Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine clean room(C/R) structure, air conditioning and contamination control systems and to provide basic information for identifying a correlation between the semiconductor work environment and workers' disease. Methods: This study was conducted at 200 mm and 300 mm semiconductor wafer fabrication facilities. The C/R structure and air conditioning method were investigated using basic engineering data from documentation for C/R construction. Furthermore, contamination parameters such as airborne particles, temperature, humidity, acids, ammonia, organic compounds, and vibration in the C/R were based on the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors(ITRS). The properties of contamination control systems and the current status of monitoring of various contaminants in the C/R were investigated. Results: 200 mm and 300 mm wafer fabrication facilities were divided into fab(C/R) and sub fab(Plenum), and fab, clean sub fab and facility sub fab, respectively. Fresh air(FA) is supplied in the plenum or clean sub fab by the outdoor air handling unit system which purifies outdoor air. FA supply or contaminated indoor air ventilation rates in the 200 mm and 300 mm wafer fabrication facilities are approximately 10-25%. Furthermore, semiconductor clean rooms strictly controlled airborne particles(${\leq}1,000{\sharp}/ft^3$), temperature($23{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$), humidity($45{\pm}5%$), air velocity(0.4 m/s), air change(60-80 cycles/hr), vibration(${\leq}1cm/s^2$), and differential pressure(atmospheric pressure$+1.0-2.5mmH_2O$) through air handling and contamination control systems. In addition, acids, alkali and ozone are managed at less than internal criteria by chemical filters. Conclusions: Semiconductor clean rooms can be a pleasant environment for workers as well as semiconductor devices. However, based on the precautionary principle, it may be necessary to continuously improve semiconductor processes and the work environment.

Final goal of periodontal treatment is to reconstruct the destructed periodontal tissue as well as to remove the necrotic pathologic elements. The purpose of this study is to investigate on the effect of Zizyphi extract to the inhibitory ability on collagenolytic activity of P gingivalis, biologic activity of gingival fibroblasts, and on the collagen and protein synthesis of gingival fibroblasts. Gingival fibroblast from giniva of first bicuspids from patient for orthodontic treatment were used and cultured. For the measurement of inhibitory ability of collagenolytic activity, crude enzyme was extracted and used on the basis of modified Ono's method. On the inhibition of collagenolytic enzyme from herbal extracts, collagenokit CLN-100 were used. The cellular activity of gingival fibroblast, were studied using MTT solution and measured optical density on 570mm by ELISA reader. To measure the effects on the ability of whole protein and collagen synthesis, cell membrane was destructed with ultrasonic grinder after culturing, centrifuged and counted by liquid scintilation counter. The inhibitory effects on producing of $IL-l{\beta}$ by monocyte, after promotion of producing $IL-l{\beta}$ by LPS, were compared with the mixture of herbal extracts and other drugs using thymocyte stimulation assay. About inhibitory effects of $PGF_2$. by gingival fibroblasts, herbal extract was compared with the addition of the other control groups using enzyme imunoassay. On the inhibition of collagenolytic activity by P. gingivalis, benzene extracts showed the most efficient inhibitory effects among the $19{\mu}g/ml$ of the compared extracts and 40.5% by Tetracycline. On the cellular activity promoting effects, compared extracts showed a bit of more effects than PDGF of $100{\mu}g/ml$ concentration and IGF of $20{\mu}g/ml$ concentration. All of the PDGF, IGF, Zizyphi Fructus extract should increase in collagen synthesis, but especially 70% ethylalcohol extracts of Zizyphi Fructus showed comparably high effects among the compared extracts. Effects on whole protein synthesis were slightly increased on every extract but especially 70% ethylalcohol extract showed significantly effective than any other estract. On the inhibitory effects of Zizyphi Fructus $IL-l{\beta}$ production by monocyte, compared extracts showed 70% of highly inhibitory effect than that of 60% inhibition effects on controlled group and each extracts showed no significant difference. In $PGF_2$ production inhibitroy effect of Zizyphi Fructus gingival fibroblasts, Herbal extracts showed 70% of inhibition comparing with tat of 90.2% of controlled group, but each extracts showed similar effects excluding the $H_2O$ extracts. These results suggested that Zizyphi Fructus might be useful medicine for inhibition of inflammatory mediator including $IL-l{\beta}$ and $PGF_2$.

As pointed out by many previous investigators, the cardio-pulmonary system of well trained athletes is so adapted that they can perform a given physical exercise more efficiently as compared to non-trained persons. However, the time course of the development of these cardio-pulmonary adaptations has not been extensively studied in the past. Although the development of these training effects is undoubtedly related to the magnitude of an exercise load which is repeatedly given, it would be practical if one could maintain a good physical fitness with a minimal daily exercise. Hence, the present investigation was undertaken to study the time course of the development of cardio-pulmonary adaptations while a group of non-athletes was subjected to a daily 6 to 10 minutes running exercise for a period of 4 weeks. Six healthy male medical students (22 to 24 years old) were randomly selected as experimental subjects, and were equally divided into two groups (A and B). Both groups were subjected to the same daily running exercise (approximately 1,000 kg-m). 6 days a week for 4 weeks, but the rate of exercise was such that the group A ran on treadmill with 8.6% grade for 10 min daily at a speed of 127 m/min while the group B ran for 6 min at a speed of 200 m/min. In order to assess the effects of these physical trainings on the cardio-pulmonary system, the minute volume, the $O_2$ consumption, the $CO_2$ output and the heart rate were determined weekly while the subject was engaged in a given running exercise on treadmill (8.6% grade and 127 m/min) for a period of 5 min. In addition, the arterial blood pressure, the cardiac output, the acid-base state of arterial blood and the gas composition of arterial blood were also determined every other week in 4 subjects (2 from each group) while they were engaged in exercise on a bicycle ergometer at a rate of approximately 900 kg m/min until exhaustion. The maximal work capacity was also determined by asking the subject to engage in exercise on treadmill and ergometer until exhaustion. For the measurement of minute volume, the expired gas was collected in a Douglas bag. The $O_2$ consumption and the $CO_2$ output were subsequently computed by analysing the expired gas with a Scholander micro gas analyzer. The heart rate was calculated from the R-R interval of ECG tracings recorded by an Offner RS Dynograph. A 19 gauge Cournand needle was inserted into a brachial artery, through which arterial blood samples were taken. A Statham $P_{23}AA$ pressure transducer and a PR-7 Research Recorder were used for recording instantaneous arterial pressure. The cardiac output was measured by indicator (Cardiogreen) dilution method. The results may be summarized as follows: (1) The maximal running time on treadmill increased linearly during the 4 week training period at the end of which it increased by 2.8 to 4.6 times. In general, an increase in the maximal running time was greater when the speed was fixed at a level at which the subject was trained. The mammal exercise time on bicycle ergometer also increased linearly during the training period. (2) In carrying out a given running exercise on treadmill (8.6%grade, 127 m/min), the following changes in cardio·pulmonary functions were observed during the training period: (a) The minute volume as well as the $O_2$ consumption during steady state exercise tended to decrease progressively and showed significant reductions after 3 weeks of training. (b) The $CO_2$ production during steady state exercise showed a significant reduction within 1 week of training. (c) The heart rate during steady state exercise tended to decrease progressively and showed a significant reduction after 2 weeks of training. The reduction of heart rate following a given exercise tended to become faster by training and showed a significant change after 3 weeks. Although the resting heart rate also tended to decrease by training, no significant change was observed. (3) In rallying out a given exercise (900 kg-m/min) on a bicycle ergometer, the following change in cardio-vascular functions were observed during the training period: (3) The systolic blood pressure during steady state exercise was not affected while the diastolic blood Pressure was significantly lowered after 4 weeks of training. The resting diastolic pressure was also significantly lowered by the end of 4 weeks. (b) The cardiac output and the stroke volume during steady state exercise increased maximally within 2 weeks of training. However, the resting cardiac output was not altered while the resting stroke volume tended to increase somewhat by training. (c) The total peripheral resistance during steady state exercise was greatly lowered within 2 weeks of training. The mean circulation time during exorcise was also considerably shortened while the left heart work output during exercise increased significantly within 2 weeks. However, these functions_at rest were not altered by training. (d) Although both pH, $P_{co2}\;and\;(HCO_3-)$ of arterial plasma decreased during exercise, the magnitude of reductions became less by training. On the other hand, the $O_2$ content of arterial blood decreased during exercise before training while it tended to increase slightly after training. There was no significant alteration in these values at rest. These results indicate that cardio-pulmonary adaptations to physical training can be acquired by subjecting non-athletes to brief daily exercise routine for certain period of time. Although the time of appearance of various adaptive phenomena is not identical, it may be stated that one has to engage in daily exercise routine for at least 2 weeks for the development of significant adaptive changes.

관비재배 및 수경재배시 비료를 녹일 때 소요되는 시간과 노동력을 절감하고, 작업의 안전성 확보와 자동화를 가능하게 할 수 있는 장치의 개발을 위해 본 실험을 실시하였다. 실험은 세 종류로 수행되었다. 먼저, 효과적인 비료용해 방법을 구명하기 위해 수중펌프를 양액 통 속에 두고 양액 통의 입구에 삼베포를 깐 거름망을 설치하여 물을 스프레이하여 비료를 녹이는 방법(Spray), 수중프로펠러를 이용하는 방법(Propeller), 수중펌프를 양액 통 속에 넣어 물의 흐름을 만들어 주는 방법(Submerged), 에어컴프레서를 이용하여 양액 통 속에 공기흐름을 만들어 비료를 용해하는 방법(Airflow) 등 4개의 처리를 두고 실험하였다. Spray 처리에서 가장 시간이 짧게 소요되는 것으로 조사되었으나 농가가 실제로 적용하는데 어려움이 있어서, Spray 처리 다음으로 비료를 녹이는 시간이 짧고, 노동력을 절감할 수 있으며 양액제조 과정을 자동화 하는 것이 용이할 것으로 사료되는 Airflow 처리를 선택하였다. 두 번째 실험에서는 Airflow 처리에서 사용한 재질과 분지관수를 개선한 6지관 및 8지관 장치를 제작하여 비교 실험했는데, 6지관 장치가 비료용해시간이 짧고, 양액탱크의 입구 크기에 관계없이 사용이 가능하며, 제작이 용이하여 가장 효과적인 장치로 판단되었다. 세 번째 실험에서는 개발된 6지관 장치를 이용하여 비료를 용해하는데 소요되는 시간을 조사하여 경제성을 분석하였는데, 농가에서 수중펌프를 이용하여 비료를 용해하는 방법보다 시간은 1/8배 절약할 수 있으며 경제성이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 아울러 $KNO_3$, $Ca(NO_3)_2{\cdot}4H_2O$, Fe-EDTA 등의 용해특성을 조사했다.

KURT 지하수의 지구화학적 특성을 조사하기 위하여 단열충전광물과 지하수의 지구화학적 성분이 조사되었다. KURT내의 시추공들로부터 얻어진 시추코아로부터 방해석(calcite), 일라이트(illite), 로먼타이트(laumonite), 녹니석(chlorite), 녹염석(epidote), 몬모릴로나이트(montmorillonite), 카올리나이트(kaolinite) 및 일라이트와 스멕타이트(smectite)의 혼합층상광물 등이 감정되었다. 시추공 DB-1, YS-1, YS-4에서 채취한 대부분의 지하수는 pH 8이상의 알칼리 환경을 보여주었으며 YS-1을 제외한 두 관측공의 전기전도도는 약 2$200{\mu}S/cm$를 나타냈으며 이들 시추공에서 천부지하수는 $Ca-HCO_3$ 와 $Ca-Na-HCO_3$ 유형 이였으며 심부 250m이하에서는 $Na-HCO_3$ 유형을 나타냈다. DB-1 공의 심부지하수에서 낮은 용존산소량(DO)와 Eh값의 감소를 측정하였으며 이는 환원환경을 지시한다. KURT의 지하수 시료의 $Cl^-$ 이온의 농도는 5 mg/L 이하이며 전 샘플링구간에서 커다란 변화 없이 일정하게 나타났다. 이러한 현상은 KURT 지역의 천부와 심부지하수가 혼합(mixing)되어 $Cl^-$의 농도가 깊이에 따라 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 해석된다. 지하수 시료의 ${\delta}^{18}O$과 ${\delta}D$ 분석 값은 각각 -10.4~-8.2‰과 -71.3~-55.0‰의 범위로 지하수가 순환수 기원임을 보여준다. 긴 순환경로를 거친 심부지하수의 수소, 산소 동위원소 값은 천부지하수에 비해 감소하며 이러한 값은 일반적으로 높은 불소농도를 동반하였다. 이는 불소함량이 높은 지하수가 물-암석 반응에 의해 생성되었음을 보여준다. KURT 지역에서 채취한 지하수의 $^{14}C$를 이용한 연대측정분석에서 지하수의 체류시간(residence time)이 약 2,000~6,000년으로 측정되었다. 이러한 체류시간은 KURT 지역의 화강암에 존재하는 지하수가 다른 유럽의 화강암지역(예, 스트리파 지역, 스웨덴)보다 상대적으로 지하수의 연령이 오래되지 않은 것으로 측정되었다.

Background : Even though it is well known that pulmonary rehabilitation (PR) improves exercise capacity, and the quality of life, in patients with chronic lung diseases, not many patients can attend hospital based intensive PR in Korea. The purpose of this study was to develop a method for a home-based PR program, and study its effectiveness. Materials and Methods : Twenty patients with chronic lung diseases were randomly divided into two groups : a home PR group comprising of 10 male patients, with a mean age of 70 years, and a control group comprising of 10 male patients, with a mean age of 65 years. We developed exercise programs, depending on the exercise capacity of each patient, which were easy to do at home. The PR program consisted of a 12 week period of enforced aerobic (mostly walking) and muscle strengthening exercises, as prescribed by the exercise specialist, in accordance with the functional capacity of the patient. In addition to the education, nutritional and psychiatric consultation was undertaken, and respiratory muscle training arranged. Patients visited hospital every 2 weeks for evaluation and exercise prescription. Results : All patients finished the 12 week course of therapy. Following the home PR, the endurance times and work capacity of the upper and lower extremities were significantly increased in the treatment group in comparison to the controls. The six minute working (Eds note:should) 'working' read "walking"?) distance was increased from $465{\pm}60m$ to $508{\pm}37m$ and the maximal inspiratory pressure from $72.8{\pm}27.2cmH_2O$ to $91.4{\pm}30.9cmH_2O$. The quality of life, as assessed by St Georges Respiratory Questionnaire (SGRQ), was also improved following PR. (Eds note:do you have figures for before and after, and a reference for the SGRQ?i.e. for the main paper.) Conclusion : The home PR program we developed seemed to be applicable, and effective, to most of the patients with chronic lung diseases in this study.

HPLC/MS를 이용하여 국내 자생 엉겅퀴(Cirsium japonicum)의 페놀성 화합물을 분석한 결과 제주지역 엉겅퀴가 가장 많은 페놀성 화합물을 함유하고 있었으며, chlorogenic acid가 73.15 mg/g dry weight, linarin이 76.67 mg/g dry weight 그리고 pectolinarin이 12.98 mg/g dry weight으로 확인되었다. 엉겅퀴의 기능성 식품으로서의 가치를 확인하기 위하여 산화방지 활성 및 신경세포 보호효과를 평가한 결과 DPPH, ABTS 및 FRAP assay에서 엉겅퀴의 강력한 산화방지 활성이 나타났다. 엉겅퀴 추출물이 DPPH 및 ABTS 라디칼의 50%를 저해하는 농도는 각각 $567{\mu}g/mL$와 $130{\mu}g/mL$으로 나타났다. DPPH, ABTS, FRAP법을 통한 총산화방지능은 각각 11.32, 100.15, $12.76{\mu}g/mL$ trolox equivalents 나타났다. 과산화수소로 산화적 손상을 유도한 PC12 세포에 대하여 MTT와 LDH assay를 이용하여 세포생존률을 측정한 결과 농도 의존적으로 세포 보호 활성이 나타났으며, 마찬가지로 활성산소종 생성률을 측정한 결과 농도 의존적으로 활성산소종 생성이 감소되어 세포 보호활성이 확인되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 엉겅퀴의 우수한 산화방지 활성 및 신경세포 보호효과가 검증되었다. 따라서 엉겅퀴는 안전한 식품 재료로서 꾸준히 섭취하였을 때 천연 산화방지제로 작용하여 신경퇴행을 예방함으로써 알츠하이머병, 파킨슨병 및 헌팅턴병 등의 질병 위험을 줄일 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
