A simple, sensitive and reproducible high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method has been validated for determining concentrations of glutamate, glycine, and alanine in human plasma. Proteins in plasma were precipitated with perchloric acid, followed by derivatization with 6-aminoquinolyl-N-hydroxysuccinimidyl carbamate (AQC). Simultaneous analysis of glutamate, glycine, and alanine is achieved using reversed-phase HPLC conditions and ultraviolet detection. Excellent linearity was observed for these three amino acids over their concentration ranges with correlation coefficients (r)>0.999. The intra- and inter-day precision were below 10%. This method utilizes quality control samples and demonstrates excellent plasma recovery and accuracy. The developed method has been successfully applied to measure plasma glutamate, glycine, and alanine in twenty volunteers.

The hydrolysis kinetics of 2-furyl chalcone derivatives $[I]{\sim}[V]$ was investigated by ultraviolet spectrophotometery in 30% dioxane-$H_{2}O$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and the structure of these compounds were ascertained by means of ultraviolet, infrared and NMR spectra. The rate equations which were applied over a wide pH range(pH $1.0{\sim}12.0$) were obtained. The substituent effects on 2-furyl chalcone derivatives $[I]{\sim}[V]$ were studied, and the hydrolysis were facilitated by the electron attrecting groups. On the basis of the rate equation, substituent effect, general base effect and final product. the plausible hydrolysis mechaism was proposed: Below pH 4.0, it was only proportional to concentration of hydronium ion, at pH $4.0{\sim}9.0$, neutral $H_{2}O$ molecule competitively attacked on the double bond. By contrast, above pH 9.0, it was proportional to concentration of hydroxide ion.

Ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors are used in various industries and fields of research, including optical communication, flame sensing, missile plume detection, astronomical studies, biological sensors, and environmental research. However, general UV detectors that employ Schottky junction diodes and p-n junctions have high fabrication cost and low quantum efficiency. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of materials used to manufacture UV photodetectors in a low-cost solution process that requires easy fabrication of flexible substrates. We fabricated p-type NiO and n-type ZnO substrates with wide band gap by the sol-gel method and compared the characteristics of substrates prepared under different spin-coating and heat-treatment conditions.

We synthesized three kinds of chromophores incorporating aromatic quinoline unit as a $\pi-conjugated$ bridge in order to prepare more thermally stable nonlinear optical (NLO) chromophores than general stilbene unit. The NLO poly(methylmethacrylate) copolymer, polyimides, and polyester were successfully synthesized by these corresponding quinoline-based monomers. Their physical and optical properties were investigated by thermogravimetry, gel permeation chromatography, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, second harmonic generation (SHG) and electro-optic (EO) measurement. All the polymers exhibited better thermal stability,however their NLO activity was a little lower than that of general stilbene-based NLO polymers. Among three kinds of polymers, the PMMA copolymer with quinoline chromophores had the largest SHG coefficient d33 value of 27 pm/V (at 1.064 $\mu\textrm{m})$ and EO coefficient r33 value of 6.8 pm/V (at 1.3 $\mu\textrm{m}$).

자외선 차단제는 자외선을 차단 및 산란시켜 자외선으로부터 보호하는 제품으로 이제 화장품을 넘어서 생활필수품으로 자리 잡고 있다. 자외선 차단제 바르기는 일반적이면서도 손쉬운 자외선에 의한 피부 손상 예방법이다. 이러한 중요성에 따라 자외선 차단제 평가시험은 1978 년 Fod and Drug Administration (FDA)에서 규정을 마련한 이후, 현재는 International Organization For Standardization (ISO)에서 표준화된 방법까지 발전되었다. 더불어 물이나 땀 등 신체활동에 의한 자외선 차단제 손실을 평가하기 위해 국내 식약처와 ISO에서 내수성 자외선 차단지수 평가시험을 제정하고 있다. 그러나 지금까지의 내수성 자외선 차단지수 평가시험은 주로 일반 물을 사용한 시험 방법에 국한되어 있으며, 해변에서의 레저, 스포츠 및 여가활동에 의한 해수의 영향을 고려한 시험 방법은 아직 정립되지 않았다. 본 연구는 기존의 내수성 자외선 차단지수 평가시험 방법 가이드라인을 기반으로 일반 물, 인공 해수(소금물) 및 자연 해수(바닷물)에서의 내수성 자외선 차단지수를 비교하여 해양 레저, 스포츠 및 여가활동 등과 같은 실제 상황에서의 자외선 차단지수를 평가할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 조사하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 일반 물과 인공 해수 및 자연 해수에서의 내수성 자외선 차단지수 평가시험의 차이를 비교하여 자연 해수를 이용한 내수성 자외선 차단지수 평가시험 방법을 제시할 수 있었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the dimension safety evaluation between a general ultrasonic cleaner and an ultrasonic cleaner equipped with UV-C (ultraviolet-C). Methods: An edentulous model was prepared. A denture base and an occlusal rim were fabricated, and scanning was performed. After scanning, a denture base and full arch artificial teeth were designed. The full arch artificial teeth were printed using a three-dimensional printer (n=10). The residual resin was washed with alcohol and then scanned (reference data). The printed specimens were classified and cleaned using a general ultrasonic cleaner (GU group) and an ultrasonic cleaner equipped with UV-C (UC group). After each washing, a rescan was performed (scan data). Reference data and scan data were superimposed using overlapping software. Data were statistically analyzed using the Mann-Whitney test (α=0.05). Results: In the deviation values of full arch artificial teeth, the GU group showed a high deviation of 18.02 ㎛ and the UC group showed a low deviation of 15.02 ㎛. The two groups demonstrated a statistically significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusion: Full arch artificial teeth prepared using photopolymerized resin were deformed according to the temperature of water generated in the ultrasonic cleaner. It is judged that there is no deformation according to the UV-C ultrasonic cleaner.

오이류 덩굴마름병균(Didymella bryoniae)의 포자형성에 미치는 배지, 근자외선광과 화광색형광등 12시간 교호조사와 계속암흑처리의 영향을 조사하였다. Didymella bryoniae를 감자한천과 V-8 juice 한천에 배양하였을 때 광선은 병자각 및 자양각의 형성을 촉진하였으나 계속 암흑처리구의 포자형성은 낮았다. 그러나 균주에 따라서는 무광하에서도 병자각과 자양각을 형성할 수 있었다. V-8 juice 한천에 배양했을 때 자양각의 형성은 근자외선 보다는 화광색광선에서 촉진되었다. 일반적으로 광원에 관계없이 V-8 juice 한천에 배양한 것이 감자한천에 배양한 것보다 포자의 형성이 양호하였다. 감자한천에서 배양된 C. bryoniae의 각균주는 병포자의 대부분이 무격막의 소형 병포자였음에 비하여 V-8 juice 한천에 배양한 것은 무격막의 대형 병포자 또는 1개의 격막을 가진 병포자로써 병든 종자의 배축상에 형성된 배포자와 흡사하였다. 자양각의 외관은 병자각과는 판이하였으며 유두상 각공위에 백색의 포자괴가 형성되었다.

House-residual spraying and insecticide-treated bed nets have achieved some success in controlling anthropophilic and endophagic vectors. However, these methods have relatively low efficacy in Korea because Anopheles sinensis, the primary malaria vector, is highly zoophilic and exophilic. So, we focused our vector control efforts within livestock enclosures using ultraviolet black light traps as a mechanical control measure. We found that black light traps captured significantly more mosquitoes at 2 and 2.5 m above the ground (P<0.05). We also evaluated the effectiveness of trap spacing within the livestock enclosure. In general, traps spaced between 4 and 7m apart captured mosquitoes more efficiently than those spaced closer together (P>0.05). Based on these findings, we concluded that each black light trap in the livestock enclosures killed 7,586 female mosquitoes per trap per night during the peak mosquito season (July-August). In May-August 2003, additional concurrent field trials were conducted in Ganghwa county. We got 74.9% reduction (P<0.05) of An. sinensis in human dwellings and 61.5% reduction (P>0.05) in the livestock enclosures. The black light trap operation in the livestock enclosures proved to be an effective control method and should be incorporated into existing control strategies in developed countries.

We report the results of our analysis of far ultraviolet (FUV) observations made for the broad region around the ${\alpha}$ Vir (Spica) including the interaction zone of the Loop I and the Local Bubble. We employed the datasets of the GALEX and the FIMS, which made observations at similar FUV wavelengths. First, we noted that the GALEX image was enhanced in the southern region where the interaction zone exists. We attribute this enhanced FUV emission to dust scattering of the stellar photons, mostly from the background field stars with small contributions from the central star Spica. While the region is optically thin in general, the FUV intensity did not correlate well with the dust extinction level, indicating that the local radiation field has significant fluctuations. On the other hand, the GALEX FUV intensity well with the $H{\alpha}$ intensity as well as the dust extinction level in the northern part. In fact, the neutral hydrogen column density correlated very well with the dust extinction level throughout the whole region in consideration. The relationship between the neutral hydrogen column density and the color excess was estimated to be ${\sim}7{\times}10^{21}atoms\;cm^{-2}$, which is a little higher than the previous observations made for a diffuse interstellar medium. The spectral analyses of the FIMS observations showed the enhanced C IV emission throughout the whole region, indicating that the C IV emission arises by the interaction of the hot gases with the shell boundaries. A simple model showed that a large portion of the C IV emission comes from the Loop I side of the interaction zone, compared to the Local Bubble side. The FIMS spectrum also showed indications of the molecular hydrogen fluorescence lines for the interaction zone.
