To identify the effect and mechanism of carbon monoxide (CO) on delayed rectifier K⁺ currents (I_K) of human cardiac fibroblasts (HCFs), we used the wholecell mode patch-clamp technique. Application of CO delivered by carbon monoxidereleasing molecule-3 (CORM3) increased the amplitude of outward K⁺ currents, and diphenyl phosphine oxide-1 (a specific I_K blocker) inhibited the currents. CORM3-induced augmentation was blocked by pretreatment with nitric oxide synthase blockers (L-NG-monomethyl arginine citrate and L-NG-nitro arginine methyl ester). Pretreatment with KT5823 (a protein kinas G blocker), 1H-[1,-2,-4] oxadiazolo-[4,-3-a] quinoxalin-1-on (ODQ, a soluble guanylate cyclase blocker), KT5720 (a protein kinase A blocker), and SQ22536 (an adenylate cyclase blocker) blocked the CORM3 stimulating effect on I_K. In addition, pretreatment with SB239063 (a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase [MAPK] blocker) and PD98059 (a p44/42 MAPK blocker) also blocked the CORM3's effect on the currents. When testing the involvement of S-nitrosylation, pretreatment of N-ethylmaleimide (a thiol-alkylating reagent) blocked CO-induced I_K activation and DL-dithiothreitol (a reducing agent) reversed this effect. Pretreatment with 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(1-methylpyridinium-4-yl)-21H,23H porphyrin manganese (III) pentachloride and manganese (III) tetrakis (4-benzoic acid) porphyrin chloride (superoxide dismutase mimetics), diphenyleneiodonium chloride (an NADPH oxidase blocker), or allopurinol (a xanthine oxidase blocker) also inhibited CO-induced I_K activation. These results suggest that CO enhances I_K in HCFs through the nitric oxide, phosphorylation by protein kinase G, protein kinase A, and MAPK, S-nitrosylation and reduction/oxidation (redox) signaling pathways.

Arylnitrile계 살균제인 chlorothalonil의 탈염소화를 촉진시키기 위하여 금속촉매인 zerovalent iron(ZVI) 및 manganese oxide(pyrolusite 및 birnessite)를 수중 처리하여 pH에 따른 chlorothalonil의 분해정도, 탈염소화 그리고 분해산물의 구조를 조사하였다. ZVI, pyrolusite 및 birnessite를 처리하였을 경우 PH가 낮을수록 chlorothalonil의 분해효율은 높게 나타났다. pH 5.0에서 ZVI, pyrolusite 및 birnessite를 각각 1.0%(v/w) 처리하였을 때 chlorothalonil의 분해반감기는 ZVI 4.7시간, pyrolusite 13.46시간 및 birnessite 21.38시간으로 나타났다. Chlorothalonil의 탈염소화 정도를 나타내는 D/N value의 평균값은 ZVI, pyrolusite 및 birnessite를 처리하였을 경우 각각 2.85, 1.12 및 1.09 이었다. Chlorothalonil의 분해산물은 GC-MS를 이용하여 분석한 결과 pyrolusite와 birnessite에 의해 chloride ion이 하나 이탈된 trichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene과 둘 이탈된 dichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene으로 확인되었으며, ZVI에 의한 분해산물은 pyrolusite, birnessite의 분해산물과 동일한 trichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene, dichloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene을 비롯하여 환원이 더 진행된 chloro-1,3-dicyanobenzene과 chlorocyanobenzene으로 확인되었다.

Nanocomposites based on $SnO_2-Mn$ were synthesized by the reaction of tin (II) chloride dihydrate and manganese (II) chloride tetrahydrate at a molar ratio of 10:1 in the presence of ammonium hydroxide at $80^{\circ}C$. The $SnO_2-Mn$ nanocomposites were stirred with fullerene [$C_{60}$] in a mass ratio of 2:1 in tetrahydrofuran to prepare $SnO_2-Mn-C_{60}$ nanocomposites; these nanocomposites were obtained upon heating the mixture of $SnO_2-Mn$ nanocomposites and fullerene [$C_{60}$] in an electric furnace at $700^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. The synthesized $SnO_2-Mn-C_{60}$ nanocomposites were confirmed through various characterization methods such as X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The photocatalytic activities of the $SnO_2-Mn-C_{60}$ nanocomposites were demonstrated by the degradation of the organic dyes BG, MB, MO, and RhB under 254 nm irradiation and evaluated using UV-Vis spectrophotometry.

Increasing water consumption produced sludge problems of the water treatment plants. The objective of this study is to investigate aluminium coagulants recovery n acidic and alkaline conditions. Water treatment plant sludge produced in Pusan Metropolitan City were tested for the aluminium extraction process. Experiment samples were obtained in summer from water treatment plants of Deoksan and Myongjang. Aluminium coagulants used in these plants during the test period were polyaluminium chloride(PAC), polyaluminium sulfate organic(PSO), polyaluminium sulfate silicate(PASS). Aluminium contents of water treatment sludge were in the range of 7.2~10.9% of the total solids. The recovery percentages for aluminium and iron by acidic extraction method was evaluated to 88% and 42% respectively. Extracted mass variation for other materials such as iron, manganese, total organic carbon was observed during the extraction operation. Alkaline extraction produced more than two times amount of total organic carbon than that in the acidic extraction process.

Organic compounds have a problem that the separation of structural isomer in the preparation process requires high energy consumption. This study proposes a new separation method of structural isomer using Magneto- Archimedes method. Firstly, the levitation height of 1, 6-DDA and 1, 10-DDA was respectively calculated by simulation of the forces acting on the particles under magnetic field, and it was indicated that they could be separated by the difference of levitation height. To confirm the phenomenon experimentally, white powders of 1, 6-DDA and 1, 10-DDA were formed into pellets, and were soaked in manganese chloride solution. Then the solution was put on the center of the cryostat of HTS bulk magnet (maximum magnetic flux density is 3T). As a result, it was confirmed that the separation of structural isomer by difference of levitation height could be possible.

Essential metabolic functions have been identified for seven macrominerals (calcirum, phosprorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, chloride, and sulfur), and eight microminerals (cobalt, copper, iodine, iron, manganese, molybdenum, selenium, and zinc). Major functions for each of these minerals are summarized. Considerable research suggests that chromium is also essential and that it functions by facilitating insulin activity. Studies are reviewed which indicate that chromium supplementation of animal diets may: 1) increase glucose removal from blood, 2) reduce carcass fat and increase lean in nonruminants, 3) alter egg cholesterol content, and 4) enhance immunity and disease resistance in ruminants. A number of other minerals including nickel, boron, vanadium, arsenic, silicon, lithum, and lead have been reported to be essential, but specific metabolic functions have not been defined for any of these elements. Limited research in poultry suggests that boron may be of practical significance in some instances.

자동차 및 에너지 산업의 적용을 목표로 고망간강의 기계적 성질 향상 연구가 활발히 진행된 반면 내식성 연구는 미비하다. 본 연구에서는 염수 환경 및 H2S 환경에서 4종의 고망간강의 내식성에 미치는 크롬 및 망간의 영향을 조사하였다. 비교재로 사용된 탄소강 대비 실험재의 부식 속도는 침지 실험을 통해 얻어졌다. 또한 내식성 기구 고찰을 위하여 상평형 프로그램을 통하여 녹 층을 예측하고, 침지실험으로부터 얻어진 녹 층을 XRD, SEM-EDS 및 TEM-EDS로 분석하였다. 3.5% NaCl 용액에서 크롬 및 망간이 모두 내식성을 향상시킨 반면, synthetic seawater에서는 크롬만이 내식성을 향상시켰다. 또한 이들 염수 환경과 달리 H2S 환경에서 크롬과 망간 모두 내식성을 향상시키지 못했다. 환경에 따라 강의 내식성에 미치는 합금 원소의 영향이 상이한 원인은 각각의 환경에서 형성된 녹층의 구성 물질의 차이에 의한 것으로 이에 대하여는 본문의 된 녹 층 분석 결과에서 자세히 설명되었다.

The combustion characteristics of cellulose Insulation treated with several metal complexes such as Aluminium hydroxide, Cupric sulfate pentahydrate, Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, Manganese chloride tetrahydrate and Tnisodium phosphate dodecahydrate are studied to evaluate the effectiveness as a potential flame retardant for cellulosic materials. In this study, we found that LOI values of cellulosic materials treated with the metal complexes are generally increased with the increase of their content. At high concentration, CS(24% ) and SP(24% ) show high LOI values, suggesting resistance to flame spread, The materials examined in this study were found to be relatively more resistance to smouldering and flaming combustion in comparision with untreated cellulosic material. The flammability behavior of the materials exhibits combustion process as follows : LOI$\rightarrow$smouldering region$\rightarrow$smouldering-flaming spread region$\rightarrow$flame spread region.

In this study, the influence of pre-treatment(bleaching, mercerization by liquid ammonia and caustic soda) on cotton fabrics were investigated on dyeing Rubia cordifolia extracts. Aluminium Sulfate, Iron(Ⅱ) Sulfate Heptahydrate, Copper(Ⅱ) Sulfate Pentahydrate, Tin(Ⅱ) Sulfate, Manganese(Ⅱ) Chloride Tetrahydrate were used as mordanting agents. K/S value and washing fastnesses of the dyed cotton fabrics pretreated under different conditions were investigated. The K/S values were increased in the order of bleaching, liquid ammonia and mercerization pre-treatment. It was found that the pre-treatment conditions did not significantly affect the color change. The colorfastness to washing of most of all dyed fabrics were over grade 4 regardless of pre-treatment condition.
