Chewing simulator, which can partly mimic the motion of chewing motion of human, has been successfully developed. The purpose of its development was to make a new machine which can anticipate the clinical results of restoration in the human teeth more accurately in vitro condition It is composed of 4 major parts, chewing part, motor part, water bath, controlling part. The controlling part control the chewing force, frequency, the temperature and running time of water. Additionally, the actual chewing force and remaining time is shown in the monitor of controlling part. At present, the chewing cycle is composed depending on the pre-published data of foreign people. Long term clinical data should be additionally collected for the simulator to mimic the clinical results more accurately.

Differentiating central vestibulopathy from more common vestibular disorders is crucial because it often necessitates different treatment strategies, and early detection can help to minimize potential complications. Isolated nodular infarct is one of the central brain lesions that can mimic peripheral vertigo. We present a case of isolated nodular infarct that had been misdiagnosed as vestibular neuritis on the contralateral side at the initial evaluation. The patient was successfully treated with anticoagulants and antihyperlipidemic agents. Clinicians should keep in mind that some causes of central vertigo mimic peripheral vestibulopathy at the early stage.

We suggest Q-band MEMS MIMIC (Millimeter wave Monolithic Integrated Circuit) HEMT Oscillator using DAML (Dielectric-supported Airgapped Mcrostrip Line) structure. We elevated the signal lines from the substrate using dielectric post, in order to reduce the substrate dielectric loss and obtain low losses at millimeter-wave frequency. These DAML are composed with heist of $10\;{\mu}m$ and post size with $20\;{\mu}m\;{\times}\;20\;{\mu}m$. The MEMS oscillator was successfully integrated by the process of $0.1\;{\mu}m$ GaAs PHEMTs, CPW transmission line and DAML. The phase noise characteristic of the MEMS oscillator was improved more than 7.5 dBc/Hz at a 1 MHz offset frequency than that of the CPW oscillator And the high output power of 7.5 dBm was measured at 34.4 GHz.

Lesion mimic mutant (LMM) plants display spontaneous necrotic lesions on their leaves without any pathogenic infection. Specific rice LMMs designated as spotted leaf (spl) including spl1, spl3, spl4, spl5 and spl6 are genetically known as lesion resembling disease (lrd) mutant. The inheritance patterns in the $F_1$ and $F_2$ progenies of these mutants are controlled by recessive genetic factors. Lesion development in the rice LMMs were controlled by both development stages and environmental factors. The rice LMMs exhibited higher numbers of spots under $45^{\circ}C$ temperature than those under $30^{\circ}C$. Contents of chlorophyll were drastically reduced at 60 days old LMM leaves when the spot formation was severe. The levels of endogenous hydrogen peroxide were highest at 45 days old mutants but reduced at 60 days old. Transcription levels of stress related genes including thioredoxin peroxidase and protein disulfide isomerase were reduced in spotted leaves than those of non spotted leaves. It could be suggested that scavenging system against reactive oxygen species induced by either stresses or innate metabolisms may not work properly in the rice LMMs. As these rice LMMs autonomously expressed clear lesions of lrd phenotype without pathogen infection, it could be useful to understand stresses responses in plants.

The purpose of this study is to observe the movements of Five Mimic-Animal Boxing(FAB) by the "three barrier in the back" of Donguibogam. The subject of this study is observation of the movements of FAB according to practice. The term of training FAB is two years and six months. By the theory of "three barrier in the back" in Donguibogam, we analyzed the movements of FAB. The standard of judgement was the union of the basic point in the arm and leg & the action point in three barrier in the back. The study results were as follows. The movements of FAB operated on the three barrier in the back. The preliminary exercise operated on one, two, trree barrier in the back. And moreover the remainder exercise operated on one, two, trree barrier in the back. The movements of FAB operated on the three barrier in the back for the circulation of vital essence and energy. FAB is the very important Gigong exercise on opening the three barrier in the back.

MR compatible coaxial-slot antenna for microwave hyperthermia was developed while its structure and size of each part were determined by computer simulation using finite element method(FEM). Its local heating performance was evaluated using tissue-mimic phantom and swine muscles. 2% agarose gel mixed with 6mM/$\ell$ $MnCl_2$ as a biological tissue-mimic phantom was heated by the proposed antenna driven by a 2.45GHz microwave generator. The temperature changes of the phantom were monitored using multi-channel digital thermometer at the distance of 0mm, 5mm, 10mm and 20mm from the tip center of the antenna. Also muscle tissue of swine was heated for 2 and 5minutes with 50W and 30W of microwave generator powers, respectively, to evaluate the local heating performance of the antenna. MRI compatibility was also verified by acquiring MR images and MR temperature map. MR signals were acquired from the agarose gel phantom using $T2^*$ GRE sequence with 1.5T clinical MRI scanner(Signa Echospeed, GE, Milwaukee, WI, U.S.A.) at Pusan Paik Hospital and were transferred to PC in order to reconstruct MR images and temperature map using proton resonance frequency(PRF) method and laboratory-developed phase unwrapping algorithm. Authors found that it has no severe distortion due to the antenna inserted into the phantom. Finally, we can conclude that the suggested coaxial-slot antenna has an excellent local heating performance for both of tissue-mimic phantom and swine muscle, and it is compatible to 1.5T MRI scanner.

Panax ginseng C.A.Meyer,1 to 5 years old were electrophored and were stained for SOD activity. The result indicated a total of 13 distinct form of the enzyme and the pattern of achromatic bands were not different according to ages. Nine of the enzyme activities were eliminated with cyanide or peroxide treatment and were resistant to treatment of chloroform plus ethanol. It suggested that they may be cupro-zinc containing SOD, whereas four were cyanide or peroxide resistant and were eliminated with cholroform plus ethanol treatment. They may be manganese containing SOD. Ginseng roos. 1 to 5 years old were analyzed for their SOD measurement of SOD activities of all extracts, the significant difference of SOD activities were not shown according to ages. All ginseng extracts had the total SOD activities of all extracts, the significant difference of SOD activities were not shown according to ages. All ginseng extracts had the total SOD activities of about 700-800 unit/g of fresh weight. Therefore, the SOD activities from SOD-mimic compounds were higher than one from SOD. The ratio between the SOD activity from SOD-mimic compounds and one from true SOD was approximately 2:1 to 3:1.
