In this research, amophous carbon films (a-C, a-C:H, a-C:N) were synthesized by closed-field unbalanced magnetron (CFUBM) sputtering using graphite target. We also fabricated amorphous carbon films with applying negative DC bias voltage of 200 V in during the deposition in working pressure. Also, a-C:H and a-C:N films was synthesized by adding acethylene($C_{2}H_{2}$) and nitrogen(N) gases of 4 and 3 sccm into Ar pressure. The a-C:H film synthesized at -200 V exhibited the maxumum hardness of 26.3 GPa, the smooth surface of 0.1 nm and the good adhesion of 30.5 N. And a-C:N film synthesized at -200 V exhibited at -200 V exhibited the best adhesion of 32 N. This paper examined the effect of $C_{2}H_{2}$ gas, $N_{2}$ gas and negative DC bias voltage as the parameter for improving the physical properties and the relation between structral and physical properties of carbon films.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the thermal resistance and the liquid/vapor water transfer characteristics of four waterproof and water vapor permeable coated fabrics with the ground fabric called nylon taffeta. In order to establish the experimental environment, outdoor temperature and humidity in Taegu during the last three years were examined and the experiment was performed at (1) $15^{\circ}C$, 50% R.H., (2) $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H., (3) $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H., which were the average standards in spring and fall. The test results were as follows ; 1. Among physical parameters, the thinner the thickness was, the higher the water vapor permeability was. But the porosity in thickness was not proportional to water vapor permeability linearly. 2. The thicker the thickness of specimens was and the smaller the bulk density and porosity were, the higher the thermal resistance. And the results also shown that the larger the temperature difference between the environmental temperature and the hot plate was, the more the difference of CLO values was apparent. 3. Since the contact angle of all specimens are above $90^{\circ}$, the all specimens have a good performance in waterproof. The more the specimens surface were rough, the higher the thermal resistance was. 4. According to the result of performing moisture transfer test using the simulating body skin-clothing-environment system, the humidity sensor placed in between the fabric and the environment detected the full saturation in 10 minutes after the experiment had began at $15^{\circ}C$, 50% R.H. and in 15 minutes after the experiment both at $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H. and at $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H. 5. ${\Delta}$ values of the humidity sensors placed in between the human body and the fabric and in between the fabric and the environment fluctuated repeatedly within the range of $20{\sim}40%$ at $20^{\circ}C$, 60% R.H., and $15{\sim}30%$ at $25^{\circ}C$, 65% R.H.

In this study, a method to reduce temperature rise due to hydration in mass concrete is investigated. It is to use retarder (glucose) for reducing heat of hydration and to use calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) for compensating the retardation effect due to its role as a nucleation seed. For this purpose, the temperature rise of cement paste due to hydration was measured and the effect of using both C-S-H and glucose on setting and 28-day compressive strength of mortar specimens was investigated. According to the experimental results, using C-S-H and glucose caused the reduction in the maximum temperature but accelerated the time to reach the maximum temperature compared to that of retarded cement paste using glucose. In addition, using C-S-H and glucose did not show significant effect on 28-day compressive strength of mortar specimens, indicating that the method shown in this study can be a successful alternative to control maximum temperature rise in mass concrete.

Several physicochemical properties including water solubility, vapor pressure, and hydrolysis of bistrifluron benzoylphenylurea insecticide developed in Korea, were measured based on OECD guidelines for testing of chemicals and Toxic Substances Control Act Test guidelines. Water solubility was low showing 30 ${\mu}g/l$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and in hydrolysis study, half-life at $20^{\circ}C$ was 10.9 days (pH 9.0) and was stable in pH 7.0 solution. At $40^{\circ}C$ hydrolysis rate was 20.6 days (pH 7.0) and 1.5 days (pH 9.0). The vapor pressure of bistrifluron was not obtained from vapor pressure experiments at $25^{\circ}C$ because the bistrifluron was not detected. Therefore, the vapor pressure was determined to be ${\leq}\;2.05{\times}10^{-8}$ torr which was calculated to apply the detection limit (50 ng) of bistrifluron. And this value is suggests it would not give environmental contamination by volatilization.

The structures, the energetics, and the spectra of K+(H2O)3 have been studied at HF and MP2 levels with the basis set of triple-zeta plus two sets of polarization functions (TZ2P) for water molecules. Two structures considered are 3+0 (D3), and 2+1 (C2v). The 2+1 (C2v) has two hydrogen bonds between the primary hydration and the secondary hydration shell water molecules. They have similar binding energy and enthalpy. The most stable conformation of K+(H2O)3 is entropy driven as shown in Na+(H2O)5 and in Na+(H2O)6 cases. The 3+0 (D3) conformation is the most stable at 298 K and at 1 atm, based on Gibbs free energy changes (ΔGr). The thermal contributions to the enthalpy and the Gibbs free energy are corrected for the low frequency modes. The corrected ΔGr is in good agreement with the experimental value. Vibrational frequencies of two conformations are revealed as their characteristics.

The T-type amino acid transporter 1 (TATI) is a Na$^{+}$-independent amino acid transporter which selectively trans- ports aromatic amino acids subserving the amino acid transport system T. To understand the transport properties of aromatic amino acids by human TAT1 (hTATl ), we have examined the hTATl -mediated aromatic amino acid transports using a Xenopus laeuis oocyte expression system. When expressed in Xenopin laeuis oocytes, hTATl induced L- [$^{14}$ C]tryptophan transport which was not dependent on Na$^{+}$ or Cl$^{[-10]}$ in the medium. Uptake was time-dependent and exhibited a linear dependence on incubation time up to 30 min. The L- ($^{14}$ C)tryptophan uptake was highly inhibited by L-isomers of tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylalanine, whereas other L-amino acids did not inhibit hTATl -mediated L- ($^{14}$ C)tryptophan uptake. The hTATl induced the relatively low-affinity transport of aromatic amino acids such as L- ($^{14}$ C)tryptophan, L- ($^{14}$ C)tyrosine and L- ($^{14}$ C)phenylalanine (Km values: 450～750 $\mu$M), consistent with the properties of classical amino acid transport system T. The L- ($^{14}$ C)tryptophan uptake did not show any remarkable pH dependence within the pH range of 5.5 to 8.5. The time-dependent efflux of L- ($^{14}$ C)tryptophan was detected from the oocytes expressing hTATl, which was not affected by the presence or absence of L-tryptophan in the extracellular medium, indicating that hTATl-mediated transport is due to the facilitated diffusion. Expression of hTATl in Xenopu laevis oocytes induced the transport of tryptophan, tyrosine and phenylalanine, indicating that hTATl is a transporter subserving system T These results suggest that hTATl has essential roles in the absorption of aromatic amino acids from epithelial cells to the blood stream. Hecause hTATl is proposed to be crucial to the efficient absorption of aromatic amino acids from intestine and kidney, its defect such as blue diaper syndrome could be involved in the disruption of aromatic amino acid transport.ort.

Fatty acid compositions of the seed oils of P. schinseng, A. continentalis and A. sessiliflorus, were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) equipped with a capillary column. A large unusual peak was observed just before the peak corresponding to oleic acid $(cis-9-C_{18:1})$. This unknown fatty acid was isolated by silver ion chromatography and then derivatized into the picolinyl ester. The mass spectrum of the picolinyl ester showed molecular ion at m/z=373 with other diagnostic ions such as m/z=178, 218, 232, 246, 274, 288, 302 and 344. Characteristic absorption peaks at $720\;cm^{-1}$, $1640\;cm^{-1}$ and $3010\;cm^{-1}$ in IR spectrum indicated the presence of cis-configurational double bond in the molecule. The $^1H-NMR$ spectrum of this acid gave two quintets centered at ${\delta}1.638$ (2H, C-3) and ${\delta}1.377$ (2H, C-4), and two multiplets centered at ${\delta}2.022{\sim}2.047$ (2H, C-5) and ${\delta}2.000{\sim}2.022$ (2H, C-8), and multiplet signals of olefinic protons centered at ${\delta}5.3015{\sim}5.3426$ (C-6, J=9.5 Hz) and ${\delta}\;5.3465{\sim}5.3877$ (C-7, J=9.5 Hz). The $^13C-NMR$ spectrum showed 18 carbon resonance signals including an overlapped signal at ${\delta}29.7002$ for C-12 and ${\delta}29.6520$ for C-13 (or they can be reversed), and other highly resolved signals at ${\delta}33.950$, ${\delta}24.558$, ${\delta}26.773$ and ${\delta}27.205$ due to C-2, C-3, C-5 and C-8 of a ${\Delta}^6-octadecenoic$ acid, respectively. From analysis results this unknown fatty acid could be identified as cis-6-octadecenoic acid. The seed oils of P. schinseng and A. sessiliflorus contained petroselinic acid (59.7%, 56.0%), oleic acid (18.3%, 6.1%) and linoleic acid (16.2%, 30.4%) with small amount of palmitic acid (3.0%, 3.1%) while the seed oil of A. continentalis comprised mainly oleic acid (30.2%), petroselinic acid (29.0%), linoleic acid (24.1%) and palmitic acid (13.1%).

The formation of aldehydes as by-product was investigated in the treatment of humic acid by Ozone/GAC hybrid process. Ozone/GAC hybrid process was operated under varying initial pH (pH 3~pH 11) and temperature ($0^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$, $40^{\circ}C$) at an ozone dose of 0.08 g $O_3/g$ DOC and GAC amount of 16.5 v/v%. The results were compared with those of GAC adsorption and ozone alone process. The formed aldehydes were derivatized by PFBOA method and quantified by GC/PDECD. Formaldehyde and glyoxal were identified as the substantial aldehydes in the treatment of humic acid by ozone/GAC hybrid process. Quantities of formaldehyde and glyoxal formed in ozone/GAC hybrid process were less than one in ozone alone process. In ozone/GAC hybrid process, formaldehyde was produced with a considerable concentration of 400 ppb at pH 11 and pH 7 at the beginning of the treatment, and then the concentration was decreased with time. And, the concentrations of formaldehyde and glyoxal were increased with an increase of temperature. They were respectively 520 ppb and 120 ppb at the beginning of the treatment at $40^{\circ}C$.
