In this study, 5 species (Tetranychus kanzawai Kishida, Endoclyta excrescens (Butler), leaf roller caterpillar (Adoxophyes orana Fisher), Anomis mesogona (Walker), and Aulacaspis rosae (Bouche)) were found in Rubus coreanus Miquel in Jeonbuk province, from 2006 to 2008. T. kanzawai appeared in mid-May and showed three peaks in late June, mid-July, and late August. Its density was over 10 adults per leaf. A. mesogona appeared in mid-June and showed two peaks in late July, and early October. Of the 28 insect pests in pre-harvesting, the 7 main species were T. kanzawai, T. urticae, A. orana, Lygocoris lucorum Meyer, Frankliniella intonsa (Trybom), Psylliodes punctifrons Baly and Motschulskyia serrata (Matsumura). Of the 19 insect pests in after-harvesting, the 6 main species were T. kanzawai, E. excrescens, A. mesogona, A. orana, P. punctifrons and A. rosae. Growth of R. coreanus decreased when insect pests were not managed and yields decreased approx. 7% a year. Management of insect pests in field using pesticide was not different.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of fermented-defatted soybean grits (DSG). Fermented-DSG was prepared by inoculating Bacillus subtilis NUCI into steamed DSG at 2% (v/w) concentration and fermenting at $40^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr. The protein contents of DSG and fermented-DSG were higher by $57.2{\sim}61.0%$ than those of Chungkukjang, but lipid contents of these samples were not detected. The protease and $\alpha$-amylase activities, and solid contents in DSG were not shown. However, the activities of protease and $\alpha$-amylase, tyrosine contents, fluid consistency, and viscous substance contents of fermented-DSG were higher than those of Chungkukjang. The levels of free amino acids and isoflavone of fermented-DSG tended to increase more than those of DSG. The sensory score of fermented-DSG were higher in odor and taste than those of Chungkukjang groups, while lower in color and overall acceptability.

This study was conducted on 20 healthy adults in their 20s to identity the immediate effects of balance, proprioception and flexibility after conducting the PNF combined patterns using 3D Newton box. The data collected in this study were analyzed using the SPSS Window 19.0 statistical program, and the general characteristics of the subjects were calculated by calculating the mean and standard deviation using the technical statistics, and the differences before and after in-group balance, proprioception and flexibility were analyzed by the paired t-test. The balance, proprioception and flexibility of the subjects were measured using Y-balance, one-leg standing, and finger bottom contact. The exercise was applied with an combined pattern of PNF in the 3D Newton box. After exercise, balance, proprioception and flexibility all increased significantly. The results show that combined pattern of PNF using the 3D Newton box immediately works for the balance, proprioception and flexibility of adults in their 20s. Therefore, it is considered to be an exercise that can be actively utilized for adults or patients at high risk of damage due to reduced balance, proprioception and flexibility.

This study reports petrography and geochemical characteristics of the basalt lava flows in Seongsan-Ilchulbong area, the easternpart of Jeju island, Korea, to understand the evolutionary processes of magma. Basalt lavas are classified into the Pyoseon-ri basalt and the Seongsan-ri basalt. The Pyoseon-ri basalt is dark-gray colored with many vescicles, and mainly consists of olivine, feldspar and rarely of clinopyroxene as phenocrysts. The Seongsan-ri basalt is largely aphanitic basalt and bright-gray colored, divided into two lava-flow units: lower lava flow (B1) and upper lava flow (B2) by the intercalated yellowish lapillistone and paleosol. The lavas plotted into sub-alkaline tholeiitic basalt and alkaline basalt series. The tholeiitic basalts have characteristically higher $SiO_2,\;FeO^T$, and CaO contents, but lower $TiO_2,\;K_2O,\;P_2O_5$ and other incompatible elements compared to the alkali basalts. The tholeiitic basalts have higher $SiO_2$ to the same MgO contents than the alkalic basalts. The contents of Ni, Cr, and MgO show a strong positive correlation, which indicates that low-MgO phases like plagioclase and titanomagnetite were important during the differentiation of magma. The contents of incompatible elements against that of Th show a strong positive correlation. The chondrite-nomalized REE patterns of tholeiitic and alkalic basalts are subparallel each other. LREEs contents of the former are lower than, but HREEs contents are similar to the latter. They both are similar to their K/Ba ratios. The primitive-mantle normalized spider diagram demonstrates that the contents of Ba and Th of all basaltic magma are enriched, and yet Cr, Ni are depleted. The tholeiitic and alkalic basalts may be originated from a different degree of the partial melting of the same mantle material source, and one shows a higher degree of the partial melting than the other.

Apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells(VSMCs) is essential in atherogenesis, being a factor that modulates its early progression rather than a terminal event in the course of the disease. Various stimuli, including oxide lipoproteins, altered hemodynamic stress and free radical, can induced VSMCs apoptosis in vitro. The protective effects of Sophorae Radix (SR) on apoptotic cell death induced by H₂O₂ were investigated in VSMCs. The viability of VSMCs was markedly decreased by H₂O₂. Sophorae Radix protected the H202-induced apoptotic death of VSMCs, which was characterized as nuclear fragmentation and increase of sub-G0/G1 fraction .. Sophorae Radix decreased the activation of caspase-3 like protease induced by H₂O₂ and recovered control level from H202-induced PARP, Bak, Bcl-XL and mitochondrial membrane potential. These results suggest that Sophorae Radix protected VSMCs apoptotic death induced by H₂O₂ via inactivation of caspase-3 and modulation of mitochondrial function. Also, the expression profile of proteins by using two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis was screened. Future investigations will need to explore the use of an anti atherosclerotic therapy of Sophorae Radix, which relies on inhibition of the proapoptotic activation of the vascular smooth muscle cells.

In this study, whitening activity of Lithospermum erythrorhizon extracts were investigated according to several extraction processes: water extraction at $100^{\circ}C$ (WE100) and $60^{\circ}C$ (WE60), 70% ethyl alcohol extraction (EE) and ultra high pressure extraction (HPE) at 500 MPa for 30 minutes at $60^{\circ}C$. The extracts from ultra high pressure extraction showed the highest tyrosinase inhibition and melanogenesis inhibition activities as 52% and 79.5%, respectively, in adding $1mg/m{\ell}$ than others extraction processes. HPE extracts also showed the strong reducing power as 3.19 that absorbance at 450 mm. The contents of polyphenol in WE100, we measured as $10.1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ in adding $1mg/m{\ell}$. Extracts have a high total flavonoid contents by HPE as $4.1{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ at $1mg/m{\ell}$. We can conclude that better whitening activity of extracts from high pressure extraction was due to high antioxidant activities which could be extracted by higher polyphenol and flavonoid contents in HPE than others.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) selective inhibitors were specifically developed to reduce the risks of gastrointestinal bleeding associated with other NSAID drugs. However, the APPROVe (Adenomatous Polyp Prevention on VIOXX) trials revealed that rofecoxib sometimes exerts prothrombotic effects. Meanwhile, cancer patients, who also carry a risk of thrombosis due to a variety of mechanisms, are often treated with COX-2 selective inhibitors, due to their relative gastrointestinal safety. This report concerns the case of a 46-year old woman with advanced cervical cancer, who had been treated with opioids and a COX-2 selective inhibitor (celecoxib) for 2 months, for the relief of pain associated with her cancer. The patient was admitted due to swelling of the left leg, which was also accompanied by pain. A computerized tomography scan revealed deep vein thrombosis occurring in multiple veins of both legs. After the administration of low-molecular weight heparin and oral warfarin, the patient's symptoms were relieved initially. However, her prothrombin time was found to be prolonged, necessitating the discontinuation of anticoagulation therapy. The patient's dyspnea worsened, ultimately resulting in her death. In conclusion, the administration of cox-2 selective inhibitors should be carefully considered in patients with a number of different risk factors, and assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Purpose. We compared with the refracting power and aberration according to the measurement change in illumination and the pupils area by using the auto refraction instruments. Methods. In this study it were examined 64 eyes without eye disease, 21.4 (${\pm}2.54$) age, 32 (male 10, female 22) patients. Experiments in general illumination using the auto refraction instruments (HRK-8000A, Huvitz, Korea) was measured in both eyes 3 times and after scotopic for 30 minutes in a dark room blocked the light was measured in the same way. Aberration were measured coma, spherical aberration, high and low order aberrations in a general illumination (3500 lux) and low illumination (5 lux) of the pupil area 3.96 mm and 5.96 mm. Results. In the general illumination for measuring of the pupil area, the refractive power, coma, spherical aberration and low order aberration was no significant difference. In the low illumination, spherical aberration of the pupil area was $0.005({\pm}0.015){\mu}m$ in a 3.96mm, $0.014({\pm}0.020){\mu}m$ in a 5.96 mm and appeared a significant difference(p = 0.003). In general and low illumination on the results of comparing the measured values of the refractive power and aberration at the pupil area 3.96 mm, high order aberrations was $0.205({\pm}0.145){\mu}m$ in general illumination, $0.132({\pm}0.075){\mu}m$ in low illumination and appeared a significant differences(p = 0.001). High order aberrations at the pupil area 5.96 mm was $0.278({\pm}0.244){\mu}m$ in general illumination, $0.150({\pm}0.092){\mu}m$ in low illumination and appeared a significant differences(p = 0.000). Conclusions. When the eye refractive power measured by the automatic refraction does not depend on the illumination conditions and size of the observation pupil area, it was found that aberrations are affected by the illumination and the observation pupil area. It was found that the eye examination chamber illumination to obtain accurate measurement produces better results to decrease than to increase.

반도체 검출기는 입사되는 X선 에너지에 의하여 이온화되어 발생하는 전자 전공쌍을 수집함으로 방사선 정보를 확인하는 선량계로써 많은 연구와 활용이 이루어지고 있다. 하지만, X선 에너지에 의하여 반도체 검출기에서 발생하는 전기적 신호량이 높지 않기 때문에 누설 전류의 저감이 필수적이다. 누설 전류를 저감시키기 위한 방안으로 반도체 층과 전극 층의 Schottky Contact 구조의 설계, Insulating Layer의 사용, 높은 비저항의 반도체 물질 연구 등이 이루어지고 있다. 하지만, 기존에 누설 전류 저감을 위하여 Insulating Layer를 전극층과 반도체 층 사이에 형성하는 연구에 있어서 Insulating Layer와 반도체 층의 계면 사이에서 발생하는 Charge Trapping으로 인하여 생성되는 신호의 Reproducibility 저하, 동영상 적용의 제한 등의 문제점을 겪어왔다. 이에 본 논문에서는 누설 전류를 저감시킴과 동시에 Charge Trapping의 최소화를 이루기 위하여 Insulating Layer의 두께 최적화 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 Insulating Layer는 검출기 표면에 입사하는 X선 정보 손실을 최소화 시키는 동시에 누설 전류와 Charge Trapping을 최소화 시키는 방법으로써 CVD방법으로 검출기 표면에 균일하게 Insulating Layer를 코팅하였다. Insulating 물질은 Parylene을 사용하였으며, 그 중 온도, 습도 등 외부환경에 영향을 적게 받는 type C를 사용하였다. 증착에 사용한 장비의 진공도는 Torr로 설정하여 증착되는 Parylene의 두께가 약 $0.3{\mu}m$가 되게 하였으며, 실험에는 반도체 물질 PbO를 사용하였다. Parylene의 절연 특성은 Dark Current와 Sensitivity를 측정한 SNR을 이용하여 Parylene코팅이 되지 않은 동일 반도체 검출기와의 신호를 비교하였으며 또한 Parylene를 다층 제작한 검출기의 수집 신호량을 비교하였다. 제작한 검출기의 X선 조사 시의 수집 전하량 측정 결과, 100 kVp, 100mA, 0.03s의 X선 조건에서 $1V/{\mu}m$의 기준 시, Parylene를 코팅하지 않은 PbO 검출기의 Dark current는 0.0501 nA/cm2, Sensitivity는 0.6422 nC/mR-cm2, SNR은 12.184이었으며, Parylene단층의 두께인 $0.3{\mu}m$로 증착된 시편의 Dark current는 0.04097 nA/cm2, Sensitivity는 0.53732 nC/mR-cm2으로 Dark current가 감소되고 sensitivity도 감소하였지만 SNR은 13.1150으로 높아진 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Perylene이 $0.6{\mu}m$로 증착된 시편의 경우, Dark Current는 0.04064 nA/cm2, Sensitivity는 0.31473 nC/mR-cm2, SNR은 7.7443으로써 Insulating Layer가 없는 시편보다 SNR이 약 40% 낮아진 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Parylene이 $0.9{\mu}m$로 증착된 시편의 경우 Dark current는 0.0378 nA/cm2, Sensitivity 0.0461 nC/mR-cm2로 Insulating Layer가 없는 시편에 비해 SNR은 약 1/12배 감소한 1.2196이었고, Parylene이 $1.2{\mu}m$로 증착된 시편의 SNR은 1.1252로서 더 감소하였다. 따라서 Parylene을 다층 코팅한 검출기일수록 절연 효과의 영향이 커짐으로써 SNR 비교 시 수집되는 신호량이 줄어드는 것을 확인하였다. 반도체 검출기의 누설 전류를 저감시킴과 동시에 신호 수집율에 영향을 최소화시키기 위하여 Insulating Layer의 두께를 적절하게 설정하여 적용하면 Insulating Layer가 없는 검출기에 비해 누설전류를 최소한으로 줄일 수 있고 신호 검출효율이 감소하는 것을 방지할 수 있을 것이라 사료된다.
