Chitosan microspheres were prepared by ionic gelation process with sodium sulfate for nasal vaccine delivery. Bordetella Bronchiseptica Dermonecrotoxin (BBD) as a major virulence factor of a causative agent of atrophic rhinitis (AR) was loaded to the chitosan microspheres for vaccination. Morphology of BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres was observed as spherical shapes. The average particle sizes of the BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres were about $2.69$\mid${\;}\mu\textrm{m}$. More BBD was released with an increase of molecular weight of chitosan and with an increase of medium pH in vitro due to weaker intermolecular interaction between chitosan and BBD. Tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}{\;}(TNF{\alpha})$ and nitric oxide (NO) from RAW264.7 cells stimulated with BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres were gradually secreted, suggesting that released BBD from chitosan microspheres had immune stimulating activity of AR vaccine.

본 연구에서는 Box-Behnken 설계모델(BBD-RSM)을 사용하여 회화나무꽃 추출물을 첨가한 cosmeceuticals 유화액의 안정성 조건을 최적화하였다. BBD-RSM의 독립변수로는 유화제의 첨가량, 회화나무꽃 추출물 첨가량, 유화시간, 유화속도 등을 설정하고, 반응치로는 O/W 유화액의 평균액적크기(MDS), 점도 및 유화안정도지수(ESI)를 설정하였다. BBD-RSM 최적화 분석결과 세 가지 반응치를 동시에 부합하는 최적조건은 유화시간(17.8 min), 유화속도(5505 rpm), 유화제의 첨가량(2.28 wt.%), 회화나무꽃 추출물 첨가량(1.05 wt.%)으로 산출되었으며, 이 조건에서의 BBD-RSM 예측결과는 MDS (1875.5 nm), 점도(1789.7 cP), ESI (93.8%)로 얻었다. 또한 이 조건에서 실제 실험을 통해 얻은 결과는 이론 결과에 비래 평균오차율은 5% 이하로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서 BBD-RSM 최적화 분석을 적용할 경우 비교적 높은 유의수준의 만족하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The immune-stimulating activities of Bordetella bronchiseptica antigens containing dermonecrotoxin (BBD) loaded in chitosan microspheres (CMs) have already been reported in vitro and in vivo with a mouse alveolar macrophage cell line (RAW264.7) and mice. Therefore, this study attempted to demonstrate the successful induction of mucosal immune responses after the intranasal administration of BBD loaded in CMs (BBD-CMs) in colostrum-deprived pigs. The BBD was introduced to the CMs using an ionic gelation process involving tripolyphosphate (TPP). Colostrum-deprived pigs were then directly immunized through intranasal administration of the BBD-CMs. A challenge with a field isolate of B. bronchiseptica was performed ten days following the final immunization. The BBD-specific IgG and IgA titers, evident in the nasal wash and serum from the vaccinated pigs, increased with time (p<0.05). Following the challenge, the clinical signs of infection were about 6-fold lower in the vaccinated pigs compared with the nonvaccinated pigs. The grades for gross morphological changes in the turbinate bones from the vaccinated pigs were also significantly lower than the grades recorded for the nonvaccinated pigs (p<0.001). Therefore, the mucosal and systemic immune responses induced in the current study would seem to indicate that the intranasal administration of BBD-CMs may be an effective vaccine against atrophic rhinitis in pigs.

목 적: 골반강에 방사선치료 중 벨리보드를 사용함으로써 방사선에 조사되는 소장과 방광의 체적 변화를 측정하여 벨리보드의 효과를 알아보기 위한 연구이다. 대상 및 방법: 골반강 종양으로 골반강에 4문 대향 방사선조사를 받은 22명(자궁경부암; 14명, 직장암; 6명, 자궁 내막암; 2명)의 환자를 대상으로 하였으며 22명 중 4명은 근치적 목적으로 방사선치료만 시행하였으며, 18명은 수술 후 보강성 목적으로 방사선치료를 시행하였다. 모든 환자는 엎드린 상태에서 벨리보드를 사용한 경우와 사용하지 않은 경우의 2세트의 골반강 전산화 단층촬영을 시행하였다. 전산화 단층촬영으로 얻은 영상은 치료계획용 컴퓨터 시스템으로 이송하여 소장과 방광 외면의 윤곽과 4문 조사에서 표적물의 윤곽을 그렸다. 전산화 단층촬영의 영상에서 각각의 환자에서 벨리보드를 사용한 상태와 사용하지 않은 상태에서 소장과 방광의 방사선조사야에 포함되는 전체 체적과, 선량체적히스토그램(dose-volume histogram)을 이용하여 방사선량에 따른 방광 및 소장의 체적을 비교 분석하였다. 결 과: 모든 환자에서 벨리보드를 사용한 경우가 사용하지 않은 경우에 비해 방사선조사에 포함되는 소장의 체적이 감소되었으며($1{\sim}79%$), 평균 35% 감소되었다(p<0.001). 또한 처방선량의 $10{\sim}100%$까지 모든 선량에서 벨리보드를 사용한 경우 소장의 체적이 통계학적으로 유의하게 감소되었다 (p<0.001). 방사선에 조사되는 방광의 체적의 변화는 벨리보드를 사용한 경우가 사용하지 않은 경우에 비해 최대 8 cc 미만으로 변화가 없었다(p=0.762). 그러나 처방선량의 90%를 받는 방광의 체적이 벨리보드를 사용한 경우 15명(68%)은 100%, 7명(32%)은 $90{\sim}99%$이었으며 벨리보드를 사용하지 않은 경우 10명(45%)은 100%, 7명(32%)은 $90{\sim}99%$, 5명(23%)은 $80{\sim}89%$로 벨리보드를 사용한 경우 고선량을 받는 방광의 범위가 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 결 론: 자궁경부암, 자궁내막암과 직장암 환자에 근치적 목적 혹은 수술 후 보강성 목적으로 골반강에 방사선치료 중 벨리보드를 사용함으로써 모든 환자에서 방사선조사를 받는 소장의 체적을 감소시킬 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 벨리보드가 방광을 방사선조사야 내로 이동시킴에 따라 처방선량의 90%를 받는 방광의 체적이 증가할 수 있기 때문에 고선량의 방사선을 조사할 경우 방광의 손상을 고려하여 벨리보드의 사용을 신중히 선택해야 할 것으로 생각한다.

This paper derives an effective shape of the ferromagnetic pole pieces (low-speed rotor) for the reduction of transmission torque ripple in a magnetic-geared machine based on a Box-Behnken design (BBD). In particular, using a non-linear finite element method (FEM) based on 2-D numerical analysis, we conduct a numerical investigation and analysis between independent variables (selected by the BBD) and reaction variables. In addition, we derive a regression equation for reaction variables according to the independent variables by using multiple regression analysis and analysis of variance (ANOVA). We assess the validity of the optimized design by comparing characteristics of the optimized model derived from a response surface analysis and an initial model.

Since many years, continuous low dose antibiotic prophylaxis (CAP) has been used for children at a risk for recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI), especially those with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). The incidence of recurrent UTI has been shown to be higher in children with VUR with bladder and bowel dysfunction (BBD) than in those with VUR without BBD. Therefore, CAP has been recommended for children with BBD and VUR because of the increased risk of UTI. However, the use of CAP has become highly controversial because of bacterial resistance developed due to antibiotic over-usage. The preventive effects of probiotics have been proved in various adult urogenital infections, and the antimicrobial activities of lactobacilli against uropathogens have been demonstrated in previous in vitro studies. However, a critical assessment of their efficacy in children with UTI is lacking. The importance of the use of urogenital probiotics is that it is a natural approach that replenishes the depleted normal flora to create a better environment to fight off uropathogens. Probiotics have a great potential, particularly today with the increasing threat of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms.

반응 표면법(RSM)과 Box-Behnken 설계(BBD) 통계 방법을 사용하여 폐감귤박으로 만든 활성탄(WCAC)에 의한 염료 Eosin Y의 흡착을 검토하였다. 실험은 Eosin Y의 농도(Conc. : 30~50 mg/L), 용액 온도(Temp. : 293~313 K) 및 흡착제 투여량(Dose : 0.05~0.150 g/L)의 3가지 입력 변수를 가진 BBD에 따라 수행하였다. 염료 Eosin Y 제거에 대해 얻어진 2차 다항식 모델의 회귀분석 결정계수($R^2$) 값이 0.9851이고 적합성 결여(Lack of fit)의 p 값은 0.342로 실험 데이터는 2차 다항식 모델에 잘 부합하였다. 염료 농도 50 mg/L, 온도 333 K 및 흡착제 투여량 0.1056 g에서 최적 염료 흡착량 59.3 mg/g이 얻어졌다. WCAC에 의한 Eosin Y의 흡착공정은 유사 2차 속도식에 의해 잘 기술되었으며, 등온 실험결과는 Langmuir 모델식을 따랐다.

This study was aimed at using the Central Composite Design (CCD) and Box-Behnken Design (BBD) to compare the efficiency and to elucidate the main interacting parameters in the upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor, namely: Organic Loading Rate (OLR), Hydraulic Retention Times (HRT) and pH at a constant temperature of 35℃. Optimum HRT (15 h), OLR (3.5 kg.m^-3.d^-1) and pH (7) resulted in biogas production of 5,800 mL/d and COD removal of 80.8%. BBD produced a higher desirability efficiency of 94% as compared to the CCD which was 92%. The regression quadratic models developed with high R² values of 0.961 and 0.978 for both CCD and BBD, respectively, demonstrated that the interaction models could be used to pilot the design space. BBD model developed was more reliable with a higher prediction of biogas production (5,955.4 ± 225.3 mL/d) and COD removal (81.5 ± 1.014%), much close to the experimental results at a 95% confidence level. CCD model predictions was greater in terms of COD removal (82.6 ± 1.06% > 80.8%) and biogas production (4,636.31 mL/d ± 439.81 < 5,800 mL/d) which was less than the experimental results. Therefore, RSM can be adapted for optimizing various wastewater treatment processes.

Box-Behnken Design (BBD) under response surface methodology (RSM) was implemented to optimization the operating parameters and assess the removal and recovery efficiencies of crude oil from contaminated soil using subcritical water extraction. The effects of temperature, extraction time and water flow rate were explored, and the results indicate that temperature has a great impact on crude oil removal and recovery. The correlation coefficients for oil removal ($R^2=0.74$) and recovery ($R^2=0.98$) suggest that the proposed quadratic model is useful. When setting the target removal and recovery (>99%), BBD-RSM determined the optimum condition to be a temperature of $250^{\circ}C$, extraction time of 120 min, and water flow rate of 1 mL/min. An experiment was carried out to confirm the results, with removal and recovery efficiencies of 99.69% and 87.33%, respectively. This result indicates that BBD is a suitable method to optimize the process variables for crude oil removal and recovery from contaminated soil.
