To improve the mechanical properties, such as durabilities and antioxidative characteristics, the covalently cross-linked (CL-) SPEEK (sulfonated polyether ether ketone)/Cs-substituted HPA (heteropoly acid) organic-inorganic composite membranes (CL-SPEEK/Cs-HPAs), have been intensively investigated. The composite membrane were prepared by blending cesium-substituted HPAs (Cs-HPAs), including tungstophosphoric acid (TPA), molybdophosphoric acid (MoPA), and tungstosilicic acid (TSiA) with cross-linking agent content of 0.01 mL. And composite electrolytes composed of Cs-HPAs, prepared by immersion (imm.) and titration (titr.) methods to increase the stability of HPAs in water, were applied to polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysis (PEME). As a result, the proton conductivity of Cs-substituted composite membranes increased rapidly over $60^{\circ}C$ but mechanical properties, such as tensile strength, decreased in accordance with added Cs content. The bleeding-out of Cs-TPA membranes by titration method (50 vol.% Cs) decreased steadily to 2.15%. In the oxidative stability test by Fenton solution, the durability of membranes with Cs-HPA significantly increased. In case of CL-SPEEK/ Cs-TPA membrane, duration time increased more than 1200 hours. It is expected that even though CL-SPEEK/Cs-MoPA membrane shows the high proton conductivity, electrocatalytic activity and cell voltage of 1.80 V for water electrolysis, the CL-SPEEK/Cs-TPA (imm.) is more suitable as an alternative membrane in real system with the satisfactory proton conductivity, mechanical properties, anti-oxidative stability and cell voltage of 1.89 V.

CR asthma is associated with disease chronicity, a positive family history of asthma and in vitro and in vivo defects in mononuclear cell function. The HPA axis in CR asthmatics is suppressed normally by dexamethasone and the pharmacokinetic profile of an oral dose of prednisolone is similar to that found in CS subjects. In addition, competitive binding studies have shown that the ligand binding and nuclear translocation functions of the GR are similar in the two groups. Studies using gel retardation assay have indicated a defect in DNA binding in CR subjects. Chemical mutational analysis of the GR has shown that is not due to a defect in its structure at the cDNA level. Scatchard analysis of the GR/DNA and GR/ligand interactions suggests that there may be transcriptional interference of the GR with other transcriptionally active molecules leading to defective gene transcription.

산화탈황반응은 디벤조티오펜(dibenzothiophenes, DBTs)과 같이 제거하기 어려운 구조의 황화합물들을 선택적으로 산화하여 설폭사이드(sulfoxide)와 설폰(sulfone) 등의 형태로 전환하고, 이들을 추출과 흡착에 의해 제거할 수 있기 때문에 최근 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 선박용 경유의 산화탈황반응을 회분식반응기에서 산화제 과산화수소($H_2O_2$)와 함께 다양한 헤테로폴리산 담지촉매에 의해 수행하였다. 제조 촉매들은 X-선 회절분석(XRD), X-선 형광분석(XRF), X-선 광전자분광분석(XPS) 및 질소 흡착등온선 등의 기법에 의해 특성분석이 이루어졌다. 유망한 지지체인 실리카에 30 wt% 담지된 헤테로폴리산 촉매 활성 순위는 황 제거율 기준으로, $30\;H_3PW_{12}/SiO_2$ > $30\;H_3PMo_{12}/SiO_2$ > $30\;H_4SiW_{12}/SiO_2$ 순으로 나타났으며, 이는 헤테로폴리산의 고유 산세기에 기인한 것으로 판단된다. $30\;H_3PW_{12}/SiO_2$ 촉매는 반응 온도 $30^{\circ}C$, 촉매량 $0.025g\;mL^{-1}$ (cat./oil), 반응 시간 1 h의 반응조건 하에서 약 66%의 가장 높은 초기 황 제거율을 보였다. 그러나 $H_3PW_{12}/SiO_2$ 촉매의 재사용성 실험을 통해 확연하게 활성이 저하됨을 확인하였으며 이는 활성 성분인 $H_3PW_{12}$의 용출에 기인한 것으로 보인다. $H_3PW_{12}/SiO_2$ 촉매로의 세슘 양이온($Cs^+$) 도입에 의한 용해도의 변화와 함께 촉매의 안정성이 개선되었으며, $Cs^+$ 이온교환 된 촉매는 최소 5회 이상 재사용이 가능함을 확인하였다.
