Iron-containing TNU-9 zeolites were prepared by aqueous ion exchange in the range of Fe contents 0.6~3.3 wt%. Direct decomposition of $N_2O$ was performed varying $N_2O$ concentrations and reaction temperatures. Fe-TNU-9 zeolites used were characterized using XRD, $N_2$ sorption, SEM/EDX. A 2.7 wt% Fe-TNU-9 zeolite showed high activities and above this contents of Fe the effect of catalytic activity was little dominated. Fe-TNU-9 zeolites after ion exchange conserved their TNU-9 structure although the degree of crystallinity was decreased until ca. 60% in 3.1 wt% Fe-TNU-9 zeolite after ion exchange in 0.01 M Fe solution. The decrease in the degree of crystallinity could be correlated with the decrease of surface area and pore volume. The partial reaction order of $N_2O$ in the decomposition of $N_2O$ was dependent on the reaction temperature from 0.69 at $420^{\circ}C$ to 0.97 at $494^{\circ}C$. The activation energy of $N_2O$ was also dependent on the $N_2O$ concentration and its value is ranged to 34~43 kcal/mol.

In goats fed on dry forage twice a day, an esophageal fistula was used to investigate the physiological factors present in the marked suppression of dry forage intake that occurs after 40 min of feeding. The animals used in this study were five large-type male esophageal- and ruminal-fistulated goats. Roughly crushed alfalfa hay cubes with any large remaining chunks removed were used as feed for this research. The study was conducted under both normal feeding conditions (NFC) and sham feeding conditions (SFC). In the NFC control, the esophageal fistulae were closed by plugs and the animals ate dry forage in the normal manner. In the SFC treatment, before starting the experiment the plugs for closing the esophageal fistula were removed and the cannulae for collecting boluses were fitted into the fistulae. Therefore, the esophageal boluses were removed via an esophageal fistula before they entered the rumen. In the NFC control, eating rates sharply decreased in the first 40 min of feeding and were subsequently maintained at low levels. However, eating rates in the SFC treatment remained high after 40 min of the feeding period had elapsed and the goats ate continuously during the 2 h feeding period. In comparison with the NFC control ($1,794{\pm}203.80\;g$/2 h), cumulative dry forage intake in the SFC treatment ($3,182{\pm}381.69\;g$/2 h) was 77.4% greater (p<0.05) upon conclusion of the 2 h feeding period. In the SFC treatment, cumulative bolus output ($6,804{\pm}469.92\;g$/2 h) was about twofold the cumulative dry forage intake due to cumulative salivary secretion volume ($3,622{\pm}104.13\;g$/2 h) upon conclusion of the 2 h feeding period. The result indicates that large amounts of secreted saliva during dry forage feeding act in conjunction with consumed feed to form the ruminal load responsible for ruminal distension. The increased plasma total protein concentrations were higher in the SFC treatment than in the NFC control. However, plasma and ruminal fluid osmolalities increased in the NFC control during and after feeding but were mostly unchanged in the SFC treatment. In comparison with the NFC control ($3,440{\pm}548.04\;g$/30 min), thirst level in the SFC treatment ($1,360{\pm}467.02\;g$/30 min) was 60.5% significantly less (p<0.05) upon conclusion of the 30 min drinking period. The results of the present study indicate that In the second hour of the 2 h feeding period, dry forage intake is regulated by factors produced when boluses enter the rumen.

Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) is known to protect the heart against ischemia/reperfusion (IR)-induced injuries, and regional differences in the mitochondrial antioxidant state during IR or IPC may promote the death or survival of viable and infarcted cardiac tissues under oxidative stress. To date, however, the interplay between the mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme system and the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the body has not yet been resolved. In the present study, we examined the effects of IR- and IPC-induced oxidative stresses on mitochondrial function in viable and infarcted cardiac tissues. Our results showed that the mitochondria from viable areas in the IR-induced group were swollen and fused, whereas those in the infarcted area were heavily damaged. IPC protected the mitochondria, thus reducing cardiac injury. We also found that the activity of the mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme system, which includes manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD), was enhanced in the viable areas compared to the infarcted areas in proportion with decreasing levels of ROS and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage. These changes were also present between the IPC and IR groups. Regional differences in Mn-SOD expression were shown to be related to a reduction in mtDNA damage as well as to the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c (Cyt c). To the best of our knowledge, this might be the first study to explore the regional mitochondrial changes during IPC. The present findings are expected to help elucidate the molecular mechanism involved in IPC and helpful in the development of new clinical strategies against ischemic heart disease.

High energy charged particles are trapped by geomagnetic field in the region named Van Allen Belt. These particles can move to low altitude along magnetic field and threaten even low altitude spacecraft. Space Radiation can cause equipment failures and on occasions can even destroy operations of satellites in orbit. Sun sensors aboard Science and Technology Satellite (STSAT-l) was designed to detect sun light with silicon solar cells which performance was degraded during satellite operation. In this study, we try to identify which particle contribute to the solar cell degradation with ground based radiation facilities. We measured the short circuit current after bombarding electrons and protons on the solar cells same as STSAT-1 sun sensors. Also we estimated particle flux on the STSAT-l orbit with analyzing NOAA POES particle data. Our result clearly shows STSAT-l solar cell degradation was caused by energetic protons which energy is about 700keV to 1.5MeV. Our result can be applied to estimate solar cell conditions of other satellites.

Nowadays, vessel's size is tending to bigger, Therefore port facilities are developed according to this trend, which has been shown in the competition of Hub-Port among the main ports such as Port of Busan and Port of Shanghai. However there are the limited number of large containerships more specifically so 70% of the total ships calling at Busan Port are small and medium sized ships which are less than 20,000 ton As a result, it is necessary to consider the handling facilities of these ships which had been disregarded The big size of facilities increases handling cost bemuse of high investment so it is possible for small and medium sized ships to have disadvantages financially and avoid calling. In this paper, we estimate the propriety of utilization of crane and labor according to the size of vessels after analyzing time value cost, reflecting the size of vessels, size and number of crane and labor structure, and container handling cost value.

The III-V ternary alloy semiconductor $In_{l-x}Ga_{x}As$ were grown by the temperature Gradient of $0.60{\leq}x{\leq}0.98$. The electrical properties were investigated by the Hall effect measurement with the Van der Pauw method in the temperature range of $90{\sim}300K$. $In_{l-x}Ga_{x}As$ were revealed n-type and the carrier concentration at 300K were in the range of $9.69{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}{\sim}7.49{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$. The resistivity was increased and the carrier mobility was decreased with increasing the composition ratio. The optical energy gap determined by optical transmission were $20{\sim}30meV$ lower than theoretical valves on the basis of absorption in the conduction band tail and it was decreased with increasing the temperature by the Varshni rule. In the photoluminescence of undoped $In_{l-x}Ga_{x}As$ at 20K, the main emission was revealed by the radiative recombination of shallow donor(Si) to acceptor(Zn) and the peak energy was increased with increasing the composition, X. The diffusion depth of Zn increases proportionally with the square root of diffusion time, and the activation energy for the Zn diffusion into $In_{0.10}Ga_{0.90}As$ was 2.174eV and temperatures dependence of diffusion coefficient was D = 87.29 exp(-2.174/$K_{B}T$). The Zn diffusion p-n $In_{x}Ga_{x}As$ diode revealed the good rectfying characteristics and the diode factor $\beta{\approx}2$. The electroluminescence spectrum for the Zn-diffusion p-n $In_{0.10}Ga_{0.90}As$ diode was due to radiative recombation between the selectron trap level(${\sim}140meV$) and Zn acceptor level(${\sim}30meV$). The peak energy and FWHM of electroluminescence spectrum at 77K were 1.262eV and 81.0meV, respectively.

Purpose : This study was undertaken to observe the occurrence of the vessel aneurysms according to several different methods of microvascular anastomosis. Mterials & methods : Forty Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing $180{\sim}200$ grams, were used for this experiment. The rats were divided into 4 groups. Group 1 (10 rats): The adventitia was trimmed off 5mm from the cut edge each and 20 arterial anastomoses were performed using 8 to 10 interrupted 9-0 polypropylene ($Prolene^{TM}$, Ethicon, U.K.) suture. Group 2 (10 rats): The adventitia was trimmed off as in group 1. Twenty arterial anastomoses were performed using continuous 9-0 polypropylene($Prolene^{TM}$, Ethicon, U.K.) suture. Group 3 (10 rats): The adventitia was stripped only 1mm from the cut edge each but not removed,. Twenty arterial anastomoses were performed using 8 to 10 interrupted 9-0 polypropylene($Prolene^{TM}$, Ethicon, U.K.) suture. Group 4 (10 rats): The adventitia was handled as in group 3. Twenty arterial anastomoses were performed using 9-0 polypropylene($Prolene^{TM}$, Ethicon, U.K.) suture. The arteries of the animals in all groups were explored at 28th days. We examined patency, presence of an aneurysm, other vascular abnormalities and microscopically observed the aneurysms with H&E and Van-Gieson stains. Result : 1. Patency rate was 80% in group 1, 95% in group 2, 85% in group 3 and 90% in group 4, respectively. 2. Aneurysm occurred 20% in group 1, 5% in group 2, 5% in group 3 and 5% in group 4, respectively. 3. There was no other vascular abnormalities in each group. 4. Infection rate was 5% in group 1, 0% in group 2, 20% in group 3 and 15% in group 4, respectively. 5. In the histopathological findings, we observed partially necrotic changes, loss and fragmentation of outer elastic lamella of smooth muscle in media and the proliferation of hyperplastic subintima. A lot of inflammatory cells were infiltrated in hyperplastic intima. Conclusions : On the basis of these observation, we could state that there were little differences in the occurrence of aneurysms according to different anastomotic suture methods.

Evidence shows that tobacco advertising and promotion activities may increase tobacco consumption and usage, especially in youth. Despite the regulation on prohibiting advertisement of any tobacco product, tobacco advertisement and promotion activities are still common in Vietnam. This article presents current exposure to tobacco advertising and promotion (TAP) among school children aged 13 to 15 years in Vietnam in 2014 and potential influencing factors. Data from the Global Youth Tobacco Survey 2014 in Vietnam covering 3,430 school aged children were used. Both descriptive and analytical statistics were carried out with Stata 13 statistical software. Binary logistic regression was applied to explain the exposure to TAP among youth and examine relationships with individual factors. A significance level of p<0.05 and sampling weights were used in all of the computations. In the past 30 days, 48.6% of the students experienced exposure to at least 1 type of tobacco advertising or promotion. Wearing or otherwise using products related to tobacco was the most exposure TAP type reported by students (22.3%). The internet (22.1), points of sales (19.2) and social events (11.5) were three places that students aged 13-15 frequently were exposed to TAP. Binary logistic results showed that gender (female vs male) (OR = 0.61, 95%CI: 0.52 - 0.71), susceptibility to smoking (OR = 2.12, 95%CI: 1.53 - 2.92), closest friends' smoked (OR = 1.43, 95%CI: 1.2 - 1.7) and parents smoking status (OR = 2.83, 95%CI: 1.6 - 5.01) were significantly associated with TAP exposure among school-aged children. The research findings should contribute to effective implementation of measures for preventing and controlling tobacco use among students aged 13-15 in Viet Nam.

The effects of ionic strength on the polynucleation reaction of tungstate ions and the protonized reaction of polytungstate ions have been investigated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4 M KCl.The hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are formed in the tungstate solutions whose ionic strengths are 1 M to 4 M KCl. The equilibrium constants for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are calculated in the range of ionic strength from 1 M to 4M KCl. The enthalpy changes for the formation of hexatungstate ions and the protonized forms of hexatungstate ions are as follows; $7H^++{6WO_4}^{2-}={HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}+3H_2O\;\;{\Delta}H^{\circ}=-62.4{\pm}0.6$$H^++{HW_6O_{21}}^{5-}={H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}\;\;{\Delta}H+_1^{\circ}=-4.12{\pm}0.10$$H^++{H_2W_6O_{21}}^{4-}={ H_3W_6O_{21}}^{3-}\;\;{\Delta}H_2^{\circ}=-4.36{\pm}0.30$ The free energy and entropy changes for the above reactions have been also calculated. A linear relation is formed between $log k_{6,7}$ and ionic strength, and $log k_1\;or\;log k_2\;vs{\cdot}{\mu}.$ $log k_{6,7}\;=\;D{\mu}+I,\;\;where\;D\;=\;1.66{\pm}0.02$$log k_1\;=\;D_1{\mu}+I_1,\;\;where\;D_1\;=\;-8.065{\pm}0.001$$log k_2\;=\;D_2{\mu}+I_2,\;\;where\;D_2\;=\;-0.376{\pm}0.006$
