Using 3D point data implemented from terrestrial LiDAR, this research has modelled geospatial data in 2 categories(gridded & un-gridded) and conducted LOS analysis experiment using outcome from the modeling exercise. To compare LOS analysis results from each of the 2 models in the above, maximum LOS (line of sight) range in the experimental area was specified as 30m in Area A, 40m in Area B and 50m in Area C and the time taken by LOS analysis and the number of visible points were measured. As for the LOS analysis experiment results, in comparison with the gridded model, the un-gridded model took about 3.9 times more time in Area A, 5.4 times in Area B and 6.5 times in Area C. In addition, about 0.97 times fewer points were measured in Area A, 0.93 times in Area B and 0.94 times in Area C. The difference between gridded model and un-gridded model in terms of the time taken by LOS analysis increased, as the maximum LOS range extended. On the other hand, the number visible points did not vary significantly in reference to the size of visible range.

The purpose of this study was to analyse the stability and validity of the related factors to the caries incidence according to the duration. The subjects were 249 elementary school students. Among them, the number of male students was 137 (55.0%). In the first year, all subjects gave the responses of the questionnaire composed of demographic variables and oral heath behaviors. They also received oral examination and tests of Dentocult SM and Dentocult LB. In the 2nd-4th year, they received second oral examination for the assessment of caries incidence on permanent teeth. The relation of oral health-related factors with caries incidence was analyzed by chi square method and adjusted Relative Risk (RR). In the caries incidence rate for 1 year, those who had 2 or higher score of dentocult LB was 2.3 times higher than those who had 1 or lower. The caries incidence rate for 2 years was highly associated with caries on deciduous molars and dentocult LB. The caries on deciduous molars showed strong association with the caries incidence for 3 years. It was suggested that the association between the caries incidence and the related factors was different according to the duration. Therefore, dentists could need to consider the visiting period in the education of the risk factors of dental caries.

The study aimed to identify risk factors for falls as well as hospitalization status according to disease and demographic characteristics of demented inpatients by investigating the in-depth Injury Patient Surveillance System data collected by Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention(KCDC). Older adults over 60 years old who were diagnosed with dementia were included(n=1,732). Their data were analyzed after being assigned to either a fall group or a non-fall group. STATA was used for statistical analyses, such as frequency analysis, chi-square (χ²) test, and logistics regression. It was found that 8.0% of the demented inpatients experienced falls. According to the analysis on category of fall and non-fall group were statistically significant difference in age and Charlson Comorbidity Index(CCI) and bone density deficiency. Based on the logistic regression analysis of factors affecting falls, older adults over 80 are 2.386 times more likely to fall and based on a target with a CCI of 0, the risk of falls is 0.421 times lower, finally based on those without bone density disorder, the fall risk for those with bone density disorder was 3.581 times higher. Therefore, we expect that the important about the factors relating to falls identified in this can not only be found valuable for educating inpatients with dementia and care-givers, but also be used as reference that supports clinical professionals to make decisions on falls management for patients with dementia.

The aim of the study was to analyze N-nitrosamine (NA) and its precursors in serveral fermented foods which were treated with nitrite, thiocyanate and ascorbic acid under simulated gastric digestion. Every analyzed sample contained nitrate, with levels ranging from 0.3 to 1.3 mg/kg, but nitrite was present at very low levels of less than 0.3 mg/kg. And other precursors of amines such as dimethylamine and trimethylamine were detected less than 0.5 mg/kg in every samples. N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) was detected in the levels of <0.5 ∼ 2.7 ug/kg in soy sauce,1.5∼3.1 ug/kg in soybean paste and <0.5∼1.8 ug/kg in beer, while NDMA levels increased by 1.1∼4.5 times in the fermented foods which were digested under simulated gastric conditions.

The effects of film thickness and moisture absorbing materials(MAM) on the ginger qualities were investigated during MA storage for 150 days. LDPE films of 0.04, 0.06 and 0.08mm thicknesses were applied to select the adequate film in gas permiability. MAMs of sheet and sachet type were applied to 0.06mm-LDPE film bag to prevent moisture condensation during storage. Thickness of film used affected neither weight loss nor firmness of gingers during U storage. But the thinner in thickness showed the less changes in sprouting, spoilage and reducing sugar. Moreover, compared with MAP alone, MAPs with MAM of both sachet and sheet styles led to the weight loss of gingers increasing by more than 3-4 times, but sprouting rate, spoilage rate and reducing sugar decreasing by 3.3, 1.4 and 2.3 times, respectively. These results showed that MAP with UM was significantly effective to prolong the freshness of ginger by longer than 2 times, compared with MAP alone.

The present study was carried out to examine the effect of cysteamine in vitro maturation (IVM) of porcine oocytes and development of porcine IVM/IVF Embryos. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The rates of nuclear maturation, penetrated oocytes, pronuclear formation, polyspermic oocytes and mean numbers of the penetrated sperm were not different in NCSU23 maturation medium with 0, 25, 50 and 100 $\mu$M cysteamine (P〉0.05). 2. The rates of blastocyst formation at day 7 after in vitro fertilization in 0, 25, 50 and 100 $\mu$M cysteamine were 17.9$\pm$6.1, 17.4$\pm$6.3, 24.2$\pm$1.9 and 16.9$\pm$2.0%, respectively. And the total cells were 30.7$\pm$2.4, 34.9$\pm$2.8, 39.6$\pm$2.3 and 36.8$\pm$3.6, respectively. Fifty $\mu$M cystealnine group was significantly higher than those of any other treatment groups (P＜0.05). 3. The ratios of ICM/total cells in 20~40% category were 20.5, 41.6, 19.5 and 31.5%, respectively. Twenty five $\mu$M cysteamine group was higher than those of other groups. 4. The rates of blastocyst formation at day 7 in the NCSU-23 culture medium of porcine IVF-produced embryos with 0, 25, 50, and 100 $\mu$M cysteamine were 16.0$\pm$0.2, 13.6$\pm$1.7, 25.0$\pm$0.8 and 15.7$\pm$4.5%, respectively. And the total cells were 27.0$\pm$3.7, 36.1$\pm$4.8, 34.0$\pm$3.8 and 25.2$\pm$4.4, respectively. Fifty $\mu$M cysteamine group was significantly higher than those of any other treatment groups (P＜0.05). 5. The ratios of ICM/total cells in 20~40% category were 53.8, 30.0, 16.6 and 11.1%, respectively. The addition groups of cysteamine were lower than those of control group. In conclusion, these results suggested that the addition of 50 $\mu$M cysteamine in the IVM medium and 25~50 $\mu$M cysteamine in IVC medium were effective on the blastocyst formation and total cells of blastocysts.

This experiments were carried out to determine the optimum concentrations of plant growth regulators for the direct embryogenesis from the cotyledon culture of Paeonia lactiflora Pall. Zygotic embryos rescued from true seeds were developed abnormally in the medium containing ABA. But somatic embryogenesis from cotyledons of abnormal seedlings was induced more effectively. Also the somatic embryogenesis from cotyledons was promoted in the medium containing ABA. The frequency of embryogenesis was maximum(59.9%) from the cotyledons cultured on MS medium containing 0.5 mg/L ABA on which the frequency of somatic embryos with two cotyledons was 22.6%.

The experiment was conducted to determine the seed characteristics and preferable methods to enhance the seed germination rate in Bupleurum falcatum. The optimum temperature for the seed germination of Bupleurum falcatum is 2$0^{\circ}C$. Any significant promoting effects were not found in seed germination with hormone treatments and physical methods. At 15$^{\circ}C$, prechilling combined with 50~200ppm of GA$_3$ treatment raised germination rate by 2 times of control ones. The most positive effect was observed in the treatment of 10$^{-2}$ ~10$^{-3}$ M potassium nitrate only at 15$^{\circ}C$ for 12 and 24 hours. The leachate of Bupleurum falcatum didn't inhibit the germination of Lactuca sativa, showing almost 100% of germination rate, which is suggested that no inhibitors contained in the seeds of Bupleurum falcatum. Observation of embryo conditions under stereoscopic microscope showed that the ratio of seeds with or without embryo is almost 50/50. The results suggested that the lower rate of germination in Bupleurum falcatum was caused by embryolessness of seeds.

Crude polysaccharide (WG-PL-CP) was fractionated from fermented ginseng with Phellinus linteus in solid culture to enhance the immunostimulation of ginseng. WG-PL-CP produce three active polysaccharide-rich fractions (WG-PL-CP-II, III, and IV) on DEAE-Sepharose CL-6B ($Cl^-$ form). WG-PL-CP-III displayed higher mitogenic activity (1.98-fold of the saline control at $100\;{\mu}g/mL$) than did WG-CP-III or PL-CP-III (1.60- or 1.65-fold, respectively), and potent intestinal immune system modulating activity through Peyer's patch was obtained by WG-PL-CP-IV only (1.56-fold). Meanwhile, WG-PL-CP-II and III significantly enhanced macrophage stimulating activity (2.01- and 1.94-fold) compared to WG-CP-II and III (1.73- and 1.66-fold) or PL-CP-II and III (1.79- and 1.72-fold). In addition, WG-PL-CP-III and IV mainly contained neutral sugar (73.5 and 67.3%) and uronic acid (23.2 and 24.6%). Component sugar analysis also showed that WG-PL-CP-III consisted mainly of uronic acid as well as the neutral sugars Glc, Ara, Gal, Rha and Xyl (molar ratio of 0.81:1.00:0.49:0.42:0.28:0.20), whereas WG-PL-CP-IV was mainly comprised of uronic acid, Ara, Rha, Gal, Xyl and Glc (1.00:0.75:0.69:0.63:0.42:0.34). Therefore, it is assumed that these active polysaccharides play an important role in enhancing the immunostimulation of fermented ginseng with P. linteus in solid culture.
