의료 영상 처리 기술은 질병의 진단 및 치료를 위한 계획이나 방법을 결정하는데 있어 매우 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며 의료 영상 시스템과 같은 활용 분야에서는 질병이 있는 환자의 자동 진단을 위한 연구도 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 여기서는 뇌 MR영상에서의 질병을 자동 진단할 수 있는 방법에 관한 연구를 한다. 뇌 MR영상에서의 질병 진단을 위한 단계로서 필수적으로 이루어져야 하는 단계가 비정상 영역의 추출 단계이다. 이 논문에서는 뇌의 질병 진단에 사용할 수 있는 자료를 제공하기 위한 전처리 단계로서 질병이 있는 환자의 뇌 영상에서 비정상적인 영역 추출 방법을 제안한다. 일반적으로 비정상적인 영역의 명암간 분포는 회백질 영역의 분포와 유사하나 두께 차이로서 구분이 가능하다. 여기서는 이 정보를 활용하여 정상인의 뇌영상에 대해서 회백질의 평균 두께 분포를 구하여 테스트로 입력되어지는 영상에서 회백질의 평균 두께 이상의 영역만을 남김으로서 질병이 있는 환자의 뇌 영상에서 비정상적인 영역을 추출할 수 있음을 보인다. 또한 추출되어진 비정상 영역에 대해서 진단에 필요한 인자를 자동으로 측정하였고 뇌경색, 뇌종양 환자를 포함한 63명의 뇌 MR 영상 시리즈에 대해서 실험하여 비교적 정확한 추출결과를 유도할 수 있었음을 확인하였다.

만화 제작에 있어 시나리오 뿐 만 아니라 등장 인물(캐릭터)의 개발이 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있으므로 새로운 캐릭터 창작을 쉽게 개발하기 위한 방법의 일환으로 기존 인물 영상의 특징을 초대한 고려한 윤곽선을 추출하여 이를 캐릭터 개발에 활용할 수 도 있을 것이다. 이런 목적으로 지금까지 영상의 윤곽선 추출방법들이 많이 제안되었으나 대부분은 그레이 레벨 영상을 이진 영상으로 변환한 후 윤곽선을 추출하는 과정에서 정보의 손실이 발생할 수도 있으며 불필요한 잡영이 추가될 수 있었다. 본 논문은 이런 단점을 보완하기 위해 그레이 레벨 영상에서 직접 윤곽선을 추출하려는 시도로서, 전처리 과정에서는 local averaging으로 잡영을 줄인 후 Prewitt 연산자를 이용하여 에지를 검출하고, 윤곽선 추출에 적합하도록 기존의 지형적 특징 할당 방법을 수정하여 적용한 중간 결과에 대해 직선화 과정으로 잡음들을 제거하여 최종 윤곽선을 구한다.

For the purpose of developing natural antioxidant, the antioxidative activity of phenolics isolated from Korean Mulberry(Morus) fruits was determined. Optimum extracting condition for phenolics were 60$\%$(v/v) ethanol. The content of rutin and isoquercetrin as flavonoids were 82.83 mg/100 g and 43.23 mg/100 g respectively. The 2,2'-azinobis-3-ethyl benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical decolorization and antioxidant protection factor (PF) were determined with extracts from Mulberry fruits. Results showed 98$\%$ inhibition on ABTs by 80$\%$ ethanol extract and 1.25 PF on antioxidant protection factor by 60$\%$ ethanol extract. Electron donation ability on DPPH was higher 60$\%$ ethanol extract than other ethanol extracts. Also, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of extracts was higher 60$\%$ ethanol extract than other extracts.

The biological activity of hot water extract from Ecklonia cava Kjellman (ECE) was investigated to assess antioxidative, anti-skin aging, and nitrite scavenging abilities, as well as alcohol metabolizing activities. Antioxidant activity of ECE was measured by using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity. DPPH radical scavenging activity and SOD-like activity of ECE increased in a remarkably dose-dependent manner, and were about 91.4% and 75% at 1 mg/ml, respectively. The xanthine oxidase inhibitory activity was indicated to be about 70% at 1 mg/ml of ECE. Nitrite scavenging ability of ECE showed to be 93.6% at 1 mg/ml and pH 1.2. The influence of ECE on alcohol metabolism was demonstrated through the generating activity of reduced-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH). The facilitating rate of ADH and ALDH activity by ECE was 167.2% and 334% at 10 mg/ml, respectively. In addition, tyrosinase and elastase inhibitory activities of ECE were 58% and 72% at 10 mg/ml, respectively. These results indicated that ECE has valuable biological attributes owing to its antioxidant, nitrite scavenging, alcohol metabolizing, and elastase and tyrosinase inhibitory activities.

The antioxidative and antimicrobial properties of the solvent extracts of 3 parts (leaf, stem, root) of Crotalaria sessiflora L. were investigated, in order to find out new natural food additives. The antioxidative activities of the extracts were determined by peroxide value (POV) and the conjugated diene value (CDV) of corn oil stored for 30 days at $60\pm2^{\circ}C$. Each part of the extracts were added as $0.02,\;0.05\%$ and then compared with BHT. The anti oxidative activities were as follows in decreasing order: BHT > LeafEX > StemEX > RootEX > control. The induction period showed that the part of the Crotalaria sessifloria L. group added with solvent extract showed a longer induction period compared with the control group. The part of Crotalaria sessiflora L. solvent extract were shown to have antimicrobial effects on the microorganism such as Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella Enteritidis, Pseudomonas flrourescens and Escherichia coli. Especially the effect on the Pseudomonas flrourescens was remarkable.

We investigated the antioxidative effects of solvent extracts of doenjang fermented using Bacillus subtilis DJI (DJI doenjang) in vitro. The solvents used for extraction were ethanol, n-hexane, and water. The antioxidative activities of DJI doenjang solvent extracts were measured by estimation of peroxide value, the presence of linoleic acid level, and nitrite scavenging activity, the Rancimat test, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) free-radical generation, in comparison with the commercial antioxidant butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT). The peroxide value of an ethanol extract was lower than those obtained using n-hexane and water extracts. Furthermore, the peroxide value of the ethanol extract was similar to that obtained after BHT treatment. The nitrite scavenging activity was 23.36% after addition of 600 ppm DJI doenjang ethanol extract, and the DPPH free-radical scavenging activity was 19.06% under same condition, which shows that DJI doenjang ethanol extract exhibited lower antioxidative capacities than did BHT. In the Rancimat test, the ethanol extract (11.20 min induction time), n-hexane extract (7.58 min induction time), and water extract (8.26 min induction time) after treatment with 600 ppm DJI doenjang extracts demonstrated longer induction periods than did BHT (6.94 min). These results indicate that DJI doenjang has potential anti-oxidative activity.

${\alpha}-Amylase$ inhibitor is used to control blood glucose level by inhibiting starch digestion in the small intestine and delaying the absorption of glucose. In this study, we investigated the effect of the ethanol extracts from more than 1400 species of plants against ${\alpha}-amylase$ with the aim of developing a new ${\alpha}-amylase$ inhibitor. In the results, Cornus walteri extracts showed the highest inhibition activity. The inhibitory effect of Cornus walteri extract on the carbohydrate hydrolysis enzymes has different sensitivities against ${\alpha}-amylase$ from salivary and pancreatin and against ${\alpha}-glucosidase$ from yeast and porcine small intestine. In the study of inhibition kinetics of ${\alpha}-amylase$ and ${\alpha}-glucosidase$, Cornus walteri extract showed competitive inhibition against salivary and pancreatin while showing the combination of uncompetitive and noncompetitive inhibition against ${\alpha}-glucosidase$. The Cornus walteri extract was stable at acidic and thermal conditions. As for the blood glucose and body weight levels of Cornus walteri extract, we confirmed anti-hyperglycemic and anti-obesity effects. Also, in the investigation of the mRNA lever, Cornus walteri extract upregulated the level of GLUT4 mRNA in the quadriceps muscle.

Acetic acid is the most abundant and serious ethanol fermentation inhibitor in dilute-acid hemicellulosic hydrolysates. A mixture of xylose, acetic acid and sulfuric acid was chosen as a simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate so as to find an optimal separation system to selectively remove acetic acid from the hydrolysates. In order to attain the purpose, emulsion liquid membrane was applied to removal of acetic acid from the simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate. The effects of main constituents of water-in-oil (W/O) emulsion, such as amine extractant type, surfactant composition, additive type, and type and concentration of stripping agent, on extraction of acetic acid, xylose, and sulfuric acid in the simulated hemicellulosic hydrolysate were investigated. Under specific experimental conditions, degree of extraction of acetic acid was higher than 95% while loss of xylose was insignificant, which means that the current emulsion liquid membrane can be an economically feasible process.
