In the present study, we have evaluated cytotoxic effects, antitumor activities and metastasis inhibitory effects of Palsun brewing water in NIH 3T3 cells, human epitheloid carcinoma cells, and human skin melanoma cells. The light microscopic study showed morphological changes, AG-NOR (argyrophylic nucleolar organizer region) by silver chloride stain, and glycoprotein by PAS (periodic acid stain) reaction of the treated cells. Disruptions in cell organelles were determined by colorimetric methods; MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazoliumbromide) and SRB (sulforhodamine B protein) assays. These results suggest that Palsun Brewing Water retains no cytotoxic effects in NIH 3T3 cells and a growth-inhibitory activity in cancer cell lines.

We have not identified on what gender difference during gait at a pace of one's preferred velocity effects on the function of bilateral lower limb. This study was undertaken to investigate a difference of gait strategy by gender during gait at a one's preferred velocity of participants of adult male and female (n=20). Cinematographic data for motion analysis, ground reaction force (GRF) variables, and muscle volume of lower limb were analyzed. Significant difference of variables on movement of center of mass whole body, joint angle and moment of lower limb, and ground reaction force were tested by 2-way ANOVA analysis (P<0.05). Male group showed more muscle volume than female, and both showed more volume in dominant leg than non-dominant. Main effect by bilateral leg during gait showed higher difference in right than left leg in change of vertical position of center of mass (maximal, minimal). Main effect by gender in vertical change of position and velocity of center of mass showed higher difference in male than female (maximal, minimal). Hip joint showed more flexed and extended angle in male than female, and also dorsiflexion of ankle and flexion moment of knee and hip joint showed higher in male than female group. Therefore, this result was assumed that dominant showed furthermore more contribution for propulsive function than non-dominant leg. Gender difference showed in strategy controlling of biomechanical characteristics, and perhaps influenced by muscle volume.

Recently KEPCO, KOGAS and other institutions are jointly conducting an R&D for the development and demonstration of the power generation system based on a natural gas/diesel engine on an island. As a preliminary study, co-combustion in the dual fuel engine, which is expected to produce a few mega-watts of electricity, was modeled and calculated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The applied key assumptions are 2-dimensional axisymmetric, transient and static volume chemical reaction. Based on the selected blending ratio, which is the key operating condition, natural gas is substituted instead of diesel fuel (basis of high heating value). Results showed that as the blending ratio increases, the reaction rate of the combustion increases and thus maximum temperature is reached more rapidly. For the optimal performance, various geometric or operational studies will further be conducted.

This paper presents a dynamic modeling method for the indeterminate spindle-bearing system supported by multiple bearings of different types. A spindle-bearing system supported by ball and cylindrical roller bearings is considered. The de Mul's bearing model is extended for calculating ball and cylindrical roller bearing stiffness matrices with inclusion of centrifugal force and gyroscopic moment. The dependence between spindle shaft reaction forces and bearing stiffness is effectively resolved using an iterative approach. The spindle rotor dynamics is established with the Timoshenko beam theory based finite elements. The spindle reaction forces, bearings stiffness and spindle natural frequencies are obtained with taking into account spindle radial load, ball bearing axial preload and rotational speed effects. The developed method is verified by comparing the simulation results with those from a commercial program.

Bee venom (BV), well known as a traditional Oriental medicine, has been widely used in the treatment of some immune-related diseases. However, the anti-allergic effect of BV have not been reported. In this study, we investigated the antiallergic effect of BV on triphasic cutaneous reaction (TpCR) and passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA). Our results indicated that BV suppress ear swelling and vascular permeability on IgE mediated type I hypersensitivity response. Increase in ear thickness was significantly inhibited by BV in this model. BV also blocked the infiltration of immune cells into the ear. Moreover, BV suppressed expression of HDAC3, Tryptase, MCP-1 in ear tissue. These results demonstrated that BV has a suppressive effect on allergic reaction.

Reaction of thianthrene cation radical perchlorate (1) with cumene (4), p-chlorocumene (2), and p-nitrocumene (3) hydroperoxides in acetonitrile at room temperature afforded, inter alia, thianthrene as a common product and 5-(4'-hydroxyphenyl) thianthrenium perchlorate (5) for 4, 5-(5'-chloro-2'-hydroxyphenyl) thianthrenium perchlorate (7) and 5-acetonylthianthrenium perchlorate (6) for 2 and 6 for 3, respectively. Stoichiometry of these reactions showed that 2 moles of 1 gave rise to 1mole of thianthrene and 1 mole of thianthrenium salt (or salts). Nucleophilic reactivity to 1 was found to be in the order of phenol > > p-chlorophenol ${\sim}$ acetone > > p-nitrophenol. Apart from acid-catalyzed heterolytic decomposition of hydroperoxides, small amount of homolytic decomposition products were found from 3 and 4.

Addition of dimedone to thioxanthylium ion generated from the oxidation of thioxanthene by thianthrene cation radical perchlorate in acetonitrile gave 9-(4,4-dimethylcyclohexane-2,6-dionyl)thioxanthylium perchlorate (2), whereas from the reverse addition between two reactants was obtained initially 9-(4,4-dimethylcyclohexane-2,6-dionyl)thioxanthene (1), which then underwent further reaction to give 2. The compound 2 was readily deprotonated in aq acetone to give 9-(4,4-dimethylcyclohexane-2,6-dionylidene)thioxanthene (3). However, 3 turned out to be in equilibrium with 2 in which three isosbestic points at 219, 289, and 348 nm were recorded in aq acetonitrile. The intensity and the position of the maximum absorption of 3 near 380 nm vary depending on the solvents which has been explained in terms of the solvent-solute interactions.

In the present work, a reaction of sulfur removal and simulation of desulfurization based on the grain model and two-phase theory were studied using natural manganese ore (NMO) as a sorbent in a continuous fluidized bed reactor. The effect of desulfurization was investigated through the grain model considered the change of pore structure as a function of desulfurization time, particle size of NMO, and diffusion velocity of $SO_2$ in the pores. Among these parameters, the diffusion of $SO_2$ in the pores of NMO was the most important factor. Moreover, the reaction of sulfur removal and desulfurization in a continuous fluidized bed reactor using NMO as a sorbent could be well predict through the grain model and two-phase theory, respectively.

The purpose of this experiment was to investigate both the immunomodulatory effect of evening primrose(EP) oil and the effects of EP oil on immunoregulation by cyclophosphamide in mice. EP oil at doses of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 ml/kg were orally administered to ICR male mice once daily for 28 consecutive days. Cyclophosphamide was injected intraperitoneally to ICR mice with a single dose of 5 mg/kg at 2 days before secondary immunization. Mice were sensitized and challenged with sheep red blood cells(S-RBC). Immnune responses were evaluated by humoral and cellular immune responses and non-specific immune response. The results of this study were summarized as follows; (1) The humoral immune responses such as hemagglutination titer(HA), hemolysin titer(HY), Arthus reaction and plaque forming cell(PFC) were significantly enhanced in the low dose EP oil administered groups(0.1 and 0.2 ml/kg). However, in the high dose EP oil administered group(0.4 ml/kg) the responses were significantly lowered. (2) In the case of cellular immune responses, delayed type hypersensitivity reaction(DTH) was significantly decreased in EP oil whereas rosette forming cell(RFC) was remarkably enhanced. (3) Activities of natural killer cells and phagocyte were generally enhanced in EP oil. In addition, serum albumin and globulin were also increased.

The pyrolysis for production of hydrogen and high quality carbon black from natural gas were studied. The reactivities in tubular reactor and FVR(free volume reactor) for the methane pyrolysis were compared, in order to prevent the formation of undesirable carbon product such as pyrocarbon, the FVR was designed. The hydrogen yield and the formation of carbon black from methane pyrolysis in this reactor were investigated at temperature range between 1443 and 1576K. From the result of TEM (transmission electron microscopy) analysis, it was confirmed that the CFC(catalytic filamentous carbon) was formed without pyrocarbon.
