Ambient urban particulate matters contain various transition metals. When the particulate matters are inhaled into the lung, not all but some part of metals from the particles might be mobilized to participate in a reaction that can damage various biomolecules, such as DNA and proteins. The dust particle size as well as organic acids may influence the metal mobilization. Thus, the mobilization of the metal from SRM1648 (NIST, USA) and urban particulate matters (PM2.5 and PM10) was measured in the presence of artificial or biological chelator with or without reductant. The degree of the mobilization was higher with the artificial or biological chelator than the control with saline. In some cases, a reductant increased the mobilization as much as about 5 times the control without the reductant. Especially, the mobilization of Fe was greatly influenced by the presence of reductants. In general, the degree of the mobilization of the transition metal was higher with PM2.5 than with PM10. Therefore, it is expected that, considering the previously known toxicities of the transition metals, the PM2.5 is more damaging to various biomolecules than PM10. The results also suggest that not the total amount but the mobilizable fraction of the metal in the dust particles should be considered with regard to the toxicity of the urban particulate matters.

The nonstructural protein NSP4, encoded by gene 10 of rotavirus, has been shown to playa role in viral assembly and known to be an enterotoxin, causing diarrhea in mouse pups. NSP4 gene was cloned from CBNU-2 (virulent bovine rotavirus/diarrheic fecal sample) and CBNU-1 (cell-culture adapted bovine rotavirus/isolated from CBNU-2 and 75 times passaged on MA104 cells), respectively, by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and sequenced and compared. The sequence data indicated that the NSP4 genes of bovine rotavirus (BRV) were 751 bases in length and encoded one open reading frame of 175 amino acids beginning at base 42 and terminating at base 569. Differences in nucleotide sequence between CBNU-2 and CBNU-1 were observed at 6 positions (base 274, 296, 391, 394, 396 and 579). NSP4 gene of BRV exhibited a high degree of nucleotide (90% and 94%) and amino acid sequence (91% and 97%) homology with those of SA11 and UK but a low degree of nucleotide (77% and 79%) and amino acids sequence (81% and 85%) homology with those of Wa and OSU.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the crystal texture of the 2223 phase and its relationship with PIT processing parameter. Ag-sheathed Bi-2223 multi-filament tapes were prepared by changing rolling reduction ratio. We analysed the degree of texture for 2223 phase after heat-treatment. According to X-ray pole-figure, the texture of the filaments located near surface and center were not so different each other for all rolling conditions. we found a little higher degree of texture for 60% rolling reduction. But its difference is not so high compared with those tapes with a lower rolling reduction ratio. Reaction induced texturing seemed to contribute with a large portion under present condition.

Enzymatic treatment conditions for red ginseng residue (RGR) were investigated to apply RGR as a microbial medium. Polysaccharide hydrolyase and protease were screened to obtain high solid and carbohydrate yields, and a good degree of carbohydrate hydrolysis. The optimal dosage and reaction time for Viscozyme, the chosen polysaccharide hydrolyase, were found to be 1.0% (w/w) and 3 h, respectively. Of the tested proteases, Flavourzyme, whose optimal dosage was 0.5% (w/w), was selected. Co-treatment with the optimal dosages of Flavourzyme and Viscozyme increased solid yield, carbohydrate yield, and degree of carbohydrate hydrolysis by 76%, 65%, and 1,865%, respectively, over levels in non-treated RGR. The culture characteristics of Leuconostoc mesenteroides strain KACC 91459P grown in enzymatically hydrolyzed red ginseng residue (ERGR) and RGR suspensions were compared. After cultivation for 6 h, the viable cell counts of both cell suspensions rapidly increased to $1.3{\times}10^9$ colony-forming units (CFU)/g. Moreover, while the viable cell population drastically decreased to $2.4{\times}10^6\;CFU/g$ for cells grown in RGR medium, it was maintained in cells fermented in ERGR medium for 24 h.

The effect of acid treatment of cellulose on the substitution charateristics of carboxymethylation was studied in this paper. Five samples of hydrocellulose(HC), all prepared from ${\alpha}$-cellulose by hydrolysis with five reaction times and determined on average molecular weight and polydispersity, were carboxymethylated to carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The CMCs from HCs were examined upon degree of substitution(DS), distribution of carboxymethyl groups in anhydroglucose units of the cellulose, and unsubstituted anhydroglucose(USAG) content. The DS of CMCs increased with increasing the hydrolysis time except CMC from HC at 1 hour hydrolysis time. In carboxymethylation the availability of hydroxyl groups on anhydroglucose units in HCs was the highest on OH(2), and the relative availability of OH(6) increased with the increasing of the hydrolysis time. The USAG contents were more deviated than that calculated based on Spurlin's model, and had a strong tendency of decreasing with increasing the hydrolysis time. The reactivity of HC was lower than that of ${\alpha}$-cellulose and the relative availability of OH(6) in HC increased with the hydrolysis time.

본 연구는 pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) 분리막의 구조적 특성이 미치는 영향에 대하여 수행되었다. 이를 위해, 유사 분자구조를 가지며 자유부피는 차이가 나는 BPS-XX, BisA-XX가 선택되었다. BPS-XX와 BisA-XX는 축중합 반응을 통해 합성되었으며, 또한 더 세분화된 결과를 위해서 20~60 mol.%로 술폰화되었다. 자유부피의 변화에 따른 분리막의 특성을 입증하기 위해서 몇 가지 특성평가가 진행되었다. 연구 결과에서 동일 분자구조에서 자유부피가 증가하면 막의 투과도가 증가하였고, 선택도는 감소하였다. 본 연구의 투과도-선택도 결과에서, 분자의 기본 구조와 자유부피 조절에 따라서, 고 투과도와 선택도를 가진 막을 제조 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

서로 다른 흑연화도를 갖는 furan 수지로 부터 얻어진 무기화합물(SiC, TiO2) 첨가 탄소재료의 산화반응의 흑연구조 의존성에 대하여 살펴보았다. 탄소재료의 산화는 시료의 표면적에 크게 의존하여, 흑연화가 상당히 진행된시료라 할지라도 표면적이 클 때는 살화속도도 빠른 것으로 밝혀졌으며, 단위 중량이 아닌 단위면적당의 산화속도로 바꿔 생각했을 때 흑연화가 진행될 수록 산화반응도 늦어지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 겉보기 활성화 에너지값으로 부터 생각할 때 흑연(TiO2 첨가시료)과 난층흑연(SiC 첨가시료)이 동일한 반응기구에 의해 산화가 진행되는 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 두종류 이상의 결정구조가 혼재하여 있는 시료의 경우 이들 성분들의 산화속도는 달라 반응의 초기에 흑연으로 결정화된 않은 비정질 탄소 성분이 흑연 성분보다 먼저 선택적으로 산화되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, the effect of mechanical polishing of carbon steel on the tribological properties of manganese phosphate coating on carbon steel has investigated. The microstructure, surface morphology and chemical composition were analyzed by SEM, EDS, and XRD. The surface roughness test was carried out in order to calculate Rvk value by 3D laser microscopy. Also, the tribology property of manganese phosphate coating was tested by ball-on disk. In the results of EDS analysis, coating layer consists of elements such in Mn, P, Fe, and O. XRD showed that (Mn,Fe)₅H₂(PO₄)₄·4H₂O in manganese phosphate coating layer was formed by the chemical reaction between manganese phosphate and elements in carbon steel. As the mechanical polishing degree increased, the friction coefficient was reduced. The rougher the mechanical polishing degree, the better corrosion resistance was obtained.

The purpose of this study was to examine the tissue response to experimental furcation perforations immediately treated with Super EBA, Ketac Silver, MTA and Emdogain using surgical microscope. Forty experimental furcation perforations were created in the mandibular and maxillary premolars and molars of 4 adult dogs and immediately repaired with experimental materials. The animals were sacrificed after 16 weeks and radiographic and histologic results were evaluated. The results were as follows. 1 All materials tested in this experiment revealed a certain degree of extrusion of the filling materials and infiltration of inflammatory cells into the periodontal space. Except MTA group, epithelial down-growth of the surrounding gingiva was found in all experimental groups. 2. Both Ketac Silver and Emdogain group showed the greatest degree of inflammatory reaction and bone resorption. 3. Super EBA group showed moderate inflammation and newly bone formation under the perforation area. 4. MTA group showed minor inflammation, new bone regeneration toward restorative materials and partially cementum growth onto the surface of the material. This group demonstrated a favorable prognosis.

This study aims to optimize the DL-EPR test solution for duplex stainless steel S31083 using the Taguchi design. The test solution parameters applied to the Taguchi design are H₂SO₄, NaCl, KSCN concentration, and temperature. In the experimental design, an orthogonal array of 4 levels 4 factor L₁₆(4⁴) was used. Output values for the orthogonal array were used for resolution (degree of sensitization) and selective etch (I_a) values. The optimal test solution conditions were selected by comparing the normalized S/N ratio for the two reaction properties. As a result, the H₂SO₄ and NaCl were identified as the main factors influencing the sensitivity measurement, but the delta statistics showed that the KSCN concentration and temperature had relatively low influence. The optimal condition was identified as 1.5 M H₂SO₄+0.03 M KSCN+1.5M NaCl at 30 ℃. The degree of sensitization presented a tendency to depend on the heat treatment temperature and time in the optimal test solution. This investigation confirmed the possibility of optimizing the experiment solution for the DL-EPR test of stainless steel using the Taguchi technique.
