Zinc is known to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) including superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$), which eventually contribute to cytotoxicity in a variety of cell types. Here in, we demonstrated that zinc decreased the viability of C6 glial cells in a time and dose-dependent manner, which was revealed as apoptosis characterized by ladder-pattern fragmentation of genomic DNA. chromatin condensation and DNA fragmentation in Hoechst dye staining. Zinc-induced apoptosis of C6 glial cells was prevented by the addition of catalase and antioxidants including reduced glutathione (GSH), N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) and pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC). Wefurther confirmed that zinc decreased intrac-ellular levels of GSH and generated $H_2O_2$in C6 glial cells. Moreover, antioxidants also decreased the generation of zinc-induced $H_2O_2$ in C6 glial cells. These data indicated that zinc-induced the apoptotic death of C6 glial cells via generation of reactive oxygen species such as $H_2O_2$.

Heteroleptic complexes of zirconium (IV) derived from bulky Schiff base ligands containing a sulphur atom and oximes of heterocyclic ${\beta}$-diketones of the general formula ZrLL' (where $LH_2=RCNH(C_6H_4)SC:C(OH)N(C_6H_5)N:CCH_3$, $R=-C_6H_5$, $-C_6H_4Cl(p)$ and $L^{\prime}H_2=R^{\prime}C:(NOH)C:C(OH)N(C_6H_5)N:CCH_3$, $R^{\prime}=-CH_2CH_3$, $-C_6H_5$, $-C_6H_4Cl(p)$ were prepared by the reactions of zirconium tetrachloride with disodium salts of Schiff bases ($L\;Na_2$) and oximes of heterocyclic ${\beta}$-diketones ($L^{\prime}\;Na_2$) in 1:1:1 molar ratio in dry refluxing THF. The structures of these monomeric zirconium (IV) complexes were elucidated with the help of elemental analysis, molecular weight measurements, spectroscopic (IR, NMR and mass) studies. A distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry may be suggested for these heteroleptic zirconium (IV) complexes. The ligands (bulky Schiff base ligands containing a sulphur atom and oximes of heterocyclic ${\beta}$-diketones) and their heteroleptic complexes of zirconium (IV) were screened against A. flavus, P. aeruginesa and E. coli.

Oxidative alteration of mitochondrial cytochrome c has been linked to disease and is one of the causes of proapoptotic events. We have investigated the modification of cytochrome c by $H_2O_2$. When cytochrome c was incubated with $H_2O_2$, oligomerization of the protein increased and the formation of carbonyl derivatives and dityrosine was stimulated. Radical scavengers prevented these effects suggesting that free radicals are implicated in the $H_2O_2$-mediated oligomerization. Oligomerization was significantly inhibited by the iron chelator, deferoxamine. During incubation of deoxyribose with cytochrome c and $H_2O_2$, damage to the deoxyribose occurred in parallel with the release of iron from cytochrome c. When cytochrome c that had been exposed to $H_2O_2$ was analyzed by amino acid analysis, the tyrosine, histidine and methionine residues proved to be particularly sensitive. These results suggest that $H_2O_2$-mediated cytochrome c oligomerization is due to oxidative damage resulting from free radicals generated by a combination of the peroxidase activity of cytochrome c and the Fenton reaction of free iron released from the oxidatively-damaged protein.

ECR-PECVD 방법을 이용하여 ECR power, $CH_4/H2$ 가스 혼합비와 유량, 증착시간, negative DC self bias 전압 등을 변화 시켜가면서 수소가 함유된 비정질 탄소 박막을 제조하고, 증착조건에 따른 박막의 결합구조 변화를 FTIR로 분석하였다. a-C:H 박막에 대한 FTIR 스팩트럼의 흡수 peak들은 2800~3000 $\textrm{cm}^{-1}$ 영역에서 관측되었으며, 대부분 $sp^3$ 결합을 하고있고 일부 $sp^2$ 결합구조가 존재함을 알 수 있었다. $CH_4/H_2$ 가스 혼합비와 유량의 미소 변화는 a-C:H 박막의 탄소와 수소의 결합구조에 큰 영향을 미치지 않았으며, 증착 시간이 증가할수록 탄소와 수소 원자들의 결합구조가 $CH_3$ 구조로부터 $CH_2$ 나 CH 구조로 변하고 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, bias 전압을 증가시킬수록 플라즈마에 의한 이온충돌 현상이 두드러져 탄소와 결합하고 있던 수소원자들이 떨어져 나가는 탈수소화 현상도 확인할 수 있었으며, 증착조건에 따른 a-C:H 박막의 결합구조 분석을 토대로 산업에 응용할 수 있는 높은 경도와 밀착성을 갖는 박막을 ECR-PECVD 방법으로 제조할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Sb/SiC(4H) 및 Ti/SiC(4H) 쇼트키 다이오드(SBD)를 제작하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. 용량-전압(C-V) 측정으로부터 얻은 n-형 SiC(4H)의 주개(donor) 농도는 약 $2.5{\times}10 ^{17}{\textrm}cm^{-3}$이었다. 순방향 전류-전압(I-V) 특성의 기울기로부터 얻은 Sb/SiC(4H) 쇼트키 다이오드의 이상계수는 1.31이었고, 역방향 항복전장(breakdown field)은 약 4.4$\times$102V/cm 이었다. 용량-전압(C-V) 측정으로부터 얻은 Sb/SiC(4H) SBD의 내부전위(built-in potential) 및 쇼트키 장벽 높이는 각각 1.70V 및 1.82V이었다. Sb/SiC(4H)의 장벽높이 1.82V는 Ti/SiC(4H)의 0.91V보다 높았다. 그러나 Sb/SiC(4H)의 전류밀도와 역방향 항복전장은 Ti/SiC(4H)의 것보다 낮았다. Ti/SiC(4H)는 물론 Sb/SiC(4H) 쇼트키 다이오드는 고전력 전자소자로서 유용하다.

폐타이어는 환경 문제와 관련하여 오염과 재활용의 양면성을 지니고 있다. 이와 같은 폐타이어를 재활용의 측면에서 고온의 열플라즈마를 이용하여 열분해하여 가연성 가스로의 전환을 시도하였다. 폐타이어를 산소가 배제된 상태에서 열분해하여 $CH_4$, $C_2H_2$, $C_4H_{10}$등과 같은 저분자량의 탄화수소가 주성분인 가연성 가스가 다량 발생함을 GC를 이용하여 확인할 수 있었다. 타이어의 공급량이 증가할수록 가연성 가스의 구성에서 $CH_4$의 비율이 증가하였으며, 플라즈마 전력이 증가할수록 $C_2H_2$가 증가함을 확인하였다. 발생가스는 $C_4H_{10}$ 또는 $C_2H_2$등의 탄화수소가 주를 이루었으며 그 비율은 70%이상이었다. 한편 char의 온도에 따른 질량 감소 경향을 TG로 분석하여 열플라즈마 내에서 타이어의 열분해 경향을 간접적으로 유추할 수 있었다.

Reaction of Rh $(ClO_4)(CO)(PPh_3)_2$ (1) with trans-$C_6H_5CH = CHCH_2OH$ (2) produces a new cationic rhodium(Ⅰ) complex, $[Rh(trans-C_6H_5CH = CHCHO)(CO)(PPh_3)_2]ClO_4$ (3) where 2 is coordinated through the oxygen atom but not through the olefinic group. At room temperature under nitrogen, complex 1 catalyzes dehydrogenation, hydrogenolysis, and isomerization of 2 to give $trans-C_6H_5CH$ = CHCHO (4), trans-$C_6H_5CH = CHCH_3$ (5) and $C_6H_5CH_2CH_2CHO$ (6), respectively, and oligomerization of 2 whereas under hydrogen, complex 1 catalyzes hydrogenation of 2 to give $C_6H_5CH_2CH_2CH_2OH$ (7) and hydrogenolysis of 2 to 5 which is further hydrogenated to $C_6H_5CH_2CH_2CH_3$ (8). The dehydrogenation and hydrogenolysis of 2 with 1 suggest an interaction between the rhodium and the oxygen atom of 2, whereas the isomerization and hydrogenation of 2 with 1 indicate an interaction between the rhodium and the olefinic system of 2.

Effects of benzoate (0~0.6 g/$\ell$ ) and sorbate (0~2.0 g/$\ell$) on the growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7 in tryptic soy broth at various pH levels (4~8) and temperatures (4$^{\circ}C$, 37$^{\circ}C$) were investigated. Benzoate and sorbate were inhibited the growth of E. coli O157:H7 up to 12 hours cultivation at 4$^{\circ}C$, and 2.0 g/$\ell$ sorbate was only inhibited during 48 hours cultivation at 37$^{\circ}C$. Among the pH levels tested, pH 4 showed significant inhibitory effect against the E. coli O157:H7 on 4$^{\circ}C$ and at 37$^{\circ}C$, respectively. When used in combination 0.2 g/$\ell$ benzoate and sorbate were completely inhibited the growth of E. coli O157:H7 on pH 4 and at 37$^{\circ}C$. While on pH 5 at 4$^{\circ}C$, all of the concentration tested did not exert any inhibitory effect. The combined effects were retarded more than single treatment of E. coli O157:H7.
