In order to improve a complicated Cheongju manufacturing process, saccharification process with gelatinized rice flour was employed during a Cheongju fermentation. High sugar content without unsaccharified residue appeared to impede the yeast growth and fermentation. To solve this problem, addition of zeolite to the saccharifying solution containing 20% (w/v) sugar and fed-batch system were employed. These adjustments resulted in a increase of yeast viability and 40% time-saving alterations of fermentation. The Cheongju, having 18% (v/v) of ethanol content and fresh and rich flavor, could be made in 12 days. Yeast cells recovered from the fermentation precipitates could be reused up to four times without any adverse effect on cell viability, alcohol production, and flavor of the product. The complicated conventional brewing process of Cheongju can thus be simplified effectively.

Experiments were conducted to estimate optimal potassium strength in the nutrient solution for ‘Nokgwang’and‘Kwari’green pepper seedlings cultured in small plug-cell trays. Plant height, stem diameter, and leaf area increased with increasing K concentration, with greater effect on ‘Kwari’ than ‘Nokgwang’. Total dry weight increased by increasing potassium strength.‘Kwari’had heavier dry weight than ‘Nokgwang’Chlorophyll content differed by cultivars and potassium strength. The highest chlorophyll content was obtained at 2.0 strength potassium in‘Nokgwang’, but not in‘Kwari’Net photosynthesis was greater in plants fertilized with 1.5 strength potassium for‘Nokgwang’and 2.0 strength potassium for ‘Kwari’than the other treatments.

Objectives: The usage of medicinal plants as natural antimicrobial agents has grown in many fields including dental medicine. The aim of this in vitro study was three-fold: (i) to determine the chemical compositions of the Ferula gummosa essential oil (FGEO), (ii) to compare the antimicrobial efficacy of the oil with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) and chlorhexidine (CHX), (iii) to assess the toxic behavior of FGEO in different concentrations compared to 5% NaOCl and 0.2% CHX. Materials and Methods: Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used to determine the chemical compositions of the oil. The disk diffusion method and a broth micro-dilution susceptibility assay were exploited to assess the antimicrobial efficacy against Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mitis, and Candida albicans. The cytocompatibility of the FGEO was assessed on L929 fibroblasts, and compared to that of NaOCl and CHX. Results: Twenty-seven constituents were recognized in FGEO. The major component of the oil was ${\beta}$-pinene (51.83%). All three irrigants significantly inhibited the growth of all examined microorganisms compared to the negative control group. FGEO at $50{\mu}g/mL$ was effective in lower concentration against Enterococcus faecalis than 5% NaOCl and 0.2% CHX, and was also more potent than 0.2% CHX against Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus. FGEO was a cytocompatible solution, and had significantly lower toxicity compared to 5% NaOCl and 0.2% CHX. Conclusions: FGEO showed a promising biological potency as a root canal disinfectant. More investigations are required on the effectiveness of this oil on intracanal bacterial biofilms.

Plants have evolved physiological, biochemical and metabolic mechanisms to increase their survival under the adverse conditions. This present study has been performed to select salt-tolerant rice mutant lines through in vivo and in vitro mutagenesis with gamma-rays. For the selection of the salt-tolerant rice mutants, we conducted three times of selection procedure using 1,500 gamma ray mutant lines resulted from an embryo culture of the original rice cv. Dongan (wild-type, WT): first, selection in the a nutrient solution with 171 mM NaCl; second, selection under in vitro condition with 171 mM NaCl; and third, selection in a reclaimed saline land. Based on a growth comparison of the entries, out of the mutant lines, two putative 2 salt tolerant (ST) rice mutant lines, ST-87 and ST-301, were finally selected. The survival rate of the WT, ST-87 and ST-301 were 36.6%, 60% and 66.3% after 7 days in 171 mM NaCl treatment, respectively. The WT and two salt tolerant mutant lines were used to analyze their genetic variations. A total of 21 EcoRI and Msel primer combinations were used to analyze the genetic relationship of among the two salt-tolerant lines and the WT using the ABI3130 capillary electrophoresis system. In the AFLP analysis, a total of 1469 bands were produced by the 21 primer combinations, and 700 (47.6%) of them were identified as having polymorphism. The genetic similarity coefficients were ranged from 0.52 between the ST-87 and WT to 0.24 between the ST-301 and the WT. These rice mutant lines will be used as a control plot for physiological analysis and genetic research on salt tolerance.

Globally road transport networks are subjected to continuous levels of stress from increasing loading and environmental effects. As the most popular mean of transport in the UK the condition of this civil infrastructure is a key indicator of economic growth and productivity. Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems can provide a valuable insight to the true condition of our aging infrastructure. In particular, monitoring of the displacement of a bridge structure under live loading can provide an accurate descriptor of bridge condition. In the past B-WIM systems have been used to collect traffic data and hence provide an indicator of bridge condition, however the use of such systems can be restricted by bridge type, assess issues and cost limitations. This research provides a non-contact low cost AI based solution for vehicle classification and associated bridge displacement using computer vision methods. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been adapted to develop the QUBYOLO vehicle classification method from recorded traffic images. This vehicle classification was then accurately related to the corresponding bridge response obtained under live loading using non-contact methods. The successful identification of multiple vehicle types during field testing has shown that QUBYOLO is suitable for the fine-grained vehicle classification required to identify applied load to a bridge structure. The process of displacement analysis and vehicle classification for the purposes of load identification which was used in this research adds to the body of knowledge on the monitoring of existing bridge structures, particularly long span bridges, and establishes the significant potential of computer vision and Deep Learning to provide dependable results on the real response of our infrastructure to existing and potential increased loading.

This study was performed to develop a useful method for substrate pH adjustment in bottle cultivation of Grifola frondosa. Four types of organic acid solution-citric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, and succinic acid-were added at 0.5% to 3.0% (w/v) into the substrate. The pH after the organic acid treatments ranged from 3.8 to 4.8 for the mycelial growth of G. frondosa after sterilization. Supplementation with succinic acid at 0.5% resulted in a shorter cultivation period and higher consistent yields compared to other organic acid treatments. These results indicate that the technique we developed is beneficial for higher production of G. frondosa using bottle cultivation.
