This study has been carried out to estimate mean concentration and the daily intake of 2 artificial sweeteners (aspartame and sucralose) by analyzing food samples. Total number of samples was 755 and the number of samples detected for sweeteners was 33 (detection rate was 4.4%). Contribution rate to total estimated daily intake (%) of artificial sweeteners in food categories was high in candy for aspartame and sucralose. Total Estimated Daily Intakes $({\Sigma}EDI)$ for different age groups were high in $13{\sim}19$ years old for aspartame and $7{\sim}12$ years old for sucralose. Total estimated daily intakes $({\Sigma}EDI)$ of men and women were 5.10 mg/person/day and 4.88 mg/person/day, respectively. Total estimated daily intakes $({\Sigma}EDI)$ of artificial sweeteners were shown as follows; 3.75 mg/person/day for aspartame and 1.27 mg/person/day for sucralose, respectively and assuming a body weight of 55 kg. These values were ranged from $0.15{\sim}0.17%$ of acceptable daily intake (ADI) evaluated by FAO/WHO and $1.0{\sim}21.4%$ of theoretical maximum daily intake (TMDI), and therefore, judged to be safe.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to compare patient's body posture and its position at the time of simulation with one at the treatment room using On-board Imaging (OBI) and CT (CBCT). The detected offsets are compared with position errors of Rando Phantom that are practically applied. After that, Rando Phantom's position is selected by moving couch based on detected deviations. In addition, the errors between real measured values of Rando Phantom position and theoretical ones is compared. And we will evaluate target position's accuracy of KV X-ray imaging's 2D and CBCT's 3D one. Materials and Methods: Using the Rando Phantom (Alderson Research Laboratories Inc. Stanford. CT, USA) which simulated human body's internal structure, we will set up Rando Phantom on the treatment couch after implementing simulation and RTP according to the same ways as the real radioactive treatment. We tested Rando Phantom that are assumed to have accurate position with different 3 methods. We measured setup errors on the axis of X, Y and Z, and got mean standard deviation errors by repeating tests 10 times on each tests. Results: The difference between mean detection error and standard deviation are as follows; lateral 0.4+/-0.3 mm, longitudinal 0.6+/-0.5 mm, vertical 0.4+/-0.2 mm which all within 0~10 mm. The couch shift variable after positioning that are comparable to residual errors are 0.3+/-0.1, 0.5+/-0.1, and 0.3+/-0.1 mm. The mean detection errors by longitudinal shift between 20~40 mm are 0.4+/-0.3 in lateral, 0.6+/-0.5 in longitudinal, 0.5+/-0.3 in vertical direction. The detection errors are all within range of 0.3~0.5 mm. Residual errors are within 0.2~0.5 mm. Each values are mean values based on 3 tests. Conclusion: Phantom is based on treatment couch shift and error within the average 5mm can be gained by the diminution detected by image registration based on OBI and CBCT. Therefore, the selection of target position which depends on OBI and CBCT could be considered as useful.

적혈구(赤血球) 수명의 측정에는 $^{51}Cr$-표지적혈구법(標識赤血球法)이 임상적(臨床的)으로 이용(利用)되고 있으며 이는 이론상(理論上) steady state 즉(卽) 측정기간(測定期間)동안 순환(循環) $^{51}Cr$량(量)-적혈구량(赤血球量)이 일정(一定)할 때에 한(限)하여 유효(有效)하며 unsteady state 때는 true red cell survival을 알기 위하여서는 측정치에 영향을 주는 요인(要因)에 대하여 각각(各各) 교정(校正)해 줄 필요(必要)가 있다. 이 요인(要因)중에 특히 실혈(失血)로 인(因)한 영향에 관(關)하여는 계통적인 연구(硏究)가 적다. 이에 저자(著者)들은 $^{51}Cr$표지적혈구법(標識赤血球法)을 이용(利用)하여 실혈(失血)이 적혈구(赤血球) 수명측정(測定)에 미치는 영향을 인체(人體)에서 실험 관찰하여 몇가지 성적을 얻었다. 연구대상(硏究對象)은 총(總) 56명(名)의 청장년(靑壯年)으로 급성실혈군(急性失血群)과 만성실혈군(慢性失血群)으로 구분(區分)하여 급성실혈군(急性失血群)은 위장출혈등(胃腸出血等)이 없는 2대(代)의 의대생(醫大生)으로 $^{51}Cr$표지적혈구법(標識赤血球法)을 사용하여 적혈구(赤血球) 수명을 측정하는 동안($10{\sim}14$ 일간(日間)) 1일당(日當) 10ml(6명(名)), 25ml(4명(名)), 50ml(4명(名)), 75ml(4명(名)), 100ml(6명(名))를 각각(各各) 사혈(瀉血)한 군(群)과 10일간(日間) 1,000ml를 사혈한 군(群) 즉 200ml씩 5회(回)(4명(名)), 500ml씩 2회(回)(4명(名))로 세분(細分)하였으며 만성실혈군(慢性失血群)은 직업적인 공혈자(供血者)로 반복사혈로 생긴 9명(名)의 빈혈자와 십이지장충증(十二指腸蟲症)에 감염(感染)되어 구충(驅蟲)한 중등도(中等度)의 철결핍성 빈혈환자 7명(名)으로 나누어 관찰하였다. 측정(測定) 방법(方法)으로는 Gray 및 Sterling법(法)을 개설한 방법(方法)으로 $^{51}Cr$표지적혈구(標識赤血球)의 계측시료(計測試料)로서 전혈(全血) 및 적혈구(赤血球)를 사용(使用)하였다. 실험(實驗)성적은 1. 1일당(日當) 실혈량(失血量)이 증가(增加)할수록 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)은 짧아짐을 알 수 있었다. 즉(卽) 1일당(日當) $20{\sim}50ml$ 사혈군에서는 $T\frac{1}{2}$이 현저히 짧아지는 rapid phase을 나타내고 1일당(日當) 50ml이상(以上) 사혈군에서는 짧아지는 정도(程度)가 완만한 slow phase을 나타낸다(Fig. 6). 2. 1일량(日量) 10ml 및 25ml식(式) 사혈한 군(群)의 적혈구수명(赤血球壽命)을 측정(測定)하는데 있어 적혈구(赤血球)를 사용하였을 때에는 $T\frac{1}{2}$측 정치에 유의한 차(差)가 없었으며 이 범위 내에서는 Hct., Hb. 및 혈청철치(血淸鐵値)도 역시 유의한 차(差)가 없었다. 3. 1일량(日量) 50ml 및 75ml, 100ml씩 사혈한 군(群)에서는 적혈구(赤血球)만을 사용(使用)하였을 때와 전혈(全血)을 시료(試料)로 하였을 때 사이에 $T\frac{1}{2}$의 측정치에 유의한 차(差)가 있었으며 이 때는 Hct., Hb. 및 혈청철치(血淸鐵値)에도 변화(變化)가 있었다. 즉(卽), 전혈(全血)을 사용한 적혈구(赤血球) 수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)의 측정치가 적혈구(赤血球)만를 사용(使用)한 적혈구(赤血球) 수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)의 측정치 보다 짧았다. 4. 일정(一定)기간(10 일(日)) 사혈의 총량(1000ml)이 같을 매는 200ml를 5회(回) 사혈한 군(群)이나 500ml를 2회(回) 사혈한 군(群) 사이에 적혈구(赤血球) 수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)에 유의(有義)한 차(差)를 볼 수 없었다. 5. 직업적 공혈자의 반복사혈로 인(因)한 만성(慢性) 빈혈환자 9명(名)에서의 $^{51}Cr$적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$) 측정치는 평균(平均) 19.2일(日)로 짧아져 있으나 적혈구수명측정전후(赤血球壽命測定前後)에 충분(充分)한 철제(鐵劑)를 투여(投與)하여 Hct., Hb. 및 혈청철치(血淸鐵値)를 증가(增加)시켰으며 이때 볼 수 있었든 Hct치(値)를 규준(規準)하여 교정한 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)은 거의 정상(正常)범위 안에 있어(27.6일(日)) 이러한 인자(因子)를 고려하지 않으면 잘못 이해할 수가 있다. 6. 구충자충(鉤蟲仔蟲)을 구충한 7명(名)의 중등도(中等度) 철(鐵)결핍성 빈혈환자에서의 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$) 측정치는 25일(日)$\sim$31일(日)로 평균(平均) 28일(日)이었으며, 이때 장 출혈량은 1일(日) $1.0{\sim}3.5ml$이었다. 단시일내의 급성실혈시에는 이와같은 소량의 실혈(失血)도 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$) 측정치에 영향을 보여 줌을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 이러한 정도의 실혈은 실험오차에 기인하는 것인지 아니면 장기 출혈에서는 이러한 소량의 실혈이 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$) 측정에 영향을 미치지 않는 것인지는 아직 확실히 말할 수 없다. 8. $^{51}Cr$-표지적혈구(標識赤血球)로 측정한 적혈구(赤血球)수명($T\frac{1}{2}$)은 측정시의 실혈량(失血量)에 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있으며 저자(著者)들은 $^{51}Cr$표지적혈구(標識赤血球)를 이용(利用)한 적혈구(赤血球) 수명 측정때 검사기간중 실혈량이 적혈구수명치(赤血球壽命値)에 미치는 관계를 상술(上述)한 실험치(實驗値)를 기초(基礎)로 하여 다음과 같을 교정식(校正式)을 고찰(考察)해 보았다. $^{51}Cr\;T\frac{1}{2}=17.0e^{-0.0495}+18.4e^{-0.000924x}$ 단(但) X : 1일(日) 실혈량(失血量)(단위(單位) ml)

Purpose: To determine the electronic spin relaxation times, $T_{le}$, of three commercially available Gd-chelated MR contrast agents, Gd-DTPA, Gd-DTPA-BMA and Gd-DOTA, using Electron Paramagnetic Resonance(EPR) technique. Material and Methods: The paramagnetic MR contrast agents, Gd-DTFA(Magnevist) , Gd-DTFA-BMA(OMNISCAN) and Gd-DOTA(Dotarem), were used for this study, The EPR spectra of these contrast agents, which were prepared 2:1 methanol/water solution, were obtained at low temperatures, from $-160^{\circ}C~20^{\circ}C$. The glassy-state EPR spectra for these contrast agents were then fitted by the simulation spectra generated with different zero-field splitting (ZFS) parameters by a computer simulation program 'GEN', which generates the EPR powder spectrum using a given ZFS in $3{\times}3$ tensor. Finally, the spin relaxation times of the contrast agents were then determined from the $T_{2e}$, D, and E values of the best simulation spectra using the McLachlan's theory of average relaxation rate. Results: The electronic transverse spin relaxation times, $T_{2e}'s$, of Gd-DTPA, Gd-DTPA-BMA and Gd-DOTA were 0.113ns, 0.147ns and 1.81ns respectively. The g-values were 1.9737, 1.9735 and 1.9830 and the electronic spin relaxation times, $T_{1e}'s$, were 18.70ns, 33.40ns and $1.66{\mu}s$, respectively. Conclusion: The results of these studies reconfirm that the paramagnetic MR contrast agents with larger ZFS parameters should have shorter $T_{1e}'s$. Among three contrast agents used for this study, Gd-DOTA chelated with cyclic ligand structure shows better electronic property then the others with linear structure. Thus, it is concluded that the exact determination of ZFS parameters is the important factor in evaluating relaxation enhancement effect of the agents and in developing new contrast agents.

Color qualities investigated on the basis of Munsell code and Korean standard color code for the cocoons from various strain of mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mori. 16 of different color qualities were identified from 21 of original silworm strains, and determinated international name with the revision of Korean color name for cocoon. The various cocoon color confirmed on the sphere from 567 to 593 nm wavelength, 78% of those located at the region about 580 nm (575~584) of sensitive "color difference limen". Y gene engaged broad ranges of wavelength (575~593 nm) in the color expression, by contrast with other genes of Pk (593 nm), F (584~593), Grc and relative G group (567~570 nm), on the transmission of carotenoid or flavonoid color substance. YC gene expression by original silk worm strain was also distinguished by those variation of specific yellow than other colors from Grc, GaGb, Gc, and YPkF. Appearance of chrome yellow cocoon was dominant than other yellow in the cross among vivid yellow group. F1 of pin${\times}$green produced the cocoon of yellow such as "additive mixture" as color light, however, most of the hybrid between yellow cocoon showed the color similar to "subtractive mixture" as a mixture of dyestuff. Hybrid cocoons among yellow or green colors were decreased their hue, value, and chroma, than those of parent. Diallel cross among the strain of various green cocoon suggest the existence of Grc, Ga, Gb, Gc genes. Cream colored cocoon of B. mandarina was differed from other yellow cocoon of Bobyx mori B. mori. Y$^A$ with Ymc showed the similar role of Y with C, therefore, segregated yellow cocoon from the B. mori${\times}$B. mandarina (+$^YC/Y^AYmc$). YC expression of $Y^AY$mc genes might be suppressed by deficiency of outer layer sericin on the middle division of silk giand in the B. mandarina.

The Study takes the rivers in Zhouzhuang - traditional Chinese Kangnam watery landscape as the object. The purpose of this study is to grasp the relationships between visual characteristics and the preference. The following is the research process: Firstly, the theoretical study of Zhouzhuang, the traditional Kangnam region in China, is conducted, the watery landscape is taken pictures, and 22 photos are selected. Secondly, in order to grasp the visual preference and landscape characteristics of the watery landscape in Zhouzhuang, 22 pictures and 25 pairs of adjectives are adopted for the questionnaire survey. Thirdly, in order to have a better understanding on the physical properties and effects of physical quantity on the preference, the occupation ratios of buildings and sculptures, natural elements, footpaths, bank revetments and other landscape elements are calculated, and the mean analysis, dispersion analysis and regression analysis are conducted. In order to grasp the landscape characteristics and preference factors, 25 pairs of adjectives are used to conduct the factor analysis. In order to grasp the effects of characteristics of visual factors on the preference, the dispersion analysis and regression analysis are carried out. The results are as follows: From the results of the landscape preference analysis, in the No.22 photo with the top preference, 11 pairs of adjectives, namely, "harmonious-disharmonious", "beautiful-ugly", "rural-urban", "soft-rough", "stable-instable", "romantic-realistic", "cheerful-gloomy", "brilliant-simple", "natural-artificial", "familiar-strange", and "clean-dirty" have positive effects on watery landscape. It can be viewed as the relatively important factor in the visual preference. In terms of the results of visual physical quantity analysis of traditional Chinese Kangnam watery landscape, the landscape with high occupation ratio of buildings and sculptures has positive effects on visual preference. The results of analysis of visual physical quantity and preference show that the preference degree increases as the occupation ratio of footpath area increases. The analysis results of visual characteristics of traditional Chinese Kangnam watery landscape identify four factors, namely psychological factor, cultural factor, condition factor and physical factor. It can be concluded from the results of analysis of the relationships between visual preference and visual characteristics that the return coefficient B of the psychological factor is +0.936. It can significantly affect the watery landscape, so it can be identified as the most important factor among the visual preference factors of Chinese Kangnam watery landscape.
