Lung cancer remains a deadly disease with unsatisfactory overall survival. Resveratrol (Res) has the potential to inhibit growth of several types of cancer such as prostate and colorectal examples. In the current study, we evaluated in vitro and in vivo anticancer efficiency of Res in a xenograft model with A549 cells. Cell inhibition effects of Res were measured by MTT assay. Apoptotis of A549 cells was assessed with reference to caspase-3 activity and growth curves of tumor volume and bodyweight of the mice were measured every two days. In vitro cytotoxicity evaluation indicated Res to exert dose-dependent cell inhibition effects against A549 cells with activation of caspase-3. In vivo evaluation showed Res to effectively inhibit the growth of lung cancer in a dose-dependent manner in nude mice. Therefore, we believe that Res might be a promising phytomedicine for cancer therapy and further efforts are needed to explore this potential therapeutic strategy.

InP crystal is an increasingly important semiconductor material in the application of long-wave optoelectronic and high frequency devices. The equilibrium vapor pressure of phosphorus at the melting point of InP is so high that the synthesis process is very difficult. Liquid-encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) pulling from the melt at high pressure is a generally favored technique to grow InP single crystals. This technique involves two steps: the synthesis of polycrystalline powder and the growth of single crystal from the melt at high pressure. This article reviewed the latest development in the preparation of InP crystal and the evaluation on the crystal quality.

Methods for estimation of the effective stress intensity factor range (${\Delta}K_{eff}$) are evaluated for narrow and wide band random loading crack growth test data of 2024-T351 aluminum alloy. Three methods of determining $K_{op}$, visual measurement, ASTM offset compliance method, and the neural network method proposed by Kang and Song, and three methods of estimating ${\Delta}K_{eff}$, conventional, the 2/PI0 and 2/PI methods proposed by Donald and Paris, are compared in a quantitative manner by using the results of fatigue crack growth life prediction under random loading. For all $K_{op}$ determination methods discussed, the 2/PI0 and 2/PI methods of estimating ${\Delta}K_{eff}$ provide better results than conventional method for narrow and wide band random loading data.

Effects of various monosodium glutamate(MSG_ concentration (0-400mg%) on the quality of Korean cabbage kimchi during fermentation at 2$0^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The growth of lactic acid bacteria titratable acidity pH content of thiamine ascorbic acid $\beta$-carotene and sensory evaluation were observed in the presencve of MSG. Titratable acidity was increased in the kimchi contained MSG during the fermentation.l Wheeas the changes of pH in the kimchi contained MSG were similar to those in control, Maximum growth of lactic acid bacteria was observed after 49 hour of fermentation in kimchi contained with 200mg MSG. The might be due to the fact that MSG was given optimum pH for acid bacteria growth because of its buffering action. Therefore the periods of kimchi fermentation were reduced by addition of MSG, MSG also affected on the stability of ascorbic acid thiamine and $\beta$-carotene. According of MSG. MSG also affected on the stability of ascorbic acid thiamine and $\beta$-carotene. According to sensory evaluation MSG reduced sour taste in kimchi which increased edible periods.

The most important mode of subcritical crack growth is primary water stress corrosion crack, which was the reported mechanism from the root cause analysis of the crack in the bimetallic welds. Stress corrosion crack growth evaluations was carried out for several flaw shapes of both axial and circumferential flaws, using the steady-state stresses including residual stresses. This evaluation considered the possibility of additional flaws in the primary loops of nuclear power plant, even though no such flaws have been identified by Ultrasonic Test. Consequently, Results show that the predicted flaw sizes will determine acceptability for continued service and maintenance.

There arc numerous techniques available to appraise pupil achievement in elementary school mathematics. The teacher must utilize a variety of approaches to assess pupil growth in the mathematics curriculum. Each evaluation technique has its strengths as well as weaknesses. Thus, a specific evaluation technique may be utilized as a check on other approaches to appraisal. Pupil achievement must be assessed in terms of stated relevant understandings. skills, and attitudinal objectives. It is not adequate to appraise pupil growth in terms of understandings objectives only. Pupils must also be assessed in terms of skills objectives. The understandings acquired by learners must be utilized; thus, skills objectives need to be stressed adequately in ongoing units of study in elementary school mathematics. Adequate emphasis also needs to be placed upon pupils achieving attitudinal goals. Desireable attitudes on the part of learners aid in achieving understandings and skills objectives. A defensible program of evaluation would then stress that pupil achievement be adequately appraised in terms of understandings, skills, and attitudinal objectives.

The fatigue failure of rail is a principal source of derailment accidents. The reduction of fatigue failures can be achieved by Intensive track maintenance and periodic safety assessments for the railway. For the safety assessments, it is required to have more accurate knowledge for fatigue behavior such as the crack initiation, propagation, crack growth rate and the remaining service life in rail. In this paper, the mean stress effects for the fatigue behavior of rail steel are studied. For this study, the fatigue test is conducted and some equations for fatigue evaluation are applied and compared. From the results, we can see that the fatigue crack growth rate is the more increased as the men stress Is the more increased, the mean stress effect is represented well by the combination of stress intensity factor range and maximum stress intensity factor and Crooker and Range's equation represented by ${\Delta}K, K_{max}$ is the best fit for fatigue evaluation and safety assessment of rail.
