Silene seulensis Nakai was used as traditional medicines in Korea, we collected plant from demilitarized zone (DMZ). S. seulensis was extracted with 30, 50, and 70% ethanol and partitioned successively with n-hexane, EtOAc, dichloromethane and BuOH. These extracts (30, 50 and 70% ethanol) were evaluated the cytotoxicity on B16F10 and Hacat cell lines. The LC-MS/MS data of each fractions (n-hexane, EtOAc, dichloromethane, and BuOH) were compared with MS library, combined with ultraviolet/visual (UV/Vis) and MS data for faster determine structure by database search results. This led to the identification of four compounds (1-4) from S. seulensis. These compounds was isolated first time from S. seulensis. Their chemical structures are elucidated by combinations of NMR and mass spectrometry techniques.

Bio-imaging and drug carriers for delivery have created a huge demand for crystals. Crystals are fascinating materials that have been grown for a long time but obtaining biocompatible fluorescent crystals is a challenging task. We report on the growth of fluorescent crystals using a carbon dot (C-dot) solution by a hydrothermal process. The crystallization pattern of these C-dots exhibited a unique dendritic structure having a feather-like morphology. The growth temperature and pressure were maintained at 60℃ and 200 mmHg, respectively, for crystal growth. A green fluorescence (under UV light) that was observed in the C-dot solution was retained in the crystals formed from the solution. Cytotoxicity studies on Vero cells revealed the crystals to be extremely biocompatible. These fluorescent crystals are extremely well suited for biomedical and optoelectronic applications.

광원경화형 소재는 UV, 가시광선 등에 의해 반응하여 분자간의 가교가 일어나고 이러한 가교반응에 의해 물성이 제어되는 소재를 의미한다. 광원경화거동과정에서 수축현상이 발생하게 되는데 이때 발생하는 수축현상으로 인해 재료의 구조가 변하고 내부의 응력이 발생하는 현상 등의 문제가 발생한다. 열경화에 의한 수축현상을 분석하는 연구는 많이 진행되어 왔으나 광원경화에 대한 수축현상을 연구하는 분야는 현재 경화 수준이나 경화속도 등을 분석하는데 그치고 있다. 본 연구에서는 수축률 측정기를 통해 광원경화에 대한 수축현상을 실시간으로 살펴보고 재료의 차이에 따른 경화거동과 수축현상의 차이를 살펴보고자 한다. 관능기의 숫자가 변화함에 따라 수축률과 수축 속도의 변화가 생겼으며 분자량의 사슬길이에 따라 수축정도의 차이가 발생했다. 이러한 결과가 이론적인 결과 값인 양의 상관관계와는 반대로 음의 상관관계를 가짐을 분석하였다. 이는 수축률이 단순히 분자량과 관능기 숫자에 따라 결정되는 것이 아니라 분자구조에 따른 혼합물 내에서의 유동성 등에도 영향을 받음을 확인 할 수 있는 결과이다.

차세대 중형위성 3호의 탑재체 중 바이오캐비넷은 우주공간에서 바이오 3D프린팅 기법을 이용한 3차원 줄기세포 분화, 배양 및 분석 임무를 수행한다. 상기 3D 프린팅 기법은 궤도환경에서 사용을 목적으로 개발되었으나, 극심한 발사환경에 대한 별도의 검증이 이루어지지 않아 탑재체에 전달되는 발사하중을 저감 시키는 설계가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 바이오캐비넷에 전달되는 발사하중 저감을 위해 저강성 탄성 지지구조 적용 및 고댐핑 특성을 부여한 수동형 진동절연기를 제안하였으며, 고댐핑 특성을 부여하기 위해서 초탄성 형상기억합금의 초탄성 효과와 점탄성 테이프를 이용한 적층형 구조에 주목하였다. 제안한 진동절연기 인증모델에 대한 발사진동시험을 통해 설계유효성을 검증하였다.

Acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation by the anaerobic bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum has been considered a promising process of industrial biofuel production. Phosphotransbutyrylase (phosphate butyryltransferase, PTB) plays a crucial role in butyrate metabolism by catalyzing the reversible conversion of butyryl-CoA into butyryl phosphate. Here, we report the crystal structure of PTB from the Clostridial host for ABE fermentation, C. acetobutylicum, (CaPTB) at a 2.9 Å resolution. The overall structure of the CaPTB monomer is quite similar to those of other acyltransferases, with some regional structural differences. The monomeric structure of CaPTB consists of two distinct domains, the N- and C-terminal domains. The active site cleft was formed at the interface between the two domains. Interestingly, the crystal structure of CaPTB contained eight molecules per asymmetric unit, forming an octamer, and the size-exclusion chromatography experiment also suggested that the enzyme exists as an octamer in solution. The structural analysis of CaPTB identifies the substrate binding mode of the enzyme and comparisons with other acyltransferase structures lead us to speculate that the enzyme undergoes a conformational change upon binding of its substrate.

This study aims to propose a performance-based design method of a novel passive base isolation system, BIO isolation system, which is inspired by an energy dissipation mechanism called 'sacrificial bonds and hidden length'. Fragility functions utilized in this study are derived, indicating the probability that a component, element, or system will be damaged as a function of a single predictive demand parameter. Based on PEER framework methodology for Performance-Based Earthquake Engineering (PBEE), a systematic design procedure using performance and fragility objectives is presented. Base displacement, superstructure absolute acceleration and story drift ratio are selected as engineering demand parameters. The new design method is then performed on a general two degree-of-freedom (2DOF) structure model and the optimal design under different seismic intensities is obtained through numerical analysis. Seismic performances of the biologically inspired (BIO) isolation system are compared with that of the linear isolation system. To further demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of this method, the BIO isolation system of a 4-storey reinforced concrete building is designed and investigated. The newly designed BIO isolators effectively decrease the superstructure responses and base displacement under selected earthquake excitations, showing good seismic performance.

The chlorinated dioxins and furans have attracted considerable scientific and public concern because of their environmental persistence and super-toxicity through the foodchain. Recent dioxin scandals in several military bases have also contributed to a higher awareness on the side of food consumers as well as foodwaste combustion. However, there is continuing uncertainty over the relative importance of different sources of dioxins and furans to the soil environment. In difference to those awareness there is a main influence of potential soil contamination on the dioxin contents in groundwater. It is, therefore, important to provide a sound scientific framework and basis by which to evaluate the significance of the presence of dioxin in soils. Consequently, we have to identify the characteristics and nature of dioxin released into the soil environment, especially in agricultural aspect.

A plastic-based CE (capillary electrophoresis) microchip was fabricated by hot embossing process. A Si mold was made by wet etching process and a PMMA wafer was cut off from 1mm thick PMMA sheet. A micro-channel structure on PMMA substrate was produced by hot embossing process using the Si mold and the PMMA wafer. A vacuum assisted thermal bonding procedure was employed to seal an imprinted PMMA wafer and a blank PMMA wafer. The results of microscopic cross sectional images showed dimensions of channels were well preserved during thermal bonding process. In our procedure, the deformation amount of bonding process was below 1%. The entire fabrication process may be very useful for plastic based microchip systems.

Fabrication of MEA is important factor for proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). MEA of PEMFC with hot pressing and direct coating method were prepared, and performances were evaluated and compared each other. The effect of MEA preparation methods, hot pressing methods and direct coating methods, on the cell performance was analyzed by impedance spectroscopy and SEM. The performance of PEMFC with direct coating method was better than with hot pressing method because membrane internal resistance and membrane-interfacial resistance were reduced by elimination of hot pressing process in MEA fabrication. In addition the micro structure of MEA with direct coating method reveals uniform interface between membrane and catalyst layer.
