This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the diet supplemented with various amounts of ginseng powder on the growth rate and blood glucose level in rat. Male Albino rats, weighing between 90 to 100g, were divided into 5 diet groups of 6 rats each. experimental diets contained 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% ginseng powder which was substituted for rice powder and were designated C, G-2, G-4, G-6 and G-8, respectively. The diets were fed for 3 weeks. Throughout feeding period, feed consumption, body weight, feed and protein efficiency ratios were measured, organ weights and blood glucose level were determined at the end of the experimental period. the results are summarized as follows. 1. rats in G-2 group consumed the highest amount of diet among all groups. 2. Body weight gain was significantly higher in G-2 and G-4 than in other groups. 3. Feed and protein efficiency ratios were a little higher in G-4 than in control group. And those of group G-8 were the lowest among those of other groups. 4. The weight of liver was significantly lower I G-4 than in control group. The weight of kidney was significantly lower I G-4 and G-8 than in control group. The weight of heart was significantly lower I G-4 and G-8 than in control group. While, the weight of spleen was greater in ginseng powder diet than in control group. 5. Supplementing ginseng powder in diet resulted in deceased nitrogen in liver. 6. Blood glucose was decreased with increased level of ginseng powder diet.

AlSi12 is a heat-resistant aluminum alloy that is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, machinable and attracting attention as a functional material in aerospace and automotive industries. For that reason, AlSi12 powder has been used for high performance parts through 3D printing technology. The purpose of this study is to observe deposition characteristics of AlSi12 powder in a direct energy deposition (DED) process (one of the metal 3D printing technologies). In this study, deposition characteristics were investigated according to various process parameters such as laser power, powder feed rate, scan speed, and slicing layer thickness. In the single track deposition experiment, an irregular bead shape and balling or humping of molten metal were formed below a laser power of 1,000 W, and the good-shaped bead was obtained at 1.0 g/min powder feed rate. Similar results were observed in multi-layer deposition. Observation of deposited height after multi-layer deposition revealed that over-deposition occurred at all conditions. To prevent over-deposition, slicing layer thickness was experimentally determined at given conditions. From these results, this study presented practical conditions for good surface quality and accurate geometry of deposits.

A synthesis process for PZT powder using $NH_{3}$ gas as a precipitator in a bubble column reactor was experimentally successful in develope a production process of piezoelectric ceramic PZT powder. Also as a reaction by coprecipitation, the crystalized PZT ceramic powder at the condition of over pH 9 could be attained. The time needed for reaction on the condition of $NH_{3}$ gas flow rate = 0.5 1/min, Ar gas flow rate = 2.0 1/min. Feed flow rate = 2.33 ml/sec was less than five minutes, so it could synthesize PZT powder for such a few moments. And the synthesized PZT powder was $0.17{\mu}m$ in diameter on an average.

The objective of this study was to determine effects of humic acid (HA) and blueberry leaf powder (BLP) supplementation in pig feed on productivity, blood profiles, and meat quality characteristics of longissimus muscle. The experimental design included six treatments: 1) CON, no addition; 2) T1, BLP 0.1%; 3) T2, BLP 0.2%; 4) T3, humic acid 2%; 5) T4: humic acid 2%+BLP 0.1%; and 6) T5: humic acid 2%+BLP 0.2%. HA and BLP supplementation in pig feed significantly increased average daily feed intake (ADFI) values (p<0.05). HA supplementation in pig feed had beneficial effects in lipid profiles without altering feed efficiency rate (FER). HA and BLP co-supplementation in pig feed decreased pH in longissimus thoracis (p<0.05). In addition, sensory characteristics were enhanced when pig feed was supplemented with HA and BLP without causing adverse effects in meat quality. Taken together, addition of HA and BLP in pig feed may produce functional meat products.

An experiment was conducted in Vietnam to test the hypothesis that supplementation with cassava powder up to 2% of live weight (LW)/d (DM basis) would linearly increase digestible organic matter intake and LW gain of Laisind cattle. There were five treatments: a basal diet of elephant grass fed at 1.25% of LW and rice straw fed ad libitum or this diet supplemented with cassava powder, containing 2% urea, at about 0.3, 0.7, 1.3 or 2.0% LW. The cattle fed cassava powder at about 2.0% LW did not consume all of the supplement, with actual intake similar to the 1.3% LW treatment. Organic matter, digestible organic matter and digestible energy intakes increased (p<0.001) curvilinearly with increased consumption of cassava powder. Rice straw intake declined curvilinearly with increasing intake of cassava powder (p<0.001), and there was a small linear decline (p = 0.01) in grass intake. The substitution rate of cassava powder for forage was between 0.5 and 0.7 kg DM reduction in forage intake per kg DM supplement consumed, with no difference between treatments. Apparent digestibility of organic matter increased (p<0.001) in a curvilinear manner, while digestibility of neutral detergent fibre declined (p<0.001) in a curvilinear manner with increased consumption of cassava powder. Live weight gain increased (p<0.01) linearly with increased consumption of supplement. It was concluded that the amount of cassava powder fed should be limited to between 0.7 and 1.0% LW.

Two feeding trials were conducted to investigate the effects of several dietary additives on growth and feed utilization of juvenile flounder. In the first experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.5 g) were fed diets with or without wasabi extract and chitosan for 7 weeks. Survival rate, weight gain, protein efficiency ratio, hepatosomatic index and condition factor were not affected by the different dietary additives (P>0.05). Feed efficiency of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly higher than that of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). Daily feed intake of fish fed the wasabi extract diet was significantly lower than that of fish fed the other diets (P<0.05). In the second experiment, three replicate groups of juveniles (average weight 1.4 g) were fed diets with or without Pophyra powder for 7 weeks. Survival rate and weight gain were not significantly affected by dietary Pophyra powder (P>0.05). Feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed the Pophyra diet were significantly lower than those of fish fed the control diet (P<0.05). The results of these experiments suggest that feed efficiency of juvenile flounder may be improved by dietary supplementation with wasabi extract.

In this paper, the characteristics analysis of LMD track, such as including track structure, track wear resistance and track thickness, were analyzed to enhance the deposition efficiency using a diode-pumped disk laser. SKD61 hot work steel plate and Fe based AISI M2 alloy were used as a the substrate and powder for the LMD process, respectively. The laser power, track pitch and powder feed rate among LMD parameters were adopted to estimate the deposition efficiency. As the laser power is increased, heat input and melting pool on the substrate is grown also increases, so resulting in the increased LMD track thickness was increased. Through EPMA mapping analysis of the cross-section in the LMD track, it was observed that all the elements are evenly distributed inside. Therefore, the entire hardness in the LMD track is expected to be almost uniform regardless of location. The characteristics of the LMD specimen were excellent compared to the STD11 specimen in terms of the wear track width and the wear rate as well as the coefficient of friction. Especially the wear rate of LMD specimen has been significantly reduced by 60 % or more. From Based on the experimental results, the prediction formula of LMD thickness was calculated by using laser power, track pitch and powder feed rate.

Recent developments of Laser metal 3D deposition with wire feeding are reviewed which provide an alternative to powder feeding method. The wire feeding direction, angle and position as well as laser power, wire feeding rate, and deposition speed are found to be key parameters to make quality deposition with high throughput. When compared with the powder feed, the wire feed shows higher material efficiency, higher deposition rate, and smoother surface. Large elongated columnar grains which have epitaxial growth across deposit layers are observed in deposit cross sections. The growth direction is parallel to the thermal gradient during the deposit process. Tensile properties are found to be dependent on the direction due to the anisotropic deposit property. A real-time feedback control is demonstrated to be effective to improve the deposition stability.
