The surface of polyethersulfone(PES) membrane treated by Ar, $NH_3$ plasma, and the effects were observed before and after the treatment. The membrane treated by Ar plasma was increased the O/C ratio and measured the hydrophilic group, and the one by $NH_3$ plasma was attached the amine group and the amino group. In addition, with the wettability of polyethersulfone membrane $CO_2$ and the polar functional groups of surface interacted increasingly. Thus by comparable increase of the soluble selectivity $CO_2$ to $N_2$ both the permeability and the selectivity of $CO_2$ was improved. The optimum condition for the $CO_2$ permeation and actual separation factor of the plasma treated membrane was as follows; the measurement of Ar-10 W-2 min plasma treatment was $13.19{\times}10^{-10}cm^3(STP)cm/cm^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}cmHg$ and 20.12, and the measurement of $NH_3$-50 W-2 min plasma treatment was $15.40{\times}10^{-10}cm^3(STP)cm/cm^2{\cdot}s{\cdot}cmHg$ and 20.06.

In this paper, we will define the Bergman projection type operator Pr and find conditions on which the operator Pr is bound-ed on $L^p$(B, dv). By using the properties of the Bergman projection type operator Pr, we will show that if $f{\in}L_a^p$(B, dv), then $(1-{\parallel}{\omega}{\parallel}^2){\nabla}f(\omega){\cdot}z{\in}L^p(B,dv)$. We will also show that if $(1-{\parallel}{\omega}{\parallel}^2)\; \frac{{\nabla}f(\omega){\cdot}z}{},\;{\in}L^p{B,\;dv),\;then\;f{\in}L_a^p(B,\;dv)$.

In this study, a mechanism by which glucose level modulates glucose transport in Jurkat cells was investigated. Glucose uptake was more efficient in the cells cultivated in low glucose (2.5 mM) medium than that grown in high glucose (20 $\mu$M) medium. Vmax (0.74 n㏖/10$^6$ cells$\cdot$min) of glucose uptake measured with the cells grown in the low glucose medium was higher than the one (1.06 n㏖/10$^6$ cells$\cdot$min) in the high glucose medium while Km was almost consistent through the change of glucose levels, indicating the increase of glucose transporter number.

The elution behaviors of molybdate and tungstate through anion exchange column have been investigated in the various concentration of hydrochloric and perchloric acid. A discussion is made to evaluate the existing these equilibrium and constant according to acidity. In both acids of 0.01-2.0 M concentration range, the existing equilibrium for molybdate and its constant calculated at $20^{\circ}C$ is $10^{18.9}$ for $Mo_8O_2^{4-} + 20H^+ {\rightleftharpoons} 8MoO_2^{2+} + 10H_2O$. In the 3-3.5 M hydrochloric acid it is 0.16 for $MoO_2Cl_2 + Cl^- {\rightleftharpoons} MoO_2Cl^{3-}$ and for the case of tungstate, in the both acids of 0.01-1.0 M concentration range $10^{6.6}$ for $W_{12}O_{39}^{6-} + 6H^+ {\rightleftharpoons} 12WO_3{\cdot}3H_2O$. In higher concentration than 1.0 M both acids the following equilibrium seems to be existed. $12WO_3{\cdot}3H_2O {\rightleftharpoons} 12WO_3 + 3H_2O$

In this study, the effect of additives on the performance of aqueous organic redox flow battery (AORFB) using quinoxaline and ferrocyanide as active materials in alkaline supporting electrolyte is investigated. Quinoxaline shows the lowest redox potential (-0.97 V) in KOH supporting electrolyte, while when quinoxaline and ferrocyanide are used as the target active materials, the cell voltage of this redox combination is 1.3 V. When the single cell tests of AORFBs using 0.1 M active materials in 1 M KCl supporting electrolyte and Nafion 117 membrane are implemented, it does not work properly because of the side reaction of quinoxaline. To reduce or prevent the side reaction of quinoxaline, the two types of additives are considered. They are the potassium sulfate as electrophile additive and potassium iodide as nucleophilie additive. Of them, when the single cell tests of AORFBs using potassium iodide as additive dissolved in quinoxaline solution are performed, the capacity loss rate is reduced to $0.21Ah{\cdot}L^{-1}per\;cycle$ and it is better than that of the single cell test of AORFB operated without additive ($0.29Ah{\cdot}L^{-1}per\;cycle$).

Heat transfer phenomena and temperature characteristics in heat storage and release process in the heat storage system using PCM(Phase Change material) were studied experimentally. The melting points of Octacosane paraffin($C_{28}H_{58}$) and sodium pyrophosphate decahydrate ($Na_4P_2O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$) used for phase change materials are $62^{\circ}C$ and $79^{\circ}C$ respectively. Experiments were performed in order to investigate temperature distributions, the heat storage quantity and the release quantity on octacosane paraffin and sodium pyrophosphate decahydrate for heat storage and release in the heat storage system. Furthermore the comparison of these characteristics between paraffin and $Na_4P_2O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$ were evaluated. In case of the paraffin, temperature slowly increased at early heat storage process by natural convection, while temperature of $Na_4P_2O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$ rapidly increased the dominant role played by conduction at early heat storage processing Also, during the heat storage and release process in case of the paraffin, it was observed that the variation of temperature of the neighborhood of wall and center in the top and bottom of the tube exhibited a great difference, however in $Na_4P_2O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$, it was observed that the variation of temperature exhibited a little difference. And heat storage quantity of each PCM of identity mass in heat storage process was shown that $Na_4P_2O_7{\cdot}10H_2O$ exhibited more by 16 percents than paraffin.

Solid electroyte nasion was synthesized by the optimized solid state reaction minimizing the volume fraction of secondary $ZrO_2$ and glassy phases. To compensate for the evaporation of Na and P during heat-treatment, excess Na and P were added to the starting composition $Na_{1+x} Zr_2 Si_x P_{d-x} O_{12}$ (x=2.1). Phases pure nasicon comparable in volume fraction to the one obtaied from sol-gel process were synthesized after the reaction at $1100~1150^{\circ}C$,$ P_{O2}>=0.1-0.15 $$ZrO_2$ increased with the heat-treatment time due to the decomposition of nasicon phase and that of glassy phase increased as partial oxygen pressure decreased. The synthesized nasion showed a good electrical conductivity of $-1{\times}10^{-2}({\omega}{\cdot}cm)^{-1}$ at $350^{\circ}C$.

We prepared the cylindrical $\gamma-alumina$ pellets of 5 mm in diameter and 10 mm in average length using amorphous alumina and pore generating agent. The pellets were immersed in an aqueous solution of the mixture of $Fe(NO_{3})_{3}{\cdot}9H_{2}O$ and $CH_{3}COOH$. They were then hydrothermally treated at $200^{\circ}C$ for 3 h in autoclave, dried and calcined. For the application as an environmental catalyst, we investigated the decomposition characteristics of aniline and the initiation characteristics of $OH^{\cdot}$ conversion action in $O_{3}$ environment with or without the $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ supported y-alumina catalyst and $O_{3}$ molecule.

Hizikia fusiformis is well known edible brown seaweed both in Korea and Japan. It has been intensively studied due to its pronounced health benefits. In this study, the radical scavenging (antioxidative) activities of its hydrophilic phlorotannin constituents were studied. An aqueous extract/original extract (OE) of H. fusiformis was initially prepared with heat, enzymes and pH control treatments. Then the original extract was further fractionated (with methylene chloride and methanol) and crude hydrophilic phlorotannin extract (CHPE) was prepared. The radical scavenging activities of both OE and CHPE were determined by using electron spin resonance (ESR) spectrophotometric assays such as 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), hydroxyl and alkyl radical assays. The CHPE reported significantly (p < 0.05) higher total phenolic (phlorotannins) content (1.23 mg ${\cdot}ml^{-1}$) than that of the OE (0.21 mg ${\cdot}ml^{-1}$). Both OE and CHPE have reported good radical scavenging activities and those activities were dose-dependent. The CHPE have demonstrated significantly higher radical scavenging activities than that of the OE. In comparison, the DPPH radical (6 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ M) scavenging activities of all the CHPE concentrations (0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg ${\cdot}ml^{-1}$) tested were significantly higher (37.3, 78.2 and 91.6%, respectively) than that of the OE counterparts (11.4, 34.6 and 61.7%, respectively). Alkyl radical scavenging percentages of CHPE at 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25 and 0.5 mg${\cdot}ml^{-1}$ were significantly higher (34.3, 69.2, 80.4 and 88.7%, respectively) than that of the OE (16.6, 41.4, 62.3 and 77.4%, respectively). The percentages of hydroxyl radical scavenging activities of CHPE at the concentrations of 0.25, 0.5 and 1 mg ${\cdot}ml^{-1}$ were 32.5, 59.4 and 84.2 % respectively. Moreover, the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of OE was quite lower than that of the CHPE. Therefore, these results suggest that the hydrophilic phlorotannins of H. fusiformis are potential radical scavengers thus, a great source of antioxidative nutraceuticles.

This study was conducted to investigate the general characteristics of raw okra seeds and the functional components of roasted okra seeds. The number of okra seed per pod was 78 in 'Greensod' and 88 in 'Beny'. The weight of okra seed per pod of 'Greensod' and 'Beny' were 4.4 g and 6.3 g, respectively. Free amino acid contents of the stir-fry and fresh okra seeds were measured as $2.69mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$ and $0.31mg{\cdot}g^{-1}$. Total polyphenolic compound content of the stirfry okra seeds was estimated as $12.61mg\;CGA{\cdot}g^{-1}$, compared to $2.54mg\;CGA{\cdot}g^{-1}$ fresh okra seeds, Thus, free amino acid and total polyphenolic compound contents in the stir-fry okra seeds were higher than fresh one, Antioxidant activities, such as DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging in the stir-fry okra seeds was the higher than fresh okra seeds.
