The stability of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films under the light soaking are very important since the applications of a-Si:H films are solar cells, color sensors, photosensors, and thin film transistors(TFTs). We found the changes of the electric conductivity and the conductivity activation energy (Ea) of a-Si:H films by argon radical annealing. The deposition rate of a-Si:H films depends on the argon radical annealing time. The optical band gap and the hydrogen contents in the a-Si:H films are changes along the argon radical annealing time. We will discuss the microscopic processes of argon radical annealing in a-si:H films.

Time-temperature integrators (TTIs) based on aqueous enzyme solutions produce transparent colors which lead to difficulty in distinguishing its color change by naked eye. In this present study, this issue has been solved by increasing the opacity of laccase-based TTI without changes in the kinetics (same zero-order reaction) and temperature dependency (similar Arrhenius activation energy values) of the color change. The opacity was increased by introducing TiO₂, latex, BaSO₄, or ZnO, in combination with a hydrocolloid (xanthan gum, acacia gum, pectin, and CMC) into the TTI system. The combination of TiO₂ and xanthan gum was the best. This finding broadened the advantages of laccase-based TTI to more practical uses for consumer convenience.

Objectives: This study aimed to use a laboratory model to evaluate the efficacy of an experimental bleaching agent. Materials and Methods: The model used human extracted molars that were treated and measured for bleaching efficacy. Teeth (n = 50) were distributed into 5 groups: Negative control (NC): immersion in water for 8 hours; Nanofibers (NFs): Experimental titanium dioxide nanofibers with stirring and light activation for 8 hours; Whitestrips (WS): Crest 3D White Glamorous White Whitestrips, 2 applications daily for 30 minutes, 14 days; 1% hydrogen peroxide (HP) standard: 1% hydrogen peroxide for 8 hours; and 30% HP standard: 30% hydrogen peroxide for 8 hours. Instrumental measurements were performed using a spectrophotometer. Results were recorded at baseline, 1-day post-bleaching, and 1-week post-bleaching. Kruskal-Wallis procedure was used to determine differences in color change. Pearson correlation was used to evaluate the relationship between visual and instrumental measurements. Tests of hypotheses were 2-sided with alpha = 0.05. Results: There was no significant difference in color parameters (L1, a1, b1, and shade guide units [SGU]) at baseline (p > 0.05). There was a significant difference among the groups for overall color change (ΔE^*ab) and change in shade guide units (ΔSGU) at 1-day and 1-week post-bleaching (p < 0.05). The higher the HP concentration, the higher the color change as expressed in ΔSGU and ΔE^*ab. The negative control exceeded the perceptibility threshold of ΔE^* = 1.2 regardless of time point. NFs showed a decrease in chroma, but were not statistically different compared to the negative control. Conclusions: The laboratory model was successful in screening an experimental bleaching agent.

Reaction conditions in the amino-carbonyl reaction, and the effect of amino acids on the reactivity of amino-carbonyl reaction were investigated. Results obtained are as follows : 1. When the pH of the reaction mixture was increased above the isoelectric point of an amino acid, a significant increase in the color intensity was observed. 2. The color intensity increased gradually up to 1 : 1 of the molar ratio of reactants. This result was interpreted to show that sugar and free amino group combined in 1 : 1 ratio. 3. Amino-carbonyl reaction showed a significant time and temperature-dependences. The activation energy at 0.2 M glucose and 0.2 M glycine system was 37.5 Kcal/mole. 4. Among amino acids tested, glycine, lysine and $\beta$-alanine caused a significant increase in the color intensity, but acidic amino acids showed the least color intensity. The latter was interpreted to show that one of carboxyl groups of acidic amino acid has an inhibiting effect on the reactivity of the amino group. 5. The color intensity of sugars tested was in the order of xylose>arabibose>fructose>glucose>maltose>lactose.

The antioxidant effects in soybean oil was investigated by browning reaction mixtures formed by sugar and reaction temperatures above 110$^{\circ}C$. 0.1 M solution of xylose, glucose and sucrose were heated at 110, 120, 130, 140 and 150$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs respectively. A reaction rate constant(k), activation energy (Ea) and Q$\sub$10/ value were determined by color intensity that was measured absorbance at 490 nm in each temperature. Soybean oil containing the ethanol extracts taken from the browning reaction mixtures that were heated at 110, 130 and 150$^{\circ}C$ was stored in an incubator kept at 45.0${\pm}$1.0$^{\circ}C$ for 24 days. The results are as follows: 1. When 0.1 M solution of xylose, glucose and sucrose were heated at 110$^{\circ}C$ and 120$^{\circ}C$, the intensity of glucose browning mixtures was the highest, but heated at 150$^{\circ}C$, the color intensity increased in order of xylose > glucose > sucrose after 24 hrs. 2. The reaction rate constant (k) was increased rapidly above 140$^{\circ}C$ and appeared maximum at 150$^{\circ}C$, esp. xylose was the highest. The activation onergy (Ea) of xylose was the highest as 93.28 Joule/mole and the Q$\sub$10/ value of xylose was appeared 1.28. Q$\sub$10/ value was also the highest in xylose. 3. The browning reaction mixtures that were heated at 110$^{\circ}C$ appeared little antioxidant effects. But, in heated at 130$^{\circ}C$ and 150$^{\circ}C$, the antioxidant effects appeared in sucrose browning reaction mixtures. Therefore, in browning reaction mixtures that heated above 110$^{\circ}C$, only sucrose browning reaction mixtures appeared antioxidant effects and xylose, glucose appeared little antioxidant effects. On the contrary xylose and glucose increased peroxide values of soybean oil.

The purpose of this study is to expression pattern of melanogenesis associate genes on cultured melanocyte layer cells in Korean Brindle Cattle(Dark, Brindle and Yellow) were analyzed to evaluate the effects of sex hormones on the control of melanogenesis pathways. Korean Brindle Cattle(Dark, Brindle and Yellow) melanocyte in the skin cells was collected. after the addition of estrogen and testosterone, the culture was analyzed for expression of cell activity and melanin genes for 72 hours. For the analysis of estrogen in different coat color other than the melanogenesis-related genes it is increasingly yellow showed low expression. in particular, the cells of the brindle coat color is low active and expression of genes. However, the testosterone was low, the expression of cell activity inhibiting MMP-2. the expression of melanin genes actually showed a tendency to increase gradually, which is testosterone compared with the estrogen to be considered that affect the skin cell layer brindle coat color. In this study, stimulation with estrogen triggered the inhibition of MC1R of the melanocyte in brindle coat color, but testosterone is induced MC1R in melanocyte. Therefore, considered the eumelanin or phaeomelanin activation are controlled caused by differential expression of sex hormones on melanocyte in Korean Brindle Cattle.

Kinetics and mechanism for alkaline hydrolysis of C. I. Disperse Green 9(G-9) of dinitrothiophene disperse dye were investigated. As soon as G-9 contacted with alkali, instant and continuous decreases of color strength of G-9 followed with increasing time. The hydrolysis rate of G-9 increased with increasing alkali, and it was found that alkali appeared first order dependence. The observed rate constants obtained from hydrolysis of various amount of dye were similar values, and calculation of initial rates showed that G-9 hydrolyzed by first order reaction for dye. Therefore it was confirmed that the overall reaction was second order, $SN_2$ of nucleophilic substitution reaction. Increasing temperature enhanced the hydrolysis of G-9. From the results of hydrolysis performed at various temperatures, it was obtained that activation energy(Ea) was 12.6 kcal/mole, enthalpy of reaction(${\triangle}H$) was 12.0 kcal/mole, and entropy of reaction(${\triangle}S$) was $29.8J/mol{\cdot}K$.

The thermal decomposition behavior and degradation characteristics off our different thermotropic liquid crystalline polymers (TLCPs) were studied. The thermal decomposition behavior was determined by means of thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at different heating rates in nitrogen and air. The order of the thermal stability was as follows: multi-aromatic polyester > hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA)/hydroxynaphthoic acid (HNA) copolyester > HNA/hydroxyl acetaniline (HAA)/terephthalic acid (TA) copolyester > HBA/Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) copolyester. The activation energies of the thermal degradation were calculated by four multiple heating rate methods: Flynn-Wall, Friedman, Kissinger, and Kim-Park. The Flynn-Wall and Kim-Park methods were the most suitable methods to calculate the activation energy. Samples were exposed to an accelerated degradation test (ADT), under fixed conditions of heat ($63{\pm}3^{\circ}C$), humidity ($30{\pm}4%$) and Xenon arc radiation ($1.10\;W/m^2$), and the changes in surface morphology and color difference with time were determined. The TLCPs decomposed, discolored and cracked upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
