  • Respiration in Antheraea mylitta was studied using constant pressure respirometer. Oxygen uptake in different stages of life showed that moth has highest rate of oxygen uptake as compared to larva and pupa. At each stage significant sexual differentiation was observed. Depression in the rate of oxygen uptake in diapausing pupa was found to be higher in male ($65.75\%$) than female ($60.65\%$) as compared to non-diapausing counterparts. During diapause lowest oxygen uptake was recorded in the month of February, and were in the order of February < January < December < March < November < April < May < June in male, and, February < January < December < March < April < November < May < June in female. Significant sexual differentiation in oxygen uptake was recorded throughout the period of diapause (November to June) where female pupae registered lower rate of oxygen uptake than that of male. Oxygen uptake in female pupae declined upto $28.89\%$ in non-diapausing and $18.29\%$ in diapausing broods over male. Highest respiratory quotient value was recorded in the moth of November (0.68 in male and 0.70 in female) and, the lowest in the month of March in male (0.54) and May in female (0.55). Percentage loss in pupa weight always remained at a significantly higher level in male (except in February and March). The lowest oxygen uptake rate and weight loss in the month of February shows that the pupae were at peak of their dormancy during this month.

  • This study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that administration of the air with 30% oxygen compared with normal air (21% oxygen) enhances cognitive functioning through increased activation in the brain. Seventeen college students (right­handed, average age of 24.3) were selected as subjects for this study. An oxygen supply equipment that provides 21% and 30% oxygen at a constant rate of 8L/min was developed. In order to measure the performance level of visuospatial and verbal cognition, two psychological tests were developed. The experiment consisted of two runs, one for cognition task with normal air (21% oxygen) and the other for cognition task with hyperoxic air (30% oxygen). Visuospatial and verbal tasks were presented while brain images were scanned by a 3T fMRI system using the single-shot EPI method. The results showed that there was an improvement in performance and also increased activation in several brain areas in the higher oxygen condition. These results suggest that while performing cognitive tasks, high concentrations of oxygen administration make oxygen administration sufficient, thus making neural network activate more, and the ability to perform cognitive tasks increase.

  • 본 연구에서는 radio frequency (RF)-스퍼터링을 이용하여 SiC 기판 위에 Ga2O3 박막을 증착하여 Metal-Semiconductor-Metal (MSM) UV photodetector (PD)를 제작하였고, 산소 후열처리에 따른 PD 성능을 연구하였다. 산소 후열처리된 Ga2O3 박막은 외부 광에 대한 전류의 상당한 증가와 시간 의존성 on/off 광 응답 특성에서 측정된 감소시간이 1.21, 1.12 s로 후열처리를 하지 않은 박막의 감소시간인 1.34, 3.01 s 보다 더 빠른 반응을 보여주었다. 이러한 특성은 산소 후열처리 후의 산소 공공 및 결함 분포 변화에 기인한다. 우리의 연구 결과는 산소 후열처리가 PD 성능 향상에 영향을 미칠 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

  • 빈산소 수괴는 산소 부족뿐만 아니라, 용존산소의 결핍에 따른 혐기 상태에서 생성된 황화수소와 암모니아 등 유독가스가 어 패류를 직접 폐사시키거나, 저서생물 군집의 출현종과 개체 수에도 심각한 영향을 마친다. 본 연구에서는 빈산소 수괴가 발생한 해역의 저층 해수를 펌핑하여, 액체산소를 용해시켜 용존산소 농도를 20 mg/L 이상으로 상승시킨 해수를 다시 저층으로 주입하는 장치를 개발하여 그 효능을 검토하였다. 이 장치를 이용하여 해수를 $3.6\;m^2$/min 용량으로 저층에 주입하면서 액체산소를 분당 4.8~26.3 L 범위로 공급할 때, 단시간에 해수 중 용존산소 농도는 7~25 mg/L로 상승하였다. 이때 공급한 액체산소는 해수 중에 90% 이상 용해되는 것으로 나타났다 본 장치는 산소를 용해시키기 위한 별도의 탱크가 필요 없고, 해수를 수면위로 퍼 올리는 높이가 낮아도 되므로 적은 동력을 이용하여 높은 효율로 고농도의 산소를 저층에 공급할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러므로 본 장치는 연안 및 호소의 저층 빈산소 수괴 발생을 저감시킬 수 있어 빈산소 수괴 발생으로 인한 양식피해를 저감시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • One of the main problems to constitute control method on biologically oriented wastewater purification processes, e.g. activated sludge process, sequential batch reactor, rotating bio-disk contactor, etc. is that it is hard to control the target component directly. For instance, while biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids, and chemical oxygen demand are the key components to check the process performance, one may not control them directly since they are the results of microbial activities related to numerous physiochemical factors. Therefore controllers for bioprocess should be designed to make favorable condition for microorganisms´ living, e.g. dissolved oxygen level favorable, mixed liquor suspended solids concentration suitable ...

  • The oxygen dependent regulation of DNA replication is an essential property of proliferating mammalian cells. In human T24 bladder cancer cells, several hours of hypoxia leads to reversible DNA replication arrest and re-entry of oxygen induces a burst of replication initiation. This short communication provides strong evidence that PD184352 initiates DNA replication in living hypoxic cells without elevating the oxygen level. PD184352 releases the regular hypoxic replicon arrest, however, at a low intensity compared to the effect of reoxygenation. Moreover, PD184352 shows no effect on normoxically incubated as well as reoxygenated T24 cells.

  • The effects of denudation anneals on the properties of 256Mega-bit level devices were investigated. Based on the three-step anneal model, the redistribution of oxygen atom and the defect free zone depth were calculated. A significant outdiffusion of oxygen atoms is occurred during the denudation anneals at high temperature. Junction leakage current of P+/N-Well and N+/P-Well junctions, as a function of denudation anneal temperature, was decreased with increase of anneal temperature and is closely related with the behaviors of oxygen atoms. Also it is found that the denudation anneal at high temperature very effective for the fabrication of reliable 256Mega-bit level devices.

  • To show the effects of metallothionein (MT) on the activity of enzymes involved in the removal of reactive oxygen species, MT has been added to the assay systems of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase and peroxidase. We have used assay systems of SOD based on NADPH oxidation and nitrite formation from hydroxylammonium chloride as an assay of superoxide breakdown rate. The two assay systems showed different results at the high concentration of MT. MT showed the scavenging of superoxide in the SOD assay system in the presence and absence of SOD. MT added to the SOD assay system behaved as an activator of SOD, but apo-MT behaved as an inhibitor. When MT was added to the assay system in the presence of a fixed amount of SOD, the breakdown rate of superoxide increased. The effects of MT on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide and the activity of catalase and peroxidase decomposing hydrogen peroxide were evaluated. MT decreased the activities of catalase and peroxidase. We have concluded that the function of MT as an antioxidant might effect the level of superoxide scavenging and not the level of hydrogen peroxide.

  • 대뇌혈류를 증가 시키는 수술은 뇌경색의 치료방법중 하나이다. 이러한 침습적인 방법을 보완하기 위해 사람의 혈압을 이용해, 사지에 압박을 가하여 대뇌 혈류를 증가 시키는 비 침습적인 장치도 등장하였다. 그러나 속도와 정확성이 떨어지는 문제점이 제기되었다. 본 논문에서는, 정확한 측정과 측정하는 데에 걸리는 시간을 기존의 장치보다 개선하기 위해, Blood Oxygen Level Sensor를 이용하여, 양팔에 압력을 주면서 각 팔의 Perfusion Index를 측정하여, Perfusion Index가 일정 값 이하로 떨어지는 순간의 75% 압력을 팔에 가하고, 다리에는 팔에서 구해진 압력 값을 이용해 계산하여 얻은 압력을 가한다. 기존의 혈압 측정식 대뇌혈류증가 장치와 같이, 혈류량을 20%이상 증가 시킬 수 있고, 또한 측정 시간도 단축한 결과를 얻어 뇌경색 환자에게 선택적으로 사용할 수 있다.

  • Usually, the oxygen vacancy is an important factor in an oxide semiconductor device because the conductivity is related to the oxygen vacancy, which is formed at the interface between oxide semiconductors and electrodes with an annealing processes. ZTO is made by mixing n-type ZnO and p-type $SnO_2$. Zink tin oxide (ZTO), zink oxide (ZnO) and tin oxide ($SnO_2$) thin films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering and annealed, to generate the oxygen vacancy, were analyzed by XPS spectra. The contents of oxygen vacancy were the highest in ZTO annealed at $150^{\circ}C$, ZnO annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ and $SnO_2$ annealed at $100^{\circ}C$. The current was also increased with increasing the oxygen vacancy ions. The highest content of ZTO oxygen vacancies was obtained when annealed at 150. This is the middle level in compared with those of ZnO annealed at $200^{\circ}C$ and $SnO_2$ annealed at $100^{\circ}C$. The electrical properties of ZTO followed those of $SnO_2$, which acts a an enhancer in the oxide semiconductor.
