This paper analyzes the characteristics of the ancient tombs discovered in the Gyeongju site and discusses the direction of the excavation. There are six special features of the wooden chamber tomb covered with stone in Gyeongju. First, confirmation of the above-ground type and the underground type burial mound. Second, confirmation of the construction such as the partition of mound and the pile of stone structure. Third, confirmation of the frontal part structure of the protect stone such as pebble-stone layer, boundary stone. Fourth, confirmation of the relationship before and after the mound. Fifth, the circumference and boundary of the confirmed(before 1990s) burial mounds were discovered, resolving the uncertainty. Sixth confirmation of the crowd unit tombs. By summing up these six features, it is possible to clearly divide the individual units and the crowd units of the Silla tombs. Confirmation of individual units and crowd units can clarify the size and scope of the tombs located by the concatenation and overlap. It is possible to get a glimpse of the formation process through the interrelationships between the two sides. The tombs are located in the upper-and-lower layer structure of the tombs and show selective site selection. When this formative process is rearranged, it is understood that the Gyeongju Silla Cemetery is formed through the course of four stages. It is anticipated that it will be possible to make selective projects in the excavation survey based on the confirmation of the individual unit and the crowd unit of the Silla ancient tombs and the formation process.

중공사막은 제조과정인 wet spining의 과정에서 defect가 형성될 수 있어 분리선택도에 큰 영향을 미친다. 이러한 defect의 처리 방법으로는 dipping method등의 방법이 현재 널리 쓰이고 있다. dipping method는 제조된 중공사막을 PDMS 등의 고분자용액 속으로 통과시켜 결과적으로 중공사막 표면에 얇은 고분자막이 형성되도록 하는 방법이다. 그러나 이러한 방법으로 중공사 막을 처리할 경우 고분자 용액이 pore내로 침입하거나 중력으로 인하여 용액이 아래쪽으로 몰려 하반부의 두께가 두꺼워진다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 반응기 내의 전극사이의 공간에서 substrate의 위치를 변화시켜가면서 thickness를 측정하여 중공사막의 plasma coating을 위한 기초 자료를 정립하여 중공사막 plasma 표면처리 장치 개발에 기여하고자 한다.

증편반죽의 발효에 따른 해면상의 조직(망상구조)형성능의 mechanism을 조사하기 위하여 반죽의 구성성분의 경시적 물성 및 효소(diastase 및 protease) 활성의 변화, 구성 전분 분획의 glucose chain length 변화 및 1% SDS에 의해서 용출되는 단백질 분획의 변화에 대해서 검토하였다. 발효가 진행됨에 따라 증편반죽의 pH는 감소한 반면 점성 및 부피는 발효경과 10시간가지 증가하다가 그 이후로는 약간 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 발효의 진행과 더불어 diastase의 활성은 증가하였으며, 쌀전분 분획 중 amylose의 함량은 약간 감소하였다. 그리고 전분분자의 $\alpha-1,6-glucoside$ 결합을 isoamylase(debranching enzyme)로 가수분해시킨 후 Sephadex G-75를 이용한 chromatogram 분석에 의하면 쌀가루 전분 분획과 증편반죽 전분 분획의 glucose chain length 분포는 거의 유사하지만 발효가 진행됨에 따라 중합도가 낮은 부분이 우선적으로 diastase의 작용을 받은 것이라고 생각되어진다. 한편, 발효가 진행된에 따라 protease의 활성은 증가하고 있었음에도 불구하고 증편반죽의 당에 의한 단백질 분획의 고분자화가 Suprose CL-12 column chromatogram 상에서 관찰되었는데, 이것은 아마도 발효과정 중 증편반죽에 공존하는 미생물들의 발효산물인 당질(gum질)을 매개로 한 단백질 분자의 회합에 의한 결과라고 생각되어진다. 따라서 이러한 결과를 미루어 볼 때 증편반죽의 망상구조 형성능은 발효과정 중 일어나는 당과 단백질간의 상호작용에 의한 결과라 생각되어진다.

A microfluidic method for the in situ production of monodispersed alginate hydrogels using biocompatible polymer gelation by crosslinker mass transfer is described. Gelation of the hydrogel was achieved in situ by the dispersed calcium ion in the microfluidic device. The capillary number (Ca) and the flow rate of the disperse phase which are important operating parameters mainly influenced the formation of three distinctive flow regions, such as dripping, jetting, and unstable dripping. Under the formation of dripping region, monodispersed alginate hydrogels having a narrow size distribution (C.V=2.71%) were produced in the microfluidic device and the size of the hydrogels, ranging from 30 to $60{\mu}m$, could be easily controlled by varying the flow rate, viscosity, and interfacial tension. This simple microfluidic method for the production of monodisperse alginate hydrogels shows strong potential for use in delivery systems of foods, cosmetics, inks, and drugs, and spherical alginate hydrogels which have biocompatibility will be applied to cell transplantation.

The method of etching tracks in PN-3 dosimeter has been applied to tracks of recoil protons from a neutron source. Both the etch and the detection response of PN-3 has been studied as a function of etched-track diameters against various parameters. We could obtain very useful informations about charge, energy, and mass of particles and the relationship between the track etching rate and the track forming procedure in order to analyze the particle recorded in the solid state track detector. The best etching condition could be found by means of changing the etching circumstances for various energies and particles in order to detect the charged particle accurately. It could be influenced widely that the polymer plastic detector could develep the detecting technique for the low energy level neutron and could be used as a neutron dosimeter in the radiation field such as the nuclear power station, the medical institute and the nondtructive testing institute.

Chitin deacetylase (CDA; EC 3.5.1.41) catalyzes the hydrolysis of N-acetamide bonds of chitin, converting it to chitosan. Chitosan has several applications in areas such as biomedicine, food ingredients, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and agriculture. In this paper, occurrence, assay and purification protocols, enzymatic characteristics, substrate specificity, and mode of action of microbial CDAs have been described. Several lines of evidence have substantiated the biological roles involved in cell wall formation and plant-pathogen interactions for fungal CDAs. The gene structure of CDAs has been compared with other family 4 carbohydrate esterases which deacetylate a wide variety of acetylated poly/oligo-saccharides. The use of CDAs for the conversion of chitin to chitosan, in contrast to the presently used chemical procedure, offers the possibility of a controlled, non-degradable process, resulting in the production of well-defined chitosan oligomers and polymers. Insect pathogen that can secrete high levels of chitin-metab­olizing enzymes including CDA can be a possible alternative for new pest management tools.

To understand contribution of thermophilic microorganisms in decomposition of litter deposits on shore of lakes, we surveyed a lakeshore litter deposit for bacteria growing at $60^{\circ}C$. Ten thermophilic isolates were selected for in-depth characterization, based on their high capacity to degrade high molecular weight organic compounds. Based on phylogenetic analysis on their 16S rRNA gene sequences, all isolates were identified as Geobacillus. The optimal growth temperature and pH of the strains ranged $55{\sim}60^{\circ}C$ and 6.0${\sim}$8.0, respectively. Salinity was inhibitory to the growth of the isolates, showing marked decrease of growth rates at 3% salinity. Based on activities of hydrolytic enzymes and profiles of carbohydrate utilization (determined by API 50 CHB kit), three G. stearothermophilus strains showed patterns clearly distinctive from other isolates. Two G. kaustophilus strains also demonstrated distinctiveness in their metabolic pattern and ecological parameters. However, ecological and metabolic profiles of the other five isolates were more variable and showed some degree of digression from their phylogenetic classification. Therefore, it could be concluded that endospore-forming thermophilic bacteria in lakeshore litter deposits contribute to degradation of organic materials with diverse ecological niches while having successions similar to microbial flora in compost. We propose that the thermophilic isolates and/or their thermo-tolerant enzymes can be applied to industrial processes as appropriate mixtures.

Polyurea has been investigated as a polymer matrix for composite materials because of its high mechanical strength. Although polyurea has a similar chemical structure to polyurethane, it has much higher strength and durability. In this study, the fabrication of polyurea composites reinforced with carbon nanotube (CNT) and graphene oxide (GO) is demonstrated to enhance the tensile strength of the glass fibers composite. Using FTIR and Raman spectroscopies, the chemical structures of polyurea, CNT, and GO are investigated. As a result, spectroscopy analysis reveals that the chemical structure of CNT, GO, and polyurea is maintained during the fabrication of the composite structure. Scanning electron microscopy reveals the uniform distribution of CNT and GO across the polyurea matrix. The reinforcement of 1 wt% CNT in polyurea enhances the tensile strength of CNT/polyurea composites. In contrast, the reinforcement of GO in polyurea induces the degradation of the tensile strength of GO/polyurea composites.
