  • Fifty three fungi isolated from soils of different microhabitats of eastern Himalayan range (3,400-3,600 msl) were screened for mycosynthesis of silver nanaoparticles (AgNPs) and their efficacy as antimicrobials were assessed in combination with commonly used antibiotics. Three isolates $Aspergillus$ $terreus$ SP5, $Paecilomyces$ $lilacinus$ SF1 and $Fusarium$ sp. MP5 identified based on morphological and 18S rRNA gene sequences were found to synthesize AgNPs. These nanoparticles were characterized by visual observation followed by UV-visible spectrophotometric analysis. The AgNPs synthesized by $Aspergillus$ $terreus$ SP5, $Paecilomyces$ $lilacinus$ SF1 and $Fusarium$ sp. MP5 showed absorbance maxima at 412, 419, and 421 nm respectively in the visible region. Transmission electron microscopy micrograph showed formation of spherical AgNPs of 5-50 nm size. The antimicrobial activity of the mycosynthesized nanoparticles were investigated alone and in combination with commonly used antibiotics for analysis of growth inhibition zone against test organisms, namely, $Staphylococcus$ $aureus$ MTCC96, $Streptococcus$ $pyogenes$ MTCC1925, $Salmonella$ $enterica$ MTCC735 and $Enterococcus$ $faecalis$ MTCC2729. The mycosynthesized nanoparticles showed potent antibacterial activity and interestingly their syngergistic effect with erythromycin, methicillin, chloramphenicol and ciprofloxacin was significantly higher as compared to inhibitions by AgNPs alone. The present study indicates that silver nanoparticles synthesized using soil borne indigenous fungus of high altitudes show considerable antimicrobial activity, deserving further investigation for potential applications.

  • We fabricated 3 types of ETL, mp TiO2, ZnO, and ZnO coated on mp TiO2(ZMT) to compare the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) and fill factor (FF) of Perovskite solar cells. The structure of the cells was FTO/ETL/Perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3)/spiro-MeOTAD/Ag. SEM morphology assessment of the ETLs showed that mp TiO2 was porous, ZnO was flat, and the ZMT porous surface was filled with a thin layer. Via XRD measurements, the crystal structures of mp TiO2 and ZnO ETL were found to be anatase and wurtzite, respectively. The XPS patterns showing energy bonding of mp TiO2, ZnO, and ZMT O 1s confirmed these materials to be metal oxides such as ETL. The electrical characteristics of the Perovskite solar cells were measured using a solar simulator. Perovskite solar cells with ZMT ETL showed showed PCE of 10.29 % than that of conventional mp TiO2 ETL devices. This was considered a result of preventing Perovskite from seeping into the ETL and preventing recombination of electrons and holes.

  • In this paper, the recovery and nanoparticle synthesis of Ag from low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) by-products are studied. The effect of reaction behavior on Ag leaching conditions from the LTCC by-products is confirmed. The optimum leaching conditions are determined to be: 5 M $HNO_3$, a reaction temperature of $75^{\circ}C$, and a pulp density of 50 g/L at 60 min. For the selective recovery of Ag, the [Cl]/[Ag] equivalence ratio experiment is performed using added HCl; most of the Ag (more than 99%) is recovered. The XRD and MP-AES results confirm that the powder is AgCl and that impurities are at less than 1%. Ag nanoparticles are synthesized using a chemical reduction process for recycling, $NaBH_4$ and PVP are used as reducing agents and dispersion stabilizers. UV-vis and FE-SEM results show that AgCl powder is precipitated and that Ag nanoparticles are synthesized. Ag nanoparticles of 100% Ag are obtained under the chemical reaction conditions.

  • To determine the contents of $^{99}Tc$ in the spent PWR (pressurized water reactor) nuclear fuels by ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry), a technetium separation method using an extraction chromatographic resin (TEVA Spec resin) has been established. $^{99}Tc$ was separated from a spent PWR nuclear fuel solution by this separation procedure and its concentration was determined by ICP-MS. The result agrees well with the value calculated by the program ORIGEN 2 and also the value measured by AG MP-1 resin/ICP-MS method described in our previous paper. It can be concluded that the present separation procedure is superior to the AG MP-1 resin procedure with respect to the time required for technetium separation as well as the efficiency of decontamination from other radioactive nuclides.

  • 본 연구에서는 고온 솔더 범프와 저온 솔더 패드를 이용하여 $140^{\circ}C$에서 1분간의 리플로 공정을 통해 접합에 성공하였다. 고온 솔더 범프로 Sn-4.0Ag-0.5Cu 솔더 볼을 사용하였고, 저온 솔더는 In-48Sn $(mp:\;117^{\circ}C)$ 솔더를 기판에 evaporation 방법으로 두께 $20\;{\mu}m$의 패드 형태로 증착하였다. $140^{\circ}C$에서 1분간의 리플로 공정을 통해 칩과 기판을 접합하였으며, 접합 단면을 관찰해 본 결과 저온 솔더가 녹아 고온 솔더에 wetting된 것을 관찰하였다. 이 시편을 상온에서 시효처리를 실시한 결과 시간의 경과에 따라 저온 솔더와 고온 솔더가 상호 확산하여 약 $40\;{\mu}m$였던 확산층의 범위가 점차 증가하는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한, 리플로 공정변수에 따른 솔더의 미세구조 변화 및 ball shear strength등의 기계적 특성에 대해 고찰하였다.

  • Tautomerism of pyrimidine base cytosine has been comparatively examined on nanoparticle and roughened plate surfaces of silver, gold, and copper by surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). The SERS spectrum was found to be different depending on the metals and their substrate conditions suggesting the dissimilar population of various tautomers of cytosine on the surfaces. The ab initio calculations were performed at the levels of B3LYP, HF, and MP2 levels of theory with the LanL2DZ basis set to estimate the energetic stability of the tautomers with the metal complexes as well as the gas phase state. The amino group and N3-coordinated tautomer was predicted to be more favorable for bonding to Au, whereas the hydroxyl and N1-coordinated zwitter ionic form is most stable with Ag and Cu as a bidentate form from the DFT calculation. The binding energy with the Ag atom is calculated to be smaller than those with the Au and Cu atoms in line with the temperature-dependent SERS spectra of cytosine.

  • 가압경수로형 사용후핵연료에 포함된 플루토늄을 분리하여 전기량 적정방벙으로 정량하였다. 플루토늄은 음이온 교환수지(AG MP-1)를 이용하여 분리하였으며 플루토늄의 정량은 조절전위전기량 적정방법을 이용하였다. 본 연구에서는 플루토늄 분리와 관련된 산화상태 조절, 분리 회수율 및 정량과 관련된 몇 가지 전기량 적정조건들에 대해 검토하였다. 실험결과 플루토늄은 산화상태를 조절하여 분리하는 것이 정량결과에 대한 정확도를 높였으며, 플루토늄의 전기량 적정결과에 미치는 몇 가지 금속이온들에 의한 영향은 나타나지 않았다. 플루토늄 표준용액을 이용하여 측정한 전기량 정량결과에 대한 정확도는 회수율로 나타냈을 경우 0.230∼3.02 mg 범위에서 99.36%이었다. 가압경수로형 사용후핵연료 용해용액들에 포함된 0.250∼0.450 mg의 플루토늄을 적정하여 얻은 전기량 정량결과에 대한 평균 정밀도(상대표준편차, RSD)는 0.38%이었다.

  • 구리는 생지구화학적인 과정에 필수적인 전이금속으로 최근 질량분석기 및 분석기술의 발달로 인해 구리 동위원소를 이용한 연구가 전 세계적으로 활발하게 진행되고 있으나, 국내에서는 아직까지 구리 동위원소에 대한 분석 및 이를 이용한 연구가 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 $AG^{(R)}$ MP-1M 음이온 교환 수지를 충진한 칼럼을 이용하여 구리 분리법을 정립하고 이에 대한 신뢰성 검증을 위하여 두 종류의 암석표준물질(BHVO-2, BIR-1a)에 대해서 동위원소 분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 두 가지 분리법 모두 95% 이상의 회수율을 보였으나 HCl과 $H_2O_2$의 혼합산을 이용하여 분리된 구리에 대하여 분석된 동위원소 값이 기존 보고 값과 오차범위 내에서 잘 일치하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 구리 동위원소 분석법은 향후 환경과학 등 다양한 분야에서 중요하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

  • It is not clear how gene polymorphisms affecting drugs can contributes totheir efficacy in multiple myeloma (MM). We here aimed to explore associations among gene polymorphisms of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), nitric oxide synthesis 3 (NOS3) and multi-drug resistance 1 (MDR1), clinical parameters, prognosis and survival in MM patients treated with VAD (vincristine-adriamycine-dexamethasone), MP (mephalane-prednisolone), autolougus stem cell transplantation (ASCT), BODEC (bortezomib-dexamethasone-cyclophosphamide) and TD (thalidomide-dexamethasone). We analyzed TNFalpha, NOS 3 and MDR1 in 77 patients with MM and 77 healthy controls. The genotyping was performed with PCR and/or PCR-RFLP. There was no clinically significant difference between MM and control groups when TNFalpha (-238) and (-857) and MDR1 gene polymorphisms were studied. However, the TNFalpha gene polymorphism (-308) GG genotype (p=0.012) and NOS3 (+894) TT genotype (p=0.008) were more common in the MM group compared to healthy controls. NOS3 (VNTR) AA (p=0.007) and NOS3 (+894) GG genotypes (p=0.004) were decreased in the MM group in contrast. In conclusion, the NOS3 (+894) TT and TNFalpha (-308) GG genotypes may have roles in myeloma pathogenesis.
