Antioxidant activity of the ethanol extract from boiled-water of Hizikia fusiformis (EBH) were compared with those of BHA, L-ascorbic acid, gallic acid, caffeic acid and (-)-catechin. The free radical scavenging ability against DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl), authentic peroxynitrite and reducing power were measured as indices of antioxidant activity. EBH showed the potent DPPH radical and peroxynitrite scavenging activities, showing 85.23 and 96.97% at final concentration of $1000{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The reducing power increased with the increasing amount of EBH (final concentration of 1, 10, 100 and $1000{\mu}g/ml$). Total phenolic content of EBH was 588 mg (-)-catechin/g at the final concentration $1000{\mu}g/ml$. Total phenolic contents correlated with DPPH radical scavenging activity $(R^2=0.766)$ and reducing power $(R^2=0.944)$. These results suggested that EBH could be a natural antioxidative source containing antioxidative components.

This study was carried out to develop specific primers for PCR detection of Phellinus linteus. Diverse genomes of 15 Phellinus spp. including five Phellinus linteus isolates were fingerprinted by Primer Universal rice primer(URP)1F. The URP-PCR pattern differentiated P. linteus isolates from other phellinus spp. A polymorphic band(2.8 kb), which is unique for P. linteus isolates, was isolated and sequenced. Twenty four-oligonucleotide primer pairs were designed based on information of DNA sequence. The primer set(PLSPF2/PLSPR1) amplified single band(2.2 kb) of expected size with genomic DNA from seven Phellinus linteus, but not with that of other Phellinus species tested. The primers could be used identically in both DNA samples from mycelium and fruit bodies. This specific primers could offer a useful tool for detecting and identifying P. linteus rapidly.

The radar reflectivity is significantly affected by ground clutter, beam blockage, anomalous propagation (AP), birds, insects, chaff, etc. The quality of radar reflectivity is very important in quantitative precipitation estimation. Therefore, Weather Radar Center (WRC) of Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) employed two quality control algorithms: 1) Open Radar Product Generator (ORPG) and 2) fuzzy quality control algorithm to improve quality of radar reflectivity. In this study, an occurrence of AP echoes and the performance of both quality control algorithms are investigated. Consequently, AP echoes frequently occur during the spring and fall seasons. Moreover, while the ORPG QC algorithm has the merit of removing non-precipitation echoes, such as AP echoes, it also removes weak rain echoes and snow echoes. In contrast, the fuzzy QC algorithm has the advantage of preserving snow echoes and weak rain echoes, but it eliminates the partial area of the contaminated echo, including the AP echoes.

We studied emitting properties of devices fabricated using the spin-coating and Langmuir-Blodgett[LB] technique. The LB technique has the advantage of precise control of the thickness better than spin-coating method. Poly(3-hexylthiophene)[P3HT] LB films used as the emitting layer in light-emitting devices. LB monolayers were deposited 27 layers onto the indium-tin-oxide[ITO] as Y-type films by the vertical dipping method. The thickness is about 80nm. Absorption spectrum of LB films presented that P3HT is regiorandom conformation. Also, current-voltage-luminance characteristics and electroluminescence spectra of light-emitting devices fabricated by LB method is studied. In current-voltage-luminescence characteristics, turn-on voltage of P3HT LB film LEDs is higher than that of spin-coating LEDs. But electroluminescence spectrum is similar to the spin-coating LEDs. The orange-red light was clearly visible in a darkened room.

In this study, petroleum cokes ash and $C_{12}A_7$-based slag were used for the shrinkage reduction and strength enhancement of mortar. The hydration properties of shrinkage reduction agents were analysed. The flow, change of length and compressive strength were experimented with mortar-added shrinkage reduction agents. As a result of this study, petroleum cokes ash : $C_{12}A_7$-based slag = 60~80% : 20~40% showed excellent results. In the case of mortar with 20% $C_{12}A_7$-based slag, the setting time and change of length were similar to Ref. mortar. The flow and compressive strength were superior to Ref. mortar. In the case of mortar with a 40% $C_{12}A_7$-based slag, the setting time was longer than Ref. mortar. The compressive strength of 3 days and 7 days were superior to Ref. mortar.

Bridge engineering documents have essential contents that must be referenced continuously throughout a structure's entire life cycle, but research related to the quality of the contents is still lacking. XML schema matching is an excellent technique to improve the quality of stored data; however, it takes excessive computing time when applied to documents with many contents and a deep hierarchical structure, such as bridge engineering documents. Moreover, it requires a manual parametric study for matching elements' weight factors, maintaining a high matching accuracy. This study proposes an efficient weight-factor determination method based on an artificial neural network (ANN) model using the simplified XML schema-matching method proposed in a previous research to reduce the computing time. The ANN model was generated and verified using 580 data of document properties, weight factors, and matching accuracy. The proposed ANN-based schema-matching method showed superiority in terms of accuracy and efficiency compared with the previous study on XML schema matching for bridge engineering documents.

Thin film filter type 4-channel wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) device was designed and fabricated for the application in optical subscriber loop system. It has multi-mode fiber pigtails and four wavelength division consisting of 0.81, 0.89, 1.2 and 1.3 um. The evaluated performances are 1-2d B of insertion loss(connector loss excluded)and 30-35d B of crosstalk attenuation for all channels. The performance of the fabricated device was tested in the wideband optical transmission experiment, where the SNR degradation due to the crosstalk of the device was found to be within a measurement error.

Purpose : This study investigated the validity of crosswalk signal time length with regards to elderly stroke patients. Methods : We recruited 60 elderly adults sixty years of age or older for our study. The participants were divided into three groups.Group A consisted of 20 healthy participants with no walking aids. Group B consisted of 20 stroke patients with no walking aids. Group C consisted of 20 stroke patients using a cane as a walking aid. We measured the walking times of participants for 7 m, 14 m and 21 m lengths. Results : Using an independent t test, there was a statistically significant difference in the walking times between Group A and Group B for all lengths. There was a statistically significant difference in the walking times between Group A and Group C for all lengths. There was no statistically significant difference in the walking times between Group B and Group C. There was a statistically significant difference between the three group when using ANOVA. Conclusion : From the results of this study, we infer that the signal times at crosswalks are inappropriate for elderly stroke participants who use a cane as a walking aid. Therefore further research should be conducted to determine the appropriate amount of additional time needed for the elderly to safely cross the street.

Objective : Hemophilia, a genetically determined disorder, is characterized by abnormality of the coagulation mechanism due to functional deficiency of a specific factor, namely VIII or IX. In this study, the effect of Dong-Si acupuncture therapy on the cerebral hemorrhage patient with hemophilia was evaluated. Methods : We treated him with acupuncture by stimulating Dong-Si acupuncture point(Yuk Wan) and assessed the effect by using manual dynamic evaluation of MRC(Medical Research Council) and Modified Barthel Index. Results : After treatment, the bleeding tendency was grossly reduced and bleeding lesion was absorbed gradually. And manual dynamic evaluation of the upper extremity increased from 4 grade to 5 grade. Conclusions : This result suggest that Dong-Si acupuncture therapy on the cerebral hemorrhage patient with hemophilia was effective. And futher studies are required to concretely prove the effectiveness of Dong-Si acupuncture therapy for treating hemorrhagic diseases.
