In this study, we investigated effects of Monegy (mixture of Sophorae Radix, Panax ginseng, Salvia miltiorrhiza BUNGE) on epilate-induced hair-loss in dorsal region of C57/BL6 mice and external structure of human hair. For morphological and histological analysis in scalp of epilate-induced hair-loss animal model, we utilized several microscopic techniques, such as confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and LAS 4000. Confocal analysis showed the distribution of FITC-conjugated Monegy and penetration depth compared with normal and control group. Furthermore, when Monegy was topically administrated onto a C57BL6 mouse, it penetrated very well. The fluorescence intensity was increased upto 205 and 113 folds compared to normal and control group, respectively. Also, area of fluorescence was increased to upto 255 to 127 folds compared to normal and control group. Broad scale area of fluorescence in dermis region was observed in the Monegy-treated mice. Furthermore, Monegy induced upto 75% hair repair against depilation. It might be promoted via the induction of growth factors in hair follicle.

마이크로, 나노유체 (micro-, nanofluidics)을 이용한 종이 기반 분석 소자 (paper-based analytical devices, micro-PADs)에 대한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 종이 기반의 분석 소자는 초저가의 비용과 간단한 공정 방법으로 인하여 상용화 컨셉의 바이오센서로 각광받고 있다. 하지만, 종이 기반의 분석 소자는 낮은 검출 한계 (limit of detection, LOD)와 민감도 (sensitivity)의 제한이 있다. 그로 인해 우리는 이온 선택적 투과층 (ion permselective membrane, i.e. Nafion)을 종이 기반의 분석 소자와 결합하여 이온 농도 분극 (ion concentration polarization, ICP) 현상을 구현하여 낮은 검출한계와 민감도를 개선할 수 있었다. 접착력이 있는 테이프 표면에 이온 선택적 투과층을 패터닝 (patterning)하여 종이 기반 분석 소자와 결합하여 매우 간단하게 소자를 제작할 수 있었다. 따라서 종이 기반의 채널 양단에 직류 전압을 인가했을 때 발생하는 ICP 현상으로 인하여 형광 물질 (fluorescence dye)이 농축(preconcentration)되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 구체적으로, 초기 농도가 1.55 nM인 형광 물질을 이용하여 200 V의 외부전압을 인가했을 때, 500 초 이내에 1000 배 이상의 농축비를 얻을 수 있었다. 따라서, 외부 전압을 상용화된 건전지 출력값으로 낮출 수 있다면 다양한 종이 기반 분석 소자와 간단한 결합 방법을 통해 상용화 컨셉의 바이오센서로도 구현이 가능할 것이다.

The extractions of aqueous Eu3+ and Tb3+ ions into ethylacetate or dichloromethane were conducted by using 12-crown-4, 15-crown-5 and 18-crown-6 ethers as ligand. Benzoate ion was selected as counter anion for the complexes formed between the lanthanide ions and crown ethers. Fluorescence spectra of the lanthanide ions induced by the energy transfer from benzoate anion to the cations were also measured. The quantitative analysis of the lanthanide ions extracted into organic phase were made on the basis of the results of fluorescence. The measured extractivity is interpreted in terms of the ion-dipole interaction.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 넓은 시야각, 얇은 두께의 특성으로 차세대 디스플레이 소자 기술로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 백색 조명 광원 관련 기술은 친환경 에너지와 관련하여 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 청색과 황색의 유기물층을 적층하여 제작한 백색 유기발광소자는 서로 다른 두 유기물질의 계면 불균일로 인한 효율 저하와 형광 여기자의 수명과 유기물의 두께 상관관계에 따라 색안정성이 나빠지는 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 고분자 poly (2-methoxy-5-(2'-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylenevinylene (MEH-PPV)와 polystyrene (PS) 혼합물을 스핀코팅 방법을 사용하여 박막을 형성한 후 열처리에 의한 상분리 현상을 이용하여 선택적으로 PS 물질을 제거하여 MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 발광층을 형성하여 황색 고분자 발광층의 표면 성질 변화를 관찰하였다. 고분자 MEH-PPV와 PS의 혼합 비율과 혼합층 두께에 따른 MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 박막의 변화를 원자힘 현미경을 통하여 관찰할 수 있었다. MEH-PPV 황색 고분자 발광층의 표면 특성은 MEH-PPV와 PS 혼합물의 PS 혼합비가 높아지면 표면거칠기가 작아지며, 혼합된 두 고분자 물질의 분자량의 차이에 의한 응집도의 차이로 인하여 MEH-PPV와 PS 혼합물 박막의 두께가 얇아지면 표면거칠기가 커진다. 이 연구 결과는 고분자-저분자 혼합 발광층 구조를 사용하는 백색 유기발광소자의 효율 향상에 대한 기초자료로 활용할 수 있다.

The absorption of blood onto the surfaces of white cotton, polyester, rayon, and nylon fabrics was studied. Different categories of fabrics (woven and knitted) with diverse thickness, were manually folded twice to obtain four fabric layers, and $100{\mu}L$ of human blood was dropped onto the surface of the fabrics. The amount of blood that penetrated the fabric layer and the shape of bloodstain observed on the fabrics were influenced by the chemistry, thickness, and texture of the fabric. The blood bearing fabrics were left to dry for 3 days, washed by hand using tap water, and Lumiscene was then sprayed onto the fabrics to enhance the latent bloodstain for comparison of the shape of the bloodstain before and after washing by hand. The features of the bloodstain after washing varied greatly with the recipient fabrics. Additionally, stronger luminescence was observed at the surface where the blood was deposited compared to the background. However, it was confirmed that physical contact during the washing can deform the original shape of the bloodstain. The effect of the drying time on the bloodstain after hand washing was also studied. $100{\mu}L$ of blood was dropped on the surfaces of the fabrics and dried for 0, 1, 12, 24, 72 h, and 7 days, then washed by hand, before the bloodstain was enhanced with Lumiscene. The results of this experiment indicated that the increased drying time induces stronger chemiluminescence of Lumiscene. However, after drying of the bloodstain for 7 days, the luminescence of the bloodstain was decreased at the blood deposited site and increased around the blood deposited site.

The collective behavior of bacteria plays an important role in biofilm development. In this study, the fluidic properties of biofilms formed in Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) colonies were compared by visualizing 200-nm fluorescent beads that were initially embedded in an agar plate and distributed spontaneously on the upper surface of the growing colonies. We conducted experiments to measure the three-dimensional profile of the E. coli colony using fluorescent microbeads that did not flow in the colony. Vortical flow patterns near the edge of the B. subtilis colony were observed clearly by tracking the movement of the beads in the biofilm of the colony. The present study should be the first step toward determining the effect of fluidic biofilms on the growth and swarming dynamics of bacteria.

유기 발광 소자는 낮은 구동전압, 낮은 소비전력, 높은 명암비, 넓은 시야각 및 빠른 응답속도의 장점을 가지고 있기 때문에 전색 디스플레이에서 각광을 받고 있다. 고효율의 청색 유기 발광 소자를 제작하기 위해서 다양한 구조를 제작하고 있지만, 적색 및 녹색 유기 발광 소자에 비해 낮은 효율, 색 순도의 저하 및 짧은 수명으로 인한 문제점을 갖고 있기 때문에 이를 해결하기 위한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 발광층내에 호스트 물질로 1.3-Bis(carbazol-9-yl) benzene (mCP)와 2-t-butyl-9,10-di-2-naphthylanthracene (TBADN)을 혼합하였고, 형광 도펀트인 4,40-Bis[4-(diphenylamino)styryl]biphenyl (BDAVBi) 또는 인광 도펀트인 bis(3,5-difluoro-2-(2-pyridyl) phenyl-(2-carboxypyridyl)iridium III (FIrpic)을 혼합한 발광층을 사용한 유기 발광 소자를 제작하여 전기적인 특성과 발광 효율을 관찰하였다. 유기 발광 소자의 정공 수송층 N,N,'-bis-(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl1-1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (NPB)와 정공 저지층 3-Benzidino-6-(4-chlorophenyl) pyridazine (BCP) 사이에 호스트 mCP와 도펀트 TBADN：BDAVBi를 혼합한 발광층의 혼합비율을 최적화 할 때 구동전압이 낮고, 발광효율이 증가됨을 확인하였다. 호스트 mCP에 도펀트를 혼합한 발광층에서는 호스트로 mCP 또는 TBADN만 사용하였을 때보다 전계발광 스펙트럼의 최대치가 청색 영역에서 나타남을 확인하였다. Commission Internationale de l'Eclairage (CIE) 측정을 통해, 호스트 mCP와 도펀트 TBADN : BDAVBi의 최적화된 혼합비에서 전압의 변동에 따른 CIE 값이 매우 안정적임을 확인하였다.

Conventional LED displays use pixels which consist of red, green and blue LEDs of different operation voltages and degradation characteristics. Thus, the circuits are complicated and the display of each color changes independently with the operated time. In order to solve these drawbacks, an LED chip of a short wavelength and an LED lamp with the mixture of red, green, blue fluorescencers and epoxy on the LED chip were studied. The fluorescencers are excited by the light of the LED chip. The LED chip has an active layer of InGaN, a peak wavelength of 408 nm, a FWHM of 13 nm and the CIE index of (0.198, 0.087). White LED lamps were obtained and the CIE index change was observed with the change of the epoxy amount added to the fluorescencers.

Organic dye-doped silica nanoparticles are used as a promising nanomaterials for bio-labeling, bio-imaging and bio-sensing. Fluorescent silica nanoparticles(NPs) have been synthesized by the modified $St{\ddot{o}}ber$ method. In this study, dye-free fluorescent silica NPs of various sized were synthesized by Sol-Gel process as the modified $St{\ddot{o}}ber$ method. The functional material of APTES((3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane) was added as an additive during the Sol-Gel process. The as-synthesized silica NPs were calcined at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours. The surface morphology and particle size of the as-synthesized silica NPs were characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy. The fluorescent characteristics of the as-synthesized silica NPs was confirmed by UV lamp irradiation of 365 nm wavelength. The photoluminescence (PL) of the as-synthesized silica NPs with different size was analyzed by fluorometry. As the results, the as-synthesized silica NPs exhibits same blue fluorescent characteristics for different NPs size. Especially, as increased of the silica NPs size, the intensity of PL was decreased. The blue fluorescence of dye-free silica NPs was attributed to linkage of $NH_2$ groups of the APTES layer and oxygen-related defects in the silica matrix skeleton.
