Dielectric and piezoelectric porperties of pseudoternary xPb(Al2/3W1/3)O3-(1-x)Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (x=1~10mol%) ceramic system have been investigated as a function of the amount of PAW[Pb(Al2/3W1/3)O3] and sintered from 110$0^{\circ}C$ to 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 1hr. As the amount of PAW increases, the c/a of tetragonal structure decreases. The grain size was reduced with increasing the amount of PAW addition. However, the density, dielectric constant and electromechanical coupling factor(kp) exhibited a maximum value at the amount of 5mol% PAW addition.

Catechol type siderophore different from 2, 3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) was produced from Acinetobacter sp. B-W grown in medium containing L-glutamic acid as both carbon and nitrogen sole sources at $28^{\circ}C$. Optimal concentration of glutamic acid for siderophore production was 3% and production of siderophore was decreased above 3% glutamic acid. In previous report, siderophore, 2, 3-DHB was produced from strain B-W grown in medium containing glucose as carbon source and glutamic acid as nitrogen source. Rf value of siderophore produced from strain B-W grown in medium glutamic acid as both carbon and nitrogen sole sources at $28^{\circ}C$ was 0.32, while 2, 3-DHB was 0.84 in butanol-acetic acid-water (12:3:5) as developing solvent. Antioxidative activity of 2, 3-DHB was not detected in that siderophore produced from glutamic acid. Catechol nature of siderophore was detected by Arnow test. Although in iron-limited media optimal cell growth was identified at $36^{\circ}C$, significant quantities of siderophore were produced only at $28^{\circ}C$. Biosynthesis of siderophore was strongly inhibited by growth at $36^{\circ}C$. Production of siderophore was completely inhibited by $10{\mu}M\;FeCl_3$.

This study was designed to compare the lipid components between wild and cultured snakehead, Channa argus. The lipid components of cultured snakehead were analyzed and compared with that of wild snakehead. In both edible portion and viscera, the lipid content in cultured, snakehead was higher than that in wild one. In the fatty acid composition of neutral lipid in edible portion, percentages of $C_{14:0},\;C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{20:5},\;C_{22:5}\;and\;C_{22:6}$ in cultured snakehead were higher than those in wild one, while percentages of $C_{18:0},\;C_{16:1},\;C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{20:4}\;and\;C_{22:4}$ lower. In the case of phospholipid in edible portion, percentages of $C_{16:0},\;C_{18:1}\;and\;C_{22:6}$ in cultured snakehead were higher than those in wild one, while percentages of $C_{16:1},\;C_{18:2},\;C_{18:3},\;C_{20:4},\;C_{22:4}\;and\;C_{22:5}$ lower. The unsaturation (TUFA/TSFA) and w3 highly unsaturated fatty acid content (w3 HUFA) of neutral lipid in cultured snakehead were higher than those in wild one, while those of phospholipid lower. The essential fatty acid contents (TEFA) of both neutral and phospholipids in wild snakehead were higher than those in cultured one. In the ratio (A/B) of fatty- acid content (A) in cultured snakehead to that (B) in diet, the A/B ratios of $C_{18:2\;w6},\;C_{18:3\;w3},\;C_{20:5\;w3}\;and\;C_{22:6\;w3}$ were 0.3 to 2.5 times, and it is considered to be related to the biosynthesis of polyenoic acids and growth rate of cultured snakehead.

Human endogenous retroviral long terminal repeats (LTRs) have been found to be coexpressed with sequences of genes located nearby. It has been suggested that the LTR elements have contributed to the structural change or genetic variation of human genome connected to various diseases. The HERV-W family has been identified in the cerebrospinal fluids and brains of individuals with schizophrenia. Using a cDNA library derived from a human brain, the HERV-W LTR elements were examined and five new LTR elements were identified. These elements were examined using a YAC clone panel from the Xq21.3 region linked to psychosis that was replicated on the Y chromosome after the separation of the chimpanzee and human lineages. Fourteen elements of the HERV-W LTR were identified in that region. Those LTR elements showed a high degree of sequence similarity ($91.8-99.5\%$) with previously reported HERV-W LTR. A phylogenetic tree obtained from the neighbor-joining method revealed that new HERV-W LTR elements were closely related to the AXt000960, AF072504, and AF072506 from the GenBank database. The data indicates that several copy numbers of the HERV-W LTR elements exist on the Xq21.3 region and are also expressed in the human brain. These LTR elements need to be further investigated as potential leads to neuropsychiatric diseases.

Three different white cast irons alloyed with Cr, V, Mo and W were prepared in order to study their transformation behavior of matrix structures in heat-treated conditions. The specimens were produced using a 15kg-capacity high frequency induction furnace. Melts were super-heated to $1600^{\circ}C$, and poured at $1550^{\circ}C$ into Y-block pepset molds. Three combinations of the alloying elements were selected so as to obtain the different types of carbides and matrix structures : 3%C-10%Cr-5%Mo-5%W(alloy No. 1), 3%C-10%V-5%Mo-5%W(alloy No. 2) and 3%C-17%Cr-3%V(alloy No. 3). The heat-treatments were conducted as follows: frist of all, as-cast specimens were homogenized at $950^{\circ}C$ for 5h under the vacuum atmosphere. Then, they were austenitized at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2h and followed by air-hardening in air. The air-hardened specimens were tempered at $300^{\circ}C$ for 3h. The observation of morphology of the matrix structures was carried out in the states of as-cast(AS), air-hardened(AHF) and tempered(AHFT). The matrix structures of each alloy were almost fully pearlitic in the as-cast state but it was transformed to martensite, tempered martensite and retained austenite by the heat-treatments such as air-hardening and tempering.

In this study, the compressive strength of cement stabilized soil was predicted using the electrical resistivity measurement. The effects of the water to cement (w/c) ratio and recovered Carbon Black (rCB) contents were examined. A series of electrical resistivity and compressive strength tests were conducted on two types of stabilized soil after 28 days of curing. Multiple nonlinear regression (MNLR) analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between the compressive strength and the electrical resistivity in terms of the rCB, C_u (uniformity coefficient), and w/c ratio. The results showed that the w/c ratio and C_u have a strong influence on the compressive strength and electrical resistivity of the cement stabilized soil compared to the rCB content. The use of a small amount of rCB led to a decrease in the void space in the specimen and was attributed to the increase strength and decrease electrical resistivity. A high w/c ratio also induced a low electrical resistivity and compressive strength, whereas 3% rCB in the cemented soil provided the optimum strength for all w/c ratios. Finally, a prediction equation for the compressive strength using the electrical resistivity measurement was suggested based on its reliability, time effectiveness, non-destructiveness, and cost-effectiveness.

On heating amorphous Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3 ceramics, glass transition occurred at 35$0^{\circ}C$, crystallization at 394~420, 485~550 and 540~571$^{\circ}C$ (depending on the heating rates of 2.5~8$0^{\circ}C$/min), phase transformation at 680 and 73$0^{\circ}C$, and melting at 935$^{\circ}C$. A curve-fitting computer program was made using FORTRAN, based on a kinetic equation. Reconstructed thermograms (using the program) turned out to be very close to the measured DSC results for all the heating rates, with average deviation of only 4% at maximum.

The effects of carbide and matrix structures on the abrasion wear resistance of multi-component white cast irons with 3.0 mass%C have been studied in this paper. Four different heats were poured in order to obtain the specimens with different combinations of the carbide structures: a basic iron(3.0 mass%C-5.0 mass%Cr-5.0 mass%V-5.0 mass% Mo-12.5mass%W)for M$_{6}$C and M$_{7}$C$_{3}$ carbides, and a Cr free iron(3.0 mass%C-5.0 mass%V-2.5mass%Mo-12.5 mass%W) for MC and M6C carbides. A conventional high Cr free free iron(3.0 mass%C-5.0 mass%V-2.5 mass%Mo-12.5 mass%W) for MC and M6C carbides. A conventional high Cr white cast iron was also poured to compare its wear resistance with those of the multi-component white cast irons. In the as-cast condition, the range of abrasive wear rate(Rw=mg/min) was from 4.15 to 5.98 . The lowest Rw, which means the highest wear resistance, was obtained in the basic iron with nodular MC, lamellar M$_{2}$C and cellular M$_{7}$C$_{3}$ carbides. On the other hand, the Rw of the high Cr white cast iron ranked between the basic iron and the Mo and W free iron. In each alloy, the Rw of air hardened or tempered specimen was lower than that of the as-cast one because of the change of matrix structures by the heat treatments. The Rw of the hear treated speci-mens increased in the order Mo and W free iron, basic iron, Cr free iron, high Cr iron, and V free iron.n.n.n.

Type and three-dimensional morphology of carbides precipitated in the X(X= 1.70, 1.92, 2.21, 2.50, 2.86)%C-5%Cr-5%V-5%Mo-5%W-5%Co multi-component white cast iron were investigated using an optical microscope and SEM. The types of carbides precipitated were MC, M$_2$C and M$_{7}$C$_{3}$. Morphology of the MC carbide took three forms, that it petal-like, nodular and coral-like. MC carbide seemed to change its morphology from petal-like through nodular, and finally to coral-like with an increase in carbon content. M7C carbide was classified into lamellar and plate-like type. The lamellar M$_2$C arbide precipitated in the iron with low molybdenum and tungsten contents, and higher contents of both elements in the iron were needed to form the plate-like M$_2$C carbide. The morphology of M$_{7}$C$_{3}$ was rod-like similar to that observed in high chromium white cast iron. However, cobalt does not affect the type and morphology of precipitated carbides.des.
