Paclitaxel is an important chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of human solid tumors. Multicellular resistance(MCR) is considered to be a major mechanism of resistance of human solid tumors to chemotherapeutic agent such as paclitaxel, which includes barriers to drug penetration through tumor tissues. Multicellular layers(MCL) cultures resemble in vivo tumor condition in terms of MCR and has been used successfully to produce clinically relevant data. In the present study, we evaluated the penetration characteristics and post-penetration anti-proliferative activity of paclitaxel using MCL of human colorectal cancer cells(DLD-1 and HT-29) grown in Transwell inserts. The penetration of $[^{14}C]-paclitaxel$ was slower than that of mannitol which penetrates via paracellular pathway in DLD-1 MCL. The penetration of $[^{14}C]-paclitaxel$ was faster in HT-29 MCL compared to DLD-1 MCL, i.e., at 10 ${\mu}M$ 100% and 40% penetration were observed after 48 hr incubation for HT-29 and DLD-1 cells, respectively. When calculated using anti-proliferative activity in the conditioned media of bottom chamber, the penetration after 24 hr was very limited(less than 50%) and concentration-dependent at the concentrations tested in both MCL's. These results suggest that limited and differential penetration of paclitaxel in tumor tissues may contribute to lower and differential efficacy against human solid tumors.

The characteristics of diesel spray have much effect on the engine performances such as power. fuel consumption rate and emissions. Therefore, the measurement of fuel spray characteristics is very important for the improvement of heat engine. The factors which control diesel spray characteristics are injection pressure, ambient temperature and density etc. Spray behaviors are visualized by using the high speed video camera and spray angle, spray penetration are measured. Experimental equations of spray penetration and spray angle were derived by using the experimental results. 1) Ambient temperature and density influence on the characteristics of diesel spray. 2) Experimental equation of spray penetration is expressed as follows 0＜t＜ $t_{b}$ ; $S_1$=11.628$\Delta$ $P^{0.485}$ $\rho$$_{a}$ $^{-0.478}$ $t^{1.337}$, $t_{b}$ ＜t; $S_2$=7.457$\Delta$ $P^{0.523}$ $\rho$$_{a}$ $^{-0.382}$ $t^{0.548}$ 3) Experimental equation of spray Angie is expressed as follows $T_{a}$ =293K; Tan($\theta$/2)=059($\rho$$_{a}$ / $\rho$$_{f}$ )$^{0.437}$, $T_{a}$ =473K; Tan($\theta$/2)=0588($\rho$$_{a}$ / $\rho$$_{f}$ )$^{0.404}$_{f}$ )$^{0.404}$

Aceclofenac is an non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug which has been used in the treatment of rheumatoidal rthritis and osteo-arthritis. In order to decrease the gastric ulcerogenic effects and contol the plasma level of aceclofenac, we have developed the transdermal delivery system of aceclofenac plaster, which were formulated employing matrix polymers of acrylates and penetration-enhancers such as $Lauroglycol^{\circledR}$, $Transcutol^{\circledR}$, oleic acid and linoleic acid. Using Franz diffusion cells mounted with a rat skin, transdermal penetration characteristics of the formulations were evaluated by the HPLC assay of aceclofenac and diclofenac, an active metabolite, in the receptor compartment of pH 7.2 phosphate buffered solution. Skin penetration was increased when the content of aceclofenac increased, showing the flux $(J,\;{\mu}g/cm^2/hr)$ of 0.37 and 2.50 for 2% and 6.75% of the content, respectively. The flux$(J,\;{\mu}g/cm^2/hr)$ from plasters made of $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2074, $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2510 and $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2097 were 2.50, 2.77 and 4.39, respectively. $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2074 showed the lowest penetration due to the carboxylic acid group in the polymer, which might form a strong hydrogen bonding with a secondary amine of aceclofenac. Although both $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2510 and $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2097 are amine-resistant adhesives, $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 872510 showed lower penetration than $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2097 because of the hydroxyl group in $Durotak^{\circledR}$ 87-2510, which might form a weak hydrogen bonding with aceclofenac. These results reveal that the functional group in acrylic polymers would greatly affect the release of aceclofenac from the matrix, which is the rate-limiting step in the penetration of aceclofenac through rat skins. The penetration of aceclofenac from plasters using different penetration-enhancers increased in the following order: Transcutol < linoleic acid < oleic acid. And the flux from the plasters containing oleic acid as a penetrationenhancer was 2.22 times greater than that of creams, which suggest that a newly deveolped aceclofenac plaster could be used in the treatment of rheumatoidal arthritis and osteo-arthritis as an advanced transdermal delivery system.

This study was carried out to investigate the in vitro and in vivo moisturizing properties and percutaneous absorption of PEG-impregnated Aloe vera gel. The PEG-i-Aloe gel was obtained from dewatering and impregnation by soaking (DIS) of Aloe vera leaf slice. The moisturizing property of the obtained sample was evaluated by moisture determination using gravimetric method in desiccator under different RH% and by water sorption-desorption test on human skin. The transdermal penetration characteristics of PEG-i-Aloe gel was investigated by Franz diffusion cell in vitro transdermal absorption method. PEG-i-Aloe gel had high moisture retention ability and could significantly lead the enhancing skin hydration status as well as reducing the skin water loss due to the film formation as a skin barrier. The skin penetration rate of PEGi- Aloe gel at steady state was 9.76 ${\mu}g/(h{\cdot}cm^2)$ and the quantity of the transdermal absorption was 144 ${\mu}g/cm^2$ in 9 hr. The penetration mechanism was well fitted with Higuchi model ($R^2$ = 0.974-0.994). The results show that PEG-i-Aloe gel has the significant moisturizing effect and strong penetration of the animal skin. It could be used as the moisturizing additive in cosmetic skin products.

The spray characteristics of liquid jet in cross flow with variation of injection angle are numerically studied. Numerical analysis was carried out using KIVA code, which was modified to be suitable for simulating liquid jet ejected into cross flow. Wave model and Kelvin-Helmholtz(KH)/Rayleigh-Taylor(RT) hybrid model were used for the purpose of analyzing liquid column, ligament, and the breakup of droplet. Numerical results were compared with experimental data in order to verify the reliability of the physical model. Liquid jet penetration length, volume flux, droplet velocity profile and SMD were obtained. Penetration length increases as flow velocity decreases and injection velocity increases. From the bottom wall, the SMD increases as vertical distance increases. Also the SMD decreases as injection angle increases.

This experimental study describes atomization characteristics of spray-spray impingement. Effect of the impingement location and angle on the penetration and the sauter mean diameter of the impinged spray were investigated. Experiment were performed under ranging from 50kPa to 250kPa spray pressure, ranging $30^{\circ}C$ to $135^{\circ}C$ angle on the penetration and free spray. In the case of this experimental, sauter mean diameter $D_{32}$ tends to decrease and duration of film disintegration $t_f$ to decrease, when spray pressure and angle on the penetration is increased. Sauter mean diameter $D_{32}$ were about 20% to be smaller compared with a free spray to jet-jet impingement and 30% to be smaller compared with a free spray to spray-spray impingement.

Laser-gas metal arc hybrid welding has been considered as an alternative process of gas metal arc welding for offshore pipe laying. Fiber delivered high power lasers which enable deep penetration welding were recently developed but high power welding characteristics were not fully understood yet. In this study, the influence of shielding gas composition on welding phenomena in high power laser welding was investigated. Bead shapes, melt ejection and dropping were observed after autogenous laser welding with 100% Ar, Ar-20% $CO_2$, Ar-50% $CO_2$, and 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas. Process parameter window was widest with Ar-50% $CO_2$ shielding gas and the penetration was deepest with 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas. The melt dropping was not observed when Ar-50% $CO_2$ or 100% $CO_2$ shielding gas was supplied.

Important characteristics of impinging sprays intersected by a strongly convective gaseous cross flows were experimentally investigated. The breakup processes due to different Weber and Reynolds numbers of liquid and gas streams were visually examined with quantitative measurements of breakup lengths, penetration heights, and droplet sizes. Snapshot images and spay data evidenced that, at lower jet Reynolds number the breakup processes portrays the atomization profiles similar to typical column breakup of single orifice jet. At higher jet Reynolds numbers, disintegration of jet stream is significantly expedited by strong momentum transported from strongly convective gaseous stream. The breakup length and penetration height decreased as the convective flow increase. From the bottom the wall up, the SMD measured the centerline increase. The maximum SMD appeared the top of the SMD distribution
