볏짚은 한국에서 매년 대량 생산되는 주요 작물이다. 침지공정을 이용한 목질계 바이오매스의 전처리는 대기압과 $60^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 온화한 조건에서 수행되었다. 본 연구에서는 전처리된 바이오매스의 효소당화 조건을 찾아보았다. 볏짚의 경우에 이전의 목질계 바이오매스와 비교하여 당화시간이 다른 것들보다 짧은 것으로 나타났다. SAA(Soaking in Aqueous Ammonia) 전처리 볏짚의 당화는 40~48시간 사이에 종료가 되었고 $50^{\circ}C$에서 높은 글루코스 전환율을 나타냈다. 글루코스 전환율은 효소사용량이 각각 65 FPU/ml과 32 CbU/ml일 때 높았다. 기질 농도가 5%(w/v)일 때 전환율은 72시간 동안 당화 후에 83.8%로 나타났다. SAA 전처리 볏짚의 동시당화발효(SSF; Simultaneous Saccharification and Fermentation) 실험에서는 $40^{\circ}C$에서 높은 에탄올 생산수율을 보였다. 그때의 수율은 48시간에서 33.05%로 나타났다.

A thermotolerant Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutant strain, TT6, was constructed after multi-parental hybridization of five mutant strains obtained by UV or NTG treatment of the original strain, S. cerevisiae KV1. When incubated at $40^{\circ}C$ in YPD broth, TT6 began to grow exponentially in 10 h, but KV1 did not show any noticeable growth even after 22 h. The thermotolerant growth of TT6 was confirmed by serial dilution assay at $42^{\circ}C$; TT6 grew at a cell concentration ($10^{-5}$) 10,000 times lower than that of KV1 ($10^{-1}$). Whereas ethanol production from YP containing 23% (w/v) glucose by KV1 decreased with increasing temperature from $30^{\circ}C$ to $36^{\circ}C$, ethanol production by TT6 did not decrease at temperatures up to $37^{\circ}C$. When TT6 was tested for ethanol production at $36^{\circ}C$ by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) from 23% corn, 24 h of fermentation time or 50% of the glucoamylase dose was saved when compared with KV1 at $30^{\circ}C$. The ethanol yield from corn by SSF with TT6 at $36^{\circ}C$ was 91.7% of the theoretical yield, whereas that of KV1 at $30^{\circ}C$ was 90.6%.

PURPOSE: This study compared the effects of sit-to-stand training with various foot positions combined with visual feedback on the postural alignment and balance. METHODS: Thirty stroke patients were assigned randomly into three groups of standing with a symmetrical foot position (SSF) (n = 10), asymmetrical foot position with the affected foot at the rear (SAF) (n = 10), and visual feedback and asymmetrical foot position (SVAF) (n = 10). Sit-to-stand training with different foot positions was performed for 30 minutes a day, five times a week, for a total of four weeks, and the effects on postural alignment and balance were assessed. RESULTS: The angle between the midline and scapula peak of the affected side was decreased significantly at sitting and thigh-off in the SAF group and at sitting, thigh-off, and standing in the SVAF group (p < .05). The angle between the midline and scapula peak of the non-affected side was increased significantly at sitting and thigh-off in the SAF group and at sitting, thigh-off, and standing in the SVAF group, the difference in the angle between the scapular peaks of the left and right sides was decreased significantly at sitting and thigh-off in SSF group, and at sitting in SAF group (p < .05). In the SVAF group, the angle at sitting, thigh-off, and standing was decreased significantly (p < .05). A comparison of the balance ability showed that BSS in the SVAF group was improved significantly (p < .05). CONCLUSION: Based on these results, the postural alignment and balance ability were improved in stroke patients who participated in sit-to-stand with visual feedback and asymmetrical foot position training.

Objective: To investigate the usefulness of computed tomography (CT) texture analysis (CTTA) in estimating histologic tumor grade and in predicting disease-free survival (DFS) after surgical resection in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Materials and Methods: Eighty-one patients with a single HCC who had undergone quadriphasic liver CT followed by surgical resection were enrolled. Texture analysis of tumors on preoperative CT images was performed using commercially available software. The mean, mean of positive pixels (MPP), entropy, kurtosis, skewness, and standard deviation (SD) of the pixel distribution histogram were derived with and without filtration. The texture features were then compared between groups classified according to histologic grade. Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards analyses were performed to determine the relationship between texture features and DFS. Results: SD and MPP quantified from fine to coarse textures on arterial-phase CT images showed significant positive associations with the histologic grade of HCC (p < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier analysis identified most CT texture features across the different filters from fine to coarse texture scales as significant univariate markers of DFS. Cox proportional hazards analysis identified skewness on arterial-phase images (fine texture scale, spatial scaling factor [SSF] 2.0, p < 0.001; medium texture scale, SSF 3.0, p < 0.001), tumor size (p = 0.001), microscopic vascular invasion (p = 0.034), rim arterial enhancement (p = 0.024), and peritumoral parenchymal enhancement (p = 0.010) as independent predictors of DFS. Conclusion: CTTA was demonstrated to provide texture features significantly correlated with higher tumor grade as well as predictive markers of DFS after surgical resection of HCCs in addition to other valuable imaging and clinico-pathologic parameters.

비점오염원 저감을 위해 설치된 주암호 생태습지의 수질정화효율을 평가하기 위하여 시스템별 및 시기별 오염물질의 함량과 처리효율을 조사하였다. 유입원수의 BOD, COD, SS, T-N 및 T-P의 함량은 각각 0.20~0.91, 1.24~8.00, 0.6~8.6, 0.04~2.50 및 $0.001{\sim}0.685mg\;L^{-1}$ 범위로 나타났다. 주암호 생태습지 유입수의 대부분이 현행 오염물질 수질기준을 초과하지 않은 상태로 유입되었지만 비점오염원이 많이 유입되는 특정 시기 (장마철)에는 높은 오염물질 함량을 나타내었다. 시기별로는 전반적으로 여름철에 유입원수의 영양염류의 유입이 다른 시기에 비해 높은 경향이었다. 전반적으로 C 시스템이 오염물질의 처리효율이 가장 높은 경향이었다. A 시스템의 습지들은 대부분 겨풀이 우점하고 있었으며 B 시스템의 습지들은 겨풀과 연꽃이 우점하고 있었다. C 시스템의 습지들은 겨풀, 수련 및 부들이 우점하고 있었다. 주암호 생태습지는 오염물질의 처리능이 전반적으로 안정화 상태에 도달하지 못한 것으로 판단되며, 특히 겨풀 및 물 참새피 등 식물교란종의 습지 내 침투로 인하여 습지의 수질정화효율이 전반적으로 낮았다. 따라서 본 연구결과로부터 조성초기 인공습지는 식생의 발달 여부가 수질의 안정화와 습지의 수생태학적 역할을 증대시키는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 국내 조림 수종인 백합나무를 바이오에탄올 생산용 자원으로 이용하고자 oxalic acid 전처리 방법을 도입하여 가능성을 타진하였다. $160^{\circ}C$에서 0.037 g/g oxalic acid로 20분 전처리하였을 때 $40.22g/{\ell}$의 발효가능한 당을 생산하였으며, 처리된 고형 바이오매스를 이용하여 동시당화발효를 수행한 결과 72시간 후 $8.6g/{\ell}$의 에탄올을 생산하였다. 같은 조건에서 반응시간을 증가시켜 40분 처리하였을 때 $32.66g/{\ell}$의 발효가능한 당을 생산하였고 동시당화발효로 72시간 후 $9.5g/{\ell}$의 에탄올을 생산하였다. 가수분해산물을 분석한 결과, 같은 조건에서 반응시간이 증가함에 따라 acetic acid, 5-HMF, furfural, total phenols와 같은 발효저해물질이 증가하였다. 이와 같은 발효저해물질은 반응시간보다는 초기 oxalic acid 첨가량에 영향을 받았다. Acetic acid 생산량은 저농도(0.013 g/g)의 oxalic acid를 사용하였을 때 $3.39{\sim}5.78g/{\ell}$로 나타났으며 xylose 분해산물인 furfural은 glucose의 분해산물인 5-HMF보다 2~3배 많게 가수분해산물에 존재하였다. 리그닌 분해산물로 예측되는 total phenols는 모든 조건에서 $5g/{\ell}$ 이상이 검출되었다. 가수분해산물과 동시당화발효로부터 에탄올 생산량을 분석한 결과 0.037 g/g oxalic acid로 20분 전처리한 가수분해산물과 고형 바이오매스로부터 가장 높은 에탄올 생산을 예측할 수 있다.

The effects of solvent type and concentration, solid/liquid ratio, extraction time and repeated extraction on recovery of keratinase from solid-state fermentation (SSF) of chicken feather by a local Streptomyces sp. NRC 13S were investigated in order to establish the experimental conditions for keratinase yield. Among solvents tested, 0.5% (v/v) glycerol was the best. Box-Behnken design was used to investigate the effect of relevant variables on keratinase recovery. The factors investigated were solid/liquid ratio (1:1.66-1:6.66 g/mL), glycerol concentration (0.5-5% v/v) and repeated extraction (1-5 cycle). The results showed that the maximum recovery of keratinase (6933.3 U/gfs) was obtained using 0.5 (v/v) glycerol as extracting solvent, in a solid/liquid ratio of 1:5 and three extraction cycles.

A typical AP (Access Point) selection policy is to select an AP based on the received signal strength indicator (RSSI), ignoring its load. If multiple stations are deployed densely at a particular area, a typical AP selection policy will bring about the overall network throughput degradation. This paper proposes a novel AP selection policy taking into consideration not only signal strength of the APs but also AP loads to avoid Hotspot congestion. An experiment on Alinker implementing proposed AP selection policy, demonstrates that the proposed policy achieves close to optimal load balancing and grants the maximum transmission rate to stations in comparison with SSF (Strongest-Signal-First) and LLF (Least-Loaded-First).

The fault analysis of the CNC machine tool which is controlled sequentially by PLC is generally based on ladder diagram. When machine tool has faults, it takes a lot of operator's experiences and times to identify logical relationship because ladder diagram is a step structured language. Therefore the technologies of finding out fault reasons automatically is necessary. In this paper, the SFG(Switching Function Generator) system is developed to analysis fault reasons correctly. The SF(Switching Function) and SSF(Step Switching Function) generated from SFG based on ladder diagram are experimented to identify the performance of SFG.
