  • Photonic band gap (PBG) materials have been of great interest due to their potential applications in science and technology. Their applications can be further extended when PBG becomes tunable against various chemical and electrical stimuli. In recent, it was found that tunable photonic band gap materials can be achieved by incorporating stimuli-responsive smart gels into PBG materials. For example, the characteristic volume phase transition of gels in response to the various external stimuli including temperature, pH, ionic strength, solvent compositions and electric field were recently combined with the unique optical properties of photonic crystals to form unprecedented highly responsive optical components. Since these responsive photonic crystals are capable of reversibly converting chemical or electrical energy into characteristic optical signals, they have been considered as a good platform for label-free chemical or biological detection, actuators or optical switches as well as a model system for investigating gel swelling behavior. Herein, we report block copolymer photonic gels self-assembled from polystyrene-b-poly (2-vinyl pyridine) (PS-b-P2VP) block copolymers. In this talk, we are going to demonstrate that selective swelling of lamellar structure can be effectively utilized for fabricating PBG materials with extremely large tunability. Optical properties and their applications will be discussed.

  • In this paper, the peak detection algorithm was developed for the purpose of screening of the target compounds. Algorithm is divided into searching the characteristic ion and peak detection. The heuristic knowledge about analytical chemistry was applied for the searching the characteristic ion. Peak detection was accomplished in comparison with the peak identification strings and pattern strings around the retention time. Pattern strings are composed with the number which generated by pattern identification function. The variables of pattern identification function are the codes which represent the difference of two adjacent abundances Some of the free steroids were selected to demonstrate the proposed algorithm.

  • 아까시잎혹파리의 형태, 생태적 특성 및 몇 가지 살충제의 살충활성을 조사하였다. 알은 길쭉한 타원형으로 연한 노란색을 띄다가 부화할 시기가 가까울수록 붉은색이 되며, 장경은 0.4 mm, 단경은 0.1 mm 이었다 유충은 유백색을 띠고, 평균 크기는 2.6 mm 이었다. 번데기는 붉은 기운을 띈 갈색이며 체장은 3.2 mm 내외이었다. 성충의 날개는 검고 배 부분은 붉은색을 띠었다. 암컷의 체장은 3.3 mm 내외로 수컷보다 컸다. 1화기 성충은 땅속에서 우화하여 아까시 나무 어린 잎에 산란을 하고, 2화기 성충부터는 아까시 나무 잎의 벌레 혹에서 바로 우화한다. 암컷 성충의 포란수는 $192.3{\pm}50.7$개 이었다. 1화기는 4월말부터 5월말, 2화기는 5월 말부터 6월 말까지로 약 1개월간 이었고 최성기는 6월 상순이었다. 3화기는 6월 말부터 7월 말까지였다. 알기생봉인 Platygaster robiniae가 동정되었으며, 기생율은 51.6%에 이르렀다. 살충활성을 검정한 결과, 침투이행성 약제인 이미다클로로프리드 10% 수화제와 치아클로프리드 10% 액상수화제가 높은 살충활성을 나타내었으며, 특히 치아클로프리드는 꿀벌에 대한 독성이 낮아 유효한 약제로 판단되었다.

  • 수면뇌파의 해석에 있어서 수면단계는 뇌파의 특성파 검출에 특히 중요하다. 수면단계는 여러 수면질환의 진단에 가장 기초적일 단서를 제공한다. 본 연구에서 수면뇌파 신호를 이산 웨이브렛 변환 뿐 만 아니라 퓨우리에 변환, 연속 웨이브렛 변환을 이용해서 해석하였다. 제안된 시스템 방범인 퓨우리에와 웨이브렛은 수면뇌파의 중요한 특성파(유파, 수면방추파, K복합, 구파 REM) 검출을 위해서 수면상태를 분석했다. 수면뇌파 분석에는 Daubechies 웨이브렛 변환 방법과 고속 퓨우리에를 이용했다. 모의실험결과 신경망 시스템이 특성 파형의 분류에 높은 성능을 발휘함을 알 수 있었다.

  • In the past decade, structural, molecular, and functional changes in glial cells have become a major focus in the search for the neurobiological foundations of schizophrenia. Glial cells, consisting of oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, microglia, and nerve/glial antigen 2-positive cells, constitute a major cell population in the central nervous system. There is accumulating evidence of reduced numbers of oligodendrocytes and altered expression of myelin/oligodendrocyte-related genes that might explain the white matter abnormalities and altered inter- and intra-hemispheric connectivities that are characteristic signs of schizophrenia. Astrocytes play a key role in the synaptic metabolism of neurotransmitters ; thus, astrocyte dysfunction may contribute to certain aspects of altered neurotransmission in schizophrenia. Increased densities of microglial cells and aberrant expression of microglia-related surface markers in schizophrenia suggest that immunological/inflammatory factors are of considerable relevance to the pathophysiology of psychosis. This review describes current evidence for the multifaceted role of glial cells in schizophrenia and discusses efforts to develop glia-directed therapies for the treatment of the disease.

  • Nowadays, Plasma has been used in biological, medical such as wound healing, plant grow, killing cancer. When plasma generated, UV light and ROS(Reactive oxygen species), RNS(Reactive nitrogen species) can generated and those things effect to biological material. So we made simple plasma device using needle type of electrode and generated plasma. We used three kinds of gas and measured applied voltage and current. Also we observed optical emission spectrum. Using deuterium ramp, we can observed absorption spectrum and calculated radical density by lambert-beer's law. It is around ~1016cm3. And we can see the time-resolved absorption spectrum from monochromator, PMT(photo multiply tube), IV-converter, oscilloscope.

  • Strains showing antifungal activity against Cryphonectria parasitica were isolated from coast soil of Taean , Korea. Of 152 strains isolated, 6 strains showed antifungal activity in vitro against C. parasitica. Ta24 strain showed highest activity with 1.6 cm clean inhibition zone. For strain identification, the morphological characteristic and 16S rDNA sequences were determined. Ta24 strain showed 99% homology with Streptomyces sampsonii and was identified as Streptomyces sp.

  • The coordinated mechanism of terrestrial vertebrates enables them to maneuver over all of the terrain conditions since they have a distinct ability to adapt to varying conditions. Their locomotions remain infinitely more advanced and elegant than that of present-day existing mechanical walking robots. However, the principles of existing walking robots are based more on technical rather than on biological concepts, yielding unstable locomotion with low speed. In order to apply these advanced biological phenomena to the mechanical design of 4-legged walking robot, modeling methods are introduced and mathematical equations are also introduced.
