The characterization and sintering behavior of ZnO powders prepared by precipitation method were investigated. ZnO powders were synthesized using the aqueous solutions of ZnCl2 and NH4OH as a precipitation agent, which were crystallized in the shape of plate-like. The grain growth of ZnO(0.68${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 1.3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 3.4${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) has been studied for temepratures from 100$0^{\circ}C$ to 130$0^{\circ}C$, and the rate of densification was inversely proportional to the ZnO particle size. Densification proceeded slowly by diffusion mechanisms above at 100$0^{\circ}C$. In this work, the grain growth kinetic exponent(n) was 3. The temperature dependence of ZnO grain growth was plotted, and the activation energy of grain growth was 75~85Kcal/mol.

Segregational instability of a recombinant plasmid, pDML6, encoding extracellular $\beta$-lactamase in Streptomyces lividans PD6 was characterized by growth kinetic analysis. The quantitative determination of the plasmid harbored in the mycelia was evaluated with mycelia fragmented mechanically, and also with colonies regenerated from protoplasts. Conditions for the formation of protoplasts and regeneration of protoplasts were established. The maximal specific growth rates of the host strain and the plasmid-harboring strain in a chemically defined medium without selection pressure were the same. The probability of plasmid loss from the harbouring cells was higher at higher growth rates. Mathematical models for the prediction of cell growth, substrate uptake, and accumulation of the cloned gene product were developed.

Many compartment models assume a kinetically homogeneous amount of materials that have well-stirred compartments. However, based on observations from such processes, they have been heuristically fitted by exponential or gamma distributions even though biological media are inhomogeneous in real environments. Fractional differential equations using a specific kernel in Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PKPD) model are recently introduced to account for abnormal drug disposition. We discuss a tumor growth inhibition (TGI) model using fractional-order derivative from it. This represents a tumor growth delay by cytotoxic agents and additionally show variations in the equilibrium points by the change of fractional order. The result indicates that the equilibrium depends on the tumor size as well as a change of the fractional order. We find that the smaller the fractional order, the smaller the equilibrium value. However, a difference of them is the number of concavities and this indicates that TGI over time profile for fitting or prediction should be determined properly either fractional order or tumor sizes according to the number of concavities shown in experimental data.

Succinic acid-producing Anaerohiospirillum succinkiproducens was anaerobically grown in glucose-fed continuous cultures using glucose as a carbon source, and the metabolic flexibility of A. succiniciproducens in response to varying glucose concentrations and dilution rates was examined Both succinic acid (SA) and acetic acid (AA) formation was growth-associated, and their growth-rate-related coefficients ($K_{SA/X}$, $K_{AA/X}$) and nongrowth-rate-related coefficients ($K'_{SA/X}$, $K'_{AA/X}$) were slightly influenced by glucose concentrations. A high glucose concentration (38 g/l) and high growth rate ($0.63\;h^{-1}$) did not induce by-product formation.

Weak burn intensity limit에서 홀의 깊이를 계산하는 기존의 이론을 임의의 burn 세기에서도 계산할수 있도록 NPHB kinetic에 관한 유사 3-준위계를 이용하여 확장하였다, 이 모델은 같은 burn fluence에 대하여 burn 세기가 클 때는 다른 홀의 깊이를 burn 세기가 약한 경우에는 같은 홀의 깊이를 나타내었다. 이 모델을 이용하여 계산된 홀 성장곡선들과 기존의 oxzaine720/glycerol와 tetracene/MTHF glass의 실험 데이타를 비교하였다.

Computational modeling of signal transduction is currently attracting much attention as it can promote the understanding of complex signal transduction mechanisms. Although several mathematical models have been used to examine signaling pathways, little attention has been given to crosstalk mechanisms. In this study, an attempt was made to develop a computational model for the pathways involving growth-factor-mediated mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol 3'-kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt). In addition, the dynamics of the protein activities were analyzed based on a set of kinetic data. The simulation approach integrates the information on several levels and predicts systems behavior. The in-silico analysis conducted revealed that the Raf and Akt pathways act independently.

증착온도 $700^{\circ}C$, 산소분압30mTorr에서 c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 PLD를 이용하여 ZnO nano-rod를 합성하였다. 거리가 멀어질수록 rod의 직경과 증착율이 감소하는 것을 확인 하였다. 이는 ablated particle이 가진 kinetic energy가 감소되고, cluster ion의 형성으로 인해 고온에서 rod가 형성될 수 있는 것으로 이해된다. 고진공에서는 kinetic energy가 감소되기 어렵기 때문에 nano-rod shape 형성은 불가능 할 것이며, ZnO와 같은 wurtzite 구조를 가진 물질의 타겟을 사용하여 cluster 형성 분위기에서 증착한다면 비슷한 경향을 나타낼 것으로 예상된다.

Biological fixation of carbon dioxide using microalgae is known as an effective CO$_2$reduction technology. However, many environmental factors influence microalgal productivity. Optimal cultivation factors were determined for the green alga, Euglena gracilis Z, which offers high protein and vitamin E content for animal fodder. In batch culture in a photovioreactor, it was found that theinitial pH, temperature, CO$_2$concentration in air, and light intensity during the optimal cultivating conditions were 3.5, 27$^{\circ}C$, 5-10% and 520 ${\mu}$mol/㎡/s, respectively. When tap water and freshwater were used as cultivating media unsterilized tap water was found to be effective. A kinetic model was considered to determine the relationship between the specific growth rate and the light intensity. The half-velocity coefficient (K(sub)I) in the Monod model under photoautotrophic conditions was 978.9 ${\mu}$mol/㎡/s.

Intra-articular injection of ELHLD peptide is considered to have a therapeutic effect in osteoarthritis (OA) through the inhibition of transforming growth factor-β1. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of intra-articular injections of high-dose ELHLD peptide (100 ㎍/kg) in canine stifle OA. Six client-owned dogs diagnosed with stifle OA were included. Selected dogs were treated with an intra-articular injection of high-dose ELHLD peptide (100 ㎍/kg). Outcome measures, including orthopedic examination, gait analysis, and Canine Brief Pain Inventory (CBPI) score, were evaluated four times after injection. Orthopedic examination, gait analysis, and owner's assessment (CBPI) improved significantly from 4 weeks after injection. In conclusion, we obtained sufficient evidence from this small sample that high-dose ELHLD peptide improves clinical signs of canine OA not only through subjective assessment but also through objective evaluation.

This study is a basic research for repair material production which manufactured a Cu repair coating layer on the base material of a Cu plate using kinetic spray process. Furthermore, the manufactured material underwent an annealing heat treatment, and the changes of microstructure and macroscopic properties in the Cu repair coating layer and base material were examined. The powder feedstocks were sphere-shaped pure Cu powders with an average size of $27.7{\mu}m$. The produced repair coating material featured $600{\mu}m$ thickness and 0.8% porosity, and it had an identical ${\alpha}$-Cu single phase as the early powder. The produced Cu repair coating material and base material displayed extremely high adhesion characteristics that produced a boundary difficult to identify. Composition analysis confirmed that the impurities in the base material and repair coating material had no significant differences. Microstructure observation after a $500^{\circ}C/1hr$. heat treatment (vacuum condition) identified recovery, recrystallization and grain growth in the repair coating material and featured a more homogeneous microstructure. The hardness difference (${\Delta}H_v$) between the repair coating material and base material significantly reduced from 87 to 34 after undergoing heat treatment.
