Radioisotope (Nuclear) battery using $^{63}Ni$ was prepared as beta cell. The electroplated $^{63}Ni$ on Ni foil is fabricated, and beta cell and photovoltaic hybrid battery was designed to use at both day and night in space project. A Ni-plating solution is prepared by dissolving metal particles including $^{62}Ni$ and $^{63}Ni$ from neutron irradiation of ($n,{\gamma}$). Electroplating solution of a chloride bath consists on nickel ions in HCl, $H_3BO_3$, and KOH. The deposition was carried out at current density of $10mA\;cm^{-2}$. The prepared beta source was attached on a PN junction and measured I-V properties. The power output at activity of 0.07 mCi and 0.45 mCi were 0.55 pW and 2.69 nW, respectively.

Biosynthesis of curdlan( ${\beta}$-1,3 glucan) was shown by fluorscence on cellufluor medium. The highest production of curdlan was produced when glucose was used as a carbon source and ($NH_4$)$_2$$SO_4$ was used as a nitrogen source. ${\beta}$ -form of curdlan was detected in the fingerprint region (890 $cm^{-1}$) by FT-IR spectrum and shown homogeneous ${\beta}$ -1,3 glucan by $^{13}C$ NMR spectrum ($C_1$-103 ppm, $C_2$-73.2 ppm, $C_3$-86.4 ppm, $C_4$-68.7 ppm, $C^{5}$-76.63 ppm, $C_{6}$-61.2 ppm). Transition of structure from triple helix coil form to random coil form was appeared at 0.1 ∼0.25 M NaOH concentration. It was shown that natural curdlan is a triple helix form in neutral but becomes weak in alkaline condition.

The purpose of this study was to explore the influence of credibility of health information (CHI) source and e health literacy (eHL) on health information orientation (HIO) of parents of hospitalized children. Convenience sampling method of 109 parent whose children were admitted in a children's hospital in D city was used. The hierarchial regression model with general characteristics and characteristics of children for step 1 and eHL and CHI for step 2 against HIO was statistically significant (F=8.22, p<.001). And this model could explain 40% of HIO ($R^2$=.40). Especially, eHL (${\beta}$=.54, p<.001) and CHI (${\beta}$=.21, p=.008), subjective health perception (${\beta}$=.19, p=.016), and age (${\beta}$=-0.15, p=.048) were identified the influencing factors on HIO. Based on these findings, to foster the HIO of parents of inpatient children, credible health information should be given to these population and a approach with eHL enhancement should be considered. And further research that is to explore the way to enhance the eHL should be carried out to suggest the practical application

Milk from dairy cows has long provided a high quality source of protein and selected micronutrients as calcuim to most populations. Recently, a relationship between disease risk and consumption of specific bovine ${\beta}$-casein fraction either A1 or A2 genetic variants has identified. Populations, which consume milk contain high containing high levels of ${\beta}$-casein A2 variants, have a lower incidence of cardiovascular disease and type 1 diabetes. Furthermore, consumption of milk with the A2 variants may be associated with less severe symptoms of autism and schizophrenia. The mechanism of action focuses on ${\beta}$-casein A1 and related forms preferentially that are able to produce a bioactive opioid peptide, ${\beta}$-casomorphin-7(${\beta}$-CM-7) during digestion. Infants may absorb ${\beta}$-CM-7 due to an immature gastrointestinal tract. Adult, on the other hand, appear to reap the biological activity locally on the intestinal brush boarder. ${\beta}$-CM-7 can potentially affect numerous opioid receptors in the nervous, endocrine, and immune system. Whether there is a definite health benefit to milk containing the A2 genetic variant is unknown and requires further investigation.

Metallic magnetic calorimeters (MMCs) are one of the most competitive low temperature detector (LTD) readout sensors. They have the advantages of high time resolution, no heat dissipation, and a wide range of operating temperature. We apply MMCs to our neutrinoless double beta decay ($0v{\beta}{\beta}$) search experiment. A $CaMoO_4$ crystal was employed as both a source of $0v{\beta}{\beta}$ and an energy absorber. The crystal was thermally connected to a MMC sensor. We set a simple thermal model for this detector and measured pulse shapes are compared with a numerical solution of the thermal model.

In this Study, we have attempted to determine the effects of dietary fructose polymers (fructan), high molecular-weight ${\beta}-(2,6)-linked$ levan, and low-molecular-weight ${\beta}-(2,1)-linked$ inulin, on two intestinal enzymes $({\beta}-glucuronidase\;and\;{\beta}-glucosidase)$. As a preliminary experiment, when intestinal microflora were cultured in anaerobic media harboring levan or its oligosaccharides, bacterial cell growth was observed in the levanoligosaccharide-supplemented media, but not in the levan-supplemented media, indicating that levan's size is important for the utilization by intestinal bacteria of levan as an energy Source. In our animal study, the intake of a levan-rich diet was determined to significantly attenuate the activity of the harmful enzyme $({\beta}-glucuronidase$, but d id not affect the activity of ${\beta}-glucosidase$.

In this experiments the operation of the Geiger-Mueller tube is investigated by measuring the relationship between the count rate and the applied voltages, The length and slope of the plateau are characteristic of the tube. In our experiments, the average plateau length of the tube is extend for about 100 [V] and the slope 0.017 [%/V]. For normal counting purposes the working voltage is usually selected at value about 50 volts larger than the threshold of the plateau. To investigate the absorption of beta particles by matter. We performed an absorption experiments by using the Al absorber and Sr-90 ($0.125{\mu}Ci$) beta source. The maximum range of the beta radiation can be determined by visual extrapolation of the curve after subtraction of the constant background-rate and the maximum beta energy 2.09 [MeV] can be calculated from the range using an experimental relation.

Five flavonoids were isolated from the heartwoods of Maackia fauriei. On the basis of spectroscopic evidences, the structure of these compounds were established as (-)maa ckiain(3-hydroxy-8,9-methylenedioxypterocarpan), ononin(4'-methoxyisoflavone- 7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside), wistin(4',6-dimethoxyisoflavone-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside), daidzin(4'-hydroxyisoflavone-7-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside) and 2'-methoxy-4'- hydroxyisoflavone-6-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside. In these compounds, 2'-methoxy-4'-hydroxyisoflavone-6-O-${\beta}$-D-glucoside was for the first time isolated from the plant source.
