  • Chicken anemia virus (CAV) has been recognized as an immunosuppressive agent and plays role as an etiological agent of multifactorial diseases in chicken. In this study, we investigated distribution of CAV antibody by ELISA and the virus gene by PCR in poultry farms in Jeongeup, Jeonbuk province. In the test using ELISA kit, 41 (95.3%) of 43 flocks and 88.6% of the individual chickens were positive, respectively. By PCR, 90.9% of the broiler breeders and 75.0% of White-semi breeders were found positive, respectively. All hatchery was negative by PCR. Of the clinical cases from 49 poultry flocks, 87.5% of flocks and 54.7% for each samples were found positive by ELISA, respectively. By PCR test, 21 (42.9%) of 49 flocks were positive. Major clinical signs of the infected flocks were growth retardation, femoral subcutaneous bleeding, depression, limping, and continuing selection. The genetic analysis of separate N genes of CAV showed highly homologous each other. The nucleotide sequence of field isolates had homology ranged from 99.9% to 97.5% with Chinese strains, and 99.9% to 99.6% with Japanese strain. Phylogenetic analysis based on the N gene of CAV isolates showed the closely relation with Chinese strains. The results of this survey could be used as basic data for development of vaccine.

  • Let $\{A_u,\;u=0,\;1,\;2,\;{\cdots}\}$ be a sequence of coefficient matrices such that ${\sum}_{u=0}^{\infty}{\parallel}A_u{\parallel}<{\infty}$ and ${\sum}_{u=0}^{\infty}\;A_u{\neq}O_{m{\times}m}$, where for any $m{\times}m(m{\geq}1)$, matrix $A=(a_{ij})$, ${\parallel}A{\parallel}={\sum}_{i=1}^m{\sum}_{j=1}^m{\mid}a_{ij}{\mid}$ and $O_{m{\times}m}$ denotes the $m{\times}m$ zero matrix. In this paper, a functional central limit theorem is derived for a stationary m-dimensional linear process ${\mathbb{X}}_t$ of the form ${\mathbb{X}_t}={\sum}_{u=0}^{\infty}A_u{\mathbb{Z}_{t-u}}$, where $\{\mathbb{Z}_t,\;t=0,\;{\pm}1,\;{\pm}2,\;{\cdots}\}$ is a stationary sequence of linearly positive quadrant dependent m-dimensional random vectors with $E({\mathbb{Z}_t})={{\mathbb{O}}$ and $E{\parallel}{\mathbb{Z}_t}{\parallel}^2<{\infty}$.

  • In this paper, we implement sequence-based anomaly detection sensor using SOM and HMM, and analyze what is important information in system call and how a threshold is decided. The new filtering and reduction rules of SOM reduces the input size of HMM. This gives real-time processing to HMM-based anomaly detection sensor. Also, we introduced an anomaly count into the sensor. Due to lessened sensibility, a user easily understand easily the detection information and false-positive was decreased. And the active coordination of the threshold value makes the detection sensor adapt according to the system condition.

  • The high penetration level of inverter-based distributed generation (DG) power plants is challenging the low-voltage ride-through requirements, especially under unbalanced voltage sags. Recently, a flexible injection of both positive- (PS) and negative-sequence (NS) reactive currents has been suggested for the next generation of grid codes. This can enhance the ancillary services for voltage support at the point of common coupling (PCC). In light of this, considering distant grid faults that occur in a mainly inductive grid, this paper proposes a complete voltage support control scheme for the interface inverters of medium or high-rated DG power plants. The first contribution is the development of a reactive current reference generator combining PS and NS, with a feature to increase the PS voltage and simultaneously decrease the NS voltage, to mitigate voltage imbalance. The second contribution is the design of a voltage support control loop with two flexible PCC voltage set points, which can ensure continuous operation within the limits required in grid codes. In addition, a current saturation strategy is also considered for deep voltage sags to avoid overcurrent protection. Finally, simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

  • A soil metagenomic library was constructed using an E. coli-fosmid cloning system with environmental DNAs extracted from Kwangreung forest topsoil. We targeted the genes involved in the biosynthesis of bacterial polyketides. Initially, a total of 36 clone pools (10,800 clones) were explored by the PCR-based method using the metagenomic DNAs from each pool and a degenerate primer set, which has been designed based on the highly conserved regions among ketoacyl synthase (KS) domains in actinomycete type I polyketide synthases (PKS Is). Six clone pools were tentatively selected as positive and further examined through a hybridization-based method for selecting a fosmid clone containing PKS I genes. Colony hybridization was performed against fosmid clones from the 6 positive pools, and finally 4 clones were picked out and confirmed to contain the conserved DNA fragment of KS domains. In this study, we present a simple and feasible sorting method for a desired clone from metagenomic libraries.

  • Gram-positive antagonistic bacilli were isolated from agricultural soils for possible use in biocontrol of plant pathogenic fungi, Fusarium oxysporum, Rhizoctonia solani, and/or Pythium ultimum. Among the 65 antagonistic Gram-positive soil isolates, 22 strains were identified as Bacillus species by 16S rDNA sequence analyses. Four strains, including DF14, especially exhibited multiple antagonistic properties against the three damping-off fungi. Genotypic properties of the Bacillus isolates were characterized by rapid molecular fingerprinting methods using repetitive extragenic palindromic-PCR (REP-PCR), ribosomal intergenic spacer-length polymorphisms (RIS-LP), 16S rDNA PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP), and strain-specific PCR assays. The results indicated that the REP-PCR method was more valuable than the RIS-LP and 16S rDNA PCR-RFLP analyses as a rapid and reliable approach for bacilli typing and identification. The use of strain-specific primers designed based on 16S rDNA sequence comparisons enabled it to be possible to selectively detect a strain, DF14, which is being used as a biocontrol agent against damping-off fungi.

  • In this paper, a robust and fast grid synchronization method of a three-phase power converter is proposed. The amplitude and phase information of grid voltages are essential for power converters to be properly connected into the utility. The phase-lock-loop in synchronous reference frame has been widely adopted for the three-phase converter system since it shows a satisfactory performance under balanced grid voltages. However, power converters often operate under abnormal grid conditions, i.e. unbalanced by grid faults and frequency variations, and thus a proper active and reactive power control cannot be guaranteed. The proposed method adopts a second order generalized integrator in synchronous reference frame to detect positive sequence components under unbalanced grid voltages. The proposed method has a fast and robust performance due to its higher gain and frequency adaptive capability. Simulation and experimental results show the verification of the proposed synchronization algorithm and the effectiveness to detect positive sequence voltage.

  • The three-phase synchronous reference frame phase-locked loop (SRF-PLL) is widely used for synchronization applications in power systems. In this paper, a new control strategy for three-phase grid-connected LCL inverters without a PLL is presented. According to the new strategy, a current reference can be generated by using the instantaneous power control scheme and the proposed positive-sequence voltage detector. Through theoretical analysis, it is indicated that a high-quality grid current can be produced by introducing the new control strategy. In addition, a kind of independent control for reactive power can be achieved under unbalanced and distorted grid conditions. Finally, the excellent performance of the proposed control strategy is validated by means of simulation and experimental results.

  • The output voltage of an off-grid inverter is influenced by load current, and the voltage harmonics especially the 5th and 7th are increased with nonlinear loads. In this paper, to attenuate the output voltage harmonics of off-grid inverters with nonlinear loads nearby, a load current feedforward is proposed. It is introduced to a voltage control loop based on the Positive and Negative Sequence Harmonic Regulator (PNSHR) compensation to modify the output impedance at selective frequencies. The parameters of the PNSHR are revised with the output impedance of the off-grid inverter, which minimizes the output impedance of the off-grid inverter. Experimental results verify the proposed method, showing that the output voltage harmonics caused by nonlinear loads can be effectively suppressed.
