강판 표면 결함은 강판의 품질과 가격을 결정하는 중요한 요인 중 하나로, 많은 철강 업체는 그동안 검사자의 육안으로 강판 표면 결함을 확인해왔다. 그러나 시각에 의존한 검사는 통상 30% 이상의 판단 오류가 발생함에 따라 검사 신뢰도가 낮은 문제점을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 Simultaneous MTS (S-MTS) 알고리즘을 적용하여 보다 지능적이고 높은 정확도를 갖는 새로운 강판 표면 결함 진단 시스템을 제안하였다. S-MTS 알고리즘은 단일 클래스 분류에는 효과적이지만 다중 클래스 분류에서 정확도가 떨어지는 기존 마할라노비스 다구찌시스템 알고리즘(Mahalanobis Taguchi System; MTS)의 문제점을 해결한 새로운 알고리즘이다. 강판 표면 결함 진단은 대표적인 다중 클래스 분류 문제에 해당하므로, 강판 표면 결함 진단 시스템 구축을 위해 본 연구에서는 S-MTS 알고리즘을 채택하였다. 강판 표면 결함 진단 시스템 개발은 S-MTS 알고리즘에 따라 다음과 같이 진행하였다. 첫째, 각 강판 표면 결함 별로 개별적인 참조 그룹 마할라노비스 공간(Mahalanobis Space; MS)을 구축하였다. 둘째, 구축된 참조 그룹 MS를 기반으로 비교 그룹 마할라노비스 거리(Mahalanobis Distance; MD)를 계산한 후 최소 MD를 갖는 강판 표면 결함을 비교 그룹의 강판 표면 결함으로 판단하였다. 셋째, 강판 표면 결함을 분류하는 데 있어 결함 간의 차이점을 명확하게 해주는 예측 능력이 높은 변수를 파악하였다. 넷째, 예측 능력이 높은 변수만을 이용해 강판 표면 결함 분류를 재수행함으로써 최종적인 강판 표면 결함 진단 시스템을 구축한다. 이와 같은 과정을 통해 구축한 S-MTS 기반 강판 표면 결함 진단 시스템의 정확도는 90.79%로, 이는 기존 검사 방법에 비해 매우 높은 정확도를 갖는 유용한 방법임을 보여준다. 추후 연구에서는 본 연구를 통해 개발된 시스템을 현장 적용하여, 실제 효과성을 검증할 필요가 있다.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of microparticles of Socheongryong-tang (SCRT) on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in a mouse model. Methods: The inhalable microparticles containing SCRT were produced by spray-drying with leucine as an excipient, and evaluated with respect to the aerodynamic properties of the powder by Andersen cascade impactor (ACI). Its equivalence to SCRT extract was evaluated using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and a cigarette-smoking (CS)-induced murine COPD model. Results: SCRT microparticles provided desirable aerodynamic properties (fine particle fraction of $49.6{\pm}5.5%$ and mass median aerodynamic diameter of $4.8{\pm}0.3{\mu}m$). SCRT microparticles did not show mortality or clinical signs over 14 days. Also there were no significant differences in body weight, organ weights or serum chemical parameters between SCRT microparticle-treated and non-treated groups. After 14 days the platelet count significantly increased compared with the non-treated group, but the values were within the normal range. Inhalation of SCRT microparticles decreased the rate of neutrophils in blood, granulocytes in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and level of TNF-${\alpha}$ and IL-6 in BALF on COPD mouse model induced by LPS plus CS. This effect was verified by histological findings including immunofluorescence staining of elastin, collagen, and caspase 3 protein in lung tissue. Conclusions: These data demonstrate that SCRT microparticles are equivalent to SCRT extract in pharmaceutical properties for COPD. This study suggests that SCRT microparticles would be a potential agent of inhalation therapy for the treatment of COPD.

Omega-3 fatty acids are a specific type of unsaturated fat that the body cannot manufacture on its own, so they must be obtained from food which is essential fatty acids (EFAs). Omega-3 fatty acids consist of three types which are a-Linolenic Acid (ALA), Eicosapentaenoic (ELA), and Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). Especially, EFAs help to prevent skin and hair drying, acne, eczema, prevention from allergies, brittle nails, rashes, and tiny lumps. The aim of this study is to investigate improvement and protection for hair damaged by chemical treatment with omega-3 formulated shampoo. We selected virgin hair sample and divided into two groups for bleaching once and three times and then damaged hair by changing the number of hair bleaching (twice with interval of 15 minutes). Each bleached hair was treated by five different kinds of shampoo (Control, Horse shampoo, DHA shampoo, EPA shampoo, Omega-3 shampoo mixture). Apart from this, EPA/DHA 2, 5, 8, 10 and 12% shampoo were prepared and treated to hair for comparing rate of progress in damaged hair. To quantify improved condition of damaged hair, we performed Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) for ultrastructure of damaged hair fraction, measurement of thickness change and BCA Protein Assay for recovery rate of damaged hair. The moisture in hair was measured by Thermal analysis machine. In results, we observed the particle of hair surface damaged by bleaching treatment were well improved with treatment with EPA and DHA shampoo. Also, quantity of protein was lowered with higher concentration of EPA & DHA i.e., 8 and 12 % then compared with horse oil shampoo in three times treatment group. It shows that bleached hair have been recovered by treating rapidly and get protective coat. In conclusion, EPA and DHA shampoo improved damaged hair, especially with EPA / DHA 12% shampoo. Also, EPA shampoo could protect the damaged hair depending on increasing concentration of EPA. Therefore, we conclude omega-3 shampoo could make damaged hair protect and get healthy hair environment.

본 연구를 통해서 총 16개의 최종적인 무균포장죽의 묘사특성-향(구수한, 묵은밥, 수돗물, 누룽지 사탕), 맛(단맛, 쓴맛), 풍미(쌀밥, 묵은밥, 금속성, 누룽지 사탕), 조직감(끈적임, 쌀알 퍼짐, 쌀알 거친 정도, 가루끼, 텁텁함), 외관(죽의 묽고 된 정도)-이 도출되었다. 차후의 쌀죽 관련 관능 및 제품 개발 연구에서 이러한 묘사 특성, 정의 및 평가 방법이 적용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다. SW62 품종의 독특한 특성은 누룽지 사탕 향/풍미가 품종의 독특한 특성이라 나타났다. 구수한 향/풍미와 단맛을 전달할 가능성이 높은 품종 분석되었으며, 쌀 스낵 가공에 적합할 것으로 보인다. 소비자 조사결과 품종간의 통계적인 유의차는 밝혀지지 않았으나 SW 52와 SR의 기호도가 전반적으로 높으며, 주성분 분석에서도 소비자 기호도 경향성의 방향을 보여주고 있다. 또한 군집분석을 통해서 죽을 좋아하는 그룹에서 가장 높은 기호도를 보여주어서, 무균포장죽 가공에는 SW52와 SR이 적합하다고 사료된다. SW63의 경우 기호도 평가에서 낮은 평가를 받았으며 주성분 분석을 통해서도 뚜렷한 소비자 선호도 경향성을 보여주지 못하여, 무균포장죽 가공에는 적합하지 않은 품종으로 보인다. 밥의 소비자 기호도 영향인자 도출 결과와 마찬가지로 흰쌀죽에서도 소비자 기호도에 주된 영향을 미치는 묘사 특성은 무균포장죽의 부정적인 요소와 관련이 있었다. 초콜릿 음료수 같은 기호 식품이 아닌 늘 소비하는 주식의 개념을 가진 식품에서는 부정적인 요소를 제거하는 것이 중요한 것으로 보인다. Liking factor(묵은밥 향/풍미, 밥알 뭉개짐)를 강화하는 방향보다는 제품이 가지고 있는 disliking factor(쓴맛, 밥알 표면 거친 정도, 끈적임, 금속성 풍미, 구수한 향, 점도)를 제거 또는 최소화하는 품종의 선택이 무균포장죽의 연구개발 방향이라 사료된다.

Both metabolic syndrome (MetS) and elevated LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) increase the risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). We hypothesized that low HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) would further increase CVD risk in women having both conditions. To assess this, we recruited 89 women with MetS (25-72 y) and LDL-C ${\geq}$ 2.6 mmol/L. To determine whether plasma HDL-C concentrations were associated with dietary components, circulating atherogenic particles, and other risk factors for CVD, we divided the subjects into two groups: high HDL-C (H-HDL) (${\geq}$ 1.3 mmol/L, n=32) and low HDL-C (L-HDL) (< 1.3 mmol/L, n=57). Plasma lipids, insulin, adiponectin, apolipoproteins, oxidized LDL, Lipoprotein(a), and lipoprotein size and subfractions were measured, and 3-d dietary records were used to assess macronutrient intake. Women with L-HDL had higher sugar intake and glycemic load (P< 0.05), higher plasma insulin (P< 0.01), lower adiponectin (P< 0.05), and higher numbers of atherogenic lipoproteins such as large VLDL (P < 0.01) and small LDL (P<0.001) than the H-HDL group. Women with L-HDL also had larger VLDL and both smaller LDL and HDL particle diameters (P<0.001). HDL-C was positively correlated with LDL size (r=0.691, P<0.0001) and HDL size (r=0.606, P<0.001), and inversely correlated with VLDL size (r=-0.327, P<0.01). We concluded that L-HDL could be used as a marker for increased numbers of circulating atherogenic lipoproteins as well as increased insulin resistance in women who are already at risk for CVD.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical properties of experimental composite resins made with the spherical and crushed fillers. The 14 experimental composite resins containing 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25%(w/w) in spherical filler group and 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70%(w/w) in crushed filler group, incorporated in a Bis-GMA matrix (Aldrich Co., USA), were made with 1% ${\gamma}$-methoxy silane treated fillers. The polymer matrix was made by dissolving 0.7%(w/w) of benzoyl peroxide(Janssen Chemical Co. Japan) in methacrylate monomer, whereupon 0.7%(v/v) N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine(Tokyo Kasei Co. Japan) was added to the monomer. The weight percentage of each specific particle size distribution could be determined from a knowledge of the specific gravity, the weight(w/w), and corresponding volume %(v/v) of the filler sample in resin monomer. In crushed silica group and spherical silica group, the diametral tensile strengths and compressive strengths were measured with Instron Testing Machine(No.4467), and analyzed in 14 experimental composite resins made by filler fractions. The shear bond strength of 14 experimental composite resins to bovine enamel was measured with universal testing machine(Instron No.4467). The fracture surfaces were sputter-coated with a gold film and investigated by SEM. The results were as follows; 1. The diametral tensile strength was tendency to increase in crushed silica group, but not in spherical silica group. The highest diametral tensile strength was found in 20% filler fractions of two groups. 2. The compressive strength was higher in 15%(w/w) and 20%(w/w) in spherical silica group than in crushed silica group, but not in spherical silica group. 3. The significant correlation was noticed in increase in shear bond strength in crushed silica group, but not in spherical silica group. 4. The significantly highest shear bond strength was noticed in 50% filler concentration in crushed silica group, and in 15% filler concentration in spherical silica group, it was not significant in relation. 5. In crushed silica group, cut surface of resin matrix and the interface between resin and filler is obvious. In spherical silica group, fractures that occurred through the filler particles were round in shape.

본 연구에서는 수수 등겨에 함유되어 있는 타닌의 새로운 천연 색소자원으로서의 활용 가능성을 알아보기 위해서 추출된 색소의 성분을 조사하였으며, Fe와의 킬레이트 반응 조건과 킬레이트화 색소에 대한 여러 가지 특성이 조사되었다. 수수 등겨로부터 추출된 수용액의 흡수 스펙트럼에서는 자외선 영역인 281 nm에서 타닌에 의한 최대 흡수 peak을 보여주고 있다. pH 조건에 따른 킬레이트화 반응에서는 pH 7.5의 반응 조건이 가장 효과적이었다. Fe 농도 2 mg/L 까지는 킬레이트화 반응이 급격히 증가하나, 그 이상의 농도에서는 더 이상의 추가적인 킬레이트화는 없는 것으로 나타났다 킬레이트화 된 타닌 색소의 입자 크기는 $4.5{\sim}17{\mu}m$, $20{\sim}42{\mu}m$, $45{\sim}80{\mu}m$, $83{\sim}160{\mu}m$ 범위의 네 그룹으로 나누어지는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. DSC 분석에서는 타닌의 킬레이트화에 따라 열분해에 기인한 흡열 peak가 크게 증가($318^{\circ}C{\rightarrow}415^{\circ}C$)한다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었으며, TGA 분석에서도 열분해 시작 온도가 $253^{\circ}C$에서 $382^{\circ}C$까지 상승하는 것을 알 수 있어, 킬레이트화는 열 안정성을 향상시킨다는 것을 확인하였다.

A simple HPLC-DAD method was developed and validated to determine B group vitamin content (thiamine, riboflavin, nicotinamide, pantothenic acid, pyridoxine and folic acid) in supplemented food samples, i.e., infant formula, cereal, low-calorie food, a multi-vitamin pill and a vitamin drink. In this study, the most significant advantages were simultaneous determination of the six B group vitamins in various food matrices and a small number of sample treatment steps that required only an organic solvent, acetonitrile. Moreover, this method prevents reduction of column durability, because the mobile phase does not contain ion-pairing reagents. Analytes were separated on a Develosil RPAQUEOUS $C_{30}$ (4.6 mm ${\times}$ 250 mm, 5 ${\mu}M$ particle size) column with a gradient elution of acetonitrile and 20 mM phosphate buffer (pH 3.0) at a flow rate between 0.8 and 1.0 mL/min. Detection was performed at 275 nm, except for that of pantothenic acid (205 nm). The calibration curves for all six vitamins showed good linearity with correlation coefficients ($r^2$) higher than 0.995. The developed method was validated with respect to linearity, intra- and inter-day accuracy and precision, limit of quantification (LOQ), recovery and stability. The method showed good precision and accuracy, with intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation less than 15% at all concentrations. The recovery was carried out according to the standard addition procedure, with yields ranging from 89.8 to 104.4%. This method was successfully applied to the determination of vitamin B groups in supplemented food products.

Recently a new generation of crown and bridge veneering resins containing submicron glass fillers was introduced. These ultrasmall particle hybrid composite materials distinguish themselves, compared with conventional microfill crown and bridge resins, through improved mechanical properties. It is claimed that these composites are suitable for metal free crowns and even bridges using fiber reinforcement. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of thermal cycling on the tensile strength of the following veneering composites: Artglass(Heraeus Kulzer Co., Wehrheim, Germany), Estonia(Kuraray Co.. Japan), Sculpture(Jeneric Pentron Co., Wallingford, U.S.A.), and Targis(Ivoclar Co., Schaan Liechenstein). According to manufacturer's instructions, rectangular tensile test specimens measuring $1.5{\times}2.0{\times}4.5mm$ were made using a teflon mold. Whole specimens were divided into two groups. One group was dried in a desiccator at $25^{\circ}C$ for 10 days, and another group was subjected to thermal cycling($10,000{\times}$) in water($5/55^{\circ}C$). All test specimens were placed in a universal testing machine and loaded until fracture with a crosshead speed of 0.5mm/min. Weibull analysis and Tukey's test were used to analyze the data. The fracture surfaces of specimens were observed in SEM and the aliphatic C=C absorbance peak of Estenia and Targis resin was analyzed using Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectroscopy. Within the limitations imposed in this study, the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. Both in drying condition and thermal cycling condition, the highest tensile strength was observed in Estenia testing group(p<0.05). 2. The strength data were at to single-mode Weibull distribution, and the Weibull modulus of all veneering composite resin specimens increased after thermal cycling treatment. 3. After thermal cycling test, the highest tensile strength was observed in the Estenia group, and the lowest value was observed in the Targis group. The tensile strength values showed the significant differences between each group(p<0.05) 4. The aliphatic C=C absorbance peak of Estonia and Targis resin was decreased after light curing, and there was no distinct change after thermal cycling.
