BACKGROUND: Kale (Brassica oleracea) biosynthesizes various phytochemicals including glucosinolates, flavonoids, and carotenoids. Phytochemicals of plants are influenced by light, temperature, carbon dioxide, and growing conditions. Specifically, carotenoids are affected by temperature, light, and oxygen. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of cold stress (day/night: $25^{\circ}C/20^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C/15^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C/10^{\circ}C$) on carotenoids in kale leaves. METHODS AND RESULTS: Kale was grown in pots for up to 50 days after sowing (DAS) in a greenhouse. For cold acclimation experiments, kale grown in growth chambers for 3 days and was subjected to low temperature for 4 days. The conditions maintained in the growth chambers were as follows: photoperiod, 12/12 h (day/night); light, fluorescent; and relative humidity, 60%. Carotenoid (lutein, ${\alpha}-carotene$, zeaxanthin, ${\beta}-carotene$) contents were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The total carotenoid content gradually increased during cold acclimation for 3 days. When kale was subjected to cold stress, the total carotenoid content was high at $25^{\circ}C/20^{\circ}C$ treatment, but low at $15^{\circ}C/10^{\circ}C$ treatment. The total carotenoid content of kale leaves continuously grown in greenhouse decreased from 50 to 57 DAS (1,418 and 1,160 mgkg-1 dry wt., respectively). The lutein, ${\alpha}-carotene$, and ${\beta}-carotene$ contents were very low and the zeaxanthin contents were very high at $15^{\circ}C/10^{\circ}C$ treatment. When kale was subjected to cold stress, the ratio of individual to the total carotenoid contents of kale leaves was 4553% for -carotene and 210% for zeaxanthin. CONCLUSION: The ${\beta}-carotene$ and zeaxanthin contents in kale leaves indicate their sensitiveness toward cold stress.

Bumblebees are important pollinators of crops and wildflowers. The Korean native bumblebee, Bombus ignitus, undergoes one generation per year, and induction of artificial hibernation is essential for year-round rearing of the bumblebee. Keeping queens under cold treatment conditions for several mo is an effective method for terminating their diapause and promoting colony development. In the present study, we investigated how the timing and duration of chilling affect the artificial hibernation of B. ignitus queens. In the timing assessment, cold treatment was instituted at 12 d, 40 d, or 100 d after eclosion under a constant temperature of $5^{\circ}C$ and 80% humidity. The queens that entered cold treatment at 12 d after emergence evidenced the highest survival rates: 86.7% at two mo, 73.3% at three mo, and 46.4% at 4 mo. Survival rates were reduced under storage conditions at 12 d, 40 d, and 100 d after emergence. When queens were subjected to chilling at 8 d, 12 d, or 16 d after eclosion with constant 80% humidity, the queens stored at 12 d after eclosion exhibited the highest survival rates, which were 84.6 at one mo, 25.0% at two mo, and 7.9% at three mo. In regards to the duration of the cold period, the queens that hibernated for at least two mo evidenced optimal colony development rates. The rates of oviposition, colony foundation, and progeny-queen production of queens hibernated for two mo were 60.0%, 30.0%, and 13.3%, respectively. These values were 6.0 to 13.3 times higher than those in the queens that hibernated for 15 d. Therefore, a cold period of at least 2 mo applied 12 d after emergence were found to be the most favorable conditions for diapause break in B. ignitus queens.

Purpose : There are many patients with cold hypersensitivity who want oriental medicine treatment. But there has been no study of acupucture treatment effect on patients. So we examined effects of acupuncture treatment at different acupuncture points and compared results of 1st cold stress test and 2nd cold stress test. Method : 8 patients with hand cold hypersensitivity applied for this study. To rule out an bias, we excluded the patients with skin diseases, spinal nerve disease of cervial spine, external wounds. We measured body temperature with D.I.T.I. We performed cold stress test(CST) by 6 thermographic observation using D.I.T.I ; the 1st was taken after 15 minutes-resting, the 2nd was immediately taken after 1 minute soak in $20^{\circ}C$ water, the 3rd was taken at 10 minutes after the soak, and after a week, the 4th was taken after 15 minutes resting, the 5th was immediately taken after 1 minute soak in $20^{\circ}C$ water, the 6th was taken after 10 minutes with acupunture treatment. There were two groups of patients. First group was acupuncture that performed acupuncture therapy on distal points. Second group was acupuncture that performed acupuncture therapy on proximal points. We compared first CST and second CST recovery rate result. Results : The recovery rate at distal points acupuncture therapy was higher than before of that. but not significantly different. The recovery rate at proximal points acupuncture therapy was significantly higher than before of that. The recovery rate of both the back, the palms, all fingers of after proximal acupuncture therapy was significantly higher than before of that. Conclusions : Acupuncture could be effective therapy method on cold hypersensitivity, especially using proximal acupuncture points could be good at cold hypersensitivity patients. This was pilot study of very small samples, results had limitations. For further results more examine would be needed.

유채(B. napus)와 산동채(B. campestris)를 공시하여 발아초기단계에서의 저온처리가 분자산소의 생물학적 환원과 관련이 있는 여러가지 생화학적 인자에 미치는 영향을 분석하여 작물 내한성 기작을 생화학적으로 구명하고자 한 바, 저온장해는 산동채에 비해 유채가 더욱 심하였고 저온처리후 24시간 회복시 유채와 산동채의 peroxidase 활성도는 뿌리부위에서 각각 33%와 87% 배축부위에서 84%와 206% 정도 크게 증가하였으며 특히 내한성이 강한 산동채가 유채보다, 배축부위가 뿌리보다 약 2.5배 이상 더 높은 효소활성 증가율을 보였다. 또한 superoxide($O_2^-$)는 회복직후 부터 급격히 축적되기 시작하여 회복 8시간째에 최고치에 도달하였으며 그 축적정도는 산동채에 비해 내한성이 약한 유채에서 더욱 심하였고, 24시간 회복시에도 산동채는 거의 무처리 수준까지 회복되었으나 유채는 약 38%의 $O_2^-$가 여전히 축적되어 있었다. 저온처리 직후 $H_2O_2$의 감소 정도 역시 산동채가 15% 정도인데 반해 유채는 2%에 불과하였고, 회복시간이 경과함에 따라 산동채는 거의 정상수준까지 회복되었으나 저온장해가 심하였던 유채는 불안정한 회복양상을 보였다. 아울러 유채의 배축 및 뿌리부위에서의 peroxidase 활성증가에는 Uniconazole 처리후 저온 병행처리가 단독처리보다 훨씬 펴 효과적이었으나 새로운 동위효소의 출현은 볼 수 없었다.

본 연구에서는 양상추에 접종된 E. coli O157:H7, S. Typhimurium과 L. monocytogene에 대하여 저온 플라즈마와 UV-C 단독처리 및 병행처리 효과를 측정하였다. E. coli O157:H7, S. Typhimurium, L. monocytogenes는 양상추에 초기 농도가 5.82, 5.09, 5.65 log CFU/g이 되도록 각각 접종하였다. 저온 플라즈마와 UV-C를 처리된 양상추는 $4^{\circ}C$에서 9일간 보관하며 미생물학적 분석과 관능평가를 실시하였다. 저온 플라즈마 처리는 E. coli O157:H7, S. Typhimurium, L. monocytogenes의 개체 수를 각각 0.26, 0.65, 0.93 log CFU/g 수준으로 감소시켰다. 또한, UV-C 처리 시 각각 0.87, 0.88, 1.14 log CFU/g 수준으로 감소되었다. 또한 UV-C 처리 후 저온 플라즈마를 처리한 병행처리에서는 각각 1.44, 2.70, 1.62 log CFU/g 수준으로 감소하였다. 저온 플라즈마와 UV-C 단독처리 보다는 병행처리가 좀 더 효과적으로 균을 저감하는 것으로 판단되었다. 관능평가 결과는 외관, 질감, 전체적인 수용도 면에서 대조구와 비교하였을 때, 보관 6일까지 유의적인 차이가 없었다. 따라서 저온 플라즈마와 UV-C 병행처리는 양상추에 존재하는 균을 저감하기 위한 효과적인 기술로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각되었다.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of transformation induced martensite on the tensile properties of Fe-20Mn-12Cr-3Ni-3Si alloy. α' and ε-martensite were formed by cold rolling, and these martensite were formed with according to the specific direction, surface relief and partially intersection. With an increasing degree of cold rolling, amount of α'-martensite was slowly increased, whereas amount of ε-martensite was rapidly increased. Volume fraction of ε-martensite formed by cold working was large than α'-martensite. Tensile strength was rapidly increase and elongation was rapidly decreased with an increasing of degree of cold rolling. This means that tensile strengh and elongation was greatly influenced by the volume fraction of ε-martensite formed by cold rolling then α'-martensite.

This study presents the enhancement of forgeability of SNCM522H materials. Target parts are output shaft(OP shaft) used as components of power train for automobiles. To carry out cold forging process of OP shaft by 1 pass instead of existing 2 pass process, studies in terms of process design and heat treatment were performed. To introduce the new process, the finite element method was accomplished, and to assess the validity of proposed heat treatment cycle, several experiments(hardness test, observation of optical microstructures, tensile test) were carried out. The 2Pass forging process could be reduced as lPass process through improvement of process and heat treatment technology and that would give cost reduction.

Cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) is a material that generates free radicals through the ionization of air. Despite the application in various medical fields, the efficacy and safety of CAP on post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation due to atopic dermatitis have not been reported. Herein, we report the improvement in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation of atopic dermatitis, after CAP treatment of three sessions weekly, 10 minutes per session. We examined the clinical severity indexes before and after treatment, including the Investigator's Global Assessment, modified Atopic Dermatitis Antecubital Severity, Eczema Area and Severity Index, and pruritus visual analogue scores. Our results indicate that CAP alleviates the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and clinical severity of atopic dermatitis, and effectively improves the atopic skin lesion without severe safety issues. We believe that the previously reported anti-bacterial effects and production of interleukin-6 after CAP treatment are probably responsible for the underlying mechanisms leading to clinical improvement.

Cold rolled steel sheet for automotive was treated by Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma to improve the adhesive bonding strength. Through the contact angle test and calculation of surface free energy for cold rolled steel sheet, the changes of surface properties were investigated before and after plasma treatment. The contact angle was decreased and surface free energy was increased after plasma treatment. And the change of surface roughness and morphology were observed by AFM(Atomic Force Microscope). The surface roughness of steel sheet was slightly changed. Based on Taguchi method, single lap shear test was performed to investigate the effect of experimental parameter such as plasma power, treatment time and flow rate of $O_2$ gas. Results shows that the bonding strength of steel sheet treated in Ar/$O_2$ atmospheric pressure plasma was improved about 20% compared with untreated sheet.
