Objectives: This study aimed to find out the antimicrobial activities of Ramaria botrytis (Fr.) extracts against oral pathogens. Methods: The antimicrobial activities of Ramaria botrytis (Fr.) extracts were evaluated against oral pathogens by the disc diffusion assay, and the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of ethyl acetate extracts were determined by broth dilution method. The strains used in this study were Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sanguinis, Streptococcus sobrinus, Streptococcus anginosus, Streptococcus ratti, Streptococcus criceti, Actinomyces israelii, Actinomyces viscosus and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans. Results: The ethyl acetate extract of Ramaria botrytis (Fr.) effectively inhibited the growth of oral bacteria compared with acetone or ethanol extract. The ethyl acetate extract exhibited MIC values ranging from 3.75 to 15.00 mg/ml, and it showed antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and negative oral bacteria. Conclusions: The ethyl acetate extracts from Ramaria botrytis (Fr.) showed the antimicrobial activities against ten oral bacteria. Thus, the extract of Ramaria botrytis (Fr.) may be considered as an effective natural antimicrobial agent for the prevention of oral pathogens.

Purpose: This study examined the effects of training using the slime on the hand function and problem behavior in adults with intellectual disabilities. Methods: Five adults with intellectual disabilities who were judged as Level 1 or Level 2 were selected. The training consisted of one session (50 min)/day, one day/week for 10 weeks (preparatory activities: 5 min, slime activities: 40 min, finishing activities: 5 min) The functions of the hand (Purdue Pegboard Test [PPT], grip strength test [GST]) and problem behavior (Korean Behavior Problems Inventory [KBPI]) were assessed three times (first assessment; pre, second assessment; post-5 weeks, third assessment; post-10 weeks). Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to analyze changes in the subjects' performance before and after the intervention. Results: In the PPT, the use of the non-dominant hand was increased significantly (p<0.05). No significant differences were observed in the remaining results, but the mean value increased. In addition, although the problem behavior was not statistically significant, an increase in the problem behavior score was noted. Conclusion: The training using the slime for adults with intellectual disabilities is effective in hand function improvement and reducing problem behavior.

We investigated electrical and optical properties and chemical states of amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) thin films deposited at different substrate temperatures (from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$). a-IGZO thin films were fabricated by radio frequency magnetron sputtering using $In_2O_3$ : $Ga_2O_3$ : ZnO = 1 : 1 : 1 target, and their electrical and optical properties and chemical states were investigated by Hall-measurement, UV-visible spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. The data showed that as substrate temperature increased, carrier concentration increased, but mobility, conductivity, transmittance in the shorter wavelength region (>350 nm), and the Tauc-plot-estimated optical bandgap decreased. XPS data indicated that the intensity of In 3d peak compared to Ga 3d peak increased but the intensity of Zn 3d peak compared to Ga 3d decreased, and that, from the deconvoluted O 1s peak, defects or oxygen vacancies and non-quaternary contents increased as the temperature increased. The relative intensity changes of the In, Zn, and O 1s sub-component are suggested to explain the changes in electrical and optical properties.

The measurement and analysis of angular change have been studied in many fields. This study developed an angle measurement technique with optical fiber and photodiode. The position and attached angle of photodiode were investigated to find the proper combination of parameter. The results showed that the increased measuring range was achieved when the position of detector was away from the center of rotation. Inverse mathematical model was used to obtain angular changes with an optical fiber. The applications of this study include in optical sensor, joint angle measurement, and sport science.

오키나와를 제외한 일본에 분포하는 석죽과의 그늘별꽃(Stellaria sessiliflora Y. Yabe)이 최근에 제주도에서 발견되었다. 일본 식물지에 그늘별꽃이 한국(제주도)에 분포한다고 언급되어 있으며, 1935년에 제주도에서 채집된 표본의 사진(Slide No. 6294)이 이를 확증한다. 부가적으로 국립수목원과 국립산림과학원의 표본들은 이 식물이 상당한 기간동안 제주도에 분포하고 있었음을 나타낸다. 그늘별꽃은 잎이 넓고 잎가장자리가 주름지며, 줄기 윗부분의 잎에도 잎자루가 있으며, 수술이 10개인 점에서 별꽃과 구분된다. 국명은 낙엽활엽수림 밑 그늘에 분포하여 '그늘별꽃'으로 신칭하였다. 그늘별꽃의 형태적 특징을 기재하고, 도해, 기준표본, 확증표본 자료와 생태 사진들을 첨부하였다.

디지털 방송의 경우 아날로그 방송과 달리 다양한 변수를 포함하고 있으며 디지털의 특성상 에러가 발생할 경우 수신이 전혀 되지 않을 수 있다. 그래서 디지털 방송에는 다양한 변수들을 고려하여 에러에 대응할 수 있도록 모니터링 시스템을 운영하고 있다. ATSC Mobile DTV는 기존의 주파수를 그대로 사용하면서 Mobile 방송을 함께 제공하는 시스템으로, 기존의 시스템과의 간섭이나 영향이 발생 할 수 있기 때문에 실시간 방송상황을 모니터링 하고 에러 발생 시 이를 관리자에게 알려줄 수 있는 모니터링 프로그램이 요구된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 ATSC Mobile DTV 실시간 방송 상태를 감시하고, 수신감도가 좋지 않거나 동영상 스트림 오류등과 같은 문제가 발생 했을 시 이를 관리자에게 알려 안정된 디지털 방송시스템을 유지할 수 있는 효율적인 모니터링 시스템을 제안한다.

The Asian honeybee, Apis cerana, is a native honeybee species in Korea which is important in agriculture for pollination and honey production. For better understanding of the physiology of A. cerana, high-throughput Illumina transcriptome sequencing was performed to analyze the gene expression profiles of queen, worker, and larva. A total of 219,799,682 clean reads corresponding to 22.2 Gb of nucleotide sequences was obtained from the whole body total RNA samples. The Apis mellifera reference mRNA sequence database was used to measure the gene expression level with Bowtie2 and eXpress software, and the Illumina short reads were then mapped to 11,459 out of 11,736 A. mellifera reference genes. Total of 9,221 genes with FPKM value greater than 5 of each sample group were subjected to eggNOG with BLASTX for gene ontology analysis. The differential gene expression between queen and worker, and worker and larva were analyzed to screen the overexpressed genes in each sample group. In the queen and worker sample group, total of 1,766 genes were differentially expressed with 887 and 879 genes overexpressed over two folds in queen and worker, respectively. In the worker and larva sample group, total of 1,410 genes were differentially expressed with 1,009 and 401 genes overexpressed over two folds in worker and larva, respectively.

본 연구는 기존의 인공적으로 합성된 유기 자외선 차단제를 대체하는 안정적인 식물유래 천연 자외선 차단제(BHC-S)를 개발하기 위하여 수행하였다. 땅콩싹추출물, 병출추출물 및 곰피추출물로 구성된 천연 자외선 차단제(BHC-S)는 합성 자외선 차단제인 Parsol MCX-XR (OMC)와 동등 수준의 자외선 차단 효과를 가질뿐만 아니라, 피부에 대한 안전성을 가지며, 주름개선 등 다기능성 효과를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이로써, 자외선 차단 및 항노화을 위한 천연 화장품 원료로서의 이용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Joint angle generally can be measured to check the recovery process in rehabilitation field. This paper suggests to measure joint angle with Infrared sensor based on triangulation principle. We performed various experiments to find the optimal condition of the sensor’s attached distance, height, and angle. The results were compared with commercial goniometer for accuracy. The proposed infrared joint angle sensor can be effectively used in rehabilitation and sport science fields.

As an ongoing study about Allium hookeri (Liliaceae), this study was performed to evaluate the anti-oxidative effect of the leaves of this plant. Ethanol extract of A. hookeri leaves was successively partitioned as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, n-butanol and $H_2O$ soluble fractions. The ethyl acetate soluble fraction showed the most potent DPPH radical scavenging and superoxide quenching activities among those fractions. To prove antioxidant activity of ethyl acetate fraction of A. hookeri leaves, we checked the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase, and intracellular ROS level and oxidative stress tolerance in Caenorhabditis elegans. In addition, to verify if increased stress tolerance of C. elegans by treating of ethyl acetate fraction was due to regulation of stress-response gene, we checked SOD-3 expression using transgenic strain. As a consequence, the ethyl acetate fraction increased SOD and catalase activity of C. elegans, and reduced intracellular ROS accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. Besides, the ethyl acetate fraction-treated CF1553 worms showed higher SOD-3::GFP intensity.
