  • In this study, a cotton knit was dyed with elm bark extract; subsequently, the dyed fabric was measured according to the types of mordants and the preprocessing cationizers used. Additionally, antibiosis against super bacteria was examined. The results follow. First, the color of the dyed cotton knit appeared reddish and yellowish for fabrics treated with non-mordants and mordants. When preprocessing with a cationizer was conducted, the dyeing properties were the best. Second. even when mordants were not used for dyeing, color fastness after washing, sweating, and rubbing was generally good Grade 4 and 5. Color fastness after exposure to sunlight was the best Grade 4 for fabric prepared with ferrous sulfate as the mordant. Third. as for antimicrobial properties, or resistance to super bacteria, the growth of bacteria was suppressed in a meaningful way for fabrics treated with non-mordants and mordants, compared to the control group fabric. The dyeing methods with the most powerful antimicrobial effects were dyeing after preprocessing with a cationizer and preparing fabric with copper sulfate as the mordant. The results stated above show that in case of dyeing with elm bark extract, preprocessing of the cotton knit with a cationizer and dying with copper mordant displayed high levels of antimicrobial properties that were useful for resisting super bacteria. Of these the dyeing properties were the best when preprocessing with a cationizer.

  • As the appearances of various new mobile devices and the explosive growth of mobile device users, many researches related to mobile P2P systems have been proceeded actively. In this paper, we propose a new search algorithm for the double-layered super peer system in the mobile environment. For the proposed search algorithm, we divide the entire experiment region into a grid of cells, each of which has the same size. The grid is configured properly by considering the communication range of a mobile device and the number of peers in the system. The proposed search algorithm is a partial flooding search method based on the directions of cells involved with the search. It reduces successfully the network traffic, but shows a low search hit ratio. To enhance the search hit ratio, we introduce a bridge-peer table for a super peer and utilize an n-way search. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm made an average of 20~30% reduction in the number of message packets over the double-layered system. The success ratio was also improved about 2~5% over the double-layered system.

  • This study was aimed to compare the relative cytotoxicity of the five common orthodontic bonding materials (Concise. Mon-lok, Ortho-One, Super C, Transbond) using cell culture technique. DNA synthesis of the fibroblasts was assessed by $^3H$-thymidine uptake to evaluate the effect of the bonding materials on the growth of the cells. The human gingival fibroblasts were explanted from the buccal gingiva of 10 year-old girl and cultured in $\alpha$-MEM/10% FBS/1% antibiotics medium, $37^{\circ}C$, 5% $CO_2$ incuvator. The gingival fibroblasts were tested with the medium into which the bonding materials had been soaked for 1 week. Or the bonding materials were placed on the cells immediately or 2 weeks after polymerization. After 22 hours, $^3H$-thymidine was added into the microtest wells and after 24 hours, the uptake of $^3H$-thymidine was determined by liquid scintilation counter. The results of this study were as follows. 1. DNA synthesis was significantly decreased with Super C and Transbond than Ortho-One, when treated with medium into which the bonding materials had been soaked for 1 week. 2. DNA synthesis was significantly decreased with Concise, Super C and Transbond than control, when treated immediately after polymerization. 3. DNA syntehsis was significantly decreased with Concise, Super C and Transbond than Ortho-One, when immediately after polymerization. 4. There was no significant difference in DNA synthesis between the bonding materials, when treated 2 weeks after polymerization.

  • Low-quality soil for land reuse is a crucial problem in vegetation quality and especially to waste disposal sites in mining areas. It is necessary to find suitable materials to improve the soil quality and especially to increase soil microbial diversity and activity. In this study, pot experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of a mixed material of humic acid, super absorbent polymer and biochar on low-quality soil indexes and the microbial community response. The indexes included soil physicochemical properties and the corresponding plant growth. The results showed that the mixed material could improve chemical properties and physical structure of soil by increasing the bulk density, porosity, macro aggregate, and promote the mineralization of nutrient elements in soil. The best performance was achieved by adding 3 g·kg-1 super absorbent polymer, 3 g·kg-1 humic acid, and 10 g·kg-1 biochar to soil with plant total nitrogen, dry weight and height increased by 85.18%, 266.41% and 74.06%, respectively. Physicochemical properties caused changes in soil microbial diversity. Acidobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Chloroflexi, Cyanobacteria, Firmicutes, Nitrospirae, Planctomycetes, and Proteobacteria were significantly positively correlated with most of the physical, chemical and plant indicators. Actinobacteria and Armatimonadetes were significantly negatively correlated with most measurement factors. Therefore, this study can contribute to improving the understanding of low-quality soil and how it affects soil microbial functions and sustainability.

  • This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of sulfur containing fertilizers on growth, yield and nutritive quality of soybean as affected by lime application at reclaimed soil. Lime application for neutralization requirements showed the effect of increased grain yield about 32% compared to the non application at newly opened land of red and yellow soil. In case of lime application, the sulfur containing fertilizers combined with super phosphate, ammonium sulfate, and gypsum increased the grain yield by 31%, 11%, and 3%, respectively. When lime was not applied, magnesium carbonate application increased the yield by 47%, super phosphate by 22%, and gypsum by 15%. The protein content of grain was higher at lime application than those of non lime application and was increased by the application of sulfur containing fertilizer. But lipid content was not affected by lime or sulfur application. From the above results obtained it was concluded that sulfur fertilizer effect under lime application was significant when combined with super phosphate or ammonium sulfate application. Magnesium carbonate or super phosphate application was the best combination with sulfur-containing fertilizer.

  • This study was performed to compare the effect of enrichement of rotifer and Artemia fed marine bacteria (Erythrobacter sp. S$\pi$-1) with those fed the different diets-(Super Selco, $\omega$-yeast and marine Chlorella) on the slime flounder larvae, Microstomus achne. Because the ratio of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to fatty acids in rotifer (dry weight $\%$) fed on Super Selco and ESP-SR including Erythrobacter sp. S$\pi$-1 was higher than that in rotifer fed marine Chlorella, the growth of the slime larvae fed the former showed better than the latter. And the ratio of DHA and highly unsaturated fatty acid (n-3 HUFA) to fatty acids in Artemia (dry weight $\%$) enriched by ESP-A including Erythrobacter sp. S$\pi$-1 were also higher than those in Artemia enriched by others or Artemia without enrichment. Larvae fed on Artemia enriched by ESP-A showed better growth and survival rate than those fed on Artemia enriched by others or Artemia without enrichment. With regard to dietary value of Erythrobacter sp. S$\pi$-1, its use could improve the quality of the live foods for the slime flounder larvae.

  • This study was conducted to evaluate the growth characteristics, phenolic concentration and antioxidant capacity of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) and amaranth (Amaranthus spp.) sprout and investigate the possibility of using super absorbent polymer (SAP) as a medium in hydroponic cultivation in a plant factory. The control was used a commercial sprout cultivation tool (19 × 14 × 9 cm, W × D × L), and a treatment (SAP) was added on the cultivation tool to compare the effect of SAP. Safflower sprouts were immersed in a distilled water at 30 ℃ for 5 hours, and then grown in a plant growth chamber. The temperature and relative humidity were maintained at 25 ± 1℃ and 70 ± 4%, respectively. The light condition was maintained at 35 ± 6 μmol·m-2·s-1 (12h). Amaranth sprouts were grown in a plant growth chamber maintained with temperature of 25 ± 2℃, relative humidity of 70 ± 5% and light condition of 188 ± 10 μmol·m-2·s-1 (16h). A physical and chemical characteristic of SAP, and a germination rate, growth characteristics and secondary metabolites were analyzed in both safflower and amaranth. There was no significant effect on SAP in a germination rate, growth and secondary metabolites of safflower compared to the control, whereas amaranth grown under SAP was higher in germination rate, dry weight, phenolic concentration, and antioxidant capacity compared to the control. As a result, this study was suggested that cultivation of sprouts using SAP would be possible in a plant factory, and further studies on SAP on plant physiological response are required.

  • This experiment was conducted to study the effect of soil water potenial on the growth and internal changes of stressed plants. The experimental imposition of soil water potential ( $\Psi$soil) were -0.1 to -0.2, -0.2 to -0.5, -0.5 to -3.0, -3.0 to -10.0 bar respectively. During water stress all growth rates were depressed, and the most sensitive period to water stress was found to be 10 to 25 days after transplanting. The water potential of leaf was declined rapidly within 12 hours after with holding of water. Nitrate reductase activity was decreased progressively as water deficit was built up in tobacco leaves, but the activity of alpha- amylase and super contents were increased. There were differences in peroxidase isozyme patterns between tile control and water stressed plant. New isozymes started to appear as tobacco leaf water potential decreased.

  • We studied the growth of large-grain pentacene film by organic vapour phase deposition. The optimizations of the growth of pentacene are carried out by varying the gas pressure in the reactor and substrate temperature. We found that the grain size depends strongly on the gas pressure in the reactor. The grain size of $20{\mu}m$ has been obtained at the gas pressure of 200 Torr. The film was found to be strongly (001) oriented and its grain size decreases with decreasing the gas pressure.

  • In the urban area where rapid suburbanization trend continues, the role of mixed use building is controversial. It is argued that the mixed use building is an effective tool to recover residential function of urban core(urban regeneration). It is also argued that the building is a cause of serious urban problems, such as congestion, public service shortages. The fundamental purpose of this study is to examine the role of mixed use building in terms of urban growth management in Seoul. For this purpose, data of mixed use building from 1981 to 2007 are collected and analysed. The results show that most of mixed use buildings are located in either sub-centers or population losing areas, rather than traditional urban core. Therefore, it is hard to accept that the two controversial arguments. The mixed use building noncore areas in most cases. However, it dose help to increase population inflow in non-core areas. it is difficult to accept the public service assertion which states that super-high rise mixed use building causes public service congestion, because the building is built in population losing or demand decreasing area. Based on these findings this study suggests some policy alternatives such as urban service boundary or concurrency program to management urban growth.
