > O > PH > S.

Change of IgG production of feline mononuclear cell(MNC) was evalual vitro. MNC was treated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS) before cortisol administration. tisol induced change of B cell subpopulation with surface IgG and reduced IgG prods against virus. However, before treatment o$\ulcorner$ MNC with LPS induced increasement of subpopulation with surface IgG and IgG production against virus. These results impel: diminution of IgG production by cortisol is well again by LPS treatment.

Microporous glasses in the system TiO2-SiO2-Al2O3-B2O3-CaO-Na2O were prepared by the phase-separation technique. Morphology and distribution of pore and specific surface area of glasses heated and leached out at various conditions were investigated by SEM and Porosimeter. Crystallization of glasses heated above transition temperature was also inspected by X-ray diffraction method. When the heating temperature and time increased, the pore size and volume increased, but the specific surface area decreased above the critical temperature. The phase-separation, specific surface area and pore size showed more sensitive change on the variation of heating temperature than of heating time. The specific surface area and micropore volume of porous glasses prepared in this study were about 120-330$m^2$/g and 0.001-0.01cc/g, respectively. Mean pore size of porous glasses were about 20-90$\AA$. Anatase phases was deposited when the parent glass was heat-treated at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 6hrs.

In this research We investigated the effect of UV/O3, $O_3$ treatments of Indium-tin oxide(ITO) surface on the performance of organic light emitting devices(OLEDs). The fundamental structure of OLEDs was ITO(anode) / TPD(Hole Transport Layer) / $Alq_3$ / Al(cathode). We performed UV/O3, $O_3$ treatments and found that both treatments enhanced the performance of OLEDs. Current-Voltage, Luminance-Voltage characteristics were measured at room temperature.

For n pairs of points (a,b) on a circle, the line segment to connect two points is called a chord. These chords define a new graph G. Each chord corresponds to a vertex of G, and if two chords intersect, the two vertices corresponding to them are connected by an edge. This makes a graph, called by a circle graph. In this paper, we deal with the problem to find the connected components of a circle graph. The connected component of a graph G is a maximal subgraph H such that any two vertices in H can be connected by a path. When the adjacent matrix of G is given, the problem to find them can be solved by either the depth-first search or the breadth-first search. But when only the information for the chords is given as an input, it takes ${\Omega}(n^2)$ time to obtain the adjacent matrix. In this paper, we do not make the adjacent matrix and develop an $O(n{\log}^2n)$ algorithm for the problem.
