We have fabricated simple triple-layer blue-emitting phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) using different thicknesses (25 and 55 nm) of 2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP) electron transport layers. 1,1-bis[4-bis (4-methylphenyl)- aminophenyllcyclohexane (TAPC), bis[(4,6-di-fluorophenyl)-pyridinate-$N,C^{2'}$]picolinate (FIrpic) and N,N' -dicarbazolyl-3,5-benzene (mCP) were used as hole transport, blue guest and host materials, respectively. The driving voltage, electroluminescence (EL) efficiency and emission characteristics of devices were investigated. The maximum EL efficiency was 20 cd/A in the device with 55 nm BCP layer, which efficiency was about 33% higher than the device with 25 nm BCP layer. The higher efficiency in the 55 nm BCP device resulted from the enhanced electron-hole balance. In the EL spectrum of blue phosphorescent OLED with BCP layer, the relative intensity between 470 and 500 nm peaks was related to the location of emission zone.

Objectives : This study was undertaken to identify fibrinolytic proteases from Gloydius blomhoffii siniticus venom and to characterize a major fibrinolytic protease purified from the venom. Methods : The venom was subjected to chromatography using columns of Q-Sepharose and Sephadex G-75. The molecular weights of fibrinolytic proteases showing fibrinolytic zone in fibrin plate assay were determined in SDS-PAGE (Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) The effects of inhibitors and metal ions on fibrinolytic protease and the proteolysis patterns of fibrinogen, gelatin, and bovine serum albumin were investigated. Results : 1) The fibrinolytic fractions of the three peaks isolated from Gloydius blomhoffii siniticus venom contained two polypeptides of 46 and 59 kDa and three polypeptides of 32, 18, and 15 kDa and a major polypeptide of 54 kDa, respectively. 2) The fibrinolytic activity of the purified protease of 54 kDA was inhibited by metal chelators, such as EDTA, EGTA, and 1,10-phenanthroline, and disulfhydryl-reducing compounds, such as dithiothreitol and cysteine. 3) Calcium chloride promoted the fibrinolytic activity of the protease, but mercuric chloride and cobalt(II) chloride inhibited it. 4) The fibrinolytic protease cleaved preferentially A${\alpha}$-chain and slowly B${\beta}$-chain of fibrinogen. It also hydrolyzed gelatin but not bovine serum albumin. Conclusions : The Gloydius blomhoffii siniticus venom contained more than three fibrinolytic proteases. The major fibrinolytic protease was a metalloprotease which hydrolyzed both fibrinogen and gelatin, but not bovine serum albumin.

Recently, the phosphorescent organic light-emitting devices (OLEDs) have been extensively studied for their high internal quantum efficiency. In this study, we synthesised several phosphorescent metal complexes, and certified their composition using NMR. We also investigated the characteristics of the phosphorescent OLEDs with the green emitting phosphor, $Ir(ppy)_{3}$. The devices with a structure of indium-tin-oxide(ITO)/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-(3-methylphenyI}-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD)/metal complex doped in host materials/2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-l,10-phenanthroline(BCP)/tris (8-hydroxyquinolinato) Aluminum($Alq_{3}$)/Li:Al/Al was fabricated, and its electrical and optical characteristics were studied. By changing the doping concentration of tris(2-phenylpyridine)iridium ($Ir(ppy)_{3}$), we fabricated several devices and investigated their characteristics.

The Pfeiffer effect was examined on the systems of racemic [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(diamine)] with d-cinchonine and l-cinchonidine as chiral environment substances in methanol, ethanol, chloroform and methanol-chloroform mixture solvents. It was found that the ${\Delta}$-enantiomer is enriched for the [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(diamine)]-d-cinchonine system, but the Λ -enantiomer is enriched for the [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(diamine)]-l-cinchonidine system. The complexes having no N-H protons such as [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(bpy)] and [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(phen)] were Pfeiffer-inactive in alcoholic solvents, where bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine and phen = 1,10-phenanthroline. This was interpreted to mean that the hydrogen bonding between N-H proton of diamine ligand and C-9 hydroxyl group of alkalid plays an important role in the chiral discrimination. And the rate of antiracemization ($k_{anti}$) by the Pfeiffer effect was also measured for the [$Co^{II}(acac)_2$(diamine)]-d-cinchonine system in alcoholic solvents. It was found that the rate of appearance of the Pfeiffer effect was enhanced as the concentration of added chloroform is increased.

In this study, newly improved Ferron assay test haved on timed spectrometry was used for the determination of hyolrolytic Al species presented in PACl coagulant. The color development reagent ferron was prepared by using conventional method and two newly developed methods. Then the ferron assay test was used to compare and analyze the distribution of Al(III) hydrolyzed species presented in the prepared PACl and alum. The preparing method of reagent A required an aging period of 7 days by adding a hydroxylamine hydroxide and a 1,10-phenanthroline monohydrate reagent, whereas the preparing method of reagent B was used as a coloring agent immediately without aging time. The regression analysis between UV absorbance and Al concentrations of conventional method and newly developed method of ferron reagents in low-concentration aluminum solutions and high-concentration aluminum solutions, showed the correlation coefficients of 0.999 or higher, as showing high correlations of conventional method and newly developed method. Applying Ferron assay test, Al species in the PACls and alum were classified as Ala(monomeric Al), Alb (polymeric Al), and Alc (colloidal and precipitated Al). Distribution of Al(III) hydrolyzed species according to the preparation of ferron colorimetric reagents was similar.

This study proposes a pH-dissolved-oxygen monitoring system using 8-HydroxyPyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid Trisodium Salt (HPTS) and tris(4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline)Ruthenium(II) chloride (Ru_dpp). Commercial water-quality sensors are electrochemical devices that require frequent calibration and cleaning, are subject to high maintenance costs, and have difficulties conducting measurements in real-time. The proposed pH-dissolved-oxygen monitoring system selects a thin-film sensing layer to measure the change in fluorescence intensity. This change in fluorescence intensity is based on reactions with hydrogen ions in an aqueous solution at a given pH and specific amount of dissolved oxygen. The change in fluorescence intensity is then measured using light-emitting diodes and photodiodes in response to HPTS and Ru_dpp. This method enables the development of a relatively small, inexpensive, and real-time measureable water-quality measurement system.

백색유기발광소자는 저전력, 높은 명암비 및 빠른 응답속도와 넓은 시야각 등의 장점을 가지고 있어 대형 디스플레이, 모바일 디스플레이, 백색 광원 등에 사용되는 차세대 광원으로써 각광 받고 있고 이를 상용화하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 다층 발광층을 가지는 백색유기발광소자는 발광층에 지역이 인가된 전압에 의해 바뀌어 색안정성이 떨어진다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 백색유기발광소자의 발광 메커니즘 규명하고 색안정성을 고찰하였다. 이 백색유기발광 소자는 indium-tin-oxide (ITO) 양극전극에 진공 증착 방법을 통해 전하생성층으로 tungsten oxide(WO3)층과 5,6,11,12-tetraphenyltetracene(rubrene)가 도핑된 N,N',-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl1-1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(NPB)층을 사용하여 제작되었다. ITO를 양극으로, NPB를 정공수송층으로, DPVBi를 발광층으로, 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline(BPhen)을 전자수송층으로, WO3와 0, 1, 2, 또는 3 wt% rubrene 도핑된 NPB를 전하생성층으로, Liq를 전자주입지연층으로, Al을 음극 전극으로 각각 사용하였다. 전하생성층으로 사용한 NPB층의 rubrene 도핑농도가 변화하여 백색유기발광소자의 발광 메커니즘을 규명하였다. rubrene 도핑된 NPB층에서 발광하는 노란빛과 발광층에서 발생하는 파란빛에 의해 백색광을 방출, NPB층에 도핑된 rubrene 도핑 농도가 증가할수록 소자의 전류밀도와 밝기가 증가했다.

The role of oxidative stress in the initiation and the complication of diabetes was examined by monitoring blood glucose increase and oxidative DNA damage in rats treated with alloxan or streptozotocin (STZ). Oxidative DNA damage was assessed by quantitating 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine ($oxo^8dG)$ excreted in urine and the $oxo^8dG$ accumulated in pancreas DNA. Both alloxan and STZ treatments resulted in an abrupt increase in blood glucose and significant increases in urinary and pancreatic $oxo^8dG$. Pretreatment of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a glutathione-depleting agent, slightly potentiated the increase of blood glucose and urinary $oxo^8dG$ in the alloxan- and STZ-treated rats. Furthermore, the BSO pretreatment caused significant amplification of pancreatic $oxo^8dG$ increase in the rats. On the other hand, pretreatment with 1,10- phenanthroline (o-phen), a chelator of divalent cations, showed different results between alloxan- and STZ-treated rats. The o-phen pretreatment completely blocked diabetes and the increase of $oxo^8dG$ by alloxan treatment, while it potentiated the increase of blood glucose and $oxo^8dG$ by STZ treatment. The results demonstrate that the causative effect of alloxan on diabetes may be the generation of reactive oxygen species through a Fenton type reaction, but that of STZ may not.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 높은 색재현성 및 높은 명암비의 장점을 가지며 차세대 디스플레이로서 소형 및 대형 디스플레이로 각광 받고 있다. 저전압구동 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위해 p-i-n 유기발광소자에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 p형 물질에 대한 연구는 많이 진행 되었으나 n형 유기물질에 대한 연구는 아직까지 진행되고 있지 않다. n형 무기물질로 알칼리 금속을 많이 사용하고 있지만, 공기 중에 쉽게 산화되고 금속 이온의 확산에 의한 발광층 여기자 소멸 효과에 의한 효율 감소문제가 있다. 또한, 무기물질의 높은 증착온도에 따른 유기층의 손상 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 유기물 n형 물질에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 n형 유기물 도펀트인 bis (ethylenedithio)-tetrahiafulene (BEDT-TTF)를 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BPhen) 전자수송층에 도핑하여 유기발광소자의 전자 수송 능력을 향상하였다. BEDT-TTF의 낮은 증착온도와 공기 중에 산화가 되지 않으며, 유기물을 사용하기 때문에 발광층 여기자 소멸을 방지할 수 있다. 전자수송층에 도핑된 BEDT-TTF 분자는 산화 반응에 의한 전자 증가에 따른 에너지 장벽을 감소시켜 전자의 주입을 향상하였다. BEDT-TTF의 농도에 따른 유기발광소자의 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 각각 관찰하여 BEDT-TTF의 농도에 따른 전자 수송 향상에 따른 저전압 유기발광소자 구동을 관측하였다.

유기발광소자는 차세대 디스플레이로 각광받으며 모바일 디스플레이에 이어 대형 디스플레이의 상용화 단계에 이르고 있다. 유기발광소자의 효율을 높이기 위해서는 여러 가지 구조에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 유기물 내에서는 정공 이동도가 전자 이동도보다 빠르기 때문에 유기발광소자의 발광층에서 전자와 정공이 효율적으로 균형을 이루기 위하여 전자 주입효율 증진에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 녹색 유기발광소자의 전자 주입 효율을 향상 하여 소자의 발광 효율을 증진하는 발광효율 향상 메커니즘을 규명하였다. Cesium nitrate(CsNO3)와 lithium quinolate (Liq)를 다층 전자주입층으로 사용한 녹색 유기발광소자는 indiumtin-oxide 양극전극 위에 진공 증착 방법을 사용하여 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 정공수송층으로 N,N'-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine (NPB), 발광층으로 tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) (Alq3), 전자수송층으로 Alq3와 4,7-diphenyl-l-10-phenanthroline (BPhen), 전자주입층으로 CsNO3/Liq와 Liq, Al을 음극 전극으로 각각 사용하였다. CsNO3/Liq와 Liq를 전자주입층과 Alq3와 BPhen 전자 수송층으로 각각 사용한 녹색 유기발광소자의 전자 주입 성능을 비교 하여 발광 효율 향상 메커니즘을 규명하였다. CsNO3/Liq 전자주입층을 사용한 유기발광소자가 Liq 전자주입층을 사용한 유기발광소자보다 전극으로부터 전자 주입효율이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 전자주입효율 향상으로 발광층의 전자와 정공의 재결합을 증가하여 녹색 유기발광소자의 효율이 증진되었고 구동전압이 낮아졌다.
