전기자동차 시장의 급속한 성장으로 이차전지의 사용이 급증함에 따라 사용 후 전지의 폐기 및 재활용이 심각한 문제로 제기되고 있다. 사용 후 리튬이온 전지를 처리하기 위해서는 저장된 에너지를 제거하기 위하여 효과적으로 방전하는 과정이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 흑연과 LiNi_0.6Co_0.2Mn_0.2O₂ (NCM622)을 사용하여 코인셀 형태로 반쪽전지 및 완전지를 제조하였고, 이를 과방전할 때 발생하는 전기화학적 거동에 대하여 분석하였다. 반쪽전지를 사용하여 양극과 음극을 각각 과방전시키면, 양극에서는 먼저 전이금속 산화물이 금속으로 환원되는 전환반응을 겪게 되며, 음극에서는 SEI 피막의 분해에 이어 집전체인 Cu가 용출되는 부반응이 발생하였다. 또한, 이러한 과방전의 발생 시에는 큰 분극을 필요로 하였다. 완전지의 과방전 시에는 각각의 부반응이 진행되는 시점에 존재하는 큰 분극들로 인하여 부반응의 본격적인 발생 전에 0 V에 도달하여 방전이 종료되었다. 그러나, 사이클을 통하여 용량이 퇴화된 완전지의 경우에는 과방전거동이 변화하여 음극에서 Cu 집전체의 부식이 발생됨을 확인하였다. 따라서, 사용 후 전지는 사용 전의 전지와는 과방전 시에 다른 거동을 지니고 있으므로 이러한 점들이 고려되어야 한다.

An antimicrobially active bacterium which was identified as Bacillus brevis, was isolated from kimchi. The antimicrobial activity was found against various Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria including some pathogens food-spoilage microorganisms, and some yeast strains. The antimicrobial activity was especially strong against Bacillus anthracis and Shigella dysenteriae. The strong activity was observed during an early stationary phase in the culture when incubated at $37^{\circ}C$ with initial medium pH of 6.8. The antimicrobial activity was found to be stable at $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and in the pH range of 3-11, and it was insensitive to organic solvents including acetone, acetonitrile, ethanol, and methanol. Analysis of the bacterocin on tricine-sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel suggested a molecular mass of approximately 4.5-6.0 kDa. The antimicrobial substance was characterized as a bacteriocin, because of its proteinaceous nature and low molecular weight. The bacteriocin could potentially be used as a food preservative, because of its thermostable property and broad antimicrobial spectrum.

Transmission of substituent effects through 5-membered heteroaromatic rings is investigated theoretically at the RHF/6-31+G and B3LYP/6-31+G levels using the equilibria for the $OH^- addition to five-membered heteroaromatic aldehydes (5MHA). The transmission efficiency (S) in 5MHA(A) increases in the order NH>O>S>PH but the order exactly reverses in 5MHA($T^-$). This is originated by the delocalizability of the ${\pi}$ lonepair on Y, $$n_\pi$(Y)$. A better correlation is obtained with ${\sigma}_p^-$ in the Hammett plots with positive slope, $p_z$ > 0, indicating that the substituent (Z) effects are not transmitted by a direct conjugation. The magnitude of $p_z$ for Y=NH is the largest among the heteroaromatic systems, which is consistent with the largest transmission efficiency change $({\Delta}S)$. The equilibria for the addition processes are favorable in the gas phase $({\Delta}G^o<0)$, which reverses to unfavorable in aqueous solution $({\Delta}G^o>0)$ due to the relatively large salvation energy of $OH^-$ in the initial state in aqueous solution. The orders of ${\Delta}G^o$ and $p_z$ in the gas phase are almost maintained in solution.

Synbiotics help to improve gut health by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria while glyconutrients provide a source of energy for the gut bacteria and may also have immunemodulating effects. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of this combination on fatty acid and meat quality characteristics of growing pigs. In a five-week experiment, 804 growing three-way crossbred ([Landrace × Yorkshire] × Duroc) pigs with an initial body weight of 31.90 ± 2.6 kg on average were assigned to two treatments: 1) CON (basal diet) and 2) TRT1 (basal diet + 0.3% glycozyme [synbiotics and glyconutrient]), each consisting of 402 pigs. The TRT1 groups showed significantly higher values of palmitoleic acid (C16:1), capric acid (C10:0), myristic acid (C14:0), lauric acid (C12:0), elaidic acid (C18:1, t), pentadecylic acid (C15:0), gondoic acid (C20:1), lignoceric acid (C24:0), and omega-6 : omega-3 in fat than the CON groups. Moreover, in the lean tissues of the pig, the levels of C12:0, C14:0, C17:0, and C20:1 were significantly higher in TRT1 than in CON. However, significant differences were not observed after glycozyme addition in pH, water holding capacity, cooking loss, longissimus muscle area, drip loss, meat color, and sensory evaluation parameters. To conclude, the positive results of the fatty acid composition indicate that glycozyme may be an effective pig feed additive.

One hundred and twenty-eight finishing pigs (51.3 kg average initial body weight) were used to determine the effects of adding cellulase enzymes and lactobacillus acidophilus to sorghum-based diets on growth performance, carcass merit, and nutrient digestibility in finishing pigs. Treatments were: 1) corn-soybean meal-based positive control; 2) sorghum-soybean meal-based negative control; 3) Diet 2 with celluloytic enzymes; and 4) Diet 2 with a bacterial feed additive (lactobacillus acidophilus). There was a trend for greater average daily gain (ADG) in pigs fed com versus the sorghum treatments for day 0 to 28 (p < .09), but there was no effect of treatment (p > .15) on overall ADG (i.e., day 0 to 63). Feed consumption was not affected by treatment during the experiment (p > .19). Pigs fed the corn-soybean meal-based diet had 3.5% greater overall gain/feed than pigs fed the other diets (p < .009). Dressing percentage was not affected by treatment (p > .22), but there was a trend for backfat thickness at the last rib to be greater for pigs fed com versus the sorghum treatments (p < .09). Pigs fed the sorghum treatments had 1 % greater fat free lean index (p < .10) compared to pigs fed the corn-soybean meal-based positive control. Pigs fed com had greater apparent digestibilities of DM, N, and GE than pigs fed the sorghum treatments (p < .03), and greater DE intake (p < .07) suggesting that the increased carcass fatness for pigs fed the corn-based control diet resulted from greater energy status of those pigs. In conclusion, pigs fed the corn-soybean meal-based control diet had no improved growth performance but tended to be fatter than pigs fed sorghum. Adding cellulolytic enzymes or a bacterial feed additive to diets for finishing pigs did not affect growth performance, carcass merit, or nutrient utilization.

Quasiclassical trajectory (QCT) method has been used to investigate stereodynamics information of the reaction $O(^1D)+H_2{\rightarrow}\;OH$+H on the DK (Dobbyn and Knowles) potential energy surface (PES) at a collision energy of 23.06 kcal/mol, with the initial quantum state of reactant $H_2$ being set for v = 0 (vibration quantum number) and j = 0-5 (rotation quantum number). The PDDCSs (polarization dependent differential cross sections) and the distributions of P($\theta_r$), P($\phi_r$), P($\theta_r$, $\phi_r$) have been presented in this work. The results demonstrate that the products are both forward and backward scattered. As j increases, the backward scattering becomes weaker while the forward scattering becomes slightly stronger. The distribution of P($\theta_r$) indicates that the product rotational angular momentum j' tends to align along the direction perpendicular to the reagent relative velocity vector k, but this kind of product alignment is found to be rather insensitive to j. Furthermore, the distribution of P($\phi_r$) indicates that the rotational angular momentum vector of the OH product is preferentially oriented along the positive direction of y-axis, and such product orientation becomes stronger with increasing j.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of supplementing quercetin extracted from Sophora japonica flower (QS) to the diet of broiler chicks on their growth performance, apparent nutrient digestibility, cecal microbiota, serum lipid profiles, relative organ weight, and breast muscle quality. Methods: A total of 1,088 1-day-old broiler chicks (mixed sex) were randomly assigned to four groups based on the initial body weight (43.00±0.29 g). The experimental period was 35 days (starter, days 0 to 7; grower, days 7 to 21; finisher, days 21 to 35). There were 17 replicate cages per treatment and 16 birds per cage. Dietary treatments consisted of birds receiving basal diet without quercetin as the control group and treatment groups consisted of birds fed basal diet supplemented with 0.2, 0.4, or 0.6 g/kg QS. Results: With the increase of the QS dosage, body weight gain during days 0 to 7 (p = 0.021), 7 to 21 (p = 0.010), and 1 to 35 (p = 0.045), feed intake during days 0 to 7 (p = 0.037) and 1 to 35 (p = 0.025), apparent dry matter digestibility (p = 0.008), apparent energy retention (p = 0.004), cecal lactic acid bacteria counts (p = 0.023), the relative weight of breast muscle (p = 0.014), pH value from breast muscle (p<0.001), and the water holding capacity of breast muscle (p = 0.012) increased linearly, whereas the drip loss from breast muscle (p = 0.001) decreased linearly. Conclusion: The addition of QS in the diet of broiler chicks had positive effects on the breast muscle yield and breast muscle quality, and improved the dry matter digestibility and energy retention by increasing cecal beneficial bacteria counts, thus improving growth performance.

Glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1) deficiency syndrome (DS) is a metabolic brain disorder caused by a deficiency resulting from SLC2A1 gene mutation and is characterized by abnormal brain metabolism and associated metabolic encephalopathy. Reduced glucose supply to the brain leads to brain damage, resulting in delayed neurodevelopment in infancy and symptoms such as eye abnormalities, microcephaly, ataxia, and rigidity. Treatment options for GLUT1 DS include ketogenic diet (KD), pharmacotherapy, and rehabilitation therapy. Of these, KD is an essential and the most important treatment method as it promotes brain neurodevelopment by generating ketone bodies to produce energy. This case is a focused study on intensive KD nutritional intervention for an infant diagnosed with GLUT1 DS at Gangnam Severance Hospital from May 2022 to January 2023. During the initial hospitalization, nutritional intervention was performed to address poor intake via the use of concentrated formula and an attempt was made to introduce complementary feeding. After the second hospitalization and diagnosis of GLUT1 DS, positive effects on the infant's growth and development, nutritional status, and seizure control were achieved with minimal side effects by implementing KD nutritional intervention and adjusting the type and dosage of anticonvulsant medications. In conclusion, for patients with GLUT1 DS, it is important to implement a KD with an appropriate ratio of ketogenic to nonketogenic components to supply adequate energy. Furthermore, individualized and intensive nutritional management is necessary to improve growth, development, and nutritional status.

활성탄에 의한 acid fuchsin (AF) 염료의 흡착에 대한 등온선, 동력학 및 열역학적 특성치를 흡착제의 양, pH, 초기 농도, 접촉시간 및 온도를 변수로 하여 수행하였다. 활성탄을 사용한 AF의 흡착에 대한 pH의 영향은 산성(pH 8)에서 흡착백분율이 높은 욕조 현상을 나타냈다. 등온흡착 데이터는 Freundlich, Langmuir, Dubinin-Radushkevich 등온흡착식에 맞춰 보았다. Freundlich 식이 가장 높은 일치도를 나타냈으며, 흡착메카니즘이 다분자층 흡착임을 알았다. 흡착용량은 온도증가와 함께 증가하였다. Freundlich의 분리계수는 이 흡착공정이 적합한 처리공정임을 나타냈다. Dubinin-Radushkevich 등온흡착식에 의해 평가된 흡착 에너지는 활성탄에 의한 AF의 흡착이 물리 흡착임을 확인시켰다. 흡착동력학은 유사이차반응속도식에 잘 맞았다. 입자내 확산 모델에 의해 흡착점에서의 표면 확산이 율속단계로 평가되었다. 흡착공정의 활성화 에너지와 엔탈피 변화는 각각 21.19 kJ/mol, 23.05 kJ/mol 이었다. Gibbs 자유 에너지 변화는 흡착반응이 온도가 높아질수록 자발성이 더 진다는 것을 알려주었다. 양의 엔트로피는 이공정이 비가역적이라는 것을 나타냈다. 등량 흡착열은 본질덕으로 물리흡착임을 나타냈다.

제올라이트에 대한 수용액으로부터 brilliant green의 흡착 평형과 동역학 및 열역학 파라미터들을 다양한 초기농도(10-30 mg/L), 접촉시간(1-24 h) 및 흡착온도(298-318 K)를 변수로 하여 회분식 실험을 통하여 연구하였다. 흡착평형 값들은 Langmuir, Freundlich 및 Dubinin-Radushkevich 식으로 해석하였다. 그 결과는 Langmuir 식과 Freundlich 식에 잘 맞았으며, 평가된 Langmuir 무차원 분리계수 값($R_L=0.041{\sim}0.057$)와 Freundlich 상수값(1/n=0.30~0.47)은 제올라이트에 의한 brilliant green의 흡착이 효과적인 공정이 될 수 있음을 나타냈다. Dubinin-Radushkevich 식에 의해 평가된 흡착 에너지값(1.564~1.857 kJ/mol)은 물리흡착에 해당하였다. Brilliant green의 흡착 동력학은 유사이차반응속도식에 잘 맞았으며, 입자내 확산식에 잘 따랐다. 흡착 특성을 평가하기 위하여 주로 활성화에너지, Gibbs 자유에너지, 엔탈피 및 엔트로피와 같은 열역학 파라미터가 계산되었다. Gibbs 자유에너지-10.3~-11.4 kJ/mol), 엔탈피(49.48 kJ/mol) 및 활성화에너지(27.05 kJ/mol)는 흡착이 자발적이고, 흡열 및 물리흡착 공정임을 나타냈다.
