General information is summarized, that is necessary to introduce a scientific assessment of the human health and exposure issue concerning dioxin and dioxin-like compound. Scientific literatures were reviewed to assess the background exposures to the dioxin-like compounds for normal residents. Epidemiologic studies were also reviewed to assess malignant and nonmalignant sweets of dioxins. In 1997, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) as a human carcinogen, primarily based on occupational cohort studies. The US Environmental Protection Agency made the same decision in it's Draft Dioxin Reassessment. Epidemiologic evidences point to a generalized excess of all cancers, without any pronounced excess at specific sites. Reported non-cancer effects included a range of conditions affecting most systems. Among them, chloracne, elevation in gamma glutamyl transferase(GGT), and alterations in reproductive hormones are related to TCDO, Other adverse outcomes, such as lipid concentrations, diabetes, circulatory and heart diseases, immunologic disorders, neurobehavioral effects, and developmental outcomes require further study before their respective relationships to TCDD can be more definitively assessed.

The purpose of this study was to develop and examine the effect of flipped learning in hand sewing practice. The flipped learning class was designed to three steps(pre-class, in-class, after-class). Pre-class: Students learned kinds of hand sewing by watching video and ppt. In-class: Students were evaluated for their prior learning through the quiz. After the quiz, instructor had a brief hand sewing demonstration. Then basic hand sewing practice was progressed. After that advanced project(making things using more than 3 kinds of hand sewing methods) was progressed. After-class: Students were evaluated each other through project exhibition. The effectiveness of flipped learning was measured based on the students' self-reflective journals and class awareness surveys. As the results, students were actively participated in flipped learning and satisfied with the overall quality of the flipped learning class. They said that videos, project & feedback were helpful in understanding hand sewing. Flipped learning applied to hand sewing practice showed more positive learning effect than the general practice class.

HCFC-22 (chlorodifluoromethane, $CHClF_2$), one of the major components in various refrigeration, is emitted mostly from developing countries, as its consumption is not limited until 2013 by the Montreal Protocol. In addition, HFC-23 (trifluoromethane, $CHF_3$), a by-product in the manufacture of HCFC-22, is also a powerful greenhouse gas. Here, we discuss the regional emission characteristics of these compounds based on high-frequency in-situ measurements using the "Medusa" GC-MS system. HCFC-22 and HFC-23 baseline concentrations measured at Gosan (Jeju Island, Korea) from November 2007 to December 2008 increased by 1.8 ppt/yr and 0.6 ppt/yr, respectively. Pollution events of these compounds were observed, very frequently (e.g., ~2~3 times) at Gosan than baseline levels. All the measurement data were divided into four groups by simultaneously considering the ratio (HFC-23/HCFC-22) and concentration (HCFC-22) at Trinidad Head (TH, California, USA). The residence time of trajectories were then analyzed in each of the four groups. The results exhibited the existence of a strong correlation with air mass origin for each group: 1) Air masses originating from Siberia in the north and from the Pacific in the south had ratios of 0.08~0.12 and concentrations of 196.9~254.3 ppt which is highly comparable to background air at TH. 2) Air masses passing over the Southern China exhibited similar ratios but higher HCFC-22 concentrations. 3) Air masses passing over the Northern China had ratios of 0.12~0.21. 4) Air masses passing over Korea and/or Japan had ratios of 0.01~0.08. Our results suggest that the HFC-23/HCFC-22 ratio can be used as a good indicator for the assessment of the pollution with Chinese origin. We also confirmed differences in air masses traveling over Northern and Southern China, most likely due to differences in air mass travelling speed over these regions before arriving at Gosan. This signature may be treated as one of the critical components in identifying the emission sources from different parts of China.

Growth and tetraspore release pattern of lithophyllum yessoense (Rhodophyta, Corallinaceae) were investigated from March 2000 to July 2001. Pinkish tetraspores were 40.2 $\pm$ 0.4 $\mu$m in diameter. After release, tetraspores attached on substrate shortly. Culture conditions were five temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20, 25^{\circ}C), four irradiances (0, 20, 50, 100 $\mu$mol${\cdot}m^{-2}$${\cdot}s^{-1}$) and six salinities (0, 9, 17, 25, 34, 43 ppt). Maximum growth of gametophyte was occurred at $20^{\circ}C$, $20{\mu}mol\;m^{-2}$${\cdot}s^{-1}$, 16: 8h (L:D) and 34 put. Maximum relative growth rate was 0.1232 at $20^{\circ}C$. The amount of tetraspore release showed maximum at September as 266 cells per crust area ($cm^2$), and tetraspores did not release from January to March.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of walking on a treadmill while using dynamic functional electrical stimulation (Dynamic FES) on functional ability and gait in chronic stroke patients. This was a prospective, randomized controlled study. Twelve patients with chronic stroke (>24 months) who were under grade 3 in dorsiflexor strength with manual muscle test were included and randomized into intervention (Dynamic FES) ($n_1$=7) and control (FES) ($n_2$=5). Both the Dynamic FES group and FES group were given a neuromuscular development treatment. The Dynamic FES group has implemented a total of 60 minutes of exercise treatment and gait training with Dynamic FES application. The FES group, with the addition of applying FES while sitting, has also implemented a total of 90 minutes of gait training on treadmill after the exercise treatment. Both two groups accomplished the program, twice a week, for a total of 24 times in a 12-week period. Exercise treatment, gait training on treadmill, and both Dynamic FES and FES were implemented for 30 minutes each. Korean version activities-specific balance confidence scale (K-ABC) was measured to determine self-efficacy in balance function. Timed up and go (TUG) test was performed to evaluate the physical performance. K-ABC, TUG, Berg balance scale (BBS), modified physical performance test (mPPT) and G-walk were evaluated at baseline and at 12 weeks. After 12 weeks, statistically significant differences (p<.05) were apparent in the Dynamic FES group in the changes in K-ABC and BBS. mPPT, TUG, gait speed, stride length and stance phase duration (%) were compared with the FES group. K-ABC had higher correlation to BBS, along with mPPT to TUG. Our results suggest that walking with Dynamic FES in chronic stroke patients may be beneficial for improving their balance confidence, functional ability and gait.

The process to acquire intron-GUS gene-expressed transformants from somatic embryos (including embryogenic calli) of Rosa hybrida cv. 'Sweet Yellow' using Agrobacterium-meditated transformation method was reported in this study. Somatic embryos including embryogenic calluses were infected with Agrobacterium tumefaciens AGL1 strain (O.D = 0.7~1.6) including intron-GUS gene for 30 min, and were co-cultured for 3 days. After co-cultivation, they were cultured on embryo germination medium (EGM) supplemented with $250\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ cefotaxim at $4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. Then, transient GUS gene expression was observed. Shoots were regenerated from the shoot primodia induced from the intron-GUS gene-transferred either somatic embryos or embryogenic calli cultured on EGM supplemented with both cefotaxim $250\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and ppt $2\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. Before induction of rooting from shoots cultured on shoot growing medium supplemented with both cefotaxim $250\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and ppt $2\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$, the shoots were cultured on multi-shoot induction medium supplemented with both cefotaxim $250\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ and ppt $2\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ to induce multi-shoots. When expression of the gene from a part of the multi-shoots was identified by GUS transient assay, the putative transgenic multishoots were transferred to rooting medium supplemented with cefotaxim $250\;mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$. After the formation of healthy roots, transgenic plantlets were transferred to the greenhouse after acclimatization. The expression rate of the intron-GUS gene in the multi-shoots was 100%.

지구상의 대기환경 중에 가스상의 형태로 존재하는 황화합물은 크게 두 가지 유형으로 분류된다. 인류의 산업활동과 같은 여러 유형의 인위적 배출원을 통해 배출되는 황화합물의 절대적인 부분을 차지하며 가스상 산화물의 형태로 존재하는 이산화황과 같은 성분은 인위적 기원의 황성분을 대표한다 (Spiro et al., 1992). 그런데 이들과 달리 자연적인 조건에서 생물활동의 결과로 지구의 대기환경 중으로 유입되는 황화합물들은 그 종류가 다양할 뿐 아니라, 산화도가 낮은 환원황화합물 (reduced sulfur compounds)의 형태로 존재한다.

In this paper, an effective peak power reduction scheme for a downlink OFDM-CDMA system is proposed. Using the partial parallel transform(PPT) structure, peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR) can be reduced. The patterns of inputs of Inverse Fast Fourier Transform(IFFT) are more randomized in this structure by allotting the subcarriers to each users. At the cost of complexity we can obtain reduced PAPR and multiple access interference(MA) Computer simulations are carried out from the viewpoint of PAPR and demonstrated the improved PAPR performance.
