A high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of glycyrrhizic acid was developed for the quality control of traditional herbal medicinal preparation Bu-Zhong-Yi-Qi-Tang (BZYQT), which is well-known herbal medicine used as tonic. RP-HPLC analysis was carried out using Capcell pak $C_{18}$ MG column $(5\;{\mu},\;150{\times}4.6\;mm)$ and a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and water containing 0.03% phosphoric acid (pH 2.46) at a flow rate of 1.0 ml/min. The optimum wavelength for the detection of the glycyrrhizic acid was found at 250 nm using diode-array UV/VIS detector. The glycyrrhizic acid in BZYQT shows good linearity $(r^2>0.999)$ in the range of $15\;{\mu}g/ml$ to 500 ${\mu}g/ml$. The limit of detection (LOD) was less than 5 ng and R.S.D for intra-day and inter-day reproducibility was less than 7%. The mean recovery of the glycyrrhizic acid was $97.3{\sim}113.0%$. These results suggest that the developed HPLC method is simple and efficient, and could be contributed for the quality control of commercial BZYQT products.

We have fabricated a low-noise 61-channel axial-type first-order gradiometer system for measuring fetal magnetocardiography(MCG) signals. Superconducting quantum interference device(SQUID) sensor was based on double relaxation oscillation SQUID(DROS) for detecting biomagnetic signal, such as MCG, magnetoencphalogram(MEG) and fetal-MCG. The SQUID sensor detected axial component of fetal MCG signal. The pickup coil of SQUID sensor was wound with 120 ${\mu}m$ NbTi wire on bobbin(20 mm diameter) and was a first-order gradiometer to reject the environment noise. The sensors have low white noise of 3 $fT/Hz^{1/2}$ at 100 Hz on average. The fetal MCG was measured from $24{\sim}36$ weeks fetus in a magnetically shielded room(MSR) with shielding factor of 35 dB at 0.1 Hz and 80 dB at 100 Hz(comparatively mild shielding). The MCG signal contained maternal and fetal MCG. Fetal MCG could be distinguished relatively easily from maternal MCG by using independent component analysis(ICA) filter. In addition, we could observe T peak as well as QRS wave, respectively. It will be useful in detecting fetal cardiac diseases.

The main colorant of Chelidonium majus extracts is a berberine which shows relatively good dyeability onto silk fabrics in the appropriate dyeing conditions without mordant, But cotton fabrics are difficult to dye with berberine because of the low substantivity the cationic to cellulosic fibers. we treated cotton fabrics using three types of polycarboxylic acid, DL-malic acid, citric acid, 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid(BTCA) to increase dyeability of Chelidonium majus extracts onto cotton fabrics. As a result the cotton fabrics treated with polycarboxylic acid could be dyed with Chelidonium majus extracts and also showed yellow vividly. The dye uptake were increased with increasing the number of carboxy groups. And so dye uptake resulted the largest in the BTCA solutions which have four carboxylic groups in the molecular unit. The optimal dyeing temperature a of Chelidonium majus extracts onto polycarboxylic acid treated cotton fabrics were $60^{\circ}C$. The dye equilibrium was reached 20 minutes after dyeing. Neutral pH of dye solutions showed in higher K/S value than acidic or alkaline conditions. But the colorfastness to washing and light according to polycarboxylic acid treat was not enhance.

A solar air heater was designed for supplementary domestic heating. The absorber plate had a series of protruding notches which had triangular openings on the front surface of the absorber plate to direct partial air flow to the rear surface and to enhance the convective heat transfer to the flowing air. The height of the opening as well as the opening configuration was determined by preceding numerical simulations. The experimental model had an absorber plate of 0.78-m width and 1.0-m length which was coated with black paint. The air temperature increased as much as $18^{\circ}C$ for $90-m^3/h$ flow rate when the absorber plate was inclined by $45^{\circ}$ for a clear-day solar irradiation of about $906W/m^2$. The collector efficiency ranged from 69 to 74%. Considering the simplicity of the structure and low manufacturing cost, the solar air heater might have competence as an auxiliary heating device for domestic use. On-site experimental results are presented with discussion for various solar irradiations and air flow conditions.

그라파이트 산화물(graphite oxide;G.O)는 그라파이트와는 다르게 물에서의 분산 능력이 뛰어나고 다양한 기판상에 단일 G.O layer를 형성할 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 유연(flexible)하고 투명(transparent)하기 때문에 다양한 전 자기 디바이스에 적용 가능하다. 특히, 최근 자성산화물 나노입자(magnetic oxide nanoparticles)에 대한 연구가 집중되고 있는데, 이러한 자성 나노입자와 G.O와의 복합체에 대한 연구는 다양한 분야로의 적용성에 대한 새로운 길을 열어주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화학적 처리법을 적용하여 자성 나노입자(Co 나노입자)와 G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. Natural Graphite powder (N.G)에 $H_2O_4$ (98%) 및 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$를 적정 몰비로 첨가하여 반응 시킨 후 공기 중에서 열처리 공정을 수행하여 expanded graphite (E.G)를 제조 하였다. 열처리된 E.G를 $1,050^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 15~30초 및 30~60초 동안 공기 중에서 열처리 하여 expanded graphite oxide (E.G.O)를 제조하였으며, E.G.O와 $Co(acac)_3$의 화학적 반응을 통하여 Co 자성나노입자-G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. N.G, E.G, E.G.O 및 E.G.O+Co입자의 결정구조 분석을 위하여 XRD 측정을 수행하였으며, FTIR을 이용하여 각 단계에서의 반응성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 각 단계에서 표면 및 내부 미세구조 특성 분석을 위하여 SEM, TEM, 및 EDX 분석을 수행하였으며, E.G.O+Co 복합체의 자기적 특성 평가를 위하여VSM (vibrating sample magnetometer) 측정을 수행하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 향후 자성나노입자와 그라핀과의 복합화를 위한 기저 기술로 활용가능하리라 판단된다.

The effects of conventional rolling (CR) and differential speed rolling (DSR) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of a copper alloy sheet were investigated in detail. A copper alloy with thickness of 3 mm was rolled to a 50% reduction at ambient temperature without lubrication with a differential speed ratio of 2:1; sample was then annealed for 0.5h at various temperatures from 100 to $800^{\circ}C$. Conventional rolling, in which the rolling speed of the upper and lower rolls is identical, was performed under the same rolling conditions. The shear strain introduced by the CR showed positive values at positions on the upper roll side and negative values at positions on the lower roll side. However, the shear strain showed a zero or positive value at all positions for the samples rolled by the DSR. The microstrucure and mechanical properties of the as-rolled copper alloy did not show very significant differences between the CR and DSR for the microstructure and mechanical properties. However, those properties showed very significant differences in the case of the annealed samples. The effects of rolling method on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the as-rolled and subsequently annealed materials are discussed in terms of the shear strain.

The usual ceramic process of mixing and milling in state of oxides $ZrO_2$ and $CeO_2$ was adopted in this study in a wet process to manufacture Ce-TZP. $CeO_2$-$ZrO_2$ ceramics containing 8~20 mol% $CeO_2$ were made by heat treatment at $1250\sim1500^{\circ}C$ for 5hr. The maximum dispersion point of every slurry manufactured with a mixture of $ZrO_2$ and $CeO_2$ was neat at pH10. A stable slurry with average particle size of 90 nm can be manufactured when it is dispersed with the use of ammonia water and polycarboxylic acid ammonium. The sintered Ce-TZP ceramics manufactured with the addition of $CeO_2$ in a concentration of less than 10 mol% progressed to the fracture of the specimen due to the existence of a monoclinic phase of more than 30% at room temperature. More than 99% of the tetragonal phase was created for the sintered body with the addition of $CeO_2$ beyond 18 mol%, but the degradation of the mechanical properties on the entire specimen was brought about due to the $CeO_2$ existing in a percentage above 3%. Consequently, the optimal Ce-TZP level combined in the oxide state was identified to be 16 mol% of $CeO_2$ contents.

The plastic strain ratio is one of the factors that affect the deep drawability of metal sheets. The plastic strain ratio of fully annealed Cu sheet is low, due to its texture being {001}<100>. In this study, in order to increase the plastic strain ratio of Cu sheets we investigated the effect of two treatments: 1^st the sheet was asymmetrically rolled and annealed, and 2^nd the sheet was symmetrically and asymmetrically rolled and subsequently annealed. The average plastic strain ratio (R_m) of the initial Cu sheet was 0.95 and |Δr| was 1.27. After the 2^nd treatment of 5.3% symmetric rolling and annealing of Cu sheet at 1000℃ for 60 min in Ar gas condition, the R_m was 2.29 times higher and the |Δr| was 1.44 times higher than that of initial Cu sheet specimen. After the 2^nd treatment of 8.2% asymmetric rolling and annealing of Cu sheet at 1000℃ for 60 min in Ar gas conditions, the R_m was 2.51 times higher and |Δr| was 0.53 times lower than that of the initial Cu sheet specimen. These results can be attributed to the change in texture of the Cu sheets due to the differences in the two methods of rolling.

This study was observed the effects of drying methods on the extraction characteristics of Rubi fructus (fruits of Rubus coreanus). Extraction yields of soluble solids and total sugar were high in the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, followed by infrared drying and sun drying. Extraction yield of phenolic compounds and DPPH radical-scavenging activity of extracts were in the following order; the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, the Rubi fructus dried by infrared drying, the Rubi fructus dried by sun drying. L value was the highest in the Rubi fructus dried by freeze drying, and a and b value were lowest in the fruit dried by freeze drying. These results suggest that freeze drying has an beneficial effect to enhance the quality of Rubi fructus. Water and ethanol extractions was more effective in the extraction of soluble solids and the antioxidative components.
