오늘날 기업의 마케팅에 있어 인터넷 환경의 이용은 필수적이며, 좀 더 효율적인 마케팅을 위해 다양한 방법들이 시도되고 있다. 기업들은 온라인마케팅을 통해 다양한 경품이나 포인트 등의 마케팅 비용을 사용하는 것으로 제품이나 서비스를 알려왔다. 특히 웹 2.0의 등장과 함께 기업은 좀 더 적극적으로 고객과 소통하기 위한 노력을 아끼지 않고 있다. 고객들은 회사의 웹사이트에 개인정보를 제공하는 형태로 회원가입을 하여 회사가 제공하는 혜택을 받으면서 제품 광고나 프로모션에 참여하게 된다. 그러나 온라인 마케팅의 운영측면에서 볼 때 현재의 회원관리 시스템은 회원의 모집과 운영에 있어서 효과적이지 못한 문제점이 나타나고 있다. 온라인 환경에서의 고객들은 오프라인 환경에서보다 명확한 자아를 덜 드러내기 때문에 회원가입 과정 중에 일부 악의적인 목적을 가진 고객들이 주변인의 개인정보를 이용하거나 조작하여 중복 아이디를 만들어 활동할 수 있게 된다. 이러한 취약점을 이용하여 중복가입 회원들은 고객들에게 돌아가야 할 경품이나 포인트 등을 가로채어 기업 마케팅 비용의 효율을 떨어뜨리고 있다. 그러나 증가하고 있는 마케팅 비용에 비해 중복회원의 선별 및 이들에 대한 제재를 위한 효과적 방법은 뚜렷하게 제시되지 않고 있다. 따라서 이를 방지하기 위한 체계적인 회원관리 시스템이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 소셜 네트워크 분석 기법을 이용한 중복회원 식별방법을 제시하고 실제 온라인 고객데이터를 이용하여 그 효과성을 검증한다. 소셜 네트워크는 노드들의 관계를 표현하며, 관계의 유무, 방향 및 강도 등으로 연결 형태를 나타낼 수 있다. 특히 컴포넌트 분석방법은 소셜 네트워크 하위그룹 분석방법으로 네트워크의 내부 그룹을 구분하여 다양한 네트워크 특성을 식별하여 준다. 회원정보 분석에 있어 컴포넌트 분석방법은 전제회원 데이터 내의 의미 있는 정보를 이루고 있는 그룹을 식별하게 된다. 본 연구는 H사의 서로 다른 회원가입 기준을 가진 3개 웹사이트의 회원정보를 사용하여 진행되었다. 제안된 분석방법은 중복회원의 실체를 분석하고 시각화함으로써, 실무적인 측면에서 효율적인 마케팅의 증진을 도울 뿐만 아니라 신뢰성 있는 고객의 의견수렴 및 의사결정에도 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Edible films such as wax coatings, sugar and chocolate covers, and sausage casings, have been used in food applications for years$^{(1)}$ However, interest in edible films and biodegradable polymers has been renewed due to concerns about the environment, a need to reduce the quantity of disposable packaging, and demand by the consumer for higher quality food products. Edible films can function as secondary packaging materials to enhance food quality and reduce the amount of traditional packaging needed. For example, edible films can serve to enhance food quality by acting as moisture and gas barriers, thus, providing protection to a food product after the primary packaging is opened. Edible films are not meant to replace synthetic packaging materials; instead, they provide the potential as food packagings where traditional synthetic or biodegradable plastics cannot function. For instance, edible films can be used as convenient soluble pouches containing single-servings for products such as instant noodles and soup/seasoning combination. In the food industry, they can be used as ingredient delivery systems for delivering pre-measured ingredients during processing. Edible films also can provide the food processors with a variety of new opportunities for product development and processing. Depends on materials of edible films, they also can be sources of nutritional supplements. Especially, whey proteins have excellent amino acid balance while some edible films resources lack adequate amount of certain amino acids, for example, soy protein is low in methionine and wheat flour is low in lysine$^{(2)}$. Whey proteins have a surplus of the essential amino acid lysine, threonine, methionine and isoleucine. Thus, the idea of using whey protein-based films to individually pack cereal products, which often deficient in these amino acids, become very attractive$^{(3)}$. Whey is a by-product of cheese manufacturing and much of annual production is not utilized$^{(4)}$. Development of edible films from whey protein is one of the ways to recover whey from dairy industry waste. Whey proteins as raw materials of film production can be obtained at inexpensive cost. I hypothesize that it is possible to make whey protein-based edible films with improved moisture barrier properties without significantly altering other properties by producing whey protein/lipid emulsion films and these films will be suitable far food applications. The fellowing are the specific otjectives of this research: 1. Develop whey protein/lipid emulsion edible films and determine their microstructures, barrier (moisture and oxygen) and mechanical (tensile strength and elongation) properties. 2. Study the nature of interactions involved in the formation and stability of the films. 3. Investigate thermal properties, heat sealability, and sealing properties of the films. 4. Demonstrate suitability of their application in foods as packaging materials. Methodologies were developed to produce edible films from whey protein isolate (WPI) and concentrate (WPC), and film-forming procedure was optimized. Lipids, butter fat (BF) and candelilla wax (CW), were added into film-forming solutions to produce whey protein/lipid emulsion edible films. Significant reduction in water vapor and oxygen permeabilities of the films could be achieved upon addition of BF and CW. Mechanical properties were also influenced by the lipid type. Microstructures of the films accounted for the differences in their barrier and mechanical properties. Studies with bond-dissociating agents indicated that disulfide and hydrogen bonds, cooperatively, were the primary forces involved in the formation and stability of whey protein/lipid emulsion films. Contribution of hydrophobic interactions was secondary. Thermal properties of the films were studied using differential scanning calorimetry, and the results were used to optimize heat-sealing conditions for the films. Electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) was used to study the nature of the interfacial interaction of sealed films. All films were heat sealable and showed good seal strengths while the plasticizer type influenced optimum heat-sealing temperatures of the films, 130$^{\circ}$C for sorbitol-plasticized WPI films and 110$^{\circ}$C for glycerol-plasticized WPI films. ESCA spectra showed that the main interactions responsible for the heat-sealed joint of whey protein-based edible films were hydrogen bonds and covalent bonds involving C-0-H and N-C components. Finally, solubility in water, moisture contents, moisture sorption isotherms and sensory attributes (using a trained sensory panel) of the films were determined. Solubility was influenced primarily by the plasticizer in the films, and the higher the plasticizer content, the greater was the solubility of the films in water. Moisture contents of the films showed a strong relationship with moisture sorption isotherm properties of the films. Lower moisture content of the films resulted in lower equilibrium moisture contents at all aw levels. Sensory evaluation of the films revealed that no distinctive odor existed in WPI films. All films tested showed slight sweetness and adhesiveness. Films with lipids were scored as being opaque while films without lipids were scored to be clear. Whey protein/lipid emulsion edible films may be suitable for packaging of powder mix and should be suitable for packaging of non-hygroscopic foods$^{(5,6,7,8,)}$.

잭업 드릴링 리그 (Jack-up drilling rigs)는 해양자원개발 분야 중 석유 및 가스 탐사 산업에서 널리 사용되는 대표적인 해양구조물이다. 이러한 잭업 구조물은 대체로 얕은 수심에서 사용하도록 설계되었지만 에너지 산업의 추세로 대수심 및 가혹한 환경 조건에서도 사용이 가능한 설계가 요구되고 있다. 이러한 잭업구조물의 운영환경 확장에 따라서 과도한 설계를 최소화하고 신뢰성 반영된 설계법이 요구되었다. 기존의 해양구조물 산업에서 잭업 구조물의 설계법은 사용(혹은 허용)응력 설계 (WSD: Working (or Allowable) Stress Design) 방법을 사용하여 설계가 되고 있었다. 이러한 설치환경변화에 따라서 충분한 신뢰성을 확보가 가능한 하중 및 저항계수 (LRFD: Load and Resistance Factored Design) 방법을 최근 개발되었고 규정화가 되었다. LRFD 방법은 통계적 기반으로 한 한계상태설계 개념으로 잭업구조물의 구성구조부재의 하중과 전산수치해석을 이용한 강도의 불확성을 하중 및 저항 계수로 표현하는 설계법이다. 개발된 LRFD 방법은 실제 잭업구조물 설계의 적합성 판단을 위하여 기존의 WSD 방법과의 정량적인 비교 분석이 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구는 기존의 WSD와 LRFD 방법으로 이용하여 실 잭업 구조물의 레그 구조를 대상으로 상용유한요소해석코드를 이용하여 정량적인 UC (Unity Check)값을 기반으로 비교 분석하였다. 분석된 결과로 다양한 환경하중조건 하에서 LRFD 방법을 사용하여 잭업구조물의 레그(Leg) 설계에서 상당히 합리적인 UC 값을 가지고 기존 대표적인 WSD기법 중에 하나인 API-RP 코드 대비 약 31 % 차이가 분석되었다. 따라서 LRFD 설계 방법이 WSD 방법에 비해 구조 최적화 및 합리적인 설계에 더 유리하다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

I형 PSC 거더에 새로운 설계 개념을 도입하여 낮은 형고의 장경간 거더를 설계하고, 실험을 통해서 적용성을 점검하였다. 본 연구에서 제안하는 거더는 복부에 개구부를 도입한 분절형 중공 프리캐스트 프리스트레스트 콘크리트 거더(HWPC거더, Holed Web Prestressed Concrete girders)이다. 이 거더의 설계에는 세 가지 설계 개념이 종합적으로 적용되었다. 먼저 장경간의 거더를 공장에서 프리캐스트로 타설하여 양생을 마친 후에 현장으로 운반하는 방법을 채택하여 현장에서 거더를 제작하는 경우보다 콘크리트의 품질 관리가 용이하게 하여 고강도 및 고성능 콘크리트를 적용하는 것이 가능하게 하였다. 또한 거더를 분절화하여 제작하여 국내의 도로 여건에서도 장경간 거더를 공장에서 현장으로 이동시킬 수 있게 하였다. 이로써 현장에서의 작업 기간도 단축시킬 수 있다. 두 번째로 거더의 복부에 원형의 개구부를 도입하여, 단부 정착장치의 반을 이 개구부 내에 이동하여 분산 배치하여, 분절 거더의 조립에 사용하였다. 개구부에 정착부를 분산 배치하면 단부에 설치되는 정착장치가 줄어들게 되므로 단부에 작용하는 응력이 줄어들게 된다. 아울러 자연스레 단부에 도입되는 휨모멘트는 줄어들고, 중앙부에 큰 휨모멘트가 도입되므로 외력으로 인한 휨모멘트 분포에 더 가까운 형상의 부모멘트를 거더에 도입할 수 있다. 거더에 개구부를 도입하면 거더 자중도 줄어든다. 그리고, 세째로 단부에 설치되는 정착구의 수가 줄기 때문에 단부에서는 다이아프램을 제거하고도 정착이 가능하다. 이렇게 거더의 전 단면에 걸쳐서 같은 폭의 복부폭을 사용하면 거더 제작을 자동화 하는데도 도움이 될 것이다. HWPC거더의 설계 기법을 검증하고, 다단계 긴장의 효과 및 실제교량에 적용할 때 발생할 수 있는 문제점을 고찰하기 위하여 실물 실험을 수행하였다. 길이 50 m, 높이 2 m인 거더 실험체를 분절형과 일체형으로 각각 1개씩 제작하여 휨실험을 수행하고, 결과를 비교하여 분석하였다. 분절형 거더와 일체형 거더는 처짐 및 균열생성 형상에서 근본적으로 유사하였다. 휨 강도, 처짐, 활하중 처짐제한 규정 등이 특정 설계기준을 만족하도록 설계하는 것이 가능하였다.

The aims of this study were to understand and to predict the determinent factors affecting the exercise behaviors and physical fitness by testing the Pender's revised health promotion model, and to help the patients with rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis perform the continous exercise program, and to help them maximize the physical effect such as muscle strength, endurance, and functional status and mental effects including self efficacy and quality of life, and improve the physical and mental well being, and to provide a basis for the nursing intervention strategies. Of the selected variables in this study, the endogenous variables included the physical fitness, exercise score, exercise participation, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action to exercise, activity-related affect(depression) and perceived self-efficacy, interpersonal influences(family support), situational factors(duration of arthritis, fatigue) and the exogenous variables included personal sociocultural factor(education level), personal biologic factor(body mass index), personal psychologic factor(perceived health status) and prior related behavior factors(previous participation in exercise, life-style). We analyzed the clinical records of 208 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and degenerative arthritis who visited the outpatient clinics at H university hospital in Seoul. Data were composed of self reported qustionnaire and good of fitness score which were obtained by padalling the ergometer of bicycle for 9 minutes. SPSS Win 8.0 and Window LISREL 8.12a were used for statistical analysis. Of 75 hypothetical paths that influence on physical fitness, exercise participation, exercise score, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action to exercise, activity-related affect(depression) and perceived self-efficacy, interpersonal influences(family support), situational factors(duration of arthritis, fatigue), 40 were supported. The physical fitness was directly influenced by life-style, perceived health status, education level, family support, fatigue, which explained 12% of physical fitness. The exercise participation were directly influenced by life-style, education level, past exercise behavior, perceived benefits of action, perceived barriers of action, depression and duration of arthritis, which explained 47% of exercise participation. Exercise score were directly affected by perceived self efficacy. BMI, life-style, past exercise behavior, perceived benefits of action, family support, perceived health status. perceived barriers of action, and fatigue, which explained 70%. Perceived benefits of action was directly influenced by BMI, life-style, which explained 39%. Perceived barriers of action were directly influeced by past exercise behavior, perceived health status, which explained 7%. Perceived self efficacy were directly influeced by level of education, perceived health status, life-style, which explained 57%. Depression were directly influeced by past exercise behavior, BMI, life-style, which explained 27%. Family support were directly influeced by life-style, perceived health status, which explained 29%. Fatigue were directly influeced by BMI, life-style, perceived health status. which explained 41%. Duration of arthritis were directly influeced by life-style, past exercise behavior, BMI, which explained 6%. In conclusion, important variables for physical fitness were life-style, and variable affecting exercise participation were life-style. Perceived self-efficacy of exercise was a significant predictor of exercise score. BMI, Life-style, perceived benefits of action, family support, past exercise behavior showed direct effects on perceived self-efficacy. Therefore, disease related factor should be minimized for physical performance and well being in nursing intervention for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and plans to promote and continue exercise should be seeked to reduce disability. In addition, Exercise program should be planned and performed by the exact evaluation of exercise according to the ability of the patients and the contents to improve the importance of exercise and self efficacy in self control program, dedicated educational program should be involved. This study suggest that the methods to reduce the disease related factors, the importance of daily life-style, recognition of benefit of exercise, and educational program to promote self efficacy should be considered in the exercise behavior promotion and nursing intervention for continous performance. The significance of this study is also thought to provide patients with chronic arthritis the specific data for maximal physical and mental well being through exercise, chronic therapeutic procedure, daily adaptation and confrontation in nursing intervention.

Interleukin-4 receptor (IL-4R) gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are implicated in cancer development. However, results from the published reports have remained inconclusive. The objective of this study was to conduct a meta-analysis investigating the association between polymorphisms in IL-4R gene and cancer risk. Pubmed, EMBASE and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) were searched for case-control studies published up to October 30, 2012 that investigated IL-4R polymorphisms and cancer risk. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the strength of any associations. Three IL-4R polymorphisms (Q576R, rs1801275; I75V, rs1805010; S503P, rs1805015) in 21 case-control studies were analyzed. Our meta-analysis indicated that these three polymorphisms are not associated with cancer risk when all studies were pooled together. In the subgroup analysis by tumor site, the results showed that Q576R G allele carriers were associated with a significantly decreased cervical cancer risk (recessive model: OR = 0.77, 95%CI = 0.60-0.98; homozygote comparison: OR = 0.76, 95%CI = 0.58-0.98). I75V G allele carriers were associated with a decreased risk of renal cancer (dominant model = 0.71, 95%CI = 0.57-0.89, heterozygote comparison: OR = 0.69, 95%CI = 0.55-0.87). When stratified by ethnicity, Q576R G allele carriers were associated with a decreased cancer risk in Caucasians (dominant model: OR = 0.90, 95%CI = 0.83-0.98; heterozygote comparison: OR = 0.89, 95%CI = 0.82-0.98). I75V G allele carriers were associated with a decreased cancer risk in Asians (heterozygote comparison: OR = 0.76, 95%CI = 0.62-0.94). S503P C allele carriers were also associated with a decreased cancer risk in Asians (CC VS TT: OR = 0.29, 95%CI = 0.08-0.99). Our results suggest that Q576R, I75V and S503P may be associated with a decreased cancer risk for certain types of cancers and in some specific ethnic groups. Future case-control studies with large sample size are needed to evaluate these associations in detail.

Mortality rate and causes of death are regarded as an index of strength as well as level of development of a country. However, there is no accurate data for the causes of death in Korea due to lack of systematic vital data collection system. The objective of this study was to define the causes of death of the school teachers, its changing pattern, cause-specific mortality rate, and geographic variation. The study population included all of the teachers in primary school, middle and high schools, and college who joined in Korean Teachers' Union between 1968 and 1985 that provided a total of 1,972, 069 person-years to observe (1,384,911 man-years, 587,158 woman-years). There were 3,678 deaths in this period (3,377 males, 301 females). The most common cause of death was neoplasm which was followed by the diseases of circulatory system. The proportion of death of neoplasm was 1.5 times higher than that of the general population. Causes of death were classified into 5 major groups (neoplasm, diseases of circulatory system, accidents and poisoning, diseases of liver, and all others). The mortality rates of diseases of circulatory system and all others for general population were 4 to S times higher than those for the teachers. However, mortality rates of neoplasm and diseases of liver were only about 2 times higher than those for teachers. Mortality rate of liver cancer for teachers was higher than gastric cancer mortality rate which is the reverse in general population. The crude death rate was 2.12 per 1,000 person-years for male and 1.00 for female which is one-third of the crude death rate of general population. Crude death rate of study population was higher in rural area than in urban area. However, mortality rate of neoplasm for male was higher in urban area than in rural area while mortality rates of all other causes were higher in rural area. For female, mortality rates of neoplasm and diseases of circulatory system were higher in urban area and the rates for all other causes were higher in rural area. Crude death rate was lowest in Gyeongin area and highest in Yeongnam area. The mortality of neoplasm for male accounted the highest proportion of all death in Gyeongin, Chungcheong and Yeoungnam areas while the mortality of neoplasm and mortality of circulatory system accounted the same proportion in Jeonra area. For female, the mortality of disease of circulatory system accounted the highest proportion in Gyeongin and Yeoungnam and Jeonra areas. Proportion of death due to accidents and poisoning was high in Chungcheong area and death due to all other causes was high in Yeoungnam area. The most common cause of death for male by city and province was neoplasm in Seoul, Busan, Daegu, Gyeonggi, Chungnam, Chungbuk, Gyeongnam and Gyeongbuk. Diseases of circulatory system was the leading cause of death in the rest of city and provinces. The leading cause of death for female was diseases of circulatory system in Seoul, Incheon, Chungbuk, Chungnam, and Gyeongbuk, neoplasm in Busan, and accident and poisons in all other cities and provinces. The mortality rates of male were above 2 per 1,000 person-years in Jeju, Gyeongbuk, Gyeongnam, Daegu, and Chungbuk, and it was below 1.5/l,000 in Seoul, Incheon and Gyeonggi. The mortality rate of female was above 1.2/1,000 person-years in Gyeongnam and Incheon while it was below 0.5/l,000 in Daegu, Geonggi Chungbuk and Jeju. The leading cause for male by school of employment was neoplasm in all levels of school with a remarkably higher rate in the professors of college. Leading cause of death for female was disease of circulatory system in primary schools, high schools and college but neoplasm in middle schools. There was no death due to liver diseases in middle and high school teachers and college professors and no death due to all other category in high school teachers and college professors, in females. High school teachers and the highest mortality rate and college professors showed the lowest mortality rate. Temporal trend of mortality was examined in three periods; period I ($1968{\sim}1974$), period II ($1975{\sim}1979$), and period III ($1980{\sim}1985$). The leading cause of death for male was diseases of circulatory system in period I and II but neoplasm in period III. Such trend of decreasing diseases of circulatory system and increasing neoplasm was observed in female. Overall mortality rate was decreased over the 3 periods. The mortality rates of diseases of circulatory system, liver disease and all others were decreased in male but the mortality rates of neoplasm and accident and posions was increased. Female showed a similar trend to male but the mortality rate of liver diseases was increased. Mortality rates of diseases of circulatory system, neoplasm and liver diseases increased with age of teachers up to 50 years of age but decreased in 60 years of age. Mean age at death due to each cause was higher in male than female by $4{\sim}10$ years. However, the mean age at death of the teachers was $2{\sim}5$ years lower than that of the general population in all causes of death and the sex difference in the mean a2e at death was smaller ($2{\sim}3$ years) in general population. In sex ratio of mortality, male was higher than female in almost all diseases except suicide and maintained a high ratio. The general population showed universally high ratio in male like teachers, and more or less did regular patterns in mortality with ratio smaller.

방해석 표면에 의한 C$d^{2+}$의 흡착연구를 하였다. 흡착실험에서 사용한 Cd의 농도는 $10^{-8}$ 로서 CdCO$_3$(s)의 침전농도 보다 낮은 농도를 유지하도록 조절하였다. NaClO$_4$를 전해질로 사용하여 이온농도를 달리 한 실험 결과 C$d^{2+}$의 흡착은 용액의 이온세기와는 무관한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 C$d^{2+}$의 방해석 표면 흡착이 특징적인 성질을 갖고 inner sphere surface complex를 형성한다는 것을 암시한다. 흡착반응은 초기의 매우 빠른 흡착시기와 후기의 지속적인 느린 흡착시기의 2단계로 구분되었다. 특히, 후기의 느린 흡착시기에는 약 145시간 경과 후 최대정상상태 (steady state maximum)에 도달하였다. 본 연구에서 사용한 C$d^{2+}$의 농도가 낮아 방해석 표면에 CdCO$_3$(s)의 침전 형성에 의한 반응은 고려되지 않았다. 방해석 표면으로부터 C$d^{2+}$의 탈착반응은 일정시간의 흡착 반응이 경과된 후 초기 흡착 실험 시와 같은 농도의 과포화 용액을 사용하여 C$d^{2+}$을 흡착한 방해석이 새로운 용액에 재 평형을 이루도록 반응을 유도하였다. 일반적으로 탈착실험에서는 새로운 과포화용액에 방해석을 넣자마자 매우 빠른 탈착반응을 보여준다. 그 이후는 2가지의 다른 경향성을 보여주며 새로운 평형에 도달하는 것으로 나타난다. 초기의 빠른 탈착반응 시기 뒤 느린 흡착반응이 지속적으로 일어나 일정 시간 경과 후 다시 평형을 이루거나, 느린 탈착반응이 계속적으로 지속되어 일정 시간 경과 후 새로운 평형을 이루는 2가지로 나타났다. 이러한 부분적으로 비가역적인 흡착 반응과 탈착반응은 실제 자연계에서 C$d^{2+}$의 유동성을 결정짓는 매우 중요한 인자로 작용할 것으로 생각된다. 흡착 반응 및 탈착반응의 평형상수 값은 이들 반응이 서로 동일한 기작에 의하여 조절됨을 보여주었다.

형질 전환 동물 생산에는 조직 및 시기 특이적 발현 조절이 가능하다는 장점 때문에 유즙 내로 외부 유전자를 발현시키는 시스템이 널리 이용되고 있다. 유전자 발현 즉, 단백질 생산은 프로모터의 강도뿐만 아니라 mRNA의 안정성에 의해서도 조절된다. 특히, polyadenylation에 의한 poly A의 길이는 in vivo와 올 in vitro에서 mRNA 안정성 및 목적 유전자의 번역효율에 영향을 준다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 mRNA 안정성이 목적 유전자의 발현에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위해 3'-UTR 염기 서열을 분석하였다. 이 3'-untranslated region(UTR) 내의 poly A signal을 기준으로 putative cytoplasmic polyadenylation element(CPE) 부위와 downstream elements(DSE: U-rich, G-rich, GU-rich)의 염기 서열을 분석하고, 각각의 element를 기준으로 15 종의 luciferase reporter vector를 제작하여, 생쥐 유선 세포주(HC11)와 돼지 유선 세포주(PMGC)에 각각 transfection시킨 후 48시간 동안 배양하고 luciferase 발현량을 분석하였다. PMGC의 경우, luciferase의 발현은 exon 9의 CPE 2,3 및 DSE 1을 포함한 #6 construct에서 유의적으로 높은 발현량을 보였으며, exon 9의 CPE 2, 3과 DSE를 모두 포함하고 있는 #11 construct에서도 유의적으로 높은 발현량을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 형질 전환 돼지 생산에 있어 #6 및 11 construct의 사용은 목적의 유전자를 효과적으로 발현시키는데 기여할 것으로 사료된다.
