All of the crucian carp, Carassius auratus and 50% of common carp. Cyprinus carpio examined in this study were infected with the leeches, Limnotrachelobdella sinensis. Especially, the infection of C. carpio with L. sinensis was the first report in Korea. The gill of C. auratus showed increased hydrophic degeneration of epithelial cell in the filament, blood congestion, hyperplasia of epithelial cell in the filament and lamellae. In the SEM observation, gill filament was transformed to the cylinder form by the lamellae fusion. The lamellae surface showed degeneration, fragmentation of microridges. The extracellular cartilaginous matrix of the filaments was exposed by the collapse of epidermal layer. In the 18S rRNA analysis of L. sinensis, the relationships among these groups are not clear and not concord with their morphological classification.

This study aims to develop an all-fabric integrated smart jacket in order to create a temperature-regulating system based on a user experience design. For this research, previous research technologies of a textile switch interface and a temperature-regulating system were utilized and a unifying technology for the all-fabric integrated smart jacket was developed which can provide the appropriate temperature environments to the human body. A self-heating textile was applied at the areas of the back and hood in the final tested jacket, and an embroidery circuit was developed in the form of a rectangle in the back and in both ears of the hood, taking into account the pattern of the jacket part where it was be applied and the embroidery production method. The textile switch interface was designed in a three-layer structure: an embroidery circuit line in a conductive yarn, an interval material, and a conductive sensing material, and it was made to work with the input and output sensors through the multiple input method. After the all-fabric integrated smart jacket was produced according to the pattern, all of the textile band lines for transmission were gathered and connected with a miniature module for controlling temperature and then integrated into the inside of the left chest pocket of the jacket. After the users put on this jacket, they were asked to assess the wearing satisfaction. Most of them reported a very low level of irritation and discomfort and said that the jacket was as comfortable as everyday clothing.

The objective of this study was to generate transgenic mice expressing human resistin gene by using the tetraploidembryonic stem (ES) cell complementation method. Human resistin gene was amplified from human fetal liver cDNA library by PCR, cloned into $pCR^{(R)}$ 2.1 $TOPO^{(R)}$ vector and constructed in pCMV-Tag4C vector. Mammalian expression plasmid containing human resistin was transfected into D3-GL ES cells by Lipofectamine 2,000, and then after 10-12 days of transfection, the human resistin-expressing cells were selected with G418. In order to produce tetraploid embryos, blastomeres of diploid embryos at the two-cell stage were fused with two times of electric pulse using 60 V 30 $\mu$sec (fusion rate: 2,114/2,256, 93.5%) and cultured up to the blastocyst stage (development rate: 1,862/2,114, 94.6%). The selected 15-20 ES cells were injected into tetraploid blastocysts, and then transferred into the uteri of E 2.5 d pseudopregnant recipient mice. To investigate the gestation progress, two E 19.5 mused fetuses were recovered by Cesarean section of which one fetus was confirmed to contain human resistin gene by genomic DNA-PCR. Therefore, our findings demonstrate that tetraploid-ES mouse technology can be considered as a useful tool to produce transgenic mice for the rapid analysis of gene function in vivo.

This paper investigates the applicability of optical flow information for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) navigation under environments where global navigation satellite system (GNSS) is unavailable. Since the optical flow information is one of important measurements to estimate horizontal velocity and position, accuracy of the optical flow information must be guaranteed. So a navigation algorithm, which can estimate and cancel biases that the optical flow information may have, is suggested to improve the estimation performance. In order to apply and verify the proposed algorithm, an integrated simulation environment is built by designing a guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) system. Numerical simulations are implemented to analyze the navigation performance using this environment.

We present a low jitter frequency up-conversion detector based on quasi-phase matched sum frequency generation in a periodically poled $LiNbO_3$ waveguide for efficient single-photon detection at 1.5 ${\mu}m$ telecommunication wavelengths. The maximum detection efficiency and the noise count rate using the pump power of 300 mW and the pump wavelength of 974 nm are about 7% and 480 kHz, respectively. We also characterize the timing jitter of the frequency up-conversion detector by analyzing the time distribution of the detection outputs for photons generated through a picosecond pump pulsed spontaneous parametric downconversion. The minimum timing jitter was measured to be about 39.1 ps. Coincidence measurement with a narrow time window for pulsed up-conversion photons can eliminate the unwanted noise counts and maximize signal to noise ratio.

A nuclear power plant (NPP) piping is designed against low-frequency earthquakes. However, earthquakes that can occur at NPP sites in the eastern part of the United States, northern Europe, and Korea are high-frequency earthquakes. Therefore, this study conducts bi-directional shaking table tests on actual-scale NPP piping and studies the response characteristics of low- and high-frequency earthquake motions. Such response characteristics are analyzed by comparing several responses that occur in the piping. Also, based on the test results, a piping numerical analysis model is developed and validated. The piping seismic performance under high-frequency earthquakes is derived. Consequently, the high-frequency excitation caused a large amplification in the measured peak acceleration responses compared to the low-frequency excitation. Conversely, concerning relative displacements, strains, and normal stresses, low-frequency excitation responses were larger than high-frequency excitation responses. Main peak relative displacements and peak normal stresses were 60%-69% and 24%-49% smaller in the high-frequency earthquake response than the low-frequency earthquake response. This phenomenon was noticeable when the earthquake motion intensity was large. The piping numerical model simulated the main natural frequencies and relative displacement responses well. Finally, for the stress limit state, the seismic performance for high-frequency earthquakes was about 2.7 times greater than for low-frequency earthquakes.

Due to recent improvements in computer processing speed and image processing technology, researches are being actively carried out to combine information from a camera with existing GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) and dead reckoning. In this study, the mathematical model based on SPR (Single Photo Resection) is derived for image-based assistant algorithm for vehicle positioning. Simulation test is performed to analyze factors affecting SPR. In addition, GNSS/on-board vehicle sensor/image based positioning algorithm is developed by combining image-based positioning algorithm with existing positioning algorithm. The performance of the integrated algorithm is evaluated by the actual driving test and landmark's position data, which is required to perform SPR, based on simulation. The precision of the horizontal position error is 1.79m in the case of the existing positioning algorithm, and that of the integrated positioning algorithm is 0.12m at the points where SPR is performed. In future research, it is necessary to develop an optimized algorithm based on the actual landmark's position data.

The characteristics of crosslinking and physical properties in partially crosslinked waste high density polyethylene (HDPE) were studied by introducing reactive melt processing with perbutyl peroxide (PBP). It was found that impurities in waste HDPE affected the crosslinking kinetics. Decrease in density and heat of fusion were observed in partially crosslinked HDPE while its melt viscosity increased. It was explained that impurities in waste HDPE enhanced the crosslinking compared to pure HDPE As a result, dramatic mechanical property improvement was achieved in the waste HDPE by crosslinking reaction.
