Capture efficiencies of commercial shrimp trawls may improve if their designs took into better account behavioral responses of wild shrimp to approaching cod-end of the trawls. Here we report results of water tunnel-based experimental studies of responses of wild California target prawns to several different near-realistic netting configurations over a range of water velocities (0.3-0.7 m/s). Netting panels were oriented at parallel to water flows (FP) on the bottom of test section, vertical (VT) or diagonal sloping backward (DG), bottom to top. Behavioral responses were recorded by video camera and analyzed frame by frame. Measured responses included rates of penetrating through netting by behavioral features and tail-flip frequencies. Frequencies of prawn passing through the nets increased with flow speed for both orientations and were higher at given speeds for sloped nets. Other behavioral features (e.g., passage head-or tail-first) also varied significantly with water velocities and netting orientation. Interactions of penetrating rates between netting orientations and flow speeds also were significantly dependent, except for prawn size. Additional studies are needed of other shrimp species and at higher water velocities more similar to actual field operations using trawls to improve size selectivity.

We report the case of a 14-year-old girl who visited the emergency room because of suprapubic discomfort and sudden acute urinary retention. She did not have any significant medical and surgical history, and her neurological examinations were all normal. Urinary catheterization led to the passage of 500 mL urine. Abdominal ultrasonography showed a hematocolpos that was compressing the urinary bladder. Gynecologic history taking revealed that the patient has not had menarche yet. Therefore, a cruciate incision was performed and her urination became normal. As the surgical outcome after adequate hymenotomy for imperforate hymen is usually good, the diagnosis of imperforate hymen is important. However, this condition is easily missed in the clinic because the first physician visited by the patient rarely takes a detailed gynecologic history or performs appropriate physical examinations. Although rare, imperforate hymen should be considered as a cause of acute urinary retention in the adolescence period. If an adolescent girl presents with abdominal pain and voiding dysfunction, a detailed gynecologic history and appropriate physical examinations of the genital introitus should be performed.

A practical and convenient method of rearing Eucyclops serrulatus in a microculture environment is described. A complete life cycle of E. serrulatus was maintained in a narrow space on a microscope slide glass on which a cover glass of $22{\times}40mm$ in size was mounted at a height of 0.8mm. The culture medium was constituted by bottled mineral water boiled with grains of Glycine max (soybean). Chilomonas paramecium, a free-living protozoan organism, was provided as live food. Growth of nauplii hatched from eggs to the first stage of copepodite took an average of 7.7 days, and the growth of copepodite 1 to the egg-bearing adult female took an average of 20.1 days in the microculture cell with an average life time of 44.7 days. Continuous passage of cope pods was successfully maintained as long as sufficient medium and food were provided. The microculture method enables an in situ microscopic observation on the growth and developmental process of helminth larvae experimentally infected to copepods as well as of copepod itself. Furthermore, it does not require anesthetization and, therefore, minimize the amount of stress exposed to cope pods during the handling process.

This experiment extracted the natural green-tea using ethanol and obtained the refined oil component after filterated green-tea extract. This study tested the antimicrobial effect as characteristics experiment, and analyzed refined oil component with pH-meter and GC/MS. In the result of this experiment, it obtained the next conclusions. In the first result of extraction experiment, it could know that extraction ratio of refined oil component appeared about 9.0%. In the second result of characteristics experiment, it could certificate that in case of increasing the refined oil component in concentration of 100ppm and above, and according to passage of cultivation time, the number of S-aureus and E-coli in microbe decreased less and less. But in case of blank test not adding the refined oil component, the number of microbe increased more and more. In these phenomena, it could certificate that refined oil component of green-tea appeared antimicrobial effect against microbe. In the third result of instrumental analysis, refined oil component of green-tea appeared about 7.6 in 1% distilled water solution with pH-meter, and the aromatic components of benzene, bonyl acetate, campene, ${\alpha},{\beta},{\gamma}$-pinnene etcs from refined oil component of green-tea was detected with GC/MS.

Carboplatin intra-arterial chemotherapy(IAC) has an advantage of increased uptake during the first passage of the drugs through tumor capillaries. Although not common, this type of therapy is known to cause neurological complications, myelosuppression, and ototoxicity. However, the incidence of ocular toxicity is reported to be rare. Eleven of our patients with glioma(Grade II Astrocytoma : 3, Grade III Astrocytoma : 1, Grade IV Astrocytoma : 5, Gliofibroma : 1, Oligodendroglioma : 1) underwent IAC regimen with carboplatin($300mg/m^2$) which were administrated after blood-brain barrier disruption. Of there, 3 patients had ocular complications after supra-ophthalmic IAC injection of carboplatin but fully recovered following steroid therapy. Although our results from IAC seem to be favorable for these patients, we suggest that its complications, such as ocular toxicity, need to be carefully considered prior to treatment.

This paper presents the numerical simulation results of heat transfer and friction loss for a rotating two-pass duct with the airfoil-guide vanes in the turning region. The Kriging model is used as an optimization technique with Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes analysis of flow field and heat transfer with shear stress transport turbulent model. To improve the heat transfer performance, angle and location of the airfoil-guide vanes have been selected as design variables. The optimization problem has been defined as a minimization of the objective function, which is defined as a linear combination of heat transfer related term and friction loss related term with a weight factor. The airfoil-guide vanes in the turning region keep the high level of heat transfer while the friction loss has a low value. By comparing the presence or absence of airfoil-guide vanes, it is shown that the airfoil-guide vanes exhibited the best heat transfer performance to improve the blade cooling except the first passage.

본 연구는 osteoblastic cells에서 estogen 의 생합성을 유도하는 aromatase의 activity에 대한 봉독(蜂毒)작용을 측정하여, 봉독치료시 Arthritis의 진행 억제 및 estogen의 의한 bone formation의 효과여부를 검증하기 위해 실행하였다. 사용된 세포주로는 Osteoblastic phenotype으로 분화가 유도되는 Human leukaemic cell line FLG 29.1 및 the primary first-passage osteoblastic cells (hOB cells)이며, 이들을 각각 배양하고 각각의 RNA를 isolation한 뒤 PCR 증폭을 하였다. Aromatase에 대한 활성인자인 TPA와 TGF-${\beta}1$ 및 봉독을 이용하여 aromatase의 expression 및 activity에 대해 미치는 영향을 측정한 바, aromatase expression은 FLG 29.1 cell와 hoB cells에서, 50nM TPA 24시간 처리, 봉독 2 ~ 4시간 처리와 TGF-${\beta}1$ 3시간 처리로 유도한 결과 TPA와 TGF-${\beta}1$의 경우는 서로 유사하였고, 봉독에서 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. Aromatase activity는 FLG 29.1 cell, hoB cells에서 24시간 incubation한 결과, 모든 실험에서 일정하게 선상증가를 보였다. $5{\mu}{\ell}/m{\ell}$ BV에서 TPA와 TGF-${\beta}1$보다 뚜렷하게 증가하였으며, 0.5mM Bt2-cAMP, 50nM dexametasone처리에서는 유의성이 없었다. Estrogen 생합성을 촉매하는 aromatase activity BV가 처리에서 현저하게 증가하였기에, Rheumatis arthritis의 bone destruction에 대해 BV가 효과적인 역할을 할 것으로 보여진다.

In connection with a non-cash payment through the banking system, "finality of payment" has acquired diverse meanings. In according to Section 4A-209(2), the acceptance by the beneficiary's bank by means of receiving payment "pursuant to section 4A-403(a)(1) or 4A-403(a)(2)," constitutes final settlement through a Federal Reserve Bank or through a funds-transfer system" or credit to the account of the beneficiary's bank. Above of all, Acceptance by beneficiary's bank is the most important. According to 4A-209(b), the beneficiary's bank can accept a payment order in one of four ways : First, by paying the beneficiary; obligating itself to pay the beneficiary or, Second, by notifying the beneficiary of receipt of the order or notifying the beneficiary that its account was credited or, Thirdly, by receiving full payment from the sender's order or Lastly, by passage of time, i.e., the opening of the next funds transfer business day of the bank following the payment date of the order. A beneficiary's bank is considered to have accepted a payment order when the earliest of the four means of acceptance occurs.
