A total of 90 isolates of Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. melonis, the causal agent of oriental melon (Cucumis melo var. makuwa) wilt, was isolated from symptomatic tissues of oriental melon from 4 provinces in Korea. These isolates were grouped into vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) by demonstrating heterokaryosis through complementation using nitrate nonutilizing (nit) mutants. No self-incompatibility was observed in any of isolates. All isolates were grouped into 3 VCGs ; A, B, and C. iSOLATES BELONGING TO VCG A and VCG B accounted for 87% and 91% of the fungal population collected in 1991 and 1993, respectively. As the increment of cultivation period in the same field, the proportion of isolates belonging to VCG B increased whereas that of isolates belonging to VCG A decreased. Mean virulence of a total population increased as the increment of cultivation period in the same field. Isolates belonging to VCG B showed the highest increment of virulence. These data suggest that replanting of a host plant in the same field may cause increase of virulence in the pathogens. Furthermore, virulence of F. oxysporum f.sp. melonis isolates is related to the VCGs.

The average life span is over 80 years of age, and various biomaterials have being studied. Many research institutes and companies around the world have been commercializing bioactive glass through R&D, however, there is not much research in Korea. Most bioactive glass is applied to bone regeneration in powder form due to its excellent bio-compatibility. Recently, new applications such as scaffolds for tissue engineering and nerve regeneration have been found in composite form. The global market size is not as large as US $ 556 million in 2019, but the growth rate is very high at a CAGR of 14.35 %. This field is waiting for the challenge of new researchers.

We analyzed 88 strains of Gibberella fujikuroi (Analmorph: Fusarium section Liseola) from maize in Korea for mating population, mating type, fumonisin production vegetative compatibility, and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) patterns. We found 50 strains that were MATA-2, 22 that were MATA-1, 1 that was MATD-1, and 15 that were not reproducibly fertile with any of the mating type testers. Of the 50 MATA-2, 15 were female fertile, while 10 of the 22 MATA-1 strains were female fertile. A total of 1,138 nitrate non-utilizing (nit) mutants were recovered from a total of 88 strains. These strains were grouped into 39 vegetative compatability groups (VCGs) by demonstrating heterokaryosis between nit mutants. A single maize ear could be infected by more than one VCG of F. moniliforme. RAPD analysis measured genetic diversity among 63 strains of F. moniliforme. Several VCGs were distinguished by RAPD fingerprinting patterns. Most strains produced significant levels of fumonisins. However, 6 MATA-2 strains from a single VCG produced higher levels of fumonisin $\textrm{B}_3$ than that of fumonisin $\textrm{B}_1$ or $\textrm{B}_2$. From these data, we concluded that most Korean strains of F. moniliforme associated with maize belonged to mating population A and produced significant levels of fumonisins. Futhermore, RAPD analysis could differentiate strains associated with different VCGs.

가소제는 가공성 및 연성과 같은 기계적 특성에 바람직한 영향을 미치기 위해 중합체에 첨가되는 화학 첨가제이다. 본 논문에서는 플라스틱 시장에서 전통적으로 사용되어온 프탈레이트 기반 가소제를 대체할 수 있는 친환경 가소제의 사용과 시장에 대해 탐구한다. 바이오 가소제는 주로 농산물, 부산물 및 폐기물을 포함하는 바이오 매스 소스에서 파생된다. 바이오 매스 공급원과 관계없이 이상적인 친환경 가소제는 무독성이며, 휘발·추출·이행 현상에 대한 저항성이 높고, 상용성과 혼화성이 좋으며, 경제적이어야 한다. 글로벌 바이오 가소제 시장은 2020년 13억 달러에서 2030년까지 21억 달러에 이를 것으로 전망되며, 2021년에서 2030년까지 5.31% CAGR로 성장할 것으로 예상된다.

Vegetative compatibility groups (VCGs) of Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. radicis-lycopersici isolates collected from tomatoes in Korea were analyzed to determine the genetic characteristics and compared to those of foreign isolates. In comparison of VCG specificity with foreign VCG subgroup testers, Korean isolates were revealed to be VCG 0094 and to be similar to those of Israel and Florida, USA having a 'Universal' property. Results of this study will contribute the effective control of disease through precise estimation of fungal damage, the prediction of new pathogenic isolates appearance, and the movement of foreign pathogens.

As Korean government has activated the renewable portfolio standard (RPS) since 2012, producers have been seeking and using the various renewable resources to meet the RPS quota. One of these efforts, Power Bio-Fuel oil demonstration project is being conducted to check the operability and compatibility with fossil fuel, Fuel oil (B-C) from 2014. The oil is a mixture of vegetable oil and animal fat or fatty acid ester of them and should satisfy some specification to use the power generation. The oil's quality and combustion characteristics are different from conventional oil, Fuel oil (B-C) in current power plant facility. In this study, it was investigated the storage stability and malodor intensity of Bio-Fuel oil.

형상기억합금(SMA : Shape Memory Alloy)은 일반적인 금속이나 합금에서는 찾아볼 수 없는 형상기억효과(shape memory effect)와 초탄성 (superelasticity) 거동을 보이고 있다. 이러한 특성은 1951년에 금-카드뮴(Au-Cd) 합금에서 처음으로 발견되었으며, 1963년에 미국 해군병기연구소(Naval Ordnance Laboratory)에서 니켈-티타늄 (Ni-Ti) 합금에서 형상기억효과를 발견한 후로 널리 상용화되었다. 니티놀(nitinol)이라고 불려지는 니켈-티타늄 계열의 형상기억합금은 단위 부피당 많은 에너지를 낼 수 있고, 내 부식성(corrosion resistance)과 생화학적 적합성(bio-compatibility)이 뛰어나다. 또한 100,000사이클 이상의 긴 사용수명을 갖기 때문에 작동기(actuator)로서 우수한 특징을 갖는다.

본 논문은 기존의 소프트웨어가 멀티코어기반의 모바일 디바이스를 인지할 수 있도록 태스크 병렬화 시스템(BioMP)을 제안한다. 애플리케이션 개발자가 기존의 소프트웨어에 병렬화 규약의 코드를 추가하였을 때, 제안 시스템은 호환성 뿐만 아니라 병렬 쓰레드의 수행을 지원한다. BioMP는 기존의 대용량 애플리케이션 소스코드를 단시일에 멀티코어를 인지하는 소프트웨어로 개선한다. 실험 결과, 우리의 아이디어는 쿼드 코어기반의 멀티코어 환경에서 기존의 시스템 대비 애플리케이션 실행속도를 약 64%까지 개선하였다. 또한, BioMP는 독립적인 컴포넌트이기 때문에 어떠한 플랫폼의 추가적인 수정도 필요로 하지 않는다. 그 결과, 애플리케이션 개발자는 멀티코어향 소프트웨어를 애플리케이션 스토어에 배포하였을 때, 사용자는 모바일 디바이스의 어떠한 수정도 없이 즉시 실행을 할 수 있다.

Scaffolds of cell substrates are biophysical platforms for cell attachment, proliferation, and differentiation. They ultimately play a leading-edge role in the regeneration of tissues. Recent studies have shown the potential of bioactive scaffolds (i.e., osteo-inductive) through 3D printing. In this study, rice bran-derived biocomposite was fabricated for fused deposition modeling (FDM)-based 3D printing as a potential bone-graft analogue. Rice bran by-product was blended with poly caprolactone (PCL), a synthetic commercial biodegradable polymer. An extruder with extrusion process molding was adopted to manufacture the newly blended "green material." Processing conditions affected the performance of these blends. Bio-filament composite was characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Mechanical characterization of bio-filament composite was carried out to determine stress-strain and compressive strength. Biological behaviors of bio-filament composites were also investigated by assessing cell cytotoxicity and water contact angle. EDX results of bio-filament composites indicated the presence of organic compounds. These bio-filament composites were found to have higher tensile strength than conventional PCL filament. They exhibited positive response in cytotoxicity. Biological analysis revealed better compatibility of r-PCL with rice bran. Such rice bran blended bio-filament composite was found to have higher elongation and strength compared to control PCL.

A system for the electrical bio signal detection for a microchip is proposed. Gold nanoparticles were selected for the system for their bio-compatibility and potential for higher sensitivity with large surface areas. For the estimation of the conductivity of gold nanoparticles, microchips with interdigitated microelectrodes of 3,5,7 and $9\;{\mu}m$ spacing were fabricated. In addition, a simulation program was developed to estimate the electrical resistance of the fabricated microchip. The results of conduction simulation for the nanoparticles show good agreements with experimental data, which validate the proposed system.
