O-(3-[$^{18}$F]Fluoropropyl)-L-tyrosine (L-[$^{18}$F]FPT) was synthesized by nucleophilic radiofluorination followed by acidic hydrolysis of protective groups and evaluated with 9 L tumor bearing rat. L-[$^{18}$F]FPT is an homologue of O-(2-[$^{18}$F]fluoroethyl)-L-tyrosine (L-[$^{18}$F]FET) which recently is studied as a tracer for tumor imaging using positron emission tomography (PET). [$^{18}$F]FPT was directly prepared from the precursor of O-(3-ptoluenesulfonyloxypropyl)- N-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-L-tyrosine methyl ester. FPT-PET image was obtained at 60 min in 9 L tumor bearing rats. The radiochemical yield of [$^{18}$F]FPT was 0-45% (decay corrected) and the radiochemical purity was more than 95% after HPLC purification. The total time elapsed for the synthesis of [$^{18}$F]FPT was 100 min from EOB (End-of-bombardment). A comparison of uptake studies between [$^{18}$F]FPT and [$^{18}$F]FET was performed. In biodistribution, [$^{18}$F]FPT showed similar pattern with [$^{18}$F]FET in various tissues, but [$^{18}$F]FPT showed low uptake in brain. Furthermore, [$^{18}$F]FPT showed higher tumor-to-brain ratio than [$^{18}$F]FET. In conclusion, [$^{18}$F]FPT seems to be more useful amino acid tracer than [$^{18}$F]FET for brain tumors imaging with PET.

This paper investigates the seismic performance of exposed RCFST column-base joints, in which the high-strength steel bars (USD 685) are set through the column and reinforced concrete foundation without any base plate and anchor bolts. Three specimens with different axial force ratios (n = 0, 0.25, and 0.5) were tested under cyclic loadings. Finite element analysis (FEA) models were validated in the basic indexes and failure mode. The hysteresis behavior of the exposed RCFST column-base joints was studied by the parametrical analysis including six parameters: width of column (D), width-thickness ratio (D/t), axial force ratio (n), shear-span ratio (L/D), steel tube strength (f_y) and concrete strength (f_c). The bending moment of the exposed RCFST column-base joint increased with D, f_y and f_c. But the D/t and L/D play a little effect on the bending capacity of the new column-base joint. Finally, the calculation formula is proposed to assess the bending moment capacities, and the accuracy and stability of the formula are verified.

D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU and L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU are F-18 labeled nucleoside analogue which have been efficiently synthesized in order to be a PET imaging probe. D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU and L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU were compared as PET imaging agents using HSV1-TK gene expressing tumor-bearing mice. Their cellular uptake profiles were also compared using MCA and MCA-TK cell lines. D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU demonstrated higher cellular uptake and higher accumulation in MCA-TK tumor regions than L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU. On the other hand, L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU showed higher MCA-TK/MCA ratio of %ID/g than that of D-[$^{18}F$]FMAU. L-[$^{18}F$]FMAU can be utilized as a good candidate for HSV1-TK PET imaging. It can be used for antiviral drug evaluation.

In R.C. flat slab system, a brittle punching failure is a very fatal problem. But there is no generally well-defined answer to the problem and there are wide differences in current practical design codes. therefore, in this study, the factors affecting to punching failure mechanism have been studied to find out the punching shear behavior in R.C. flat slabs by comparing other investigations and practical design codes. Therefore, In this study, the factors affecting to punching failure mechanism have been studied to find out the punching shear behavior in R.C. flat slabs by comparing other investigations and practical design codes. The conclusions in this study are summarized as follows; 1) The factors affecting to punching shear are concrete strength ($f_\alpha$), ratio of column side length to slab depth (c/d), ratio of distance from column center to radial contraflexure (l/d), yield strength of steel ($f_y$), flexural reinforcement ratio ($\rho$) and size effects. 2) It is shown that th use of $\surd{f_{ck}}$in applying($f_\alpha$ to punching shear strength estimation may be more sensitive in high concrete strength. 3) The effects of l/d, ($f_y$, size are no clear in the punching failure mechanism, so in the future, it should be investigated with the effects of various composed load.

Aspergillus oryzae로 발효시킨 청미래덩굴(Smilax china L) 잎열수추출물(FSCL)의 첨가가 토복령 열수추출물(SCLR)의 항산화능에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 각 2% 열수추출물을 0:100 (A), 20:80 (B), 40:60 (C), 60:40 (D), 80:20 (E), 100:0 (F) (v/v)의 조건으로 혼합하였을 때 total polypheno l(TP) 및 total flavonoid (TF) 함량, $OD_{475}$, 전자공여능(EDA), 철환원력(FRAP), xanthine oxidase (XO) 및 aldehyde oxidase (AO)에 대한 저해활성과 관능적 품질을 조사하였다. A와 F의 TP 함량은 각각 3.78 및 9.37 mg/100 mL, TF 함량은 각각 0.24 및 1.84 mg/100 mL로 FSCL이 SCLR에 비하여 TP는 2.48배, TF는 7.67배가 높았으며 FSCL의 첨가비율이 높아질수록 비례적으로 높았다($R^2=0.9887$, $R^2=0.9592$). $OD_{475}$는 FSCL의 첨가비율이 높아질수록 거의 비례적으로 높은 흡광도를 나타내었다($R^2=0.9850$). EDA (% at mL)는 A (25.75%)에 비하여 F (54.63%)에서 2.12배가 높았으며 FSCL의 첨가비율이 높을수록 높아지는 경향을 보였다($R^2=0.9668$). FRAP ($Fe^{2+}{\mu}mole/g$ of dry basis)의 경우도 EDA와 마찬가지로 A (1.18)에 비하여 F (4.92)에서 4.17배가 높았으며, FSCL의 첨가비율이 높아질수록 비례적으로 높았다($R^2$=0.9907). A의 XO에 대한 저해활성(mg/mL of $IC_{50}$)은 1.19로 F의 2.96에 비하여 59.80%가 높았으며, FSCL의 첨가비율이 높아질수록 비례적으로 감소하였다($R^2$=0.9490). 그러나 AO에 대한 저해활성(mg/mL of $IC_{50}$)은 XO의 경우와 반대로 A (3.37)에 비하여 F (1.41)에서 58.16%의 높은 저해활성을 나타내었으며, FSCL의 첨가비율이 높아질수록 높아지는 경향을 보였다. 향에 대한 기호도는 A와 F에서는 각각 2.77 및 2.72점으로 비슷한 값을 보였으며 발효청미래덩굴잎 열수추출물을 20-80 비율로 혼합하였을 때는 다소 향상되는 경향을 나타내었으나 상호간의 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 그러나 40% 혼합(C) 하였을 때는 무첨가 경우(A 또는 F)에 비하여 유의적으로 향상되었다. 맛에 대한 기호도는 F에 비하여 A에서 다소 높은 값을 나타내었으며 C에서 가장 높은 값을 나타내었다. 색상에 대한 기호도는 40-80% 첨가한 경우가 A, F 및 B보다 높았다. 입맛과 종합적인 품질에 대한 기호도는 C, D에서 가장 높았다. 이상의 결과 A. oryzae로 발효시킨 청미래덩굴잎의 열수추출물은 보이차 스타일의 적갈색을 나타내며, 토복령 열수추출물과 혼합함으로써 음료로서의 기호성이 높아짐과 동시에 EDA 및 FRAP와 같은 항산화활성이 높아지나, ROS 생성계 효소로 알려져 있는 XO와 AO의 활성 억제현상은 상반된 결과를 나타내고 있어 이와 관련된 기능성 식품 개발에 대한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 생각한다. 그러나 현재 실험의 결과만으로는 어떠한 성분이 이러한 항산화활성의 변화에 관여하는지는 확인할 수 없으며 추후 계속적인 연구 검토가 필요하다.

Chionanthus retusus has been used for landscaping and gardening trees, foods and medicines. This study was carried out to analyze the effect of fertilization on the growth performance of container seedlings (1-year-old) in C. retusus. We used multifeed 19 (MF) as a fertilizer, and measured the height, root collar diameter (RCD), biomass, seedling quality index (SQI) chlorophyll contents and chlorophyll fluorescence of the seedlings. The findings of this paper showed that the height, RCD, H/D ratio, T/R ratio and the fresh and dry weight of seedlings increased after fertilization. The moisture content of the stem and root did not show any significant difference among fertilizations, except in the case of the leaf. Production distribution such as the dry weight ratio of leaves and the stem dry weight ratio of fertilized seedlings had a higher value than that of non-treatment. SQI was the highest in MF 1,000 mg/L and 2,000 mg/L treatment. Chlorophyll contents (SPAD value) also increased with the increase in fertilization concentrations. Chlorophyll fluorescence (F_v/F_m) showed the highest value of 0.8 in MF 2,000 mg/L treatment.

The purpose of this study is to find clues to the risk of voice disorders in soprano students. The subjects of the study were 17 soprano students and 18 general students (women). The phonation of vowels /a/, /i/, and /u/ with C4 and F4 notes in each group were recorded. Then, only soprano students were made to record their classical vocalization containing vibrato. Formant, formant energy, bandwidth, VAI (vowel area index), VSA (vowel space area) and L/H ratio were analyzed. There was significant difference in F3 such that the singers' note was measured around 3 kHz which seems to be 400 Hz higher than one from general students. But, There was no significant difference in L/H ratio between soprano student and the general student. There was a significant difference in F3 in the comparison of the soprano students' two vocalization methods. Classical vocalization was measured at 200Hz higher than sustained phonation in F3. Vocal tract adjustment was made and vowel space changed, but there was no significant difference in F3 energy, which is the index of singers' formant according to the phonation method. The L/H ratio, which can be a direct indicator of vocal effort, has no difference in phonation method and is lowered in all phonation methods as the pitch increases. C4 and F4 pitches are lower than the singing range of the soprano. When the pitch changes, vocal effort increases like a general student which will be an indicator of the risk of vocalization. This will be a clue to the vocalization of the immature soprano student.

Purpose: To examine the effectiveness of serum free-to-total prostate specific antigen ratio (%fPSA) for the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) in men with different serum total PSA (tPSA) categories. Materials and Methods: From January 2010 to December 2013, a total of 225 patients with lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) underwent tPSA and %fPSA measurements. Histological examination with calculation of Gleason score and whole body bone scans were performed in identified cases of PCa. Results: PCa was diagnosed in 44 (19.6%) patients and the remaining 181 patients had benign prostate disease. PCa was detected in 5 (23.8%), 13 (8.7%) and 26 (47.3%) cases with tPSA level ranges ${\leq}4ng/ml$, 4 to 10 ng/ml and >10 ng/ml, respectively. The average Gleason score was $7.2{\pm}0.2$. Some 6 (13.6%) out of 44 PCa patients had bone metastases. The sensitivity was 80% and specificity was 81.3% at the cut-off %fPSA of 15% in PCa patients with a tPSA level below 4 ng/mL. A lower %fPSA was associated with PCa patients with Gleason score ${\geq}7$ than those with Gleason score ${\leq}6$ ($11.7{\pm}0.98$ vs. $16.5{\pm}2.25%$, P=0.029). No obvious relation of %fPSA to the incidence of bone metastasis was apparent in this study. Conclusions: The clinical application of %fPSA could help to discriminate PCa from benign prostate disease in men with a tPSA concentration below 4 ng/mL.

The genetic makeup could be the most important among many factors affecting yield and quality of tobacco(Nicotiana tabacum L.). The mammoth gene found in N. tabacum is associated with greater leaf number and poor leaf quality. This study was carried out to obtain the basic information about the inheritance of mammoth gene and white flower color. Two flue-cured breeding lines, KF 9373-2 and KF 8832-85, F$_1$, F$_2$, two parents backcrossed with F$_1$, and F$_3$ lines derived from cross of above two lines were investigated for flowering type(mammoth gene) and flower color. All plants of F$_1$ population revealed normal flowering type and pink flower color. The progeny of F$_2$ generation was segregated into the phenotypic ratio of 9 : 3 : 3 : 1 with normal flowering type and pink flower color, normal and white, non flowering type(NF) and pink, and NF and white, respectively. Among the progenies of back-crossing populations, the flowering type showed a segregation ratio of 1 : 1 as normal and NF in BP$_1$ and flower color did also 1 : 1 as pink and white in BP$_2$. All lines have the mammoth gene in F$_3$. that were selected in F$_2$ progeny as non flowering. But 9 lines among 14 were segregated with 3 : 1 as pink and white flower in F$_3$. which were selected in F$_2$ as pink flower color. These results indicated that the characters of mammoth gene and white flower were controlled by a pair of recessive genes, respectively.
