Effects of molecular characteristics such as melt index and shapes of molecular weight distribution on the charge formation in LDPE have been investigated. Both homocharge and heterocharge were observed in LDPE depending on the value of melt index. It was found that the LDPE having intermediate melt indices shows heterocharge while the LDPE having small and high melt indecies shows homocharge. The shapes of molecular weight distributions were also found to affect the space charge in LDPE. These were explained by the role of short chains having low molecular weight in LDPE.

In this study, molecular dynamics simulation of nano imprint lithography in which patterned stamp is pressed onto amorphous polyethylene(PE) surface are performed to study the behaviour of polymer. Force fields including bond, angle, torsion, and Lennard Jones potential are used to describe the inter-molecular and intra-molecular force of PE molecules and stamp, substrate. Periodic boundary condition is used in horizontal direction and canonical NVT ensemble is used to control the system temperature. As the simulation results, the behaviour of polymer is investigated during the imprinting process. The mechanism of polymer deformation is studied by means of inspecting the surface shape, volume, density, atom distribution. Deformation of the polymer resist was found for various of the stamp geometry and the alignment state of the polymer molecules.

Blood products from slaughterhouses that are not hygienically prepared for disposal or food consumption pose a human health hazard. Gamma irradiation is an effective method for sterilization of blood products, but may introduce changes in the molecular characteristics of proteins. This study evaluated the effects of irradiation on animal plasma proteins. Bovine and porcine blood was obtained from a slaughterhouse and the plasma proteins purified and lyophilized. The secondary structure and molecular weight distribution of the plasma protein solutions and powders were examined after ${\gamma}$-irradiation at 1, 5, 7 and 10 kGy. Gamma-irradiation affected the molecular properties of the protein solutions, but not the protein powders. Circular dichroism and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis studies showed that increased doses of ${\gamma}$-irradiation decrease the ordered structure of plasma proteins in solution, and cause initial fragmentation of the polypeptide chains and subsequent aggregation.

In this paper, we report a new cationic lipid composed of L-lysinamide and cholesterol as a potent gene delivery vector. $3{\beta}$[L-Lysinamide-carbamoyl] cholesterol could self-assemble with plasmid DNA forming discrete lipoplexes. From atomic force microscopic images of the complexes, the size distribution was observed to range from 100 to 150 nm in diameter. The transfection efficiency of this amphiphile on different cell lines was evaluated as a micellar solution in the absence of the fusogenic helper lipid, dioleoyl phosphatidyletbanolamine (DOPE). Transfection experiments were performed as a function of charge ratio (lipid/DNA) and transfection time. Cytotoxicity and in vitro transfection efficiency of the amphiphile was demonstrated and compared with those of commercially available Lipofectin and polyethylenimine (PEI).

The genetic diversities and relationships of 10 Chinese indigenous pig breeds and three exotic pig breeds have been evaluated using 26 microsatellites recommended by the Food and Agriculture Organization & the International Society of Animal Genetics (FAO-ISAG). The allele frequencies, genetic heterozygosity (H) and polymorphism information content (PIC) have been calculated. The results showed that genetic diversity of Chinese indigenous pig breeds is higher than that of the introduced pig breeds. The clustering of 10 breeds is generally consistent with their geographical distribution.

To efficiently demonstrate the molecular motion, physical properties, and mechanical properties of polycarbonates, we studied the differences between bisphenol-A polycarbonate(BPA-PC) and tetramethyl bisphenol-A-polycarbonate(TMBPA-PC) using molecular modeling techniques. To investigate the conformations of BPA-PC and TMBPA-PC and the effect of the conformation on mechanical properties, we performed conformational energy calculation, molecular dynamics calculation, and stress-strain curves based on molecular mechanics method. From the result obtained from conformational energy calculations of each segment, the molecular motions of the carbonate and the phenylene group in BPA-PC were seen to be more vigorous and have lower restriction to mobility than those in TMBPA-PC, respectively. In addition, from the results of radial distribution function, velocity autocorrelation function, and power spectrum, BPA-PC appeared to have higher diffusion constant than TMBPA-PC and is easier to have various conformations because of the less severe restrictions in molecular motion. The result of stress-strain calculation for TMBPA-PC seemed to be in accordance with the experimental value of strain-to-failure ∼4%. From these results of conformational energy calculations of segments, molecular dynamics, and mechanical properties, it can be concluded that TMBPA-PC has higher modulus and brittleness than BPA-PC because the former has no efficient relaxation mode against the external deformations.

본 연구에서는 회분여과방식을 이용하여 부하율에 따라 생성되는 생물대사성분의 특성 및 분포를 관찰하였다. 실험에 사용된 기질은 단일 탄소인 phenol을 사용하였으며, 분자량 분포실험을 위하여 분자량이 각각 30K, 100K Dalton 및 $0.45{\mu}$ membrane filter를 이용하여 구하였다. 페놀농도가 120, 230 및 440 mg/L 일 때 비기질이용율(q)은 각각 0.639, 1.281, 1.744 (mgTOC/mg MLSS/day)로 나타났으며 Run C일 때 가장 높은 이용율을 나타냈다 . 내생단계에서 미생물의 사멸율($K_d$)는 각각 0.0536, 0.0661, 0.0749($day^1$)이며 생성계수 ($SMP_e$) 는 각각 0.006, 0.0058, 0.0057($day^1$)로 나타났다. 초기 유입된 기질이 기질분해에 의해 생성된 $SMP_s$로 분해되어지며, 시간경과에 따라 $SMP_{nd}$ 로 진행됨을 알수 있었다. 기질분해 완료 후 미생물의 내생단계에 접어들면서 $SMP_e$성분으로 전환되었다. 유입부하율에 따른 분자량 분포 측정결과는 운전시간이 경고함에 따라 점차 저분자 물질이 고분자의 난분해성 물질로 전환되었다.

In a standard Metropolis-type Monte Carlo simulation, the proposal distribution cannot be easily adapted to "local dynamics" of the target distribution. To overcome some of these difficulties, Duane et al. (1987) introduced the method of hybrid Monte Carlo(HMC) which combines the basic idea of molecular dynamics and the Metropolis acceptance-rejection rule to produce Monte Carlo samples from a given target distribution. In this paper, using the HMC within Gibbs sampler, an asymptotical estimate of the smoothing mean and a general solution to state space modeling in Bayesian framework is obtaineds obtained.

The photosystem II (PSII) light harvesting complex (LHC) consists of a variety of pigment protein complexes which are involved in structural organization and regulation of photosynthetic unit. These LHC proteins encoded by a group of Lhcb genes are essential for the structural integrity of PSII supercomplex, the channeling the excitation energy to the reaction center of PSII and its redistribution to photosystem I by state transitions. Numerous studies with the help of recent technological advancements have enabled a significant progress in our understanding on the structure of PSII-LHCII supercomplexes and their mobilization under various light conditions. Here, we present a mini-review on the latest concepts and models depicting the structure of PSII-LHCII supercomplexes and the role of Lhcb proteins in their supra-molecular organization. Also we will review on the current understandings and remaining problems involved in the mobilization of the supercomplexes during state transitions and during high light illumination for controlling light energy distribution between the two photosystems.

PHOTO-RESIST 자체문제로인해 감소되는 최소해상력, 촛집심도여유 및 CRITICAL DIMENSION (C.D.) 조정여유도등을 연구하였다. 기존에 사용중인 PHOTO-RESIST(큰 분자량)와 PHOTO-RESIST자체내에 CONTRAST 촉진 물질(CEM)이 첨가된것(INNER CEM TYPE) 및 PHOTO-RESIST구성성분중 작은 분자량/좁은 분자량 산포가 형성된 RESIN 의 PHOTO-RESIST(LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT CONTROL TYPE)등 세가지 PHOTO-RESIST를 사용 하여 상기의 항목을 분석하였다. INNER CEM TYPE 및 LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT CONTROL TYPE의 PHOTO-RESIST는 기존에 사용중인 RESIST보다, 최소 RESOLUTION은 약 0.2 - 0.3 um, DEPOCUS MARGIN은 약 0.8 - 1.2 um 및 C.D. CONTROL LATITUDE 향상된 것 등이 우수하였다.
