Nanoaggregates of triple hydrophilic block copolymers comprised of poly(ethylene oxide), poly(sodium 2-acrylamido)-2-methylpropanesulfonate), and poly(methacrylic acid) (PEO-PAMPS-PMAA) and the cationic surfactant, dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC) have been fabricated. The formation of $^{\circ}^{\circ}$the nanoaggregates is based on electrostatic interaction of sulfonate and carboxylate groups of PAMPS and PMAA blocks with the cationic surfactant, which results in insolubilization of these blocks. The formation of micelle is observed by dynamic light scattering measurements. Binding of DTAC to the anionic blocks of PEO-PAMPS-PMAA is confirmed by electrophoresis measurements.

Well difined sulfonated styrene and n-butyl acrylate (nBA) block copolymers were synthesized by CuBr catalyzed living radical polymerization followed by acification by thermolysis. Neopentyl styrene sulfonate (NSS) was polymerized with PnBA macroinitator precursor ($M_{n}=19,500,\;PDI\;<\;1.09$) and CuBr catalyst with N,N,N',N' -pentamethylethyleneamine (PMDETA) to give nBA-NSS block copolymer with narrow polydispersity ($M_{n}=29,900,\;PDI\;<\;1.15$). PNSS segments in the block copolymer were then acidified by thermolysis at $150^{\circ}C$ resulting in polystyrene segments with 100 % sulfonic acid groups.

The present article describes a novel method of preparing the sulfonated polysulfone-based PEMs for DMFC, which are excellent in film quality, proton conductivity, methanol impermeability and mechanical properties. No depression in film quality or difficulty in film preparation is observed, even though sulfonated group of the PEMs are kept as high as 70 mol %. Allyl-terminated cooligo-PESs containing the organic sulfonate groups were solvent-cast into films and then thermally treated for cross-linking. Cross-linked sulfonated polysulfone-based PEMs gave unprecedented reduction of methanol cross-over and high ionic conductivity through in-situ thermal polymerization and cross-linking of telechelic sulfonated sulfone oligomers during a membrane preparation.

From Oct. 2008 to Oct. 2009, 619 livestock products sold in Incheon were examined for melamine contamination. HPLC was used to detect the melamine concentration from various products. $C_{18}$ column $(3.9\times150mm,\;4{\mu}m)$ was applied with a phase composed of 10mM citric acid and 10mM sodium octane sulfonate : acetonitrile (in ratio 90:10) pumped isocratically at 1.0ml/min. Melamine was not detected from any of the products at the level of LOD 0.03mg/kg and LOQ 0.08mg/kg, suggesting that no melamine contamination was ascertained in livestock products in Incheon area. However, further tests should be done to detect other melamine analogues for the evaluation of toxicity and safety of melamine and cyanuric acid in the future.

We demonstrate a new approach to form gradient hole injection layer (HIL) in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Single spincoating of hole-injecting conducting polymer compositions with a perfluorinated ionomer results in gradient workfunction through the layer by self-organization, which lead to remarkably efficient single layer polymer light-emitting diodes (PLEDs) (${\sim}21$ cd/A). The device lifetime was significantly improved (${\sim50$ times) compared with the conventional hole injection layer, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy-thiophene)/polystyrene sulfonate. This solution processed HIL also produced dramatically enhanced luminous efficiency (${\sim}34$ cd/A) in vacuum- deposited green fluorescent OLEDs while the vacuum deposited HIL gave the luminous efficiency of ${\sim}23$ cd/A in the same device structure.

Electrophosphorescent devices with ionomer-type hole transport layers were investigated. On top of the 3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene:poly(4-styrene sulfonate) [PEDOT:PSS] structures, fluoropolymer interfacial layers (FPIs) with different side chain lengths were introduced. Both for the PEDOT:PSS/FPI (layered) and PEDOT:PSS (mixed) structures with soluble phosphorescent emitters, the short-side-chain FPIs showed higher efficiency. The difference in the electrical properties of the two FPIs for bipolar (light-emitting) devices was not clear, but the hole-only device clearly showed the favored hole injection at the PEDOT:PSS/FPI structure with a shorter side chain, a copolymer of tetrafluoroethylene and sulfonyl fluoride vinyl ether.

Nanocomposites of metal (gold and silver) nanoparticles and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were prepared with the assistance of various stabilizers for metals and MWNTs. Especially common surfactants such as poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), poly(sodium 4-styrene sulfonate) (PSS), and poly(diallyldimethylammonium) chloride (PDDA) were used for the sample preparation. Metal/MWNT nanocomposites were structurally characterized in by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), x-ray diffraction (XRD), UV/Vis spectroscopy. In addition, the electrical properties of the nanocomposites were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV).

In order to obtain a strain of producing lipase which has resistance against alkaline and detergent, a screening test was carried out. Among 500 strains isolated from soil samples, the strain J-19 was selected for this study. The composition of the optimum medium for the highest lipase production was 2.0% glycerin, 1.0% corn steep liquor, 2.0% yeast extract, 0.1% $MgSO_4$ $7H_2O$, 0.2% $K_2HPO_4$, 1.5% soybean oil and 0.1% LAS(linear alkylbenzene sulfonate) with initial pH value of 10.0 and 3-day cultivation at $25^{\circ}C$. The lipase activity of the strain J-19 under optimal condition was 3.3. units/ml, which was increased about 1.3-fold than that of basal medium.

Our previous report demonstrated that the rhp51$^＋$, a recA and RAD51 homolog of the fission yeast, encodes three transcripts of 1.9, 1.6 and 1.3 kb which have at least six polyadenylation sites. The 3'-end of the gene alone can direct the formation of multiple, discrete 3'ends of the transcripts. To identify the regulatory element required for the 3'-end formation of -rhp51$^＋$ deletion mapping analysis was performed. Northern blot analysis revealed that the 254-bp DNA fragment including 4 distinct poly (A) sites downstream from the Hindlll site, is crucial for normal 3'-end formation. Deletion of the 3'-terminal AU rich region caused appearance of read-through RNA, leading to enhancement of survival rate of the rhp51 deletion mutant in response to DNA damaging agent, methylmethane sulfonate (MMS). The results imply that the rhp51$^＋$ system may be useful for molecular analysis of the 3'-end formation of RNA in the fission yeast.

A new fluorescent derivatizing reagent was developed to be used in HPLC for the trace determination of primary and secondary amines. This new reagent, 1-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyrene-6-sulfonyl chloride, was synthesized by the chlorination of sodium 1-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyrene-6-sulfonate which was obtained from 1-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyrene after sulfonation. Ephedrine and norephedrine were derivatized quantitatively by this reagent. The optimum conditions for the derivatization such as pH, reagent concentration, reaction time and reaction temperature ware examined. The structures of derivatives were identified by IR, $^{1}$H-NMR and MS methods. The fluorescence properties and the stability of the derivatives were examined. The derivatives were separated on silica column with an isocratic elution using the mixture of n-hexane and ethylacetate and monitored by fluorescene detector. Linear calibration curves were obtained and detection limits in a 10 $\mu$l injection volume were 5 picomole for ephedrine and norephedrine.
