This study was conducted to investigate the physiological activity of extracts of fresh mushrooms. The components were extracted by hot water; subsequently, the hot-water extract was subjected to 60% ethanol precipitation to yield high-molecular-weight (HMW) and low-molecular-weight (LMW) fractions. Total polyphenol contents, $\beta$-glucan contents, electron-donating ability (EDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activity, nitrite-scavenging activity, fibrinolytic activity, nitric oxide (NO) production, and inhibition of NO production of the mushroom extracts were measured using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated murine macrophages, RAW 264.7 cells. The extracts of Lentinus edodes (Berk.) Singer and Pleurotus ostreatus (Fr.) Kummer contained the highest levels of $\beta$-glucan (33.5% and 25.57%, respectively). Further, the LMW fractions of the Phellinus linteus contained the highest levels of polyphenols (233.23 mg/g). The EDA of LMW fractions (10 mg/mL) of the Phellinus linteus and Agaricus bisporus were 80.74% and 51.35%, respectively. Further, SOD-like activities of the LMW fractions were high as compared to those of the HMW fractions. Nitrite-scavenging activities of the LMW fractions (pH 1.2; concentration, 10 mg/mL) of the Phellinus linteus and Pleurotus ostreatus (Fr.) Kummer were 75.95% and 41.05%, respectively. The fibrinolytic activity of the LMW fractions of all mushrooms showed no enzyme activity by fibrin plate assay. The fibrinolytic activity of the extracts of Tricholoma matsutake was the greatest inhibitory activity at 60.4%. Further study revealed that the mushroom extracts exhibited anti-inflammatory effects on RAW 264.7 cells. The LMW fraction ($500\;{\mu}g/mL$) of the Phellinus linteus considerably inhibited NO production (100%).

Successful root canal treatment can be obtained by the removal of microorganisms from the pulpal space of the root canal system through biomechanical technique with instruments and irrigation. Due to the difference in the dimension of the pulpal structure such as thin wall of the root, large portion of chamber, the primary teeth should be considered in a different way of approach. Traditionally, fluids have been dispensed passively into the root canals for improve the cleansing. The use of sodium hypochlorite as an irrigant in root canal treatment is widespread and common, because it meets requirements for the ideal irrigants.

산업공정에서 널리 사용하는 반응기는 성질이 상이한 물질을 혼합하는 시스템으로서 본 연구에서는 이젝터(ejector)에 의한 반응기의 개발을 수행하였다. 액체-가스 이젝터는 구동유체에 의하여 기체가 흡입되면서 각종 유해가스를 제거하는 목적 또는 기체와 액체의 혼합 등 목적으로 사용된다. 본 실험에서 액체구동 가스혼합반응기의 실험 장치를 구축하고 이젝터 내부의 유동패턴과 기체용해도 자료를 도출하며 고효율 이젝터 설계를 위한 진공도 측정과 디퓨저 각도가 다른 이젝터의 실험 및 수치해석을 수행하였다. 이젝터의 성능은 흡입 측에서의 진공압력으로 평가되며 이 진공압력은 이젝터의 노즐 설계 및 유동조건에 의하여 결정되므로 이에 대한 기본적인 특성 도출이 선결되어야 한다. 순환유체의 유량이 70LPM, 80LPM 90LPM조건에서 두 가지 디퓨저에 대하여 비교실험을 수행하였다. 실험적 연구와 수치해석연구를 통하여 혼합성능과 이젝터의 내부유동특성에 대하여 고찰한 결과 디퓨저의 각도가 5.0도일 때 진공도가 더욱 높으며 구동액체의 유량이 작을 때는 진공도차이가 크지만 유량이 증가함에 따라 진공도 차이가 감소된다. 구동액체의 유량이 증가할수록 용존산소농도는 증가하며 디퓨저의 각도가 5.0도일 때는 용존산소 농도가 더 높게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

A novel oxidant generation and ion precipitation cell with slits on parallel plate electrodes was proposed instead of the conventional parallel plate type. An investigation was carried out on the effect of the number and size of slits on ion precipitation and oxidant generation characteristics, evidenced by eliminated space charge limiting action and by elevated electric fields in active interelectrode sparing. Consequently, very high ion precipitation and dense oxidant generation characteristics can be realized by having slits un the electrodes of conventional cells as these slits increase the electric fields and decrease the space charge limiting actions in interelectrode spacing.

유기물을 이용하여 제작한 비휘발성 메모리 소자는 저전압 구동, 간단한 공정과 플렉서블 모바일에 응용 가능성 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 나노복합체를 사용하여 제작한 비휘발성 메모리 소자의 전기적 특성에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되었으나 고분자를 저장매체로 사용한 메모리 소자의 전기적 특성에 대한 연구는 미흡하다. 본 연구에서 poly (methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)와 poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) 혼합한 용액을 이용하여 제작한 메모리 소자의 전기적 특성을 연구하였다. P3HT와 PMMA를 같이 클로로벤젠에 용해한 후 초음파 교반기를 사용하여 두 물질을 고르게 섞었다. Indium-tin-oxide가 코팅된 유리 기판 위에 제작한 고분자 용액을 스핀 코팅하고, 열을 가해 용매를 제거하였다. P3HT박막 위에Al을 상부전극으로 열증착하여 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 전류-전압(I-V) 측정결과는 같은 전압에서 전도도가 큰 ON 상태와 전도도가 작은 OFF 상태의 큰 ON/OFF 전류비율을 가진 전류의 히스테리시스를 보여주었다. P3HT를 포함하지 않은 소자의 I-V 측정결과는 전류의 히스테리시스 특성이 보이지 않았고 이것은 P3HT 박막이 메모리 특성을 나타내는 저장매체가 됨을 알 수 있었다. 소자의 전류-시간 특성 측정 결과는 전류의 ON/OFF 비율이 시간에 따라 큰 감쇠 현상 없이 오랫동안 지속적으로 유지됨을 보여줌으로 소자의 동작 안정성을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, Mo metal powder was prepared by hydrogen reduction of Mo trioxides with different purity of 2N and 3N grades. We have obtained Mo metal powder with oxygen content of 1450 ppm by hydrogen reduction and subsequent heat treatment for degassing. Using the Mo metal powder, a low-oxygen Mo ingot was prepared by repetitive vacuum arc melting. The oxygen content of the obtained Mo ingot was less than 70 ppm after vacuum arc melting for 30 min. The purity of the Mo metal powder and the ingot was evaluated using glow discharge mass spectrometry. The purity of the respective Mo ingots was increased to 3N and 4N grades from the Mo powder of 2N and 3N grades after the repetitive vacuum arc melting. The low oxygen Mo ingot thus can be used as a raw material for sputtering targets.

Low-salinity water based polymerflooding (LSPF) is one of promising enhanced oil recovery (EOR) method that has the synergetic effect of combining polymer injection method and low-salinity water injection method. In order to maximize EOR efficiency, it is essential to design low-salinity water appropriately considering the properties of polymer. In this aspect, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of pH and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ ion which one of PDI (Potential Determining Ion) on oil production when applying LSPF to carbonate oil reservoir. First, the stability and adsorption of polymer molecule were analyzed in different pH of injection water and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ concentration in injection water. As a result, regardless of pH and $SO_4{^{2-}}$ concentration, when $SO_4{^{2-}}$ ion was contained in injection water, the stability of polymer solution was obtained. However, from the result of polymer retention analysis, in neutral state of injection water, since $SO_4{^{2-}}$ interfered the adsorption of polymer, the adsorption thickness of polymer was thinner as $SO_4{^{2-}}$ concentration was higher. On the other hand, when injection water was acidic as pH 4, the amount of polymer adsorption increased with the injection of polymer solution, so the mobility of polymer solution was greatly lowered. From the results of wettability alteration due to low-salinity water effect, in the case of neutral injection water injected, as $SO_4{^{2-}}$ concentration was increased, more oil which attached on rock surface was detached, altering wettability from oil-wet to water-wet. On the other hand, in acidic condition, due to complex effect of rock dissolution and polymer adsorption, wettability of the entire core system was less altered relatively to neutral condition. Therefore, it was evaluated that better EOR efficiency was obtained when injecting low-salinity water based polymer solution containing high concentration of $SO_4{^{2-}}$ with neutral condition, enhancing the oil production up to 12.3% compared to low-salinity water injection method.

physicochemical properties of rice starch isolated from eight varieties were examined to evaluate the rice processing suitability The amylose contents of rice starch were varied with 16.7-29.7%, and IR 30, Godael, Aguja and Lengkwang varieties showed higher amylose content than the other varieties. The water binding capacity and blue value were in the range of 87.0 103.0 and 0.178-0.305, respectively. As the amylose content increased, the amylogram pasting temperature and the break down ratio increased, while the peak viscosity did not show any significant difference. The transmittance of 0.1% starch suspension slowly increased at $50^{\circ}C$ in the low-amylose content rice group, and rapidly increased at $65^{\circ}C$ in the high-amylose content rice group, but there were no differences above $75^{\circ}C$ among varieties. Also the low-amylose rice starch showed higher values in the swelling power and solubility. The hardness of the 30% rice starch gels was low in low-amylose one. During storage at $20^{\circ}C$ for 14 days, the increment of hardness was more slow in high-amylose one. The retrogradation velocity constant of rice starch gel by Avrami equation was the highest as 0.219 in Aguja variety.

Alginate obtained from brown algae had various physicochemical and rheological properties and could used as a dietary fiber, However, alginate has not been widely applied to the food industry, since it had high viscosity, high gelling effect conjugated with some mineral, and low solubility. To improve functionality of alginate, partially develymerized alginates, which was water-soluble dietary fiber were obtained by hydrolysis of alginate from the sea tangle, Laminaria japonicus, heated at $121^{\circ}C$. Effects of depolymerization of alginate on the changes of viscosity and average molecular weight, block composition ratio of mannuronate to guluronate (M/G ratio), chemical properties using $PT-IR, ^1H-NMR, and ^(13)C-NMR$ spectrum were investigated. The average molecular weight and viscosity of the alginate were rapidly decreased with the thermal decomposition, and estimated to be 1,307,415 dalton and 284,000 cps, before heating, 728,106 and 3,940.29 cps after 30 min heating, 102,635 and 22.22 cps after 2.5 hrs heating, 51,205 and 12.05 cps after 3 hrs, and 10,049 and 4.28 cps after 6.5 hrs, respectively. The M/G ratio was increased with the heating time, while MM-block did not show any changes and GG-block diminished. The results of $FT-IR, ^1H-NMR and ^(13)C-NMR$ spectrum suggested that changes of molecular structure did not occur by the thermal decomposition.
