This essay critically analyses the legacy of Eisenstadt's The Political Systems of Empires for the comparative political history of pre-industrial empires. It argues that Eisenstadt has given us a rich toolkit to conceptualize the formation, maintenance, and dissolution of empires by theorizing the structural relationships between social groups in large-scale polities and among such polities, and by analysing global patterns of development in the distribution of the sources of social power. The Political Systems of Empires provides an inventory of key questions and dynamics that a comparative history of power relationships in empires cannot ignore. This essay, furthermore, discusses three methodological problems in Eisenstadt's work which have had a significant impact on comparative empire studies between the 1980s and the 2000s. The essay argues that certain shared features of comparative studies of pre-industrial empires help perpetuate Eurocentric analyses: the foregrounding of select empires and periods as ideal types (typicality), the focus on macro-historical structures and dynamics without the integration of social relationships and actions in historical conjunctures (the lack of scalability), and the search for convergence and divergence. These features need to be overcome to make Eisenstadt's legacy viable for comparative political history.

In order to make a supermicrofiber fabric with PET/co-PET sea-island type filament fiber, the optimum conditions of dissolution of co-PET composite filament fiber was examined. The data set was made at various organic acid concentration and steam temperature with treated time as a main variable. At the same time, the microstructure changes by organic acid treatment of sea-island type PET supermicrofibers were monitored by thermal analysis morphology, DSC thermgrams and SEM images. Weight reduction behavior of supermicrofibers by caustic treatment was investigated in a comparative method. The termination of dissolution was also confirmed using DSC thermgrams and SEM images.

Using rlFN-$\alpha$ and rhGH as the model proteins, the refolding performances of the published processes were evaluated and compared. Key engineering parameters such as the type of denaturant and this concentration, protein concentration in the refolding buffer, and pH and ionic strength of the buffer were experimentally investigated. Furthermore, the role of a co-solvent of surfactant type in aggregation reduction was also studied. Of the denaturants tested (8M urea, 6M guanidine HCI, 0.5% SDS), SDS at alkaline pH (9.5) and ambient temperature gave the highest recovery yield. The SDS process was effective in the refolding of observed where dissolution proceeded better under lower strength (10 mM) but aggregation was suppressed under higher strength (>50 mM.) When PEG-4000 and/or Tween were added as co-solvent or refolding-enhancing additive, 1.6-2 times higher yield was realized. The‘masking’of the hyrophobic patches located on the surface of the protein with the surfactant molecules was believed to be responsible for the considerable reduction in aggregation during refolding.

To overcome the solubility of poorly water-soluble drug, the formation of solid dispersion using a spray-dryer with polymeric material, that can potentially enhance the dissolution rate extend of drug absorption was considered in this study. $Eudragit^{(R)}$ E100 as carrier for solid dispersion is acrylate copolymer that soluble in acidic buffer solutions (below pH 5.0). It was used to increase dissolution of atorvastatin calcium as a water-insoluble drug in acidic environments. In this study, a spray-dryer was used to prepare solid dispersion of atorvastatin calcium and $Eudragit^{(R)}$ E100 for purpose of improving the solubility of drug. Atorvastatin calcium and $Eudragit^{(R)}$ E100 were dissolved in ethanol and spray-dryed. DSC and XRD were used to analyze the crystallinity of the sample. It was found that atorvastatin calcium is amorphous in the $Eudragit^{(R)}$ E100 solid dispersion. FT-IR was used to analyze the salt formation by interaction between atorvastatin calcium and $Eudragit^{(R)}$ E100. Comparative dissolution study exhibited better dissolution characteristics than the commercial drug ($Lipitor^{(R)}$) as control. The dissolution rate of atorvastatin calcium was markedly increased in solid dispersion system in simulated gastric juice (pH 1.2). This study proposed that this solid dispersion system improved the bioavailability of poorly water-soluble atorvastatin calcium.

The bioequivalence of two carbamazepine preparations was conducted. The in vivo bioequivalence study in 20 healthy male Korean volunteers was designed by using a single dose, randomized, 2-period crossover with a 3-weeks washout period between the doses. Prior to the in vivo study, an in vitro comparative dissolution test was performed by the paddle and basket method as described in the bioequivalence guidance of the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). Based on the similar dissolution pattern between two preparations in the dissolution test, the two formulations are demonstrated to be pharmaceutically equivalent. In addition, in vivo bioequivalence test was used to reconfirm the in vitro dissolution results. In the in vivo bioequivalence study, the plasma concentrations of carbamazepine up to 144 h after the administration were determined using a validated HPLC method with UV detection and the bioequivalence between the two drug products was assessed by statistical analysis of the log transformed mean ratios of $C_{max}$, $AUC_{0-t}$ and $AUC_{0-\infty}$. The mean maximum concentration ($C_{max}$) of the test and reference were found to be $1467.0{\pm}335.8\;ng/mL$ and $1465.9{\pm}310.3\;ng/mL$, respectively. The 90% confidence intervals (C.I.) of $C_{max}$ were in the range from 0.95 to 1.05. As for the $AUC_{0-t}$ and $AUC_{0-\infty}$, test values were $110027.1{\pm}27786.4\;ng/mL{\cdpt}h$, $128807.0{\pm}34563.2\;ng/mL{\cdot}h$ and $105473.6{\pm}26496.2\;ng/mL{\cdot}h$, $125448.5{\pm}35975.5\;ng/mL{\cdot}h$, respectively. The 90% C.I. of $AUC_{0-t}$ were 0.97 to 1.10 and of $AUC_{0-\infty}$, 0.99 to 1.09 and thus were within the log 0.8-log 1.25 interval proposed by the KFDA. A two-way ANOVA showed no significant difference between the two formulations. Based on these statistical analysis, it was concluded that the test formulation is bioequivalent to the reference.

국내 화강암질암내 지하수와의 대수층 지질 및 온도에 따른 지구화학적 특징 차이를 살펴보기 위하여 변성퇴적암류내 지하수와 온천수를 택하였다. 변성퇴적암류를 대수층으로 하는 지하수 내의 $Na^+$ 함량은 화강암질암에 비하여 통계적으로 낮다. 또한 화강암질암의 지하수와는 달리 변성퇴적암류의 지하수는 심부에서도 방해석의 거동에 의해 지하수의 화학조성이 조절됨으로써 $Ca^{2+]$-${HCO_3}^-$ 유형에 속한다. 이는 변성퇴적암류의 대수층 암석에 사장석의 함유량이 극히 적은 것에 기인한다. 요인분석 결과, 변성퇴적암류의100~300 m 심도의 지하수는 1) 방해석 및 Mg-탄산염암의 용해, 2) 백운모의 용해에 의하여 kaolinite가 illite로 전환되는 반응, 3) 지표에서 유입된 형태로 존재하는 $Na^+$ 등의 세 가지 요인으로 압축된다. 화강암질암과 변성퇴적암류에 대하여 도출된 판별함수는 약 81.8%의 판별력을 보였으며 이 판별식에 사장석이 주구성광물로 존재하는 화산암질 지하수를 적용한 결과 모두 화강암질암 그룹에 속하였다. 한편 온천수는 상대적으로 심도가 낮음에도 불구하고 화강암질암의 심부지하수와 유사한 화학적 특징을 보임으로써 고온으로 인해 주변 광물과의 반응이 활성화되었음을 나타낸다.

Purpose: This study was a grounded theory research aimed at generating a substantive theory that accounts for the explanatory social processes in which immigrant Korean single-mother families were engaged in the United States. Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted with 15 immigrant Korean single mothers who were living with children under 18 years of age at the time of the interviews. Data collection guided by theoretical sampling and concurrent constant comparative analysis of the transcribed data was conducted to identify the core social process. Results: The emerged core social process was "living for the children," which represented the driving process by which these women made transition to their new lives as single-mother families. The major task throughout the entire transition was re-creating their families. The women's transition involved practical and psychological transitions. The practical transition involved three stages: assuring family survival, struggling between the father role and the mother role, and stabilizing. The psychological transition involved becoming strong and settling in with a new supportive network. Conclusion: Study results added to the literature by elaborating the women's emphasis on maternal identity and the resilience-provoking nature of the women's transitions.
