Technologies of super-precision micro pattern mold machining and high-performance optical films manufacturing using thereof forms the basis of recent display industries which have developed remarkably. Especially, it is the light guide plates and high luminous intensity prism sheets at BLU or FLU in LCD and lenses at virtual keyboard's display to be manufactured by micro machining technology. One way the industry requires to do that is by developing high-performance light guide plates or films which are existing light guide plates, diffusion films and luminance enhancement prism films all in one. In this research effort, basic processing of the micro pyramid structure by shaping method is proposed. Experiments of mold machining of pitch $20{\mu}m$ tetrahedral pyramid and pitch $100{\mu}m$ trihedral pyramid using a $90^{\circ}$ diamond tool were conducted to identify a variety of machining features, such as cutting forces, conditions of the surface, shapes of chips, and influence of materials.

Objectives: This study was carried out in order to estimate atmospheric polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) concentrations and sources using pine needles as a passive air sampler (PAS) in urban (Pyeongtaek), semirural (Anseong) and rural (Jincheon) sites. Methods: One-year-old pine needles were collected for analysis of their PAH concentrations ($C_{p,n}g/g$ dry) at the end of December. PAHs concentrations in the ambient air ($C_a$, $ng/m^3$) were calculated with a $Log(C_p/C_a)-LogK_{oa}$ correlational equation. Results: PAHs concentrations in ambient air ($C_a$) were high, in the order of urban ($114.03ng/m^3$), semirural ($105.17ng/m^3$) and rural ($61.91ng/m^3$) sites. However, distributions of PAH isomer concentrations were very similar. PAHs of which molecular weight is smaller than 228.30 (AcPy, Acp, Flu, Phen, Ant, Flt, Pyr, BaA, Chry) made up most of the PAHs in the ambient air (96.6-98.5%). Conclusion: At urban, semirural and rural sites, it was concluded that the main source of PAHs in the ambient air ratio of each PAH isomer concentration was cars, especially diesel vehicles.

In order to study the role of C-terminal aromatic region of T4 endonuclease V in the interaction with substrate DNA, NMR and Fluorescence spectrum were recorded. Analysis of flu orescence emission spectra showed that C-terminal region of T4 endonuclease V is in or very near the binding site. In the HSQC spectrum of $^{15}N$-Tyr-labeled T4 endonuclease V*DNA complex, the broadening of a peak was observed. It is presumed that this peak corresponds to one among three tyrosine residues which belong to the WYKYY segment of C-terminal region of T4 endonuclease V. Interactions of peptide fragments consisting of C-terminal residues of T4 endonuclease V with DNAs(TT-, T^T-DNA) were investigated by NMR and Fluorescence experiment. The results suggest that two peptide fragments themselves bind to DNAs and their binding pattern is not an intercalation mode.

In order to find less toxic antiviral agents from basidiomycetes, EA, the water soluble substance, was prepared from the carpophores of Elfvingia applanata (Pers.) Karst. EA was examined for antiviral activity against five strains of pathogenic viruses such as encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV), vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) Indiana and New Jersey strains, influenza A virus (Flu A), and varicella zoster virus (VZV) in vitro. Antiviral activity was evaluated by plaque reduction assay. Among five strains of viruses tested, EA exhibited the most potent antiviral activity against VSV Indiana strain with 50% effective concentration $(EC_{50})$ of 0.104 mg/ml in Vero cells, and its selectivity index (SI) was 36.5. EA was also examined for the virucidal activity, antiviral activity in preincubation on VSV Indiana strain in order to examine possible mode of antiviral activity. Preincubation of Vero cells with EA did not confer protection against VSV, however, prolonged exposure of cells to EA inhibited the replication of virus dose-dependently. In virucidal activity, the titer of infectious virus did not decrease significantly.

Influenza, commonly known as "the flu", is an infectious disease caused by the influenza virus. We consider, in this paper, regression models as a prediction model of influenza disease. While most of previous researches use mainly the meteorological variables as a predictive variables, we consider social media information in the models. As a result, we found that the contributions of two-type of informations are comparable. We used the medical treatment data of influenza provided by Natioal Health Insurance Survice (NHIS) and the meteorological data provided by Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA). We collect social media information (twitter buzz amount) from Twitter. Time series model is also considered for comparison.

The workers of limestone industry have relatively higher rate of accident and injury than other industry workers. This survey was conducted to provide the informations for the planning of safety and health educations to prevent the accident and injury. The purpose of this study is to identify the morbidity rate per month and to determine the related health factors, and to find accident experiences of the limestone workers and to analyze the reasons and types of that accidents. The study design was a descriptive survey. Self reporting questionnaires developed by researcher were used for data collection. The subjects of this study were 225 workers in limestone industries in Jecheon city. The statistical methods utilized for data analysis were frequency analysis, $x^2$-test with SPSS-pc(ver.9.0). The results are as follows, 1. The workers morbidity rate per month was 22%, and morbid factors were Flu., G-I trouble, hypertension, orthopedic trauma, external wound, burn, etc., and the related health factors are self-assessment for health, exercise, accessability for medical facilities. 2. 40% of the subjects have experienced the accidents during last 6 months. The types of the accidents were safety violations, traffic accidents and fire accidents. Injury types were external wounds, fracture/amputation and burn. The workers of limestone industry have higher morbidity rate and experiences of accidents. Therefore the more increased safety and health educations than now for both the workers and the managers are needed. And this study could be helpful to increase the quality and the quantity of the educations needed.

Objectives: Analysis and understanding on the health trend of college and university students are paramount to creating healthy campus communities. We evaluated the change of health status, health behavior, and influencing factors among them in the last ten years. Methods: Using the results of the ACHA-National College Health Assessment from 2000 to 2009, we reanalyzed the trend of health condition, health behavior, and health risk factors in linear regression model. Results: In general health of college and university students, major health problem were allergy problems, back pain, and sinus infection. Academic impacts were stress, sleep difficulties, cold/flu, concern for troubled friend or family member, relationship difficulty, and internet use or computer games. Although regular exercise was decreasing among them, it were more likely to have never smoking, no sexual partner, and eating of fruits/vegetables as time passed (p<0.05, p<0.01). Obesity and sleeping difficulty were increasing, while it were less likely to have feeling very sad, feeling hopelessness, and considering attempting suicide (p<0.05, p<0.01). Conclusion: These data expand the understanding of the health needs and capacities among young adults. For Korean college and university students, it is necessary to standardize the data-collection survey to set the college health and healthy campus.

In this paper, we propose an efficient method for locating lip. The lip shape is represented as a set of points based on Point Distribution Model. We use the Isodata clustering algorithm to find clusters for all training data. For each cluster, a lip shape model is calculated using principle component analysis. For all training data, a lip boundary model is calculated based on the pixel values around the lip boundary. To decide whether a recognition result is correct, we use a cost function based on the lip boundary model. Because of using different models according to the lip shapes, our method can localize correctly the flu far from the mean shape. The experiments have been performed for many images, and show correct recognition rate of 92%.

The development of transport is being easily shared with people all over the world. It is necessary to appropriately and effectively revise the domestic quarantine law because the fatal infectious diseases are at risk of being easily shared. Today, Korea has an advanced quarantine system approved by World Health Organization, but it maintains partnerships with related ministries (Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Justice, local medical institutions) and to introduce new medical technology (electronic quarantine) is important. And since the prevention of quarantine infectious diseases and prevention of the spread, in order to maintain international cooperation with the International Health Regulations, the quarantine law and the system should be amended and improved effectively and it is also a way to prepare for the outbreak of new quarantine infectious diseases. In the past, Korea has experienced great confusion during the past outbreak of swine flu and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus. To prevent similar cases from recurring in the past, the revision of the quarantine law and the improvement of the system should be done to cope with the changing environment (new infections, increased number of overseas travelers, etc.).
