The foundation of the development in modern typography is based on the era of International Typographical Style and Modern Typography that valued morphological functionality and rationality to achieve an accurate conveyance of meaning. However, with the advance of postmodernism, the view that the aesthetic and conceptual aspect must be included in its interpretation rather than its rational functionality was prominent. Indeed, the works of Dan Friedman and April Greiman, two graphic designers that are known to be the most representative of the post-modernistic era, displayed that graphic design works can also serve as a method for a more free artistic expression, unlike works of Modern Typography. This move towards aesthetic graphics was first started by Wolfgang Weingart. His various attempts at expanding the concept of typography had a significant impact on the development of New Wave and his experimentalist attitude brought about a ground-breaking change to the functional design and formative expression of modern typography. However, this thesis will consider the theoretical background of the typographical designs displayed in Wiengart's works and the experimental methods thereof, and will not attempt to evaluate Weingart's pioneering role and achievements. Furthermore, this thesis will shed new light on the argument that the Weingart's works are not based on the authorship view of post-modernistic typography and are rather utilized to expand the concept of typography based on a syntactical approach.

Physical and sensory characteristics of commercial yogurts are important aspects for consumer acceptability. In addition, beneficial functions of commercial yogurts are also emphasized for the probiotic dairy products. The aim of this study was to investigate the functional properties of yogurts with the combination of bacteriocin-producing Pediococcus acidilactici. Yogurts fermented with commercial starter culture (control yogurt) and control yogurt together with P. acidilactici HW01 (yogurt+HW01), P. acidilactici JM01 (yogurt+JM01), or P. acidilactici K10 (yogurt+K10) were prepared. During 28 days after fermentation, the viability of lactic acid bacteria, pH, and brix, in the yogurt samples were assessed with standard methods. Moreover, to investigate the antilisterial activity of the yogurt samples, Listeria monocytogenes was simultaneously inoculated when the yogurts were prepared with lactic acid bacteria, and the viability of L. monocytogenes was determined. Although yogurt+K10 did not completely remove L. monocytogenes, control yogurt, yogurt+HW01, and yogurt+JM01 eradicated L. monocytogenes at day 2 after fermentation. However, yogurt+K10 also removed L. monocytogenes at day 3 after fermentation. Taken together, these findings suggest that the combination of yogurt with P. acidilactici does not affect its quality and they may consequently aid in the development of new probiotic yogurt.

LS-RUG-com preparation in a complex extract from mixture of three natural plants. Rubus crataegifolius/unriped, Gardenia jasminoides and Ulmus marcrocarpa that have been widely used in traditional functional health food. This study was conducted to establish the HPLC analysis methods that can be used to establish quantitative analysis of R. crataegifolius, G. jasminoides and U. macrocarpa for standardization of LS-RUG-com preparations. HPLC analysis methods for simultaneous determination of ellagic acid and geniposide and single determination of catechin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside were established for the quality control of natural plants complex (LS-RUG-com). Validation of HPLC analysis were performed by checking specificity, accuracy, precision, limit of detection and quantitation, and linearity following ICH (International Council for Harmonisation) guideline. As the result of quantitative analysis, the contents of ellagic acid, geniposide and catechin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside in each plant extracts were 11.2 mg/g (ellagic acid) and 72 mg/g (geniposide) and 10.2 mg/g (catechin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside). The contents of ellagic acid, geniposide and catechin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside in LS-RUG-com were 4.62~6.82 mg/g (ellagic acid), 19.2~28.8 mg/g (geniposide) and 1.36~2.04 mg/g (catechin-7-O-β-D-apiofuranoside) respectively.

Polyoxometalates (POMs) have outstanding properties and a great deal of potential for electrochemical applications. As POMs are highly soluble, the implementation of POMs in various functional materials is required to fully use their potential in electrochemical devices. Here, we will review the recently developed immobilization methods to incorporate POMs into conductive nanomaterials, such as nanocarbons and conducting polymers. Various immobilization strategies involve POMs entrapped in conducting polymer matrix and integration of POMs into nanocarbons using a Langmuir-Blodgett technique, a layer-by-layer self-assembly, and an electrochemical in-situ polymerization. In addition, we will review a variety of electrochemical applications including electrocatalysts for water oxidation, lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, and electrochemical biosensors.

기능성 나노소자를 구현할 수 있는 나노 소재로 0차원 구조의 양자점(quantum dot)과 1차원 구조의 양자선 및 나노선(nanorod)이 제안되고 있다. 나노선의 경우 나노스케일의 dimension, 앙자 제한 효과, 탁월한 결정성, self-assembly, internal stress등 기존의 벌크형 소재에서 발견할 수 없는 새로운 기능성이 나타나고 있어서 바이오, 에너지, 구조, 전자, 센서 등의 분야에서 활용되고 있다. 현재 국내외적으로 널리 연구되고 있는 나노선으로는 Si 및 Ge, $SnO_2$, SiC, ZnO 등이 있으며 특히, ZnO는 우수한 물리적 전기적 특성과 함께 나노선으로의 합성이 비교적 쉬워 주목받고 있는 재료이다. ZnO의 합성방법으로는 thermal CVD, MOCVD, PLD, wet-chemistry 등 다양한 방법이 사용되고 있다. 특히 MOCVD 법은 수직 정렬된 ZnO 나노막대를 합성하기가 매우 용이하다. 본 실험에서는 자체개발된 MOCVD 장비를 이용한 일차원 ZnO 나노선을 성장하였다. 이러한 ZnO 나노선의 성장은 사파이어 기판과 실리콘 기판 위에서 이루어졌으며 기판의 종류와 격자상수 불일도에 따른 상이한 성장과정을 온도에 따른 나노선 성장에서 관찰할 수 있었다. 사파이어 기판의 경우, 240도의 온도에서는 박막형상을 지닌 ZnO가 온도가 320도 이상으로 상승하면서 나노선으로 변함을 보였고, 실리콘 기판의 경우 380도 이상에서 기울기률 가진 나노선을 관찰하였으며, 420도에서는 나노선을 관찰 할 수 없었다. 또한 PL 장비를 이용한 PL 강도와 성장과정을 연관하여 생각하였을 때, 나노선의 기물기가 PL 강도비과 연관성을 가진다는 것을 측정을 통해 확인하였다.

Transposable elements (TEs) occupy approximately 45% of the human genome and can enter functional genes randomly. During evolutionary radiation, multiple copies of TEs are produced by duplication events. Those elements contribute to biodiversity and phylogenomics. Most of them are controlled by epigenetic regulation, such as methylation or acetylation. Every species contains their own specific mobile elements, and they are divided into DNA transposons and retrotransposons. Retrotransposons can be divided by the presence of a long terminal repeat (LTR). They show various biological functions, such as promoter, enhancer, exonization, rearrangement, and alternative splicing. Also, they are strongly implicated to genomic instability, causing various diseases. Therefore, they could be used as biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of diseases such as cancers. Recently, it was found that TEs could produce miRNAs, which play roles in gene inhibition through mRNA cleavage or translational repression, binding seed regions of target genes. Studies of TE-derived miRNAs offer a potential for the expression of functional genes. Comparative analyses of different types of miRNAs in various species and tissues could be of interest in the fields of evolution and phylogeny. Those events allow us to understand the importance of TEs in relation to biological roles and various diseases.

기존의 질병 관련 연구들은 대부분 유의미하게 변화되는 유전자들을 찾아내고(Differentially Expressed Genes, DEGs), 이들이 연관된 생물학적 패스웨이(biological pathway)를 찾아내는 방향으로 이루어졌다. 더불어 miRNA(microRNA)가 많은 mRNA 의 발현을 조절하며, 실제 면역, 대사 및 세포 사멸을 포함한 여러 필수 생리학적 및 질병에 매우 중요한 역할을 한다고 밝혀지며, 바이오 마커로써의 miRNA 를 찾아내고자 하는 연구가 활발히 진행되기 시작하였다. 하지만 mRNA 나 miRNA 의 독립적인 연구만으로는 명확한 질병과의 연관성이나 기능을 이해하기에는 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 질병 상태에서 유의미하게 변화되는 miRNA 와 이러한 miRNA 에 의해 조절되는 mRNA 를 함께 고려하여 분석함으로써, 실제 질병의 발병 원인이 되는 생물학적 패스웨이나 메커니즘을 밝히고자 하였다. 또한, miRNA 와 mRNA 의 연관성을 찾기 위해, PPI(protein-protein interaction) 네트워크에 기반을 둔 RWR(Random Walk with Restart Algorithm)를 적용하여, 직접적 연관성뿐 아니라, 유전자 간의 숨겨진 간접적인 패스웨이를 고려하여 분석하기 위한 웹 기반 시스템을 개발하였다. 이 시스템은 mRNA-miRNA 를 함께 고려한 통합 분석을 통해 숨겨진 질병의 메커니즘을 이해하고 치료 방법을 찾아내는 데 크게 공헌할 것이다.
