Cooked rices were frozen at four different rates(3, 5, 7 and 12 hr) of maximum ice crystal formation zone and stored at $-20^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C$ for 3 months. Freezing rate, storage temperature and storage period all affected the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. As the maximum ice crystal formation zone increased from 3 hrs to 12 hrs, the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice increased from 14.9% to 40.0%. Further retrogradation occurred during the freezing storage and cooked rice stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ retrograded faster than that held at $-70^{\circ}C$. The hardness and adhesiveness of frozen cooked rice thawed in $40^{\circ}C$ water were measured. Hardness of the frozen cooked rice was higher than that of non-frozen sample and was higher at lower freezing rate. However, the hardness of cooked rice decreased after 3 months of storage. On the other hand, the adhesiveness decreased during the freezing processing, and adhesiveness decreased more rapidly at a higher freezing rate. However, the adhesiveness of cooked rice increased after 3 months of the storage, and the level of decrease was higher at $-70^{\circ}C$ than at $-20^{\circ}C$. After 3 months of storage, ice crystal size of frozen cooked rice became larger by recrystalization than that of frozen sample prior to storage. Microstructure of cooked rice was damaged by ice crystal formation and its growth when observed by scanning electron microscope.

Considering the reality that the baby boom generation which takes up 15% of the Korean population enters the old age, this study aimed to investigate level and factors affecting successful aging of the baby boom generation. The theory this study used is Rowe & Kahn, and the data it used are from 2,577 persons combining respondents of the fifth basic survey and the special survey of Korean Longitudinal Study of Ageing. This study utilized IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 20.0 for analysis, and the main results of this study were as follows. First, successful aging level of the baby boom generation was $6.36{\pm}1.39$(range: 0~9), proving that they consider their aging as successful. However, depending on sub-factors of successful aging, proportion that they viewed themselves as successfully aging were quite different. Second, examination of factors affecting successful aging of the generation found out that pocket money, educational level, and child-parents relationship satisfaction are important. By applying the theory of Rowe & Kahn which can be called the representative model of successful aging, this study examined successful aging and extracted some suggestions for future researches.

Objective : The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of successful intervention program on SOC strategy and successful aging of the elderly. Methods : Three elderly individuals aged ${\geq}65$ living in W-si, Gangwon-do, were included. A successful aging program using an SOC strategy was conducted twice a week for 6 sessions. To verify the effectiveness of the program, the Korean versions of the SOC scale and the successful aging scale were used. Descriptive statistics were used for general characteristics, and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare successful aging and SOC strategies. Results : After 3 weeks for successful aging program, the SOC strategy levels of the subjects were constant or improved. In addition, the average score of successful aging level increased by 11.4 points. Conclusion : This study show that the successful aging program using the SOC strategy improved the level of SOC strategy and the level of successful aging. The results of this study can be used as basic data to develop programs that can promote SOC strategy and successful aging. Also, the result of this study can be used as a basic data for the development of guidelines for occupational therapists in the future.

노화란 무엇이며 왜 일어나는 것이며, 노화되면 어떻게 되는가에 대하여 많은 연구가 되어 왔지만 아직도 모르는 부분이 많은 것 같다. 우리 몸의 중요기관의 기능은 30세부터 점차 기능이 떨어지면서 늙으면 청년기의 거의 반으로 떨어진다. 늙으면 심장, 폐의 기능뿐만 아니라 활동력도 젊은 때보다 급격히 떨어지며 저작력도 마찬가지로 떨어진다. 본란에서는 주로 청년기이후에 나타나는 조직의 변화를 설명코저 하며, 노화에 따른 구강조직의 변화를 이해함으로서 구강건강을 유지시키고, 노인환자의 성공적인 치료에 도움이 되리라고 생각한다.

나이, 자외선 등 내외적인 여러 가지 스트레스에 의해 일어나는 피부노화 현상은 피부두께의 변화오 함께 세포수 감소 및 피부 신진대사 저하, 생체결합수 손실을 비롯하여 콜라겐, 엘라스틴 등을 세포간물질 감소로 인해 피부속이 바람 빠진 공처럼 함몰되고 골이 생겨 결국 주름지고 거칠은 피부표면의 형태로 나타난다. 피부 노화 현상에 대한 여러 가지 기능적, 구조적 변화를 살피고 피부노화를 억제하기 위한 화장품의 역할과 연구 동향을 살펴 본다.

65세 이상 총인구가 차지하는 비율이 14% 이상을 고령사회라고 한다. 우리나라는 지난해 이 비율이 8.7%에서 2019년에는 14.4%, 2026년에는 20%를 넘어 초고령사회로 진입할 것으로 예상되고 있다. 이러한 초고령 사회에서 노화와 이에 따른 질병은 개인에 있어서는 궁극적인 삶의 질 하락을, 국가에 있어서는 엄청난 재정 부담과 함께 국가 경제력 하락을 초래한다. 그러나 '99세까지 88하자(구구팔팔)'는 질병 없는 행복한 장수는 결코 꿈이 아니다. 지난 수십년간의 연구를 통해 노화의 원인들이 속속 밝혀지고 있기 때문이다. 월간 '과학과 기술'은 '노화'를 주제로 이번 2월호부터 10회에 걸쳐 연재한다.

노화는 질병이 아니라 모든 생물이 본래 갖고 있는 하나의 과정이라고 산다. 노화연구는 우리를 자멸의 길로 끌어가는 「내부시게」론과 유전적인 실수와 공격으로 마침내 몸을 수리할 수 없을 정도가지 파괴한다는 주장 등 두개의 그룹으로 나눈다. 노화는 유전자 ,호르몬 ,분자 ,면역 조직반응 ,환경의 공격 그리고 일상적인 잘못을 포함하여 수십가지의 얼키고 설킨 과정이다. 이러한 노화를 막고 사람의 수명을 연장할 수는 없는가 실제로 인류는 지난 한세기동안 깨끗한 물과 백신과 같은 개량된 공중보건 덕택에 평균수명이 47세에서 79세로 2배나 늘어났다.

건강하고 깨끗한 피부, 주름 없는 피부를 간직하고 살 수 있는 비결은 피부를 어떻게 고나리하느냐에 달려있다. 이제까지 우리는 피부 노화가 단지 나이라는 어쩔 수 없는 현상이라고만 생각한 채 체념해 왔지만 피부 노화의 주된 요인은 가는 세월이 아니라 햇빛(자외선)과 피부에 대한 무관심이라 할 수 있다. 건강도 건강할 때 지키라는 말이 있듯이 피부도 젊었을 때 더 늙지 않도록 관리하면 나이보다 훨씬 젊은 얼굴로 살아갈 수 있다. 이번 9월호 특집에서는 S&Y피부과 여운철 원장과 경희의료원 피부과 이무형 교수의 도움말로 '피부 노화'에 대해 자세히 알아 본다.

Human tissue undergoes aging by the oxidant damage via structural change and its physical properties. The skin aging process is well known and many evaluations have been conducted. However, studies on hair aging were relatively few and thus care for aging hair is difficult. This study aims to fabricate an aging hair and identify anti-aging effect with known ingredient in anti-aging. First of all, physical properties of aging hair of age 60s by physiologically intrinsic factors were compared to those of the hair made by various extrinsic factors such as several chemical reactions and iteration numbers of the treatments. The extrinsic aging hair of this study relates to the less amount of lipid and to the hair of perm treated once accordingly, wherein several physical properties, preferably comprise roughness and tensile strength, present a novel concept of the intrinsic aging hair. The penetration of peptide into the aging hair was leading the extrinsic hair towards more structurally directed a younger hair. In addition to the structural change, the penetration of the peptide enhanced texture and tensile strength of the aging hair. These patterns have been also found in addition of propolis. For the first time, these qualitative studies exhibit that indeed our extrinsic aging hair well describes the anti-aging efficacy as a receptor for a cross-linker and the ingredients of human hair.

In all female mammals, reproductive system is one of the first biological systems to show age-related decline. Female mammals in reproductive aging, though the phenomena is somewhat species-specific, start to show declining fertility and changes of numerous physiological functions. This review will present a current information on the aging of the female reproductive hormonal axis and introduce three useful rodent models for studying this field. Middle age($8{\sim}12$ months old) in female rats and mice is comparable to the stage prior to the entry of menopause in human. In this period pulsatile and surge GnRH secretion from hypothalamus gradually attenuated, then reduced pulsatile and surge LH secretion is followed consequently. This age-related defects in GnRH-LH neuroendocrine axis seem to be highly correlated with the defects in brain signals which modulate the activities of GnRH neuron. Many researchers support the idea which the age-related hypothalamic defects are the main cause of reproductive aging, but some ovarian factors such as inhibin response also could contribute to the induction of reproductive senescence. Some rodent models are quite valuable in studying the reproductive aging. The follitropin receptor knockout(FORKO) mice, both of null and haploinsufficient state, could produce depletion of oocyte/follicle with age. Dioxin/aryl hydrocarbon receptor(AhR) knockout mice also show severe ovarian defects and poor reproductive success early in their life compared to the age-matched normal mice. Further studies on the reproductive aging will be a great help to evaluate the benefits and risks of hormone replacement therapy(HRT) and to improve the safety of HRT.
