Microspheres are expected to be applied to biomedical areas such as solid-phase immunoassays, drug delivery systems, Immunomagnetic cell separation. To synthesize micro-spheres for biomedical application, "two stage shot growth method" was developed. The uniformity ratio or synthesized microspheres was always smatter than 1.05. And the surface charge density (or the number of ionizable functional groups) of the microspheres synthesized by "two stage shot growth method" was 6-13 times higher than thats of the ml crospheres synthesized by conventional seeded batch copolymerization. As a previous step for biomedical application, adsorption experiments of bovine albumin on microspheres were carried out under various conditions. The maximum adsorbed amount was obtained in the neighborhood of pH 4.5. Isoelectric point of bovine albumin Is pH 5.0, so experimental result shows that it shifted to acid area. The adsorption Isotherm was obtained, the plateau region was always reached at 2.Og/L (bulk concentration of bovine albumin ) . The effect of the kind and the amount of surface functional group was also examined.p was also examined.

Light Rail Transit (LRT) system is a complex and large system in which there are many subsystems, interfaces, functions and demanding performance requirements. Because many contractors participate in the development, it is necessary to apply methods of sharing common objectives and communicating effectively among all of the stakeholders. This paper shows not only the methodology and the results of computer-aided systems engineering including requirement management, functional analysis and architecting LRT system, but also propose a tool to help manage a project by linking WBS (Work Breakdown Structure), work organization and PBS (Product Breakdown Structure). The application of computer-aided tool RDD-100 provides the capability to model product design knowledge and decisions about important issues such as architecting the top-level system. The product design knowledge will be essential in integrating the following life-cycle phase activities over the life of the LRT system. Additionally, when a new generation train system is required, the reuse of the database can increase the system design productivity and effectiveness significantly.

The application of LFH-PCR(long flanking homology region-PCR) for Bacillus subtilis gene disruption is presented. Without plasmid- or phage-vector construction, only by PCR, based on a DNA sequence retrieved from B. subtilis genome data base, kanamycin resistance gene was inserted into two genes of B. subtilis involved in sporulation, spoIIIE and spoIIIG. The effect of gene disruption on subtilisin expression was examined and the sporulation frequency of two mutants was compared to that of the host strain. For this purpose, only 2 or 3 rounds of PCR were required with 4 primers. We first demonstrated the possibility of LFH-PCR for rapid gene disruption to characterize an unknown functional gene of B. subtilis or other prokaryote in the genomic era.

To realize highly selective recognition of oxalate in water, a new chemosensing ensemble that behaves highly selective colorimetric recognition of oxalate in water at pH 7.4 has been developed. The ensemble was constructed by a pyrrole containing mononuclear copper complex and chromeazurol S. The ensemble shows a highly selective recognition of oxalate through an obvious color change from blue to yellow upon the addition of oxalate, whereas, other dicarboxylates such as malonate, succinate, fumarate, maleate, glutarate, adipate, phthalate, isophthalate and terephthalate do not induce any noticeable color changes. The oxalate recognition process is not significantly affected by other coexisting dicarboxylate.

Nano-delivery systems, such as nanoparticles, nanoemulsions, and nanoliposomes, are carriers that have been used to enhance the chemical as well as physical stability and bioavailability of bioactive compound. Food-grade nano-delivery system can be produced with edible biopolymers including proteins and carbohydrates. In addition to the low-toxicity, biocompatibility, and biodegradability of these biopolymers, their functional characteristics, such as their ability to bind hydrophobic bioactive compounds and form a gel, make them potential and ideal candidates for the fortification of bioactive compounds in functional dairy foods. This review focuses on different types of nano-delivery systems and edible biopolymers as delivery materials. In addition, the applications of food-grade nano-delivery systems to dairy foods are also described.

Milk proteins, such as casein and whey protein, exhibit significant potential as natural emulsifiers for the preparation and stabilization of emulsion-based delivery systems. This can be attributed to their unique functional properties, such as the amphiphilic nature, GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status, high nutritional value, and viscoelastic film-forming ability around oil droplets. In addition, milk protein has been used as a coating material in emulsion-based delivery systems to protect bioactive compounds during food processing and storage owing to its unique functional properties. These properties include the ability to bind lipophilic bioactive compounds and antioxidant activity. In this review, we present the use of milk proteins as emulsifiers for the formation of emulsions and food applications of milk protein-stabilized emulsion delivery systems.

By adding user interface to the usual router, an improved functional router is implemented in this paper. The proposed router is developed based on the SA1110 processor, and the system contains 1 ethernet port, 2 PCMCIA slots, and 1 serial communication port. The Emdedded Linux is adopted as an operating system, and application programs are implemented by using QT/Embedded.

지난 10년간 신경계의 MR영상은 컴퓨터를 비롯한 하드웨어적인 발달에 힘입어 functional imaging, perfusion imaging, diffusion imaging, MR spectroscopy, MR angiography 등의 분야에서 괄목한 만한 성장이 있었다. 지난 2001년 4월 국제자기공명의과학회 (ISMRM) 학술대회에 약 2300개의 논문이 발표되었으며 이 중 신경계와 관련된 논문의 수는 저자가 파악하기에 약 500개 정도이었다. 매년 수많은 논문이 발표되고 있으나 이 중 기초 또는 임상의학적으로 유용한 논문만이 후속 연구로 연결되어 궁극적으로 많은 사람들이 활용할 수 있게 되고 있다. 따라서 지난 수 년 동안의 연구 동향을 모두 follow-up하는 것은 무의미하며, 이 중 functional, perfusion, diffusion imaging을 중심으로 이들 영상 기법의 기술적 측면과 적용 분야를 알아보고자 한다.
