Objectives SJ004 is a natural herbal medicine that contains Acyranthes japonica Nakai and Eucommia ulmoides Oliver traditionally used for joint and spinal diseases. This study aimed to establish an efficient method of extracting SJ004 to standardize using the yield, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and antioxidant assay. Methods SJ004 was extracted with distilled water, 70% and 100% of ethyl alcohol (EtOH). The method validation of 20-hydroxyecdysone and pinoresinol diglucoside was determined by HPLC-photo diode array and the content of SJ004 was calculated. The antioxidant activity of each extract was compared and measured using total flavonoids, total phenolic compounds, 2,2-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), and ferric reducing antioxidant power according to the standard protocol. Results The yield was highest in pure water extract and lowest in 100% EtOH. But, the content of marker compounds indicating 20-hydroxyecdysone and pinoresinol diglucoside was highest in 100% EtOH extract. In the physiological activity measurement using antioxidant activity, 100% ethanol extract was highest. The limit of detection indicating 20-hydroxyecdysone and pinoresinol diglucoside were analyzed 0.33 ㎍/mL, 0.1616 ㎍/mL, and the limit of quantification were analyzed 1.01 ㎍/mL and 0.49 ㎍/mL respectively. Conclusions The experimental results showed that the extraction conditions have a significant effect on content of marker compounds and antioxidant activity. As a result of method validation, SJ004 was standardized by 20-hydroxyecdysone and pinoresinol diglucoside.

부피적조절회전방사선치료(VMAT)의 정도관리를 TG-119에서 제시된 권고안을 통해 평가하고자 하였다. 또한 선택적 최적화 변수에 따른 치료계획의 평가와 그에 따른 선량학적 특성을 평가하고자 하였다. Varian사의 iX선형가속기와 Nucletron사의 Oncentra MasterPlan 치료계획장치를 결합하여 VMAT 치료계획을 수립하였다. TG-119에 제시된 5가지의 구조세트를 이용하여 아크 수, 겐트리 간격, 치료 시간 등의 선택적 최적화 변수(selectable optimization parameters)를 변화하여 치료 계획의 평가와 선량검증을 통해 정확성을 평가하였다. 치료계획의 평가는 선량체적히스토그램을 이용하여 표적과 위험장기의 평균값과 표준편차를 이용하였으며 선량검증은 이온 전리함과 $Delta^{4PT}$ bi-planar diode array를 이용하였다. 치료계획의 평가에서 싱글 아크의 경우 C-shape (hard)를 제외한 다른 구조세트에서 목표한 선량에 근접하는 결과를 보였으며 듀얼 아크의 경우에는 C-shape (hard)를 제외한 다른 구조세트에서 제시한 목표 선량에 도달하였다. 또한 선택 변수에 대한 평가에서는 전립선과 같은 간단한 구조 세트에서는 아크 수에 따른 치료계획의 차이는 거의 나타나지 않았으나, 두경부와 같은 복잡한 구조에서는 듀얼 아크가 위험장기에 대하여 좀 더 우수한 결과를 나타내었다. 겐트리 간격의 크기 변화에 의한 선량분포는 $6^{\circ}$에 비해 $4^{\circ}$의 겐트리 간격이 우수하였으나 $2^{\circ}$ 간격과는 거의 차이가 없었다. 점선 량의 정확성 평가에서는 표적과 위험장기에 대한 점선량의 측정값과 계산값의 평균오차는 싱글 아크와 듀얼 아크 모두 3% 이내였으며, 신뢰구간은 싱글아크와 듀얼 아크가 4% 내로 허용범위 안에 포함되었다. 겐트리 간격의 크기에 따른 점선량의 정확성 평가에서는 $2^{\circ}$, $4^{\circ}$, $6^{\circ}$ 모두 3% 이내였으며, 표적과 위험장기에 대한 신뢰한계(Confidence limit)는 5% 내로 허용범위 안에 포함되었다. $Delta^{4PT}$를 이용한 싱글 아크와 듀얼 아크의 선량분포 측정에서는 허용기준 3 mm/3%를 통과하는 감마인덱스는 평균 $98.72{\pm}1.52%$와 $98.30{\pm}1.50%$이었으며 신뢰한계는 2.99%와 3.74%로 허용범위 내에 포함되었다. 겐트리 간격의 크기에 따른 선량의 정확성은 간격이 적을수록 우수한 결과를 나타냈다. 본 연구에서는 VMAT의 정도관리를 TG-119에서 제시된 시험을 수행하였으며 제시된 모든 구조 세트에 대하여 허용기준을 모두 만족하였다. 또한 사용자가 선택할 수 있는 최적화 변수의 변화에 대한 치료계획과 선량학적 영향을 분석하였으며 각 상황에 따른 임상적 특성에 맞는 변수를 선택하는 것이 중요하다고 사료된다.

An analytical methodology was developed for qualitative and quantitative impurity profiling of the coloring agent Sudan III by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-diode array detection (DAD). The impurities in commercial Sudan III were characterized by comparison of their retention times and UV spectra with those of authentic standards. Four impurities regulated by International Committees in Sudan III were quantified by HPLC-selective UV detection. The impurities in Sudan dye were successfully separated on a reversed phase C18-column within 25 min and sensitively detected by UV spectrometry at two selective wavelengths. Method validation was conducted to determine linearity, precision, accuracy, and limit of quantification (LOQ). The linear dynamic range extended from 0.002 to 4.0%, with a correlation coefficient (R2) greater than 0.995. The LOQs of the impurities ranged from 8.04 to $54.29{\mu}g/mg$. Based on the established method, the levels of regulated impurities in five commercial Sudan III dyes were determined.

We proposed the bridge type superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) using switching operation of high-Tc superconducting(HTSC) thin film. The proposed bridge type SFCL consists of HTSC thin film, a diode bridge and a dc reactor. The controller for the operation of an interrupter is required in the conventional bridge type SFCL to prevent the continuous increase of fault current after a fault happens. On the other hand, the proposed bridge type SFCL can limit the fault current without the interrupter and the controller for its operation by the resistance generated when the gradually increased fault current exceeds HTSC thin film's critical current. We calculated the time when the gradually increased fault current started to be limited by the resistance generated in HTSC thin film after a fault happened and confirmed that it could be dependent on the amplitude of source voltage. The experimental results well agreed with the calculated ones from simulation.

In this paper, a new topology which can add a small reactor in series to a condenser-bank type reactive power compensator to limit current is proposed. And also the proposed topology can add or remove a power condenser safely without any addition of inrush-current suppression resistance. The proposed method tests variable resistance of the drain source of a switching device which is controlled by gate voltage in a two-way switch with a diode rectifier and FET switch. In other words, the proposed method is a inrush-current suppression method with the structure of variable resistance. In particular, the proposed method creates smooth current without any resonance in inrush-current as well as is not limited by the time of switch on and off.
