중성자가 조사된 흑연에 내재되어 있는 Wigner 에너지를 배출시키는 방법의 하나인 가열냉각공정의 적용 예로 DSC(미분 주사선 열량계) 측정을 통해 흑연으로부터 Wigner 에너지가 배출되는 열 배출 특성을 연구하였다. 일정온도 상승 방법 에 의한 DSC 운전에서 중성자가 조사된 흑연을 가열냉각(annealing)하는 동안 배출되는 Wigner 에너지의 총량과 처리온도에 따른 배출속도를 측정하였다. 연구로 2호기(KRR-2) thermal column 내에 위치별로 중성자의 조사량에 차이가 나는 흑연 시료를 분말로 만들어 상온에서 까지의 온도 범위에서 DSC를 운전하고 이로부터 Wigner 에너지의 배출 속도를 측정하였다. 가열냉각 동안 중성자가 조사된 흑연에서 배출되는 Wigner 에너지의 배출 특성은 가변적 활성화 에너지 속도 식으로 잘 상관시킬 수 있었다.

The CLASS (Computerized LAyout Solutions using Simulated annealing) deals with the inter-cell and intra-cell layout problems in a cellular manufacturing environment. It focuses on the relative placement of manufacturing cells to minimize the total material flow (cost). The method is based on simulated annealing, which has been successfully applied for solving facility layout problems. This algorithm has a character of the independence of the final solution to the initial solution. There are 2 comparisons were made with applying 2-Opt algorithm to the CLASS when finding initial variables and used 2-Opt algorithm again after finding a solution by using 2-Opt algorithm to the CLASS to accommodate to improve the output.

This paper proposes a hierarchical approach to the machine loading problem when the workload and tool magazine capacity of each machine are restrained. This heuristic approach reduces the maximum workload of the machines by partially grouping them. This research deals with situations where different groups of machines performing the same operation require different processing times. This work proposes a solution that is comprised of two phases. In first phase, demand is divided into batches and then operations are allocated. In Phase II, the processing time of the operation is different for each machine group, which is composed of the same identical machines; however, these machines can perform different sets of operations if tooled differently. In partial grouping, each machine is tooled differently, but they can assist one another in processing each individual operation.

Mitis-salivarius sucrose bacitracin(MSB) medium is widely used in the selective isolation of mutans streptococci(MS), a designation for a group of oral cariogenic species. Recently, we have isolated three bacterial strains grown on MSB agar from human dental plaques. The three strains exhibited biochemical characteristics similar to those of the biotype IV of MS, with the exception that they manifested a positive reaction for arginine deaminase. The objective of this study was to identify and characterize these three clinical isolates. The bacteria were identified with biochemical tests as well as by 16S rDNA cloning and sequencing. In order to compare the antibiotics susceptibility of the clinical isolates with that of type strain, the minimum inhibitory concentrations of 9 antibiotics were determined using broth dilution assays. The results identified all of our three clinical isolates as Enterococcus faecalis. All E. faecalis strains were found to be susceptible to penicillin G, amoxicillin, augmentin, and vancomycin, but were resistant to ciprofloxacin, cefuroxim axetil, and clindamycin. Our findings indicate that E. faecalis is capable of growing on MSB agar, and suggest that the MSB medium be improved so that only MS should be recoverable on the medium, as originally devised for their selection.

자가사리 정자는 체외수정을 하는 일반적인 수중형의 형태를 하고 있으나 미토콘드리아의 많은 수, 핵 돌기 및 두 개의 편모를 가지는 구조적 차이를 보여주었다. 핵의 기부에는 두 개의 깊이 함입된 핵와에 각각 말단부중심립을 포함하고 두 개의 중심립은 축사를 형성할 기저체로서의 기능을 하며 서로 평행하게 배열되어 있었다. 부수체는 중심립에서부터 핵막 사이의 공간에 있으며 이들 사이의 공간적 관계를 안정화시키는 역할을 하는 것으로 여겨진다. 미토콘드리아는 중편세포질에서 2층 또는 3층으로 배열되어 있으며 그 수는 40개 정도가 있었다. 정자는 두 개의 편모를 가지며 각 편모에 2개씩 즉 4개의 axonemal fins가 나있고 이들은 축사의 이중미세소관 3번과 8번 양쪽의 원형질막이 돌출되어 나타났다. 세포질관을 덮고있는 외벽은 원형질막과 소포체 수조로 구성 되며 이들 사이에 수많은 결합구조가 발달되어 있었다. 이와같이 자가사리의 정자는 구형의 핵, 깊은 핵와, 미토콘드리아의 배열 및 편모의 구성에 있어서 메기과와 동자개과의 정자와 유사하나 이들 두 과와는 핵 돌기, 핵와, 축사 및 axonemal fins의 수에 있어서는 차이를 보여주었다. 정자의 중편과 꼬리의 구성에서 메기목 4과 중 퉁가리과와 동자개과의 계통적 유연관계가 가장 밀접한 것으로 나타났다.

We have investigated the intensities and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the high dispersion spectroscopic N III emission lines of AG Peg, observed with the Hamilton Echelle Spectrograph (HES) in three different epochs at Mt. Hamilton’s Lick Observatory. The earlier theoretical Bowen line study assumed the continuum fluorescence effect, presenting a large discrepancy with the present data. Hence, we analyzed the observed N III lines assuming line fluorescence as the only suitable source: (1) The O III and N III resonance line profiles near λ 374 were decomposed, using the Gaussian function, and the contributions from various O III line components were determined. (2) Based on the theoretical resonant N III intensities, the expected N III Bowen intensities were obtained to fit the observed values. Our study shows that the incoming line photon number ratio must be considered to balance at each N III Bowen line level in the ultraviolet radiation according to the observed lines in the optical zone. We also found that the average FWHM of the N III Bowen lines was about 5 km·s-1 greater than that of the O III Bowen lines, perhaps due to the inherently different kinematic characteristics of their emission zones.

Prior literature expects a lower marginal cash value for weaker governance firms. We test this empirical hypothesis by using the sample of publicly traded Korean firms from 2005 to 2013. To measure the quality of governance structures, we employ the corporate governance scores provided by Korean Corporate Governance Services. The empirical model of Faulkender and Wang (2006) is adopted to estimate the marginal value of cash. Our empirical analysis shows a higher marginal value of cash for the good governance firms in the examination of the total governance score. This finding is consistent to the agency view of cash policy predicting a larger marginal value of cash for the firms with higher governance scores. However, this positive relationship is not robust for a subset of detailed governance scores; a lower marginal cash value is observed for the firms with better qualities of board structure, auditing, dividend policies. Moreover, our empirical analysis verifies a quite low level of marginal cash value for Korean firms, which supports the existence of severe agency conflicts in Korean corporations. Our results verify the significant role of agency conflicts between a manager and shareholders in the determination of marginal cash values in the Korean firms.

Background : Campanula takesimana is a herb(Jabanpungnyeoncho) used traditionally in the korea private and we tried the development on a medicinal material. It was known that it has chlorogenic acid, as a immunoadjuvant activity. In this study we investigated the contents of the chlorogenic acid in Companula takesimana at different harversting time by the high performance liquid chromatographic(HPLC)-PDA. Campanula takesimana was collected on May maddle (Flower buds farmed), June middle (flowers opened) and July middle (seeds were mature). Methods and Results : HPLC analysis was carried out using X-bridge C18 column (5um, 250*4.6mm) and a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water containing 0.1% formic acid at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The optimum wavelength for the detection of the Chlorogenic acid was 330 nm using Photo Diode Array Detector. The contents of the chlorogenic acid in the Campanula takesimana extrat were 1.00% (May middle), 0.84% (June middle), 0.05% (July middle), respectively. As the different parts of Campanula takesimana, chlorogenic acid contents in May middle extrat were 2.73% (aerial part), 0.05% (root) and in June middle extrat were 1.61% (aerial part), 0.03% (root), 0.70% (flower) and in July middle were 0.13% (aerial part), 0.03% (root), 0.00% (seed), respectively. Conclusion : From the above results, the highes content of chlorogenic acid was observed in aerial part and May middle extract of Campanula takesimana.

Background : Malonyl ginsenoside content of the Panax ginseng is known to account for 35% to 60% of total ginsenosides content. However, its distribution by ginseng part has not been studied. In this study, four kinds of malonyl ginsenosides were compared in Korean white ginseng part using the purified malonyl ginsenoside standards in our laboratory. Methods and Results : White ginseng was prepared by the air drying (50℃, 48h) or freeze drying (-70℃, 48h) methods form 4-year-old ginseng. Malonyl ginsenoside content in total ginsenosides were similar in air dried and freeze dried white ginseng, 58% and 62%, respectively. Therefore, malonyl ginsenoside contents in main, lateral, and fine root, and in the main root without skin and skin of main root prepared by freeze dried method were compared. Malonyl ginsenosides (m-Rb1, m-Rb2, m-Rc and m-Rd) and total ginsenosides (Rg1, Re, Rf, Rb1, Rc, Rb2, Rb3, Rd, m-Rb1, m-Rb2, m-Rc and m-Rd) were 6.75 and 14.15 mg/g in main root, 14.15 and 26.35 mg/g in lateral root, 46.95 and 84.15 mg/g in fine root. Malonyl ginsenoside contents in skin of main root was 20.08 mg/g, while its contents of the main root without skin was 2.58 mg/g. Conclusion : As a result, the parts each air drying the sample was confirmed that the ratio of the distribution of malonyl ginsenoside (main root : lateral : fine root = 18.7 : 11.1 : 16.2), and distribution ratio of main root, skin of main root, lateral, skin of lateral was found to be (12.2: 14.6 14.3: 3.7). Malonyl ginsenoside content was the highest in fine root, compared to the main or lateral root. Malonyl ginsenoside contents in skin of root was higher than those of the main root without skin. These results is expected to help establish an efficient extraction and standardization. Malonyl ginsenoside analysis of White ginseng using HPLC expects that the standardization process can be established.
