3-weeks old Commelina was transferred to and grown in Hoagland solution ($\pm$ 100 $\mu{M}$ $Cd^{2+}$, 100 $\mu{M}$ $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ 100$\mu{M}$ $Ca^{2+}$, 100 $\mu{M}$ $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ 200 $\mu{M}$ EGTA) for two weeks and then a number of physiological activities was investigated. $Cd^{2+}$ reduced total chlorophyll content up to 29% at a week and 75% at two weeks. In the treatment of $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ $Ca^{2+}$, the total chlorophyll content was reduced to 29% at a week and 80% at two weeks. $Cd^{2+}$ reduced 24% of Fv/Fm after two weeks. In case of $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ $Ca^{2+}$, Fv/Fm was reduced 55% at a week, but after two weeks, the plants were almost dead and Fv/Fm could not be measured. When EGTA was treated with $Cd^{2+}$, the value of Fv/Fm was not affected. There were no differences of water potential between the control and the treatment of $Cd^{2+}$+EGTA toy a week, but in other treatments. water potential was reduced. $Cd^{2+}$ reduced about 21% of water potential and $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ $Ca^{2+}$ reduced 43% of water potential after two weeks. $Cd^{2+}$ inhibited 21% of photosynthetic activity at a week and 32% at two weeks. In case of photosynthetic activity, $Cd^{2+}$ ＋ $Ca^{2+}$ inhibited 58% at a week and 73% at two weeks. $Cd^{2+}$+EGTA inhibited 15% of photosynthetic activity at a week and 21% at two weeks. Similar results were found in stomatal conductance. From the above results, it was observed that the treatment of $Ca^{2+}$ with $Cd^{2+}$ induced more reduction of a series of physiological responses than those of the treatment of $Cd^{2+}$ alone. Therefore, it could be concluded that $Ca^{2+}$ did not reduce the toxicity of $Cd^{2+}$, but enhanced $Cd^{2+}$ -induced physiological toxicities, but EGTA induced an decrease of $Cd^{2+}$ -induced physiological toxicities.

Backgrounds: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) increased prevalence and economic burden. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate drug use pattern in IBD patients in a real world. Methods: National Health Insurance claim data from 2010 to 2014 were used in this population-based study. All IBD patients diagnosed during study period were enrolled. IBD medications included 5-aminosalicylic acid (ASA), glucocorticoid, immunomodulator and anti-tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ agent(anti TNF-${\alpha}$). Growth rate of IBD prevalence, prescribed drug classes, duration of drug therapy and medication cost were analyzed. Number and percentage of patients for categorical variables, and mean and median for continuous variables were presented. Results: Total numbers of patients were 131,158 and 57,286 during 5 years, and their annual growth rate were 3.2 and 5.7% for UC and CD. UC and CD were prevalent in the 40-50 (41.2%) and 20-30 age groups (36.0%). About 60% of IBD patients was prescribed any of medications. 5-ASA was the most frequently prescribed, followed by corticosteroid and immunomodulator. Anti TNF-${\alpha}$ use was the lowest, but 5 times higher than UC in CD. Combination therapies with different class of drugs were in 29% for UC and 62% for CD. Mean prescription days per patient per year were 306 and 378, and the median medication cost per patient per year was KRW 420,000 (USD 383) and KRW 830,000 (USD755), for UC and CD, respectively. Conclusions: Increasing prevalence of IBD requires further studies to contribute to achieve better clinical outcomes of drug therapy.

This study was designed to elucidate the quantities of milk nutrients entrapped during cholesterol removal from milk by crosslinked $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD, 0.4~1.2%, w/v) and to evaluate the amounts of the residual $\beta$-CD in cholesterol-reduced milk treated by crosslinked $\beta$-CD. The content of lactose in the control milk (without treatment by crosslinked $\beta$-CD) was 4.86%, and the amounts of lactose entrapped by crosslinked $\beta$-CD ranged from 0.00 to 0.03%. The total amounts of the entrapped short-chain free fatty acid (FFA) and free amino acid (FAA) ranged from 0.03 to 0.09 ppm and from 0.28 to $0.71{\mu}mol/mL$, respectively. The amounts of the entrapped water-soluble vitamins (L-ascorbic acid, niacin, thiamine and riboflavin) ranged from 0.02 to 0.05 ppm, 0.01 to 0.06 ppm, 0.00 to 0.06 ppm and 0.01 to 0.06 ppm, respectively. The entrapped amounts of lactose, short-chain FFAs, FAAs and water-soluble vitamins were not remarkably affected by the concentrations of crosslinked $\beta$-CD (0.4~1.2%, w/v). Only very small amounts of residual $\beta$-CD in the cholesterol-removed milk were measured (1.22~3.00 ppm). Based on the data obtained from the present study, it was concluded that the amounts of entrapped nutrients were negligible during cholesterol removal from milk by crosslinked $\beta$-CD, and only trace amounts of residual $\beta$-CD were present in cholesterol-removed milk.

시료 된장의 pH, 아미노태, 암모니아태 수치는 각 군 간 특별한 차이는 보이지 않았다. 검정콩 된장이 가장 높은 폴리페놀 농도, DPPH를 이용한 항산화 효과를 보였다. 된장 추출물은 0.1~0.5 mg/mL 범위까지는 RAW 264.7 cells의 증식을 억제하지 않았으며, HT-29를 이용한 MTT에서 BD 군이 가장 높은 암세포 성장 억제율을 보였다. HT-29에서 pro-inflammatory cytokine인 $TNF-{\alpha}$, IL-6와 염증관련 인자 COX-2의 mRNA 발현은 시료 처리군에서 대조군에 비해 낮은 수치를 나타냈으며 BD군에서 가장 낮은 수치를 보였다(P<0.05). 세포 증식에 관여하는 p21, p53과 cyclin D1의 mRNA 발현은 p21과 p53가 BD군에서 발현이 증가하였고, cyclin D1은 BD군에서 낮아졌다. Apoptosis 관련 유전자인 Bcl-2는 BD군이 가장 낮은 발현을 보였다. 이상의 결과로 BD군은 CD, SD군에 비해 높은 폴리페놀 농도, 항산화 효과, 대장암세포에서 pro-inflammatory cytokines과 세포 증식에 관여하는 유전자 등을 조절한다. 이 결과는 아마도 서목태 된장의 높은 총 페놀화합물의 양과 안토시아닌의 함량으로 얻어진 결과로 생각된다.

Because of a small bandgap energy, a high doping density, and a low operating temperature, the dark current in HgCdTe photodiode is almost composed of a tunneling current. The tunneling current is devided into an indirect tunneling current via traps and a band-to-band direct tunneling current. The indirect tunneling current dominates the dark current for a relatively high temperature and a low reverse bias and forward bias. For a low temperature and a high reverse bias the direct tunneling current dominates. In this paper, to verify the tunneling currents in HgCdTe photodiode, the new tunneling-recombination equation via trap is introduced and tunneling-recombination current is calculated. The new tunneling-recombination equation via trap have the same form as SRH (Shockley-Read-Hall) generation-recombination equation and the tunneling effect is included in recombination times in this equation. Chakrabory and Biswas's equation being introduced, band to band direct tunneling current are calculated. By using these equations, HgCdTe (mole fraction, 0.29 and 0.222) photodiodes are analyzed. Then the temperature dependence of the tunneling-recombination current via trap and band to band direct tunneling current are shown and it can be known what is dominant current according to the applied bias at athe special temperature.

The effects of black soybena extracts on enzymes activies of rat were evaluated in present study. Eighty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 100$\pm$10g were divided into twelve groups which consisted of black soybean extract, Pb and Cd solution, and black soybean extract plus Pb or Cd soln groups. The weight gain was increased in black soybean extracts and Pb soln solution group but decreased in Cd soln solution group. The results obtained form the experiment were as follows: Glutamate pyruvate trasaminase (GPT) and glutamate oxaloacetate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT) activities were not significantly different among experimental groups. The lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities of black soybean extract administered groups were decreased than those of Pb and Cd solution group. Black soybean group increased cholinesterase (ChEase) activity as compared to administration of Pb and Cd soln group.

BACKGROUND: Heavy metal adsorptionnot only depends on biochar characteristics but also on the nature of the metals involved and on their competitive behavior for biochar adsorption sites. The goal of this study was to investigate the competitive absorption characteristics of Cu and Cd in mono-metal and binary-metal forms by biochar derived from Phragmites communis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Batch and column experiments were conducted to evaluate the competitive adsorption characteristics of the biocharfor Cu and Cd. In the batch experiments, the maximum adsorption capacity of Cd(63 mg/g) by biochar was higher than that for Cu (55 mg/g) in the mono-metal adsorption isotherm. On the other hand, the maximum Cu adsorption capacity (40 mg/g) by biochar was higher than that for Cd(25 mg/g) in the binary-metal adsorption isotherm. Cu was the most retained cations. Cd could be easily exchanged and substituted by Cu. The amounts of adsorbed metals in the column experiments were in the order of Cd (121 mg/g) > Cu (96 mg/g) in mono-metal conditions, and Cu (72 mg/g) > Cd (29 mg/g) in binary-metal conditions. CONCLUSION: Overall, the results demonstrated that competitive adsorption among metals increased the mobility of these metals. Particularly, Cd in binary-metal conditions lost its adsorption capacity most significantly.
