Feeding preference of cigarette beetle, Lasioderma sewicorne F., on cured tobacco leaves was investigated to obtain basic information on ecological management of the insect pest in tobacco storage warehouses. About 3, 000-4, 000 adults of the insect were released in a warehouse in which groud tobacco leaves were placed on the bottom and at 3m above the floor level, and numbers of insects attracted were examined. There was no significant difference on feeding preference between the two tobacco varieties, flue-cured(NC82) and air-cured(Br3l) tobacco leaves. However, significant differences were noted in feeding preference between thick and thin leaves and among different quality grades within a tobacco variety. Feeding preferences of cigarette beetle between flue- and air- cured tobacco varieties showed significant differences on the lower position, though there were no differences on the 3m upper position. On the 3m upper position, feeding preferences were different between thick and thin leaves of tobacco varieties, and variety X thickness and variety X thickness equality grades showed statistically significant differences. Significantly higher feeding preference by cigarette beetle adults was observed for the food placed on the 3m upper than on the lower position. There were negative correlations between quality grades of cured tobacco leaves and feeding preference on the lower position, and the regression equation was Y(feeding preference)=4.050-0.683 X (degree).

SiCl$_4$/CH$_4$/H$_2$계를 사용한 플라즈마 화학증착법(PECVD)으로 실리콘(100) 기판 위에 3C-SiC막을 117$0^{\circ}C$~1335$^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 증착하였다. 증착온도, 유입가스비, R$_{x}$ [=CH$_4$/(CH$_4$+H$_2$)], 그리고 r.f. power를 변화시켜 증착막의 결정성에 대해 검토하였다. Thermal CVD에 비해 PECVD법은 박막의 증착속도를 향상시켰다. 증착된 3C-SiC은 (111) 면으로 최대의 우선배향성을 지님을 알 수 있었다. 실리콘 기판 위의 3C-SiC막의 결정성은 R$_{x}$값에 의존하였으며, R$_{x}$가 감소할수록 결정성이 더욱 향상되었다. Free Si가 3C-SiC막과 함께 증착되었으나, 증착온도와 r.f power가 증가함에 따라 free Si의 함량은 감소하였다. 증착온도 127$0^{\circ}C$, 유입가스비 R$_{x}$=0.04, r.f. power가 60W에서 비교적 결정성을 가진 3C-SiC막을 얻을 수 있었다.

The reproductive ecology of the glowbelly, $Acropoma$ $japonicum$ was examined using 637 specimens collected monthly from January to December 2006 in the coastal waters off Gori, Korea. The specimens ranged in standard length (cm, SL) from 2.9 to 11.4cm for female, 2.7 to 10.5cm for male. The gonadosomatic index (GSI) of female was highest in September and decreased until December, and the spawning season lasted from August to November. The monthly sex was not different significantly ($x^2$-test, p>0.05). The size at 50% maturity was estimated at 6.0cm SL. $A.$ $japonicum$ was multiple spawner that spawn on more than one occasion in a single spawning season, and the maximum egg diameter was 0.75mm. Fecundity (F) ranged from 12,052 to 104,246 eggs, with the mean of 38,321 eggs. The relationships between fecundity and standard length (cm, SL), body weight (g, BW) were estimated as $F=86.278SL^{2.9652}$ ($R^2$=0.7970) and $F=3036BW^{1.0081}$ ($R^2$=0.7992), respectively.

본 연구에서는 Molybdenum oxide (MoOx)-doped 4,4',4"-tris[2-naphthyl(amino)] triphenylamine(2-TNATA)의 P-doping에 의한 hole ohmic contact과 fullerene (C60)/lithium (LiF)의 electron ohmic contact에 의한 All Ohmic contact를 이용한 유기 발광 다이오드 (OLEDs)의 광저항 특성의 향상을 설명한다. 이 소자의 성능은 MoOx-doped 2-TNATA의 두께와 도핑농도에 큰 영향을 받는다. glass/ITO/MoOx-doped 2-TNATA (100 nm)/Al 구조의 소자에서 MoOx-doped 2-TNATA 도핑 농도가 25%에서 75%로 증가할수록 hole only device의 hole ohmic 특성이 향상됐다. 그 이유는 p-type doping effect 때문이다. 또한 photoemission spectra 분석결과, p-type doping effect는 hole-injecting barrier 높이는 낮추고, hole conductivity는 향상되었다. 이것은 2-TNATA에 도핑된 MoOx의 전하전송 콤플렉스의 형성으로 hole carrier의 수가 증가하여 발생되었다. MoOx-doped 2-TNATA의 hole ohmic contact과 fullerene (C60)/lithium fluoride (LiF)의 electron ohmic contact 으로 구성된 glass/ITO/MoOx-doped 2-TNATA (75%, 60 nm)/NPB (10 nm)/Alq3 (35 nm)/C60 (5 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (150 nm)의 소자구조는 6,4V에서 127,600 cd/m2 최대 휘도와 약 1,000 cd/m2에서 4.7 lm/W의 높은 전력 효율을 보여준다.

Biomphalaria alexandrina snails play an indispensable role in transmission of schistosomiasis. Infection rates in field populations of snails are routinely determined by cercarial shedding neglecting prepatent snail infections, because of lack of a suitable method for diagnosis. The present study aimed at separation and quantification of oxalic, malic, acetic, pyruvic, and fumaric acids using ion-suppression reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to test the potentiality of these acids to be used as diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers. The assay was done in both hemolymph and digestive gland-gonad complex (DGG) samples in a total of 300 B. alexandrina snails. All of the studied acids in both the hemolymph and tissue samples except for the fumaric acid in hemolymph appeared to be good diagnostic biomarkers as they provide not only a good discrimination between the infected snails from the control but also between the studied stages of infection from each other. The most sensitive discriminating acid was malic acid in hemolymph samples as it showed the highest F-ratio. Using the Z-score, malic acid was found to be a good potential therapeutic biomarker in the prepatency stage, oxalic acid and acetic acid in the stage of patency, and malic acid and acetic acid at 2 weeks after patency. Quantification of carboxylic acids, using HPLC strategy, was fast, easy, and accurate in prediction of infected and uninfected snails and possibly to detect the stage of infection. It seems also useful for detection of the most suitable acids to be used as drug targets.

The purpose of this study was to purify antioxidant substances from steamed squid extract (SSE). The yield of SSE was 8% by dry weight. The approximate compositions of SSE proteins, lipids, moisture, carbohydrate and ash were 64.95%, 1.69%, 7.23%, 4.44% and 21.69%, respectively. The major amino acids in SSE were taurine (29.17%), glycine (20.33%), alanine (12.51%), and glutamic acid (9.83%). Antioxidant activities were evaluated using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, which was measured as 24.7% at 1.0 mg/mL. Four SSE fractions were isolated by Sephadex G-25 gel chromatography; the F2 fraction showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity. The F2 fraction was separated by reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) using an octadecylsilane (ODS) column, yielding a purified antioxidant substance with a DPPH radical scavenging activity of 64.41% at 1.0 mg/mL, representing a 2.64-fold increase in the scavenging activity of SSE purified by the 3-step procedure. The amino acid compositions showed that purified SSE was rich in taurine, glycine, glutamic acid and alanine. The purified SSE significantly elevated 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluororescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) fluorescence probe, which confirms its effective radical scavenging potential in cellular ROS. In addition, the SSE significantly inhibited oxidative damage of purified genomic DNA. These results suggest that a purified antioxidant substance from SSE can be used as a potential natural compound-based antioxidant in the functional food and pharmaceutical industries.

Several kinds of biodegradable hydrogels were prepared via in situ photopolymerization of Pluronic F127/poly($\varepsilon$-caprolactone) macromer and acrylic acid (AA) comonomer in aqueous medium. The swelling kinetics measurements showed that the resultant hydrogels exhibited both thermo- and pH-sensitive behaviors, and that this stimuli-responsiveness underwent a fast reversible process. With increasing pH of the local buffer solutions, the pH sensitivity of the hydrogels was increased, while the temperature sensitivity was decreased. In vitro hydrolytic degradation in the buffer solution (pH 7.4, $37^{\circ}C$), the degradation rate of the hydrogels was greatly improved due to the introduction of the AA comonomer. The in vitro release profiles of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in-situ embedded into the hydrogels were also investigated: the release mechanism of BSA based on the Peppas equation was followed Case II diffusion. Such biodegradable dual-sensitive hydrogel materials may have more advantages as a potentially interesting platform for smart drug delivery carriers and tissue engineering scaffolds.
