Molecular recognition technology has attracted considerable attention for improving the selectivity of a specific molecule by imprinting it on a polymer matrix. In this study, adsorption and release characteristics of chitosan based drug delivery films imprinted with sulindac (SLD) were investigated in terms of the plasticizer, temperature and pH and the results were also interpreted by the related mathematical models. The adsorption characteristics of target molecules on SLD-imprinted polymer films were better explained by the Freundlich and Sips equation than that of the Langmuir equation. The binding site energy distribution function was also useful for understanding the adsorption relationship between target molecules and polymer films. The drug release of SLD-imprinted polymer films followed the Fickian diffusion mechanism, whereas the drug release using artificial skin followed the non-Fickian diffusion behavior.

This study is to evaluate the accuracy of a human papillomavirus(HVP) vaccination behavior model based on the health belief model. The subjects were 285 mothers of adolescent daughters and the data was collected from June to September, 2017. The data were analyzed using SPSS, AMOS programs. The results, perceived benefits had effects on the vaccinating behavior by completely mediating the intention while the perceived barriers had effects on the vaccinating behavior by partially mediating the intention. The vaccination intention was shown to be an important variable for predicting of vaccination behaviors while the perceived barrier was revealed to be the most influential factor for vaccination behaviors. These results could contribute to raise the understanding about HVP vaccination processes in the mothers of adolescent daughters and to develop strategies to enhance the HVP vaccination rate.

Current studies have been reported that fruits such as berries may contain both antioxidant and antitumor polyphenols that may be important in this regard. We investigated the immunostimulatory effect of fermented blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum L.) on cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression in animal model. Rats were administered blueberry yeast fermented powder (BYFP) at doses 30, 100, and 300 mg/kg for 4 weeks after cyclophosphamide (Cy) treatment, respectively. The immunomodulatory effect of BYFP were measured both in vitro and in vivo, and the changes of blood components were also analyzed. We found that BYFP recovered immunosuppression-mediated decreased liver, spleen, and thymus weights as well as up regulation of white blood cell, lymphocyte, and neutrophil in blood. Moreover, BYFP up-regulated IL-2, TNF-${\alpha}$, and IFN-${\gamma}$ pro-inflammatory cytokine production compared to immune suppressed control group, respectively. According to histological studies, BYFP regenerated significantly on Cy-mediated injured spleen at the high doses (BYFP 300) comparison with Cy-treated groups (immunosuppression). Collectively, these findings suggest that BYFP may have the potential as a dietary immunostimulatory agent.

Microservice architecture focuses on dividing it into small and lightweight services to build for the purpose of performing very close business functions. So it tends to concentrate only on agility, productivity, reliability, and ease of deployment of software development. Microservice architecture considers database as just a file or storage for storing and extracting data, emphasizing that data quality can be sacrificed for convenience and scalability of software development. Database reverse engineering for understanding database structure and data semantics is needed for data utilization for business decision making. However, it is difficult that reverse database engineering is applied in microservice architecture that neglects data quality. This study proposes database reverse engineering method that utilizes master data to restore the conceptual data model as a solution. The proposed method is applied to the return service database implemented by microservice architecture and verified its applicability.

Although there is a growing body of research on organizational commitment profiles based on a person-centered approach, it is not widely applied to the commitment research conducted by Korean organizational scholars yet. Therefore, in this paper, we introduced the concept and analytical methods, such as cluster analysis and latent profile analysis (LPA), of the person-centered approach. In addition, we also performed both cluster analysis and LPA to identify types of organizational commitment profiles of Korean employees based on the combination of affective, continuance and normative commitment on the sample from a range of different fields in South Korea (n = 349). Both analyses extracted two comparable sets of 6 commitment profiles. These six profiles were then contrasted with employee turnover intention. Finally, implications for commitment theory, practices and future research issues were discussed.

자연하천에서 수자원의 원활하고 안전한 관리에 있어서 오염물의 혼합 거동에 대한 이해는 매우 중요하다. 대부분의 자연하천의 경우 만곡부 및 합류부와 같은 복잡한 지형을 갖고 있으며 이러한 경우 하천의 흐름이 복잡한 형태를 갖게 된다. 특히 수생태계에 많은 영향을 미치는 하폐수 처리장 처리수는 대부분 1차적으로 지류로 방류되어 이후 본류로 지속적으로 유입되게 된다. 이러한 오염물질이 지류로부터 본류로 혼합되는 합류부 구간의 경우 일반적인 1차원 혼합이 아닌 횡방향을 포함하는 2차원적인 혼합 거동에 대한 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 금호강과 진천천이 좌안으로부터 오염물질이 지속적으로 유입되는 낙동강 중류구간 합류부에서의 혼합 구간의 연구를 위하여 횡분산계수 산정을 위하여 전기전도도(electrical conductivity: EC)를 이용한 농도 추적 실험을 수행하였다. 낙동강 본류에서 정해진 측선을 따라 센서가 설치된 보트를 이용하여 실시간으로 농도, 수리량 데이터를 GPS 위치 데이터와 함께 취득하였다. 또한 실험으로부터 취득한 자료를 바탕으로 2차원 이송-확산 혼합 거동 모델인 CTM-2D 수치모형을 이용하여 모의하였다. 실험 수행 결과, 지류인 금호강과 진천천의 EC 농도가 합류 전 낙동강 본류의 EC 기저농도 보다 더 높은 값을 나타내었다. 지류의 유입으로 인하여 본류 좌안 쪽에서 전기전도도의 값의 상승을 확인할 수 있었으며 하류로 이동할수록 불균등했던 전기전도도의 분포가 횡방향 혼합을 통하여 점점 균등한 분포로 전환되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 2차원 혼합 거동 분석에 필요한 횡 분산계수 산정을 위해 모멘트법, 해석해를 이용한 추적법, 수치모형을 통한 역산법을 통해 산정하여 결과를 비교하였다. 그 결과 모멘트법의 경우 다른 방법들에 비하여 전반적으로 과소 산정하는 경향을 나타내었다.

Process-based model (PBM), based on the interactions between endogenous physiological processes and many environmental factors, can be a powerful tool for estimating crop growth and productivity. Carbon acquisition and biomass accumulation are the main components in PBM, so it has become important to understand and integrate gas exchange process in crop model. This study aimed to assess the applicability of FvCB model (a leaf model of C3 photosynthesis proposed by Farquhar, von C aemmerer, and Berry (1980)) in onion (Allium cepa L.). For parameterization, two early-maturing onion cultivars, 'Singsingball' and 'Thunderball', grown in a temperature gradient plastic film house, were used in measuring leaf net CO2 assimilation rate (A), and then, parameter estimation was carried out for four parameters including Vcmax (maximum rate of carboxylation), Jmax (maximum rate of electron transport), TPU (rate of triose phosphate utilization), and Rd (Dark respiration rate). The gas-exchange model calibrated in this research is expected to be able to explain the photosynthetic responses of onion under various environmental conditions (R2=0.95***).
