A new method for the simultaneous determination of heavy metal ions in cigarette material by microwave digestion and reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) has been developed. The cigarette material was digested by microwave digestion. Lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel and tin ions in the digested samples were pre-column derivatized with tetra-(2-chlorophenyl)-porphyrin ($T_2$-CPP) to form color chelates, which were then enriched by solid phase extraction with a $C_{18}$ cartridge. The chelates were separated on a Waters Xterra$^{TM}RP_{18}$ column by gradient elution with methanol (containing 0.05 mol/L pyrrolidine-aceticacid buffer salt, pH = 10.0) and acetone (containin0.05 mol/L pyrrolidine-acetic acid buffer salt, pH = 10.0)as mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.5mL/min and analyzed with a photodiode array detector from 350-600 nm. The detection limits of lead, cadmium, mercury, nickel and tin were 4,3,3,8 and 5 ng/L, respectively, in the original samples. This method was afforded good results.

The study reports on the design and performance of two air-filled and two partial ethanol-filled photonic crystal fiber (PCF) structures with a tetra core for supercontinuum generation. The PCFs are nonlinear with ultra-flattened zero dispersion. Holes with smaller areas are used to create a tetra-core PCF structure. Ethanol is filled in the holes of smaller area while the larger holes of cladding region are airfilled. Optical properties including dispersion, effective mode area, confinement loss, normalized frequency, and nonlinear coefficient of the designed PCF structures are investigated via full vector finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. A PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits significantly better results than a PCF structure with silica as wafer. However, both structures report dispersion at a telecommunication wavelength corresponding to 1.55 ㎛. Furthermore, the PCF structure with lead silicate as wafer exhibits a very high nonlinear coefficient corresponding to 1375 W^-1 km^-1 at the same wavelength. This scheme can be used for optical communication systems and in optical devices by exploiting the principle of nonlinearity.

The objective of this paper is to find out the most effective injection angle for the purpose of deicing through SC/Tetra, a commonly used CFD software. Nowadays, vehicles are developed giving priority to an improved interior which emphasizes a pleasant environment and thermal comfort without decreasing the basic performance. Clear visibility is one of the most important phenomenon. The primary factors which affect the efficiency of deicing are 3D geometry of Defrost Nozzle, the inlet velocity and temperature of the flow and the injection angle. However in this paper, all these parameters are optimized by changing the injection angle. A wide range of injection angle from 5 degree to 50 degree have been considered for analysis. A very good defrosting performance has been achieved with 45 degree injection angle which can satisfy the condition of NHTSA.

The MeOH extract of the bark of Paeonia moutan showed potent inhibitory effect on the mushroom tyrosinase activity in vitro. The activity-guided fractionation of t he MeOH extract resulted in the isolation of three active compounds. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic evidence as catechin, 1,2,3,6-tetra-O-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose and 1,2,3,4,6-penta-0-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose, respectively. Among them, the inhibitory activity by 1,2,3,6-tetra-galloyl-${\beta}$-D-glucose on mushroom tyrosinase was more potent $(IC_{50}=3.5\;{\mu}M)$ than that of kojic acid $(IC_{50}=8.7\;{\mu}M)$ ,but catechin enhanced the mushroom tyrosinase activity 50% in the concentration of 34.5M.

In the present work, the interaction of three water soluble porphyrins, tetra(p-trimethyle) ammonium phenyl porphyrin iodide (TAPP) as a cationic porphyrin, tetra sodium meso-tetrakis (p-sulphonato phenyle) porphyrin (TSPP) as an anionic porphyrin and manganese tetrakis (p-sulphonato phenyl) porphinato acetate (MnTSPP) as a metal porphyrin, with histone H₂B have been studied by isothermal titration microcalorimetry at 8 mM phosphate buffer, pH 6.8 and 27 °C. The values of binding constant, entropy, enthalpy and Gibbs free energy changes for binding of the first MnTSPP, and first and second TSPP and TAPP molecules were estimated from microcalorimetric data analysis. The results represent that the process is both entropy and enthalpy driven and histone induces self-aggregation of the porphyrins. The results indicate that both columbic and hydrophobic interactions act as self-aggregation driving forces for the formation of aggregates around histone.

연속슬립캐스팅 및 상압소결법으로 $Al_2$O$_3$/ZrO$_2$적층복합체를 제조하였으며, 적층복합체에서 ZrO$_2$층을 단사정, 정방정 및 입방정으로 각각 달리 적층하여 균열생성 및 전파 거동에 미치는 ZrO$_2$상의 영향을 고찰하였다. 균열 생성은 냉각시 $Al_2$O$_3$층과 ZrO$_2$층 간의 열팽창 계수의 차이에 의한 열적불일치응력이 가장 큰 요인으로 작용하였다. 적층체 내에 존재하는 균열은 tetra-ZrO$_2$의 경우 적층두께 조절로 가능하였으며, cubic-ZrO$_2$의 경우는 냉각속도 조절로 균열밀도로 크게 낮출 수 있었다. $Al_2$O$_3$/ZrO$_2$적층체를 구성하는 세가지 ZrO$_2$상(mono, tetra, cubic)들 중에서 cubic-ZrO$_2$가 포함된 적층체의 경우 $Al_2$O$_3$와 ZrO$_2$계면에 형성된 잔류압축응력으로 인한 균열굴절 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

The effect of Sodium Butyrate (NaBu) on the N-linked oligosaccharide structure of Erythropoietin (EPO) was investigated. Recombinant human EPO was produced by CHO cells grown in an $MEM{\alpha}$ medium with or without 5 mM NaBu, and purified from the culture supernatants using a heparin-sepharose affinity column and immunoaffinity column. The N-linked oligosaccharides were released enzymatically and isolated by paper chromatography. The isolated oligosaccharides were then labeled with a fluorescent dye, 2-aminobenzamide, and analyzed with MonoQ anion exchange chromatography and GlycosepN amide chromatography for the assignment of a GU (glucose unit) vague. A glycan analysis by HPLC showed that the most significant characteristic effect of NaBu was a reduction in the proportion of glycans with Sri-and tetrasialylated oligodaccharides from $21.30\%$ (tri-) and $14.86\%$ (tetra-) in the control cultures (without NaBu) to $8.72\%$ (tri-) and $1.25\%$ (tetra-) in the NaBu-treated cultures, respectively. It was also found that the proportion of asialo-glycan increased from $12.54\%\;to\;23.6\%$ when treated with NaBu.

We have investigated the slurry induced metallic contaminations of undoped and doped silicate oxides surface on CMP cleaning process. The metallic contaminations by CMP slurry were evaluated in four different oxide films, such as plasma enhanced tetra-ethyl-orthyo-silicate glass(PE-TEOS), O3 boro-phos-pho-silicate glass(O3-BPSG), PE-BPSG, and phospho-silicate glass(PSG). All films were polished with KOH-based slurry prior to entering the post-CMP cleaner. The Total X-Ray fluorescence(TXRF) measurements showed that all oxide surfaces are heavily contaminated by potassium and calcium during polishing which is due to a CMP slurry. The polished O3-BPSG films presented higher potassium and calcium contaminations compared to PE-TEOS because of a mobile ions gettering ability of phosphorus. For PSG oxides, the slurry induced mobile ion contamination increased with an increase of phosphorus contents. In addition, the polishing removal rate of PSG oxides had a linear relationship as a function of phosphorus contents.

The $NO_2$ gas-detection characteristics were investigated using the functional organic Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) film of Tetra-3-hexadecyl-sulphamoylcopperphthalocyanine(HDSM-CuPc). A surface pressure of 30mN/m was obtained as a proper one for a film deposition. A deposited film status was confirmed by electrical and optical methods such as UV/visible absorption spectra and current-voltage(I-V) characteristics. The $NO_2$ gas response experiments under 200ppm concentration show that there is not increment of electrical conductivity in room temperature and is identified by UV/visible absorption spectra. But There are some increments of electrical conductivity in $160^{\circ}C$.

Tetra(4-carboxyphenyl)porphine(TCPP) 흡착으로부터 그래핀 표면의 기능화에 대하여 방사광을 이용한 광전자 분광법으로 연구하였다. 최근 들어 그래핀을 이용한 소자개발에 있어서 그래핀의 우수한 전기적 특성을 저해하지 않으며 그 표면의 화학적 활성도를 개선하고자 하는 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 따라서 기능성 작용기를 가지고 있는 유기반도체 물질을 이용하여 그래핀 표면의 화학적 활성화를 촉진시킴과 동시에 보호층을 형성시키고자 하는 연구가 보고되고 있다. 그러나 일반적으로 그 유기분자들이 그래핀 표면에 흡착되었을 때 전하의 이동을 유도함으로서 원래 그래핀의 물리적 특성을 변화시킬 가능성을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 6H-SiC 표면 위에 두층으로 에피텍셜 성장된 그래핀에 TCPP 분자를 흡착시킴으로서 그래핀의 고유 특성을 거의 저해하지 않음과 동시에 기능성 작용기의 역할을 충실히 수행할 수 있음을 보여 주고 있다. 이는 valence band dispersion과 일함수 변화 측정으로 관찰할 수 있었다. 또한 TMA를 이용한 TCPP의 수산화 작용기의 반응 과정은 일반적인 실리콘 산화막에 적용했을 때 일어나는 화학적 반응 과정과 다른 메커니즘으로 진행됨을 관찰하였다.
