  • Objectives : It is very important to know the exact dosage of the Decoctions in 《Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases》. This study identified the characteristics of 15 Medicinal marked in volume and calculated their dosages in weight. Methods : The origin, processing methods, and properties of 15 Medicinal were identified. The shape of the appropriate container that measures the volume of one seung was estimated, and the dosage in volume was converted into weight. These were compared with the dosages indicated by weight or count. Results : The 15 Medicinal were categorized into liquids, powders, and grains. Ten items had only one dosage, of which three items had one seung, and seven items had 0.5 seung. Five items had two different dosages, of which four items had one or 0.5 seung, and only Suis Fel was 0.2 or 0.1 seung. Pinelliae Tuber and Urine were marked as 0.5 seung for convenience of measurement, although 0.4 seung were accurate. There were 20 different dosages in total, and when converted into weight, they matched 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, or 16 Ryang, with none of 5 Ryang. Some exceptions that did not fit in the above were indicated by weight or count. Conclusions : In the Decoctions of 《Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases》, dosages of 15 Medicinal were easy to measure by volume, and when converted into weight, they were consistent with the dosages originally indicated in weight or count.

  • Objectives : This study aimed to convert into weight the dosages of flower of Daphne canescens and leaf of Phyllostachys nigra var. henonsis, whose daily dosages are likened to an object in 《Treatise on Cold Damage Diseases》. This study also aimed to understand their implications along with the previously studied gypsium and rhubarb. Methods : After reviewing documents, the dosages were converted into weight, confirmed by experiment, and their implications were considered. Results : A chicken-egg-volume of flowers of Daphne canescens is one Ryang(6.5 g) and two handfuls of leaves of Phyllostachys nigra var. henonsis is four Ryang(13 g). Each item was only used once in a decoction. Their dosages were expressed in weight respectively in 《Supplement to the Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold》 and 《Bohenggyuljangbuyongyakbubyo》. Gypsium dosage was expressed in weight except in Daecheongryong-tang as chicken-egg-volume(16 Ryang). To liken a dosage to an object is an exception, as in the three cases above; for precision and convenience it is recommended that dosages be expressed in weight, in which case all three items fell into one of eight categories from one Ryang to 16 Ryang. Rhubarb was measured in weight, but only when using the 12-hour leaching method, four Ryang of rhubarb was cut into of 5-6 wide-go-stone-sized pieces and two Ryang into 5-6 go-stone-sized pieces. Conclusions : To liken a dosage to an object is only an exception and lacks precision and convenience; therefore dosages ended up expressed in weight, count, or volume.

  • This study was to find a more accurate method fur measuring small vancomycin dosages which are commonly used in neonates by comparing single and double dilution method. For single dilution method, 500 mg of vancomycin powder was accurately measured and reconstituted with 5 ml of distilled water to make a concentration of 100 mg/ml. Volumes of 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 ml, which equal the target dosages of 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg, were measured using syringes made by Shina and each sample was further diluted with 2 ml of $5\%$ dextrose. The solution of 100 mg/ml concentration was further diluted with $5\%$ dextrose to make a concentration of 20 mg/ml. Volumes of 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 ml, which correspond to 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mg, were sampled by the same Shina's syringe as in single dilution method and then each sample was further diluted to make a total volume of 10 ml. Each sample was analyzed by HPLC. The measured dosages of each sample in both single and double dilution methods were lower than the target dosages; however, e values in double dilution method were higher than those in single dilution method for seven target dosages. Percent target dosages in single dilution method were 65 to $90\%$, while in double dilution method 91 to $94\%$. Statistically significant difference between two groups was shown in 5, 10, 15, 20, and 40 mg dosages (p<0.05). In conclusion, when preparing small vancomycin dosages lower an 20 mg $(volume{\leq}0.2\;ml)$, using Shina's syringes, the double dilution method has a closer value to the target dosage than single dilution method.

  • This study evaluates the dosages of Class F fly ash, lithium nitrate and their combinations to suppress the excessive expansion caused by alkali-silica reactivity (ASR). In order to serve the proposed objective, the mortar bar specimens were prepared from (1) four dosages of Class F fly ash, such as 15, 20, 25 and 30 % as a partial replacement of Portland cement, (2) up to six dosages of lithium nitrate, such as lithium-to-alkali molar ratios of 0.59, 0.74, 0.89, 1.04, 1.19 and 1.33, and (3) the combination of lithium salt (lithium-to-alkali molar ratio of 0.74) and two dosages of Class F fly ash (15 and 20 % as a partial replacement of Portland cement). Percent contribution to ASR-induced expansion due to the fly ash or lithium content, test duration and their interaction was also evaluated. The results showed that the ASR-induced expansion decreased with an increase in the admixtures in the mortar bar. However, the specimens made with the both Class F fly ash and lithium salt produced more effective mitigation approach when compared to those prepared with fly ash or lithium salt alone. The ASR-induced expansions of fly ash or lithium bearing mortar bars by the proposed models generated a good correlation with those obtained by the experimental procedures.

  • 본 연구에서는 천연섬유인 양마를 섬유보강 콘크리트에 사용하기 위한 방안으로, 양마의 혼입량에 따른 콘크리트의 역학적 특성을 실험적으로 확인하였다. 양마는 표면이 거칠고 섬유의 인장력 및 부식저항성이 우수하기 때문에, 섬유보강재로 적용할 경우에 콘크리트의 인장강도 및 부착력 증대에 의한 균열저감 효과, 그리고 이산화탄소를 저감하는 친환경 재료로 기대된다. 이러한 연구를 위하여 기본배합 조건에 양마의 혼입량 4종류(0, 0.3, 0.6 및 $0.9kg/m^3$)를 대상으로 슬럼프, 공기량, 소성수축 균열 및 압축강도, 할열인장강도, 휨강도, 그리고 건조수축량 등에 대한 성능시험을 실시하였다. 실험결과, 양마의 혼입량이 증가할수록 슬럼프 저하 및 공기량 증대현상이 나타났지만, 차이는 크지 않았다. 특히, 할열인장강도 및 휨강도 증진에 매우 효과적이며, 소성수축균열 및 건조수축량 저감에도 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 콘크리트의 역학적 성능, 경제성 등을 고려하여 양마의 혼입량은 $0.6kg/m^3$로 사용하는 것이 가장 적합한 것으로 나타났으며, 향후 사용성 및 비교시험을 통한 현장적용성의 검토가 필요할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Oral cancer is one of the most common and lethal cancers in the world. Combination chemotherapy coupled with nanoparticle drug delivery holds substantial promise in cancer therapy. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two dosages of our novel pH and temperature sensitive doxorubicin-methotrexate-loaded nanoparticles (DOX-MTX NPs) with attention to the MMP-2 mRNA profile in a 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide induced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) model in the rat. Our results showed that both IV and oral dosages of DOX-MTX NP caused significant decrease in mRNA levels of MMP-2 compared to the untreated group (p<0.003). Surprisingly, MMP-2 mRNA was not affected in DOX treated compared to cancer group (p>0.05). Our results indicated that IV dosage of MTX-DOX is more effective than free DOX (12 fold) in inhibiting the activity of MMP-2 in OSCCs (P<0.001). Furthermore, MMP-2 mRNA expression in the DOX-MTX treated group showed a significant relation with histopathological changes (P=0.011). Compared to the untreated cancer group, we observed no pathological changes and neither a significant alteration in MMP-2 amount in either of healthy controls that were treated with oral and IV dosages of DOX-MTX NPs whilst cancer group showed a high level of MMP-2 expression compared to healthy controls (p<0.001).Taking together our results indicate that DOX-MTX NPs is a safe chemotherapeutic nanodrug that its oral and IV forms possess potent anti-cancer properties on aggressive tumors like OSCC, possibly by affecting the expression of genes that drive tumor invasion and metastasis.

  • The proper administration of melatonin has well been documented to induce testicular regression in seasonal breeding animals. The subcutaneous injections of melatonin in the afternoon, not in the morning, consistently occurred testicular involution in the male Syrian (golden) hamsters whose reproductive activity is regulated by the photoperiod. But the effects of daily melatonin via gavage have not been estimated. Golden hamsters housed in long photoperiod (LP) were divided into 5 groups: the control animals housed in LP or in short photoperiod (SP) and animals treated daily with low (15 ㎍), middle (150 ㎍), and high dosages (1,500 ㎍) of pure melatonin by using gavage in the evening for 8 weeks. As results, LP control animals had large testes and SP controls displayed small and entirely regressed testes. The animals treated with various dosages of melatonin showed collectively degenerating effects on the weights of testes, epididymides, and seminal vesicles in the middle and high dosage groups, with the individual differences as well. The high dosages induced testicular regression in more proportion than the middle dosages did. The low dosage had large testes like the LP control animals. The small and inactive testes shown in some animals of both middle and high groups presented the complete regression as those of the animals maintained in SP. These results strongly suggest that the administrations of melatonin lead to testicular involution in the male golden hamsters when it is administered through gavage.

  • 본 연구에서는 낙동강 하류 매리원수, 부산시 회동수원지 원수 및 매리원수를 정수처리하는 pilot-plant의 급속 모래여과 처리수를 이용하여 오존 투입농도별로 $BDOC_{rapid}$4와 $BDOC_{slow}$의 생성특성에 대하여 조사하였다. $BDOC_{total}$ 농도가 최대가 되는 오존 투입 농도는 매리원수, 회동원수 및 모래여과 처리수에서 각각 0.9, 1.1 및 1.4 $mgO_3/mgDOC$로 조사되어 실험에 사용된 시료수의 특성에 따라 $BDOC_{total}$이 최대로 생성되는 오존 투입농도는 다르게 나타났다. $BDOC_{rapid}$를 최대로 생성시키는 오존 투입농도는 $BDOC_{total}$을 최대로 생성시키는 오존 투입농도 보다 낮은 $0.9{\sim}1.1\;mgO_3$/mgDOC로 나타났으며, 1 $mgO_3$/mgDOC 이상의 오존 투입농도에서는 $BDOC_{rapid}$의 농도가 오하려 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 또한. 오존 처리에 따른 $BDOC_{slow}$의 생성특성 조사에서 $BDOC_{slow}$$BDOC_{total}$$BDOC_{rapid}$를 최대로 생성시키는 오존 투입농도 보다 더 높은 오존 투입농도에서도 지속적으로 생성되었다. Biofiltration 공정의 전처리로 사용되는 오존의 최적 투입량을 결정할 수 있는 $BDOC_{rapid}/BDOC_{total}$비를 실험에 사용된 시료수별로 조사한 결과 $0.6{\sim}1.0\;mgO_3$/mgDOC로 조사되어 $BDOC_{total}$이 최대로 생성되는 오존 투입농도 $0.9{\sim}1.4\;mgO_3$/mgDOC보다 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 최적의 오존 투입율 결정시 BDOC 분류를 통한 접근법이 경제성 측면이나 biofiltration 공정의 효율면에서도 훨씬 효율적인 것으로 조사되었다.
