To investigate the effects of Protaetia. brevitarsis extracts on the protection against liver damage by carbon tetrachloride($CCl_4$) in rat, two kinds of experiment were performed, firstly by the primary hepatocyte culture and secondly by the animal feeding. The primary hepatocyte culture with the extracts of P.brevitarsis showed significantly low activities of GPT, bile acid, and bilirubin, indicating an excellent protective effect against liver damage by $CCl_4$. Especially, below molecular weight 1,000 blew the water to have 32.1% recovery degree. In the seconde experiment, serum GPT activity was significantly decreased in water fraction of P. brevitarsis compared to $CCl_4$ treatment by 98.2%. Serum concentration of bile acid and bilirubin were tended to increased by $CCl_4$ treatment, but water fraction of P. brevitarsis and silymarin recovered the level. These consistent results in vitro and in vivo suggest that the extracts of P. brevitarsis may have strong protective effects against liver damage induced by the potential toxicants such as $CCl_4$.

The compositions of triglyceride of pine-nut oil were $C_{52}=31.55%,\;C_{44}=20.72%,\;C_{54}=17.52%,\;C_{34}=15.24%,\;C_{56}=12.50%$ in order, respectively. 2. The compositions of triglyceride of walnut oil were $C_{44}=38.66%,\;C_{52}=29.47%,\;C_{54}=16.53%,\;C_{34}=11.12%,\;C_{50}=1.51%$ in order, respectively.

The experimental procedures of Beckmann rearrangement mostly involve the use of vigorous conditions such as strongly acidic reagents (conc. HCl, $H_2SO_4$, $PCl_5$, etc.) or elevated temperatures, which frequently cause isomerization of ketooximes prior to rearrangement.We have effected the Beckmann rearrangement on $5{\alpha}$-cholestan-3-one oxime using the carbon tetrachloride-triphenylphosphine reagent under mild, neutral conditions to give 3-aza-A-homo-$5{\alpha}$-cholestan-4-one. This new, mild, facile and rapid general method of Beckmann rearrangement is presented, and compared with the classical (more conventional) Beckmann reagent of polyphosphoric acid.

A bag filter system was partially burnt down during a trial run of waste wood incineration boiler. This brought about unburned hydrocarbon which caused a rapid deactivation of low temperature SCR catalyst set up in two stage after the bag filter. The deactivated catalyst was investigated in order to trace the origin by several characterization methods such as XRD, EDX, BET, TGA, SEM. The deactivated catalyst was regenerated by different methods such as acid washing, water washing in ultrasonication, and calcination treatment under air condition. It is found the calcination treatment under air condition at $450^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours to be the best regeneration method. The catalytic activity was measured in the form of 2 cm ${\times}$ 2 cm ${\times}$ 10 cm (catalyst weight 10 g) honeycomb type. A deNOx efficiency of the regenerated catalyst showed 100% at $180^{\circ}C$ which is the same level of fresh one.

High-quality double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWCNTs) were synthesized by catalytic decomposition method at $800^{\circ}C$ using Tetrahydrofuran. The as-synthesized DWCNTs typically have catalytic impurities and amorphous carbon, which were removed by two-step purification process, consisting of thermal oxidation and H2O2, HNO3, HCl treatment. The DWCNT suspension was prepared by dispersing the purified DWCNTs in an aqueous sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate solution with horn-type sonication. This was then sprayed on ITO glass to fabricate CNT field emitters. The quality of purified DWCNTs was estimated with X-ray diffraction and Thermal Gravity Analysis. The field emission properties were improved by increasing the process time of HCl treatment.

An electrospinning process was used to fabricate poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanofibers embedding multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWNTs). SEM images showed that the nanofiber surface and structural morphology depended on solvent types (dimethyl formamide, chlor-form and toluene) and carbon nanotube contents (0.5 and $3.0\;wt\%$). Nano-fiber alignments could be controlled by adjusting the electrodes configuration at collector sites. Relationship between carbon nanotube and PMMA nanofiber was studied with radius of gyration of polymer chain and carbon nanotube sizes. As the carbon nanotube content ratio increased, the number of bead increased.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of natural Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. vinegar on the liver protective effect of animals exposed to carbon tetrachloride. Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. vinegar (200 mg/kg) was administered at the same time for 28 days, and hepatotoxicity was induced by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride on the $29^{th}$ day. The aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase levels were significantly decreased (p < 0.001) and the superoxide dismutase and catalase activities were significantly increased (p < 0.001) in the Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. vinegar group compared to the control group. Histopathological observations showed that the Eriobotrya japonica Lindl. vinegar showed hepatic cell structure similar to normal group, and these results showed that it had an effect of suppressing and protecting the damage of liver cell. Therefore, Eriobotrya japonical Lindl. vinegar is considered to be a healthy functional food of the liver.

Probiotics are microbial food supplements or components of bacteria which have traditionally been added to dairy foods for extra health boost. Our aim was to evaluate the hepatoprotective effect of Bifidobacterium adolescentis SPM0212 as probiotics, which we previously found has potential anti-hepatitis B virus activity. The study was conducted using Wistar albino rats and probiotics were treated orally for 9 days consecutively and acute liver injury was induced by administration of carbon tetrachloride ($CCl_4$) on the 7th and 8th days. Liver damage was assessed by quantifying serum activities of glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (SGOT) and glutamate pyruvate transaminase (SGPT), as well as by histopathological examination. B. adolescentis SPM0212 significantly prevented the elevation of SGOT and SGPT levels, and reduced the negative effect of $CCl_4$ on body and organ weights. Histopathological study revealed the livers of the carbon tetrachloride treated rats showed almost complete loss of normal hepatocyte architecture, but that rats treated with B. adolescentis SPM0212 showed minimal damage and normal hepatocyte architecture. Our results suggest that B. adolescentis SPM0212 be considered useful probiotics for protecting the liver from xenobiotics and hepatitis B virus, and as well as useful as a functional food for maintaining human health.

원자력발전소 배관계통에 존재하는 균열을 해석하는 방법으로, 이제까지는 균열을 고려하지 않은 상태에서 지진하중을 고려한 탄성 배관해석을 수행하여, 배관에 작용하는 하중을 구한 후, 다음 단계에서 파괴해석 방법으로 균열을 가정한 탄소성 균열해석을 수행하는 2단계의 해석을 통해 균열안정성을 평가해 왔다. 이러한 방법은 전체 배관의 거동과 배관 내에 존재하는 균열의 거동을 서로 독립적인 것으로 고려하고 있으며 재료물성치로는 설계값을 사용하는 등의 보수적인 가정들을 포함하고 있어 배관에 작용하는 하중 또는 응력을 과도하게 계산하는 결과를 초래하고 있다 특히, 지진하중과 같은 반복적인 외부 동적하중이 작용하는 경우, 배관에 국부적인 소성변형이 발생함에도 이를 단지 탄성거동으로 간주하게 되는 것이다. 이러한 몇몇 보수적 가정들을 포함하고 있는 기존의 해석방법은 지나친 보수성을 가질 뿐만 아니라, 균열에 의한 실제 배관의 파단하중과 계산에 의한 파단하중의 비교로서 배관의 안전여유도를 예측하는 방법으로는 적절하지 못하다.(중략)
