본 실험은 제초제인 2,4-D, dicamba, 및 MCPP의 토양에서의 이동을 확인하고 평가하기 위하여 토양종류에 따른 이들 제초제의 흡착과 휘발을 일정시간 동안 조사하였다. 제초제의 토양중 흡착은 batch isotherm으로 조사하였는데, MCPP와 2,4-D는 Freundlich식에서 직선으로 나타났으며, dicamba는 곡선으로 나타났다. Silty clay 토양에서 MCPP의 K$_d$ 및 K$_{fr}$값이 가장 높았으며, loamy sand 토양에서는 dicamba의 K$_d$, K$_{fr}$값이 가장 낮았다. 전반적으로 silty clay 토양에서 K$_d$, K$_{fr}$값이 높았고 N값은 낮았다. 토양에 살포된 제초제의 약 40%가 처리 25일 경과시 휘발되거나 분해되었으며, 이들 제초제중 2,4-D가 dicamba와 MCPP에 비하여 분해 및 휘발속도가 빨랐다. 모든 토양에서 이들 제초제의 분해 및 휘발속도는 공기에 노출된 초기에 현저하게 빠른 것으로 나타나고 있다. 본 연구의 결과는 자연환경중에서 이들 제초제의 이동 및 잔류 현황을 예견하는데 사용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The 16- and 32-state Trellis-coded M-ary 4-dimensional (4-D) orthogonal modulation scheme with a frequency-reuse technique have been investigated. Here, 5 coded bits form a rate 4/5 convolutional encoder provide 32 possible symbols. Then the signals are mapped by a M-ary 4-D orthogonal modulator, where each signal has equal energy and is PSK modulated. In the M-ary 4-D modulator, we have employed the vectors which is derived by the optimization technique of signal waveforms in a 4-D sphere. This technique is usedin maximizing the minimum Euclidean distance between a set of signal poits on a multidimensional sphere. By combinig trellis coding with M-ary 4-D modulation and proper set-partitioning, we have obtained a considerable impeovement in the free minimum distance of the system over an AWGN channel. The 16-state scheme obtains coding gains up to 5.5 dB over the uncoded two-independent QPSK scheme and 2.5 dB over the two-independent 2-D TCM scheme. And, the 32-state scheme obtains coding gains up to 6.4 dB over the uncoded two-independent QPSK schemeand 3.4 dB over the two-independent 2-D TCM scheme.

In this paper, we proposed low noise amplifier for 2.4GHz ISM frequency with CMOS technology. The property of noise and gain is improved by cascode architecture. The architecture, which common source output of cascode is connected to input of parallel MOS, reduce IM. The LNA results based on Hynix 0.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 2poly 4metal CMOS processor with a 3.3V supply. It achieves a gain of 13dB, noise figure of 1.7dB, IP3 of 8dBm, Input/output matching of -31dB/-28dB, reverse isolation of -25dB. and power dissipation of 4.7mW with HSPICE simulation. The size of layout is smaller than 2 ${\times}$ 2mm with Mentor.

Purpose : A parallel imaging method provides us to improve temporal resolution to obtain three-dimensional (3D) MR images. The objective of this study was to optimize three 3D MRI techniques by adjusting 2D SESNE factors of the parallel imaging method in phantom and human brain. Materials and Methods : With a 3 Tesla MRI system and an 8-channel phase-array sensitivity-encoding (SENSE) coil, three 3D MRI techniques of 3D T1-weighted imaging (3D T1WI), 3D T2-weighted imaging (3D T2WI) and 3D fluid attenuated inversion recovery (3D FLAIR) imaging were optimized with adjusting SESNE factors in a water phantom and three human brains. The 2D SENSE factor was applied on the phase-encoding and the slice-encoding directions. Signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), percent signal reduction rate(%R), and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR) were calculated by using signal intensities obtained in specific regions-of-interest (ROI). Results : In the phantom study, SENSE factor = 3 was provided in 0.2% reduction of signals against without using SENSE with imaging within 5 minutes for 3D T1WI. SENSE factor = 2 was provided in 0.98% signal reduction against without using SENSE with imaging within 5 minutes for 3D T2WI. SENSE factor = 4 was provided in 0.2% signal reduction against without using SENSE with imaging around 6 minutes for 3D FLAIR. In the human brain study, SNR and CNR were higher with SENSE factors = 3 than 4 for all three imaging techniques. Conclusion : This study was performed to optimize 2D SENSE factors in the three 3D MRI techniques that can be scanned in clinical time limitations with minimizing SNR reductions. Without compromising SNR and CNR, the optimum 2D SENSE factors were 3 and 4, yielding the scan time of about 5 to 6 minutes. Further studies are necessary to optimize 3D MRI techniques in other areas in human body.

The structures of dioscin(1) and saponin P-d(2), isolated from the subterranean part of Allium fistulosum, were determined as diosgenin 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1longrightarrow2)-[$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1longrightarrow4)]-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (1, ) and diosgenin 3-O-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1longrightarrow4)-$\alpha$-L-rhamnopyranosyl(1longrightarrow4)［$\alpha$-L-rhamno-pyranosyl (1longrightarrow2)]-$\beta$-D-glucopyranoside (2) by spectroscopic and chemical degradational methods. The prosa-pogenin(4), which was provided on partial hydrolysis of 2, was not reported in previous literature.

SH2D4A, comprising a single SH2 domain, is a novel protein of the SH2 signaling protein family. We have previously demonstrated SH2D4A is expressed ubiquitously in various tissues and is located in the cytoplasm. In this study we investigated the function of SH2D4A in human embryonic kidney (HEK) 293 cells using interaction analysis, cell proliferation assays, and kinase activity detection. SH2D4A was found to directly bind to estrogen receptor $\alpha$ (ER$\alpha$), and prevent the recruitment of phospholipase C-$\gamma$ (PLC-$\gamma$) to ER$\alpha$. Moreover, we observed its inhibitory effects on estrogen-induced cell proliferation, involving the protein kinase C (PKC) signaling pathway. Together, these findings suggested that SH2D4A inhibited cell proliferation by suppression of the ER$\alpha$/PLC-$\gamma$/PKC signaling pathway. SH2D4A may be useful for the development of a new anti-cancer drug acting as an ER signaling modulator.

In the preparation of acyclic thymidine nucleoside analogues, $K_2CO_3$(or NaH) treated thymine in DMSO was alkylated with .omega.-chloroalkyl nitrite (Cl-(CH_2)n-CN; n=1, 2, 3, 4) to provide an isomeric mixture of 1-(${\omega}$-cyanoalkyl)thymine (2a-d) and 1,3-bis(${\omega}$-cyanoalkyl)thymine in approximately 5:1 ratios. Reduction of the cyano function 2a-d with $NaBH_{4}/CoCl_{2}$ center dot$ 6H_{2}O$gave the corresponding 1-(${\omega}$aminoalkyl)thymine (3a-d). The newly formed primary amino function in 3a-d was directly reacted with 2-chloroethylisocyanate to afford the 1-[.omega.($N^{I}$-2-chloroethylureido) alkyl]thymine (4a-d) in good yields. Nitrosation of 1-[5-($ N^{I}-2$-chloroethylureido)pentyl] thymine (4d) with glacial acetic acid and dry $NaNO_{2}$-powder in anhydrous $CH_{2}Cl_{2}$gave two types of regioisomeric nitrosoureas, 1-[5-($N^{I}$--chloroethyl-$N^{I}$--nitrosoureido)pentylithymine (5d) and 1-[5-($N^{I}-2$-chloroethyl-N-nitrosoureido)pentyllthymine in approximately 5 :1 ratios. The in vitro cytotoxicity of the synthesized compounds (2a-d, 3a-d, 4a-d and 5a-d) against three cell lines (K-562, P-388 and FM-3A) are measured as $IC^{50}$ values. Compounds 3b and 4c showed moderate activities against all three cell lines, and all other compounds were found to be not active.

A novel 3D compound $\{[Cu(L)(H_2O)_4][Cu_2(SIP)_2(L)_2]\}{\cdot}2H_2O$ (1) (L = N,N-bis(4-pyridinecarboxamide)-1,4-butane, SIP = 5-sulfoisophthalate) is hydrothermally synthesized. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that compound 1 is composed of 2D anionic $[Cu_2(SIP)_2(L)_2]_n{^{2n-}}$ double-layers and discrete 1D cationic $[CuL(H_2O)_4]_n{^{2n+}}$ polymeric chains, which represents a rare 3D polypseudo-rotaxane MOF from intercalation of 1D and 2D framework. In addition, the luminescent property and electrochemical behavior of compound 1 have been investigated.
