손상된 조직이나 부위를 원상태로 회복하기 위한 대제 물질인 생체재료 개발에 관한 연구가 꾸준히 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 생체재료는 생체내에서 기능을 수행하기 위한 기계적 특성과 생물학적 특성을 갖추어야 한다. 생분해성 고분자는 금속재료에 비해 우수한 분해성으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 대부분의 생분해성 고분자는 약한 기계적 특성으로 사용범위가 제한적이다. 문제점의 해결을 위해 hydroxyapatie와 TCP등을 활용한 방법이 제시되어왔다. 이에 본 연구는 ${\beta}-TCP$ 첨가량에 따른 세라믹/고분자 복합체를 제조하여 다양한 기계적 효과를 평가하였다.

Biodegradable polymers have gained enormous attentions in the pharmaceutical and biomedical applications, especially in drug delivery. In this work, we report the synthesis and characteristics of high molecular weight polyoxalate with ~75000 Da. Hydrolytic degradation kinetics and degradation products were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography. Polyoxalate is a semicrystalline and thermally stable polymer with a glass transition temperature of ${\sim}35^{\circ}C$, which is suitable for drug delivery applications. The hydrophobic nature of polyoxalate allows it to be formulated into nanoparticles and encapsulate drugs using a conventional oil-in-water emulsion/solvent displacement method. Polyoxalate nanoparticles also exhibited excellent cytotoxicity profiles. It can be suggested that polyoxalate has great potential for numerous biomedical and pharmaceutical applications.

The microorganism isolated from soil was identified as Bacillus coagulans by morphological and biochemical analyses and API-50CH/B kit, which was an identification kit for Bacillus species, and named as B. coagulans DL-1. It produced an extracellular biopolymer. Maximum production of biopolymer was 5.00 $\pm$0.15 g/$\ell$ in a $7\ell$bioreactor with an aeration rate of 1.0 vvm and an agitation speed of 500 rpm when concentrations of glucose and yeast as the optimal carbon and nitrogen sources were 2.0% (w/v) and 0.25% (w/v), which were optimized with a flask scale. Gas chromatographic analysis showed that the biopolymer producded by B. coagulans DL-1 consisted of glucose and rhanmose and their molar ratios was about 9 : 1. Its average molecular weight was 2.80$\times$$10^5$ with gel permeation chromatographic (GPC) analysis.

In this study, the release experiments of drug were operated in the phosphate buffer solutions of pH 7.4 and pH 1.2 by using drug carriers(chitosan, chitosan hydrochloride, and sulfonated chitosan)coated by poly(DL-lactide) with prednisolone for delivery drug. The release time of drug was more delayed in pH 7.4 than in pH 1.2. The release time of according to the kinds of drug carrier was delayed in the order of chitosan, sulfonated chitosan, and chitosan hydrochloride. In short, the formulation allows biodegradable coated monolithic polymetic matrices to suppress the burst effect of the drug release mechanism, which led to the sustained release pattern.

Optical microscope, SEM and fluorescent microscope were used for qualitative and morphological studies of the attachment bacteria on PE substratum under anaerobic condition. The observation of optical microscopic has demonstrated that the initial attachment of bacteria began in crevices of surface. In SEM photographs, shape and structure of biofilm could be observed, but bacteria species and methanogens was not identified. A large number of methanogenic bacteria were showed on the surface of PE substratum by fluorescence under 480nm of radiation. It was estimated that methanogenic bacteria was related to initial attachment of bacteria under anaerobic condition.

Colloidal gold with a conducting polymer (e.g., polyaniline) bound on the metal surfaces has been used for the generation of conductimetric signal in a membrane strip immunosensor. Since polyaniline itself at a low pH range revealed a low conductivity, an approach of doping the polymer with a lithium salt was used. As an alternative method, a self-doped (i.e., pH-independent) sustance such as leucoemeraldine base sulfonated polyaniline (LEB-SPAN) can be used as signal generator. It was also highly soluble in water and, thus, such a selected polymer was expected to support a satisfactory property as a label of the immunosensor.

As an alternative for the traditional materials packed in biofilters treating gaseous VOCs, a novel packing material has been developed and tested. In the packing material(named as Hydrogel Bead, HB), pollutant-degrading microorganisms were immobilized in hydrogel consisted of alginate, polyvinyl alcohol(PVA), and powdered activated carbon. A closed-bottle study showed that the HB rapidly removed gaseous styrene without the losses of adsorption and biodegradation capacity. Biofilter column experiments using the HBs also demonstrated that greater than 95% of removal efficiencies were found at an inlet styrene loading rate of $245g/m^3/hr$, which was higher biofilter performance than other elimination capacity reported earlier. Furthermore, when the inlet styrene concentration increased stepwise, the adsorption played an important role in overall styrene removals. The absorbed styrene was found to be biodegraded in the following low inlet loading condition. Consequently, the new HB material is able to successfully minimize the drawbacks of activated carbon(necessity of regeneration) and biological processes(low removal capacity at dynamic loading conditions), and maximize the overall performance of biofilter systems treating VOCs.

The microbial immobilization media with curdlan and activated carbon which has great immobilization capacity has been developed. Characteristics of porosity and mechanical strength of this support media are dependent on manufacturing method. The support media showed the best cell immobilization performance when the ratio of curdlan and activated carbon was 30 g/L to 6 g/L in this study. The immobilization of iron-oxidizing bacteria on the supporting particles was photographed with a scanning electron microscope. Since cell concentration on the surface of supporting particle increased with the reaction time, the iron oxidation rate also increased.

식품의 가공 분야뿐만 아니라 제약 공정 등의 생물산업 분야에서는 유변학(Rheology)이 차지하고 있는 위치는 매우 중요하며 물질의 유변물성을 정확히 파악하지 않고서는 정밀도를 요하는 가공 공정을 이룰 수 없어 우수한 제품을 생산하기 어렵다. 특히 작품 압출 성형분야에서 생물고분자(biopolymer) 원료의 유변 물성은 압출 성형시 중요한 역학을 하며 더 좋은 압출 성형 장치의 설계와 압출 공정의 제어를 위해서는 원료에 패한 물리적 성질의 이해와 압출 성형 장치 내에서 일어나는 변화를 이해해야 한다. (중략)

Alginate derivatives possessing various lengths of alkyl amine (C8, C12, C16) chain were prepared by oxidation followed by reductive amination of alginate and the products were characterized by spectral analysis. The surface tension critical micelle concentration (c. m. c) and solubility of a hydrophobic compound azobenzene were examined. Series of synthesized alginate-derived polymeric surfactants(APSs) reduced the surface tension. The dissolving capacity of APSs toward azobenzene was about half that of SDS. In order to investigate the capacity of metal adsorption Co and Pb were selected as a representative metal. The overall removal efficiency of APSs were high compared with that of alginate at pH 3.5 and 7 respectively. Major mechanism of the heavy metal removal is the complex of metal with carboxyl group.
