In a case of an automobile rear-end collision, scale of the collision which are the extent of vehicle damage and the injury of the passenger is affected by the speed change. Based on the photographic interpretation of the actual accident cases in the Seoul and the Incheon area, this study measured the depth of crush and calculated the speed change from the statement data of the accident and speed, and also injury data such as diagnosis, hospitalization days are collected. The period of hospitalization and diagnostics claimed proves to have no statistical correlation with the depth of vehicle crush and speed change. Based on the statistical analysis from this study and previous foreign studies, we found that there have been 78.1% of personal accidents didn't reach the injury threshold. There should be objective information on the scale of accident accepting the claims-to-be-injured in the future, and application of injury threshold level suggested are considered to be very useful.

Most bacteria form biofilm as self-defence system, making efficient food sanitization, preservation, and instrument washing more difficult. Biofilm formation of Salmonella, E. coli, B. cereus, and S. aureus was observed during 24 hr food preservations by performing microtiter plate and glass wool assays. Most cells formed biofilm and attached onto glass wool. When biofilm formation and injury were analyzed on the microtiter plate, 10 and 20% acid-injured E. coli and S. aureus, respectively, 30-50% cold temperature $(4^{\circ}C)-injured$ B. cereus and E. coli, and 30-55% 6% sodium chloride solution-injured Salmonella showed significant biofilm formation. Results indicate biofilm formation level differed within species depending on type of stress.

교통사고로 인하여 정형외과를 찾는 환자 중 60%정도가 경추부 상해 때문이나 이에 대한 보호장구개발은 미흡한 실정에 있다. 자동차 충돌사고시의 경추부 상해는 대 부분이 후면 충돌로부터 기인하며 특히 차체의 변형이 적은 저속충돌시에도 경추부의 연질 조직이 상하는 편차성 상해가 쉽게 발생된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 편타성 상 해를 보다 근본적으로 분석하기 위하여 활차 실험과 그에 대한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 결 과를 소개하였다. 현재 진행 중인 본 연구를 통하여 아직까지 규명되지 않은 경추부 의 하중 경로와 상해기구를 파악하고자 하며 이를 바탕으로 보다 인체공학적인 시트 설계에 필요한 기반 기술을 확보하고자 한다.

Recently, various research studies on frontal collision and rear-ender which occur more frequently compared to others are underway as the public interest on them is growing. This study analyzes scientifically the relationship between effective impact speed and injury incidence for vehicle crash accident reconstruction and presents a relevant model formula. Because real vehicle experiments have certain limitations such as possible injuries, this study efforts to collect and analyze as many materials as possible to substitute real vehicle experiments, including data from various collision tests and human experiments. As a result, this study present a threshold in which head-on collisions and rear impacts do not cause injuries under 7 km/h of effective impact speed, and suggests a model formula showing that injury extent is linearly proportional to effective impact speed through collision speed and amount of plastic deformation. In conclusion, a model formula for estimating effective impact speed and injury incidence newly proposed in this study is expected to be used as a minimum standard of judgment in disputes on the injury extent of passenger in head-on collisions and rear impacts. Furthermore its availability in terms of technological analysis in legal arguments is expected to be very high if this study will be enhanced by referring to scientific analyses of various real accidents so as to apply it in various types of collision accidents.

We have studied the effects of red ginseng root extract on the derease of MMS-induced gemotoxicity in cultured NIH3T3 cells. The increase in survival and the recovery from DNA synthesis inhibition in MMS-treated cells as a function of normal medium incubation time was potentiated, at a rate higher than those in UV-irradiated cells, by the presence of the ginseng extract. The extract also increased the MMS-induced excision repair as determined by unscheduled DNA synthesis. The amount of MMS-induced DNA single strand breads that are accumulated by polymerase inhibitors was increased, but as a rate lower rate than in UV-induced strand break, by the presence of the extract. These results suggest that the red ginseng extract increase MMS-induced repair and could be used as a reagent for protectiong alkylating agent-induced genotoxicity and cytotoxicity.

Ballistic impact on a soldier wearing a helmet can induce fatal injury, even if the helmet is not penetrated. Although studies on this type of injury have been performed, most of them have used an analytical model focused on head injury only. The injury of the neck muscles and cervical vertebrae by non-penetrating ballistic impact affects the survivability of soldiers, despite not inflicting fatal injury to the human body. Therefore, an analytical model of the head and neck muscles are necessary. In this study, an analysis of human body injury using the previously developed head model, as well as a cervical model with muscles, was performed. For the quantitative prediction of injury, the stress, strain, and HIC were compared. The results from the model including the cervical system indicated a lower extent of injury than the results from the model excluding them. The results of head injury were compared with other references for reliability.

청과물은 품종, 재배기술, 환경의 요인 등에 영향을 받아 품질, 형상, 색택, 병충해의 상해정도가 다르게 나타남에 따라 농산물의 다양한 상품성이 결정된다. 또한 수확, 저장, 포장. 수송, 상하차 등 유통과정에서의 취급여하에 따라 기계적으로 손상을 받음은 물론 유통기간이 길어짐에 따라 호흡 및 증산작용 등 생리적 작용으로 부패 및 변질이 진행되어 유통과정 중 농산물의 품질저하가 상당한 수준에 이르고 있으나, 이에 대한 관심은 매우 빈약한 실정이다. (중략)

The S-phase checkpoint mechanisms response to DNA damage or inhibition of DNA replication for maintenance of genetic stability in eukaryotic cells. These roles include cell cycle control arrest at S-phase and Iranscriptional induction of repair genes. To characterize the defects of dpbll mutant for both these responses, we examined the over-expression effect of DPBll gene, the sensitivity to HU, MMS, and the transcriptional pattern by DNA damage agent for RNRS mRNA. RNRS transcript is induced in response to a wide variety of agents that either damage D7A directly through chemical modification or induce stress by blocking DNA synthesis. As results, dpbll-1 cells are sensitive to DNA damage agents and the level of RNR3 mRNA is reduced approximately 40% than wild type cells. Moreover, we found the same results in dpb2-1 cells. Therefore, we propose that DPB2 and DPBll act as a sensor of replication that coordinates the transcriptional and cell cycle responses to replication blocks.

This study examines stock market co-movement among three China stock markets: Shanghai stock market, Shenzhen stock market, Hongkong stock market. US stock market leads three China stock markets and Honkong stock market leads Shanghai and Shenzhen stock market. But there are no lead-lag effects among China stock markets after controlling US stock market effect. These results could be important for the investors and firms that are interested in China stock markets.
