To establish an accurate asbestos analysis method for workplace samples, chrysotile, amosite, crocidolite, tremolite, actinolite, and anthophyllite asbestos fibers were analyzed for their morphology, atomic content and electron diffraction patterns. The morphology of asbestos fiber was evaluated in $10,000{\times}$ magnification. The atomic contents was analyzed by X-ray analyzer (TEM-EDX). Asbestos fibers were further assessed using electron diffraction (ED) patterns to provide an additional criterion for classifying the asbestos fibers. Twenty asbestos fibers were initially randomly selected for morphological evaluation; based on an aspect ratio (length : diameter = 3:1). Then the fibers were determined for their EDX spectrums and ED patterns. Our results showed that only chrysotile fiber has a hollow tube structure to be distinguished from other asbestos fibers. Although asbestos fibers had similar morphology, they had different EDX spectrums and ED patterns. Our results on the atomic content of asbestos fibers were very similar to those of other researchers, but amosite and crocidolite had a little difference in atomic content compared with the results from other researchers. The difference may be due to the difference in equipment or asbestos sample selection. A study on asbestos samples from biological specimens to establish a criterion for determining occupational asbestos exposed diseases should be done in the near future.

Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate 융제의 첨가가 고온 분무열분해 공정에 의해 합성된 녹색 발광의 헥사알루미네이트계 형광체의 형태 및 발광 특성에 미치는 영향을 보았다. 융제를 함유하지 않은 분무용액으로부터 반응기 온도 $900^{\circ}C$ 에서 $1,650^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 합성된 분말은 매우 속이 빈 형태를 가졌다. 반면에 ammonium dihydrogen phosphate 융제를 첨가한 분무용액으로부터 반응기 온도 $900^{\circ}C$ 에서 $1,650^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 합성된 분말은 완벽한 구형 형상을 가지면서 치밀한 구조를 가졌다. 반응기 온도 $1,600^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 ammonium dihydrogen phosphate 융제를 첨가한 분무용액으로부터 마그네토플룸비아트 구조를 가지는 헥사알루미네이트 형광체 분말이 합성되었다. Ammonium dihydrogen phosphate 융제는 저온에서 형광체의 발광 특성을 증가시키는데 효과적이었다. 반응기 온도 $1,650^{\circ}C$의 환원분위기하에서 분무열분해 공정에 의해 직접 제조된 형광체는 융제의 첨가 유무에 무관하게 후열처리 과정을 통해 최적화된 형광체와 유사한 발광 세기를 가졌다.

다층카본나노튜브(MWCNT)가 강화된 폴리에틸렌에틸아크릴레이트(EEA) 나노복합체를 용융혼합법과 용액혼합법으로 제조하였다. 카본나노튜브의 형태 및 함량변화에 따른 기계적, 열적, 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. MWCNT의 함량이 증가함에 따라 인장강도, 모듈러스는 증가하였고, 파단신장률은 감소하였다. 할로우 형태의 MWCNT가 일반적인 MWCNT에 비해 우수한 인장강도 및 파단신장률을 나타내었다. MWCNT 함량이 증가함에 따라 약 $40^{\circ}C$의 열분해온도의 향상을 보였다. 전기적 특성은 용융혼합법의 경우가 가장 높은 전기저항 특성을 나타내었고, 용액혼합법의 경우 일반형 MWCNT가 할로우 MWCNT보다 낮은 체적저항을 보였다. MWCNT의 함량이 증가할수록 파단면 위로 돌출되는 CNT 수가 증가하였고, 인장변형을 가하면 표면 위로 돌출되는 CNT 수와 길이가 크게 증가하였다. 용융혼합된 시편이 용액혼합에 비해 돌출된 CNT의 수와 길이가 현격히 낮았다.

Dual-responsive amphiphilic block copolymers were synthesized by combining enzymatic ring-opening polymerization (eROP) of ${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone (CL) and ATRP of N,N-dimethylamino-2-ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA). The obtained block copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), $^1H$ NMR and FTIR-IR. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) of copolymer was determined by fluorescence spectra, it can be found that with hydrophilic block (PDMAEMA) increasing, CMC value of the polymer sample increased accordingly, and the CMC value was 0.012 mg/mL, 0.025 mg/mL and 0.037 mg/mL for $PCL_{50}$-b-$PDMAEMA_{68}$, $PCL_{50}$-b-$PDMAEMA_{89}$, $PCL_{50}$-b-$PDMAEMA_{112}$, $PCL_{50}$-b-$PDMAEMA_{89}$ was chosen as drug carrier to study in vitro release profile of anti-cancer drug (taxol). The temperature and pH dependence of the values of hydrodynamic diameter (Dh) of micelles, and self-assembly of the resulting block copolymers in water were evaluated by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The result showed that with the temperature increasing and pH decreasing, the Dh decreased. Drug-loaded nanoparticles were fabricated using paclitaxel as model. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) had been explored to study the morphology of the hollow micelles and the nanoparticles, revealing well-dispersed spheres with the average diameters both around 80 nm. In vitro release kinetics of paclitaxel from the nanoparticles was also investigated in different conditions (pH and temperature, etc.), revealing that the drug release was triggered by temperature changes upon the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) at pH 7.4, and at $37^{\circ}C$ by an increase of pH.

A highly porous Biphasic Calcium Phosphate (BCP) scaffold was fabricated by the sponge replica method with a microwave sintering technique. The BCP scaffold had interconnected pores ranging from $80\;{\mu}m$ to $1000\;{\mu}m$, which were similar to natural cancellous bone. To enhance the mechanical properties of the porous scaffold, infiltration of polycaprolactone (PCL) was employed. The microstructure of the BCP scaffold was optimized using various volume percentages of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) for the infiltration process. PCL successfully infiltrated into the hollow space of the strut formed after the removal of the polymer sponge throughout the degassing and high pressure steps. The microstructure and material properties of the BCP scaffold (i.e., pore size, morphology of infiltrated and coated PCL, compressive strength, and porosity) were evaluated. When a 30 vol% of PMMA was used, the PCL-BCP scaffold showed the highest compressive strength. The compressive strength values of the BCP and PCL-BCP scaffolds were approximately 1.3 and 2MPa, respectively. After the PCL infiltration process, the porosity of the PCL-BCP scaffold decreased slightly to 86%, whereas that of the BCP scaffold was 86%. The number of pores in the $10\;{\mu}m$ to $20\;{\mu}m$ rage, which represent the pore channel inside of the strut, significantly decreased. The in-vitro study confirmed that the PCL-infiltrated BCP scaffold showed comparable cell viability without any cytotoxic behavior.

We identified Lacrymaria velutina of the Coprinaceae in Korea. The unusually large and sturdy fruiting body, fibrillose to fibrillose-scaly cap and stalk without a volva with an obscure superior hairy ring zone or hairy annulus, and blackish brown, warted spores distinguished this species from closely related Psathyrella species. An illustrated account of the microscopic traits is presented. Fruiting bodies with obtusely hemispherical caps, 2.5~6 cm, becoming convex with age; surface dry, densely fibrillose-scaly with split margin; stipe, 4.5~6 cm, equal, hollow, fibrillose, dry, whitish above the superior ring zone, light brown below; crowded gills, adnexed, dark black at maturity. Pileipellis typically cellular with the gill edge appearing white and beaded. Blackish brown basidiospores that discolor in concentrated sulfuric acid. Spores elliptical, warted, $9\sim11{\times}6\sim8{\mu}m$, with prominent snout-like germpores. Cheilocystidia abundant, $57\sim68{\times}19\sim25{\mu}m$, and narrowly elongated clavate, often clustered in threes or fours. Pleurocystidia rarely present, $45\sim47.5{\times}12\sim13{\mu}m$, and clavate to utriform. This trait distinguishes our sample as L. velutina from other Psathyrella spp. of the Coprinaceae, which have smooth spores. This taxon was clarified by the observation that Psathyrella spores fade in concentrated sulfuric acid. A molecular phylogenetic study revealed that our specimen was Lacrymria velutipes, which is closely related to Lacrymaria lacrymabunda. Moreover, those two species are clearly distinguishable from other Psathyrella species, which agreed with the morphologically distinctive traits described above. We believe that this is the first report of this taxon, which has not been described in Korea.

조직특이적 프로모터 및 벡터를 연구하고 검증하기 위해서는 조직 및 종의 특이성을 유지하는 세포 시스템을 개발하는 것이 바람직하다. 이러한 시스템은 형질전환동물 모델에 대한 효과적인 대안이다. 우리는 베타 카제인 (CSN2)의 세포 형태와 mRNA 수준에 기초하여 일차 배양으로부터 돼지 유선 상피 세포 주 (PMECs)를 확립하였다. 선택된 PMECs는 cytokeratin 항체에 의해 염색되었으며, 유선 상피 세포에 존재한다고 생각되어지는 유즙 단백질 유전자 (CSN2, 락토페린 및 유청 단백질)를 발현하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 3D 배양에서 PMECs932-7의 acini 구조를 확인하기 위해 살아있는 세포를 핵산에 결합하는 SYTO-13으로 염색하였다. 우리는 마트리겔 (matrigel)에 있는 PMECs의 acini가 말초 세포의 응집에 의해 형성되고 공간의 lumen을 특징으로 한다는 것이 관찰하였다. 우리는 PMECs의 matrigel 사용법과 세포 밀도를 포함한 세포 배양 조건의 영향을 시험함으로서 시스템을 시연했다. 이러한 결과는 PMCEs의 유선 상피 세포는 유전적 또는 구조적 특징을 갖고 있음을 시사하고 있다.

A novel hydrophilic poly (vinylidene fluoride)/poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PVDF/PPTA) blend membrane was prepared by in situ polycondensation of p-phenylene diamine (PPD) and terephthaloyl chloride (TPC) in PVDF solution with subsequent nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) process. For comparison, conventional solution blend membrane was prepared directly by adding PVDF powder into PPTA polycondensation solution. Blend membranes were characterized by means of viscometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). The effects of different blending methods on membrane performance including water contact angle (WCA), mechanical strength, anti-fouling and anti-compression properties were investigated and compared. Stronger interactions between PVDF and PPTA in in situ blend membranes were verified by viscosity and XPS analysis. The incorporation of PPTA accelerated the demixing rate and caused the formation of a more porous structure in blend membranes. In situ blend membranes exhibited better hydrophilicity and higher tensile strength. The optimal values of WCA and tensile strength were $65^{\circ}$ and 34.1 MPa, which were reduced by 26.1% and increased by 26.3% compared with pure PVDF membrane. Additionally, antifouling properties of in situ blend membranes were greatly improved than pure PVDF membrane with an increasing of flux recovery ratio by 25%. Excellent anti-compression properties were obtained in in situ blend membranes with a stable pore morphology. The correlations among membrane formation mechanism, structure and performance were also discussed.
