S. epidermidis cell was fractionated into cell wall, cell membrane and cytoplasm. The cell membrane adsorbed the most abundant $\textrm{Pb}_{2+}$ per unit dry weight of the three fractions tested. Adsorption behavior of $\textrm{Pb}_{2+}$ in lipid and protein, which are the main components of the cell membrane, indicated that phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol having phosphoryl group and gangliosides containing carboxyl groups adsorbed much more $\textrm{Pb}_{2+}$ than triglycerides lacking any chargeable functional groups. Protein purified from cell membrane adsorbed larger amount of $\textrm{Pb}_{2+}$ than total native cell membrane or cell membrane lipid.

KIER has been developing the anode-supported flat tubular solid oxide fuel cell unit bundle for the intermediate temperature($700{\sim}800^{\circ}C$) operation. Anode-supported flat tubular cells have Ni/YSZ cermet anode support, 8 moi.% $Y_2O_3$ stabilized $ZrO_2(YSZ)$ thin electrolyte, and cathode multi-layer composed of Sr-doped $LaSrMnO_3(LSM)$, LSM-YSZ composite, and $LaSrCoFeO_3(LSCF)$. The prepared anode-supported flat tubular cell was joined with ferritic stainless steel cap by induction brazing process. Current collection for the cathode was achieved by winding Ag wire and $La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}CoO_3(LSCo)$ paste, while current collection for the anode was achieved by using Ni wire and felt. For making stack, the prepared anode-supported flat tubular cells with effective electrode area of $90\;cm^2$ connected in series with 12 unit bundles, in which unit bundle consists of two cells connected in parallel. The performance of unit bundle in 3% humidified $H_2$ and air at $800^{\circ}C$ shows maximum power density of $0.39\;W/cm^2$ (@ 0.7V). Through these experiments, we obtained basic technology of the anode-supported flat tubular cell and established the proprietary concept of the anode-supported flat tubular cell unit bundle.

The sub-bitline (SBL) sensing voltage of a cell and total cell array can be measured by the method of SBL voltage evaluation method. The MOSAID tester can collect all SBL signals. The hierarchical bitline of unit cell array block is composed of the cell array of 2k rows and 128 columns, which is divided into 32 cell array sections. The unit cell array section is composed of the cell array of 64 rows and 128 columns. The average sensing voltage with 2Pr value of $5{\mu}C/cm^2$ and SBL capacitance of 40fF is about 700mV at 3.0V operation voltage. That is high compensation method for capacitor size degradation effect. Thus allowed minimum 2Pr value for high density Ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM) can move down to about less than $5{\mu}C/cm^2$.

Proper water management is crucial for the efficient operation of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell. Especially, for automotive applications, A novel water management that can avoid both membrane dry-out and flooding is a very important task to achieve good performance and efficiency of PEM fuel cells. The aim of this study is to investigate the liquid water behavior on the gas diffusion layer (GDL) surface and in the cathode flow channel of a PEM unit fuel cell under flooding conditions. For this purpose, a transparent unit fuel cell is devised and fabricated by modifying the conventional PEM fuel cell design. The results of water droplet behavior under flooding conditions are mainly presented. The water distributions in the cathode flow channels with cell operating voltage are also compared and analyzed. Through this work, it is expected that the data obtained from this fundamental study can be effectively used to establish the basic water management strategy in terms of water removal from the flow channels in a PEM fuel cell stack.

Purpose: Anemia is associated with poor treatment results for a variety of cancers. The effect of low hemoglobin levels on long-term outcomes after the treatment of patients with an anal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) remains unclear. For that reason, this study aimed to investigate the effect of anemia on treatment outcomes following chemoradiation for an anal SCC. Methods: This was a retrospective study of all patients who underwent curative treatment for an anal SCC between 2009 and 2015 at 2 trusts in the United Kingdom. Data were collated from prospectively collected cancer databases and were cross-checked with operating-room records and records in the hospitals' patient management systems. Results: We identified 103 patients with a median age of 63 years (range, 36-84 years). The median overall survival was 39 months (range, 9-90 months), and the disease-free survival was 36 months (range, 2-90 months). During the follow-up period, 16.5% patients died and 13.6% patients developed recurrence. Twenty-two people were anemic prior to treatment, with a female preponderance (20 of 22). No differences in disease-free survival (P = 0.74) and overall survival (P = 0.12) were noted between patients with anemia and those with normal hemoglobin levels. On regression the analysis, the combination of anemia, the presence of a defunctioning colostomy, lymph-node involvement and higher tumor stage correlated with poor overall survival. Conclusion: In this study, anemia did not influence disease-free survival or overall survival. We suggest that the interaction between anemia and survival is more complex than previously demonstrated and potentially reliant on other coexisting factors.

압전형 가속도 센서(AMP 내장형 PA-01)의 전원 NOISE 영향은 가속도 센서의 금속부 구조 및 내장된 임피이던스 변환기의 역할을 하는 내장 AMP의 차페성 저항등에 원인에 있었다. 이 전원 NOISE 영향을 저하시키기 위하여 가속도 센서부의 UNIT CELL과 HOUSING 본체와의 절연 저항을 600㏁ 이상 되게하여 절연성 향상 및 임피이던스 변환기의 차페로 인하여 전원 NOISE 영향을 1/200∼1/2000 정도로 감소시킬수 있었다. 이때 UNIT CELL과 HOUSING 본체와의 절연 처리오 NOISE차페효과로 1/20 정도로 줄일 수 있었으며, 내장 AMP 차페로는 1/10∼1/100의 노이즈 차페효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose a method for automatic generation of equivalent circuit for unit cell of LCDTV. In order to extract a circuit model, computer program generates electrical connectivity of resistors and capacitors from the layout through pattern analysis with electrode and port information. For combining two types of independent equivalent circuits, we propose a node insertion algorithm. As a consequence, we can generate an equivalent RC circuit without increasing the capacitive elements.

We report a fuel cell power supply unit for mobile phone which operates at room temperature and ambient pressure using liquid methanol and air. The unit consists of a direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) and a back-up battery connected parallely to the fuel cell. DMFC supplies half of the required power and the back-up battery supplies the other half during talk mode. In standby mode, DMFC covers $100\%$ of the required power and charges the back-up battery as well, Eight unit cells, each having $9 cm^2$ of active area, were connected in series in order to raise the output volotage to $2.5\~3.9V$, which is typical for most mobile phones.

Exergetic and thermoeconomic analysis were performed for a 200kW Phosphoric Acid Fuel Cell(PAFC) plant which offers many advantage for cogeneration in the aspect of high electrical efficiency and low emission. This analytical study was based on the data obtained by in-field measurement of PC25 fuel cell plant to find whether this system is viable economically. For 100% load condition, the electrical efficiency and the unit cost of electricity are about 45% and 0.032 $/kWh respectively, which turn out to be much better than those for the 1000kW gas turbine cogeneration plant. Further, at lower loads, the unit costs of electricity and hot water increase slightly and consequently more economic operation is possible at any loads.
