Cryopreservation is a widely-used efficient means of long-term sperm preservation. However, unlike other types of semen, cryopreserved boar semen has reduced fertility and the efforts continue to optimize post-thawing sperm recovery. In this study, we evaluated the effects of various washing solutions (Hulsen solution, lab-made DPBS and commercial DPBS) on post-thawing porcine sperm kinematics (CASA system), viability (SYBR-14/PI) and acrosome integrity (PSA/FITC). We also examined the effect of washing-centrifugation on frozen-thawed semen kinematics. The results indicate that type of washing solution and post-thawing centrifugation alters parameters linked to sperm quality (total motility, progressive motility, viability and acrosome integrity). Significantly higher (p < 0.05) motility and progressive motility were obtained when cryopreserved semen was processed with Hulsen solution. The post-thaw percentage of live and intact acrosomal sperm was significantly higher in group 1 (Hulsen solution) as compared to other groups. Following thawing-centrifugation, the results showed significantly higher motility and progressive motility in group 1 than other groups. However, the latter two DPBS groups did not differ statistically. Taken together, Frozen-thawed spermatozoa motility, acrosome integrity and viability can be affected by the type of washing solution used. Moreover, centrifugation of frozen-thawed semen has an unfavorable effect on total motility and progressive motility.

Purpose: We use the centrifugation of refrigeration state in separation of blood serum, Anti-ds-DNA, Vitamin $B_{12}$/Folate and GAD-Ab assay. However, Cortisol urine and 25-Hydroxyvitamin $D_3$ ($25OHD_3$) are conducted centrifuge at room temperature. This is troublesome that change centrifugation temperature into room temperature due to using of most assays at cold temperature. Therefore when using centrifuge after extraction of Cortisol urine and $25OHD_3$, we conducted researches on effect of the centrifugation temperature in assay results. Materials and Methods: In Cortisol urine, add dichloromethane 1.0 mL in urine $500\;{\mu}L$, mix for 15 minutes, and then centrifuge for 8 minutes at 2600rpm. In $25OHD_3$ add acetonitrile 0.5 mL in serum $200\;{\mu}L$, and then centrifuge for 8 minutes at 2600rpm. Those experiments were conducted centrifuge at room temperature and $4^{\circ}C$. And experiments conducted immediately after centrifugation at $4^{\circ}C$ and standing for 20 minutes after centrifugation $4^{\circ}C$. Results: In Cortisol urine, room temperature result in 1.93, 2.18, 2.43, 9.45, 14.2 (${\mu}g/dL$). Experiments of performing immediately after centrifuge at $4^{\circ}C$ result in 1.8, 2.0, 2.3, 8.1, 13.7 (${\mu}g/dL$). Experiments of performing after 20 minutes result in 2.1, 2.1, 2.7, 9.95, 14.35 (${\mu}g/dL$). On the other hand, the $25OHD_3$ tests conducted at room temperature result in 7.13, 26.6, 35.8, 48.2, 74.8 (ng/dL). Experiments were conducted immediately by pipetting after $4^{\circ}C$ centrifugation result in 7.53, 30.9, 40.3, 61.5, 89.1 (ng/dL) as results are higher than experiments at room temperature. The experiments that conducted centrifuge at $4^{\circ}C$ and then left at room temperature for 20 minutes result in 7.40, 32.4, 41.3, 51.6, 85.6 (ng/dL). Conclusions: Experiments were conducted by using centrifuge at $4^{\circ}C$ are higher or lower than room temperature. The differences between results of standing for 20 minutes after centrifuge at $4^{\circ}C$ and those of centrifuge at room temperature are less than conducting immediately. It is concerned that experiments conducted immediately after centrifuge at $4^{\circ}C$ are incorrect, because tubes become dim due to temperature differences between $4^{\circ}C$ and room temperature. Therefore, it is desirable to centrifuge at room temperature as manual and we should pipet promptly without stopping.

본 연구는, 양극 벗김 전압전류법 (Anodic stripping voltammetry: ASV)을 이용하여, 전처리 과정 (pre-treatment procedure)에 따른 인체 타액내 납 (Pb)과 카드뮴 (Cd)의 검출농도의 차이를 비교하기 위하여 시행되었다. 납과 카드뮴에 노출되지 않을 것으로 추정되는 남녀 10명을 대상으로, 비자극성 전타액을 채취한 후, 각 시료를 6개의 시편으로 나누어서 원심분리를 시행한 후 3가지 전처리를 하는 경우와 원심분리를 시행하지 않고 3가지 전처리를 하는 경우로 구분하였다. 타액의 전처리법은 simple dilution by electrolyte, simple dilution by HCl, acid digestion by nitric acid 등 3가지를 각각 시행했으며, ASV법으로 타액 내 납과 카드뮴의 농도를 분석하였다. 실험결과는 다음과 같다. 1. '타액 시료의 전처리 방법에 따른 타액내 납의 평균 농도'를 살펴보면, 원심분리 시행군이 원심분리 미시행군에 비하여 평균농도가 유의성 있게 높았다. 2. 타액내 납의 검출에 있어서, 단순히 전해질로 희석만 한 경우보다 염산이나 질산으로 전처리를 시행한 경우에 유의성 있게 더 높은 농도를 나타내었다. 3. '타액 시료의 전처리 방법에 따른 타액내 카드뮴의 평균 농도'를 살펴보면, 원심분리 시행군이 원심분리 미시행군에 비하여 평균농도가 유의성 있게 높았다. 4. 타액내 카드뮴의 검출에 있어서, 단순히 전해질로 희석만 한 경우보다 염산이나 질산으로 전처리를 시행한 경우가 더 높은 농도를 나타내었으나, 유의한 차이는 아니었다.

High purity silicon can be obtained from Al-Si alloys by a combination of solvent refining and centrifugation. Silicon purification by crystallization of silicon from an Al-Si alloy melt was carried out using 2N and 4N purity aluminum and 2N purity silicon as raw materials. The effect of the purity of raw materials on the final silicon ingot purity by centrifugation was investigated for an Al-50 wt% Si alloy. Alloys were melted using an electrical resistance furnace, and then poured into a centrifuging apparatus. A silicon lump like foam was obtained after centrifugation and was leached by an acid in order to get pure silicon flakes. Then silicon flakes were melted to make a silicon ingot using an induction furnace. The purities of the silicon flakes and silicon ingot were enhanced significantly compared to those of the raw materials of silicon and aluminum. The silicon ingot made of 4N aluminum and 2N silicon showed the lowest impurities.

Cell recovery from high cell density broths of Alcaligenes eutrophus by pretreatment with aluminum-based coagulants such as aluminum sulfate, polyaluminum hydrooxide chloride silicate (PACS), and polyaluminum hydrooxide chloride (Hi-PAX) was carried out. Cells coagulated with coagulants could be successfully recovered above 95-99% by centrifugation or filtration. The optimum initial pH of fermentation broths for cell recovery was in the range of 10 to 12. Optimum coagulants dosage for cell recovery increased with increasing of cell concentrations (21-160 g/L). The optimum coagulant dosages to recover cells with more than 95% cell recovery by centrifugation for the cell concentrations ranged 21-160 g/L were as follows: aluminum sulfate, 416-1708 mg Al/L; PACS, 211-826 mg Al/L; Hi-PAX, 320-960 mg Al/L. At optimum conditions for the coagulation of cells, centrifugal forces for 95% of cell recovery were dependent on the cell concentration. The centrifugal forces at 82 g/L and 160 g/L of cell concentration were only 45${\times}$g and 1600${\times}$g, respectively.

56.2% of Aldrich HA was recovered from water by XAD-8 and AGMP-50 procedure. With this method, 0.58mg/l of HA was determined in the water collected from irrigation reservoir near Tae Dok Science Town. For the removal of ash from Aldrich HA, centrifugation was simple, but as effective as dialysis. Neither centrifugation nor dialysis removed Na at all. Only with XAD-8 and AGMP-50 procedure, Na and ash were completely removed.

Centrifugation is a method to create functionally graded materials (FGM) with a thermosetting matrix. In this study the movement of short carbon fibers in an epoxy resin during the centrifugation process was modeled to determine the fiber distribution in the final product. For this purpose a form factor K was introduced to modify a set of equations that was previously shown to be valid for the motion of spheres. It was shown that the results of the simulation were in good agreement with the experimental data, when an empirical K factor of four was chosen.

The purity of mtDNAs isolated from Archicitrus and Metacitrus leaves was higher in percoll density gradient centrifugation than differential and sucrose density gradient centrifugation. The most clear mtDNAs were obtained from mitochondria included in the Interface band of between 21% and 45% under isomotic, low viscosity conditions in the three step discontinuous percoll density gradient centrifugation. DNase treatment to the crude mitochondrlal suspension still more increased purity of mtDNA by the effective removal of the nuclear and chloroplast DNA and mtDNAs were appeared as a single band at middle position of tube by EtBr /cscl density gradient centrifugation. Agarose gel electrophoresis of mtDNAs resolved a single, broad band containing high molecular weight DNAs In all preparation. Yield of mtDNAs was about 110 and 2 ug Per 2009 in mature and immature leaves respectively. The mtDNA fragment patterns showed by EcoR I treatment were indistinguishable with respect to nom bet and position of bands in Archicitrus and Metacitrus. In the pattern of Hind E restriction, the Metacitrus displayed the unique band between 5.0 and 4.0kb, in addition to four fragments about 5.0, 2.4, 2.15, and 2.0kb, respectively, different from Archicitrus. Also the pattern of total mtDNAs fragment by the treatment of Pst I showed that the distinguishable fragment pat tern was not appeared in Archicitrus(C. iyo Tanaka), but about 6.0, 5.5, 5.0 and 2.Bkb fragments were appeared only in Metacitrus(C. junos Sieb). Therefore it was indicated that two species in intra-subgenus were identical each other, whereas considerable difference was revealed for inter-subgenus.
