  • 라만 분광기는 그래핀의 특성을 분석하기 위한 필수적인 방법이다. 상용 마이크로 라만 분광기는 작은 면적에 대해 유용하게 사용되고 있으나 작은 면적 측정으로 인하여 산업적으로는 시료 측정 등에 제한적으로 사용되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 그래핀의 대면적 이미지 얻을 수 있는 라만 분광기에 대해 제안하였다. 이 이미지를 이용하여 그래핀의 유무 및 결함에 대한 정보를 빠르게 얻었다. 이를 이용하여, 실시간으로 그래핀에 대한 결함 유무, 층 수에 대한 균일도를 확인할 수 있으며, 양산 그래핀에 대한 품질 평가에 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

  • Tumors are encircled by various non-cancerous cell types in the extracellular matrix, including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, immune cells, and cytokines. Fibroblasts are the most critical cells in the tumor stroma and play an important role in tumor development, which has been highlighted in some epithelial cancers. Many studies have shown a tight connection between cancerous cells and fibroblasts in the last decade. Regulatory factors secreted into the tumor environment by special fibroblast cells, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), play an important role in tumor and vessel development, metastasis, and therapy resistance. This review addresses the development of FAP inhibitors, emphasizing the first, second, and latest generations. First-generation inhibitors exhibit low selectivity and chemical stability, encouraging researchers to develop new scaffolds based on preclinical and clinical data. Second-generation enzymes such as UAMC-1110 demonstrated enhanced FAP binding and better selectivity. Targeted treatment and diagnostic imaging have become possible by further developing radionuclide-labeled fibroblast activation protein inhibitors (FAPIs). Although all three FAPIs (01, 02, and 04) showed excellent preclinical and clinical findings. The final optimization of these FAPI scaffolds resulted in FAPI-46 with the highest tumor-to-background ratio and better binding affinity.

  • We analyzed the major quality characteristics of red pepper powders from various regions and predicted these characteristics nondestructively using shortwave infrared hyperspectral imaging (HSI) technology. We conducted partial least squares regression analysis on 70% (n=71) of the acquired hyperspectral data of the red pepper powders to examine the major quality characteristics. Rc2 values of ≥0.8 were obtained for the ASTA color value (0.9263) and capsaicinoid content (0.8310). The developed quality prediction model was validated using the remaining 30% (n=35) of the hyperspectral data; the highest accuracy was achieved for the ASTA color value (Rp2=0.8488), and similar validity levels were achieved for the capsaicinoid and moisture contents. To increase the accuracy of the quality prediction model, we conducted spectrum preprocessing using SNV, MSC, SG-1, and SG-2, and the model's accuracy was verified. The results indicated that the accuracy of the model was most significantly improved by the MSC method, and the prediction accuracy for the ASTA color value was the highest for all the spectrum preprocessing methods. Our findings suggest that the quality characteristics of red pepper powders, even powders that do not conform to specific variables such as particle size and moisture content, can be predicted via HSI.

  • 0.32 T 자기공명영상시스템에서 선주사영상기법(line scan imaging)을 이용한 확산강조영상(diffusion weighted imaging; DWI) 펄스열(pulse sequence)을 개발하였다. 선주사영상은 단면선택 경사자장과 함께 90도 펄스를 가하여 단면을 선택한 후 y 방향으로 경사자장을 가한 후 180도 라디오파 펄스를 가하여 단면영상의 y-방향 픽셀크기와 같은 너비의 x축에 평행한 띠를 따라 에코가 발생하게 한 뒤 x-방향으로 주파수부호화해서 1차원 k-공간 데이터를 획득하며 이를 1차원 푸리에변환하여 영상을 재구성하였다. 또한 선주사확산강조영상(line scan diffusion weighted image)을 위해서 한 쌍의 사다리꼴모양의 경사자장을 선주사영상기법의 180도 펄스 전후에 대칭으로 배치하였으며 사용된 확산경사자장기울기의 최대값은 G = 15 mT/m 이었고 최대 b 값은 $301.50s/mm^2$이었다. 본 연구에서 개발된 선주사확산강조펄스열을 이용하여 0.32 T 자기공명영상 장비에서 트리아실글리세롤 팬텀(triacylglycerol, TAG) 및 염화나트륨 수용액 (NaCl = 0.1w/v%) 팬텀 영상을 획득하였다. 또한 1.5 T 자기공명영상시스템에서 단일여기에코평면영상화(single shot echo planar imaging)로 동일한 팬텀의 확산강조영상을 구하였다. 선주사확산강조영상은 가장 널리 이용되고 있는 에코평면영상을 이용한 확산강조영상과 비교하여 자화율차이에 의한 영상왜곡이나 화학이동에 의한 허상들이 없음을 확인하였다. 특히 선주사확산강조영상에서 측정한 염화나트륨 수용액 팬텀의 확산계수($963.90{\pm}79.83{\times}10^{-6}mm^2/s$)는 1.5 T에서 계산된 확산계수($956.77{\pm}4.12{\times}10^{-6}mm^2/s$)와 오차범위 내에서 일치하였다.

  • We have established an efficient method for the synthesis of the arylpiperazine derivatives in which the acylation of 2-aminopyridine, the coupling reaction of the acyl compound with piperazines, and reduction of the arylpiperazines were performed under a microwave irradiation (300 W) to afford the corresponding target compounds in quantitative yields. In all cases, the reaction times were remarkably reduced when compared with those of the conventional method.

  • 자외선 조사하에서 $TiO_2$를 촉매로 하여 trichloroethylene의 광분해반응을 행하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매의 활성을 비교하였고, 반응조건에 따른 광분해 활성을 조사하였다. 또한 빛의 세기에 따른 분해활성과 반응물에 첨가된 물의 영향을 조사하였다. 여러 가지 $TiO_2$ 촉매에서 P-25가 가장 높은 활성을 보였고, anatase형이 rutile형보다 높은 활성을 보였다. 또한 반응물의 유속이 느릴수록 또한 초기농도가 낮을수록 trichloroethylene의 분해 반응 활성은 증가하였고, 산화제로서 공기를 사용하는 것이 효과적이었다. 한편 반응물에 첨가된 물은 촉매의 활성을 감소시켰고, 빛의 세기가 증가할수록 분해 반응속도가 증가하였으나 태양광에 의해서는 분해율이 매우 낮았다. trichloroethylene의 농도가 낮을 경우에는 촉매의 활성저하가 거의 일어나지 않았다.

  • Theoretical calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) were performed to study the substituent effect on the geometric and electronic structures as well as the biological behavior of technetium-99m-labeled diphosphonate complexes. Optimized structures of these complexes are surrounded by six ligands in an octahedral environment with three unpaired 4d electrons ($d^3$ state) and the optimized geometry of $^{99m}Tc$-MDP agrees with experimental data. With the increase of electron-donating substituent or tether between phosphate groups, the energy gap between frontier orbitals increases and the probability of non-radiative deactivation via d-d electron transfer decreases. The charge distribution reflects a significant ligand-to-metal electron donation. Based on the calculated geometric and electronic structures and biologic properties of $^{99m}Tc$-diphosphonate complexes, several structure-activity relationships (SARs) were established. These results may be instructive for the design and synthesis of novel $^{99m}Tc$-diphosphonate bone imaging agent and other $^{99m}Tc$-based radiopharmaceuticals.

  • The increasing importance of biomedical imaging technology has led to the development of a variety of luminescent materials, including molecular fluorophores, fluorescent proteins, and quantum dots. Owing to their inherent disadvantages, such as insufficient chemical stability and limited biocompatability, their utilization has been limited with imaging only under highly optimized and controlled conditions. Recently, a new class of luminescent nanoparticles, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), have been emerging as a practically useful nanoprobe for various bioimaging applications. The detailed synthesis, functionalization, properties and in-vitro / in-vivo applications of the UCNPs are introduced and discussed in this Review.

  • Radiopharmaceuticals that can be consumed in specific disease site play a key role In order to diagnose and treat the diseases. In addition, radiopharmaceuticals can be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes depending on the type of the labeled radioactive isotope. Recently, theragnostic radiopharmaceuticals that can simultaneously diagnose and treat are developed. Therefore, the development of target-specific radiopharmaceuticals is a very important research topic in the field of molecular imaging and therapy. This review paper summarizes the basic considerations for the development of radiopharmaceuticals. For new researchers or students who are now beginning in the field of radiopharmaceuticals, we intend to assist in the development of radiopharmaceuticals by describing the definition of radiopharmaceuticals, the ideal radiopharmaceutical conditions, the considerations for developing new radiopharmaceuticals, the factors affecting the design of radiopharmaceuticals, the requirements of radioisotope labeling reactions, and finally the definition and importance of molar activity in radiopharmaceuticals.

  • Recent development of scanning probe microscope techniques has made it possible to investigate, not only microscopic surface topography, but also physical and chemical properties on the nanometer-scale. The scanning Maxwell-stress microscopy (SMM) is surface characterization tool capable of mapping both the surface topography and electrical properties, such as surface potential, surface charge dielectric constant of thin films with a nanometer-scale resolution by means of the AC voltage driven oscillation of metal coated cantilever. In this study, we observed the surface potential distribution and molecular ordering in thin films. We have demonstrated that the SMM can be used for imaging surface potential distribution over the film surface and also be used for detecting surface changes in thin films. This is first step towards the understanding of electrical phenomena in organic and inorganic materials, biological system with SMM.
