Adsorption of metanil yellow onto granular activated carbon were studied in a batch system. Various operation parameters such as adsorbent dosage, pH, initial concentration, contact time and temperature were optimized. Experimental equilibrium adsorption data were analyzed by Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm. The equilibrium process was described well by Freundlich isotherm model. From determined separation factor (1/n), adsorption of metanil yellow by granular activated carbon could be employed as effective treatment method. By analysis of kinetic experimental data, the adsorption process were found to confirm to the pseudo second order model with good correlation and the adsorption rate constant ($k^2$) decreased with increasing initial concentration. Thermodynamic parameters like activation energy, change of free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were also calculated to predict the nature adsorption in the temperature range of 298~318 K. The activation energy was determined as 23.90 kJ/mol. It was found that the adsortpion of metanil yellow on the granular activated carbon was physical process. The negative Gibbs free energy change (${\Delta}G=-2.16{\sim}-6.55kJ/mol$) and the positive enthalpy change (${\Delta}H=+23.29kJ/mol$) indicated the spontaneous and endothermic nature of the adsorption process, respectively.

The physical properties of chlorine-containing cement were analyzed to optimize the operational conditions when waste resources containing chlorine were used in the cement manufacturing process. Cement with clinker to gypsum weight ratios of 95:5 and 93:7 were manufactured. In addition, the iron modulus (IM) of clinker was set to 1.3, 1.5, and 1.7 to evaluate the burnability and physical properties of clinker. With constant chlorine content, increasing gypsum content resulted in a decrease in the 3 day-compressive strength, whereas the 28 day-compressive strength increased. In addition, flow and setting time also increased with increasing gypsum content. As the IM decreased, burnability was improved, free-CaO content decreased, alite and ferrite content increased, and compressive strength increased In particular, the compressive strength of IM 1.3 was approximately 14% greater than that of IM 1.7.

Morphological characteristic during formation of tobacco crown gall tumor and genetic tumor, and their differential response to growth regulator were investigated in in vitro culture. Crown gall tumor was induced from tumor tissue transformed by infecting Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58. Genetic tumor was induced from tumor tissue which was induced spontaneously from reciprocal interspecific hybrids between Nicotiana glauca (2n=24) and Nicotiana langsdorffii (2n=18). Morphological characteristic of crown gall tumor, genetic tumor, and teratoma shoot was very similar, and they were actively proliferated on hormone-free medium. Typical tumor callus and teratoma shoot formed from crown gall tumor on the hormone-free medium. On the contrary, tumor callus derived from genetic tumor formed as a crown gall tumor callus on the medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L of 2,4-D, and lots of teratoma shoots without any root formed on the hormone-free medium. Root development from the teratoma shoots was hardly obtained on the medium with IAA, GA and active carbon. However, teratoma shoots with roots, as normal shoots, were initiated occasionally on the hormone-free medium. These shoots also formed new genetic tumor on the stem, which leaves formed lots of teratoma shoot on the hormone-free medium in in vitro culture.

Dunaliella tertiolecta did not show any increase in respiration rate when supplied with glucose, glycerol, sucrose, L-alanine, acetate, pyruvate and succinate. This was in contrast to Chlorella pyrenoidosa, which, under identical conditions, showed significant increase when supplied with glucose or acetate but not with the other compounds. Production of 14CO2 from added 14C-glucose in D. tertiolecta was lower than the other 14C-labelled substrates: L-alinine, glycerol, succinate, but higher than 14C-sucrose addition. And it was also lower than C. pyrenoidosa experiments which was added 14C-glucose as a substrate. Light reduced amounts of labelled carbon dioxide from 14C-glucose or 14C-acetate and increased incorporation of 14C from the substrates to cell materials in either D. tertiolecta or C. pyrenoidosa. The contribution of 14C from 14C-glucose to 14CO2 in cell-free system of D. tertiolecta were much higher than in whole cell suspension. It was contrast to C. pyrenoidosa which were showed reduction of 14CO2 production in cell-free systems than whole cell suspensions. When cell-free systems of D. tertiolecta and C. pyrenoidosa were supplied with ATP, NAD, NADP or/and hexokinase, it was remarkably increased production of 14CO2 from the substrates than the control. It was concluded that the low ability of D. tertiolecta to metabolize glucose were caused by the impermeability of the cell membrane to glucose and were not due to deficiencies of enzyme systems concerning glucose metabolism. In the cell-free systems, it seemed to be more active pentose phosphate pathway than glycolytic pathway in D. tertiolecta.

The effect of fatty acid content in oily soil and conditions of washing on the removal of triglyceride have been studied. Cotton lawn was soiled with the four-component soil-tripalmitin, palmitic acid, dodecyl alcohol and dodecane-and washed in constant temperature waterbath shaker. The detergency was estimated by analysis of triglyceride labelled carbon-14 on fabrics before and after washing by means of liquid scintillation counting. It was shown that the detergency of triglyceride washed with the nonionic, nonylphenol poly (10)-ethylene oxide and soap was increased steadily with increasing temperature, whereas with the anionics Na-DBS and SLS, the detergency was rather decreased when the temperature was elevated above $40^{\circ}C$. To investigate the effects of free fatty acid content in soil on the removal of triglyceride, the fabrics were soiled altering palmitic acid content, and then washed. From the results, the detergency of triglyceride was developed with increasing free fatty acid content. With soils containing less than $30\%$ of free fatty acid, of the three detergents tested, the nonionic was by far the most effective soil removal. Soap was intermediate and the synthetic anionic was the poorest. With soil containing $45\%$ of free fatty acid, soap was the most effective soil removal. When NaOH was added to detergent solution. the detergency of triglyceride was improved without regard to detergents. The optimum alkalinity was obtained according to free fatty acid content. And the alkalinity changed to low NaOH concentration with increasing free fatty acid content. From the results mentioned above, it could be concluded that the major removal mechanisms of triglyceride containing oily soil were mesomorphic phase formation, solubilization and soap forma-tion when alkali was added in detergent solution.

In this paper, modified Kelvin's model has been used to analyze the orthotropic vibration frequencies of single walled carbon nanotubes with clamped-clamped and clamped-free boundary conditions. For this system the governing equation is developed with wave propagation approach. Armchair, zigzag and chiral structures are considered for the vibrational analysis to investigate the effect of different modes, in-plane rigidity and mass density per unit lateral area. Throughout the computations, on decreasing the length-to-diameter ratios, the frequencies of said structure increases. In addition, by increasing three different value of in-plane rigidity resulting frequencies also increase and frequencies decrease on increasing mass density per unit lateral area. The results generated using computer software MATLAB to furnish the evidence regarding applicability of present model and also verified by available published literature.

In order to separate the Freon-12 and air mixture$(CF_2Cl_2/Air=0.1/99.9 vol.%)$ by pressure swing adsorption (PSA), the breakthrough curve was experimentally observed in a fixed bed adsorption column. A single adsorber was packed with various adsorbents such as, the activated carbon(S-AC, W-AC) and the molecular sieve(MS-5A, MS-13X). The order of appearance of breakthrough curve is MS-5A > MS-13X > W-AC > S-AC. The activated carbon was found to be more effective adsorbent for separating Freon-12 from the mixture than the molecular sieve was. From the experimental data obtained by the separation of Freon-12 gas out of the air stream in the steady-state PSA process cycle, whose size is the same one of column used for the breakthrough curve observation, it has been confirmed that Freon-rich gas could be obtained from the purge step of PSA and Freon-free air could be obtained from the adsorption step of PSA cycle.

Heme oxygenase (HO)-1 is an inducible enzyme that catalyzes the first and rate-limiting step in the oxidative degradation of free heme into ferrous iron, carbon monoxide (CO), and biliverdin (BV), the latter being subsequently converted into bilirubin (BR). HO-1, once expressed during inflammation, forms high concentrations of its enzymatic by-products that can influence various biological events, and this expression is proven to be associated with the resolution of inflammation. The degradation of heme by HO-1 itself, the signaling actions of CO, the antioxidant properties of BV/BR, and the sequestration of ferrous iron by ferritin all concertedly contribute to the anti-inflammatory effects of HO-1. This review focuses on the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of HO-1 actions and its roles in inflammatory diseases.

In this study, we carried out a structural analysis for determining the stresses acting on the tempered glass of a freely falling cellular phone using ANSYS 13.0, commercial finite element code. We designed a phone heavier than any contemporary cellular phone and performed finite element analysis using the falling speed at a height of 104 cm, which is equal to of the average leg length of Koreans. By determining the maximum stress acting on the phone's tempered glass and frame, we identified the location of large deformation. Furthermore, we evaluated the maximum/minimum equivalent stress and deformation of the reinforced glass and frame as functions of time.
