본 연구는 구리 아연 금속합금의 산화 환원 반응과 합성 알루미늄 실리케이트의 흡착 반응을 이용한 폐수 중 중금속 처리에 관한 연구이다. 극세사 형태로 제조된 구리 아연 금속합금이 수용액 중에서 산화 환원반응에 의해 아연보다 이온화 경향이 작은 중금속은 환원 처리되고, 이온화 된 아연 및 미반응 중금속은 흡착 처리하여 제거하는 연구이다. 극세사 형태로 제조된 금속합금 물질은 표면적이 커서 1회 처리만으로도 반응 평형에 도달하게 하여 효율이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 크롬($Cr^{+3}$)은 redox 반응 1회 처리만으로도 100.0 % 제거 되었으며, 수은은 98.0 %, 주석 92.0 %, 구리는 91.4 % 정도 제거되었다. 카드뮴, 니켈, 납도 각각 40.0 %, 50.0 %, 58.0 %가 제거 되었다. 크롬($Cr^{+3}$)은 아연과 이온화 경향 차이가 거의 없지만 제거 효율이 높은 것으로 나타났는데 이는 3가 크롬은 이온 상태로 존재하면 redox 반응에서 발생한 $OH^-$ 이온과 결합하여 수산화물 침전을 형성하는 것으로 판단된다. Redox 반응 후 증가한 아연 및 미반응 중금속 농도를 알루미늄실리케이트를 1회 통과하여 거의 100.0 % 제거할 수 있었다. 이는 합성 알루미늄 실리케이트의 비표면적이 크고 금속 이온의 흡착능력이 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 반응 후 알루미늄 이온은 증가하지 않는 것으로 보아 이온 교환이 아닌 흡착으로 아연 및 중금속 이온들을 제거할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The diagnostic multi-leaf collimator preventing unnecessary dose from entering into patients during the diagnostic examination was made in this study. The movement of the entire 50 leaves was embodied with the group of 25 ones thereof configured in a pair facing each other on the left and right of the median line. Dimensions of the length, width, and height of each shielding leaf were $5{\times}0.5{\times}0.5cm^3$ resulting in the maximum boost field of $10{\times}10cm^2$. The material of multi-leaf collimator had the excellence on the machinability with the use of the SKD-11 alloy tool steel having the high wear resistance against frequent movement, and it was devised to control both-side's shielding leaves by moving 2 motors unlike existing remedial multi-leaf collimator that use as many motors as the number of 50 shielding leaves. Thereafter, the transmission dose of leaves, cross-leaf leakage dose, and inter-leaf leakage dose were measured by the developed multi-leaf collimator attached to X-ray equipment. An ionization chamber was used to detect doses there from, and the comparative analysis was carried out by means of the radiographic film that was easy to detect the dose leakage in between each leaf. Results obtained from the test conducted in comparative analysis yielded approximately 98%, 96%, and 94% of shielding efficiency realized at each level of energy of 80kV, 100kV, and 120kV it was confirmed there was no dose leakage resulted from the varied level of irradiation energy. Thus the multi-leaf collimator to be developed based on this study is thought that it could fully reduce the unnecessary dose to patients in the diagnostic test and the shielding efficiency thereof is expected to be increasing if it is made in a miniaturized form with a way of increasing the thickness of each leaf later for an extended application to general diagnostic purposes.

Objective: The pituitary specific transcription factor-1 (Pit-1) gene is responsible for pituitary development and growth hormone expression and is regarded as a pivotal candidate gene for growth and production in chickens. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the association of Pit-1 polymorphisms with growth and feed efficiency traits in yellow meat-type chickens. Methods: In the present study, five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Pit-1 were selected and genotyped by high-throughput matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry in 724 meat-type chickens. Results: Association analysis showed that rs13687126 of Pit-1 was strongly associated with body weight gain (BWG) and feed intake (FI) (p<0.05), and that rs13687128 was significantly correlated with body weight at 70 days of age (BW70), BWG and feed conversion ratio (FCR) (p<0.05). SNP rs13905622 was strongly related to BW70 and FCR (p<0.05). Furthermore, birds with the GG genotype of rs13687126 had larger BWG and FI than those with the AG genotype (p<0.05). Individuals with the TT genotype of rs13687128 were significantly higher BW70 and BWG than those of the CT and CC genotype, while FCR was just the opposite (p<0.05). For rs13905622, the AA chickens showed strongly larger BW70 and lower FCR compared with the AT and TT chickens (p<0.05). Additionally, an ACA haplotype based on rs13687126, rs13687128, and rs13905622 had significant effects on BW70 and FCR (p<0.05). Conclusion: Our studies thus provide crucial evidence for the relationship between polymorphisms of Pit-1 and growth and feed efficiency traits which may be useful for meat-type chicken breeding programs.

In the present study, we proposed a simple ESI-MS model for determining $Zn^{2+}$ binding (or dissociation) constants for zinc finger peptides (ZFPs) with a unique ${\beta}{\beta}{\alpha}$ fold consensus. The ionization efficiency (response) factors for this model, i.e., ${\alpha}$ and ${\beta}$, could be determined for ZiCo ZFP with a known $Zn^{2+}$ binding constant. We could determine the binding constants for other ZFPs assuming those with a ${\beta}{\beta}{\alpha}$ consensus conformation have the same ${\alpha}/{\beta}$ response ratio. In general, the ZPF dissociation constants exhibited $K_d$ values of $10^{-7}{\sim}10^{-9}M$, while $K_d$ values for a negative control non-specific $Zn^{2+}$ peptides were high, e.g., $5.5{\times}10^{-6}M$ and $4.3{\times}10^{-4}M$ for BBA1 and melittin, respectively.

Androgenic anabolic steroids (AASs) are synthetic derivatives of testosterone with a common structure containing cyclopentanoperhydrophenanthrene nucleus. Their use enhances the muscle building capacity and is beneficial during performance. The AASs are one of the most abused group of substances in horse doping. Liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry ($LC/MS^n$) has been successfully applied to the detection of anabolic steroids in biological samples. However, the saturated hydroxysteroids viz: nandrolone, $5{\alpha}-estrane-3{\beta}$, $17{\alpha}-diol$ exhibit lower detection responses in electrospray ionisation (ESI) because of their poor ionisation efficiency. To overcome this limitation pre-column chemical derivatization has been introduced to enhance their detection responses in $LC-ESI-MS^n$ analysis. The aim of present study was to develop a sensitive method for identification and confirmation of nandrolone and its metabolite in horse urine incorporating pre-column derivatization using picolinic acid. The method consists of extraction of targeted steroid conjugates by solid phase extraction (SPE). The eluted steroid conjugates were hydrolysed by methanolysis and free steroids were recovered with liquid-liquid extraction. The resulting steroids were derivatized to form picolinoyl esters and identification was done using LC-ESI-MS/MS in positive ionization mode. The picolinated steroid adduct enhanced the detection levels in comparison to underivatized steroids.

A conventional linear accelerator system requires a flat-topped pulse with less than $\pm$ 0.5% ripple to meet the beam energy spread requirements and to improve pulse efficiency of RF systems. A a line-type pulsed modulator is widely used in pulsed power circuits for applications such as accelerators, radar, medical radiation, or ionization systems. The high-voltage pulse generator system with an output voltage of 284 kV, a pulse width of $10{\mu}s$, and a rise time of $0.84{\mu}s$ has been designed and fabricated to drive a klystron which has 30-MW peak and 60-kW average RF output power. The high-voltage test was performed using the klystron load. This thesis describes the design and test results of high-power pulse generator system for industrial accelerator application. The experimental results were analyzed and compared with the design.

This study investigated the effect of centrifugation on tryptic digestion. This was done by applying different centrifugation speeds (6,000, 8,000, 10,000, 20,000, and $30,000{\times}g$) over various durations (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 min) to digest two model proteins - cytochrome c and myoglobin. The intact proteins and resulting peptides were identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Centrifugation greatly improved the tryptic digestion efficiency of cytochrome c, where either an increase in centrifugation speed or in digestion duration significantly improved the digestion of cytochrome c. However, centrifugation did not noticeably improve the digestion of myoglobin; 16 h of centrifuge-assisted tryptic digestion at $30,000{\times}g$ barely removed the myoglobin protein peak. Similar results were also obtained when using conventional tryptic digestion with gentle mixing. When acetonitrile (ACN) was added to make 10% ACN buffer solutions, the myoglobin protein peak disappeared after 6 h of digestion using both centrifuge-assisted and conventional tryptic digestions.

The popularity of diesel engines is derived primarily from their higher thermal efficiency resulting from higher compression ratio. NOx removal from the diesel emissions is very important to meet stringent emission regulations. NOx emission from diesel engines is removed by an urea-SCR or an LNT system. The urea-SCR system needs the urea-solution supply system with concentration and level sensor. This study was carried out to develop a sensor for the measurement of urea-solution concentration by an electric conductivity method. Considering experimental parameters were the material of electrode, two kinds of electric power(AC or DC), the distance between two electrodes, and the length of electrode. It was found that the AC electric power was more useful to measure the urea-solution concentration compared to DC, because it prevented an ionization of the urea-solution. The silver rod coated with Pt is the most useful electrode, tendency of which is similar to Pt rod, and the cost is more economic. We could also find out the optimum distance between two electrodes and the length of electrode was 10mm and 3mm, respectively.

The structural analysis of polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) and characterization of the hydrolytic degradation products after acid hydrolysis were performed using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Mass spectra of the PTT samples were analyzed using a self-calibration method as well as an internal calibration method with standard materials of known masses. PTT structures constituting the samples were determined from the analyses of the spectra, and their relative compositions were estimated. The MALDI-TOF mass spectra of the acid-hydrolyzed PTT sample showed three main series of oligomer products with different end groups in accordance with the hydrolysis schemes. From the spectra of both $Na^+$ and $K^+$ adducts, it was concluded that the PTT samples have higher affinity for $Na^+$ compared with $K^+$ and therefore show higher ionization efficiency with sodium ions when dithranol is used as a matrix. Two different wavelength laser beams ($\lambda$ = 337 nm and 355 nm) were tested and it was observed that the 355 nm beam was more efficient in obtaining the MALDI spectra of PTT using dithranol as a matrix under our experimental conditions.
