  • S&T policy has been traditionally regarded as a sector policy; however, it is now evolving into an infrastructure innovation policy that forms the foundation of diverse types of policies. Simultaneously, environmental and energy policies formerly considered as sector policies are now being expanded and integrated into a higher level policy for sustainable development. With these changes underway, the importance of policy integration has increased. Efforts are being made to minimize contradictions between environmental, social, and innovation policies that emphasize proactive linkage among policies or place the highest priority on environmental policy following the theory of Environmental Policy Integration (EPI). Confronted with these policy changes, the Lee Myung-bak government announced "Low-Carbon Green Growth" in 2008 as national agenda for development that focus attention on environmental and energy issues. Economic policy and environmental policy have been traditionally seen in a conflicting relationship with different paths of policy development. However, the administration of President Lee is now emphasizing the synergy effects between the environment and economic growth with the concept of green growth. The green growth policy of the Korean government has great significance as it has built a momentum for incorporating social goals such as environmental values or sustainable development into economic growth-oriented policies; however, there remain many challenges due to the legacy of the development period that has dominated Korean society. The Korean government says it reflects "EPI" or "environmentalism" in policy goals; however, in reality it prioritizes development over the environment.

  • A comparison of essential oils composition of Aster tataricus L. (gaemichwi), Ligularia fischeri (gomchwi), Solidago virga-aurea var. asiatica Nakai (miyeokchwi), and Aster scaber (chamchwi) was performed by gas chromatography and mass spectrometry for the identification of volatile flavor characteristics in chwi-namuls. The essential oils were extracted by the hydro distillation extraction method. One hundred volatile flavor components were identified from gaemichwi essential oil. ${\alpha}$-Pinene (11.5%) was the most abundant compound, followed by myrcene (8.9%) and ${\beta}$-pinene (7.5%). Ninety-one volatile flavor components were identified from the essential oil of gomchwi. Aromadendrene (14.8%) was the most abundant component, followed by ${\beta}$-caryophyllene (7.6%) and 1-methyl-4-(1-methylethylidene)-cyclohexene (7.3%). Ninety-five volatile flavor constituents were detected in the essential oil of miyeokchwi, moreover, spathulenol (15.7%) was the most abundant component. Ninety-six volatile flavor constituents were detected in the essential oil of chamchwi. Epi-bicyclosesquiphellandrene (21.9%) was the most abundant component, followed by ${\beta}$-caryophyllene (9.5%) and ${\delta}$-terpinene (8.9%). The essential oil composition of gaemichwi was characterized by a higher contents of pinenes. The essential oil composition of gomchwi can be easily distinguished by the percentage of aromadendrene. Spathulenol and epi-bicyclosesquiphellandrene were regarded as the characteristic odorants of miyeokchwi and chamchwi, respectively.

  • This study was aimed to investigate any improvement of dewatering and energy saving on the papermaking process when the various types of fillers were used, i.e., clay, talc and grounded calcium carbonate (GCC). Cationic polyelectrolyte and alum coagulants neutralized the surface charge of the filler particles and the filler particles were coagulated. The rates of dewatering and drying were investigated. The results indicated that clay tended to intense anion, while talc and GCC tended to anion trend nearly to neutrality. Clay and talc added with EPI-DMA, P-DADMAC and alum respectively as optimum levels showed a significant efficiency on the dewatering and the turbidity dissipation. However, the turbidity and dewatering rate of GCC decreased, when GCC was added with EPI-DMA and P-DADMAC respectively Drying rate of clay was increased when coagulant added. However drying rates of talc and GCC were not affected by coagulant, while the apprarent drying time of talc and GCC in the absence of any coagulant was shorter than the clay in the presence of a coagulant. The result confirmed that talc or GCC was more efficient than clay on the dewatering and drying, which is consistent with a general knowledge in the collodal science.

  • Bioassay-directed chromatographic fractionation of an ethyl acetate extract from leaves of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas L.) afforded six quinic acid derivatives: 3,5-epi-dicaffeoylquinic acid (1), 3,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (2), methyl 3,5-O-dicaffeoylquinate (3), methyl 3,4-dicaffeoylquinate (4), methyl 4,5-dicaffeoylquinic acid (5),4,5-dicaffeoylquinate (6), and two phenolic compounds: caffeic acid (7) and caffeic acid methyl ester (8) together with three flavonoids: quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (9), quercetin 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside, isoquercitrin (10) and kaempferol 3-O-${\beta}$-D-glucopyranoside (11). The structures of these compounds were elucidated by the aid of spectroscopic methods. These compounds were assessed for antioxidant activities using three different cell-free bioassay systems. All isolates except 11 showed potent DPPH and superoxide anion radicals scavenging, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activities. 3,5-epi-DCQA (1) and methyl quinates (3-5) along with flavonoide 9 were isolated for the first time from this plant.

  • This study aim to investigate the effects of supply of oxygen enhances cerebral activation through increased activation in the brain and using a 3 Tesla fMRI system. Five volunteers (right handed, average age of 21.3) were selected as subjects for this study. Oxygen supply equipment that provides 30% oxygen at a constant rate of 15L/min was given using face mask. A 3 Tesla fMRI system using the EPI BOLD technique, and three-pulse sequence technique get of the true axial planes scanned brain images. The author can get the perfusion images of the brain by oxygen inhalation with susceptibility contrast EPI sequence at the volunteers. Complex movement consisted of a finger task in which subjects flexed and extended all fingers repeatedly in union, without the fingers touching each other. Both task consisted of 96 phases including 6 activations and rests contents. Post-processing was done on MRDx software program by using cross-correlation method. The result shows that there was an improvement in performance and also increased activation in several areas in the oxygen method. These finding demonstrates that while performing cognitive tasks, oxygen administration was due to increase of cerebral activation.

  • The metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor(MOSFET) has undergone many changes in the last decade in response to the constant demand for increased speed, decreased power, and increased patting density. The devices are scaled down day by day. Therefore, This paper investigates how MOSFET structures influence on transport properties in according to change of channel length and bias and, observes impact ionization between the drain and the gate. This paper proposes three models, i.e., conventional MOSFET, LDD MOSFET and EPI MOSFET. The gate lengths are 0.3$\mu\textrm{m}$ 0.15$\mu\textrm{m}$, 0.075$\mu\textrm{m}$ and scaling factor is λ = 2. We have presented MOSFET's characteristics such as I-V characteristic, impart ionization, electric field, using the TCAD. We have analyzed the adaptive channel and doping influences

  • A najor current challenge and constraint in cervical cancer research is the development of vaccines against human papilloma virus (HPV) epitopes. Although many studies are done on epitope identification on HPVs, no computational work has been carried out for high risk forms which are considered to cause cervical cancer. Of all the high risk HPVs, HPV 16, HPV 18 and HPV 45 are responsible for 94% of cervical cancers in women worldwide. In this work, we computationally predicted the promiscuous epitopes among the E6 proteins of high risk HPVs. We identified the conserved residues, HLA class I, HLA class II and B-cell epitopes along with their corresponding secondary structure conformations. We used extremely precise bioinformatics tools like ClustalW2, MAPPP, NetMHC, Epi,Jen, EpiTop 1.0, ABCpred, BCpred and PSIPred for achieving this task. Our study identified specific regions 'FAFR(K)DL' followed by 'KLPD(Q)LCTEL' fragments which proved to be promiscuous epitopes present in both human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I, class II molecules and B cells as well. These fragments also follow every suitable character to be considered as promiscuous epitopes with supporting evidences of previously reported experimental results. Thus, we conclude that these regions should be considered as the important for design of specific therapeutic vaccines for cervical cancer.
