The organic acids (formic acid, acetic acid and propionic acid), phenol and benzopyrene in wood vinegar were determine by HPLC. An $Atlantis^{TM}dC_{18}$ column with a acetonitrile: 0.1% phosphoric acid (5: 95, organic acids), acetonitrile: water (10 : 90, phenol), 100% acetonitrile (benzopyrene) as a mobile phase was used. Retention time of acetic acid, formic acid, propionic acid, phenol and benzopyrene was 4.77, 3.73, 9.08, 30.97 and 6.10 min, respectively. The calibration curves of organic acids, phenol, benzopyrene were linear over the concentration range of $30{\sim}500,\;60{\sim}1000$, and $3{\sim}50\;{\mu}g/ml$ with correlation coefficient of above 0.999. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) of acetic acid, formic acid, propionic acid, phenol, and benzopyrene was 1.71 and 5.19, 1.11 and 3.35, 4.87 and 14.74, 6.45 and 19.55, 0.08 and $0.24\;{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. The coefficients of variation for intra- and inter-day assay were $0.21{\sim}4.14$ and $0.07{\sim}1.19%$, respectively and the precision was $95{\sim}115%$. From this study, we suggest that HPLC is suitable method for the determination of organics in wood vinegar and could be applied to quality control of wood vinegar.

Purpose: A nationwide outbreak of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MP) refractory to macrolide antibiotics occurred in Korea during 2011. Steroid therapy has been reported to be both efficacious and well tolerated in pediatric patients with refractory MP. We compared clinical features and laboratory characteristics between children with refractory MP requiring steroid treatment and those with macrolide-responsive MP and evaluated the risk factors associated with refractory MP. Methods: We investigated 203 children who were admitted to our institution with MP from June to November 2011. Refractory MP was defined by persistent fever over $38.3^{\circ}C$ with progressive pulmonary consolidation or pleural effusion despite administration of appropriate macrolide antibiotics for 5 days or longer after admission. Steroid therapy was initiated on the fifth day after admission for refractory cases. Results: There were 26 patients with refractory MP requiring steroid therapy. The mean duration of steroid therapy was 5.4 days and most of the patients were afebrile within 24 hours after initiation of steroid therapy. The prevalence of refractory MP was higher in patients with pleural effusion, lobar pneumonia affecting more than 2 lobes, higher levels of serum lactate dehydrogenase, increased oxygen requirements, and longer duration of hospitalization. Atopic sensitization and history of asthma were also associated with refractory MP after adjusting for age and gender. Conclusion: Children with refractory MP had more severe pneumonia. Atopic sensitization and history of asthma may be risk factors for refractory MP requiring steroid therapy in Korean children.

Recently, the synthesis of ordered macroporous materials has received much attention due to its potential use as photonic band gap materials.$^1$ In this study, we have used the three-dimensional (3D) latex array template impregnated with benzenesulfonic acid (BSA), which is capable of catalyzing the reaction using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as a precursor and distilled water. The polystyrene (PS) templates were reacted with TEOS in $scCO_2$ at 40 $^{\circ}C$ and at 80 bar. In the reactor, TEOS was filtrated into the PS particle lattice. After the reaction, porous silica materials were obtained by calcinations of the template. The stability test of the PS template in pure $CO_2$ was conducted before the main experiment. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images showed that the reaction in $scCO_2$ takes place only on the particle surface. This new method using $scCO_2$ has advantages over conventional sol-gel processes in its capability to control the fluid properties such as viscosity and interfacial tension. It has been found that the reaction in $scCO_2$ occurs only on the particle surface, making the proposed technique as more rapid and sustainable method of synthesizing inverse opal materials than conventional coating processes in the liquid phase and in the vapor phase.

To evaluate seasonal variation in fatty acid composition in broccoli, 12 commercial cultivars of broccoli were grown in spring and fall season at the field of NIHHS, and their floret, leaf and stem parts were used for the fatty acid composition analyses. Among 14 fatty acids detected in broccoli, linolenic, palmitic and linoleic acids were major fatty acids comprising more than 80% of total fatty acids in both the seasons and all the parts. Likewise, stearic and oleic acids were also present in considerable amount while remaining fatty acids; caproic, lauric, myristic, pentadecanoic, palmitoleic, heptadecanoic, arachidic, behenic and lignoceric acids showed their minor compositional ratio. Among the three parts, stem exhibited highest SFAs (49.681% in spring and 50.717% in fall season) compared to MUFA and PUFA, while highest compositional ratio of PUFAs were observed in leaves (62.588% in spring and 68.931% in fall season), which indicates leaves as a good source of health beneficial fatty acids. In contrast, floret part exhibited highest SFA (48.786%) and PUFA (57.518%) in spring and fall seasons, respectively. Major fatty acids; palmitic, linoleic and linolenic acid showed lowest cultivar dependent variation (below 10%) and leaf showed least variation in both the seasons compared to floret and stem. Our results suggest that all the fatty acids are significantly influenced by genotype of cultivars (C), plant parts (P) and growing seasons (S). Among the 14 fatty acids, myristic and palmitic acid showed highest positive or negative correlationship with oleic (r=$0.912^{**}$) and linolenic acid (r=-$0.933^{**}$), respectively. The most abundant fatty acid, linolenic acid, showed either negative or no correlation ship with other fatty acids while palmitic acid, a second major fatty acid, exhibited either positive or negative correlation ship.

본 논문은 전이 영역에서 퍼지 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용한 multi-level thresholding 방법을 제안한다. 대부분의 임계치 기반 영상 분할은 영상의 히스토 그램 분포를 기반으로 임계치를 결정한다. 그러므로 많은 처리시간과 기억공간을 요구할 뿐만 아니라 복잡하고 무분별한 히스토 그램 분포를 가지는 실영상에서의 임계치 결정에는 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 영상의 대표적인 성분들로 구성된 전이 영역을 추출한 후 퍼지 클러스터링 알고리즘에 의해 최적의 임계치를 결정한다. 전이 영역을 추출하기 위해 이용되는 지역적 엔트로피는 잡음에 강건하며 영상에 내재된 정보를 잘 표현한다는 특성을 가진다. 그리고 퍼지 클러스터링 알고리즘은 복잡하고 무분별한 분포의 실영상에 대해서도 정확히 임계치를 설정할 수 있으며 multi-level thresholding으로 쉽게 확장이 가능하다. 다양한 실영상을 대상으로 실험한 결과, 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법보다 향상된 성능을 가짐을 보였다.

[서론] Pure Ti 및 Ti합금의 양극산화법에 의해 만들 수 있는 자기조직화된 나노튜브피막은 광촉매, 태양전지 등 다양한 분야에서 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 양극산화법에 의해 생성되는 산화피막층의 성장거동에 대해서 지금까지 용액의 pH, 온도 및 인가전압 등 양극산화조건의 영향에 대해 많은 연구가 보고 되었다. 하지만, 양극산화에 사용되는 기판의 특성에 대해서는 많은 연구가 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 pure Ti 및 Ti-Ni합금에 양극산화법에 의해 생성하는 나노튜브 피막층의 성장거동에 대해 기판의 특성(Ni농도 변화 및 phase변화)이 피막층의 형태 및 성장거동에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사 하였다. [실험방법] Sample은 pure Ti 및 Ti-xNi(x=49.0, 51.1, 52.2, 52.5 at.%)를 이용하였다. Ti-Ni합금은 아크용해로 제작 후 $1000^{\circ}C$ 에서 24시간 균질화 처리 후 20% 냉간압연을 하였다. 합금의 조성 및 결정구조 분석은 EPMA 및 XRD를 통해 조사 하였고, 양극산화는 미량의 물 및 불화암모늄을 포함한 에틸렌글리콜 용액에서 20, 35, 50V 20분간 실시하였다. 양극산화법에 의해 형성한 산화피막층은 FE-SEM 및 TEM을 통해 관찰 하였다. [결론] Pure Ti의 경우 모든 조건에서 나노튜브형태의 산화막이 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 하지만, Ti-Ni 합금의 경우 20V, 35V에서는 sponge 형태의 산화막이 형성되고, 50V에서만 나노튜브형태의 산화막이 형성 되었다. 또한, 모든 시편에서 양극산화 시간이 증가함에 따라 나노튜브형태의 산화막은 sponge 형태로 구조적 변화가 일어나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고, 기판 Ni농도가 증가 함에 따라 형성되는 산화막의 형태 변화는 가속화 되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 양극산화 초기 Ti의 우선적 산화에 의해 Ti과잉의 나노튜브층이 생성되고, 동시에 산화막과 합금계면에 Ni과잉층이 형성되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 산화막과 합금계면에 생성된 Ni과잉층에 의해 양극산화 시간이 증가함에 따라 sponge형태의 산화막이 생성되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

ZnO seed layer were deposited on quartz substrate by sol-gel method and prism-like Al-doped ZnO nanorods (AZO nanorods) were grown on ZnO seed layer by hydrothermal method with various Al concentration ranging from 0 to 2.0 at.%. Structural and optical properties of the AZO nanorods were investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL). The diameter of the AZO nanorods was smaller than undoped ZnO nanorods and its diameter of the AZO nanorods decreased with increasing Al concentration. In XRD spectrum, it was observed that stress and full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the AZO nanorods decreased and the 'c' lattice constant increased as the Al concentration increased. From undoped ZnO nanorods, it was observed that the green-red emission peak of deep-level emission (DLE) in PL spectra. However, after Al doping, not only a broad green emission peak but also a blue emission peak of DLE were observed.

Reset-first resistive switching mechanism based on reduction reaction in HfO2-x with oxygen drift-diffusion was studied. we first report that the indirect evidence of local filamentary conductive path formation in bulk HfO2 film with local TiOx region at Ti top electrode formed during forming process and presence of anion-migration at interface between electrode and HfO2 during resistive switching through high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron disperse x-ray (EDX), and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) mapping. Based on forming process mechanism, we expected that redox reaction from Ti/HfO2 to TiOx/HfO2-x was responsible for an increase of initial current with increasing the post-annealing process. First-reset resistive switching in above $350^{\circ}C$ annealed Ti/HfO2 film was exhibited and the redox phenomenon from Ti/HfO2 to TiOx/HfO2-x was observed with high angle annular dark field (HAADF) - scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), EDX and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Therefore, we demonstrated that the migration of oxygen ions at interface region under external electrical bias contributed to bipolar resistive switching behavior.
