  • A barley virus disease has been severe in central Korea since 1963. To investigate the causal virus, examination of host ranges, transmission by insect vectors and · electron microscopy were conducted. In electron microscopy, particles identical with northern cereal mosaic virus were observed. The size of baciliform particles ranged from 300nm to 370nm in length and 57-60nm in diameter. The virus was transmitted by the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen). The latent period in the vector was seven to nineteen days, with 10 days the most prevalent. Barley, corn, wheat, rye, and oats were susceptible to the virus when inoculated by the insect vectors. It was concluded that the disease agent of the barley disease in Korea is northern cereal mosaic virus. This is the first known report of this disease in Korea.

  • Effect of volcanic ash on cell growth of Aspergillus sp. and production of exopolymers by Agrobacterium sp. and Aureobasidium pullualns was investigated. The volcanic ash contained various mineral salts such as $SiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, CaO, $K_2O$. Maximal cell growth of Aspergillus sp. was obtained when 0.3% volcanic ash was added to medium. Cell growth of Aspergillus sp. increased with higher concentration of volcanic ash in medium. Amount of cell growth with 0.3 % volcanic ash was 6.7 times higher than that without volcanic ash. Volcanic ash also stimulated production of exopolymer as well as cell growth. Production of curdlan with 0.1% volcanic ash was 12.40 g/l whereas that without volcanic ash was 9.15 g/l. Production of pullulan with volcanic ash was also higher than that without volcanic ash.

  • Pulmonary mucormycosis is an uncommon opportunistic fungal infection associated with diabetis mellitus, leukemia, lymphoma & other debilitating diseases. Their clinical presentations depend on the associated underlying disorders. Generally patients with leukemia and lymphoma often have rapidly progressive clinical course, and may cause diffuse parenchymal disease refractory to medical and surgical therapies. However, some diabetics with pulmonary mucormycosis have a striking tendency to develop a localized endobronchial disease in major airway which is amenable to therapy with surgery and Amphotericin B. We have experienced a case of endobronchial mucormycosis complicating lung abscess associated with diabetic ketoacidosis, which was cured without specific antifungal therapy or surgery. A brief review of the literature was given.

  • The objective of this study is to investigate the skin whitening and antioxidant effects of the Anemarrhenae Rhizoma extract (ARE). Following the previously studied method, we examined the inhibitory effects of melanin synthesis and tyrosinase activity by using B16F10 cells. First, we measured the Diphenylpicrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, nitrite scavenging activity, and superoxide dismutase-like activity to verifying antioxidant efficacy according to skin whitening. In addition, we confirmed the skin whitening efficacy of ARE by measuring gene expression associated with a skin whitening by the Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method in B16F10 cells. In this study, we confirmed that ARE has skin whitening and antioxidant effects at high concentrations. In particular, ARE at a concentration of 500 ㎍/ml inhibited the expression of Tyrosinase, TRP-2 (tyrosinase-related protein), and MITF (microphthalmia transcription factor) genes better than Arbutin. In conclusion, our results confirmed that ARE has the potential for development as a skin whitening efficacy substance.

  • Objectives : We want to know the effect of Gyejakjimo-tang in mice model of acute pain.Methods : We investigated writhing reflex in mice with acetic acid-induced abdominal pain using mice, we observed c-Fos protien expression by immunohistochemistry dyeing method in the paraventricular nucleus(PVN) and supraoptic nucleus(SON) of the hypothalamus.Results : All of Gyejakjimo-tang treated group suppressed acetic acid-induced writhing response as acetic acid injuction group, but in 100㎎/㎏ Gyejakjimo-tang treated group and 200㎎/㎏ Gyejakjimo-tang treated groups represernted significance. All of Gyejakjimo-tang treated groups(50, 100 and 200㎎/㎏ Gyejakjimo-tang-treated group), Fos-positive cells in PNV significantly decreased as acetic acid injuction group, and All of Gyejakjimo-tang-treated groups Fos-positive cells in SON significantly decreased as acetic acid injuction group.Conclusions : The present results showed that the mice pre-treated with the aqueous extract of Gyejakjimo-tang showed analgesic effect on acetic acid-induced abdominal pain.

  • An oriental medicinal database was used from medicinal plants for screening of anticancer agents. The prescription frequency and dosage of medicinal plats in 170 anticancer prescriptions were analyzed. From the total prescription score of each medical plant, it was found that high-scored medicinal plants have been widely studied in the previous research on the cancer treatment. Consequently, dangui, hwangui, banha, bachul, jinpy, insam, bacjakyak, deahwang, chungoong, jimo, chunnamsung, omija, hyunggae, huekchook, banggi, boclyung, osooyou were selected as raw materials for the screening of anticancer agents.

  • Various medicinal plants were examined as resources for antidiabetic biomaterials, using an oriental medicinal database. The prescription frequency and dosage of medicinal plants in 131 antidiabetic prescriptions were analyzed. Total prescription score of each medical plant was summed up from prescription table and score table. High-scored medicinal plants have been widely studied in the previous research on the diabetic treatment. Consequently, dangui, hwangryun, maekmoondong, ginseng, chick, saengjihwang, omija, bokryung, Jimo and cheonhwaboon were assumed to have high antidiabetic activities.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore the health care decision making of Ethiopian women at household level. Moreover it is to understand the factors that influence to potential customers in healthcare industry from the social quality level perspective. Methods: We used Ethiopia Demographic Health Survey (EDHS) 2005 & 2016, which provided data about currently married women aged 15-49 years (N=2003, N=2017, respectively). We performed a chi-square test, and a Pearson correlation and a logistic regression. Andersen model is considered as well. Results: This study revealed that the mobility decision making has an association with health care decision making of women. Furthermore, there is a moderate effect of an economic decision making of women. Lastly, the women's decision making empowerment level increase year by year. Conclusion: Health care industry has to consider potential costumers among women like in Ethiopia, whose decision making empowerment will enhance on their own healthcare in future. It is very important to figure out factors from the social quality management domain. It helps finding a new market from downstream approach. From this point, the impact of decision making of women empowerment has a significant implication from the holistic perspective.

  • The importance of data in the development of deep learning is very high. Data with high morphological features are usually utilized in the domains where careful lens calibrations are needed by a human to capture those data. Synthesis of high morphological data for that domain can be a great asset to improve the classification accuracy of systems in the field. Unsupervised learning can be employed for this task. Generating photo-realistic objects of interest has been massively studied after Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) was introduced. In this paper, we propose Morpho-GAN, a method that unifies several GAN techniques to generate quality data of high morphology. Our method introduces a new suitable training objective in the discriminator of GAN to synthesize images that follow the distribution of the original dataset. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can generate plausible data as good as other modern baseline models while taking a less complex during training.
