  • The relationship between the possible structural change due to chemical modifications and functionality changes was studied in pigskin collagen. Amino groups in collagen were modified by succinylation and reductive alkylation. Carboxyl groups were modified using carbodiimide. Thermal denaturation temperature of collagen increased remarkably by carboxyl groups modification whereas decreased by succinylation and reductive alkylation. Emulsifying capacity was improved by reductive alkylation and carboxyl groups modification while emulsion stability was improved by succinylation. Chemical modifications increased solubility whereas decreased the foaming capacity of collagen. Viscosity of collagen at various pH varied with methods of modification.

  • Under the social conditions that an understanding of a men change socially and men's interests in their appearances are on the increase, this research intends to study and analyze the changes of people's sensibility of values on ads for men's cosmetics, which is said to be performed the social, cultural function reflecting the social consciousness, the value and the idea creating a new one. The documents for the research was sindonga. The documents were analyzed quantitatively in regard of contents of a linguistic expression and a visual expression showing on advertisements for man's cosmetics, a time series analysis. As a result of analyzing the consumption value through headline of an ad, the emotional value took the highest percentage extending whole periods. Beside emotional value, a time series analysis showed that social values appeared to the major themes in the 1970s, and functional values was important themes in 1980s, and the social values and functional values appeared equally during 1990-2002.

  • Several [2]- and [3]rotaxanes bearing some functional groups on their wheel components and spacers with different lengths between two ammonium centers on their dumbbell components were prepared in good yields from dibenzo-24-crown-8-ether derivatives and dumbbell-shaped bis(sec-ammonium salt)s having a centrally located disulfide linkage, by utilizing the reversible thiol-disulfide interchange reaction. The shuttling behaviors of the [2]rotaxanes were investigated by $^1H$ NMR by use of the spin polarization transfer-selective inversion recovery technique. It was found that the change in spacer length in the axle resulted in a drastic change in shuttling rate of the [2]rotaxanes, although the introduction of the functional groups to the wheels did not affect the shuttling behavior at all.

  • Purpose:The purpose of this study was to find the effect of intensive therapy on gross motor function measure(GMFM) score in cerebral palsy. Methods:Twenty eight cerebral palsy children were recruited in this study. Gross motor Function Measure(GMFM) score and Gross motor Function Classification System(GMFCS) were used to evaluate as functional change and functional level. Intensive therapy period for cerebral palsy children was 3, 4, and 5 weeks. Statistical analysis was used paired T test and one way ANOVA to know change between pre and post therapy was used. Results:GMFM Score of pre- and post- intensive therapy showed the statistically significant difference. Intensive therapy period indicated the statistically significant difference in GMFM score. GMFCS level did not reveal statistically significant difference in GMFM score. Conclusion:Intensive therapy was effective on gross motor function measure(GMFM) score in cerebral palsy.

  • Coffee is the most frequently consumed functional beverage world wide. The average daily coffee consumption is increasing. This crop, which plays an important role in the global economy is under great threat from climate change. To with stand the current climate change, farmers have to learn crop cultivation techniques, strategies to protect crops from diseases, and understand which type of seed varieties to use to avoid crop loss. The present review briefly discusses the coffee cultivation techniques, impact of climate changes on coffee production, processing techniques of coffee, and the importance of coffee in our society, including its chemical composition and prevention against, major diseases. Furthermore, the importance and role of advanced nanotechnology along with molecular approaches for coffee crop improvement and facing challenges are explained.

  • The project performances can be measured in terms of meeting the project schedule, budget, and conformance to functional and technical specifications. Numerous studies have been conducted to examine the causes and effects of change orders for both vertical and horizontal construction, respectively. However, these studies mainly focus on a single project type, so this paper examines the impact of change order for cost growth and schedule overruns using four different building types to close the gap in the change order research area. A total of 211 building projects are collected from four building types: healthcare, residential, office, and education. Statistical analyses using ANOVA tests and linear regression models are used to examine the created metric $CO/day on the cost and schedule impacts. The results found that mean $CO/day values were not statistically different among building types, and that the sum of change orders is a statistically significant predictor of $CO/day. The results will help project stakeholders mitigate the negative change orders effects can be a challenge for project managers and researchers alike.

  • $\cdot$ Arthroscopic management is the effective method with acceptable results for coronoid impingement of stiff elbow contributing to the functional improvement and pain relief. $\cdot$ The functional improvement and pain relief seem to be affected by the severity of a degenerative change of the elbow joint. $\cdot$ Excision of coronoid process is required in a marked limitation of further flexion in addition to deeping of the coronoid fossa and anterior capsular release. $\cdot$ Excision of olecranon tip or posterior capsular release are effective method in severe flexion contracture.

  • This study was to investigate the needs of the functional abnormality of the Temporomandibular joint. The purpose of this study was to find out basic concept for the Chiropractic-care necessity of the neuromuscular skeletal patients with functional abnormality of the temporomandibular joint. I evaluated the change of the range of motion, neck pain, headache by post xray, orthopedic test and patient's charts. The range of motion at temporomandibular joint was improved and the necessity of chiropractic care was recognized in the neuromuscular skeletal patients with having temporomandibular joint problems.

  • This paper presents musculotendon model to show the decline in muscle force during functional electrical stimulation (FES). It represent muscle activation and contraction concepts including muscle fatigue. A muscle fatigue term in activation dynamics as a function of the intracellular acidification and the pulsewidth of stimulation pulses change activation to decline muscle force. The computer simulation shows that muscle force decline in stimulation time.

  • A multifunctional sensor is designed to measure viscosity, cleanness, temperature and capacitance of engine oil to make a clear decision on its condition. The simple structure helps easy fabrication and low cost while measuring four parameters by one sensor. The operation is described theoretically and is supported by experimental data. A fuzzy based algorithm to fuse the four kinds of data from multi-functional sensor in order to make a decision on the best time to change the oil is proposed.
