MCM-41(Mobil's Composition of Matter-41) and expanded graphite(EG) were investigated as potential adsorbents for heavy metal ions including Pb(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) in various aqueous chemistries. MCM-41 showed shorter equilibrium times and higher adsorption capacities for all three heavy metal ions compared to expanded graphite. The adsorption of three heavy metal ions was significantly affected by the solution pH due to the competition with $H_{3}O^{+}$ at lower pH and precipitation at neutral or higher pH. Adsorptions of heavy metal ions onto MCM-41 and expanded graphite were successfully described with the pseudo-second-order model. During the competitive adsorption of three heavy metal ions, the selectivity of Pb(II) was highest and almost same selectivity was observed with Cu(II) and Ni(II) when MCM-41 was used as an adsorbent, while the expanded graphite exhibited the highest selectivity to Pb(II), followed by Ni(II) and Cu(II).

High velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spraying was used to coat Ti(Al,O)/$Al_2O_3$ powder onto the SS41 steel plate. Macrostructure of the coated specimen has been investigated by scanning electron micrograph (SEM). High temperature oxidation behavior of the coated specimen and SS41 steel have been studied. From the results of SEM observation, Ti(Al,O)/$Al_2O_3$ powder was coated well onto the substrate SS41 steel. Porosity onto the coated layer was only 0.38%. The oxidation results showed that Ti(Al,O)/$Al_2O_3$ powder coated SS41 steel have improved little oxidation resistance at $900^{\circ}C$ in air, but improved remarkably oxidation resistance at $800^{\circ}C $ in air compare to the substrate SS41 steel.

Meju is a traditional Korean fermented soy product used as a key element for soy sauce and doenjang. Bacilli with antimicrobial activity were isolated from meju prepared by traditional methods at Sunchang county, Jeollabukdo, Korea. Six isolates were identified as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens by recA gene sequencing and RAPD-PCR. One isolate, B. amyloliquefaciens MJ5-41, showed the strongest fibrinolytic activity. A 27 kDa active fibrinolytic enzyme, AprE5-41, was purified from the culture supernatant of MJ5-41 grown on LB by chromatographic methods. The optimum pH and temperature for purified AprE5-41 were 7.0 and $45^{\circ}C$, respectively. AprE5-41 quickly degraded $A{\alpha}$ and $B{\beta}$ chains but not the ${\gamma}$-chain of fibrinogen. AprE5-41 exhibited the highest specificity for N-succinyl-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe p-nitroanilide, a known substrate for ${\alpha}$-chymotrypsin, cathepsin G, and subtilisin BPN'. The structural gene, aprE5-41, was cloned by PCR and successfully expressed in B. subtilis.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of acpuncture and electro-acupuncture of low(EA(L)) and high(EA(H)) frequency at Haegye(ST41) on intestinal hypomotility induced with loperamide in rats. Methods : We made suppressed state of intestinal motility with loperamide in rats and carried out needle retention acupuncture, low frequency electro-acupuncture and high frequency electro-acupuncture at ST41 in rats devided into pre-treatment group and post-treatment group. We fed charcoal to them after the treatment and measured the travel rate of charcoal in the gastrointestinal track to analyze which treatment is more effective in state of intestinal hypomotility. Results : None of acupuncture, EA(L) and EA(H) at ST41 had significant influences on intestinal motility of rat in normal state. Needle retention at ST41 did not significantly increase intestinal motility suppressed with loperamide in rats. Pre-treatment of EA(L) and EA(H) at ST41 significantly increased intestinal motility suppressed with loperamide in rats. Post-treatment of EA(L) and EA(H) at ST41 did not have significant influences on intestinal motility of rat in normal state. Conclusions : These results suggest that treatment of EA(L) and EA(H) at ST41 may be effective on gastric disorders such as intestinal hypomotility and its effect had more prevention than cure. Further study is necessary to know more effects of ST41 and electro-acupuncture of low and high frequency.

효율적인 약물 전달 시스템을 개발하기 위한 연구의 일환으로, 초임계 상태에서 mesoporous silica인 MCM-41에 항염증제 ibuprofen을 함침시키고, 그 방출효과를 실험적으로 조사하였다. 초임계 용매로는 기존의 약물 처리 공정에 사용되는 유기용매의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 무독성의 초임계 이산화탄소를 선택하였다. 실험은 수열합성법에 의한 MCM- 41의 합성, 초임계 이산화탄소에 의한 MCM-41에의 ibuprofen 함침 및 함침된 ibuprofen 용출의 세 공정으로 구성하였다. 초임계 함침 공정의 함침평형에 도달하는 시간은 본 연구의 조건 범위에서 약 2h 정도였으며, 평형 함침량은 초임계 이산화탄소에 대한 ibuprofen의 용해도 증가에 따라 증가하였다. Ibuprofen의 용출속도는 함침된 ibuprofen의 함량에 무관하게 유사한 형태의 용출 특성을 나타내었다.

고농도의 1-부텐을 생산하기 위하여 흡착 분리제의 개발이 필수적인데, 본 연구에서는 메조포러스 실리케이트인 MCM-41을 지지체로 하여 $AgNO_3$를 함침시켜 흡착제를 제조한 후, 1-부텐과 n-부탄의 흡착 특성을 연구하였다. 또한, 열처리 조건에 따른 $Ag^+$ 이온의 형성 비율과 1-부텐의 결합 능력을 알아보았다. MCM-41 흡착제의 경우, 13X 제올라 이트에 비하여 매우 높은 흡착량을 보여주었으며, 은이 담지되었을 때, n-부탄의 흡착량은 감소하는 반면에 1-부텐의 흡착량은 증가함으로써 1-부텐과 n-부탄의 흡착 분리에 매우 좋은 성능을 갖음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 진공 분위기에서 373 K로 열처리한 Ag/MCM-41의 경우 가장 높은 1-부텐/n-부탄 흡착비를 보였으며, 특히 저압에서 매우 높은흡착비를 보여주었다.

흡연은 음주와 더불어 치과질환을 유발하는 원인인자로 알려져 있으나, 흡연자와 비흡연자간의 구강 내 분포하는 미생물을 조사한 연구는 현재 매우 미비한 상태이다. 본 연구에서는 흡연자 30명, 비흡연자 30명으로 나누어 구강 내 분포하는 세균을 분리하고 혈액한천배지에서 배양하였다. 분리된 병원성 세균은 Kirby-Bauer 항생제 감수성 검사 방법으로 항생제에 대한 감수성 및 내성을 검사하였다. 각각의 콜로니는 그람 염색을 하였고 자동 동정기인 VITEK을 이용하여 동정하였다. 그람 염색법을 이용한 결과 흡연자의 구강에서는 총 41개 균주가 분리되었고, 그 중 그람 양성 구균 63%, 그람 음성 구균 29%, 그람 양성 간균 3%, 그람 음성 간균 5%가 나타났고, 비흡연자의 구강에서는 총 38개 균주가 분리되었고 그 중 그람 양성 구균 55%, 그람 음성 구균 26%, 그람 양성 간균 3%, 그람 음성 간균 16%가 나타났다. VITEK system을 이용하여 세균의 특이적 분포를 조사한 결과 흡연자의 구강에서는 Streptococcus mutans (6/41), Gemella morillorum (6/41), Streptococcus oralis (2/41), Streptococcus pneumoniae (1/41), Staphylococcus aureus (3/41), Streptococcus anginosus (1/41), Streptococcus intermedius (1/41), Streptococcus uberis (1/41), and Streptococcus sanguinis (1/41) 반면 비흡연자의 구강에서는 Streptococcus sanguinis (8/38), Staphylococcus aureus (1/38), Staphylococcus auricularis (1/38), Streptococcus uberis (1/38), Streptococcus intermedius (1/38), Streptococcus mutans (1/38), and Streptococcus oralis (1/38)로 나타났다. 3명의 흡연자에서 분리된 S. aureus는 Beta-lactamase를 분비하는 MRSA로 동정된 반면 비흡연자 한 명에서 분리된 S. aureus는 Beta-lactamase를 분비하지 않고 methicilin에 감수성을 보였다. 흡연자와 비흡연자의 상재균은 다른 분포를 보였고 특히 G. morillorum와 MRSA가 흡연자의 구강에서 흔히 발견됨을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과들은 흡연자의 구강질환을 예방 및 치료에 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

The envelope glycoprotein of HIV, gp41, mediates the membrane fusion with human cells. The extracellular domain of gp41 has two helical regions. The N-terminus helical region (N-helix) forms trimeric coiled coil, interacts with the C-terminus helical region (C-helix) of gp41 to form a stable helical bundle structure. In this study, we have shown that the N-helix of gp41 has membrane interacting and disrupting abilities. It was localized into the interface of the lipidic phase and head group of the membrane. In contrast, the N-helix region with membrane fusion defective mutations could not bind to membrane. In addition, the N-helix bound on the membrane was released from the membrane by the C-helix, and the complex of the N- and C-helix did not interact with membrane. These results suggested that the membrane binding ability of the N-helix is necessary for the fusion activity of gp41, and such property is possibly controlled by the C-helm.

The location of R-determinants, $Ap^{r}$ and $Tc^{r}$, and replication origin in pKU41 determined using the construction of miniplasmid by the BamHI and the HindIII restriction fragment from pKU41 and the cloning of the restriction fragments from pKU41 into pSY343. The gene encoding resistance to ampicillin (Ap) as well as replication origin in pKU41 were located on the region overlapping BamHI B fragment and HindIII A fragment. The gene encoding resistance to tetracycline (Tc) was located on the region of the HindIII C fragment, which was cleaved by BamHI as well.

The incorporation of cobalt into mesoporous molecular sieves MCM-41 and MCM-48 was carried out. Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 were prepared using Co(II) acetate solution adjusted to pH = 3.0 with phosphoric acid by the incipient wetness method. Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) was used to study the local environments of Co(II) incorporated into mesopores. The band around 500 nm in PAS of as-prepared Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 with Co(II) acetate solution was changed to triplet bands around 600 nm. This could be assigned to the 4 A2(F)-> 4T1(P) transition of Co(II) surrounded tetrahedrally by oxygen ions after calcination. It may be attributable to that the octahedral cobalt species containing phosphate ligands in coordination sphere reacting with framework's silanol groups to be dispersed atomically onto the surface of mesoporous molecular sieves as a tetrahedral species. This is unlike that the Co in Co-Cl/MCM41 and direct-synthesized Co-MCM41 transforms to Co oxide phase upon calcination. Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 were stable while treated with water.
