In the flip chip interconnection on organic substrates using eutectic Pb/Sn solder bumps highly reliable Under Bump Metallurgy (UBM) is required to maintain adhesion and solder wettability. Various UBM systems such as 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Pd/1$\mu$m Cu, laid under eutectic Pb/Sn solder were investigated with regard to their interfacial reactions and adhesion proper-ties. The effects of numbers of solder reflow and aging time on the growth of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) and on the solder ball shear strength were investigated. Good ball shear strength was obtained with 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Ti/5$\mu$m Cu and 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m ni/1$\mu$m Cu even after 4 solder reflows or 7 day aging at 15$0^{\circ}C$. In contrast 1$\mu$m Al/0.2$\mu$m Ti/1$\mu$m Cu and 1$\mu$mAl/0.2$\mu$m Pd/1$\mu$m 쳐 show poor ball shear strength. The decrease of the shear strength was mainly due to the direct contact between solder and nonwettable metal such as Ti and Al resulting in a delamination. In this case thin 1$\mu$m Cu and 0.2$\mu$m Pd diffusion barrier layer were completely consumed by Cu-Sn and pd-Sn reaction.

To evaluate the effect of groundwater flow on the outlet temperature of a geothermal heat pump, 3 dimensional numerical simulations are performed considering both groundwater flow and pipe flow in the U-tube using TOUGHS, The present study involved the following 4 simulation cases (1) no groundwater flow, (2) slow groundwater flow (hydraulic conductivity: $1.0{\times}10^{-9}m/s)$, (3) fast groundwater flow (hydraulic conductivity, $1.0{\times}10^{-7}m/s$), and (4) groundwater flow varying with the depth (hydraulic conductivity: $1.0{\times}10^{-7}-1.0{\times}10^{-10}m/s$). The effect of groundwater flow on the outlet temperature is significant where hydraulic conductivity of aquifer is $1.0{\times}10^{-7}m/s$. Where hydraulic conductivity of aquifer is $1.0{\times}10^{-10}m/s$, however, that effect is negligible.

A biosensor for the measurement of L-glutamine has been constructed by immobilizing the slice of Wistar rat kidney and it's organelle on $NH_3$ gas-sensing electrode. The effects of pH, buffer solution, temperature and thickness of slice were investigated in order to optimize electrode response. The tissue sensor had the linearity in the range of L-glutamine concentration $8.0{\times}10^{-5}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-2} M$ with a slope of 53.8 mV/decade in 0.05 M phosphate buffer solution, pH 7.8 at $30^{\circ}C$, and optimum thickness of slice and response time were 30 ${\mu}m$ and 3∼5 min, respectively. The organelle sensor showed the linearity within L-glutamine concentration range of $1.2{\times}10^{-4}{\sim}5.0{\times}10^{-3} M$ with a slope of 54.0 mV/decade in 0.05 M phosphate buffer solution, pH 7.8 at $30^{\circ}C$, and response time was 6∼7 min, respectively. Thus, it is clear that the tissue and organelle sensor will be useful for L-glutamine measurements.

The decompostion characteristics of NAPL TCE in cement/slag/Fe(II) system were studied with various TCE concentration and amounts of binders (cement/slag) For analyses of the TCE degradation by cement/slag/Fe(II), TCE solution injected using gas-tight syringe after TCE solution dissolved a methanol. Initial concentrations of TCE are 0.42 mM, NAPL condition 11.7 mM and saturated condition 16.8 mM respectively. The result showed that the cases of 8.4 mM and 4.2 mM are decreased 88% of total TCE concentration within 18 days. NAPL condition 11.7 mM was decreased 84% within 50 days and saturated condition 16.8 mM was decreased 60% of total TCE concentration within 60 days respectively. This showed that degradations of TCE in various concentrations were in one kind reaction as pseudo-first-order. TCE was dissolved as aqueous solution before degraded. The reaction rate was increased $0.12day^{-1}$, $0.24day^{-1}$, $0.31day^{-1}$ when the mass of media 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 S/L rate was increased. TCE reaction speed is affected by cement/slag surface ares in this system. When HDTMA, experimental facter, was added, TCE decomposition rate was high despite the high concentration of NAPL. and The decompostion characteristics of NAPL TCE in cement/slag/Fe(II) system were studied by using modeling.

Diabetes is marked by high glucose levels and is associated with decreased bone mass and increased fracture rates. To determine if [6]-gingerol could influence osteoblast dysfunction induced by 2-deoxy-D-ribose (dRib), osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells was treated with dRib and [6]-gingerol and markers of osteoblast function and oxidized protein were examined. [6]-Gingerol ($10^{-7}\;M$) significantly increased the growth of MC3T3-E1 cells in the presence of 30 mM dRib (p<0.05). [6]-Gingerol ($10^{-7}\;M$) caused a significant elevation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, collagen content, and osteocalcin secretion in the cells. We then examined the effect of [6]-gingerol on the production of osteoprotegerin and protein carbonyl in osteoblasts. Treatment with [6]-gingerol ($10^{-9}$ and $10^{-7}\;M$) increased osteoprotegerin secretion in osteoblastic cells. Moreover, [6]-gingerol ($10^{-9}$ and $10^{-7}\;M$) decreased protein carbonyl contents of osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells in the presence of 30 mM dRib. Taken together, these results demonstrate that [6]-gingerol inhibits dRib-induced damage and may be useful in the treatment of diabetes related bone diseases.

For the effective utilization of cellulosic biomass, conidial protoplast fusion between Aspergillus niger MAN-831(${\beta}-glucosidase$) and A. wentii MAW-538(CMCase and avicelase), which produced potently cellulolytic enzymes was carried out. Optimal conditions for formation and regeneration of protoplast were conidiospore age-5 dyuas. $2-DG-30\mu\textrm{g}/ml$, preincubation time-4 hours, osmotic stabilizer-0.7M KCl, novozyme(7mg/ml)＋driselase(2.5mg/ml) and reaction time of enzyme-5 hours. Optimal conditions for protoplast fusion were obtained by treatment of protoplasts with 15mM CaCl2 and 25% polyethylene glycol 4000(pH 6~7) as fusogenic agent at $36^{\circ}C$ for 25~30 minutes. The frequency was then $7.94{\times}10^{-4}$. CMCase, avicelase and ${\beta}-glucosidase$ activity of fusant F-208 strain was 1.5, 1.3, 1.2 times higher than those of parental strains, respectively.

The rate constants and activation energies for formation of two chemical markers, M-1 and M-2 at sterilization temperatures were determined in a meatball system. Destruction rates for bacterial spores were also determined. The rate constants for M-1 and M-2 formation at $121^{\circ}C$ were 0.03 and 0.28 Abs/min, respectively. The activation energies for M-1 and M-2 were 27.9 and 24.6 Cal/mol. M-2 was formed faster than M-1 and reached a maximum and decreased. M-1 formation continued up to 30 min at $121^{\circ}C$ and 10 min at $131^{\circ}C$, which makes M-1 a more useful chemical marker for high $F_0$ values. The D-values for spores (B. stearothermophilus ATCC 12980) at 111, 114.4, 117.7 and $121^{\circ}C$ were 7.5, 4.5, 1.9 and 0.58 respectively. At temperatures between 111 and $121^{\circ}C$, there was a liner correlation between destruction of the spores and the M-1 formation. It was difficult to get accurate D-value at $126^{\circ}C\;and\;131^{\circ}C$, because almost all spores were dead before temperature at the center of the meatball reached $126^{\circ}C$. These data suggest that the chemical marker should be used to evaluate overprocessing as well as microbial lethality in aseptic processing.

Effects of chemical composition ($Cu^{2+}$, $K_4P_2O_7$ and additive concentrations) of baths on properties of Cu thin films electrodeposited from pyrophosphate copper bath were investigated. Current efficiency was increased to be near 100% with increasing $Cu^{2+}$ concentrations from 0.02 to 0.3M. Decrease of current efficiency was observed in the range of 1.5~1.8M $K_4P_2O_7$ concentration, but current efficiency of about 100% was measured in the ranges of both 0.9~1.3M and 2.1~2.4M. The change of additive concentration did not influenced current efficiency. Residual stress of electrodeposited Cu thin films was measured to be about 20 MPa below 0.15 M $Cu^{2+}$ concentration and increased with the increase of it to 0.25 M. Maximum residual stress of 120MPa was observed at 0.25M $Cu^{2+}$ concentration. On the other hand, residual stress decreased from 80 to near 0 MPa as $K_4P_2O_7$ concentration varied from 0.9 to 2.4M and but The change of additive concentration did not affected on residual stress. $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations significantly affect on surface morphology of electrodeposited Cu thin films, but additive concentration slightly affected. From XRD analysis, the microstructures of electrodeposited Cu thin film was affected from the changes of $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations, but not from that of additive concentration. Strong preferred orientation of (111) peak was observed with increasing $Cu^{2+}$ and $K_4P_2O_7$ concentrations.

We investigated and estimated at the characteristics of decomposition and by-products of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) using a design of experiment (DOE) based on the Box-Behken design in an UV process, and also the main factors (variables) with UV intensity($X_2$) (range: $1.5{\sim}4.5\;mW/cm^2$), NDMA concentration ($X_2$) (range: 100~300 uM) and pH ($X_2$) (rang: 3~9) which consisted of 3 levels in each factor and 4 responses ($Y_1$ (% of NDMA removal), $Y_2$ (dimethylamine (DMA) reformation (uM)), $Y_3$ (dimethylformamide (DMF) reformation (uM), $Y_4$ ($NO_2$-N reformation (uM)) were set up to estimate the prediction model and the optimization conditions. The results of prediction model and optimization point using the canonical analysis in order to obtain the optimal operation conditions were $Y_1$ [% of NDMA removal] = $117+21X_1-0.3X_2-17.2X_3+{2.43X_1}^2+{0.001X_2}^2+{3.2X_3}^2-0.08X_1X_2-1.6X_1X_3-0.05X_2X_3$ ($R^2$= 96%, Adjusted $R^2$ = 88%) and 99.3% ($X_1:\;4.5\;mW/cm^2$, $X_2:\;190\;uM$, $X_3:\;3.2$), $Y_2$ [DMA conc] = $-101+18.5X_1+0.4X_2+21X_3-{3.3X_1}^2-{0.01X_2}^2-{1.5X_3}^2-0.01X_1X_2+0.07X_1X_3-0.01X_2X_3$ ($R^2$= 99.4%, 수정 $R^2$ = 95.7%) and 35.2 uM ($X_1$: 3 $mW/cm^2$, $X_2$: 220 uM, $X_3$: 6.3), $Y_3$ [DMF conc] = $-6.2+0.2X_1+0.02X_2+2X_3-0.26X_1^2-0.01X_2^2-0.2X_3^2-0.004X_1X_2+0.1X_1X_3-0.02X_2X_3$ ($R^2$= 98%, Adjusted $R^2$ = 94.4%) and 3.7 uM ($X_1:\;4.5\;$mW/cm^2$, $X_2:\;290\;uM$, $X_3:\;6.2$) and $Y_4$ [$NO_2$-N conc] = $-25+12.2X_1+0.15X_2+7.8X_3+{1.1X_1}^2+{0.001X_2}^2-{0.34X_3}^2+0.01X_1X_2+0.08X_1X_3-3.4X_2X_3$ ($R^2$= 98.5%, Adjusted $R^2$ = 95.7%) and 74.5 uM ($X_1:\;4.5\;mW/cm^2$, $X_2:\;220\;uM$, $X_3:\;3.1$). This study has demonstrated that the response surface methodology and the Box-Behnken statistical experiment design can provide statistically reliable results for decomposition and by-products of NDMA by the UV photolysis and also for determination of optimum conditions. Predictions obtained from the response functions were in good agreement with the experimental results indicating the reliability of the methodology used.
