  • Objective : The using of termionology in medicine is important because terminology discriminates the meaning of words. In that aspect, there are conflicts that bao has plenty of meanings as medical terminology(womb and urinary bladder). Therefor, we need to discriminate and define bao. Method : We compare terminology of bao and words related with bao such as pao(胞) in "Dongeuibogam", "Hwangdineijing" and medical dictionary. Also we try to define right meaning of words as medical terminology. Result : Bao has several meanings in medical books. However, they have tendencies that could make scholars choose appropriate terminology in medicine. Conclusion : Bao is preferred as a womb and pao is prefferd as a urinary bladder in medical terminology.

  • Technetium-99m-hexamethylpropyleneamine oxime $(^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO)$ is a neutral-lipophilic chelate which is used for scanning cerebral blood flow. The labeling efficiencies of $^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO$ is known to be sensitive to the amount of pertechnetate added and the quality of the pertechnetate. Because of these factors, the manufacture recommends that HM-PAO kits be reconstituted with a maximum of 30 mCi pertechnetate which was eluted <4 hr earlier from a generator which had been eluted < 24 hr previously. So we measured the labelling efficiencies and the decomposition rate constant according to the amount of pertechnetate added, the volume of pertechnette added, and generator in-growth time. We used the 3-system chromatographic methods (paper & ITLC-SG chromatography) which analyzed the labelling efficiencies of the $^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO$. There was no significant difference in labelling efficiencies between variable pertechnetate acitvities added. ($39.9{\pm}4.9\;mCi:\;87.8{\pm}5.1\;(%)$, $60.8{\pm}5.0\;mCi:\;90.7{\pm}2.2\;(%)$, $79.0{\pm}6.0\;mCi:\;86.8{\pm}3.9\;(%)$, $106.6{\pm}11.6\;mCi:\;87.7{\pm}1.2\;(%)$, p>0.05) No significant difference in labelling efficiencies were found between pertechnetate of 4ml and 5ml. (4ml : $89.1{\pm}3.2(%)$, 5ml: $87.3{\pm}4.0(%)$, p>0.05). There was no difference between 1-6 and 10-48 hr of generator in-growth time. (1-6 hr: $87.8{\pm}4.0(%)$, 10-48 hr: $89.6{\pm}1.6(%)$, p>0.05) The mean value of decomposition rate constant was $0.196{\pm}0.097\;(hr^{-1})$, and there were no difference according to the amount of pertecnetate added and the volume of pertecnetate added, ($39.9{\pm}4.9\;mCi:\;0.208{\pm}0.059\;(hr^{-1})$, $60.8{\pm}5.0\;mCi:\;0.191{\pm}0.100\;(hr^{-1})$ $79.0{\pm}6.0\;mCi:\;0.192{\pm}0.118\;(hr^{-1})$, $106.6{\pm}11.6\;mCi:\;0.212{\pm}0.030\;(hr^{-1})$, p>0.05, 4 ml: $0.200{\pm}0.074\;(hr^{-1})$, Sml: $0.193{\pm}0.115\;(hr^{-1})$, p>0.05). In the case of using the first eluate, the labelling efficiency of $^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO$ W3S 82.1%. These data suggest that there were no significant alteration in labelling efficiency of $^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO$ according to the considerable range of pertechnetate activities and volume added, and generator in-growth time. Also, it was shown that one vial of HM-PAO kit supplied the $^{99m}Tc-HM-PAO$ which was used for 3-4 patients.

  • Graphene has been reported to be an excellent lubricant additive that reduces friction and wear when coated on the surface of various materials or when dispersed in lubricants as an atomic thin material with the low surface energy. In this study, alkyl functionalized graphene oxide (FGO) nanosheets for oil-based lubricant additives were prepared by using three types of alkyl chloride chemicals (butyl chloride, octyl chloride, and tetradecyl chloride). The chemical and structural properties of the synthesized FGOs were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The synthesized FGOs were dispersed at 0.02 wt% in PAO-0W40 oil and its tribological characteristics were investigated using a high frequency friction/wear tester. The friction coefficient and the wear track width of poly alpha olefin (PAO) oil added with FGO-14 were tested by a ball-on-disk method, and the measured results were reduced by ~5.88 and ~3.8%, respectively compared with those of the conventional PAO oil. Thus, it was found that the wear resistance of PAO oil was improved. In this study, we demonstrated the successful functionalization of GO as well as the improvement of dispersion stability and tribological characteristics of FGOs based on various alkyl chain lengths.

  • This study was conducted to find the effect of electron acceptors on the formation of granular sludge by using four different types of electron acceptors. The phosphorous uptake, denitrification, and sulfate reduction in anoxic modes were simultaneously occured because of the presence of the polyphosphate accumultating organism(PAO) that utilize nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptor in the anoxic zone. Denitrirying phosphorous removal bacteria(DPB) was enriched under anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic condition with a nitrate as an electron acceptor, and desulfating phosphorous removal bacteria(DSPB) was enriched under anaerobic/anoxic/aerobic condition with a sulfate as an electron acceptor. Polyphosphate accumulating organism(PAO) were enriched in the anaerobic/aerobic SBR. PAO took up acetate faster than DPB and DSPB during the aerobic phase. The sludge with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors grew as a granules which possessed high activity and good settleability. In the anaerobic/aerobic modes, typical floccular growth was observed. In the result of bench-scale experiment, simultaneous reactions of phosphorus uptake, denitrification and sulfate reduction were observed under anoxic condition with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors. These results demonstrated that the anaerobic/anoxic modes with nitrate and sulfate as an electron acceptors played an important role in the formation of the sludge granulation.

  • HM-PAO was synthesized by two step reaction. d, 1-HM-PAO was separated from the racemic product by fractional recrystalization in ethylacetate, and the chemical structure and purity was confirmed by proton NMR spectroscopy. The synthesized 0, 1-HM-PAO was labeled with $^{99m}Tc$ and studied the biodistribution in mice. From the results we could find that liver uptake of synthesized $^{99m}Tc$ d, 1-HM-PAO was higher than that of Amersham kit, but no conspicuous difference was found in brain and other tissues (blood, lung, stomach, intestine, muscle, spleen and kidney).

  • These days, coal is one of the most important energy resources used for transportation, industry, and electricity. There are two types of coal: high-rank and low-rank. Low-rank coal has a low calorific value and contains large amounts of useless moisture. The quality of low-rank coal can be increased by simple drying technology and it needs to be stabilized by hydrocarbons (e.g. palm acid oil, PAO) to prevent spontaneous combustion and moisture re-adsorption. Spontaneous combustion becomes a major problem during coal mining, storage, and transportation. It can involve the loss of life, property, and economic value; reduce the quality of the coal; and increase greenhouse gas emissions. Besides spontaneous combustion, moisture re-adsorption also leads to a decrease in quality of the coal due to its lower heating value. In this work, PAO was used for additive to stabilize the upgraded coal. The objectives of the experiments were to determine the stabilization characteristic of coal by analyzing the behavior of upgraded coal by drying and PAO addition regarding crossing-point temperature of coal, the moisture behavior of briquette coal, and thermal decomposition behavior of coal.

  • This study was carried out to get phosphorus uptake rate in aerobic condition with nitrate and nitrite. Nitrate and nitrite inhibited phosphorus accumulating organisms' (PAOs') luxury uptake in aerobic condition. Nitrite awfully decreased the phosphorus uptake rate in aerobic condition. At the influent of 10 mg ${NO_3}^-$-NL, the phosphorus uptake was decreased to 52% comparing that at no influent of nitrate. And at the influent of 10 mg ${NO_2}^-$-NL, the phosphorus uptake was decreased to 28% comparing that at no influent of nitrite. At the influent of 20 mg ${NO_3}^-$-NL, nitrite and nitrate were co-existed and the phosphorus uptake rate was decreased to 16% comparing that at no influent of nitrite and nitrate. Also, the denitrification was occurred by denitrifying glycogen accumulating organisms (DGAOs)/denitrifying phosphorus accumulating organisms (OPAOs) in spite of aerobic condition, and the phosphorus uptake rate was increased by the decrease of influent nitrate concentration at the aerobic condition. The inflection point in the phosphorus uptake rate was shown at the nitrite concentration of 1.5~2 mg/L.
