Cellulase와 xylanase 분비능이 우수한 고온성 부숙촉진 세균을 분리하기 위하여 진주 인근지역의 새송이버섯 재배농장으로부터 새송이버섯 수확 후 배지를 수집하였다. 새송이버섯 수확 후 배지로부터 23종의 균주를 분리하였으며 이 중 cellulase와 xylanase을 동시에 분비하는 균주를 최종 선발하여 SJ21으로 명명하였다. Bacillus ID kit와 VITEK 2 system를 이용하여 분리균 SJ21의 생리적 생화학적 특성을 조사한 결과 분리균 SJ21은 B. lincheniformis와 유사한 특징을 나타내었으며 16S rDNA 염기서열 분석결과에서는 B. subtilis와 99%의 상동성을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합하여 분리균 SJ21은 Bacillus sp. SJ21 로 동정되었다. 분리균이 분비하는 cellulase와 xylanase 활성은 분리균이 증식함에 따라 대수증식기 중반부터 급격히 증가하였고 정지기에 진입하면 효소활성이 더 이상증가하지 않는 것으로 나타났으며 xylanase 활성은 대수증식기 초기부터 지속적으로 증가하여 대수증식기 중반에 최대활성을 나타내었다.

An antiviral producing bacterial strain was isolated from a ginseng rhizosphere in Kangwon province of Republic of Korea. In order to identify the bacterial strain, microbiological, physiological and biochemical tests were performed, along with RAPD, 16S rRNA, 16S-23S rRNA ITS (intergenic spacer region) and DNA-DNA hybridization analyses. The bacterium was found to be a strain of Pseudomonas fluorescens, which was designated as Gpf01. The strain was grown in Muller-Hinton (MH) broth, and the culture supernatant obtained was filtered through a $0.45{\mu}l$ filter. It was further boiled at $100^{\circ}C$ and tested in two experiments for its ability to control a yellow strain of Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV-Y). In the first experiment, boiled culture filtrate (RCF) was treated on one half of the leaves of Chenopodium amaranticolor followed by CMV- Y inoculation on both halves. In the second experiment, BCF was treated on the lower leaves of Nicotiana tobacum var. Xanthi-nc, with the CMV-Y mechanically inoculated onto the upper untreated leaves. In the first experiment, BCF treatment was able to considerably reduce the number of viral lesion, and in the second experiment, plants treated with BCF showed no visible viral symptoms compared to the Muller-Hinton (MH) media treated controls 15 days post inoculation (dpi), and remained symptomless throughout the study period. Thus, Gpf01, identified as P. fluorescence, was able to produce an antiviral component in the culture filtrate, which was found to be heat stable, non-phytotoxic and effective in local as well as systemic hosts of CMV.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most prevalent malignancy among males in India. While tobacco and alcohol are main aetiological factors, human papilloma virus (HPV) presence has surprisingly increased in head and neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) in the past two decade but its frequency in OSCCS is still uncertain. We aim to explore the frequency of HPV and its major genotypes in North Indian patients and their association with clinicopathological and histopathological features and p16 expression pattern. Materials and Methods: The study group comprised 250 histologically proven cases of OSCC. HPV was detected by real time PCR in tumor biopsy specimens and confirmed by conventional PCR with PGMY09/PGMY11 primers. Genotyping for high-risk types 16/18 was conducted by type specific PCR. p16 expression was assessed by immunohistochemsitry. Results: HPV presence was confirmed in 23/250 (9.2%) OSCC cases, of which 30.4% had HPV 16 infection, 17.4%were positive for HPV 18 and 26.1% had co-infections. HPV presence was significantly associated with male gender (p=0.02) and habit of pan masala chewing (p=0.01). HPV positive cases also had a history of tobacco consumption in 91.3% cases. p16 over expression was observed in 39.1% of HPV positive cases but this was not significantly different from negative cases (p=0.54). Conclusions: The frequency of HPV in OSCC is low in North-India and majority of cases are associated with a tobacco habit. It appears that tobacco shows a confounding effect in HPV positive cases and use of p16 protein as a reliable marker to assess the potential etiological role of HPV in OSCC in our population is not suggested.

This study estimated the effects of parity (1-3) and stage of lactation (early, mid and late) on daily milk yield (DMY), somatic cell score (SCS), milk urea nitrogen (MUN), blood glucose, and immunoglobulin G (IgG), their heritabilities and genetic correlations between them in Holsteins (n = 200). Means and standard deviations of DMY, SCS, MUN, blood glucose, and IgG in the experimental herd were $23.35{\pm}7.75kg$, $3.81{\pm}2.00$, $13.99{\pm}5.68mg/dl$, $44.91{\pm}13.12mg/dl$, and $30.36{\pm}6.72mg/ml$, respectively. DMY was the lowest in first parity, and in late lactation. SCS increased with parity; however, it was lowest in mid-lactation. MUN was lowest in first parity, and no difference was noted across stage of lactation. Blood glucose was similar between parities, however the highest blood glucose was observed during mid lactation. IgG level was significantly different between first and second parity; however, stage of lactation did not affect its level. Heritability of DMY was 0.16. Its genetic correlations with SCS and with blood glucose were -0.67 and 0.98, respectively. Heritability of SCS was 0.15. Genetic correlations of SCS with MUN, glucose, and IgG were -0.72, -0.59, and 0.68, respectively. Heritability of MUN was estimated to be 0.39 and had a genetic correlation of -0.35 with IgG. Heritabilities of blood glucose and IgG were 0.21 and 0.33, respectively. This study suggested that MUN, blood glucose and IgG could be considered important traits in future dairy selection programs to improve milk yield and its quality with better animal health and welfare. However, further studies are necessary involving more records to clarify the relationship between metabolic and immunological traits with DMY and its quality.

CFRP(Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics) has many industrial applications due to its low weight and high strength properties. Due to its superior properties, for example, excellent resistance to fatigue wear, corrosion, and breakage from fatigue, it has been widely applicable to aircraft, automotive, and medical industries and so on. The main machining for CFRP is drilling, and route milling. In case of drilling, the machining defects such as the delamination of each layer, uncut fiber, resin burning, spalling, and exit burrs are inevitable. The issue to remove such kind of defects is necessary to make CFRP parts successful. From this point of view, this paper investigates the removal effectiveness of machining defects existing at exit region with different type of tool geometries. Consequently, based on the experiments, the tool geometry is most impact factor to remove uncut fiber or resin.

Rare-earth barium copper oxide (REBCO) coated conductor (CC) tapes have already been commercialized but still possess some issues in terms of manufacturing cost, anisotropic in-field performance, $I_c$ response to mechanical loads such as delamination, homogeneity of current transport property, and production length. Development on improving its performance properties to meet the needs in practical device applications is underway and simplification of the tape's architecture and manufacturing process are also being considered to enhance the performance-cost ratio. As compared to low temperature superconductors (LTS), high temperature superconductor (HTS) REBCO CC tapes provide a much wider range of operating temperature and a higher critical current density at 4.2 K making it more attractive in magnet and coil applications. The superior properties of the REBCO CC tapes under magnetic field have led to the development of superconducting magnets capable of producing field way above 23.5 T. In order to achieve its optimum performance, the electromechanical properties under different deformation modes and magnetic field should be evaluated for practical device design. This paper gives an overview of the effects of mechanical stress/strain on $I_c$ in HTS CC tapes due to uniaxial tension, bending deformation, transverse load, and including the electrical performance of a CC tape joint which were performed by our group at ANU in the last decade.

Pushbroom위성 영상의 카메라 모델링을 위한 대표적 방법들을 구현하고 성능을 분석하였다. 구현된 모델들은 벡터 진행 모델, Gugan and Dowman(GD)의 모델, 상용 소프트웨어의 근간을 이루는 Orun and Natarajan(ON)의 모델, Direct Linear Transformation(DLT)모델이다. 서울/경기지역 의 SPOT 영상에 대해 지상기준점의 수를 1개에서 23개까지 변화하면서 카메라 모델을 수립하였다. 지상기준점이 6개 미만인 경우에는 벡터 진행 모델이 최고 2.7픽셀의 정확도를 보인 반면 이외의 모델들은 사용할 수 없다. 6개 이상인 경우에는 ON모델이 최고 1픽셀의 정확도로 가장 우수한 성능을 보인다. 이때 벡터 진행 모델은 최고 1.5픽셀의 정확도를 갖는다. GD모델은 모델 변수간의 상관관계로 인하여 대부분의 경우 모델 수립에 실패하였다. DLT모델의 정확도는 특정 지상기준점의 포함여부에 따라 1∼4픽셀 사이에서 진동한다. 모델링의 부산물로서 벡터 진행 모델은 위성궤도 추정에 응용할 수 있는 장점이 있다 향후 연구 과제로는 위에서 열거한 정확도로부터 지상기준점에 내재한 오차 제거, 벡터 진행 모델의 성능 향상 등이 있다.

유기용제 안정제로 사용되는 1,4-다이옥산($C_4H_8O_2$)은 높은 용해도와 독성으로 인해 생태계에 유해하며 미국 EPA 의해 발암가능성이 있는 물질로 분류되어 있다. 국내에서도 환경부에 따르면 2011년부터 수계로의 배출허용기준이 5 mg/L로 추진될 예정에 있다. 따라서 구미의 폴리에스테르 제조 공정에서 발생되는 현재 운전 중인 활성슬러지가 1,4-다이옥산을 기준에 적합하도록 적절하게 처리할 수 있는지를 조사하였다. 이와 같은 목적으로 일부 회사(K, H 및 T)를 대상으로 1,4-다이옥산의 제거율 및 미생물학적 속성이 평가되었다. 처리효율은 H사에서 98%로 가장 높았으며 K사는 77%로 두 개 사 모두 유출농도가 기준에 부합하였다. 그러나 T사 유출수의 1,4-다이옥산 농도는 23 mg/L로 기준보다 높았다. 한편, 각 업체의 활성슬러지를 100 ppm의 1,4-다이옥산이 포함된 BSM(Basal salt medium)에 식종하여 생물학적 분해실험을 수행하였다. 7일간의 운전 후, H사의 슬러지를 이용한 시험에서 1,4-다이옥산이 완전히 제거되었으며 T사는 67%, K사는 52%로 이 처리효율의 차이는 1,4-다이옥산의 양이 아닌 주어진 활성 슬러지의 생분해능이 서로 다른 것에 의한 것임을 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로 각 산업체의 미생물 다양성이 16s rDNA cloning 방법을 통해 조사되었으며 Methylibium petroleiphilum PM1이 H사에서 가장 많이 발견되었으며 K사에서 적은 양이, 그리고 T사에서는 발견되지 않았다. Methylibium petroleiphilum PM1은 methyl tertiary-butyl ether(MTBE)와 같은 에테르 물질을 효과적으로 제거하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 산업분야의 관점에서 H사의 활성 슬러지가 1,4-다이옥산의 생분해에 가장 효과적으로 적용될 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

For wastewater treatment and utilization of the biomass, a photosynthetic bacterium was isolated based on its cell growth rate, cell mass, and assimilating ability of organic acids. The isolate was a Gram-negative rod-shaped bacterium that contained a single polar flagellum and formed a lamellar intracytoplasmic membrane (ICM) system, including bacteriochlorophyll $\alpha$. The major isoprenoid quinone component was identified as ubiquinone Q-10, and the fatty acid composition was characterized as to contain relatively large amount of C-16:0 (18.74%) and C-18:1 (59.23%). Based on its morphology, phototrophic properties, quinone component, and fatty acid composition, the isolate appeared to be closely related to the Rhodopseudomonas subgroup of purple nonsulfur bacteria. A phylogenetic analysis of the isolate using its 16S rRNA gene sequence data also supported the phenotypic findings, and classified the isolate closely related to Rhodopseudomonas palustris. Accordingly, the nomenclature of the isolate was proposed as Rhodopseudomonas palustris KUGB306. A bench-scale photosynthetic bacteria (PSB) reactor using the isolate was designed and operated for the treatment of soybean curd wastewater.
