Consumers have recently preferred to purchase extensive UV intercepting products, which are waterproof and free from side effects on skin. During the testing of cytotoxicity (in-vitro) in neutral red (NR) method, cell survival ratio of UV-B interceptors decreased to just above 0.08 w/v%, and it was observed that the UV-A interceptors the ratio also decreased to just above 0.06 w/v%. In addition patch-tests of inorganic UV interceptors resulted in no skin irritation even below 10.0 and 11.25. In absorption curves, UV-B was most suitable for octyl methoxycinnamate (OMC) and UV-A for butyl methoxy dibenzoylmethane (BMDM). For this reason, $Nylonpoly^{TM}$ UVA/UVB the material of OMC and BMDM coated with Nylon & polyethylene, was used as the organic UV interceptor. Zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) was used as inorganic UV interceptors. The appropriate mixture ratio of ZnO and $TiO_2$ was 6 to 4:6% of ZnO, 4% of $TiO_2$ and 5% of $Nylonpoly^{TM}$ UVA/UVB were all combined and added to our sunscreen cream. The SPF value of in-vitro was 38.9. In practical application, each sun protection factor (SPF) duration of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion and water-in-silicone (W/S) emulsion containing sunscreen cream of the same content showed that W/S type of sunscreen cream was 5 times as durable as the other. Therefore, this product is fit for use in swimming, climbing or skiing. This research is to minimize skin trouble caused by UV interceptors and to make one with proper softness, skin safety and UV intercepting efficiency.

3-(N-Carbonylpyrrolidone)-propanoic acid potassium-salt and 3-(N-carbonylpyrrolidone)propenoic acid potassium-salt were synthesized by the reaction of 2-pyrrolidone potassium-salt with succinic anhydride and maleic anhydride in acetone and in acetone and in benzene. The anionic polymerization of 2-pyrrolidone with 3-(N-carbonylpyrrolidone)-propanoic acid potassium-salt or 3-(N-carbonylpyrrolidone)-propenoic acid potassium-salt as an initiator and potassium hydroxide as a catalyst was studied. It was found that 2.0 and 1.0 mole %, concentration of catalyst and initiator, and temperature of $50^{\circ}C$ was the optimum condition obtaining highest conversion and viscosity of polymer. The inherent viscosity of nylon 4 was measured to be 1.2 dl/g and 2.3 dl/g.

Digoxigenin (DIG) was used to prepare nucleic acid probe for the detection of RNA of potato leafroll virus (PLRV) in the potato leaf extracts. The 0.6 kb coat protein (CP) gene cDNA of PLRV in plasmid pSPT 18 vector was labeled with digoxigenin by in vitro run-off transcription and then used for cRNA probe. In the several buffers tested for increase the total RNA extraction efficiency AMES buffer was the most suitable for this detection method. The RNA extracts from potato leaves shown symptoms of PLRV were dot blotted onto nylon membrane and hybridized with labeled RNA probes. After hybridization, labeled RNA bound to PLRV RNA on membrane was detected with anti-digoxigenin alkaline phosphatase. 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-phosphate/nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) salt and CSPD were used as substrate for colorimetric and film exposure detection, respectively. These detection methods were very sensitive allowing for detection of 1/32 diluted total RNA extract from 100 mg leaf tissue.

Purpose: Male hypertrophic nipples can lead to psychological distress and physical discomfort. The authors present a new technique of male nipple reduction and describe its advantages Methods: The neonipple is designed to reduce diameter and height of nipple while preserving the subdermal plexus. After the central wedge excision, additional four triangular section of nipple skin is excised. One of the remaining two flaps is amputated partially and both flaps were approximated using 4 - 0 PDS and 6 - 0 Nylon sutures. Results: Between December of 2007 and January of 2009, 52 nipple reductions were performed in 30 male patients(mean = 29.5 years). Postoperative recovery was rapid and few complications were encountered. The mean diameter of the hypertrophic nipple was $9.1{\pm}2.5mm$(range, 7 to 15 mm). The mean diameter of the neonipple was $5.0{\pm}0.7mm$(range, 4 to 6 mm), with an average reduction of $3.8{\pm}0.6mm$(range, 2 to 11 mm). At follow-up, the neonipple had a natural appearance, with less projection and an inconspicuous scar. Conclusion: The wedge and triangular skin excision and partial amputation are easy to perform and yields consistent results. This technique decreases both the diameter and height of any size nipple and can be modified to meet patient preferences.

A study on the formation of particulate nitrate$(NO_3^-)$ and gaseous nitrate$(HNO_3)$ in the atmosphere was carried out in Seoul from Oct 8 to 11 1991. To collect $NO_3^-$ and $HNO_3$ in the ambient air, dual filter pack sampler (47mm$\phi$) was used. In the dual filter pack sampler, the first filter was Teflon filter (poresize 1$\mum$) for collection of $NO_3^-$ and the second filter was Nylon filter (poresize 0.45 $\mum$) for $HNO_3$. Particulate nitrate$(NO_3^-)$ and Sulfate ions were analysed by Ion chromatography. $HNO_3$ concentration was higher in the day time $(9.93\mug/m^3)$ than the night time$(3.50\mug/m^3)$, and Particulate nitrate$(NO_3^-)$ concentration was higher in the night time and early morning$(6.21\mug/m^3)$ than the day time$(4.31\mug/m^3)$. The conversion rate of $NO_x$ to total nitrate$(NO_3^-, HNO_3)$ was 7.57%/hr in the day time and 4.79%/hr in the night time, and total average conversion rate was 5.60%/hr.

The theoretical equation for the relaxation spectrum of nonlinear viscoelastic polymeric material was derived from the Ree-Eyring and Maxwell non-Newtonian model. This model consists of infinite number of hyperbolic sine law Maxwell elements coupled in parallel plus a spring without a dashpot. Infinite number of nonlinear viscoelastic Maxwell elements can be used by specifying distribution of relaxation times, hole volumes, molecular weights, crystallite size and conformational size, etc. The experimentals of stress relaxation were carried out using the tensile tester with the solvent chamber. The relaxation spectra of nylon 6 filament fibers in various electrolytic solutions were obtained by applying the experimental stress relaxation curves to the theoretical equation of relaxation spectrum. The determination of relaxation spectra was performed from computer calculation.

PET/면, 나일론/PET, 나일론/면 등 다양한 복합섬유소재를 염색하기 위해서는 복합섬유소재를 구성하는 각각의 섬유소재에 따라 적합한 염료를 선정하고 그에 맞는 염색방법을 사용하여 진행되고 있다. 하지만 이런 경우 색상과 견뢰도 등의 물성을 맞추기 위한 복잡한 염색공정 및 긴 염색시간에 의한 생산비용 상승 등 여러 문제점이 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 하나의 염료를 이용하여 다양한 섬유를 염색하는 방법에 대한 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 새로운 염료합성의 경우 섬유와 결합할 수 있는 반응기를 분산염료구조에 도입하여 염색조건에 따라 다양한 섬유를 염색할 수 있는 universal dye의 개발에 초점이 맞추어져 있다. 반응성염료와 분산염료의 특성을 동시에 만족시키기 위한 일환으로서 염료의 분자 구조 내에 상기의 염료특성을 동시에 발휘하는 소위 "반응성 분산염료"의 개발이 이에 속한다. 본 연구의 목적은 화학구조가 다른 네 종류의 sulphatoethylsulphone기를 갖는 반응성분산염료들을 합성하고 이들의 나일론, PET, 면 및 교직물에 대한 염색성을 분석하는 것이다. 면 섬유에 대한 Dye 1~4의 염색온도에 따른 염색성을 살펴보면, 각 염료들의 염색성은 염색온도에 따라 큰 영향을 받고 있음을 알 수 있으며, Dye 1, 4는 염색온도가 높을수록 K/S 값이 증가하고 Dye 2, 3은 염색온도가 낮을수록 K/S 값이 증가함을 알 수 있다. Nylon에 대한 Dye 1의 염색속도는 pH 4 > pH 5 > pH 8 > pH 7 > pH 6의 순서로 나타나 pH 6에서의 염착 평형이 pH 4보다 40분 정도 늦게 도달하였다. 나일론과 PET의 동욕염색에 있어 Dye 1은 나일론의 경우 초기부터 빠른 흡착을 보이며 $100^{\circ}C$가 되는 60분에는 K/S값이 16에 도달하여 염착 평형에 근접한 것을 알 수 있으며, PET는 $100-200^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 염색속도가 빨라지며 본격적으로 흡수하였다. N/C 교직물에 대한 Dye 2, 3의 빌드업성은 두 염료 모두 염료농도의 증가에 따라 K/S 값 역시 선형적으로 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 나일론 섬유는 네 가지 염료로 우수하게 염색되었고, 면 섬유는 수용성기를 가진 Dye 2와 3, 그리고 PET 섬유는 소수성이 높은 Dye 1과 4가 적합하였다. N/P 및 N/C 교직물의 염색에 있어 나일론 성분으로 염료가 더 많이 흡착하여 나일론섬유가 더 진하게 염색되지만 교직물의 직물조직에 의하여 표면과 이면은 각각 거의 동색으로 보였다.

This research was designed to compare clothing fabric images between on- and off-line by fabric types and its characteristics. 125 subjects who have a fashion design major evaluated the fabric image of various 16 kinds of specimens on- and off-line. Frequency, x2-test, t-test, and Pearson correlation were used for statistical analysis by SPSS WIN 11.0. The results of this study are as follows: 1. The advantage of on-line shopping includes low price and purchasing convenience, etc. On-line shoppers mostly purchase clothing items, such as T-shirt and slacks. In most cases, texture of fabrics provides a main cause for the shoppers' discontentment with internet shopping. 2. The results of t-test for the difference of the evaluation score show that plain or pile weave and highly thick or thin fabrics-for example, Organdy, Corduroy, Nylon Taffeta, Plush, etc.-have a large difference between on-and off-line image. On the other hand, medium-thick twill weave-for example, Tweed, Flannel, etc.-or patterned weave-Chiffon, Dobby fabric, etc.-shows a small difference. 3. The results of correlation of the evaluation score indicate that wool twill fabrics like Tweed, Saxony, and Polafleece show a high correlation between two kinds of evaluation score. In texture preference, no correlation exists between on-line and off-line. 4. With an analysis on fabric image evaluation by fabric characteristics, smooth, shiny pink Satin was found the most positively-evaluated item in all evaluation fields except in pattern preference and individuality. On the other hand, thick olive green Corduroy was evaluated most negatively in the fields of elegance, luxury, and feminine. 5. When compared with real ones, thin fabrics provide a different on-line fabric image. For example, Nylon Taffeta and Organdy were evaluated positively on-line because of luster and pastel tone color. However, lusterless uneven cotton Seersucker was evaluated negatively. 6. Real fabrics preference is more negative than on-line ones. In addition, patterned or unique fabrics display a high agreement between the two kinds of images.

The experiment was carried out using fistulated multiparous Holstein Friesian crossbred (75% Holstein Friesian and 25% Red Sindhi) dairy cows in their dry period fed on untreated rice straw to evaluate the nutritive value of local protein feed resources using the in sacco method and in vitro pepsin-pancreatin digestion. Experimental feeds were cottonseed meal (CSM); soybean meal (SBM); dried brewery's grains (DBG); palm kernel meal (PSM); cassava hay (CH); leucaena leaf meal (LLM). Each feedstuff was weighed into duplicate nylon bags and incubated in each of the two rumen fistulated cows for 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 24, and 48 h. Rumen feed residues from bags of 16 h incubation were used for estimation of lower gut digestibility by the technique of in vitro pepsin-pancreatin digestion. Ruminal ammonia-nitrogen ($NH_3-N$) concentrations did not differ between treatments or time with a mean of 5.5 mg%. Effective degradability of DM of CSM, SBM, DBG, PSM, CH and LLM were 41.9, 56.1, 30.8, 47.0, 41.1 and 47.5%, respectively. Effective degradabilities of the CP in feedstuffs were 49.6, 59.2, 40.9, 33.5, 47.3 and 65.0% for the respective feedstuffs. The CP in vitro pepsin-pancreatin digestibility as ranked from the highest to the lowest were SBM, CSM, LLM, CH, DBG, PSM, respectively. The intestinal and total tract digestion of feedstuffs in the current study were relatively lower than that obtained from previous literature. The results of this study indicate that SBM and LLM were highly degradable in the rumen, while CH, CSM and DBG were less degradable and, hence resulted in higher rumen undegradable protein. Soybean meal and LLM could be used to improve rumen ecology whilst CH, CSM and DBG could be used as rumen by-pass protein for ruminant feeding in the tropics.
