In this study, the extraction yield, acidic polysaccharides and ginsenosides of red and black ginseng were optimized by using the response surface methodology in consideration of the ethanol concentration and temperature of the extraction. The R² of the model formula for the yield, acidic polysaccharides and ginsenosides was 0.8378-0.9679 (p<0.1). An optimal extraction yield of 5.29% was reached for red ginseng soluble solids when 1.52% ethanol concentration was used at a temperature of 67.27℃. Additionally, the optimal extraction yield for black ginseng soluble solid was 6.11% when 3.12% ethanol concentration was used at a temperature of 66.13℃. Furthermore, the optimal conditions for extracting acidic polysaccharides from red ginseng were using an ethanol concentration of 4.03% at a temperature of 69.61℃; a yield of 1.86 mg/mL was obtained. The optimal extraction yield for acidic polysaccharides from black ginseng was 1.80 mg/mL when extracted using a concentration of 24.67% of ethanol at a temperature of 71.14℃. An optimal extraction yield of 0.22 mg/mL was reached for ginsenoside Rg₁ from red ginseng when 79.92% ethanol concentration was used at a temperature of 70.62℃. The optimal extraction yield of ginsenoside Rg₃ from black ginseng was 0.31 mg/mL when ethanol was used at a concentration of 75.70% at a temperature of 65.49℃. The ideal extraction conditions for obtaining the maximum yield of both acidic polysaccharide and ginsenoside from red and black ginseng were using ethanol at a concentration between 35 and 50% at an extraction temperature of 70℃.

This study attempts to simulate the structure of a woody leaf netted venation system by using topology optimization techniques. Based on finite element method (FEM) analysis of an incompressible fluid, a topology optimal design is applied to those woody leaf netted venation models. To solve the transverse shear locking problem of a thin plate caused by the Mindlin-Reissner plate model where a leaf netted venation is assumed to be a thin plate, a P1-nonconforming element and selective reduced integration are employed. Topology optimal design is applied to multiple physical domains. Combined with the Darcy-Stokes flow problems and extended to the optimal design of fluid channels, the multiple physical models of the flow system are analyzed and venation patterns of leafs are simulated. The calculated optimal shapes are compared with the natural shapes of woody leaf venation patterns. This interdisciplinary approach may improve our understanding of the leaf venation system.

Model was developed to predict the growth of Listeria monocytogenes in raw pork. Experiment condition for model development was full 5-by-7 factorial arrangements of temperature (0, 5, 10, 15, and $20^{\circ}C$) and time (0, 1, 2, 3, 18, 48, and 120 hr). Gompertz values A, C, B, and M, and growth kinetics, exponential growth rate (EGR), generation time (GT), lag phase duration (LPD), and maximum population density (MPD) were calculated based on growth increased data. GT and LPD values gradually decreased, whereas EGR value gradually increased with increasing temperature. Response surface analysis (RSA) was carried out using Gompertz B and M values, to formulate equation with temperature being main control factor. This equation was applied to Gompertz equation. Experimental and predictive values for GT, LPD, and EGR, compared using the model, showed no significant differences (p<0.01). Proposed model could be used to predict growth of microorganisms for exposure assessment of MRA, thereby allowing more informed decision-making on potential regulatory actions of microorganisms in raw pork.

Recent new town construction project proouced large numbers of apartment houses using precast concrete (P. C.) panels. l'bst construction companies involved in this project put their management focus on to the individual control of P.C. panel producing plants and the job sites. Little attention was paid to the integrated management of the production. transportation. and im;tallation of P. C. panels. Numerous job site delays experienced in the new town project were largely based on the poor coordination between these three key disciplines of the P. C. apartment construction. This stlldy was initiated with an .intention to improve coordination between these disciplines. Activities of these disciplines were identified and related data were gathered. This was performed through the interv:iews with the personnel involved in P. C. constructlon and through the analy::;is of the related documents and publications. Based on this information. the authors are nolol developing a model IoIhich will provide a foundation for opt:iJnal.ly coorc.inated control of the proouction. transportation, and installation of P. C. panels for apartment construction. In this paper. the authors briefly present intermediate results of this study.

합류식 하수도는 오수와 우수를 동시에 배제하는 하수관거 시스템으로 시공이 쉽고 건설비용이 저렴한 반면에 강우시 차집되지 않고 월류되는 유출량으로 인해 수체에 악영향을 초래한다. 관거에서 유출되는 유출수는 강우 초기에 유역에서 집중적으로 유출되는 비점오염원과 하수 및 관거내 오염물질 등을 동반하여 수질 개선을 어렵게 하고 수질 악화를 가중시킨다. 본 연구에서는 기존 유역에 설치된 합류식 하수관거를 분류식으로 개선하고 강우시 초기 세척에 의해 유입하는 비점오염원을 삭감하기 위한 초기우수 처리시설 설치에 따른 M 저수지 수질개선 효과를 수치모델을 사용하여 모의하였다. 저수지의 수질예측은 횡방향 평균 2차원 저수지 수리 및 수질모델인 CE-QUAL-W2를 사용하였다. 저수지 유입량은 군산기상대에서 관측한 일별 강우량 자료를 이용하여 일별 유출량을 산정하였고, 댐 방류량 자료는 M저수지의 2006년 일별 관측수위를 이용하여 유입량과 수위-체적 곡선으로부터 산정하였다. 모델의 보정은 2005년 5월과 8월에 측정한 수질자료를 이용하여 수행하였으며, 저수지의 관측값과 모의결과는 저수지 중앙부 대표지점에서 이루어졌으며, 모델은 관측값을 잘 반영하였다. 모의 결과 M 저수지의 연평균 BOD농도는 합류식(1.25 mg/L)에 비해 분류식 하수 관거(0.91 mg/L)를 도입할 경우 27.2% 개선되었으며, 초기우수 처리시설(0.84 mg/L)을 추가 할 경우 32.8%까지 개선효과가 상승하였다. 기존 합류식 하수관거의 경우 연간 유출부하량은 7,713 kg/yr이었으며, 분류식으로 전환할 경우 2,256 kg/yr, 초기우수처리시설을 추가할 경우 902 kg/yr로 삭감되는 것으로 예측되었다. 분류식하수관거와 초기우수처리를 모두 이행할 경우, BOD와 COD 기준이 호수 수질 기준 II등급 이내로 유지되며, T-P 농도는 0.02mg/L 이하로 유지되어 6월 이후 여름철에 저수지내 조류성장 억제에 효과가 클 것으로 예측되었다. 하수관거 정비사업을 통해 M 저수지는 기존의 농업용 저수지의 목표수질뿐만 아니라, 친수공간으로써 적합한 II등급 수질을 유지할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

This study was performed to investigate the anti-diabetic mechanism of crude polysaccharides isolated from the fruiting bodies of Grifola frondosa. We treated 3T3-L1 adipocyte cells to observe whether the crude polysaccharides isolated from Grifola frondosa would stimulate insulin sensitivity. Significant insulin sensitizing activity was observed in the 3T3-L1 adipocytes, and giving the crude polysaccharide of Grifola frondosa with 1 nM of insulin caused glucose uptake to increase to a similar level as giving 50 nM of insulin alone. To confirm the mechanism for the anti-diabetic effect of the crude polysaccharides, we performed further examinations within $KK-A^{y}$ mice, an animal model of type 2 diabetes. The crude polysaccharides reduced blood glucose levels in the $KK-A^{y}$ mice for 2 weeks after feeding, and also significantly lowered plasma insulin levels. These results suggest that the anti-diabetic mechanism of the crude polysaccharide of Grifola frondosa is related to the enhancement of insulin sensitivity.

Purpose : Several studies have suggested that hyperlipidemia might be a causative factor contributing to the progression of initial glomerular injury through the development of glomerulosclerosis. We examined the potential beneficial effect of atorvastatin - which blocks the rate limiting step of cholesterol synthesis by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase - in PAN-induced nephrosis. Materials and Methods : Glomerulosclerosis was induced in Sprague-Dawley male rats by repeated administration of PAN. Sprague-Dawley male rats were divided into 3 groups : group I(control), group II(PAN 20 mg/kg, subcutaneous injection), group III(PAN 20 mg/kg subcutaneous injection and atorvastatin 50 mg/kg/day per oral). On the 11th week, upon sacrifice of the experimental animals, blood sampling, 24-hr urine collection and nephrectomy were performed. Results : Group III had significantly lower BUN and higher serum albumin($30.9{\pm}17.2\;vs.\;17.3{\pm}2.5\;mg/dL;\;2.3{\pm}0.1\;vs.\;2.5{\pm}0.2\;g/dL$, P<0.05) compared with group II. In the lipid profiles, group III was associated with a reduction in total cholesterol and LDL($291{\pm}173\;vs.\;167{\pm}72\;mg/dL:\;57{\pm}53\;vs.\;27{\pm}12\;mg/dL$, P>0.05) compared with group II. Atorvastatin administration lowered the glomerular sclerosing index significantly(26.2% vs. 13.3%, P<0.05). Conclusion : Puromycin-induced glomerulosclerosis could be ameliorated by the reduction of hyperlipidemia with atorvastatin. This suggests that hyperlipidemia contributes to the pathogenesis of glomerulosclerosis.

Tortillas were prepared using rice and wheat flour. The experimental design incorporated thee independent variables(rice, wheat flour and moisture content) producing 14 samples of different proportions of each variable for each tortilla. The following were analysed using Design Expert 6 to unveil the influences of these variables on tensile strength and color(L, a, b). Results indicated that tensile strength increased with increasing rice and wheat flour content, however, decreased with increasing moisture content. Lighteness(L), of the tortilla increased with increased rice content whereas yellowness(b) increased with increased wheat flour content. The model suggests that tensile strength and color(L, a, b) in tortillas are highly correlated(SD Comment - give correlation coefficient and p-value). As well, the numerical optimization method suggests that the ratio of wheat flour to rice flour to moisture content which maximizes the three responses(tensile strenth, L and b) is 18.26 : 33.92 : 39.24%, 28.15 : 25.77 : 37.50%.
