  • The objective of this study was to investigate skin whitening effect of Resorcinol dipentyl ether [1,3-di(pentyloxyl)benzene] by in vitro experiments. Resorcinol dipentyl ether was prepared by alkylation of resorcinol with 1-bromopentane. The reaction products were confirmed by NMR, MS and other analytical equipments. In order to evaluate the skin safety of resorcinol dipentyl ether, the cytotoxicity of the cells constituting the skin (keratinocyte, melanocyte, fibroblast) was analyzed and similar cell viability was observed in all cell lines as compared with the control group. Inhibition of extracellular melanin synthesis effect of resorcinol dipentyl ether was approximately 65.75% at $20{\mu}g/mL$ and inhibition of intracellular melanin synthesis effect of resorcinol dipentyl ether was approximately 53.89% at $20{\mu}g/mL$. The real-time PCR and western blot analysis of mRNA expression and protein expression of tyrosinase, TRP-1, and TRP-2 related to melanogenesis revealed that melanin inhibitory effect of resorcinol dipentyl ether was inhibited from the transcription stage respectively. Finally, this study suggested applicability of Resorcinol dipentyl ether [1,3-di(pentyloxyl)benzene] as a whitening functional cosmetic new material.

  • Synthesis and Biological activity test are described for the (E)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate and (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate, the sex pheromone of the Asiatic leafroller moth (Archippus breviplicanus Walsingham). 10-Bromodecan-1-ol THP ether was prepared from 10-bromodecan-1-ol. In liquid ammonia with THF and HMPA as cosolvents, sodium acetylide could be alkylated with 10-bromodecan-1-al THP ether to give 11-dodecyn-1-ol THP ether. 11-Dodecyn-1-ol THP ether was then treated with n-Buli in THF to give the lithium acetylide, which was alkylated with bromoethane to afford 11-tetradecyn-1-ol THP ether. 11-Tetradecyn-1-ol THP ether was then reduced over $Pd/BaSO_4$ and with Na in liquid $NH_3$ to give (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-ol THP ether and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-ol THP ether, respectively. (Z)-and (E)-11-Tetradecen-1-ol THP ether thus obtained were deprotected by refluxing in the presence of PPTS and ethanol. (Z)-and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-ol were acetylated with acetic anhydride to afford the final products, (Z)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate (1) and (E)-11-tetradecen-1-yl acetate (2), respectively. The synthetic pheromone thus obtained was attractive to the males of the Asiatic leafroller moth in the field.

  • Blockchain technology is also actively studied in the real estate transaction field, and real estate transactions have various ways. In this paper, we propose a model that simplifies the authentication procedure of auction systems using Ethereum's Ether to solve the problem of offline court auctions. The proposed model is written in Ethereum's Solidity language, the court registers the sale date and the sale date with the DApp browser, and the bidder accesses the address of the individual's wallet created through Metamask's private key. The bidder then selects the desired sale and enters the bid price amount to participate in the auction. The bidder's record of the highest bid price for the sale he wants is written on the Ethereum test network as a smart contract. and creates a block. Finally, smart contracts written on the network are distributed by the court auction manager to all nodes in the blockchain network, and each node in the blockchain network can be viewed and contract verified. As a result of analyzing the smart contracts of the proposed model and the performance of the system, there are fees incurred due to the creation and use of Ether on platforms using Ethereum, and participation. Ether's changes in value affect the price of the sale, resulting in inconsistent fees in smart contracts each time. However, in future work, we issue our own tokens to solve the market volatility problem and commission problem with the value change of Ether, and refine complex court auction systems.

  • Focused on the material-related aspect for enhancing the durability of concrete, the present study analyzed the effect of glycol ether admixture, which is a chemical admixture that can compact the structure of concrete by entraining air inside the concrete, on the basic physical properties and durability characteristic of the concrete. In analyzing the results of experiment, we examined the basic physical properties and durability characteristic of concrete according to addition rate based on OPC and selected the optimal addition rate. In addition, with the optimal addition rate, we added glycol ether admixture to concrete, which contained fly ash used as binder and high-performance water reducing agent for reducing the unit quantity, and examined changes in the characteristics of the concrete. According to the result, the optimal addition rate of glycol ether admixture was 3% of the unit quantity of cement, and the addition of binder and chemical admixture did not have a significant effect on unhardened concrete but reduced the air content. In addition, concrete showed resistance performance of around 30% to carbonation and around 40% to drying shrinkage. In addition, as for resistance to freezing and thawing, the relative dynamic modulus of elasticity was over around 85% through atmospheric curing. These performances prove the effect.

  • The inhibitory activity of Lactobacillus plantarum Lp2 isolated from Kimchi was investigated against E. colz, Staphylococcus aureus, Str. faecalis, P. aeruginosa and psycrotrophic strain Pcl. The addition of ether extract from Lp2 culture broth completely inhibited the growth of E, coli, P. aeruginosa and Pc1, but the inhibitory action was weak against S. aureus and Str. faecalis. The inhibitory substance(s), soluble in methanol, acetone and ethyl ether, was active in the pH range of 5 and 6, but the activity was lost above pH 6. The activity was retained after heating at $121^{\circ}C$ for 15 min. By dialysis, the molecular weight of the inhibitory substancek) was estimated under 1000. The TLC analysis of Lp2 ether extract revealed the presence of three bands and the inhibitory activity was found in that of $R_f$ value 0.73.

  • Drug delivery systems have been developed to reduce the side toxicity of drugs by localizing them in the site of action. But it depends on the circulation of the blood and it doesn't have the function of locomotive mechanism of itself for searching for the region of disease. However, this problem could be solved by nanobot which have the locomotive function. So, we mimic the movement of cell that can move in a human body. In this paper, to polymerize the encapsulated actin within the liposome, electroporation technique is employed. In order to optimize polymerization and depolymerization of the liposome, we compare the time of polymerization and depolymerization by concentration of crown ether. we synthesis the liposome which contain azobenzene Linked crown Ether conjugated Actin protein. Azobenze linked crown ether holds the K+ ion by exposure of UV light and this disturbs the actin polymerization. In result, UV light could control the liposome growth. Finally, we could develop the liposome robot and control the growth and degeneration of the liposome by external stimuli such s UV light. The merit of the controlling by UV light doesn't need to inject proteins which induce polymerization and depolymerization of actin protein.

  • We propose a method for the implementation of an EtherCAT communication bus in a Linux-based open source Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) system. Recently, increasingly more CNC systems support real-time Ethernet protocols such as EtherCAT, which is a high-performance industrial communication protocol. For real-time CNC control over an Ethernet-based protocol, an additional layer driver needs to be implemented between the CNC system and the master of industrial communication protocol. Among the various solutions for the connection layer driver, we employ a Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) driver based on Linux. The operation of the implemented CNC system is demonstrated and confirmed by Hal Meter, which is used to observe the pins, signals, or parameters of HAL.

  • Four seasonal trials were conducted to study the effect of feeding clomiphene citrate on carcass composition of broilers. It was fed at 5, 10, 15 mg levels per kg feed for a period of two weeks, 3-4 weeks ($S_1$), 4-5 weeks ($S_2$) and 5-6 weeks ($S_3$) of age. Total carcasses were analysed for moisture, ether extract and protein. Clomiphene citrate significantly decreased the moisture with concomitant increase in ether extract content of the carcasses at all the ages and seasons. Carcass protein was significantly decreased at all the ages and seasons. The responses in the different level of clomiphene citrate is dose dependent. The carcass moisture decreased with age while protein and ether extract contents increased in all seasons. The females had more ether extract and less moisture contents than male. The carcass ether extract was higher in summer and rainy seasons followed by spring and winter seasons, and the differences were significant. A concomitant significant decrease of carcass moisture was observed. The effect of seasons on carcass protein varied at different ages but there appeared to be a trend towards decreasing carcass protein in summer and rainy seasons than winter and spring seasons.

  • A gas chromatography/mass spectrometric assay method was developed for the simultaneous determination of ethylene glycol monomethyl ether (EGME) and diethylene glycol monomethyl ether (DEGME) in spilled aviation fuels. Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (EGBE) and ethylene glycol monoethyl ether (EGEE) were used as internal standard and surrogate, respectively. The sample preparation consists of back-extraction with 7 mL of methylene chloride after extraction of 50 mL of fuel with 2 mL of water. The extract was concentrated to dryness and dissolved with 100L of methanol and analyzed by CC-MS (SIM). The peaks had good chromatographic properties by using semi-polar column and the extraction of these compounds from fuel also gave high recoveries of 75 and 85 % with small variations for EGME and DEGME, respectively. Method detection limits were 1.3 ng/mL for EGME and 1.0 ng/mL for DEGME in spilled fuel. The method may be useful for fuel-type differentiation between kerosene and JP-8, which may originate from the storage tank.
