For a commutative ring with unity R, it is proved that R is a PF-ring if and only if the annihilator, $ann_R(a)$, for each $a{\in}R$ is a pure ideal in R. Also it is proved that the polynomial ring, R[x], is a PF-ring if and only if R is a PF-ring. Finally, we prove that M as an R-module is PF-module if and only if M[x] is a PF R[x]-module. Also M is a PP R-module if and only if M[x] is a PP R[x]-module.

In this paper, we show that if R is a commutative ring with identity and (S, ${\leq}$) is a strictly totally ordered monoid, then the ring [[$R^{S,{\leq}}$]] of generalized power series is a PF-ring if and only if for any two S-indexed subsets A and B of R such that $B{\subseteq}ann_R(|A)$, there exists $c{\in}ann_R(A)$ such that $bc=b$ for all $b{\in}B$, and that for a Noetherian ring R, $[[R^{S,{\leq}}$]] is a PP ring if and only if R is a PP ring.

In this study, the spalling properties of Polypropylene reinforced concrete were evaluated by the restrained ring-type test. As a result of the experiment with the fiber mixture ratio set at 0, 0.15 vol.%, The PP fiber reinforced specimen showed lower water vapor pressure as a whole than the Plain specimen, but the restraint stress was measured to be higher. This is thought to be due to the fact that higher thermal stresses were applied in the PP fiber reinforced test specimen.

A commutative ring R with unityis called EM-Hermite if for each a, b ∈ R there exist c, d, f ∈ R such that a = cd, b = cf and the ideal (d, f) is regular in R. We showed in this article that R is a PP-ring if and only if the idealization R(+)R is an EM-Hermite ring if and only if R[x]/(xⁿ⁺¹) is an EM-Hermite ring for each n ∈ ℕ. We generalize some results, and answer some questions in the literature.

Voltage step-down characteristics of Ring/Dot type piezoelectric transformer were examined with increasing input voltage from $10\;V_{pp}$ to $140V_{pp}$. Then the output load resistance was fixed to $125\;\Omega$. The voltage gain showed constant value till the input voltage of $70\;V_{pp}$. And then it linearly decreased till the input voltage of $140V_{pp}$. The output voltage of fabricated piezoelectric transformer increased with increasing input voltage. And driving frequencies when the output voltage was maximum value were changed according to input voltage. Frequency shifts and temperature rise of fabricated sample showed 2 kHz, $13^{\circ}C$, respectively when input voltage was changed from $10\;V_{pp}$ to $140V_{pp}$. Because of the temperature rise of fabricated piezoelectric transformer, the step-down characteristics of it was deteriorated above the input voltage of $70\;V_{pp}$.

The study was carried out to demonstrate the superiority of used packing in view of energy saving and efficiency of mass transfer, comparing with conventional packing. The results are as follows : 1. Owing to low Pressure drop under high load. 25mm NSW-ring, pp. can cause energy saving 2. The unique magnitudes of used packing are as follows $C_G$=5.78, m=0.67, n=0.46 3. Used packing can make high efficiency including energy saving because of low pres sure drop per the number of transfer unit. To rate the characteristic of packing, It should be carried out that the measurement of pressure drop per packing height and per the number of transfer unfit. This study demonstrated the superiority of used packing by carring out above experiment and could be used as basic reference for design and predicting efficiency of packing tower which is tilled with same packing.

Heme oxygenase is a rate-limiting enzyme in heme catabolism that cleaves heme to form biliverdin, iron, and carbon monoxide. Heme oxygenase-1 is expressed in many types of cells and tissues and is highly induced in response to oxidative stress. Carbon monoxide, one of the products of heme oxygenase, can stimulate soluble guanylate cyclase and dilate the vascular smooth muscle. So, the induction of heme oxygenase by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced oxydative stress and the effect of the resultant carbon monoxide on aortic contractility were examined in this study. Zinc protoporphyrine IX (ZnPP), a inhibitor of heme oxygenase, elicited weak contraction of thoracic aortic ring, and this effect was more potent in aorta of LPS-treated rats than control and was blocked by methylene blue. The hyperreactivity to ZnPP in LPS-treated group was blocked by co-treatment with aminoguanidine. In the aortic ring of LPS-treated rats, ZnPP didn't change the vasoreactivity to phenylephrine or acetylcholine. ZnPP elicited hyper-tensive effect in concious rats, and pretreatment with LPS did not affect this effect. Prazosin significantly diminished the hypertensive effect of ZnPP. These results indicate that LPS induced heme oxygenase in aotra, and the resultant carbon monoxide diminished the aortic reactivity to vasoconstrictor.

To examine the photosensitized biomolecules damaging activity, dimethoxyP(V)tetrakis(2-naphthyl)porphyrin (NP) and dimethoxyP(V)tetraphenylporphyrin (PP) were synthesized. The naphthyl moiety of NP hardly deactivated the photoexcited P(V)porphyrin ring in ethanol. In aqueous solution, the naphthyl moiety showed the quenching effect on the photoexcited porphyrin ring, possibly through electron transfer and self-quenching by a molecular association. Binding interaction between human serum albumin (HSA), a water soluble protein, and these porphyrins could be confirmed by the absorption spectral change. The apparent association constant of NP was larger than that of PP. It is explained by that more hydrophobic NP can easily bind into the hydrophobic pockets of HSA. The photoexcited PP effectively induced damage of the tryptophan residue of HSA, through electron transfer-mediated oxidation and singlet oxygen generation. NP also induced HSA damage during photo-irradiation and the contributions of the electron transfer and singlet oxygen mechanisms were speculated. The electron transfer-mediated mechanism to the photosensitized protein damage should be advantageous for photodynamic therapy in hypoxic condition. The quantum yield of the HSA photodamage by PP was significantly larger than that of NP. The quenching effect of the naphthyl moiety is considered to suppress the photosensitized protein damage. In conclusion, the naphthalene substitution to the P(V)porphyrins can enhance the binding interaction with hydrophobic biomacromolecules such as protein, however, this substitution may reduce the photodynamic effect of P(V)porphyrin ring in aqueous media.
