  • 이 논문은 저궤도 우주환경하에서 그래핀 충진 고분자 나노복합재료에 대한 물성 변화를 고찰하였다. 고분자 기지재와의 적합성과 원자산소 공격에 대한 탄소재료의 저항성을 향상시키기 위해 유기실란으로 그래핀 옥사이드의 표면을 실란처리를 수행하였다. 실란이 그래핀 옥사이드 표면에 결합여부를 XPS 장비를 사용하여 분석하였다. 실란 처리된 그래핀 옥사이드와 실란 처리하지 않은 그래핀 옥사이드를 강화재로 사용한 나노복합재료를 제작하여 순수 에폭시와 인장물성을 비교하였으며, 모사된 저궤도 우주환경에서의 물성 변화를 관찰하였다. 그 결과 실란처리를 하여 그래핀 나노 복합재료를 제작할 경우 우주환경요소 중 원자 산소에 저항성을 가지는 것을 확인하였으며, 실란처리를 하지 않은 경우에는 오히려 성능이 감소함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Methods have been developed to evaluate the total antioxidant capacity of foods and plasma but limitations are associated with their ability to determine precisely the contribution of lipophilic antioxidants in a lipid milieu as well as interactions among them Thus, we modified the Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) assay to determine the peroxyradical scavenging ability of both hydrophilic and lipophilic compartments in plasma The hydrophilic ORAC assay was performed in a phosphate buffer system utilizing 2,2'-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride as a peroxyradical generator and fluorescein as the target The lipophilic ORAC assay was carried out in a dimethylsulfoxide :butyronitrile (DMSO/BN, 9:1 v/v) system using 2,2'-azobis (2,4-dimethyl valeronitrile) as a peroxyradical generator and BODIPY C11 581/591 as the target Analyses were conducted in bovine serum supplemented with water - and lipid - soluble antioxidants and in human plasma. Albumin (0.5$\sim$5 g/dL) and uric acid (0.1$\sim$0.5 $\mu$mol/L) increased hydrophilic ORAC values in a dose-dependent fashion ($R^{2}$=0.97 and 0.98, respectively) but had no impact on lipophilic ORAC values. $\alpha$-Tocopherol (15$\sim$200 $\mu$mol/L) increased lipophilic ORAC values in a dose-dependent fashion ($R^{2}$=0.94); neither $\alpha$-tocopherol nor $\beta$-carotene had an impact on hydrophilic ORAC values. However, addition of $\beta$-carotene at physiological concentration (0.23$\sim$1.86 $\mu$mol/L), either alone or in combination with other carotenoids, had no significant impact on lipophilic ORAC values. Thus, while assays of 'total antioxidant capacity' in biological matrices would be a useful research and clinical tool, existing methods are limited by the lack of complete responsiveness to the full range of dietary antioxidants.

  • 허혈성 뇌손상시 칼슘길항제, 항산화제와 산소라디칼 제거제 그리고 흥분성 아미노산 수용체 길항제의 보호효과를 검토하기 위해 본 연구에서는 랫트 뇌 해마조직 절편을 산소와 포도당을 제거한 반응액에 노출시켜 실험적 허혈상태를 유도하였다. 그리고 여러 약물을 처리한 상태에서 허혈시의 뇌세포 손상정도를 생화학적 지표들(절편내 ATP와 반응액내 lactate 및 malondialdehyde (MDA)유리량)을 측정하여 검토하였다. 60분까지 허혈상태를 유발시킨 경우 시간에 따라 절편내 ATP 함량이 감소하였고 lactate 유리량이 증가하였다. 그 후 산소와 포도당이 든 반응액으로 바꿔주니 이들 생화학적 변화들이 회복되는 양상을 보였다. 그러나 본 실험조건에서 허혈상태로부터 완전히 회복되지는 않았다. 동일한 허혈조건에서 verapamil과 비타민 E는 ATP 함량 감소와 절편으로부터의 lactate 유리량의 증가에 대해 보고효과를 보였다. 그리고 verapamil과 diltiazem은 반응액내로의 MDA유리를 감소시켰다. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione과 MK-801 (NMDA 수용체 길항제)은 20분 허혈조건에서 ATP 함량을 증가시켰으나 그외 다른 조건에서 보호효과를 보이지 않았다. 허혈 후 20분간 산소와 포도당을 재공급한 경우 verapamil은 ATP 함량과 lactate 유리에 보호효과를 보였다. 한편 비타민 E는 20분 허혈 조건에서의 lactate 유리와 60분 허혈시의 MDA 유리 증가에 대해 감소효과를 보였다. 이상의 결과는 칼슘길항제와 비타민 E가 랫트 뇌절편에서의 허혈성 생화학적 손상을 방지함으로 나타난 결과로 해석되며, 칼슘갈항제의 효과가 비타민 E보다 우수함으로 미루어 칼슘길항제는 허혈성 뇌손상에 예방 및 보고효과를 보일 것으로 믿어졌다.

  • Nowadays, many people have a lot of time on chair in their life. If the sitting posture is not correct, there is some trouble with the waist. And if the sitting posture goes on long time at a slant, it sometimes causes the hurts of waist or the deformded spinal column. A crouched posture is an obstacle to breath and it give rise to drowsiness because of the lack of oxygen. The sitting posture is a habit so that people can't feel it oneself and look over some kind of risks. The evaluation of the sitting posture is analyzed by measuring EMG of spinal both side of spinal-bones. In this paper, we can evaluate a right the sitting posture by analyzing the increase of the tention of muscle in one or the other side of muscles when the posture inclines one side and describes the usefulness of the signal of EMG to evaluate the influence of the sitting posture on waist.

  • Recently, much attention has been paid to the physiological functions of flavonoids associated with their antioxidant properties. However, there was a lack of information on the molecular mechanism at which flavonoids play the antioxidative role. We have already studied on the oxidation of quercetin with hydrogen peroxide and sodium hypochlorite in alcoholic aqueous solution and determined the oxidation products. Through the structural analysis of the oxidation products, it was clarified that the hydroxyl group at C-3 in the C ring plays the important role in the antioxidative action of quercetin. Successively, rutin and (+)-catechin were oxidized with sodium hypochlorite and their mono- and di-chlorinated derivatives were obtained. These facts indicate that these flavonoids can directly scavenge hypochlorous acid and the active site in this scavenging reaction is not the hydroxyl group at C-3.

  • A chlorine gas is a common irritant and when exposed, it result in mild occular, oropharyngeal, or respiratory symptoms. In severe case, however, it may result in pulmonary edema, interstitial pneumonia, or respiratory failure. We report the case of 29-year-old and 46-year-old men is accidentally exposed to chlorine gas during cleaning water. The patients complained dyspnea, chest tightness, cough and both eye pain. During hospitalization, they were treated with inhalation of humidified oxygen, beta-adrenergic agonist and $2\%$ sodium bicarbonate. After several days, patients were discharged without respiratory symptoms and complication. In treatment of chlorine gas toxicity the inhalation of sodium bicarbonate is a possible initial therapy can improve respiratory symptoms in spite of lack of evidence.

  • Yb/YAG single crystals were grown from the melt composition of Y/sub 1-x/Yb/sub x/)₃Al/sub 5/O/sub 12/ where x equal to 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 33, 50, 75 and 100 at % by floating zone method. Optimum growth parameters to get high quality single crystals were 3.5 mm/h of growth rate and 20 rpm of rotation rate under the N₂ atmosphere. After the growth, color of crystals was appeared with pale blue due to the lack of oxygen, but it was disappeared after annealing at 1450℃ for 2 hr. Absorption coefficients were linearly increased depending on the concentration of Yb/sup 3+/ ions. Broad emission band was measured in the range of 1020 to 1050 nm with the peak intensity at 1031 nm and 1051 nm because of ²F/sub 5/2/(1)→²F/sub 7/2/(3) and ²F/sub 5/2/(1)→²F/sub 7/2/(4) transition respectively. When Yb/sup 3+/ ions were substituted with high rates, there were tendency to decrease the measured fluorescent lifetime for Yb ions depending on the concentration of Yb/sup 3+/ ions.

  • Due to its lack of wave action and tide ecosystem in Inchon dock lacks in marine characteristics. Structural condition in the dock is artificially similar to that of lake. The purposes of this study was to clarify the water quality, to provide the basic physicochemical data and tl resolve the causation of ?미 blooming. Samples were obtained monthly from four stations in Inchon dock during January to December, 1991. Water temperature ranged from $2.7^{\circ}C$ to $27.6^{\circ}C$ under the strong influence of air temperature. Salinity varied between 24.7%-30.4% thus being influenced by freshwater discharged from a spring. Dissolved oxygen was concentrated from 0.1-13.92 mg/l and suspended solids were 6.9-231.0 mg/l. The physicochemical factors were similar to those investigated 10 years ago. However, increased concentration of nitrogenous nutrients initiated ?미 blooming and its process was accelerated to reach eutrophication. Algal blooming was proceeded in March and August.

  • In oder to analyze the effect of operating conditions on pulverized coal combustion, a numerical study is conducted at the pulverized coal combustor. Eulerian approach is used for the gas phase, whereas Lagrangian approach is used for the particle phase. Turbulence is modeled using standard ${\kappa}-{\varepsilon}$ model. The description of species transport and combustion chemistry is based on the mixture fraction/probability density function(PDF) approach. Radiation is modeled using P-l model. The turbulent dispersion of particles is modeled using discrete random walk model. Swirl number of secondary air affects the flame front, particle residence time and carbon conversion. Primary/Secondary air mass ratio also affects the flame front but little affects the carbon conversion and particle residence time. Air-fuel ratio only affects the flame front due to lack of oxygen. Radiation strongly affects the flame front and gas temperature distribution because pulverized coal flame of high temperature is considered.
