본 논문은 1997년 1월부터 2008년 7월까지의 주별 휘발유가격에 장기적 단기적 가격비대칭성이 존재하는지를 연구한다. 어떤 형태의 가격비대칭이 어느 단계에서 발생하는지 파악하기 위해 생산에서 소비에 이르는 과정을 도매단계와 소매단계로 분리해서 분석한다. TAR와 M-TAR 공적분모형과 거기에 대응하는 비대칭적 오차수정모형에 근거한 분석방법을 이용한다. 도매가격에 있어서는 원유가격 및 환율과 연관된 비대칭성이 두 형태의 오차수정모형에서 장기와 단기에 모두 발견된다. 단기적인 가격비대칭성을 설명하는데는 환율이 원유가격보다 더 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타난다. '로켓과 깃털'에서 예상되는 대폭의 즉각적인 조정과는 달리 원유가격이나 환율의 상승은 도매가격의 인상 후 2주가 되어서야 통계적으로 유의한 주된 영향을 미친다. 그리고 특이하게도 비대칭적으로 원유가격이나 환율의 하락은 같은 기에 도매가격에 통계적으로 유의한 효과를 전혀 미치지 못한다. 소매가격에 있어서는 도매가격과 관련된 비대칭성이 오직 장기에서만 드러난다. 단기적으로는 대칭적으로 가격조정이 이루어진다고 할 수 있다. 도매단계에서 발견된 장기적 비대칭성과는 대조적으로 균형으로부터의 음(-)의 이탈이 양(+)의 이탈보다 장기적 균형 수준을 향해서 더 빠르게 조정되는데 이는 소비자에게는 불리한 현상으로 보인다. 국내 주별 휘발유가격 분석에서 TAR 과정 및 M-TAR 과정으로 나타낸 장기적 가격비대칭이 존재하는 것을 추정된 threshold를 이용해 확언한 것 그리고 장기 및 단기의 가격비대칭을 같은 모형에서 분석한 것은 본 연구가 처음으로 시도했다는 의미를 가진다.

TAR (Transformation-Associated Recombination) cloning법은 복잡한 고등생물의 게놈으로부터 유전자나 특정 염색체 부위를 선별적 분리를 가능하게 한다. 이 방법은 목적으로 하는 염색체 부위의 주변에 존재하는 비교적 짧은 게놈 염기서열에 대한 정보를 필요로 한다. 이 기술은 출아효모의 spheroplasts 형질전환 동안 목적 유전자를 포함한 게놈 DNA와 그 유전자의 5' 또는 3' 말단 서열 (hook)을 포함하고 있는 TAR vector 사이에 일어나는 상동성 재조합에 의해 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 TAR cloning 법을 상동성 유전자의 분리에 사용할 수 있는가를 조사하기 위해, 연간과 마우스 게놈의 HPRT 유전자를 선택하였다. 그 결과, 인간과 마우스의 게놈으로부터의 HPRT 유전자의 분리 빈도는 TAR vector로서 hHPRT hook 혹은 mHPRT hook을 사용한 경우에 거의 동일하게 나타났다. 또한 mHPRT 유전자의 gap 부분의 염기서열을 결정하여, 이 부분에 염기서열의 불안정의 요인이 되는 비정상적 특성을 발견하였다. 결론적으로 TAR cloning법을 이용하여 다른 이종 간의 게놈으로부터 상동성 유전자 즉 orthologue의 분리가 가능하였다. 더욱이 TAR cloning 시스템을 이용하여 고등동물 게놈 상에 남아있는 gap 부분을 메움으로서 고등동물의 모든 유전자들의 확인이 가속화될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Kreiss and Franke(192) and Allen and Datta(1999) proposed bootstrapping the M-estimators in ARMA models. In this paper, we introduce the robust estimating function and investigate the bootstrap approximations of the M-estimators which are solutions of the estimating equations in TAR models. A number of simulation results are presented to estimate the sampling distribution of the M-estimators, and asymptotic validity of the bootstrap for the M-estimators is established.

Objective : This study was produced to examine the effects of moxibustion that had been played important role to traditional oriental medical treatment on disease. Recently, it was reported that moxi-tar which is generated in the process of moxibustion as burning combustibles decreased NO and iNOS generation in C6-glioma and RAW 264.7 cells in our lab. Methods : C6-glioma cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 with FBS 10% in CO2 incubator. To study the protective effects of moxi-tar, we observed cell viability, DPPH activity, SOD activity, catalase activity and cell morphology after injury with $H_2O_2$. Results and Conclusions : Moxi-tar increased cell viability about twice as much as that of being injury by $H_2O_2$(moxi-tar $40{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $H_2O_2$ $500{\mu}M$). And the results of free radical scavenger activity($80{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ : $78.91{\pm}4.4%$), SOD activity and catalase activity($80{\mu}g/m{\ell}$ : 21.6unit/mg protein) were increased by moxi-tar as dose-dependent manner. So we concluded that the effects of moxibustion which is played important role in Oriental medicine, might be free radical scavenger effects induced by moxi-tar. Conclusion : These results indicate that tBHP induces apoptosis through a lipid peroxidation-dependent mechanism and JS exerts the protective effect against the apoptosis by preventing peroxidation of membrane lipids.

Objective : This study was produced to examine the effects of moxibustion that had been played important role to traditional oriental medical treatment on disease. Recently, it was reported that moxi-tar which is generated in the process of moxibustion as burning combustibles decreased NO and iNOS generation in $C_6-glioma$ and RAW 264.7 cells in our lab. The purpose of this research was to investigate the protect reaction on cell injury induced by the $H_2O_2$ in $C_6-glioma$ cells. Methods : $C_6-glioma$ cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 with FBS 10% in $CO_2$ incubator. To study the protective effects of moxi-tar, we observed cell viability, DPPH activity, SOD activity, catalase activity and cell morphology after injury with $H_2O_2$. Results : Moxi-tar increased cell viability about twice as much as that of being injury by $H_2O_2$(moxi-tar $40\;{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $H_2O_2\;500\;{\mu}\;M$). And the results of free radical scavenger activity ($80\;{\mu}g/\;m{\ell}\;:\;78.91\;{\pm}\; 4.4%$), SOD activity and catalase activity ($80\;{\mu}g/\;m{\ell}$: 21.6 unit/ mg protein) were increased by moxi- tar as dose-dependent manner. Conclusion: we concluded that the effects of moxibustion which is played important role in Oriental medicine, might be free radical scavenger effects induced by moxi-tar.

A simple and efficient analytical method for the simultaneous determination of seven tar color additives was developed using ion pair high performance liquid chromatography. The conditions for HPLC analysis were as follows: column, ${\mu}$-Bondapak C18 (10 ${\mu}m$, 300 ${\times}$ 3.9 mm i.d.); gradient mobile phase, 0.025 mol/L ammonium acetate (containing 0.01 mol/L tetrabutylammonium bromide)-acetonitrile-methanol (65:25:10) as a mobile for fraction A and 0.025 mol/L ammonium acetate (containing 0.01 mol/L tetrabutylammonium bromide)-acetonitrilemethanol (40:50:10) as a mobile for fraction B; flow rate, 1.0 mL/ min; detection wavelength, 254/520/620 nm. We could attain to the detection limits as 0.01~0.05 ${\mu}$g/mL (254 nm) and 0.005~0.01 ${\mu}$g/mL (520 nm) for six red tar color additives, and 0.05 ${\mu}$g/mL (254 nm) and 0.002 ${\mu}$g/mL (620 nm) for Fast green FCF. This analytical method was applicable to determine the tar color additives contained in several commercial cold syrups.

Trace metal ions such as $Cd^{2+}$, $Ni^{2+}$, and $Zn^{2+}$ in a highly saline sample were subjected to on-line complexation with 4-(2-thiazolylazo) resorcinol (TAR) dissolved in a background electrolyte (BGE) under transient isotachophoresis (TITP) conditions. A long plug of the saline sample, containing the trace metal ions but devoid of TAR, was injected into a coated capillary filled with a BGE composed of 150 mM 2-(cyclohexylamino) ethanesulfonic acid (CHES) and 110 mM triethylamine (TEA) at pH 9.7. Since the electrophoretic mobility of TAR fell between the mobilities of the anionic leading electrolyte ($Cl^-$ in the sample) and the anionic terminating background electrolyte ($CHES^-$), a highly concentrated zone of TAR from the BGE was formed at the rear of the sample matrix and then the metal cations toward the cathode were swept by isotachophoretically assisted on-line complexation (IAOC) between the metal ions and the isotachophoretically stacked TAR. As a result, anionic metal-TAR complexes were formed efficiently, which satisfy the TITP conditions between $Cl^-$ and $CHES^-$. The enrichment factors of metal ions including $Cd^{2+}$ were up to 780-fold compared to a conventional CZE mode using absorbance detection. The detection limits were 17 nM, 15 nM, and 27 nM for $Ni^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, and $Cd^{2+}$ in a 250 mM NaCl matrix, respectively. Our method was successfully applied to the analysis of urine samples without desalting.

Pyrolysis/gasification technology utilizes an energy conversion technique from various waste resources, such as biomass, solid waste, sewage sludge, and etc. to generating a syngas (synthesis gas). However, one of the major problems for the pyrolysis gasification is the presence of tar in the product gas. The tar produced might cause damages and operating problems on the facility. In this study, a gliding arc plasma reformer was developed to solve the previously acknowledged issues. An experiment was conducted using surrogate benzene and naphthalene, which are generated during the pyrolysis and/or gasification, as the representative tar substance. To identify the characteristics of the influential parameters of tar decomposition, tests were performed on the steam feed amount (steam/carbon ratio), input discharge power (specific energy input, SEI), total feed gas amount and the input tar concentration. In benzene, the optimal operating conditions of the gliding arc plasma 2 in steam to carbon (S/C) ratio, 0.98 $kWh/m^3$ in SEI, 14 L/min in total gas feed rate and 3.6% in benzene concentration. In naphthalene, 2.5 in S/C ratio, 1 $kWh/m^3$ in SEI, 18.4 L/min in total gas feed rate and 1% in naphthalene concentration. The benzene decomposition efficiency was 95%, and the energy efficiency was 120 g/kWh. The naphthalene decomposition efficiency was 79%, and the energy yield was 68 g/kWh.

Pitch synthesis reaction was studied based on the effect for chemical composition of feedstock. Feedstock was selected as pyrolyzed fuel oil (PFO) and coal-tar (CT), which are by-products in petroleum and steel industry. Pitch was prepared at $420^{\circ}C$ for 180 minutes on atmospheric pressure by thermal treatment. Thermal stability and softening point (SP) of the prepared pitches were investigated and their molecular weight distribution was analyzed by MALDI-TOF. PFO has various aliphatic compounds and coal-tar has high aromaticity with 3 wt% of primary quinoline insolubles. The thermal property of PFO was enhanced with polymerization reaction during the thermal treatment with increased molecular weight range. But CT was inferior to PFO because of side reaction by hetero elements. CTP was appeared molecular weight by 0~200 m/z.

A characteristics of microwave drying-gasification was analyzed for converting a dewatered sewage sludge generated a wastewater treatment plant. Gas (60%) was the largest component of the product of microwave gasification, followed by sludge char (33%) and tar (2%). The main components of the producer gas were hydrogen (33%) and carbon monoxide (40%), and there was some methane and hydrocarbons ($C_2H_4$, $C_2H_6$, $C_3H_8$). Larger nitrogen and smaller oxygen amounts were generated. Gravimetric tar generated $414g/m^3$. This means a total tar which is a heavy hydrocarbons from the volatile organic substance in the sewage sludge. Selected light tars were benzene, anthracene, naphthalene, pyrene, showing lower concentrations as 2.62, 0.37, 0.49, $0.28g/m^3$, respectively. Sludge char has larger meso pores which is a mean pore size of $50.85{\AA}$ and has high adsorptivity. An amount of adsorption was $228.71cm^3/g$, showing higher quantity than acommercial adsorbers. This indicates that the gas obtained from the microwave gasification of wet sewage sludge can be used as fuel, but the heavy tar in the gas must be treated. Sludge char can be used as a tar reduction adsorbent in the process, and then burns as a solid fuel.
