Rhodamine B (RhB) and rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) were employed as catalysts for the synthesis of cyclic carbonate from carbon dioxide and epoxide. It turned out that the catalytic activity of Rh6G was nearly 29 times higher than that of RhB at 1 atm pressure, $90^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, the catalytic efficiency of RhB and Rh6G was greatly enhanced with triethylamine as co-catalyst. Under the optimized conditions, the best isolated yield (93%) of cyclic carbonate was achieved without organic solvent and metal component.

본 연구는 $SF_6$와 Dry-air(건조공기)가 혼합된 절연매체의 절연 특성과 부분방전 특성 연구를 위하여 기초실험용 쳄버와 70kV급 GIS mock up 을 이용하여 교류전압을 인가하여 실험이 수행되었다. 전자의 경우, Sphere gap 및 Needle/Plate 전극시스템을 이용하여 순수 $SF_6$가스와 Dry-air의 절연내력을 비교하고, 챔버의 압력을 5기압으로 유지한 상태에서 Dry-air와 $SF_6$가스의 혼합비를 변화시키면서 절연내력이 측정되었다. 후자의 경우, 기초실험에서 도출된 $SF_6$가스와 Dry-air의 최적의 혼합비율을 선택한 후, 방전 개시전압과 부분방전 양상을 순수 $SF_6$가스의 결과와 비교 분석하기 위한 실험을 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 GIS 사고의 주요원인이 되는 결함들, 즉 Protrusion, Floating, Free moving particle 들을 인위적으로 모의하여 Mock up 내부에 설치하고 내부 압력을 5기압으로 유지한 상태에서 수행되었다. 전자의 경우, $0.5{\sim}5$ 기압 범위내 에서 Dry-air 압력을 변화시켰을 때 절연내력은 전극시스템에 무관하게 순수 $SF_6$가스의 결과치의 $40{\sim}50%$정도이다. 또한 챔버 압력이 5기압일 경우, Needle/Plate 전극을 이용했을 경우, Dry-air 가 80% 혼합된 절연매체는 순수 $SF_6$가스 절연내력의 80%정도이다. 후자의 경우, 인가전압을 고정 시켰을 때, 부분방전 패턴과 방전크기는, 순수 $SF_6$가스와 Dry-air 가 80% 혼합된 절연매체는 동일한 패턴과 방전크기를 나타내고 있다. 이러한 결과를 근거로, 가스 압력이 5기압에서 운전되는 전력기기의 절연 매체로서 혼합가스를 사용할 경우, $SF_6$가스와 Dry-air의 혼합비는 2:8정도가 적절한 것으로 제안한다.

In this study, binary polyamide 6,6(PA 6,6)/ethylene-propylene rubber(EPM) or EPM-g-maleic anhydride(EPM-g-MA) blends and ternary PA 6,6/EPM/EPM-g-MA blends with various elastomer content were prepared in order to investigate the degree of influence of elastomer content and average particle size, morphology, and distribution of dispersed elastomer on mechanical and thermal properties of blends. According to the results, notched Izod impact strength and relative crystallinity of binary blends modified with EPM-g-MA as well as average particle size and distribution of dispersed elastomer in such blends were more improved than those of binary blends modified with EPM. Notched Izod impact strength of blend whose composition ratio(wt % ) was 70:30(PA 6,6 : EPM-g-MA) was the highest among the binary PA 6,6/EPM-g-MA blends. The impact strength was increased by 25 times and its relative crystallinity was increased by 7 times when compared with those of polyamide 6,6. In the case of ternary PA 6,6/EPM/EPM-g-MA blend of which composition ratio was 70:15:15(PA 6,6:EPM:EPM-g-MA), the elastomer was finely distributed with the average particle size of $0.56{\mu}m$. The Izod impact strength of this blend was the highest of all blends prepared with different elastomer content.

A series of bicyclic 4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindazole derivatives 6 have been synthesized, and their herbicidal activities were studied in flooded paddy condition. The compounds 6 showed herbicidal effects to barnyardgrass and Monochoria and good tolerance against rice at a rate of $0.063kg/ha{\sim}0.25kg/ha$.

Sulphur-hexafluoride has extensively been used as an insulating gas of electric power equipment in substation for its high dielectric strength, non-toixity and non-flammable properties. But it is very expensive and is liquidizable under the condition of low temperature and high pressure. And it is very sensible to the locally high electric field strength. To resolve these problems, we studied 50% FOV and V-t characteristics of $SF_6-N_2$ mixtures under positive and negative lightning impulses using a 25mm rod-plane gap. 50% FOV of $SF_6-N_2$ 50% mixture was about 85% of pure $SF_6$ and it was known that $SF_6-N_2$ mixtures can be used as an economic substitution insulating gas for $SF_6$.

The 5-HT6 antagonists are mainly related to the treatment of cognitive dysfunction or impairment associated with Alzheimer's disease and schizophrenia. There have been lots of efforts to develop 5-HT6 antagonists. As in our efforts, arylsulfonylpiperazine derivatives 1-3 were designed, synthesized and biologically evaluated against the human recombinant 5-HT6 serotonin receptor. Total 36 compounds were synthesized and the most active compound among the synthesized compounds is compound 2h with an IC50 value of 1.5 μM. The compound 2h is novel as 5-HT6 receptor ligand and could act as lead for the novel 5-HT6 receptor ligands.

A commercial cyclic diphosphonate ester (TPMP) and melamine (MA) was combined and added to polyamide 6 (PA6) to prepare the fire retardant PA6. An increase of the oxygen index to 28.6 as well as an improvement of the UL-94 classification to V-0 rating was observed. Cone measurements explained the rate of heat release (RHR) decreased and TGA showed the early decomposition and high solid residue due to co-addition of TPMP and MA, suggesting the occurrence of synergistic effect of TPMP and MA on fire resistance of PA6. The morphology of the char developed during combust ion showed the appearance of thick, intumescent cells on the surface of retardant PA6, which protects the underlying material from the action of the heat flux or flame and limits the diffusion of combustible volatile products towards the flame and oxygen.

Colorectal cancer (CRC), the third most common cancer worldwide, also has the highest rate of cancer-related morbidity and mortality. WNT signaling is initiated by binding of WNT to various receptors, including frizzleds (FZDs), and plays a critical role in CRC and other tumor development by regulating proliferation, differentiation, migration, apoptosis, and polarity. Among the members of the FZD family, FZD6 is broadly expressed in various tissues, and its overexpression has been reported in several cancers, suggesting an important role in cancer development. In this study, we investigated the expression of FZD6 in patients with CRC and found it to be increased in tumors, as compared to paired adjacent non-tumor tissues. Additionally, we found that FZD6 expression was negatively regulated by miR199a5p in CRC cells. These results suggest that overexpression of FZD6, mediated by reduced expression of miR-199a-5p, may play an important role in the development of CRC. [BMB Reports 2015; 48(6): 360-366]

The human PTK6 (also known as Brk) polypeptide, which is deduced from its full-length cDNA, represents a non-receptor protein tyrosine kinase (PTK). It contains SH3, SH2, and tyrosine kinase catalytic domains that are closely related to Src family members. We generated an antihuman PTK6 antibody by immunizing rabbits with a PTK6-specific oligopeptide conjugated to BSA, which corresponds to 11 amino acid residues near the C-terminus. An immunoblot analysis with the antibody detected an expected 52-kDa band in various mammalian transformed cell lines. Immunoprecipitation and immunoblot analyses demonstrated that PTK6 is phosphorylated on the tyrosine residues) and interacts with approximately a 23-kDa tyrosine-phosphorylated polypeptide (most likely a substrate of PTK6) in breast carcinoma T-47D cells. An immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated that PTK6 is localized throughout the cytoplasm of T-47D cells. These results support a possible role for PTK6 in the intracellular signal transduction through tyrosine phosphorylation.

In these days $SF_6$ mixtures and alternative gas have been studied because of global warming and liquefying at low temperature and high pressure. At present work the breakdown characteristics of $SF_6/CF_4$ mixture in non-uniform field was performed. The experiments were carried out under positive and negative standard lightning impulse (SLT) voltages. The point-plane electrode was used with 3 mm gap distance in the test chamber. The $SF_6/CF_4$ mixture which contain 20% of $SF_6$ was compared with pure $SF_6$ and $CF_4$ gas. Experimental gas pressure ranged from 0.1 to 0.4 MPa. The breakdown voltage under negative SLI is higher than the breakdown voltage under positive voltage. And the breakdown voltage of $SF_6$ 20%, $CF_4$ 80% mixture is similar to that of pure $SF_6$.
