  • The Compton backscatter technique has been applied to lap-joint in aircraft structure in order to determine mass loss due to exfoliative corrosion of the aluminum alloy sheet skin. The mass loss of each layer has been estimated from Compton backscatter A-scan including the aluminum sheet, the corrosion layer, and the sealant. A Compton backscattering imaging system has been also developed to obtain a cross-sectional profile of corroded lap-splices of aging aircraft using a specially designed slit-type camera. The camera is to focus on a small scattering volume inside the material from which the backscattered photons are collected by a collimated scintillator detector for interpretation of material characteristics. The cross section of the layered structure is scanned by moving the scattering volume through the thickness direction of the specimen. The theoretical model of the Compton scattering based on Boltzmann transport theory is presented for quantitative characterization of exfoliative corrosion through deconvolution procedure using a nonlinear least-square error minimization method. It produces practical information such as location and width of planar corrosion in layered structures of aircraft, which generally cannot be detected by conventional NDE techniques such as the ultrasonic method.

  • The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of deformable liposomes with sodium cholate on the skin permeation and skin deposition of arbutin, a hydrophilic skin-whitening agent. Various compositions of liposomes were prepared by the extrusion method. Particle size distribution and entrapment efficiency were determined by the laser light scattering and the gel permeation chromatography, respectively. The in vitro rat skin permeation and deposition of arbutin in various skin layers were investigated using the Keshary-Chien diffusion cells at $37^{\circ}C$. The average particle size of the deformable liposomes ranged from 217.4 to 117.4 nm, depending on the composition. The entrapment efficiency was dependent on surfactant concentration and loading dose of arbutin. The permeation rate of 5% arbutin in deformable liposomes was $8.91({\pm}1.33){\mu}g/cm^2/h$, and was not significantly different from 5% arbutin aqueous solution $[9.82({\m}0.86){\mu}g/cm^2/h]$. The deposition of arbutin was $43.34({\pm}12.13)$ and $16.99({\pm}7.83){\mu}g/cm^2$ in stratum corneum layer and epidermis/dermis layer, respectively, after 12 h of permeation study. These results are consistent with several earlier studies for the localization effect of liposomal formulations in stratum corneum, and demonstrated the feasibility of the deformable liposomes as a promising carrier for the skin deposition of hydrophilic skin-whitening compounds.

  • PET/CT is a medical equipment that detects 0.511 MeV of gamma rays. The radiation workers are inevitably exposed to ionizing radiation in the process of handling the isotope. Accordingly, PET/CT workers use syringe shields made of lead and tungsten to protect their hands. However, lead and tungsten are known to generate very high scattering particles by interacting with gamma rays. Therefore, in this study, we tried to find out the effect on the scattering particles emitted from the syringe shield. In the experiment, first, the exposure dose to the hand (Rod phantom) was evaluated according to the metal material (lead, tungsten, iron, stainless steel) using Monte Carlo simulation. The exposure dose was compared according to whether or not plastic is attached. Second, the exposure dose of scattering particles was measured using a dosimeter and lead. As a result of the experiment, the shielding rate of plastics using the Monte Carlo simulation showed the largest difference in dose of about 40 % in lead, and the lowest in iron, about 15 %. As a result of the dosimeter test, when the plastic tape was wound on lead, it was found that the reduction rate was about 15 %, 28 %, and 39 % depending on the thickness. Based on the above results, it was found that 0.511 MeV of gamma ray interacts with the shielding tool to emit scattered rays and has a very large effect on radiation exposure. However, it was considered that the scattering particles could be sufficiently removed with plastics with a low atomic number. From now on, when using high-energy radiation, the shielding tool and the skin should not be in direct contact, and should be covered with a material with a low atomic number.

  • Monte Carlo simulations were performed for a three-dimensional tissue model with and without an embedded large vessel, to understand how varying vessel geometry affects surface light distribution. Vessel radius was varied from 1 to 5 mm, and vessel depth from 2 to 10 mm. A larger difference in surface fluence rate was observed when the vessel's radius increased. For vessel depth, the largest difference was seen at a depth of approximately 4 mm, corresponding to human wrist region. When the vessel was placed at depths greater than 8 mm, very little difference was observed. We also tested the feasibility of using two source-detector pairs, comprising two detectors distinctly spaced from a common source, to noninvasively measure blood-scattering changes in a large vessel. High sensitivity to blood-scattering changes was achieved by placing the near detector closer to the source and moving the far detector away from the source. However, at longer distances, increasing noise levels limited the sensitivity of the two-detector approach. Our results indicate that the approach using two source-detector pairs may have potential for quantitative measurement of scattering changes in the blood while targeting large vessels near the human wrist region.

  • 최근 고기능성 화장품이 출시되면서 기능성 원료가 빛, 열, 산소에 매우 불안정하여 다양한 방법으로 안정성을 높이려고 연구되어 지고 있다. 특히, 카테킨은 주름 개선에 탁월한 원료이지만 빛, 열, 산소에 매우 불안정하다. 본 연구에서는 카테킨을 3Dimension화 하여 안정성 및 피부 침투를 높였다. 1 dimension으로 sol-gel method로 실리카를 다공성으로 만들어서 다공성 부문에 카테킨을 흡착시킨다. 2 dimension으로 다공성 실리카에 흡착디어진 카테킨을 non-phospholipid 베지클을 이용하여 solid lipid nanoparticle(SLN)을 만든다. 마지막으로 3dimension은 SLN되어진 카테킨을 skin lipid matrix를 이용하여 lameller phase self organization시킨다. 3 Dimension-카테킨은 일반적인 리포좀에 비해 빛과 열에 대한 color 안정성을 chromameter로 측정한 결과 5-10배 더 안정하였으며, HPLC 분석 결과 카테킨의 생존율이 3-5배 더 개선되었다. 또한 penetration effect를 측정한 결과 일반 리포좀보다 더 깊게 침투되었다. Wrinkle reduction effect를 한달 후에 측정한 결과 일반 리포좀보다 주름이 현저하게 감소되었다. 이러한 여러 가지 실험을 위해서 Laser light scattering system, cryo-SEM, chroma meter, HPLC, image analyzer, microfludizer 등을 사용하였다.

  • The confocal laser scanning microscopy and two-photon microscopy was implemented based on a single laser source and an objective lens. We imaged and compared the morphology of identical sites of ex vivo human skin using both microscopes. The back-scattering emission from the sample provided the contrast for the confocal microscopy. The intrinsic autofluorescence and the second harmonic generation were used as the luminescence source for the two-photon microscopy. The wavelength of the Ti:Sapphire laser was tuned at 710 nm, which corresponds to the excitation peak of NADH and FAD in skin tissue. The various cell layers in the epidermis and the papillary dermis were clearly distinguished by both imaging modalities. The two-photon microscopy more clearly visualized the intercellular region and the nucleus of the cell compared to the confocal microscopy. The fibrous structures in the dermis were more clearly resolved by the confocal microscopy. Numerous cells in papillary dermal layer, as deep as $100\;{\mu}m$, were observed in both CLSM and two-photon microscopy. While most previous studies focused on fibrous structure imaging (collagen and elastin fiber) in the dermis, we demonstrated that the combined imaging with the CLSM and two-photon microscopy can be applied for the non-invasive study of the population, distribution and metabolism of papillary dermal cells in skin.

  • 이 연구는 경표피흡수를 위하여 큐빅액정의 자기조직체의 형성에 관한 것이다. 복수 수산기(-OH)를 가지는 친수부에 4개의 메칠 그룹을 가지는 양친매성지질인 diglyceryl phytylacetate (DGPA)를 합성하여 다양한 성능평가를 수행하였다. DGPA의 유화력은 1%의 적은 농도에서도 고 내상의 물을 함유하는 안정한 W/O water-in-oil)에멀젼이 유지되었다. DGPA, dimethicone (2CS), water의 3성분계의 특정영역에서, 안정한 큐빅상의 액정이 형성되었다. 3상 구조도 작성을 통하여 큐빅 액정영역, 헥사고날 영역, 물과 헥사고날이 혼제된 영역, 역미셀 영역을 확인하였고, SAXS (small angled x-ray scattering)분석을 통하여 그 구조를 증명하였다. 화장품의 응용으로, 큐보좀 (cubosome)에 10%의 마그네슘아스코르빌포스페이트, 5%의 피리독신트리헥사데카노에이트를 봉입하여 캡슐화하였다. 큐보좀의 occlusive 효과는 역미셀(reverse micelle)보다 1.7배 우수한 효과를 가졌다. 큐보좀을 분산제인 poloxamer를 사용하여 W/O 에멀젼을 만든 것으로부터 큐빅구조의 액정상으로 회복되는 것을 새롭게 발견하였다. 따라서, DGPA의 양친매성지질의 특성을 이용하여, 큐빅상의 액정을 형성하는 기재로써 화장품 산업과 의약품분야에서 경표피흡수제로써 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

  • 빛은 피부에서 개개인마다 상이한 반사, 흡수 및 산란 등의 광학적 거동을 보여준다. 특히, 피부에서 빛의 반사는 분광반사율이라는 물리량 측정을 통해 개인의 피부 밝기지표로 널리 활용되어 왔다. 따라서 피부에서 빛의 반사 거동 연구는 개인 맞춤형 화장품, 특히 메이크업 제품 개발에 있어 좀 더 효율적인 처방 개선에 기여하거나 새로운 평가법에 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 Kubelka-Munk 모델을 이용하여 개인의 피부 특성에 따른 빛의 분광반사율 거동에 대해 다각적인 분석을 수행하였다. 또한, 상기 모델과 기존에 알려진 문헌 정보를 이용하여 개인의 피부 분광반사율에 영향을 줄 수 있는 피부 두께 및 헤모글로빈 등의 다양한 파라미터들에 대한 기여도 분석을 수행하였다. 이를 통해, 일반적인 여성의 피부에서의 분광반사율 이론치를 계산하였고, 분광반사율 실측을 통해 이론치와 실측치 간의 유사성을 확인하였다. Kubelka-Munk 모델을 이용한 피부 분광반사율 연구는 향후 새로운 개인 맞춤형 메이크업 화장품 개발에 유용하게 이용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
