본 연구에서는 복합막의 제조공법으로 가장 광범위하게 쓰이는 계면중합법을 이용하여 나노복합막을 제조하였다. Monomer의 농도 및 조성, curing 조건, 후처리 조건과 같은 복합막 제조조건과, 운전압력, 공급액의 농도와 같은 운전인자에 의한 막성능 변화를 조사하였고, 계면중합 과정중에 첨가제를 사용하여 막의 유효면적을 확대하여 투과유속을 증가시키고자 하였다. Monomer의 농도가 증가함에 따라 배제능은 일정하였지만 투과유속이 감소하였고, curing 온도가 증가함에 따라서는 오히려 안정적인 박막층의 형성이 저해되어서 배제능과 투과유속이 모두 감소하였고, curing 시간에 따른 막성능의 변화는 나타나지 않았다. Test solution의 농도가 올라감에 따라서 투과유속과 배제능 모두 감소하였으며, 운전압력이 증가함에 따라서는 배제능과 투과유속 모두 향상하는 경향을 보였다. 계면중합과정중에 사용하는 아민단량체(amine monomer) 중 방향족 다이아민(aromatic amine)인 MPD의 함량을 높임에 따라서 배제능은 증가하였지만 투과유속은 현저하게 떨어졌다. 첨가제의 농도에 따른 표면 거칠기 증가 경향은 MPD가 포함된 amine 조성일 때가 더 높았지만 투과유속은 piperazine만 단독으로 사용하였을 때보다 떨어졌다.

Rejection characteristics of heavy metals by nanofiltration membranes were investigated. Nanofiltration membranes rejected heavy metals much better than chloride, sulfate and TOC, of which concentration in synthetic wastewater was higher than that of heavy metals. To consider rejection characteristics of various metals by nanofiltration membranes, separation coefficient, which is the ratio of the metal permeation rate to the chloride ion or TOC permeation rate, was introduced. In spite of different materials and different nominal salt rejection of nanofiltration membrane used, the separation coefficients of metals were nearly the same. In particular, the separation coefficient of arsenic against chloride ion and TOC was larger than any other separation coefficient of heavy metals. These phenomena were observed in the relationship between the molar conductivity and the separation coefficient for heavy metals.

The rejection properties and flux rates of silica nanoparticles in ultrafiltration membranes has been investigated. Cross-flow permeation experiments were conducted using polycarbonate track-etch flat membranes with pore sizes of 30 and 50 nm, and a silica nanoparticle solute with particle sizes of 5 and 18 nm with narrow size distributions. The fluxes and rejection factors were investigated at various particle concentrations, cross-flow velocities, pH, and ionic strengths of solution. Even though the size of the silica nanoparticles was much smaller than that of the membrane pores, the observed rejection rates were very high compared with those for a similar-sized polymer (dextran). The observed rejection rate decreased with increasing ionic strength, which implies that the transport mechanism of the silica nanoparticles is significantly influenced by electrostatic repulsion between particles and membranes.

In order to investigate the significance of "salting-out" and "pore swelling" effects on the nanofiltration of neutral solutes, rejection properties of two NF ceramic and polymeric membranes were studied with single polyethyleneglycol (PEG) solution and mixed PEG/inorganic electrolyte solutions. For both membranes, the rejection rate of PEG was found to decrease significantly in the presence of ions. In the case of the ceramic membrane (rigid pores), this phenomenon was imputed to the sole partial dehydration of PEG molecules induced by the surrounding ions. This assumption was confirmed by the lowering of the PEG rejection rates which followed the Hofmeister series. Experimental data were used to compute the resulting decrease in the Stokes radius of PEG molecules in the presence of the various salts. Concerning the polymeric membrane, the decrease in the rejection rate was found to be systematically higher than for the ceramic membrane. The additional decrease was then ascribed to the swelling of the pores. The experimental data of rejection rates were then used to compute the variation in the mean pore radius in the presence of the various salts. The pore swelling phenomenon due to accumulation of counterions inside pores was supported by electrokinetic charge density measurements.

계면중합법에 의한 막 제조시 여러 제조변수의 영향을 평가하기 위한 실험을 행하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 반응물인 MPD(m-phenylene diamine)농도가 증가할수록 배제율은 증가하나 투과유속은 감소하였다. MPD의 경우에 함침시간이 증가할수록 배제율은 증가하나 투과유속은 감소하였다. TMC(trimesoyl chloride)경우에는 함침시간이 증가할 때 투과유속은 감소한 반면 배제율은 증가한 이후 감소하였다. 열처리 온도가 상승함에 따라 투과유속은 증가하나 배제율은 증가한 이후 감소하였다. 첨가제인 NaOH는 중합시 발생하는 염산의 양이 적어 미량이 중화에 필요하였으며, 그 양이 증가할수록 배제율과 누과유속은 증가한 이후 감소하여\ulcorner. 후처리는 ethanol, isoprophlalcohol, $5~7^{\circ}C$의 물로 치환하여 배제율과 투과유속에서 상승을 가져왔으며, $5~7^{\circ}C$ 물의 경우에는 후처리 시간에 따라 극대값을 가짐을 알 수 있었다.

In bird species that suffer brood parasitism, the question about which sex is responsible for egg rejection has important implications for determining the coevolutionary relationship between brood parasites and their hosts. In order to determine which sex rejects a parasitic egg in vinous-throated parrotbills (Paradoxornis webbianus) which have egg color dimorphism, we conducted model egg experiments and video-recorded the behavior of the focal pair. Both sexes showed rejection behavior to the parasitic eggs. It indicates that the vinous-throated parrotbill may have a high rejection rate and faster spread of any rejection alleles through out populations. However, further studies are still needed to confirm the egg recognition mechanism in this species, which will expand our knowledge of the evolutionary relationship between host and parasite.

Since the initial International Society of Heart Lung Transplantation registry was published in 1982, the number of pediatric heart transplantations has increased markedly, reaching a steady state of 500-550 transplantation annually and occupying up to 10% of total heart transplantations. Heart transplantation is considered an established therapeutic option for patients with end-stage heart disease. The long-term outcomes of pediatric heart transplantations were comparable to those of adults. Issues affecting long-term outcomes include acute cellular rejection, antibody-mediated rejection, cardiac allograft vasculopathy, infection, prolonged renal dysfunction, and malignancies such as posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder. This article focuses on medical issues before pediatric heart transplantation, according to the Korean Network of Organ Sharing registry and as well as major problems such as graft rejection and cardiac allograft vasculopathy. To reduce graft failure rate and improve long-term outcomes, meticulous monitoring for rejection and medication compliance are also important, especially in adolescents.

Rotating machine is used extensively and plays important roles in the industrial field. Therefore when rotating machine get out of order, it is necessary to know reasons then deal with the troubles immediately. So many studies far diagnosis of rotating machine are being done. However by this time most of study has an interest in gaining a high recognition But without considering error $rate^{(1)(2)(3)}$ , it is not desirable enough to apply h the actual application system. If the manager of system receives the result misjudging the condition of rotating machine and takes measures, we would lose heavily. So in order to play the creditable diagnosis, we must consider error rate. T h ~ t is. it must be able to reject the result of misjudgment. This study uses nearest neighbor classifier for diagnosis of rotating $machine^{(4)(8)}$ And the Smith's rejection $method^{(1)}$ used to recognize handwritten charter is done. Consequently creditable diagnosis of rotating machine is proposed.

원전 1차 계통내에 실리카는 알카리 토금속(Ca, Mg, Al 등)과 결합하여 원전 연료 피복재에 열전달을 방해하는 규석층(Zeolite)를 형성한다. 이렇게 형성된 규석층은 원전 피복재 손상의 원인이 된다. 이러한 원전 1차 계통내 실리카의 문제점들은 EPRI 보고서 등에 그 문제점이 꾸준히 제기되어 왔으며 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위하여 막분리 공정을 이용하고자 하였다. 먼저 실험실 규모의 실험을 통해 NF막의 실리카 제거율이 약 $60\;{\sim}\;70\%$, Boron 제거율이 약 $10\;{\sim}\;20\%$로 그 적용 가능성을 확인하였으며, FilmTec과 Osmonics 사 NF막 제품 4종에 대하여 현장 실험을 수행하였다. 현장 사용후연료 저장 붕산수 400L를 시료로 한 실험에서 운전압력 $10kg_{f}/cm^2$에서 FilmTec 사의 NF90-2540이 실리카 제거율이 약 $98\%$, Boron 제거율이 약 $43\%$로 확인되었으며 또한 NF270-2540이 실리카 제거율이 약 $38\%$, Boron 제거율이 약 $3.5\%$로 확인되었다. 이를 바탕으로 장기운전 특성 실험 등의 추가적인 연구를 통해 최적의 실리카 제거를 위한 막 분리공정을 설계 할 예정이다.

Purpose: To determine the short (1 year of transplant) and long-term (1-5 years of transplantation) risk factors affecting the graft and patient survival in kidney transplantation recipients. Methods: Records of 149 patients who received kidney transplantation in 1996 from Asan Medical Center were followed for 5 years retrospectively. Results: All patients initiated triple immunosuppressive therapy with cyclosporine, prednisone and azathioprine. One, two, three, four, five year patient and graft survival rates were 98.7%, 98.0%, 98.0%, 97.3%, 97.3%, and 96.6%, 95.2%, 94.6%, 92.5%, 91.8%, respectively. There were 30 cases of acute rejection (AR) and 6 cases of chronic rejection (CR) within $2.1{\pm}3.2$ months and $42.1{\pm}13.2$ months of transplantation, respectively. The risk factors for AR were donor's age older than 30 years (p=0.02) and cardiovascular disease (p=0.05). The risk factors for CR were AR (p=0.0169) and episode of complications (p=0.0330). Increasing period of dialysis (p=0.0473), episodes of AR (p<0.0001) and complication (p=0.0317) were significant factors for graft loss. Seven grafts were lost from noncompliance during 1-5 year period. The most com- mon cause of the graft loss for both periods was the graft rejection. The graft survival rate was significantly lower in patients with than without rejection episodes (77.4% vs. 90.0%, p=0.002). Conclusions: Survival rate of the graft with rejection was significantly lower. The risk factors affecting AR were donor's age older than 30years and CVD. AR and episode of complications within 1year were the risk factors for CR and graft loss.
