  • The mammary gland tumor (MGT) is the most common neoplasia in intact female dogs. Of these, 50% are malignant and metastasis to the other sites are often occurred. Therefore, it is very important for decision of treatment plan and prognosis to differentiate benign tumor from malignancies. Calcification of MGT is a very important imaging finding. The purpose of this study was to investigate the radiological and computed tomographic images of the MGT and the morphology and distribution of calcifications in the MGT using the Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System classification. A total of 42 dogs with MGT were included in this study. The dogs were divided into two groups into benign and malignant groups based upon histologic or cytologic results. The appearance of calcification in the tumor on radiographs and CT images was analyzed for the HU value of pre- and post-contrast injection, margin, surface, and shape of the tumor and the lymph node abnormalities. On radiographs, the positive predictive value of malignant and benign tumors was 72.72 and 85.71%, respectively. On CT examinations, the positive predictive value of malignant and benign tumors was the same value of 83.33%. The maximum diameter of the tumor and the presence of abnormal lymph nodes on CT images showed a strong correlation with malignancies. Therefore, it is thought that radiographs and CT provide useful information for evaluating MGT in dogs.

  • Thermotoga neapolitana 유래 내열성 4-알파-글루칸전이효소(MgtA)가 산업적 응용성을 지닌 싸이클로아밀로스를 생산할 수 있는지를 검사하기 위하여 그 유전자를 클로닝하고 대장균에서 발현시켰다. MgtA는 HiTrap Q와 Sephacryl S-200 분배 크로마토그래피를 이용하여 순수한 형태로 정제되었으며, SDS-PAGE를 통하여 분자량이 약 52 kDa으로 아미노산서열로부터 계산된 분자량과 일치하였다. 효소활성의 최적 pH와 온도는 6.5와 $85^{\circ}C$였으며 알파1,4결합을 갖는 글루칸의 1,4결합을 효율적으로 가수분해함과 동시에 작은 크기의 올리고당을 말토덱스트린에 전이하는 전이활성을 가지고 있었다. 그러나 플루란, 글리코겐 및 1,4결합 이외의 다른 알파결합을 갖는 글루칸에는 활성을 나타내지 않았다. MgtA는 말토트리오스를 말토올리고당으로 전환할 수 있는 능력에서 그렇지 못한 Thermotoga maritima 의 효소와 구별할 수 있었으며, 반응 후 glucoamylase의 처리결과로부터 그 전이산물이 싸이클로아밀로스 대신에 긴 연쇄상의 말토올리고당을 생산하는 효소로 확인할 수 있었다.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effects of osmotic priming, liquid smoke (LS), sonication and modified drum priming treatments to improve the germination speed and uniformity of pepper seeds for high quality export seeds. Seeds were treated in 0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10% LS solution only or with 100mM $K_2SO_4$ solution for 6days at $15^{\circ}C$. Sonication treatment was performed for 5, 10, and 20 minutes at an intensity of 5.2, 10.4, 15.7, 21.0, 26.1kHz in water at $15^{\circ}C$. After sonication treatment, seeds were primed with water or 100mM $K_2SO_4$ for 4days. 40, 50 and 60% seed moisture content (SMC) of hydrated seeds were incubated for 84, 96 and 108h in a container with a relative humidity of 99% at 26rpm for a modified drum priming treatments. 0.5% LS treatment with water or 100mM $K_2SO_4$ priming showed significant effects with 71% GP (9.0days MGT) and 66% GP (7.4days MGT), respective, while untreated seeds resulted in only 61% GP and 10days MGT. The healthy seed % was increased by 24% by $K_2SO_4$ priming with LS treatment compared to untreated seeds. However, sonication treatment showed less germination or no difference compared to untreated seed, regardless of intensity and treatment time. The modified drum priming treatment (108h incubation after 50% SMC hydration) significantly improved the GP (on the $4^{th}$days after sowing), germination rate (GR), and MGT to 65%, $28%{\cdot}day^{-1}$, and 3.6days, whereas untreated seed resulted only 7% GP, $17%{\cdot}day^{-1}$ GR and 5.9days MGT. Thus, modified drum priming treatment effectively improved seed germination and is considered as an industrially promising treatment methods considering the shortening of the treatment period and environment-friendly aspects.

  • This paper describes the performance improvement of power control system of magnetron (MGT) for microwave oven. The MGT is used extensively in household microwave oven and industrial microwave heating devices, and is operated by 3.0[kV] $\∼$5.0[kV] dc high voltage. The proposed power supply is consisted of a bridge rectifier, step-up converter(SUC) and its controller, half bridge inverter(HBI) and its controller, and full wave double voltage rectifier(DVR). In the proposed system, a good power factor can be obtained by the SUC' switching method that the inductor current waveforms follows that of the rectified voltage, and a line input power can be controlled to a range of 17.5[$\%$] by duty ratio (DR) adjustment of the HBI.

  • As Decentralized Generation(DG) becomes more reliable and economically feasible, it is expected that a higher application of DG units would be interconnected to the existing grids. This new market penetration of DG technologies is linked to a large number of factors like technologies costs and performances, interconnection issues, safety, market regulations, environmental issues or grid connection constrains. Korea Electric Power Corporation (KEPCO) has researched performance characteristics of the 60k W class 1) basic start-up & shutdown operation analysis 2) interconnection test 3) MGT -absorption chiller-heater system in the local condition. Variations of heat recovery from exhaust gas has measured according to micro gas turbine output of 15, 30, 45, 60kW. From those results, the performance of the MGT-absorption chiller/heater system has been evaluated. The suggested strategy and experience for the evaluation of the distributed generation will be used for the introduction of other distributed generation technologies into the grid in the future.

  • An 11-year-old, toy poodle dog was presented with dermatologic lesions and mammary gland tumor (MGT) evaluation. A solitary, lobulated MGT (size $2.5{\times}3.5$ cm) was affecting the 5th left mammary gland. Firm, oval plaque skin lesions were present on the left dorsal carpal area. The skin lesions were alopecic and salivary staining. The dog had historical separation anxiety and excessive licking of skin lesions were observed. Based on the clinical and histopathologic examinations, MGT was diagnosed with mammary complex adenoma and the skin lesions were diagnosed with acral lick dermatitis. Behavior modification treatment using oral clomipramine was effective.

  • 마이크로 가스터빈의 높은 연료 다양성은 광범위한 범위의 적용처에 적용할 수 있도록 설계되었다. 최근에는 가스터빈 발전시스템의 연료로서, 유기성폐기물의 소화가스와 쓰레기 매립지로부터 발생되는 바이오 가스에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있다. 우리는 매립지 가스를 이용하여 마이크로 가스터빈 열병합 발전시스템의 성능특성 및 운전 특성에 대한 영향을 연구하고 있다. 메탄과 이산화탄소를 동시에 회수하는 공정을 개발하여 현장 실증 플랜트 규모로 시험을 수행하였으며, 유리온실에 농작물의 이산화탄소 고농도 집적을 목적으로 철-킬레이트 화합물을 기본으로 하는 액상촉매를 이용하여 매립지 가스내에 있는 불순물을 저렴한 비용으로 제거하고자 한다. Fe-EDTA(철-킬레이트)를 이용한 내부순환 다판식 기포탑 반응기에 의하여 농축정제와 이산화탄소 제거가 매립지 가스의 최적화 연료화를 추진하였다. 매립지가스의 유량은 0.207 $m^3$/min이고 5.5 kg/$cm^2$의 압력으로 공급되며 메탄농도 70%, 이산화탄소 27%로 공급되도록 농축반응기를 설계하였고 황화수소 99% 제거를 목표로 한다. 유리온실은 마이크로 가스터빈 배가스와 온수를 이용하여 대기중의 이산화탄소 농도에서 1500 ppm의 농도범위로 공급되도록 설계되었다.
