방사 공정 최적화를 위해 칩(chip)건조를 실시하여 칩의 수분을 모두 제거한 후 실험을 진행하게 된다. 칩은 그 자체가 공정수분율(0.4%) 또는 그 이상의 수분을 함유하고 있으므로 건조하지 않고 방사하면 현저히 가수분해가 일어난다. 가수분해가 일어난다면 PET 분자량도 저하되어 고분자의 성질을 잃게 되어 방사된 섬유의 물리 화학적 성질에 중요한 영향을 받게 된다. 그러므로 가수분해를 방지하기 위하여 칩내 수분을 제거하는 건조 공정을 거치는 것이다. 개발된 나노은입자을 함유한 Ag/PET 마스터배치의 제사성 및 가연성 평가을 위한 파일럿연구를 행했다. 본 연구에서 사용한 은나노 M/B 칩(chip)의 경우 일반적으로 사용하는 PET 칩에 비하여 낮은 고유점도를 가지므로 방사성에 칩의 수분이 더욱 영향을 미칠 것이라 판단되어 건조공정에 특별한 주의을 하여 진행하였다. 마스터배치의 고유점도(IV)값의 변화에 따른 제사성 및 가연성 평가를 관찰하였다. #3 M/B 칩의 제사성이 #1 M/B 칩 대비 공정성이 개선되어 두 품종 모두 비출사가 발생하지 않았으며, M/B 제조시 분산제 유무에 따른 방사공정성의 차이는 없는 것으로 보인다. 따라서 #1 M/B 대비 공정성이 개선된 점은 M/B의 IV개선에 기인하는 것으로 판단되었다.

This study exploits the robot system which is necessary in gene study and bio-technology industry. As well, a DNA chip, which of use has been increased recently, can be manufactured with this system. The robot consists of a device spotting DNA on the silylated slide, a well plate, a bed for fixing well plates, devices of washing and drying the pin in DNA spotting .device, a distillation-water vessel, and a discharge vessel of wash water. We made the period of sticking DNA to the pin on the well plate to be 15 seconds. The spot size of DNA was set to be 0.28 mm on the average by bringing the slide into contact with pin during 1 second. If DNA is spotted in minimum space possible about 0.32mm, this system can stick about 8,100 DNA spots on the well plate with this rate. Analyzing the procedure: Movement starts, Pin washes, dries, and smears DNA on the well plate. Spotting DNA onto 12 chips took 2 minutes and 50 seconds.

In this study, we have developed a simple and cost-effective method to prevent edge bead formation by covering the edge of a chip-level substrate with heat-resistant tape during patterning using SU-8. Edge beads are a fundamental problem in photoresists and are particularly notable in high-viscosity fluids and thick coatings. Edge beads can give rise to an air gap between the substrate and the patterning mask during UV exposure, which results in non-uniform patterns. Furthermore, the sample may break since the edge bead is in contact with the mask. In particular, the SU-8 coating thickness of the chip-level substrates used in MEMS or BioMEMS may not be properly controlled because of the presence of edge beads. The proposed method to solve the edge bead problem can be easily and economically utilized without the need for a special device or chemicals. This method is simple and prevents edge bead formation on the sample substrate. Despite the small loss in the taping area, the uniformity of the SU-8 coating is improved from 50.9% to 5.6%.

For the quantitative analysis of an unknown sample a calibration curve should be obtained, as analytical instruments give relative, rather than absolute measurements. Therefore, researchers should make standard samples with various known concentrations, measure each standard and the unknown sample, and then determine the concentration of the unknown by comparing the measured value to those of the standards. These procedures are tedious and time-consuming. Therefore, we developed a polymer based microfluidic device from polydimethylsiloxane, which integrates serial dilution and capillary electrophoresis functions in a single device. The integrated microchip can provide a one-step analytical tool, and thus replace the complex experimental procedures. Two plastic syringes, one containing a buffer solution and the other a standard solution, were connected to two inlet holes on a microchip, and pushed by a hydrodynamic force. The standard sample is serially diluted to various concentrations through the microfluidic networks. The diluted samples are sequentially introduced through microchannels by electro-osmotic force, and their laser-induced fluorescence signals measured by capillary electrophoresis. We demonstrate the integrated microchip performance by measuring the fluorescence signals of fluorescein at various concentrations. The calibration curve obtained from the electropherograms showed the expected linearity.

Brain disorders such as epilepsy is a condition that affects an estimated 2.7 million Americans, 50,000,000 worldwide, approximately 200,000 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed each year. Of the major chronic medical conditions, epilepsy is among the least understood. Scientists are conducting research to determine appropriate treatments, such as the use of drugs, vagus nerve stimulation, brain stimulation, and Peltier chip-based focal cooling. However, brain stimulation and Peltier chip-based stimulation processes cannot effectively stop seizures. This paper presents simulation of a novel heat enchanger network(HEN) technique designed to stop seizures by using a neural cooling probe to stop focal and spontaneous seizures by cooling the brain. The designed probe was composed of a U-shaped tube through which cold fluid flowed in order to reduce the temperature of the brain. The simulation results demonstrated that the neural probe could cool a 7 $mm^2$ area of the brain when the fluid was flowing atb a velocity of 0.55 m/s. It also showed that the neural cooling probe required 23 % less energy to produce cooling when compared to the Peltier chip-based cooling system.

본 연구는 딸기재배시 전용 고설베드를 사용하지 않고, 일반 수경재배 시설을 이용하여 코이어 배지를 베드에 올려 재배하는 방법을 구명하기 위해서 실시하였다. 토마토나 파프리카를 재배하는 시설재배 베드에 코이어의 칩과 더스트 비율이 5:5인 코이어 배지 1겹처리(높이 10cm; A), 2겹으로 쌓은 처리(높이 20cm; B), 코이어의 칩과 더스트 비율이 7:3인 코이어 배지 1겹처리(높이 15cm; C)와 대조구로는 딸기 전용 플라스틱 화분(Control) 처리구로 하였다. 생육특성은 코이어 배지 높이별로는 유의성이 없었고, 플라스틱 화분에서 재배한 것이 작은 경향을 보였다. 딸기 잎의 광합성율은 처리별로 14.68-15.76µmol CO₂·m^-2·s^-1로 통계적인 유의성은 없었고, 뿌리의 근활력은 배지 용량이 컸던 C와 B 처리구가 A 처리구와 대조구보다는 높은 것으로 나타났다. 과장과 과폭은 각각4.04-4.13cm와 3.26-3.34cm로 통계적인 유의성이 없었고, 과장과 과폭 비율은 대조구가 1.27로 A-C 처리구의 1.23-1.24보다 뾰쪽한 형태이었다. 딸기 1주당 수확과수는 C 처리구가 4.4개로 가장 적었고, 대조구, A, B 처리구의 6.2-6.5개로 처리간 유의성은 없었다. 상품수량 과수는 A 처리구가 74개로 가장 많았고, C 처리구가 53개로 가장 적었으며, 1주당 수량은 A 처리구가 72.38g으로 가장 컸고, C 처리구가 48.69g으로 가장 작았다. 이와 같은 결과는 딸기재배 시 전용재배 시설을 설치하지 않고, 기존의 토마토나 파프리카 수경재배 시설에서 코이어 배지를 활용하여 딸기재배를 할 수 있다는 것을 나타낸다. 다만 C 처리구에서 수량이 감소한 것은 칩과 더스트 비율이 7:3으로, A와 B 처리구의 칩과 더스트 비율이 5:5와 다른 것이 원인으로 추정되며 칩과 더스트 비율에 따른 추가 연구가 필요하다.

This study was conducted to develop recycle revegetation methods for the restoration of the steep slopes by using fresh wood chip from construction sites. In general, the fresh wood chips can be used as soil media for the restoration works, because they can increase infiltration of rainfall and give enough porous to breathe and elongate for the root growth as well as economic value. The experiment was carried out to compare the effect of fresh wood chips from different mixing with soil, organic material and macromolecular compound which used for slope restoration works conducted by Hyunwoo green(Ltd.). The main results by monitoring for two years are summarized as follows; 1. The soil media made with low percentage of fresh wood chip covered quickly by herb plants. Especially, the soil mixture Type C (wood chip 20%) showed 80 percent ground coverage within two months after seeding. 2. The soil mixture type E (wood chip 40%) and type F (wood chip 50%) which contains more fresh wood chips than soil type C was under 30 percent ground coverage because wood plants are germinated well. If the restoration works aims at making forest, then the soil type E and F would be recommended than using soil type C. 3. Among the woody plants, Ailanthus alfissima, Pinus rigida, Pinus densiflora, and Albizzia julibrissin showed high percentage of germination rates and vigorous growth. In case of shrubs, Lespedeza cyrtobotria and Indigofera pseudo-tintoria scored high percentage of germination rates. 4. In native plants, Chrysanthemum indicum, Artemisia princeps, Lutos corniculatus and Imperata cylindrica showed high percentage of appearance. In case of introduced herbs, Coreopsis lanceolata, Coreopsis tinctoria and Oenothera oborata grew so vigorously. 5. The soil types which including fresh wood chips over 30-40 percentage showed the most diverse plant composition and the most effective germination rates and growth pattern with woody plants. 6. This works to develop recycle revegetation methods using fresh wood chips need more efforts for monitoring the exact effect of fresh wood chips as the soil media.

감성과학은 현대 사회에서 점차 중요한 부분을 차지하고 있는 과학, 공학적 영역이다. 감성은 외부의 물리/화학적인 자극에 대한 인간 내부의 고차원적인 심리적 체험으로 기쁨, 슬픔, 쾌적, 불쾌 등에 대한 복합적인 감정이라 할 수 있다. 그러나 감성연구의 가장 큰 어려움은 측정의 문제이다. 기존 감성 측정은 자기보고, 인터뷰, 뇌파 및 자율 신경계 반응, 심장혈관 활동도 등에 국한되어 있고 여전히 객관적인 측정이라 할 수 없다. 따라서 우리는 혈액, 침, 땀 등의 체액을 이용해 실시간으로 인간의 감성을 정확하게 측정하는 Eomotion-on-a-chip (EOC)로 명명한 새로운 이름의 바이오칩 기술에 대해 제안한다. EOC는 감성을 측정하기 위한 바이오 마커와 신호를 얻기 위한 전극, 신호를 변환하기 위한 변환기, 그리고 측정의 결과를 보여주는 부분으로 구성된다. 최근 나노/마이크로 기술의 발달은 체액 내 감성 바이오 마커를 찾아내고 그것의 유무와 뇌과학 연구결과와 의 상관관계를 규명하고 미래에 피 한 방울로 인간의 심리상태를 정확히 파악 할 수 있는 초소형 감성진단칩을 개발하게 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 이제 막 연구가 시작되고 있는 미래 바이오칩기술의 하나인 EOC의 개념을 보고하는 리뷰논문이다.

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-on-a-chip (EOC) biosensor combined with cell concentration technology based on immuno-magnetic separation (IMS) was investigated for use as a potential tool for early screening of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) in food products. The target analyte is a well-known pathogenic foodborne microorganism and outbreaks of the food poisoning typically occur due to contamination of normal food products. Thus, the aim of this study was to develop a rapid and reliable sensor that could be utilized on a daily basis to test food products for the presence of this pathogenic microorganism. The sensor was optimized to provide a high detection capability (e.g., 5.9 ${\times}\;10^3$ cells/mL) and, to eventually minimize cultivation time. The cell density was condensed using IMS prior to analysis. Since the concentration rate of IMS was greater than 100-fold, this combination resulted in a detection limit of 54 cells/mL. The EOC-IMS coupled analytical system was then applied to a real sample test of fish intestines. The system was able to detect L. monocytogenes at a concentration of 2.4 CFU/g after pre-enrichment for 6 h from the onset of cell cultivation. This may allow us to monitor the target analyte at a concentration less than 1 CFU/g within a 9 h-cultivation provided a doubling time of 40 min is typically maintained. Based on this estimation, the EOC-IMS system can screen and detect the presence of this microorganism in food products almost within working hours.

A unified potentiostat circuit for both $O_2$- and $H_2O_2$- based electrochemical glucose sensors was proposed and its function was verified by circuit simulations and measurement results of a fabricated chip. This circuit consisted of an operational amplifier, a comparator and current mirrors. The proposed circuit was fabricated with a $0.13{\mu}m$ thick oxide CMOS process and an active area of $360{\mu}m{\times}100{\mu}m$. The measurements revealed an input operation range from 0.5 V to 1.6 V in the $H_2O_2$- based bio-sensor and from 1.7 V to 2.6 V in the $O_2$- based bio-sensor with a supply voltage of 3.3 V. The evaluation results showed that the proposed potentiostat circuit is suitable for measuring the electrochemical cell currents of both $O_2$- and $H_2O_2$- based glucose sensors.
