  • 황기의 형질전환된 모상근으로부터 약리물질인 astragalosides I, II, 그리고 III을 효율적으로 생산하기 위하여 다양한 물리화학적 조건들 즉, 배지, 초기 당농도, 교반속도, 초기 접종농도, 광조사, 그리고 chitosan 처리에 한 elicitation 효과를 조사 하였다. 선발된 AG-04 clone의 성장과 astragalosides의 함량은 4종의 배지들 중 SH배지에서 가장 좋았으며, 배지에 첨가하는 초기 당 농도는 3%와 6%에서 각기 건물중과 astragalosides의 함량이 가장 높게 나타났다. 또한, 초기 접종량은 50 ml 배지에 500 mg(FRW)씩을 주입하는게 가장 효과적이었으며, 18시간 광조사가 되는 Shaking incubator에서 90 rpm과 120으로 교반시켰을 때 모상근의 성장과 astargalosides의 함량이 높게 나타났다. 배양 2주 후 chitosan의 처리는 모상근의 성장에는 크게 영향을 미치지 않았으나, 100 mg/L 처리구에서 대조구의 약 2.1배의 astragalosides 함량 증가를 가져왔다. 이와같은 연구결과는 황기의 대량배양을 통한 saponins 생산 연구에 효율적으로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 본다.

  • The Donjin deposits which is located in the Chinan Basin, are emplaced along $N10{\sim}40^{\circ}E$ trending fissure sets. So it is a sort of fissure-filling ore deposits. The results of paragenetic studies suggest two stages of hydrothermal mineralization; stage I: base-metal sulfides stage, stage II: late base-metal sulfides, electrum and silver-bearing sulfosalts stage. Au: Ag ratios of the electrums show that Ag atomic% are higher than that of Au. The temperature and salinity of the Donjin deposits estimated from fluid inclusion and sulfur isotope geothermometry are as follows; stage I: $240{\sim}315^{\circ}C$, 2.4~7.1 NaCl eq. wt.%, stage II: $190{\sim}268^{\circ}C$, 4.6~8.4 NaCl eq. wt.%. The estimated oxygen and sulfur fugacity during first stage mineralization, based on phase relation of associated minerals, range from $10^{-35}{\sim}10^{-39.7}$ atm. and$10^{-11}{\sim}10^{-13.4}$ atm., respectively. All these evidences suggest that the Dongjin deposits are polymetallic meso-epithermal ore deposits.

  • 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT)을 분해할 수 있는 Stenotrophomonas sp. OK-5에서 분리한 NAD(P)H-nitroreductase의 특성을 조사하였다. 먼저 ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-sepharose, 그리고 Q-sepharose 등의 일련의 정제 과정을 통하여 NAD(P)H-nitroreductase을 분리정제하였다. 분취기로부터 얻어진 시료로부터 NAD(P)H-nitroreductase의 효소활성을 가지는 3개의 다른 fractions (I, II 및 III)이 탐침되었다. NAD(P)H-nitroreductase의 fractions I, II, 그리고 III의 비활성(specific activity)은 각각 5.06 unit/mg, 4.95 unit/mg, and 4.86 unit/mg이었으며, crude extract와 비교하여 각각 10.5배, 9.8배, 8.9배 이상 농축되었다. 이 실험에서 이들 3개의 fractions 가운데, fraction I이 가장 높은 비활성을 나타내었다. NAD(P)H-nitroreductase (fractions I, II 및 III)의 효소활성에 영향을 미치는 몇 가지 요인을 조사하였다. 모든 NAD(P)H-nitroreductase (fractions I, II 및 III)의 최적 온도는 30$^{\circ}C$이었으며, 최적 pH는 약 7.5이었다. 4Ag^+, Cu_2^+, Hg_2^+$ 등의 금속이온은 약 80%의 효소활성을 저해하였으나, $Mn_2^+ 이나 Ca_2^+$의 첨가 시에는 약 30~40% 정도의 활성이 감소되었다. 그러나 $Fe_3^+$은 이들 효소의 활성을 증진시켰다. SDS-PAGE에 의해 측정된 NAD(P)H-nitroreductase의 fractions I, II 및 III의 분자량은 모두 약 27 kDa임이 확인되었다.

  • Background: To determine the potential clinical utility of tumor markers CEA, TPA, and SCC-Ag for early detection of cervical precancerous lesions. Materials and Methods: A case-control study was carried out on 120 women (46 patients with histologically confirmed cervical precancerous lesions and 74 healthy controls). The significance of serum selected tumor markers in early detection of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) were assessed. Results: Of the case group, the rates of CIN I, II, III, was 69.6%, 23.9%, and 6.5%, respectively. According to the manufacturer's cut-off values of 2ng/ml, 5ng/ml, and 70 U/ml for SCC-Ag, CEA and TPA tests, in that order, SCC-Ag test had a sensitivity of 13%, but CEA and TPA tests could not distinguish between case and control groups. The diagnostic sensitivities were highest at cut-off values of 0.55 ng/ml for SCC-Ag, 2.6ng/ml for CEA, and 25.5 U/ml for TPA which were 93%, 61%, and 50%, respectively. However, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was the largest for SCC-Ag (0.95 vs. 0.61 and 0.60 for CEA and TPA, respectively). Moreover, there was a highly significant direct correlation between SCC-Ag concentration and the degree of cervical precancerous lesions (r=0.847, p<0.001). Conclusions: The new cutoff of 0.5 for SCC-Ag test might be useful as a tumor marker in Iranian patients with CIN and it needs to be more evaluated by studies with larger populationa.

  • 치아우식은 주로 mutans streptococci에 의해 야기되는 감염성 질환으로서 주 원인균에는 streptococcus mutans가 있다. S. mutans가 치아우식을 유발하는 분자 생물학적 기전은 몇 가지 단계를 포함한다. 먼저 S. mutans는 AgI/II와 같은 세포 표면의 섬유성 단백질을 매개로 치면의 타액성 피막에 일차적으로 부착한다. 두번째 단계에서 자당의 존재하에 glucosyltransferase(GTF)는 glucan과 같은 다당체를 합성하게 된다. 마지막으로 이렇게 합성된 glucan은 glucan binding proteins와 상호작용하여 치면세균막을 형성해서 세균의 군집화를 가능하게 한다. 많은 실험과 임상연구에서 S. mutans의 주요 항원(Ag I/II, GTFs, GBPs)들이 치아우식 병리기전에 영향을 준다고 알려져 왔고, 따라서 이런 항원들이 면역계에 작용하여 치아우식을 막는 백신으로 이용 가능하다. 본 실험은 streptococcus mutans GS-5로부터, GTFb, GTFc, GTFd 유전자를 복제하고 염기서열분석을 하였으며, 이중 GTFd가 먼저 재조합 단백질 생산을 위해 발현 벡터에 클로닝 되었으며, 이로부터 단백질이 발현됨을 확인하였다. 이번 실험에서 얻은 순수 GTF 항원은 동물실험을 통해 특정 GTF 활성부위에 대한 항체 생산에 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

  • This article describes the synthesis of a novel N-substituted pyrrole monomer containing an azobenzene group. The 2-[N-ethyl-N-[4-[(4-nitrophenyl) azo]-phenyl] amino] ethyl-3-chloropropionate (RedII) compound was synthesized via reaction of 4-nitro-4'-[N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amino] azobenzene (RedI) and 3-chloropropionic acid. RedII was reacted with the potassium salt of pyrrole then 2-[N-ethyl-N-[4-[(nitro phenyl) azo] phenyl] amino] ethyl-N-pyrrolyl propionate (Py-RedII) was prepared. Chemical polymerization of Py-RedII and copolymerization of Py-RedII with pyrrole carried out using $FeCl_3$. Poly (2-[N-ethyl-N-[4-[(nitro phenyl) azo] phenyl] amino] ethyl-N-pyrrolyl propionate) (PPy-RedII) was characterized by UV, IR, $^1HNMR$, $^{13}CNMR$ spectroscopies. Electropolymerization of Py-RedII and electroco-polymerization of Py-RedII and pyrrole were studied using conventional three electrodes system, Ag/AgCl reference electrode, platinum counter electrode and GC disk working electrode. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetry analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used for thermal and rheological studies. The TGA curve of PPy-RedII demonstrated a high thermal stability up to 200°C and its DSC thermogram showed two endothermic peaks at 88 and $122^{\circ}C$. The glass transition temperature of the polymer was found to be above the room temperature. Electrical conductivities of PPy-RedII and it's copolymer with pyrrole (PPy-RedII-co-Py) were studied by the four-probe method and produced conductivities of $7.5{\times}10^{-4}$ and $6.5{\times}10^{-3}Scm^{-1}$, respectively.

  • Alternating current (AC) losses of two Bi-2223 ([Bi, Pb]: Sr: Ca: Cu: O = 2:2:2:3) tapes [(Tape I, un-twist-pitch) and the other with a twist-pitch of 10 mm (Tape II)] were measured and compared. These samples, produced by the powder-in-(Ag) tube (PIT) method, are multi-filamentary. Also, it's produced by non-twist and different twist pitch (8, 10, 13, 30, 50 and 70 mm). The critical current measurement was carried out under the environment in liquid Nitrogen and in zero-field by 4-probe method. Susceptibility measurements were conducted while cooling in a magnetic field. Flux loss measurements were conducted as a function of ramping rate, frequency and field direction. The AC flux loss increases as the twist-pitch of the tapes decreased, in agreement with the Norris Equation. Neutron-diffraction measurements have been carried out investigate the crystal structure, magnetic structures, and magnetic phase transitions in Bi-2223([Bi, Pb]:Sr:Ca:Cu:O)

  • This study investigates Cu(II) complexes of cyclam, propylene cross-bridged cyclam (PCB-cyclam), and propylene cross-bridged cyclam diacetate (PCB-TE2A) as homogeneous electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction in comparison with Ni(II)-cyclam. It is found that Cu(II)-cyclam can catalyze CO2 reduction at the potential close to its thermodynamic value (0.75 V vs. Ag/AgCl) in tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.45) on a glassy carbon electrode. Cu(II)-cyclam, however, suffers from severe demetalation due to the insufficient stability of Cu(I)-cyclam. Cu(II)-PCB-cyclam and Cu(II)-PCB-TE2A are revealed to exhibit much less demetalation behavior, but poor CO2 reduction activities as well. The inferior electrocatalytic ability of Cu(II)-PCB-cyclam is ascribed to its redox potential that is too high for CO2 reduction, and that of Cu(II)-PCB-TE2A to the steric hindrance preventing facile contact with CO2 molecules. This study suggests that in addition to the redox potential and chemical stability, the stereochemical aspect has to be considered in designing efficient electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction.

  • The Daejang mine is one of the representatives of Cu-Pb-Zn-(Ag) vein deposit related genetically to late Cretaceous granitoid in Korea. Sericite from an alteration halo of the mine yielded a K-Ar date of $95{\pm}3.5Ma$. Based on macrostructures of vein filling, three major mineralization stages (I, II and III) are distinguished by tectonic breaks. Major ore constituents are arsenopyrite, pyrite, pyrrhotite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, boulangerite, with small amounts of Ag-bearing tetrahedrite, pyrargyrite, native bismuth, marcasite, siderite, ankerite, gudmundite and calcite. Characteristic feature of each mineralization stage and compositional variation of sphalerite and arsenopyrite are discussed in relation to the genetic environments. The FeS contents of sphalerites are 20.5~14.9 mole % in stage I, 17.9~11.9 mole % in stage IIA, 17.0~9.2 mole % in stage IIB, and 6.9~4.7 mole % in stage III. Their results are indicative of decreasing FeS contents during mineralization process in sphalerite coexisting with sulfur-rich sulfide assemblages, such as monoclinic pyrrhotite and pyrite, and is agreement with the conclusions shown by Scott and Kissin(1973). The composition of arsenopyrite decrease also in As content from stage I to stage III, and the compositional variation correlate with position of the associated minerals in the paragenesis. Temperature and pressure of the mineralization are determined as $250{\sim}430^{\circ}C$ and 4.0~0.3kb respectively, based on the chemistry of the minerals.
