피부의 관리를 위한 방법 중 광을 이용한 케어는 비침습적인 방법으로 세포를 활성화 시켜 도움을 주는 매우 유용한 방법이다. 최근에는 낮은 에너지의 LED를 광원으로 이용하는 LLLT (Low Level Light Therapy)가 많이 적용이 된다. 본 논문에서는 피부 미용기기에서 많이 사용되고 있는 가시광 영역의 적색과 황색, 그리고 적외선 영역의 LED를 이용하여 array를 제작하였다. 제작된 LED array는 5V의 전압과 50mA의 전류로 구동되며, 적색이 평균 $10.7mW/cm^2$, 황색이 평균 $1.8mW/cm^2$, 적외선이 평균 $5.5mW/cm^2$의 광출력을 갖는다. 이를 배양된 human cell plate에 각각 10, 20, 40분의 시간으로 조사하였으며, LED array와 조사면 사이에 20 mm의 거리를 두어 균일한 광량이 조사 될 수 있도록 하였다. 실험결과, wound healing의 경우는 적색광을 조사하였을 때, injury line의 길이가 $604.36{\mu}m$에서 10분 조사 시 $368.92{\mu}m$, 20분 조사 시 $298.04{\mu}m$, 40분 조사 시 $491.22{\mu}m$로 줄어드는 효과를 보였으며 특히 20분간 조사하였을 경우의 효과가 가장 좋았다. Cell regeneration의 경우는 황색광을 20분간 조사하였을 경우에 UV 에 의해 손상된 세포 수가 가장 크게 줄어드는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 결과적으로 photorejuvenation 효과를 줄 수 있는 wound healing과 cell regeneration에는 적색 및 황색광의 LED array를 20분간 조사하였을 때가 가장 효과적이었으며, 적외광의 경우에는 모든 실험에서 효과가 없음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Efficacy of antioxidative activity and nitrite scavenging ability of ethanol extract of Phyllostachys bambusoides S. et Z. (P. bambusoides) was investigated. Electron-donating ability of ethanol extract at $RC_{50}$ was $116.75\;{\mu}g/mL$. After addition of 0.92 mg/mL ethanol extract, autooxidation of pyrogallol decreased to 44% by superoxide dismutase-like activity. In antioxidative activity of ethanol extract against linoleic acid during incubation times of 4 and 6 day at $40^{\circ}C$, TBA values decreased by 74.76 and 58.48% with addition of 50 mg/mL, respectively. Nitrite scavenging ability showed the most remarkable effect at pH 1.2, decreasing to 43% by addition of 0.2 mg/mL. These results suggest that ethanol extract of P. bambusoides can be used in bioactive and functional material.

Burkholderia contaminans PSB-A and Burkholderia ambifaria PSB-B were isolated from button mushroom bed to estimate their phosphate solubility. The phosphate-solubilizing abilities of these strains were assessed by measuring the phosphorus content in a single and co-inoculation medium for 7 days. The co-inoculation of these two strains released the highest content of soluble phosphorus (166.3 ㎍ mL^-1) into the medium, followed by single inoculation of B. contaminans PSB-A (143.73 ㎍ mL^-1) and B. ambifaria PSB-B (127.1 ㎍ mL^-1). The highest pH reduction, organic acid production, and glucose consumption were also observed in the co-inoculation medium. According to the plant growth promotion bioassay, co-inoculation enhanced the growth of romaine lettuce much more than the single inoculation (20.4% for leaf widths and 16.6% for root lengths). Although no significant difference was noted between single and co-inoculation of bacterial strains in terms of phosphorous release and plant growth, co-inoculation of PSB may have a beneficial effect on crop growth due to a synergistic effect between the strains.

The nutraceutical role of omija (Schizandra chinensis Baillon) water extract (OWE) was determined through the analysis of antioxidant activity, nitrite scavening activity, and xanthine oxdiase and $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory effects. Antioxidant activity of OWE was measured by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase-like activity (SODA). DPPH radical scavenging activity and SODA increased in a dose-dependent manner, and was about 49.0% at 2.5 mg/mL and 69.2% at 5 mg/mL, respectively. The xanthine oxidase and $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory activities of OWE were about 88.8% and 86.2% at 1 mg/mL, respectively. Nitrite scavenging activity of OWE was about 54.9%, 42.4%, and 34.2% on pH 1.2, 3.0, and 6.0 at 1 mg/mL, respectively. These results suggest that OWE has a strong antioxidant activity, and xanthine oxidase and $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitory effects.

This study was conducted to analyze the cytotoxic effects of butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and propyl gallate (PG) in WB-F344 rat liver epithelial cells. Here we measured the inhibition level of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) and elucidated the relationships between GJIC and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as ERK, JNK, and p38. The cytotoxicities of BHT and PG appeared at concentrations of 1.0mM and 0.25mM, respectively, in the WB-F344 cells; and GJIC inhibition, which was analyzed by a scrape-loading/dye transfer assay and Western blotting analysis, appeared at 0.6mM for BHT and 0.1mM for PG, respectively. Also, the phosphorylations of Cx43, ERK, JNK, and p38 increased in dose-dependent manners. This suggests that BHT and PG treatments inhibited GJIC by the phosphorylation of MAPKs prior to cell damage.

Estrogen can promote or inhibit cellular proliferation depending on tissue cell types and physiological condition and acts through the signal transduction pathways mediated primarily by estrogen receptors. This study examined the effects of fulvestrant (Ful), a well-known antagonist for the estrogen receptor, on the action of $17{\beta}$-estradiol (E2) with respect to the proliferation and apoptosis of Chinese hamster ovarian (CHO) cells. We used different concentrations of E2, Ful, and E2 plus Ful during different treatment durations. Treatment with 15-40 ${\mu}M$ E2 significantly inhibited proliferation in a time-dependent manner, although it had no influence in concentrations up to 1 ${\mu}M$. Interestingly, Ful at 10-40 ${\mu}M$ also inhibited cellular proliferation in both a concentration- and time-dependent manner. In addition, Ful enhanced rather than decreased the inhibitory effect on cellular proliferation by E2 in combined treatment for 10 days. Thus, Ful does not appear to have an antagonistic effect on estrogen's anti-proliferative action in CHO cells. In TUNEL assays to confirm DNA fragmentation by E2 and/or Ful, CHO cells treated with 20 ${\mu}M$ E2 showed a TUNEL-positive reaction in most DAPI-stained nuclei, and cells treated with either 40 ${\mu}M$ Ful or 40 ${\mu}M$ Ful plus 20 ${\mu}M$ E2 also exhibited a TUNEL-positive reaction but at a lower rate compared to the E2-treated cells. These results indicate that Ful does not have an antagonistic effect on estrogen's anti-proliferative action in CHO cells, suggesting that the anti-proliferative and apoptosis-related mechanism(s) through DNA fragmentation by E2 and Ful may be mediated by different signal transduction pathways.

In this study, the methods of sedimentation reduction for the estuary barrage were analyzed using the CCHE2D bed change model. Especially, the effectiveness of sediment dredging currently applied in the field was evaluated quantitatively and also the channel contraction method which is a substitute method was analyzed for the Nakdong River Estuary Barrage (NREB). The numerical model was calibrated and validated for the sediment transport equations and transport modes. In the NREB case, the Ackers and White formula and bed load type was the most similar to the field condition. As a results of the dredging simulation, there was the sedimentation reduction effect of 0.2 m in the bed changes. Furthermore, the analysis result of the channel contraction method represented that the sedimentation reduction effects of the average 0.4 m and the maximum 2.0 m were produced.

Ixeris dentata extracts exllibited antimicrobial activity against some bacteria and fungi. Also EtOH extracts showed strong antioxidant activity and RC$_{50}$ value was 28 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. The inhibitory effect of Ixeris dentata on the mutagenicity in Salmonella and cytotoxicity on cancer cell were studied. Ixeris dentata extracts showed anti-mutagenic effects of 78.83 and 75.96% on B(a)P in S. typhimurium TA98 and Th100, respectively. These extracts showed 78.72% antimutagenicity on TA100 against MNNG. The Ixeris dentata extract with strong antimutagenic activities was further fractionated by hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol and water. Butanol fraction was found to be highest in antimutagenic activity against MNNG than the other fractions. Butanol fraction of Ixreis dentate revealed the highest cytotoxicity against AS49 human lung carcinoma cells in which cell growth was inhibited by 93.75% at 375 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. Hexane fraction of ixeris dentate exhibited 68.56% inhibition against MCF-7 human breast adenocarcinoma cells at 500 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. Hexane fraction of Ixeris dentata exhibited 84.91% inhibition against Hep 3B human hepatocellular carcinoma cells at 500 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL. From these results, it is considered that Ixeris dentata has strong antimutagenic and anticancer effects in vitro. However, these extracts and fractions did not show any cytotoxic effect against 293 cells.

A new treatment of cell-interface flux in AUSM-type methods is introduced to reduce the numerical dissipation. Through analysis of TVD limiters, a criterion for the more accurate prediction of cell-interface state is found out and M-AUSMPW+ is developed by determining the transferred property newly and appropriately within the criterion. The superiority of M-AUSMPW+ is clearly revealed in multi-dimensional flow problems. It can eliminate numerical dissipation effectively in a non-flow aligned grid system. As a result, M-AUSMPW+ is shown to be much more accurate and effective than other previous schemes in multi-dimensional problems. Through a stationary contact discontinuity, a vortex flow, a shock wave/boundary layer interactions and viscous shock tube problems, it is verified that accuracy of M-AUSMPW+ is improved.
