The prevalence of obesity has noticeably increased worldwide over several decades with various complication. Even though anti-obesity drug treatments have been spotlighted by resulting in effective mean weight losses, its adverse effects cannot be overlooked. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of multi-frequency whole body vibration, one of the mechanical stimulus, as a countermeasure against obesity. Thirty-two-6-week-old C57BL/6J male mice were equally assigned to four groups: the Control group (CON, n = 8), the Sham group (Sham, n = 8), the sham with single frequency whole body vibration (S+V, n = 8), and the sham with multi frequency whole body vibration (S+MV, n = 8). After 4 weeks, morphologic changes in the adipose tissue were evaluated from three-dimensional images using in vivo micro-computed tomography. At 4 weeks, the volume of the abdominal adipose tissue, which had the highest value in Sham group, noticeably reduced in S+MV group compared to it in S+V group. These results implied that the accumulation of abdominal adipose tissue can be effectively reduced through applying multi-frequency whole body vibration.

나프탈렌을 측쇄로 갖는 새로운 폴리벤즈이미다졸 단량체을 합성하고, 이 단량체를 친핵치환반응에 의해 중합하였다. 4-Methoxy-N-naphthyl-1,2-phenylenediamine과 4-fluoro-benzoyl chloride의 반응으로 N-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-4-methoxy-N'-naphthyl-1,2-phenyl-enediamine이 합성되었고 이로부터 고리화반응 및 demethylation에 의해 단량체인 2-(4-fluoro-benzoyl)-5-hydroxy-1-naphthylbenzimidazole이 얻어졌다. 중합반응은 potassium carbonate를 함유하는 N-cyclohexyl-2-pyrrolidinone (CHP)에서 행해졌다. 생성된 폴리벤즈이미다졸은 N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP)에 용해되었고 0.38 dL/g (NMP at $30^{\circ}C$)의 대수 점도를 가졌다. 유리전이온도($T_g$)는 $270^{\circ}C$였고 열중량분석에서 5% 중량감소를 보이는 온도는 질소분위기에서는 $550^{\circ}C$, 공기중에서는 $540^{\circ}C$였다.

본 논문에서는 hybrid기법을 이용하여 무궁화 위성의 상향 주파수인 14.0-14.5 GHz에서 동작하는 위성 지구국용 8W 전력증폭기를 설계.제작하였다. 제작의 간편성 때문에 전체 전력 증폭기를 크게 구동 증폭부와 전력 증폭부의 두 부분으로 나누어 설계.제작하였다 또 각 부에 DC 전원 공급을 위 한 바이어스 회로부를 같은 하우정내에 장착하여 무게 및 부피를 최소화하였다 제작된 전력 증폭기는 500 MHz대역폭 내에서 소신호 이득이 $26\pm1dB$, 입.출력 반사손실이 각각 7dB와 12dB이상이었다. 14 GHz, 14.25 GHz와 14.5 GHz 주파수에 대해 ldB 압축접의 출력전력은 39.0-39.2 dBm으로서 설계시 목표로 했던 출력전력 8W를 상회하였다, 본 논문에서 제시한 SSPA 제작기법은 각종 radar 및 SCPC용 고출력 증폭기 설계 및 제작에도 적용할 수 있다.

Twelve swamp buffaloes and Brahman cattle heifers (6 animals each) were randomly assigned to two treatments, control (grazing only) and supplementation of cassava hay (CH) at 1-kg dry matter per head per day (DM/hd/d), in a $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement according to a cross-over design. The cassava hay contained a high level of protein (19.5% of DM) and a strategic amount of condensed tannins (4.0% of DM). As a result it was revealed that supplementation of CH at 1-kg DM/hd/d significantly (p<0.05) improved the nutrition of both swamp buffaloes and Brahman cattle in terms of DM, organic matter (OM), protein and energy intake and digestibility, ruminal NH3-N and rumen ecology. Supplementation significantly (p<0.05) reduced weight losses in both species and improved the health, in terms of reduced number of parasite eggs in feces (p<0.05), of both buffaloes and cattle. There tended to be a difference in term of response to CH between the two species. The DM, OM, protein intake and digestibility and total digestible energy intake tended to be higher for buffaloes as compared to cattle. Moreover, the percentage reduction of parasite eggs tended to be higher for buffaloes as compared to cattle (57.6 and 45.0%, respectively). However, there were no significant interactions between species and treatments.

최근 DC-DC 초퍼의 소형경량화 및 저소음화를 위해서 초퍼에 사용한 전력용 반도체 스위치의 스위칭 주파수를 증대시키고 있다. 이에 따른 스위칭 손실의 증대는 초퍼의 효율을 상당히 감소시키는 요인으로 주어진다. 이를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 초퍼에 사용한 반도체 스위치의 턴-온, 턴-오프를 소프트 스위칭(영전류 또는 영전압 스위칭)으로 동작시켜 스위칭 손실을 최소화하는 새로운 고효율의 DC-DC 초퍼를 제안한다. 제안한 초퍼의 소프트 스위칭 동작은 스위치의 동작 시점에 부분공진 회로가 형성되어 인덕터의 전류와 커패시터의 전압이 영으로 될 때 스위치를 동작시키는 부분공진 기법이 적용된다. 또한 제안한 초퍼에 적용된 부분공진 회로는 승압용으로 사용한 인덕터와 스너버 커패시터에 의해 설계되어 초퍼의 회로 토폴로지가 간단하다. 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션과 실험결과를 통해 제안한 DC-DC 초퍼의 타당성이 입증된다.

Leafy lettuce(Lactuca sativa L.) is one of the most important vegetable crops in Korea, cultivated throughout the year in greenhouses. During the autumn of 2005, powdery mildew of lettuce that is a new disease caused by Podosphaera fusca occurred in several plantings grown in plastic houses near Suwon in central Korea. Further survey on commercial fields of the plant in central and southern Korea revealed its widespread occurrence and severe losses. Infections occur on upper part of mature leaves often cause leaf distortions, withering, and reduced vigor and growth. Among 184 greenhouses surveyed 121 were infested by the disease and 52 showed over 10% infection rate. Yields were greatly reduced by the disease reaching only 59% compared to healthy plants. About 60% leaves of infected plant were not marketable and fresh weight of the leaves was 73.6% compared to healthy leaves. Total yield of the greenhouses infested by the disease ranged from $100{\sim}140kg$, while it was 260 kg in a non-infested greenhouse at one time harvest. Since the disease represents a threat to safe cultivation of leafy lettuce in Korea, environmentally-friend control strategies should be urgently developed.

Horses that have been retired from racing or imported from abroad are retired as broodmares. Whether at private farms or government institutes they are bred to stallions with the aim of improving fertility and enhancing the breed. Accidental deaths as a result of surgical or obstetrical complications lead to decreased productivity and economic losses to the horse breeding industry. Intussusception of the uterine horn is a frequent complication of the equine and bovine species, but rarely seen in other species. The most common causes are thought to be tearing of the placenta which is suspended from the uterus and ovaries and the weight of the placenta. Expulsion of the embryonic membranes is also thought to be a contributing factor. If symptoms are minor and treatment affected quickly, the problem will likely resolve itself. In more severe cases the uterus will prolapse completely. This case study was observed in a Thoroughbred broodmare. After treatment of dystocia, the broodmare could not stand up. She became dehydrated, collapsed, suffered colic and was euthanised. In this case was observed serious swelling vulva and perineal region by morphology, and there was seldom ascites and unusual view in thoracic and abdominal cavity after opening abdomen. However, intussusception of uterine horn involuted left uterine horn into the uterine body was observed.

Simultaneous distillation-extration method에 의해 국내에서 인공재배되고 있는 여름 느타리 버섯(Pleurotus sajor-caju)을 실온과 냉장하에서 저장하면서 휘발성 향기성분을 분리한 다음 GC-MS 및 GC에 의한 표준품과의 머무름시간 비교에 의해 향기성분의 변화를 검토하여 보았다. 총 aroma contentrates의 함량은 냉장 저장시는 큰차이를 보이지 않았으나 실온 저장시는 큰 감소의 경향을 보였다. 확인된 38종의 휘발성 화합물중 실온 저장시 ${\delta}-decalactone$만 약간증가하였으나 기타의 성분들은 현저히 감소한 반면 냉장 저장시는 2-methyl butanal, 1-octen-3-ol, cis,cis-1,5-octadien-3-ol, pentadecanoic acid등은 감소추세를 보였지만 3-octanone, 1-octen-3-one, 3-octanol, 5-undecanol등은 오히려 증가되는 경향을 보였다. 또한 중량 감소와 관능적 특성은 실온 저장시 냉장 저장보다 심한 변화를 보였다.

전력변환 시스템은 소형화, 경량화, 저잡음화를 실현하기 위하여 스위칭 주파수가 증대되어야 한다. 하지만 컨버터의 스위치들은 스위칭 스트레스와 많은 스위칭 전력손실을 동반한다. 이들 때문에 전력 시스템은 낮은 효율을 가져온다. 본 논문에서는 부분공진 모드에 의해 고효율의 승압형 단상 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안된 회로의 소자들은 소프트 스위칭으로 동작되며 이것의 제어기술은 일정 듀티 싸이클에서 동작되도록 스위치군을 간략화 하였다. 부분공진 회로는 승강압에 사용되는 인덕터와 무손실 스너버의 콘덴서를 사용한다. 또한, 이 회로는 종래의 회로가 가지는 스너버의 손실이 없는 스너버 콘덴서에 축적된 에너지를 입력전원 측으로 회생시킴으로서 효율증대의 장점이 있다. 그 결과 스위칭 손실이 매우 낮고 효율과 시스템 역률이 높게 된다. 제안된 컨버터는 전력용 스위칭 소자들이 사용되는 고출력의 응용분야에 가장 적합하다고 생각된다.

Acetaminophen (AP) is widely used as an over-the-counter analgesic and antipyretic drug. AP-induced hepatotoxicity is a common consequence of AP overdose and may lead to acute liver failure. In this study, we investigated the liver damage in mice using single dose (300 mg/kg) of AP and the possible protective effects of administration (50-200 mg/kg body weight) of Joo-Juk on acetaminophen-induced liver damage in mice. The alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities were determined in the plasma of mice. The effect of Joo-Juk on lipid peroxidation product thiobarbituric reacting substances (TBARS) and some antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, d-aminolevulinate dehydratase ($\sigma$-ALA-D) activities, and gluthathione peroxidase (GPx), were also evaluated in the mouse liver homogenate. AP caused liver damage as evident by statistically significant increased in plasma activities of AST and ALT. There were statistically significant losses in the activities of SOD, catalase, $\sigma$-ALA-D, and GPx and an increase in TBARS in the liver of AP-treated group compared with the control group. However, Joo-Juk was able to counteract these effects. These results suggest that Joo-juk can act as hepato-protectant against AP toxicity and is a good candidate for further evaluation as an effective chemotherapeutic agent.
