  • This study aims to address the effect of interferential current therapy and thereby to provide basic resources to physical therapies for internal medicine by identifying symptoms for functional dyspepsia and serum gastrin level that shows gastric motility. Following results were obtained by performing interferential current therapy to 16 subjects composed of 8 for functional dyspepsia group and 8 for control group for 20 minutes a day, 3 days a week, for 6 weeks. In control group, serum gastrin level was significantly( p<.01), lowered after the therapy whereas there was no significant difference observed in all questions from questionnaire for symptoms of functional dyspepsia between before and after the therapy. In functional dyspepsia group, serum gastrin level was significantly(p<.01), lowered after the therapy and there was also significant(p<.01) reduction in every question from questionnaire for symptoms of functional dyspepsia between before and after the therapy. There was more significant decrease in serum gastrin level and reduction in questionnaire for symptoms of functional dyspepsia in the functional dyspepsia group compared to the control group(p<.01). This study confirms the interferential current therapy as an effective therapeutic method for internal diseases including functional dyspepsia since it not only improves the symptoms of functional dyspepsia but also allows the gastric motility close to normal.

  • This study investigated consumers' recognition on shelf life of health functional foods to set up their rational expiration date. For this study 107 male and female adults aged 20 to 59 years were randomly selected as major consumers of health functional foods. And their data were analyzed with SPSS 17.0. The questionnaire included questions asking a consumer's recognition on the shelf life of health functional foods and how to treat health function food passing its shelf life. In this study, the consumers were found to pay attentions considerably to the shelf life. But most of them did not know an accurate meaning of the shelf life of health functional food and mistook it for expiry date. In addition, the consumers doubted safety of health functional foods passing the shelf life. Therefore, education for consumers about an accurate meaning of the shelf life was needed. The results of this study were considered to be helpful to set up a reasonable expiration date for health functional food.

  • One of the most important objectives of post-marketing monitoring of dietary supplements is the early detection of unknown and unexpected adverse events (AEs). Several causality algorithms, such as the Naranjo scale, the RUCAM scale, and the M & V scale are available for the estimation of the likelihood of causation between a product and an AE. Based on the existing algorithms, the Korea Food & Drug Administration has developed a new algorithm tool to reflect the characteristics of dietary supplements in the causality analysis. However, additional work will be required to confirm if the newly developed algorithm tool has reasonable sensitivity and not to generate an unacceptable number of false positives signals.

  • GaN계 청색 여기용 광원으로 최적인 $Y_{3}AI_{5}O_{12}:Ce$계 phosphor를 고상반응으로 제조하여 white LED용 yellow 형광체로 신뢰성을 검토하였다. 출발시료는 metal hydrous oxide로 합성한 분말에 활성제로서 $Ce^{3+}$ 이온의 농도를 변화시키면서 로내의 온도와 시간을 변수로 하여 형광체를 제조하였다. 그 결과 $1650^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 소성시킨 분말의 경우, 입자 크기가 $3{\mu}m$이하인 순수 YAG 형광체를 얻을 수 있었으며 $Ce^{3+}$이온농도를 변화시킨 결과 0.03~0.05mol% 일 때가 가장 우수하여 해외제품수준을 능가하는 우수한 발광특성을 나타내었다. 이때 CIE1931 색좌표 값은 x=0.385, y=0.433으로서 green yellow 색을 나타내었다.

  • In this paper, we investigate the Hyers-Ulam stability and the super-stability of the functional equation f(x+y+rxy) = f(x)+f(y)+rxf(y)+ryf(x) which is obtained by combining the additive Cauchy functional equation and the derivation functional equation.
