  • Amniotic membrane stem cells are considered as a good alternative to embryonic stem cells, but their use in clinical studies is still not common. Here, exosomes from canine amniotic membrane mesenchymal stem cells (cAmMSC-exo) were used for dog sperm cryopreservation. Upon cryopreserved straws using cryoprotectant containing 0, 0.5, 1, or 2 ㎍/mL of cAmMSC-exo were thawed, motility and membrane integrity were analyzed. However, results showed no significant differences between the groups. We concluded that cAmMSC-exo with lower than 2 ㎍/mL have no effects on sperm cryopreservation, and further studies to get higher concentrations of cAmMSC-exo should be conducted for clinical application.

  • FM screening has been praised for its apparent resolution advantage over conventional AM screening. FM screening is also known for its criticalness of film output and difficulties in the proofing stage because of the microdot formation. However, FM screening is not a well understood process from press performance point of view. This study was carried out for the purposed of introduction the availability of hifi-offset printing to domestic printing industries and evaluating the print qualities between 300pli AM screen and FM screen with the equivalent sized microdots to 4-5% dot area of the 300lpi AM screen, together with comparing with the 175lpi AM screen representing a conventional printing. Solid density, dot gain, color gamut and some other quality properties were measured and discussed.

  • Changes in the numbers of air-borne spores of Alternaria mali causing the Alternaria leaf spot of apple were investigated in apple orchards, by monitoring their AM- toxin(host-specific toxin) producing ability. Most of the air-borne Alternaria in apple orchards were not AM-toxin producers. In culture, only about 2% of Alternaria isolates from a commercially managed apple orchards produced the toxin that was highly toxic only to susceptible leaves.

  • The inhibitory effect of Atractylodis Rhizoma alba extract(AM) on melanogenesis was studied by using B16/F10 melanoma in culture. Cells were cultured in the presence of various concentrations of AM for 48 hrs, and the experiment of total melanin content as a final product and activity of tyrosinase, a key enzyme, in melanogenesis. AM significantly inhibited tyrosinase activity, and melanin content in a dose-dependent manner. These results show that Atractylodes macrocephala extract could be developed as skin whitening components of cosmetics.

  • A year-long survey of bacteriological water quality for Lake Eui-am in Kang- won Province, Korea, was conducted from June 1970 to May 1971. the purpose of this investigation was: 1) to determinate the seasonal prevalence of fecal pllution bacteria, such as coliforms, fecal coliforms and enterococci, in Lake Eui-am; 2) to correlate these findings with associated microbiological parameters; and 3) to interpret these results with respect to water quality and environmental health. The membrane filter techniques were used, for the determination of these bacteria.Densities of total coliforms, fecal coliforms and enterococci exhibited seasonal variations, the numers of these fecal pollution bacteria being high in summer and fall months in close possitive relation to the amount of rainfall, and being low winter and spring months. On the whole, the level of fecal pollution bacteria in Lake Eui-am is yet quite low There were not any evident correlation among the density of these pollution bacteria. The ratio of fecal coliforms to enterococci of the lake water varied from 0.01 to 4.25 with average of 1.47.

  • Recently, the need for asset management(AM) plan introduction to reduce increasing O&M cost with aging water facilities is on the rise. Therefore, asset inventory classification is necessary as the first step for AM plan construction. In this study, all assets of YW water treatment plant(WTP) were classified as 5 steps. In addition, specific code name was given to each asset which can increase compatibility in constructing the AM programs among WTPs. In the future, codes for attribute and status of asset will be allocated, which can facilitate proper AM operation.

  • 적지종심작전 부대는 적 후방에서 활동함에 따라 원거리 지휘통신을 위해 AM 무전기를 사용하게 된다. 하지만 AM 무전기의 데이터 전송속도는 매우 낮기 때문에 이를 적지종심작전 부대에서 활용되는 군 모바일 단말기는 AM 무전기 특성에 맞는 데이터 통신에 대한 최적화 설계가 적용되어야 되다. 본 연구에서는 AM 무전기 특성인 응답송신대기시간, 송신 패킷 간격을 고려한 ACK 송신 대기시간, 재전송 시간 조정, 일정 시간 후 자동 전송되는 데이터 제한 등의 설계를 적용, 실 지형에서의 시험을 통해 데이터 전송의 최적화 설계가 필요함을 제시하였다.

  • As the digital system with high sampling rates is required to process numerous data, it is difficult to realize the real time processing for this system. By using the nonlinear energy tracking signal operator, in this paper four kinds of AM/FM demodulators are proposed and designed by the undersampling scheme of decreasing the sampling rate. Particularly, the undersampling frequency and 3dB bandwidth are controllable of these systems and their conditions are respectively. Through the analysis of the designed detectors, useful results are obtained in respect to characteristics and errors.
