  • Atenolol is a water soluble, ${\beta}_1$ selective adrenoceptor antagonist used in the treatment of angina and hypertension. It is primarily eliminated renally with minimal hepatic metabolism. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of Samchundang Atenolol (Samchundang Pharmaceutical Co., Korea.) to Tenolmin(Hyundai Pharmaceutical Ind. Co., Korea). The atenolol release from the two atenolol tablets in vitro was tested using KP VII Apparatus II method with various different kinds of dissolution media (pH 1.2, 4.0, 6.8 buffer solution and water). Twenty four normal male volunteers, 22.83$\pm$1.99 years in age and 65.82$\pm$7.15 kg in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized $2{\times}2$ cross-over study was employed. After one tablet containing 50 mg of atenolol was orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentrations of atenolol in serum were determined using HPLC method with fluorescence detector. The dissolution profiles of two atenolol tablets were very similar at all dissolution media. Besides, the pharmacokinetic parameters such as $AUC_{t}$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were calculated and ANOVA test was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters using logarithmically transformed $AUC_{t}$ and $C_{max}$ and untransformed $T_{max}$. The results showed that the differences in $AUC_{t}$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ between two tablets based on the Tenolmin were 3.74%, 4.38% and 17.77%, respectively. There were no sequence effects between two tablets in these parameters. The 90% confidence intervals using logarithmically transformed data were within the acceptance range of log(0.8) to log(1.25) (e.g., log(0.98)∼log(1.l1) and log(0.95)∼log(1.l5) for $AUC_{t}$ and $C_{max}$ respectively), indicating that Samchundang Atenolol tablet is bioequivalent to Tenolmin tablet.

  • Purpose: The limited FOV(Field of View) of CT (Computed Tomography) can cause truncation artifact at external DFOV (Display Field of View) in PET/CT image. In our study, we measured the difference of SUV and compared the influence affecting to the image reconstructed with the extended DFOV. Materials and Methods: NEMA 1994 PET Phantom was filled with $^{18}F$(FDG) of 5.3 kBq/mL and placed at the center of FOV. Phantom images were acquired through emission scan. Shift the phantom's location to the external edge of DFOV and images were acquired with same method. All of acquired data through each experiment were reconstructed with same method, DFOV was applied 50 cm and 70 cm respectively. Then ROI was set up on the emission image, performed the comparative analysis SUV. In the clinical test, patient group shown truncation artifact was selected. ROI was set up at the liver of patient's image and performed the comparative analysis SUV according to the change of DFOV. Results: The pixel size was increase from 3.91 mm to 5.47 mm according to the DFOV increment in the centered location phantom study. When extended DFOV was applied, $_{max}SUV$ of ROI was decreased from 1.49 to 1.35. In case of shifted the center of phantom location study, $_{max}SUV$ was decreased from 1.30 to 1.20. The $_{max}SUV$ was 1.51 at the truncated region in the extended DFOV. The difference of the $_{max}SUV$ was 25.9% higher at the outside of the truncated region than inside. When the extended DFOV was applied, $_{max}SUV$ was decreased from 3.38 to 3.13. Conclusion: When the extended DFOV was applied, $_{max}SUV$ decreasing phenomenon can cause pixel to pixel noise by increasing of pixel size. In this reason, $_{max}SUV$ was underestimated. Therefore, We should consider the underestimation of quantitative result in the whole image plane in case of patient study applied extended DFOV protocol. Consequently, the result of the quantitative analysis may show more higher than inside at the truncated region.

  • WECPNL(Weighted Equivalent Continuous Perceived Noise Level) which designated currently in Domestic 'The Stanrd Method of Measuring Noise and Vibration' is composed of different factor with WECPNL that published in ICAO. Domestic WECPNL is concerned in application of $L_{MAX}$ measurement. On the other hand, ICAO's WECPNL is based on EPNL that includes factors of the pure tone correction and the duration time. NNI and NEF also are each based on PNL and EPNL. Because a military aircraft noise, especially, has the pure tone of high frequency and the irregular duration, it seems to be undesirable to estimate aircraft noise for using Domestic WECPNL. Therefore, this study was performed to detect a flaw of Korean WECPNL, through comparison of the trend of each other aircraft noise index by using equivalent rawdata.

  • 히스토그램은 원본 데이타를 효과적으로 요약하는 기법중의 하나 이며, 선택도 측정과 근사 질의 처리 등에 널리 사용되고 있다. 기존의 히스토그램 구축 알고리즘들은 하나의 값으로 표현되는 점 데이타에 대하여 적용 가능한 알고리즘 이었다. 그러나 일상생활에서는 하루 동안의 온도, 주식 가격과 같은 구간 데이타들도 점 데이타만큼 흔하게 접할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 Max 에러에 대한 히스토그램 구축 알고리을 구간 데이터에 대하여 확장한다. 합성 데이타를 사용한 실험을 통하여 기존의 점 데이타에 대한 히스토그램을 초보적으로 확장하는 방법보다 본 논문에서 제시된 알고리즘의 성능이 좋다는 것을 보였다.

  • Protein kinase C, a protein related in PI cascade, was partially purified from the cytosol protein of etiolated plants of Glycine max by DEAE-52 cellulose chromatography and phenylsepharose chromatography. When the DEAE column was eluted with 0-0.8 M linear gradient KCl, tow fractions were found that increased the phosphorylation of histon H1 about five and nine-fold in the presence of 5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL phosphatidylserine and 0.5 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL diolein, respectively. These fractions were used as DEAE pool. The reaction eluted with relatively high concentration of KCl was loaded on phyenylsepharose column with 5 mM CaCl2 and eluted with 1 mM EGTA. A fraction contained the protein kinase C, which increased the phosphorylation of the histon H1 was fractionated. To determine the molecular weight of PKC, the fraction eluted from phenylsepharose column was analyzed by 5~15% polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis after concentrated with the Amicon membrane (YM10). That revealed two bands corresponding to 60 and 65 kGy by silver staining of the gel, respectively.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the biodegradation characteristics of swine and cattle using anaerobic batch tests. The results showed that the maximum methane production rate($MPR_{max}$) and acclimation time(AT) of swine were 46.7 mL $CH_4/g$ VS.d and 17.2 d, respectively. The $MPR_{max}$ and AT of cattle were 56.5% and 24.0% lower than those of swine. The characteristics of anaerobic biodegradation varied with livestock species but $MPR_{max}$ and AT increased linearly with the content of lipid. The $MPR_{max}$ and AT of cattle with content of lipid were more sensitive than those of swine.

  • New electroluminescent polymers with fluoro groups in vinylene units, poly(m-silylphenyl-p-phenylene-difluorovinylene) (m-SiP-PPDFV) have been synthesized by GILCH polymerization. These polymers have been used as the electroluminescent (EL) layers in single layer light-emitting diodes (LEDs) (ITO/PEDOT/polymer/Ca:Al). m-SiP-PPDFV shows PL around $\lambda_{max}$ = 452 nm and green EL around $\lambda_{max}$ = 497 nm. The current-voltage-luminance (I-V-L) characteristics of the polymers show turn-on voltages of 4.0 V approximately. Two fluoro groups were introduced on every vinylene units of m-SiP-PPV to give m-SiP-PPDFV in an attempt to increase the electron affinity of the parent polymer, and the devices show an increased color stability even with vinylene units. The color stability is attributed to the electron-withdrawing effect of the fluoro groups, which protect vinylene units from oxidation in PPV derivatives. We believe that fluoro groups can be introduced in vinylene units in order to attain excellent stability of PPV derivatives.

  • 5-HT$_{2C}$ receptors have been considered as therapeutic targets for the treatment of various central nervous system disorders such as depression, anxiety, epilepsy, schizophrenia and sleep disorders. We chemically synthesized KKHQ80109 (K09) and KKHQ80114 (K14), selective 5-HT$_{2C}$ agonists, with the purpose of developing therapeutic agents for the treatment of obesity. The objective of this work is to investigate pharmacokinetic parameters and bioavailability of K09 and K14 in rats given orally or intravenously. Oral administration of 20 mg/kg K09 results in 4.11 hr of the terminal half-life and 89.16 ng/mL of C$_{max}$ at 5.00 hr (T$_{max}$). The terminal half-life of K14 was 3.83 hr with 215.81 ng/mL of C$_{max}$ at 3.33 hr (T$_{max}$) after oral dosing of 20 mg/kg K14, indicating that K14 is more rapidly absorbed than K09. Bioavailability showed 0.17-0.21 for K09 and 0.19-0.23 for K14. Urinary excretion of parent K09 and K14 was less than 1%, indicating that K09 and K14 undergo very extensive hepatic metabolism.
