Biological treatment of wastewater was studied with a purpose to remove TOC by the reduction of water hardness. The optimal conditions of coagulant were determined by reaction time and amount of coagulant. Experimental results indicate that the biological treatment after physico-chemical treatment was found to provide very efficient removal efficiency in the process to treat the textile wastewater, including the carbon dioxide treatment. The combined process of carbonization in the physico-chemical treatment respectively was increased the removal efficiencies of $30.0\%$ in biological treatment in comparison with exclusive biological treatment. As a result, the treatment of hardness after carbonization had the best removal efficiency of approximately $60.0\%$. The removal efficiencies in the exclusive biological treatment using Bacillus subtilis and after carbonization were increased by $38.9\%\;and\;69.0\%$ respectively. The combined Bacillus subtilis-assisted biological treatment was determined to be the most effective method to treat the textile wastewater in an economic point of view, the water quality in the wastewater treatment plays an important role.

The purpose of Lumbar Stabilization is to recover the ability of regulating movement of muscular strength, which currently becomes an essential approach to the treatment for lumbago. Sling exercise is a dynamic exercise and a method of active exercise for the patients to take part in their own treatment. This research is to develop the correlation between Lumbar Stabilization and muscular strength as well as Sling exercise. The subjects of this experiment are 12 healthy and normal male and female lasting for 4 weeks. EMG and Postural Med were used as measuring apparatuses. After experiment of 4 weeks exercises, there was not a meaningful result in the measured result of EMG(P>0.05), But there was a significant increase in the result of Postural Med after the experiment(P<0.05). According to this result, we can find out that there is a significant correlation between Sling exercise and muscular strength as well as Lumbar Stabilization. The increase in the lumbar region augments Lumbar Stabilization and the reaction speed of muscle power. So it recovers the stabilization of spine. This Sling exercise program is efficient for the treatment and prevention of back pain.

Oculomotor nerve palsy presents itself with sudden onset unilateral ptosis and inability to turn the eye upward, downward, or inward, which causes visual disturbances. Strabismus caused oculomotor nerve palsy refers to muscle imbalance that results in improper alignment of the visual axes of the two eyes It may be divided into paralytic and non paralytic strabismus. paralytic strabismus is primarily a neurologic problem. Characteristic clinical disturbances result from lesions of the third, fourth, and sixth cranial nerves. Lesions of the third nerve result in a paralysis of lateral or outward movement and a crossing of the visual axes. Objective: This study was designed to evaluate the effects of oriental medicine therapy on a peripheral oculomotor nerve palsy. Methods & Result: The clinical data was analyzed on a patient with oculomotor nerve palsy whose main symptoms were right side ptosis and inability to turn the eye inward. The patient was treated by the electroacupucture(4Hz frequency, intensity was adjusted so that localized muscle contractions could be seen). As the result, symptoms are improved remarkably. Conclusion: The patient showed right eye ptosis and unilateral deviation of the right eye ball in neutral position. After acupuncture treatment and electroacupuncture treatment, the ptosis and deviation of the patient's right eye was recovered six weeks after the onset. The study suggests that oriental medicine therapy is significantly effective on the treatment of peripheral oculomotor nerve palsy.

Objectives : The aim of this study was conducted to test alopecia by external application with traditional oriental hair care products. Methods : A total of 20 males who visited Daegu Hanny Oriental Medical Center from December 15th, 2007 to September 30th, 2008 were included in this study. In this study, they were treated with the hair care products(shampoo, hair tonic) containing herbs. For 12 weaks hair density and hair thickness content were measured by Folliscope 2.5. Comparative analysis result between before treatment and after treatment was checked. And satisfaction after using shampoo, hair tonic was checked. Results : Change of hair density and hair thickness between before treatment and after treatment (4, 8, 12 weeks) showed significant changes(p<0.05). Comparative analysis result between before treatment and after treatment showed significant changes(p<0.0001). Satisfaction after using shampoo, hair tonic was near good. Conclusions : Considering the above results, we have concluded that hair care products containing herbs have the remarkable effect on alopecia.

The color enhancement for natural Zambian amethyst of low quality was carried out by the hydrothermal treatment method. The hydrothermal treatment conditions were as follows: reaction temperature; $300^{\circ}C$, duration; 30 hrs, filling; 40%, solvent; 6 M-HCI solution. The reddish purple amethyst of high quality was obtained under these conditions. From the result of ICP/AES, it was known that color enhancement was affected by a Fe elemental content to exist in the inside of natural Zambian amethyst. Also, from the result of UY-VIS-NIR, it was shown that the absorption peak at 550 nm after hydrothermal treatment is slightly lower than those of non-treated natural Zambian amethyst. In this study, it was known that hydrothermal treatment method was a way to suitable for increase of commercial value of natural Zambian amethyst.

Objectives : This study reported 3 cases of L-spine HIVD which was treated with spine decompression, as a new medical treatment alleviates lumbago by non-surgical treatment, and oriental medicine treatment. Methods : Each patient has been treated with spine decompression and oriental medicine treatment, and the degree of improvement has been evaluated by VAS and Rating scale for LBP. Results : Through the result, the medical treatment proved to have valid effect for L-spine HIVD, but patients did not become healthy enough restored to their job before. Conclusions : At the result of this, every case can be certified to give appropriate effect, and there needs more research into synergy between spine decompression and oriental medicine treatment.

Radiotherapy, as a major 3 standard treatment for cancer, traditionally it has been useful treatment that aim of curative or palliative setting. In addition to some proliferative or inflammatory benign disease are also included in field of radiotherapy. Unlike cancer, in the case of benign disease, it shows good treatment result from usage of some medication, conservative management or surgery. But if fail of these treatment or impossible, low dose radiotherapy is use adjuvant or replacement treatment so that there are no harmful side effect result in safety and easy management for reduce pain or recurrence. Recently, the technical advances in radiotherapy that have been achieved make preservation of normal tissue and the clinical application of high precision radiotherapy focus to selective lesions is possible, and it makes useful treatment in senile patients especially.
