In this study, a high sensitive giant magnetoresistance-spin valve (GMR-SV) bio-sensing device with high linearity and very low hysteresis was fabricated by photolithography and ion beam deposition sputtering system. Detection of the Fe-hemoglobin inside in a red blood and magnetic nanoparticles using the GMR-SV bio-sensing device was investigated. Here a human's red blood includes hemoglobin, and the nanoparticles are the Co-ferrite magnetic particles coated with a shell of amorphous silica which the average size of the water-soluble bare cobalt nanoparticles was about 9 nm with total size of about 50 nm. When 1 mA sensing current was applied to the current electrode in the patterned active GMR-SV devices with areas of $5x10{\mu}m^2 $ and $2x6{\mu}m^2 $, the output signals of the GMRSV sensor were about 100 mV and 14 mV, respectively. In addition, the maximum sensitivity of the fabricated GMR-SV sensor was about $0.1{\sim}0.8%/Oe$. The magnitude of output voltage signals was obtained from four-probe magnetoresistive measured system, and the picture of real-time motion images was monitored by an optical microscope. Even one drop of human blood and nanopartices in distilled water were found to be enough for detecting and analyzing their signals clearly.

$\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticles have been prepared by a sol-gel method. The structural and magnetic properties have been investigated by XRD, VSM and Mossbauer spectroscopy. $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ powder annealed at $150^{\circ}C$ has a spinel structure and superparamagnetical behavior. The estimated size of superparammagnetic $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticle is around 7 nm. The hyperfine fields at $-261^{\circ}C$ for the A and B patterns were found to be 503 and 485 kOe, respectively. The blocking temperature ($T_B$) of superparammagnetic $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticle is about $-183^{\circ}C$. The magnetic anisotropy constant of $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticle was calculated to be $1.6{\times}10^6ergs/cm^3$. $\gamma-Fe_2O_3$ nanoparticle annealed at $150^{\circ}C$ can be a candidate for biomedicine applications as magnetic carriers.

제지산업은 다량의 용수를 사용하면서 또한 많은 양의 폐수를 배출하고 있다. 기존의 폐수처리 공정에서는 침전처리를 위한 큰 저수조와 오랜 침강 시간이 요구되어 제한된 공장 내에서의 처리에 어려움이 많다. 이러한 기존 기술의 문제점을 보완하면서도 새로운 고도처리가 가능한 초전도 마그네트를 이용한 자기분리 기술을 적용하고자 하였다. 자기문리의 기본 원리는 강력한 자기력에 의하여 액체에 포함된 자성입자를 분리해내는 것으로 자성입자들이 자계의 힘에 의하여 잡아당겨지고 포획됨으로서 제거되는 것이다. 자기분리용 솔레노이드 마그네트로 초전도마그네트를 적용하게 되면 아주 높은 고구배의 자장(HGMS; High Gradient Magnetic Separation) 을 발생시킬 수 있다. 초전도마그네트와 체(sieve) 형 자기필터를 이용하면 대공간에 전력손실 없이 고자장을 발생시킬 수 있기 때문에 미립자를 효과적으로 고속으로 분리하는 것이 가능해지며 또한 상자성 미세입자까지도 처리할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 주로 유기물로 구성된 제지며|수의 부유물을 자성체와의 응집반응에 의해 플록을 형성하여 자성 플록의 자기분리 효과를 연구하였다. 자성응집반응의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 전자석 시스템을 제작하였으며 배치타입의 자기필터를 설계 제작하였다. 또한 응집제의 종류와 응집반응 공정에 따른 자성플록의 형성 정도를 조사하였으며 자기분리 후 폐수의 탁도, SS 등의 특성을 분석하였다. 그림 1은 자성응집반응의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 제작한 전자석 시스템을 나타내고 있으며 전자석의 자장해석 결과를 보이고 있다.

The composites of expanded graphite oxide and magnetic nanoparticle (Ni and Co) were synthesized by using simple chemical method. From the raw material natural graphite, the expanded graphite was fabricated using sulfuric acid and $1^{st}$ heat treatment at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The expanded graphite was changed to expanded graphite oxide by 2nd heat treatment at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 15 sec and chemical oxidation. The expanded graphite oxide/1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solution reacts with the magnetic nanoparticle to form a magnetic graphite oxide composite. These graphite-based materials were characterized by x-ray diffractometer, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope, and vibration sample magnetometer. We expect that these results of this paper were become basis research of graphite oxide composite.

21세기를 선도할 기술로 전 세계적으로 각광을 받고 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있는 분야는 나노기술(W), 생명공학기술(BT), 정보통신기술(IT)이라고 할수 있다. 우리나라에서도 최근 이에 대한 연구 및 교육 지원 프로그램을 세워 법정부적으로 지원을 하고 있다. 특히 나노기술은 다른 분야와의 기술융합이 가장 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이러한 분야들은 우리나라와 같이 부존자원이 매우 적은 나라로써는 세계열강과 경쟁하기 위한 새로운 돌파구로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 고에서는 신기술 분야 중에서 나노기술과 생명공학기술의 접목분야로써 자성 나노입자의 생의학적 응용(biomedical applications)에 대하여 알아보고자 한다.

The objective of this study is numerically analyzed the behavior characteristics of the magnetic fluid in a closed rectangular container using finite element method (FEM). The governing equations are solved with magnetization and Maxwell equations for consideration of rotating effect of the magnetite particle. Then the discretized equations are solved with boundary conditions of the velocity and temperature. The developed model is validated with the results of Davis (1983) and Fusegi et al. (1991) has a good agreement within 5.5 % and 2.7 %, respectively.

The surface of magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (${\gamma}-Fe_2O_3$) is functionalized ($-NH_2$, -COOH) with bifunctional organic molecules and evaluated using FT-IR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy). We immobilize 21-base pair probe DNA and hybridize fluorescence-labeled (Cy5) target DNA onto the functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles. The fluorescence images obtained from a confocal microscopy show that the functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles should detect the hybridization of complementary and noncomplementary DNA.

The chemical engrafting of polymers on particle surface, plays an important role on selective partitioning of micro/nano-particles in the separated layers of liquid media, such as aqueous two phase systems (ATPSs). Three polymers, dextran, poly (ethylene glycol) and albumin were chosen and chemically conjugated to the polystyrene (PS) magnetic microparticle surface. The attachment of long-chained polymer chains which may switch the partition behavior, can be simply performed by S_N2 substitution of various polymers having primary amine functional groups, with p-toluenesulfonyl (tosyl)-activated polystyrene magnetic micro-particles. The surface modification of microparticle was probed by infrared microscopy. The distinctive peak represents N-H stretching vibration mode for microparticles after the reaction and it is common for all three polymers examined. The locations of main peaks are similar for all micro-particles but different and distinguishable in fingerprint region.
