Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and antimicrobial effects of glycerol monolaurate (monolaurin) and organic acids, either alone or in combination, against Escherichia coli O157:H7 in tryptic soy broth were determined. MIC values of monolaurin(ML), acetic (AA), citric (CA), lactic (LA) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) were 300$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL (0.03%), 1250$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL(0.125%), 5000$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL(0.5%), 2500$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL(0.25%) and 2500$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL(0.25), respectively. When 150$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL of ML was combined with 50$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL AA, 250$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL HCl and 125$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL LA, the combined agents did not increase the inhibitory effect of the most active single compound alone. This result indicates that there was little interaction between ML and A, HCl and LA. However, the combination of 150$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL ML and 250$\mu\textrm{g}$/mL CA synergistically inhibited growth of E. coli O157:H7. The present study showed that the nature of combined antimicrobial response against E. coli O157:H7 was complex, but this information would be useful for determining interaction that could compromise effectiveness in food systems.

Hydrogen adsorption mechanism onto the porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been studied by density functional theory calculation. The selected functionals for the predict ion of interact ion energies between hydrogen and potential adsorption sites of MOF was utilized after the evaluation with the various functionals for interaction energy of $H_2C_6H_6$ model system the adsorption energy of hydrogen molecule into MOF was investigated with the consideration of the favorable adsorption sites and the orientations. We also calculated the second favorable adsorption sites by geometry optimization using every combination of two first absorbed hydrogen molecules. Based on the calculation of first and second adsorption sites and energies, the hydrogen adsorption into MOF follows a cooperative mechanism in which the initial metal sites initiate the propagation of the hydrogen adsorption on the whole frameworks. In addition, it was found that the interaction strength between the simple benzene ring with hydrogen is significantly reinforced when the benzene ring has been incorporated into the framework of MOFs.

At present, in India, handling of solid waste has become a major challenge for the municipal authorities. Composting of solid waste, especially organic waste, can be one of the solutions to tackle the issue of handling solid waste. The present study is focused on agitated piles composting of flower waste (FW). Five combinations of FW with dry leaves (DL) and cow dung (CD) were prepared to conduct the study. Significant changes were observed due to the addition of bulking agent. The bulking material helps to reduce the production of leachate and also to maintain the aerobic condition within the piles. The reduction of total organic carbon was 21% in FW composting which increased by 36.48% during the composting of FW on addition of DL and CD. On the 120th day of composting, the pH of pile five (70 kg FW + 20 kg CD + 15 kg DL) was 7.33, electrical conductivity 2.77 mS/cm, total organic carbon 26.9%, total nitrogen 2.2%, and C:N ratio was 12. Appropriate proportion of waste mixture played an important role in providing favorable conditions for the microbial transformation of flower waste to stabilized compost. Finally, FW with the combination of CD and DL was found to be successful during pile composting.

The Fe-ACF/$TiO_2$ composites were prepared by a sol-gel method and were characterized by nitrogen adsorption, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX). The Fe-ACF/$TiO_2$ composites were developed for the decomposition of organic dyes by using a UV lamp. The decomposition effect was investigated under various conditions, such as three selected non-biodegradable organic dyes like Methylene Blue (MB), Methyl Orange (MO), Rhodamine B (Rh.B), and in the presence of Fe and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$). The photocatalytic activity was derived from possible combination effects, such as (1) adsorption of ACF, (2) generation of electron/hole by $TiO_2$, (3) photo-Fenton reaction of Fe, and (4) oxidation of $Fe^{2+}\;to\;Fe^{3+}\;by\;H_2O_2$.

The study examined fire resistance of concrete followed by change of mixed rate in PP and NY composite fiber and the results were as follows. In the event of fluidity in concrete not set, plane satisfied 600±100, its target slump flow, and fluidity was reduced as organic fiber's mixed rate was increased. Air amount satisfied 3.0±1.0, its target air amount, and didn't have distinct differences in reduction and increase according to organic fiber's kind and change of its mixed rate. However, it had a tendency that fluidity was reduced as the mixed rate was increased. In characteristics of hardening concrete, the 28th day compressive strength followed by organic fiber's kind and change of its mixed rate didn't have a lot of differences and satisfied high strength scope as about 70MPa. In spalling characteristics after fire resistance test, spalling was happened in non-mixture, plane combination, and P1N0. In other combinations, spalling resistance was happened. The relic compressive strength rate was 56%, the best condition, in P3N1(PP0.03%, NY0.01% compositeness) mixing PP fiber with NY fiber at once.

Purpose: A personal computer-based system was developed for automated metabolic profiling of organic aciduria and aminoacidopathy by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and data interpretation for the diagnosis of metabolic disorders Methods: For automatic data profiling and interpretation, we compiled retention time, two target ions and their intensity ratio for 77 organic acids and 13 amino acids metabolites. Metabolites above the cut-off values were flagged as abnormal compounds. The data interpretation was a based on combination of flagged metabolites. Diagnostic or index metabolites were categorized into three groups, "and", "or" and "NO" compiled for each disorder to improve the specificity of the diagnosis. Groups "and" and "or" comprised essential and optional compounds, respectively, to reach a specific diagnosis. Group "NO" comprised metabolites that must be absent to make a definite diagnosis. We tested this system by analyzing patients with confirmed Propionic aciduria and others. Results: In all cases, the diagnostic metabolites were identified and correct diagnosis was founded to be made among the possible disease suggested by the system. Conclusion: The study showed that the developed method could be the method of choices in rapid, sensitive and simultaneous screening for organic aciduria and amino acidopathy with this simplified automated system.

투명 플라스틱 소재를 광학용으로 적용하기 위해서는 표면경도 및 내열성과 같은 물성의 개선이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 물성의 개선을 위하여 자외선 경화형 유기/무기 하이브리드를 합성하였다. 유기소재 안에 무기 성분이 균일하게 최적상태로 분산되도록 하기 위하여 졸-겔 반응을 기초로 하여 동시에 반응이 진행되도록 하였다. 이러한 졸-겔 반응과 빠른 자외선 경화반응을 적절히 조합하여 우레탄 아크릴레이트 유기소재 안에 무기 성분의 분산성이 향상되도록 하여 투명성이 우수한 코팅층을 형성시킬 수 있었다. 자외선 경화형 유기/무기 하이브리드의 경화도와 코팅 물성을 변화시키기 위하여 다양한 종류의 알콕시 실란을 사용하였다. 이러한 자외선 경화형 유기/무기 하이브리드 코팅에서의 무기 성분의 함량에 따라 표면 경도와 내열성을 조절할 수 있었다.

부식산과 흘브산이 Paraquat의 약해에 미치는 영향은 호밀의 생물검정을 통해 고사일수, 생중량 및 성장률에 관한 약해지표를 설정하고 Model을 도입하여 평가했다. 호밀의 생육상황에 대한 유기리간드 자체의 영향은 거의 없었으나, Paraquat의 독성은 매우 높았다. Paraquat의 약해가 강하게 나타나기 시작하는 농도는 $0.4{\sim}0.6{\mu}M$ 이었으며, 약해한계농도 (Phytotoxic Critical concentration)는 약 11${\mu}M$ 로 추정되었다. 유기리간드의 처리는 Paraquat의 약해에 의해 초래되는 고사일수를 약 40%까지 지연 시켰으며, Paraquat 단독처리구보다 생중량 및 성장률을 유의성있게 향상시켜, Paraquat의 호밀에 대한 약해를 줄여 주었다.

본 연구에서는 신규 개간 유기농경지에서 가축분 퇴비와 녹비작물을 3년간 연속으로 시용하였을 때 유기물 처리에 따른 밭 토양내의 이화학성과 물리성 변화를 관찰하고자 수행하였다. 가축분 퇴비와 녹비작물을 연속으로 3년간 처리한 시험구는 무처리구, 화학비료 처리구와 비교하여 유기물 함량, 유효인산, 치환성 양이온 등 대부분의 무기성분 농도가 증가하였으며, 밭 토양 최적범위에 근접하는 결과를 나타내었다. 하지만, 유기물 함량 증가의 경우, 보다 정확한 결과를 도출하기 위해서는 중 장기적으로 유기물 함량의 변화에 주목하여 조사할 필요가 있다고 생각되며, 치환성 양이온의 경우에는 그 농도가 지속적으로 증가하여 약 2년 이내에 밭 토양 화학성분의 최적범위에 적합한 수치에 도달하였으나 이를 3년간 연작할 경우 오히려 과잉 공급의 우려가 될 것으로 판단된다. 가축분 퇴비와 녹비작물의 연용은 토양내의 용적밀도 감소와 공극율 증가 등의 물리성 개선에도 다소 효과를 보였다. 따라서, 가축분 퇴비와 녹비작물을 함께 활용하여 연용하게 된다면 비옥도가 낮은 척박한 신규 개간 유기농경지에서 토양의 양분을 확보하고 빠른 시일 내에 토양의 비옥도를 개선하는 조기숙전화 기술 개발에 긍정적인 효과를 가져 올 것으로 판단되며, 본 연구결과는 신규 개간 유기농 밭에서 가축분 퇴비와 녹비작물을 반복적으로 시용함에 따른 시기별 토양내의 양분성분 변화를 제시하는 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
