  • For frailty management, the importance of resistance exercise has been emphasized, and various devices have been developed. Recently, digital weight control technology that converts electromagnetic resistance to a digital weight is attracting attention, but there are no reports confirming the effectiveness and safety of the device for seniors in Korea. This study conducted a biomechanic-based ergonomic analysis of an elderly-friendly exercise device utilized in digital load control technology to suggest a direction for development. Twenty seniors (age: 62.40 ± 2.09 years) were included. The load of the device was classified into three levels, and the muscle activity and heart rate were assessed during three experimental motions. A questionnaire based on the International Organization for Standardization 9241-11 was adopted to evaluate the stability, operationality, efficiency, and satisfaction with the software and device. The program could be divided into three exercise intensities that can be utilized in the field depending on whether the exercise load, muscle activity, and heart rate were consistent. The monitor size needed to be enlarged to make the menu Korean, reduce the device size, and minimize noise. Considering these findings, the development of an advanced age-friendly exercise device by improving the size, display, and noise is suggested.

  • This is a descriptive research study on industrial workers to understand the effects of drinking patterns, job stress, and leisure satisfaction on their health promotion behavior. Subjects of the survey were 207 workers undergoing health checkups at three hospitals in U metropolitan city. Data was collected from November 1, 2019, to November 30, 2019, through a structured questionnaire. The IBM SPSS 24.0 program was used to analyze data. The subjects' drinking frequency was 2 to 3 times a week, (36.3%), and the motive was a social gathering (54.6%). The averages were 62.46±5.59 for job stress, 30.29±6.39 leisure satisfaction, 125.64±8.77 for health promotion behaviors, which was higher than the median. Health promotion behavior was found to have a statistically significant positive correlation with job stress (r=.227, p<.001) and leisure satisfaction (r=.542, p<.001). A multiple regression analysis of the factors affecting health-promoting behavior showed that this is affected by drinking patterns, job stress, and leisure with an explanatory power of 29.7%. Based on this study, continuous support is needed for industrial workers to relieve their social gathering and job stress through leisure activities, not drinking, and we expect them to improve their quality of life through a healthy lifestyle and health promotion behavior.

  • Lily is one of the most important 5 cut flowers in international flower market and lilies are distributed in Asia, Eurasia and North America. To develop a new lily cultivar, in addition to hybridization, mutation and selection methods, biotechnological techniques including tissue culture are also required. Establishment of tissue culture system is one of the requirement for the breeding program in Lily. Among many fields of plant tissue culture, establishment of regeneration system via embryogenic calluses are studied in many crops. In this study, research was carried out to decide the proper concentration of picloram which is used for the induction of embryogenic calluses. As a result, 3 different types of callused were observed after 3-4 weeks. They were CEC (compact embryogenic callus), FEC (friable embryogenic callus) and white callus type. 1.0 mg /l of picloram showed the best result for the production of embryogenic callus, however, due to its higher rate of browning in this concentration, 0.75 mg/l of picloram was selected as a proper concentration of picloram for the induction of CEC and FEC in Lily. These results can be contributed to the establishment of both regeneration system and mass propagation in lily in the future.
