Trans-cinnamic acid-4-hydroxylase(tC4H) is the first cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase of the phenylpropanoid pathway. The roots of avocado seedlings were wounded and examined to determine whether the tC4H would be activated in response to wounding and/or whether tC4H activity be modulated by the application of exogenous p-coumarate. At the specified length of times, the wounded and treated roots were either frozen in liquid nitrogen or used immediately to extract microsomal proteins. The microsomal proteins were subjected to immunoblot analysis using polyclonal antibodies against CYP73 of tC4H gene. In this study, tC4H was induced in wounded roots sealed in bags within 6 hours, and in low level({TEX}$10^{-8}${/TEX}M) of p-coumarate solution within 24 hours, whereas the olution without p-coumarate and high levels of p-coumarate solution repressed tC4H induction in wounded roots. These results indicate that tC4H is induced by wounding in the root of avocado, and is inhibited by the application of exogenous p-coumarate.

This study Is to summarize the contents for the investigation and design of the construction for oil storage. Since underground caverns are large scale, in their construction one should consider the mechanical stability of cave·rns and the economic view of construction. On the basis of them, cavern's section and layout were determined and water curtains were designed to maintain hydraulic equilibrium so that gases were sealed tightly. Also the supporting criteria for rock bolt and stotcrete were determined by means of the classification of rock masses and the results of finite element method. The criteria of grouting reinforcement were presented according to the results of injection test in the pilot holes of working face.

We propose a borehole test technique to estimate permeability of rocks in borehole. The borehole tests are hydraulic injection tests such as leak-off test and hydraulic fracturing tests, which are originally conducted for stress or casing integrity assessment and not for permeability measurement. We use one-dimensional radial diffusion equation to interpret fluid injection test results in terms of permeability. We apply this technique to a leak-off test conducted at a depth of 700 m in a wellbore, where rock formation is mudstone. The estimated permeability is at an order of $10^{-16}m^2$, which is somewhat high but within the range reported for mudstones previously. Quantitative rick assessment suggests that an accurate measurement of open hole section length is important to improve reliability of results. More data may be needed to ensure the reliability of this technique. If validated, however, this technique can provide cost-effective estimation of in situ permeability without conducting independent permeability tests in borehole.

Abstract Under the physical stress on photovoltaic (PV) module, it will be warped according to elongation of the front glass and then micro-crack will be occurred in the thermally sealed solar cell. This micro-crack leads to drop of short circuit current of the PV module. This is because of increase of resistance component by micro-crack. Micro-crack at specific solar cell in the module lessens the durability of PV module with reduced output, hot-spot caused by solar cell output mismatch and increased resistance component. This study shows the relation between electrical characteristics and micro- cracks due to mechanical stress on PV module.

Recently, drywall's demand is increasing by interest about spread of remodeling house and separated wall structure. This research evaluated panel's SRI and found out panel properties using material of small size. Conclusion of this research is as following. First, we confirmed the effectiveness of small-scale material. Measuring results appeared equally about 400 ${\sim}$ 500 Hz that is fc frequency. Second,, it is no big difference in SRI that use CRC or magnesium board that is used for protection of panel surface. Third, it is compared SRI by used junction to make wall that become disjointing assembly. By the result, sealed wall secures resemblant SRI performance almost with normal wall. Therefore, using joint materials and sealing junction became wall that is detached with high SRI.

Sound insulation performance of the flush door in the apartment unit was recently decreased due to the door for the purpose of barrier free. To evaluate sound insulation, the test for 13 kinds of flush doors was performed as aperture conditions under the flush door. and the measured value was compared with the predicted values of theoretical sound transmission. The results were summarized follow; First, in case of doors with aperture by barrier free, the single number quantities ($D_{pw}$) were evaluated $21{\sim}23dB$. Whereas, in case of existing door with frame, $D_{pw}$ was evaluated $28{\sim}31dB$. And in case of sealed doors, $D_{pw}$ was evaluated $31{\sim}34dB$. Second, the measured $D_{pw}$ was good agreement with the predicted $D_{pw}$ in condition of small aperture.

The use of microporous polymer lubricants (MPLs) can eliminate the storage, sealing, and pumping problems associated with liquid lubricants, This paper discusses the use of MPLs for a component as rolling-element bearings. An MPL composed of 40% HDPE and 60% ester oil was synthesized and the MPL was applied to a ball bearing. The MPL ball bearing, filled with the MPL instead of the usual grease pack, tested and compared with the usual grease sealed ball bearing. The MPL applied to a ball bearing showed lubricant properties as good as usual grease, and showed higher performance in bearing oil leakage test, rotating torque test and thermal test at high speed running than usual grease.

The purpose of this study is to optimize Nd:YAG laser welding parameters to seaz a Rf source into a Ti micro capsule. Ti tube ends can be sealed as some length of ぉbe end is melted and coalesced. The exact control of the melted length is the most important to get sound sealing. The Nozzle type, tube rotating speed, tilt angle, focal position, pumping voltage, pulse frequency and pulse width were selected as the Nd:YAG laser welding Parameters. These Parameters were optimized by the Taguchi experimental method using 115 orthogonal array. Appearance and cross section of the seated tube ends were examined by SEM.

Phase relations of the Pd-Sb system were investigated using the sealed-capsule technique; the quenched run products were studied by reflected light microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and electron microprobe analysis. Eight binary phases were confirmed to exist in the system: Pd20Sb7, Pd31Sb12, Pd8Sb3 (mertieite II), Pd5Sb2, Pd2Sb, Pd5Sb3, PdSb (sudburyite), and PdSb2, (unnamed PdSb2), The X-ray powder diffraction data of all the phases, except for Pd5Sb3, however, may be indexable on an orthorhombic cell, space group Cmc2, with a=3.362(1), b=17.484(7), c=6.934(2)$\AA$. Some physical properties as well as re-determined cell parameters are newly established. A revised phase relations of the Pd-Sb system are presented.

The selection and treatment with resection and drainage for patients with emphysematous bullae is discussed with reference to two patients recently. One case with bilateral multiple bullous emphysema resulting tension pneumothorax due to rupture of the bullae on right, 47 year old man with pulmonary tuberculosis history for 16 years, was treated with resection of the bullae on right including upper lobectomy and c!osed rhoracostomy drainage on left for another spontaneous pneumothorax, and result was excellent for 6 month after discharge. Another 53 year old man with giant tension air cysts occupying right whole lung field and shifting mediastinum to the left was treated with right under water sealed closed thoracostomy drainage for 7 days in vain, and resection was not performed for his poor respiratory function and general condition. The most useful preoperarive information was obtained from a study of the plain chest radiogram and the surgical procedure of choice was obliteration of the bullae at thoracotomy.
