Contents of isoflavone, phenolic acids, tocopherol, and anthocyanin in black soybean (Glycine max) were measured by HPLC. To compare antioxidative activities of main black soybean components, antioxidative effects of the same levels of commercial standard components were measured by Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity assay (TEAC). Most effective component was gentisic acid followed by anthocyanin, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, genistein, syringic acid, and daidzein. TEAC assay results revealed genistein in isoflavone, gentisic acid in phenolic acids, p-tocopherol in tocopherol, and anthocyanin showed highest antioxidative and synergistic acitivities, with anthocyanin showing strongest synergy effect.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to evaluate if the Ilizarov external fixation procedure with axial compression can help to obtain fusion across the ankle joint in patients with a high risk of nonunion. Materials and Methods: From January 2006 to December 2015, the study reviewed 17 patients who underwent ankle arthropathy with a high risk of nonunion and who underwent ankle fusion using the Ilizarov external fixator with axial compression and auto bone grafting. After the lateral surface of the ankle joint was exposed through a lateral trans-fibular approach, massive removal of the articular cartilage and excision of any loose or avascular bone were done. With the cortical bone harvested from the pelvis as corticocancellous bone blocks, we inserted the two cortical blocks longitudinally into the anterior and posterior part of the free ankle space from lateral to medial to make the rectangular chamber to fill the cancellous bones. After the Ilizarov external fixator was equipped, we tightened the frame by 5 mm to compress the bone graft space. We accessed the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) AnkleHindfoot score both preoperatively and postoperatively. Results: The average age at the time of operation was 63.4 years (range, 47~78 years). The mean frame time was 17.4 weeks (range, 15~23 weeks). The average follow-up period was 3.7 years (range, 2~6 years). Osseous fusion was obtained in 15 patients (88.2%). There were two stable pseudarthroses among the rheumatoid arthritis patients, and we continued their follow-up. The mean AOFAS AnkleHindfoot score improved from 48.5 to 73.7 points. Conclusion: Ankle arthrodesis using the Ilizarov external fixation with axial compression and auto bone grafting on the ankle arthropathy that had difficult conditions to achieve union is considered one of the useful methods with a correspondingly low incidence of complications.

In the 1990s, when the viewpoint that an ecosystem is a single network within a specific region was adopted, the preservation and management of natural ecosystems was proposed. With regard to Northeast Asia, the expansion of trans-boundary pollution due to rapid development and the swift destruction of the natural environment emphasize the necessity for environmental cooperation. The Northeast Asia region made up of South Korea, North Korea, three northeastern prefectures in China, the Russian far-east, and parts of Mongolia were selected to be analyzed for an ecological network. The significance of this study lies in the development of a methodology for building a Northeast Asian ecological network through the use of satellite images. Regarding the methods of analysis, stable habitats for four priority species were selected to be performed using overlay analysis. The result of the analysis of the ecological networks in the whole Northeast Asia region showed that there were key areas partly dispersed in the Korean Peninsula, but whether the key areas would be maintained in the long term is unknown. As for China, key areas were concentrated in the border areas around the Tumen River and in parts of the three northeastern prefectures. Russia had wide-ranging areas that could function as stable habitats for most species. As a result of the actual conditions of the ecological networks, most of the Northeast Asia region, including the Korean Peninsula, was in poor condition, requiring appropriate measures and their operation as soon as possible. Also, it was revealed that further investigation and research was necessary for border areas that were identified to be key areas.

Purpose : To evaluate the effect of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) on the radiosensitivity of normal human oral keratinocyte (NHOK). Materials and methods: Relative cell survival fraction including SF2 (survival fraction at 2 Gy) was calculated on the basis of colony formation assay. Data were fitted to the linear-quadratic model to establish the survival curve and calculate α and β values. Using flow cytometry at 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 days after exposure to 2 and 10 Gy irradiation, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis were analysed. To understand the molecular mechanism of the radiosensitization of ATRA on NHOK, proteins related with apoptosis and cell cycle arrest were investigated by Western blot analysis. Results: Treatment with ATRA resulted in a significant decrease of SF2 value for NHOK from 0.63 to 0.27, and increased α and β value, indicating that ATRA increased radiosensitivity of NHOK. ATRA increased LDH significantly, but increasing irradiation dose decreased LDH, suggesting that the radiosensitizing effect of ATRA is not directly related with increasing cell necrosis by ATRA. ATRA did not induce appotosis but increased G2 arrest after 10 Gy irradiation, implying that the increased radiosensitivity of NHOK may be due to a decrease in mitosis casued by increasing G2 arrest. ATRA inhibited the reduction of p53 at 3 days after l0Gy irradiation and increased p21 at 1 day after 10 Gy irradiation. Further study is required to determine the precise relationship between this effect and the radiosensitizing effect of A TRA. Conclusion: These results suggested that ATRA increase radiosensitivity by inhibiting mitosis caused by increasing G2 arrest.

Scaled-up production of oil containing diacylglycerol (DAG), so called diacylglycerol-oil, was produced by lipase-catalyzed reaction. Mixture of soybean oil and glyceryl monooleate with 1:2 molar ratio was esterified with Lipozyme RMIM in a batch-type reactor at 55$^{\circ}C$ and 300 rpm during 6 hr. After short-path distillation for removal of monoacylglycerol and free fatty acid as reaction by-products, diacylglycerol-oil mainly consisted of DAG (29 area%) and TAG (71 area%). The major compositional fatty acids in diacylglycerol-oil were oleic (44.36 wt%), and linoleic acids (37.36 wt%). Acid value and iodine value of diacylglycerol-oil were 0.13 and 112.6, respectively. Solid fat content (SFC) of diacylglycerol-oil was observed after differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis in which three melting peaks at -25.0, 0.1, and 11.2$^{\circ}C$ were shown.

Recently, as the down-scailing of field-effect transistor devices continues, Schottky-barrier field-effect transistors (SB-FETs) have attracted much attention as an alternative to conventional MOSFETs. SB-FETs have advantages over conventional devices, such as low parasitic source/drain resistance due to their metallic characteristics, low temperature processing for source/drain formation and physical scalability to the sub-10nm regime. The good scalability of SB-FETs is due to their metallic characteristics of source/drain, which leads to the low resistance and the atomically abrupt junctions at metal (silicide)-silicon interface. Nevertheless, some reports show that SB-FETs suffer from short channel effect (SCE) that would cause severe problems in the sub 20nm regime.[Ouyang et al. IEEE Trans. Electron Devices 53, 8, 1732 (2007)] Because source/drain barriers induce a depletion region, it is possible that the barriers are overlapped in short channel SB-FETs. In order to analyze the SCE of SB-FETs, we carried out systematic studies on the Schottky barrier overlapping in short channel SB-FETs using a SILVACO ATLAS numerical simulator. We have investigated the variation of surface channel band profiles depending on the doping, barrier height and the effective channel length using 2D simulation. Because the source/drain depletion regions start to be overlapped each other in the condition of the $L_{ch}$~80nm with $N_D{\sim}1\times10^{18}cm^{-3}$ and $\phi_{Bn}$ $\approx$ 0.6eV, the band profile varies as the decrease of effective channel length $L_{ch}$. With the $L_{ch}$~80nm as a starting point, the built-in potential of source/drain schottky contacts gradually decreases as the decrease of $L_{ch}$, then the conduction and valence band edges are consequently flattened at $L_{ch}$~5nm. These results may allow us to understand the performance related interdependent parameters in nanoscale SB-FETs such as channel length, the barrier height and channel doping.

In this paper,we propose a new algorithm to perform DCT(Discrete Cosine Transform) withn the area reduced by prdeicting position of quantization coefficients to be zero.This proposed algorithm not only decreases the enoding time and the decoding time by reducing computation amount of FDCT(Forward DCT)and IDCT(Inverse DCT) but also increases comprossion ratio by performing each diffirent horizontal- vereical zig-zag scan assording to the calssified block size for each block on the huffiman coeing.Traditional image coding method performs the samd DCT computation and zig-zag scan over all blocks,however this proposed algorthm reduces FDCT computation time by setting to zero insted of computing DCT for quantization codfficients outside classfified block size on the encoding.Also,the algorithm reduces IDCT computation the by performing IDCT for only dequantization coefficients within calssified block size on the decoding.In addition, the algorithm reduces Run-Length by carrying out horizontal-vertical zig-zag scan approriate to the slassified block chraateristics,thus providing the improverment of the compression ratio,On the on ther hand,this proposed algorithm can be applied to 16*16 block processing in which the compression ratio and the image resolution are optimal but the encoding time and the decoding time take long.Also,the algorithm can be extended to motion image coding requirng real time processing.

This study compared the college students' dietary behavior for processed foods, who will be the main consumers in the future and looked for the measures to understand and establish the right food labeling system by surveying the level of understanding and utilization of food labeling. The data was analysed by SPSS win 17.0 program, and the results are as follows. For the standard of selecting processed foods, the group with high nutrition knowledge considered the reliability of foods as important and the group with low nutrition knowledge considered the products introduced in TV commercial as important. When purchasing processed foods, the group with high nutrition knowledge considered nutrition, taste, price, appearance(shape), and the consumable period more than the group with low nutrition knowledge. For trans fat, the group with high nutrition knowledge learned more about it than the group with low nutrition knowledge. The ratio of confirming food nutrition label was higher in the group with high nutrition knowledge. Regarding the level of confirming individual food labels, the highest level was for milk and dairy products. And there was significant difference for the processed products of meat, cookies, bread and noodles. It was found that the level of confirmation was higher in the group with high nutrition knowledge. And the most important indication for individual food product was the consumable period. To preserve the purchased foods, the group with high nutrition knowledge preserve the foods in line with the description written on the food cover sheet, and this group used to return or exchange the products when they found them spoiled or purchased by mistake. The group with high nutrition knowledge knew more about the nutrition indication than the group with low nutrition knowledge. The necessity of nutrition indication for processed foods and the need of education and PR(Public Relation) were acknowledged higher in the group with high nutrition knowledge. For the effect of nutrition indication, it showed that the group with high nutrition knowledge thought it would improve the quality and the group with low nutrition knowledge thought it would be helpful when comparing the product with others. The group with high nutrition knowledge showed higher understanding level about nutrition indication than the group with low nutrition knowledge.

Hairless mice (Skh:HR-1) exposed to single doses (0.5, 1.0 and 3. OMED) of UV-B radiation were displayed remarkable changes of barrier function and surface morphology. Trans- epidermal water loss (TEWL) as an index of barrier function was measured by evaporimeter, and wrinkle density (WD) as an index of morphological alteration was measured by image analyzer. Significant changes of TEWL were not observed in the control and 0. SMED group, but 1.OMED and 3. OMED groups noted significant difference. TEWL of 3. OMED group was rapidly increased to the 3rd day and decreased until the 14th day when it reached nearly to normal level, Time-courses of TBWL for 1. OMEB and 3. OMED groups displayed similar pattern, but different only in the magnitude. WD were significantly decreased during the 3rd-5th day in all of the irradiated groups and then increased during the last period to the 14th day, but did not recover the normal level at the 14th day. Time-courses of WD for all groups exhibited similarity, and were entirely dependent on the exposed doses. We also observed histological changes which included hyperplasia, sunburn cell (SBC) formation, accumulation of polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMNs), and loss of collagen of UVB- exposed hairless mouse skin. Changes of TEWL and WD are helpful in understanding of epidermal and dermal damages by single exposure of UVB.
