  • A new solid complexes of Ti(IV), Y(III) and Ce(IV) have been synthesized with ofloxacin. The formulae and structure of the complexes have been proposed in the light of analytical, spectral ($^1H$ NMR, IR and UV-Visible), magnetic, molar conductivities and thermal studies. The complexes are soluble in DMSO-$d_6$ and DMF. The measured molar conductance values indicate that, the three complexes are electrolyte in nature. The results support the formation of the complexes and indicated that ofloxacin reacts as a bidentate ligand chelate to the metal ion through the pyridone oxygen and one carboxylato oxygen. The kinetic parameters of thermogravimetric and its differential have been evaluated by using Coats Redfern (CR) and Horowitz-Metzeger (HM) methods. The thermodynamic data reflect the thermal stability for all complexes. The metal- ligand binding of the Ti(IV), Y(III) and Ce(IV) complexes is predicted using density funcational theory at the B3LYP-CEP-31G level of theory and total energy, dipole moment estimation of different Ti(IV), Y(III) and Ce(IV) ofloxacin structures. The biological activities of the ofloxacin, inorganic salts and their metal complexes were assayed against different bacterial species.

  • This paper suggests that the immune network algorithm based on fuzzy set can effectively be used in tuning of a PID controller for multivariable process or nonlinear process. The artificial immune network always has a new parallel decentralized processing mechanism for various situations, since antibodies communicate to each other among different species of antibodies/B-cells through the stimulation and suppression chains among antibodies that from a large-scaled network. In addition to that, the structure of the network is not fixed, but varies continuously. On the other hand, a number of tuning technologies have been considered for the tuning of a PID controller. As a less common method, the fuzzy and neural network or its combined techniques are applied. However, in the case of the latter, yet, it is not applied in the practical field, in the former, a higher experience and technology is required during tuning procedure. Along with these, this paper used the fuzzy set in order that the stimulation and suppression relationship between antibody and antigen can be more adaptable controlled against the external condition, including noise or disturbance of plant. The immune network based on fuzzy set suggested here is applied for the PID controller tuning of multivariable process with two inputs and one output and is simulated.

  • On-chip micro humidity sensor, using $CN_x$ films for the sensing material, was designed, simulated, and fabricated with Op amp based readout circuit and diode temperature sensors. To compensate the temperature and other gases, two methods were applied. One is wheatstone-bridge with reference FET that eliminates other undesirable chemical species, and the other is a diode temperature sensor to compensate the temperature effect. $CN_x$ film can be a new humidity sensing material, and has a strong potential to adapt to smart sensors or multi-sensors using MEMS or nano-technology. A particular design technology for integration of sensors and systems together was proposed that whole fabrication process could be achieved by a standard CMOS process.

  • The silkworm, Bombyx mori L. is prone to infection of various pathogenic organisms. Pebrine, one of the deadliest disease of silkworm caused by highly virulent parasitic microsporidian, Nosema bombycis has been understood since long. Infections of the disease range from chronic to highly virulent and can result in complete lose to the sericulture industry. Several strains and species of microsporidians have since been isolated from the infected silkworms. A new microsporidian spore was isolated from Lamerin breed of the silkworm B. mori have been studied under scanning electron microscope, found to be different in spore size (length 4.36$\pm$0.06 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, width 2.14$\pm$0.01${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) and shape (ova cylindrical with slight depression) from standard strain N. bombycis (length 3.08$\pm$0.21 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, width 2.01$\pm$0.05 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and ovidal respectively). In immunological test, the silkworm breed Lamerin isolated micrisporidian spore does not react to different antibody (N. bombycis, M$_{11}$ and M$_{12}$) sensitized latex particle and thus appeared to be a different strain of microsporidian parasitic to the Lamerin breed of the silkworm B. mori.i.i.

  • Unpacking and dispersing rights of various kinds formerly enjoyed by a selected few has been the constant motivation behind the democratization and modernization of human society. Human rights and later civil rights have continuously been constituted and reconstituted in response to the demands of the laboring class, slaves, women, subalterns, animals, and things, expanding beyond the boundaries of class, race, nation, sexuality, gender, species and organism. Calling attention to the ways in which literary and cultural texts have narrated rights so as to inscribe these human, nonhuman, and inhuman demands. Narrating rights offer opportunities to interrogate the lasting contributions of English language and literature to questioning, reforming, and practicing rights. The interrogation is particularly pertinent in this age in which revised and dispersed rights are creating new conflicts, requiring them to be narrated differently and imaginatively so as to allow all the parties in conflict to participate in working out the conflicts. With the 2017 theme of "Literature and Human Rights," JELL editorial collective hope to explore the relationship between literature and human rights in its multiple simultaneous, and plural manifestations in an open platform. "Narrating Rights" is a double-edged task that, on one hand, reflects the singular life conditions or contexts of a human, inhuman or nonhuman being and, on the other hand, aspires to the perpetual process of rights' universal application. Eleven out of all the keynote speakers at the 2017 ELLAK Convention were invited to this roundtable on Literature and Human Rights. The following transcription includes the dialogues of the eleven discussants.

  • Acetic acid bacteria (AAB) are versatile organisms involved in the production of variety of fermented foods, such as vinegar and kombucha, and products of biotechnological relevance, such as bacterial cellulose. In the present study, Malatya apricot, a variety with protected designation of origin (PDO), and vinegar samples produced using various fruits were used to isolate AAB. The 19 AAB isolates obtained were typed using (GTG)5 fingerprinting, and the ones selected were identified by sequencing either 16S rDNA alone or in combination with 16S-23S rRNA internal transcribed spacer region or ligA gene. While all apricot isolates (n = 10) were Gluconobacter cerinus, vinegar isolates (n = 9) were composed of Komagataeibacter saccharivorans, Acetobacter syzygii, and possible two new species of AAB, Komagataeibacter sp., and Gluconobacter sp. (GTG)5 fingerprinting showed the presence of several genotypes of G. cerinus in the apricot samples. Screening for some technologically relevant properties, including thermotolerance, ethanol tolerance, and cellulose production capability, showed that all Komagataeibacter and some Gluconobacter isolates could tolerate the temperature of 35℃, and that vinegar isolates could tolerate up to 8% ethanol. One isolate, Komagataeibacter sp. GUS3 produced bacterial cellulose (1 g/l) and has the potential to be used for cellulose production.

  • Excessive glutamate causes oxidative stress in neuronal cells, which can cause degenerative neurological disorders. We tried to find medicinal plant showed neuroprotective activity by using glutamate-injured HT22 cell as a model system. In this study, we found that Boesenbergia rotunda methanol extract showed neuroprotective activity against glutamate induced neurotoxicity in mouse hippocampal HT22 cells. B. rotunda methanol extract suppressed the formation of reactive oxygen species and decreased intracellular Ca2+concentration. Also, B. rotunda made mitochondrial membrane potential maintain to normal levels. In addition, B. rotunda increased total glutathione amount and activated antioxidative enzyme such as glutathione reductase and glutathione peroxidase compared to glutamate-treated groups. These results suggested that B. rotunda decreased neuronal cell death damaged by high concentrations of glutamate treatment, via antioxidative mechanism and might be one of candidate of development of new drug to treat neurodegenerative disease such as Alzheimer's disease.

  • Following recent taxonomic, distributional, and nomenclatural revisions, an updated checklist of endemic plants on the Korean Peninsula is needed. This study provides an updated checklist of vascular plants endemic to the Korean Peninsula and describes their distribution within administrative provinces. The revised checklist includes 373 endemic taxa (304 species, six subspecies, 49 varieties, and 14 nothospecies) from 179 genera and 64 families, representing 9.5% of the total native flora of the Korean Peninsula. Asteraceae (41 taxa), Ranunculaceae (29 taxa), Liliaceae s.l. (24 taxa), and Rosaceae (22 taxa) were the most widely represented families. Compared with the most recent checklist published in 2017, 39 taxa were excluded from the checklist; one taxon was excluded because it did not have a valid published name, seven taxa were excluded because their natural habitats extended to neighboring countries, four taxa were excluded because they were treated as a rank form, and 27 taxa were excluded because they had been identified as heterotypic synonyms of taxa distributed outside of the Korean Peninsula. Fifty-two new taxa were included based on the literature. This checklist will help to focus conservation efforts and provide a framework for research, protection, and policy implementation related to these endemic taxa.

  • 인류 문명과 함께해 온 나무 중 하나인 '오동'은 정원수로도 널리 사용되어왔다. 본 연구의 목적은 우리나라의 전통 정원에 '오동'이 어디에 어떻게 식재되었는가? 또 그로부터 취한 효용성은 무엇이었는가를 규명하는데 있다. 본 연구를 통해 규명하고자 한 것은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 우리나라의 전통 정원에서 '오동나무'와 '벽오동' 등 수종을 명확히 구분하고, 또 이들을 방위에 따라 가려서 식재하였는가? 둘째, 의기(宜忌)에 준해서 정전(庭前)에 오동나무 식재를 금기시했다면 어떤 위치에 식재하였는가? 셋째, 옛 사람들은 왜 오랜 기간에 걸쳐 오동을 즐겨심고 가꾸었으며, 이를 통해 어떠한 효용을 취하고자 했는가이다. 본 연구의 방법은 여러 사료들에 담긴 내용과 의미를 고찰하고 해석하는 기술(description)적 연구방법이 사용되었다. 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 백과사전류와 농서, 원예서 등 고문헌을 고찰한 결과, '오동'에 대한 설명이 편찬자에 따라 차이가 있으며, 구체적인 수종의 구분도 모호하다. 따라서 방위에 따라 '오동'의 수종을 가려서 식재하는 등의 제한이 적용되지는 않았던 것으로 판단된다. 다만 '오동'의 식재와 관련된 의기 사항은 "산림경제"가 아닌 "증보산림경제"와 "임원경제지"에서 확인할 수 있었다. 2. 옛 정원을 묘사한 시문을 통해서도 오, 동, 오동, 벽동 등의 어휘가 큰 구분 없이 사용되었음을 다시 한 번 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 실제적으로 정원에 도입된 '오동'의 수종은 오동나무와 벽오동을 비롯해 개오동나무도 활용되었을 것으로 추측된다. 3. '오동' 식재와 관련된 의기 사항이 보편적으로 적용되지는 않은 것으로 판단된다. '정전(庭前)' 즉, 뜰 앞이나 뜰 가 등 집 가까이에도 오동이 즐겨 식재되었던 것으로 판단된다. 4. 옛 정원의 정원수로서 오동의 효용성은 '가을의 전령'으로서 계절감을 강조하는 수목으로서의 역할을 하였다. 5. 오동은 일시적 경관의 정취를 더하는 수목으로서의 효용성도 있었다. 즉, 옛 사람들은 '달'과 가장 잘 어울리는 사물을 '오동'이라고 보았고, 이 둘이 병치된 운치를 즐겼다. 또 '오동'은 잎에 떨어지는 빗소리를 즐기는 등 비오는 날의 정취를 더해주는 수목 중 하나로 활용되었다. 본 연구의 한계는 많은 한문 자료 중 번역물에 국한하여 연구가 진행되었다는 점이다. 추후 연구과제는 새로운 사료의 발굴과 번역 성과물이 축적됨으로써 보다 심도 있는 연구가 필요하다는 점이다.
