In the study, we investigated the effect of Taurine-F^TM, which is a commercially available fishery nutritional supplements complex, on anti-hepatotoxicity stressed with thioacetamide (TAA) and innate immune responses in olive flounder. To investigate the change in liver toxicity, firstly, TAA (30 ppm/100 g of fish) was intraperitoneally (i.p.) administered 12 hr after the intramuscular (i.m.) injection of Taurine-F^TM (0.02 ml/100 g of fish)(Taurine/TAA). Secondly, Taurine-F^TM was i.m. injected 24 hr after the administration of TAA (TAA/Taurine). Finally, TAA was administered simultaneously with Taurine-F^TM (TAA+Taurine). All blood samples were collected 24 hr after injection. GOT level in group Taurine/TAA appeared similar to the control, whereas group TAA/Taurine and TAA+Taurine showed significantly increased (p<0.05) levels compared to the control. In GPT level, group Taurine/TAA and TAA/Taurine showed elevated levels compared to the control, whereas no significant difference was observed between group TAA+Taurine and the control. Serum ACH₅₀ activity was significantly (p<0.05) augmented 24 hr after Taurine-F^TM injection compared to the control group, whereas no significant increase was observed 48 hr after Taurine-F^TM injection. On the other hand, serum lysozyme activity elevated in an acute stressed condition appeared significantly down-regulated 24 and 48 hr after Taurine-F^TM injection compared to the control. In conclusion, i.m. injected Taurine-F^TM augmented flounder serum complement activity and decreased a possible handling stress resulting in reducing a serum lysozyme activity and recovering hepatotoxicity. Thus, it is assumed that i.m. injection of Taurine-F^TM mixed with antibiotics or available vaccines could be utilized as an anti-hepatotoxic recipe in fish culture industry.

The large particles of suspended matter in raw water can be removed by allowing them to settle out in a presedimentation basin. But there are smaller particles in almost all surface water and some groundwater that will not settle out within a reasonable time without some help to accelerate the process, In the coagulation and flocculation processes, nonsettleable solids are converted into large and heavier settleable solids by physical-chemical changes broght about by adding and mixing coagulant chemicals into the raw water. The object of this research was to improve corrective injection method for low dissolution liquid in the water treatment plant. A sort of chemical feed equipment are diaphram pump, flow control in combined magnetic flowmeter md control valve, roto dipper wheel system and tube pump. Particularly low dissolution liquid (Calcium Hydroxide) put in a bit by feed equipment, tube pump is very useful method for corrective injection method in the water treatment plant.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of doxapram after succinylcholine treatment. Succinylcholine was administered intravenously at a dose rate of 0.07 mg per kg of body weight and then ten minutes after the injection of succinylcholine doxapram was administered intravenously at a dose rate of 2 mg per kg of body weight. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Recovery time in dog given doxapram after succinylcholine treatment was shortened comparing with control group. 2. The changes in respiratory rate revealed a maximal increase immediately after the injection of doxapram. Thereafter respiratory rate gradually decreased, and revealed normal levels 20 minutes after the injection of doxapram. 3. The changes in heart rate revealed a maximal increase immediately after the injection of doxapram. Thereafter heart rate gradually decreased, but remained above the levels of control group. 4. Although arrhysthmias were observed after treatment of succinylcholine, these were disappeared after doxapram treatment. And there was no another change on electrocardiograms.

An approach to the treatment of post-operative pain by the injection of bupivacaine into the pleural space through an intrapleural cathter has been studied. Among 24 thoracotomy patients, bupivacaine was injected only to experimental group[ 12 patients ] when the patient was able to head up for oneself during recovery from anesthesia. The pain and ROM[ range of motion ] scores, respiration rate, PaCO2 level of both experimental and control group were measured at the time of head-up and 30 and 120 minutes thereafter.The scores of pain and ROM of experimental group were significantly[ P value < 0.05 ] decreased in 30 minutes and 120 minutes after bupivacaine injection compared with those of control group but respiration rate and PaCO2 level were not changed significantly. With this result, we can suggest that intrapleural injection of bupivacaine is useful for pain relief following thoracotomy.

Generally fuel injection system using solenoid have some problems between control signal and mechanical movement like as time lag. Main purpose of the present study is to help the design optimization of GDSI for real engine application. We have adopted two different solenoid driving circuit, namely saturation and pick-hold type and have investigated experimentally the current, needle force, needle opening duration and injection quantity. The pick-hold type driving circuit surpassed a saturation type in the response time and pression control of injection quantity. Accordingly, Using characterization data of operating factors such as time constant, driving force and so on, can be evaluated and adjusted to obtain an optimum injector performance.

This paper introduces the automatic fine Bituminous Coal injection lance position control method using flame image process. The fine Coal injection lance is used to supply additional heat into the furnace in Mill plant. It injects fine coal into high pressured air flow and produces very heated and high pressured flame. For the such high temperature and pressure, the fine coal injection lance effects not only efficiency of burner but also furnace abrasion. To keep efficient combustion status and to avoid the abrasion, in this paper, the flame is monitored by computer image process. This paper proposes the flame image process method and lance position control according to calculated result for flame image process.

The control of the fuel to be introduced into the combustion chamber under idling and low-load conditions is known to be a problem in Diesel engines, owing to the relatively small fraction of the full-load fuel needed under light loads. Thus, particular attention should be paid to the behavior of the injector with reference to short injection events. This work presents the results of an experimental campaign carried out with two different types of common rail injectors, a standard injector and a modified one. The latter, coming from a simple modification realized in a standard injector, exhibits linear behavior between injected fuel and solenoid energizing time in the field of short injections. A direct comparison of the two injection behaviors suggests a possible way to better control short or pilot injections.

River facilities and port structures require a regular inspection and diagnosis due to obsolescence. Currently, most river facilities are undergoing indirect inspection and diagnosis by divers. The underwater inspections are not feasible due to safety issues of divers and restrictions on working hours and environment. To overcome these issues, it is intended to conduct inspections of river facilities using underwater drones. In this research, an underwater ROV (Remote Operated Vehicle) has been developed, which is a kind of drone with propellers. As a key device of this research, an injection device has been attached to the underwater drone to conduct an operation test, a stable operation test of an underwater drone, and a test of attached sensors. The river facility inspection can be carried out optimally using the hovering control of the drone and injection systems. With the developed ROV system, hovering test and injection test have been performed to verify the feasibility of this development.

This research seeks a basis for developing new anti-inflammatory medicine by investigating Cornus Walteri extract for its anti-inflammatory effects. After the injection of LPS in to rats with Cornus Walteri extract, its anti-inflammatory effects were compared among the treatment groups. The plasma concentration of IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ peaked at 5h after LPS injection, and the values of the Cornus Walteri extract groups were lower than those of the control group. In the increment of concentration of these cytokines at 2h and 5h after LPS injection, the Cornus Walteri groups were lower than that of control group. The plasma concentration of IL-10 peaked at 5h after LPS injection, and the values of the Cornus Walteri extract groups were higher than those of the control group. In the increment of cytokines concentration at 2h and 5h after LPS injection, the Cornus Walteri groups were higher than that of control group. Liver cytokines measurement was done at 5h after LPS injection. The concentration of liver IL-$1{\beta}$ and IL-6 in the Cornus Walteri groups was lower than that of the control group. The concentrations of liver TNF-${\alpha}$, and IL-10 showed no significant differences among all the treatment groups. In the studies of lipopolysaccharide-exposed Raw 264.7 cells, the concentration of IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ in the lipopolysaccharide-exposed cells groups was higher than that of control group (normal group). However, in lipopolysaccharide-exposed cells groups, they showed lower values than those of control group and these values showed a tendency to decrease in the Cornus Walteri groups. The concentration of IL-10 in the lipopolysaccharide-exposed cells groups was higher than that of control group (normal group), and among the lipopolysaccharide-exposed cells groups, all Cornus Walteri extract groups showed higher values than single lipopolysaccharide-exposed cells groups. This studies have shown that in vitro and in vivo Cornus Walteri extracts are significantly more sensitive to inflammatory cytokines and LPS induced lethality. We conclude that the Cornus Walteri extracts have an functional material for inflammatory activities.

A crank angle-based engine control system has been developed for use as an engine research tool to provide precise control of the fuel injection(timing and duration) and ignition(timing and dwell) in real-time. The engine event information is provided by the engine shaft encoder, and the engine control system uses this information to generate spark and injector control signals for relevant cylinders. Eight different engine types and four different rotary encoder resolutions can be accommodated by this system. Also this system allows a user to individually control the ignition and fuel injection for each cylinder in a simple manner such as through a keyboard or in a real-time operation from a closed-loop control program.
