We study some special cases of Chow groups of a ramified complete regular local ring R of dimension n. We prove that (a) for codimension 3 Gorenstein ideal I, [I] = 0 in $A_{n-3}(R)$ and (b) for a particular class of almost complete intersection prime ideals P of height i, [P] = 0 in $A_{n-i}(R)$.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between cord blood adiponectin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and their effect on fetal growth and insulin resistance in mothers with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods: Cord blood adiponectin and IGF-I were compared between mothers with GDM (GDM group, N=53) and controls (non-GDM group, N=101). Neonates were classified into three groups of small for gestational age (SGA, N=26), appropriate for gestational age (AGA, N=97), and large for gestational age (LGA, N=31) by birth weight. The association between cord adiponectin and IGF-I levels was evaluated in relation to maternal and neonatal clinical data. Results: Cord adiponectin was lower in the GDM group than in the non-GDM group (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in cord adiponectin among the SGA, AGA, and LGA groups in the GDM group (P=0.228). The cord adiponectin of AGA in the GDM group was significantly lower than that in the non-GDM group (P<0.001). The most powerful predictor affecting cord adiponectin was the result of maternal 75 g oral glucose tolerance test. The cord IGF-I values between the GDM group and the non-GDM group were not different (P=0.834). Neonates with the heavier birth weight had the higher cord IGF-I levels. The most powerful predictor affecting cord IGF-I was birth weight and the next was maternal parity. Conclusion: Both cord blood adiponectin and IGF-I were associated with fetal growth, but IGF-I was a more general and direct factor affecting fetal body size, and adiponectin seemed to have more association with insulin sensitivity than growth.

Rate constants for the hydrolysis of para-substituted phenyl N-(p-chlorobenzoyl)chloroformimidate (I) derivatives in 1 : 4 dioxane-water at $25^{\circ}C$ have been determined. Rate data, substituent effect $(\rho\>{\rho}^+)$, product analysis and MO calculation indicate that the uncatalyzed reaction proceeds through an $S_N1$ mechanism involving the formation of azocarbonium ion (II) below pH 3.0, and the base-catalyzed reaction proceeds through an $S_N2$ mechanism via transition state (III) above pH 4.0. The relative stability of four peri planar conformational isomers were (E-ap) > (Z-ap) > (E-sp) > (Z-ap), respectively, and the most stable stereo structures shows that the Y-substituted phenyl group $(C_6H_4-Y)$ occupy vertical $(90^{\circ})$ position on the plane of the benzimidochloroformyl group in (E-ap) conformer. The nucleophilic substitution of water molecule occurs by sigma attack to the activatived azomethine carbon atom of (I) derivatives.

For the application of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) p-i-n structural diode as the alpha particle spectroscopy, the induced charge collection was simulated based on a relevant non-uniform charge generation model. The simulation was accomplished for two extreme cases of the incident direction of alpha particle, p-and n-side, respectively. As expected, for the complete charge collection, the hole collection should be severely considered due to its poor mobility and the full depletion bias required. For the comparison of signal corresponding to the detector configuration or structure, although n-i-p configuration shows a wider range of linearity to the energy, p-i-n configuration is more suitable in the viewpoint of linearity and signal value for the considering energy range.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to compare the effects of normal and low protein content (PC) of starter diet supplemented or not with blends of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) on growth performance of broilers under summer conditions and to investigate whether these effects altered some quality traits and the characteristics of gastrointestinal tract. Methods: A total of 768 mixed-sex broiler chicks (Ross 308, one-d-old) with an average initial body weight (BW) of 47.6±1.03 g were allocated into six treatments with four replications in 2×3 factorial arrangement. Factors were: PC, normal (N, 22% to d 15); and low (L, 20% to d 15); and added BCAA blends, L-leucine, L-isoleucine, and L-valine at zero (0L:0I:0V); 1.0, 0.25, and 0.25 (4L:1I:1V); or 1.0, 0.25, 0.75 (4L:1I:3V) g/kg of diet. Hence, six dietary treatments were named as N0L:0I:0V, N4L:1I:1V, N4L:1I:3V, L0L:0I:0V, L4L:1I:1V, and L4L:1I:3V. Average indoor temperature and humidity were 32.8℃±1.7℃ and 61.1%±4.12%, respectively. Results: BW, feed conversion ratio (FCR) and carcass weight were not affected by PC, BCCA and their interaction (p>0.05). The L diets decreased the water holding capacity of the breast (p = 0.002) and thigh (p = 0.050) meats and dressing percentage (p = 0.005) compared to the N diets. The 4L:1I:1V diet decreased breast yield compared to the 0L:0I:0V diets (p = 0.041). The effect of PC on feed intake, mortality and gastrointestinal trait weight were depended on the L:I:V ratios under summer conditions due to interactions between factors (p<0.05). The FI and mortality of L4L:1I:1V broilers were lower than those of N4L:1I:1V birds (p<0.05). Conclusion: It was concluded that the blends of BCAAs used failed to improve performance and to promote breast yields, because diets with normal or with reduced protein supplemented or not with BCAAs up to d 15 produced a similar BW and FCR in broilers raised in hot-climate conditions.

In a Balanced Factorial Experiments (BFE) with n factors $F_1, F_2,\cdots,F_n$ at $m_1, m_2,\cdots,m_n$ levels respectively, Shah [15] has considered the following association scheme: the two treatments are the $(P_1, P_2,\cdot,P_n)$th associates, where $p_i=1$ if the ith factor occurs at the same level in both treatments and $p_i=0$ otherwise; $\lambda_{(p_1,p_2,\cdots,p_n)}$ will denote the number of times these treatments occur together in a block. He has showed that a BFE is partially Blanced Incomplete Block(PBIB) design with repsect to the above association scheme. Kurjian and Zelan [6] have proved that factorial designs possessing a Property A (a particular structure for their matrix NN') are factorially balanced.

Let $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_n$ be a sequence of events on a given probability space and let $m_n$ be the number of those A's which occur. Put $S_{0,n} = 1$ and $$ S_{k,n} = \Sigma P(A_i_1 \cap A_i_2 \cap \cdots \cap A_i_k), (a \leq k)$$ where the summation is over all subscripts satisfying $1 \let i_1 < i_2 < \cdots < i_k \leq n$.

The rates of consumption of iodine and gas evolution in hydrazine-iodine reaction in the presence of large excess of hydrazine have been studied in the pH range 0.5${\sim}$7. They are the same at very low pH and both increase to respective asymptotic values as pH is increased. The rate of iodine consumption is three orders of magnitude faster than the rate of gas evolution at higher pH. The results are explained by postulating that $N_2H_4$ but not protonated form reacts with iodine and an intermediate, probably $N_2H_2I_2$, is formed which decomposed by first order reaction of rate constant about 1.5${\times}10^{-3}sec^{-1}$ in neutral and weakly acidic solutions.

현재 상용화되어 있는 결정질 태양전지의 경우 높은 실리콘 가격으로 인해 저가화에 어려움을 격고 있다. 따라서 태양전지 저가화의 한 방법으로 박막태양전지가 주목을 받고 있다. P-I-N 구조의 박막태양전지에서 I-layer 각 층의 thickness, activation energy, energy bandgap은 고효율 달성을 위한 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 박막태양전지 P-I-N layer의 가변을 통하여 고효율을 달성하기 위한 simulation을 수행하였다. 가변 조건으로는 p-layer의 thickness, activation energy 그리고 energy bandgap을 단계별로 변화시켰고 i-layer는 thickness를 n-layer는 thickness와 activation energy를 가변하여 최적의 조건을 찾아 분석하였다. 최종 simulation 결과 p-layer의 thickness 5nm, activation energy 0.3eV 그리고 energy bandgap 1.8eV에서, i-layer thickness 400nm, n-layer thickness 30nm, activation energy 0.2eV에서 최고 효율 11.08%를 달성하였다.

Let X be a reduced closed subscheme in ${\mathbb{P}}^n$ and $${\pi}_q:X{\rightarrow}Y={\pi}_q(X){\subset}{\mathbb{P}}^{n-1}$$ be an isomorphic projection from the center $q{\in}{\mathbb{P}}^n{\backslash}X$. Suppose that the minimal free presentation of $I_X$ is of the following form $$R(-3)^{{\beta}2,1}{\oplus}R(-4){\rightarrow}R(-2)^{{\beta}1,1}{\rightarrow}I_X{\rightarrow}0$$. In this paper, we prove that $H^1(I_X(k))=H^1(I_Y(k))$ for all $k{\geq}3$. This implies that Y is k-normal if and only if X is k-normal for $k{\geq}3$. Moreover, we also prove that reg(Y) ${\leq}$ max{reg(X), 4} and that $I_Y$ is generated by homogeneous polynomials of degree ${\leq}4$.
