대표적인 재료로서 무를 선정하여 실제 건조과정을 이용한 dynamic test에 의하여 최적화에 사용할 수 있는 ascorbic acid파괴와 갈변의 kinetics를 구했다. 다양하게 변하는 건조조건에서 무우가 건조될 때의 수분함량과 온도의 변화과정을 이용하여 가정된 kinetic model을 적분하여 실제 측정된 ascorbic acid와 갈변의 data에 가장 접근하도록 parameter를 반복계산에 의하여 찾았다. Ascorbic acid 파괴와 갈변은 각각 1차와 0차반응으로, 두 반응의 온도의존성은 Arrhenius식으로 나타내었고 수분의존성의 가능한 여러 수학적 함수관계가 model의 단순성과 측정치와의 만족도면에서 비교되었고 타당한 품질변화 model을 분석하였다. 얻어진 kinetic model들은 실험치를 잘 예측하였고 건조공정의 최적화에 이용될 수 있는 것으로 생각되었다. Ascorbic acid 파괴는 건조초기 고수분함량에서 낮고 건조가 진행되어 수분 $9{\sim}12g/g$ dry solid부근에서 최대속도를 보이다가 더 이상 수분이 낮아지면서 감소하였다. 갈변은 고수분함량에서 낮다가 수분감소와 함께 증가하여 수분함량 $4{\sim}6g/g$ dry solid부근에서 최대를 나타내고 수분함량이 더욱 감소하면 계속 감소하였다.

바이오매스로부터 얻는 5-HMF(5-hydroxymethylfurfural)과 레불린산(LA; levulinic acid)는 그린 플랫폼 화학물질로, 폭넓은 응용분야를 가지며 바이오연료 및 바이오 화학물질로써 사용된다. 본 연구에서는, 글루코오스(D-glucose) 분해로부터 레불린산 형성의 kinetic를 다양한 온도 및 황산 농도를 통해 연구하였다. 실험은 황산 촉매(1-3 wt%)을 사용하였으며, 온도(140-200 ℃)는 넓은 범위에서 수행되었다. 글루코오스 용액은 10 ml 황산 용액에 글루코오스 1g을 용해시켜 만들었다. 반응 속도는 온도에 따라 증가하였고 활성화 에너지는 이전에 보고된 값과 유사한 경향을 보였다. 5-HMF의 최대 농도에 대한 반응 시간은 온도가 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 또한, 산 농도가 증가함에 따라 5-HMF의 분해속도가 빨라졌다. 황산 촉매의 농도가 증가함에 따라 레불린산의 최대 농도에 도달하는 시간이 줄어들었다. 온도를 계속 높이는 것은 레불린산의 최대 농도를 감소시켰고 휴민의 양을 증가시켰다. 결과를 통해 얻은 kinetic parameters는 5-HMF과 레불린산의 mechanism를 이해하는데 도움을 준다. 또한, 이 연구의 결과는 바이오매스에서 고농도의 레불린산 및 5-HMF를 얻어내는데 유용한 정보를 제공한다.

목적: 전립선암 (PC-3, LNCaP)의 이종이식쥐 모델에서 초음파 조영제를 이용하여 측정한 시간-신호강도 곡선을 통해 얻은 역학적 변수를 조직병리적 변수와 비교하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 20마리의 누드마우스에 인간전립선암세포(15 PC-3, 5 LNCaP)를 다리에 주입하여 이종이식쥐 모델을 제작하였다. 이후 $500{\mu}L$의 2세대 초음파 조영제인 Sonovue를 후안와정맥을 통해 주입하였다. 관심영역은 종양의 전체를 포함할 수 있게 그린 후, 시간-신호강도 곡선을 얻고 이를 감마변량함수에 적합시켰다. 최고신호강도(A), 최고도달시간 (Tp), 최고유입률 (washin), 최고 유출률 (washout), 50초까지의 곡선하면적 ($AUC_{50}$), 유입기면적 ($AUC_{in}$), 유출기면적 ($AUC_{out}$) 등을 감마변량함수에서 도출하였다. VEGF와 CD31에 대한 면역조직화학염색법을 시행하였고, 종양부피, 시야당 VEGF 면적백분율, CD31 양성 미세혈관수 (MVD) 등을 계산한 후 이를 시간신호강도에서 얻은 역학적 변수와 상관성을 조사하였다. 결과: PC-3 와 LNCaP간 동적 및 조직병리학적 변수의 통계적 차이는 없었다. MVD는 A (r=0.625, p=0.003), washin (r=0.462, p=0.040), AUC (r=0.604, p=0.005), $AUC_{out}$ (r=0.587, p=0.007) 과 유의한 상관관계를 보였다. 또한 종양부피와 $AUC_{50}$ (r=0.481, p=0.032), washin(r=0.662, p=0.001), $AUC_{out}$ (r=0.547, p=0.012) 도 유의한 양의 상관관계를 보였으며, washout은 MVD (r=-0.454, p=0.044) 및 종양부피 (r=-0.464, p=0.039)에 모두 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 그러나 시야당 VEGF 면적백분율은 역학적 변수와 유의한 상관관계를 보이지 않았다. 결론: MVD는 다수의 역학적 변수와 상관관계를 보였다. 초음파 조영제를 이용한 초음파는 전립선암 동물모델에서 종양의 혈관성을 예측할 수 있는 가능성을 보였다.

To elucidate the role of the evolutionarily conserved Tyr8 residue in rice Phi-class GSTF3, this amino acid was replaced with alanine and phenylalanine by site-directed mutagenesis, respectively. The replacement of Tyr8 with Ala significantly affected the catalytic activity and the kinetic parameters, whereas the substitutions of Tyr8 with Phe had almost no effect. The Y8A mutant resulted in approximately 90-100% decrease of the specific activity. Moreover, the Y8A mutant resulted approximately in 2-fold increase of $K_m$, approximately 60-80% decrease of $k_{cat}$, and approximately 6.5-fold decrease in $k_{cat}/K_m$. From the pH/log $k_{cat}/K_m$ plot, $pK_a$ values of the GSH in the wild-type enzyme-GSH complex, Y8A-GSH complex and Y8F-GSH complex were estimated to be approximately 6.8, 8.5 and 6.9, respectively. From these results, we suggest that the evolutionarily conserved Tyr8 residue in OsGSTF3 seems to influence the structural stability of the active site of OsGSTF3 rather than directly its catalytic activity.

Urea-SCR system is currently regarded as promising NOx reduction technology for diesel engines. SCR system has to achieve maximal NOx conversion in combination with minimal $NH_3$ slip. In this study, model based open loop control for urea injection was developed and assessed in the European Transient Cycle (ETC) for heavy duty diesel engine. On the basis of the transient modeling, the kinetic parameters of the $NH_3$ adsorption and desorption are calibrated with the experimental results performed over the zeolite based catalyst. $NH_3$ storage or surface coverage of SCR catalyst can not be measured directly and has to be calculated, which is taken into account as a control parameter in this model. In order to reduce $NH_3$ slip while maintaining NOx reduction, $NH_3$ storage control algorithm was applied to correct the basic urea quantity. If the actual $NH_3$ surface coverage is higher than the maximal $NH_3$ surface coverage, the urea injection quantity is significantly reduced in the ETC cycle. By applying this logic, the resulting $NH_3$ slip peak can be avoided effectively. With optimizing the kinetic parameters based on standard SCR reaction, it suggests that a simplified, less accurate model can be effective to evaluate the capability of model based control in the ETC cycle.

Samples of 13 species of forest tree leaves fed to livestock in the semi-hilly arid zone of Punjab State in India were collected at 30 d interval for 12 months, in order to assess their nutritional worth for livestock. The ground samples were pooled for 4 different seasons viz. dry hot, hot humid, fall and winter. The chemical composition irrespective of the season revealed that CP content varied between 8.9 (Carrisa) to 22.0% (Leucaena). Globulin was the major protein fraction in most of the leaves. The lowest concentration of cell wall constituents was observed in Morus alba and Grewea. The leaves in general became fiberous and lignified during winter and fall as compared to summer season. The leaves of Grewea, Morus alba, Leucaena, Carrisa and Acacia were rich in Ca, P and most of the trace elements. The total phenolics ranged between 1.88% (Azardirachta) to 15.82% (Acacia). The leaves of Acacia had the highest concentration of hydrolysable tannins (14.6%) whereas that of Carrisa had that of condensed tannins (5.9%). The condensed tannins (more than 3%) were negatively correlated to the digestibility of dry matter (DM), neutral detergent fiber (NDF) and crude protein (CP). The digestion kinetic parameters for DM, NDF and CP revealed that leaves of Morus alba, Zizyphus and Ehretia had highest insoluble but potentially degradable fraction. The minimum rumen fill values also revealed that leaves of Grewea, Azardirachta, Morus, Ehretia and Leucaena had great potential for voluntary DM intake. The leaves of Ougeinia, Malha, Dodenia and Carrisa had significantly higher rumen fill value indicating poor potential for voluntary DM intake. Season did not have any significant impact on digestion kinetic parameters except that most of the leaves had low potentially degradable fraction, which was degraded at slow rate during winter. It was concluded that the leaves of Morus, Ehretia, Grewea and Leucaena had great potential as livestock feed, while feeding of Ougeinia, Malha and Dodonea leaves should be avoided.

Adsorption is a widely used technique for the removal of dyes from wastewaters by variety of adsorbents. In this work, the main focus is on the potential assessment of anion exchange membrane for the removal of different dyes using batch system and investigation of experimental data by applying various kinetic and thermodynamic models. The removal of anionic dyes i.e., Eosin-B, Eriochrome Black-T and Congo Red by anion exchange membrane BII from aqueous solution was carried out and effect of various parameters such as contact time, membrane dosage, temperature and ionic strength on the percentage removal of anionic dyes was studied. The experimental data was assessed by kinetic models namely pseudo-first-order, pseudo-second-order, Elovich liquid film diffusion, Bangham and the modified Freundlich models equation have been used to analyze the experimental data. These results indicate that the adsorption of these anionic dyes on BII follows pseudo-second-order kinetics with maximum values of regression coefficient (0.992-0.998) for all the systems. The adsorption of dyes was more suitable to be controlled by a liquid film diffusion mechanism. The adsorptive removal of dye Eosin-B and Eriochrome Black-T were decreased with temperature and thermodynamic parameters such as free energy (${\Delta}G^o$), enthalpy (${\Delta}H^o$) and entropy (${\Delta}S^o$) for adsorption of dyes on membrane BII were calculated at 298 K, 308 K and 318 K. The values of enthalpy and entropy were negative for EB and EBT representing that the adsorption of these dyes on BII is physiosorptive and exothermic in nature. Whereas the positive values of enthalpy and entropy for CR adsorption on BII, indicating that its adsorption is endothermic and spontaneous in nature. It is evident from this study that anion exchange membrane has shown good potential for the removal of dyes from aqueous solution and it can be used as adsorbent for dues removal on commercial levels.

The growth kinetics of phototrophic microorganisms can be controlled by the light irradiance, the concentration of an inorganic nutrient, or both. A multi-component kinetic model is proposed and tested in novel batch experiments that allow the kinetic parameters for each factor to be estimated independently. For the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803, the estimated parameters are maximum specific growth rate $({\mu}_{max})=2.8/d$, half-maximum-rate light irradiance $(K_L)=11W/m^2$, half-inhibition-rate light irradiance $(K_{L,I})=39W/m^2$, and half-maximum-rate concentration for inorganic carbon $(K_{S,Ci})=0.5mgC/L$, half-maximum-rate concentration for inorganic nitrogen $(K_{S,Ni})=1.4mgN/L$, and half-maximum-rate concentration for inorganic phosphorus $(K_{S,Pi})=0.06mgP/L$. Compared to other phototrophs having ${\mu}max$ estimates, PCC6803 is a fast-growing r-strategist relying on reaction rate. Its half-maximum-rate and half-inhibition rate values identify the ranges of light irradiance and nutrient concentrations that PCC6803 needs to achieve a high specific growth rate to be a sustainable bioenergy source. To gain the advantages of its high maximum specific growth rate, PCC6803 needs to have moderate light illumination ($7-62W/m^2$ for ${\mu}_{syn}{\geq}1/d$) and relatively high nutrient concentrations: $N_i{\geq}2.3 mgN/L$, $P_i{\geq}0.1mgP/L$, and $C_i{\geq}1.0mgC/L$.

A ${\beta}$-glucosidase with the molecular mass of 160,000 Da was purified to homogeneity from cell extract of a cellulolytic bacterium, Cellulomonas uda CS1-1. The kinetic parameters ($K_m$ and $V_{max}$) of the enzyme were determined with pNP-cellooligosccharides (DP 1-5) and cellobiose. The molecular orbital theoretical studies on the cellulolytic reactivity between the pNP-cellooligosaccharides as substrate (S) molecules and the purified ${\beta}$-glucosidase (E) were conducted by applying the frontier molecular orbital (FMO) interaction theory. The results of the FMO interaction between E and S molecules verified that the first stage of the reaction was induced by exocyclic cleavage, which occurred in an electrophilic reaction based on a strong charge-controlled reaction between the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy of the S molecule and the lowest occupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energy of the hydronium ion ($H_3O^+$), more than endocyclic cleavage, whereas a nucleophilic substitution reaction was induced by an orbital-controlled reaction between the LUMO energy of the oxonium ion ($SH^+$) protonated to the S molecule and the HOMO energy of the $H_2O_2$ molecule. A hypothetic reaction route was proposed with the experimental results in which the enzymatic acid-catalyst hydrolysis reaction of E and S molecules would be progressed via $SN_1$ and $SN_2$ reactions. In addition, the quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) between these kinetic parameters showed that $K_m$ has a significant correlation with hydrophobicity (logP), and specific activity has with dipole moment, respectively.

This review article described the electrochemical Frumkin, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms of over-potentially deposited hydrogen (OPD H) and deuterium (OPD D) for the cathodic $H_2$ and $D_2$ evolution reactions (HER, DER) at Pt, Ir, Pt-Ir alloy, Pd, Au, and Re/normal ($H_2O$) and heavy water ($D_2O$) solution interfaces. The Frumkin, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms of intermediates (OPD H, OPD D, etc.) for sequential reactions (HER, DER, etc.) at electrode/solution interfaces are determined using the phase-shift method and correlation constants, which have been suggested and developed by Chun et al. The basic procedure of the phase-shift method, the Frumkin, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms of OPD H and OPD D and related electrode kinetic and thermodynamic parameters, i.e., the fractional surface coverage ($0{\leq}{\theta}{\leq}1$) vs. potential (E) behavior (${\theta}$ vs. E), equilibrium constant (K), interaction parameter (g), standard Gibbs energy (${\Delta}G_{\theta}{^{\circ}}$) of adsorption, and rate (r) of change of ${\Delta}G_{\theta}{^{\circ}}$ with ${\theta}$ ($0{\leq}{\theta}{\leq}1$), at the interfaces are briefly interpreted and summarized. The phase-shift method and correlation constants are useful and effective techniques to determine the Frumkin, Langmuir, and Temkin adsorption isotherms and related electrode kinetic and thermodynamic parameters (${\theta}$ vs. E, K, g, ${\Delta}G_{\theta}{^{\circ}}$, r) at electrode/solution interfaces.
