Abstract:
The present invention relates to an exopolysaccharide derived from Pseudoalteromonas sp. strain CY01 (KCTC 12867BP) which is a novel strain living in the polar regions, and to a composition for cryoprotection of cells, which contains the exopolysaccharide. The exopolysaccharide of the present invention has an excellent ability to cryoprotect cells, and shows no cytotoxicity. Thus, the inventive exopolysaccharide can substitute for conventional cryoprotective agents that show cytotoxicity when used at high concentrations.

Abstract:
There is provided a novel use of ramalin for preventing or treating liver diseases, and more specifically, a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating hepatic fibrosis or cirrhosis containing ramalin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a functional food containing the same. It was confirmed that at the time of applying ramalin, which is a compound derived from Ramalina terebrata according to the present invention, to animal models, ramalin may remarkably suppress hepatic fibrosis and lower liver cirrhosis levels as compared to silymarin known as a liver cell protecting ingredient without cytotoxicity to normal liver cells, such that ramalin may be effectively used for preventing or treating hepatic fibrosis and liver cirrhosis.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a container for storing, transporting, and dissociating hydrate pellets, the container comprising: a first container (100) made up of a plurality of frames; a second container (200) which is rotatably installed inside the first container (100), stores hydrate pellets therein, and has an internal surface to which a heat insulating member is attached; and a refrigerating machine (300) which is installed inside the first container (100) and refrigerates the second container (200), wherein the second container (200) is equipped with a heating wire (210), which is heated to dissociate the hydrate pellets by being supplied with power, or with a hot water tube (220), through which hot water flows to dissociate the hydrate pellets, on the internal surface thereof.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is supporting structure for an offshore wind power generator. The supporting structure includes lower support part and main body part. The lower support part includes lower concrete part which is provided on a base installed on the sea floor and is reduced in width from the bottom thereto to the top, at least one lower hollow space which is formed in the lower concrete part, and a lower inner-pipe which is attached to the inner surface of the lower hollow space. The main body part is coupled to an upper end of the lower support part. The main body part includes a main-body concrete part, at least one main-body hollow space which is formed in the main-body concrete part and communicates with the lower hollow space, and a main-body inner-pipe which is attached to a circumferential inner surface of the main-body hollow space.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method of the synthesis of ramalin. It comprises reacting a glutamic acid derivative, which is prepared using alkylchloroformate, with a hydrazine salt compound, which is prepared from hydroxy aniline, whether protected or not. The synthesis method allows ramalin, excellent in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, to be simply synthesized at stable yield even without use of a highly toxic solvent such as DMF. In addition, the method is cost competitive, and provides ramalin at high efficiency, thus enabling the mass production of ramalin.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an apparatus and method for estimating a Doppler shift for underwater communication. The apparatus includes: a multipath delay profile determiner for detecting a correlation of a known signal 1 and a received packet signal and time (T1o) at a point having maximum energy of the correlation, and detecting a multipath delay profile at the time (T1o); a correlation calculator for calculating a correlation between a correlation of a known signal 2 and the received packet signal, and the multipath delay profile; a maximum value detector for detecting time (T2o) at a point having maximum energy of the correlation calculated by the correlation calculator; and a Doppler shift estimator for determining a Doppler shift using a difference between the time (T1o) and the time (T2o) at points having respective maximum energy.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to the prevention of bus conflicts in the backplane by providing a bus structure which is configured to control the activation of an attached slave board in the backplane to/from which a plurality of slave boards are attached and detached. The backplane according to the present invention can prevent data bus conflicts and improve the stability of a corresponding system by configuring general purpose I/O (GPIO) pins in a 2 bit request/grant scheme between a master board and the plurality of slave boards. Accordingly, the present invention can improve system reliability, maintainability, and competitiveness in various fields such as the fields of communication devices and server devices, remote monitors and control systems, vessel communications, aircraft communications, and wired and wireless communications in which various protocols are combined and implemented.
