Detection method was developed using a simply designed photochemical reactor made of teflon coil and low pressure mercury lamp. This method of UV photolysis of analytes followed by UV, fluorescence and electrochemical detection was found to be useful for four thiocarbamates. Analytes eluting from the column are irradiated with a high flux of 254 nm UV light, so that they change to either fluorescent active forms or highly electrochemically sensitive products. Appling this technique to the UV detection, thiocarbamates were converted into long wavelength absorbing products upon UV irradiation. In fluorescence detector four thiocarbamates are not detected at nonirradiated condition but fluorescence signals of MPTC, CPTC photolysates are appeared after irradiation with UV light. The electrochemical detection for the determination of thiocarbamates was enhanced up to 5∼20 fold signal after UV irradiation, compared to that of the nonirradiated. The detection limit of thiocarbamates on electrochemical detector was 13.3∼0.02 ng under pH 7.0, ionic strength $0.5{\times}10^{-2}$ M, phosphate buffer solution. Adducts produced by reaction of photolysates and OPA-MERC in the reaction coil were monitored at 425 nm with fluorescence detector, and one of the photolysates was primary amine.

저진공(1 kPa~ 100 kPa)은 대기압 측정, 비행고도, 기체의 온도 측정, 질량의 부력 보정, 레이저의 굴절률 측정등에 사용되는 영역으로 과학적 중요성을 갖고 있다. 또한 대기압 이상의 압력 측정과 고진공 측정의 경계적 역할도 수행하고 있어 압력 표준기의 국제 비교에 필수적으로 권장되는 역역이다. 이 영역에 주로 사용되는 압력 표준기는 수은 압력계(Mercury manometer)와 분동식 압력계(Deadweight piston gauge or Pressure)가 있다. 이들은 이동이 불편하거나 불가능하므로 표준기의 국제 비교에 사용되는 전달 표준기로는 보다 이동이 간편한 탄성 압력계인 CDG(Capacitance diaphragm Gauge)가 있다. 이 게이지는 반도체 산업의 공정 제어용으로도 많이 사용되고 있다. 그러나 게이지와 함께 사용되는 컨트롤러의 부피가 크고 무거우며 영점 이동이 커서 측정때 마다 재조정하여야 하는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 같은 단점을 극복하기 위해 수정빔 진동형 진공 센서를 잔달 표준기로 사용하는 것에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 수정빔 진동형 압력 센서는 수정빔으 공진주파수가 스트레인에 비례하는 것을 이용하여 제작된 센서로 주로 대기압 이상의 고압 측정에 많이 사용되고 있다. 먼저 수정빔의 압력과 주파수간의 관계를 측정하고 또한 내장된 수정 온도센서의 공진 주파수를 측정하여 온도 보상을 위한 자료로 사용하였다. 규격에 나와 있는 수정빔의 기하학적 형상으로부터 거동에 관한 이론 모델식을 구하고 압력교정 자료로부터 얻어진 데이터를 이 식과 비교 분석하여 적합한 특성식과 인자를 구하였으며 게이지의 불확도를 추정하였다.모델은 길이가 유한한 0-차원 실린더 모델로 가정하였고, 이에 대한 기하학적 성질 및 열역학적 성질은 유효계수를 고려하여 산출하였다. 진공용기 이중 벽 내부로 흐르는 질소가스의 유량과 온도의 계산은 진공용기 내벽과 외벽을 각각 독립적인 열전달 요소로 가정하여 구성한 모델을 이용하였다. 전체 해석에서 각 열전달 요소의 비열 값은 온도에 따라 변화하는 비열의 특성을 반영하였으며. 진공용기와 플라즈마 대향 부품의 방사율(emissivity)은 앞서 가정했던 각 온도 상승 곡선에 대해서 각각 0.1, 0.2, 1.3의 경우를 가정하여 계산하였다. 직선적으로 증가하는 온도 상승 곡선중 2$0^{\circ}C$/hr의 온도상승율을 갖는 경우가 다른 베이킹 시나리오 모델에 비해 효과적이라 생각되며 초대 필요 공급열량은 200kW 정도로 산출되었다. 실질적인 수치를 얻기 위해 보다 고차원 모델로의 해석이 필요하리라 생각된다. 끝으로 장기적인 관점에서 KSTAR 장치의 베이킹 계획도 살펴본다.습파라미터와 더불어, 본 연구에서 새롭게 제시된 주기분할층의 파라미터들이 모형의 학습성과를 높이기 위해 함께 고려된다. 한편, 이러한 학습과정에서 추가적으로 고려해야 할 파라미터 갯수가 증가함에 따라서, 본 모델의 학습성과가 local minimum에 빠지는 문제점이 발생될 수 있다. 즉, 웨이블릿분석과 인공신경망모형을 모두 전역적으로 최적화시켜야 하는 문제가 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이 문제를 해결하기 위해서, 최근 local minimum의 가능성을 최소화하여 전역적인 학습성과를 높여 주는 인공지능기법으로서 유전자알고리즘기법을 본 연구이 통합모델에 반영하였다. 이에 대한 실

In this paper, we analyse empirically the relations between ownership structure and cash holdings of firms listed on Korea Securities Market and Kosdaq Market of Korea Exchange. The main results of this study can be summarized as follows. Cash holdings increase as large shareholder's equity holdings increase. Cash holdings increase as the difference between first largest shareholder's and second largest shareholder's equity holdings increase, and cash holdings increase as the ownership concentration increase. Managerial ownership exert a non-linear effects on cash holdings. So to speak, at lower level of managerial ownership, managers hold more cash to pursue their own interests at the expense of minority shareholders, but at higher level of managerial ownership, the interests of managers and shareholders are aligned, and also at highest level of managerial ownership, managers hold more cash to pursue their own interests at the expense of minority shareholders. Cash holdings increase larger in owner-controlled firm than in management-controlled firm. These results support the expropriation of minority shareholders hypothesis that large shareholders can extract private benefits from corporate resources under their control at the expense of minority shareholders. This paper contributes to defining information value of large shareholder's equity holdings on cash holdings for a firms' other stakeholders such as investors and creditors, and to strengthening a legal and institutional safeguard for external minority shareholders. Ownership concentration might have negatively affected the evolution of the legal and institutional frameworks for corporate governance and the manner in which economic activity is conducted. It could be a formidable barrier to future policy reform.

21 세기에 접어들면서 인터넷을 통한 정보 통신의 발달과 개인 휴대용 이동 통신기기의 활발한 보급에 따라 휴대형 전자기기들의 소형화와 고성능화로 나아가고 있다. 이러한 전자기기에 사용될 IC의 내장 메모리 또한 집적화 및 고속화, 저 전력화가 이루어져야 한다. 이러한 전자기기들에 필수적인 압전 세라믹스 부품 중 압전 부저 및 기타 음향 부품등을 각종 전자기기와 무선 전화기에 채택함으로써 압전 부품에 대한 수요와 생산이 계속 증가할 것으로 전망된다. 이처럼 압전 세라믹스를 이용한 그 응용 범위는 대단히 방대하며, 현재 모든 압전 부품들은 PZT 계열 재료로 만들어지고 있고, 차후 모두 비납계열 재료로 대체될 것이 확실시된다. Pb의 환경오염은 이미 오래전부터 큰 문제점으로 인식되고 있었으며 그 일례로 미국의 캘리포니아 주에서는 1986년부터 약 800종의 유해물질, 그 중에서도 Pb 사용을 300ppm 이하로 규제하는 Proposition 65를 제정하여 실행하고 있다. 그리고 2003년 2월에 EU (European Union) 에서 발표한 전자산업에 관한 규제 사항중 하나인 위험물질 사용에 관한 지칭 (Restriction of Hazardous Substance, RoHS) 에 의하면, 2006 년 7월부터 전기 전자 제품에 있어서 위험 물질인 Pb을 포함한 중금속 물질(카드늄, 수은, 6가 크롬, 브롬계 난연재)의 사용을 금지한다고 발표하였다. 비록 전자세라믹 부품에 함유된 Pb는 예외 사항으로 두었지만 대체 가능한 물질이 개발되면 전자세라믹 부품에서도 Pb의 사용을 금지한다고 규정하였다. 더욱이 일본은 2005 년부터 Pb 사용을 금지시켰다. 이와 같이 Pb가 환경에 미치는 영향 때문에 비납계 강유전 물질 및 압전 세라믹스 재료에 대한 연구가 전 세계적으로 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 비납계 강유전체의 patterning을 위해서, NKN 박막을 고밀도 플라즈마원인 ICP를 이용하여 식각 mechanism을 연구하고, 식각변수에 따른 식각 공정을 최적화에 대하여 연구하였다. 가스 혼합비에 따라 식각 할때 700 W의 RF 전력과 - 150 V의 직류 바이어스 전압을 인가하였고, 공정 압력은 2 Pa, 기판 온도는 $23^{\circ}C$로 고정하였다. 식각 속도는 Tencor사의 Alpha-step 500을 이용하여 측정되었으며 식각 시 NKN 박막 표면과 라디칼과의 화학적인 반응을 분석하고 식각 메커니즘을 규명하기 위하여 XPS(x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)를 사용하였다.

Objectives : To evaluate the elect of glutathione(GSH) on lead induced modulation of nitric oxide(NO) synthesis, and to examine how lead modulates NO production in macrophages. Methods : This study was observed in a culture of RAW 264.7 cells, which originated from a tumor in a Balb/c mouse that was induced by the Abelson murine leukemia virus. The compounds investigated were lead chloride, N-acetyl-cystein(NAC), and Buthionine Sulfoximine( BSO). Results : ATP synthesis in RAW 264.7 cells was unchanged by each lead concentration exposure in a dose dependent manner. The NO synthesis was decreased when exposed to lead($PbCl_2$) concentration $0.5{\mu}M$. The presence of $300{\mu}M$ NAC, used as a pretreatment in the culture medium, caused the recovery of the lead induced decrease in NO synthesis, but in the presence of $300{\mu}M$ BSO as a pretreatment, there was no recoverey. Pretreatment with NAC and BSO had no affect on ATP synthesis at any of the lead concentrations used. Conclusions : These results indicated that GSH has a protective effect toward lead toxicity, and suggested that the inhibition of NO production in macrophage due to lead toxicity may be related to cofactors of iNOS (inducible nitric oxide synthase)

The free fatty acids were prepared from the ethereal fraction of Panax ginseng. The prepared acids were methylated with diazomethzne. The methyl esters of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids were separated by the means of mercuric acetate method and column chromatography. The separated methyl esters were gaschromatographed and analyzed. The obtained conclusions were as follows. 1. The root of six-year old Korean Panax ginseng contains 0.28% of free fatty acids. 2. It was found that 24 kinds of free fatty acids existed in Panax ginseng. Among them, 22 kinds of free fatty acids were indentified by the gas chromatogram and the graphical method but the rest, 2 kinds of them were not identified by the only gas chromatographical data. The amount of each free fatty acid which was not identified was predominant and they were supposed to be unusual free fatty acids which would not commonly exist in nature. These results were shown in Table III. 3. $L_{EE}$ and $L_{EE}$ reported that n18:3 existed in Panax ginseng. However, in this experiment, n18:3 did not exist in Panax ginseng, and instead, peak XVI appeared between n18:2 and n18:3 as shown in Fig. 9.

Polyurethane waterproof (PW) coatings are increasingly demanded in Korea for repairing cracks on old building roofs and construction of many sporting facilities. Calcium carbonate, a common filler, is incorporated in PW compositions. In this study, PW coatings were prepared by substituting a part of calcium carbonate with fly ash. The maximum amounts of calcium carbonate which can be substituted by fly ash obtained in the cyclone and bag filter dust collectors were 20 and 10%, respectively. It was found that the curing rate of PWs ran be controlled by varying the amount of Pb-octoate catalyst. The elongations at break as well as tensile strength and tear strength of PW coatings containing fly ash could also be adjusted such that their values were comparable to those of a standard PW coating by varying relative amounts of some components. However, the amount of cadmium, mercury, and lead leached from PW coatings containing fly ash obtained from the bag filter collector exceeded the respective allowed upper limits, mainly due to the initial high contents of them in the fly ash. On the other hand, PW coatings containing fly ash obtained from the cyclone collector exhibited better mechanical properties and did not release any significant amounts of the heavy metals. Thus, it was concluded that PW coatings containing fly ash can be utilized for practical applications as long as an appropriate fly ash is used.

The objective of this study was to verify the stability of nutrient composition by using herbal medicine by-products as an alternative food source and to examine the growth effect on Protaeria brevitarsis seulensis larvae. As a result of comparing the nutritional components of food source, crude protein, crude fat, and crude ash content, except crude fiber content, was high in both non-fermented and fermented medicinal herbal by-products. Especially, crude protein content was highest. Cadmium, lead, mercury, and other heavy metals were not detected and thus stability as alternative food was confirmed. The growth comparison based on the feeding sources showed no significant difference between the fermented oak sawdust fed control group and the herbal medicine by-products fed laboratory group from week 1 to week 3. The weight of a 4 week larva was 0.137 g in the control group and 0.671 g in the laboratory group and so began to reveal differences at a significant level (p<0.05). As a result of comparing weights of Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis larvae according to the level of herbal medicine by-product addition, HMB40 recorded the heaviest weight in week 7. Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in each body weights of HMB40 and HMB80 at week 5 (p<0.05). These results indicate that if the shipping date of an edible insect is a third instar larva, it arrives at the time of shipment at week 5. Thus feeding HMB40 and HMB80 at the 5th week is the most effective.

Leaching chracteristics of Andong-dam sediment was conducted for heavy metal and nutrients. Five mixed sediment samples were prepared and leaching was conducted under aerobic and anaerobic condition for 60 days. Cd, Cu, Pb, Cr, Zn, Hg, As, Fe, Mn, phosphorus, and nitrogen were analyzed at each sampling time. The leaching rate of phosphorus was higher in anaerobic condition comparing with that of under aerobic condition. Some samples showed higher than the water-quality level IV. In case of As and Cd which showed highest contamination level in the sediment, leached concentration were 0.028 mg/L and 0.003 mg/L in maximum, respectively. The leached concentration is below than the lake water quality standard of Korea. Other heavy metals including Cu, Pb, and Cr also showed similar trend. Five step sequential extraction showed that easily extractable 1-2 step portion such as ion-exchangeable and adsorbed one was less than 10% and the most of the portion was residual. For As and Cd, the residual portion were 80% and 95% respectively indicating the risk by the heavy metal leaching into the lake for a short period was not high in comparing with the contamination levels.
