In this study, we investigated the separability of vanadium and tungsten from spent SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) catalyst leach solution by reduction of vanadium and solvent extraction using Alamine 336 and conducted experiments to optimize process conditions. It is difficult to separate vanadium and tungsten due to their similar chemical behavior, but tungsten can be selectively extracted from acidic solution when vanadium extraction is prevented by reducing anionic pentavalent vanadium to cationic tetravalent vanadium. The results showed that NaHSO₃ was most suitable as a reducing agent, and the extraction efficiency of vanadium decreased and the separation efficiency increased as the amount of reducing agent added, reaction time, and temperature increased. When reducing NaHSO₃ 1.5 eq, 60 min, and 60℃, which are optimal conditions of reduction, vanadium and tungsten were effectively separated with vanadium extraction efficiency of 5.8%, tungsten extraction efficiency of 99%, and separation factor of vanadium and tungsten of 7,564.

SiH$_{4}$환원에 의한 selective CVD-W 공정에서 SiH$_{4}$ 유속의 W막 특성에 대한 효과를 조사하였다. 0.7$_{4}$/SW$_{2}$(=R)<0.9에서 .betha.-W이 나타나기 시작하여 SiH$_{4}$ 유속의 증가에 따라 .betha.-W의 함량은 게속 증가한다. W막의 표면 형태도 SiH$_{4}$유속의 증가에 따라 나뭇잎 모양(R<0.5), 흐릿하고 불안정한 모양(0.70.9에서는 주상의 결정립을 나타낸다. R.leq.0.7에서는 .alpha.-W만 존재하다가 0.7$_{4}$유속의 증가에 따라 증착속도와 W막의 정기저항이 증가한다. 특히, R.geq.0.9에서 전기저항이 급증한다. SiH$_{4}$유속의 증가에 따라 선택성이 악화되며 특히 1.1

목적: 이 실험의 목적은 한국 백삼과 캐나다 백삼의 일반 성분 분석, 항산화력 측정 및 치아 우식 유발균에 미치는 항균 효과를 비교 분석하는데 있다. 방법: 한국 백삼과 캐나다 백삼의 일반 성분은 수분정량, 조지방, 조단백질, 그리고 조회분의 분야에서 측정되었다. 두 백삼을 60% 에탄올에 추출시켜 환원당과 DPPH-scavenging assay를 통해 항산화력을 측정했다. 동일 추출물을 이용, 치아 우식균인 streptococcus mutans에 대해 디스크 확산법과 최소저해농도 측정을 실시해 항균력을 측정 및 비교했다. 결과: 실험 결과, 한국 백삼과 캐나다 백삼은 유사한 조지방, 조단백질, 조회분 성분을 갖고 있었으나 수분정량에서 캐나다백삼이 우세했다. 항산화력 실험에서는 캐나다 백삼이 DPPH- scavenging 능력에서 더 높았으나 환원당 실험과 총 페놀 함량에서는 한국 백삼의 수치가 더 높았다. 디스크 확산법을 통한 항균력 실험에서는 한국 백삼이 캐나다 백삼보다 더 넓은 clearing zone을 형성하고 더 낮은 최소저해농도를 달성해 항균력에서 우세했다. 결론: 한국 백삼과 캐나다 백삼은 비슷한 일반성분과 항산화력을 가졌다. 하지만 한국백삼이 치아 우식 유발균인 streptococcus mutans에 대한 항균력에서 더 우세했다.

본 연구에서는 유입량의 불확실성을 고려하여 미래 저수량을 확률론적으로 예측하였다. 월별 유입량을 표본으로 한 확률밀도함수를 핵밀도함수(kernel function)를 이용하여 추정하고, 추정된 확률분포로 월별 유입량을 모의 발생하였다. 모의 발생된 유입량을 통해 연속적인 조건부 확률을 산정하였고, 이의 누적확률분포(F(x))는 해당 저수량에 도달하지 못할 확률, 즉 실패확률을 의미하므로 1-F(x)로 해당 저수량 이상을 확보할 수 있는 확률을 산정하였다. 보령댐을 대상으로 분석한 결과 2016년 2월 말 저수량 27.8 백만$m^3$ 기준으로 3월부터 6월까지 정상용수공급환원 기준 저수량을 만족할 확률이 각각 2.3%, 12.5%, 24.2%, 33.5%로 나타났다. 지역적 가뭄에 대응하기 위해 하천유지용수 감량, 용수 대체공급, 자율 급수조정 및 금강-보령댐 도수로를 이용한 용수공급으로 20.6만$m^3/day$의 용수가 비축될 경우, 정상용수공급환원 기준 저수량을 만족할 확률이 10.2%, 40.3%, 73.8%, 78.7%로 용수비축의 효과가 크게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다. 저수량의 확률론적 예측을 통해 미래 저수량의 확률적 발생가능성을 추정할 수 있으며, 가뭄이 발생할 경우, 가뭄 대응효과를 정량적으로 나타낼 수 있어 가뭄 위험 상황 전달 및 용수공급조정 의사결정 시 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The radioprotective effects of white ginseng and Entomopathogenic Fugi Extract on liver damage induced by X-ray were investigated. To one group of ICR male mice were given white ginseng(150 mg/kg/day for 7days, orally) and Entomopathogenic Fugi (200 mg/kg/day for 7days, orally) before X-ray irradiation. To another group were irradiated by 5 Gy(1.01 Gy/min) dose of X-ray. Contrast group were given with saline(0.1 ml). The levels of reduced(GSH) and oxidized(GSSG) glutathione in liver tissue were measured. The ratio of GSSG/total GSH was significantly decreased in the white ginseng and Entomopathogenic Fugi (200 mg/kg/day)(150 mg/kg/day) groups than irradiation group.

Vapor-phase ETBE(ethyl tert-butyl ether) synthesis from TBA(tert-butyl alcohol) and ethanol was carried over solid acid catalysts such as heteropoly acids and proton type zeolites. Heteropoly acids were more active than proton type zeolites and $H_4SiW_{12}O_{40}$ catalyst showed about the same activity as Amberlyst-15 ion exchange resin catalyst used as an industrial catalyst in ETBE synthesis. The catalytic activity of transition metal exchanged heteropoly acids was greatly enhanced, because new acid site was generated with hydrogen reduction. This effect of hydrogen reduction was related to the reduction characteristics of catalysts and the order of reducibility was $Ag^+$>$Cu^{2+}$>$Fe^{2+}$.

NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is a flavoprotein that catalyzes the two electron reduction of diverse substrates, including quinones. It uses NADH or NADPH as a cofactor for enzymatic machinery. In the metabolism of quinones, NQO1 has two conflicting functions because of the different stability of converted hydroquinones. The stable form of hydroquinone is excreted from cells by conjugation with glutathione or glucuronic acid. The unstable form of hydroquinone induces cell death by induction of oxidative stress and DNA damage. Certain quinones known as bio-reductive agents have a cytotoxic function following reduction by NQO1. Bio-reductive agents, such as ${\beta}$-lapachone or mitomycin C, induce the depletion of NAD(P)H and the generation of oxidative stress in an NQO1-dependent manner. NQO1 is highly expressed in several cancer tissues. Therefore, NQO1 is a good therapeutic target for cancer treatment with bio-reductive agents.

As common pollutants in surface and groundwater, nitrate nitrogen($NO_3-N$) and trichloroethylene(TCE) can be chemically and biologically reduced by zero valent iron(ZVI) and peat soil. In batch microcosm experiments, chemical reduction of TCE and nitrate was supported by hydrogen from ZVI. For biological degradation of TCE and denitrification peat soil was introduced. ZVI reduced TCE, while peat provided TCE sorption site and microbes performing biological degradation. Nitrate reduction was also achieved by hydrogen from ZVI. In addition, indirect evidence of denitrification was observed. More reduction of TCE and nitrate was achieved by ZVI+peat treatment however nitrated reduction was hindered in the presence of TCE in the system due to the competition for hydrogen. TCE reduction mechanism was more dependent on ZVI, while nitrate was peat-dependent. Hydrogen and methane concentration showed that peat had various anaerobic denitryfing and halorespiring bacteria.

A polarograph with specially designed cell compartment usable in kinetic study of the mitochondrial respiration of a small sized sample was made, and its performance and experimental conditions were examined. An applied potential (ca-1.2V vs. SCE) which gives rise to the second step reduction of oxygen caused a considerable level of a residual current independent of oxygen, which is temporarily interpreted as the reduction current of the membrane-bound redox material(s) of mitochondria. A potential corresponding to the first slop reduction of oxygen (ca-0.4V vs SCE) did not produce the residual current. Thus, it is suggested that a measurement of oxygen concentration in a sample of mitochondria and submitochondrial particles by using dropping mercury electrode should be done with an applied potential of about -0.4V vs SCE. Consumption of oxygen by mitochondria was observed to follow practically zero order kinetics. Its rate constant exhibited the proportional relationship with the respiratory activity of mitochondria. Usefulness of tile instrument was properly demonstrated in the work on the temperature effect on the respiration of mitochondria isolated from several plant 4issues which were selected on the basis of chilling susceptivity.
