Excised cotyledons and embryo axises of zygotic embryos of Rhus vemicifera were cultured on Murashige and Skoog(MS) medium with various concentrations of 2,4-D. About 3-5% of explants produced callus. Embryogenic callus was preferentially induced from basal parts of embryo axis of zygotic embryos seeds when they were cultured without removal of seed coats. Somatic embryos were developed from embryogenic callus in growth regulator-free medium after 2-3 subcultures on medium with 1.0mg/L 2,4-D and these embryos were matured to cotyledonary stage. Plantlets with well-developed shoots and roots from embryos were obtained on $\frac{1}{4}$MS medium with GA$_{3}$. After acclimatization of plantlets on artificial soil, they were exposed to soil pots.

The relative composition of $Cu(InGa)Se_2$ solar cells is one of the most important measurement issues. However, quantitative analysis of multi-component alloy films is difficult by surface analysis methods due to severe matrix effect. In this study, quantitative depth profiling analysis of CIGS films was investigated by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The compositions were measured by SIMS using the alloy reference relative sensitivity factors derived from the certified compositions and the total counting numbers of each element. The compositions measured by SIMS were linearly proportional to those by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) using isotope dilution method. In this study, the quantification measured by ICP-MS method is compared with the composition calculated by SIMS depth profiles with AR-RSFs obtained from the reference. The SIMS depth profile of CIGS thin films according to the manufacturing condition was converted into compositional depth profile.

Radiation-induced hydrocarbons and 2-alkylcyclobutanones are formed from the fatty acids of irradiated fats. Peanuts were irradiated with a dose of 0.1∼10 kGy. The method consists of the extraction of fat from peanuts, separation of hydrocarbons and 2-alkylcyclobutanones with florisil column chromatography and identification of hydrocarbons by the GC/MS method and 2-alkylcyclobutanones by GC/MS/selected ion monitoring (SIM). Concentrations of hydrocarbons and 2-alkylcyclobutanones were linearly increased with the dose levels of radiation. The major hydrocarbons in the irradiated peanut samples were 8-heptadecene and 1,7-hexadecadiene from oleic acid and 6,9-heptadecadiene and 1,7,10-hexadecatriene from linoleic acid. 2-(5'-Tetradecenyl)cyclobutanone, one of 2-alkylcyclobutanones, was the highest amount in the irradiated peanuts. Radiation-induced hydrocarbons in the peanuts were detected at doses of 0.5 kGy and over, and radation-induced 2-alkylcyclobutanones were detected at doses of 1 kGy and over. These compounds were not confirmed in unirradiate peanuts.

In order to detect climate changes using satellite imagery, the GCOS (Global Climate Observing System) defines requirements such as spatio-temporal resolution, stability by the time change, and uncertainty. Due to limitation of GK-2A sensor performance, the level-2 products can not satisfy the requirement, especially for spatial resolution. In this paper, we found the optimal pan-sharpening algorithm for GK-2A products. The six pan-sharpening methods included in CS (Component Substitution), MRA (Multi-Resolution Analysis), VO (Variational Optimization), and DL (Deep Learning) were used. In the case of DL, the synthesis property based method was used to generate training dataset. The process of synthesis property is that pan-sharpening model is applied with Pan (Panchromatic) and MS (Multispectral) images with reduced spatial resolution, and fused image is compared with the original MS image. In the synthesis property based method, fused image with desire level for user can be produced only when the geometric characteristics between the PAN with reduced spatial resolution and MS image are similar. However, since the dissimilarity exists, RD (Random Down-sampling) was additionally used as a way to minimize it. Among the pan-sharpening methods, PSGAN was applied with RD (PSGAN_RD). The fused images are qualitatively and quantitatively validated with consistency property and the synthesis property. As validation result, the GSA algorithm performs well in the evaluation index representing spatial characteristics. In the case of spectral characteristics, the PSGAN_RD has the best accuracy with the original MS image. Therefore, in consideration of spatial and spectral characteristics of fused image, we found that PSGAN_RD is suitable for GK-2A products.

Helicobacter pylori is a causative organism of various gastrointestinal diseases, including chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer, or gastric adenocarcinoma. Pathogenic factors, such as cytotoxin-associated protein A (CagA) and vacuolating cytotoxic protein A (VacA), play a role. This study analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively the effects of zerumbone on the changes in the protein expression levels of various H. pylori proteins, including CagA and VacA. Approximately 200 significant proteins were screened for the H. pylori 60190 (VacA positive / CagA positive; Eastern type) strain, and proteomic analysis was performed on 13 protein molecules that were clinically significant. After two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE), $ImageMaster^{TM}$ 2-DE Platinum software was used for quantitative measurements of protein spots. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) were used for protein identification. After intensive analysis of the proteins that showed significant changes, a reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was performed as required to verify the results. In this study, the significance of zerumbone as a therapeutic agent for H. pylori infection was examined by screening a new pharmacological activity mechanism of zerumbone.

Intensity modulated photovoltage spectroscopy (IMVS) analysis of organic solar cells (OSCs) with a bulk-heterojunction (BHJ) film composed of P3HT and $PC_{61}BM$ was performed. The dynamic response of charge recombination by the post-annealing approach in $P3HT/PC_{61}BM$ BHJ solar cells characterized by IMVS demonstrated that post-annealing reduced the recombination of electron carriers in the device. The recombination times of $P3HT/PC_{61}BM$ BHJ solar cells post-annealed at room temperature, 80, 120, and $140^{\circ}C$ were 0.009, 0.020, 0.024, and 0.030 ms, respectively, at a short-circuit current of 0.18 mA. The results indicated that the IMVS analysis can be effectively used as powerful.

This paper described the relatively sensitive and simultaneous analytical method for 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCDP, $C_3H_7ClO_2$, MW. 110) as well as 1,3-dichloropropan-2-ol (1,3-DCP, $C_3H_6Cl_2O$, MW. 128) in various foods. Food samples were homogenized in 5M NaCl solution, mixed with aluminum oxide and eluted with dichloromethane. The extracted chloropropanols were concentrated by rotary evaporator and $N_2$ blow serially were derivatized with HFBA (Heptafluorobutyric anhydride, $C_8F_{14}O_3$, MW. 410) and were determined by GC/MS using isotope dilution method. The characteristic molecular ions at m/z 253, 275, 289, 291, and 453 for HFBA derivatives of 3-MCPD (MW. 502) and 110, 275, and 277 for HFBA derivatives of 1,3-DCP (MW. 325) were chosen in selected ion mode. The method validation data showed sufficiently good properties of LOD (0.003 mg/kg), LOQ (0.010 mg/kg), linearity ($R^2{\geq}0.999$ at 0.010~1.000 mg/kg), and recovery rate (${\approx}97%$). The levels of chloropropanols in soy sauce, sauces, processed meat products, fishery products, and seasonings (n=56/157) determined by the presented method were 0.0~0.3 mg/kg.

This study was performed to develop Sulgidduk prepared with different levels (0, 3, 6, 9 and 12%) of defatted mealworm powder and to evaluate the characteristics of this Sulgidduk. We performed an assessment of color values, mechanical properties, general compositions and branched amino acids of Sulgidduk prepared with different levels of defatted mealworm powder. For the color values, the lightness(L) was decreased with increased amount of defatted mealworm powder, while the redness(a) and yellowness(b) were relatively increased. For the mechanical properties, the hardness and gumminess were significantly increased according to the increased amounts of defatted mealworm powder, but the chewiness, springiness and cohesiveness showed significant differences. For the sensory evaluation, the overall quality of Sulgidduk prepared with 6% defatted mealworm powder (MS-6) was higher as compared with that of the other Sulgidduk samples. For the general composition, the moisture and crude ash contents of MS-6 did not shown differences, while the crude protein was higher than those of the control, and the carbohydrate content of the control was higher than that of the MS-6. The contents of branched amino acids (valine, leucine and isoleucine) of MS-6 were higher than those of the control. Therefore, it was concluded that MS-6 could be a protein rich food as a good source of branched amino acids such valine, leucine and isoleucine.

Placenta transfer study in non-human primate (NHP) is one of the crucial components in the assessment of developmental toxicity because of the similarity between NHP and humans. To establish the method to determine placenta transfer in non-human primate, toxicokinetics of valproic acid (VPA), a drug used to treat epilepsy in pregnant women, were determined in pregnant cynomolgus monkeys. After mating, pregnancy-proven females were daily administered with VPA at dose levels of 0, 20, 60 and 180 mg/kg by oral route during the organogenesis period from gestation day (GD) 20 to 50. Concentrations of VPA and its metabolite, 4-ene-VPA, in maternal plasma on GDs 20 and 50, and concentrations of VPA and 4-ene-VPA in placenta, amniotic fluid and fetus on GD 50 were analyzed using LC/MS/MS. Following single oral administration of VPA to pregnant monkeys, concentrations of VPA and 4-ene-VPA were generally quantifiable in the plasma from all treatment groups up to 4-24 hours post-dose, demonstrating that VPA was absorbed and the monkeys were systemically exposed to VPA and 4-ene-VPA. After repeated administration of VPA to the monkeys, VPA was detected in amniotic fluid, placenta and fetus from all treatment groups, demonstrating that VPA was transferred via placenta and the fetus was exposed to VPA, and the exposures were increased with increasing dose. Concentrations of 4-ene-VPA in amniotic fluid and fetus were below the limit of quantification, but small amount of 4-ene-VPA was detected in placenta. In conclusion, pregnant monkeys were exposed to VPA and 4-ene-VPA after oral administration of VPA at dose levels of 20, 60 and 180 mg/kg during the organogenesis period. VPA was transferred via placenta and the fetus was exposed to VPA with dose-dependent exposure. The metabolite, 4-ene VPA, was not detected in both amniotic fluid and fetus, but small amount of 4-ene-VPA was detected in placenta. These results demonstrated that proper procedures to investigate placenta transfer in NHP, such as mating and diagnosis of pregnancy via examining gestational sac with ultrasonography, collection of amniotic fluid, placenta and fetus after Caesarean section followed by adequate bioanalysis and toxicokinetic analysis, were established in this study using cynomolugus monkeys.
