The effects of aqueous calcium oxide (CaO) treatment on the quality characteristics and shelf life of mulberry (Morus alba L.) were investigated. Mulberry fruits were immersed in 0, 0.5, 1, and $2g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ CaO solutions for 0, 1, 3, 6, and 12 min. Mulberries were then rinsed with potable tap water for 1 min and stored at $-1^{\circ}C$ for 14 days. CaO treatment was effective at promoting the retention of titratable acid, pH, and ascorbic acid as well as total flavonoid contents. CaO concentration and treatment time were significant factors affecting the sensory qualities of the fruits, including off-odor, flavor, and texture. For shelf life determinations, the total bacterial count was reduced by CaO treatment so that the samples treated with $1g{\cdot}L^{-1}$ CaO for 12 min had bacterial levels at 14 days comparable to those of the control at 4 day, and no coliform group was detected after CaO treatment. These results indicate that calcium oxide treatment is a promising approach for the preservation of mulberry fruit.

Nitric Oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule in the nociceptive process. Our previous study suggested that high concentrations of sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a NO donor, induce a membrane hyperpolarization and outward current through large conductances calcium-activated potassium ($BK_{ca}$) channels in substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons. In this study, patch clamp recording in spinal slices was used to investigate the sources of $Ca^{2+}$ that induces $Ca^{2+}$-activated potassium currents. Application of SNP induced a membrane hyperpolarization, which was significantly inhibited by hemoglobin and 2-(4-carboxyphenyl) -4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3-oxide potassium salt (c-PTIO), NO scavengers. SNP-induced hyperpolarization was decreased in the presence of charybdotoxin, a selective $BK_{Ca}$ channel blocker. In addition, SNP-induced response was significantly blocked by pretreatment of thapsigargin which can remove $Ca^{2+}$ in endoplasmic reticulum, and decreased by pretreatment of dentrolene, a ryanodine receptors (RyR) blocker. These data suggested that NO induces a membrane hyperpolarization through $BK_{ca}$ channels, which are activated by intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ increase via activation of RyR of $Ca^{2+}$ stores.

The effects of fillers on the mechanical and thermal properties of glass/novolac composites have been studied. The matrix polymer and reinforcement were novolac type phenolic resin and milled glass fiber, respectively. Three different fillers, such as calcium carbonate, aluminum oxide, and wood powder were used for glass fiber reinforced plastic(GFRP) manufacture. Gravity, moisture content, tensile and flexural strength were measured to analyze the mechanical properties of GFRP and the final composites was burned in the electronic furnace at $1000^{\circ}C$ to confirm thermal properties GFRP containing aluminium oxide shows the highest thermal stability with 32% of weight loss at $1000^{\circ}C$ for one hour. GFRP containing calcium carbonate shows the maximum flexural strength (146 MPa), but that containing wood powder dose the highest tensile strength (65 MPa). Conclusively, we found that the characteristics of final composites strongly depend on several factors, such as types of materials, contents and chemical affinity of fillers. Therefore, it is very important to set up the combination of fillers for GFRP manufacturing to improve both mechanical and thermal properties at the same time.

To produce alloy powders with only Sm$_2$Fe$_{17}$ single phase by reduction-diffusion (R-D) method, the effect of excess samarium oxide on the preparation of Sm-Fe alloy powder during R-D heat treatment was studied. The quantity of samarium oxide was varied from 5% to 50% whereas iron and calcium were taken 0% and 200% in excess of chemical equivalent, respectively. The pellet type mixture of samarium, iron powders and calcium granulars was subjected to heat treatment at 1100$^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours. The R-D treated pellet was moved into deionized water and agitated to separate Sm-Fe alloy powders. After washing them in deionized water several times, the powders were washed with acetic acid to remove the undesired reaction products such as CaO. By these washing and acid cleaning treatment, only 0.03 wt% calcium remained in Sm-Fe alloy powders. It was also confirmed that the content of unreacted $\alpha$-Fe in Sm$_2$Fe$_{17}$ matrix gradually decreased as the percentage of samarium oxide is increased. However, there was no significant change above 40% excess samarium oxide.

매년 막대한 양이 폐기되어져 환경오염 문제를 유발시키는 굴껍질에 다량 함유되어 있는 칼슘 성분을 체내 칼슘 공급원으로 이용하기 위하여 굴껍질을 $1200^{\circ}C$로 소성 가공시켜 $98.6\%$의 수율로 산화칼슘을 만들었고, 이로부터 $CaCl_2$과 $CaHPO_4$ 등과 같은 칼슘화합물을 제조하였다. 여러 가지 효소로 가수분해시켜 얻은 어피 젤라틴 유래 펩티드를 굴껍질 유래 칼슘화합물들에 대한 칼슘 흡수 촉진제로 사용하였는데, in vitro 실험 결과 참치 유문 수 유래 조효소인 TPCCE를 사용하여 4시간 동안 가수분해시켜 얻은 어피 젤라틴 펩티드가 가장 뛰어난 $CaHPO_4$ 침전 저지 효과를 나타내었으며, 무첨가와 비교했을 때 $70\%$의 상승 효과를 나타내었다. 이상의 결과들을 바탕으로 칼슘을 결핍시킨 수컷 흰쥐(SD-Dawley male rats)를 이용하여 in vivo에서 칼슘 흡수 촉진 실험을 실시한 결과, 칼슘 흡수 촉진제로 어피 젤라틴 펩티드가 첨가된 굴껍질 유래 칼슘화합물을 섭취시킨 군들은 대조군에 비해 유의적으로 높은 칼슘 및 회분량을 나타내었으며, $1\%$보다는 $3\%$의 펩티드를 섭취시킨 군들이 좋은 것으로 나타났다. 또한 $CaCl_2$ 섭취군 보다는 $CaHPO_4$ 섭취군들에게서 더 뛰어난 촉진 효과를 볼 수 있었다. 또한 분으로의 칼슘 배출은 대조군의 약 $50\%$이하로 나타나는 것으로 보아 소장내 불용화 칼슘의 형성에 매우 뛰어난 효과를 갖는 것으로 나타났다.

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was developed in early 1990s and has been successfully used for root perforation repair, root end filling, and one-visit apexification. MTA is composed mainly of tricalcium silicate and dicalcium silicate. When MTA is hydrated, calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) and calcium hydroxide is formed. Formed calcium hydroxide interacts with the phosphate ion in body fluid and form amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) which finally transforms into calcium deficient hydroxyapatite (CDHA). These mineral precipitate were reported to form the MTA-dentin interfacial layer which enhances the sealing ability of MTA. Clinically, the use of zinc oxide euginol (ZOE) based materials may retard the setting of MTA. Also, the use of acids or contact with excessive blood should be avoided before complete set of MTA, because these conditions could adversely affect the hydration reaction of MTA. Further studies on the chemical nature of MTA hydration reaction are needed.

본 연구의 목적은 외부에서 nitric oxide (NO)를 투여 하였을때 심근 수축력, 심박동수의 변화 및 혈관 평활근에 대한 효과를 비교함으로서 NO에 대한 이들 장기의 민감도가 서로 같은지 또는 상이한지를 알아보고자 하였다. 본 실험에서는 PIANO 방법에 의한 근장력의 변화와 아울러 심근에서의 $Ca^{2+}$ current를 측정하였다. 랫트의 심방근에 대한 PIANO $(STZ,\;100\;{\mu}M)$는 심근수축력 및 심박동수에 전혀 변화를 주지 않았지만 혈관 평활근에서는 강한 이완 작용을 나타내었다. 한편, 8-Br-cGMP도 고농도 $(100\;{\mu}M)$에서만 심근 수축력을 억제하였다. 토끼의 심방근세포에서 Whole cell voltage patch clamp를 사용시 bradykinin, SNP, 8-Br-cGMP 및 PIANO는 $Ca^{2+}$ current를 억제하였다. 이러한 사실은 외부에서 공급되는 NO에 대한 심근과 혈관 평활근의 반응에는 민감도의 차이가 있음을 암시하며 더 나아가 심근의 경우에도 NO 반응에는 종 (species)간의 차이와 동일 종이라 하더라도 세포(cell)와 장기(tissue)에 차이가 있을 가능성을 제시하였다.

Bioremediation in situ is heavily dependent on the oxygenic environment which would privide the dwelling microorganism with sufficient oxygen. The situation could be easily resolved with supply of an Oxygen Releasing Compound (ORC). In this paper we prepared that sort of material out of oyster shell powder (mostly calcium carbonate) that prevails every shore areas of the country. We used two different oxidizing methods in the first step of the whole manufacturing process-conventional heating in a furnace and an ultrasound generator to obtain calcium oxide. Then that calcium oxide was further oxidized into calcium peroxide which may release oxygen under a moisturized condition. The oxygen releasing experiments were run to test the performance of our products, and to determine the gas kinetics during the experiments. Interestingly, calcium peroxide derived from ultrasound treatment was much more energy-effective as ORC than that from furnace heating although the heat derived process was better than that of ultrasound in terms of oxygen content and its releasing rate. We also found that most of the data collected from the gas releasing experiments fairly supported an ordinary $1^{st}$ order kinetics to oxygen concentration, which shaped a sharp discharge of oxygen at the very early moment of each test.

We have investigated the CMP slurry properties of silicate oxide thin films surface on CMP cleaning process. The metallic contaminations by CMP slurry were evaluated in four different oxide films, such as plasma enhanced tetra-ethyl-ortho-silicate glass(PE-TEOS), $O_3$ boro-phospho silicate giass( $O_3$-BPSG), PE-BPSG, and phospho-silicate glass(PSG). All films were polished with KOH-based slurry prior to entering the post-CMP cleaner. The Total X-Ray Fluorescence(TXRF) measurements showed that all oxide surfaces are heavily contaminated by potassium and calcium during polishing, which is due to a CMP slurry. The polished $O_3$-BPSG films presented higher potassium and calcium contaminations compared to PE-TEOS because of a mobile ions gettering ability of phosphorus. For PSG oxides, the slurry induced mobile ion contamination increased with an increase of phosphorus contents.
