The present study was conducted to evaluate in vivo anticancer activity of two novel mononuclear ruthenium(II) compounds, namely Ru(1,10-phenanthroline)$_2$(2-nitro phenyl thiosemicarbazone)$Cl_2$(Compound $R_1$) and Ru (1,10-phenanthroline)$_2$(2-hydroxy phenyl thiosemicarbazone)$Cl_2$(Compound $R_2$) against Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) mice and in vitro cytotoxic activity against IEC-6 (small intestine) cell lines and Artemia salina nauplii using MTT [(3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide)] and BLT [brine shrimp lethality] assays respectively. The tested ruthenium compounds at the doses 2 and 4 mg/kg body weight showed promising biological activity especially in decreasing the tumor volume, viable ascites cell counts and body weights. These compounds prolonged the life span (% ILS), mean survival time (MST) of mice bearing-EAC tumor. The results for in vitro cytotoxicity against IEC-6 cells showed the ruthenium compound $R_2$ to have significant cytotoxic activity with a $IC_{50}$ value of $20.0{\mu}g/mL$ than $R_1$ ($IC_{50}=78.8{\mu}g/mL$) in the MTT assay and the $LC_{50}$ values of $R_1$ and $R_2$ compounds were found to be 38.3 and $43.8{\mu}g/mL$ respectively in the BLT assay. The biochemical and histopathological results revealed that there was no significant hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity associated with the ruthenium administration to mice.

매립지 차수층에는 다짐점토층이 사용되고 있지만 건조/수축, 동결/융해 등의 환경적인 영향에 대한 내구성을 향상시키기 위한 기능성 복합차수층에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 원지반토양에 고화재를 첨가한 BLT층과 벤토나이트와 미생물 배양액을 첨가한 BLM 층으로 구성된 복합차수층의 차수기능과 BLM층에서 미생물 배양액 첨가에 따른 Bio-barrier 기능을 평가하였다. 원지반토양에 고화재와 벤토나이트를 각각 8, 10%(w/w)를 첨가하였r고, 미생물 배양액은 1%(v/w)을 첨가하였다. 실험결과 원지반토양은 SC계열의 토양으로 분류되었고, BLT, BLM 차수층의 8% 혼합비율에서도 1$\times$ $10^{-7}$cm/sec 보다 낮은 투수계수를 나타내었다. BLM 층에 첨가된 미생물 배양액에 의한 Bio-barrier 기능 실험결과 미생물 배양액 첨가에 의하여 침출수에 대한 내구성이 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Objective This study protocol aims to determine, using a rigorous approach in patients with bipolar disorder (BD) and non-seasonal major depressive episode (MDE), the characteristics of bright light therapy (BLT) administration (duration, escalation, morning and mid-day exposures) depending on the tolerance (hypomanic symptoms). Methods Patients with BD I or II and treated by a mood stabilizer are eligible. After 1 week of placebo, patients are randomized between either morning or mid-day exposure for 10 weeks of active BLT with glasses using a dose escalation at 7.5, 10, 15, 30 and 45 minutes/day. A further follow-up visit is planned 6 months after inclusion. Patients will be included by cohorts of 3, with at least 3 days of delay between them, and 1 week between cohorts. If none meet a dose limiting toxicity (DLT; i.e hypomanic symptoms), the initiation dose of the next cohort will be increased. If one patient meet a DLT, an additionnal cohort will start at the same dose. If 2 or 3 patients meet a DLT, from the same cohort or from two cohorts at the same dose initiation, the maximum tolerated dose is defined. This dose escalation will also take into account DLTs observed during the intra-subject escalation on previous cohorts, with a "Target Ceiling Dose" defined if 2 DLTs occured at a dose. Discussion Using an innovative and more ergonomic device in the form of glasses, this study aims to better codify the use of BLT in BD to ensure a good initiation and tolerance.

External electromagnetic penetration occurs hazard effects on electronic and electrical systems. complementary full wave analysis method need much of analysis time, memory. But BLT method need less time, memory. BLT method need to decouple the system into each volumes and surfaces for setting tubes and junctions. When 1 V/m impulsive EMP noise penetrates into PCB strip line(w=2mm, L=6cm), ringing wave appears at each loads attached in strip-line. Its frequency is 91.8MHz.

The MFIS-FET(Field Effect Transistor) devices using $BLT/Y_2O_3$ buffer layer on p-Si(100) substrates were fabricated by the Sol-Gel method and conventional memory processes. The crystal structure, morphologies and electrical properties of prepared devices were investigated by using various measuring techniques. From the C-V(capacitance-voltage) data at 5V, the memory window voltage of the $Pt/BLT/Y_2O_3/si$ structure decreased from 1.4V to 0.6V with increasing the annealing temperature from $700^{\circ}C\;to\;750^{\circ}C$. The drain current (Ic) as a function of gate voltages $(V_G)$ for the $MFIS(Pt/BLT/Y_2O_3/Si(100))-FET$ devices at gate voltages $(V_G)$ of 3V, 4V and 5V, the memory window voltages increased from 0.3V to 0.8V as $V_G$ increased from 3V to 5V.

In an attempt to improve adhesion strength between glass and metal due to use of Pb-free solder as a sealant between glass and metal in the manufacturing process of vacuum insulation window glass to maintain the vacuum volume, ultrasonic energy is often applied during the process of Pb-free sealing. In this study, we propose an ultrasonic vibrator with a 4 mm end tip radius which performs resonance frequency of 60 kHz and 14 um or higher vibration displacement. A frequency variation due to applied pressure on piezo disks, which was excluded in the computer simulation, was verified experimentally, and we have demonstrated a 17 um vibration displacement at 50 V input through the performance test of a vibrator constructed with our specification.

Issues of ferroelectric high-density memories (>64 Mb) indispensable for upcoming ubiquitous era have been on the cell integration less than $0.1\;\mu\textrm{m}^2$ and reliabilities. Thus nanoscale control of microstructures of ferroelectric films with large switching polarization has been one of the issues to obtain the uniform electrical properties for realization of high-density memories. In this study the grain orientations and distributions of BT-based films by spin-on coatings were examined by FEG-SEM/EBSD. Ferroelectric domain characteristics by PFM were also performed to study the dependence of reliabilities on the grain orientations and distributions. It is believed that understandings of the nucleation and growth mechanisms of the a- or b-axis oriented films during the thermal processes such as RTA and furnace annealing affecting on grain orientation and uniformity could be possible based on our experimental results.

This experiment was undertaken to investigate the atomization characteristics of the low viscosity biodiesel blended fuel and ultrasonic energy added one. Test fuels were conventional diesel fuel and biodiesel fuel. We compared to the characteristics of viscosity and surface tension, SMD between low viscosity biodiesel blended fuel and ultrasonic energy added one. Sauter mean diameter was measured under the variation of the spray distance. Viscosity and surface tension was measured under the variation of the time trace. To measure the droplet size, we used the Malvern system 2600C. Droplet size distribution was analyzed from the result data of Malvern system. Through this experiment, we found that the condition of the ultrasonic energy added situation had smaller Sauter mean diameter of droplet, viscosity and surface tension than that of the conventional situation.
