약물전달 시스템 중의 하나인 삼투압정의 단점을 보완하기 위해 많은 장점을 가지는 유동층 코팅 기술을 이용하여 내부의 삼투염의 양과 반투막 내의 결합제의 종류가 다른 삼투압을 이용하는 과립을 제조하였다. 얻어진 과립은 코팅 단계에 따라 과립의 형태가 상이하였으며, 약물층에 포함된 삼투염의 양이 많을수록 많은 양의 약물을 방출하였다. 이는 과립의 내부와 외부의 삼투압 차이가 커져서 약물을 방출시키는 추진력이 증가하였기 때문으로 사료된다. 또한 반투막의 결합제 종류에 따른 약물의 방출은 결합제의 물에 대한 용해도에 따라 달라짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 반투막 내의 다공의 형성은 SEM과 DSC를 이용하여 확인하였으며, 물에 대한 용해도가 큰 결합제를 사용한 반투막이 더 많은 양의 약물을 방출함을 확인하였다. 이 실험을 통해 삼투압을 이용한 과립의 약물방출은 과립 내부와 외부의 삼투압 차이와 반투막의 다공도에 의해 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다.

나노여과공정에서 폭발 오염물질인 TNT(2, 4, 6-Trinitrotoluene), RDX(Hexahydro-1, 3, 5-trinitro-1, 3, 5-triazine) 및 HMX(1, 3, 5, 7-Tetranitro-1, 3, 5, 7-tetrazocane) 화약류의 잔류에 용존유기물의 오염과 무기물의 스케일링에 의한 케익층 형성 및 농도분극의 영향성을 분석하였다. 지표수 조건의 휴믹산 농도에 의한 나노여과공정에서는 용존유기물에 의한 나노여과막 오염이 발생되어도 플럭스의 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 휴믹산과 무기 스케일링이 동시에 발생되었을 경우에는 나노여과공정에서 플럭스의 감소가 큰 것으로 나타났다. 휴믹산과 $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$을 혼합하였을 때 플럭스 투과량이 42% 감소하였고 휴믹산만 첨가하였을 경우에 플럭스 투과량은 8% 감소한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 NF 막의 $Ca_3(PO_4)_2$스켈턴트 결정과 용존유기물이 칼슘($Ca^{2+}$)이온의 상호작용에 의해 막 표면에 증강된 케익층을 형성하여 NF 막의 플럭스를 감소시키는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 막의 크기배제에 의한 선택성을 기반으로 하여 폭발물의 나노여과막에 의한 잔류량을 조사할 경우 HMX(296.15, 83%) ${\gg}$ RDX(222.12, 49%) ≋ TNT(227.13, 32%)로 나타났다. 막 오염과 스케일링은 케익층의 형성으로 막 표면에서 증대된 농도 분극효과를 나타낼 수 있으나, 무기 스케일링 형성과 휴믹산에 의한 화약류의 잔류 영향성은 순수한 DI 및 NaCl 피드용액의 여과공정 결과와 크게 다르지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 전량여과방식(Dead-end Flow)의 나노여과공정에서 화약류의 잔류 영향성은 임계크기에 의한 선택적 배제성이 케익층 형성 및 농도분극에 의한 잔류 영향성보다 크다는 것을 보여준다.

To improve the filtration efficiency of porous materials used in filters, an extensive specific surface area is required to serve as a site for adsorption of impurities. In this paper, a method for creating a hybridized porous alloy using a powder metallurgical technique to build macropores in an Al-4 wt.% Cu alloy and subsequent surface modification for a microporous surface with a considerably increased specific surface area is suggested. The macropore structure was controlled by granulation, compacting pressure, and sintering; the micropore structure was obtained by a surface modification using a dilute NaOH solution. The specific surface area of surface-modified specimen increased about 10 times compare to as-sintered specimen that comprised of the macropore structure. Also, the surface-modified specimens showed a remarkable increase in micropores larger than 10 nm. Such a hybridized porous structure has potential for application in water and air purification filters, as well as membrane pre-treatment and catalysis.

Two-dimensionally cross-linked ultrathin films of poly(maleic acid-alt-methyl vinyl ether) (MA-MVE) and poly(allylamine) (PAA) were produced by using sodium dioctadecyl sulfate (2C18S) as the monolayer template for Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) depositio n. The template molecules were subsequently removed by thermal treatment followed by extraction. The polyion-complexed monolayers of three components, i.e., template 2C18S, co-spread PAA, and subphase MA-MVE, were formed at the air-water interface. Their monolayer properties were studied by the surface pressure-area isotherm. The monolayers were transferred on solid substrates as Y type. The polyion-complexed LB films and the resulting network films were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The cross-linking to form a polymer network was achieved by amide or imide formation through heat treatment under a vacuum. SEM observation of the film on a porous fluorocarbon membrane filter (pore diameter 0.1 ㎛) showed covering of the pores by four layers in the polyion complex state. Extraction by chloroform followed by heat treatment produced hole defects in the film.

Stable polyion-complexed polymeric monolayers were prepared by spreading perfluoroalkyl monomaleate copolymers, $C_2F_8MA-VE_2$ and $C_2F_8MA-VE_3$, on a aqueous poly(allylamine) subphase. The monolayer properties have been studied by the surface pressure-area (${\pi}$-A) isotherms. The $C_2F_8MA-VE_3$ containing longer oligoethyleneglycol pendant showed more expanded monolayer phase than the $C_2F_8MA-VE_2$. The polyion-complexed monolayers were transferable on various substrates, and the resulting Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Two-dimensional crosslinking to form a polymer network was achieved by amide formation through heat treatment under vacuum with concurrent removal of perfluoroalkyl tails. SEM observation of this film on a porous membrane filter showed that the four layer film was sufficiently stable to cover the filter pore size of 0.1 ${\mu}$m. The $C_2F_8MA-VE_3$ revealed better covering capability than the $C_2F_8MA-VE_2$. Immersion of this film in water or in benzene did not cause any change in its appearance and in Fl-IR spectra.

CA(1-8)-ME(1-12) [CA-ME], composed of cecropin A(1-8) and melittin(1-12), is a synthetic antimicrobial peptide having potent antibacterial and antitumor activities with minimal hemolytic activity. In order to investigate the effects of the flexible hinge sequence, Gly-Ile-Gly, of CA-ME on antibiotic activity, CA-ME and three analogues, CA-ME1, CA-ME2, and CA-ME3, were synthesized. The Gly-Ile-Gly sequence of Ca-ME was deleted in CA-ME1 and replaced with Pro and Gly-Pro-Gly in CA-ME2 and CA-ME3, respectively. CA-ME1 and CA-ME3 showed a significant decrease in antitumor activity and phospholipid vesicle-disrupting ability. However, CA-ME2 showed similar antitumor and vesicle-disrupting activities, as compared with CA-ME. These results suggest that the flexibility or ${\beta}$-turn induced by Gly-Ile-Gly or Pro in the central part of CA-ME may be important in the electrostatic interaction of the N-terminus cationic ${\alpha}$-helical region with the cell membrane surface and the hydrophobic interaction of the C-terminus amphipathic ${\alpha}$-helical region with the hydrophobic acyl chains in the cell membrane. CA-ME3 exhibited lower antitumor and vesicle-disrupting activities than CA-ME and CA-ME2. This result suggests that the excessive ${\beta}$-turn structure caused by the Gly-Pro-Gly sequence in CA-ME3 seems to interrupt ion channel/pore formation in the lipid bilayer. We concluded that the appropriate flexibility or bilayer. We concluded that the appropriate flexibility or ${\beta}$-turn structure provided by the central hinge is responsible for the effective antibiotic activity of the antimicrobial peptides with the helix-hinge-helix structure.

균일한 밀집구조를 지니는 투명한 폴리설폰 필름이 용매를 사용한 표면처리를 통해 개질되었다. 개질은 고분자 필름을 디메털포름아마이드 용매에 1 sec간 담그고 이를 비용매 욕조에 침지시켜 이루어졌다. 개질 전 투명하였던 필름은 개질 후 횐색을 띠며, 많은 기공이 표면에 형성되었다. 비용매로서 물을 사용하였을 때가 이소프로파놀을 사용하였을 때 보다 표면의 불균일도가 증가하였다. 개질된 필름을 사용하여 방사성핵종으로 오염된 지역으로부터 오염물을 채취하였을 때 일반적으로 사용되는 필터페이퍼를 사용하는 것보다 우수한 채취 효율을 보여주었다. 개질된 필름 중에서는 비용매로 물을 사용한 경우 이소프로파놀을 이용한 필름보다 오염물의 채취 효과가 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 개질된 필름은 고분자 필름의 양쪽 겉표면만을 변화시켜, 필름의 내부는 고유한 밀집도를 유지함으로써, 필터페이퍼 또는 유리섬유를 사용한 오염물 제거 과정에서 나타날 수 있는 매체의 기공을 통한 2차적 오염을 방지하는 효과가 있다.

Macrofore formation in silicon and other semiconductors using electrochemical etching processes has been, in the last years, a subject of great attention of both theory and practice. Its first reason of concern is new areas of macropore silicone applications arising from microelectromechanical systems processing (MEMS), membrane techniques, solar cells, sensors, photonic crystals, and new technologies like a silicon-on-nothing (SON) technology. Its formation mechanism with a rich variety of controllable microstructures and their many potential applications have been studied extensively recently. Porous silicon is formed by anodic etching of crystalline silicon in hydrofluoric acid. During the etching process holes are required to enable the dissolution of the silicon anode. For p-type silicon, holes are the majority charge carriers, therefore porous silicon can be formed under the action of a positive bias on the silicon anode. For n-type silicon, holes to dissolve silicon is supplied by illuminating n-type silicon with above-band-gap light which allows sufficient generation of holes. To make a desired three-dimensional nano- or micro-structures, pre-structuring the masked surface in KOH solution to form a periodic array of etch pits before electrochemical etching. Due to enhanced electric field, the holes are efficiently collected at the pore tips for etching. The depletion of holes in the space charge region prevents silicon dissolution at the sidewalls, enabling anisotropic etching for the trenches. This is correct theoretical explanation for n-type Si etching. However, there are a few experimental repors in p-type silicon, while a number of theoretical models have been worked out to explain experimental dependence observed. To perform ordered macrofore formaion for p-type silicon, various kinds of mask patterns to make initial KOH etch pits were used. In order to understand the roles played by the kinds of etching solution in the formation of pillar arrays, we have undertaken a systematic study of the solvent effects in mixtures of HF, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), iso-propanol, and mixtures of HF with water on the macrofore structure formation on monocrystalline p-type silicon with a resistivity varying between 10 ~ 0.01 $\Omega$ cm. The etching solution including the iso-propanol produced a best three dimensional pillar structures. The experimental results are discussed on the base of Lehmann's comprehensive model based on SCR width.

Protein O-GlcNAcylation, dictated by cellular UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNAc) levels, plays a crucial role in posttranslational modifications. The enzyme GlcNAc kinase (NAGK, E.C. 2.7.1.59) catalyzes the formation of GlcNAc-6-phosphate, which is a major substrate for the biosynthesis of UDP-GlcNAc. Recent studies have revealed the expression of NAGK in different types of cells especially in neuronal dendrites. Here, by immunocytochemistry (ICC) and immunonucleochemistry (INC) of cultured rat hippocampal neurons, HEK293T and GT1-7 cells, we have showed that NAGK immuno-reactive punctae being present in the nucleoplasm colocalized with small nuclear ribonucleoprotein-associated protein N (snRNPN) and p54NRB, which are speckle and paraspeckle markers, respectively. Furthermore, NAGK IR cluster was also found to be colocalized with GTF2H5 (general transcription factor IIH, polypeptide 5) immuno reactive punctae. In addition, relative localization to the ring of nuclear lamin matrix and to GlcNAc, which is highly enriched in nuclear pore complexes, showed that NAGK surrounds the nucleus at the cytoplasmic face of the nuclear outer membrane. By in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) we confirmed the colocalization of NAGK with snRNPN in the nucleus and in dendrites, while we also verified the interactions of NAGK with p54NRB, and with GTF2H5 in the nucleus. These associations between NAGK with speckle, paraspeckle and general transcription factor suggest its regulatory roles in gene expression.
