The concentration of selenium in grain samples was determined using isotope dilution method in ORC-ICPMS. The experimental conditions were optimized to $H_2$ mode and the flow rate was $4.0\;mL\;min^{-1}$. ORC in $H_2$ mode proved to eliminate most of polyatomic interferences except $BrH^+$ when Br is present in sample matrix. Chemical removal of Br was very difficult and the mathematical correction was successfully employed. The fraction of $BrH^+$ generated from Br at the current experimental condition was 14.1%. The signal on m/z 82 was corrected and calculated for isotope dilution. The analytical reliability of the propose method was successfully evaluated by analyzing the certified standard reference material NIST SRM 1566 and 1567. The method was applied to real samples and the results are $0.034{\pm}0.001\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for white rice, $0.059{\pm}0.002_5\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for brown rice, $0.029{\pm}0.001_4\;{\mu}g\;g^{-1}$ for black rice, and $0.034{\pm}0.002\;{\mu}g \;g^{-1}$ for barley. The detection limits ($3\sigma$) for Se was $0.012\;ng\;g^{-1}$.

기원전 5000년 이집트에서부터 시작된 도금은 시간이 지남에 따라 점점 발전하여, 1900년대에 들어 전기를 이용한 도금공정이 개발되었고, 현재 뿌리산업으로써 각종 제조업에 널리 이용되고 있다. 도금 공정은 금속을 부식으로부터 보호하고, 제품의 심미성과 기능성, 생산성 등을 높이기 위해 주로 이용된다. 전주도금 공정은 완벽하게 동일한 형태의 생산품을 다량으로 제작 할 수 있기 때문에, 그 높은 생산성으로 주목 받고 있다. 특히, 나노/마이크로 크기의 정밀 소자 등을 가공하는 차세대 기술인 LIGA공정과 접목이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 몰드를 이용하여 복제하는 방식인 전주 도금은 도금공정이 끝난 후 몰드와 완성된 제품을 분리해내는 추가공정이 필연적으로 발생하게 되는데, 둘 사이의 접착력을 낮추기 위하여 몰드의 표면에 이형박리제를 도포하게 된다. 이형박리제로는 전기가 잘 흐르면서 접착력이 낮은 이산화 셀렌이나 중크롬산이 주로 이용되지만, 원활한 박리를 위해서는 그 두께가 30 um 이상 확보되어야 하기 때문에 정밀한 미세구조 전주도금이 어렵다는 문제점이 있다. 또한 이와 같은 화학 약품들은 매우 유독하기 때문에 추가적인 폐수 처리 공정이 필요하며, 작업자의 안전을 위협하고 심각한 환경 오염을 초래한다는 추가적인 문제가 발생한다. 따라서, 매우 얇고 친 환경적이며 안전한 전주도금 이형박리제에 대한 연구가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전주도금 몰드로 사용한 구리의 표면에 TCVD를 이용하여 단일 층 그래핀을 성장시킨 후, 그래핀이 코팅된 몰드에 구리를 전주도금하여 박리하였다. 박리 후 그래핀은 몰드에 손상 없이 남아있는 것을 Raman microscopy를 통해서 확인하였고, 몰드와 그래핀 사이의 접착력 (약 $0.71J/m^2$)에 비해 그래핀과 전주도금 샘플간에 낮은 접착력 (약 $0.52J/m^2$)을 갖는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같이 낮은 접착력을 통해 박리 시 표면구조의 손상 없이 정밀한 구조의 미세 패턴구조를 형성할 수 있었다. 전주도금을 이용한 전극 형성과 고분자와의 융합을 통해 유연기판을 제작하여 bending 실험을 진행하였다. $90^{\circ}$의 bending 각도로 10000회 이하에서는 저항의 변화가 없었고, LED chip을 mounting한 후 곡률반경 4.5 mm까지 bending을 진행하여도 이상 없이 LED가 발광하는 것을 확인하였다. 위와 같은 전주도금 공정을 이용하여 고집적 전자기기, 광학기기, 센서기기 등의 다양한 어플리케이션의 부품제조에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Most of the reactions involving benzotriazoles as a synthetic auxiliary have been explained by ionic mechanisms, whereas benzotriazole-mediated radical reactions have received little attention. The reaction of 1-[(aryl)(phenylseleno)methyl]benzotriazole with $Bu_3$SnH in the presence of AIBN in benzene at reflux gave 2-aminodiphenyl selenide (16-29%), 2-aminobiphenyl (9-15%), diphenyl diselenide (30-93%), 1-(arylmethyl) benzotriazole (9-39%) and tributyltin-phenyl selenide (10-36%), whereas the compounds were treated with excess molar amount of $Bu_3$SnH in the absence of AIBN to afford N-(arylmethyl)anilines (44-66%) along with diphenyl diselenide (53-100%), benzotriazole (27-35%) and 1-(arylmethyl)benzotriazole (16-33%). Similarly, treatment of 6-aryl-6-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1-hexenyl phenyl selenides with $Bu_3$SnH in the presence of AIBN gave 6-aryl-6-phenylamino-1-hexene (9-31%) and 1-aryl-1-oxo-5-pentene (15-44%). A mechanism for the formation of the products is proposed.

This experiment was undertaken to investigate ana to compare the effect of vitamin E and selenium on the lipid composition in serum and liver of rats. Net weight gain and food efficiency ratio were elevated by supplementation with selenium and/or vitamin E. The weight of kidney, heart and lung were not affected by the diets. However, liver weight was slightly decreased by supplementation with vitamin E and/or selenium and spleen weight was significantly decreased only by vitamin I supplementation. No differences in serum level of total lipid were found in all groups. Serum cholesterol level was significantly decreased, but the levels of triglyceride and free fatty acid in serum were increased by vitamin E supplementation. Contents of crude lipid, cholesterol, free fatty acid, and triglyceride in liver were significantly decreased by supplementation with vitamin E and/or selenium. In fatty aicd composition of liver, the percentage of linoleic acid(18:2) was the lowest in the selenium-Supplemented group and the significantly lower percentage of arachidonic acid(20:4) was found in the vitamin E and/or selenium-supplemented group in comparision to the deficient basal group.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of methionine(Met) on the activities of brain lipid peroxidation related enzymes in ethanol administrated rats of selenium(Se) deficiency. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed Se deficiency diets containing one of the three levels of Met (0, 3, 9g/kg diet) and ethanol(2.5g/kg of body weight) was administrated as 25v/v% ethanol treated groups orally. The rats sacrificed after 5 and 10 weeks of feeding periods. Alcohol dehydrogenase activity was increased in ethanol treated groups and was higher Met normal group than Met deficiency and excessive groups at 5 and 10 weeks dieting. Aldehyde dehydrogenase activity was decreased in ethanol treated groups and significantly decreased in Met deficiency group. Monoamine oxidase activity in brain was increased in ethanol treated groups and was predominently increased in Met deficiency groups. Superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were decreased in ethanol treated groups and tended to increase in proportion to level of dietary methionine. Glutathione S-transferase and catalase activities and lipid peroxide content were increased by ethanol administration and were higher Met deficiency group than normal and excessive groups.

CIS 박막을 제조하기 위한 방법으로 셀렌화(selenization)방식, MOCVD방식, 동시진공증발(co-evaporation)방식, 전착(electrodeposition)방식 등이 있으나, 이러한 방식을 이용하여 CuInSe2 박막을 제조하는 경우 어떤 방법으로든 다원화합물의 조성 및 결정성을 조절하기가 매우 어려운 단점이 있었다. 기판의 온도를 일정 온도로 유지하도록 하고, 증발원을 가열하여 이에 내포된 물질(이원화합물 또는 단일원소)을 증발시켜 기판에 증착이 이루어지도록 하거나, 기판의 온도를 승온시키고 구리 이원화합물을 내포한 증발원을 가열해 물질을 증발시켜 기판에 증착이 이루어지도록 하는 방법으로 기판에 박막이 형성되도록 한다. 기판의 대면적화로 인해 균일한 박막의 형성이 어려워지고 있으며, 이중 15% 이상의 고효율을 보인 방법은 3-stage process를 이용한 동시진공증발방식으로, Cu, In, Ga, Se 등의 각 원소를 동시에 진공 증발시키면서 조성을 조절하여 태양전지에 적절한 전기적, 광학적 특성을 가지는 Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS)박막을 증착시키는 방법이다. 일반적으로, 실험실에서 연구되고 있는 장비의 구조는 증발원이 아래에 장착되어서 상향 증착되는 방식이다. 본 연구에서 사용된 장비는 하향 증발원이 측면에 장착되어서 하향 증착되는 방식으로 구성하였다. 증착되는 면방향으로, 적외선온도계(pyrometer)가 설치된 시창(viewport)의 오염 등으로 인하여, 지속적인 공정이 이루어지기 힘든 점을 개선하여 증착기판의 후면에 적외선 온도계를 설치하여 기판의 온도변화를 감지하여 공정에 반영할 수 있도록 하였다. 본 연구에서는 하향식 진공 증발원, 기판후면 온도모니터링모듈 등을 개발 장착하여, CIGS 박막을 제조하였으며, 버퍼층은 moving 스퍼터링법으로 ZnS를 증착하였고, 투명전극층은 PLD(Pulsed Laser Deposition)를 이용하여 제조하였다. 가장 높은 광변환효율을 보인 Al/ZnO/CdS/Mo/SLG박막시료는 유효면적 $0.45cm^2$에 광변환효율 15.65 %, Jsc : $33.59mA/cm^2$, Voc : 0.64 V, FF : 73.09 %를 얻을 수 있었으며, CdS를 ZnS로 대체한 Al/ZnO/ZnS/Mo/SLG박막시료는 유효면적 $0.45cm^2$에 광변환효율 12.45 %, Jsc : $33.62mA/cm^2$, Voc : 0.59 V, FF : 62.35 %를 얻을 수 있었다.

In the present study, a biomimetic alumina membrane was fabricated by using selenic acid as an electrolyte to overcome the asymmetry limit of the square pulse anodization process. The prepared membrane has conical channels with a minimum diameter of 10 nm, a maximum diameter of 50 nm, and a length of 5 ㎛. The rectification property was higher than membranes fabricated by sulfuric acid. It showed 2.9 times larger current at +1 V than -1 V. Also, the membrane, which sulfonic acid group was introduced by surface modification, showed 4.2 times larger rectification property at -1 V than +1 V. Theoretical verifications were supported by the numerical analyses of 2D models. The results of the present study present a convenient method to fabricate two type membranes with different rectification properties and are expected to be used to control ion transport.

The chalcopyrite $Cu(In_xGa_{(1-x)})Se_2$ (CIGS) is considered to be one of the effective light-absorbing materials for thin film photovoltaic solar cells. We describe the electrodeposition of CIGS thin films in ambient laboratory conditions, and suggest the electrochemical conditions to prepare stoichiometric CIGS thin films of Ga/(In + Ga) = 0.3. In acidic solutions containing $Cu^{2+}$, $In^{3+}$, $Ga^{3+}$ and $Se^{4+}$ ions, the CIGS films of different Cu/In/Ga/Se chemical compositions were electrodeposited onto Mo/Glass substrate. The structure, morphology and chemical composition of electrodeposited CIGS films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), respectively.

Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element for humans and animals, and several findings suggest that dietary Se intake may be necessary for bone health. Accumulating evidence indicates that Se compounds possess anticancer properties. Se is specifically incorporated into proteins in the form of selenocysteine and non-specifically incorporated as selenomethionine in place of methionine. This study evaluated protection by Se in the bone repair process in ovariectomized rats after irradiation. For such purpose, 80 ovariectomized female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 experimental groups: ovariectomized (Ov), Ov/Se, Ov/irradiated (Irr) and Ov/ Se/Irr. A bone defect was created on the tibia of all animals 40 days after ovariectomy. Two days after surgery, only the Ov/Se and Ov/Se/Irr rats received 0.8 mg Se/kg. Three days after surgery, only the Ov/Irr and Ov/Se/Irr rats received 10 Gy of X-rays on the lower limb region. The animals were euthanized at 7, 15, 22 and 29 days after surgery to assess the repair process, which was evaluated by analysis of trabecular bone number (Masson Trichrome) and birefringence analysis (Picrosirius). It was possible to observe a delay in the bone repair process in the ovariectomized/irradiated group and similarity between the ovariectomized, Ov/ Se and Ov/Se/Irr groups. Our findings suggest that sodium selenite may influence a radioprotective effect in the bone repair of tibia of ovariectomized rats without toxicity.
