Commercially pure titanium (CP-Ti) and Ti-6Al-4V alloys have been widely used in implant materials such as dental and orthopedic implants due to their corrosion resistance, biocompatibility, and good mechanical properties. However, surface modification of titanium and titanium alloys is necessary to improve osseointegration between implant surface and bone. Especially, when titanium oxide nanotubes are formed on the surface of titanium alloy, cell adhesion is greatly improved. In addition, plasma electrolytic oxide (PEO) coatings have a good safety for osseointegration and can easily and quickly form coatings of uniform thickness with various pore sizes. Recently, the effects of bone element such as magnesium, zinc, strontium, silicon, and manganese for bone regeneration are researching in dental implant field. The purpose of this study was researched on the surface morphology of PEO-treated Ti-6Al-4V alloy after anodic titanium oxide treatmentusing various instruments. Ti-6Al-4V ELI disks were used as specimens for nanotube formation and PEO-treatment. The solution for the nanotube formation experiment was 1 M $H_3PO_4$ + 0.8 wt. % NaF electrolyte was used. The applied potential was 30V for 1 hours. The PEO treatment was performed after removing the nanotubes by ultrasonics for 10 minutes. The PEO treatment after removal of the nanotubes was carried out in the $Ca(CH_3)_2{\cdot}H_2O+(CH_3COO)_2Mg{\cdot}4H_2O+Mn(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}4H_2O+Zn(CH_3CO_2)_2Zn{\cdot}2H_2O+Sr(CH_2COO)_2{\cdot}0.5H_2O+C_3H_7CaO_6P$ and $Na_2SiO_3{\cdot}9H_2O$ electrolytes. And the PEO-treatment time and potential were 3 minutes at 280V. The morphology changes of the coatings on Ti-6Al-4V alloy surface were observed using FE-SEM, EDS, XRD, AFM, and scratch tester. The morphology of PEO-treated surface in 5 ion coating solution after nanotube removal showed formation or nano-sized mesh and micro-sized pores.

The extracellular endoinulase from Streptomyces sp. 556 was purified and characterized, The culture broth was fractionated by ammonium sulfate saturation followed by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography and 5ephadex G-200 gel filtration, The ultimately purified fraction revealed a single band in 7.5% polyacrylamide gel electropherogram. The purified enzyme showed the maximal activity at pH 5.5-6.0 and $50^{\circ}C$, but lost 93% of inulase activity after 30 min incubation at $55^{\circ}C$ . The essen.tial amino acid residue for catalytic activity appeared to be tryptophan. This endo inulase was activated by $Mn^{2+}$, whereas inactivated by $Ag^{+}$, $Hg^{+}$, $Cu^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, $Fe^{3+}$ and $Mo^{6+}$ EDTA and 8-hydroxyquinoline inhibited the enzyme so that the enzyme was considered to be a metalloenzyme. The Km value for inulin was 0.287 mM, and no invertase or $\alpha$-glucosidase activity was found in the enzyme.

Orostachys japonicus, called Wasong and used as anti-tumor medicinal plant, was cultivated in plastic house. The experiment was done to clarify the effect of long-day and night-break treatment at the timing of bolting on its morphological characters, organ dry weight and flowering of florets. After grown in 15cm plastic boxes containing 2:1 soil:peat moss mixture for about 4 months, long-day of 16 hours and night-break of 2 hours around midnight were treated from Sept. 9. The plants were sampled 5 times at 2-week interval after the treatments. Long-day and night-break treatment delayed the growth of inflorescence and showed greater stem diameter on the last sampling and no. of leaves and bracts than the natural daylength. The treatments also had greater leaf and bract dry weight since 2 weeks, and the other fraction and total dry weights since 4 weeks but less floret dry weight from 4 to 6 weeks after the treatments than the natural daylength. The treatments, however, decreased no. of flowered florets and ratio of flowering plants although all the treatments showed nearly the same no. of total florets per plant until 6 weeks after the treatments, late October, which resulted in the modification of source to sink or vice versa. In the natural daylength, the florets were functioned as sink, while root, leaf and bract as source, but in the long-day and night-break treatments stem and florets were done as sink.

To search of new porcine pheromonal odorants for biostimulation control system technologies to improve reproductive efficiency in livestock species, the comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) for binding affinity constant $(p(Od)_{50})$ between porcine odorant binding protein (pOBP) and ligands of odorant 2-(cyclohexyloxy) tetrahydrofurane derivatives as substrate molecule was conducted and discussed. In the optimized CoMFA model AIV with chirality $(C_1'(R),\;C_2(S))$ in substrate molecule and atom based fit alignment (A) of odorants, the statistical results showed the best predictability of the binding affinities $(p(Od)_{50})$ based on the LOO cross-validated value $r^2_{cv}.\;(q^2=0.886)$ and non-cross-validated conventional coefficient $(r^2_{ncv}.=0.984)$. the binding affinity constants exhibited a good correlation with steric (40.8%), electrostatic (14.6%) and hydrophobic (44.6%) factors of the substrate molecules. from the analytical results of the contour maps, which may give us some valuable informations to the modification of odorants for effective binding affinity.

In this paper, we presents an efficient rich media framework based on MPEG-4 LASeR PMSI. Rich media provides distinctive features such as dynamic updates and object-based interactivity over the conventional AV centric media service. It rapidly gains its popularity as the convergent multimedia services between broadcasting and telecommunication. MPEG-4 LASeR is an international standard which provides specifications for such rich media services. Recently MPEG added an extension to LASeR called PMSI. It provides an efficient technique to present SI on a scene by referencing specific portions of SI from PI. The presented rich media application is using PMSI of MPEG-4 LASeR standard to provide users a widget-like rich media application. This application utilizes MPEG-4 LASeR with PMSI technique as PI, and this PI references SI to present information that resides in SI on a scene. In this paper, we provide descriptions of technical ingredients used to build the presented application. The framework is presented followed by the implementation result. Possible impacts and applicable services are described in the conclusion.

A design for the merge mode of three dimensional High Efficiency Video Coding (3D-HEVC) is proposed in this paper. The proposed design can reduce the implementation complexity by removing the duplicated modules of the HEVC. For the extension codec, the implementation complexity is as crucial as coding efficiency, meaning if possible, extension codec needs to be easily implemented through by reusing the design of the legacy codec as-is. However, the existing merging process of 3D-HEVC had been built-in integrated in the inside of the HEVC merging process. Thus the duplicated merging process of HEVC had to be fully re-implemented in the 3D-HEVC. Consequently the implementation complexity of the extension codec was very high. The proposed 3D-HEVC merge mode is divided into following two stages; the process to reuse the HEVC modules without any modification; and the reprocessing process for newly added and modified merging modules in 3D-HEVC. By applying the proposed method, the re-implemented HEVC modules, which accounted for 51.4% of 3D-HEVC merge mode confirmed through the operational analysis of algorithm, can be eliminated, while maintaining the same coding efficiency and computational complexity.

To develope more effective extraction methods for paraquat in soil, some modification methods were accomplished in two different types of soil. For extraction of tightly bound-paraquat, conc. HCl 70ml were added with different shaking times, and then $H_2SO_4$ reflux were performed for an hour. In this case, 60 minutes shaking were optimum and recovery were increased more $1.09{\sim}1.50$ folds(84.0% in high clay contents soil, but 96.7% in low clay contents soil) and the long-time consuming step, filtration were easily done, with decreasing filtration time were shorter 4.6 folds(ca. $11{\sim}14min.$). than general paraquat analytical method(ca. $55{\sim}65min.$). And only $H_2O_2$ digestion with different volume and refluxing time resulted in recovery increasing. Nevertheless, considering analyst's safety, 30ml of $H_2O_2$ addition and 30 minutes reflux were regarded as optimum condition. Although, Kjeldahl digestion with $H_2O_2$ showed relatively high recovery, it is not significant statistically. For extraction of loosely bound-paraquat, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0M of $NH_4Cl$ and of $CaCl_2$ compared with $1.5{\sim}24hr$ of different shaking time. There were no loosely bound residues of paraquat.

This study shows that ceresin wax, candellila wax and microcrystalline wax mixed together with liquid paraffin oil to produce lipsticks (LS-1, LS-2) and capric/caprylic triglyceride oil added to produce lipsticks (LS-3, LS-4). After each type of lipsticks were molded, LS-1 and LS-3 was put into a cooling chamber ($5^{\circ}C$). LS-2 and LS-4 was put into a cooling chamber ($5^{\circ}C$) for 18 hours and kept in an incubator ($45^{\circ}C$) for 5 hours and put again into a cool chamber ($5^{\circ}C$). After that, the wax's three dimensional network structure was observed under scanning electron microscopy. Regardless of the kind of oil, the LS-1 and LS-3 wax structure had more distinct shape than the lipstick wax structure of LS-2 and LS-4. Also, regardless of the kind of wax, the three dimensional network structure was modified as the storage temperature increased. As a result, the lipstick's molding temperature increased, the wax's structure size also increased and the shape irregularly modified. This modification causes sweating phenomenon which affected lipstick's surface rheological property.

The purpose of this study is to determine the evolution of carbon and nitrogen concentrations in relation to dry matter and crude protein accumulation in the leaves of forage rape(Brassica napus Subsp. oleifera, CV. Swiss) during the growth period. Field-grown plants were sampled at intervals throughout fall, winter, early and late spring. During over-wintering period(from Nov. 7 1991 to Feb. 4 1992), the carbon concentration in the leaves increased from 382 mg to 435 mg g DM$^{-1}$ , while the concentrations of nitrogen and crude protein significantly decreased. There was little accumulation of fresh and dry matter in the leaves. On early spring growth from 4 Feb. to 30 Mar. marked carbon loss 37 mg. day$^{-1}$ and slight nitrogen accumulation occurred with the increase of fresh weight in the leaves. From spring growth to bolting stage(from 31 Mar. to 16 Apr.) the greatest accumulation of fresh and dry matter was observed and carbon and crude protein concentrations increased with a linear manner. After bolting stage the concentrations of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen and crude protein in the leaves significantly decreased until late blooming stage, and the decreasing rate was prominent in nitrogen (45.7%) and crude protein(46%). From the results above it is recommended that fertilizer will be applied before early spring growth, and that optimal utilization period is a bolting stage. For the serious modification of the internal C/N balance during the overwintering period.
