In this article, we explore the issue concerning semiconductors half-space comprised of materials with varying thermal conductivity. The problem is within the framework of the generalized thermoelastic model under one thermal relaxation time. The half-boundary space's plane is considered to be traction free and is subjected to a thermal shock. The material is supposed to have a temperature-dependent thermal conductivity. The numerical solutions to the problem are achieved using the finite element approach. To find the analytical solution to the linear problem, the eigenvalue approach is used with the Laplace transform. Neglecting the new parameter allows for comparisons between numerical findings and analytical solutions. This facilitates an examination of the physical quantities in the numerical solutions, ensuring the accuracy of the proposed approach.

An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of trace Ge, As and Se in biological samples by inductively coupled plasma/mass spectrometry has been investigated. The effects of added organic gas into the coolant argon gas on the analyte signal were studied to improve the detection limit, accuracy and precision. The addition of a small amount of methane (10 mL/min.) into the coolant gas channel improved the ionization of Ge, As and Se. The analytical sensitivity of the proposed Ar/CH₄system was superior by at least two-fold to that of the conventional Ar method. In the present method, the detection limits obtained for Ge, As and Se were 0.014, 0.012 and 0.064 ㎍/L, respectively. The analytical reliability of the proposed method was evaluated by analyzing the certified standard reference materials (SRM). Recoveries of 99.9% for Ge, 103% for As, 96.5% for Se were obtained for NIST SRM of freeze dried urine sample. The proposed method was also applied to the biological samples.

Contaminative artifacts such as carbonaceous materials on carbon-coated microgrids are unavoidable, which is induced by electron beam exposure inside electron microscopes. This phenomenon raise a source to produce confusing information to the samples investigated by analytical TEM, which should be alleviated as much as possible. As experimental precautions for reducing this unwanted effect, the use of $LN_2$ cooled anti-contaminator and pre-illumination of electron beam at low magnification can be helpful. Nevertheless, we should be cautious to set an illumination condition for microanalysis because the contaminative effect is dependent with the types of irradiation situations, which is well known to be a decisive factor for causing the carbonaceous artifacts. Accordingly, it is necessary that optimal illumination to minimize the contaminative effect should be selected for improving the accuracy of microanalysis. In this paper, we introduce the practical method to determine the optimal illumination condition by evaluating the contaminative effect as a function of instrumental spot size, which is directly linked with electron current density.

In this paper we have constructed a mathematical model of alcohol abuse which consists of four compartments corresponding to four population classes, namely, moderate and occasional drinkers, heavy drinkers, drinkers in treatment and temporarily recovered class. Basic reproduction number $R_0$ has been determined and sensitivity analysis of $R_0$ indicates that ${\beta}1$ (the transmission coefficient from moderate and occasional drinker to heavy drinker) is the most useful parameter for preventing drinking habit. Stability analysis of the model is made using the basic reproduction number. The model is locally asymptotically stable at disease free or problem free equilibrium (DFE) $E_0$ when $R_0<1$. It is found that, when $R_0=1$, a backward bifurcation can occur and when $R_0>1$, the endemic equilibrium $E^*$ becomes stable. Further analysis gives the global asymptotic stability of DFE under some conditions. Our important analytical findings are illustrated through computer simulation. Epidemiological implications of our analytical findings are addressed critically.

미생물막 전극을 이용하여 신속하게 생화학적 산소요구량(BOD)을 측정할 수 있는 신속 BOD 측정장치를 개발하였다. 미생물의 배양과 미생물막의 제조방법, BOD 측정시 시료 용액의 흐름속도의 영향, 용액의 pH의 영향, 그리고 미생물막의 감응특성 등에 관하여 연구하였다. 본 연구에서 개발한 신속 BOD 측정장치는 개인용 컴퓨터에 연결되어 BOD 측정의 전 과정이 자동으로 진행되도록 제작되었으며, 시료 용액의 유속이 7.8mL/min일 때 시료 주입 5분 후의 측정시에 좋은 결과를 나타내었다.

poly(vinyl chloride)와 가소제만으로 된 막을 제조하여 몇 가지 염기성 의약품에 대한 감응 특성을 조사하여 보았다. 감응막을 초기의 전위값으로 빨리 되돌리기 위하여 황산으로 처리하였다. chlorpromazine을 정량할 때 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether을 사용한 막에서 $10^{-6}{\sim}10^{-3}M$, dioctyl PhenylPhosphnate, isododecyl phenylphosphate, dioctyl maleate 등의 경우 $10^{-6}{\sim}10^{-2}M$까지의 직선성 검량선을 얻을 수 있었고, 항생제, 당, 그리고 1급 아민화합물에 대한 감응선은 적게 나타났다.

생물시료에 존재하는 휘발성 유기화합물 중 n-butylbenzene과 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane (DBCP)를 기체크로마토그래피/질량분석기-선택이온검색법에 의해 수행하였다. 시료 중 휘발성 유기화합물은 $100{\mu}m$ polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) fiber를 사용하여 headspace solid phase microextractio (SPME) 및 purge & trap 방법에 의해 추출 및 비교하였다. SPME에 의한 회수율은 n-butylbenzene의 경우 85.8%, DBCP의 경우 92.4%로 나타났고 검출한계는 각각 $0.15{\mu}g/kg$, $0.05{\mu}g/kg$로 나타났다. 반면, purge & trap의 경우 회수율은 n-butylbenzene의 경우 115.2%, DBCP의 경우는 80.9%로 나타났고 검출한계는 각각 $0.04{\mu}g/kg$ 및 $0.70{\mu}g/kg$로 나타나 두 방법에 있어 국내에서 규제하는 검출한계측면에서 큰 차이는 없었다.

Evaluation of drug-excipient compatibility is one of the basic steps in the preformulation of pharmaceutical dosage forms. Some reactive excipients have been known so far which may cause stability problems for drug molecules in pharmaceutical dosage forms. The aim of this study was to evaluate drugexcipient compatibility of gliclazide with some common pharmaceutical excipients, known for their ability to incorporate in drug-excipient interactions. Binary mixtures were prepared using lactose, magnesium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sodium starch glycolate, polyethylene glycol 2000 and dicalcium phosphate. Based on the results; gliclazide was incompatible with all tested excipients; but not with dicalcium phosphate. DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) results were in accordance with HPLC (High Pressure liquid chromatography) data and were more predictive than FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Drug and reactive excipients incompatibility was fully discussed and documented. It is advisable to avoid incompatible excipients or carefully monitor the drug stability when incorporating such excipients in final formulation designs.

Cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and adaptation to environmental changes are regulated by protein phosphorylation. In order to enhance the understanding of molecular dynamics for biological process in detail, it is necessary to develop sensitive and comprehensive analytical methods for the determination of protein phosphorylation. Neural stem cells hold great promise for neural repair following an injury or disease. In this study, we made differentiated oligodendrocytes from human neural stem cells using over-expression of olig2 gene. We confirmed using quantitative phosphoproteome analysis approach that combines stable isotope labeling by amino acids in cell culture (SILAC) and $TiO_2$ micro-column for phosphopeptide enrichment with $MS^2$ and $MS^3$ mass spectrometry. We detected 275 phosphopeptides which were modulated at least 2-fold between human neural stem cells and oligodendrocytes. Among them, 23 phosphoproteins were up-regulated in oligodendrocytes and 79 phosphoproteins were up-regulated in F3 cells.
