Quantile regression can estimate multiple conditional quantile functions of the response, and as a result, it provide comprehensive information of the relationship between the response and the predictors. However, when estimating several conditional quantile functions separately, two or more estimated quantile functions may cross or overlap and consequently violate the basic properties of quantiles. In this paper, we propose a new stepwise method to estimate multiple non-crossing quantile functions using constraints on the kernel coefficients. A simulation study are presented to demonstrate satisfactory performance of the proposed method.

As standard unit root tests are empirically proved to fail to reject the null hypothesis of a unit root for many economic and business time series, it is doubtful that most of those series are informative about the existence of a unit root or that those tests are powerful against relevant alternative hypotheses. This study attempts to perform tests of the null hypothesis of stationarity as well as tests of the null hypothesis of a unit root using the time series data of housing prices in the major metropolitan areas. The results of the additional analyses such as lead-lag, cross-correlation and impulse response for testing the statistical interrelationships between the prices are generally found to be consistent.

In this study, multiplex PCR and real-time PCR were performed on Theragra chalcogramma (walleye pollock), Pangasianodon hypophthalmus (iridescent shark) and their processed foods, such as changnan-jeot and gaiyang-jeot (salted iridescent shark intestine). Species-specific primers for T. chalcogramma and P. hypophthalmus were designed, and genomic DNA was directly extracted from each sample to perform single PCR and multiplex PCR. As a result of PCR, in the case of single PCR, PCR bands of T. chalcogramma (297 bp) and P. hypophthalmus (132 bp) were identified, and in the case of multiplex PCR, it was confirmed that amplification occurred without cross-reaction between T. chalcogramma and P. hypophthalmus. As a result of checking the PCR sensitivity, the concentration of genomic DNA was detected up to 0.1 ng/µL in both single PCR and multiplex PCR. The real-time PCR results showed that the average Ct value of T. chalcogramma was 20.765±0.691, and the average Ct value of P. hypophthalmus sample was 35.719±1.828 in the T. chalcogramma species-specific primers. In the P. hypophthalmus species-specific primers, the average Ct value of the T. chalcogramma sample was 35.996±1.423, and the mean Ct value of the P. hypophthalmus sample was 20.096±0.793. These results demonstrated the significant differences in the efficiency, specificity and cross-reactivity of species-specific primers in real-time PCR. Based on these findings, 7 of changnan-jeot or gaiyang-jeot products were confirmed by multiplex PCR and real-time PCR, and valid results were confirmed in all samples.

This study was conducted to investigate the resistance of Botrytis cinerea to azoxystrobin, which belongs to strobilurin fungicides. The sensitivity of B. cinerea isolates, which were collected from infected pepper, strawberry, cucumber and tomato by a single spore isolation, to the fungicide was tested through a agar dilution method on PDA amended with fungicides and $100{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ of salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM). All isolates of B. cinerea tested in this study were classified as a sensitive and a resistant group by $1.0{\mu}g\;mL^{-1}$ of $EC_{50}$ value to azoxystrobin. While the sensitive isolates accounted for 46.5% of B. cinerea population, the resistant ones did for 53.5%. According to the regions isolating B. cinerea, the highest isolation frequency was showed as 81.1% in Chungnam among the all. Among 4 host plants as pepper, strawberry, cucumber and tomato, the highest isolation frequency was obtained in strawberry, while the lowest was done in pepper. The isolate resistant to azoxystrobin showed the cross resistance to other fungicides included into strobilurins as kresoxim-methyl and trifloxystrobin. In spite of an excellent efficacy of strobilurins, it should be taken care to use them in the field, because of the high risk in the fields.

Aquifer responses to the river stage fluctuations were analyzed between the groundwater level and the river stage in an alluvial aquifer. The auto-correlation and cross-correlation as a time series analysis were applied. Study site is a floodplain in the Mangyeong river. Groundwater levels in each depth representing the silt and sand(SS), gravel and sand(GS), and weathered zone(WZ) layer were monitored. The groundwater levels were more sensitive to the river stage fluctuations than rainfall. Since the river stages are influenced by the gate operations downstream and tide, show periodic patterns, and the correlation coefficients with rainfall is low. Cross-correlation function between groundwater level in each depth do not show any delay time, then response time is very short to each depth. Cross-correlation analysis were performed to estimate the response time of groundwater levels to river stage fluctuations. Groundwater levels respond to the river stage within 30 minutes to 1 hour in wells near the stream. Short time lag between groundwater level and river stage indicates the quick response. A different response time imply the hydraulic inhomogeneity of the site, and a probable high permeability zone between river and aquifer can be inferred. Mangyeong-river in study site is a gaining stream normally, and river stage rising by gate operation or floods makes river water flow into groundwater. The auto-correlation and cross-correlation functions as a time series analysis can be a good tool to interpret the aquifer responses to stream stage fluctuation

Present modeling study of nanoenergetics focuses on the numerical simulation of reaction wave propagation in normal direction across nanoscale multilayers of aluminum and nickel combination. The governing equations for atomic and thermal diffusion are employed in one-dimensional semi-infinitely alternating Al/Ni multilayered structures and the numerical results show the established patterns of quasi-steady intermetallic reaction waves. Also, the reaction wave speed is confirmed to be highly independent of reaction wave directions in such nanoenergetic structures.

본 실험은 성숙가토의 정자와 정장의 항원성을 조사하여 면역적 불임원인 규명에 필요한 기초자료를 얻고자 시도하였다. 인공질로 채취한 정액을 원심분리하여 얻은 정자와 정장을 항원으로 사용하였으며 항원성의 측정방법은 크로마토그라프에 의한 단백질 분리, SDS-PAGE, HPLC, 한천확산법, 전기영동, 수동적혈구응집방법 및 부동화시험이었다. 얻어진 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. SDS-PAGE 전기영동시 정상가토 정장에서 약 23개의 단백질이 분리되었고, 그중 분자량이 약 20,000되는 단백질부분이 정관절제 수술한 정장에서 나타나지 않았다. 2. 정상가토 정장을 HPLC를 이용한 분석에서 3개의 peaks을 볼 수 있었고, 정관절제수술한 것에서는 peak 1에 해당하는 단백질이 소실되었다. 3. 한천확산시험에서 정상정장은 이종혈청과는 4개의 침강선을 나타냈고, 전기영동에서는 7개의 침강선을 나타냈다. 4. 이종면역에서 정자 및 정장은 항체가 상승이 용이하였지만, 동종면역시는 추가면역이 필요하였으며 개체간의 역가차이를 보였다. 정자면역한 자성가토에서는 수동적혈구응집반응을 나타냈지만, 한천확산 및 전기영동반응은 보이지 않았고, 같은 처치를 받은 웅성가토에서도 역시 같은 반응양상을 나타냈다. 5. 동종 및 이종항혈청을 이용한 교차전기영동방법으로 정장의 항원적 구성요소를 구별할 수 있었다. 사출된 정액에서 분리된 정장은 일부 항원을 포함하고 있었으며 이는 성숙한 정자에서 기인한 것으로 사료되었다.

A sandwich ELISA (sELISA) to detect pork in processed foods was developed using goat anti-pig IgG antibodies. From the sELISA standard curve, the detection range of pork was $3-1,000{\mu}g/mL$. The cross-reactivity between the pig IgG antibodies, pork, and other meats (beef, chicken, fish, and crustaceas) was 100, 0.18, and 0%, respectively. When pork was heated for 10 min, the mean assay recoveries of pig-IgG were 79-32% at $60-70^{\circ}C$ and less than 0.11% at $80^{\circ}C$ or higher. When pork was spiked into cream soup, weaning food, fish paste, and sauce, the mean assay recoveries were 8.8, 45, 36, and 39%, respectively. In 12 commercial processed foods, the assay results coincided qualitatively with the food labels on the packages.

This study was conducted to produce the egg yolk Imunoglobulin (IgY) on Vibrio parahaemolyticus from immunized hen with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Vibrio parahaemolyticus is considered as a potentially pathogenic bacteria, the causative agents of the gastroenteritis. According as the LPS antigens were injected into laying hens in order to produce antibodies against Vibrio parahaemolyticus in egg yolk. After chickens were immunized four times in 2 weeks interval and three times booster in 2 weeks interval, the profile of antibody Production was examined by ELISA. The Production of antibody in egg yolk was started in 1 week after the first immunization, reached peak in 7 weeks and maintained until 13 weeks later. The antibody titre in serum showed similar tendency as IgY. No significant difference in antibody titre when the titre compared to water diluted IgY and commercial IgY kit. Purified IgY reacted with only Vibrio parahaemolyticus, but other Vibrio species and food-borne pathogenic bacteria. In conclusion, we showed that it is possible to obtain a high antibody titre in chicken with quite low amounts of LPS antigen. These results suggested that egg yolk antibodies could be a good source for production of specific antibodies to pathogenic bacteria inducing epidemic gastroenteritis.
