<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>In this work, a Prussian blue (PB)/graphene oxide (GO)/chitosan (CS) organic-inorganic composite was successfully synthesized and utilized as an adsorbent for the selective removal of cesium (Cs<SUP>+</SUP>) ions. Taking the advantage of synergistic effect GO, CS and PB nanoparticles, the PB/GO/CS composite exhibited maximum adsorption capacity of 48.35 mg g<SUP>−1</SUP> for Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions. In the presence of competitive monovalent cations (K<SUP>+</SUP> and Na<SUP>+</SUP>), PB/GO/CS showed excellent selectivity (86%) for Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions and had a 6-fold higher distribution coefficient (<I>K</I> <SUB>d</SUB>) than GO/CS. This enhanced adsorption capacity with high selectivity of PB/GO/CS for Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions may have been attributed to (i) the presence of carboxylic, hydroxyl and amino functional groups on GO/CS matrix which strongly bind Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions through electrostatic attraction and chelation, and (ii) the trapping of Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions by the voids of the FCC-structured PB lattice whose size is equivalent to the hydration radius of Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions. Due to its low-cost, facile preparation, high adsorption capacity, and superior Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions selectivity, PB/GO/CS is a promising material for the selective removal of the Cs<SUP>+</SUP> ions from the environment and for protecting ecosystems from the radiation hazards.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Low-cost organic-inorganic hybrid adsorbent for the selective removal of radioactive Cs. </LI> <LI> Exhibit high cesium (Cs) adsorption capacity of 48.35 mg g<SUP>−1</SUP>. </LI> <LI> Confer high structural stability due to strong electrostatic interaction between GO and CS. </LI> <LI> Excellent selectivity for Cs as the hydration radius of Cs matches with the void size of the PB lattice. </LI> <LI> Easy recovery of PB after Cs adsorption by immobilizing it with GO/CS matrix. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>

Usual interstitial pneumonia(UIP) is relatively rare disease of lung parenchyme under the age of 50. Lung cancer is reported to occur as a complication of UIP, but has not been reported in young age patient with UIP in Korea. A 35-year-old man was admitted to the hospital because of dyspnea, cough and mild fever. He had been suffered from dyspnea during 3 years. The dyspnea worsened recent 1 month ago. He had been treated with pneumonia at another hospital during 4 months before this admission. Chest radiographs and High resolution CT showed subpleural and basal dominant reticular opacities in both lung with no change until now. He was smoker and his occupation was car engine-man dealing with benzene. UIP is suspected by history and radiologic findings. Operation for open lung biopsy was performed to obtain lung specimen via video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. Patient's pathologic examination showed UIP combined with adenocarcinoma in RLL superior segment and posterobasal segment and RLL lobectomy was done. After operation, the patient has been in cancer free condition so far. We report a case of UIP combined with lung cancer in young man with brief review of the literature.

Purpose:The purpose of this work is to acquire surface data of anthropromophic phantom using 3D optical scanner instead of conventional computed tomography (CT) scanning methods and to compare the differences between existing CT scan surface data and 3D optical scan surface data. also it is to apply 3D optical scan surface data to Monte Carlo simulations (MCs) to study whether phantom dose evaluation and image implementation are possible under general shooting energy conditions. Targets and Methods:We suggest utilizing a 3D optical scanner when obtaining patient surface data for dose evaluation of normal photography. We obtained surface data of anthropromophic phantom instead of conventional CT scanning methods using 3D optical scanners (Go!SCAN SPARKTM, CREAFORM). The Meshlab program was used to sort and edit 3D scan surface data, and the CT scan surface data and 3D scan surface data differences were quantitatively compared using the 3D slicer program. The reproducibility of the dummy phantom was also evaluated using the 3D Scan Surface Data Analysis Program (VXelements, CREAFORM). Using the SpekCalc program, the X-ray beam energy spectrum was calculated and the X-ray beam was modeled using TOPAS, a Geant4-based MCs. We applied the anthropromophic phantom to MCs evaluate the phantom dose in X-ray energy conditions and study whether the image can be implemented through phase space data. Result:Quantitative comparative analysis of CT scan surface data and 3D optical scan surface data using 3D slicer showed that Hounsdroff distance was Average 2.45 mm and Dice coefficient was 0.97, indicating a close match between CT scan surface data and 3D scan surface data. In addition, the anthropromophic phantom reproducibility assessment shows that the error distribution of the phantom with arms by AP position, RAO position, and LAO position of the anthropromophic phantom averaged 89.78% in the 2 mm error range and 96.05% in the 4 mm error range. MCs using anthropromophic phantom confirmed that 3D scan surface data can be applied to Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate phantom dose under X-ray energy conditions through phase space data. Conclusion:In this study, anthropromophic phan tom data acquisition using 3D optical scanners is simpler than conventional CT scan methods, provides precise information of various locations and uniform surface structures without radiation exposure, enables dosing using MCs, and enables image implementation through phase space data.

Effects of adding metal oxides upon characteristics of infrared radiator of porous cordierite have been investigated. Three kinds of metal oxides, CoO, CuO and MnO_2, were added to cordierite and the amount of metal oxides was varied from 3 to 9 wt%. The porosity and the emissivity were decreased by increasing amount of CuO additive. While the porosity and the emissivity were increased by increasing amounts of CoO, MnO_2 additives. Since the rough surface and porous cordierite has higher emissivity than smooth and dense cordierite, the experimental results of the effect of metal oxides addition was explained on the basis of porosity. The emissivity was proportional to the porosity of the sintered body, which was influenced by the types and the amount of metal oxides.

Reproductive cycle and sex reversal of the cock-tail wrasse, Pteragogus flagellifera, were investigated histologically on the gonadal development, sex change of the gonad and studied by gonadosomatic index (GSI) , color patterns. Samples were collected at the costal area of Hamduck in Cheju-do, from October, 1991 to October. 1992. In male and female, GSI began to increase from May(ma1e) and June(femalel when the water temperature began to increase and reached it's maximum value in Jun(male) and July(female). It began to decrease from August, thereafter, maintained relatively low value until May of nex year. The annual reproductive cycle of this species could be classified iuto four successive development stage : growing stage (May-June), mature stage (June-July), ripe and spent stage (July-August) , degenerative and resting stage (August-April). The species is a protogynous hermaphrodite, and has two color patterns : red-yellow (A) and dark-green (B). A-fish were less than 12.0cm SL and consisted of female (74.4 %) and fish with transitional gonad (25.6%). B-fish consisted of secondary male (87.3%) and fish with transitional gonad (12.7%). In P. flagellifera. individuals with hermaphrodetic gonad were observed in 8.0-12.0cm SL. Sex reversal of this species could be occured from 8.0~12.0m SL.

This paper makes an information to the effect and method of using computer program in classroom instruction. To give the information, first, exponential function and power function are transformed by means of logarithm function and as an example model to represent physical phenomena we have an experiment by rolling dice according to a random number generator of a TURBO-PASCAL computer program. Second, we make an analysis to the statistical effect of using CAI in rational expression and irrational expression. As a result of testing hypotheses, we know that problem solving of using computer program is significant and we expect it to be another choice in mathematics education.

This study proposes the analysis and evaluation method of time series ultrasonic signal using the chaotic feature extraction for degradation extent. Features extracted from time series data using the chaotic time series signal analyze quantitatively material degradation extent. For this purpose, analysis objective, in this study, is fractal dimension, lyapunov exponent and strange attractor on hyperspace. The lyapunov exponent is a measure of the rate at which nearby trajectories in phase space diverge. Chaotic trajectories have at least one positive lyapunov exponent. The fractal dimension appears as a metric space such as the phase space trajectory of a dynamical system. In experiment, fractal(correlation) dimensions and lyapunov exponents showed values of mean 3.837∼4.211 and 0.054∼0.078 in case of degradation material. The proposed chaotic feature extraction in this study can enhances ultrasonic pattern recognition results from degradation signals.

Mandarine orange (Citrus unshiu Marc.) only added with sugar was fermented by effective microorganisms (EM) called "EM-fermented orange". EM was mainly composed of lactic acid bacteria, phototrophic bacteria and feast. As pH of EM-fermented orange reached 3.5 to 4.0 in the course of fermentation, the incubation was stopped. and then. EM-fermented orange was preservable at room temperature for about 6 months. Composition and concentration of free amino acids in EM-fermented orange were analyzed. Concentration of total amino acids was 167mg/l, and the relative content of carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine) which was well known as a kind of antioxidant materials was very high. 41%. In addition. crude extract showing antioxidant activity could be obtained from EM-fermented orange using some organic solvents. The antioxidant activity of the crude extract was equivalent to about 9% of that of vitamin E by the use of 1.1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method. It was suggested that EM-fermented orange having antioxidant characteristics could promote the health of fish.
