Objectives: The objective of this study was to elucidate the effect of Jaeumkanghwatang (JEKHT) on the plasma concentration and pharmacokinetics of tamoxifen in combination therapy as a process of the comprehensive and integrative medicine against breast cancer. Methods: After 50 mg/kg of tamoxifen treatment, JEKHT 100 mg/kg was orally administered within 5 min. The plasma were collected at 30 min before administration, 30min, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 24 hrs after end of JEKHT treatment, and plasma concentrations of tamoxifen were analyzed using LC-MS/MS methods. PK parameters of tamoxifen ($T_{max}$, $C_{max}$, AUC, $t_{1/2}$ and $MRT_{inf}$) were analysis as compared with tamoxifen single administered rats. Results: JEKHT did not influenced on the plasma concentrations and pharmacokinetics of tamoxifen after single oral co-administration, within 5min except for some negligible effects on plasma concentration. The $T_{max}$, $C_{max}$, AUC, $t_{1/2}$ and $MRT_{inf}$ of tamoxifen in co-administered rats were quite similar to those of tamoxifen single treated rats. Conclusions: Based on the results of the present study, JEKHT did not influenced on the oral bioavailability of tamoxifen, when they were single co-administered within 5min. However, more detail pharmacokinetic studies should be tested to conclude the possibilities that can be used as comprehensive and integrative therapy with JEKHT and tamoxifen for breast cancers, when they were co-administered, like the effects on the pretreatment of JEKHT and after repeat co-administrations.

Park Min-Jae,Lee Gyemin,Kwak Jungwon,Jeong Chiyoung,Goh YoungMoon,Kim Sung-woo,Cho Byungchul,Song Si Yeol,Kim Jong Hoon,Jung Jinhong,Shin Young Seob,Oh Jungsu 한국물리학회 2024 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.84 No.9

To enhance effi ciency and minimize errors, we automated the quality assurance (QA) process in radiation oncology, specifi - cally laser localization. Additionally, we explored the use of a convolutional neural network (CNN) to enhance the detection of small cube-ball phantoms in noisy images. Laser localizations were measured manually on the acquired images. To automate the QA workfl ow, we developed a Linux server equipped with database and web servers. Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) fi les were retrieved 40 times for 10 linear accelerators (LINACs). The center of the cube-ball phantoms was estimated through Gaussian fi tting. We applied CNN using 6,968 stored results to improve the estimation performance in noisy megavoltage (MV) images. Subsequently, both analysis time and accuracy were compared. Our hospital has been employing the automated QA system since 2018, notably reducing the time for laser localization from 30 min to just 1 min. The average and standard deviation (SD) of inter-observer variability in the X- and Y-axes were 0.06 ± 0.01 mm and 0.05 ± 0.01 mm, respectively. Absolute diff erences between manual assessment and Gaussian fi tting presented average and SD values of 0.40 ± 0.51 mm and 0.23 ± 0.24 mm, respectively. In contrast, absolute diff erences between manual assessment and CNN presented average and SD values of 0.12 ± 0.10 mm and 0.11 ± 0.09 mm, respectively. Overall, the automated QA system signifi cantly hastened procedures in our large hospital and improved the estimation of the cube-ball phantom’s position in noisy images through deep learning.

멸균 초콜릿 우유로부터 분리한 내열성 균주에 대해 열, pH, 전해수, 오존처리, microwave 및 감마선 처리를 하여 균주의 사멸효과에 대해 알아보았다. 균주의 지방산 분석과 API kit를 통하여 균주를 동정한 결과, Bacillus lentus로 동정되었으며, 잠정적으로 Bacillus lentus M1으로 명명하였다. B. lentus M1에 110℃, 15분간 열처리하였을 경우 생육이 억제되었으며, pH 처리 시 pH 5 이하, 10 이상에서 생육이 억제된 것으로 나타났다. B. lentus M1에 대한 전해수의 항균활성을 paper disc법으로 측정한 결과, 높은 생육억제를 보였으며, 오존 처리의 경우 초기 균수가 10² CFU가량의 균을 10분 동안, 10³ CFU가량의 균을 30분 동안 처리 시 균의 생육이 억제되는 것으로 나타났다. Microwave를 1분간 처리 시 B. lentus M1이 모두 사멸한 것으로 나타났다. 감마선 조사의 경우, 1 kGy 조사 시 생균수가 1.61×10³ CFU로 초기 균수에 비해 4 log cycle 가량 균수가 감소하였으며 7 kGy에서 완전히 사멸하였다. 이상의 결과를 통해 열, pH, 전해수, 오존 처리 및 방사선 처리 방법이 멸균 초콜릿 우유의 생존 오염균인 B. lentus M1을 효과적으로 사멸시킬 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. This study was conducted to investigate the cause of microbiological contaminants in aseptic chocolate milk and evaluate the effect of a physicochemical treatment on the growth inhibition of isolated bacterial strains. The bacterium isolated from aseptic chocolate milk was identified as Bacillus lentus and was named B. lentus M1. In the heat and pH treatment, the growth of B. lentus was inhibited at 110℃ for >15 min and at pH’s <5 and >10. An electrolyzed water treatment against B. lentus M1, revealed 5 ㎜ growth past the inhibition zone. The effect of ozone gas on B. lentus M1 growth was evaluated using viable cell counts. When the initial number of B. lentus M1 was 10² and 10³ CFU, the bacteria were completely suppressed by ozone gas treatment for 10 and 30 min, respectively. In a microwave treatment, B. lentus M1 was sterilized following microwave treatment for 1 min. As the result of γ-irradiation against B. lentus M1, numbers decreased as the γ-irradiation dosage increased. These results show the growth inhibition effects against contaminants in aseptic chocolate milk using physicochemical treatments.

물리?화학적 처리에 의한 요구르트 오염균의 생육억제 효과를 알아보기 위해, 요구르트의 주요 오염균을 분리?동정하고, 열, pH, 전해수, 오존가스, microwave 처리 및 감마선을 조사하여 오염균주에 대한 사멸효과를 알아보았다. 오염된 요구르트로부터 분리한 효모의 지방산 조성 분석과 API(Analytic Profile Index) kit 분석을 실시한 결과, Hanseniaspora uvarum으로 동정되었으며 잠정적으로 Hanseniaspora uvarum Y1으로 명명하였다. H. uvarum Y1의 열 및 pH 처리에 의한 생육억제 효과를 측정한 결과, 70℃ 및 80℃에서 15분 가열처리로 균이 사멸되었으며, pH 처리 시 pH 2, 3 및 9에서 생육이 다소 억제되었으며, pH 1 및 10에서 완전히 억제되었다. 전해수 처리의 경우, clear zone이 5 mm 이상으로 H. uvarum Y1이 전해수에 높은 감수성을 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 오존가스 처리에 의한 H. uvarum Y1의 사멸효과를 측정한 결과, 102 CFU의 균은 10분, 103 CFU의 균은 20분 처리 시 모두 사멸한 것으로 나타났으며, microwave 처리의 경우, 106 CFU 가량의 균이 1분 처리 시 모두 사멸되었다. 방사선 조사의 경우, 균수를 90% 이상 감소시키는데 필요한 조사선량이 20 kGy 이상으로 H. uvarum Y1은 감마선에 저항성이 있는 균임을 알 수 있었다. 이상의 결과를 종합해볼 때 열, pH, 전해수, 오존가스, microwave 처리를 통해 요구르트 오염균주인 H. uvarum Y1의 생육을 효과적으로 억제할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. This study was conducted to investigate the cause of microbiological contamination in yogurt and evaluate the effect of physicochemical treatment on the growth inhibition of Hanseniaspora uvarum isolated from yogurt. The yeast strain Hanseniaspora uvarum Y1 was subjected to heat and pH treatments. H. uvarum Y1 was killed at 70oC and 80oC after 15 min and survived in a wide pH range from pH 2 to 9. However, it did not survive under pH 1 and over pH 10. In a disk diffusion susceptibility test on H. uvarum Y1, a clear zone (5 mm) of growth inhibition was observed upon treatment with electrolyzed water. The effect of ozone gas on the growth of H. uvarum Y1 was evaluated by viable cell count. Initial cell numbers of 102 and 103 CFU/mL of H. uvarum Y1 were completely killed by treatment for 10 and 30 min, respectively. H. uvarum Y1 was also sterilized by microwave treatment for 1 min. When treated with gamma-irradiation, the rate of killing of H. uvarum Y1 was proportional to the irradiation dose. and complete killing occurred at a dose of 50 kGy.

본 연구에서는 조제분유 중의 콜레스테롤을 신속하고 정확하게 분석하기 위해 지방 추출 과정을 거치지 않는 직접 검화 방법을 선택하여 분석법 개발을 시도하였다. 조제분유 분말시료를 직접 검화 수기에 취하여 검화 온도, 검화 시간, KOH 농도의 3가지 인자에 대해 콜레스테롤 회수율이 가장 양호하게 나타나는 최적 검화조건을 확립하고, 검화 후 수세과정에서 액액 분배가 용이한 용매 조건도 확립하였다. 또한 콜레스테롤 피크의 완전한 분리를 위한 적정 기기 조건을 확립하였다. 그 결과, 시료 약 2 g에 16 M-KOH 10 mL를 넣고 $90^{\circ}C$에서 60분 가열하여 검화한 후 diethyl ether로 3회 추출하고 hexane을 최종시험용액으로 하여 기기분석을 했을 때의 회수율이 98.80%로서 가장 양호하게 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 조제분유의 효율적인 액액분배 및 직접가열 검화법은 일원배치 분산법에 의해 유화가공식품의 콜레스테롤 분석법으로 유효성이 검증되었으며, 아울러 개발된 전처리 방법 및 기기 분석 조건을 활용해 다양한 분석 기관에서 신속 정확하고 효율적인 콜레스테롤 분석을 수행할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한 산업체의 품질관리 및 검증기관에서 필요시 모니터링에 적극 활용 가능할 것으로 사료되며, 이를 통해 유화가공식품 류의 함량표시 및 규격관리의 정확성과 효율성 증대에 기여하여 제조업체의 정확하고도 효과적인 품질 및 안전성 확보에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 특히 위해 물질에 대한 정확한 함량 판단이 중요한 조제분유 등의 영 유아용 식품의 안전성 확보에 지대한 공헌을 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. An improved cholesterol analysis method was developed for powdered infant formula by gas chromatographic separation after liquid-liquid extraction and partition. In the official Korea Food Standard method for cholesterol analysis, the water phase and solvent phase were not well separated in the case of emulsified foods such as powdered infant formulas and baby foods. For the rapid and simple sample preparation method, an optimized direct saponification condition was established for heating temperature, heating time, and KOH concentration. From the results, the optimum conditions were as follows: heating temperature $90^{\circ}C$, heating time 60 min, and 16 M KOH 10 mL for a 2 g infant formula sample; improved separation condition for gas chromatography was as follows: the initial oven condition was $250^{\circ}C$ for 25 min, the oven temperature was increased to $290^{\circ}C$ by $10^{\circ}C$/min ratio, and finally the oven temperature remained at $290^{\circ}C$for 9 min. The developed method could be implemented for the study of cholesterol, providing the advantages of reduced inspection time and cost in emulsified foods such as infant formula.

자동차 클러치 Judder 및 Shunt 현상에 대한 해석

곽문규,이영민 동국대학교 산업기술환경대학원 1996 산업기술논총 Vol.3 No.-

This paper is concerned with the dynamic analysis of an auto power train vibration problem. In particular, the clutch judder and shunt phenomena caused by the dynamic friction of the clutch pad are analyzed by means of the mathematical model. This paper presents the effect of parameters on the vibration characteristics of the system, thus illustrating the method of avoiding the harsh start-up problem. Numerical results show that the clutch judder and shunt can be avoided by increasing the system damping value either globally or locally. In addition, the friction coefficient affects the stability of the system thus causing instability to some modes. However, the main source of excessive vibration is resulted from the excitation force which depends on the friction coefficient.

알쯔하이머병의 단일 광전자 방출 뇌전산화 촬영에서 전형적인 유형과 관계를 보이는 요인

곽용태,한일우,방오영,박찬희,구민성 大韓神經精神醫學會 2001 신경정신의학 Vol.40 No.3

연구목적 : 최근 기능적 영상진단의 발전은 치매 환자의 진단에 많은 도움을 주고 있으며 이중 단일광자방출전산화단층촬영(SPECT ; single photon emission computed tomography)은 알쯔하이머 병의 특징적인 양측 두정측두엽의 혈류 감소를 보이므로 알쯔하이머 병의 진단에 많이 사용되어지고 있다. 본 연구는 알쯔하이머병의 SPECT 소견을 분석함으로써 알쯔하이머병의 진단에 있어서 SPECT 검사의 유용성 및 알쯔하이머병에서 전형적인 유형에 영향을 미치는 요인이 무엇인지를 규명한다. 방 법 : NINCDS-ADRDA진단 기준에 의거한 probable AD환자 26명을 대상으로 SPECT 검사를 시행하였으며 이중 14명은 전형적인 SPECT 소견을 보였으며 나머지 12명은 비전형적인 SPECT소견을 보였다. 치매의 정도는 Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)에 의하여 결정하였고 SPECT소견은 2명의 핵의학과 전문의의 합의에 의하여 정성적으로 판독하여 분석하였다. SPECT의 전형적인 소견과 연관이 있는 요소들을 확인하기 위하여 판별함수분석을 시행하였다. 결 과 : 알쯔하이머 환자에서 SPECT의 민감도는 53.8%이며, 조기 발병군의 경우에는 민감도가 76.9%이었다. 알쯔하이머의 전형적인 형태인 양측성 두정측두엽에 혈류량이 감소한 경우는 조기 발병군에서 유의하게 관찰되었으며, 이외에 이환기간, 교육정도, 성,병의 진행정도, 아포지단백E등은 유의한 연관성이 없었다. 결 론 : SPECT검사의 민감도는 높지 않으나 이를 조기 발병군에서만 적용하였을 경우 그 임상적 유용성이 높을 것으로 생각되며 조기 발병군에서 SPECT검사의 민감도가 만기 발병군에 비하여 유의하게 높은 것으로 보아 알쯔하이머병이 단일하지 않고 이질적인 집단의 증후군일 가능성이 높을 것으로 생각된다. 즉 SPECT검사가 알쯔하이머병의 진단뿐 아니라 병태생리적 기전의 이해에 도움이 될 것으로 생각되며 앞으로 정량화와 많은 중례를 확보하여 이에 대하여 좀더 규명할 필요가 있을 것으로 생각된다. Objectives : During the past few years, the development of functional brain imaging techniques has allowed to describe brain impairment in cognitive disorders. Among them, based on the observation of bilateral parietotemporal hypoperfusion in Alzheimer's disease(AD), single photon emission computed tomography(SPECT) is advocated by some as powerful diagnostic tool in the evaluation of demented patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the usefulness of SPECT in the diagnosis of AD and to clarify the associated factors of parietotemporal hypoperfusion, the typical SPECT pattern of Alzheimer's disease(AD). Methods : We reviewed the SPECT scans of 26 patients fulfilling NINCDS-ADRDA criteria for probable AD, 14 with typical pattern of SPECT and 12 with atypical pattern of SPECT. Dementia severity was assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination. Inage interpretation was done visually by the consensus opinion of 2 experienced nuclear medicine physicians who were blind to clinical information. To estimate the association of typical pattern of SPECT with other variables of interest, discriminant function analysis was done. Results : Though the overall diagnostic sensitivity of SPECT in AD was 53.8%, it was 76.9%, in early-onset AD patients. Typical pattern of SPECT was more frequent in the patients with early onset on the symptoms. Duration of symptoms, duration of education, se, severity of disease was not associated with this SPECT pattern. Conclusion : These findings may be useful in the clinical setting and point to heterogeneity of AD according to age at onset.
