A Color Discerning Device(CDD) is the equipment to use in Rice Processing Complex(RPC). By use a high-speed charge-coupled device camera, CDD can sorting discolored grain according to light and shade. The existing CDD's driving performance is not so good as overseas machine. Besides, transportation process causes a defect in the mechanism from impact or harmonic excitation or etc. This study is represented the problem of CDD through modal analysis and static analysis by using ANSYS workbench. To analysis the problem of driving condition, devide each part of CDD for performed modal analysis. The problem of driving condition and transportation process solved by carry out modal analysis and static analysis.

Citrullinemia type 2 (citrin deficiency) is an autosomal recessive inborn error metabolism, caused by the SLC25A13 gene mutation. Citrin deficiency is associated with two clinical phenotype; neonatal-onset type II citrullinemia (CTLN2), also known as neonatal intraphepatic cholestasis caused by citrin deficiency (NICCD) and adult-onset CTLN2. Clinical manifestations of NICCD include poor growth, intrahepatic cholestasis, liver dysfunction and increased plasma citrulline, methionine, threonine, arginine. The molecular diagnosis could be confirmed by SLC25A13 gene mutation analysis. A 3-month-old male infant with persistent jaundice was referred for evaluation. Newborn screening was normal at birth. Mild elevation of serum ammonia and AST/ALT were observed. Plasma amino acid analysis showed significantly elevated citrulline, methionine, threonine. DNA sequence analysis of the SLC25A13 gene revealed two compound heterozygous mutations, c.[852_855del]($p.Met285Profs^*2$) and [1180+1G>A]. We suggest that NICCD should be considered as one of the cause of in infants with cholestatic jaundice, although the newborn screening was normal.

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD, OMIM#248600) is a rare and autosomal recessively-inherited metabolic disorder that is caused by mutations in the branched-chain ${\alpha}$-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKDH) genes. It prevents the normal breakdown of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), such as leucine, isoleucine, and valine, and leads to poor feeding, lethargy, abnormal movements, seizure, and death if untreated. Here, we report the case of a Korean newborn of biochemically- and genetically-confirmed MSUD manifesting lethargy and central apnea, the acute state of which was successfully treated. The molecular genetic investigation revealed two novel heterozygous mutations (p.Ala32Phefs*48 and p.Val 130Phe) in BCKDHB, and both parents were confirmed as carriers. We emphasize the importance of early diagnosis and prompt introduction of specific treatment for MSUD in life saving and prognosis.
