Embryogenic cell suspension cultures of B. striata were established as transferred selected embryogenic callus into liquid medium. Protoplasts isolated from embryogenic cell suspensions were electroporated in buffered solutions containing plasmid DNA of pBI121. Transient GUS (beta-glucuronidase) activity measurement and selection for kanamycin resistent showed that expression of foreign genes and stable transformation were achieved. GUS transient gene expression was increased by increasing DNA concentration of pBI121 plasmid and affected by the level of the applied voltage. An optimal level of GUS activity was obtained after electroporation with a pulse of 200-300 voltage/1180 uF. Protoplast viability was up to the 80% at the optimal voltage.

Most companies are achieving economic benefits by producing products in the form of bi-national products, but there are also negative consequences such as reduced brand power, so strategic bi-national product planning and branding is essential. In order to actively reflect these practical needs, this study conducted a comprehensive and easy-to-generalize evaluation of Bi-national products that has been somewhat underdeveloped in previous studies. To this end, the selection and evaluation criteria of the products to be investigated were differentiated. This is to classify the products by place of use and the purpose of use so that the majority of bi-national products can be included, and then use the combination to derive the specific products to be evaluated for bi-national products. The evaluation of the product identified the phenomenon of psychological conflict among consumers due to the country of origin discrepancy at the level of decreasing brand authenticity. The above research design is an evaluation method that can encompass bi-national products as a whole, rather than an evaluation of a specific product or product line that is mainly reported in previous studies, and it is also very easy to apply to practice because it allows us to more carefully identify changes in psychological attitudes.

The goal of this paper is to develop freeway Origin-Destination (OD) demand estimation model using VDS and AVI data. The formulation of methodology proposed in this paper includes traffic flow technique to be able to remove the bi-level problem and optimal solution algorithm using a kalman filter algorithm. The proposed dynamic OD estimation model use ilk and off-ramp volumes collected from VDS and partial OD collected from AVI data to raise the accuracy of dynamic OD estimation. The proposed model is evaluated by using the real-time data of SOHAEAN freeway, South Korea. The result of the proposed dynamic OD estimation model based on VDS and AVI data is better than that of based on VDS data. The more AVI systems are equipped at on and off-ramp, the more excellent result of estimation accuracy is expected.

The resonant bio-sensor of bi-level grating structure with mushroom profile has been designed for operating in the near-infrared (NIR) wavelength range under transverse electric (TE) polarization. The rigorous modal transmission-line theory (MTLT) is applied to determine the optical characteristics, and the reflection resonance of the grating structure is analyzed by varying their geometrical parameters. The numerical result shows that an excited sharp Fano resonance (FR), which does not occur in single layer grating, is demonstrated. The relationship between structure parameters of bi-level grating and the reflectance spectrum in order to guarantee the appearance of FR in the designed structure is fully investigated. An optical bio-sensor with a potential sensitivity of 112.9~214.3 deg/RIU and 447 nm/RIU is designed based on the proposed structure. The proposed mushroom profile may serve as a powerful sample for the design of optical bio-sensors with a wide range of applications.

Phenolics level, total flavonoid content, and antioxidant were determined from the methanol extracts of the eight medicinal plants using roots. Total phenolics were found as the highest levels in the methanol extracts of Arctium lappa, and followed by Youngia sonchifolia and Cirsium japonicum. Total amount of the each phenol compounds were detected in C. japonicum extracts ($319.2\;mg\;kg^{-1}$) as the greatest component, and followed by A. lappa ($96.3\;mg\;kg^{-1}$) and Y. sonchifolia ($22.9\;mg\;kg^{-1}$). Total flavonoid content showed the highest amount in methanol extracts from A. lappa (68.1 mg $100\;g^{-1}$) and followed by Y. sonchifolia (11.2 mg $100\;g^{-1}$) Lycoris radiate extracts (87.2%) had the highest nitrite scavenging activity and followed by A. lappa (81.5%) and Y. sonchifolia (77.5%). Methanol extracts of A. lappa at 25 mg $100\;g^{-1}$ exhibited the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity by 90.8%, even though less activity than synthetic antioxidants Vitamin C or butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). Level of polyphenols was highly correlated with anti oxidative activity ($r^2$ = 0.85). The results suggest that several medicinal plants selected had the potent biological activities, and that their activities were differential depending on plant species.

The trap levels of ZnO-based varistor are obtained by Isothermal Capacitance Transient Spectroscopy method. Here ICTS measuring system consists of YHP 4192A Impedance Analyzer and a personal computer for the data acquisition. Between $-40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$, the grain boundary trap levels of 0.48 and 0.94eV were detected for $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-MnO$ system. The hole omission spectra are observed in the case of the addition of CoO into the $ZnO-Bi_2O_3$ system, while the electron emission spectra are detected in the case of the addition of MnO. The nonlinear resistance coefficient $\alpha$ increases with the decrease of the dormer concentration. Finally, the trap level density of $ZnO-Bi_2O_3-MnO$ system is found to decrease with the amount of CoO, while $\alpha$ is found to increase with the amount of CoO.

This paper proposes a 3 kW single-phase bi-directional multi-level converter for energy storage applications. The proposed topology is based on the H-bridge structure with four switches connected to the DC-link. A simple phase opposition disposition PWM method that requires only one carrier signal is also suggested. The switching sequence to balance the capacitor voltage is considered. The topology can be extended to a nine-level converter or a three-phase system. The operating principle of the proposed converter is verified through a simulation and an experiment.

The purpose of this study is to minimize negative effect of VMS travel time information service by sensitivity analysis, which forecasts the change in link traffic volume. As a result, strategies for providing travel information that can change driving patterns for minimizing travel time were found. The framework for analysis is recently expanded with the application of game theory. According to the experiment, the algorithm generated for travel time information service reduces total travel time and yields travel patterns that is very close to the system optimization. Also, this study found that the route the travel time service information is provided about could play the important role.
