In the present work we consider morphological structure of the faces of BGO crystals grown by Czochralski technique under the conditions of low temperature gradient (0.1~1 deg/cm) and interconnection between the morphological features of faces at the crystallization front and the formation of defects within the crystal volume. It is demonstrated that the {112} faces retain stability while the growing surface deviates from the crystallographic (112) plane up to 1 degree. At larger deviation, the region of the stable facet growth passes either to the region of macrosteps or to the region of normal growth. depending on conditions.

YIG는 분해용융을 하므로 FZ법을 개량한 TSFZ법을 적용하여 YIG단결정을 성장시켰다. 최적성장조건은 성장속도 1mm/hr, 상호역방향 회전속도 30rpm이었으며 소결 및 결정성장시 산화분위기를 필요로 하였고 성장된 결정의 질은 소결정도에 의해 많은 영향을 받았다. Melt내 기포의 생성은 철이온과 산소와의 반응에 의해 발생되었으며 기포의 밀도는 성장속도가 빨라질수록 증가하였다. 성장속도는 1mm/hr 이상일 경우에는 Cell Growth가 발생하였으며 결정의 가장자리에서 전위밀도가 증가하였다. 또한 성장된 결정에서는 제2상으로 Orthoferrite가 관찰되었다.

Transfer of Candida albicans grown in Sabouraud medium to the RPMI medium induces the transition from a nonpathogenic yeast form to a pathogenic hyphal form. This transition was severely inhibited in a dose-dependent manner when deer antler extract was added to the RPMI medium in a nontoxic range (up to $500{\mu}g$). In that range, deer antler extract inhibited the hyphal transition and cell growth, whereas no effect was observed on the yeast growth. When hydrophobic or hydrophilic fractions were prepared by detergent-solubilization of deer antler extract, the hydrophobic fraction showed a large degree of inhibition of the hyphal growth in Candida albicans. Neither fraction affected the growth in the yeast form. The pattern of chitin localization in the culture of the yeast form grown in RPMI in the presence of deer antler extract was confirmed by calcofluor staining and this exhibited strongly the suppression of hyphal transition.

발효액중에 생성된 에탄올의 농도가 균의 성장 및 에탄올 앵성속도에 미치는 영향을 연속발효법으로 연구하였다. 그 결과 생성된 에탄올의 농도 $20g^{-1}$에부터 균의 비성장속도가 급속히 저하되나 에탄올의 생성속도는 에탄올 농도가 $60g^{-1}$ 이상이 되어야 저해되는 것을 알았다. 이러한 현상은 Zymomas mobilis 균에서 특이하게 보고되었던 균성장(Anabolism)과 당대사(catabolism)사이에의 연결에 분리가 일어나는 소위 uncoupling현상이 에탄올 농도에 크게 영향을 받는 것으로 판단되었다.

Dandelions have been reported to have medicinal properties and bioactive components that impact human health. However, the precise biological properties of dandelions and the parts of the plants possessing bioactive components remain uncertain. In this study, we evaluated 3 different types of dandelions based on their cultivation origin (Songpa, Uiryung, and native Uiryung types) as well as their 4 different plant parts (leaf, flower, root, skin). Each sample was extracted with $80\%$ methanol and then compared for the biological activities (anti-oxidative, immune cell proliferative and tumor cell growth inhibitory activities). All 3 types of dandelions possessed a degree of biological functions including the hydroxyl radical scavenger activity, immune cell proliferative activity and tumor cell growth inhibitory activity. However, there was no significant difference in these activities between the 3 dandelion types. Leaves of all three dandelion types showed the highest levels of all biological activities. To a lesser degree, the flower and root parts displayed biological activities. In the skin parts, anti-oxidative activity was also detected only at higher doses of dandelion extracts. Heating the dandelion leaf extract did not affect the biological activity, suggesting a heat-stable nature of the biological compounds. Taken together, these collective data suggest that dandelions, in particular their leaves, possess a high concentration of heat-resistant biological compounds, which are responsible for anti-oxidative, immune cell proliferative and tumor cell growth-inhibitory activities.

Objective: This study aimed to present and evaluate a new deep learning model for determining cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) degree and growth spurts by analyzing lateral cephalometric radiographs. Methods: The study sample included 890 cephalograms. The images were classified into six cervical stages independently by two orthodontists. The images were also categorized into three degrees on the basis of the growth spurt: pre-pubertal, growth spurt, and post-pubertal. Subsequently, the samples were fed to a transfer learning model implemented using the Python programming language and PyTorch library. In the last step, the test set of cephalograms was randomly coded and provided to two new orthodontists in order to compare their diagnosis to the artificial intelligence (AI) model's performance using weighted kappa and Cohen's kappa statistical analyses. Results: The model's validation and test accuracy for the six-class CVM diagnosis were 62.63% and 61.62%, respectively. Moreover, the model's validation and test accuracy for the three-class classification were 75.76% and 82.83%, respectively. Furthermore, substantial agreements were observed between the two orthodontists as well as one of them and the AI model. Conclusions: The newly developed AI model had reasonable accuracy in detecting the CVM stage and high reliability in detecting the pubertal stage. However, its accuracy was still less than that of human observers. With further improvements in data quality, this model should be able to provide practical assistance to practicing dentists in the future.

The meaning of foodservice industry is various but especially its most important one contains a service industry. And so, foodservice industry should provide very impressive service to customers. if workers don't satisfy themselves at the works, they can not give a high qualifying service to the customers. Therefore, this study showed how the worker's satisfactory degree depending on working type effects on the growth of foodservice industry. The conclusions by questionnaires to workers who have worked as both a regular and a contract employment at Special First Degree Hotels in Seoul are followings. Very interestingly, the proportion of satisfying degree for the workers as regular is 34.94% but the degree for workers as contract is 36.8%. The reason is that the average age of regular workers is high and they have their family to support and they have changed their job more often than the others. They can express their problems through a labor union but the part of solution is very small. It must cause to decrease satisfying degree. The workers generally satisfied to their senior employers. It means that the negative image of higher-ups in the past has been changed. It is a serious problem that the proportion of satisfaction degree remains 30%. The managements must perceive the fact that the increase ratio of contract workers does not make low quality of service. They should know that the satisfaction degree of regular workers is lower than contract ones. In order to increase the satisfaction degree, if the managements can find out the way of taking over their authority and giving a motive, they can reduce the ratio of occupation change and nonattendance. And also they can promote the productivity in foodservice industry and in conclusion, the foodservice industry will have glowed very successfully in the near future.

본 연구에서는 진단 방법의 정확성이 아직까지 구체적으로 규명되지 않고 있는 어린이의 성장 발육을 체계적이고 과학적으로 측정할 수 있는 방법을 제시하고자 시도하였다. 현재 많이 이용되고 있는 성장 진단 방법은 X-ray 영상을 이용한 각 관절 부위의 성장판의 개폐 분석이다. 그러나 X-ray 방식은 성장 진단에서 요구되는 주기적이고 반복적인 측정을 하지 못함과 동시에 방사선 노출이라는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 인체에 무해한 초음파 영상을 이용한 성장판 개폐 분석 대체 가능성을 평가하기 위해 종골의 초음파 광역 감쇄 영상을 이용한 프로파일 분석 및 성장판 영상 분석 알고리즘을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 7세～16세의 어린이 269명에 대해서 X-ray를 이용하여 무릎, 손가락, 종골에서의 성장판 영상을 얻었다. 또한 초음파 방식을 이용하여 종골의 성장판 영상을 얻었다. 각 관절에서의 성장판 개폐 유무 시기는 각 개인별로 측정 방법에 따라 조금의 차이는 있으나 전반적으로 일치하였다. 또한. X-ray방식과 초음파 방식에 의한 성장판 영상을 비교한 결과 상호 높은 연관성을 나타내었다. 이와 같이 성장판을 정확하게 측정하기 위해 도입된 초음파 프로파일 분석 알고리즘은 기존의 X-ray 영상 방식에 의한 성장판의 측정을 대체할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Although globally the numbers of children diagnosed with failure to thrive (FTT) have decreased, FTT is still a serious pediatric problem. We aimed to investigate the effects of zinc supplementation for 6 months on growth parameters of infants and children with FTT. SUBJECTS/METHODS: In this retrospective study, of the 114 participants aged between 4 months and 6 years, 89 were included in the zinc supplementation group and were provided with nutrition counseling plus an oral zinc supplement for 6 months. The caregivers of the 25 participants in the control group received nutrition counseling alone. Medical data of these children, including sex, age, height, weight, serum zinc level, and serum insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) level were analyzed. RESULTS: Zinc supplementation for 6 months increased weight-for-age Z-score and serum zinc levels (5.5%) in the zinc supplementation group of underweight category children. As for stunting category, height-for-age Z-score of the participants in the zinc supplementation group increased when compared with the baseline, and serum zinc levels increased in the normal or mild stunting group. Serum IGF1 levels did not change significantly in any group. Thus, zinc supplementation was more effective in children in the underweight category than those in the stunted category; this effect differed according to the degree of the FTT. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that zinc supplementation may have beneficial effects for growth of infants and children with FTT, and zinc supplementation would be required according to degree of FTT.
