  • In future what kind of costume do we wear\ulcorner We can guess it is in advance through movie. Movie is a comnipresent medium and a mode of expression that reflect a distintive feature of the times like fashion. In many case costume design which belongs to a special era is based on the historic costumes but ostume design for future movie depends on the creativity of costume designer and director. Therefore it is interesting to research how costume designer get his/her design concept for future ccostume in movie how he/hse express his/her design concept through his/her costume and can we convince the design comes true practically in future. In this study I analyze the costume design of masterpieces among SF Film: (Metropolis/1926) (2001: A Space Odyssey/1968) (Star Wars/1977) (Blade Runner/1982) (The 5th Element/1977) Because this study is analyzed not through the original article but just through movie it has some limitation in exact materials or color.

  • Human skin equivalents, also designated as cultured skin substitute (Boyce and Warden, 2002) or organotypic co-cultures (Maas-Szabowski et al., 1999, 2000, 2003), are three-dimensional systems that are engineered by seeding fibroblasts into a three-dimensional dermal matrix. Such a dermal equivalent is then subsequently seeded with human keratinocytes. After cell attachment, the culture is kept first under submerged condition to allow keratinocyte proliferation. Thereafter, the culture is lifted the air-liquid interface (A/L) to expose the epidermal compartment to the air, and to further induce keratinocyte differentiation. During the air-exposure, nutrients from the medium will diffuse through the underlying dermal substrate towards the epidermal compartment and support keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation. Under these conditions, a HSE is formed that shows high similarity with the native tissue from which it was derived (Figure 1) (Bell et at., 1981; Boyce et al., 1988; Ponec et al., 1997;El Ghalbzouri et al.., 2002).

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of iron and selenium intakes on utilization of manganese in rats fed adequate, 2-fold, 4-fold iron and adequate, high selenium for 6 weeks. There was no difference feed intake across iron and selenium containing diet groups. Body weight gain in 2-fold iron and high selenium group(MFeHSe) was significantly higher than those in other groups. Serum iron level was increased with iron increment, and liver iron content was decreased with selenium supplementation. Selenium and manganese contents in tissues were decreased with iron increment. In the case of manganese balance, manganese excretion through feces was significantly increased as iron intake was increased. However, retention and apparent absorption of manganese were not significantly affected by dietary iron. From these results, it could be suggested that the supplementations of iron and selenium affected the manganese utilization. Therefore, it must be considered interaction with various minerals in micro-nutrient supplementations.

  • Achieving sustainability targets on construction projects has increasingly become one of the prime strategies for construction organizations. To provide more detailed guidance on sustainability implementation on projects, Construction Industry Institute (CII) Research Team (RT) 304 developed a catalog of the Construction Phase Sustainability Actions (CPSAs). The primary objective of this paper was the development of two support tools, the CPSA Screening Tool and the CPSA Implementation Index, that could be used to enable efficient application of CPSAs, support sustainability-related decisions, and measure CPSA implementation and performance. The authors developed the tools in four stages: conceptual, detailed planning, tool programming, and testing. The tools were then demonstrated on a capital project to confirm their efficacy and applicability. This paper presents the background, inputs and outputs, and the algorithms of each tool. The CPSA Screening Tool can prioritize the CPSAs most relevant to a project; the CPSA Implementation Index enables continuous monitoring of implementation levels.

  • Two experiments were conducted to examine the relationships between the color structure and the user preference of a CNS (Car Navigation System) digital map in terms of HSE (Human Sensibility Ergonomics). In the first experiment, the user's preference of color structures were investigated from the subjects' self-designed digital maps using a CNS digital map UIMS (User Interface Management System): in the second, statistical relation models between the user's color structure satisfaction level and the color components of CIE (Commission Internationale de ι'Eclairage) of the real products were suggested. For each experiment, CIE L*u*v* and CIE LCH color space were adapted, respectively, because they have their own characteristics of perceptual uniformity which enables the color components to transform a linear function.

  • In the UK, a person or organisation that creates risk is required to manage and control that risk so that it is reduced 'So Far As Is Reasonably Practicable (SFAIRP).' How the risk is managed is to be determined by those who create the risk. They have a duty to demonstrate that they have taken action to ensure all risk is reduced SFAIRP and must have documentary evidence, for example a risk assessment or safety case, to prove that they manage the risks their activities create. The UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE) does not tell organisations how to manage the risks they create but does inspect the quality of risk identification and management. This paper gives a brief overview of where responsibility for occupational health and safety lies in the UK, and how risk should be managed through risk assessment. The focus of the paper is three recent major UK incidents, all involving fatalities, and all of which were wholly avoidable if risks had been properly assessed and managed. The paper concludes with an analysis of the common failings of risk assessments and key actions for improvement.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary Fe and Se levels on lipid contents of serum and liver in growing rats fed adequate Fe(35ppm), medium-high Fe(70ppm), high Fe(140ppm), adequate Se(0.05ppm), and high Se(0.Sppm) for 6 weeks. Serum levels of Fe and Se increased as the levels of dietary Fe and Se were increased, respectively(P<0.05, p<0.05), Serum levels of total cholesterol and (LDL+VLDL)-cholesterol increased as the level of dietary Fe was increased (p<0.001, p<0.001), and were lower in high-Se group than those in adequate-Se group(p<0.001, P<0.001). Liver Fe level in High-Se group was lower than that in adequate-Se group(p<0.01) and liver Se level decreased as the dietary Fe level was increased(p<0.05). Liver levels of phospholipid and total lipid in high-Se group were lower than that in adequate-Se group(p<0.05 p<0.01). Liver levels of triglyceride and total lipid decreased as the level of dietary Fe was increased(p<0.05 p<0.01). From these results, it is considered that serum lipid contents are increased in case of Fe overload and decreased with adding Se. Therefore, it could be suggested that adequate Fe intake and Se addition are recommended for prevention of lipid increment in serum.

  • The major purpose of this paper to identify safety climate practices, and to find the affecting variables that influence to the difference in the level of safety climate between plants and employees. And this paper attempted to find the interventions for improving safety climate in the chemical plants. The questionnaires were developed from literature review, especially made by HSE(Health and Safety Executive) in the UK and distributed to managers and workers. The frequency analysis was applied for identifying the level of safety climate. The affecting variables(plant size, accident occurrence, accident experience, injury experience and severity, and length of employment) are tested through analysis of variance(ANOVA). The results of frequency analysis showed that both managers and workers recorded generally high level of safety climate, and the major underlying problems are inadequate H&S procedures/rules, pressure for production, and rule breaking. According to the outcomes of ANOVA, the variable 'length of employment' is the only variable which makes the level of safety climate different. From the survey of safety climate practice, this study finds the level of safety climate and three major underlying problems in safety climate factors of the responded plants, and presents two interventions for improving safety performance. Despite of these outcomes, the applied factors are remained questionable for reflecting as the best ones for identifying safety climate in the chemical industry. In addition, the bias caused by self-report exist in the reliability of the response, and the equivalent size of respondents.

  • The long-lived fission products $^{79}Se$ and $^{99}Tc$ have been considered as the major concern nuclides for the disposal of radioactive waste because of their high solubilities and the existence of anionic species in natural water. In this study, the solubilities of $FeSe_2(s)$ and $TcO_2(s)$, known as respective Solubility Limiting Solid Phase (SLSP) of selenium and technetium, were measured in the KURT (KAERI Underground Research Tunnel) groundwater under various pH and redox conditions. And their solubilities and major species were also calculated using geochemical codes under conditions similar to experimental solutions. Experimental results and calculation for $FeSe_2$ show that the solubility of selenium was found to be below $1{\times}10^{-6}mol/L$ under the condition of pH 8~9.5 and Eh=-0.3~-0.4 V while the dominant species was identified as $HSe^-$. For $TcO_2$, the solubility of technetium was found to be $5{\times}10^{-8}{\sim}1{\times}10^{-9}mol/L$ in the solutions of pH 6~9.5 and Eh<-0.1 V, while the dominant species was $TcO(OH)_2$. However, when the Eh of the solution is -0.35 V, $TcO(OH)_3^-$ and $TcO_4^-$ are calculated as the dominant species at pH 10.5~12 and pH>12, respectively.

  • In order to produce L-lysine from cellulosic substrates by the intergeneric protoplast fusion between cellulolytic bacteria, Cellulomonas flavigena KFCC31221 and amino acid producing bacteria, Brevibacterium flavum ATCC14067, Corynebacteriurn glutamicum ATCC13032, conditions for protoplast formation and regeneration of these strains were investigated. After the strains were mutated with 500$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ N-methyl-N'-nitro N-nitrosoguanidine for 30 min and the mutants were enriched by treating 300$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ penicillin-G for 2 hrs, B. flavum Hse- Str$^{r}$ , C. glutamicum Met$^{-}$Thr$^{-}$ Rif$^{r}$ and Cellulomonas flavigena Thr$^{-}$Val$^{-}$Kan$^{r}$ were isolated. The rate of protoplast formation ranged from 95 to 98% when strains were treated at the concentration of 500$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$ of lysozyme, pH 6.5, 33$^{\circ}C$, for 6 hrs. in Tris- malate buffer supplemented with 0.4M sucrose as osmotic stabilizer. Approximately 30-33% protoplast was regenerated on the regeneration complete medium(RCM) containing 1.5% agar and 0.5M sodium succinate overlaid with the same medium except 0.7% agar.
