We proposed a method to fabricate label-free protein sensor with sub-wavelength nanograting structures to be used for diagnosing acute myocardial infarction. A nickel stamp for the injection molding of nanograting integrated protein sensor was fabricated by electroforming process with high fidelity. By using metallic stamp, we replicated label-free protein sensor via injection molding, which is an outstanding method for low-cost and mass production of polymer products. Finally, we performed a feasibility test, examining cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and anti-cTnT interactions. From the results, we demonstrated that the fabricated protein sensor can provide information for the early and accurate detection of cardiac diseases such as acute myocardial infarction.

An experimental investigation has been carried out to reveal the atomization process of the diesel fuel spray. The spray injected through a single hole nozzle was taken by a camera on the opposite side of a stroboscope for macroscopic observation or a nanolite for microscopic observation. The effect of nozzle aspect ratio was analyzed with disintegration phenomena of the diesel spray. Based on the enlarged spray photograph, atomization process was observed in detail and further the spray cone angle was measured under various ambient pressures. The result shows that atomization of diesel spray in early stage of injection is mainly progressed in the vicinity of spray periphery region except the region close to the nozzle exit and spray head region. The spray cone angle is nearly constant under the pressurized condition, while it decreases with elapsing time under the atmospheric condition.

Dispersion condition of Si3N4 powder in molten wax was established by comparing relative viscosity of mixture with 20 vol% solids loading, while the evaluation of compression-molded sample was demonstrated as an effective method for developing a binder system for injection molding. The best dispersion of Si3N4 powder in molten wax was achieved when Si3N4 powder was treated with 5% stearic acid, and the critical powder volume fraction was determined to be about 0.51 from density measurement of compression-molded samples. Samples containing polar secondary binder showed markedly improved green strength, higher thermal expansion and increased wicking rate in the early stage.

Oogenesis process of ovary produces a lot of undifferentiated cells. Especially, the radiation exposure of early immature cells in the process of growth to oocyte causes serious disabilities. This study examined the radiation damage mechanism of undifferentiated cells and organelles in oogenesis process, and the radioprotection after injection of alliin. The ultrastructure after 7Gy X-ray irradiation on the white rat was observed in the experiment. The results is as follows. It was observed that the nucleus membrane of an oogonium was damaged and vacuolated in the several parts after 15 days of irradiation. The damage of mitochondria membrane and flow in cytoplasm after 20 and 30 days was found in the oogonium. After 40 days observation, peroxidation of fat droplets was found and organelles were tangled each other in ovary tissue. The partial damage of nuclear membrane in oogonium past 15 days after injection of alliin was found, but decreased remarkably. Mitochondria, Golgi body, and rough endoplasmic reticulum were also clearly observed, therefore, radioprotection effects in alliin was confirmed partially.

The initial sintering behaviour of the powder injection molded (PIMed) W-l5wt%Cu nanocomposite powder was investigated. The W-Cu nanocomposite powder was produced by the mechanochemical process consisting of high energy ball-milling and hydrogen reduction of W blue powder-CuO mixture. Solid state sintering of the powder compacts was conducted at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 2~10 hours in hydrogen at mosphere. The sintering behaviour was examined and discussed in terms of microstructural developments such as W-Cu aggregate formation, pore size distribution and W grain growth. The volume shrinkage of PIM specimen was slightly larger than that of PM(conventional PM specimen), being due to fast local densification in the PIM. Remarkable decrease of carbon and oxygen in the PIM enhanced local densification in the early stage of solid state sintering process with eliminating very fine pores less than 10 nm. In addition, such local densiflcation in the PIM is presumably responsible for mitigating of W-grain growth in the initial stage.

The post-launch mission analysis of the KOMPSAT-1 spacecraft was carried out. The injection accuracy of the Taurus launch vehicle was analyzed by comparison of the target and the realized orbit parameters. The tracking station contact analysis was also performed based on the state vectors applied at the day of launch. The offset angles between the predicted orbit and realized orbit were calculated for various tracking stations. The injection orbit parameters of the KOMPSAT-1 were analyzed for the possible options in Launch and Early Orbit Phase(LEOP) operations. Variations of the Local Time of Ascending Node(LTAN) were also obtained.

It is well known to diesel engineers that the heat release pattern is one of the most important factors affecting engine performance. Thorough research in heat release pattern has materially helped the progress in high-speed diesel engine development . This paper is based on the research conducted at KAIST and Daewoo Heavy Industry last year. The purpose of this paper is to determine the heat release pattern in combustion chamber of MAN M type, the famous low-noise engine. Thermodynamic cycle simulation was performed using Whitehous-Way's heat release pattern with modified coefficients and Annand's heat transfer model. Instantaneous temperature and pressure of gas in cylinder could be determined by the numerical solution of simultaneous equation of mass conservation, equation of energy conservation, and state equation of ideal gas. Calculated results were compared with measured values in some details emphasizing upon the factors affecting rate of heat release. The agreement was fairly good and revealed why M type should have lower burning velocity at the early part of combustion in spite of high injection rate. Additional results by parametric studies were given in relation to fuel injection conditions for further application to engine development.

The effect of MAP kinase activity on maturation of porcine oocytes was investigated. MAP kinase was detected by immunofluorescence staining in nucleus of oocytes just before entering GVBD (germinal vesicle breakdown)stage. In a Western blot with GV (germinal vesicle) from these oocytes (cultured for 25 hours), a shift of MAP kinase band a, pp.ared, suggesting an activated stage of the kinase. No activity was shown in the blot with GV isolated from, oocytes cultured for 0 hour. To confirm that activation of MAP kinase induce GVBD, we microinjected MAP kinase purified from matured oocytes starfish into the cytoplasm of oocytes in GV stage (cultured for 0 hour). The injected MAP kinase did not cause early a, pp.arance of GVBD. No oocytes showed GVBD state until 20 hours of culture. Activity of MAP kinase did not increase significantly after the injection. When the exogenous MAP kinase was injected into GV, GVBD was induced in about 20% of oocytes cultured for 5 to 10 hours. These results suggest that MAP kinase is traslocated to nucleus and function as a factor inducing GVBD.

In an attempt to define the early biochemical determinants that participate in the pathogenesis of glycerol-induced nephrotoxicity, especially focusing on oxygen free radicals, we studied malondialdehyde (MDA) level and the activities of catalase and superoxide dismutase in the renal cortex of rats, and the concentrations of blood urea nitrogen(BUH) and serum creatinine of rats at 24hr after the injection of a 50% solution of glycerol. Sprague-Dawley albino rats weighing 240 to 260 mg were injected intramuscularly with a 50% solution of glycerol(2 mι/kg, 4 mι/kg and 8 mι/kg). The group treated with glycerol showed significantlv higher MDA level and catalase activity, lower SOD activity and higher BUN and serum creatinine concentrations at 24 hr after the injection as compared to those of control group. These results suggest that the excessive oxygen free radicals resulting from the depression of SOD activity is an important determinant in the pathogenesis of glycerol-induced nephrotoxicity.
