The equivalent conductances of sodium, potassium, ammonium, tetramethylammonium, triethylammonium, diethylammonium and ethylammonium iodide, and picrate salts of sodium and potassium in ethylene carbonate have been measured at 40.0 $^{\circ}C. The limiting equivalent conductances of the salts have been computed by Fuoss-Onsager-Skinner equation. The limiting ionic equivalent conductances of $Na^+,\;K^+,\;and\;NH^+$ are in order of $Na^+ which is the reverse order of solvation for the ions in any solution, And the order of limiting ionic equivalent conductances for alkylammonium ions is $(C_2H_5)_4N^+<(C_2H_5)_3NH^+<(CH_3)_4N^+<(C_2H_5)_2NH_2^+<(C_2H_5)NH_3^+$ which coincides with the order of mass transfer. From the dissociation constants of the saltss determinde by Fuoss-Kraus method, it is found that ethyene carbonate is a good ionizing solvent for the salts. In addition, Stokes radii and effective fadii of ions have been calculated by Stokes law and Nightingale method, repectively. From the results, it appears tha alkylammonium ions and picrate ion seem to be not solvated, and tha iodide ion is fairly solvated in ethylene carbonate.

Whole cassava (Manihot esculenta, Crantz) crop was harvested about 10-15 cm above ground at 3 months after planting and sun dried for 1-3 days or until the leaves were crispy-dried and the branches and stems were mostly wilted to produce cassava hay. Cassava hay (CH) contained 86.3% DM, 8.9% ash, 23.6% CP, 44.3% NDF, 30.0% ADF, 5.8% ADL, 0.257% condensed tannin and 0.35 mg % HCN, respectively. In addition, CH contained relatively higher amino acid than alfalfa hay especially methionine, isoleucine, leucine and lysine. Ruminal fermentation of CH resulted in high concentrations of $C_2$, $C_3$, and $C_4$ at 72, 17 and 7 mol/100 mole, respectively. A feeding trial was conducted to study on effect of feeding of cassava hay in late lactating dairy cows fed on urea-treated rice straw during the dry season on their intake, ruminal pH, $NH_3$-N, milk yield and compositions. Thirty, Holstein-Friesian crossbred cows in their first lactation were randomly assigned in a randomized complete block design to receive five different dietary treatments: T1=supplementation of concentrate to milk yield at 1:2, T2=supplementation of concentrate to milk yield at 1:2+0.56 kg DM, T3=supplementation of concentrate to milk yield at 1:3+1.3 kg DM CH, T4=supplementation of concentrate to milk yield at 1:4+1.70 kg DM CH, T5=CH fed on ad libitum+small concentrate supplement. All cows received urea-treated rice straw as a roughage source throughout a 80 d feeding trial. The experiment revealed that cassava hay contained high level of protein and minimal level of tannin at 3 months of harvest. Tannin intake ranged from 1.44 to 13.36 g/hd/d and did not affect on urea-treated rice straw intake. Milk yield across treatments were similar (5.4-6.3 kg/hd/d) (p>0.05) but 3.5% FCM was highest in cows received CH at 1.70 kg/hd/d. Feeding of cassava hay resulted in increasing milk fat (4.0 to 4.6%) (p<0.05) and milk protein (3.8 to 5.3%) (p<0.05). Moreover, the use of CH could reduce concentrate supplementation to milk yield from 1:2 to 1:4, respectively, thus resulted in more milk income return.

Significant structure theory was applied to some liquid mixture systems ranging from simple monatomic molecule systems to polyatomic molecule systems, and the activity coefficients ${\gamma}$ of the liquid mixture systems were calculated over whole mole fractions using the following thermodynamic relation $RTln_{{\gamma}i} = (\frac{{\partial A}^E}{{\partial N}_i})_{T,V,N_i} $ where $A^E$ represents the excess Helmholtz free energy, and $N_i$ is the number of molecules of component i. The activity coefficients of the solutions such as monatomic molecule systems (Ar-Kr, Kr-Xe) and diatomic molecule systems $(Ar-O_2,\;N_2-CO)$ and $CH_4-Kr$ systems whose components have similar shapes for intermolecular potential curves were calculated successfully only with the ${\delta}E_s$, correction parameter for energy $E_s$, for mixture systems. For other systems such as $Ar-N_2,\;O_2-N_2\;and\;CH_4-C_3H_8$ whose components have dissimilar intermolecular potential curve shapes an additional correction parameters ${\delta}$V and even one more parameter ${\delta}$n were necessary [see Eqs.(10)∼(12)].

Even though fuel cell have high efficiency when pure hydrogen from gas tank is used as a fuel source, it is more beneficial to generate hydrogen from city gas (mainly methane) in residential application such as domestic or office environments. Thus hydrogen is generated by reforming process using hydrocarbon. Unfortunately, the reforming process for hydrogen production is accompanied with unavoidable impurities. Impurities such as CO, $CO_2$, $H_2S$, $NH_3$, $CH_4$, and $CH_4$ in hydrogen could cause negative effects on fuel cell performance. Those effects are kinetic losses due to poisoning of the electrode catalysts, ohmic losses due to proton conductivity reduction including membrane and catalyst ionomer layers, and mass transport losses due to degrading catalyst layer structure and hydrophobic property. Hydrogen produced from reformer eventually contains around 73% of $H_2$, 20% or less of $CO_2$, 5.8% of less of $N_2$, or 2% less of $CH_4$, and 10ppm or less of CO. This study is aimed at investigating the effect of carbon dioxide on fuel cell performance. The performance of PEM fuel cell was investigated using current vs. potential experiment, long run(10 hr) test, and electrochemical impedance measurement when the concentrations of carbon dioxide were 10%, 20% and 30%. Also, the concentration of impurity supplied to the fuel cell was verified by gas chromatography(GC).

Agar was prepared from domestic agarophyte (Gelidium amansii) by a process of acid extraction. Optimal conditions in the acid treatment of the seaweed and the gelling properties of the agar thus prepared were investigated. The yield and gel strength of the control (the agar extracted with distilled water) showed 13,3% and 306g/$cm^2$, respectively. The yield of 38.7% was obtained when agar was extracted with 0.007N Hydorchloric acid while the gel strength of agar,511g/$cm^2$ was observed with the agar extracted with 0.005N Hydorchloric acid solution. The agar extracted with hydrochloric acid solution showed excellent properties of agar at the acid concentration range 0.005N-0.01N The cooking time of 60 min. was found to be effective to the yield and also to the gelling property of the agar and the cooking longer than 60 min. was proved to be destructive to agar. In general, yield and gelling properties of the agar obtained showed a close relation to the acid concentration and cooking time, but no consistent influence on the contents of ash and sulfur trioxide.

Objective: The objectives of this study were to investigate the relationship between the mRNA expression of adipocyte type fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) and heart type FABP (H-FABP) in Thai native chicken crossbreeds and evaluate the level of exotic inclusion in native chicken that will improve growth while maintaining its relatively low carcass fat. Methods: The fat deposition traits and mRNA expression of A-FABP and H-FABP were evaluated at 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks of age in 4 chicken breeds (n = 8/breed/wk) (100% Chee breed [CH] [100% Thai native chicken background], CH male and broiler female [Kaimook e-san1; KM1] [50% CH background], broiler male and KM1 female [Kaimook e-san2; KM2] [25% CH background], and broiler [BR]) using abdominal fat (ABF) and muscular tissues. Results: The BR breed was only evaluated at 6 weeks of age. At week 6, the CH breed had a significantly lower A-FABP expression in ABF and intramuscular fat (IF) compared with the other breeds. At 8 to 12 weeks, the KM2 groups showed significant upregulation (p<0.05) of A-FABP in both ABF and IF compared to the CH and KM1 groups. The expression of H-FABP did not follow any consistent pattern in both ABF and IF across the different ages. Conclusion: Some level of crossbreeding CH chickens can be done to improve growth rate while maintaining their low ABF and IF. The expression level of A-FABP correlate with most fat traits. There was no consistency of H-FABP expression across breed. A-FABPs is involved in fat deposition, genetic markers in these genes could be used in marker assisted studies to select against excessive fat accumulation.

When phenylation of styrene was carried out in the presence of Pd(OAc)2 and PPh3 in benzene, trans-stilbene was obtained in good yield (566%) with high selectivity (98%) under mild condition (55 ℃, 50 psi O2, 20 h). Since trans-stilbene could be produced not only from benzene but also from phenyl group of PPh3 by migration of its phenyl group to Pd, the competitiveness of benzene and the migratory aptitude of aryl group of triarylphosphine toward styrene has been investigated with various phosphines (PR3: P(p-C6H4CH3)3, P(p-C6H4OCH3)3, P(p-C6H4F)3, P(p-C6H4Cl)3, P(C6H5)3, P(C6H11)3, P(OC4H9n)3, P(CH2C6H5)3 and P(C6F5)3). The yield and selectivity toward trans-stilbene are increased as the basicity of the phosphines increases. The composition of arylated olefin from arylphosphine, in turn, increases as the electronegativity of the substituent on the aryl group of arylphosphines increases.

This study was conducted to investigate the biochemical properties of isolated bacteria, low temperature tolerant methane-producing clostridia which were selected for using them as inoculum to anaerobic fermentation of agricultural and livestock wastes at low temperature. The results were; 1. Low temperature tolerant methane-producing clostridia were isolated from the samples which showed the high methanogenesis rate by enrichment culture at low temperature in cellulose medium. These clostridia, Clostridium botulinum SRC-64, Clostridium scatologens SRC-91 and Clostridium tyrobutyricum SRC-100, were isolated from swampy sediment at latitude $56.9^{\circ}N$, lake sediment IV at latitude $55.0^{\circ}N$, and tidal land soil II at latitude $37.0^{\circ}N$, respectively. The optimum growth temperature for these isolates was $37^{\circ}C$ and the minimum, around $10^{\circ}C$. They all had detectable amount of $F_{420}$, specific coenzyme of methanogens. 2. As anaerobic fermentation products of glucose SRC-64 produced $H_2$, acetic, isovaleric and caproic acid, SRC-91 produced $H_2$, propionic, butyric, valeric, and caproic acid, and SRC-100 produced only acetic and propionic acid. The isolates were produced $CH_4$ ranged from 2.6 to 8.68 n moles/ml for 2 days at $13^{\circ}C$.

The aim of this study was to establish the appropriate guidelines in the sedation techniques and to organize the continuing education programs for the sedation in future under the direction of Committee on Sedation, Education and Research under the Korean Academy of Pediatric Dentistry(KAPD). The surveys on the sedation technique were performed on 111 organizations which practices the sedation and responded to the survey via online and e-mail by February 2014. The collected survey were analyzed. The purpose of sedation was mainly to manage the children's behavior and its uses were primarily on 3~4 years old children. The most frequent duration of treatment was 1~2 hours to treat both maxillary and mandible. The preferred dosages of sedative drugs were chloral hydrate(CH) 50~70 mg/kg, hydorxyzine(Hx) 1~2 mg/kg, and intramuscular midazolam(Mida IM) 0.1~0.2 mg/kg. The preferred combination of the sedative drugs were CH + Hx + $N_2O/O_2$(67.6%), CH + Hx + Mida submucosal administration (SM) + $N_2O/O_2$(29.7%), and Mida IM + $N_2O/O_2$(23.4%). The administration of additional sedatives was carried out at 48%, mainly using Midazolam. 87.5% of the respondents experienced the adverse effects of the sedation such as vomiting/retching, agitation during recovery, subclinical respiratory depression, staggering, and etc. Among them, only 20% periodically retrain the emergency management protocol. About the discharge criteria for patients after the sedation, the respondents either showed a lack of clear criteria or did not follow the recommended discharge criteria. 86% of the respondents expressed the interests in taking a course on the sedation and they wanted to learn mostly about the sedation-related emergency management, the safe dosage of the sedative drugs, and etc. The use of sedation in pediatric dentistry must be consider a patient's safety as top priority and each dentist must show the evidence of sound practices for the prevention of any possible medical errors. Therefore, KAPD must establish the proper sedation guidelines and it needs to provide the systematic technical training program of sedation-related emergency management for pediatric dentists.
