Yi Sunsin's artifacts had been exhibited at Hyeonchungsa in Asan-si, Chungchungnam-do. These artifacts include Janggeom(Long swords), Okno(Jade ornament of Korea traditional hat), Yodae(Waist belt) and Dobae(Peach shaped wine cups) Gudae(Yodae's saucers). These were covered with dust and corroded due to long term display. Condition of these artifacts was examined for a re-opening of Yi Chungmugong Memorial Pavilion on 28 March 2011. Before conservation treatment of the artifacts, scientific analysis was conducted to identify the material of the artifacts. The result showed that the red paint on the hilt of the sword is composed of two layers. Pigments of two layers were found to be hematite and cinnabar mixed with red lead respectively. Mixed layer was assumed to have been applied recently. Also it was found that the blade of the sword was repainted using chrome yellow($PbCrO_4$). Considering the time limit, conservation treatment focused on stabilization of damaged area and prevention of futher risk during display.

The purpose of this paper is to study the image of the 16th Century Honam Chinese poetry. for that, Park Sang, Im Eokryeong, Ko Gyeongmyeong in this study. This paper identified the characteristics of Ho Nam poetry is two things. First of all, is "literary talent does not acknowledge" consciousness and image of army. Park Sang, Im Eokryeong, Ko Gyeongmyeong was advanced to the center politics with excellent literary talent to the talents our 16th century Honam. However, at that time, the ruling layer was time to lead the politics. Therefore, the three people to frustration. Yet three people were criticizing the reality. And they thought that they were unhappy. It is unfortunate that they did because of their literary talent to be recognized. Three people were very sensitive to not be recognized literary talent. This is because they were subject to the management by the literary ability. It does not recognize the literary consciousness appears as sword, spear, admiral image. Second, The HwaIbulryu consciousness and image of integrity. Park Sang, Im Eokryeong, Ko Gyeongmyeong thought it not right politics. Yet continued to politics. This is not behavior that is typical scholar. What they did so because we follow a man named Yuhahye. A man named yuhahye pursue life, be it a dirty political reality was to continue the crest. But that never lose their integrity. Three people who will follow the life of this Yuhahye. This is a life attitude graft Japanese apricot flower, oriole, rock of pillar, appears as an image.

Since 1993, a total of 50 problematic plant diseases unrecorded in Korea were surveyed in Gyeongnam province. Totally 34 new host plants to corresponding pathogens investigated in this study were 5 fruit trees, 9 vegetables, 12 ornamental plants, 3 industrial crops, and 5 medicinal plants. Among the newly recorded fruit tree diseases, fruit rot of pomegranate caused by Coniella granati and Rhizopus soft rot of peach caused by Rhizopus nigricans damaged severely showing 65.5% and 82.4% infection rate. Among the vegetable diseases, corynespora leaf spot of pepper caused by Corynespora cassiicola and the crown gall of pepper caused by Agrobacterium tumefaciens, powdery mildew of tomato caused by Oidiopsis taurica were the most severe revealing 47.6%, 84.7%, and 54.5% infection rate in heavily infected fields, respectively. In ornamental plants, collar rot of lily caused by Sclerotium rolfsii, gray mold of primula caused by Botrytis cinerea, soot leaf blight of dendrobium caused by Pseudocercospora dendrobium, sclerotinia rot of obedient plant caused by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum showed 32.7 to 64.8% disease incidence. On three industrial plants such as sword bean, broad bean, and cowpea, eight diseases were firstly found in this study. Among the diseases occurring on broad bean, rust caused by Uromyces viciae-fabae and red spot caused by Botrytis fabae were the major limiting factor for the cultivation of the plant showing over 64% infection rate in fields. In medicinal plants, anthracnose of safflower caused by Collectotrichum acutatum was considered the most severe disease on the plant and followed by collar rot caused by Sclerotium rolfsii.(중략)

The objective of this article is to investigate and analyze the way how the suture surgery was operated in case of external wound or incision in past Korea. The method to do this study was to search the books on the website, Knowledge of Oriental Medicine Web Service, databased and serviced by Korean Institute of Oriental Medicine. The searching key word was '縫'. The results was as follows. According to the website search, ten subjects of suture surgery could be classified: sword wound(金瘡), horse bite(馬咬), intestine incision(腸肚傷), knife or ax wound(刀斧傷), larynx incision(割喉), intestine protrusion by cow collision(牛觸腸出), self-stabbing of neck(自刎), falling from tree(童稚上木墮下), lip injury(趺損唇皮) and face wound(顔面의 外傷). Furthermore, the kinds of suturing fiber, the way how to stitch, the kinds of medical care before and after the suture surgery could also be found

Due to their novel properties, GaN based semiconductors and their nanostructures are promising components in a wide range of nanoscale device applications. In this work, the gallium nitride is deposited on c-axis oriented sapphire and porous SWCNT substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using a novel single source precursor of $Me_2Ga(N_3)NH_2C(CH_3)_3$ with ammonia as an additional source of nitrogen. The advantage of using a single molecular precursor is possible deposition at low substrate temperature with good crystal quality. The deposition is carried out in a substrate temperature range of 600-750$^{\circ}C$. The microstructural, structural, and optical properties of the samples were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence. The results show that substrate oriented columnar-like morphology is obtained on the sapphire substrate while sword-like GaN nanorods are obtained on porous SWCNT substrates with rough facets. The crystallinity and surface morphology of the deposited GaN were influenced significantly by deposition temperature and the nature of the substrate used. The growth mechanism of GaN on sapphire as well as porous SWCNT substrates is discussed briefly.

Material of a Bryocamptus species, formerly reported as B. umiatensis Wilson, 1958 from Sakhalin and South Korea, is here recognized as a distinct new species. Specimens of both sexes were recently obtained from an alpine wetland, Sumeunmulbaengdui, located in the Hallasan National Park, Korea, and newly registered as a Ramsar Wetland in 2015. The new species, B. jejuensis n. sp., differs from the type population of B. umiatensis from Alaska by the smooth margin of the anal operculum in both sexes, the peculiarly modified terminal seta on the distal endopodal segment of the male leg 3, the sword-like spinous seta on the distal endopodal segment of the male leg 4, and the presence of a setule row on the inner distal margin of the caudal rami in the female. Both sexes of the new species are described in detail with particular reference to the male characters. A revised key to the seven species of the genus Bryocamptus Chappuis, 1929 occurring in Korean waters is provided.

The use of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in cell-based therapy has attracted extensive interest in the field of regenerative medicine, and it shows applications to numerous incurable diseases. hMSCs show several superior properties for therapeutic use compared to other types of stem cells. Different cell types are discussed in terms of their advantages and disadvantages, with focus on the characteristics of hMSCs. hMSCs can proliferate readily and produce differentiated cells that can substitute for the targeted affected tissue. To maximize the therapeutic effects of hMSCs, a substantial number of these cells are essential, requiring extensive ex vivo cell expansion. However, hMSCs have a limited lifespan in an in vitro culture condition. The senescence of hMSCs is a double-edged sword from the viewpoint of clinical applications. Although their limited cell proliferation potency protects them from malignant transformation after transplantation, senescence can alter various cell functions including proliferation, differentiation, and migration, that are essential for their therapeutic efficacy. Numerous trials to overcome the limited lifespan of mesenchymal stem cells are discussed.

Inflammation is a double-edge sword, functioning as a response against external stimuli, but excessive inflammation can lead to a harmful result. Inflammation is important in the development of vascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis and restenosis. Sohamhyung-tang(SHHT) is one of major herbal prescriptions from "Sanghanron", treating congested heat in thorax. It can be seen as an origin of several prescriptions for Hyungbi(胸痺, thoracic congestion), with its major component Trichosanthes semen. This study was done to determine whether SHHT reduces the production of nitrite, index of NO, and pro-inflammatory cytokines in Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 cells. The results show that SHHT inhibited LPS-induced production of NO and PGE2, and iNOS and COX-2 expression, meaning SHHT has a significant anti-inflammatory effect. Based on these results, we suggest that SHTT can be used for prevention and treatment of diseases which starts from chronic inflammatory reactions.
