3D bioprinting is a technology to produce complex tissue constructs through printing living cells with hydrogel in a layer-by-layer process. To produce more stable 3D cell-laden structures, various materials have been developed such as alginate, fibrin and gelatin. However, most of these hydrogels are chemically bound using crosslinkers which can cause some problems in cytotoxicity and cell viability. On the other hand, thermosensitive hydrogels are physically cross-linked by non-covalent interaction without crosslinker, facilitating stable cytotoxicity and cell viability. The examples of currently reported thermosensitive hydrogels are poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(propylene glycol)/poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-PPG-PEG) and poly(ethylene glycol)/poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) (PEG/PLGA). Chitosan, which have been widely used in tissue engineering due to its biocompatibility and osteoconductivity, can be used as thermosensitive hydrogels. However, despite the many advantages, chitosan hydrogel has not yet been used as a bioink. The purpose of this study was to develop a bioink by chitosan hydrogel for 3D bioprinting and to evaluate the suitability and potential ability of the developed chitosan hydrogel as a bioink. To prepare the chitosan hydrogel solution, ${\beta}-glycerolphosphate$ solution was added to the chitosan solution at the final pH ranged from 6.9 to 7.1. Gelation time decreased exponentially with increasing temperature. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image showed that chitosan hydrogel had irregular porous structure. From the water soluble tetrazolium salt (WST) and live and dead assay data, it was proven that there was no significant cytotoxicity and that cells were well dispersed. The chitosan hydrogel was well printed under temperature-controlled condition, and cells were well laden inside gel. The cytotoxicity of laden cells was evaluated by live and dead assay. In conclusion, chitosan bioink can be a candidate for 3D bioprinting.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physico-mechanical properties and characteristics on reduction of formaldehyde and total volatile organic compound (TVOC) emission from particleboard (PB) with added volcanic pozzolan. Pozzolan was added as a scavenger at the level of 1, 3, 5, and 10 wt.% of urea formaldehyde (UF) resin for PB manufacture. The moisture content, density, thickness swelling, water absorption and physical properties of PBs were examined. Three-point bending strength and internal bond strength were determined using a universal testing machine. Formaldehyde and TVOC were determined by desiccator and 20L small chamber methods. With increasing pozzolan content the physical and mechanical properties of the PBs were not significantly changed, but formaldehyde and TVOC emissions were decreased. Because pozzolan has a rough and irregular surface with porous form, it can be used as a scavenger for PBs at a content up to 10 wt.% without any detrimental effect on the physical and mechanical properties.

A $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor powder with stuffed tridymite structure was synthesized by glycine-nitrate combustion method. The luminescence, formation process and microstructure of the phosphor powder were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL). The XRD patterns show that the as-synthesized $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor was an amorphous phase. However, a crystalline $SrAl_2O_4 $ phase was formed by calcining at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 4h. From the SEM analysis, also, it was found that the as-synthesized $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor was in irregular porous particles of about 50 ${\mu}m$, while the calcined phosphor was aggregated in spherical particles with radius of about 0.5 ${\mu}m$. The emission spectrum of as-synthesized $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor did not appear, due to the amorphous phase. However, the emission spectrum of the calcined phosphor was observed at 520 nm (2.384eV); it showed green emission peaking, in the range of 450~650 nm. The excitation spectrum of the $SrAl_2O_4:Eu^{2+},Dy^{3+}$ phosphor exhibits a maximum peak intensity at 360 nm (3.44eV) in the range of 250~480 nm. After the removal of the pulse Xe-lamp excitation (360 nm), also, the decay time for the emission spectrum was very slow, which shows the excellent longphosphorescent property of the phosphor, although the decay time decreased exponentially.

핀-휜 구조물이 삽입된 채널은 열전달이 향상되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 복잡한 핀-휜 구조물은 다공성 매체로 모사할 수 있을 만큼 매우 불규칙적인 유동을 보여준다. 본 연구는 수치해석을 통하여 핀-휜 구조물이 삽입된 채널의 열전달과 압력강하의 특성을 분석하였다. 유효유동공간비가 높고 직경이 큰 경우 실험데이터를 잘 예측 하였지만, 유효유동공간비가 낮은 경우 비교적 오차가 큰 편이었다. 유효유동 공간비가 낮을수록 유동교란이 강해져서 열전달이 증가하지만 압력강하도 증가하여 팬의 동력이 증가하기 때문에 최적점을 찾아서 설계하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 전면유속이 5m/s 일 때, D25 모델에서는 유효유동공간비가 0.5인 지점에서, D05 모델에서는 0.9에서 압력강하가 급격하게 늘어나기 때문에 이보다 더 작은 유효유동공간비에서의 작동은 바람직하지 않다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate adhesion and gene expression of the MC3T3-E1 cells cultured on machined titanium surface (MS) and anodized titanium surface (AS) using MTT test, Scanning electron micrograph and cDNA microarray. Materials and Methods: The MTT test assay was used for examining the proliferation of MC3T3-E1 cells, osteoblast like cells from Rat calvaria, on MS and AS for 24 hours and 48 hours. Cell cultures were incubated for 24 hours to evaluate the influence of the substrate geometry on both surfaces using a Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM). The cDNA microarray Agilent Rat 22K chip was used to monitor expressions of genes. Results: After 24 hours of adhesion, the cell density on AS was higher than MS (p < 0.05). After 48 hours the cell density on both titanium surfaces were similar (p > 0.05). AS had the irregular, rough and porous surface texture. After 48 hours incubation of the MC3T3-E1 cells, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) was up-regulated on AS than MS (more than 2 fold) and the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor was down-regulated (more than 2 fold) on AS than MS. Conclusion: Microarray assay at 48 hours after culturing the cells on both surfaces revealed that osteoinductive molecules appeared more prominent on AS, whereas the adhesion molecules on the biomaterial were higher on MS than AS, which will affect the phenotype of the plated cells depending on the surface morphology.

The purpose of this investigation was to evaluate the effect of the porous hydroxyapatite particles (Interpore $200^{(R)}$) and guided tissue regeneration membrane ($Gore-Tex^{TM}$ augmentation material) on amount and shape of generating new bone adjacent to implant. Implants were placed immediately after extraction in the bilateral 3rd, 4th premolars of the mandible of the adult dogs. In all experimental groups, artificial bony defects were formed at the buccal cortex area, 3.3mm in width and 3.0mm in depth. In the control group : sutured without HA particles & membranes after placing implants, the experimental group 1 : membrane was place over the artificial bony defect, the experimental group 2 : bony defect was filled with HA particles and covered with membrane. The examination of bone-implant interfaces using light microscope and fluorescent microscope concluded as follows. 1. In all three experimental groups, osseointegration was observed without epithelial migration. 2. In the healing degree of bony defect area, the experimental group 1, 2 showed more prominent healing than control group, and the experimental group 1 showed the most excellent bone formation. 3. In fluorescent microscopic finding, bone remodeling was observed in regenerated bone tissue at defect area of experimental group 1, but in experimental group 2, irregular, discontinuous linear fluorescence was observed at the lower portion of defect area and sign of bone remodeling was weak.

Developing effective and earth-abundant electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is critical for the commercialization of a water splitting system. In particular, the overpotential of the OER is relatively higher than the HER, and thus, it is considered that one of the important methods to enhance the performance of the electrocatalyst is to reduce the overpotential of the OER. We report effects of incorporation of metalloid into Ni(OH)2 microcrystal on electrocatalytic activities. In this study, Te incorporated Ni(OH)2 (��Te-Ni(OH)2) were grown on three-dimensional porous NF by a facile solvothermal method with �� = 1, 3 and 5. Homogeneous microplate structure on the NF was clearly observed for the Ni(OH)2/NF and ��Te-Ni(OH)2/NF samples. However, irregular and collapsed nanostructures were found on the surface of nickel foam when Te precursor ratio is (��) over 3. Electrocatalytic OER properties were analysed by Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The amount of Te incorporation used in the electrocatalytic reaction was found to play a crucial role in improving catalytic activity. The optimum Te amount (��) introduced into the Ni(OH)2/NF was discussed with respect to their OER performance.

지표수-지하수 혼합대는 하천 및 호소 등에서 지표수와 지하수가 교환되는 공간이다. 지표수-지하수 혼합은 하상의 토층으로 확장되어 다양한 물리적, 생지화화적, 열역학적 교환을 발생시키며 수생태계 내 고유한 생태적 전이대를 형성하는데 주요한 역할을 한다. 과거 실험 및 수치모의 연구에 의하면 혼합대에서 발생하는 물질교환은 하천의 지형적인 특징으로 발생하는 압력분포에 의해 지배된다. 특히 하천의 구간 규모에서 여울-소 구조는 혼합대의 특성을 지배하는 주요 인자로 알려져 있다. 여울-소 연속 구조는 지표수에서 재순환영역과 정체점을 형성하며 이 독특한 흐름 구조에 의해 혼합대의 흐름특성이 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 동수역학 모형을 이용하여 Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes 방정식과 Darcy 방정식을 동시에 해석하여 연속된 여울-소 구조에서 발생하는 지표수의 흐름구조가 혼합대의 흐름에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 모의 결과, 여울-소 구조에서 지표수의 재순환영역 및 정체점은 상승류와 하강류 형성과 직접적 연관을 가지며, 재순환영역의 크기가 감소하면 여울 전면부 하강류 형성 구간의 길이가 감소하고 최대 하강류 발생 지점이 하부로 이동하는 특성을 파악하였다. 이와 같은 본 연구의 결과는 혼합대의 현장관측, 하천 관리 및 복원 등의 연구에 활용하여 친환경 하천 조성에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
