This paper describes athermally stimulated displacement current (TSDC) of arachidic acid(AA) and polyamic acid alkylamine salts(PAAS) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films, which is a precursor of polyimide(PI). The TSDC measurements of AA LB film were performed from temperature to about 11$0^{\circ}C$ at a rate of 0.2$^{\circ}C$/ｓ inside a vacuum chamber for a reference. And the TSDC measurements PAAS LB film were performed from room temperature to about 25$0^{\circ}C$ and temperature was increased at the same rate as that of AA LB film. They show that there are TSDC peaks at about 7$0^{\circ}C$ in the arachidic acid LB films, and at about 7$0^{\circ}C$ and 16$0^{\circ}C$ in the PAAs LB films. Results of these measurements indicate the one small peak at 7$0^{\circ}C$ is resulted from a softening of the alkyl group and the large peak at 16$0^{\circ}C$ is possibly due to dipole of C-O group in the PASS molecule. We have calculated the vertical component of the AA and PAAs L film out of the TSDC curves. It shows that the dipole moment of the AA LB film is about 70-mD at 7$0^{\circ}C$. And the dipole moment of PAAS LB film is about 040mD at 7$0^{\circ}C$ and about 200mD at 16$0^{\circ}C$ in the first measurement of TSDC. In the second measurement of TSDC of PASS LB film after cooling down to room temperature, the TSDC peaks are almost disappeared.

We were investigated the stability through the electrochemical characteristics of saturated fatty acid(C12, C14, C16, C18) monolayer LB films by cyclic voltammetry. Saturated fatty acid monolayer LB films was deposited on the indium tin oxide(ITO) glass by the LB method. The electrochemical properties were measured by cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system in 0.1 N $NaClO_4$ solution. The measuring range was continuously oxidized to 1650 mV, with an initial potential of -1350 mV was reduced. Scanning rates of 50, 100, 150, 200, and 250 mV/s were set. As a result, LB monolayer films of saturated fatty acid were appeared on irreversible processes by the oxidation current from the cyclic voltammogram. Diffusion coefficient(D) of saturated fatty acid(C12, C14, C16, and C18) was calculated 22.231, 2.461, 7.114 and 2.371 ($cm^2s^{-1}{\times}10^{-4}$) in 0.1 N $NaClO_4$ solution, respectively.

One bacterium, which showed strong antagonistic activity against H. pylori KCCM 41756, was isolated from kimchi. The strain NO1 was designated as Lactobacillus plantarum NO1 based on Gram staining, biochemical properties, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The culture medium $(2{\sim}4{\mu}g/ml)$ of Lb. plantarum NO1 reduced $(40{\sim}60%)$ the urease activity of H. pylori KCCM 41756. Lb. plantarum NO1 inhibited the binding of H. pylori to human gastric cancer cell line, AGS cells, by more than 33%. Lb. plantarum NO1 exhibited high viability (maintained initial viable cell count of $10^9CFU/ml$) in 0.05 M sodium phosphate buffer (pH 3.0) for 2 h, in artificial gastricjuice for 2 h and in 0.3%, 0.5% oxgall for 24 h. Hemolysis phenomena did not observed when Lb. plantarum NO1 was incubated in the blood agar media. We concluded that Lb. plantarum NO1 can be a good candidate as a probiotic, harboring anti-H. pylori activity.

The phototoxic potentials of LB20304a a new quinolone compound being developed by LG Chemical Ltd, and reference compounds (Ciprofloxacin; CPFX, Enoxacin; ENX and Lomefloxacin; LFLX) were compared in a murine model. in addition photostability of these compunds was studied after irradiation with long-wave UV light(UVA, 0, 0.3 1 or 3 Joule/$Cm^2$) When hairless mice(9 to 11 weeks old 19-26g) were orally administered with different dose levels of test compunds and exposed to UVA(40J/$cm^2$) inflammatory reactions were observed in a dose dependent manner. Among the compounds tested, LB20304a demonstrated the least phototoxic effects and showed no inflammatroy lesions at a dose level of 100mg.kg (Low dose). ENX and LFLX demonstrated much greater phototoxic reactions while CPFX showed similar or slightly greater phototoxic reactions compared to LB20304a. Similar to the in-vivo results the solutions of LB20304a and CPFX irradiated with UVA demonstrated reduced spectral changes compared to those of ENX and LFLX. In conclusion these data suggest that phototoxic potencies of the quinolones tested were; LFLX > ENX > CPFX $\geq$ LB20304a. No phototoxic dose of LB20304a in mice was 100 mg/kg.

We studied emitting properties of devices fabricated using the spin-coating and Langmuir-Blodgett[LB] technique. The LB technique has the advantage of precise control of the thickness better than spin-coating method. Poly(3-hexylthiophene)[P3HT] LB films used as the emitting layer in light-emitting devices. LB monolayers were deposited 27 layers onto the indium-tin-oxide[ITO] as Y-type films by the vertical dipping method. The thickness is about 80nm. Absorption spectrum of LB films presented that P3HT is regiorandom conformation. Also, current-voltage-luminance characteristics and electroluminescence spectra of light-emitting devices fabricated by LB method is studied. In current-voltage-luminescence characteristics, turn-on voltage of P3HT LB film LEDs is higher than that of spin-coating LEDs. But electroluminescence spectrum is similar to the spin-coating LEDs. The orange-red light was clearly visible in a darkened room.

We studied emitting properties of organic electroluminescent devices fabricated using the spin-coating and Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) technique. The LB technique has the advantage of precise control of the thickness better than spin-coating method. LB monolayer of poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) was deposited 27 layers onto the indium-tin-oxide(ITO) substrate as Y-type films by the vertical dipping method. In the absorption spectra, the λ$\_$max/ of P3HT-AA LB films and of spin-coating films showed about at 510, 545 and 590 nm corresponding to 2.43, 2.28, 2.10eV. And we observed that the turn-on voltage of devices deposited by LB method(10V) was higher than that of spin-coating method(8.5V) in voltage-current-luminance characteristic. In the logV-logJ characteristics of ITO/P3HT-AA LB/Al device, we confirmed that El device fabricated by LB method follows three conduction mechanisms: ohmic, space-charge-limited current(SCLC) conduction and trapped-carrier-limited space-charge current(TCLC) conduction.
