  • This paper describes the development of modified heat of hydration and maturity-strength models for concrete containing fly ash and slag. The modified models are developed based on laboratory and literature test results, which include different types of cement, fly ash, and slag. The new models consider cement type, water-to-cementitious material ratio (w/cm), mineral admixture, air content, and curing conditions. The results show that the modified models well predict heat evolution and compressive strength development of concrete made with different cementitious materials. Using the newly developed models, the sensitivity analysis was also performed to study the effect of each parameter on the hydration and strength development. The results illustrate that comparing with other parameters studied, w/cm, air content, fly ash, and slag replacement level have more significantly influence on concrete strength at both early and later age.

  • Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) is characterized by a heterogeneous group of monogenic diabetes. MODY has autosomal dominant inheritance, a primary defect in pancreatic β-cell, and an early onset. Discriminating MODY from type 1 or type 2 diabetes is often challenging at first. To date, 14 different disease causing mutations have been identified in MODY patients worldwide. Targeted DNA sequencing is the gold standard to diagnose MODY and their asymptomatic relatives. Next-generation sequencing may help successfully to diagnose MODY patients and identify new MODY genes. In this review, the current perspectives on diagnosis and treatment of MODY and discrepancy in the disease-causing mutations between the Asian and Caucasian patients with MODY are summarized.

  • This text was experimented and investigated the optimum production time and germination characteristic of Fabaceae plant seed that collect in Korean Chungnam. Optimum time of seed production was early-mid October of Chamaecrista nomame, early November of Lespedeza cuneata and early-mid November of Lespedeza bicolor. Epiphytic amount of seed full ripe was the most times in early October of Chamaecrista nomame, early November of Lespedeza cuneata and Lespedeza bicolor, respectively. Seed rate of maturity was the highest times in early November of Chamaecrista nomame, mid November of Lespedeza cuneata and Lespedeza bicolor, respectively. Germination rate by seed collection time was the highest times in early October of Chamaecrista nomame (99.8%), mid November of Lespedeza cuneata (68.3%) and early November of Lespedeza bicolor (24.3%). Germination days by seed production time was the shortest times in mid October of Chamaecrista nomame, mid November of Lespedeza cuneata and Lespedeza bicolor, respectively. Optimum temperature of germination was $15{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ in Chamaecrista nomame, $25{\sim}30^{\circ}C$ in Lespedeza cuneata, and Lespedeza bicolor was difficult judgment of germination optimum temperature because of low germinating rate.

  • This investigation was conducted to determine the effect of the optimum planting date and place for good seed production on growth variation, grain yields, different of variety, infection of seed by fungi, and seed germination and vigor after room storage. Early maturity Korean soybean variety, Keunolkong, and introduced vegetable soybean variety, Fukura-edamame, were planted at field of YAES. and high cool land of Sajapyong in Milyang(altitude, 850m) on May 15 (early), June 15 (mid.), and July 15 (late) in 1991. The emergence and vegetative period gradually increased in the early planting date. The grain yield, seed weight, pod number, healthy grain yield also increased when Keunolkong was planted on early date. The healthy seed rate, Keunolkong increased in the early planting date, whereas that of Fukura also increased in the late planting date. Infection ratio of grain to phomopsis seed decay (Phomopsis spp. ' Diaporthe phaseolorum) in Fukura steadily increased in the early planting date. Infection ratio of grain to purple seed stain (Cercospora kikuchii) generally increased in the mid and late planting date. The seed germination and seedling vigor after room storage from five to six months gradually increased in the late planting date. And seed germination of Fukura rapidly decreased in the early planting date. Therefore, the optimum planting date for good seed production in early maturity vegetable soybean was June 15 in terms of harvesting time avoid a high temprature and humidity.

  • The aim of this study was to determine the effect of maturity stage on the nutritive value of wild mustard straw in terms of chemical composition, in situ, in vitro dry matter degradability and calculated ME. The nutritive values of wild mustard, Sinapsis arvensis hays harvested at three stages were evaluated by chemical composition, in vitro gas production and in situ dry matter degradation methods. Gas production or dry matter (DM) degradation were determined at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h and their kinetics were described using the equation p = a+b(1-e$^{-ct}$). Maturity had a significant effect on both the chemical composition and degradability of wild mustard. Neutral detergent fibre (NDF) and acid detergent fibre (ADF) (p<0.001) increased with increasing maturity whereas the crude protein (CP) (p<0.001) decreased. The gas produced after 96 h incubation ranged between 64.7 and 81.5 ml per 0.200 g of dry matter. The gas production (ml) at all incubation times and estimated parameters decreased with increasing maturity of wild mustard. The gas production at all incubation times and estimated parameters (a, b (a+b), metabolizable energy (ME) and organic matter digestibility (OMD)) were negatively correlated with NDF and ADF. The DM disappearance after 96 h incubation ranged between 50.8 and 76.1%. The in situ DM disappearance at all incubation times and estimated parameters decreased with increasing maturity of wild mustard. The in situ dry matter disappearance at all incubation times and some estimated parameters (c, a, b and effective dry matter degradability (EDMD)) were negatively correlated with NDF and ADF but positively correlated with CP. The nutritive value of wild mustard continually changed as it matured. Wild mustard, harvested at the proper stage of maturity offers considerable potential as a high quality forage for ruminants during the winter feeding period. The present study showed that if higher quality forage is an objective, wild mustard should be harvested at the early flowering stage.

  • The aim of this study is to examine the relationships between high school student's self-efficacy and conversations with parents on career maturity. We consider how to instruct students in school life, efforts to increase students' career maturity and implications for career education in schools to evaluate students' school life. For the empirical analysis, the Korea Education and Employment Panel (KEEP II) survey data conducted in early 2018 was used. Study results found self-efficacy has a significant positive (+) effect on career maturity and a significant positive effect on conversations with parents. The frequency and content of conversation with parents have a significant positive (+) effect on career maturity. The effect of self-efficacy and conversations with parents variables on career maturity has a significant regulatory effect between the two groups who were satisfied with school life and those who were not.
