The numbers of $CCR3^+\;cells,\;CD4^+\;cells\;and\;CD8^+\;cells$ in the lungs, and $CD3e^+/CD69^+$ in the lungs of the mice group treated with PR-HA decreased significantly compared with those of control group. 7. The mRNA expression of ${\beta}-actin,\;TNF-{\alpha}$, IL-4, IL-5,IL-13 in the mice group treated with PR-HA with RT-PCR decreased significantly compared with those of control group. Conclusion : The concentrations of IL-4, IL-5, IgE in BALF, and IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 in serum of the mice group treated with PR-HA decreased significantly compared with those of control group. The number of $Gr-1^+/CD11b^+\;and\;CD11b^+$ cells in the lungs of the mice group treated with PR-HA decreased significantly compared with that of control group. The numbers of $CCR3^+\;cells,\;CD4^+\;cells\;and\;CD8^+\;cells$ in the lungs, and $CD3e^+/CD69^+$ in the lungs of the mice group treated with PR-HA decreased significantly compared with those of control group.

Cyanex 572에 의한 경희토류 다성분 혼합 용액에서 La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm의 분리특성에 대해 연구하였다. 5성분계 혼합 용액에서 추출제 농도가 증가할수록 5성분 모두 $pH_{50}$(추출율이 50%인 pH) 값은 감소하였다. 추출제 농도 0.6 M 이상에서 La과 Ce, Nd와 Sm 는 10 이상의 분리계수 값을 보인 반면, Ce과 Pr, Pr과 Nd 사이의 분리계수는 0.5~2.2로 낮았다. 분리계수 개선을 위해 0.6 M Cyanex 572에 TBP를 첨가하였으나 상 분리 속도나 분리계수 개선 효과는 나타나지 않았다. 실험 결과를 고찰한 결과, La/(Pr, Nd, Sm) 그룹과 (Pr, Nd)/Sm 의 경우는 그룹 별 분리는 가능할 것으로 보이나, (La, Ce) 과 (Pr, Nd)의 그룹분리는 Ce와 Pr 사이의 분리계수가 낮아 어려울 것으로 사료된다.

적색 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 형광체 막을 졸-겔법으로 제조하고 형광체의 결정상 및 발광특성에 미치는 열처리 조건 및 Pr 첨가량의 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. CaTiO$_3$:Pr sol로부터 제조된 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 분말은 30~60nm 크기의 입자들이 0.3~0.5$mu extrm{m}$ 크기로 응집된 상태를 나타내었으며, 한편 sol을 borosilicate 기판 위에 4000rpm의 속도로 3회 스핀 코팅하고 열처리하였을 경우 두께 1.2$\mu\textrm{m}$의 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 박막이 형성되었다. CaTiO$_3$:Pr gel 분말을 여러 온도에서 열처리한 경우, $600^{\circ}C$ 이하에서는 비정질이지만, 온도가 증가하면서 erovskite 결정상이 생성되기 시작하여 90$0^{\circ}C$에서는 우수한 perovskite 결정상이 발달되었다. 반면, 박막의 경우에는 80$0^{\circ}C$의 열처리 온도에서는 결정성이 우수한 perovskite 상이 관찰되었으며 이러한 온도는 기존의 분말법의 소결온도에 비하여 300~40$0^{\circ}C$나 낮은 것이다. 0.2 mol% Pr이 첨가되고 90$0^{\circ}C$로 열처리된 분말시편은 최적의 Photoluminescence (PL) 특성을 나타낸 반면, 박막의 경우에는 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리된 시편이 최적의 PL 특성을 나타내었다. 제조된 CaTiO$_3$:Pr 박막에 대하여 Cathodoluminescence (CL) 분석을 행한 결과, 6100$\AA$에서 폭이 좁고 강도가 큰 스펙트럼을 나타냄으로서, 본 실험에서 제조된 박막이 FED(field emission display)등의 적색형광체로 사용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Two experiments were conducted to evaluate developmental gene expression of antimicrobial peptide PR-39 and effect of zinc oxide on gene regulation of PR-39 in piglets using semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. In experiment 1, fifteen female Tai-Hu pigs (a local breed in China) in five groups, each of three pigs at 1, 14, 28, 42 and 56 days of age were used to determine effect of age and weaning on mRNA expression of PR-39. In experiment 2, nine groups of pigs (total seventy-two female 36 days-age weanling Tai-Hu piglets) were assigned to three treatments (${ZnO}_0$, ${ZnO}_{100}$ and ${ZnO}_{3000}$). The feeding experimental period lasted 15 days. After feeding experiment, nine pigs with three animals in each treatment were chosen to determine the effect of ZnO on PR-39 mRNA expression of pigs. The results showed that PR-39 mRNA levels increased steadily in postnatal day 1-28 (preweaning), and weaning significantly decreased PR-39 mRNA expression of piglets (p<0.05). ${ZnO}_{3000}$ (3,000 mg zinc/kg diet) significantly increased PR-39 mRNA expression (p<0.05) when piglets were feed ${ZnO}_{3000}$ diet for 15 days. ${ZnO}_{100}$ (100 mg zinc/kg diet) also increased PR-39 gene expression, but the result was not statistically significant (p>0.05). The result was in accordance with the effect of ${ZnO}_{3000}$ and ${ZnO}_{100}$ on weight gain of piglets and prevention of diarrhea.

반도체 소자 집적도의 비약적인 발전으로 인하여 반도체 공정은 더욱 다층화 되어가고 있다. 이러한 다층화 공정에서는 필수적으로 여러 단계의 패턴을 형성하기 위하여 Photoresist(PR)를 이용한 식각 공정을 사용하게 된다. 이러한 식각 공정에서 다단계 식각 공정으로 인한 공정시간 증가와 식각 후 남은 잔여 PR residue는 초고집적화된 현 반도체 산업에서는 소자에 치명적인 문제를 발생시킨다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 PR strip 용액을 플라즈마에 의하여 액체 상태로 활성화하여 기존의 건식세정법과 습식세정법을 동시에 사용하여 PR을 효과적으로 제거하기 위한 방법을 연구하였다. 플라즈마에 의하여 약액을 활성화하기 위하여 먼저 플라즈마 약액활성화를 위한 장치를 simulation하여 실험 장치에서 균일한 gas흐름을 확인하였다. 이후 플라즈마의 세기를 0V에서 100V까지 증가시켜 약액을 활성화한 후 PR을 strip하여 각 플라즈마 세기에서의 식각률을 조사하였으며 80V에서 가장 빠른 식각률을 나타났다. 또한 0V와 80V의 Dilution에 대한 영향을 확인하였으며 약액을 Dilution 후에도 식각률은 더욱 향상됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 세정 시간의 단축은 여러 단계의 식각 공정 시간을 단축하여 반도체 공정에서 소자 생산을 위한 시간을 단축하게 된다. 또한 각 세정공정마다 증가한 세정 공정으로 인하여 세정액의 사용이 많아져 세정액 폐수로 인한 환경문제가 심각해지고 있다. 세정 약액 활성화 방법을 사용함으로써 세정액의 절감효과가 나타난다.

본 연구의 목적은 MBTI의 인식기능(S/N)과 판단기능(T/F)에 대한 문양역전 시각유발전위(PR-VEP)의 특성을 알아보고자 하는 것이다. 연구 대상자는 20세 이상의 성인남녀 136명을 대상으로 2013년 7월부터 8월까지 2개월 동안 PR-VEP와 MBTI검사를 실시하였다. PR-VEP검사는 32채널 뇌파측정기를 이용하여 O1, O2에서 측정하였고, MBTI검사는 Form-M 온라인검사방법을 이용하였다. 연구결과는 S지표 선호집단에서 PR-VEP의 N75와 P100 사이의 시간간격(Duration)이 5.49 ms 유의미하게 짧았고, F지표 선호집단에서 PR-VEP의 N75가 나타나기까지의 잠복기(Latency)가 O1에서 4.83 ms, O2에서 4.27 ms 유의미하게 짧았다. 이는 S유형과 F유형의 특징이 시각적 인지기능과 관계가 있다는 것을 의미하는 것으로, MBTI의 인식기능/판단기능 각 지표에 대한 뇌과학적 해석을 더할 수 있다는 점이 본 연구가 갖는 의의이다.

The waste of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets was recycled using the method of dopingPrNd nanoparticles. The effect of PrNd nanoparticle doping on the magnetic properties of the regenerated magnets has been studied. As the content of the PrNd nanoparticles increases, the coercivity increases monotonically, whereas both the remanence and the maximum energy products reach the maximum values for 4 wt% PrNd doping. Microstructural observation reveals that the appropriate addition of PrNd nanoparticles improves the magnetic properties and refines the grain. Domain investigation shows that the self-pinning effect of the rare earth (Re)-rich phase is enhanced by PrNd nano-particle doping. Compared to the magnet with 4 wt% PrNd alloy prepared using the dual-alloy method, the regenerated magnet doped with the same number of PrNd nanoparticles exhibits better magnetic properties and a more homogeneous microstructure. Therefore, it is concluded that PrNd nanoparticle doping is an efficient method for recycling the leftover scraps of Nd-Fe-B magnets.

The objectives of this thesis are : first, to estimate the parameters and Pr[X < Y] in the Marshall and Olkin's Bivariate Exponential Distribution ; and secondly, to compare the Bayes estimators of Pr[X < Y] with maximum likelihood estimator of Pr[X < Y] in the Marshall and Olkin's Bivariate Exponential Distribution. Through the Monte Carlo Simulation, we observed that the Bayes estimators of Pr[X < Y] perform better than the maximum likelihood estimator of Pr[X < Y] and the Bayes estimator of Pr[X < Y] with gamma prior distribution performs better than with vague prior distribution with respect to bias and mean squared error in the Marshall and Olkin's Bivariate Exponential Distribution.

We report results of a comparative study of the normal-state and superconducting properties in the GdBa$_2$(Cu$_{2.9}$Al$_{0.1}$)O$_z$ system with substitutions by Pr for the Gd and Ba sites. It is observed that, fur both Pr-doped systems, the superconducting transition temperature(T$_c$) decreases almost linearly with the Pr-content, but Pr at Ba sites results in a faster T$_c$ drop than that of Pr at Gd sites. The thermoelectric power measurements indicate that there is a strong correlation between the T$_c$ and the room temperature value of thermoelectric power. The experimental results are discussed in connection with existing models.
