고체 고분자 전해질에 대한 연구는 1979년 wright와 Armand에 처음 시작된 이래로 지난 20여년간 연구가 계속적으로 지속되고 있다. 전지의 적용되기 위해 전해질이 갖추어야 할 조건중에 이온전도도가 상온에서 10-4 S/cm 이상의 전도도를 나타내야 하지만 지금까지 연구되고 있는 여러 고체 고분자 전해질은 이런 조건을 만족시키지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 이런 상온에서의 이온 전도성을 향상시키기 위해 여러 종류의 실리카와 세라믹 계열의 첨가제를 첨가하여 이온전도성의 향상을 꾀하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 고체 고분자 전해질의 host polymer로써 분자량 400,000 의 Polyethylene oxide를 사용하였으며 Lithuim salt로는 Lithium (bisperfluroethylsulfonyl)imide(3M)를 기본적으로 사용하였다. 여기에 가소제의 역활로써 (3-cyanopropyl)methylsiloxane cyclics를 첨가하였고 표면그룹이 CH3와 OH기로 이루어진 기능성 나노 실리카를(<11nm)이용하여 함량별 전기 화학적 특성 및 기본 물성을 측정하였다. 기본적으로 이 네 가지 물질을 유기용매 Acetonitril에 잘 용해하여 Solid Casting방법으로 80-100 마이크로의 복합고분자 전해질을 제조하였다. Homogeneous하고 uniform한 필름 제조하기 위해 9$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 24h 동안 실시하였다. 제조되어진 복합고분자전해질은 XRD를 통하여 결정성을 조사하였고 DSC를 이용하여 유리 전이온도 및 결정화도를 조사하였다. 복합고체고분자의 전기화학적 성질을 평가하기 위해 blocking electrode를 제작하여 임피던스 스펙트로 스코피를 이용하여 이온전도성을 측정하였다. 또한 복합 고분자 전해질의 온도의존성에 대해서도 조사하였다. 또한 실제 전지의 작동구간에서의 전해질의 안정성을 확인하기 위해 LSV를 측정하였고. Li metal을 사용하여 non-blocking electrode를 제작하여 복합고분자 전해질과의 계면저항을 측정하였다.

Objective : Brainstem hemorrhages usually result in much higher mortality and morbidty than any other intracranial vascular lesions. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the relationship of the radiological classification of the lesions and the clinical outcomes, and to evaluate the value of such classification on the choice of management modality. Method : Thirty seven patients with primary brainstem hemorrhage were managed medically or surgically between Oct. 1995 and Mar. 1998. The lesions were classified as two groups based on radiological findings as follows : Focal subependymal hematoma(group I, n＝7) and diffuse tegmentobasilar hemorrhage(group II, n＝30). The outcomes at discharge were retrospectively reviewed according to such classification. Result : The most common clinical pictures and radiological findings in each group were as followings : 1) Group I : focal compressive lesion which displaces rather than destroys brain tissue. It occurs in a younger age group and causes neurological deficits which are often partially reversible. Operative hematoma evacuation was performed in 43.3%. Their mean improved Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS) score was 4.7. 2) Group II : hypertensive brain stem hemorrhage. It usually causes a diffuse lesion occurring in an older age group and most often associated with profound irreversible neurological deficits which are often fatal. Operative hematoma evacuation was performed in 16.7%. Their mean improved GCS score was 1.4. In both conservatively treated group I and II has no siginificant clinical improvement. Conclusion : Although there is an overlap among them and the size of the group is small, the pathophysiologic classification of this lesion based on clinical features and radiological findings may be useful for decision of treatment method.

Object : Gliosis becomes a physical and mechanical barrier to axonal regeneration. Reactive gliosis induced by hypoxic brain injury is involved with up-regulation of CD81 and GFAP. The current study was to examine the effect of the Angelica Sinens on CD81 and GFAP regulation after hypoxic brain injury in the astrocyte. Methods : MTT assay was performed to examine cell viability, and cell based ELISA, western blot and PCR were used to detect the expression of CD81 and GFAP. Results : The following results were obtained: 1. Using ELISA, western blot and PCR from the astrocyte after hypoxic injury, CD81 and GFAP expression was seen to have increased. 2. After the administration of Angelica Sinens extract to astrocyte following hypoxic injury, CD81 and GFAP expression was down regulated significantly. The water extract of Angelica Sinens prevented cell destruction by hypoxic induced with $CoCl_2$. Conclusion : These results indicate that Angelica Sinens could suppress reactive gliosis, which disturbs astrocyte regeneration after hypoxic brain injury by controlling the expression of CD81 and GFAP.

Object: Reactive gliosis that is induced by central nervous system (CNS) injury is involved with up-regulation of CD81 and GFAP. The present study was to examine the effect of the Salvia miltiorrhiza on CD81 and GFAP regulation following brain injury. Methods: Immunoblot and ELISA methods were used to define the level of CD81 and GFAP in the astrocyte cultured from rat brain. Then immunohistochemistry was used to detect CD81 and GFAP in the injured rat brain. Results: The following results were obtained. 1. We did western blot and ELISA to detect the protein isolated from the whole cell and they showed that CD81 and GFAP decreased. 2. We injected Salvia miltiorrhiza extract intravenously to brain-injured rats for 7 days and 30 days, and the immunohistochemistry analyses showed that CD81 and GFAP decreased significantly. Conclusion: These results indicate that Salvia miltiorrhiza could suppress the reactive gliosis, which disturbs the neural regeneration following CNS injury, by controlling the expression of CD81 and GFAP.

Seasonal distributions of nutrients and particulate organic matter were investigated in Asan Bay, Korea. Most of nutrients were high in August and low in February. The atomic ratios of inorganic nitrogen to phosphorous were close to Redfield ratio except in May when the ratio was 24.8. In May, nutrient concentrations except phosphorous decreased with salinity until $31.5{\sim}32.0%0$, but the concentrations increased again with salinity, impling that there were nutrient input sources within the estuary. Howerer, significant inverse relationships between nutrients and salinity in August suggest that nutrient sources were river discharge. Maximum chlorophyll a concentrations occurred in May. Relatively low ratios of $R_b$ to $R_a$($R_b$: fluorescence before acidification; $R_a$: fluorescence after acidification) during the study periods indicate that phytoplankton were not in good physiological condition. Relatively low ratio of particulate biogenic silica(PBSi) to particulate organic carbon(POC) and high ratios of PBSi and POC to chlorophyll a during the study periods suggest input of non-living detrital PBSi and POC from bottom in Asan Bay, where strong tidal mixing occurs.

Recently, there are increasing social needs for stable supply of electric power and securing high quality of information and communication services. In this work, to propose the effective protection countermeasures of information-oriented equipments against lightning surges, the protection effects of surge protective devices(SPDs) were experimentally investigated using actual-sized test circuits in various installation conditions. As a result, it was found that the protection effect of SPDs is quite different depending on the factors, such as the grounding system of power source, numbers of branch circuits, wiring method of grounding leads, and etc. In case of installing SPDs for information-oriented equipments, including all electric power lines and communication lines, the common grounding should be the most effective. Wiring method containing grounding leads with power lines in metal conduit is suitable to improve the surge cutoff performance of SPDs.

The production of enzymes that help digestion, assimilation of essential nutrients, and prevent pathogenic bacteria are important for probiotics used in aquaculture. The objective of this study was to investigate enzyme activities for macromolecular organic matters and antimicrobial properties of the selected potential probiotics isolated from gut of surf clam (Tresus keenae) against well-known shellfish-pathogenic bacteria. Among 65 isolates from guts of 60 surf clams, seven Bacillus strains with outstanding degradation capability of macromolecule organic matter were selected as potential probiotics as follows: TKI01 (B. vietnamensis), TKI02, TKI26 (B. thuringiensis), TKI14, TKI32, TKI42 (B. amyloliquefaciens), and TKI18 (B. stratosphericus). After in vitro antimicrobial activity test was performed against five shellfish-pathogenic bacteria including Listonella anguillarum, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, V. splendidus, V. harveyi, V. tubiashii, PCR assay was performed to detect bacteriocin-producing strain. PCR results revealed that the five Bacillus strains possessed diverse bacteriocin genes including ericinA, coagulin, surfactin, iturin, bacyllomicin, fengycin, bacylisin, subtilin, and lantibiotics. In the present study, the selected seven Bacillus strains showed different enzyme activities according to types of macromolecule organic matters. And their antimicrobial activities varied based on the species of pathogenic bacteria. In addition, at least five Bacillus strains had genetic potential to produce several natural lipopeptide antibiotics that may help biological control of surf clam aquaculture. Therefore, mixed use of probiotics might show co-operative effect and increase the efficiency of probiotics rather than separate use. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first report on antimicrobial properties of Bacillus species isolated from surf clam.

종이가 인류의 생활에 미치는 비중은 정보의 전달을 제 l의 목적으로 사용되고 있는 인쇄용 지와 필기용지가 차지하는 것이 가장 크다. 정보전달의 매개로 사용되는 종이의 용도 이외 의 것을 살펴보면 전사지, 감압.감열지, 절연지,OMR지, 항공권지, 벽지 등과 같은 특수지와 기능지가 있다. 특히 벽지는 다양한 문양과 색감으로 인간의 미적 감각과 정신적 안정감에 미치는 영향이 크다. 벽지의 기능은 여러 가지의 목적으로 우리들의 실생활에 있어서 없어서는 안될 중요한 건축 재료로서 사용되고 있다. 가장 중요한 벽지의 목적은 앞서 언급한 바와 같이 미려한 색상과 다양한 디자인으로 도안.인쇄 및 발포 처리된 벽지를 사용하여 단순한 벽면을 개인의 취향 에 맞게 함으로써 심리적 안정감을 가져옴과 동시에 미적 가치를 증가 시켜 문화 수준의 향 상에도 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 그러나 종이 벽지와 종이 벽지 원지를 기저로 하여 제조된 발포 벽지는 인화성이 강하기 때 문에 이들에 대한 적절한 난연 처리가 요구 되고 있다. 매년 발생되는 다양한 형태의 화재 는 돌이킬 수 없는 인명과 재산의 손실로 귀결되어 각별한 주의가 요구되기 때문에 주거공 간과 대중의 군집이 많이 이루어지는 공공장소에서의 난연 처리된 벽지 사용에 대한 중요성 이 나날이 그 강도를 더 해가고 있는 실정이다. 난연 처리된 벽지는 통상적인 벽지에 비하 여 제조 원가의 상승에 따라 가격이 비싸기 때문에 일반인들에게 있어서 그 사용은 주목할 정도로 증가되지 못하고 있으나, 생활 수준이 향상 될수록 안전에 대한 의식 강화와 정부의 노력으로 인하여 그 사용량은 크게 늘어날 것으로 기대된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 종이의 제조에 사용되는 원지의 충전제 종류와 양 그리고 난연 처리 된 폴리에스테르 섬유의 혼합을 달리하여 제조된 원지를 사용하여 난연 처려한 후 이들의 인화 특성에 대해 고찰 함으로써 보다 향상된 성능을 발휘 할 수 있는 난연 벽지의 제조와 개발에 보탬이 되고자 하였다.

Polymer dispersed liquid crystal mode can be classified into two cases, normally scattering mode (NS) and normally transparent (NT) mode according to an initial state. Electro-optic characteristic NS/NT PDLC mode can be improved by controlling the factors to influence the phase separation. In case of NS PDLC mode, we inspected change of a phase separation as a function of curing temperature for the mixture of E7 and NOA65 with different ratios. When the LC concentration is less than polymer such as LC : NOA65 = 40 : 60wt%, the PDLC cell is influenced strongly by the curing temperature. However, when LC concentration is much less than polymer such as LC : NOA65 : 80 : 20wt%, it is influenced slightly by the curing temperature. In case of NT PDLC mode, we observed change of a phase separation as a function of the ratio of the mixture and UV conditions such as curing temperature, UV intensity The cell made with strong UV intensity and curing temperature of $20^{\circ}C$, in case that the ratio of LC to polymer is 70:30wt%, showed good electro-optic characteristics.

Introduction: Bone regeneration of cystic defects of the jaws after a cyst treatment requires lengthy healing periods. Generally, the bony changes are observed periodically through a visual radiographic reading as well as by the clinical opinion and radiographic images (panorama, periapical view), but it is difficult to compare the objective bony changes using only the radiographic density. In addition, it is difficult to observe minute bony changes through a visual radiographic reading, which can lead to a subjective judgment. This study exmined the bone density after the enucleation of a jaw cyst by fractal analysis. Materials and Methods: Eighteen patients with a cystic lesion on the jaw were assessed. Panoramic radiographs were taken preoperatively, immediately postoperatively, and 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after cyst enucleation. The images were analyzed by fractal analysis. Results: The mean fractal dimensions increased immediately after surgery and 3, 6 and 12 months postoperatively. The postoperative 6 and 12 months fractal dimension was similar to the controls. Conclusion: Fractal analysis was used to overcome the limit of a subjective reading during an assessment of bone regeneration after cyst enucleation.
