The rhGH-loaded PLGA microsphere formulation was prepared using a double emulsion process from hydrophilic 0:50 poly(D.L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) polymers. To investigate the sustained efficacy of this formulation, ts pharmacodynamic characteristics were analyzed. It showed particle size of ca 53.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ with high drug ncorporation efficiency and it was sucutaneously administrated to hypophysectomized rats and whole body rowth responses of this formulation were compared to those of the different dosing patterns of rhGH.

Variable weld bead penetrations related to the base metal chemistry of stainless steels in GTA welding have been under constant investigations due to their industrial implications. It has been proposed that among other elements, the sulfur content of steels determines the weld pool geometry, particularly its penetration. It is suggested that the surface tension temperature gradient of steels becomes positive with appropriate dosing in sulfur and results in inward melt flow, propitious for deeper welds. However, the chemistry of industrial steels is complex due to the presence of multiple minor elements either deliberately added or remnant impurity traces. With this in view, investigations on 41 austenitic and nine martensitic stainless steels were carried to see if there existed any possible relation between the weld profile and some of the designated elements. The results suggest no direct correlation between sulfur or any other major or trace element and weld penetration. At first glance the results are contradictory to what is often asserted.

The field of cytochrome P450 pharmacogenomics has progressed rapidly during the past 25 years. Recently, conjugating enzymes including sulfotransferase, acetyltransferase, glucuronosyltransferase and glutathione transferase have been also extensively studied. All the major human drug-metabolizing P450 enzymes and some conjugating enzymes have been identified and cloned, and the major gene variants that cause inter-individual variability in drug response and are related to adverse drug reactions have been identified. This information now provides the basis for the use of predictive pharmacogenomics to yield drug therapies that are more efficient and safer. Today, we understand which drugs warrant dosing based on pharmacogenomics to improve drug treatment. It is anticipated that genotyping could be used to personalize drug treatment for vast numbers of subjects, decreasing the cost of drug treatment and increasing the efficacy of drugs and health in general. It is assumed that such personalized P450 gene-based treatment which is so-called tailor(order)-made drug therapy would be relevant for 10-20% of all drug therapy in the future.

It is difficult to determine the feeding rate of coagulant in water treatment process, due to nonlinearity, multivariables and slow response characteristics etc. To deal with this difficulty, the fusion of genetic algorithms and fuzzy inference system was used in determining of feeding rate of coagulant. The genetic algorithms are excellently robust in complex operation problems, since it uses randomized operators and searches for the best chromosome without auxiliary information from a population consists of codings of parameter set. To apply this algorithms, we made the look up table and membership function from the actual operation data of water treatment process. We determined optimum dosages of coagulant (PAC, LAS etc.) by the fuzzy operation, and compared it with the feeding rate of the actual operation data.

This paper is concerned with a simultaneous design of TSK (Takagi-Sugeno-Kang)-linguistic fuzzy models with uncertain model output and the computationally efficient representation. For this purpose, we use the fundamental idea of linguistic models introduced by Pedrycz and develop their comprehensive design framework. The design process consists of several main phases such as (a) the automatic generation of the linguistic contexts by probabilistic distribution using CDF (conditional density function) and PDF (probability density function) (b) performing context-based fuzzy clustering preserving homogeneity based on the concept of fuzzy granulation (c) augment of bias term to compensate bias error (d) combination of TSK and linguistic context in the consequent part. Finally, we contrast the performance of the enhanced models with other fuzzy models for automobile MPG predication data and coagulant dosing process in a water purification plant.

The Pharmacokinetics of furosemide (5 mg/kg iv) was investigated in rabbits with folate (75 mg/kg, 150 mg/kg 300 mg/ug, iv) induced renal failure. The plasma concentration was increased and urinary excretion was decreased significantly compared with those of normal rabbits. ${\alpha},\;{\beta}\;and\;K_{12},\;K_{21},\;K_{10}$ were decreased, $t_{1/2}$ and AUC were increased significantly. Correlation of serum creatinine concentration and AUC, renal clearance have linear relationship respectively. In short, dosage regimen of furosemide is considered to be adjusted in the dose size and the dosing interval by degree of serum creatinine concentration.

The contraction rate is a very important element that dominate quality of product in plastic injection molding. To get wanted products, the contraction rate of used resin must be considered necessarily when designing plastic injection molds, and suitable deform conditions must be chosen with this. In this paper, important parts used in LED department were produced by injection mold using POM resin, and dimension error that happened by contraction rate of resin was corrected and reflected in die design and suitable deform conditions were decided.

The use of dental implants has become a mainstay of rehabilitative and restorative dentistry. With an impressive clinical success rate, there remain a few minor clinical issues with the use of implants such as peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis. The use of laser technology with implants has a fascinating breadth of applications, beginning from their precision manufacturing to clinical uses for surgical site preparation, reducing pain and inflammation, and promoting osseointegration and tissue regeneration. This latter aspect is the focus of this review, which outlines various studies of implants and laser therapy in animal models. The use of low level light therapy or photobiomodulation has demonstrated its efficacy in these studies. Besides more research studies to understand its molecular mechanisms, significant efforts are needed to standardize the clinical dosing and delivery protocols for laser therapy to ensure the maximal efficacy and safety of this potent clinical tool for photobiomodulation.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is often difficult to diagnose and challenging to treat. Untreated, it is characterized by a progressive increase in pulmonary vascular resistance leading to right ventricular failure and death. The past decade has seen remarkable improvements in therapy, driven largely by the conduct of randomized controlled trials. Still, the selection of most appropriate therapy is complex, and requires familiarity with the disease process, evidence from treatment trials, complicated drug delivery systems, dosing regimens, side effects, and complications. We tried to provide evidence-based treatment recommendations for physicians involved in the care of these complex patients. Due to the complexity of the diagnostic evaluation required, and the treatment options available, it is strongly recommended that consideration be given to referral of patients with PAH to a specialized center.

정수처리 공정은 응집, 침전, 여과, 살균소독 처리로 이루어지며, 이 가운데 약품주입에 의한 응집 침전 처리는 상수처리시스템에서 가장 핵심 부분이 된다. 투입해야할 약품의 양은 여러 가지 조건에 따라 달라지는데 원수의 탁도, 수온, 그리고 pH등의 여러 요인이 있다. 본 논문에서는 jar테스트의 결과를 이용하여 최초 물의 상태에 따라 약품의 주입량을 간단하게 결정짓는 룰의 유도를 다루고 있다. 이러한 간이룰의 유도를 위하여 엔트로피 이론을 적용하였다. 이 이론을 이용하여 출력변수인 유출수질(탁도)의 만족/불만족의 상태에 따라 입력변수인 유입수질(탁도, 수온, pH 알칼리도 등) 과 결정변수인 약품투입량에 대한 간이룰을 유도하고 시험용 데이터에 이 룰에 적응시켜 그 결과를 알아보았다.
