This study is to investigate the trend of researches on food and culture from 1990 to 2003. With a literary approach, this paper analyzes how many papers were published and what was the major research subject. We classified the journals published during this time into 10 different categories and we are to grasp a research trend. 1) Historical approach on the traditional food and food habit; 2) Globalization of Koran food; 3) Use and preparation for traditional food; 4) Table setting and table manner; 5) Provincial cuisine; 6) Traditional festive food or celebratory meal; 7) Religious food; 8) Fusion food; 9) Food and culture in foreign countries and food habit of Korean people living abroad; 10) Studies related with satins out. It was revealed that 268 papers(=ps) were published. Eating out was the most frequently reported subject(100 ps), followed by provincial cuisine(54 ps), use and preparation for traditional food(49 ps), food habit for foreign people and Korean people living abroad(22 ps). Researches on these 4 topics have been accelerated since the late half of 1990s. This reflects the social factors such as rapid growth of food service industry, settlement of local autonomy, popularization of leisure activities and accelerated introduction of foreign food and culture. Half of the studies on the eating out dealt with eating out behavior. And 30 papers were reports on the food service industry situations. More than half of the studies on the provincial cuisine(26 ps) were concentrated on digging out recipes. Studies on the use and preparation for traditional food were mainly about what kind of food and how often the food is used(17 ps). Kimchi was the most frequently studied food. There were 11 papers regarding food and culture in foreign countries. Most of the authors were historians or linguists. Food habit of Korean people living abroad were investigated in 7 papers. There was few studies on fusion food, table setting and table manner. This doesn't meet with increasing demand for specialized information in then fields. Researches on the traditional festive food or celebratory meal(5 ps) and religious food(9 ps) were negligible. Papers on the historical approach to the traditional food and food habit were limited(12 ps). Moreover, most of them were patchwork of existing literatures. Continuous researches to exploit the historical facts based on literary proof should be tried with patience. Otherwise, the papers will copy the hackneyed knowledge repeatedly. Globalization of Korean food means the development of Korean food for foreign people and export of them worldwide. Only 16 papers were reported on this subject, 14 of them were published after 2000, 8 of them were surveys on the foreigners' food preference. In order to get practical informations on what we develope and how we sell for the foreign customers, profound research on their food habit should be done.

Objective : The objective of this study was to demonstrate the effect of Persicae Semen (PS) in DNCB-induced atopic dermatitis mouse and HaCaT cell. Methods : The BALB/c mice were divided into four groups. To develop atopic dermatitis, 200 ㎕ of 1 and 0.5% DNCB solution was put on the back of mice in the Control group, the PS-Low group and the PS-High group once a day. After application of DNCB, 200 ㎕ of the PS extract was also treated. The Normal group was given PBS. The mice dorsal skin was stained with Masson's trichrome, H&E, and toluidine blue to evaluate the thickness of the epidermis and dermis, infiltration of eosinophils and mast cells respectively. ELISA was applied to measure the serum level of IgE and IL-6. Toxicity of PS was measured by MTS assay in HaCaT cell. To investigate the effects of PS on HaCaT cells, cells were pre-treated with PS for 1h, and then stimulated with TNF-α and IFN-γ. After 24 hours, the expression of TARC was analyzed using RT-PCR. Results : PS not only significantly diminished the thickness of the epidermis and dermis, but also reduced the infiltration of eosinophil and mast cell in skin lesion. PS also reduced the serum IgE and IL-6 level which plated important roles in the atopic dermatitis. The expression of TARC was decreased significantly in TNF-α/IFN-γ stimulated HaCaT cell. Conclusion : These results suggest that PS may be effective in alleviating the atopic dermatitis induced by DNCB and inflammation by TNF-α/IFN-γ.

We evaluated the morphological characteristics of 79 popcorn inbred lines, which were developed to breeding popcorn variety at Maize Experiment Station, Gangwon Agricultural Research and Extension Services, by examining ten quantitative and three qualitative characteristics. In the survey of 3 qualitative traits for 79 popcorn inbred lines, most inbred lines respectively showed purple (46 inbred lines) at tassel color (QL1), green (55inbred lines) at silk color (QL2) and green (75 inbred lines) at stem color (QL3). While, on the survey of 10 quantitative traits among 79 popcorn inbred lines, they showed the morphological variation in plant height (QN1, $174.2{\pm}34.9$ cm), ear height (QN2, $103.4{\pm}24.7$ cm), ear length (QN3, $9.4{\pm}3.0$ cm), kernel setting length (QN4, $8.4{\pm}2.6$ cm), ear thickness (QN5, $24.9{\pm}7.7$ mm), ear row number (QN6, $14.0{\pm}2.3$ number), ear weight (QN7, $36.5{\pm}26.0$ g), kernel weight (QN8, $30.9{\pm}19.3$ g), 100 kernel weight (QN9, $10.4{\pm}3.8$ g) and germination rate (QN10, $95.3{\pm}8.1%$), respectively. As a result, 5 inbred lines (PS0-001, PS0-003, PS1-002, PS1-003, PS2-009) in the 79 popcorn inbred lines have showed comparatively high values for the five quantitative traits. On the principal component analysis, silk color (QL2), ear length (QN3), kernel setting length (QN4), ear thickness (QN5), ear weight (QN7), kernel weight (QN8) and 100 kernel weight (QN9) greatly contributed in positive direction on the first principal components, whereas tassel color (QL1), stem color (QL3), ear height (QN2) and ear row number (QN6) contributed in negative direction on the first principal component. In addition, plant height (QN1), ear height (QN2), and kernel weight (QN8) contributed in positive direction on the second principal component, and also tassel color (QL1), silk color (QL2), ear length (QN3), ear row number (QN6) and 100 kernel weight (QN9) contributed in negative direction on the second principal component.

A multisegmented polystyrene (PS) with pH-cleavable ester and carbamate linkages was successfully synthesized by a combination of atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) and Cu(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azide and alkynes (click chemistry). ATRP was employed to synthesize polystyrene from hydroxyl-terminated initiator using CuBr/N,N,N',N",N"-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDETA) as the catalyst. The reaction of the resulting PS with sodium azide yielded the azido-terminated polymer. The hydroxyl group in the other end of the polymer was reacted with 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate (NPC), followed by reaction with propargylamine to produce an alkyne end group with a carbamate linkage. The PS with an alkyne group in one end and an azide group in the other end was then self-coupled in the presence of CuBr/2,2'-bipyridyl (bpy) in DMF to yield a desired multisegmented PS. Molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the self-coupled polymer increased with time, as in the typical step-growth-type polymerization processes. Finally, we demonstrated that the ester and carbamate linkages of the multisegmented PS were hydrolyzed in the presence of HCl to yield individual PS chains.

02PS15 extracts (BuOH, $H_2O$, and crude extracts) significantly inhibited IL-4 and IL-6 secretion from the phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-plus phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-induced peripheral blood mononuclear cleas (P<0.05). 02PS15 extracts (BuOH and crude extracts) also significantly inhibited the histamine release from rat peritoneal mast cells (P<0.05). Significant reduced levels (P<0.05) of PMA- and A23187-induced IL-8 were observed in the human mast cell line, HMC-1, with O2PS15 extracts (BuOH and crude extracts). 02PS15 extracts (BuOH and crude extract) downregulated the expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in the activated HMC-1. These results suggest that O2PS15 has the inhibitory effect of atopic allergic reaction anil this might be useful for clinical application to treat several allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 넓은 시야각, 얇은 두께의 특성으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자 기술로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 백색 조명 광원 관련 기술은 친환경 에너지와 관련하여 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 청색과 황색의 유기물층을 적층하여 제작한 백색 유기발광소자는 서로 다른 두 유기물질의 계면 불균일로 인한 효율 저하와 형광 여기자의 수명과 유기물의 두께 상관관계에 따라 색안정성이 나빠지는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 poly (2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene (MEH-PPV)와 polystyrene (PS) 혼합물을 스핀코팅 방법을 사용하여 박막을 형성한 후 열처리에 의한 상분리 현상을 이용하여 선택적으로 PS 물질을 제거하여 MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 발광층을 형성하여 황색 고분자 발광층의 표면 성질 변화를 관찰하였다. 고분자 MEH-PPV와 PS의 혼합 비율과 혼합층 두께에 따른 MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 박막의 변화를 원자힘 현미경을 통하여 관찰할 수 있었다. MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 발광층의 표면 특성은 MEH-PPV와 PS 혼합물의 PS 혼합비가 높아지면 표면거칠기가 작아지며, 혼합된 두 고분자 물질의 분자량의 차이에 의한 응집도의 차이로 인하여 MEH-PPV와 PS 혼합물 박막의 두께가 얇아지면 표면거칠기가 커진다. 이 연구 결과는 고분자-저분자 혼합 발광층 구조를 사용하는 백색 유기발광소자의 효율 향상에 대한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다.

The co-pyrolysis characteristics of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) and polystyrene (PS) mixtures with ZnO have been studied by thermogravimetry (TG) and gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) under various mixing ratios and reaction temperatures. From this work, it was found that the yield of liquid products increased as PS in mixtures increased, whereas that of gaseous products decreased. And as ZnO in mixtures increased, the yields of gaseous products and HCI decreased. The optimal reaction temperature for the maximum yield of liquids products and the control of HCI gas was $500^{\circ}C$.

Porous silicon(PS) as an excellent light diffuser can be used as an antireflection layer without other antireflection coating(ARC) materials. PS layers were obtained by electrochemical etching(ECE) anodization of silicon wafers in hydrofluoric acid/ethanol/de-ionized(DI) water solution($HF/EtOH/H_2O$). This technique is based on the selective removal of Si atoms from the sample surface forming a layer of PS with adjustable optical, electrical, and mechanical properties. A PS layer with optimal ARC characteristics was obtained in charge density (Q) of 5.2 $C/cm^2$. The weighted reflectance is reduced from 33 % to 4 % in the wavelength between 400 and 1000 nm. The weighted reflectance with optimized PS layers is much less than that obtained with a commercial SiNx ARC on a potassium hydroxide(KOH) pre-textured multi-crystalline silicon(mc-Si) surface.

The structure and optical properties of n-type and p-type porous silicon (PS) prepared by the chemical etching in the light and the dark, respectively, are reported in this paper. Microstructural features of the samples are mainly investigated by SEM, AFM XRDGI techniques. Also, their optical properties are investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and Fourier transform infrared absorption measurements. In the n-type PS, the room temperature photoluminescence is observed in a visible range from 500 nm to 650 nm in contrast to that in the blue region (400∼650 nm) in p-type PS. Further, semi-transparent Cu films in thickness range of ∼40 nm are deposited by rf-magnetron sputtering on PS to investigate the I-V characteristics of the samples.
