In this study we investigate catalytic activity and selectivity of mixture of Ag and ketjenblack according to their ratios by product analysis and electrochemical experiments, such as cyclic voltammetry, linear sweep voltammetry and chronoamperometry. We reveal that catalytic activity toward CO₂ reduction to CO is improved by simple mixing Ag nanoparticle and ketjenblack because addition of ketjenblack suppresses aggregation of Ag nanoparticles and brings increase in electrochemical active surface area. However, excess amount of ketjenblack rather inhibit the CO₂ reduction to CO. These observations provide clues to develop highly active Ag catalyst or electrode toward electrochemical reduction of CO₂.

Hippocampus is an important part of brain which is related with early memory storage and spatial navigation. By observing the anatomy of hippocampus, some brain diseases effecting human memory (e.g. Alzheimer, schizophrenia, etc.) can be diagnosed and predicted earlier. The diagnosis process is highly related with hippocampus segmentation. In this paper, hippocampus segmentation using Active Shape Model, which not only works based on image intensity, but also by using prior knowledge of hippocampus shape and intensity from the training images, is proposed. The results show that ASM is applicable in segmenting hippocampus from whole brain MR image. It also shows that adding more images in the training set results in better accuracy of hippocampus segmentation.

Hepatoprotective activities of 26 traditional Korean herbal prescriptions described in Donghibogam were evaluated in vivo and in vitro screening system. Twenty one prescriptions appeared to be active. Six prescriptions among them showed highly significant hepatoprotective activities; Shihogyegy-Tang(柴胡桂枝湯), Soshiho-Tang(小柴胡湯), Shiho plus Younggolmoryo-Tang(柴胡加龍骨牡蠣湯), Yinjinho-Tang(茵蔯蒿湯), Yinsam-Tang(人蔘湯) and Shashim-Tang(瀉心湯). Shihogyegy-Tang was most active. They reduced the release of transaminases from dissociated hepatocytes by thioacetamide, and serum transaminases and alkaline phosphatase activities of rat with carbontetrachloride-induced hepatitis. They inhibited significantly lipid peroxidation and cellular fatty change of liver by carbontetrachloride.

This paper describes Active Noise Control (ANC) using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) Domain Least Mean Square (LMS) Method. DWT-LMS is one of the transform domain input decorrelation LMS and improves the convergence speed of adaptive filter especially when the input signal is highly correlated. Conventional transform domain LMS's use Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) because it offers linear band signal decomposition and fast transform algorithm. Wavelet transform can project the input signal into the several octave band subspace and offers more efficient sliding fast transform algorithm. In this paper, we propose Wavelet transform domain LMS algorithm and shows its performance is similar to DCT LMS in some cases using ANC simulation.

Cutaneous wound healing is a highly orchestrated process comprising a number of well-defined temporally overlapping phase. These include the migration of inflammatory cells to the wound site, and re-establishment of an epithelial barrier (re-epithelization), and the deposition of matrix by fibroblast [1]. We attempt to find out that active ceramic resources has effects on cutaneous wound healing. And furthermore, we investigate its related mechanism and expression of cytokines of cutaneous wound healing which is accelerated by active ceramic resources. (omitted)

This survey of 659 mothers examined maternal childrearing attitudes of over-protectiveness vs. active involvement and restrictive and/or evaluative TV/Video viewing mediation in relation to children's emotional, cognitive and social development. Data were analyzed by mean, standard deviation, Pearson's correlation, and multiple regression. Maternal over-protectiveness was highly associated with children's negative emotionality and maternal active involvement with children was the most important determinant of children's positive development. Furthermore, appropriate parental mediation of children's TV/Video viewing was related to children's higher cognitive and social ability as well as positive emotionality.

We report a novel approach for fabricating active surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate for sensitive detection. This approach is based on the assembling of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) onto the electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofiber film. The hydrophobic surface of PCL nanofiber film was pretreated using UV-inducing graft polymerization with acrylic acid. Afterwards this PCL nanofiber film was incubated with the AuNP solution to promote the assembly of AuNPs onto the PCL nanofibers and the formation of SERS active substrate. 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) molecule was used as a test probe for SERS experiments, indicating that the substrate has high sensitivity to SERS response. Our method has great advantage in term of environment-friendly synthesis, large-scale, high stability and good reproducibility. This highly active SERS substrate can be employed to detect the drug molecule, 2-thiouracil.
