This study analyzed the changes in the concentrations of the pollutants of constructed treatment wetlands which come from the discharge water of a sewage treatment plant. According to the results of budgets in constructed wetlands, the net production of the organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus were 368 kgC/month, 306 kgN/month and -49 kgP/month, respectively. The high particle form of pollutants are mostly removed due to settlement and absorption when passing through wetlands, but because a low processing efficiency for pollutants was shown when sewage treatment plant wastewater flows in, there is a need for a water management system that can reduce the organic matter load through monitoring. The low removal efficiency of constructed wetlands were caused by both structural and operational problems. Therefore, to enable to play a role as a reduction facility of pollutants, an appropriate design and operation manuals for constructed wetlands is urgently needed.

To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed and produced a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. Human umbilical cord origin pepsin treated type I atelocollagen was used as the structural matrix, by which sintered or non-sintered carbonate apatite was encapsulated to form an inorganic-organic composite. With cross linking atelocollagen by UV ray irradiation, the resistance to both compressive and tensile strength was increased. Collagen degradation by the collagenase induced collagenolysis was also decreased.

The electrostatic layer-by-layer technique provides a convenient way to control the construction of ultrathin films at nano-scale ranges and can be easily obtained. It can be also applicable to fiber substrate with dye compounds. We have fabricated multilayer dye films using diazonium resin and three couplers, which are prepared by self-assembly approach. This method is based on layer-by-layer deposition using electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Beside, the diazo coupling reaction proceeded to form azo dye layer on the PET fibers the same time. The corresponding results of the multilayer films have been discussed on the level of color strength (K/S).

Bioconcentration factors (BCF) in fish of organic nonelectrolytes are well correlated by a linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) of the form : log BCF= -0.95 + 4.74 $V_I/100 - 4.39{\beta} + 0.88{\alpha}$ where $V_I$ is the intrinsic solute molecular volume and ${\beta}$ and ${\alpha}$ are the solvatochromic parameters that measure hydrogen bond acceptor basicity and donor acidity of the compound. The LSER model can not only correlate the property with an accuracy comparable to molecular connectivity model but also provide a quantitative informationon on the nature and relative strength of solute-target system interactions affecting the property of interest. Such an information can hardly be obtained from molecular connectivity model.

A layered perovskite oxide, $RbLa_2Ti_2NbO_{10}$, was prepared and investigated for proton exchange and intercalation behaviors. Its protonated form, $Hla_2Ti_2NbO_{10}$, exhibits the Bronsted acidity and reacts with organic amines. Polyoxonuclear cation, 4Al_{13}$, was then introduced into the interlayer by refluxing octylamine-intercalated compound with an $Al_{13}$ pillaring solution. These layered oxides were characterized by X-ray diffractometer, thermogravimeter, FT-infrared spectrometer and elemental analyzer. It is observed that the polyoxonuclear cation-pillared material exhibits a bilayer structure and is thermally more stable than organic counterpart at higher temperatures. The surface area of the pillared material annealed at 400 ℃ was the value of 25.1 m²/g.

There have been numerous efforts to provide legal information to the general public easily. Most of the existing legal information services are based on keyword-oriented legal ontology. However, this keyword-oriented ontology construction has a sense of disparity from the relationship between the laws used together in actual cases. To solve this problem, it is necessary to study which laws are actually used together in various judicial precedents. However, this is difficult to implement with the existing methods used in computer science or law. In our study, we analyzed this by using topological data analysis, which has recently attracted attention very promisingly in the field of data analysis. In this paper, we applied the the Mapper algorithm, which is one of the topological data analysis techniques, to visualize the relationships that laws form organically in actual precedents.

The peculiarities of the polyvinylpyrrolydone (PVP) interaction with transition metal ions of the first row in solution were studied. It was shown that PVP macromolecules due to their swelling conformation in organic solvents form the stable metal complexes. Metal ions were bond with oxygen and nitrogen atoms of PVP lactam rings. In water solution every metal ion interacts with one or two oxygen atoms out of 10-12 monomer units of the polymer. The additional contraction of PVP macromolecule coils in water have been found out by dissolving of the polymer metal complexes (PMC) synthesized in organic media. Toxicity, blood forming and immune stimulating activity and pharmaco-kinetic too of obtained polymers and their metal completes have been investigated. The factors and effects that responsible fur changing of PMC physical-chemical and biological properties have been estimated.

A conjugated polymer is the next-generation emerging semiconductor material that can be applied in various fields, from organic electronics to biomedical applications. However, its low solubility in an aqueous medium has made the use of toxic organic solvents inevitable, thereby leading to formulation of conjugated polymers in the form of waterborne nanoparticles. This review paper discusses two principles of nanoparticle formation and representative methods for synthesizing conjugated polymer nanoparticles.

We investigated the effects of a long term application of soil amendments such as lime, silicate, compost, or combinations of these materials on the contents of Cu and Zn in paddy soil and brown rice. The results obtained from a sequential extraction of Cu and Zn in paddy soils and brown rice, using $H_2O$, $KNO_3$, $Na_2$-EDTA and $HNO_3$ and showed that the most of Cu and Zn were NaOH-extractable (organically bound form) and $HNO_3$-extractable (sulfide and residual form). Cu contents of NaOH and EDTA extractable increased with the long term application of compost while the contents of Zn extracted by $KNO_3$ was decreased even though $HNO_3$ extractable-Zn was prominent chemical form in paddy soils. The percentage and contents of Zn, extracted by $KNO_3$ for each combination treatment of soil amendments, was decreased but the contents of Cu was not affected. The content of NaOH extractable-Cu was proportionally increased with increase in organic matter content irrespective of the extractants used in this experiment. The contents of Zn and exchangeable K were also increased with increase in organic matter content. However, we could not find any relationship between the extractable forms of Cu and Zn, and CEC, OM. while increase in CEC, contents of cations, and organic matter decreased the content of Cu in brown rice.

The inactivation efficiency of Campylobacter jejuni were assessed in vitro and in vivo using confocal laser microscopy and flow cytometry. C. jejuni cells were inactivated with $1\%$ (w/v) trisodium phosphate (TSP) and the live cells and inactivated cells were distinguished by staining with LIVE/DEAD BacLight Bacteria Viability fluorescent probe. After treatment of TSP for 5 min, most of C. jejuni cells turned to coccoid form from original spiral shape. C. jejuni cells lost total cell viability in the absence of organic nutrients but did not lost total cell viability in the presence of organic nutrients. In vivo test, C. jejuni cells turned to viable but non-culturable (VBNC) form after TSP treatment and remained alive on chicken skin. C. jejuni cells attached on chicken meat would transform to coccoid form by sanitizer treatment, but could possibly be alive by the benefits of organic nutrients present in chicken meat.
