Three weeks old Commelina was cultivated in Hoagland solution with or without $(\pm{100\mu{M}\;Cd^{2+}$ and with $100\mu{M}\;Cd^{2+}+100\mu{M\; SA)$ for 4 days. The contents of $Cd^{2+}$ and nonprotein-SH synthesis in roots and isolated epidermal strips were measured. In the treatment of $Cd^{2+}$, the concentration of $Cd^{2+}$ was $98\mu{M}\;Cd^{2+}$/g.fr.wt and it was 6 times higher than that of control. $Cd^{2+}$+SA increased 1.2 times higher concentration of $Cd^{2+}$ than that of the treatment ofTEX>$Cd^{2+}$ alone. In the treatment of TEX>$Cd^{2+}$, nonprotein-SH also increased 2 times higher than that of the control. TEX>$Cd^{2+}$ + SA increased 2 times higher concentration of nonprotein-SH than that of the treatment of TEX>$Cd^{2+}$ as well. In case of isolated epidermal strips, the response was similar with the roots. Therefore, it suggest that the effect of salicylic acid on the accumulation of TEX>$Cd^{2+}$ and nonprotein-SH synthesis in roots, and isolated epidermal strips was related with an increase of the membrane permeability by SA and that SA may be positively involved in the process of nonprotein- SH synthesis.

Dose response forDNA repair synthesis induced by various concentrations of MMC (0.05 $\\sim$ 0.5 $\\mu$g/ml) in HeLa $S_3$ cells was not dose-dependent and the amounts of it were relatively lower, representing $7\\sim9%$ of total DNA synthesizing cells in $0.1\\sim0.5 \\mug/ml$ concentrations. Time dependence study showed that MMC-induced DNA repair synthesis occurred as long as for 24 hours with similar incidences in all time courses. Pretreatment with BUdR was found to have a sensitization effect on MMC-induced DNA repair synthesis, but that with IUdR was not. Combined treatment with BUdR of IUdR and MMC suppressed remarkably the semiconservative DNA synthesis especially at later time course. These results seem to suggest that damages induced in DNA by MMC might be repaired by both fast and slow excision processes.

We investigated that each site was substituted by new chemical components in Langasite ($La_3Ga_5/SiO_{14}$)-type structure with superior piezoelectric characteristics than $La_3Ga_5/SiO_{14}$. In this study $Ca_3TaGa_5Si_{2}O_{14}$ was synthesized by soilid-state reaction and grown by the $\mu$-PD(micro-pilling-down)and Cz technique. Lattice parameter and chemical composition was investigated by XRD and EPMA respectively.

Ni-CeO2 및 Ni-MgO와 같이 Ni이 포함된 나노복합물질을 고주파 유도결합 플라즈마를 이용하여 합성하였다. 이를 위해, 먼저, 1~100 ${\mu}m$ 크기의 가상 Ni 입자와 고융점 세라믹 입자가 플라즈마 유동 내에서 겪는 열전달 과정을 수치해석을 통해 묘사하였다. 묘사 결과로부터, 완전 기화한 Ni 증기가, 채 기화하지 못하고 고체 형태로 남은 세라믹 입자 위에서 균일하게 응축된 형태를 갖는 Ni-세라믹 나노입자 합성을 예측하고, 실제 합성 실험을 25 kW 급 고주파 유도결합 플라즈마에 0.1~10 ${\mu}m$ 크기의 Ni, CeO2 및 MgO 분말을 주입하여 수행하였다. 마지막으로, 실험을 통해 합성된 Ni 계 복합나노물질에 대해, FE-SEM 및 TEM 사진 분석과 EDS 및 ICP-AES 성분 분석을 진행하고, 수치해석을 통해 예측된 결과와 비교 검토하였다.

Hair loses melanin with aging, which leads to hair graying. The change in hair color is caused by a reduction in tyrosinase activity and an accumulation of hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) in hair follicles. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ethanolic extract of Oryza sativa (OREE) on melanin production and antioxidative activity in B16F1 cells. In this study, OREE showed low DPPH radical scavenging activity and reducing power. However, it displayed a strong antioxidative effect against intracellular $H_2O_2$ in live cells. OREE did not inhibit DOPA oxidation activity in vitro, but it increased tyrosinase activity at a concentration of $64{\mu}g/ml$. OREE at a concentration higher than $32{\mu}g/ml$ showed cell toxicity in B16F1 cells. However, OREE at a concentration higher than $8{\mu}g/ml$ not only increased melanin synthesis in a dose-dependent manner in B16F1 cells but also increased melanin synthesis in cells treated with $H_2O_2$ inhibiting melanin synthesis. To confirm the effect of OREE on melanin production, Western blot analysis was performed. The results revealed that OREE increased the expression levels of tyrosine hydroxylase and tyrosinase-related protein-2 (TRP-2) involved in melanin production in the $H_2O_2$-treated cells in which melanin production was inhibited. The findings suggest that OREE could improve melanin synthesis and be available for development of hair cosmetics aimed at improving melanin production.

Vegetable oil-based dimer acid derivatives were prepared through a two-step procedure and their lubricating properties for diesel fuel were evaluated using high frequency reciprocating ring (HFRR) method to investigate wear scar diameter (WSD). Diels-Alder reaction at an elevated temperature transformed fatty acid to dimer acid, subsequently converted into dimer acid derivatives by esterification with methanol. It should be noted that the derivatives were dissolved well in diesel oil up to 1 wt%. After adding 120 ppm of the derivatives to pure diesel, the WSD significantly decreased to $300{\sim}05{\mu}m$, compared to $552{\mu}m$ of WSD in pure diesel. Dimer acid derivatives having carboxylic acid show superb in lubricating property which does not depend on the alkyl group in the derivatives.

Poly(ethyleneglycol methacrylate-co-benzyl methacrylate) (P(PEGMA-co-BMA)) microgel was prepared by precipitation copolymerization of PEGMA and benzyl methacrylate in poly(acrylic acid)/ethanol solution. The microgels with various sizes were obtained by changing the concentration of poly(acrylic acid), monomer and nature of solvents. The particle size of P(PECMA-co-BMA) microgels was decreased with increasing the concentration of poly(acrylic acid) and increased with that of monomer. By increasing solubility parameter of solvents, the particle size was inecreased. The size of P(PEGMA-co-BMA) microgels was controlled by experimental conditions from $0.1{\mu}m$ to $0.35{\mu}m$.

GaN micro-crystals were synthesized through the direct reaction of $NH_3$with a Ga-melt. The bubbling technique in the atmospheric $NH_3$ ambient was employed and dark-gray-colored GaN micro-crystals with various sizes ranging from 0.5~30$\mu \textrm{m}$ were obtained. It was confirmed that product yield increased with increasing reaction temperature. The synthesized GaN micro-crystals were characterized by using a particle size analyzer, SEM, XRD and PL. The variation of reaction temperature from $850^{\circ}C$ to $1150^{\circ}C$ result in morphological change and in optical characteristics of GaN micro-crystals. Especially; GaN micro-crystals synthesized at 10sec showed the highest crystallinity and low yellow band luminescence.

This paper describes a new programmable DLL_based frequency synthesizer. Generally, PLLs have been used for frequency synthesis. Inherent fast locking DLLs are also used for frequency synthesis. However, DLL needs a frequency multiplier for various frequencies. A conventional frequency multiplier used in DLL has a restriction in which a multiple is fixed. However, the proposed DLL can generate clocks which are from 6 times to 10 times of the reference clock. Frequency range of the proposed DLL is from 600MHz to 1GHz. The idea has been confirmed by HSPICE simulations in a $0.35-\mu\textrm{m}$ CMOS process.
