This study examined the antioxidative activity of delphinidin, a kind of anthocyanidin from eggplant. Cellular protective potential from oxidative damage by nitric oxide (NO), superoxide anion ($O_2^-$), and peroxynitrite ($ONOO^-$) using epithelial cell line LLC-PK1 cell as well as in vitro radical scavenging effects were investigated. Delphinidin showed strong in vitro radical scavenging effects against NO, $O_2^-$, and hydroxyl radical (${\cdot}OH$) in dose-dependent manners. In addition, delphinidin increased cell viability in LLC-PK1 cells in a concentration-dependent manner when viability was reduced by $ONOO^-$-induced oxidative damage. To elucidate the protective mechanisms of delphinidin from $ONOO^-$, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), and pyrogallol were also employed to generate NO and $O_2^-$, respectively. The treatment of delphinidin recovered reductions in cell viability caused by SNP and pyrogallol, indicating that delphinidin can attenuate oxidative stress induced by NO and $O_2^-$. The present study suggests that delphinidin is a promising anti oxidative agent.

In this research, nanocomposite layers consisting of poly (3,4,-ethylene dioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonic acid (PEDOT:PSS) and CuO nanoparticles were investigated as hole transport layers in organic solar cells based on poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) as the electron donor and (6.6) phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) as the electron acceptor. The addition of CuO nanoparticles to PEDOT:PSS layer improved the solar cell performance with 0.5% CuO nanoparticle concentration. At optimized concentration, CuO mixed PEDOT:PSS films had good electrical ($4.131{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) and optical (transmittance > 90%) properties for using hole transporting layer. We investigated that improved solar cell performance with CuO nanoparticles mixed PEDOT:PSS films.

[ $LiNiO_2$ ] was synthesized by the solid-state method after mixing $LiOH{\cdot}H_2O$ and $Ni(OH)_2$ with SPEX mill. The optimum condition for the synthesis of $LiNiO_2$ was the calcination at $750^{\circ}C$ for 30h in $O_2$ stream after milling for 1 h. The $LiNiO_2$ synthesized under this condition showed relatively large value of $I_{003}/I_{104}$ and relatively small value of R-factor. When $LiNiO_2$ was cycled in 2.7$\~$4.15 V at 0.1C-rate, the first discharge capacity was not very large (145.8 mAh/g) but it showed good cycling performance. When $LiNiO_2$ was cycled in 2.7$\~$4.2 V at 0.1C-rate, the first discharge capacity was large but ,it showed poor cycling performance probably because of the transition of H2 hexagonal structure to H3 hexagonal structure. In addition, when $LiNiO_2$ was cycled in 1.0$\~$4.8 V at 1/24C- rate, the first discharge capacity was very large (257.7 mAh/g) and the discharge capacity increased with the number of cycles.

Amorphous $MnO_{2}{\cdot}nH_{2}O$ in 1M KOH aqueous electrolyte proves to be an excellent electrode for a faradic electrochemical capacitor cycled between -0.5 and +1.0 versus Ag/AgCl. The effect of thermal treatment on the crystalinity, particle structure, and corresponding electrochemical properties of the resulting xerogel remained amorphous as Mn(OH)2 up to 160$^{\circ}C$. With an increase in the temperature above 200$^{\circ}C$, both the surface area and pore volume decreased sharply, because the amorphous Mn(OH)2 decomposed to form MnO that was subsequently oxidized to form crystalline Mn3O4. In addition, the changes in the crystallinity, and particle structure all had significant but coupled effects on the electrochemical properties of the xerogels. A maximum capacitance of 160.6F/g was obtained for an electrode prepared with the MnOx Xerogel calcined at 150$^{\circ}C$, which was consistent with the maxima exhibited in both the surface area and pore volume. This capacitance was attributed solely to a surface redox mechanism.

본 연구는 산성광산배수 (AMD)의 처리 과정에서 생성되는 부산물 ochre의 이화학성, 광물학적 특성 및 환경 분야 활용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 적극적 처리법인 물리 화학적 정화 처리시설에서 생성된 ochre-H와 수동적 처리법인 자연 정화 처리시설에서 생성된 ochre-D, ochre-S의 특성을 비교 분석하였다. Ochre-H는 광물 내 침철석 (goethite) 함량 및 철 성분 함량이 다른 시료에 비해 상대적으로 낮게 나타났지만, 소석회 내 칼슘 이온의 인 흡착 능력과 상대적으로 높은 흡착 표면적 등이 장점으로 작용할 수 있다. 또한 환경 생태계의 중금속 오염 가능성이 희박하고 물리 화학적 정화 처리시설에서 균일한 특성의 ochre를 대량 생산할 수 있으므로 실용적이며, 경제성이 높을 것으로 판단된다. Ochre-H의 인 흡착 특성은 Freundlich 흡착등온식모델에 적합하였다. 또한 ochre의 흡착 특성이 단분자층 흡착이 아닌 여러 분자층으로 흡착되어 매우 높은 흡착량을 가지기 때문에 인 출현곡선 (BTC)은 1이 아닌 0.3~0.4 상대농도 범위에서 평형에 도달하였다. 실제로 물 중 인 제거 능력을 평가한 실험에서 인 농도 외에 다른 오염원이 존재할 것으로 예상되는 수질 시료의 경우를 제외한 나머지 시료에서는 수질 및 수생태계 생활환경기준상의 인 농도 I 등급 기준치 이하로 검출되어 정화능력이 우수함을 확인하였다. 또한 정화 처리 과정 중 ochre내의 철 성분이 수질 내로 용출되는 양은 많지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 실험을 통하여 확인한 ochre의 높은 인 제거능력을 이용하여 부영양화 현상에 대한 정화제로 환경 분야에 적용하기 위해서는 오염원이 유입되는 하천 등의 위치를 정확히 파악한 후, 현장에 필터 형태의 pilot을 제작하여 설치하는 것이 중요하며, 또한 슬러지의 일종인 ochre 내 철 등으로 인한 수질오염의 발생 여부를 확인하여 유해하지 않음이 검증되어야 한다.

In this study, the radical scavenging activity and protective effect of ethanol extract from leaf of Engelhardtia chrysolepis HANCE (ECE) against oxidative stress were investigated under in vitro and cellular system. ECE showed strong radical scavenging activities in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, hydroxyl(${\cdot}OH$) and nitric oxide(NO) radical as a concentration-dependent manner. Particularly, strong scavenging activity against the ${\cdot}OH$ and NO radical were observed with the $IC_{50}$ value of $1.30{\mu}g/ml$ and $12.61{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Furthermore, the cellular oxidative stress was induced by amyloid beta($A{\beta}_{25-35}$) in C6 glial cells. The treatment of $A{\beta}_{25-35}$ to C6 glial cells generated high levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS) and declined cell viability. However, production of ROS was decreased by the treatment of ECE. In addition, the cell viability was significantly increased at each concentration(10, 25, $50{\mu}g/ml$) as dose-dependent manner. The Alzheimer's disease-related protein expressions in $A{\beta}_{25-35}$-treated C6 glial cells were analyzed. The ECE treatment inhibited expression of amyloid precursor protein(APP), C-terminal fragment-${\beta}(CTF-{\beta})$, ${\beta}$-site APP cleaving enzyme(BACE), phosphorylated tau(p-tau) proteins in C6 glial cells induced by $A{\beta}_{25-35}$. The present study indicated that ECE has strong radical scavenging activity and neuroprotective effect through attenuating oxidative stress.

아메리슘(Am)은 사용후핵연료의 장기 방사성 독성에 크게 영향을 주기 때문에 고준위 방사성 폐기물 처분의 장기 안전성 평가에 필수적으로 고려되어야 할 원소이다. 분광학적 방법을 이용한 일부 악티나이드 원소의 화학반응 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 반면, 아메리슘에 대한 연구는 아직까지 미비한 상황이다. 이 연구에서는 고순도의 시료를 필요로 하는 화학반응 연구를 위하여 $^{241}Am$ 시료를 정제한 후, 액체섬광계수기와 감마선 및 알파선 스펙트럼을 이용하여 정량과 정성분석을 하였다. 액체 광도파 모세관 셀을 이용한 고감도의 UV-Vis 흡수 분광학과 시간분해 레이저 형광 분광학을 이용하여 Am(III) 가수분해물과 옥살레이트(oxalate, Ox) 착물반응을 조사하였다. 산성조건에서 $Am^{3+}$은 503 nm에서 최대 흡수봉우리를 보이며, 몰흡광계수는 $424{\pm}8cm^{-1}{\cdot}M^{-1}$임을 확인하였다. 중성 이상의 pH 조건에서 형성되는 $Am(OH)_3(s)$ 콜로이드 입자에서는 506-507 nm 파장에서 최대 흡수봉우리가 관측되었다. ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$ 착물은 $Am^{3+}$에 비교하여 흡수 및 발광스펙트럼이 각각 4와 5 nm정도 장파장으로 이동하였고 몰흡광계수와 발광세기도 크게 증가하였다. ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$의 발광수명은 23에서 56ns으로 증가하였고 이는 Am(III)의 내부권에 결합하고 있던 약 여섯 개의 물분자가 옥살레이트의 카르복실기로 치환되었음을 의미한다. 이 결과로부터 ${Am(Ox)_3}^{3-}$은 각 옥살레이트 리간드가 두 자리 결합(bidentate)을 하고 있다는 것을 제안하였다.

The study was conducted to evaluate the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of sponge cake with different amounts of ${\beta}$-glucan, 2%, 4% and 6%. Addition of ${\beta}$-glucan did not affect the texture property of batter in terms of springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and hardness. The volume of the sponge cake was significantly decreased in only 6% ${\beta}$-glucan added group, compared to the control. The pH, height, weight and moisture content of the cake were not significantly different between the control and ${\beta}$-glucan added groups. Lightness and yellowness of the cake crust were the highest in the 4% ${\beta}$-glucan group, while redness was decreased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan content. The color of the cake crumb was not significantly different between the control and ${\beta}$-glucan group, and nor were the texture properties and sensory quality of the sponge cake. These study results show that the addition of ${\beta}$-glucan up to 4% did not affect the quality of sponge cake.

This study compared the predictive models for the growth kinetics of Staphylococcus aureus in ham rice balls. In addition, a semi-quantitative risk assessment of S. aureus on ham rice balls was conducted using FDA-iRISK 4.0. The rice was rounded with chopped ham, which was mixed with mayonnaise (SHM), soy sauce (SHS), or gochujang (SHG), and was contaminated artificially with approximately $2.5{\log}\;CFU{\cdot}g^{-1}$ of S. aureus. The inoculated rice balls were then stored at $7^{\circ}C$, $15^{\circ}C$, and $25^{\circ}C$, and the number of viable S. aureus was counted. The lag phases duration (LPD) and maximum specific growth rate (SGR) were calculated using a Baranyi model as a primary model. The growth parameters were analyzed using the polynomial equation as a function of temperature. The LPD values of S. aureus decreased with increasing temperature in SHS and SHG. On the other hand, those in SHM did not show any trend with increasing temperature. The SGR positively correlated with temperature. Equations for LPD and SGR were developed and validated using $R^2$ values, which ranged from 0.9929 to 0.9999. In addition, the total DALYs (disability adjusted life years) per year in the ham rice balls with soy sauce and gochujang was greater than mayonnaise. These results could be used to calculate the expected number of illnesses, and set the hazard management method taking the DALY value for public health into account.
