이미 밝혀져 있는 mariner 전이인자의 전이효소를 암호화하는 부위에 대하여 퇴화성 primer를 사용하여 PCR 방법에 의해 누에(Bombyx mori)에서 ariner 유사 전이닌자의 잠정적인 전이효소 부위를 클로닝 하였다. BmoMAR로 망명된 이 PCR 클론으로부터 추론된 아미노산은 152개로 다섯 개의 종결코돈이 삽입되어 있었으며, Drosophila mauritiana의 active Mos 1에 37%의 아미노산 상동성을 보였다. 또한, 기존의 곤충들에서 밝혀진 mariner-like element에 대한 상동성은 DNA 수주에서는 Apis mellifera에 59% 그리고 아미노산 수준에서는 D. mauritiana 7.9 clone에 37% 상동성을 보였다. 이 결과는 mariner-like element가 B. mori에도 존재하고 있지만. 이들 전이인자의 전이효소를 암호화하는 부위에 종결코돈이 발견되는 것으로 보아서 비활성 전이인자 혹은 일존의 selenoprotein으로 추정된다.

High quality nanoparticles of neodymium barium niobium ($NdBa_2NbO_6$) perovskites have been synthesized using an auto ignition combustion technique for the first time. The nanoparticles thus obtained have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, thermo gravimetric analysis, differential thermal analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. UV-Visible absorption and photoluminescence spectra of the samples are also recorded. The structural analysis shows that the nano powder is phase pure with the average particle size of 35 nm. The band gap determined for $NdBa_2NbO_6$ is 3.9 eV which corresponds to UV-radiation for optical inter band transition with a wavelength of 370nm. The nanopowder could be sintered to 96% of the theoretical density at $1325^{\circ}C$ for 2h. The ultrafine cuboidal nature of nanopowders with fewer degree of agglomeration improved the sinterability for compactness at relatively lower temperature and time. During the sintering process the wide band gap semiconducting behavior diminishes and the material turns to a high permittivity dielectric. The microstructure of the sintered surface was examined using scanning electron microscopy. The striking value of dielectric constant ${\varepsilon}_r=43$, loss factor tan ${\delta}=1.97{\times}10^{-4}$ and the observed band gap value make it suitable for many dielectric devices.

본 연구에서는 SO₂를 제어하기 위한 산화 촉매에서 platinum (Pt)을 활성금속으로 하는 촉매의 반응특성에 관한 분석을 수행하였다. Titania (TiO₂) 지지체에 다양한 precursor 형태의 Pt를 사용하여 Pt/TiO₂ 촉매를 제조하여 실험에 사용하였다. Pt/TiO₂ 상의 Pt²⁺ 또는 Pt⁴⁺와 같은 Pt valence state에 따른 SO₂ 산화의 성능 차이는 나타나지 않으며, PtCl_x과 같은 Pt chloride species는 전체적으로 SO₂ 산화 성능을 감소시킨다. 또한, XPS 분석을 수행하여 SO₂ 산화 반응 전/후의 촉매상의 valence state를 분석한 결과 SO₂ 산화반응 이후 lattice oxygen의 감소 및 surface chemisorbed oxygen의 증가를 확인할 수 있다. 따라서 Pt/TiO₂ 촉매의 SO₂의 산화 반응은 PtOx에 해당하는 lattice oxygen의 반응과 oxygen vacancy에 의한 산화-환원 반응이 진행되는 Mar-Van Krevelen 메커니즘이 주요한 SO₂ 산화 반응임을 판단할 수 있으며, 이러한 결과를 통하여 촉매 상에 존재하는 PtOx (Pt²⁺ 또는 Pt⁴⁺)의 oxygen species가 주요한 활성 site로 작용함을 확인할 수 있다.

This study evaluates the change of computer tomography (CT) number in the case of the metal artifact reduction (MAR) algorithm, using the phantom. The images were obtained from dual CT using a gammex 467 tissue characterization phantom, which is similar to human tissues. The test method was performed by dividing pre and post MAR algorithm and measured CT values of nonmagnetic materials within the phantom. In addition, the changes of CT values for each material were compared and analyzed after measuring CT values up to 140 keV, using the spectral HU curve followed by CT scan. As a result, in the cases of N rod (trabecular bone) and E rod (trabecular bone), the CT numbers decreased as keV increasing but were constant above 90 keV. In the cases of I rod (dense bone) and K rod (dense bone), the CT numbers also decreased as keV increased but were uniform above 90 keV. The CT numbers from 40 keV to 140 keV were consistent in the cases of J rod (liver), D rod (liver), L rod (muscle), and F rod (muscle). For A rod (adipose), G rod (adipose), B rod (breast) and O rod (breast), the CT numbers increased as keV increased but were constant after 90 keV. The CT numbers from 40 keV to 140 keV were consistent in the cases of C rod (lung (exhale)), P rod (lung (exhale)), M rod (lung (inhale)) and H rod (lung (exhale)). Conclusively, because dual CT exhibits no changes in image quality and is able to analyze nonmagnetic materials by measuring the CT values of various materials, it will be used in the future as a useful tool for the diagnosis of lesions.

The MarM247 based superalloy (8wt.%Cr- 9wt.%Co- 3wt.%Ta- 1.5wt.%Hf- 5.6%wt.Al- 9.5wt.%W- Bal. Ni) specimens were diffusion aluminized by for types of pack cementation methods, and their coating structure and their high temperature oxidation resistance were investigated. The coated specimens treated at 973K in high aluminum concentration pack had a coating layer containing large hafunium rich precipitates, which were originally included in substrate alloy. After the high temperature oxidation test in air containing 30 vol.% $H_2O$ at 1273K ~ 323K, the deep localized corrosion which reached to the substrate were observed along with these hafnium rich precipitates. On the other hand, the coated specimens treated at 1323K using low aluminum concentration pack showed the coating layer without the large hafunium rich precipitates, and after the high temperature oxidation test at 1273K for 1800 ksec, it did not show the deep localized corrosion. The nickel electroplating before the aluminizing forms thick hafnium free area, and its high temperature oxidation resistance were comparable to platinum modified aluminizing coatings at 1273K.

소백산 천문대에서 1997년 2월부터 1998년 3월까지 총 3일 밤 동안 VRI 필터를 가지고 AK Her에 대한 CCD 측광관측을 수행하여 얻은 관측점의 수는 V는 236점, R은 198점, I는 197점이다. 관측 기간 동안 주극심과 부극심 시각을 각각 1개씩 관측하였으며, 우리의 관측자료를 가지고 VRI 광도곡선과 (O-C)도를 만들었다. Wilson-Devinney 방법으로 우리의 광도곡선을 분석한 결과 AK Her는 접촉형 (모드 3)의 경우는 해를 구할 수 없었고, 나머지(모드2, 4, 5)에 대해서는 접촉형에 가까운 분리형 또는 반분리형이라고 할 수 있었다. 우리의 최근자료를 가지고 만든 (O-C)도에서 AK Her 공전주기는 Borkovits & Hegedus의 예상과는 다르게 1990년도 이후 증가하는 변화가 나타났다.

A sesquiterpene lactone, 1-O-acetyl-4R,6S-britannilactone (1) isolated from the flowers of Inula britannica L. var. chinensis (Rupr.) Reg. (Compositae), was found as an iNOS inhibitory constituent for the first time with an $IC_{50}$ value of 22.1 $\mu$ M which is more potent than the positive control, L-$N^6$-(1-iminoethyl)lysine ($IC_{50} =33.7 \mu$ M). Structure of compound 1 was identified by 1D and 2D NMR experiments and by comparison with the reference standard.

The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of rutaecarpine on DNA strand breaks and apoptosis induced by hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) in murine Hepa-1c1c7 cells. Oxidative DNA damage was estimated by nuclear condensation assessment, fluorescence-activated cell sorting analysis, and Comet assay. Rutaecarpine inhibited cell death induced by $500{\mu}M$ $H_2O_2$, as assessed by 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining. Treatment with rutaecarpine reduced the number of DNA strand breaks induced by $H_2O_2$, as assessed by DAPI staining and Comet assay, and increased quinone reductase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, and pAkt protein levels, as assessed by western blotting.

The effect of maize hybrid (Suco and Dekalb 765, DK 765), maturity stage (milk, $R_3$ and 1/2 milk line, $R_5$) and animal diet (Diet 1: 70% lucerne hay+30% maize silage; Diet 2: 50% maize silage+20% sunflower meal+30% maize grain) on ruminal stover dry matter (DM) degradability was studied. Additionally, morphological and chemical plant composition was evaluated. Fodder samples ground at 2 mm were incubated in three Holstein steers (400 kg body weight) using the in situ technique. Ruminal degradation kinetics was studied and the effective degradability (ED) was estimated for an assumed kp of 5%/h. The in situ data was analyzed in a complete randomized block design with the animals as blocks. Significant interactions between hybrid${\times}$diet and maturity${\times}$diet on kinetic digestion parameters were detected. In Diet 1, hybrids did not differ in degradable fraction, kd or ED, although a minor difference (p<0.05) in the soluble fraction was found (25.5 and 23.2% for Suco and DK 765, respectively). In Diet 2, the DK 765 had greater degradable fraction (p<0.001) but smaller (p<0.01) kd than Suco, without differences in the soluble fraction or in ED. Anticipating the harvest increased ED of stover from 37.5% in $R_5$ to 44.6% in $R_3$ (average values across hybrids and diets) due to the increase (p<0.001) in the soluble fraction ($R_5$: 22.6%, $R_3$: 28.8%). It is concluded that hybrids had similar stover in situ DM degradability and that soluble fraction represent the main proportion of degradable substrates. Advancing the date of harvesting may not improve the in situ DM degradability of whole maize plant silage since the increase in stover quality is counteracted by the depression in the grain-to-stover ratio. The diet of the animal consuming silage might not improve stover utilization either.
