To test the real image quality of a spectral attenuated inversion-recovery (SPAIR) fat-suppression (FS) techniquein clinical abdominal MRI by comparison to turbo spin echo inversion-recovery (TSEIR) fat-suppression (FS) technique. 3.0T MRI studies of the abdomen were performed in 30 patients with liver lesions (hemangiomas n: 15; HCC n: 15). T2W sequences were acquired using SPAIR TSEIR. Measurements included retroperitoneal and mesenteric fat signal-to-noise (SNR) to evaluate FS; liver lesion contrast-to-noise (CNR) to evaluate bulk water signal recovery effects; and bowel wall delineation to evaluate susceptibility and physiological motion effects. SPAIR-TSEIR images produce significantly improved FS and liver lesion CNR. The mean SNR of the retroperitoneal and mesenteric fat for SPAIR were 20.5, 10.2 and TSEIR were 43.2, 24.1 (P<0.05). SPAIR-TSEIR images produced higher CNR for both hemangiomas CNR 164.88 vs 126.83 (P<0.05) and metastasis CNR 75.27 vs 53.19 (P<0.05). Bowel wall visualization was significantly improved using in both SPAIR-TSEIR (P< 0.05). The real image quality of SPAIR was better than over conventional TSEIR FS on clinical abdominal MRI scans.

수소이온운반체로 HDBA(hexyldibenzylamine)나 HDPA(hexyldiphenylamine)을 이용하여 고분자막 pH 센서를 제작하였고, 온도 및 막의 두께 변화에 대한 전기화학적 특성을 연구하였다. HDPA를 이용한 센서는 수소이온에 대하여 선택적으로 감응하지 않았으며, HDBA를 이용한 센서는 pH 2 - pH 10 범위에서 수소이온에 대하여 선형적이고, 응답시간도 30 - 50초로 매우 빠르며, Nernstian 기울기는 53.6mV/pH을 나타내었다. pH 센서는 유리전극과 비교하여 알칼리금속과 알칼리토 금속이온에 대하여 방해를 적게 받았고, 재현성 및 안정성에 대한 편차는 2 - 4mV(${\pm}0.1mV$)로 우수하게 나타내었다.

도축장에서는 폐기되는 돼지 혈액으로부터 혈장을 분리하여, pH, 온도, 단백질함량에 따른 혈장 단백질 보수력의 변화를 조사하였다. 돼지 혈액으로부터 혈장분리는 1400g-force에서 가장 좋았다. 단백질 농도가 5%인 혈장액을 $85^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 가열하였을 때 pH가 증가함에 따라 혈장단백질보수력은 급격히 증가하다가 pH 7 이후에는 완만한 증가를 나타냈다. 단백질 농도가 5%이고 pH 7인 혈장액에서의 보수력은 gel화 온도가 높을수록 짧은 시간 내에 높은 보수력을 나타냈으며 가열 초기에 급격히 증가하다가 일정 가열 시간 이후에는 큰 변화를 나타내지 않았다. pH가 7인 혈장액을 $85^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 가열하였을 때 혈장 단백질의 농도가 증가함에 따라 단위 단백질 무게당 보수력은 감소하였다.

Synthesized 5-arylamino-2-methyl-4,7-dioxobenzothiazoles 3a-3o were evaluated for modulation of NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase (NQOl) activity with the cytosolic fractions derived from cultured human lung cancer cells and their cytotoxicity in cultured several human solid cancer cell lines. The 4,7-dioxobenzothiazoles affected the reduction potential by NQOl activity and showed a potent cytotoxic activity against human cancer cell lines. The tested compounds 3a, 3b, 3g, 3h, 3n and 3o were considered as more potent cytotoxic agents, and comparable modulators of NQOl activity.

DA-5018은 여러 opiate수용체 실험에서 morphine 또는 naloxone 보다 10-100배 정도 낮은 친화력을 나타내었다. 기니픽 회장표본과 랫드 수정관표본의 전기자극 실험에서는 DA-5018의 의해 유도된 수축반응이 naloxone의 영향을 받지 앉았고, 랫드에서의 진통효과도 naloxone 전처치에 의해 차단되지 않았으므로, DA-5018은 opiate 수용체를 경유하지 앉는 것으로 생각된다. 또한, OA-5018 120$\mu$M에서 cyclooxygenase 생성을 50% 증가시켰고 mM 농도에서 5-lipooxygenase 합성을 약간 억제하였으므로, NSAID계 유사약물이 아님을 확인하였다. DA-5018은 기니픽 기관 표본에 대해 capsaicin과 동일하게 수축반응을 나타내었고, 이것은 capsazepine 전처리에 의해 억제되었다. 척수에서의 substance P 유리활성은 capsaicin보다 약 9배 강한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 랫드에 DA-5018 진통유효용량인 1mg/kg을 피하주사한 후 분리한 척수에서 capsaicin에 의한 substance P의 유리활성은 15분 후에 감소하였고 120분 후에는 회복되었다. 따라서 OA-5018의 진통작용에도 substance P의 고갈이 관여하는 것으로 생각된다. 이상의 결과로부터, DA-5018의 진통작용은 capsaicin수용체를 매개하는 것으로 사료된다.

Acetohydroxyacid synthase (AHAS, EC 2. 2. 1. 6) is the enzyme that catalyses the first step in the common pathway of the biosynthesis of the branched chain amino acids, valine, leucine and isoleucine. For the first time, the AHAS gene from Bacillus anthracis was cloned into the expression vector pET28a(+), and was expressed in the E. coli strain BL21(DE3). The purified enzyme was checked on 12% SDS-PAGE to be a single band with molecular weight of 65 kDa. The optimum pH and temperature for B. anthracis AHAS was at pH 7.5 and 37 oC, respectively. Kinetic parameters of B. anthracis were as follows: Km for pyruvate, K0.5 for ThDP and Mg2+ was 4.8, 0.28 and 1.16 mM respectively. AHAS from B. anthracis showed strong resistance to three classes of herbicides, Londax (a sulfonylurea), Cadre (an imidazolinone), and TP (a triazolopyrimidine). These results indicated that these herbicides could be used in the search for new anti-bacterial drugs.

To direct the evolution of nanostructure and immobilize ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst, nanocrystalline La-doped-$Al_2O_3$ powder were prepared by the sol-gel process with addition of an amphiphilic block copolymer template (pluronic P123: $(poly(ethyleneoxide)_{20}-poly(propyleneoxide)_{70}-poly(ethyleneoxide)_{20})$. The dried gel is amorphous, whereas heating at temperature above $700^{\circ}C$ leads to the formation of nanocrystalline ${\gamma}$ and ${\delta}-Al_2O_3$ and these two phases is kept until $1100^{\circ}C$. ${\alpha}-A1_2O_3 $starts to form at $1200^{\circ}C$ with $LaAl_{11}O_{18}$. The surface morphology and crystal structure has been observed by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Solid state $^{27}Al$ MAS NMR indicates two types of local environment, i.e. octahedral and tetrahedral sites. The surface area and pore size was compared among these powders using the BET nitrogen adsorption measurements.

Purpose: This study was designed to examine the effects of a Halliwick rotation program on improving balance. Methods: Nine healthy females were randomly assigned to a Halliwick rotation program training as an aquatic group (n=9, age=$22.5{\pm}1.3$ years) or to a control group. The aquatic group trained using a Halliwick rotation program (3 times/week, 30 min/day) for 6 weeks. Balance was measured according to stance position: Hard Plate Open Eyes (HOE), Hard Plate Close Eyes (HCE), Soft Plate Open Eyes (SOE) and Soft Plate Close Eyes (SCE). This was done before the training and 3 and 6 weeks after the training. The data were analyzed with the SPSS Win 12.0 program using repeated measure ANOVA. Results: There were significant training-induced differences in SOE and POE (p<0.05), and in SCE and PCE (p<0.05) by Toe pad. There were significant training-induced differences in SOE and POE (p<0.05) by Heel pad after the aquatic rotation exercise program. Conclusion: The Halliwick rotation program can improve balance.

We have fabricated polymer light-emitting diodes(PLED) in a structure of Glass/ITO/PVK/Al. Poly(N-vinylcabazole) (PVK) was deposited on the ITO glass with the spin coating method. PVK thickness is respectively 500nm, 300nm, 250nm and 200nm with the spin coter rotation speed of 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000rpm. V-I, wavelength-transmittance, P-L and SEM of the fabricated devices were measured. From the result of P-L measurement, it was kept the optic properties of PVK raw powder when PVK thickness is 250nm. The knee-voltage of PVK PLED with 250nm thickness was 7V.

The effects of various environmental factors such as pH (5, 6, 7, 8 and 9), temperature (30, 37 and $40^{\circ}C$) and rotational speed (150, 200 and 250 rpm) on the growth and the hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg) production of Escherichia coli W3110IQ were examined in the present Study. The highest growth rate is achieved at pH 7, $37^{\circ}C$ and at a rotational Speed of 250 rpm which is 0.927 $h^{-1}$. The effect of pH on cell growth is more substantial compared to other parameters; it recorded a $123\%$ different between the highest growth rate (0.927 $h^{-1}$) at pH 7 and lowest growth at pH 5. The highest protein yield is achieved at pH 9, rotational speed of 250 rpm and $40^{\circ}C$. The yield of protein at pH 7 is $154\%$ higher compared to the lowest yield achieved at pH 5. There is about $28\%$ different of the protein yield for the E. coli cultivated at 250 rpm compared to that at 150 rpm which has the lowest HBcAg yield. The yield of protein at $40^{\circ}C$ is $38\%$ higher compared to the lowest yield achieved at $30^{\circ}C$.
