A phenylbenzimidazole derivatized sensor (L) that behaves as a ratiometric fluorescent receptor for $Zn^{2+}$ in water has been described. In HEPES buffer at pH 7.4, sensor L displays a weak fluorescence emission band at 367 nm. Upon addition of $Zn^{2+}$, the emission intensity at 367 nm is decreased, concomitantly, a new emission band centered at 426 nm is developed, thus facilitates a ratiometric $Zn^{2+}$ sensing behavior. Sensor L binds $Zn^{2+}$ through a 1:1 binding stoichiometry with high selectivity over other metal cations. Sensor L displays a linear response to $Zn^{2+}$ concentration from 0 to $6.0{\times}10^{-5}M$, sensor L also exhibits high sensitivity to $Zn^{2+}$ with a detection limit of $3.31{\times}10^{-7}M$.

Water and ethanol extracts were prepared from the haesongi mushroom (Hypsizigus marmoreus) to measure functional components. The ability of the extracts to inhibit angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) and their hypoglycemic effects were also determined; the latter was measured by $\alpha$-amylase and glucosidase inhibition. Extraction yield, protein content, total phenol, and $\beta$-glucan in the water extracts were 55.86, 17.71, 1.89, and 21.93%, respectively. The respective values for the ethanol extracts were lower than those for water extracts. Both water and ethanol extracts showed dosedependent ACE inhibition, the effect of the former being greater. The water extract inhibited ACE activity by 95.34% at 40 mg/mL. The $IC_{50}$ values of the water extracts were 63.32 and 0.41 mg/mL for $\alpha$-amylase and glucosidase, respectively. Thus, the water extracts had a greater hypoglycemic effect than the ethanol extracts. From these results, water is a better solvent than ethanol to extract from the haesongi mushroom functional components that show ACE inhibition and have hypoglycemic effects.

This study is primarily concerned with the relationship between the substantial nature of water and water space, defined as the container of water, when water is used as an element of design. In order to achieve the objective set up, the writer discusses the important properties of water. As the functional meaning of 'water' has been changed to the natural harmony or agreement with human, both the exterior shape of architectural structures and their internal meanings should be taken into account, if the water space is to be suitable for humans.

소수성 고분자 재료 표면의 친수화 처리 및 기능성 작용기 도입은 재료의 응용성을 상당히 확장할 수가 있기 때문에 중요성이 인지되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기상 UV 그라프트 반응(vapor phase photografting)에 의해 서로 다른 이온성을 가지는 비닐계 단량체들을 PE 표면에 도입하여 표면 친수성을 향상시켰다. 이를 위해 acrylic acid(음이온성), acrylamide(중성), allylalcohol(중성), allylamine(양이온성) N,N-dimethyl aminopropyl acrylamide(양이온성) 등 서로 다른 기능성 작용기를 갖는 친수성 단량체들을 본 실험실에서 고안한 기상 UV 그라프트 반응장치를 이용하여 기체상태에서 PE 표면에 도입하였다. 이들 단량체들이 도입된 PE 표면을 물 접촉각 측정과 ATR-FTIR을 이용하여 분석한 결과, 각 기능성 단량체들이 효과적으로 PE 표면에 그라프트되어 표면의 친수성이 향상되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구에 사용한 기상 UV 그라프트 반응은 고분자 표면에 다양한 작용기를 도입하여 표면을 개질할 수 있는 효과적인 방법으로 생각되어진다.

The objective of this study was to investigate the possibility of application for water treatment using the zeocarbon. The zeocarbon was mixture of zeolite and activated carbon. In general, the application of commercial zeocarbon to water treatment is difficult because of weak strength in water and the high pH value of effluents after water treatment. Therefore, we have modified the surface of zeocarbon. For the surface modification, we used the acid treatment to make surface functional group. As a result of modification, was created functional group on zeocarbon surface and was formed mesopore in zeocarbon. The surface modified zeocarbon was applied to removal of nitrogen. In removal experiments of nitrogen, removal efficiency was very high. And, strength of zeocarbon after water treatment and pH of effluents were stabilized. This indicates that the surface modified zeocarbon was easy to recover and reuse. Consequently, our results were shown the possibility of application for water treatment using the surface modified zeocarbon.

This study was conducted to evaluate the antioxidant activity of oven-dried ($60^{\circ}C$) tomato powder (TP) as affected by water solubility and to evaluate the effects of TP on the physico-chemical properties, and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of emulsified pork sausages with two levels of TP (1% and 2 %). After fresh tomatoes were homogenized and dried at $60^{\circ}C$ oven, they were extracted by stirring with water. Then, the aqueous solution was filtered, and water soluble and insoluble tomato powders were obtained with freeze drying. In experiment I, total phenolic contents in oven-dried tomato powder, water soluble and insoluble powder were more than 2 g/100 g. The radical scavenging activity and iron-chelation ability of the water-insoluble extracts were higher than those of dried TP and water-soluble extracts. In experiment II, pH values and Hunter L values of pork sausages formulated with TP were reduced. However, hunter a and b values were higher than those of the control, and those effects were increased with increased levels of TP. 2-Thiobarbituric acid reactive substance values of pork sausages containing TP were lower than that of the control during refrigerated storage, regardless of the TP level. These results indicated that TP could be used as a natural color agent and antioxidant in meat products without defects.

In this study, we try to find the root cause of water condensing failures in a headlamp using chemical and mechanical analysis. Through the surface inspection by OM, SEM and CT, it was found that water infiltrate into the headlamp through hotmelt adhesive debonding part caused by adhesion force degradation and poor quality. IR spectra shows that adhesion force degradation are characterized by increase of some functional group(1742, 1710, 1649, 1016). Through the ESPI measurement, it is turned out that bonding structural change by thermal expansion and degradation of adhesive can be the cause of void generation. So it is recommended that cooling passage and the bonding part should be redesigned to give a guarantee of less thermal stress and high adhesion quality.

FTIR spectroscopy has been employed to investigate the variation of anion-water hydrogen bonding in 1-butyl 3-methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([Bmim][$BF_4$]) ionic liquid caused by addition of organic co-solvents with various polarities. The variation was estimated by probing band shape and intensity of the OH stretching vibration of trace water present in ionic liquid at $3400-3800cm^{-1}$. The presence of polar aprotic co-solvent in ionic liquid dramatically reduces the absorptivity of the OH stretch band, indicating that the co-solvent changes the nature of anion-water hydrogen bond drastically, which might be responsible for the reduction of the viscosity of ionic liquid in the presence of the co-solvent.

Hot water extracts of Camellia japonica flower buds were found to have the higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than the other solvent extracts. Five phenolic compounds were isolated and purified from the ethyl acetate soluble-neutral fraction of hot water extracts by Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography and octadecyl silane-high performance liquid chromatography using the guided assay of DPPH radical scavenging. Based on mass spectrometer and nuclear magnetic resonance, the isolated compounds were identified as p-hydroxybenzaldehyde (1), vanillin (2), dehydroxysynapyl alcohol (3), 7S,7'S,8R,8'R-icariol $A_2$ (4), and (-)-epicatechin (5). Four compounds (1-4) except for 5 were newly identified in this plant. Their DPPH radical scavenging activities as 50% scavenging concentration decreased in order to 5 $(20\;{\mu}M)>{\alpha}-tocopherol$ $(29\;{\mu}M)>4$ $(67\;{\mu}M)>3$ $(72\;{\mu}M)>1=2$ ($>250\;{\mu}M$). These results indicate that the antioxidant effect of the hot water extract of C. japonica flower buds may partially due to 5 isolated phenolic compounds.

배수성 포장에 있어 기능적 평가인 투수성 실험과 더불어 소음저감 측정을 서울시에서 시공한 구간에서 실시하였다. 소음측정은 두 가지 방법을 이용하였는데 그 방법은 Pass-by 방법과 NCPX(Novel Close Proximity) 방법을 이용하였다. Passby 방법은 교통량에 따른 소음원이 전달되는 것을 측정하는 방법이고, NCPX는 타어어와 포장 표면간의 마찰음을 측정하는 방법이다. 현장투수시험을 위해서는 총 5개의 구간에서 실시하였으며 각 구간마다 주행부와 비주행부로 나뉘어 측정하였다. 3개 구간의 Pass-by 측정을 위해서는 교통소음원 발생점으로부터 인접한 곳에서 측정을 실시하였고 또한 공원내부 혹은 단지 내부에서도 소음을 측정하였다. 마지막으로 NCPX 측정은 4군데서 실시하였다. 결과적으로 배수성 포장의 기능인 투수성과 소음저감이 2, 3년 사이에서는 그 기능을 잘 유지함을 알 수 있었다.
