This study was designed to determine the effect of ankle taping and short period of walking on the treadmill on the range of motion (ROM) and proprioception at the ankle joint. Twenty healthy male subjects (mean age=24.2 yr) participated in this study. Goniometry and videotape replaying method were used to measure the ankle ROM. Passive sagittal and frontal plane motions were measured. The difference in degree between the stimulus point and the reproduced point was defined as an angular error. The measurements were performed at four different phases: pre-taping (PRT), post-taping immediately (POT), post-5 minute walking with taping (P5M), and post-10 minute walking with taping (P10M). The ankle of dominant limb was taped by a certified athletic trainer using a closed basket weave technique. Participants walked on the treadmill at 2.5 mph. The results showed that the mean of the sagittal plane motion at PRT, POT, P5M, and P10M was 53.0, 30.5, 36.2, and 40.2 degrees, respectively. The frontal plane motion at PRT, POT, P5M, and P10M was 33.6, 13.9, 15.7, and 18.6 degrees, respectively. The angular error at PRT, POT, P5M, and P10M was 5.5, 1.6, 1.8, and 1.9 degrees, respectively. After 10 minutes of walking, the sagittal plane motion and frontal plane motion was increased by 9.7 and 4.7 degrees compared with POT, respectively. The proprioception was significantly improved after the application of ankle taping. Both the restriction of frontal plane motion and proprioception improvement at the ankle joint may contribute to ankle stability during walking.

수용성 매체에서 젤-케스팅 공정을 이용하여 용융실리카를 기본으로 하는 다성분계 세라믹 코어 (中子)를 제조하고, 소결조건에 따른 제반 기계적 물성과 알칼리 부식용액에 의한 용출특성을 고찰하였다. 1000cP (at 50sec-1 ) 이하의 낮은 점도를 갖는 50vol%의 고농도 다성분계 세라믹 슬림의 제조가 가능하였다. 성형체는 안정화시킨 슬림을 몰드에 부어 상온에서 겔화시킨 후 25˚C, 80% 상대습도 분위기 하에서 48시간동안 건조시켜 제조하였으며 건조된 성형체에는 균열이 발생하지 않았다. 세라믹 코어 성형체의 소결온도가 상승할 수록 상온강도, 겉보기 밀도, 수축률은 시편의 기공도와 역비례하여 증가하였다. 세라믹 코어 소결체의 용출속도는 동일한 온도에서 알칼리 부식용액의 농도에 의존하였으며, 소결체의 기공도가 클수록 증가하였다.

Micelle formation and adsorption at the Ti02 interface of a series of polystyrene-polythylene oxide(PS-PEO) block copolymer in aqueous solution was studied using fluorescence probing and small-angle X-ray methods. Further, the stability of aqueous Ti02 dispersion in the presence of copolymer was investigated by microelectrophoresis, optical density and sedimentation measurements. The dissolution of pyrene as fluorescent probe in aqueous surfactant solution leads to a slow decrease of the I1/I3 ratio, as the copolymer concentration increase; I1 and I3 are respectively the intensities of the first and third vibrionic peaks in the pyrene fluorescence emission. The behaviour was due to the characteristics of the copolymers and/or to the copolymer association efficiency in water. Moreover, the adsorption at the plateau level increases with decreasing PEO until chain length. The zeta potential of TiO2 particles decreases with increasing copolymer concentration and reaches a plateau value. Finally, stabilization using block copolymers was more effective with samples having higher weight fractions of PS block.

이온성 고분자에 비이온성 고분자를 섞어 이온 함량을 조절함으로써 다양한 전하량을 갖는 이온성 막을 제조하였다. 비이온성 고분자로는 폴리비닐알콜, 음이온성 고분자로는 알긴산 나트륨, 양이온성 고분자로는 키토산을 사용하였으며, 이들 이온성 고분자막을 사용하여 여러 전해질 수용액에 대한 투과 및 분리특성을 관찰하였다. 막 내부에 이온성 고분자 함량이 많을수록 친수성 특성을 보였으며, 순수투과 및 용액투과 속도가 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었고, 또한 투과속도는 막의 팽윤 거동에 의해 결정됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 용질 배제율의 경우는 막과 투과용질간의 정전기적 인력, 즉 Donnan exclusion에 의해 결정이 되며, 정전기적 인력이 비슷한 경우는 분자체 효과에 의해 분리됨이 관찰되었다.

수용액 매체에서 젤케스팅을 이용하여 복잡한 형상의 세라믹스를 제조하기 위한 새로운 공정을 연구하였다 용융실리카 분말과 첨가제로서 지르콘과 코디어라이트 조성으로 혼합된 현탁액을 electrosteric 방법으로 안정화시켰다. 슬립은 다성분계 세라믹 현탁액에 단량체, 이량체 그러고 분산제를 혼합하고, 볼밀하여 준비하였다. 슬립의 유동학적 특성을 평가하기 위해 점도를 측정하였으며 , 낮은 점도를 갖는 50vo1%의 고농도 다성분계 세라믹 슬립의 제조가 가능하였다. 슬립의 점도는 고분자 분산제의 함량과 단량체 및 이량체의 혼합비에 크게 의존하였다. 성형체는 안정화시킨 슬립을 몰드에 부어 상온에서 젤화시킨 후 25˚C, 80~85% 상대습도 분위기 하에서 48시간동안 건조시켜 제조하였으며 건조된 성형체에는 균열이 발생하지 않았다

전자산업 폐기물의 산침출 용액으로부터 전해채취법에 의해 Au와 Pd를 선택적으로 회수하기 위하여, 염산수용액 중에서 Au와 Pd의 전기화학적 거동을 voltammetry방법에 의해 조사하였다. Au단독 전해욕에서 Au의 환원전위는 약 800mV이었고 환원한계전류는 약 470mV에서 나타났으며, Pd 단독 전해욕에서 Pd의 환원전위는 약 500mV이었고 환원한계전류는 약 150mV에서 나타났다. 그러나, Au-Pd혼합 전해용액에서, Au의 환원전위 및 환원한계전위 값은 전해욕 중 Pd의 농도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였고, Au와 Pd의 환원한계전위 값은 Au-Pd 전해욕 중 Pd 전해용액의 함유량이 30vo1%일 때 가장 가까운 값을 나타내었다

From the beginning of his career as a poet, William Butler Yeats made serious efforts to learn and master the complex and abstruse Indian religious-philosophical- artistic system and tried to learn Indian philosophy system which he could use in his poems and other works. But what he borrowed from his Indian sources depended upon what he liked at a particular phase of his career, and upon his own ideas of art during that phase. Whether he liked the ascetic aspects or the life-affirming aspects of Indian philosophy was decided by his temperament as well as his changing ideas of art. For example, in the early part of his life when he was so feeble and weak as to escape into unrealistic world, his interest in asceticism, contemplation and the search for truth was strengthened through his own reading and associating with Chatterji. In his middle phase of life, after meeting Tagore and reading his Gitanjali, he learned the Upanishadic idea of the self. In his later part of life when he affirmed and accepted life and this world as a natural condition, he met Shri Purohit Swami. Under the influence of Swami his ideas of art once again favored celebrating the supernatural, but simultaneously they were glorifying human passions. Sexuality and passion appeared to him aspects that could be sung about with intimacy. Instinct began to appear to him very sacred. He was turning to another phase of Indian philosophy which attributes sacredness to spontaneity. Yeats began to integrate the natural and the supernatural through his art so that his art becomes a new religion with spiritual overtones and with the warmth of the passions of life.

공칭크기 0.2μm인 소수성 PTFE 정밀여과막을 이용하여 glucose 수용액을 막증류하였다. Glucose 수용액 온도를 40℃에서 70℃로 상승시킬 경우 막 투과 유속은 3.6 LMH에서 11.2 LMH로 3배가량 증가하였으나 glucose 배제율은 99%에서 65%까지 감소하였다. 또한 glucose 수용액 농도를 2wt%에서 4wt%로 증가시키면 투과유속과 배제율은 각각 약 25% 및 6% 감소하였다.

Ethyl esters (aroma model compounds; ethyl acetate, ethyl propionate, ethyl butyrate) 수용액으로부터 aroma 화합물의 회수를 위해, 표면 개질한 알루미나막을 이용하여 증기 투과를 수행하였다. Ethyl butyrate의 구동력이 가장 큼에도 불구하고, 투과부에서 ethyl ester의 농도는 ethyl butyrate가 가장 높았으며, ethyl propionate, acetate의 순서로 나타났다. 또한, 물에 대한 ester 화합물의 용해도가 상당히 낮기 때문에 투과부에서 상분리가 일어나 순수한 aroma 화합물을 얻을 수 있었다. 실험 결과, 제조된 소수성 알루미나막은 에스테르 화합물에 대해 높은 선택도와 투과 플럭스를 보여 주었다.

A survey was conducted to examine the effect of food irradiation education on college students' knowledge and acceptance of food irradiation. The instrument for the knowledge and acceptance of food irradiation was administered before and after food irradiation education, to 150 students majoring in food and nutrition or food technology in the Chungnam National University. Before the education approximately 93% of the respondents did not know that radioactivity dose not remain in food after irradiation; whereas, after education half of them thought that radioactivity dose not remain in irradiated food. Knowledge about food irradiation has improved through education. The education significantly increased all the mean scores of need for food irradiation and willingness to use irradiated foods for the six food groups (p<0.01). The education significantly decreased the mean scores of concern about the irradiated food for all the six food groups (p<0.01). Although the responses to irradiated foods are, in general, negative or neutral even after education, the mean scores of acceptance of the irradiated foods have improved through education in all the six food groups (p<0.01). In conclusion, this study showed that food irradiation education may positively affect the college students' knowledge and acceptance of food irradiation, and that the development of both the appropriate detection methods to identify irradiated foods and the education programs to enlighten the college students are needed.

A survey was conducted to examine the knowledge and acceptance of food irradiation in order to provide baseline data required in the development of food irradiation education programs for college students. 150 students majoring in food and nutrition or food technology in the Chungnam National University were chosen for a survey. The results are as follows. First, college students' knowledge about food irradiation is scanty. Knowledge assessment showed that 56% of the participants had previously heard of food irradiation. 68% of the respondents thought that radioactivity remains in food after irradiation and 25.3% of them were not sure whether radioactivity remains in food after irradiation or not. Only half of the respondents thought that nutrient loss due to irradiation is equal to or lower than that due to cooking or freezing. Second, approximately 56% of the respondents showed that food irradiation is somewhat or strongly needed for meat or fish; whereas, over 60% of them showed that food irradiation is not needed for grain, vegetable and fruit. Almost 40% of the respondents were seriously concerned about irradiation of vegetables and fruits; whereas, they showed less concern about spice irradiation. More than half of the respondents were not willing to use irradiated food in all the six food groups. Third, the correlation analysis showed that the need of food irradiation is negatively correlated with concerning about the irradiated fish and fruits, but positively correlated with willingness to use irradiated food in all the five food groups, except in spices. Concern about the irradiated food is negatively correlated with willingness to use irradiated food from all the six food groups. Fourth, almost all the respondents (over 90%) agreed that the irradiated food labeling is required as well as the development of proper methods to identify irradiated foods.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ‘knowledge of results’ on wrist proprioceptive training in three persons with poststroke hemiplegia who had no unilateral spatial neglect on MVPT and had adequate cognition on MMSE-K. A single subject design with multiple baseline across individuals was employed. Each subject participated daily in the 10-15 minutes' wrist proprioceptive training for the affected wrist with ‘knowledge of results’ which informed the subjects of their wrist position verbally or visually as feedback. The proprioception was measured as average frequency and percentage of the correct responses on the wrist proprioceptive test in the affected side using apparatus of researcher’s own design and SoloSystem. The measurements were repeated three times; baseline, immediately, and 30 minutes after the training. The results were as follow: 1.　During the baseline period, the number of average correct responses in three subjects were: S1 7.20(36.00%), S2 7.25(36.25%), and S3 10.58(52.92%) respectively. 2.　Immediately after the training, the number of average correct responses in three subjects were: S1 14.07(69.67%), S2 12.83(64.17%), and S3 15.63 (78.13%) respectively. 3. Thirty minutes after the training, the number of average correct responses in three subjects were: S1 15.53(77.67%), S2 14.25(71.25%), S3 6.38(81.88%) respectively. 4. All the three subjects showed more correct responses in wrist proprioceptive tests at wrist flexion 60°and extension 60°during both the baseline and the training period. They also showed the highest improvement of correct response at neutral wrist position. These results indicated that ‘knowledge of results’ had positive effects on improving and maintaining the wrist proprioception of affected wrists in persons with poststroke hemiplegia. Effect of such improvement on the functional aspect of stroke-affected upper extremity remains to be evaluated in the later study.

수산물 가공시 흘러나오는 폐수 충에 함유되어 있는 수용성 단백질을 chitosan에 흡착시키기 위하여 albumin과 hemoglobin, albumin-myoglobin혼합단백질을 이용하여 chitosan과의 흡착 및 chitosan 제조조건에 따른 흡착효과와 chitosan 의 수용성 단백질 흡착에 미치는 인자를 살펴본 결과는 다음과 같다. Chitosan의 탈아세틸화 조건을 60, 70, 80%로 달리하여 albumin, hemoglobin, albumin-myogloin 혼합용액에 적용했을 때 chitosan의 탈아세틸화도가 높을수록 chitosan과 단백질 사이의 흡착률은 높게 나타났다. 초음파 처리에 의하여 chitosan의 분자략을 변화 시켰을 때 chitosan의 분자량이 작을수록 chitosan과 단백질 사이으 흡착률은 높게 나타났다. pH 변화에 따른 Chitosan과 수용성 단백질 흡착률은 albumin 및 albumin-myoglobin 혼합용액에서는 pH 4.0에서 hemoglobin 용액에서는 pH 7.0에서 흡착률이 높게 나타났다. Chitosan과 수용성단백질과의 흡착에서 반응시간은 albumin 및 albumin-myoglobin 혼합용액에서는 4시간, hemoglobin 용액에서는 3시간까지 흡착률의 증가는 거의 보이지 않았다. 수용성 단백질 용액에 NaCl 농도를 0.1M에서 1.0M로 증가시켜 첨가했을 때 염의 농도가 높을수록 chitosan과 단백질 사이의 흡착이 잘 일어나지 않았다.

Transdermal therapeutic system(TTS) is often used as the method of drug dosage into the epidermic skin. Natural polymer were selected as ointment material of TTS. We investigated the permeation of natural polymer ointment containing drug in rat skin using horizontal membrane cell model. Permeation properties of materials were investigated for water-soluble drug such as oxiniacic acid in vitro. These results showed that skin permeation rate of drug across the composite was mainly dependent on the property of ointment base and drug. Proper selection of the polymeric materials which resemble and enhance properties of the delivering drug was found to be important in controlling the skin permeation rate. This result suggests a possible use of natural polymer ointment base as TTS of antihyperlipoproteinemic agent.

Thirty normal adults were tested to measure the electrical activity of the anterior (AD), middle (MD), and posterior portion (PD) of the deltoid muscle and sternal portion of the pectoralis major muscle (PM) during the performance of four upper extremity PNF diagonal patterns with elbow flexion angle in , , and . The PNF patterns in which these muscles function optimally have been theoretically advanced by Kabat and further described by Knott and Voss. They theorize that the MD should be most active with shoulder flexion, abduction, and external rotation (D2F); the PD with shoulder extension, abduction, and internal rotation (D1E); the AD with shoulder flexion, adduction, and external rotation (D1F); and the PM with shoulder extension, adduction and internal rotation (D2E). The patterns were performed through range of motion, with an isometric contraction performed in the shortened range. When the EMG activity of AD, MD, PD and PM in its optimal patterns was measured, it does not have significant difference among fixed elbow flexion angle , , and (p>.05). In addition, suggestions were made for study of patients who exhibit imbalance of muscle strength and have muscle weakness.

소결 촉진제 첨가없이 치밀한 코디어라이트 세라믹스를 얻기 위해 Mg-Al-Si계의 열적거동을 검토하였다. 수용액 매체에서 코디어라이트 현탁액의 분산안정성을 ESA를 이용하여 조사하였으며, 코디어라이트 졸의 응집 방지와 분산성을 부여하기 위해 2N HNO3와 2N NH4OH 용액으로 pH 1.03과 pH 8.30로 조절하였다. pH 8.30인 코디어라이트 졸을 150˚C에서 12시간 건조한 시료에서 magnesium-aluminum-silicate 복합 겔이 존재하였다. 평형상태의 코디어라이트 겔의 결정화는 1300˚C 이상의 소결 온도에서 존재하였으며, 1300˚C 이하의 조건에서는 μ-cordierite(Mg2Al4Si5O18), spine(MgAl2O4) 및 mullite(Al6Si2O13)와 같은 다양한 준안정상이 복합적으로 혼재하였다. pH 1.03과 pH 8.30로 조절된 현탁액에서 코디어라이트 겔의 핵반응은 유사하게 일어났으나, 치말화거동은 졸의 pH에 상당한 차이를 보였다. pH 1.03인 졸 보다 pH 8.30인 졸의 치밀화가 더욱 진전되었다.
