  • 질소 등을 GST225 상변화재료에 첨가시켜 비저항을 증가시킴으로서 PCRAM의 동작 전류를 감소시킨 연구가 선행된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 GST225와 달리 고속 동작 특성을 갖는 것으로 널리 알려진 Ge-doped SbTe (GeST) 상변화 재료에 Carbon을 첨가하여 박막 특성을 연구하여 동작 전류 감소의 가능성을 타진하였다. 실험을 위한 박막 제작을 위해 2 inch size의 GeST 및 C doped GeST (C-GeST) single target을 이용하여 RF magnetron co-sputtering 하였다. 박막은 carbon이 첨가되지 않은 GeST와 carbon 첨가량이 늘어나는 순서로 C-GeST 1, C-GeST 2, C-GeST 3로 구성된다. 이 때 제작한 박막의 composition analysis를 위해 XRF/RBS/AES가 사용되었고 제작된 박막의 기본적인 특성평가를 위해 resistivity(${\rho}$)와 crystallzation temp.(Cx), surface morphology(AFM), x-ray diffraction pattern(XRD)를 측정하였다. 실험결과 GeST, C-GeST 1, C-GeST 2, C-GeST 3 박막의 Cx는 각각 209, 225, 233, $245^{\circ}C$로 측정되어 carbon 첨가량이 증가됨에 따라 결정화 온도가 증가되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 ${\rho}$도 마찬가지로 annealing 온도를 약 $320^{\circ}C$로 할 경우 ${\rho}$(as-dep)와 ${\rho}$(crystalline) 모두 0.03 / $2.61*10^{-6}$, 0.08 / $7.93*10^{-6}$, 0.09 / $11.99*10^{-6}$, 0.13 / $13.49*10^{-6}{\Omega}{\cdot}m$로 증가하였다. 증가된 ${\rho}$의 원인이 박막의 grain size의 감소라고 단언 할 수는 없으나 AFM 측정결과 grain이라고 추측되는 박막 feature들의 size가 점차 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • Acid-labile subunit (ALS) is a component of the 150-kDa insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) complex, which, by sequestering the majority of IGFs-I and -II and thereby prolonging the half-life of them in plasma, serves as a circulating reservoir of IGFs in mammalian species. A pGEX-2T plasmid and a baculovirus expression constructs harboring a coding sequence for glutathione-S transferase (GST)-porcine ALS (pALS) fusion protein were expressed in BL21(DE3) E. coli and Sf9 insect cells, respectively. The expressed protein was purified by glutathione or Ni-NTN affinity chromatography, followed by cleavage of the fusion protein using Factor Xa. In addition, pALS and hIGFBP-3 were also produced in small amounts in the Xenopus oocyte expression system which does not require any purification procedure. A 65-kDa pALS polypeptide was obtained following the prokaryotic expression and the enzymatic digestion, but biochemical characterization of this polypeptide was precluded because of an extremely low expression efficiency. The baculovirus-as well as Xenopus-expressed pALS exhibited the expected molecular mass of 85 kDa which was reduced into 75 and 65 kDa following deglycosylation of Asn-linked carbohydrates by Endo-F glycosidase, indicating that the expressed pALS was properly glycosylated. Moreover, irrespective of the source of pALS, the recombinant pALS and hIGFBP-3 formed a 130-kDa binary complex which could be immunoprecipitated by anti-hIGFBP-3 antibodies. Collectively, results indicate that an authentic pALS protein can be produced by the current expression systems.

  • There was not noticeable differences in decreasing blood alcohol concentrations between Korea and China-produced Hovenia dulcis $T_{HUNB}$, showing only 1-2 % higher decreasing rate for Korea-produced seed extracts than those from China. It was also found that the blood alcohol decreasing ability was greatly enhanced by partitioning the crude extracts produced from both places. The both extracts (crude and partitioned) accelerated the reducing rate of blood alcohol concentrations down to 1-2 hours, compared to that of control (taking only ethanol). The crude extracts from imported seeds seemed to have slightly better effect on improving in vivo ADH and ALDH activities than domestic ones; however, not for partitioned extracts. It was interesting that the partitioned extracts from both countries enhanced ADH enzyme activity up to 60% than the crude, compared to the control, while ALDH activity was not much affected by the partitioned extracts. It was also confirmed that both ADH and ALDH activities were well balanced in controlling blood alcohol concentration maintaining 28-29% of enzyme activities in vivo. The extracts proved to have better effect on enhancing ALDH activity than ADH activity, which is one of possible explanation that Hovenia dulcis $T_{HUNB}$ can effectively relieve the hangover by fast decreasing acetaldehyde concentration in the liver and blood. GST activity was also increased in the range of 120 to 300% by adding crude or partitioned extracts from both countries; however, there was no difference in enhancing GST activity between the extracts from two countries. The extracts showed competitive inhibition with GST activity, showing the reduction of enzyme activity at higher than 0. 6 (g/L) of the imported extracts.
