  • Modern artworks are constructed using a variety of materials and techniques. Sculptures, which predominantly consist of metals, usually have different shapes and consist of different material mixtures. The structural and material properties of these sculptures are often controlled by conservation treatment methods. However, the application of existing treatment methods is challenging at times, indicating that more diverse treatment materials and techniques are necessary. Therefore, in this study, a treatment method that employs volatile corrosion inhibitor(VCI) powder, rather than an anti-corrosion solution, for the conservation and management of metal artworks was used. VCI powder and VCI films containing VCI powder were used, and the results obtained confirmed that both of them showed anti-corrosion effect. Only a slight change in the chromaticity of metal samples was observed, and compared to the untreated samples, the application of the VCI powder resulted in a decrease in the rate of corrosion by half. Moreover, VCI film tests revealed that comparing to the untreated or polyethylene film-treated samples, VCI film treatment resulted in a decrease in the occurrence of corrosion compounds. The contact angle, surface energy, and surface electrical resistance were measured, and the evaluation of these surface properties established the anti-corrosion effect of VCI. Additionally, direct application of VCI and VCI films on actual sculptures further confirmed the anti-corrosion effect of VCI.

  • The objective of this study is to identify the species of 17 wooden Buddhist statues of the late Joseon Dynasty (the 17th and 18th century) in Jeollado, southwestern region of Korea. The bodies of statues were made of Ginkgo (Gingko biloba L.: 88%) and alder (Alnus spp.: 12%). The hands of statues were alder(64%), willow (Salix spp.: 27%) and Ginkgo(9%). The bottoms of hollow bodies were covered all with Japanese red-pine (Pinus densiflora S. et Z., 'sonamu') panels. The main species of statue body, Ginkgo tree was known to be introduced to Korea from China with Buddhism. The results indicated that Ginkgo trees of Korea in the 17th century had already become large and rich enough to be used for most of statues. Ginkgo wood has low shrinkage and even texture, which are crucial for carving sculptures. Alder and willow woods used for statue hands have fine and firm textures. The pedestals for these statues were also made of red pine wood. Red pine woods have rather high shrinkage and low hardness, but it is versatile woods strong enough to support heavy statues.

  • The ESBs (Environmental Specimen Banks) have monitoring functions for the contemporary environmental qualities and also offer the future generation tangible information on the past environment by preserving the specimens. This entails the sampling of the representative specimen for each distinctive ecosystem, which is performed under a strict and stipulated procedure and a condition that does not allow any change in the component so that a retrospective analysis can be readily done even in the distant future. It has been more than 30 years that some developing countries started collecting a broad spectrum of specimens to vindicate the effectiveness of an environmental policy and to monitor the long-term variations of background concentrations of environmental pollutants. Though being late, the National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER), Korea, has successfully launched the National Environmental Specimen Bank (NESB) in 2009 equipped with its state-of-the-art automated cryogenic tanks. Since then, the researchers at the NESB have been doing their best to excel the existing ESBs around the world by learning and improving the expertise. To do so, they conducted a pilot study for developing and testing their own Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) based on the analysis of the examples of the other ESBs. The problems from the pilot study had been reviewed to improve the SOP to meet the requirements for an ESB, that is to say, preserving representative environmental specimens in cryogenic condition and enhancing the analytical method. Furthermore, they also need to prepare themselves to address the future challenges by providing some additional functions, which makes it distinguishable from the other ESBs. If successful, this will be a step further to be recognized as a full-fledged member of the ESB society of the world.

  • Two major issues of the blood bank management are quality assurance and inventory control. Recently, in Korea blood donation has gained popularity increasingly to allow considerable improvement of the quality assurance with respect to blood collection, transportation, storage, component preparation skills and hematological tests. Nevertheless the inventory control, the other issue of blood bank management, has been neglected so far. For the supply of blood by donation barely meets the demand, the blood bank policy on the inventory control has been 'the more the better.' The shortage itself by no means unnecessitate inventory control. In fact, in spite of shortage, no small amount of blood is outdated. The efficient blood inventory control makes it possible to economize the blood usage in the practice of state-of-the-art medical care. For the efficient blood inventory control in Korean hospitals, this tudy is to develop formulae forecasting the standard blood inventory level and suggest a set of policies improving the blood inventory control. For this study informations of $A^+$ whole bloods and packed cells inventory control were collected from a University Hospital and the Central Blood Bank of the Korean Red Cross. Using this informations, 1,461 daily blood inventory records were formulated.48 varieties of blood inventory control environment were identified on the basis of selected combinations of 4 inventory control variables-crossmatch, transfusion, inhospital donation and age of bloods from external supply. In order to decide the optimal blood inventory level for each environment, simulation models were designed to calculate the measures of performance of each environment. After the decision of 48 optimal blood inventory levels, stepwise multiple regression analysis was started where the independent variables were 4 inventory control variables and the dependent variable was optimal inventory level of each environment. Finally the standard blood inventory level decision rule was developed using the backward elimination procedure to select the best regression equation. And the effective alternatives of the issuing policy and crossmatch release period were suggested according to the measures of performance under the condition of the standard blood inventory level. The results of this study' were as follows ; 1. The formulae to calculate the standard blood inventory level($S^*$)was $S^*=2.8617X(d)^{0.9342}$ where d is the mean daily crossmatch(demand) for a blood type. 2. The measures of performace - outdate rate, average period of storage, mean age of transfused bloods, and mean daily available inventory level - were improved after maintenance of the standard inventory level in comparison with the present system. 3. Issuing policy of First In-First Out(FIFO) decreased the outdate rate, while Last In-First Out(LIFO) decreased the mean age of transfused bloods. The decrease of the crossmatch release period reduced the outdate rate and the mean age of transfused bloods.

  • Joyangru, which is located in Woodo mountain in Chuncheon, Korea, was a gate tower of Monsogak. There are little historical records about Joyangru except of the 20th-century records. To study about Joyangru history, a dendrochronological analysis was conducted. We identified also the species of woods, We took 87 samples of wood elements for the species analysis and 13 samples for the dendrochronological analysis. We found 78 hard pines(Diploxylon), 4 Douglass-fir, 3 exotic hard pines(Pinus ponderosa type) and 1 Shorea sp.(Dipterocarpaceae). In the dendrochronological analysis, 2 floor flames were dated in 1887 (with complete sapwood) and 2 beams in 1884. We concluded that Joyangru was reconstructed just after 1888, most likely in 1890 together with Monsogak.

  • Epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)는 HER family에 속하는 tyrosine kinase receptor로서 다양한 하류경로로 신호를 전달하여 세포 증식, 혈관 형성, 세포 사멸을 억제하는 역할을 한다. EGFR이 폐암의 형성에 중요한 역할을 하고 많은 상피세포 종양에서 비정상적으로 활성화됨에 따라 암 치료에 중요한 역할을 하고 있어 EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI)에 관한 많은 연구가 이루어졌다. 위와 같은 약 개발에 있어서 현재 가상 시뮬레이션을 통한 약 후보물질 개발이 진행되고 있다. 특히, Molecular docking 시뮬레이션은 기존의 실험적인 기술(X-ray crystallography, NMR)로는 연구하기가 어려웠던 protein과 ligand간의 상호작용을 예측하여 이에 대한 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 하지만, 우선적으로 Molecular docking 시뮬레이션은 정확한 validation을 기반으로 진행되어야 신뢰할 수 있는 정보를 얻을 수 있다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 EDISON에서 제공하는 Dock 프로그램과 일반적으로 잘 알려진 Glide, Autodock 프로그램으로 protein data bank(PDB)에서 제공하는 EGFR wild type cocrystal을 redocking하는 방식을 통하여 최상위 rank pose의 RMSD 값을 통한 validation 성능을 비교함으로써 어떤 프로그램이 EGFR과 ligand 간의 결합예측을 하는데 있어서 보다 더 정확한 결과를 낼 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였고 시뮬레이션 결과 Autodock에서 가장 우수한 결과 값을 보여주었다.
