Three kinds of prenylated flavonols, icariside I, icariside II, and icaritin, were isolated from an icariin hydrolysate and their effects on melanogenesis evaluated based on mushroom tyrosinase inhibition and quantifying the melanin contents in melanocytes. Although none of the compounds had an effect on tyrosinase activity, icariside II and icaritin both effectively inhibited the melanin contents with an $IC_{50}$ of 10.53 and $11.13{\mu}M$, respectively. Whereas icariside II was obtained from a reaction with ${\beta}$-glucosidase and cellulase, the icariin was not completely converted into icariside II. Thus, for the high-purity production of icariside II, the reaction was optimized using the response surface methodology, where an enzyme concentration of 5.0mg/ml, pH 7, $37.5^{\circ}C$, and 8 h reaction time were selected as the central conditions for the central composite design (CCD) for the enzymatic hydrolysis of icariin into icariside II using cellulase. Empirical models were developed to describe the relationships between the operating factors and the response (icariside II yield). A statistical analysis indicated that all four factors had a significant effect (p<0.01) on the icariside II production. The coefficient of determination $(R^2)$ was good for the model (0.9853), and the optimum production conditions for icariside II was an enzyme concentration of 7.5mg/ml, pH 5, $50^{\circ}C$, and 12 h reaction time. A good agreement between the predicted and experimental data under the designed optimal conditions confirmed the usefulness of the model. A laboratory pilot scale was also successful.

Glucose-아미노산(Lys, Gly, His, Arg)모델계 반응을 통해 생성된 Maillard반응생성물과 비투석성 melanoidin의 NDMA생성억제능에 대한 영향을 검토하였는데 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. Maillard반응생성물과 비투석성 melanoidin의 모든 시료에서 NDMA생성억제능이 나타났으며, 환원능을 소멸시키고 난 후의 NDMA생성억제능은 환원능이 소실되기 이전보다 1/2이하로 감소하여 이들 시료에 존재하는 환원능이 NDMA생성억제에 있어서 주요 인자로 나타났다. 2. Melanoidin과 ascorbic acid를 동량 첨가하였을 때, NDMA생성억제능은 ascorbic acid를 동량 첨가하였을 때, NDMA생성억제능은 ascorbic acid와 비슷한 경향을 나타내어 비투석성 melanoidin의 NDMA생성억제능이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 3. Maillard반응생성물에 의한 NDMA생성억제작용은 Maillard반응생성물에 존재하는 비투석성 melanoidin이 크게 관여하고 이들 억제작용에는 Maillard반응생성물의 환원능이 크게 관여 하는 것으로 나타났다.

Global fitting functions for Fe-selective chlorination in ilmenite($FeTiO_2$) and successive chlorination of beneficiated $TiO_2$ are proposed and validated based on a comparison with experimental data collected from the literature. The Fe-selective chlorination reaction is expressed by the unreacted shrinking core model, which covers the diffusion-controlling step of chlorinated Fe gas that escapes through porous materials of beneficiated $TiO_2$ formed by Fe-selective chlorination, and the chemical reaction-controlling step of the surface reaction of unreacted solid ilmenite. The fitting function is applied for both chemical controlling steps of the unreacted shrinking core model. The validation shows that our fitting function is quite effective to fit with experimental data by minimum and maximum values of determination coefficients of $R^2$ as low as 0.9698 and 0.9988, respectively, for operating parameters such as temperature, $Cl_2$ pressure, carbon ratio and particle size that change comprehensively. The global fitting functions proposed in this study are expressed simply as exponential functions of chlorination rate(X) vs. time(t), and each of them are validated by a single equation for various reaction conditions. There is therefore a certain practical merit for the optimal process design and performance analysis for field engineers of chlorination reactions of ilmenite and $TiO_2$.

폐자동차 범퍼 파쇄물 재활용을 위하여 색채선별법을 도입하였다. 색채선별법은 기존의 비중, 입도 차이에 의한 선별이 어려운 물질을 색상 차이를 이용한 카메라와 영상 분석기법으로 분리하는 선별법이다. 본 연구에서는 반응표면법 중 BBD (Box-Behnken Design)를 적용하여 실험을 계획하고 최적 조건을 도출하였다. 색채민감도, 피드투입량 및 입자크기의 영향을 분석하였으며, 회귀분석과 통계적인 방법에 기초하여 2차 반응 모델을 획득하였다. $R^2$ 및 p-value는 각각 99.56%, < 0.001로 타당하였으며, 추정된 최적조건은 색채민감도 32%, 피드투입 200 kg/h, 입자크기 33 mm 조건에서 94.1%의 회수율이 나올 것으로 예측하였다. 실제 실험을 통한 회수율은 93.8%로 나타나 해당 모델이 적절함을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 상용 니켈-알루미나 촉매를 이용한 메탄가스-수증기 개질반응에서의 고유반응속도 상수를 결정하였다. 반응메커니즘을 반영하기 위해 Langmuir-Hinshelwood chemisorption 이론에 기반한 반응속도식을 사용하였고 반응온도($630{\sim}750^{\circ}C$) 및 반응물의 분압(S/C ratio = 2.7~3.5)을 실험변수로 설정하였다. 실험을 통해 얻어진 데이터를 기반으로 효율적인 최적화 알고리즘을 이용하여 최적 고유반응속도상수들을 결정하였다. 최종적으로 제안된 이 수학적 반응 모델은 촉매반응기의 설계 및 운전조건 최적화에 활용 가능하다.

탄산화는 지하구조물과 같이 이산화탄소의 농도가 높고 강우로부터 보호되는 콘크리트 구조물에 매우 심각한 열화현상이다. 탄산화 깊이 및 수화물의 변화를 평가하기 위해 많은 연구가 진행되고 있으나 해석모델의 복잡성, 이산화탄소 확산계수 모델링 등의 어려움으로 인해 실제 탄산화 거동을 제한적으로 모사하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 탄산화 모델링 (Ducom)에 대하여 확산계수 모델링, 공극률 감소 모델, 이산화탄소의 장기반응률 등을 개선하여 개선된 탄산화 모델을 제시하였다. 검증을 위하여 온도변화를 고려한 촉진탄산화 시험. 공극률 평가 시험 (수은압입법)을 수행하였으며, 탄산화 깊이를 개선되기 전/후의 모델과 비교하였다. 또한 수산화칼슘의 중량변화와 실태조사결과를 이용하여 낮은 이산화탄소에 노출된 콘크리트 구조물의 탄산화 깊이를 제안된 모델과 비교하였다. 제안된 모델은 확산계수 감소성, 공극률 감소성을 적절하게 반영하여 기존의 모델에 비해 합리적인 결과 (수산화칼슘 소모량, 탄산화 깊이)를 나타내었다.

By depicting the transfer of heat and combustion reaction to take place within thin gas layers close to the propellant surface burning in a steady-state fashion, a mathematical equation has been deduced to describe the burning rate of solid propellant as a function of initial grain temperature and chamber pressure. It has been also assumed that chemical reaction could take place in premixing-diffusing zone but were carried out mainly in the reaction-flame zone. All these phenomena taken place in each zone of combustion have been assumed to be steady-state. In the present investigation, the equation, γ=$\kappa$$.$(1/R(T(sub)i+C))(sup)n$.$exp(-E(sub)a/R(T(sub)i+C))(P/z) is being presented and it is compared with experimental data. The proposed model has been tested and evaluated vis-a-vis strand burner data for three different propellants based on CTPB, and it has been found that the deviation of the computed burning rates from the measured rates ranged up to 2%.

This paper deals with application of a non-linear continuum model for reinforced concrete affected by alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR) to analysis of some nuclear structures. The macroscopic behaviour of the material affected by AAR is described by incorporating a homogenization/averaging procedure. The formulation addresses the main stages of the deformation process, i.e., a homogeneous deformation mode as well as that involving localized deformation, associated with formation of macrocracks. The formulation is applied to examine the mechanical behaviour of some reinforced concrete structures in nuclear power facilities located in Quebec (Canada). First, a containment structure is analyzed subjected to 45 years of continuing AAR. Later, an inelastic analysis is carried out for the spent fuel pool taking into account the interaction with the adjacent jointed rock mass foundation. In the latter case, the structure is said to be subjected to continuing AAR that is followed by a seismic event.

Materials currently used as an injectable bulking agent in the dermatologic and urologic fields revealed several drawbacks such as particles migration, inflammatory reaction, allergic reaction, rapid volume shrinkage, and necessity of a donor site. In this study, we have developed injectable biomaterial comprising poly (DL- lactide-co-glycolide)(PLGA) and hyaluronic acid gel to overcome these problems. PLGA is a biocompatible synthetic material and hyaluronic acid is a common substance found in living organisms. We examined the feasibility of injection through needle and tested biocompatibility in animal model. After transplantation, injected sites and distant organs were examined histologically to verify a new tissue formation, inflammation, and particles migrations. Injected volume was maintained approximately 80 percent for 2 months. Results demonstrated that the developed material was injectable through various gauges of needles and induced a new bulking tissue formation without serious inflammatory reaction.
