In this study, we have coated the inner surface of YSZ channel using LSM powder ink through depressurization process for making the cathode of a stacked planar-type SOFC module. To coat the surface of YSZ channel uniformly, we tried to find the optimum manufacturing condition for LSM ink. We used four different dispersants (BYK series) and two different solvents (ethanol and DMF) to make the LSM ink. It was revealed that the ink made with the ethanol solvent and the BYK-111 dispersant has the lowest viscosity, relatively low contact angle and most excellent dispersibility. After depressurizing a chamber filled with LSM ink and sintered YSZ channel, we have found that the YSZ channel was uniformly coated with LSM cathode. The LSM ink with 25 vol% BYK-111 showed the most uniform coating.

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) have posed serious public health problems, accounting for nearly 30% of mortality worldwide and their incidence is still increasing. Therefore, new treatment resources are necessary to prevent or manage the ever-increasing population of patients with CVDs. Sea cucumber is well known for its medical and health benefit effects, but it is not well known what/how effect it has on vascular disease. In the present study, we examined the protect effect of sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus 80% ethanol extract (AJE) on zebrafish embryo with the stimulation of free fatty acid, palmitate (PA). In vivo study showed that AJE can attenuate PA-induced toxicity through relieving the rapid heartbeat, increasing the survival rate and reducing the malformation in both wild type and Tg (fli1a:eGFP) transgenic zebrafish lines. Additionally, compare with PA treated embryos, the yolk sac area, body length, axial vascular segment (AVS) and intersegmental vessel (ISV) of the co-treatment group of AJE and PA were comparable to the control group. Moreover, AJE lowered the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), nitric oxide (NO) and inflammation-related genes induced by PA, and inhibited PA-induced vascular development disorders. Our data preliminarily verify that AJE could be a candidate resource for the prevention or therapy of CVDs.

Elicitor를 처리한 삼백초의 물과 ethanol 추출물들의 기능성화장품활성을 살펴보았다. Elicitor 처리한 삼백초 추출물의 항산화 효과는 1.5 mg elicitor/leaf 1 g (group A)에서 3.0 mg elicitor/leaf 1 g (group B)으로 처리 농도가 높아질수록 항산화 효과는 높아지는 것으로 확인되었으며, elicitor 처리에 의해 물 추출물보다 70% ethanol 추출물의 항산화 효과가 더 우수한 효과를 나타내었다. Elicitor 처리한 삼백초 추출물의 미용식품활성은 elastase 억제 효과와 미백효과가 비처리군인 대조구와 유사한 효소 억제 효과를 나타내어 elicitor 처리가 삼백초 추출물의 미백 및 주름개선 효과의 증대에는 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 확인되었으나, 염증 억제 효과가 비처리군인 대조구에 비해 우수한 염증 억제 효과를 나타내었으며, grpoup A와 group B 모두에서 대조구에 비해 억제율이 큰 폭으로 상승하는 효과를 나타내어 elicitor 처리가 유용물질의 산업화라는 전제를 충족시키기 위한 biomass 기법으로 매우 적당하다는 것을 시사해주었다. 따라서 삼백초 재배 시에 본 연구에서 사용한 elicitor를 처리하면 수확되는 삼백초의 단위 무게 당 생산량을 높일 수 있고, 생리활성도 증대시킬 수가 있어 산업화를 위한 원료생산에 효율적인 재배기법에 활용할 수 있을 것이라 판단되었다.

An integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer for biosensor applications was designed and fabricated. To implement the optimum biosensor a rib waveguide must have single mode operation and high sensitivity. The proposed Mach-Zehnder interferometer was fabricated based on these design rules, and its feasibility is confirmed by ethanol detection experiment in the real-time measurement system operating at 632.8 nm.

Conventional extraction of oil and azadirachtin, a botanical insecticide, from Azadirachta indica involves defatting the seeds and leaves using hexane followed by azadirachtin extraction with a polar solvent. In order to simplify the process while maintaining the yield we explored a binary extraction approach using Soxhlet extraction device and hexane and ethanol as non-polar and polar solvents at various ratios and extraction times. The highest oil and azadirachtin yields were obtained at 6 h extraction time using a 50:50 solvent mixture for both neem leaves (44.7 wt%, $720mg_{Aza}/kg_{leaves}$) and seeds (53.5 wt%, $1045mg_{Aza}/kg_{leaves}$), respectively.

During the screening of antiviral substances having inhibitory effects on Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infection on tobacco plants, we found a bacterial isolate KTB3, and identified it as Acinetobacter sp. which strongly inhibited the infection of TMV When the culture filtrate from KTB3 was applied on the upper surface of the Xanthi-nc tobacco leaves at the same time, or 24 hours before TMV inoculation, almost complete inhibition was achieved. Likewise, 86% inhibition was achieved, when the culture filtrate was applied on the underside of the leaves. In field trials, transmission of TMV from diseased seedlings to healthy ones during transplanting work was reduced by 92%, when the culture filtrate was sprayed onto the tobacco seedlings, cv. NC82, 24 hours before transplanting. No toxic effect was observed on the tobacco plants. Antiviral substance from the culture filtrate was purified by ethanol precipitation, dialysis, DEAE-cellulose, and Sephadex G75 gel column chromatography. The partially purified active material which showed positive color reaction to sugar and protein inhibited TMV infection by 60% at 1 ${\mu}$g/ml.

A very rapid and efficient separation technique for cellular rhizobial cyclosophoraoses was developed based on fractional precipitation and partition chromatography. Cyclosophoraoses are known to function in the osmotic regulation and root nodule formation of legumes during the nitrogen fixation process. Cyclosophoraoses are produced as unbranched cyclic (1longrightarrow12)-${\beta}$-D-glucans in Agrobacterium or Rhizobium species. Recent research has shown that cyclosophoraoses can form inclusion complexation with various unstable or insoluble guest chemicals, thereby implying great potential for industrial application. Typical separation of pure cellular cyclosophoraoses has been so far carried out by several time-consuming steps, including size exclusion, anion exchange, and desalting liquid chromatographies, with a relatively poor recovery. However, the proposed method demonstrated that the successive application of fractional ethanol precipitation and one step of silica gel-based flash column chromatography was enough to simultaneously purify neutral or anionic forms of cyclosophoraoses. This novel technique is very rapid and provides a high recovery.

형광 염료가 도핑 된 실리카 나노입자는 DNA 마이크로 에레이와 같은 바이오 라벨링 및 바이오 이미징에 활용되고 있으며, 높은 생체 적합성과 낮은 독성 및 높은 친수성의 특성을 가지고 있어 많은 주목을 받고 있는 기능성 나노소재이다. 본 논문에서는 형광 유기염료를 에탄올과 탈이온수에 각각 용해시킨 후 형광염료를 실리카 나노입자에 물리적으로 흡착시키는 방법과 화학적으로 도핑 시키는 방법으로 실리카 나노입자를 합성한 후 365 nm 파장의 자외선을 조사하여 형광특성을 분석하였다. 연구결과 형광 염료를 물리적으로 흡착시킨 실리카 나노입자보다 화학적으로 형광 염료를 도핑 시킨 실리카 나노입자의 형광특성이 우수하였으며, 도핑 된 형광 염료의 양이 많을수록 형광특성이 우수하였다. 형광 염료를 용해시키는 용매의 경우, 에탄올이 탈이온수와 비교하여 탁월한 형광 특성을 나타내었다. 또한 순수한 형광 염료와 형광 염료가 도핑된 실리카 나노입자의 광안정성을 조사한 결과, 형광 염료가 도핑 된 실리카 나노입자의 광안정성이 보다 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구결과를 바탕으로 형광염료가 최적으로 도핑 된 실리카 나노입자를 바이오 이미징 에이전트로 사용한다면 높은 광안정성과 형광특성으로 인하여 인체 내부의 생체 모니터링에 유용하게 활용될 것으로 전망된다.

The dependence on global fossil fuels has been gradually reducing all over the world. Some countries which recognized the important of environmental values were joining to carry out international GHG goals. Our country has also participated with high targets (37% reduction compared to BAU 2030 years). So we need to supply materials of lower GHG value such as a bio-diesel. Bio-alcohol is one of the similar bio-fuels that can be reducing GHG. A lot of countries had tried to commercialize through various R&D for bio-alcohol. In this study, we analyzed the fuel characteristics of bio-alcohol fuel produced by domestic technology. And we evaluated a possibility to use as vehicle fuel through mixing of bio-alcohol and gasoline. The mixed fuels were satisfied with 2.3 wt% of oxygen content that is standard of the petroleum and petroleum alternative fuel business Act. We tried to evaluate a emission characteristic of vehicle by mixed fuel. In accordance with the results we tried to find a correlation between fuel and emission.

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)에 대하여 가교제로써 glutaraldehyde (GA), maleic anhydride (MA)를 이용하여 제조한 코팅용액을 알칼리로 가수분해 시킨 poly acrylonitrile (PAN) 중공사 막표면에 코팅하여 막을 제조하였다. 제조된 막의 투과특성평가를 위해서 물/에탄올 혼합액에 대한 투과증발 실험을 수행하였다. $60^{\circ}C$의 90 wt%의 물/에탄올 혼합액에 대하여 반응온도 및 가교제의 농도변화에 따른 투과도 및 선택도를 측정하였다. 일반적으로 반응온도, 가교제 농도가 증가할 경우 투과도는 낮아지고, 선택도는 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다. 가교제로 GA의 대표적 결과는 반응온도 $120^{\circ}C$, GA 11 wt%로 투과도는 $165g/m^2hr$ 선택도는 81이고, MA는 반응온도 $120^{\circ}C$, MA 11 wt%로 투과도는 $174g/m^2hr$ 선택도는 73의 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.
