  • The development of food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) is based on food use and/or dish use. Regardless of potential effect of oils and seasonings on chronic diseases, most of food-based FFQs do not include oils and seasonings in calculation of nutrient intake. This study examined the effect of added (seasoning) oils and seasonings on the distribution of subjects by relative nutrient intake using a dish-based FFQ. The subjects were 1,303 persons (men 478, women 825) aged over 20 years old, who completed FFQ composed of 121 items. Three types of daily nutrient intake were calculated; 1) total nutrient intake with oils and seasonings, 2) nutrient intake without oils, and 3) nutrient intake without oils and seasonings. The correlation and agreement of classification of subjects by relative nutrient intake were examined. All analyses were performed using absolute nutrient intakes and total energy-adjusted nutrient intakes by residual method. Comparing total nutrient intake with the nutrient intake without oils, energy, vegetable fat and vitamin E intake were significantly decreased and kappa values were 0.95 (${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.98), 0.64 (${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.81), and 0.59 (${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.79), respectively. Comparing total nutrient intake with the nutrient intake without oils and seasonings, most of nutrients intake except animal fat, animal protein, retinol and cholesterol were significantly decreased, and kappa values of vegetable fat (${\kappa}$ = 0.64, ${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.81), vitamin E (${\kappa}$ = 0.59, ${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.79) and sodium (${\kappa}$ = 0.61, ${\kappa}{\omega}$ = 0.80) were under 0.80. After total energy was adjusted, agreement was lower than before total energy adjustment. Excluding oils and seasonings to assess nutrient intake underestimated vegetable fat, vitamin E and sodium intake and affected the distribution of subjects by their relative nutrient intake. Therefore, we suggest that research focused on these nutrients need to be cautious about the interpretation of the results.

  • 어분의 미지성장인자(UGF)중 하나는 오메가($\omega$)-3 지방산 - 동물성 단백질의 왕자라고 할 어분은 전 세계적으로 양어사료는 물론 양계사료 및 이유자돈 사료로 널리 이용되어 왔다. 특히 어분의 미지성장인자(UFG ;Unknown Growth factor)인 오메가($\omega$)-3 지방산은 면역체세포의 활력도 증진시키는 작용도 하고 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 하지만 1970년대 초, 미국의 어분생산량이 급격히 감소하면서부터 가축사료의 단백질 공급원으로서 어분이 차지하던 자리는 대두박 등의 식물성 박류에게 넘겨줄 수 밖에 없었다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 단미사료의 80($\%$를 수입에 의존하여, `보세가공 축산`이라는 부정할 수 없는 꼬리표까지 달고 있는 우리나라가 어분의 생산량만큼은 충분하다고하니 반가운 일이 아닐 수 없다. 어분의 사료영양학적 가치를 제대로 파악하여 우리나라 부존자원의 활용을 높이는 것은 국가적으로도 이익이 아닐수 없을 것이다. 본고에선 그러한 어분의 영양학적 특징과 미지성장인자(未知成長因子)의 역할 중 오메가($\omega$)-3 지방산 및 단백질 공급원으로써의 어분을 양계사료 및 이유자돈 사료에 이용함으로써 얻어지는 이익에 대해 논하고자 한다.

  • Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are the major components of brain and retina, and are the essential fatty acids with important physiologically active functions. Thus, PUFAs should be provided to children, and are very important in the brain growth and development for fetuses, newborn infants, and children. Omega-3 fatty acids decrease coronary artery disease and improve blood flow. PUFAs have been known to have anti-inflammatory action and improved the chronic inflammation such as auto-immune diseases or degenerative neurologic diseases. PUFAs are used for metabolic syndrome related with obesity or diabetes. However, there are several considerations related with intake of PUFAs. Obsession with the intake of unsaturated fatty acids could bring about the shortage of essential fatty acids that are crucial for our body, weaken the immune system, and increase the risk of heart disease, arrhythmia, and stroke. In this review, we discuss types, physiologic mechanism of action of PUFAs, intake of PUFAs for children, recommended intake of PUFAs, and considerations for the intake of PUFAs.

  • Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (${\omega}3$-fatty acid) have been found to possess anticancer properties in a variety of cancer cell lines and animal models, but their effects in human tongue squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) remain unclear. This study was designed to examine the effect of ${\omega}3$-fatty acid desaturase (fat-1) gene expression on invasion and tumorigenicity in human tongue SCC cells and the molecular mechanism of its action. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) treatment inhibited in vitro invasion in a dose-dependent manner. In zymography, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and Matrix metallopeptidase-2 (MMP-2) activities were reduced, and MMP-9 and MMP-2 promoter activities were inhibited by the DHA treatment. In addition, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) promoter reporter activities were inhibited in SCC-4 and SCC-9 cells after the DHA treatment. To investigate the effect of a high level of endogenous ${\omega}3$ fatty acids, a stable SCC-9 cell line expressing the ${\omega}3$-desaturase gene (fSCC-9sc) was generated. The growth rate and colony-forming capacity of fSCC-9sc were remarkably decreased as compared with those of fSCC-9cc. Likewise, the tumor size and volume of fSCC-9sc implanted into nude mice were significantly inhibited, with increases in the cell death index. Furthermore, a transwell chamber invasion assay showed a reduction in cell invasion of the fSCC-9sc lines when compared with that of the fSCC-9cc line. These findings suggested that fat-1 gene expression inhibited tumorigenicity, as well as invasion in human tongue SCC cells. Thus, utilization of ${\omega}3$ fatty acids may represent a promising therapeutic approach for chemoprevention and the treatment of human tongue SCCs.

  • Existence of triple flames in a lean-rich concentration field is studied both experimentally and theoretically using large activation energy asymptotic technique adopting counterflow system as a model problem. Experiment shows that in triplet system of a lean and a rich premixed flame separated by a diffusion flame, either lean or rich premixed flame merges with diffusion flame as stretch is increased, such that transition boundary between 3-flame and 2-flame exists. The region in which 3-flame can exist forms an island within rich-lean concentration fields for large stretch, where as it is extends to the line of (.OMEGA.$_{0}$/.OMEGA.$_{F}$)$_{R}$=0 or (.OMEGA.$_{F/}$.OMEGA.$_{0}$)$_{L}$=0 for small stretch. Theoretical results show the qualitative agreement with experiment and the existence of limiting stretch over which 3-flame can not exist.t.t.t.t.t.t.

  • We investigated the effects of a high density $O_2$ plasma treatment on the structural and electrical properties of Ga-, B- codoped ZnO (GZOB) films. The GZOB films were deposited on polymer substrate without substrate heating by DC magnetron sputtering. Prior to the GZOB film growth, we treated a polymer substrate with highly dense inductively coupled oxygen plasma. The optical transmittance of the GZOB film, about 80 %, was maintained regardless of the plasma pre-treatment. The resistivity of the GZOB film on PC substrate decreased from 9.08 ${\times}$ $10^{-3}$ ${\Omega}-cm$ without an $O_2$ plasma pre-treatment to 2.12 ${\times}$ $10^{-3}$ ${\Omega}-cm$ with an $O_2$ plasma pre-treatment. And PES substrate decreased from 1.14 ${\times}$ $10^{-2}$ ${\Omega}-cm$ without an $O_2$ plasma pre-treatment to 6.13 ${\times}$ $10^{-3}$ ${\Omega}-cm$ with an $O_2$ plasma pre-treatment.

  • Gas motion within the engine cylinder is one of the major factors controlling the fuel-air mixing and combustion processes in diesel engines. In this paper, a special swirl-chamber is designed and applied to a DI (direct injection) diesel engine to generate a strong swirl motion thus enhancing gas motion. Compression, combustion and expansion strokes of this DI diesel engine with the swirl-chamber have been simulated by CFD software. The simulation model was first validated through comparisons with experimental data and then applied to do the simulation of the spray and combustion process. The velocity and temperature field inside the cylinder showed the influences of the strong swirl motion to spray and combustion process in detail. Cylinder pressure, average temperature, heat release rate, total amount of heat release, indicated thermal efficiency, indicated fuel consumption rate and emissions of this DI diesel engine with swirl-chamber have been compared with that of the DI diesel engine with $\omega$-chamber. The conclusions show that the engine with swirlchamber has the characteristics of fast mixture formulation and quick diffusive combustion; its soot emission is 3 times less than that of a $\omega$-chamber engine; its NO emission is 3 times more than that of $\omega$-chamber engine. The results show that the DI diesel engine with the swirl-chamber has the potential to reduce emissions.

  • The boron-doped polycrystalline silicon films which can be used in pressure sensors were fabricated in a high-vacuum resistance heating evaporator. Poly-Si films were deposited on quartz substrates at various temperatures and the boron was doped to the silicon film in a diffusion furnace using BN wafer. The silicon films deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ was amorphous, began to show crystalline at $600^{\circ}C$, and became polycrystalline at $700^{\circ}C$. After doping boron at $900^{\circ}C$for 10 minutes, the resistivity of the films was in the range of $0.1{\Omega}cm~1.5{\Omega}cm$, the boron density was $9.4\times10^{15}~2.1\times{10}^{17}cm^{-3}$, and the grain size was $107{\AA}~191{\AA}$.
