국내에서 발생하는 생활폐기물 발열량이 최근 3,000 kcal/kg 정도를 웃돌고 있고 사업장 폐기물의 경우는 4,000~7,000 kcal/kg 정도로 높아 이러한 가연성 폐기물 들은 자원화하여 에너지원으로 사용가능하다. 폐기물 자원화 기술의 하나인 가스화 기술을 적용하면 폐기물 내의 가연분은 CO, $H_2$가 주성분인 합성가스로 전환되어 화학원료 또는 발전원료로서 활용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 합성가스의 다양한 활용분야 중에서도 메탄올과 CO의 합성을 통해 얻어지는 초산제조 공정에서 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생되는 합성가스 내의 CO를 적용하여 기존 초산제조공정에서 필요한 CO를 생산하기 위해 소모되는 고가의 납사 원료를 절감하고자 하는 방안이 검토되고 있다. 초산은 CO와 메탄올($CH_3OH$)을 금속이온계 귀금속촉매 상에서 메탄올카본닐레이션(Methanol carbonylation)반응으로부터 합성되는 것으로, 초산에스테르, 염료, 안료, 의약품 등의 원료로 사용되는 화학원료이다. 일반적으로 초산을 제조하기 위해 사용되는 CO를 생산하기 위하여 납사(Naptha)를 가스화하는 부분산화공정을 이용하거나 촉매를 사용한 Steam reforming공정을 적용하고 있는데, 가스화 및 Steam reforming의 원료가 되는 납사가 고가이고, 원유가가 상승하면 납사의 가격도 상승할 수 있고, 결국 초산제조 비용의 상승을 초래할 수 있다. 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생하는 합성가스 내의 CO를 활용하여 초산제조의 원료로 사용할 수 있다면 초산제조 공정에서의 CO 제조 비용 절감 및 폐기물 자원화의 효과를 동시에 달성할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 본 연구에서는 초산제조의 원료로 폐기물의 가스화를 통해 발생한 합성가스 내의 CO를 적용가능성을 검토하기 위하여 사업장 폐기물 및 사업장폐기물과 폐유, 건조슬러지 등을 혼합한 복합폐기물의 가스화를 통해 CO의 발생 특성을 분석하였다.

One mechanism of free-radical production by ethanol is suggested to be through the intracellular conversion of XDH to XO by increased ratio of NADH to NAD. The major mechanism for physiological compensation of cytosolic NADH/NAD balance is the malate/aspartate shutfie. Therefore, it is important to develop the method to improve the efficiency of malate/aspartate shuttle in ethanol metabolism. In the present study, various amino acids and organic acid involved in the shuttle were tested for their functional efficiency in modulating shuttle in the ethanol-perfused rat liver. The rate of ethanol oxidation in the liver perfused with aspartate alone or aspartate in combination with pyruvate, respectively, was increased by about 10% compared to control liver, but not in the tissues perfused with glummate, cysteine or pyruvate alone. Though glummate, cysteine and pyravate did not affect the ethanol oxidation significanfiy, they showed some suppresive effect on the ethanol-induced radical generation monitored by protein carbonylation analysis. Among the tested components, aspartate is confirmed to be the most efficient as a metabolic regulator for both ethanol oxidation and ethanol-induced oxidative stress in our perfusion system. These effects of aspartate would result from NAD recycling by its supplementation through the coupled aspartate aminotransferase/malate dehydrogenase reactions and the malate-aspartate shuttle.

Benzylideneacetophenone derivative (1E)-1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl) hept-1-en-3-one (JC3) elicited cytotoxic effects on MDA-MB 231 human breast cancer cells-radiation resistant cells (MDA-MB 231-RR), in a dose-dependent manner, with an $IC_{50}$ value of $6{\mu}M$ JC3. JC3-mediated apoptosis was confirmed by increase in sub-G1 cell population. JC3 disrupted the mitochondrial membrane potential, and reduced expression of anti-apoptotic B cell lymphoma-2 protein, whereas it increased expression of pro-apoptotic Bcl-2-associated X protein, leading to the cleavage of caspase-9, caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. In addition, JC3 activated mitogen-activated protein kinases, and specific inhibitors of these kinases abrogated the JC3-induced increase in apoptotic bodies. JC3 increased the level of intracellular reactive oxygen species and enhanced oxidative macromolecular damage via lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation, and DNA strand breakage. Considering these findings, JC3 is an effective therapy against radiation-resistant human breast cancer cells.

The photochemical transformation of carbon monoxide in aqueous solution has been investigated at $25{\pm}0.1^{\circ}C$using ZnO as a photocatalyst. After irradiation of 253.7 nm UV light in the solution, carboxylation and carbonylation processes were carried out, and the formation of formic acid, oxalic acid, glyoxylic acid, formaldehyde and glyoxal was observed. The formation of the products depended on the pH values in the solution. The yield of formaldehyde and glyoxal increased in acidic solution whereas it decreased in basic solution. When the pH values in the solution increased above 11.5, the yield of formic acid increased rapidly. The initial quantum yields of the products were determined and the probable mechanisms for the reactions were presented on the basis of the products analysis.

It is known that dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) shows a dual effect, prooxidant or antioxidant, depending on the do-sage or physiological status of animals. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of DHEA administration at low dose on lipid peroxidation, protein carbonylation and fatty acid composition in liver. Sprague Dawley male rats were fed either com oil diet containing $15\%$ com oil or fish oil diet containing $2\%$ corn oil + $13\%$ sardine oil, with or without $0.2\%$ DHEA for 9 weeks. Atherogenic index and hepatic triglyceride and cholesterol levels were significantly reduced by DHEA administration in rats fed with fish oil diet. Hepatic lipid peroxide product (TBARS) and protein carbonyl levels were significantly higher in rats fed with fish oil diet than in rats fed with corn oil diet. However, DHEA administration significantly reduced the hepatic thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS) and conjugated diene levels in rats fed with fish oil diet. Contents of C16 : 0, C16 : 1, C20 : 5 and C22 : 6 in hepatic microsome were higher in rats fed with fish oil diet than in rats fed with corn oil diet, and contents of C18 : 2 and C20 : 4 were lower than in rats fed with com oil diet. DHEA administration significantly increased C16 : 0 and C18 : 3 contents and reduced C18 : 2 content in rats fed with com oil diet, while it increased C16 : 0 and C18 : 1 and reduced C20 : 5 and C22 : 6 in rats fed with fish oil diet. On overall, DHEA administration increased saturated fatty acid (SFA) and reduced polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) in hepatic microsome, thereby PUFA/SFA ratio was significantly (p < 0.0001) reduced without the change of n-3/n-6 ratio. Taken together, low dose of DHEA administration lowered PUFA/SFA ratio in hepatic microsomal membranes and also showed antioxidative effect especially in fish oil-induced highly oxidative stress condition through blocking increases of C20 : 5 and C22 : 6 contents.

Reaction mechanism of palladium(0, II)-phosphines complexes catalyzed cyclocarbonylation for unsaturated carboxylic acid such as crotonic acid, methacrylic acid and 3-butenoic acid has been investigated by product analysis, molecular mechanics and extended Huckel molecular orbital method. Reaction of 3-butenoic acid with palladium(0, II)-phosphines catalyst gives palladium containing cycloester through intermediate palladium-olefin ${\pi}$ -complex in the catalytic carbonylation. Palladium(0, II)-phosphines complexes catalyze the cyclocarbonylation of 3-butenoic acid to give 3-methylsuccinic anhydride and glutaric anhydride. But ${\pi}$ -complexes with palladium(0, II)-phosphines and unsaturated carboxylic acids such as crotonic acid and methacrylic acid are not effective the catalytic cyclocarbonylation.

A method for the selective syntheses of alkyl (alkoxymethyl)benzoates from halobenzyl halides by two steps in one pot process is described. In the first step, benzyl halide moiety is etherified with alkoxide anion in alcohol by Williamson ether process. In the second step, aryl halide moiety is carbonylated to give alkyl (alkoxymethyl)benzoate with alcohol, Na$_2$CO$_3$, CH$_3$I, and carbon monoxide (1 atm) in the presence of a catalytic amount of Co$_2$(CO)$_8$ in excellent yield.

The preparation of glycerol carbonate (GC) from urea through carbonylation with renewable glycerol was investigated by using ionic liquid catalysts. It was found that quaternary ammonium salt and imidazolium salt ionic liquids with a shorter alkyl chain length and higher nucleophilic anion showed better catalytic performance. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time and degree of vacuum on the reactivity of TBAC catalyst ware discussed. Zinc chloride ($ZnCl_2$) was used as co-catalyst with the ionic liquid catalyst. The mixed catalyst showed a synergy effect on the glycerol conversion and GC yield probably due to the acid-base properties of the catalysts.

To radiolabel bioactive molecules, we synthesized $^{99m}$Tc-tricarbonyl precursor, [$^{99m}$Tc(CO)$_3$($H_2O$)$_3$]$^{+}$ with a low oxidation state ( I ). The [$^{99m}$Tc(CO)$_3$($H_2O$)$_3$]$^{+}$ was prepared by low pressure carbonylation (1 atm of CO) of [$^{99m}$Tc $O_4$)]$^{[-10]}$ in the presence of NaB $H_4$ resulting in higher than 98% of labeling yield and stability up to 8 hrs. We evaluated the characteristics of $^{99m}$Tc- tricarbonyl labeled bioactive molecules by carrying out in vitro and in vitro study. Prepared [$^{99m}$Tc(CO)$_3$($H_2O$)$_3$]$^{+}$ was then reacted with some ligands of significance in modem diagnostic nuclear medicine and some amino acids. Labeling yields were checked by HPLC and found to be usually high, excluding $^{99m}$Tc-tricarbonyl-MDP, -EDTMP and -mIBG. And the biodistribution properties of $^{99m}$Tc-tricarbonyl complexes applied in rabbit showed different appearance comparing with that of the $^{99m}$Tc-labeling by conventional means. From these results, we conclude that [$^{99m}$Tc(CO)$_3$($H_2O$)$_3$]$^{+}$ is a potential precursor for development of radiopharmaceuticals, especially for labeling of biomolecules.

Carbonylated proteins (CPs) are synthesized by the chemical reaction of basic amino acid residues in proteins with aldehyde compounds yielded by lipid peroxidation. CPs are excited by a range of light from UVA to blue light, and resulted in the generation of superoxide anion radicals ($^{\cdot}O_2{^-}$) by photosensitizing reaction. Then, they CPs induce new protein carbonylation in stratum corneum through ROS generation. Furthermore, the superoxide anion radicals produce CPs in the stratum corneum (SC) through lipid peroxidation and finally affects skin conditions including color and moisture functions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the production of stratum corneum carbonylated protein (SCCP) and the skin elasticity. 46 healthy female Koream at the ages of 30 ~ 50 years old were participated in this study for 8 weeks. The skin test was experiment conducted into two groups; placebo group (N = 23) used cream that did not contain active ingredients, and the other group (N = 23) used cream containing the elasticity improving ingredients. Test areas were the crow 's feet and the cheek. Various non-invasive methods were carried out to measure biophysical parameters on human skin indicating that dermis density and skin wrinkle were measured by using DUB scanner and Primos premium, respectively. Skin elasticity were measured using dermal torque meter (DTM310) and balistometer (BLS780). SCCP was assessed in a simple and non-invasive method using skin surface biopsy on the cheek of the subject. The amount of SCCP was determined using image analysis. All measurements were taken at 0, 4 and 8 8week. Results revealed that the amount of CP in SC was reduced when the skin wrinkle and skin elasticity related parameters were improved. This indicates that the correlation between the elasticity improvement and the amount of CP can be used as a anti-aging indicator and applicable to the skin clinical test for the measurement of skin aging in the future.
