BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Chronic ultraviolet (UV) exposure-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) are commonly involved in the pathogenesis of skin damage by activating the metalloproteinases (MMP) that break down type I collagen. Adenophora remotiflora (AR) is a perennial wild plant that inhabits Korea, China, and Japan. The present study investigated the protective effects of AR against UVB-induced photo-damage in keratinocytes. MATERIALS/METHODS: An in vitro cell-free system was used to examine the scavenging activity of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical and nitric oxide (NO). The effect of AR on ROS formation, antioxidant enzymes, elastase, MMP-1 level, and mRNA expression of MMP-1 were determined in UVB-irradiated human keratinocyte HaCaT cells. RESULTS: AR demonstrated strong DPPH free radical and NO scavenging activity in a cell-free system exhibiting $IC_{50}$ values of 1.88 mg/mL and 6.77 mg/mL, respectively. AR pretreatment dose-dependently attenuated the production of UVB-induced intracellular ROS, and antioxidant enzymes (catalase and superoxide dismutase) were enhanced in HaCaT cells. Furthermore, pretreatment of AR prevented UVB-induced elastase and collagen degradation by inhibiting the MMP-1 protein level and mRNA expression. Accordingly, AR treatment elevated collagen content in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. CONCLUSION: The present study provides the first evidence of AR inhibiting UVB-induced ROS production and induction of MMP-1 as a result of augmentation of antioxidative activity in HaCaT human keratinocytes. These results suggest that AR might act as an effective inhibitor of UVB-modulated signaling pathways and might serve as a photo-protective agent.

우리나라에서 단일품목으로 가장 큰 수출품인 마른 김은 현재 우리나라의 시장 사정상 대량생산에 중점을 둔 상황이다. 이는 자연스럽게 마른 김의 품질하락으로 이어졌다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 마른 김 생산 시에 기존에 사용자의 경험에 의존하여 김 혼합 비율을 맞추는 방식을 포토센서(IR sensor)를 이용한 보다 효율적으로 조절하는 방식을 제안하였다. 또한 광원을 발생시키는 IR LED Lamp와 농도를 검출하는 포토센서 등을 통하여 얻어진 1차 영상정보들을 바탕으로 실시간으로 김 혼합물 농도를 판단할 수 있는 임베디드 측정 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 방식에서는 정밀한 데이터를 실시간으로 수집 저장함으로써 매년 겨울마다 반복되는 작업 환경에서 이전 연도의 데이터를 확인하여 보다 손쉽게 대처할 수 있게 한다.

As the interest on popular culture has began to be expanded to a general living culture through 'Korean Wave(韓流)' and is in profess of the 'strategy to support Korean(韓) brand' to enhance our cultural standard and create a worldwide brand value in traditional culture. The purpose of this thesis is to make suggestion for production of an effective and differentiated advertisement photo in Korean(韓) brand fashion product on the basis of a Korean image. First, the Korean image is like the unique culture or history in Korea which enables us to feel our identity such as Korean clothes, houses, Hangul. Especially it was found out that the characteristic of a traditional costume in our country included a natural beauty, neatness, purity and calmness, etc and positive intention was expressed on a production of a fashion, photo, graphic of a Korean image.

Generally, the build-up printed circuit board manufactured by a sequential process involving etching, plating, drilling, etc, which requires many types of equipments and long lead time. Etching process is suitable for mass production, however, it is not adequate for manufacturing a prototype in the development stage. In this study, we introduce a screen printing technology for prototyping a build-up printed circuit board. As for the material, photo/thermal curable resin and conductive paste are used for the formation of dielectric and conductor. The build-up structure is made by subsequent processes such as formation of a liquid resin thin layer, solidification by a UV/IR light, and via hole filling with a conductive paste. By use of photo curable resin, productivity is greatly enhanced compared with thermal curable resin. Finally, the basic concept and the possibility of build-up printed circuit board prototyping are proposed in comparison with the conventional process.

Photosynthesis of plants is effective in the range of 550 to 700 nm of the wavelength of solar irradiation. If the conversion of ultraviolet to the above mentioned region is possible, the photosynthesizing ability is expected to be enhanced. $Eu^{3+}$ doped soda-lime bulk and $TiO_2-SiO_2$ sol-gel coated glasses were prepared and their spectroscopic properties were studied. The absorption and emission spectra for the specimens were measured with the changes of wavelength and Eu ion concentration in the range of the wavelength of 300 to 700nm. The transmittance intensity of visible light through the bulk glass and the coated one was unchanged with the addition of Eu element. The emission spectrum intensity of $Eu^{3+}$ was found to be the maximum at 618 nm which is a transition of $^5DO{\rightarrow}^7F_2$. Additionally, it was shown that the intensity was linearly increased up to 10% of the Eu concentration.

본 연구에서는 한국에서 육종한 신육성품종 그린볼 사과 껍질 추출물(GBE)이 피부 광노화 인자조절에 대한 억제효과를 확인하였다. 피부에서 광노화 인자 조절에 대한 억제 효과를 확인하기 위해 CCD986sk fibrobalst cell에 UVB로 광노화를 유도시킨 후 세포에 GBE를 처리하였다. 광노화 인자 조절 효과를 측정한 결과 GBE가 COL1A2, MMP-1, MMP-9, TIMP-1 단백질 발현량에서 UVB에 의해 자극된 MMP-1, MMP-9 단백질 합성을 억제하였으며, COL1A2, TIMP-1 단백질의 경우 발현량이 유의적으로 증가하는 것을 확인하였다. Photoaging-related factors인 COL1A2, MMP-1, MMP-9, HAS2, TGF-β, TIMP-1의 mRNA 발현량을 측정한 결과 GBE에 의해 MMP-1, MMP-9 단백질 발현을 효과적으로 억제하였으며, MMPs와 type procollagen 발현에 관여하는 조절인자인 TIMP-1과 TGF-β의 발현량이 증가함에 따라 COL1A2의 생성량이 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 피부를 구성하는 구조 단백질 중 하나인 hyaluronic acid 생성에 관여하는 HAS2의 발현량 증가도 확인하였다. 따라서 GBE는 광노화의 인자 억제 조절에 대한 우수한 효능을 가졌으며, 피부 노화를 예방하는 기능성 소재로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

Transparent conductive oxide (TCO) is an important part in the construction of dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) because of its low sheet resistance, sufficient light transparent ability and high photoelectrical response as a porous photo-electrode material of DSCs. However, the use of TCO for the two DSC electrodes can result in significant cost increase for the less effective DSCs compared to Si based solar cell. Therefore, the replacement of TCO is required for the commercial production of DSCs. In this study, TCO electrodes are replaced by stainless steel mesh. The 3.44[%] efficiency of the prepared TCO-less DSCs sample was obtained.

The structural and electrical properties of microcrystalline silicon films were investigated by hot wire chemical vapor deposition(HWCVD) often called catalytic chemical vapor deposition(Cat-CVD). The Si microcrystalline phase is easily controlled by changing the rate of the silane concentration of $SiH_4$ to $H_2$ during deposition. The Structural property was observed by Raman and SEM. Photo-conductivity and dark conductivity, and photo-sensitivity were observed by Sunsimulator (AM 1.5 illumination). The film color was changed by the variation of silane concentration. HWCVD is useful for the formation of Si thin films for solar cell and needs further commercialized development for mass production.
