The synthesis and evaluation of a novel calix[4]arene-based fluorescent chemosensor 1 for the detection of I. is described. The fluorescent changes observed upon addition of various anions show that 1 is selective for I. over other anions. Addition of I. results in ratiometric measurements with 1 : 1 complex ratio.

Five new 4- or 8-substituted-7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives (1-5) were synthesized as fluorescent sensors for metal ions. Fluorescent changes and selectivity for metal ions were compared based on the introduction of different ligands and/or testing with different substitution positions of 7-hydroxycoumarin in aqueous solution. Especially, probes 2, 3 and 5 displayed large fluorescence enhancements with $Zn^{2+}$ and $Cd^{2+}$. Probes 2 and 3 showed moderate selectivity for $Zn^{2+}$ over $Cd^{2+}$. On the other hand, probe 4 showed large fluorescence quenching effects upon the addition of $Ag^+$ and $Hg^{2+}$.

In this study, a fluorescent ethanol sensor is developed to determine the ethanol concentration in the liquid phase. The sensor is developed using a complex of resazurin (RA)/resorufin (RO) and a hydrotalcite (HT) catalyst in a sol-gel matrix of methyltrimethoxysilane (MTMS) to produce a fluorescent ethanol-sensing membrane (RA/RO^*HT membrane). The operation mechanism of the RA/RO^*HT membrane is based on (i) the oxidation of ethanol to acetaldehyde and (ii) the reduction of RA to RO, through electron flows followed by EtOH ↔ HT ↔ RA/RO ↔ EtOH interactions. These possible redox reactions can lead to an increased fluorescence intensity of the RA/RO^*HT membrane as the ethanol concentration increases. The RA/RO^*HT membrane shows a linear detection range of 1-20 vol.% EtOH with limit of detection (LOD) of 0.178%. Additionally, the RA/RO^*HT membrane has high sensitivity and accuracy for determining the alcohol content in several Korean alcoholic beverages.

본 논문에서는 지하주차장 조명방식의 효율성을 확보하기 위하여 디밍제어와 마이크로웨이브센서기술을 접목하여 새로운 조명제어시스템을 설계 구현한다. 이를 통하여 기존 시스템에 비하여 성능과 비용 측면에서 효율적인 조명체계를 확립하고 궁극적으로 에너지 절감효과를 얻고자 한다. 기존 아파트 지하주차장의 에너지 절감방식은 대부분 설계 당시 설치된 형광등을 전부 운영하지 않고 격등으로 운영하는 방책에 의존하고 있다. 일부에서는 이와 같은 격등 운영을 원활히 하기 위하여 적외선센서를 설치하여 형광등을 점 소등하거나, 타이머를 활용한 형광등의 점등시간을 조절하고 있다. 이러한 기존의 방식은 단순히 설계된 전기사용량에 비해 소모되는 양을 감소시키는 방식으로 체계적인 에너지 절감 효과를 기대할 수 없으며, 방치되는 경우 지속적인 소모가 발생하는 등 매우 비효율적으로 운영되고 있다. 본 조명제어시스템은 마이크로웨이브센서를 통해서 사물을 감지하여 조명등의 점등 시점을 알려주고, LED 형광등의 디밍제어를 통해 환경에 따라 그 밝기를 조정함으로써, 일정한 조도로 상시 점등되는 기존의 지하주차장 조명체계를 획기적으로 개선한다. 본 논문을 통하여 설계된 조명제어시스템을 일반 지하주차장 조명체계에 적용하여 검증을 실시한 결과 최대 약 81.9%의 에너지 절감효과를 얻었다.

Bacterial light-oxygen-voltage-sensing photoreceptor-derived flavin mononucleotide (FMN)-based fluorescent proteins act as a promising distinct class of fluorescent proteins utilized for various biomedical and biotechnological applications. The key property of its independency towards oxygen for its chromophore maturation has greatly helped this protein to outperform the other fluorescent proteins such as GFP and DsRed for anaerobic applications. Here, we describe the feasibility of FMN-containing fluorescent protein FbFP as a metal-sensing probe by measuring the fluorescence emission changes of a protein with respect to the concentration of metal ions. In the present study, we demonstrated the mercury-sensing ability of FbFP protein and the possible amino acids responsible for metal binding. A ratiometric approach was employed here in order to exploit the fluorescence changes observed at two different emission maxima with respect to Hg²⁺ at micromolar concentration. The engineered variant FbFP_C56I showed high sensitivity towards Hg²⁺ and followed a good linear relationship from 0.1 to 3 μM of Hg²⁺. Thus, further engineering with a rational approach would enable the FbFP to be developed as a novel and highly selective and sensitive biosensor for other toxic heavy metal ions as well.

NTSC 시스템 제정 당시의 기준백색은 6774K의 CIE C 광원을 사용하였다. 그후, 일반 소비자들이 흑백 텔레비전에 대하여 보다 푸른 백색을 선호하였기 때문에 칼러 텔레비전 수상기는 기준백색으로 9300K 근처로 조정되었다. 그러나 최근의 연구에 의하면 디스플레이 백색의 색온도는 주위 조명광보다 $3000{\sim}4000K$ 정도 높게 정하는 것이 좋다고 알려져 있다. 따라서, 주위 조명광에 따른 수상기에서의 디스플레이 백색을 정하기 위하여 주위 조명광의 분류가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 경제적이고 간단한 옐로우 및 사이안의 2 칼러 광센서를 사용하여 주위 조명광이 백열등 또는 형광등인지를 분류하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법을 실제 실험해 본 결과, 주위 조명광이 백열등, 형광등, 및 이들의 혼합조명 상태의 판별에 매우 유용함을 확인하였다.

Fluorescent organic molecules that respond to changes in the $Fe^{2+}$ concentration with selectivity to other abundant di-valent metal ions will offer the ability to understand the dynamic fluctuations of the $Fe^{2+}$ ion in interesting media. The use of 6-Br-ppmbi, derived from 2-pyridin-2-yl-benzimidazole, for metal ion-selective fluorescence recognition was investigated. Screening of the main group and transition metal ions showed exclusive selectivity for $Fe^{2+}$ ions even in the presence of competing metal ions. In addition, the requirement for low concentrations of probe molecules to detect certain amounts of $Fe^{2+}$ ions make this sensor unique compared to previously reported $Fe^{2+}$ ion sensors.

The functional materials have been developed as a promising research topic toward the end uses for organic materials and applications. In this study, fluorescein based dye was synthesized by three step reaction. We have designed and synthesized the colorimetric dye through the reactions of fluorescein and methoxy group and ethylene diamine and squaric acid. The structure of the non-fluorescent spirolactam was elucidated by $^1H$-NMR, LC-Mass and FT-IR analyzes. Further studies are in progress to understand the effects of various substituent during the recognition process and to develop fluorescein based sensors for cations or anions.
