  • 본 연구에서는 의료기관에서 방사성동위원소를 이용하여 암을 비롯한 여러 질환을 검사하는 PET/CT 검사에서 환자의 움직임으로 인한 영상의 질 저하와 판독 오류를 발생할 수 있는 점을 보완하기 위해 AI 기반의 Algorithm을 이용하여 개발한 Mothion Free 소프트웨어를 이용하여 호흡으로 인한 움직임의 보정 정도를 확인하고 유용성을 평가하여 임상에서의 적용을 위한 연구를 하였다. 실험 방법은 RPM Phantom을 사용하여 방사성동위원소 18F-FDG를 진공 바이알과 서로 다른 크기 NEMA IEC body Phantom의 sphere에 방사성동위원소를 주입하고 이것의 움직임을 호흡 시 움직이는 병소로 연출하여 영상을 획득하였다. 진공 바이알은 서로 다른 위치에서 움직임 정도를 다르게 하였고, 서로 다른 크기 NEMA IEC body Phantom의 sphere는 서로 다른 병소의 크기를 연출 하였다. 획득한 영상을 통하여 병소의 체적, 최대 SUV, 평균 SUV를 각각 측정하여 Mothion Free가 움직임 보정 정도를 정량적 평가를 하였다. 움직임 정도를 크게 설정한 진공바이알 A의 평균 SUV는 23.36 %, 움직임 정도를 작게 설정한 진공 바이알 B는 29.3 % 오차율이 감소하였다. NEMA IEC body Phantom의 sphere 37 mm, 22 mm에서의 평균 SUV는 각각 29.3 %, 26.51 % 오차율이 감소하였다. 오차율을 산출한 네 가지 측정치의 평균 오차율 30.03 % 감소하여 보다 정확한 평균 SUV 값을 나타내었다. 이 연구에서는 2차원적인 움직임 만을 연출할 수 있었기에 보다 정확한 데이터를 얻기 위해서는 실제 인체의 호흡 운동을 구현할 수 있는 Phantom을 이용하고, 움직임의 범위의 다양성을 구성한다면 보다 정확한 유용성 평가를 할 수 있다고 연구된다.

  • Freeze drying under vacuum condition is a complex process that involves simultaneous heat and mass transfer, sublimation of ice, and motion of sublimation front. Proper treatment of the motion of sublimation interface is crucial for an accurate prediction of the freeze drying process. Based on the enthalpy formulation that has been successfully used in liquid/solid phase change problems. a fixed grid method. streamlined for the freeze drying analysis. was developed in this study. The accuracy of the fixed grid method was checked by solving a one-dimensional tray freeze drying and a two-dimensional vial freeze drying problem and then comparing the results with those by the moving grid method. Finally. the freeze drying characteristics of two-dimensional slab and axis-symmetric cylinder was investigated using the fixed grid method.

  • The emergence of viral diseases transmitted is nowadays a central problem in the world. Problem, which is becoming very critical in developing countries, where the health systems are not yet enough developed to face the bursting of such diseases. Emerging viral diseases constitute one of the major threats to human being that are arising in the modern world. Besides bio-chemical and medical researches, new orientations are developed to understand the environmental dimensions of such emergence. Questions concerning the inter-plays between the environmental and disease dynamics are building up new investigations, both in remote sensing and GIS, for the elaboration of levels of organization of space and environment in relation to incidences, to gain understandings in these issues. Environmental attributes attached to land cover types: area, spatial heterogeneity and physical state, are derived from remote sensing and applied to uncover related dimensions of the Dengue disease.

  • The W-Cu composite powders were synthesized from W and Cu elemental powders by ball-milling process, and their microstructural changes and sintering behaviors were evaluated. The ball milling process was carried out in a 3-dimensional mixer (Turbula mixer) using zirconic ($ZrO_2$) ball and alumina ($Al_2O_3$) vial up to 300 hrs. The ball-milled W-Cu powders revealed nearly spherical shape. Microstructure of the composite powders showed onion-like structure which consists of W and Cu shells due to the moving characteristic of Turbula mixer. The W and Cu elements in the composite powders milled for 300 hrs were homogeneously distributed, and W grain size in the ball-milled powder was smaller than 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Fe impurity introduced during ball milling process was very low as of 0.001 wt%. The relative sintered density of ball-milled W-Cu specimens reached about 94% after sintering at $1100^{\circ}C$.

  • The Burkholderia genus consists of over 40 Gram-negative, ${\beta}$-proteobacteria species that occupy remarkably diverse ecological niches. This genus contains species pathogenic to human, animals, and plants, as well as species involved in promoting plant growth and biodegradation of pollutants. This is largely explained by the extraordinary versatility of Burkholderia, as reflected by the remarkable diversity of extracellular products released by these bacteria. We exhaustively surveyed the extracellular enzymes, siderophores, toxins, antimicrobials, and other secondary metabolites produced by the members of this very diverse genus. Available information on regulation, especially quorum sensing mechanisms, and secretion is highlighted.

  • 400ppm의 pentachlorophenol(PCP) 오염토양을 5$m\ell$ scintillation vial의 multi reactor와 1L 크기의 one reactor를 써서 Hydrogen peroxide와 Hemoglobin 촉매반응에 의해 PCP 분해정도를 조사하였다. 대부분 초기에 반응이 빠르게 진행되므로 time scale을 8시간 이내와 한달여기간동안 살펴보았다. 8시간동안의 PCP 분해정도는 일차함수로 동력학 계수가 -0.0233으로 나타났고, 이때 제거효율은 60.8%이고 one reactor의 경우 30일동안 80%의 제거효율을 보였다. PCP 회수율은 multi reactor의 경우 96.5($\pm$6.7)이고 one reactor(fan scale)의 경우 90.1%였다.

  • MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were fabricated by in-situ reaction through mechanical alloying. Also the monolithic MoSi$_2$ as well as TiC were synthesiced by mechanical alloying for comparison. An abrupt increase of vial surface temperature was detected due to a sudden reaction between elemental powders during milling. The reaction time for synthesis of composite powders decreased with increasing the content of (Ti+C) powder. It was found that a significant decrease of Ti grain size was observed with increasing the milling time. And the synthesis reaction of MoSi$_2$-TiC composite powders were largely dependent on the reaction between Ti and C powders.

  • The authors have considered the 1/f fluctuation of vial rhythm with $1/f\beta$ spectrum of $\alpha$ wave in relation to the invigoration for the learning memory by paid their attention to the hippocampus protocol in this paper. At the first clinical experiment, the data of the remembrance test at short period is able to make as the foundation of the repeat memory. It can replace this memory with long period memory through the hippocampus by the superposition of the same memory-nerve circuits.

  • The purpose of this study was to observe the trend of compounds release from acrylic resin oral prosthesis when used for drug delivery as well as a restoration. In this study, 10 specimens of heat-cured polymethylmethacrylate material were prepared and loaded with methylene blue biological stain. The specimens were then submerged in vials with 5 ml distilled water for 24 hours. The extraction procedure continued for 4 days, each day the specimens were immersed in another 5 ml distilled water vial. All extracted solutions were analyzed by visible light spectroscopy for absorbance comparison. The statistical results showed that the absorbance values were significantly different in the first day of extraction than the following days. However, there was no statistical difference among the 2nd, 3rd and 4th days of extraction. Biological stain loading to acrylic resin at the mixing stage, and then after extraction in distilled water, showed a burst release during the first day followed by a constant release during the following few days.
