Retrieval of ocean color information from Multispectral Camera (MSC) on KOMPSAT-2 was investigated to study and characterize small-scale biophysical features in the coastal oceans. Prior to the derivation of such information from space-acquired ocean color imageries, the atmospheric effects largely from path and the air-sea interface should be removed from the total signal recorded at the top of the atmosphere (T$_{TOA}$). In this study, the 'path-extraction' is introduced and demonstrated on the TM and SeaWiFS imageries of highly turbid coastal waters of Korea. The algorithms for retrieval of ocean color information were explored from the remote reflectance (R$_{rs}$) in the visible wavebands of MSC. The determination of coefficient (R$^{2}$) for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was 0.90. Similarly, the R$^{2}$ value for log-transformed data [ N = 500] was found to be 0.93.

The effects of microstructural change on the adhesion strength between Cu/Cr film and polyimide have been studied. Cr films (50 nm thick) and Cu films (500 or 1000 nm thick) were deposited on polyimide by DC magnetron sputtering. During Cu deposition the Ar pressure was 5 or 100 mtorr. The microstructure was observed by SEM and the adhesion was measured by T-peel test. Plastic deformation of peeled metal strips was characterized quantitatively by using XRD technique. The film in which Cu is deposited at 100 mtorr has higher adhesion strength than the film in which Cu is deposited at 5 mtorr. And in the film with same deposition pressure of 100 mtorr, the adhesion strength is increased as the deposited thickness increases from 500 to 1000 nm. The adhesion change of Cu/Cr can be interpreted as the difference in plastic deformation.

Paraelectric lead landthanum titanate(PLT) thin films have been prepared by a reactive dc magnetron sputtering system using a multicomponent metal target. The surface area control of each element on the target markedly facilitates the fabrication of thin films of complex ceramic compounds. A postdeposition heat-treatment was applied to all as-deposited PLT thin films at annealing temperatures up to 75$0^{\circ}C$ for crystalization. The composition of the PLT(28) thin filmannealed at $650^{\circ}C$ was: Pb, 0.73; La, 0.28; Ti, 0.88; O, 2.9. The dielectric constant and dissipation factor of the thin film(200 nm) at low filed measurements (500 Vcm-1) are 1216 and 0.018, respectively. The charge storage density using a typical Sawyer-Tower circuit with a 500 Hz sine wave was 12.5 $\mu$Ccm-2 at the electric field of 200 kVcm-1.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effect of Yonggak-san (YGS) on the immune reaction and apoptosis of leukemia cells. Administration of YGS(500 mg/kg) enhanced proliferation of splenocytes, thymocytes and mesenteric lymph node cells, and also YGS accelerated subpopulation of splenic Band T, thymic T and mesenteric lymph node-T lymphocytes, especially significantly increased CD4+-TH cells in BALB/c mice. YGS accelerated phagocytic activity and production of nitric oxide in peritoneal macrophages. YGS induced apoptosis of transplanted-L1210 cells in vivo, increased apoptotic cell death of cultured-L1210 and/or Molt4 human leukemia cells, decreased of mitochondrial transmembrane potential of both cells in vitro. These results suggest that YGS have an immune-regulatory effect and anti-cancer property.

Textured Ce$O_{2}$ buffers for YBCO coated conductors were deposited on biaxially textured Ni substrate by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition The texture of deposited Ce$O_{2}$ films was varied with deposition temperature(T) and oxygen partial pressure($Po_{2}$). ($\ell$ 00) textured Ce$O_{2}$ films were deposited at T= 500~$520^{\circ}C$, $Po_{2}$= 0.90~3.33 Torr. The growth rate of the Ce$O_{2}$ films was 150~200 nm/min at T= $520^{\circ}C$ and $Po_{2}$= 2.30 Torr, which was much faster than that prepated by other physical deposition method.

Recently far infra-red (FIR) polarization of the $850{\mu}m$ continuum emission from T Tauri disks has been detected. The observed degree of polarization is around 3 %. Since thermal emission from dust grains dominates the spectral energy distribution at the FIR regime, dust grains might be the cause of the polarization. We explore alignment of dust grains by radiative torque in T Tauri disks and provide predictions for polarized emission for disks viewed at different wavelengths and viewing angles. In the presence of magnetic field, these aligned grains produce polarized emission in infrared wavelengths. When we take a Mathis-Rumpl-Nordsieck-type distribution with maximum grain size of $500-1000{\mu}m$, the degree of polarization is around 2-3 % level at wavelengths larger than ${\sim}100{\mu}m$. Our study indicates that multifrequency infrared polarimetric studies of protostellar disks can provide good insights into the details of their magnetic structure.

In this paper, we propose a new Suppressed Sidewall Injection Magnetotransistor(SSIMT) architecture, which allows to overcome the restriction of the standard CMOS technology and achieve high linearity. The proposed SSIMT is designed based on the Hynix 0.6 um standard CMOS technology. The fabricated SSIMT has been experimentally verified. The SSIMT shows that the change of collector current is extremely linear as a function of the magnetic induction at $I_{B}$ =500$\mu$A, $V_{CE}$ =2V and VSE =5 V. The relative sensitivity is up to 120 %/T. The magnetic conversion offset is about 79 mT with 30.5 %/T relative sensitivity. The nonlinearity of the fabricated SSIMT is measured about 1.4 %.%.

The immunosuppressive properties of flavonoids were examined for the first time by testing their effects on T-cell-mediated antibody production, using a classical plague-forming cell (PFC) assay in mice. Among the tested flavonoids including naringenin, chrysin, flavonol, galangin, quercetin, morin, myricetin and biochanin A, only quercetin, orally administered at 25 mg/kg, significantly inhibited the number of IgMproducing PFCs induced by sheep red blood cells (SRBC). Interestingly, biochanin A (isoflavone) increased the number of PFCs, suggesting an immunostimulatory effect. The other flavonoids tested did not inhibit or enhance PFC response significantly. Quercetin was also found to show thymus atrophy dose-dependently at 5-500 mg/kg. All these results indicate that quercetin inhibits in vivo antibody production probably by inhibiting T-cell function.

사람 T-임파구에서 방사선 독성물질인 감마선과 화학적 독성물질인 PCP(pentachlorophenol)의 돌연변이 효과를 hprt (hypoxanthine phosphoribosyl transferase) 유전자의 돌연변이빈도로써 측정하였다. 감마선은 $^{137}$Cs원을 사용하여, 0 - 300 rads의 양으로 세포의 초기배양 시기에 조사하였으며, PCP는 역시 세포의 초기배양시 최종농도 0-100 ppm으로 24시간 투여 하였다. 양 돌연변이원은 hprt유전자를 돌연변이 시키어, 300rads의 조사는 대조군에 비하여 약 7.5배의 돌연변이빈도의 증가를 나타내었고, PCP 500 ppm의 처리는 대조군에 비하여 약 5배의 돌연변이빈도 증가를 나타내었다. 본 실험에 사용된 상이한 두 돌연변이원은 모두 비교적 정확한 용량-반응 관계를 보였으나, 환경독성물질들의 혼합효과에서 돌연변이원을 정성하기위하여 개선된 T-cell hprt clonal assay, 즉 reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain reaction 및 direct sequencing에 의한 mutational spectrum의 적용이 요구되었다.
