A joint research team led by Dr. Hojun Kim at the Center for Advanced Biomolecular Recognition and Dr. Hong Nam Kim at the Center for Brain Convergence Research of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST, President Sang-Rok Oh) has developed a novel drug-loading technique that allows large biomolecules to be efficiently incorporated into exosomes simply by mixing.
This study initiatively developed the phosphor-free LED lamp based on high-efficiency yellow LED, and explored the photo-biological effects of yellow-green spectrum. Analyzing multiple ocular physiological parameters, cortical functional connectivity, and melatonin secretions at various moments, the authors demonstrated the positive photo-biological effects of yellow-green-rich phosphor-free LED lamp. This study revealed the spectral regulation mechanism and the intrinsic mathematic model of human physiological response, applicable in the fields of health-oriented lighting and displays.
