  • Two Atractylodes species, A. japonica Koidz. ex Kitam. (AJ) and A. macrocephala Koidz (AM) were used in this study. AJ population had higher amounts of Sesquiterpenoids and stronger tolerance to root rot but less vigor of root growth than AM population. Two populations (AJ and AM) were crossed to make interspecific hybrid population. A total of 98 lines propagated clonally were selected from a cross of AJ and AM, and evaluated for contents of sesquiterpenoids, atractylon (ATLN) and atractylenolide III (AT3) using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and growth characters such as plant height, stem number and root weight. HPLC profiles of the hybrids were compared with those of parent plants, and it demonstrated the production of introgression hybrid by crossing between AJ and AM. Of 98 clonal lines,10 lines were selected by 10% level based on the growth vigor and tolerance to root rot, and AJM2102-51 line showed the heaviest root weight (117.1 g/plant) among them. A total of 98 hybrid lines contained on average $0.16\;{\pm}\;0.10\;mg/g$ of $AT3,\;2.00\;{\pm}\;1.37\;mg/g$ of ATLN, and $2.16\;{\pm}\;1.40\;mg/g$ of total sesquiterpenoids, showing high coefficients of variation (above 65%). Ten lines having high contents of sesquiterpenoids were selected, and AJM2101-15 had the highest amount (9.83 mg/g) of ATLN, and showed 40.8 g/plant of root weight similar to mean value (39.9 g/plant) of hybrid lines. The result showed that the introgression of both characters of vigorous growth from AM and high sesquiterpenoids content from AJ could be possible to make new hybrid lines by crossing between AJ and AM.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activities and nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW 264.7 macrophages in extract of Alisma orientale Juzep (EAOJ) and fermented extract (FAOJ) by Paenibacillus kribbensis AM49 (P. kribbensis AM49). Methods : The Alisma orientale Juzep was fermented with P. kribbensis AM49 at 37℃ for 72 hours. We measured total polyphenol and total flavonoid, DPPH radical scavenging activity, FRAP activity and reducing power by spectrometric assay in EAOJ and FAOJ at concentrations at 0.5, 1, 5, 10 mg/㎖. Positive control was used ascorbic acid. Furthermore, we examined effect of EAOJ and FAOJ on the cell viability and NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages. Results : The total polyphenol and total flavonoids content of FAOJ were increased 9.16 mg/g, 2.59 mg/g to 12.58 mg/g, 3.45 mg/g. DPPH radical scavenging activity, FRAP activity and reducing power were dose dependently increased according to the treatment concentration (0.5, 1, 5, 10 mg/㎖) of EAOJ and FAOJ. In particular, DPPH radical scavenging activity, FRAP activity of FAOJ was significantly increased at 5, 10 mg/㎖. Reducing power of FAOJ at 10 mg/㎖ was similar to ascorbic acid at 0.1 mg/㎖. In addition, the cell viability and NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages were significantly increased at the concentrations of 250, 500, 1000 ㎍/㎖. Conclusions : These results suggest that FAOJ by P. kribbensis AM49 has effects to antioxidant activity. In addition, the cell viability and NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages were significantly increased.

  • Additive manufacturing (AM, also known as 3D printing) applied to the construction industry is implemented and verified for various effects since advantages such as high design freedom, improving worker safety, and predictable construction period. However, due to the low maturity compared to the existing technology, studies are underway to solve new problems that occur in the overall of AM technology. In this paper, we confirm the effect of low construction surface flatness on the stacked features in the process of on-site AM construction. In particular, unstable AM features are determined through quantitative analysis by laser scanning, and a construction strategy is proposed for the surface flattening.

  • Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Fungi(AMF) is widespread symbiont forming mutualistic relationship with plant root in terrestrial forest in ecosystem. They provide improved absorption of nutrient and water, and enhance the resistance against plant pathogen or polluted soil, therefore AM fungi are important for survival and maintaining of individual or community of plant. For last decade, many studies about the functional variation of AM fungi on host plant growth response were showed that different geographic isolates, even same species, have different effect on host plant. However, little was known about functional variation of AM fungal isolates originated single population, which provide important insight about intraspecific diversity of AMF and their role in forest ecosystem. In this study, four AM fungal isolates of Rhizophagus clarus were cultured in vitro using transformed carrot (Daucus carota) root and they showed the difference between isolates in ontogenic characteristics such as spore density and hyphal length. The plant growth response by mycorrhizas were measured also. After 20 weeks from inoculation of these isolates to host plants, dry weight, Root:Shoot ratio, colonization rates and N, P concentration of host plant showed host plant was affected differently by AM fungal isolates. This results suggest that AM fungi have high diversity in their functionality in intraspecific level, even in same population.

  • To prevent and treat the osteoporosis, diverse therapies have been applied, which is still need to solve negative side effects. We investigated the effects of the extract from alternative medicine(AM) on the progress of bone loss in ovariectomized-rats fed with Ca-deficient diet for 7 or 14 weeks. Ovariectomy(OVX) concomitant with Ca-deficiency caused bone loss evidently decreased in bone mineral density and bone strength of femoral epiphysis and vertebrae, which were ameliorated with administration of AM extract. Also, the effect of AM extract on the biochemical markers were measured. The increased serum alkaline phosphatase caused by OVX and Ca-deficiency were observed, which were not affected by administration of AM extract. Administration of AM extract may have preventive effect on the elevated serum acid phosphatase concentrations caused by OVX and Ca-deficiency at 14 wks, implicating that AM extract possibly acts toward reducing born resorption, even though the results were not statistically significant. Serum osteocalcin and urinary deoxypyridinoline, the markers of bone turn over, were not changed by estrogen deficiency or AM extract. We concluded that the AM extract treatment had potently preventive effects on the decreased bone density and bone strength induced by OVX and Ca-deficiency. The changes of biochemical markers related to the effect of AM extract were not manifested but it still suggest that AM extract may inhibit the bone resorption derived from OVX and Ca-deficiency.

  • Soil samples collected from around the BOMARC Missile Site were measured for their activity concentrations and isotopic ratios of Pu and Am isotopes with particle sizes. The activity concentrations of Pu and Am in the BOMARC soil were remarkably higher than the fallout levels, and the activities decreased nearly exponentially with an increasing particle size of the soil due to a decreasing surface area. The activity ratios of Pu-238 / Pu-239, 240, Pu-241 / Pu-239, 240 and Am-241 / Pu-239, 240 observed in the BOMARC soil were much lower than those attributed to the nuclear reprocess plants and the Chernobyl fallout. Also, the atomic ratio of Pu-240 / Pu-239 in the BOMARC soil was remarkably lower than the fallout value influenced by the nuclear weapons testing and the Chernobyl accident. The atomic ratio of Pu-240 / Pu-239 was so close to the value of the weapons grade Pu released from the crash of a B52 plane in the Thule of the Greenland, such that the Pu isotopes detected in the BOMARC soil could have originated from the weapons grade plutonium.

  • Focusing on the concept of "narrative of desire" advocated by Peter Brooks, this paper aims to analyze the construction and presentation of the body narrative in I Am What I Am, combined with the "body situation" concept of Merleau-Ponty, the pioneer of body studies. This paper first analyzes the changes in the characters' physical and mental cognition in the film through the "desire narrative" and "visual body" proposed by body narratologist Peter Brooks. Secondly, this paper summarizes the physical and mental evolution of the coward-rebel-disciple-self-breaker experienced by the teenager, and analyzes the continuous plot composed of the body in time and space through the physical situation formed by time and space, that is, the visual presentation of the juvenile's personal body picture. So the protagonist's physical desire and visual body in "I Am What I Am" are the meta-driving forces of the narrative. The film presents the subject's physical desire in a visual way, and reproduces the deduction process of the body narrative through the body situation.shift from the common surreal, magical special effects, exaggeration, deformation and other techniques of commercial animations such as "Ne Zha: Birth of the Demon Child" (2019) and "Legend of Deification" (2020) to the true-life "I am What I am". "(2021), "To the Bright Side" (2022) and other visual experiences of the same kind marks breakthroughs made by Chinese animation and is of practical significance.
