다국적 제약회사에서 생산되는 제약화합물은 인간의 질병치료 뿐만 아니라 가축의 생산성을 향상시키는 물질으로도 활발하게 생산되는데 육우의 성장을 촉진하는 기능성 화합물들도 많이 있다. 북미에서 생산되는 소고기의 약 80%가 1번 이상의 성장촉진기술들이 활용되고 있다고 보고된다. 고기소로 생산되는 비육우에 적용되는 방법은 크게 피하 이식에 의해 혈류를 타고 성장을 촉진하는 17β-Estradiol과 합성 남성호르몬제인 Trenbolone acetate가 주로 활용되고, 비육후기 사료에 섞어서 급여하는 사료첨가제 형태인 β2-adrenergic agonist 같은 형태로 적용하게 된다. 근육을 성장하는 기술의 작용기전은 많은 선행연구에 의해 밝혀져 있는 반면 천연 알칼로이드 성분들의 기전은 밝혀진 것이 많지 않다. 한방제재들에서 많이 발견되는 알칼로이드 성분들은 생리활성 기능들을 가진 것으로 알려져 있지만, 생산, 수거, 가공, 추출 등의 공정에서 많은 비용이 발생하므로 비육우의 사료화 가능성은 아주 희박하다. 따라서 비용을 최소화 할 수 있는 후보재료를 검색중에 감자부산물을 확보하였고 기능성 물질의 추출과 사료첨가제 화 하여 비육우에 급여시험을 실시하였다. α-solanine과 α-chaconine은 감자의 잎, 과일 및 괴경에서 발견되는 글리코알칼로이드 화합물로, 쥐, 토끼, 닭과 같은 다양한 동물 모델에서 중독성을 가진 물질로 보고 되고 있다. 최근 연구에서는 비육우의 성능을 유도하는 데 사용되는 것으로 나타났다. 한우 송아지 3마리의 사태(Semimembranosus)와 등심(Longissimus Dorci)근육에서 추출된 근육위성 세포(BSC)에 다양한 수준의 α-solanine(control, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10μM)으로 처리해본 결과 근육관련 지표인 MHC2X과 β2-AR의 발현이 높게 나타난 것을 확인했다. 사료급여실험에서는 대조군에 비해 급여군의 등심단면적과 도체중이 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 감자유래 농산부산물은 한우 비육우의 근육의 성장을 증가시키고, 그 작용기전은 β2-수용체에 작용하여 단백질 합성을 촉진시켜 근육을 축적시키는 것으로 확인하였다. 농산부산물을 이용한 기능성 사료개발은 최근 이슈가 되고 있는 축산분야 탄소저감을 개선할 수 있는 기술로 축산의 업사이클링 기술로 활용 가능하다.

As the use of fossil fuels has gradually increased, so has the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, leading to environmental problems. As a result, lithium-ion batteries (LiB) have emerged as the solution to this issue. To manufacture medium to large-sized lithium-ion batteries (LiB), it requires electrodes with high capacity and fast charging capabilities. Silicon (Si) is considered a next-generation anode with high-capacity properties, so, reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was compounded with Si@resorcinol-formaldehyde resin (RF) composite to prevent the volume expansion of Si. It was confirmed that the composite anode prepared exhibited improved capacity and enhanced stability.

An amperometric sensor for measuring indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was studied based on a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) coated with a reduced graphene oxide composite electrocatalyst. The PEI-GO dispersion is uniformly formed through a nucleophilic substitution reaction between the active amine group of Polyethyleneimine (PEI) and the epoxide group exposed on the surface of graphene oxide. And The 3-dimensional PEI-rGO AG (Polyethyleneimine-reduced graphene oxide aerogel) complex was easily prepared through simple heat treatment of the combined PEI-GO dispersion. The proposed composite catalyst electrode, PEI-rGO AG/SPCE, showed a two linear relationship in the low and high concentrations in IAA detection, and the linear equation was I_pa = 0.2883C + 0.0883 (R²=0.9230) at low concentration and Ipa = 0.00464C + 0.6623 (R²=0.9894) at high concentration was proposed, and the detection limit was calculated to be 203.5nM±33.2nM. These results showed the applicability of the PEI-rGO AG composite catalyst as an electrode material for electrocatalysts for the detection of IAA.

As the production process for silicon-based integrated circuits approaches physical limits, a lot of attention is focused on the new semiconductor materials to overcome these problems. Carbon NanoTubes(CNTs) are attracting a lot of interest as one of the most competitive materials with excellent electrical transport and scaling properties, and CNTFETs using CNTs are gaining popularity as next-generation semiconductor devices. However, since the technology to place CNTs in a certain direction and interval on the wafer is not yet mature enough, it is difficult to construct all necessary circuits with CNTFET only. So, there is increasing interest in a hybrid configuration using MOSFET and CNTFET together. Because SRAM plays a role as a cache in microprocessors and is a critical circuit block influencing microprocessor performance, research to implement existing SRAM in a hybrid form is steadily progressing. Therefore, in this paper, we will explain the design method of hybrid 8T SRAM based on the existing hybrid 6T SRAM and discuss the performance difference between the two circuits.

Natural gases generally consist of mainly $^{12}C$ and about 1.1% of $^{13}C$. It is well known that a stable carbon isotope, $^{13}C$, has been widely used for the applications of medical, pharmaceutical, and agricultural tracers. As a result, the development of the separation and concentrating technology of $^{13}C$ can cause of high value-added products and the possibility of the generation of new carbon materials, In general, there are two kinds of approaches to obtain a stable $^{13}C$ isotope by the separation of cryogenic distillation. One is to obtain a concentrated $^{13}CH_4$ isotope from natural gas. Another approach is to get concentrated $^{13}CO$ by distillation followed by a chemical reaction of $CH_4$ and $H_2O$. In this study, rigorous process simulations of the cryogenic distillation have been performed and analyzed for the concentrated separation of $^{13}C$ isotopes from LNG and NG by using commercial process simulator. Due to the very small differences of relative volatilities and separabilities of $^{12}C$ and $^{13}C$, the process design and operation of effective separation and concentration of $^{13}C$ need special strategies and feasibility studies. Utilization of vapor pressure data to acentric factor in SRK equation of state and optimized process conditions have been able to predict for the effective of the separation yield and concentration of $^{13}C$ for the cryogenic distillation. The various operation strategies for both batch and continuous cryogenic distillation are also studied and suggested for the basic design of the process. Development of this study can provide a tool for the effective design and operation of the cryogenic separation of $^{13}C$.

A lab-scale batch test was conducted to develop capping materials to reduce the sediment phosphorus in the stagnant water zone of Gyeongancheon in Paldang Lake. The mean grain size(Mz) of sediment in the investigated area was 7.7 ${\phi}$, which is very fine, and the contents of organic carbon($C_{org}$) was 2.4%, which is very high. For the phosphorous release experiment to select the optimal capping material, sand layer, powder-gypsum($CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$), granule-gypsum, complex layer(gypsum+sand) and the control were compared and evaluated in the 150 L reactor for 45 days. In case of the capping with the sand, it was found that the phosphorous from the sediment could be reduced by around 50%. However, it was found that this caused the reduction of the dissolved oxygen in the water column(by less than 3 mg/L) due to the resuspension of sediment and the organic matter decomposition that comes from the generation of $CH_4$ gas in the 1 cm of the sand layer. Therefore, it is likely that the sand layer has to be thickener in case of the sand capping. Powder-gypsum and granule-Gypsum reduced phosphorous release by more than 80%. However, the concentration of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ in the water column increased, making it difficult to apply it to the drinking water protection zone. We developed Fe-Gypsum and $SiO_2$-gypsum materials to reduce the solubility of ${SO_4}^{2-}$. Powder-Gypsum creates the interception film that does not have any aperture on the sediment layer when it is combined with the water. However phosphorous release caused by the generation of $CH_4$ gas may happen at a time when the gypsum layer has the crack. Capping through the complex layer(granule-Gypsum+sand(1 cm)) found to be suitable for the drinking water protection zone because it was effective to prevent phosphorus release. Moreover, this leads to the lower solubility from the concentration of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ into the water column than the powder-Gypsum and granule-Gypsum. The addition of gypsum($CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$) into the sediment can reduce the progress of methanogensis because fast early diagenesis and sufficient supply of ${SO_4}^{2-}$ to the sediment, stimulate the SRB(sulfate reducing bacteria) highly.

The current status of domestic a agalmatolite mines in South Korea was investigated with a view to establishing a stable supply of agalmatolite and managing its demand. Most mined agalmatolite deposits were formed through hydrothermal alteration of Mesozoic volcanic rocks. The physical characteristics of pyrophyllite, the main constituent mineral of agalmatolite, are as follows: specific gravity 2.65~2.90, hardness 1~2, density 1.60~1.80 g/cm³, refractoriness ≥29, and color white, gray, grayish white, grayish green, yellow, or yellowish green. Among the chemical components of domestic agalmatolite, SiO₂ and Al₂O₃ contents are respectively 58.2~67.2 and 23.1~28.8 wt.% for pyrophyllite, 49.2~72.6 and 16.5~31.0 wt.% for pyrophyllite + dickite, 45.1 and 23.3 wt.% for pyrophyllite + illite, 43.1~82.3 and 11.4~35.8 wt.% for illite, and 37.6~69.0 and 19.6~35.3 wt.% for dickite. Domestic agalmatolite mines are concentrated mainly in the southwest and southeast of the Korean Peninsula, with some occurring in the northeast. Twenty-one mines currently produce agalmatolite in South Korea, with reserves in the order of Jeonnam (45.6%) > Chungbuk (30.8%) > Gyeongnam (13.0%) > Gangwon (4.8%), and Gyeongbuk (4.8%). The top 10 agalmatolite-producing mines are in the order of the Central Resources Mine (37.9%) > Wando Mine (25.6%) > Naju Ceramic Mine (13.4%) > Cheongseok-Sajiwon Mine (5.4%) > Gyeongju Mine (5.0%) > Baekam Mine (5.0%) > Minkyung-Nohwado Mine (3.3%) > Bugok Mine (2.3%) > Jinhae Pylphin Mine (2.2%) > Bohae Mine. Agalmatolite has low thermal conductivity, thermal expansion, thermal deformation, and expansion coefficients, low bulk density, high heat and corrosion resistance, and high sterilization and insecticidal efficiency. Accordingly, it is used in fields such as refractory, ceramic, cement additive, sterilization, and insecticide manufacturing and in filling materials. Its scope of use is expanding to high-tech industries, such as water treatment ceramic membranes, diesel exhaust gas-reduction ceramic filters, glass fibers, and LCD panels.

A bacterial strain producing extracellular mannanases was isolated from soil of chestnut tree farm located in Gongju city of Korea by enrichment culture using Avicel as a carbon source. 16S rDNA sequence of the isolate YB-43 was highly homologous to those of genus Cellulosimicrobium strains with sequence similarities of above 99.6%. Mannanase productivity was significantly increased when the Cellulosimicrobium sp. YB-43 was grown in the presence of locust bean gum (LBG) or konjac. The mannanases were partially purified to be mannanase A (ManA) and mannanase C (ManC) by DEAE-Sepharose column and Q-Sepharose column chromatography from the culture filtrate of Cellulosimicrobium sp. YB-43 grown in LB medium supplemented with 0.7% LBG for 24 h. The partially purified ManA showed the highest activity at $55^{\circ}C$ and pH 6.5, while ManC activity was optimal at $65^{\circ}C$ and pH 7.5. ManA was stable up to $40^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, but ManC activity decreased significantly even after 1 h at $20^{\circ}C$. ManA and ManC showed difference from each other according to their substrate specificities and predominant products resulting from the mannanase hydrolysis for mannooligosaccharides. As a result, Cellulosimicrobium sp. YB-43 was found to produce two different kinds of mannanases.
