Electro-electrodialysis of hydriodic acid with HI molality of ca. 9.5 $mol/kg-H_2O$ was examined in the presence of iodine using a commercial cation exchange membrane, CMB, as a separator. For the increase of the selectivity of proton permeation, the membrane was radiation-treated by accelerated electron radiation. The membrane properties (area resistance, ion exchange capacity, water content) of the radiation-treated membranes were measured. The area resistance in 2 $mol/dm^3$ KCl solution, ion exchange capacity and water content of the radiation-treated membranes at each dose rate dad almost the same value as that of the non-treated membrane (original of CMB membrane). Electro-electrodialysis of hydriodic acid with HI molality of ca. 9.5 $mol/kg-H_2O$ was examined at $75^{\circ}C$ with 9.6 $A/dm^2$. The radiation-treated cation exchange membrane by accelerated electron radiation had higher selectivity of the proton permeation by cross-linking structure of polymer than that of the non-treated membrane.

Objectives To check marker content for appropriate quality control of Woohwangchungsimwon sterilized to ensure microbiological safety and to observe antioxidant activity for any changes in efficacy. Methods To measure any effects of sterilization on the effective compounds, 8 ingredients of Woohwangchungsimwon were screened for any changes in marker content using HPLC-DAD. Using the colorimetric method on the microplate reader any changes in total phenolic compound and flavonoid levels were observed. Antioxidant activity was measured using the DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP. Results Of the ingredients of Woohwangchungsimwon, 8 were subject to quantitative analysis before and after sterilization. 21.6 mg and 1.93 mg of Glycyrrhizin was found in Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fischer pre and post sterilization, respectively. Decursin found in Angelica gigas Nakai increased from 0.16 mg to 0.29 mg after sterilization. Bilirubin found in Gallstone of Bostaurusvar. domesticus increased from 0.24 mg to 0.33 mg. Cinnamic acid found in Cinnamomum cassia Blume increased from 0.02 mg to 0.05 mg. Ginsenoside Rb1 found in Panax ginseng C. A. Meyer decreased from 0.02 mg to 0.14 mg. Paeoniflorin found in Paeonia lactiflora Pallas increased from 1.05 mg to 1.13 mg. Amygdalin found in Armeniacae Amarum Semen increased from 2.68 mg to 2.83 mg. L-muscone found in Musk increased from 0.63 mg to 0.76 mg. As for total phenolic compound and total flavonoid content, there was a 1.22 and 4.15-fold increase. DPPH and ABTS increased by 20.45% and 20.69%, respectively. FRAP activity was 2.78 times more active post stabilization. Conclusions This study confirmed that high temperature high pressure steam sterilization, a method used to ensure microbiological safety of Woohwangchungsimwon, does not affect marker content; in other words, does not affect quality of the Woohwangchungsimwon. It could also be seen that total phenolic compound and flavonoid content increased after sterilization. An antioxidant activity test showed that there was significantly increased activity of antioxidants.

To utilize Malus pruniforia Borkh. as a functional material, cold-water (CW), hot-water (HW), and 70% ethanol (EtOH) extracts were prepared, and their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities were compared. The antioxidant activity of the HW extract evaluated by ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging and FRAP activity was significantly effective. The total polyphenol content of the HW extract was also higher by 15.5±0.7 mg GAE/g extract compared to other extracts. The EtOH extract showed significantly decreased TNF-α (39.8%), IL-6 (65.5%), and NO (34.9%) levels in RAW 264.7 cells compared to the LPS-induced control group. The levels of IL-6 (21.1%) and IL-8 (19.3%) were significantly decreased by treatment of EtOH extract in HaCaT keratinocytes induced with TNF-α and IFN-γ. The UHPLC-MS results indicated that the EtOH extract might have chlorogenic acid and phlorizin as the major compounds. This was validated using HPLC-DAD, which showed that the EtOH extract had higher levels of chlorogenic acid and phlorizin (1,185±58 and 470±10 ㎍/g extract, respectively). In conclusion, the present study suggested that the anti-inflammatory activity of the EtOH extract was more effective than the CW and HW extracts, and chlorogenic acid and phlorizin could be used as indicator compounds and functional substances.

Recently, consumer demand for functional cosmetics containing natural ingredients has been greatly expanded. To develop the natural cosmetic materials, we selected 3 plants, Chrysanthemum zawadskii Herbich (CZ), Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton var. acuta Kudo (PF), and Rosa multiflora Thunberg (RM) which showed high total flavonoid contents (TFC), total polyphenol contents (TPC), and strong DPPH radical scavenging effect. We determined astragalin, chlorogenic acid, and rosmarinic acid as a marker compound for quantitative analysis of the content of each material and standardization of the quality standards and manufacturing standards through LC/MS analysis. HPLC-DAD was used to simultaneously analyze these marker components of three natural product complexes (Mix) and to validate the analytical method through experiments such as linearity, accuracy and precision. The detection wavelengths were set at 210, 265, and 330 nm. The detected 3 compounds from extract of CZ, PF, RM showed significant linearity ($R^2${\geq_-}$0.9947). The limit of detection (LOD) of chlorogenic acid, astragalin and rosmarinic acid were $8.29{\mu}g/ml$, $2.28{\mu}g/ml$, and $27.00{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The limit of quantification (LOQ) of chlorogenic acid, astragalin and rosmarinic acid were $25.11{\mu}g/ml$, $6.92{\mu}g/ml$, and $81.83{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The contents of the three indicators of Mix were 19.82-24.71 mg/g of chlorogenic acid, 43.80-46.02 mg/g of astragalin, and 46.33-48.57 mg/g of rosmarinic acid.

Additional frequencies are allocated in maritime digital data exchange to alleviate overload of the VHF data link. The shipborne ad-hoc network (SANET) for this frequencies was subsequently proposed, which provides various IP-based services to ships on behalf of satellite communications. In SANET, a ship should determine its own IP address to achieve IP connectivity to the shore. Accordingly, this paper proposes a SANET configuration (SANETconf) protocol as an IP configuration protocol. SANETconf propagates non-overlapping IP addresses across the network from the shore to ships. A ship obtains its IP address by exchanging Request and Response messages with its neighbors. Therefore, SANETconf eliminates the process of DAD and managing the movement of ships. Extensive simulations were performed to verify the applicability of SANETconf. Based on results, 85% of the ships can determine their own IP address within one frame. Also, SANETconf has a high resource efficiency by using 0.024 percent of resources for IP configuration.

The film Aftersun(2022) is Scottish director Charlotte Wells' feature debut and is one of the films that received the most attention in the international art film scene that year. The overall structure of the film is a look back at a certain summer vacation that Sophie, now an adult, went to Turkey with Calum, a 30-year-old 'young dad', whom she lived apart after divorcing her mother when she was 11 years old. In fact, it can be said to be a reconstruction of memory, and Aftersun not only describes the contents remembered, but also reveals the process of reconstructing memories, making the film a process of post-action memory work. In this process, Aftersun proves Lev Manovich's words that cinema is an indexic art. Going back and forth between home video and cinematic diegesis, After Sun unleashes a new imaginary temporality through a two-hour conversation, traces of indexical signs engraved on home video and present times. The film urges involuntary memories in the chaotic time to the present, and makes meaning through traces and signs of intense gestures in the dialogue between media and media, past and present. The We think about the meaning through the time when the story is stopped and the implications of the gestures.

Soybean is known as to have a several healthy ingredients. Among them, isoflavones are effective in reducing obesity, menopausal symptom. Isoflavones consist of 12 isomers, including Aglycon, Glucoside, Malonyl glucoside, Acetyl glucoside, and are usually found in soybean seeds. The content is determined by the sum of 12 isomers, and the content value difference between the varieties is huge. In this study, we investigated the agronomic traits, 12 isomer of isoflavone content and composition for 49 soybean germplasms. This germplasms were selected from the 23,000 germplasms with the highest total content of isoflavones possessed by the National Agrobiodiversity Center. Seed samples were cultivated in experimental field located in Jeonju City on April 04, 2019. Matured seeds were harvested and portions of each seed samples were oven-dried, pulverized, and analyzed for their isoflavone compositions using HPLC-DAD. The soybean samples showed distinction in their agronomic traits, isoflavone compositions and contents. The days to flowering ranged between 38 and 69 days while the days to maturity ranged between 103 and 156 days. The seed coat color of soybean germplasms was 24 in black, 10 in yellow, 2 in green, 5 in yellowish green, 4 in green with black spot, 4 in pale yellow. The germplasm with the highest total content of isoflavones was the IT178054(1257.61±7.98 ㎍/g), but the germplasms containing the largest number of isoflavone isomers were IT274592, IT275005, both germplasms had 11 isoflavone isomers excluding Malonyl glycitin. The largest source of Aglycon, the most easily absorbed isoflavone form in the human body, was IT274592(DZ: 8.83±0.30 ㎍/g, GL: 11.14±0.81 ㎍/g, GE: 8.16±0.26 ㎍/g), while only IT274592, IT275005, IT308619 contained all three components of Aglycon. In Principal Component Analysis(PCA), the first two principal components showed more than 3.5 Eigen value and accounted for 58.2% of variability. The total content value had strong relationship with Malonyl genistin content value. Acetyl isomers had strong relationship, but Malonyl isomers were only related to isomers except Malonyl glycitin. These results will help in research on soybean varieties to enhance isoflavone ingredients.

This study was performed to determine the contents of propionic, benzoic, and sorbic acids in dried seasoned seafood products (n=27) sold in Korea. Propionic acid was determined using a gas chromatogramphy-flame ionization detector. Benzoic and sorbic acid were analyzed by using a high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector. Benzoic acid was not detected in the dried seasoned seafood products; however, propionic and sorbic acid were detected in some samples. The concentrations of propionic acid and sorbic acid were up to 125.10 mg/kg and 658.18 mg/kg in dried seasoned seafood products, respectively. Of eight samples labeled with potassium sorbate, sorbic acid was detected in seven of them. The detected sorbic acid levels in these samples met the regulations for sorbic acid usage in Korea. The propionic, benzoic, and sorbic acid contents of dried seasoned seafood products determined in this study can provide basic data for safety management of dried seasoned seafood products in future.
