In this study, we investigated on antioxidative activity, antibacterial activity against pathogens of acne and tyrosinase inhibitory activity in 75% EtOH extract and its fractions from bark of Prunus sargen tii. The total polyphenol and flavonoidcontent of the EtOAc fraction were found to be 378.0 mg/g and 67.5 mg/g as the highest content. In the measurement of DPPH radical scavenging ability, EtOAc and BuOH fraction were exhibited stronger scavenging ability than the other fractions and 75% EtOH extract. In antibacterial activity by disc diffusion assay against pathogen of acne, antibacterial activity of the EtOAc fraction and 75% EtOH extract was stronger than the other fractions. Especially, the EtOAc fraction was the highest effective fraction in the antibacterial activity. Moreover, tyrosinase inhibitory activity of EtOAc fraction, BuOH fraction and 75% EtOH extract was higher than the other fractions. In particular, tyrosinase inhibitory activity of the EtOAc fraction showed higher activity than ascorbic acid used as positive control.

In recent years, research on the development of eco-friendly synthetic suede based on water-dispersed polyurethane resin and non-fluorine water repellent has been conducted. Synthetic suede has a problem that the fastness to dyeing is greatly lowered after the water-repellent processing at a high temperature of $160^{\circ}C$ because the polyester is dyed with a disperse dye. Therefore, in this study, silica was added to water-dispersed polyurethane resin to improve dye fastness. To distribute the $PUD-SiO_2$ mixture evenly in the water-dispersed polyurethane resin, sufficient stirring was done for a period of time. When the $PUD-SiO_2$ mixture(PUD 1-5%) is applied to the substrate, it is confirmed through SEM that the mixture is uniformly applied without particle condensation. The results showed that silica with a diameter of 4~12nm and BET of $200{\sim}380g/m^2$ had the ability to improve dispersibility and fastness.

Purpose: This study aimed to identify factors associated with diabetes management self-efficacy in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Korea. Methods: A total of 173 pregnant women with GDM in Korea were recruited by posting announcements at two Korean online communities focusing on pregnancy and GDM. Participants completed a structured online survey from July to September 2018. Thirteen inappropriate responses were excluded and a total of 160 questionnaires were used in the final analysis. Descriptive statistics were calculated and multiple regression with the enter method was done to identify the associations of depressive mood, anxiety, emotional intelligence, and sleep quality with diabetes management self-efficacy. Results: Respondents reported a moderately depressive mood (mean, 10.36), low to moderate anxiety (mean, 41.65), above-average emotional intelligence (mean, 78.04), moderate sleep quality (mean, 42.01), and above-average diabetes management self-efficacy (mean, 52.29). The major factor associated with diabetes management self-efficacy of pregnant women with GDM was emotional intelligence (β=.51, p<.001). Other factors, in descending order of influence, were sleep quality (β=.22, p<.001) and exercise (β=.18, p=.004). Taken together, the aforementioned factors explained 34.6% (F=39.53, p<.001) of the total variance. Conclusion: The results of this study suggest that to improve the diabetes management self-efficacy of pregnant women with GDM, it is necessary to develop an education program that can also enhance emotional intelligence, sleep quality, and exercise.

There are attempts to utilize Hanji for apparel material, but, the reason that the strength and durability of Hanji decrease to a great extent in the wet condition, restricts the usability of Hanji. In order to improve the resistance against water, Hanji was treated with silicone type water repellent agents. The treatment was carried out by conventional pad-dry-cure method. The optimum treatment condition was obtained by varying the concentration of repellent agent, curing temperature and time. Water repellency was tested by spray rating method. Wet and dry tensile strength, tearing resistance and abrasion resistance were examined after the treatment. Flexural stiffness and wrinkle recovery angles of hanji were also measured. In result, the optimum condition of treatment was at resin concentration of 40g/l, catalyst concentration of 20g/l(half of resin concentration), curing temperature of 160$^{circ}C$, curing time of 120 sec. Flexural stiffness of Hanji was hardly increased and wrinkle recovery angle of Hanji was improved a little by resin treatment. After the treatment, in dry condition, tensile strength and tearing resistance were little changed but abrasion resistance was improved. In wet condition, tensile strength, tearing strength and abrasion resistance were improved.

The purpose of this study is to suggest management strategies for both upscale hotel buffet restaurants and independent buffet restaurants by conducting an IPA(Important-Performance/satisfaction Analysis) on the selection attributes for buffet type restaurants. Additionally, the effects of the selection attributes' satisfaction on the "intention to recommend" was tested. Surveys were conducted from April 15th through May 4th, 2016 by using both SNS and off-line surveys of consumers with buffet restaurants dining experiences within the previous year, of which a total number of 160 questionnaires were used for the statistical analysis. The result showed a few different selection attributes in each quadrant; additionally, food quality and menu had positive effects on the "intention to recommend" for hotel buffet restaurants, while food quality was the only selection attribute with positive effects for independent buffet restaurants. Based on the results of the study, it can be suggested for the hotel buffet restaurants to constantly develop new and unique menu items to lead the needs of the fast changing consumers of today instead of focusing on the premium characteristics of upscale hotels and their brand names. In addition, offering a variety desserts seems to be something to re-consider for both types of buffet restaurants.

This study was performed to examine the quality characteristics of goami baked yackwa. To determine the optimal amount of wheat flour for goami powder yackwa((100, 80:20, 60:40, 40:60, 20:80, 100), the measurement of weight, hardness, moisture contents, color value and sensory evaluation were carried out(yackwa dough 14g: 12mm to the height of the mold was formed, Baked conditions: $160^{\circ}C$, 20Min., Dip conditions: $60^{\circ}C$, 30Min.). As a result, weight after baked or dipped in syrup were heavier when made with 100% of wheat flour yackwa. The moisture contents and hardness were the highest in 100% goami yackwa. L-values, a-values and b-values were also the highest in 100% goami yackwa. In a sensory evaluation, the overall preference were the highest in 100% goami yackwa and 100% wheat flour yackwa. From these results, goami was shown to be possible to make high quality yackwa.

Transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) regulates the induction of Phase II detoxifying enzymes and antioxidant enzymes in response to many cancer chemopreventive compounds. In this study, we investigated the role of receptor associated coactivator (RAC3) or steroid receptor coactivator-3 (SRC3) and other nuclear co-regulators including CBP/p300 (CREB-binding protein), CARM1 (Coactivator-associated arginine methyltransferase), PRMT1 (Protein arginine methyl-transferase 1), and p/CAF (p300/CBP-associated factor) in the transcriptional activation of a chimeric Gal4-Nrf2-Luciferase system containing the transactivation domain (TAD) of Nrf2 in HepG2 cells. The results indicated that RAC3 up-regulated the transactivation activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) in a dose-dependent manner. The enhancement of transactivation domain activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) by RAC3 was dampened in the presence of dominant negative mutants of RAC3. Next we studied the effects of other nuclear co-regulators including CBP/p300, CARM1, PRMT1 and p/CAF, and the results showed that they had different level of positive effects on this transactivation domain activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370). But importantly, synergistic effects of these co-regulators in the presence of RAC3/SRC3 on the transactivation activity of Gal4-Nrf2-(1-370) were observed. In summary, our present study showed for the first time that the 160 RAC3/SRC3 is involved in the functional transactivation of TAD of Nrf2 and that the other nuclear co-regulators such as CBP/p300, CARM1, PRMT1 and p/CAF can also transcriptionally activate this TAD of Nrf2 and that they could further enhance the transactivation activity mediated by RAC3/SRC3.

The purpose of this study was to compare arch dimensions and frequency distribution of arch forms between Korean and Japanese Class I, II, and III malocclusion groups. Methods: The sample consisted of 368 Korean cases (114 Class I, 119 Class II, and 135 Class III malocclusion) and 160 Japanese cases (60 Class I, 50 Class II, and 50 Class III malocclusion). The most facial portion of 13 proximal contact areas was digitized from photocopied images of the mandibular dental arches. Clinical bracket slot points were calculated for each tooth based on mandibular tooth thickness data. Four linear and two proportional measurements were taken. Measurements are statistically analyzed in each malocclusion group. The dental arches were classified into square, ovoid, and tapered forms to determine and compare the frequency distributions between the two ethnic groups. Results: The findings of this study showed that Japanese females in Class I and II groups had a statistically significant narrower mandibular dental arch width compared with the Japanese males, Korean males and Korean females. But in the Class III group, there was no significant difference in the mandibular dental arch size according to the two ethnic groups and genders. Conclusions: The majority of Koreans and Japanese in all the malocclusion groups exhibited square and ovoid arch forms. The most frequent arch forms found in Koreans was square but ovoid for Japanese.
