Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the association between the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) genetic polymorphism [TaqIB (rs17294542) and TaqID (rs1800498)] and patients with schizophrenia. Methods : TaqIB (rs17294542) and TaqID (rs1800498) polymorphism of the DRD2 gene were typed in 100 patients with schizophrenia and 109 normal controls. Results : There were no statistical differences in genotype and allele distribution of TaqIB (rs17294542) and TaqID (rs1800498) genetic polymorphism between patients with schizophrenia and normal controls. Conclusions : These results suggest that the TaqIB (rs17294542) and TaqID (rs1800498) polymorphisms of the DRD2 gene may not be associated with schizophrenia in the Korean population.

본 연구는 유기흑염소 생산에 기초적인 자료를 얻고자 유형이 다른 산지 초지에 방목하여 흑염소의 발육과 육질에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 공시축은 흑염소 40두를 4처리구(개량목초구, 유기목초구, 산야초구, 수엽류구)로 나누어 처리구당 10두씩 공시하여 2007년 5월 15일부터 2007년 11월 5일까지 174일간 농촌진흥청 축산과학원 가축유전자원시험장 방목지에서 수행하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 일당증체량은 개량목초구가 다른 시험구 보다 유의하게 높았다(p<0.05). 도체율은 개량목초구와 유기목초구가 산야초구와 수엽류구 보다 유의하게 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 정육율은 개량목초구가 유의하게 높게 나타났다(p<0.05). 흑염소 고기의 조지방은 산야초구가 높은 경향이었다. 고기의 리놀레산과 리놀렌산은 개량목초구 보다 유기목초구, 산야초 및 수엽류구가 높은 경향이었으며, 아라키돈산은 산야초와 수엽류구가 다른 시험구 보다 높은 경향으로 나타났다. 전단력은 산야초구가 낮은 경향이었으며, 관능검사 결과 중 다즙성과 연도는 유기목초구와 산야초구가, 풍미는 산야초구와 수엽류구가 우수한 경향으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 종합해 보면, 산지에 방목 사육된 유기흑염소는 다소 생산성과 도체특성은 낮으나 육질 및 물리적 특성이 우수한 경향으로 나타나 고품질 유기축산물 생산으로 농가소득 증대뿐만이 아니라 소비자 요구충족에도 가능성이 높은 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, We have been investigated the effect of calcination temperature and high-energy ball-milling of powder influences the $BaTiO_3$-based PTCR(Positive Temperature coefficient Resistance) characteristics and microstructure. The mixed powder was obtained from $BaCO_3$, $TiO_2$, $CeO_2$ ball-milled in attrition mill. The mixed powder was calcine from 1000 $^{\circ}C$ to 1200 $^{\circ}C$ in air and then it was sintered in reduction- re-oxidation atmosphere. As a result, The room-temperature electrical resistivity decreased and increased with increasing calcination temperature. specially, Attrition milled powder could have low room-temperature resistivity and high PTC jump order at 1100 $^{\circ}C$. attrition milling had lower room-temperature resistivity than ball milling. Particle size decreased by Attrition milling of powder influences in calcination temperature and room-temperature resistivity.

High-$T_c$ superconducting (HTSC) power cable is one of the interesting parts in power application using HTSC wire. However, its stacked structure makes the current distribution between conducting layers non-uniform due to difference between self inductances of conducting layers and mutual inductances between two conducting layers, which results in lower current transmission capacity of HTSC power cable. In this paper, the transport current distribution between conducting layers was investigated through the numerical analysis for the equivalent circuit of HTSC power cable with a shield layer, and compared with the case of without a shield layer. The transport current distribution due to the increase of the contact resistance in each layer was improved. However, its magnetization loss increased as the contact resistance increased. It was confirmed from the analysis that the shield layer was contributed to the improvement of the current distribution between conducting layers if the winding direction and the pitch length were properly chosen.

We studied algal growth-related water quality of the Sangsa lake which is the drinking water reservoir for the south-eastern region of Jeonnam province. Peridinium cinctum and several diatomic algal species frequently caused water bloom throughout the lake from early spring to late autumn. With the heaviest predominance of Peridinium cintum in May 2003, COD was 22.7 mg/l in the surface layer. Highly turbid surface water of 15 NTU was also caused by Perdinium bloom. Cyanobacterial growth was effectively prohibited by dominant growth of Peridinium in the Sangsa lake, otherwise confronted with cyanobacterial bloom. Dense algal layer was confined in the upper several meters of the water column above the thermocline, which gives relatively algae-free water in deeper layer suitable for drinking source water supply. Upon collapse of thermocline, water quality of the surface layer was improved while deeper layer was deteriorated. This paper deals with some details of water quality changes with algal growth in the Sangsa lake past two years.

This study formed a hard TiAlSiWN coating layer using Ti, Al, Si and W raw powders that were mechanically alloyed and refined. The TiAlSi and TiAlSiW coating targets were fabricated using a single PCAS process in a short time with the optimal sintering conditions. The coating targets were deposited on the WC substrate by forming coating layers using TiAlSiN and TiAlSiWN nitride nano-composite structures with an AIP process. The properties of the nitride nano-composite coating layers were compared according to the addition of W. The microstructure of the nitride nano-composite coating layer was analyzed, focusing on the distribution of the crystalline phases, amorphous phases ($Si_3N_4$), and growth orientation of the columnar crystal depending on the addition of W. The mechanical properties of the coating layers were exhibited a hardness of approximately $3,000kg/mm^2$ and adhesion of about 117.77N in the TiAlSiN. In particular, the TiAlSiWN showed excellent properties with a hardness of more than $4,300kg/mm^2$ and an adhesion of about 181.47N.

This paper investigates the design of disturbance observer for rotational vibration suppression in disk drive systems. The design aims to provide an optimal controller which satisfies both vibration performance and robust stability. It consists of an inversion method, a special filter, and optimization scheme. Firstly a new inversion method is introduced, which provides more accurate inversion compared to conventional zero phase error method. The inversion is to deal with unstable zeros in the plant model. Secondly a special filter for disturbance selection is given, which features adjustable gain and band pass characteristics so that it enables flexible shaping of the loop considering the trade-off between performance and stability margins. And finally the parameters of disturbance observer are optimized in conjunction with external disturbance model. Simulation and experiment on commercial hard disk drives confirm that the design is very effective to such disturbance which is hard to be handled by conventional approach.

Takifugu rubripes, T. chinensis, T. pseudommus and an unidentified species were morphologically and genetically studied. Morphology was compared using external morphology and the genetic analysis was conducted using mitochondrial DNA cytochrome oxidase I (COI) and cytochrome b (Cyt b). The morphological characteristics of T. rubripes, T. chinensis and T. pseudommus were confirmed, as reported previously. The unidentified species was confirmed to have the characteristics of T. rubripes and T. chinensis. The COI sequences of the four species were 99-100% similar; genetic distance was d=0.0000 and Cyt b genetic distance was d=0.0000-0.00834. Species in the phylogenetic tree belonging to the same group could not be classified genetically. In conclusion, the unidentified species was considered to be a hybrid between T. rubripes and T. chinensis.

This work investigated three-dimensional (3D) focused microwave thermotherapy (FMT) at 925 MHz for a human tissue mimicking phantom using the time reversal (TR) principle for musculoskeletal disorders. We verified the proposed TR algorithm by evaluating the possibility of 3D beam focusing through simulations and experiments. The simulation, along with the electromagnetic and thermal analyses of the human tissue mimicking phantom model, was conducted by employing the Sim4Life commercial tool. Experimental validation was conducted on the developed FMT system using a fabricated human tissue mimicking phantom. A truncated threshold method was proposed to reduce the unwanted hot spots in a normal tissue region, wherein a beam was appropriately focused on a target position. The validation results of the simulation and experiments obtained by utilizing the proposed TR algorithm were shown to be acceptable. Effective beam focusing at the desired position of the phantom could be achieved.
