A Pn10 DNA probe was introduced as a Prevotella nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$-specific DNA probe. In that study, the specificity of the Pn10 was tested with only type or reference strains of 5 oral bacterial species. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the specificity of the Pn10 using the wild type strains of P. nigrescens and is to develop the P. nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$-specific PCR primers based on the nucleotide sequence of the Pn10. The specificity of the Pn10 DNA probe was determined by Southern blot analysis. The nucleotide sequence of Pn10 DNA probes was determined by chain termination method. The PCR primers were designed based on the nucleotide sequence of cloned DNA fragment. The data showed that Pn10 DNA probe were hybridized with the genomic DNAs from P. nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$ and KB6. The Pn10 homologous region, KB6-Pn10, of P. nigrescens KB6 was cloned by PCR and sequenced. The Pn10 and KB6-Pn10 DNA fragments were consisted of 1,875 bp and 1,873 bp, respectively. The percent identity of the two was 98.8% and the divergence of them was 0.6%. The two primer sets (Pn10-F-AC/ Pn10-R-AC and Pn10-F-A/ Pn10-R-A), designed base on the nucleotide sequences of Pn10 DNA probe, were specific to the P. nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$. The two PCR primer sets could detect as little as 4 pg of genomic DNA of P. nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$. These results indicate that the two PCR primer sets have proven useful for the identification of P. nigrescens ATCC $33563^T$, especially with regard to the maintenance of the strain.

To make the genomic DNA probe of Theileria sergenti, the merozoites were purified from bovine erythrocytes. The infected erythrocytes were lysed by Aeromonas hydrophila(Ah-1) hemolysin, and the parasites were isolated by ultracentrifugation on a Percoll discontinuous density gradient. For construction of a T sergenti genomic DNA library, T sergenti DNA was digested with Pstl and the fragments were ligated into the PstI site of pUC19 before transformation of Escherichia coli JM83. Out of thousands of transformants obtained by transformation of E coli JM83 with the genomic library, three plasmids were chosen. The sizes of the inserted DNAs were 2.9kb(2.4kb and 0.5kb) in pKTS1, 4.3kb in pKTS2 and 1.5kb in pKTS3, respectively. The DNA fragments used as probe KTS1(2.4kb), KTS2(4.3kb) and KTS3(1.5kb) were labeled digoxigenin-11-dUTP for the Southern hybridization. In Southern hybridization, all of the probes(KTS1, KTS2 and KTS3) reacted specifically to T sergenti DNA, but not to bovine leucocyte DNA. In order to find out the sensitivities of the digoxigenin-11-dUTP-labeled KTS1 and KTS3 as the probes, purified merozoite DNA and bovine DNA (control) were checked by dot blot hybridization with the probes. Both of the probes, KTS1 and KTS3, detected as minimum amount of 975pg of the T sergenti DNA, but not bovine DNA even to 500ng.

Detection of exon 19 deletion mutation in the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene, which results in increased and sustained phosphorylation of EGFR, is important for diagnosis and treatment guidelines in non-small-cell lung cancer. Here, we have developed a simple and convenient detection system using the interaction between G-quadruplex and fluorophore thioflavin T (ThT) for discriminating EGFR exon 19 deletion mutant DNA from wild type without a label and quencher. In the presence of exon 19 deletion mutant DNA, the probe DNAs annealed to the target sequences were transformed into G-quadruplex structure. Subsequent intercalation of ThT into the G-quadruplex resulted in a light-up fluorescence signal, which reflects the amount of mutant DNA. Due to stark differences in fluorescence intensity between mutant and wild-type DNA, we suggest that the induced G-quadruplex structure in the probe DNA can report the presence of cancer-causing deletion mutant DNAs with high sensitivity.

Nowadays, networked computer systems play an increasingly important role in our society and its economy. They have become the targets of a wide array of malicious attacks that invariably turn into actual intrusions. This is the reason computer security has become an essential concern for network administrators. Recently, a number of Detection/Prevention System schemes have been proposed based on various technologies. However, the techniques, which have been applied in many systems, are useful only for the existing patterns of intrusion. Therefore, probe detection has become a major security protection technology to detection potential attacks. Probe detection needs to take into account a variety of factors ant the relationship between the various factors to reduce false negative & positive error. It is necessary to develop new technology of probe detection that can find new pattern of probe. In this paper, we propose an hybrid probe detection using Fuzzy Cognitive Map(FCM) and Self Adaptive Module(SAM) in dynamic environment such as Cloud and IoT. Also, in order to verify the proposed method, experiments about measuring detection rate in dynamic environments and possibility of countermeasure against intrusion were performed. From experimental results, decrease of false detection and the possibilities of countermeasures against intrusions were confirmed.

In the present study, oligonucleotide probes based on 16S rRNA were taken to investigate the diversity of oral spirochetes without culture method. This is the first study that revealed oral spirochetes of both presently cultivable and uncultured oral spirochetes in Korean adult periodontitis patients. Subgingival plaque samples were taken from diseased sites(probing depth ${\geq}6\;mm$, experimental group, n=116) and healthy sites(probing depth${\leq}3mm$, control 1 group, n=28) in 29 patients with adult periodontitis, and from 20 periodontally healthy subjects(probing depth${\leq}3mm$, control 2 group, n=100). Following being examined under phase-contrast microscope, all samples were submitted to dot-blot hybridization after polymerase chain reacton with eubacterial primers. 5 species-specific probes(TVIN, TDEN, TMAL, TSOC, and TPEC) and 7 group-specific probes(TRE I, TRE II, TRE III, TRE IV, TRE V, TRE VI, and TRE VII) were used one by one for the identification of both cultivable and so far uncultivable oral spirochetes. All probes were labeled with digoxigenin(DIG)-ddUTP and detected by chemilumininescence. The following results were obtained. 1. Under phase-contrast microscope, 91.37% and 14.28% of oral spirochetes were observed in the experimental and control 1 groups, respectively. None of oral spirochetes were observed in control 2 group. 2. With universal probe, 98.27%, 46.42%, and 22.0% of oral spirochetes were observed in experimental, control 1, and control 2 groups, respectively. 3. With specific probe, 95.68%, 35.71%, and 19.0% of oral spirochetes were observed in experimental, control 1, and control 2 groups, respectively. 4. With species-specific probes, T. socranskii were recovered in a high percentage of sites(81.89%) examined, followed by T. maltophilum(50.0%), T. vincentii(36.20%), T. denticola(13.79%), respectively. With group- specific probes, TRE IV was recovered in a high percentage of sites(85.34%) examined, followed by TRE II(77.58%), TRE I(56.89%), TRE III(25.86%), TRE VI(5.17%), and TRE V(2.58%), respectively. 5. T. vincentii were only observed in the diseased sites, not in the healthy sites. 6. Neither T. pectinovorum nor group VII oral spirochetes were observed in any sites. The findings warrant further investgations of the recovered spirochetes to elucidate the possible associations of oral spirochetal prevalence in race and types of periodontitis, pathogenesis of T. vincentii and the possible distributional change of oral spirochetes before and after treatments.

The flight control of the T-50 advanced trainer is conducted by the digital FBW (Flight-by-Wire) control system. The system input data consist of flight conditions such as altitude, airspeed, and angle of attack. And the flight conditions of the aircraft are obtained from IMFP (Integrated Multi-Function Probe). The T-50 aircraft equip three IMFP sensors. To ensure reliability in flight condition data obtained from each IMFP sensor, the mean value of flight conditions is used as the input of the control system. In this study, the effect of an installation angle of IMFP sensors on estimation of flight altitude was investigated by flight test results in the supersonic region.

Three non-ionic and two anioinic spin probes, differing in size and substituent, were synthesized. Their mobility in dried nylon 6 film was investicated by the spin probe technique using electron spin resonance spectrometer. When the size of a spin probe was large and the interaction between the probe molecules and polymer chains existed, the mobility of spin probes decreased. From Arrhenius plots of rotational correlation time, one discontinuity point ($T_d$) was determined. The activation energies for rotation below and above $T_d$ were discussed in terms of the mode of probe rotation. Three spin probes could be viewed as azo dyes having a built-in nitroxide radical. Photolysis of them in dimethylformamide and in nylon 6 film was performed by exposure to 254 nm UV light in the presence of air. It was found that dyes having a built-in nitroxide radical showed better photostability than dyes derived from ${\bata}-naphthol$..
