We investigated the visible emission property of $SrTiO_3$ (STO) single crystals irradiated with gammy-ray (${\gamma}$-ray) at various total doses up to 900 kGy. The electric and optical absorption properties of the irradiated STO samples were hardly changed with the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation, compared with those of un-irradiated STO. In contrast, the visible emission near 550 nm increased with the ${\gamma}$-ray dose increasing. While the development of the visible emission was indicative of the increase of oxygen vacancies inside STO by the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation, the newly generated oxygen vacancies were not significantly harmful to the electric and optical properties of STO. We concluded that the STO single crystal should have a good tolerance against the damage by the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation.

The 8-methoxypsoralen$<^{4',5'}_{5',6}>$ thymidine monoadducts are isolated from the irradiation mixture of 8-methoxypsoralen and thymidine in a dry film state by a flash column followed by lobar column chromatography. Some physical properties of the adducts were determined. The fluorescence maximum and quantum yield of the monoadduct are dependent on the solvent polarity and the phosphorescence to fluorescence quantum yield ratio was 2.10 which was significantly increased by external heavy atoms. The phosphorescence lifetime was 1.2s which is relatively large compared to other coumarin derivatives. Accurate spectral data of the monoadducts are presented.

As an application of the cluster orbitals proposed previously, nickel-, palladium-, and platinum-hydrogen systems are studied. Density of states, projected density of states, HOMO levels, and stabilization energies are calculated and compared with those obtained by extended Huckel method for small clusters. These calculations are extended to large clusters to find the size dependence of several physical quantities. Reduced overlap populations are also calculated to clarify the charge transfer phenomena reported earlier. The calculated physical quantities show no dependence on the cluster size. It is also found that the charge transfer occurs due to the intrinsic character of palladium, not due to the edge effect which may be present in small clusters.

Synthesis approaches usually affect the physical and chemical properties of ferrites. This helps ferrite materials to design them for desired applications. Some of these methods are mechanical milling, ultrasonic method, micro-emulsion, co-precipitation, thermal decomposition, hydrothermal, microwave-assisted, sol-gel, etc. These methods are extensively reviewed by taking example of ZnFe₂O₄. These methods also affect the microstructure and local structure of ferrite which ultimately affect the physical and chemical properties of ferrites. Various spectroscopic techniques such as Raman spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, Ultra Violet-Visible spectroscopy, Mossbauer spectroscopy, extended x-ray absorption fine structure, and electron paramagnetic resonance are found helpful to reveal this information. Hence, the basic principle and the usefulness of these techniques to find out appropriate information in ZnFe₂O₄ nanoparticles is elaborated in this review.

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has gained widespread acceptance in sample pretreatment due to its solvent-free and easy-to-operate properties. SPME fibers are considered as a key part of SPME technique, since it primarily determines the extraction performance of the method including sensitivity, selectivity, and reproducibility. Generally speaking, target analyte with different chemical property requires fiber coating that has the best affinity towards it. Due to the lack of varieties of commercial fibers available currently, considerable efforts have been recently made to develop tailor-made fibers to fulfill increasing demands of different analysis. This paper concisely classify some SPME fiber preparation approaches such as sol-gel technology, physical deposition, molecularly imprinted technique, and their respective application in food safety analysis.

Nowadays, recycling of recycled aggregates from the waste concrete is seriously demanded for the protection of environment and the shortage of aggregates owing to the large scale construction project. In this study, for the development of polymer composite recycling recycled aggregates from the waste concrete, twenty five specimens of the polymer composite were prepared with the five levels of replacement ratios of recycled aggregates (0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) and polymer-cement ratios (0,5, 10, 15, 20%), respectively. For the evaluation of the performance of polymer composite specimens, various physical properties such as compressive and flexural strengths, water absorption, hot water resistance, total pore volume and porosity were investigated. As a result, physical properties of polymer composite were remarkably improved with an increase of polymer cement ratios, but greatly decreased with the replacement ratios of recycled aggregates.

Ginseng products on the market show high variability in their composition and overall quality. This becomes a challenge for both consumers and health-care professionals who are in search of high-quality, reliable ginseng products that have a proven safety and efficacy profile. The botanical extract standardization is of crucial importance in this context as it determines the reproducibility of the quality of the product that is essential for the evaluation of effectiveness and safety. This review focuses on the well-characterized and standardized ginseng extract, G115, which represents an excellent example of an herbal drug preparation with constant safety and efficacy within the herbal medicinal products. Over the many decades, extensive preclinical and clinical research has been conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of G115. In vitro and in vivo studies of G115 have shown pharmacological effects on physical performance, cognitive function, metabolism, and the immune system. Furthermore, a significant number of G115 clinical studies, most of them double-blind placebo-controlled, have reinforced the findings of preclinical evidence and proved the efficacy of this extract on blood glucose and lipid regulation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, energy, physical performance, and immune and cognitive functions. Clinical trials and 50 years of presence on the market are proof of a good safety profile of G115.

To make filler loaded conducting rubber which has excellent electronical and physical properties, CR and NBR were mixed with barium ferrite(BaO.6Fe2O3). From the result of this study, vulcanization characteristics shows that curve is upgraded as the filler concentration increases and CR has higher torque than NBR. In physical properties, elongation being higher, modulus comes to decrease. Tear strength gradually decrease after showing the maximum point when is in the 100phr in CR. Resilience is not good to cause the increase in filler concentration. In electrical properties, conductivity becomes low when filler concentration increase. The increase of voltage makes a conductivity grown, but the rate change is weak. The influence of temperature hardly changes on increasing temperature. The morphology and the dispersion of a conductivity filler in vulcanizates through SEM were good. The more filler concentration increases, the shorter the particle interval is.
