The electrochemical spike oscillations at the nickel (Ni) electrode/(0.05M KHC$_{8}$H$_{4}$O$_{4}$) buffer solution (pH 9) interface have been studied using voltammetric and chronoamperometric methods. The nature of the periodic cathodic current spikes is the activation controlled currents due to the hydrogen evolution reaction and depends onthe fractioanl surface coverage of the adsorbed hydrogen intermediate or the cathodic potential. There is two kinds of the waveforms corresponding to two kinds of the cathodic current spike oscillations. The widths, periods, and amplitudes of the cathodic current spikes are 4 ms or 5ms, 151 ms or 302 ms, and < 30 mA or < 275 mA, respectively.

The approximate rates and stoichiometry of the reaction of excess potassium 2-thexyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinane hydride(KTDBNH) with 55 selected compounds containing representative functional groups under standardized conditions (tetrahydrofuran, TEX>$0^{\circ}C$, reagent : compound=4 : 1) was examined in order to define the characteristics of the reagent for selective reductions. Benzyl alcohol and phenol evolve hydrogen immediately. However, primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols evolve hydrogen slowly, and the rate of hydrogen evolution is in order of $1^{\circ}$> $2^{\circ}$> $3^{\circ}$. n-Hexylamine is inert toward the reagent, whereas the thiols examined evolve hydrogen rapidly. Aldehydes and ketones are reduced rapidly and quantitatively to give the corresponding alcohols. Cinnamaldehyde is rapidly reduced to cinnamyl alcohol, and further reduction is slow under these conditions. The reaction with p-benzoquinone dose not show a clean reduction, but anthraquinone is cleanly reduced to 9,10-dihydro-9,10-anthracenediol. Carboxylic acids liberate hydrogen immediately, further reduction is very slow. Cyclic anhydrides slowly consume 2 equiv of hydride, corresponding to reduction to the caboxylic acid and alcohol stages. Acid chlorides, esters, and lactones are rapidly and quantitatively reduced to the corresponding carbinols. Epoxides consume 1 equiv hydride slowly. Primary amides evolve 1 equiv of hydrogen readily, but further reduction is slow. Tertiary amides are also reduced slowly. Both aliphatic and aromatic nitriles consume 1 equiv of hydride rapidly, but further hydride uptake is slow. Analysis of the reaction mixture with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine yields 64% of caproaldehyde and 87% of benzaldehyde, respectively. 1-Nitropropane utilizes 2 equiv of hydride, one for hydrogen evolution and the other for reduction. Other nitrogen compounds examined are also reduced slowly. Cyclohexanone oxime undergoes slow reduction to N-cyclohexylhydroxyamine. Pyridine ring is slowly attacked. Disulfides examined are reduced readily to the correponding thiols with rapid evolution of 1 equiv hydrogen. Dimethyl sulfoxide is reduced slowly to dimethyl sulfide, whereas the reduction of diphenyl sulfone is very slow. Sulfonic acids only liberate hydrogen quantitatively without any reduction. Finally, cyclohexyl tosylate is inert to this reagent. Consequently, potassium 2-thexyl-1,3,2-dioxaborinane hydride, a monoalkyldialkoxyborohydride, shows a unique reducing characteristics. The reducing power of this reagent exists somewhere between trialkylborohydrides and trialkoxyborohydride. Therefore, the reagent should find a useful application in organic synthesis, especially in the field of selective reduction.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between cognitive and motor inhibition by comparing muscle activity and ground reaction force during unplanned gait termination according to reaction time measured through the stop-signal task. Methods: Sixteen young adults performed a stop-signal task and an unplanned gait termination separately. The subjects were divided into fast and slow groups based on their stop-signal reaction time (SSRT), as measured by the stop-signal task. Electromyography (EMG) and ground reaction force (GRF) were compared between the groups during unplanned gait termination. The data for gait termination were divided into three phases (Phase 1 to 3). The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare spatiotemporal gait parameters and EMG and GRF data between groups. Results: The slow group had significantly higher activity of the tibialis anterior in Phase 2 and Phase 3 than the fast group (p <0.05). In Phase 1, the fast group had significantly shorter time to peak amplitude (TPA) of the soleus than the slow group (p <0.05). In Phase 2, the TPA of the tibialis anterior was significantly lower in the fast group than the slow group (p <0.05). In Phase 3, there was no significant difference in the GRF between the two groups (p >0.05). There were no significant difference between the two groups in the spatiotemporal gait parameters (p >0.05). Conclusion: Compared to the slow group, the fast group with cognitive inhibition suppressed muscle activity for unplanned gait termination. The association between SSRT and unplanned gait termination shows that a participant's ability to suppress an incipient finger response is relevant to their ability to construct a corrective gait pattern in a choice-demanding environment.

pMOSFET having 10 ${\mu}um$ thickness Gd layer has been tested to be used as a slow neutron sensor. The total thermal neutron cross section for the Gd is 47,000 barns and the cross section value drops rapidly with increasing neutron energy. When slow neutrons are incident to the Gd layer, the conversion electrons are emitted by the neutron absorption process. The conversion electrons generate electron-hole pairs in the $SiO_2$ layer of the pMOSFET. The holes are easily trapped in Oxide and act as positive charge centers in the $SiO_2$ layer. Due to the induced positive charges, the threshold turn-on voltage of the pMOSFET is changed. We have found that the voltage change is proportional to the accumulated slow neutron dose, therefore the pMOSFET having a Gd nuclear reaction layer can be used for a slow neutron dosimeter. The Gd-pMOSFET were tested at HANARO neutron beam port and $^{60}CO$ irradiation facility to investigate slow neutron response and gamma response respectively. Also the pMOSFET without Gd layer were tested at same conditions to compare the characteristics to the Gd-pMOSFET. From the result, we have concluded that the Gd-pMOSFET is very sensitive to the slow neutron and can be used as a slow neutron dosimeter. It can also be used in a mixed radiation field by subtracting the voltage change value of a pMOSFET without Gd from the value of the Gd-pMOSFET.

The effect on the hydration of cement was that Cu and Pb reacted with alkali to form soluble hydrates at theinitial stage and then there followed a slow reaction forming insoluble metal hydroxides. These hydroxides were deposited on the surface of cement particles providing a barrier against further hydration. But as a slow reaction continued, the insoluble layers were eventually destroyed and the hydration reaction resumed. Thereafter, another retardation occured by restricting the polymerization of silicates, shown by FT-IR spectroscopy analysis. In the case of Cr, as its reaction with cement caused H2O, the coordinator of Cr complex, to replace or polymerize with OH-, the formation of Cr complex promoted the leakage of OH- and increased the heat of dissolution. So the total heat evolution during hydration was larger than that in the case of Pb or Cu. The retarding effect of heavy metal ions was in the order Pb>Cu>Cr.

This study was conducted to investigate the physiological characteristics and to isolate plasmid DNA of R. japonicum strains. The results obtained were as follows; Strains S117, S118, 005, 011 and DY-1 were slow-growers and showed alkaline reaction, whereas strains S110, S111, S114, S116, S120 and 010 were fast-growers and produced acid reaction in YEM broth. All the fast- and slow-growing R. japonicum showed gram negative and formed mucous white colony on agar plate. After 7 days, the colonies of the fast-growers were between 2.0 and 4.0mm in diameter, whereas those of slow-growers were approximately between 0.5 and 1.5mm. The fast-growers were uniformly sensitive to the pH of 4.5 and tolerant of the pH of 9.5, whereas the reverse was found for the slow-growers. All the fast-growers were able to grow in the presence of 2% NaCl however the slow-growers were not grown. All the microorganisms grew rapidly in simple mineral salt medium containing as the sole source of carbon. Starch was rarely utilized. All the fast-growers utilized sucrose. The slow-growing R. japonicum strains examined usually contained 1 to 3 plasmid DNA ranging between 15Kb and 250 Kb, whereas the fast-growing R. japonicum strains contained 1 to 3 plasmid DNA ranging from 20 Kb to 250Kb.

Woolastonite from Susan occurs as intercalations in limestone beds of Lower Paleozoic Joseon Supergroup. It is a thermal metamorphic product of impure limestone. Electron microprobe analysis shows that it is considerably pure wollastonite. It has triclinic cell with a=7.932$\AA$, b=7.328$\AA$, c=7.069$\AA$, $\alpha$=89.995$^{\circ}$, $\beta$=$95.255^{\circ}$, and $ \Upsilon=103.367^{\circ}$.Dissolution behaviors of wollastonite have been studied conducting three different dissolution experiments; two different reactions with HC1 (one batch and one re-initialization experiment) and one traction with distilled water. In the batch type powder wollastonite-HCl reaction, pH of solution rapidly increases in the early stage and then its rate of increase slows down to reach plateau resulting in parabolic relationship with time. It is represented by the early rapid rise and fall in pH giving a sharp pH-edge and succeeding slow rise in the re-initialization experiment. The early rapid rise in pH is due to the rapid sorption of H- in solution to oxygens on the reactive surface of wollastonite and the fall in pH means that all reactive surface sites are occupied by H- ions and no more H- adsorption occurs. The slow rise in pH following the pH- edge is due to the dissolution of wollastonite as evidenced by the correlation of pH variation and cation concentration. Dissolution of powder wollastonite in HCl shows linear trend with time. Si is dissolved predominantly over Ca at a constant rate. Ca is dissolved predominantly in the very early stage. Dissolution rate of coarse-grained wollastonite fragments in distilled water is parabolic with times howing a rapid reaction in the early stage and a slow reaction in the advanced stage. The Ca/Si ratio in solution is high in the case of coarse-grained wollastonite fragment as compared with powder wollastonite. The coarse-grained wollastonite fragment-water (acid) reaction resulted in the solution with an elevated constant pH value (alkaline) giving an important significance on the environmental view point.

A time-resolved probe beam deflection (PBD) technique was employed to study the energy relaxation dynamics of photofragments produced by photodissociation of $CH_3I$ at 266 nm. Under 500 torr argon environment, experimental PBD transients revealed two energy relaxation processes; a fast relaxation process occurring within an acoustic transit time (less than 0.2 ㎲ in this study) and a slow relaxation process with the relaxation time in several tens of ㎲. The fast energy relaxation of which signal intensity depended linearly on the excitation laser power was assigned to translational-to-translational energy transfer from the photofragments to the medium. As for the slow process, the signal intensity depended on square of the excitation laser power, and the relaxation time decreased as the photofragment concentration increased. Based on experimental findings and reaction rate constants reported previously, the slow process was assigned to methyl radical recombination reaction. In order to determine the rate constant for methyl radical recombination reaction, a theoretical equation of the PBD transient for a radical recombination reaction was derived and used to fit the experimental results. By comparing the experimental PBD curves with the calculated ones, the rate constant for methyl recombination is determined to be $3.3({\pm}1.0)\;{\times}\;10^6\;s^{-1}torr^{-1}$ at 295 ± 2 K in 500 torr Ar.

This study was undertaken to assess the effects of demethylchlortetracycline on bone growth of mandibular symphyseal region in rats. Demethylchlortetracycline at 30mg/kg body weight, respectively, were daily administered by mouth to the sewen female rats from 10th day of pregnancy to 13th day. Thirty six new-born rats from these experimental animals were used for histological examination at 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 days. All these new-born rats were killed by an overdose of ether. Mandibular bodies were removed and fixed in $10\%$ neutral formalin,. Carney and aceton. Specimens were embedded, sectioned and stained with H-E, Van Gieson, PAS and prepared for alkaline phosphatase. The results were as follows; 1. Until erupting of incisors, hyaline cartilage was located in relatively large symphyseal space, but bone trabeculae of ossifying area at incisal side were arranged irregularly in experimental group. 2. During this period, PAS reaction was moderately positive, but alkaline phosphatase reaction was slightly positive. 3. By erupting or incisors, symphyseal space appeared narrower like control group, but alkaline phosphatase reaction tended to slow down. 4. By erupting of molars, symphyseal space appeared muck narrower, and cartilane plate was reduced and aealed off like control group. Alkaline phosphatase reaction tended to slow down severely.

This paper describes the results of study on reaction of insensitive igniter in which a pyrosensor is automatically sensing the rate of risk of fire or explosion of solid rocket motor exposed to an unexpected fire and makes the rocket motor burn itself safely. The Slow Cook Off(SCO) test following the regulation of MIL-STD-2105D was carried out with a rocket motor loaded with HTPB propellant, in which a thermal pyrosensor igniter was installed. The auto-ignition temperature measured was approximately $140^{\circ}C$ and it corresponded to Type V(Burning) reaction in SCO test, while the temperature by Kissinger equation was calculated to be $165.5^{\circ}C$.
