Background: Neovascular glaucoma is common secondary glaucoma at high risk for failure of glaucoma filtering surgery. Recently, trabeculectomy with adjunctive mitomycin C trabeculectomy has been tried to improve the surgical success rate of conventional trabeculectomy. But, the long-term effects of mitomycin C trabeculectomy for neovascular glaucoma are unknown. Thus, we evaluated the long-term effects of mitomycin C trabeculectomy and its prognostic factors influencing the outcome. Materials and Methods: Medical records of 62 eyes of 55 neovascular glaucoma who had undergone mitomycin C trabeculectomy were retrospectively reviewed. Surgical success was defined as intraocular pressures of 21 mmHg or less with or without glaucoma medications and no loss of light perception. Surgical failure was defined as postoperative loss of light perception in patients with preoperative vision better than light perception, additional glaucoma surgery, or phthisis bulbi in patients with preoperative vision of no light perception. Results: Postoperative success was obtained in 37 (60%) out of 62 eyes after mean followup period of $23.9{\pm}16.2$ months. Using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, cumulative success rate at the 6-, 12-, 24- and 36-month intervals were 85%, 71%, 57% and 52%, respectively. Success rate was greater in eyes with diabetic retinopathy than other causes(p=0.005) and in eyes with preoperative panretinal photocoagulation(PRP) than without PRP(p=0.015). However, Cox proportional hazard regression analysis revealed that preoperative PRP was not a significant risk factor for surgical failure. Conclusion: Prognosis of neovascular glaucoma caused by diabetic retinopathy was better than that caused by the other disorders following mitomycin C trabeculectomy. The author would suggest that mitomycin C trabeculectomy could be effective and relatively safe as the first procedure of choice before performing glaucoma drainage device implantation or cyclodestructive procedure.

To determine the optimum coagulants concentrations for preparing soybean-curds, the transmittance of soybean-curd whey using spectrophotometer has been measured. The textural properties of soybean-curds were examined by texture analyzer and sensory evaluations. The general components, oligosaccharides and amino acids in soybean-curd wheys were analyzed. Protein patterns of soybean-curd wheys comparing with soyflour and soymilk were investigated. By texture analyzer, hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and gumminess of Cacl$_2$ soybean-curd, MgCl$_2$ soybean-curd were higher than those of CaSO$_4$ soybean-curd and GDL soybean-curd. In the sensory evaluations, CaSO$_4$ soybean-curds and GDL soybean-curds were smoother and moister than others. Glutamic acid and aspartic acid were the first two abundant amino acids in three kinds of soybean-curd wheys, but arginine was the most abundant amino acid in GDL soybean-curd whey. Total sugar content of soybean-curd wheys were about 12-13 g/l, and the main sugars among 5 kinds of sugars were sucrose and raffinose. Electrophoresis using SDS-PAGE showed that glycinin and P-conglycinin, the main proteins of soybean appeared in soy flour and soymilk, and only low molecular weight subunits appeared in soybean-curd wheys.

We report a case of an angiosarcoma arising from the subclavian artery, a site not previously described. A 19-year-old girl, born with a rudimentary first rib, has been suffered from arterial thoracic outlet syndrome due to a complete occlusion of the third portion of the subclavian artery for 1 year. Partial claviculectomy, excision of completely occluded arterial segment, and reconstruction with great r saphenous vein graft were done. Histologic study for the subclavlan artery revealed mural type anglosarcoma. The histochemici1 staining for factor VIII related antigen was positive. The debilitating symptoms that did not allow her a normal daily life, almost subsided postoperatively. And she has remained well with no clinical evidence of disease for 4 months post-operation.

Among the many foods, it is hard to find perfect food with nutrition and functionality like beans. Korean food culture is the main ingredient of korean culture, kochujang, soybean paste, and soy sauce, and processed soybean tofu is the main ingredient. Soybean meets high quality protein and fat, and it has excellent results in prevention and treatment of all kinds of diseases. Soybean food is becoming a new generation health food. In countries where animal protein intake is low, soybean is used as a protein source instead of animal protein. Tofu, a processed food, is a complete food with high digestibility. In order to publicize the superiority of soybean nutritional value, Tofu processing and powder were investigated by observing the size, shape and characteristics of bean powder using domestic soybeans and imported soybean, and the variation of the amount of coagulant.

리포좀은 1960년대 초 Bangham등에 의해 혈액응고시 인지질의 영향에 관한 연구 중 우연히 발견하게 되었다. 즉 인지질이 물에 분산되어 2 분자막 (Bilayer)을 형성함을 알았고, 이때 생긴 폐쇄소포체를 리포좀이라 하였다. 이러한 리포좀은 원형질 막이나 세포내의 소기관의 막과 유사한 구조를 갖고 있기 때문에 이것을 이용하여 생화학자나 생물리학자들은 생체막의 모델시스템으로 이용하여 생체막의 기능 연구에 널리 이용하여 왔다. 1970년 초반부터 리포좀을 이용한 약물의 생체내 공급(Drug Delivery System, DDS)에 대하여 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔고, 지금까지도 의약품외 전달매체로 이용할려고 많은 시도를 하고 있는 실정이다. 최근에는 리포좀을 이용하여 항원을 전달하는 면역보조제(Adjuvant System)로 이용하려는 시도를 하고 있다. 현재까지 리포좀을 이용한 상품들은 화장품과 임상용 진단시 약, DNA transfection system (Lipopectin)으로 활용되고 있다.

Perfluorobutyl ethylene(PFBE)은 유기용제 혼합물에 주로 사용되는 산업화학물질로 동물에게 경구, 피부, 눈 그리고 흡입 노출되는 경우 급성 독성이 매우 낮다. Perfluorobutyl ethylene을 흰쥐에게 하루 6시간, 일주일에 5일씩 2주간을 0, 500 ppm, 5,000 ppm, 50,000 ppm을 흡입 노출시킨 연구에서 최대무작용량(no-observed-adverse effect level, NOAEL)으로 500 ppm이 결정되었으며 5,000 pm에서는 단핵 백혈구가 약간 증가하였다. 50,000 ppm에서도 병리학적 변화는 없었다. 그 후의 흡입연구는 하루 6시간, 28일간 연속적으로 흰쥐 암수에게 400 ppm, 2,000 pm, 10,000 ppm의 농도로 perfluorobutyl ethylene 증기를 노출시켰다. 최종 노출 후 흰쥐를 희생시켜 관찰한 결과, 체내 기관 무게변화를 포함한 어떠한 변화도 관찰되지 않았다. 그러나 10,000 ppm에 노출된 수컷 흰쥐 5마리 중 4마리는 작은 다중간세포질 액포가 발견되었다. Perfluorobutyl ethylene 증기 10,000 ppm에 노출된 수컷 흰쥐는 부분적으로 평균 혈액응고 촉진 시간이 감소하였다. 이 연구에서는 최대무작용량을 2,000 ppm으로 결정하였다. Perfluorobutyl ethylene의 TLV-TWA 100 ppm은 노출 후 악영향을 최소화하는데 충분한 농도이며 "피부흡수(Skin)", "감작제(SEN)" 그리고 발암성에 대한 경고주석을 설정하기에는 유용한 연구가 충분하지 않다.

Full mold casting process is a new technique offering numerous advantages and promising possibilities. The present study is aimed to bring out the results of experiments carried out to study the effect of pattern coatings on the solidification of 99.5% pure aluminum plate-shaped castings in the various sand molds and the thermal behavior of the molds. The results of the investigation indicate that (i) with increase in pattern coating thickness, the relative chilling power decreases gradually for silica and increases for zircon coating, and (ii) the application of a pattern coating significantly reduces the maximum interface temperature by the mold which is more pronounced in the case of thinner mold wall. The investigation also indicates that Chvorinov's rule is not found to be valid for the casting in the full mold, with or without pattern coating. Therefore in full mold process, the pattern coating thickness will be a very important parameter in the study of thermal behavior.

발전설비를 비롯한 산업설비, 각종 압력용기 및 철구조물 제작시 발생하는 여러가지의 용접불량 중에서 슬래그 혼입이 차지하는 비율이 전체 불량의 절반 이상을 차지하고 있다. 특히 여타의 용접법에 비해 SMAW에 의한 슬래그 혼입의 발생이 가장 많으므로 이에 대한 결함 발생의 경향을 조사하고 그 방지대책을 설정하기 위하여 이번 실험을 실시하게 되었다. 수동 용접봉의 피복제 중 가스 발생 원인은 아아크 분위기를 생성하고 기타 부분은 슬래그가 되어 용융금속을 둘러싸서 이것을 보호하면서 용융지로 이행한다. 슬래그는 용융지 내에서 비이드 표면으로 부상하면서 탈산반응이나 불순물을 제거하는 정련작용을 한다. 또한 적당한 합금 원소의 보충, 용융금속의 유동성 증가 등에 의하여 양호한 용착금속의 생성을 돕는다. 한편, 슬래그는 고온금속을 덮어 이것을 보호함과 동시에 급냉을 완화하는 작용을 한다. 그러나 이러한 슬래그가 응고하는 용착금속 사이에 혼입된다면 용착금속의 기계적 성질을 저하시키는 중요한 요인이 된다. 슬래그 혼입에 대하여 간단하고 일반적인 방지대책은 많이 언급되어 있으나 슬래그 혼입의 방지대책에 대해 깊이 있는 연구가 거의 없다. 이번 실험에서는 광범위한 요인의 선제, 싯수의 제안으로 인하여 새로운 슬래그 혼입 기구의 설정이나 특정한 요인의 영향에 대한 정확한 한계치의 설정보다는 각 요인에 대한 정성적인 영향을 분석하였다.

Soy curd was prepared using imported soybean(U.S.grade A) and changes in quality were evaluated using different types and mixtures of coagulants(CaCl$_2$, CaSO$_4$, MgCl$_2$, MgSO$_4$, and glucono-$\delta$-lactone). Quality of soy curd was determined by rheological properties, yield, and color. Based upon the characteristics of each coagulant, mixtures of two coagulants were prepared in various ratios. The mixture of CaSO$_4$or MgCl$_2$with glucono-$\delta$-lactone(GDL), and that of CaSO$_4$or MgCl$_2$with MgSO$_4$resulted in soy curd of good quality in terms of rheological properties and yield.

Epoxy resins are produced by the dehydro condensated reaction with ECH (Epichlorohydrin) and BPA(Bisphenol-A) as raw reactants under sodium hydroxide(NaOH) as a catalyst, and from this reaction, salted water named of brine, which contains ECH derivatives in condition of emulsion as likely as glycidol and polymer resins, is produced as an undesired side product. This brine water is alkaline wastewater and causes process fouling problems by plugging and chemically depositing polymer particles on the surface of inner wall of reactors and pipes, and decreases the biodegradable efficiency in the wastewater process. In this study, the optimization of coagulation and sediment reactions, using inorganic and organic polymer coagulants, were performed to remove the causes occurring the process fouling phenomena. And also, based on this study, the methodologies applicable to the commercial processes including economical analysis were presented.
