For efficient micro scale syntheses of Rose $Bengal-^{131}I$, $Hippuran-^{131}I$, and $H.S.A.-^{131}I$, the dependence of labelling yields on pH, on salt contents, and on the volume of buffer solution in the reaction mixtures as well as the reaction apparatus were studied. pH of 5.6 was optimum for preparation of both Rose $Bengal-_{131}I$ and Hippuran $-^{13}I$ but pH of 8.5 was optimum for preparation of $H.S.A.-^{131}I$. Salt in the reaction mixtures hindered drastically the formation of $Hippuran-^{131}I$ but it slightly increased the labelling yield of H.S.A.. The compactly closed reaction vessels were effective for preparations of both Rose $Bengal-^{131}I$and $Hippuran-^{131}I$ in small volume. Thereupon, the labelling procedures were modified to bring about higher labelling yields and better reproducibilities. By these newly established procedures, the labelling yields of Rose $Bengal-^{131}I$ and $Hippuran-^{131}I$ could be increased even with the home-produced sodium $iodide-^{131}I$ solution containing reducing agent.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of plant growth regulators on the growth and development of pot 'Pinto Rose' and 'Pinto Scarlet' geraniums. Plant height was increased by $GA_3$ treatments in both 'Pinto Rose' and 'Pinto Scarlet' geranium. However, the number of branches was not affected by $GA_3$ and daminozide treatments. The combined treatments of $GA_3$ and daminozide delayed the days to first flowering in 'Pinto Scarlet' geranium. Also, in 'Pinto Rose', $GA_3$ or the combination of $GA_3$ and daminozide treatments delayed the first flowering time. 'Pinto Scarlet' geranium was more sensitive to growth regulator treatments than 'Pinto Rose'. The number of flower stalks and branches were increased by uniconazole in 'Pinto Scarlet', while the flower stalk length and canopy diameter were severely decreased by uniconazole treatments in both cultivars. The days to first flowering tended to be delayed by all growth retardant treatments in geranium.

If the frequency of a particular class is excessively higher than the frequency of other classes in the classification problem, data imbalance problems occur, which make machine learning distorted. Corporate bankruptcy prediction often suffers from data imbalance problems since the ratio of insolvent companies is generally very low, whereas the ratio of solvent companies is very high. To mitigate these problems, it is required to apply a proper sampling technique. Until now, oversampling techniques which adjust the class distribution of a data set by sampling minor class with replacement have popularly been used. However, they are a risk of overfitting. Under this background, this study proposes ROSE(Random Over Sampling Examples) technique which is proposed by Menardi and Torelli in 2014 for the effective corporate bankruptcy prediction. The ROSE technique creates new learning samples by synthesizing the samples for learning, so it leads to better prediction accuracy of the classifiers while avoiding the risk of overfitting. Specifically, our study proposes to combine the ROSE method with SVM(support vector machine), which is known as the best binary classifier. We applied the proposed method to a real-world bankruptcy prediction case of a Korean major bank, and compared its performance with other sampling techniques. Experimental results showed that ROSE contributed to the improvement of the prediction accuracy of SVM in bankruptcy prediction compared to other techniques, with statistical significance. These results shed a light on the fact that ROSE can be a good alternative for resolving data imbalance problems of the prediction problems in social science area other than bankruptcy prediction.

This study was conducted in cut rose cultivation field in Goyang to evaluate pesticide exposure of farmers and the relationship between the exposure and work environment/method for cut rose farmers. Dermal exposure was assessed with patch (thin chromatography layer paper), cotton glove by body parts during mixing and spraying works in which pyrethroid, organophosphate, carbamate pesticide were used in 4 cut rose greenhouses located in Goyang province, checking characteristics of environment/working method at the same time. Body parts assessed were as follows ; glove : hand, patch : head, neck(front/back), chest, back, shoulder(right/left), upperarm(right/left), forearm(right/left), thigh(right/left), shin(right/left). Pesticides were analyzed using gas chromatography(NPD/FID) after extracting with ethyl acetate. Exposure amount differed according to pesticide type. But after standardizing with total net weight of pesticide sprayed, there were no significant difference among pesticides. There were significant difference in exposure amount among body parts(especially exposure amount of thigh, shin were more than the others), which means exposure happen not by pesticide dispersion in air but by contact with cut rose(leaf, branch) indirectly. Walking forward during spraying made farmers more exposed than waling backward, these results means contacts with leaves/branches made exposure happen in cut rose greenhouse also. As a result, pesticide exposure in cut rose greenhouse was related with contact of leaf/branch which pesticide remained in, which made exposure pattern (especially exposure amount) differ by body parts

The enhancement of the solar energy conversion efficiency into the electrical energy by the dye sensitization with a photoelectrochemical cell was studied. The magnitude of the rose bengal sensitized photocurrent containing the supersensitizer, thiourea was five times greater than that in the absence of thiourea. It was observed, however, that the long time span of irradiation causes the decrease in the photocurrent. Spectroscopic analysis of the dye solution showed that the dye molecule was photobleached and the insoluble aggregate which settles down in the solution, was formed as a result of the possible photocatalytic reaction and the disappearance of dye from the solution was the cause of the decreased photocurrent in the sensitization run.

A leaf spot of cotton rose(Hibiscus mutabilis) occurred severely in the flower beds of cotton rose around Uiryeong-gun, Gyeongnam Province in Korea. The causal fungus was identified as Corynespora cassiicola on the basis of cultural and morphological characteristics of the fungus. The fungus grew well on potato dextrose agar and the colony color was gray to brown. Conidia were solitary or catenate, obclavate to cylindrical in shape, and pale olivaceous brown or brown in color. They had 420 pseudosepta, and measured $35.2{\sim}173.6{\times}8.8{\sim}19.9{\mu}m$. Conidia germinated as a bipolar type. Conidiophores were pale to mid brown in color, and measured $74.2{\sim}275.6{\times}3.8{\sim}10.8{\mu}m$. Optimal temperature for mycelial growth was $30^{\circ}C$. The fungal isolate grown on PDA showed strong pathogenicity to cotton rose plant. This is the first report on the corynespora leaf spot of cotton rose(Hibiscus mutabilis) caused by Corynespora cassiicola in Korea.

To elucidate the decay of the rose bengal (RB) sensitized and thiourea (TU) supersensitized photocurrent, spectroscopic analyses of the dye solution were performed. Absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic analyses of sensitizing solution before and after irradiation enabled to conform the new mechanism of the photocatalytic dimerization between RB and TU. And it was also found that the geometrical arrangement of the transition dipole moment is oblique and the angle between the dipoles is $124^{\circ}$ in the dimer of dye molecules.

Fluorimetric and absorption spectroscopic studies were performed to elucidate the photocurrent decay with time in the conversion process of solar energy into electrical energy using a photoelectrochemical cell containing rose bengal as a sensitizer, and allylthiourea as a supersensitizer. Spectra of dye solution before and after irradiation revealed a new photocatalytic dimerization reaction between sensitizer and supersensitizer. It was also found that the geometrical arrangement of the transition dipoles is oblique in the dimer of dye molecules.

The effects of rose flower extracts on the growth of CHO cells were examined. Rose flower extracts were prepared by solvent extraction with hexane, ethylacetate and ether from five domestic rose cultivar, Rosa hybrida L. cv. Mihyang, Noeul, Redqueen, Whitelady and Pinklady, respectively. The effects of rose flower extracts on the growth of CHO cells were measured using MTT colormeteric assay and compared with control. Extracts of rose flowers showed stimulative effect or inhibitory effect on the growth of CHO cells depending on the kinds of solvent and concentration of extracts. Ether extracts of rose flower showed a more effective stimulative effect on the growth of CHO cells at the concentration of 5 ${\mu}g{\cdot}ml^{-1}$. These results suggest that rose flower has the simulating activity on the growth of CHO cells and a potential as new functional food source.

Typical rose flowers, 'Red Corvette (red)', 'Nobless (pink)', 'Golden Metal (yellow)', and 'Rose Yumi (white)', were used as experimental materials to examine flower color changes as affected by pressing method and light treatment for four weeks and eight weeks by 2,000 lux fluorescent light at a 16 hours daylength. Pressing materials in silicagel mat resulted in the least change after pressing and light treatment for all kinds. On the contrary, an electric pressing device caused color to change to brown. Flower colors deteriorated the most by an electric pressing device made in Korea for pink rose; an electric pressing device made in Japan for white rose; and paper sheet made in Korea for red rose. The sequence of degree in severity of color change after pressing was pink, yellow, and white roses. Light treatment brought about the most extreme color change in yellow 'Nobless' rose, while other three cultivars were rather stable in change of color.
