Singapora shinshana is a leafhopper native to mid-Asia with a specific host range and is one of the least studied species within the genus. Recently, the species has been found to cause significant damage to host plants including ornamental trees, normally inflicted by its sucking behavior. This study uncovered more details on host and season preference of S. shinshana, damage potential and symptoms caused by its feeding behavior on ornamental trees in Korea, in addition to other records of other leafhoppers of economic importance. During the sticky trap survey period from 2017 to 2019, 12 leafhopper species were recovered from the eight selected ornamental tree species. Singapora shinshana was the most dominant species, constituting 94.8% of the total collected leafhopper population; with its highest incidence observed on Prunus serrulata, followed by Elaeagnus umbellata and Pseudocydonia sinensis. The high abundance on P. serrulata correlated with high damaged leaf percentages of 94.2%, 95.2%, and 98.1% in October 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively. Interestingly, in terms of damaged leaf percentage, Rosa hybrida and Zelkova serrata were the second and third most damaged hosts despite the significantly lower population of the leafhopper on these trees. Furthermore, S. shinshana counts increased from late-July to late-September, with the peak evident during early August. Prunus serrulata can therefore be taken as one of the main host plants of S. shinshana. However, the potential of the host to suffer damage is not limited to population densities of the pest alone but also susceptibility and tolerance of the host plant.

Recent reports indicate that shorter etching times than 60 seconds can be adopted without affecting the bond strength and clinical disadvantages. The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the shear bone strength and to measure depth of etch at different etching time length. One hundred and eight extracted bovine lower central incisors were embedded each in a tooth cup with cold-cure acrylic resin. The facial surfaces of the teeth were ground wet with 600-, 800-, 1000-, and 1200-grit Sic papers, and finally polished with a water slurry of extrafine silicon carbide powder, washed with tap water, and dried with hot air. Nine groups of nine prepared teeth were etched with a commercial(38% phosphoric acid solution) for 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60, 90, and 120 seconds, respectively, rinsed with tap water, and dried with hot air. One conditioned teeth from every group was selected randomly for the scanning electron microscopic examination, and the remaining eight teeth of the groups were used for measuring the push shear bond strengh after bonding brackets and immensing them in the 36.5˚C water for 24 hours. Another nine groups of three teeth were used for measuring the depth of etch and surface roughness with a surface profilometer, after pieces of adhesive tape of 3mm inner diameter positioned on the ground enamel surfaces, and etched with the above mentioned. The data obtained form the above experiments were analysed statistically with one way ANOVA and Dunkan's multiple range test with the 95% confidence level. The results and conclusion of the study were as follows; 1. The results of shear bond strength for the given experimental etching times were not statistically different, but showed the tendency of decreasing shear bone strength after over 60 seconds etching times. 2. On the scanning election microscopic examination, it was observed that the morphological patterns of etched enamel surface for 5 to 20 seconds were similar and consitent, and those for 30 to 120 seconds showed increasing over-etched patterns depending on the length of etching times, but it was not associated with the shear bond strength. 4. The surface roughness increased depending on the length of etching times, but it was not associated with the shear bond strength. 5. This experiment indicated that proper etching time with 38% phosphoric acid solution is in the range of 5 to 30 seconds.

Background and Objectives : In recent years, the REAL (Revised European American Lymphoma) classification provided a new category of MALT (mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue) lymphoma and mantle cell lymphoma in B cell lymphomas. We have analyzed the expression of bcl-2, cyclin D1, bcl-6 and p53 and correlated with the subtypes and histologic grade of primary gastrointestinal B cell lymphoma. Also we investigated the usefulness of immunophenotypic features in diagnosis of low grade B cell lymphoma. Materials and Methods : Twenty-two cases of primary gastrointestinal B cell lymphoma were recategorized in low grade MALT lymphoma, low/high grade MALT lymphoma, high grade MALT lymphoma, and diffuse large cell lymphoma according to the morphological findings. We investigated the expression of bcl-2, cyclin D1, bcl-6 and p53 by immunohistochemical method. Results : The bcl-2 protein expression was higher in the low grade MALT lymphoma than in the high grade lymphoma. The cyclin D1 protein expression was negative in all cases. The expression of bcl-6 and p53 protein was negative in all low grade MALT lymphoma. Conclusion : The results suggest that we can differentiate the low grade lymphoma from the high grade lymphoma by immunohistochemical staining for bcl-2, bcl-6, and p53 protien.

In the biological world, there are a number of ecological fights for survival between each organism such as plants, animals and microorganism. In such events, an organism can use its natural bioactive products as defence agent against other organism. Furthermore, natural bioactive products can be utilized for medicine or functional food. Recently, we investigate the effect of Monascus pigment extracted from a fungus, Monascus anke, on the alcohol metabolism and blood lipid profile. In the present study, it is observed that Monascus pigment supplemented dietary may have a hepatoprotective effect on rat's liver damage induced with CCl₄. By treatment with CCl₄(3 times, I.P), liver damage was reduced more in the rats fed 2% Monascus pigment extract supplemented diet than those fed standard diet, based on the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase, microsomal glucose-6-phosphatse activity and hepaic malondialdehyde content. On the other hand, oxygen free radical generating enzymes, hepatic P-450 dependent aniline hydroxylase, xanthine oxidase, and oxygen free radical scavenging enzymes, hepatic glutathione S-transferase, catalase, superoxide dismutase activities were generally higher both in CCl₄, treated group and control fed 2% Monascus pigment extract supplemented diet than those fed standard diet. In conclusion, the rats fed 2% Monascus pigment extract supplemented diet showed more reduced liver damage than those fed standard diet, which may be due to the acceleration of oxygen free radical metabolism.

Background and Objectives: Immunolabelling of interstitial Cajal(IC) cells in the intestinal wall has recently been developed by using a specific marker, the anti-c-Kit antibody. Substance-P is a well-known neurotransmitter in the gastro-intestinal tract. Since the gastro-intestinal wall structures have already been well documented in the guinea pig, immunohistochemistry was done for the c-Kit-positive IC network and substance-P receptor(NK1R) in an attempt to provide a morphological basis for the mechanism regulating gastro-intestinal movement. Materials and Methods: Cryosection and whole-mount preparations of guinea pig small intestine and colon were single and double immunolabelled using the anti-c-Kit and NK1R antibodies. Immunolabelled specimens were observed under a confocal laser scanning microscope. Results : According to a three dimensional reconstruction study, it was found that (1) the c-Kit-positive celluar networks were widely distributed in the intestinal wall, (2) c-Kit-positive celluar networks encircled the ganlion, with strands in reticular configurations, and (3) the c-Kit-positive cells showed colocalization with NK1R in circular muscle(CM), not myenteric plexus(MY). Conclusion: The charateristic profiles of IC containing c-Kit-positive celluar networks and the relationship between c-Kit-positive and NK1R-positive structures provide a morphological basis upon the mechanism regulating gastro-intestinal motility.

KA, NaA, CaA 및 NaX 제올라이트가 충전된 실험실 규모의 흡착층을 이용하여 SO_2 유입농도, 충전층 높이 및 공간속도를 변화시키면서 SO_2 흡착실험을 수행하였다. 평형흡착량과 파과시간 모두 제올라이트 세공크기에 따라 KA, NaA, CaA, NaX 순으로 증가하였다. NaX상에서 SO_2를 흡착시킬 경우 SO_2 유입농도 504ppm 이하에서 파과시간은 증가하나 역시 물질전달범위도 증가하여 물질전달 속도는 감소하였다. Wheeler 식으로부터 제올라이트상의 파과시간에 대한 평형흡착량, 공간속도 및 1/C_0의 관계를 확인한 결과, 504ppm 이상보다 504ppm 이하의 저농도에서 파과시간이 상대적으로 증가하였다. The experimental of SO_2 adsorption, with varying SO_2 concentration, packed-bed depth, and space velocity, was carried out using a lab-scale fixed bed with zeolites, such as KA, NaA, CaA and NaX. Both of an equilibrium adsorption capacity and a breakthrough time increased with zeolite pore size, in order of KA, NaA, CaA and NaX. Breakthrough time of NaX increased under SO_2 concentration of 504 ppm, but mass transfer rate decreased due to expansion of mass transfer zone. Breakthrough time is relatively increased in the low gas concentration(<504 ppm) more than high concentration(>504 ppm), which is proved by the effects of equilibrium adsorption capacity, space velocity and l/C_0 for the zeolite from the relationship of Wheeler equation.

Background : Since 1997, the annual case occurrence of vivax malaria in the Republic of Korea have exceeded 1,000 cases since 1997. The military is thought to be an important source of the current outbreak. We collected various informations about malaria cases (soldiers, veterans and civilians) which occurred in 2000, and analyzed the characteristics of the current outbreak. Methods : Informations about malaria cases of soldiers, veterans and civilians, including name, age, sex, day of onset, region, etc., were collected through the National Institute of Health. Results : Out of total 4,141 cases, 1,288 (31.1%) occurred in the military, 1,273 (30.7%) occurred among the veterans, and 1,580 (38.2%) occurred among civilians. The monthly case occurrence reached its peak in early August. Areas such as Cheolwon, Yeoncheon and Paju showed the highest prevalence. Conclusion : It is considered that the current malaria outbreak has escaped from the exponential growth phase, however, more attention should be paid to prevent further spreading of malaria infection.

Adult polycystic kidney disease(APKD) usually accompanies with renal and extrarenal manifestations and liver cysts are present in aproximately 30% of patients with APKD. Kidney cysts often accompany with hemorrhage, rupture, infection, however, liver cysts are usually asymptomatic and do not impair liver function. Rare complication of liver cysts in patient with APKD include portal hypertension with bleeding esophageal varices and hepatic failure with encephalopathy. But, in APKD patient, infection of liver cysts without infection of renal cysts is extremely rare. We report a case of infected liver cyst in a patient with APKD who has complained generalized abdominal pain and high fever which was confirmed by ultrasound and aspiration. The patient was treated successfully with repeated aspiration and systemic antibiotics.

붕산수용액을 대상으로 한 냉각 CMSMPR결정화 장치계에 대하여 입자분포 및 결정화 동특성을 실험적으로 규명하였으며, 이로부터 이론적 회수량을 추정하였다. 정상상태에서의 결정입도는 지수분포를 보였으며 이로부터 결정성장속도(G)와 핵생성속도(B^o)는 각각 과포화도(S)와 부유밀도(M_T)의 관계로 표시할 수 있었다. G=6.46 × 10^(-5) S^(3.35) B^o=7.58 × 10^5 G^(0.10) M^(0.97)_T Crystal size distribution and dynamic properties were determined in cooling CMSMPR crystallization system with boric acid, while the crystallization yield was estimated based on the determined parameters. The crystal size distribution showed to be exponential at steady condition, which permitted crystal growth rate(G) and nucleation rate (B^o) to be expressed in terms of supersaturation degree(S) and suspension density (M_T) respectively; G=6.46 X 10^(-5) S^(3.35) B^o=7.58 X 10^5 G^(0.10) M^(0.97)_T
