Abstract: A method for preventing or treating a macular degeneration disease, comprising administering a composition comprising a ginseng berry extract to a subject in need thereof. Since the composition can inhibit AE2 accumulation in retinal pigment epithelial cells, inhibit photooxidation, and inhibit outer nuclear layer damage of visual cells, it can be usefully used in preventing or treating macular degeneration disease.

Abstract: A test structure includes a transistor, a dummy transistor and a pad unit. The transistor is formed on a first active region of a substrate. The dummy transistor is formed on a second active region of the substrate and electrically connected to the transistor. The pad unit is electrically connected to the transistor. Plasma damage to the transistor is reduced due to the presence of dummy transistor.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preparing an extract of the aerial part of Aster spathulifolius effective in preventing and treating hyperlipidemia and obesity and a composition comprising the extract. Since most of salt which is originally abundant in Aster spathulifolius, phenolic compounds which are unstable and susceptible to oxidation, and mucous substances are simply removed by the preparation method in accordance with the present invention, the present invention can significantly increase the content of terpenes, or the active ingredient, and reduce production cost. The composition of the present invention can be used as functional food for aiding the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia- and obesity-related arteriosclerosis, cardiovascular disease, cerebral thrombosis, liver disease, thrombosis, diabetes, etc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for the skin whitening and wrinkle improvement, comprising an extract of Vaccinium uliginosum as an active ingredient. The Vaccinium uliginosum extract has the effects of inhibiting and scavenging reactive oxygen species produced in skin tissue as a result of ultraviolet irradiation to the skin, effectively inhibiting tyrosinase activity to inhibit the production of melanin in melanin cells, inhibiting the secretion of cytokines in keratinocytes, promoting the production of procollagen, and inhibiting the decomposition of collagen. Thus, the extract will be useful for the prevention of skin photo aging caused by ultraviolet radiation, the enhancement of skin whitening and the improvement of wrinkles.
