미더덕껍질(Styela clava tunic, SCT)은 항염증 복합체, 창상필름, 골재생 유도 등을 포함한 다양한 의학적인 치료영역에 이용 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 미더덕껍질 열수추출물(aqueous extract of Styela clava tunic, AE-SCT)의 $H_2O_2$에 의해 유발된 세포사멸의 보호 효과를 알아보기 위하여 세포 활성도의 변화에 관련된 요인을 측정하였다. 그 결과, AE-SCT는 3.3 mg/g의 플라보노이드와 32.3 mg/g의 페놀화합물을 포함하고 있었으며, HepG2 세포주에 독성을 유발하지 않았다. 또한, $H_2O_2$ 처리 후 AE-SCT를 처리하는 실험에서 AE-SCT는 $H_2O_2$에 의해 유발된 세포사멸을 개선하는 효과를 나타내지 않았다. 그러나, $H_2O_2$ 처리전에 AE-SCT를 사전 처리하는 예방효과 실험에서, 세포생존율은 $H_2O_2$만 처리한 그룹에 비하여 AE-SCT를 처리한 그룹에서 유의적으로 증가하였으며, 특히 AE-SCT를 $50{\mu}g/ml$ 처리한 농도에서 가장 높았다. 또한, FACS분석과 DAPI 염색에서도 사멸 세포의 수는 $H_2O_2$만 처리한 그룹에 비하여 AE-SCT를 처리한 그룹에서 유의적으로 감소하였다. 더불어, $H_2O_2$의 처리에 의해 유도된 Bax/Bcl-2 발현비율은 AE-SCT처리에 의해 농도의존적으로 감소되었다. 이러한 연구 결과는 AE-SCT가 $H_2O_2$에 의해 유발된 세포사멸을 예방하는 우수한 효과를 가지고 있음을 제시하고 있어 향후 다양한 항산화 제품 개발을 위한 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The tunic of Styela clava(SCT) consists of a proteoglycan network. Regenerated cellulose films were prepared by solution casting and coagulation of SCT in N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide(NMMO)/$H_2O$(87/13 wt%). The crystalline structure of powdered SCT was primarily that of cellulose I. The crystalline structure of SCT films exhibited a cellulose II structure, similar to that of viscose rayon. Physical characterization of SCT films and fibers revealed an intrinsic viscosity($\eta$) of 6.35 dL/g, average molecular weight($M_w$) of 423,000 g/M, and fiber density of 1.50 $g/cm^3$ with a moisture regain and water absorption of 10.20% and 365%, respectively. The results were similar to those of cellulose films regenerated from wood pulp. Films prepared with 6 wt% SCT exhibited strong tensile strength, high water absorption, and a greater degree of elongation. Scanning electron micrographs(SEM) of film cross-sections showed a layered, sponge-like structure.

The $(Sr_{0.9}Ca_{0.1})TiO_3$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode$(Pt/TiN/SiO_2/Si)$ using RF sputtering method at various substrate temperature. The optimum conditions of RF power and $Ar/O_2$ ratio were 140[W] and 80/20, respectively. Deposition rate of SCT thin films was about $18.75[{\AA}/min]$. The crystallinity of SCT thin films were increased with increase of substrate temperature in the temperature range of $100\sim500[^{\circ}C]$. The dielectric constant of SCT thin films were increased with the increase of substrate temperature, and changed almost linearly in temperature ranges of $-80\sim+190[^{\circ}C]$. The current-voltage characteristics of SCT thin films showed the increasing leakage current as the substrate temperature increases.

The $(Sr_{0.9}Ca_{0.1})TiO_3$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode (Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method. The maximum dielectric constant of SCT thin film is obtained by annealing at $600[^{\circ}C]$. The temperature properties of the dielectric loss have a value within 0.02 in temperature ranges of $-80{\sim}+90[^{\circ}C]$. The capacitance characteristics had a stable value within ${\pm}4[%]$. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in SCT thin films is observed above 200[kHz].

Purpose : this study is to examine what are the effects of the Sintongchukeatang(SCT) on the ovariectomized rat model of postmenopausal osteoporosis. Methods : 12weeks Female Sprague-Dawley 30 rats of weighting 250-300g, were divided into three groups including the sham operation groups(10heads) and overiectomy groups(10heads). then we observed changes in the body weight serum metabolic products and femoral trabecular bone. Results : 1. The level of serum ALP activity in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. 2. The level of serum GOT in control group showed no change in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated was significantly decreased in comparison with control. The level of serum GPT did not significant change among the three groups. 3. The level of serum estrogen in control group showed slightly decreased in comparison with sham, but that in SCT-treated showed no change in comparison with control. 4. Trabecular bone area as well as trabecular thickness in control group showed significant decrease in comparison with sham. Those in SCT-treated showed significant increase in comparison with control. 5. Trabecular separation only in SCT-treated showed significant decrease in comparison with control. 6. Osteoclast number and oseoblast surface in control group showed significant increase in comparison with sham. Those in SCT-treated showed significant decrease in comparison with control. Conclusion : SCT has shown to be capable of preventing and curing osteoporosis caused by old-aged and postmenopause.

The $(Sr_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})TiO_3$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode(Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method. The crystallinity of SCT thin films is increased with increase of substrate temperature in the temperature range of 200~500$[^{\circ}C]$. V-I characteristics of SCT thin films show the increasing leakage current with the increases of deposition temperature. The conduction mechanism of the SCT thin films observed in the temperature range of 25~100$[^{\circ}C]$ can be divided into four characteristic regions with different mechanism by the increasing current.

Two experiments were designed to examine short-term effects of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG), and long-term effects of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa), $17{\alpha}-hydroxyprogesterone$ (17P), and $17{\alpha},20{\beta}-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one\;(17,20{\beta}P)$, alone or in combination, on milt production of the starry flounder Platichthys stellatus. In the first experiment, fish were injected with either 200 IU hCG/kg body weight or the same volume of marine fish Ringer's solution (MFRS). In the second experiment, each fish was implanted with a blank cholesterol pellet (control), $200\;{\mu}g$ GnRHa, $500\;{\mu}g$ 17P, or $100\;{\mu}g\;17,20{\beta}P/kg$ body weight alone or in combination. In the first experiment, hCG injection resulted in an increase in the expressible milt volume and a decrease in the spermatocrit (Sct). After pellet implantation in the second experiment, the milt volume was increased in males treated with GnRHa, GnRHa+17P, or $GnRHa+17,20{\beta}P$. On day 7 after hormone pellet implantation, the milt volume began to increase, and on day 14, the milt volume in the $GnRHa+500\;{\mu}g$ 17P group was significantly higher than that in the control group. Compared with the control group, the hormone pellet-treated groups had a significant reduction in the mean Sct and sperm concentration (Sc) at day 7 after pellet implantation, while there were no differences in total sperm number. The results suggest that increases in milt volume are generally associated with decreases in Sct and SC, suggesting that the main mechanism for the increase in milt volume was milt hydration.

Studies of soil dynamic properties in Malaysia are still very limited. This study aims to investigate the dynamic properties of two selected tropical residual soils (i.e., Sandy Clay and Sandy Silt) and a sand mining trail (Silty Sand) in Peninsular Malaysia using 1g shaking table test. The use of 1g shaking table test for soil dynamic testing is often constrained to large strain level and small confining pressure only. Three new experimental setups, namely large laminar shear box test (LLSBT), small chamber test with positive air pressure (SCT), and small sample test with suction (SSTS) are attempted with the aims of these experimental setups are capable of evaluating the dynamic properties of soils covering a wider range of shear strain and confining pressure. The details of each experimental setup are described explicitly in this paper. Experimental results show that the combined use of the LLSBT and SCT is capable of rendering soil dynamic properties covering a strain range of 0.017%-1.48% under confining pressures of 5-100 kPa. The studied tropical residual soils in Malaysia behaved neither as pure sand nor clay, but show a relatively good agreement with the dynamic properties of residual soils in Singapore. Effects of confining pressure and plasticity index on the studied tropical residual soils are found to be insignificant in this particular study.

The $(Sr_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})TiO_3$(SCT) thin films were deposited on Pt-coated electrode (Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method according to the deposition condition. The optimum conditions of RF power and Ar/$O_2$ ratio were 140[W] and 80/20, respectively. Deposition rate of SCT thin films was about 18.75[${\AA}/min$] at the optimum condition. The capacitance characteristics had a stable value within ${\pm}4[%]$. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in SCT thin films were observed above 200[kHz].
