This study was conducted to investigate removal characteristics for Synedra sp. and filter run time (FRT) according to the cell length in the Nakdong River. When used alone flocculent, the removal efficiency for Synedra tenera (around $100{\mu}m$) was constant with 90.9~94.4%, while Synedra acus (around $300{\mu}m$) had the lower removal efficiency as 60~70%. $PACS_2$ and PAC showed 5~6% higher removal for S. acus than others (HiB and LAS). When added coagulant aid, loess had no effect and also needed more amount of flocculent. Sodium Silicate increased the removal rate by max 10.6%. On the other hand, 2.5 mg/L of Polyamine showed 96.9% removal efficiency for S. acus increasing up to 25% more than $PACS_2$ alone. In the effect of water temperature, the removal for S. acus at $15^{\circ}C$ were 6% higher than at $4^{\circ}C$. There was no significant correlation between the removal efficiencys of turbidity and S. acus. The results of this study was similar to the actual water treatment process's removal characteristics for Synedra sp. depending on the cell length and temperature. In the actual process, the numbers of Synedra in settled water was established natural logarithm function with the filter run time (FRT), so we can predict FRT as Synedra numbers.

Pantoea intestinalis SRCM103226, isolated from edible insect mealworm overproduces zeaxanthin as a main carotenoid. The complete genome of P. intestinalis SRCM103226 was sequenced using the Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) RS II platform. The genome of P. intestinalis SRCM103226 comprises a 4,784,919 bp circular chromosome (53.41% G+C content), and is devoid of any extrachromosomal plasmids. Annotation using the RAST server reveals 4,332 coding sequences and 107 RNAs (22 rRNA genes, 85 tRNA genes). Genome annotation analysis revealed that it has five genes involved in the carotenoid pathway. The genome information provides fundamental knowledge for comparative genomics studies of the zeaxanthin pathway.

This paper describes the development of the sensor interface and driver program for a point of care (POC) device. The proposed pac device comprises an ARM9 embedded processor and eight-channel sensor input to measure various bio-signals. It features a user-friendly interface using a full-color TFT-LCD and touch-screen, and a bluetooth wireless communication module. The proposed device is based on the system on a programmable chip (SOPC). We use Altera's Excalibur device, which has an ARM9 and FPGA area on a chip, as a test bed for the development of interface hardware and driver software.

Enterococcus faecalis CAUM157, isolated from raw cow's milk, is a Gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, and non-spore-forming bacterium capable of inhabiting a wide range of environmental niches. E. faecalis CAUM157 was observed to produce a two-peptide bacteriocin that had a wide range of activity against several pathogens, including Listeria monocytogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, and periodontitis-causing bacteria. The whole genome of E. faecalis CAUM157 was sequenced using the PacBio RS II platform, revealing a genome size of 2,972,812 bp with a G+C ratio of 37.44%, assembled into two contigs. Annotation analysis revealed 2,830 coding sequences, 12 rRNAs, and 61 tRNAs. Further, in silico analysis of the genome identified a single bacteriocin gene cluster.

Streptococcus hyointestinalis B19 was isolated from chicken feces collected from local farm in Anseong, Korea. S. hyointestinalis B19 was shown to produce bacteriocin-like compounds exhibiting inhibitory activities against several pathogens including strains of Clostridium perfringens and Listeria monocytogenes. The whole genome of S. hyointestinalis B19 strain was sequenced using PacBio RS II platform. The genome comprised four contigs with a size of 2,217,061 bp. The DNA G + C content was found to be 42.95 mol%. Annotation results revealed 2,266 coding sequences (CDSs), 18 rRNAs, and 61 tRNA genes. Based on genome analysis, we found that the strain B19 possessed various genes associated with bacteriocin synthesis, modification, and transport.

Limosilactobacillus fermentum JN2019, formerly named Lactobacillus fermentum JN2019, was isolated from kimchi. Its genome was completely sequenced using the PacBio RSII sequencing system to explore beneficial phenotypes. In a previous study, L. fermentum JN2019 was used to ferment the by-product of tumeric for use in livestock feed. The 2.3 Mb genome had a high guanine (G) + cytosine (C) content of 50.6% and a 30 kb plasmid. The data will inform the comprehensive understanding of JN2019 and provide insights for potential applications.

Bacillus coagulans CACC 834 was isolated from canine feces, and its potential probiotic properties were characterized by functional genome analysis. Whole-genome sequencing of B. coagulans CACC 834 was performed using the PacBio RSII platforms. The complete genome assembly consisted of one circular chromosome (3.1 Mb) with guanine (G) + cytosine (C) content of 47.1%. Annotation revealed 3,181 protein-coding sequences (CDSs), 30 rRNAs, and 83 tRNAs. Gene associated 11% of the genes were involved in replication, recombination, and repair. We also annotated various stress-related, acid resistance, bile salt resistance and adhesion-related domains in this strain, which likely provide support in exerting probiotic action by survival under gastrointestinal tract. These results add to our comprehensive understanding of B. coagulans and suggest potential mammal-related industrial applications.

Cynodon transvaalensis belongs to the warm-season grasses and is one of the economically and ecologically important crops. Cynodon species with high heterozygosity are difficult to assemble, so genome research has not been actively conducted. In this study, hybrid assembly was performed by sequencing with Illumina and PacBio. As a result of the assembly, the number of scaffolds and the length of N50 were 1,392, 928 kb, respectively. The completeness of the assembly was confirmed by BSUCO at 98.3%. In addition, as a result of estimating the size of the assembled genome by K-mer analysis (k=25), it was approximately ~413 Mb. A total of 37,060 cds sequences were annotated in the assembled genome, and their functions were identified through blast. After that, we try to complete the assembled genome into a pseudochromosome-level genome through Hi-C technology. These results will not only help to understand the complex genome composition of african bermudagrass, but also provide a resource for genomic and evolutionary studies of grass and other plant species.
