저분자량의 가스와 물이 물리적 결합으로 이루어진 가스 하이드레이트는 상대적으로 많은 양의 가스가 포집될 수 있다는 특성을 이용하여 다양한 분야에서 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 매립지에서 발생되는 매립가스를 하이드레이트의 원리를 이용하여 효율적으로 저장 및 수송하기위한 공정에 적용하기위해 필요한 매립지 가스 하이드레이트의 상평형에 대한 특성을 분석하고자한다. 일반적으로 매립지 가스에는 메탄이 약 50%, 이산화탄소가 약 35%, 질소가 약 6% 포함되어 있으며 그 밖에 산소, 수분, 암모니아 황화수소 메르캅탄 등 할로겐 계통을 포함한 탄화수소계화합물 수십여종이 포함되어 있다. 이러한 매립지가스를 하이드레이트화 하기위해서는 매립지가스에 포함된 다양한 성분들이 하이드레이트 형성에 미치는 영향을 알아볼 필요가 있다. 특히 황화수소의 경우 독성이 있으며, 실제 플랜트에서 장비의 부식등 악영향을 미치므로 이와 관련한 기초 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 메탄, 이산화탄소, 황화수소가 각각 49.9%, 50.05%, 500ppm의 조성으로 이루어진 혼합가스를 이용하여 하이드레이트 생성 및 해리 시 거동을 측정하고 그 상평형 영역을 기존데이터와 비교분석 하였다. 25bar, 36bar에서 측정한 상평형 데이터는 한국해양대학교 에서 측정한 결과와 마찬가지로 실제 상평형 영역이 CSMHYD 프로그램으로 예측한 것보다 하이드레이트의 안정영역이 약 2bar 정도 높게 형성되는 것을 확인하였으며, $CH_4+CO_2+H_2S$ 혼합가스 하이드레이트의 생성 시 mol consumption은 $CH_4+CO_2$ 혼합가스 하이드레이트와 유사하게 나타났다. 이 결과로 유추하건대, 황화수소의 첨가는 하이드레이트의 형성 압력을 높이지만, 하이드레이트 형성률에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않는다고 할 수 있다.

Extended Huckel Calculation of cis-and trans-dichloro diammine platinum(II), dichloroethylene diamine platinum(II) and their N-mono, di, tri and tetra-methylated or ethylated ones were carried out to investigate their anticancer activity. It was found that the net charge of two chlorine atoms in cis-isomers are greater than those in trans-ones and Pt-Cl bond energies of the former are less than that of the latter, indicating that Pt-Cl bond in cis-isomers has greater ionic character than that in trans-ones and Cl atoms in the former are easier to dissociated as Cl- than those in the latter. Also, the values of $b_{2g}-b_{1g}$ energy difference, ${\Delta}_1$ were found to be greater in cis-isomers than in trans-one without exceptions. For the substitution of methyl for H atom in ammine and ethylenediamine Pt-Cl bond strength shows the tendency to increase with increasing in number of methyl group. Accordingly, We believe that two Cl atoms in $PtLCl_2$-complexes (L: NH$_3$, en) are dissociated in the first step of the action of anticancer.

Adsorption of a water molecule on a Si (001) surface and its dissociation were studied using density functional theory to study the distribution of -OH fragments on the Si surface. The Si (001) surface was composed of Si dimers, which buckle in a zigzag pattern below the order-disorder transition temperature to reduce the surface energy. When a water molecule approached the Si surface, the O atom of the water molecule favored the down-buckled Si atom, and the H atom of the water molecule favored the up-buckled Si atom. This is explained by the attractions between the negatively charged O of the water and the positively charged down-buckled Si atom and between the positively charged H of the water and the negatively charged up-buckled Si atom. Following the adsorption of the first water molecule on the surface, a second water molecule adsorbed on either the inter-dimer or intra-dimer site of the Si dimer. The dipole-dipole interaction of the two adsorbed water molecules led to the formation of the water dimer, and the dissociation of the water molecules occurred easily below the order-disorder transition temperature. Therefore, the 1/2 monolayer of -OH on the water-terminated Si (001) surface shows a regular distribution. The results shed light on the atomic layer deposition process of alternate gate dielectric materials, such as $HfO_2$.

The electrical conductances for the thorium (IV) complexes with crown ethers have been measured in DMSO, and water solvents, and the oxidation-reduction reaction mechanisms, electron number and diffusion coefficients in the reversible reduction process have been examined by polarography and cyclic voltammography. The dissociation mole ratio of $Th^{4+}$ and nitrate ion are 1:1 and in aprotic solvent, and 1:4 in protic solvent like as water. The limiting molar conductances of all complexes in aprotic solvent have been found to be in the range of $92.2{\times}159$ $ohm^{-1}cm^2mol^{-1}$. In aprotic solvent, DMSO, the reduction of each complex is reversible by one electron reduction of one step, and the range of diffusion coefficients is obserbed to be $5.83\;10^{-6}{\sim}6.90{\times}10^{-6}$. The complexes which have reduction step were hydrolyzed above at 1.8volt with reference saturated calomel electrode, generating the hydrogen gas. The reaction mechanisms of thorium (IV)-crown ether complexes appear as follows. ${Th_m(IV)L_n(H_2O)_x(NO_3)_{4y}}_=^{DMSO} {\overline{{Th_m(IV)L_n(H_2O)_x(NO_3)_{4y-1}}}^+ + NO_3-$

The kinetic and equilibrium characteristics of copper extraction by salicylaldoxime in chloroform and benzene were investigated. Equilibrium constants such as dissociation constant, distribution coefficient of salicylaldoxime and stability constant, distribution coefficient and molar extinction coefficient of oxime-Cu chelate were determined from absorbance. Extracted species of Cu-chelate were found to be ${\bar{CuR_2}}$. Overall initial extraction rate of copper by salicylaldoxime in chloroform was expressed by the following equation : $R=k[Cu^{2+}]{\bar{[HR]}}^{0.5}/[H^+]^{0.4}$.

Nano-sized nickel powders were prepared by evaporating the bulk nickel metarial using transferred arc thermal plasma. Nitrogen gases are easily dissociated to atomic nitrogen in thermal plasma and they are quickly dissolved in molten nickel. Super-saturated atomic nitrogen in molten nickel is recombined to nitrogen gas because of the relatively low temperature of nickel surface. Generally, the recombine reaction of atomic nitrogen is exothermic, so bulk nickel is quickly evaporated to nickel vapor due to the thermal energy of recombine reaction. The particle size of nickel powder was controlled by $N_2$ used as the diluting gas. It was observed that as the diluting gas flow rate was increase, the particle size was decreased and the particle size distribution was narrowed. The average particle size at 250 l/min of the diluting gas was 202 nm analyzed by means of the particle size analyzer (PSA).

In this study, the inclusion phenomena of tetrahydrofuran + 3-hydroxytetrahydrofuran + $CH_4$ clathrate hydrates were explored via thermodynamic and spectroscopic approaches. The phase equilibria of the double hydrates - THF + $CH_4$ and 3-OH THF + $CH_4$ clathrate hydrates - were determined by pressure-temperature trace during hydrate formation and dissociation, and the result revealed that the equilibrium pressures were shifted to lower pressure region compared to pure $CH_4$ hydrate. The powder X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that the double hydrates of THF + 3-OH THF formed structure II type clathrate hydrates with $CH_4$. The dispersive Raman spectra of the double clathrate hydrates also exhibited that $CH_4$ can be trapped in both $5^{12}6^4$ and $5^{12}$ cages whereas THF and 3-OH THF were encaged in $5^{12}6^4$ cage.

Gestures accompanied by scientific discourses play an important role in constructing mental models and making model-based inferences. According to embodied cognition literature, gestures can be a source of recognition of the mental models of students and help them in changing naive beliefs about science. This study intends to compare the gestures of scientists with that of middle school students in explaining scientific phenomena and to explore the relationship between gestures and scientific discourse. In the study, 10 scientists and 10 middle school students participated in clinical interviews and the tests of knowledge and self-efficacy. Participants engaged in one-on-one clinical interviews with semi-structured questions about three tasks regarding the molecular movement and the state change of matter. Four researchers carried out open coding and applied a constant comparison method in order to analyze video-recorded gestures. This study found four themes (feature of gesture, use of gesture, content of gesture, function of gesture) about the differences of gestures between scientists and middle school students. Scientists used more diverse and elaborate gestures systematically and frequently in the interview. Although students used gestures in their scientific talk and reasoning, the gestures of students were not well grounded on scientific knowledge and had different functions from those of scientists. The findings revealed that gestures can represent underlying cognition and strengthen scientific thinking. We should encourage students to use gestures as a tool to understand scientific concepts and make inferences.

Three low-molecular compounds were isolated from methanol extracts of pear (Pyrus pyrifolia N. cv. Chuhwangbae) fruit peels using solvent fractionation, various types of column chromatogrphy (Diaion HP-20, Sephadex LH-20, and silica gel), and high performance liquid chromatography with an assay guided by 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical-scavenging activity. The isolated compounds were identified as 2-carboxyl-4(1H)-quinolinone (kynurenic acid, 1) from butanol fraction, cis-p-coumaric acid (2) from ethyl acetate-acidic fraction, and vanillin (3) from the ethyl acetate-phenolic fraction, respectively. These isolated compounds were confirmed on the basis of the spectroscopic data of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance. This is the first time that compounds 1-3 were isolated and identified in pear.

Streptavidin, a protein produced by Streptomyces avidinii, strongly binds up to four molecules of vitamin H, d-biotin exhibiting the dissociation constant of about 10⁻¹⁵ M. This strong binding affinity has been applied for detection and characterization of numerous biological molecules suggesting expression and purification of functional streptavidin should be very useful for the application of this streptavidin-biotin interaction. To express a soluble streptavidin in Escherichia coli, We synthesized streptavidin genes and cloned into pET-22b plasmid, which uses T7 RNA polymerase/T7 promoter expression systems containing pelB leader for secretion into periplasmic space and six polyhistidine tags at C-terminus for purification of expressed proteins. Although streptavidin is toxic to Escherichia coli due to strong biotin binding property, streptavidin was expressed very sufficiently in a range of 10-20 mg/ml. In SDS-PAGE, the size of purified protein was shown as 17 kDa in denatured condition (boiling) and 68 kDa in native condition (without boiling) suggesting tetramerization of monomeric subunit by non-covalent association. Further analysis by size-exclusion chromatography supported streptavidin’s tetrameric structure as well. In addition, soluble streptavidin detected biotinylated proteins in westernblot indicating its functional activity to biotin. Taken these results together, it concluded that our simple expression system was able to show high yield, homotetrameric formation and biotin binding activity analogous to natural streptavidin.
