High-efficiency phosphorescent organic light emitting diodes using TCTA-TAZ as a double host and $Ir(ppy)_3$ as a dopant were fabricated and their electro-luminescence properties were evaluated. The fabricated devices have the multi-layered organic structure of 2-TNATA/NPB/(TCTA-TAZ) : $Ir(ppy)_3$/BCP/SFC137 between an anode of ITO and a cathode of LiF/AL. In the device structure, 2-TNATA[4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthylphenyl-phenylamino)-triphenylamine] and NPB[N,N'-bis(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine] were used as a hole injection layer and a hole transport layer, respectively. BCP [2,9-dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline] was introduced as a hole blocking layer and an electron transport layer, respectively. TCTA [4,4',4"-tris(N-carbazolyl)-triphenylamine] and TAZ [3-phenyl-4-(1-naphthyl)-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazole] were sequentially deposited, forming a double host doped with $Ir(ppy)_3$ in the [TCTA-TAZ] : $Ir(ppy)_3$ region. Among devices with different thickness combinations of TCTA ($50\;{\AA}-200\;{\AA}$) and TAZ ($100\;{\AA}-250\;{\AA}$) within the confines of the total host thickness of $300\;{\AA}$ and an $Ir(ppy)_3$-doping concentration of 7%, the best electroluminescence characteristics were obtained in a device with $100\;{\AA}$-think TCTA and $200\;{\AA}$-thick TAZ. The $Ir(ppy)_3$ concentration in the doping range of 4%-10% in devices with an emissive layer of [TCTA ($100\;{\AA}$)-TAZ ($200\;{\AA}$)] : $Ir(ppy)_3$ gave rise to little difference in the luminance and current efficiency.

In this study, the antioxidative and inhibitory activity of tyrosinase and collagenase for the solvent extract and silica column fractions of Artocarpus nitidus were evaluated. The activities were quantified using the 4 parameter logistic. LC/MS analysis showed that the major component of the fractions was polyphenol and the total polyphenol content of the extract was $48.1{\pm}2.6mg\;GAE/g$. The radical scavenging activities ($SC_{50}$) for 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl of the extract, fraction-1 and fraction-2 were 16.7, 42.0 and $10.1{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. The value for fraction-2 was the closest to ascorbic acid ($1.5{\mu}g/mL$). The tyrosinase inhibitory activity of the extracts and the fractions showed $IC_{50}$ of 64.9, 0.9 and $1.2{\mu}g/mL$, respectively, and overall activity was higher than that of kojic acid ($7.4{\mu}g/mL$) and arbutin ($119.0{\mu}g/mL$). In the experiment by zebrafish embryo, the whitening activity of fraction-2 (27.5%) was higher than that of kojic acid (18.6%), and there was no adverse effect up to $500{\mu}g/mL$ of fraction-2. For the collagenase inhibitory activity, the samples showed $IC_{50}$ of 139.8, 20.6, and $16.8{\mu}g/mL$, respectively, which were competitive to 1, 10-Phenanthroline ($55.4{\mu}g/mL$). The extract and fraction-2 showed $IC_{50}$ of 61.8 and $67.1{\mu}g/mL$ for elastase. These results suggest that A. nitidus extract can be used as a cosmetic material useful for antioxidant, whitening, and prevention of skin aging without adverse effects.

Three new cyanide-bridged $Cr^{III}Mn^{II}$ binuclear complexes, $[Mn(phen)_2Cl][Cr(bpmb)(CN)_2]{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{1}$) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, $bpdmb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4-methyl-benzenate), $[Mn(phen)_2Cl][Cr(bpmb)-(CN)_2]{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{2}$) ($bpdmb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4,5-dimethyl-benzenate), and $[Mn(phen)_2Cl]-[Cr(bpClb)(CN)_2]{\cdot}CH_3OH{\cdot}H_2O$ ($\mathbf{3}$) ($bpClb^{2-}$ = 1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido)-4-chloro-benzenate) were obtained based on $Mn(phen)_2Cl_2$ and a series of dicyanidechromate(III) building blocks. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows the structures of the three complexes are dimeric type with two different metal centers linked by a cyanide group from corresponding dicyanidechromate(III) building block. Magnetic investigations indicate the existence of relatively weak antiferromagnetic coupling between Cr(III) and Mn(II) ions with best-fit constants $J_{CrMn}=-2.78(5)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{1}$, $J_{CrMn}=-3.02(2)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{2}$ and $J_{CrMn}=-2.27(3)cm^{-1}$ for $\mathbf{3}$ based on the spin exchange Hamiltonian = $-2J_{CrMn}\hat{S}_{Cr}\hat{S}_{Mn}$. The magneto-structural correlation of cyanide-bridged $Cr^{III}Mn^{II}$ complexes has been discussed at last.

The role of oxidative stress in the initiation and the complication of diabetes was examined by monitoring blood glucose increase and oxidative DNA damage in rats treated with alloxan or streptozotocin (STZ). Oxidative DNA damage was assessed by quantitating 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine ($oxo^8dG)$ excreted in urine and the $oxo^8dG$ accumulated in pancreas DNA. Both alloxan and STZ treatments resulted in an abrupt increase in blood glucose and significant increases in urinary and pancreatic $oxo^8dG$. Pretreatment of buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), a glutathione-depleting agent, slightly potentiated the increase of blood glucose and urinary $oxo^8dG$ in the alloxan- and STZ-treated rats. Furthermore, the BSO pretreatment caused significant amplification of pancreatic $oxo^8dG$ increase in the rats. On the other hand, pretreatment with 1,10- phenanthroline (o-phen), a chelator of divalent cations, showed different results between alloxan- and STZ-treated rats. The o-phen pretreatment completely blocked diabetes and the increase of $oxo^8dG$ by alloxan treatment, while it potentiated the increase of blood glucose and $oxo^8dG$ by STZ treatment. The results demonstrate that the causative effect of alloxan on diabetes may be the generation of reactive oxygen species through a Fenton type reaction, but that of STZ may not.

유기발광소자는 빠른 응답속도, 높은 색재현성 및 높은 명암비의 장점을 가지며 차세대 디스플레이로서 소형 및 대형 디스플레이로 각광 받고 있다. 저전압구동 유기발광소자를 제작하기 위해 p-i-n 유기발광소자에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 p형 물질에 대한 연구는 많이 진행 되었으나 n형 유기물질에 대한 연구는 아직까지 진행되고 있지 않다. n형 무기물질로 알칼리 금속을 많이 사용하고 있지만, 공기 중에 쉽게 산화되고 금속 이온의 확산에 의한 발광층 여기자 소멸 효과에 의한 효율 감소문제가 있다. 또한, 무기물질의 높은 증착온도에 따른 유기층의 손상 문제가 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 유기물 n형 물질에 관한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 n형 유기물 도펀트인 bis (ethylenedithio)-tetrahiafulene (BEDT-TTF)를 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BPhen) 전자수송층에 도핑하여 유기발광소자의 전자 수송 능력을 향상하였다. BEDT-TTF의 낮은 증착온도와 공기 중에 산화가 되지 않으며, 유기물을 사용하기 때문에 발광층 여기자 소멸을 방지할 수 있다. 전자수송층에 도핑된 BEDT-TTF 분자는 산화 반응에 의한 전자 증가에 따른 에너지 장벽을 감소시켜 전자의 주입을 향상하였다. BEDT-TTF의 농도에 따른 유기발광소자의 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 각각 관찰하여 BEDT-TTF의 농도에 따른 전자 수송 향상에 따른 저전압 유기발광소자 구동을 관측하였다.

유기발광소자는 차세대 디스플레이로 각광받으며 모바일 디스플레이에 이어 대형 디스플레이의 상용화 단계에 이르고 있다. 유기발광소자의 효율을 높이기 위해서는 여러 가지 구조에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 하지만 유기물 내에서는 정공 이동도가 전자 이동도보다 빠르기 때문에 유기발광소자의 발광층에서 전자와 정공이 효율적으로 균형을 이루기 위하여 전자 주입효율 증진에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 녹색 유기발광소자의 전자 주입 효율을 향상 하여 소자의 발광 효율을 증진하는 발광효율 향상 메커니즘을 규명하였다. Cesium nitrate(CsNO3)와 lithium quinolate (Liq)를 다층 전자주입층으로 사용한 녹색 유기발광소자는 indiumtin-oxide 양극전극 위에 진공 증착 방법을 사용하여 유기발광소자를 제작하였다. 정공수송층으로 N,N'-di(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenylbenzidine (NPB), 발광층으로 tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) (Alq3), 전자수송층으로 Alq3와 4,7-diphenyl-l-10-phenanthroline (BPhen), 전자주입층으로 CsNO3/Liq와 Liq, Al을 음극 전극으로 각각 사용하였다. CsNO3/Liq와 Liq를 전자주입층과 Alq3와 BPhen 전자 수송층으로 각각 사용한 녹색 유기발광소자의 전자 주입 성능을 비교 하여 발광 효율 향상 메커니즘을 규명하였다. CsNO3/Liq 전자주입층을 사용한 유기발광소자가 Liq 전자주입층을 사용한 유기발광소자보다 전극으로부터 전자 주입효율이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 전자주입효율 향상으로 발광층의 전자와 정공의 재결합을 증가하여 녹색 유기발광소자의 효율이 증진되었고 구동전압이 낮아졌다.

Organic light emitting diodes(OLEDs) are widely used as one of the information display techniques. We synthesized (1,10-phenanthroline)- (8-hydroxyquinoline) [Zn(Phen)q]. We studied the improvement of OLEDs properties using Zn(phen)q. The Ionization Potential(IP) and the Electron Affinity(EA) of Zn(phen)q investigated using cyclic voltammetry(CV). The IP, EA and Eg were 7.leV, 3.4eV and 3.7eV, respectively. The PL spectrum of Zn(phen)q was yellowish green as the wavelength of 535nm. In this study, we used Zn(phen)q as electron transporting layer(ETL) inserted between emitting layer(EML) and cathode. As a result, Zn(phen)q is useful as electron transporting layer to enhance the performance of OLEDs.

Four proteolytic bacteria were isolated and identified from a rotating biological contactor based on Bacillus. The four isolates, Ni 26, 36, 39 and 49 were identified as B. vallismortis, B. subtilis, Aeromonas hydrophila and B. amyioliquefaciens, respectively, based on their biochemical properties and 16S rDNA sequence analyses. The optimal proteolytic activity was observed in the temperature and pH ranges of 40-70$^{\circ}C$ and 8.0-8.5, respectively. The proteolytic activities of all the isolates were partially inhibited by phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride (PMSF), and the isolates Ni 26, Ni 39 and Ni 49 were inhibited by the metalloprotease inhibitor, 1,10-phenanthroline. Zymographic analyses of the culture supernatants revealed the presence of at least two pretenses in all isolates.

Zn(HPB)$_2$ is also good a hole blocking material.
