  • Reverse engineering is defined as the process where the internal structures and dynamics of a given system are inferred and analyzed from external observations and relevant knowledge. The first part of this paper surveys existing techniques for biosystem reverse engineering. Network structure inference techniques such as Correlation Matrix Construction (CMC), Boolean network and Bayesian network-based methods are explained. After the numeric and logical simulation techniques are briefly described, several representative working software tools were introduced. The second part presents our component-based software architecture for biosystem reverse engineering. After three design principles are established, a loosely coupled federation architecture consisting of 11 autonomous components is proposed along with their respective functions.

  • Multi-omics approaches are novel frameworks that integrate multiple omics datasets generated from the same patients to better understand the molecular and clinical features of cancers. A wide range of emerging omics and multi-view clustering algorithms now provide unprecedented opportunities to further classify cancers into subtypes, improve the survival prediction and therapeutic outcome of these subtypes, and understand key pathophysiological processes through different molecular layers. In this review, we overview the concept and rationale of multi-omics approaches in cancer research. We also introduce recent advances in the development of multi-omics algorithms and integration methods for multiple-layered datasets from cancer patients. Finally, we summarize the latest findings from large-scale multi-omics studies of various cancers and their implications for patient subtyping and drug development.

  • This study investigated the effects of various culture parameters (carbon sources, temperature, initial pH of culture, NaCl concentration, and light) on the growth and canthaxanthin production by Dietzia natronolimnaea HS-1. The results showed that the most effective carbon source for growth and canthaxantin production was glucose, and the best pH and temperature were 7 and $31^{\circ}C$, respectively. In addition, the biomass and canthaxanthin production increased in a medium without NaCl and in the presence of light. Under the optimized conditions, the maximum biomass, total carotenoid, and canthaxanthin production were $6.12{\pm}0.21g/l,\;4.51{\pm}0.20mg/l,\;and\;4.28{\pm}0.15mg/l$, respectively, in an Erlenmeyer flask system, yet increased to 7.25 g/l, 5.48 mg/l, and 5.29 mg/l, respectively, in a batch fermenter system.

  • In this study, we conducted a research on optimizing the spraying performance of agricultural drones and predicted the spraying performance in various flight conditions using the multi-layer perceptron (MLP). Data was collected using a test device for pesticide spraying performance according to the water sensitive paper (WSP) evaluation. MLP training involved supervised learning to achieve a coefficient of variation (CV), which indicates the degree of uniform spraying. The performance evaluation was conducted using R-squared (R2), the test samples showed an R2 of 0.80. The results of this study showed that drone spraying performance can be predicted under various flight environments. In addition, the correlation analysis between flight conditions and predicted spraying performance will be useful for further research on optimizing the spraying performance of agricultural drones.

  • Nebulizer is designed to atomize medicinal fluid for patient with small particles(0.5-$5{\mu}m$) and also able to deliver particles from devices to the lungs when patient inhales air. Several particle size measurements are currently used to size aerosol particles. The most commonly used test is the cascade impactor method in as a standard. But, other methods for comparative particle size distribution data such as the particle size range and reproducibility are acceptable. Therefore, in this study a new test methode is suggested for nonventilatory nebulizer evaluation equipment.

  • It has widely been observed that the effect of elevating atmospheric $CO_2$ concentrations on rice productivity depends largely on soil N availabilities. However, the responses of ammonia volatilization from flooded paddy soil that is an important pathway of N loss and thus affecting fertilizer N availability to concomitant increases in atmospheric $CO_2$ and temperature has rarely been studied. In this paper, we first report the interactive effect of elevated $CO_2$ and temperature on ammonia volatilization from rice paddy soils applied with urea. Urea labeled with $^{15}N$ was used to quantitatively estimate the contribution of applied urea-N to total ammonia volatilization. This study was conducted using Temperature Gradient Chambers (TGCs) with two $CO_2$ levels [ambient $CO_2$ (AC), 383 ppmv and elevated $CO_2$ (EC), 645 ppmv] as whole-plot treatment (main treatment) and two temperature levels [ambient temperature (AT), $25.7^{\circ}C$ and elevated temperature (ET), $27.8^{\circ}C$] as split-plot treatments (sub-treatment) with triplicates. Elevated temperature increased ammonia volatilization probably due to a shift of chemical equilibrium toward $NH_3$ production via enhanced hydrolysis of urea to $NH_3$ of which rate is dependent on temperature. Meanwhile, elevated $CO_2$ decreased ammonia volatilization and that could be attributed to increased rhizosphere biomass that assimilates $NH_4^+$ otherwise being lost via volatilization. Such opposite effects of elevated temperature and $CO_2$ resulted in the accumulated amount of ammonia volatilization in the order of ACET>ACAT>ECET>ECAT. The pattern of ammonia volatilization from applied urea-$^{15}N$ as affected by treatments was very similar to that of total ammonia volatilization. Our results suggest that elevated $CO_2$ has the potential to decrease ammonia volatilization from paddy soils applied with urea, but the effect could partially be offset when air temperature rises concomitantly.

  • 정상적인 부화 여부를 판별하기 위한 1차 검란은 일반적으로 5일~7일 이후에 시행된다. 미부화란을 이보다 더 빠른 시간 안에 검출할 경우 부화에 소요되는 에너지의 감소 효과 및 미부화란을 다른 용도로 활용하는 것을 기대할 수 있다. 시중에서 쉽게 구입할 수 있는 산란계인 하이라인 브라운 품종의 유정란 29개와 인위적인 미부화란을 만들기 위한 동일 품종의 무정란 11개를 사용하였으며 $38^{\circ}C$, 70% 조건의 항온항습기에서 96시간 동안 부화하였다. 스펙트럼 획득 장치의 광원은 녹색영역을 발광하는 LED램프와 일반 할로겐 광원을 별도로 사용하였으며 스펙트로미터는 VIS/NIR 영역인 520~1,180nm영역과 NIR영역인 900~1,700nm영역의 것을 사용하였다. 부화 시작 전과 부화 시작 후 1일 간격으로 각각 1개의 샘플에 대한 1개의 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 측정 영역은 LED광원을 이용한 경우는 520~1,1800nm, 할로겐광원을 이용한 경우에는 520~1,180nm와 900~1,700nm이었다. 정상 부화여부는 4일차에서 할란하여 확인하였고, 측정 일자별로 PLS-DA분석법을 이용한 판별 모델을 개발하였다. 4일차에서 유정란 29개 중 11개가 정상 부화하였고, 18개는 미부화하였다. 3일차에서 판별 모델의 정확도는 LED광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%, 할로겐 광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 70%, 할로겐 광원의 NIR영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 70%였다. 4일차에서 판별 모델의 정확도는 LED광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%, 할로겐 광원의 VIS/NIR 영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 90%, 할로겐 광원의 NIR영역 스펙트럼을 이용한 경우는 100%였다. 부화 3일차는 정상 부화할 경우 피가 생성되는 시기이다. 피가 형성된 이후의 부화 여부를 판단하는 광원으로는 할로겐램프보다 LED램프를 사용하는 것이 더 적합한 것으로 나타났다.

  • It is known that the low-intensity sound stimulation really affect to grow the cell. The cellular growth mechanism, however, does not been clearly identified even the effect on the low-intensity sound stimulation. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of low-intensity sound stimulation on the alveolar UC-MSC proliferation. Before the low-intensity sound stimulation is applied, the UC-MSC are cultured for 24 hours to facilitate their attachments. The cells are divided into two groups. And each was exposed to a medium with or without the low-intensity ultrasound stimulation at 71dB intensity level. The UC-MSC are again divided into three treatment groups of group 1, 2, and 3 and exposed to a frequency at 50Hz, 100Hz, and 1000Hz, respectively. In the results, it is investigated that the growth rates of UC-MSC for the stimulated groups were higher than those of control groups. In 1000Hz frequency, the number of UC-MSC cell is significantly higher than control groups (p>0.05). We would put the hypothesis that the cell growth could be enhanced by an appropriate low-intensity sound stimulation.

  • Successive application of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DSM 70424 and Saccharomyces rouxii DSM 2535 or DSM 2531 in the production of non-alcoholic beer was investigated. The aim of the study was to consider the impact of the 2 mentioned strains of S. rouxii on the reduction of alcohol content in wort fermented at 12 or $24^{\circ}C$ for 96 hr, applying periodic aeration. The 2 S. rouxii strains were added at the $48^{th}$ hr of fermentation after thermal inactivation of S. cerevisiae cells. The greatest alcohol decrease rate was observed for the treatment containing S. rouxii DSM 2535-fermented at $24^{\circ}C$ (from 1.56 to 0.36%). The concentration of acetaldehyde, diacetyl, and 2,3-pentandione, that have a key role in appearance of 'wort' and 'buttery' off flavors, were significantly lower in S. rouxii-containing treatments fermented at $24^{\circ}C$. S. rouxii-containing treatment fermented at $24^{\circ}C$ showed slightly lower overall flavor acceptability compared to S. cerevisiae-containing treatment fermented at the same temperature. Such score was improved for the products obtained at $12^{\circ}C$.
