  • The purpose of this study is to take into consideration the formative and aesthetic characteristics of wedding dresses that existed during the periods of Neo-Classicism and Romanticism which appeared as a reaction toward Neo-Classicism. The method of the research was mainly focused on precedent research data and general references. Furthermore the data on wedding dresses was mainly collected from British, French, and American library and museum web sites. The result of the research is the following. The Neo-Classicism art, which appeared along with the enlightenment in the beginning of the 19th century, pursues beauty based on associations and imitations of ancient Greek and Roman arts. In addition to aforementioned pursuits, the Neo-Classicism art also pursued universal beauty and social usefulness through law and order. This aesthetic value was also applied to the wedding dresses, so classical beauty, natural beauty and universal beauty were expressed as follows: corsets of the previous era were removed from general clothing and Empire style that imitated natural Greek style became predominant. Also, muslin replaced high quality clothes which were used as the main materials of the dressing during the previous era. Empire style's wedding dress became popular and simple colors and styles of the wedding dress expressed the beauty of the human body and emphasized civility at the same time. Romanticism art and costumes opposed rationalism and pursued sentimentalism. Moreover, it pursued diversity, exotic tastes and accepted diverse reactionism unlike Neo-Classicism's simplification and standardization. These aesthetic characteristic were applied to the wedding dress of this period; wedding dress of romanticism pursued feminine and elegant beauty with "X" silhouettes and various decorations, like general costumes. And they were decorated with a variety of excessive accessories, details and trimmings to express romantic sentimentalism. Exotic tastes which included Chinese, Egyptian, Indian influence and other diverse tastes were expressed through hair style, accessories and patterns of shawl. However, the white color in the wedding dress revealed purity and sanctity which cannot be found from general costumes regardless of whether the dress expressed Neo-classicism or Romanticism. As a formal dress worn during wedding ceremonies, the wedding dresses of the royalty revealed dignity and authority and significantly influenced later wedding dress designs.

  • Variant surface antigens (VSAs) encoded by pir families are considered to be the key proteins used by many Plasmodium spp. to escape the host immune system by antigenic variation. This attribute of VSAs is a critical issue in the development of a novel vaccine. In this regard, a population genetic study of vir genes from Plasmodium vivax was performed in the Republic of Korea (ROK). Eighty-five venous blood samples and 4 of the vir genes, namely vir 27, vir 21, vir 12, and vir 4, were selected for study. The number of segregating sites (S), number of haplotypes (H), haplotype diversity (Hd), DNA diversity (${\pi}$ and ${\Theta}_w$), and Tajima's D test value were conducted. Phylogenetic trees of each gene were constructed. The vir 21 (S=143, H=22, Hd=0.827) was the most genetically diverse gene, and the vir 4 (S=6, H=4, Hd=0.556) was the opposite one. Tajima's D values for vir 27 (1.08530, P>0.1), vir 12 (2.89007, P<0.01), and vir 21 (0.40782, P>0.1) were positive, and that of vir 4 (-1.32162, P>0.1) was negative. All phylogenetic trees showed 2 clades with no particular branching according to the geographical differences and cluster. This study is the first survey on the vir genes in ROK, providing information on the genetic level. The sample sequences from vir 4 showed a clear difference to the Sal-1 reference gene sequence, whereas they were very similar to those from Indian isolates.

  • 일부 소스류 제품에 사용된 스탠딩 파우치에서 전자레인지 가열조리 시 열변형이 발견되어 이의 원인을 규명하고자 온도 변화 패턴을 조사하였다. 전자레인지로 포장된 식품을 가열 시 포장재의 온도 변화는 식품 자체의 온도보다 높고 국소적인 온도 측정 기술을 요한다. 공시 시료로 매운맛 닭 소스와 인도카레의 전자레인지 가열 시 포장재와 시료의 온도를 열화상 카메라, 온도센서 테이프 및 광섬유 온도계를 이용하여 측정하였다. 스탠딩 파우치 형태의 포장은 전자레인지 가열 조리 시 내용물의 불균일한 가열이 관찰되어 특정 부위, 특히 액위선 상단과 측면 sealing layer에 열이 집중되는 현상이 발생하였다. 열화상 카메라를 이용한 온도 측정 방법은 식품의 표면 온도를 측정하는 제약이 있고 실제 식품의 온도보다 낮게 측정되는 경향을 보였다. 온도센서 테이프를 이용할 경우 $200^{\circ}C$까지 온도까지 측정되어 전자레인지 가열 과정 중 포장재 변형 현상이 야기될 수 있는 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 전자레인지 가열 시 포장재 표면의 온도 변화를 기존 광섬유 온도계로 측정할 경우 실제 온도보다 낮게 측정되는 결과가 초래되므로, 좁은 범위에서의 hot spot의 온도 변화를 감지할 수 있는 방법으로 GaAS crystal 센서를 사용함으로서 기존 센서보다 더 민감하고 정확한 온도 측정이 가능하였다.

  • "Caraka-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$ (闍羅迦集)" and "Su$\'{s}$ruta-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$(妙聞集)" are the most important medical scriptures in India and are called the three scriptures of Ayuverda including "Astanga-hrdaya-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$(八心集)" (which integrates and summarizes internal medicine and surgery.) that is scribed in 8C. Scriptures that have been told today are deemed to be written in 3 ~ 4C. The three scriptures of Ayuverda and "Yellow Emperor's Canon Internal Medicine(黃帝內經)" are very similar in historical position, transmission and separation and addition, pattern and importance of contents, etc, from the aspect of formation and transmission of scriptures when compared with herb medicine. The characteristics that "SuWen(素問)" concentrates on medical theory and "LingShu(靈樞)" focuses on acupuncture therapy are similar with the characteristics that "Caraka-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$" values internal medicine and "Su$\'{s}$ruta-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$" appreciates surgery. The chapter 8 of "Caraka-sa$\d{m}$hit$\bar{a}$ (闍羅迦集)" is called as 'a volume of completion (or a volume of success)' and describes details of 'pancakarma (which means five representative treatment methods, that is successful regulations of two kinds of basti(灌腸), $\'{s}$irsavirecana(油劑), virecana(下劑), vamana(吐劑).

  • BACKGROUND: Castor oil and wormseed extract are important active ingredients for biopesticide, and ricinoleic acid in castor oil and three monoterpenes (ascaridole, carvacrol and p-cymene) in wormseed extract are known bioactive substances. However, their stabilities had not been studied, even though the stability was the core property for estimation of shelf-life of biopesticide. Aimed to investigate the thermal stabilities of the bioactive substances in castor oil and wormseed extracts. METHODS AND RESULTS: The contents of ricinoleic acid and three monoterpenes (ascaridole, carvacrol and p-cymene) were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC). The thermal stabilities of the bioactive substance were measured at $0^{\circ}C$, $23^{\circ}C$, $30^{\circ}C$, $40^{\circ}C$, $45^{\circ}C$ and $54^{\circ}C$ for 84 d. The half-lives of ricinoleic acid in biopesticides was ranged from 28.9 d to 57.8 d at $30^{\circ}C$, and the stability of pure castor oil were located in the range ($t_{1/2}$=46.2d for Indian product and 27.7 d for Korean product) at the same temperature. The half-lives of the total monoterpenes in biopesticides were ranged from 3.9 d to 27.7 d at $30^{\circ}C$. Among the monoterpenes, the stability ascaridole and p-cymene were decreased in acidic condition. All the bioactive substances showed similar stability on the different thermal conditions. CONCLUSION:The half-lives of most bioactive substance from castor oil and wormseed extracts were less than 100 d. To increase the stability of bioactive substance in biopesticide, stabilizing additives like antioxidant and oxygen remover should be considered to extend of the shelf-life.

  • Agricultural risks are exacerbated by a variety of factors ranging from climatevariability and change, frequent natural disasters, uncertainties in yields and prices, weakrural infrastructure, imperfect markets and lack of financial services including limited spanand design of risk mitigation instruments such as credit and insurance. Indian agriculture has little more than half (53%) of its area still rainfed and this makes it highly sensitive to vagaries of climate causing unstable output. Besides adverse climatic factors, there are man-made disasters such as fire, sale of spurious seeds, adulteration of pesticides and fertilizers etc., and all these severely affect farmers through loss in production and farm income, and are beyond the control of farmers. Hence, crop insurance' is considered to be the promising tool to insulate the farmers from risks faced by them and to sustain them in the agri-business. This paper critically evaluates the performance of recent crop insurance scheme viz., Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bhima Yojana (PMFBY) and its comparative performance with earlier agricultural insurance schemes implemented in the country. It is heartening that, the comparative performance of PMFBY with earlier schemes revealed that, the Government has definitely taken a leap forward in covering more number of farmers and bringing more area under crop insurance with the execution of this new scheme and on this front, it deserves the appreciation in fulfilling the objective for bringing more number of farmers under insurance cover. The use of mobile based technology, reduced number of Crop Cutting Experiments (CCEs) and smart CCEs, digitization of land record and linking them to farmers' account for faster assessment/settlement of claims are some of the steps that contributed for effective implementation of this new crop insurance scheme. However, inadequate claim payments, errors in loss/yield assessment, delayed claim payment, no direct linkage between insurance companies and farmers are the major shortcomings of this scheme. This calls for revamping the crop insurance program in India from time to time in tune with the dynamic changes in climatic factors on one hand and to provide a safety-net for farmers to mitigate losses arising from climatic shocks on the other. The future research avenues include: insuring the revenue of the farmer (Price × Yield) as in USA and more and more tenant farmers should be brought under insurance by doling out discounts for group coverage of farmers like in Philippines where 20 per cent discount in premium is given for a group of 5-10 farmers, 30 per cent for a group of 10-20 and 40 per cent for a group of >20 farmers.

  • Withaferin A는 Withania somnifera에서 추출한 천연물질로 스테로이드성 락톤(steroidal lactone)으로 항암, 항염증, 면역억제기능을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 withaferin A의 다양한 기능 중 항암효과에 대하여 논하고자 한다. Withaferin A는 암세포에서 세포의 분열, 전이, 침투 및 혈관생성을 억제함으로써 항암작용을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한, 기존에 사용되고 있던 항암요법인 방사선 용법과 저농도의 항암제와 withaferin A를 함께 병합 처리하면 암세포의 세포사멸을 현저하게 증가시키는 약물 민감화 작용을 한다. 이러한 withaferin A에 의한 항암작용에는 다양한 신호전달체계가 수반된다. 우선, withaferin A는 세포 내 활성산소의 양을 증가시키고, ER stress와 미토콘드리아 매개의 세포사멸을 유도한다. 둘째로, withaferin A는 세포의 성장과 분열, 전이에 중요한 Jak/STAT, Akt, Notch, 그리고 c-Met의 신호전달을 억제한다. 셋째, withaferin A는 prostate apoptosis protein-4의 발현을 증가시켜 세포사멸을 유도하거나 세포의 이동을 억제한다. 마지막으로, withaferin A는 proteasome의 활성을 억제하여 세포사멸 유도단백질의 발현을 증가시킴으로써 암세포사멸을 증가시킨다. 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 withaferin A는 새로운 항암제로서의 가능성을 가지고 있다.

  • 근래 인도에서의 잔혹한 집단 성폭행 사건에 대한 보도를 자주 접하고 있다. 인도에서 가장 부각된 집단 성폭행 사건은 2012년 의대생인 조티 싱을 버스에서 6명이 집단 성폭행한 후 성기와 장기를 손상해 사망하게 만든 사건이다. 이 사건을 계기로 성폭행에 대해 사형까지도 포함한 강력한 처벌 법안이 발의되고 통과되었다. 그러나 그 이후로도 성폭행은 여전히 증가하고 있다. 이에 성폭행 사건 발생지역을 중심으로 지역적 특성과의 연관성을 살펴본 결과, 언론에 보도된 집단 성폭행 사례의 대부분이 인도 중북부에서 발생하는 것으로 나타났으며, 이것은 지역적으로 힌두 강세지역과 일치하는 것을 확인하였다. 그렇다면 그 원인은 여성 경시가 심각한 힌두 근본주의가 그 원인이라고 결론 내릴 수밖에 없다. 힌두 근본주의자들은 강한 복고주의적 경향을 가지고 여성에 관한 전통적 가치를 부활시키려 한다. 인도 사회에서 여성은 아직도 종속적인 피해 위험에 노출되어 있다. 집권당과 정치지도자들의 힌두 근본주의 노선 추구는 인도 여성의 사회적 지위와 인권을 개선하는 데는 많은 시간이 더 필요할 것으로 보인다.
