Objective : To study the effectiveness of Yangkyuksanhawtang against Allergic Contact Dermatitis I observed the change of cutaneous shape, histochemistry, immunohistochemistry, and the distribution of apoptotic cells. materials and methods : I divided 4-month-old rats into three groups of 10, which are a contrastive group of having applied Acetone olive oil only, ACD group to have intentionally activated Allergic Contact Dermatitis by DNCB and YST group to give medication of Yangkyuksanhawtang extract. And I observed each group of mice after 24, 48 and 72 hours. results : 1. With the result of Contact hypersensitivity assay, YST group shows appreciably less ear swelling than ACD group. 2. Comparing YST and ACD groups to each other regarding general change of skin, YST group shows less hyperplasia of epidermis, less migration of inflammatory cells and less damage of epidermis than ACD group. 3. Regarding the change of collagen fiber, ACD group has appeared to be low in number of collagen fiber while YST shows similarity with the contrastive group. 4. In dermis YST group has showed lower number of mastocyte than ACD group and is granulated type. 5. In dermis YST group has showed less MAC-1, IL-1 , $IL-2R-\;{\alpha}$ G, ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 than ACD group. 6. The distribution of apoptotic cells has appeared littler in YST group than in ACD 7. Among signal molecule of apoptosis Bcl-2 has distributed more in YST group than ACD group and Bax and Fas has distributed less in YST group than ACD group.

Objectives : The aim of this study is to report the effect of Capsosiphon fulvescens(Maesangi) extract(MSE) on contact dermatitis(CD). Methods : CD induced by Dermatophagoides farinae body(Dfb) in NC/Nga mice. 4% sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) $150{\mu}l$ and Dfb(10mg/ml) ointment 100mg were topically treated twice a week for four weeks. MSE 200 mg/kg was topically treated every 4weeks. Every week, we examined the skin lesions, weight of spleen and lymph node, epidermal thickness, production of Tumor necrosis factor-alpha($TNF-{\alpha}$) and interleukin-6(IL-6). Results : MSE reduced features of Dfb-induced skin lesions, weight of spleen and production of $TNF-{\alpha}$. MSE significantly reduced weight of lymph node, epidermal thickness, number of mast cells and production of IL-6. Conclusions : MSE may have a potential therapeutic effects for CD by suppressing allergic inflammation.

To evaluate whether chaff vinegar liquor (CVL) has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms in mice, we tested the anti-allergic activities with a DNFB (dinitrofluorobenzene)-induced allergic mouse model. The DNFB-induced allergic symptoms were reduced by 20% compared to the control by chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with Perilla frutescens var. acuta. Allergic symptoms were examined by measuring the width of epidermis swelling. The hematoxyline & eosin (H&E) staining also revealed that the chaff vinegar liquor dramatically decreased the allergic symptoms in the epidermis of the ear. These results collectively suggest that the chaff vinegar liquor supplemented with P. frutescens var. acuta has potential in ameliorating allergic symptoms, showing that the liquor could be a useful biomaterial(s) for the nutraceutical or cosmetic industries.

To prevent contamination by Campylobacter jejuni during chicken carcass processing, the effect of emulsifiers on C. jejuni inoculated on chicken skin was investigated using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Among the 8 emulsifiers (SWA-10D, L-7D, M-7D, S-1670, L-1695, P-1670, polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80) tested for antimicrobial activity by the paper disk method, 4 emulsifiers (L-7D, L-1695, polysorbate 20, polysorbate 80) were screened further. Emulsifier L-1695 showed the largest clear zone at a concentration of 200 mg/mL. The 4 emulsifiers subjected to primary screening were screened for heat and pH stability. In the contact surface test, emulsifier L-1695 showed the lowest log CFU/㎠ value on both stainless steel and ceramic surfaces. When emulsifier L-1695 was applied via general and electrostatic spray methods, the number of C. jejuni entrapped inside chicken skin follicles was significantly reduced in both methods. In conclusion, the emulsifier L-1695 could be employed as a microbial detachment agent in the chicken carcass processing industry.

Objectives: In this study, we analyze statistics on industrial accidents caused by chemical skin contact and provide skin toxicity hazard information on the related domestic system and circulation volumes. Methods and Results: We analyzed occupational fatalities and skin diseases caused by chemical leaks and contact from 2007 to 2016(10 years) and surveyed data on occupational skin diseases using the 2014 work environment survey data. The NIOSH Skin Notation Profiles for 57 chemical substances, which are provided to prevent occupational skin diseases, were searched and hazard information on skin contact with chemical substances was classified. In order to identify skin toxicity information among domestically distributed and legally regulated substances and to investigate skin-toxic substances, MSDS basic data on 19,740 chemical substances provided on the homepage of Korea Occupational Safety & Health Agency were searched. Acute toxicity(dermal) category 1-4 substances totaled 1,020, and the number of chemical substances classified as category 1 and 2 substances were 135 and 137, respectively. In the chemical substances prescribed by the Ministry of Employment and Labor, 173 substances were classified into acute toxicity(dermal) categories 1-4, 58 of which correspond to category 1 or 2. Conclusions: Within the present range of industrial accidents, the proportion of skin diseases due to contact with chemicals is not high. However, there is always a risk of occupational skin diseases due to increasing chemicals and due to the use of new chemicals. It is hoped that this information will be used by workplace safety and health officials and health and safety experts to prevent acute toxity(dermal) due to chemical skin contact.

The authors surveyed the inhabitants of a rural area to assess the patterns of medical utilization on dermatoses. Seven hundred and sixty new outpatients of dermatoses were examined and surveyed with formed questionnaire from March 1997 to February 1999. The results are as follows; 1. Among 760 new outpatients, the number of male patients was 283(37.2%) and that of female patients was 477(67.3%). 2. The most common dermatoses was Tinea pedis(34.9%), and follows senile pruritus, contact dermatitis, housewife eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, numular dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, Tinea corporis, Tinea ungium, acne vulgaris, impetigo, keratolysis exfoliativa, chronic urticaria, Tinea cruris and Molluscum contagiosum in orders. 3. Drug store was the most frequent places where patients initially visited for their skin diseases(39.6%) and followed by non dermatologic clinic, dermatologic clinic and general hospital in orders. 4. One hundred and twenty one(15.9%) patients have been experienced folk treatment. It was founded that the topical vinegar application or soaking was the most common method. Many patients felt no symptom improvement after the folk treatment(48.8%). Seventeen point four percent of patient felt symptom worsened. The results of this study suggest that many of the rural inhabitants are lack of understanding on their dermatoses. So many physician who are in charge of the primary care in rural area have to pay attention to the common dermatoses and educate patients on their medical utilization.

금(Au) 및 금의 합금도금은 주로 극히 얇고 색상만 나타내는 정도의 장식용으로 많이 사용되고 있으나 단순한 장식품뿐만 아니고 스마트폰, 정보통신 서버, 전자기기, 자동차, 전지용에도 널리 사용되고 있다. 특히 로켓공업이나 인공위성의 와곽부, 엔진에는 필수적이다. 현재 미국의 금도금액 85%는 전자부품과 인공위성(NASA) 등의 공업용에 사용되고 있다. 금도금의 이용가치는 주로 내식성이며 전기저항이 작고 열전도성이 뛰어나 전기접전부에 필수적으로 사용해야만 한다. 또한 2007년 유럽의 RoHS규정에 의해 피부에 접촉하는 팔찌, 귀걸이, 목걸이, 반지 등의 디자인 액세서리 제품에 있어서도 종래의 6가 크롬이나, 납, 수은, 카드뮴 사용이 금지되었다. 종래의 산성, 알칼리성, 중성 금도금에서는 주로 시안(Cyan) 기반의 전처리 탈지액이 사용되고 있어 작업환경에도 유해하며 생산성 감소로 이어지고 있다. 이에 전해 금도금 전처리 탈지공정을 개선함으로써 품질불량 20%감소와 함께 작업환경 개선으로 생산성 30%향상을 기대할 수 있다.

본 연구는 비접촉식 센서 기반의 웨어러블 디바이스를 이용한 딥러닝 기반의 제스처 인식에 대한 연구이다. 이를 위하여 Flexible MSG 센서를 기반으로 한 Flexible Epidermal Tactile Sensor를 사용하였으며, Flexible Epidermal Tactile Sensor는 손, 손가락 제스처를 취했을 때 손목, 손가락과 연결되어 있는 근육들의 움직임에 따라 발생하는 피부 표면의 전극을 취득하는 센서이다. 실험을 위하여 7가지 손, 손가락 제스처를 정의하였으며, 손목의 꺾임, 손목의 뒤틀림, 손가락의 오므림과 펴짐, 아무 동작도 취하지 않은 기본 상태에 대한 제스처로 정의하였다. 실험 데이터 수집에는 손목이나 손가락에 부상, 장애등이 없는 일반적인 8명의 참가자가 참가하였으며 각각 한 제스처에 대하여 20번씩 반복하여 1120개의 샘플을 수집하였다. 입력신호에 대한 제스처를 학습하기 위해 본 논문에서는 1차원 Convolutional Neural Network를 제안하였으며, 성능 비교를 위해 신호의 크기를 반영하는 특징벡터인 Integral Absolute Value와 Difference Absolute Mean Value를 입력신호에서 추출하고 Support Vector Machine을 사용하여 본 논문에서 제안한 1차원 CNN과 성능비교를 하였다. 그 결과 본 논문에서 제안한 1차원 CNN의 분류 정확도가 우수한 성능을 나타냈다.
