The knife-edge scanning type OTF measuring equipment is improved to enhance the accuracy in off-axis OTF measurement and the accuracy of this equipment of evaluated by measuring the OTF of 50 mm plano-convex standard lens developed by SIRA group. Measured MTF values of the standard lens are in good agreement with SIRA results within $\pm$0.02 on axis and % $\pm$0.03 off-axis in 0-100 clmm frequency range except only a few spatial frequencies. Measured PTF values are good agreement with SIRA results within $\pm$$5^{\circ}$.

Rhodium(III)-$Cp^*$ complexes containing labile ligands, $[Cp^*RhCl_2]_2$, [$Cp^*Rh({\eta}^2-NO_3)$(OTf)], and $[Cp^*Rh(OH_2)_3](OTf)_2$, reacted with potential linking ligands [$L^1$ = (2-thiophene)-CH=N-N=CH-(2-thiophene); $L^2$ = (2-furan)-CH=N-N=CH-(2-furan)] to give two molecular compounds, [$Cp^*Rh(L^1)Cl_2$] (1) and [$Cp^*Rh({\eta}^2-NO_3)(L^1)$]$(OTf){\cdot}CH_2Cl_2$ ($2{\cdot}CH_2Cl_2$), and one 1-dimensioanl coordination polymer, $\{[Rh(L^2)]{\cdot}(OTf)}_{\infty}$ (3). Whereas one imine nitrogen atom within the ligand is coordinated to the Rh metal in compounds 1 and 2, both nitrogen atoms are bound to two neighboring Rh metals in compound 3 to lead to a 1-D chain polymer.

$Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)\;(OTf=CF_3SO_3^-)$ readily reacts with various amines to afford cationic amine complexes $[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(amine)](OTf)\;(amine=NH_3,\;NHMe_2,\;NHC_4H_8,\;NH_2Ph,\;NH_2(Tol-p))$ in high yields. These complexes have been fully characterized by IR, $^1H-,\;^{19}F{^1H}-,\;and\;^{31}P{^1H}-NMR$ spectroscopy, and elemental analyses. Reaction of $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ with acrylonitrile quantitatively produced the ${\pi}$-olefinic complex $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(CH_2=CHCN)](OTf)$ which is only stable in solution in the presence of acrylonitrile. Attempt at isolating this complex in the pure solid state was failed due to partial decomposition into $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ The equilibrium constants $(K_{eq}=[Pt(PCP)-(NH_2R)^+][CH_2=CHCN]/[Pt(PCP)(CH_2=CHCN)^+][NH_2R]:\;[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(CH_2=CHCN)]^++NH_2R{\rightleftarrows}[Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(NH_2R)]^++CH_2=CHCN=Ph,\;p-tolyl)$ were calculated to be 0.28 (for R = Ph) and 3.1 (R = p-tolyl) at $21^{\circ}C$. The relative stability of the ${\sigma}$-donor amine versus the ${\pi}$-olefinic acrylonitrile complex has been found largely dependent upon the amine-basicity $(pK_b)$, implicating that acrylonitrile practically competes with amine in the platinum coordination sphere. On the contrary to the formation of the acrylonitrile complex, no reaction of $Pt(2,6-(Cy_2PCH_2)_2C_6H_3)(OTf)$ with other olefins such as ethylene, styrene and methyl acrylate was observed.

Ovotransferrin (OTF) is a well-known protein of the transferrin family with strong iron chelating activity, resulting in its antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, OTF is known to have antioxidant, anticancer, and antihypertensive activities. However, there have been few studies about the immune-enhancing activity of OTF. In current study, we investigated the immune-enhancing activity of OTF using the murine macrophage cells in vitro. The effect of OTF on production of pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines were determined using Griess assay and quantitative real-time PCR. Using Neutral Red uptake assay, we confirmed the effect of OTF on phagocytic activity of macrophages. Ovotransferrin significantly increased the production of nitric oxide (NO) and secretion of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA with no cytotoxic activity. Ovotransferrin (2 mg/mL) stimulated NO production up to $31.9{\pm}3.5{\mu}M$. Ovotransferrin significantly increased the mRNA expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines which are tumor necrosis factor-${\alpha}$ (TNF-${\alpha}$), Interleukin-$1{\beta}$ (IL-$1{\beta}$), and IL-6: OTF (2 mg/mL) treatment increased the secretion of mRNA for TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-$1{\beta}$, and IL-6 by 22.20-, 37.91-, and 6.17-fold of the negative control, respectively. The phagocytic activity of macrophages was also increased by OTF treatment significantly compared with negative control. Also, OTF treatment increased phosphorylation level of MAPK signaling pathways. These results indicated that OTF has immune-enhancing activity by activating RAW 264.7 macrophages via MAPK pathways.

We revised the OTFTOOL which was developed in Five College Radio Astronomy Observatory (FCRAO) for the On-The-Fly (OTF) observation. Besides the improvement of data resampling function of conventional OTFTOOL, we added a new SELF referencing mode and data pre-reduction function. Since OTF observation data have a large redundancy, we can choose and use only good quality samples excluding bad samples. Sorting out the bad samples is based on the floating level, rms level, antenna trajectory, elevation, $T_{sys}$, and number of samples. And, spikes are also removed. Referencing method can be chosen between CLASSICAL mode in which the references are taken from the OFFs observation and ELLIPSOIDAL mode in which the references are taken from the inner source free region (this is named as SELF reference). Baseline is subtracted with the source free channel windows and the baseline order chosen by the user. Passing through these procedures, the raw OTF data will be an FITS datacube. The revised-OTFTOOL maximizes the advantages of OTF observation by sorting out the bad samples in the earliest stage. And the new self-referencing method, the ELLIPSOIDAL mode, is very powerful to reduce the data. Moreover since it is possible to see the datacube at once without moving them into other data reduction programs, it is very useful and convenient to check whether the data resampling works well or not. We expect that the revised-OTFTOOL can be applied to the facilities of the OTF observation like SRAO, NRAO, and FCRAO.

Availability of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) for the identification of ionic liquids (ILs) was tested. Commercially available ionic liquids (1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([BMIM] $BF_4$), (1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([BMIM] OTf), (1-butyl-3-methyl imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([BMIM] $PF_6$), 1-hexyl-3-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([HMIM] $PF_6$), and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([EMIM] $Tf_2N$) were qualitatively and semi-quantitatively analyzed with XPS. In order to confirm whether the results of XPS were correct, conventional method such as a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was performed. After the XPS results were convinced by NMR, we synthesized ILs (1-(4-sulfonic acid) butyl-3-butylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([SBBIM] OTf), 1-(4-sulfonic acid) propyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([SPMIM] OTf), and 1-(4-sulfonic acid) propyl-3-butylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([SPBIM] OTf) and analyzed it with XPS and NMR as well. It was successful the usage of XPS to analyze ILs without any purification processes.

Recently, it has been partly attempted to measure behavior of large-sized bridge using GPS, but it is accomplished at the first step and unsystemically. The purpose of this research is to measure bridge behavior by Kinematic On The Fly (OTF) technique of GPS. The results of this study show that bridge behavior can be measured easily and conveniently in three dimension, monitored at the real time, and measured continuously without a break by OTF Technique of GPS.

Efficient one-pot synthesis of arylmethylene bis(3-hydroxy-2-cyclohexene-1-ones) and xanthenediones by EDDA and In($OTf)_3$-catalyzed reactions was developed starting from dimedone and aryl aldehydes. The key strategies of these reactions involve domino Knoevenagel/Michael reaction or Koevenagel/Michael/Cyclodehydration reactions. The scope and limitation of the two catalysts under various reaction conditions were investigated and described.

On-The-Fly (OTF) observation method is developed for the efficient use of 6 M radio telescope at Seoul Radio Astronomy Observatory (SRAO). This technique, in which data and information of antenna position are recorded synchronously while driving a telescope regularly and rapidly across a field, provides more efficient use of telescope time and better calibration of the acquired data than the traditional point-to-point observation method does. For the realization of the method, we (1) added RT-Linux modules to the existing operating system, (2) replaced digital voltmeter with voltage-to-frequency converter, and (3) modified many SRAO observation programs. By observing Moon and G78.2+2.7 using this method and comparing them with previous observations, we verify the successful operation and efficiency of the OTF observation mode.
