For measurement of dielectric constants, the commercial parallel plate electrodes system with guard-ring electrode have been widely used up to now. The capacitance derived from the parallel plate electrodes capacitor with guard-ring electrode is calculated by the equation of ($C={\epsilon}\;{\cdot}\;\frac{area\;of\;electrod}{distance\;between\;electrodes}$). Therefore, in parallel plate electrode capacitor, the diameter of the guarded electrode, the gap size between guarded electrode and guard ring, and distance between two active electrode should be measured precisely to calculate dielectric constants from the measured capacitance. Consequently their mechanical measurement uncertainties are directly contributed. Especially the air-gap between the electrodes and dielectric specimen at the system must be existed and the measurement error derived from the air-gap is impossible to evaluate as measurement uncertainties. In this study, we analyze the uncertainty of the commercial dielectric constant test cell using 3 kinds CRMs.

The objective of this paper is to develop an efficient genetic algorithm (GA) to find a channel assignment method for minimum interference among the channels within reasonable time. The series of specific channel number is used as a representation of chromosome. We use minimum-channel-distance encoding scheme within the same cell to consider cosite channel interference (CSI) when chromosomes are generated. The cell base crossover is also used. This proposed method improves solution quality within limited time.

This study is about the limits of GTEM cell using correlation factor between the OATS(Open area Test Site) and the GTEM cell. First, the field strengths at the 10 m distance OATS and in GTEM cell to obtain the experimental correlation factor are measured. Also, the EMI limits of radiated power are derived in GTEM cell as 3 position method is inversely transformed. The field strengths that calculated from theoretical models by 3 and 15 position methods are programmed and compared with measured data at the OATS. As the EMI limits of GTEM cell is newly defined, it will be use to substitute GTEM cell for OATS to efficiently measure EMI(Electromagnetic Interference).

Classical dihydropyrrole[3,4-f]quinazoline antifolates 7,8 and 9, in which the tricyclic ring is structurally similar to the pteridine ring of $CH_2-THF(1)$, the cofactor of thymidylate synthase (TS), were synthesized, and their in vitro antitumor activity was evaluated by measuring the cell growth inhibitory activity against cancer cell lines. The target compounds were cytotoxic against CCRF-CEM, human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, with the cell growth inhibitory activity $(IC_{50})$ of $0.8{\sim}8.3\;{\mu}M$. Among the three compounds, 3-amino analog 7 was 10- and 3.5-fold more cytotoxic compared to the 3-methyl analogs 8 and 9, and its cytotoxicity was similar to that of the reference compound with the $IC_{50}$ value of $0.83\;{\mu}M$. This result was supposed as the consequence of the fact that dihydropyrroloquinazolinone ring with amino group was able to bind well in the active site of TS. In the case of 3-methyl analogs, analog 9, which has two-carbon bridge between the dihydropyrroloquinazolinone ring and benzoyl-L-glutamic acid, was 3-times more potent in cytotoxicity than analog 8 which has one-carbon bridge, and this result indicates that the distance and conformational orientation of the benzoyl-L-glutamic acid moiety with respect to the tricyclic ring may also be a crucial determinant of cell growth inhibitory activity.

Objective: In the current work, we investigated the cytotoxic and apoptotic effects of Thymoquinone (TQ), an active compound of Nigella sativa (N. sativa) and Cis-platinum, on normal renal epithelial (GP-293) and human renal adenocarcinoma cell lines (ACHN). Methods: GP-293 and ACHN cell lines were cultured in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) with 10% Fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin plus streptomycin antibiotic. The MTT assay was used for cellular viability assessment. Viability of cells was observed using inverted light microscope 24, 48 and 72 h after exposure of the cells to various concentrations of TQ (1, 2.5, 5, 10, 50 and $100{\mu}g/ml$) and Cis-platinum (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 6 and $12.5{\mu}g/ml$). Moreover, apoptosis was analyzed with a flow-cytometry method. The untreated cells were considered as control group. Results: Morphological changes such as reduced cell number and increased intercellular distance and reduced cell viability in ACHN and GP-293cell lines were observed in both TQ and Cis- platinum groups; however, Cis-platinum had greater effect on ACHN cell line than GP-293 cell line. In addition, GP-293 cell line was more sensitive to TQ compared to ACHN cell line. Furthermore, TQ and Cis-platinum had apoptotic effects on both ACHN and GP-293 cell lines. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that TQ and Cis-platinum had cytotoxic and apoptotic effects on both cell lines, However, GP-293 cell line was more sensitive to TQ. Additionally, Cis-platinum was more effective on ACHN cell line than on GP-293 cell line.

Raphanus sativus var. hortensis f. raphanistroides Makino (Korean wild radish [WR]) are root vegetables belonging to the Brassicaceae family. These radish species mostly grow in sea areas in Asia, where they have been traditionally used as a medicinal food to treat various diseases. To investigate the effect of WR on neuronal cell death in SH-SY5Y cells, beta-amyloid was used to develop the cell death model. WR attenuated neuronal cell death in SH-SY5Y and regulated the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. WR extract also inhibited acetylcholinesterase inhibitor activity. Additionally, the WR treatment group ameliorated the behavior of the memory-impaired mice in a scopolamine-induced mouse model. In the behavior test, WR treated mice showed shorter escape latency and swimming distance and improved the platform-crossing number and the swimming time within the target quadrant. Furthermore, WR prevented histological loss of neurons in hippocampal CA1 regions induced by scopolamine. This study shows that WR can prevent memory impairment which may be a crucial way for the prevention and treatment of memory dysfunction and neuronal cell death.

Solar energy had become the main energy industry of renewable energy along with hydroelectric power generation. One of the technologies that contributed to the popularization of photovoltaic power and the decrease in the unit price of photovoltaic modules was the large-area solar cell. However, as the area increased, the light receiving area increased and the current value increased accordingly. Since power loss occurs when the current value was large, the number of busbar was increased to increase the current collection rate, and a technology to lower the current value through half-cutting was developed. The bus bar of the solar cell served as a passage through which the generated current was transmitted. This was because when the number of busbar decreases, the moving distance of electrons increased, so the amount of power generation decreases and when it increases, shadows occured. An important aspect of the electrode design was the optimal balance of these busbars and number of fingers. Therefore, in this study, the characteristics of the solar cell according to the number of front bus bars of the large-area solar cell were simulated using Griddler 2,5 pro. After selecting the number of busbar with the best characteristics, the difference was compared by varying the number of fingers and a better direction for the number of cutting was presented.

The effect of block arrangement has been investigated on the particle deposition in the specified collecting cell of two-stage electrostatic precipitator by numerical analysis. Recirculation zone existed at the downstream of the block in the collecting cell, and the particles entering the recirculation zone were deposited on the collecting plate. Particle trajectory and deposition had considerably different phenomenon according to electrostatic and inertial effect, which depended on inlet mean velocity, electrostatic number, and particle diameter in the collecting cell. The total collection efficiency reached a minimum value through an interaction of electrostatic and inertial effect. In the computational domain, total collection efficiency for the case of two blocks in the computational domain was more than that of one block at the relative small electrostatic number. However as the block distance and inertial effect increased, the difference between the collection efficiency of two cases decreased. In the range of relatively small particle size total collection efficiency was always superior to particle collection efficiency that was predicted by Deutsch equation.

In this paper, the performance of HCS (hierarchical cell structure), which consists of macro-cell and micro-cell, has been analyzed by assuming that the cells in HAPS (high altitude plat(on station) are tessellated to provide wide coverage, control the co-channel interference and give the higher spectrum efficiency. Since the outside-cell interference factor is well blown to analyze the effects of interference between cells, the effects of interference from the micro-cells into the macro-cells has been estimated using the factor as a performance estimation of HCS in HAPS. HCS served by HAPS can be realized by permitting the suitable power control and the proper number of users in micro-cell because the interference from the micro-cell into the macro-cell is not a function of the distance between cells but a function of the power control and the number of users.
