Hydrolysis reactions of 2-phenyl-4H,5H,6H-3-methyl-3-thiazinium perchlorate (PTP) and its derivatives at various pH have been investigated kinetically. The hydrolysis is quantitative, producing N-3-mercaptopropyl-N-methylbenzamide as the only product in the all pH ranges. The observed rate of hydrolysis of PTP was always of the first-order. For hydrolysis from PTP, Hammett ρvalues were 0.53, 0.84 and 1.13 for pH 5.0, 8.0, and 10.0, respectively. Bronsted βvalue was 0.53 for general base catalysis. This reaction is catalyzed by general w acetate concentration. However, as the amount of base becomes larger, the rate of hydrolysis reaction approaches the limiting values. The plot of log k vs. pH shows that the rate constants (kt) are two different regions in the profile; one part is directly proportional to hydroxide ion concentration and the other is not. On the bases of these result, the plausible hydrolysis mechanism and a reaction equation were proposed: Below pH 4.5, the hydrolysis was initiated by the addition of water to α-carbon. Above pH 9.0, the hydrolysis was proceeded by the addition of hydroxide ion to α-carbon. However, in the range of pH 4.5-8.0, these two reactions occured competitively.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the immediate effect on the change in muscle stiffness in the common extensor muscle (CEM) when using the spiral taping method to promote proprioception. Methods: There were 18 participants in this study. CEM stiffness was measured using a MyotonePRO device with the subject in a sitting position and according to the proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) arm pattern. Elastic tape was used as the material for the three taping methods employed in the study: kinesiotaping (KT), right spiral taping (RST), and left spiral taping (LST). The taping methods were applied to the wrist extensor muscle with elongation position. Additionally, when performing PNF arm patterns, spiral taping in diagonal and spiral directions was used to promote CEM proprioceptors. The change in CEM stiffness was compared with the initial data values. Results: The results of this study were obtained by comparing and measuring changes in CEM stiffness using three different tapings. It was found that the stiffness change of the CEM was significant compared to the initial value, and the increase in stiffness of the CEM after RST application was also significant. Conclusion: The results of this study show that by affecting the strength and activation of the extensor muscle, taping performed through the RST method had the most positive effect on the change in CEM stiffness.

PURPOSE. The aim of this Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopic study was to measure the degree of conversion (DC) of dual-cured resin cements light-irradiated through zirconia ceramic disks with different thicknesses using various light-curing methods. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Zirconia ceramic disks (KT12) with three different thicknesses (1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 mm) were prepared. The light transmittance of the disks was measured using ultraviolet visible near-infrared spectroscopy. Four different light-curing protocols were used by combining two curing light modes (Elipar TriLight (standard mode) and bluephase G2 (high power mode)) with light-exposure times of 40 and 120 seconds. The DCs of the two dual-cured resin cements (Duo-Link and Panavia F2.0) light-irradiated through the disks was analyzed at three time intervals (3, 7, and 10 minutes) by FTIR spectroscopy. The data was analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA (${\alpha}$=.05).Two-way ANOVA and Tukey post hoc test were used to analyze the 10 minute DC results. RESULTS. The 1.0 mm thick disk exhibited low light transmittance (<25%), and the transmittance decreased considerably with increasing disk thickness. All groups exhibited significantly higher 10 minute DC values than the 3 or 7 minute values (P<.05), but some exceptions were observed in Duo-Link. Two-way ANOVA revealed that the influence of the zirconia disk thickness on the 10 minute DC was dependent on the light-curing methods (P<.001). This finding was still valid even at 4.0 mm thickness, where substantial light attenuation took place. CONCLUSION. The curing of the dual-cured resin cements was affected significantly by the light-curing technique, even though the additional chemical polymerization mechanism worked effectively.

A kinetic study has been made for the growth of nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) particles to a continuous thin film on silicon substrate in a microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition reactor. Parameters of deposition have been microwave power of 1.2 kW, the chamber pressure of 110 Torr, and the Ar/$CH_4$ ratio of 200/2 sccm. The deposition has been carried out at temperatures in the range of $400\sim700^{\circ}C$ for the times of 0.5~16 h. It has been revealed that a continuous diamond film evolves from the growth and coalescence of diamond crystallites (or particles), which have been heterogeneously nucleated at the previously scratched sites. The diamond particles grow following an $h^2$ = k't relationship, where h is the height of particles, k' is the particle growth rate constant, and t is the deposition time. The k' values at the different deposition temperatures satisfy an Arrhenius equation with the apparent activation energy of 4.37 kcal/mol or 0.19 eV/ atom. The rate limiting step should be the diffusion of carbon species over the Si substrate surface. The growth of diamond film thickness (H) shows an H = kt relationship with deposition time, t. The film growth rate constant, k, values at the different deposition temperatures show another Arrhenius-type expression with the apparent activation energy of 3.89 kcal/mol or 0.17 eV/atom. In this case, the rate limiting step might be the incorporation reaction of carbon species from the plasma on the film surface.

본 논문에서는 억압 파일롯트를 이용하여 복소 지연 프로파일을 추정, 코히어런트 Rake 다이버시티 합성을 실현하는 동시에 얻어진 지연 프로파일의 극대점을 찾아 칩동기를 행하는 DS /CDMA 방식의 성능평가를 이동위성 채널에서 해보았다. 이를 위해 shadowed Rician 페이딩 시뮬레이터를 구성하여 그 포락선 변동특성을 조사 하였고 이론적인 오율해석을 병행하였다. 그 결과로서 Heavy shadowing인 경우 그 포락선 변동은 지상이동 통신채널의 Rayleigh 페이딩의 완만한 주기적 변동에 비해 랜덤한 특성을 가져 심각한 데이터 오류를 가져 오리라 예상할 수 있다. 또한 이론적 오율해석으로부터 DS /CDMA방식은 협대역 QPSK 방식에 비해 Average shadowing하에서 약 10 dB이상 개선되었다. 그리고 억압 파일롯트 채널을 이용한 DS /CDMA 방식은 이동위성 채널에서 파일롯트 채널대 송선전력비, $\beta$=-8dB, 복소지연 프로파일수 $N_{profile}$=32 일때 오율성능변에서 최적점을 나타내며, 이값을 이용했을 때 Light shadowing하의 오율특성은 이상적인 QPSK 오율특성과 같은 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The antiplatelet and antithrombotic activities of Korean Red Ginseng (KRG) were examined on rat carotid artery thrombosis in vivo, and platelet aggregation in vitro and ex vivo. Administration of KRG to rats not only prevented carotid artery thrombosis in vivo in a dose-dependent manner, but also significantly inhibited ADP- and collagen-induced platelet aggregation ex vivo, while failed to prolong coagulation times such as activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT), indicating the antithrombotic effect of KRG might be due to its anti platelet aggregation rather than anticoagulation effect. In line with the above observations, KRG inhibited U46619-, arachidonic acid-, collagen- and thrombin-induced rabbit platelet aggregation in vitro in a concentration-dependent manner, with $IC_{50}$ values of $620{\pm}12$, $823{\pm}22$, $722{\pm}21$ and $650{\pm}14\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Accordingly, KRG also inhibited various agonists-induced platelet serotonin secretions as it suppressed platelet aggregation. These results suggest that KRG has a potent antithrombotic effect in vivo, which may be due to antiplatelet rather than anticoagulation activity, and KRG intake may be beneficial to the individuals with high risks of thrombotic and cardiovascular diseases.

Acinetobacter strain $KNF2022^T$ was isolated from tobacco plant roots during the screening of antiviral substances having inhibitory effects on Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and examined by phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, and genetic characterization. It was a nonmotile, Gram-negative bacterium. This strain contained Q-9 as the main respiratory quinone. The major cellular fatty acids of the isolate were 16:0, 18:1 w9c, and 16:1 w7c/15 iso 2OH. The DNA base composition was 44 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on the 16S rRNA sequence revealed that the isolate formed an evolutionary lineage distinct from other Acinetobacter species. Based on the evaluation of morphologic, physiologic, and chemotaxonomic characteristics, DNA-DNA hybridization values, and 16S rRNA sequence comparison, we propose the new species Acinetobacter antiviralis sp. nov., the type strain of which is $KNF2022^T$ (=KCTC $0699BP^T$).
