This study was undertaken to determine whether the addition of calcium sulfate to toothash material (Toothash : plaster of paris=2 : 1) would improve its stabilizing property without adversely affecting its osteoconduction. The radiographic and histologic examinations of bone response of this composite material was performed after 1-, 3-, 5-, 8-, and 12-week implantation in calvaria of rats. No sign of extensive inflammatory response was detected. No movement could be observed with this composite material. Creeping substitution was observed in the surgical site. The direct union between toothash and growing bone after 12 weeks of implantation was observed in the defect margin. We could observe this composite implant material is resorbing slowly as time is over.

The oxidation of carbon monoxide by gaseous oxygen in the presence of a powdered $Nd_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_{3-y}$ solid solution as a catalyst has been investigated in the temperature range from 150$^{\circ}$C to 300$^{\circ}$C under various CO and $O_2$ partial pressures. The site of Sr substitution, nonstoichiometry, structure, and microstructure were studied by means of powder X-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. The electrical conductivity of the solid solution has been measured at 300$^{\circ}$C under various CO and $O_2$ partial pressures. The oxidation rates have been correlated with 1.5-and 1.2-order kinetics with and without a $CO_2$ trap, respectively; first-and 0.7 order with respect to CO and 0.5-order to $O_2$. For the above reaction temperature range, the activation energy is in the range from 0.25 to 0.35 eV/mol. From the infrared spectroscopic, conductivity and kinetic data, CO appears essentially to be adsorbed on the lattice oxygens of the catalyst, while $O_2$ adsorbs as ions on the oxygen vacancies formed by Sr substitution. The oxygen vacancy mechanism of the CO oxidation and the main defect of $Nd_{1-x}Sr_xCoO_{3-y}$ solid solution are supported and suggested from the agreement between IR data, conductivities, and kinetic data.

Variation of magnetic properties through Cr substitution for Co in inverse-spinel $CoFe_2O_4$ has been investigated by vibrating-sample magnetometry (VSM) and conversion electron $M\ddot{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy (CEMS). $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples were prepared as thin films by a sol-gel method. The lattice constant of the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ samples was found to remain unchanged, explainable in terms of a reduction of tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$ due to substitution of $Cr^{3+}$ ion into octahedral $Co^{2+}$ site. The existence of the tetrahedral $Fe^{2+}$ ions in $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ was confirmed by CEMS analysis. Room-temperature magnetic hysteresis curves for the $Cr_{x}Co_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ films measured by VSM revealed that the saturation magnetization $M_s$ increases by Cr doping. The $M_s$ is maximized when x = 0.1 and decreases for higher x but is still bigger than that of $CoFe_2O_4$. The increase of $M_s$ can be explained partly by the reduction of the tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ ion to $Fe^{2+}$.

To gain further insight on the relationship between structure and functions of glutathione S-transferase (GST), the three tyrosine 108 mutants, Y108A, Y108F, and Y108W, of human GST P1-1 were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to electrophoretic homogeneity by affinity chromatography on immobilized GSH. The substitution of Tyr 108 with alanine resulted in significant decrease of the GSH-conjugation activity and the GSH peroxidase activity, but approximately 63% increase of steroid isomerase activity toward ${\Delta}^5$–[androstene 3,17-dione. On the other hand, the substitution of Tyr 108 with phenylalanine resulted in decreases of $k_{cat}\;and\;k_{cat}/K_m{^{EPNP}}$ by 2 orders of magnitude, suggesting that Tyr 108 residue of hGSTP1-1 are considered to be important for the catalysis and the binding of the epoxide substrates. The substitution of Tyr 108 with tryptophan resulted in significant decreases of the specific activities toward EPNP, cumene hydroperoxide and ${\Delta}^5$–ndrostene 3,17-dione, but approximately 2-fold increase on the enzyme-catalyzed addition of GSH to DCNB. We conclude from these results that Tyr 108 in hGST P1-1 plays very different roles depending upon the nature of the electrophilic substrates.

Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) based ceramics with superior piezoelectric properties have been extensively used in various domestic and industrial appliances. However, PZT ceramics causing environmental contamination and health problems need to be eventually replaced by any of Pb-free materials. $(Na_{0.53}K_{0.47})(Nb_{1-x}Ta_x)O_3$ (NKNT), one of Pb-free piezoelectric ceramics, has long been known but its properties are not fully understood and developed. In this study, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of Pb-free NKNT ceramics were studied with Ta substitution for B-site at x = 0~0.6. It was found that polymorphic phase transition (PPT) between orthorhombic and tetragonal phases was notably influenced by Ta substitution. The highest piezoelectric coefficient ($d_{33}$) of 284 pC/N was occurred at x = 0.45.

본 연구는 한우 mt DNA D-loop 영역의 염기변이 다형성과 경제형질간의 관련성을 분석하기 위하여 수행하였다. 한우의 mtDNA D-loop 영역에서 단일염기의 치환 의해 총 25개의 polymorphic site가 확인되었다. 그중 주요 Polymorphic site의 염기변이 빈도는 169, 16042, 16093, 16119, 16255 및 16302번째 위치에서 0.891, 0.117, 0.109, 0.182, 0.197 및 0.117로 검출되었다. 169 및 16119번째 위치에서의 염기치환에 의한 MS의 효과는 -1.08(p〈0.05), 1.29(p〈0.01)로 나타났으며, 169 및 16042번째 위치에서의 염기치환에 의한 BF의 효과는 -0.31(p〈0.01)과 0.34(p〈0.01)로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 검출한 한우 mtDNA내 D-loop 영역의 염기서열 변이 빈도 등은 한우집단의 유전적 변이성 추정과 좀 더 다양한 경제형질과의 관련성 분석은 물론 모계유전 양상 분석을 통한 한우의 형성과정과 타 품종과의 계통분류적 상호 관계 등의 분석에 유용하게 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The bacterium Sphingomonas chungbukensis DJ77 produces the extracellular polysaccharide gellan in high yield. Gellan produced by this bacterium is widely used as a gelling agent, and the enzyme UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGP) is thought to play a key role in the gellan biosynthetic pathway. The UGP gene has been successfully cloned and over-expressed in E. coli. The expressed enzyme was purified with a molecular weight of approximately 32 kDa, as determined by a SDS-polyacrylamide gel, but the enzyme appears as ca. 63 kDa on a native gel, suggesting that the enzyme is present in a homodimer. Kinetic analysis of UDP-glucose for UGP indicates $K_m$ = 1.14 mM and $V_{max}$ = 10.09 mM/min/mg at pH 8.0, which was determined to be the optimal pH for UGP catalytic activity. Amino acid sequence alignment against other bacteria suggests that the UGP contains two conserved domains: An activator binding site and a glucose-1-phosphate binding site. Site-directed mutagenesis of Lys194, located within the glucose-1-phosphate binding site, indicates that substitution of the charge-reversible residue Asp for Lys194 dramatically impairs the UGP activity, supporting the hypothesis that Lys194 plays a critical role in the catalysis.

$LaCrO_{3}$를 기본으로 하는 perovskite형 재료인 $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Cr_{1-x}Ni_{x}O_{3}$(0.1 ${\leq}$ x ${\leq}$ 0.5)를 citric acid와 EDTA를 이용한 졸-겔법(sol-gel method)으로 합성하였다. 제조한 촉매의 특성분석은 BET, XRD, SEM, $H_2$-TPR, EA 그리고 TEM을 이용하였고, 프로판 수증기 개질 반응을 통하여 촉매 활성을 평가하였다. Perovskite 산화물의 A-site에는 Sr을 30 ml% 고정치환하고, B-site에 Ni 치환양을 증가시키면서 프로판 수증기 개질 반응 실험을 수행한 결과 Ni 치환양과 S/C의 비(steam to carbon ratio)가 증가할수록 프로판 전환율과 수소 수율이 향상되었다. $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Cr_{0.5}Ni_{0.5}O_{3}$(LSCN-0.5)촉매가 S/C의 비가 1.7이고, $800^{\circ}C$의 반응온도 조건에서 100%의 프로판 전환율과 95.9%의 높은 수소 수율을 나타내어 가장 좋은 촉매 활성을 보였다. 반응 후의 촉매에서는 filamentous cabon형태의 탄소 침적형태가 나타나며, Ni 치환양이 증가할수록 침적되는 탄소의 양이 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.

에탄을 전화반응 및 MTBE (methyl t-butyl ether)분해반응을 통하여 헤테로폴리산 촉매가 지니는 표면 및 내부 산점의 역할과 형성에 대하여 살펴 보았다. 12-텅스토인산에서 에탄올 탈수반응을 수행할 경우 디에틸에테르는 표면산점에서 생성되며 에틸렌은 촉매 내부산점에서 생성된다. 물은 산점을 강화하는 역할을 하지만 유기염기의 경우 내부 산점을 약화시킨다. 금속염의 산점 형성은 결정수의 가수분해 혹은 금속의 부분적 치환에 따른 양성자에 기인하며 수소로 처리할 경우 산점이 재생되었다. 또한 산 특성 제어를 통하여 선택적 산화반응 촉매로서의 헤테로폴리산 설계가 가능하다.
