  • Thin films synthesized by plasma processes have been widely applied in a variety of industrial sectors. The structure control of thin film is one of prime factor in most of these applications. It is well known that the structure of this film is closely associated with plasma parameters and species of plasma which are electrons, ions, radical and neutrals in plasma processes. However the precise control of structure by plasma process is still limited due to inherent complexity, reproducibility and control problems in practical implementation of plasma processing. Therefore the study on the fundamental physical properties that govern the plasmas becomes more crucial for molecular scale control of film structure and corresponding properties for new generation nano scale film materials development and application. The thin films are formed through nucleation and growth stages during thin film depostion. Such stages involve adsorption, surface diffusion, chemical binding and other atomic processes at surfaces. This requires identification, determination and quantification of the surface activity of the species in the plasma. Specifically, the ions and neutrals have kinetic energies ranging from ~ thermal up to tens of eV, which are generated by electron impact of the polyatomic precursor, gas phase reaction, and interactions with the substrate and reactor walls. The present work highlights these aspects for the controlled and low-temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapour disposition (PECVD) of Si-based films like crystalline Si (c-Si), Si-quantum dot, and sputtered crystalline C by the design and control of radicals, plasmas and the deposition energy. Additionally, there is growing demand on the low-temperature deposition process with low hydrogen content by PECVD. The deposition temperature can be reduced significantly by utilizing alternative plasma concepts to lower the reaction activation energy. Evolution in this area continues and has recently produced solutions by increasing the plasma excitation frequency from radio frequency to ultra high frequency (UHF) and in the range of microwave. In this sense, the necessity of dedicated experimental studies, diagnostics and computer modelling of process plasmas to quantify the effect of the unique chemistry and structure of the growing film by radical and plasma control is realized. Different low-temperature PECVD processes using RF, UHF, and RF/UHF hybrid plasmas along with magnetron sputtering plasmas are investigated using numerous diagnostics and film analysis tools. The broad outlook of this work also outlines some of the 'Grand Scientific Challenges' to which significant contributions from plasma nanoscience-related research can be foreseen.

  • The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation with thiazolidinedione (TZD) on growth performance and meat quality of finishing pigs. In Experiment 1, 80 castrated finishing pigs (Large White${\times}$Landrace, BW = 54.34 kg) were randomly assigned to 2 treatments with 5 replicates of 8 pigs each. The experimental pigs in the 2 groups were respectively fed with a diet with or without a TZD supplementation (15 mg/kg). In Experiment 2, 80 castrated finishing pigs (Large White${\times}$Landrace, BW = 71.46 kg) were divided into 2 treatments as designed in Experiment 1, moreover, carcass evaluations were performed. The results from Experiment 1 showed that TZD supplementation could significantly decreased the average daily feed intake (ADFI) (p<0.05) during 0 to 28 d, without impairing the average daily gain (ADG) (p>0.05). In Experiment 2, the ADG was significantly increased by TZD supplementation during 14 to 28 d and 0 to 28 d (p<0.05) and the feed:gain ratio (F:G) was significantly decreased by TZD supplementation during 0 to 28 d (p<0.05). Compared with the control group, TZD group had significantly higher serum triglyceride (TG) concentration at 28h and serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels at 14 d (p<0.05). Moreover, there was an apparent improvement in the marbling score (p<0.10) and intramuscular fat (IMF) content (p<0.10) of the longissimus dorsi muscle in pigs treated by TZD supplementation. Real-time RT-PCR analyses demonstrated that pigs of TZD group had higher mRNA abundance of $PPAR{\gamma}$ coactivator 1 (PGC-1) (p<0.05) and fatty acid-binding protein 3 (FABP3) (p<0.05) than pigs of control group. Taken together, these results suggested that dietary TZD supplementation could improve growth performance and increase the IMF content of finishing pigs through regulating the serum parameters and genes mRNA abundance involved in fat metabolism.

  • 콘크리트는 덩어리이기 때문에 분석을 위해서는 분쇄를 할 수밖에 없다. 그러나, 콘크리트와 같이 여러 재료의 혼합물을 파쇄, 특정 입도를 선별하는 것에 따른 효과는 아직까지 적절하게 평가된 바가 없다. 본 연구에서는 시멘트와 비산재를 고화제로 사용하고, 매립재와 모래는 골재로 사용하여 콘크리트 공시체를 제작한 다음, 토양오염공정시험기준과 폐기물공정시험기준에 따라 중금속분석을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여, 먼저, 공시체를 어느 정도 파쇄한 다음 채질하여 <0.15 mm, 0.15~0.5 mm, 0.5~5 mm를 선별(분쇄방법 1)하여 분석하였다. 토양오염공정시험기준 분석 결과, 작은 입도의 시료가 높은 중금속 농도를 보이는 경향이 뚜렷하였다. 특히, <0.15 mm는 각 개별재료의 농도와 배합비로 계산된 이론값보다도 몇 배 높은 값을 보이기도 하였다. 반면, 시료 전체가 <0.15 mm를 갖도록 완전히 분쇄(분쇄 방법 2)하여 분석한 결과는 이론값과 비슷한 농도를 보였다. 이 같은 결과는, 부분 분쇄 시에는 작은 입도에 중금속 농도가 높은 시멘트와 비산재가 농집되는 것과 관련이 있다. 반면, 폐기물공정시험기준 분석에서는 모든 항목에서 매우 낮은 용출 농도를 보였고, 토양오염공정시험기준에서와 같은 경향도 관찰되지 않았다.

  • The differentiation of sex is important for species preservation. However, Fairy Pitta is sexually monomorphic and sex of an individual is indistinguishable with its external characteristics. We determined the sex of Fairy Pitta through DNA analysis and investigated the causes and time of injury and mortality and the size based on sex. We collected 21 samples at Jeju Island, Korean Peninsula from 2004 to 2013 and extracted DNA from them and amplified chromo helicase DNA-binding gene from Z and W chromosomes through Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). We confirmed their sex with the banding pattern through Agarose gel electrophoresis, i.e. male (ZZ): one banded and female (ZW) two banded. We distinguished the sex of 17 of 21 samples resulting in 9 males and 8 females. Most casualties were recorded in adult of both sexes. Causes of injury and mortality proved that female casualties occurred from window strikes, dehydration, car accident, predation by natural enemies, and male occurred from window strikes, car accident and dehydration. The time of injury and mortality in adults differ by sex. There was no difference between sexes in any of the six size parameters. As the time of injury and mortality differ by sex, the survey on the role and ecological nature by sex in breeding season must be carried out in the future. External measurements may not be reliable for sexing of Fairy Pitta and other traits such as vocal or characteristics are required to identify the sex of individuals in the field.

  • Group II형 샤페로닌은 단백질의 캡슐화를 유도하기 위해 열린 기질 결합 형태에서 닫힌 형태로 형태를 변화시키며, 이 때 ATP를 필요로 한다. 샤페로닌의 폴딩 유도는 ATP에 의한 샤페로닌의 구조 변화와 관련이 있는 것으로 보여진다. 본 연구에서는 Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3의 group II형 샤페로닌인 PhCpn의 ATPase 활성을 다양한 조건에서 측정하였다. PhCpn의 반응온도(37-85℃)와 ATP 농도(1.5-10 mM) 의존성을 확인한 결과, 반응 온도는 80℃에서, ATP 농도는 3 mM에서 최적 활성을 보였다. 염의 종류에 따른 ATPase의 활성을 분석한 결과, 1가 양이온은 300 mM LiCl, 2가 양이온은 5 mM MgCl2에서 최적 활성을 나타내었다. ATP 기질에 대한 Km 값은 2.17 mM, Vmax 값은 833.3 μM/min으로 계산되었다. 이러한 결과는 의약학용 및 바이오 산업용 단백질(효소)을 장기간 활성유지하는데 PhCpn을 이용할 경우에 귀중한 기초 자료를 제공할 것이다.

  • 새로운 수산용 항생제로서 사용이 증가되고 있는 OX의 흡수 및 배설속도를 측정하고 수온, 급이등의 외적 환경이 이들 속도에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 동시에 OTC에 대비한 OX의 항균성 그리고 어류 혈장내 단백질과의 결합도 비교검토하였다. OX는 조사된 13균주중 11균주에 대해 OTC보다 10배이하의 낮은 MIC치를 보였고 향어나 틸라피아의 혈장내 단백질과의 complex 형성에 의한 역가 감소도 OTC에 비교해서 나타나지 않아 일반적인 세균성어병의 치료제로서 OTC 보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 향어에의 OX 투여를 경구, 근육주사, 정맥주사, 약욕등의 방법으로 실시하여 혈중 농도를 비교 측정하였을 때, i.v와 약욕법은 높은 초기 혈중 농도와 빠른 배설 속도를 보였다. 경구 투여와 근육 주사시는 24~28시간 후 최고 혈중 농도에 도달하고 이후 천천히 배설되었으며, 특히 i.m 투여에서의 OX bioavailability는 경구 투여보다 높게 나타났다. 이러한 약동력학적인 특성은 수온이 $30^{\circ}C$$20^{\circ}C$에서 차이를 보이지 않았으나 2주일 절식을 시킨 향어에 약욕방법으로 항생제 투여를 하면 절식어에서의 초기 혈중 농도가 정상급이어에 비해 훨씬 낮게 나타나 어류 표피나 아가미의 생리 활성도에 따른 항생제의 흡수율 변화를 추정케 해 주었다.

  • This study was carried out to examine proliferative activity and expression of c-myc oncoprotein and p2lras in normal and preneoplastic rat livers induced by an in vivo mid-term chemical carcinogenesis assay. Sixty, six-week-old male specific pathogen free Sprague-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into five groups. Group I was received a single intraperitoneal(IP) dose(200mg/kg) of diethylnitrosamine(DEN). Group 2(10 rats) was operated partial hepatectomy(PH) and Group 3 was received IP(200mg/kg) DEN, fed two weeks later with 500ppm of phenobarbital(PB). Group 4 was received IP(200mg/kg) DEN, fed two weeks later 500ppm(PB) and PH at week 3 after the onset of experiment. While group 5(20 rats) was not treated and used as a control group. All the rats were sacrificed at age 14 weeks except 10 rats from group 5 were sacrificed at the onset of experiment. Livers of all rats were examined for 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine(BrdU) incoporation, proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA), silver-binding nucleolar organizer regions(AgNORs) counts per nucleus and expression of c-myc oncoprotein and p21ras. Both the number and area of the preneoplastic lesions were significantly(p<0.01) compared to other groups. A significant(p<0.01) increase in immunoreactive cells were detected in preneoplastic hepatocytes in Groups 3 and 4 by PCNA and BrdU immunohistochemical stain. The number of the positive cells were significantly(p<0.05) lower in normal 14-week-old rats than those of 6-week-old rats. The results showed that proliferative activity of the hepatocytes was increased by treatment with DEN, PH and PB. Meanwhile, AgNORs counts per nucleus were significantly(p<0.05) increased in the preneoplastic hepatocytes of rats in both groups 3 and 4. The expression of c-myc oncoprotein and p21ras were more readily localized within the hepatic preneoplastic lesions such as hyperplastic nodules. Especially, group 4 showed significantly (p<0.05) overexpressed levels compared to groups 1 and 3. These findings suggest that PCNA, BrdU and AgNORs are significantly increased and c-myc oncoprotein and p21ras are significantly overexpressed in hepatic preneoplastic lesions induced by mid-term carcinogenesis. So these parameters can be an effective markers for hepatic prencoplastic lesions.

  • Dopamine transporter concentrations have been known to decrease in Parkinson's disease (PD) or increase in Tourette's disorder. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of [I-123]N-(3-iodopropene-2-yl)-$2{\beta}$-carbomethoxy-$3{\beta}$-(4-chlorophenyl) tropane (IPT) as an imaging agent for measuring changes in transporter concentrations with PD. IPT labelled with 6.69+/-0.64 mCi(247.53+/-23.68 MBq) of I-123 was intravenously injected into ten patients(age: 55+/-11) with PD, and six normal controls(NC)(age: 46+/-14) as a bolus. Dynamic SPECT scans of the brain were then performed for 5 minutes each over 120 minutes on a triple headed camera. Time activity curves were generated for the left basal ganglia(LBG), right basal ganglia(RBC), and occipital cortex(OCC). The statistical parameters included the time to peak activity, the contrast ratio of LBG and RBG to OCC at several time points, and the accumulated specific binding counts/mCi/pixel(ASBC) from 0 to 115 minutes. The uptake of IPT in the brains of PD and NC peaked within 10 minutes of injection in all subjects. The maximum target to background ratio in the basal ganglia of PD and NC occurred at 85+/-20 min and 110+/-6 min of injection, respectively. The BG/OCC ratios at 115 minutes for PD and NC were 2.15+/-0.54 and 4.26+/-0.73, respectively. The ASBC at 115 minutes for PD and NC were 152.91+/-50.09 and 289.51+/-49.00, respectively. The ratio of BG/OCC for the NC was significantly higher than the ratio for PD. SPECT data matched with clinical diagnosis for PDs. The ratio between BG and OCC and the ASBC for PD were clearly separated from NC and may be useful outcome measures for clinical diagnosis. The findings suggest that IPT may be a very useful tracer for early diagnosis of PD and study of dopamine reuptake site.
