Ayurveda is one of the most historic and comprehensive medical system in the world. It was passed down as Buddhist medicine with Buddhism to influence enormously to East Asian medicine. Therefore, researches on Ayurveda is important in studying East Asian medicine as well as in studying Indian traditional medicine and althernative medicine. However, in previous studies, the term, 'Ayurveda', was mistaken and misused frequently. Clarifying the relations between the definition of Ayurveda and Indian traditional medicine is essential in preventing future controversy. Therefore, such relations were studied to draw following conclusions. 1. 'Ayurveda' is the term determining the oldest medicine system in the world that originated in India. Reportedly, the first book about Ayurveda is "Agnivesha samhita", and the oldest existing book is "Charaka Samhita". No records were found on medine books named Ayurveda, and interpreting Ayurveda to be a name of a book is explicitly misunderstanding. 2. There are various divisions of Indian traditional medicine in previous studies. However, divisions in 6 types of Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Yoga, Naturopathy and Homoeopathy is the most proper. 3. Ayurveda gained some similarities as it exchanged with other medicine systems. However, since each medicine system has unique characteristics, they must be separately studied. Especially, current Indian traditional medicine system has many divisions. Terms of 'Indian traditional medicine' and 'Ayurveda' must be separately used.

Actinobacteria are prolific producers of a large number of natural products with diverse biological activities. In the present study, an actinobacterium isolated from sunflower rhizosphere soil sample collected from Medak, Andhra Pradesh, South India was identified as Amycolatopsis thermoflava strain SFMA-103. A pigmented secondary metabolite in culture broth was extracted by using methanol and it was further purified by silica gel column chromatography with methanol-chloroform solvent system. Structural elucidation studies based on UV-visible, 1D and 2D-NMR, FT-IR, and mass spectroscopic analyses confirmed the structure as 1-methoxy-3-methyl-8-hydroxy-anthraquinone. It showed significant in vitro anticancer activity against lung cancer and lymphoblastic leukemia cells with $IC_{50}$ values of 10.3 and $16.98{\mu}M$, respectively. In addition, 1-methoxy-3-methyl-8-hydroxy-anthraquinone showed good free radical scavenging activity by DPPH method with an $EC_{50}$ of $18.2{\mu}g/ml$. It also showed other promising superoxide radical scavenging, nitric oxide radical scavenging and inhibition of lipid peroxidation activities. This is a first report of anti-proliferative and antioxidant activities of 1-methoxy-3-methyl-8-hydroxy-anthraquinone isolated from A. thermoflava strain SFMA-103 which may find potential application in biotechnological and pharmaceutical fields.

어저귀 한지의 발묵특성을 장 단섬유의 혼합비율에 따라 비교 검토하여 화선지로써의 적용 가능성을 검토하고자 하였다. 제조한 한지의 발묵특성을 검토한 결과, 인피펄프 단독으로 초지한 한지는 발묵상태가 매우 불량하여 화선지용으로는 적합하지 않은 것으로 나타났으며, 목질부 단독으로 초지한 한지의 발묵상태가 시판 화선지류보다도 훨씬 우수한 경향을 나타냈다. 강도적인 측면을 고려한다면 설포메틸 펄프화법으로 처리한 단섬유인 목질부 펄프를 60% 혼합한 어저귀 한지가 화선지용으로 적합하다고 사료된다. 펄프화 방법에 있어서도 설포메틸 펄프화법으로 초지한 한지의 발묵상태가 우수하였다. 이렇듯 한지의 발묵상태는 장섬유와 단섬유의 혼합량 및 지합과 밀접한 관련이 있다.

The cloning and expression of $\beta-glucosidase$ II, encoded by the gene ${\beta}glu2$, from thermotolerant yeast Pichia etchellsii into Escherichia coli is described. Cloning of the 7.3 kb BamHI/SalI yeast insert containing ${\beta}glu2$ in pUC18, which allowed for reverse orientation of the insert, resulted in better enzyme expression. Transformation of this plasmid into E. coli JM109 resulted in accumulation of the enzyme in periplasmic space. At $50^{\circ}C$, the highest hydrolytic activity of 1686 IU/g protein was obtained on sophorose. Batch and fed-batch techniques were employed for enzyme production in a 14 L bioreactor. Exponential feeding rates were determined from mass balance equations and these were employed to control specific growth rate and in turn maximize cell growth and enzyme production. Media optimization coupled with this strategy resulted in increased enzyme units of 1.2 kU/L at a stabilized growth rate of $0.14\;h^{-l}$. Increased enzyme production in bioreactor was accompanied by formation of inclusion bodies.

인도부페 프로세스는 유한개의 행과 무한개의 열로 이루어진 이진행렬의 분포와 관련된 확률과정이다. 무한특성모형을 유한개의 행과 무한개의 열로 이루어진 이진행렬을 이용해서 표현할 때, 이진행렬에 대한 사전분포로써 인도부페 프로세스가 이용될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 인도부페 프로세스를 유한특성모형과 연관지어서 유도하는 방법을 소개하고, 베타프로세스와의 관련성을 간략히 설명한다. 실제 모형의 추론에 인도부페 프로세스가 이용되는 예제를 살펴보기 위해서 가우시안 선형모형에 인도부페 프로세스를 적용한 모형화 방법을 언급하고, 깁스표집 알고리즘, 막대 자르기 알고리즘, 변분방법을 이용한 추론방법을 설명한다. 그리고 이 세 가지 알고리즘을 이용하여 이미지 자료를 분석하는데 적용해본다. 나아가 쌍자료 분석, 네트워크 분석, 독립성분 분석에서 인도부페 프로세스가 어떻게 이용될 수 있는지도 알아본다.

Plant cell culture provides a viable alternative over whole plant cultivation for the production of secondary metabolites. In order to successfully cultivate the plant cells at large scale, several engineering parameters such as, cell aggregation, mixing, aeration, and shear sensitivity are taken into account for selection of a suitable bioreactor. The media ingredients, their concentrations and the environmental factors are optimized for maximal synthesis of a desired metabolite. Increased productivity in a bioreactor can be achieved by selection of a proper cultivation strategy (batch, fed-batch, two-stage etc.), feeding of metabolic precursors and extraction of intracellular metabolites. Proper understanding and rigorous analysis of these parameters would pave the way towards the successful commercialization of plant cell bioprocesses.

Most of the software reliability models are based on black box approach and these models consider the entire software system as a single unit. Present day software development process has changed a lot. In present scenario these models may not give better results. To overcome this problem an improved additive model has been proposed in this paper, to estimate the reliability of software with modular structure. Also the concept of imperfect debugging has been also considered. A maximum likelihood estimation technique has been used for estimating the model parameters. Comparison has been made with an existing model. ${\chi}^2$ goodness of fit has been used for model fitting. The proposed model has been validated using real data.

The antioxidant potential of silk protein sericin from the non-mulberry tropical tasar silkworm Antheraea mylitta cocoon has been assessed and compared with that of the mulberry silkworm, Bombyx mori. Skin fibroblast cell line (AH927) challenged with hydrogen peroxide served as the positive control for the experiment. Our results showed that the sericin obtained from tasar cocoons offers protection against oxidative stress and cell viability is restored to that of control on pre-incubation with the sericin. Fibroblasts pre-incubated with non-mulberry sericin had significantly lower levels of catalase; lactate dehydrogenase and malondialdehyde activity when compared to untreated ones. This report indicates that the silk protein sericin from the non-mulberry tropical tasar silkworm, A. mylitta can serve as a valuable antioxidant.

인도 Daba 작잠 품종 고치에 대하여 주석산을 이용한 고치 삶기 방법이 적정화가 시도되었는데 고치층 감모율과 고치의 실켜기 길이는 주석산 처리 시간과 처리농도에 영향을 받았지만 고치실의 기계적 성질은 처리 조건 범위 내에서 차를 보이지 않았다. 또한 고치 삶기 용수의 경도는 작잠고치의 실켜기 길이에 크게 영향을 주지 않았다.

The metal chelate complex of aluminum 8-hydroxyquinolines $(Alq_3)$ is an important electro-luminescent (EL) material used in fabricating organic light emitting (OLEDs). In this work, diodes / displays using in house synthesized $Alq_3$ and simple structure have been fabricated. It is demonstrated that luminance of $12460\;cd/m^2$ and efficiency of 3.1 cd/A are achievable in these fluorescent devices. Possible degradation effects are analyzed.
