Luteinizing Hormone Releasing Hormone (LHRH) is composed of 10 amino acids, and is best known as a neurotransmitter. Because of the 80% homology in animals, much more concerns have focused on the substances that have similar functions or can control LHRH. Ni, Cu-LHRH complexes were synthesized. The degree of complexation was monitored by $^1H,\;^{13}C$-NMR chemical shifts, and final products were identified by ESI-Mass spectrum. Solution-state structure determination of Ni-LHRH complex was accomplished by using NMR results and NMR-based distance geometry (DG). Interproton distances from nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) were utilized for the molecular structure determination. Results were compared with previous structures obtained from energy minimization and other spectroscopic methods. Structure obtained in this study has a cyclic conformation which is similar to that of energy minimized, and exhibits a specific a-helical turn with residue numbers (2~7) out of 10 amino acids. Comparison of chemical shifts and EPR studies of Ni, Cu-LHRH complexes exhibit that Ni-LHRH complex has same binding sites with the 4-coordination mode as in Zn-LHRH complex.

선박이나 해양구조물(海洋構造物)로부터의 폐기물(廢棄物)의 해양투기를 규제하는 런던협약(協約) 당사국들은 지난 2004년 동 협약 당사국회의에서 선박으로부터 화물관련폐기물의 배출을 허용하는 국제규범이 국가별로 다양하게 해석되고 있어서 이로 인해 해양환경이 손상 받을 가능성에 주목하였다. 런던협약 당사국회의는 런던협약과 선박으로부터의 폐기물의 배출을 관장하는 MARPOL 73/78 (부속서 V)의 두 국제규범간의 "폐기물의 해양배출 및 투기에 관한 사안" 관할범위를 명확하게 구분하기 위해 MARPOL 73/78을 관장하는 국제해사기구의 해양환경위원회와 공동 작업반을 구성하였다. 화물(貨物)관련폐기물의 해양처분에 관한 규제는 국가별로 달라서, 일부 국가들은 해양처분을 허용하지 않고 대신 항만폐기물수용시설에 배출하도록 하고 있으나 일부 국가들은 해양에 배출할 수 있도록 허용하고 있다. 국제적으로는 런던협약 등 다자간환경협정(多者間環境協定)들은 대안이 있는 경우에는 환경규제를 강화하는 경향을 보이고 있다. 본 소고는 이러한 국제적인 논의 동향에 대처하고 우리나라 해양환경보전을 위하여 화물관련폐기물 중 화물잔류물을 대상으로 먼저 선박으로부터의 폐기물의 배출을 규율하는 법제에 대해 고찰하고, 화물관련폐기물의 해양처분으로 인한 해양환경영향을 구체적으로 검토하기 위하여 화물잔류물 중 산적화물(散積貨物)인 석탄의 선창 잔류물의 해양처분에 대한 환경영향을 사례로서 분석하였다. 화물잔류물의 해양투입처분으로 인한 해양환경영향은 화물잔류물의 총량과 동 화물잔류물에 함유된 유해물질의 종류와 함량에 의하여 결정되게 된다. 해양환경보전을 위하여서는 화물잔류물을 해양에 투입처분하지 않는 것이 최상의 관리 방안이다. 따라서 화물잔류물의 해양처분 수요는 항만폐기물수용시설의 가용성에 반비례하게 된다. 우리나라도 항만폐기물수용시설을 추가적으로 확충하여 선박기인 운영으로 인한 해양환경오염을 감축하여 나가야 할 것이다.

HBr을 이용한 트렌치 식각시 식각 방지막의 형성과 이들이 결함 생성 및 분포에 미치는 영향을 고분해능 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 연구하였다. $O_2$ 및 다른 첨가 가스로 $SiO_xF_y$, $SiO_xBr_y$ 등의 식각 방지막을 표면에 형성시켜 벽면 undercut을 방지하고 표면의 거칠기를 감소할 수 있었으며, 이후의 트렌치 채움 공정에서 void 가 없는 잘 채원진 구조를 얻을 수 있었다. 형성된 식각 방지막은 격자 결함의 생성 및 이들의 분포에 영향을 미쳤다. 대부분의 식각 유도 결함들은 트렌치 바닥의 가장자리에서 $10\AA$ 이내의 깊이로 분포하였으며, 잔류막의 두께에 의존하였다. 두꺼운 잔류막층 아래로는 결함들이 거의 사라졌으며, 결함층의 깊이와 잔류막 두께는 대체로 반비례하는 것을 나타났다. 기판 내에 존재하는 결정학적인 결함들은 식각종의 입사각이나 에너지에 의존하는 반면에,식각된 표면에서 관찰되는 결함들은 트렌치 식각동안 형성되는 이러한 잔류막의 두께에 크게 의존하는 것으로 나타났다.

Objective: This study was to examine in vivo digestibility, nitrogen balance and ruminal fermentation of tamarind (Tamarind indica) kernel powder extract residue (TKPER) compared to soybean products and by-products in wethers. Methods: Four wethers with initial body weight (BW) of $51.6{\pm}5.5kg$ were assigned in a $4{\times}4$ Latin square design to investigate nutritional characteristics of TKPER, dry heat soybean (SB), dry soybean curd residue (SBCR) and soybean meal (SBM) feeding with ryegrass straw (R) at a ratio of 1:1 at 2% of BW in dry matter (DM) on a daily basis. Results: The digestibility of DM, crude protein, and ether extract (EE) of TKPER-R diet were 57.0%, 87.0%, and 86.0%, respectively. Higher non-fiber carbohydrates digestibility was observed in TKPER-R diet (83.2%) than in SB-R diet (73.9%, p<0.05). Wethers fed the TKPER-R diet had lower retention of nitrogen (N) and ruminal ammonia nitrogen ($NH_3-N$) contents at 4 h after feeding than those fed the SBM-R diet (p<0.05), which had values similar to the SB-R or SBCR-R diet. The TKPER feeding had higher propionate (C3) and lower butyrate content, as well as lower acetate to propionate ratio (C2:C3) in rumen fluid than SBM feeding at 4 h after feeding (p<0.05). Conclusion: TKPER did not bring any side effect to the wethers although it was lack of fiber, and could be used as a high protein and energy ingredient in concentrate with appropriate roughage to meet the fiber requirement for ruminants.

In this paper, a simple method to measure the residual stress in microstructure is presented. In order to find the residual stress in micro-machined beam, the first natural frequency of the beam that has the residual stress inside is analyzed using Rayleigh's energy method. Micro gold electroplated structure is fabricated by surface micro-machining process including electroplating. The made structure is an approximate shape of clamped-clamped beam and its 1 st natural frequency is measured by resonance method. For the better estimation of the residual stress, an equivalent length of micro-fabricated beam to ideal beam is calculated by FEM. The residual stress was estimated from the equivalent length and the measured natural frequency. It was found that a tensile stress was residue in the micro beam structure.

In this study, we present the salt repellent behavior of superhydrophobic filtration membrane. Bio-fouling or mineral-fouling is the main factor of decreasing the performance of filtration membrane. The superhydrophobic modification of filtration membrane using PECVD (Plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) is introduced. The oxygen plasma was introduced for developing nano hairy structures and subsequent HMDSO (Hexamethyldisiloxane) coating was used for enhancing low surface energy. Saline water evaporation test was carried out to evaluate the difference of contamination of salt on superhydrophobic and moderately hydrophobic filtration membrane. EDS and EPMA were used for visualizing the residue of salt crystal.

A method for evaluating bulk sensitive structural characteristics of unpurified, as-purified, and acid treated single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) was described in the present study. The optical spectra of SWNT solutions were well resolved after prolonged sonication and they were correlated to the diameter and the distribution of nanotubes. The acid-treated SWNTs were similar to as-purified SWNTs in terms of catalyst residue, radial breathing mode (RBM) in the Raman spectra, and the first band gap energy of semiconducting tubes in the optical spectra. The solution phase optical spectra were more sensitive to changes in the small diameter and metallic tubes after the acid treatment than were the RBM spectra.

Flame-retardant cotton fabrics were prepared by UV curing of photocurable aqueous formulations of phosphorous-containing methacrylate monomers and 2-hydroxy-2-methyl-1-phenyl-1-propanone as flame retardants and a photoinitiator respectively, which is an environmentally friendly and energy-saving process. The characterization of the UV-coated cotton fabric was made by ATR, TGA and limited oxygen index measurement. UV cured coating onto cotton fabrics reduced the first thermal decomposition temperature and mass loss as well as increase in the amount of char residue compared with the untreated cotton fabric presumably due to modified thermal decomposition process. The LOI values up to 28.5 and 27.2 were obtained by the UV curing of MMEP and TMEP respectively. The treatment was durable to five laundering cycles, which was more prominent in the case of trifunctional TMEP treatment.

In the present study, collisionally-activated dissociation (CAD) experiments were performed under low energy collision conditions in six peptides containing a disulfide bond. Fragments produced as a result of the cleavage of a disulfide bond were obtained after CAD in four peptides (bactenecin, TGF-$\alpha$, cortistantin, and linearly linked peptide, Scheme 1) with basic amino acid residues. In contrast, the CAD analysis of two peptides with no basic residue (oxytocin and tocinoic acid) rarely produced fragments indicative of cleavage of a disulfide bond. These results are consistent with the mobile proton model suggested by the McLuckey and O'air groups (ref. 22 and 23); nonmobile protons sequestered at basic amino acid residues appear to promote the cleavage of disulfide bonds.

In the course of operating the accommodative and detoxifying mechanism against cadmium, its physio-biochemical changes were observed in Klebsiella aerogenes ATCC 10031. Changes of enzyme activity concerned phosphate metabolism, changes of phospholipid composition and in view of energy metabolism the changes of the nucleotide pool were examined. Activities of both alkaline and acid phosphatase were derepressed 4-10 folds under cadmium added cultures. Moreover, production of phospholipid such as lysophosphatidyl choline (LPC), phosphatidyl serine (PS) and phosphatidyl ethanolamone (PE) was increased and uridylate nucleotide pool was increased under Cd-surplus culture. These results i.e. overproduction of phosphatase catalyzing phosphate residue, increase of the production of PE and PS which have a close affinity with cadmium, and indrease of uridylate nucleotide pool used as a carrier of polysaccharide synthesis like bacterial capsule exhibited cellular responses for active defence against Cd-pressure. It was postulated that these phenomena should play another assistant roles in Cd-detoxifing mechanism.
