DA-5018, a recently synthesized capsaicin analog, appears to possess potent analgesic activity when administered topically. The objective of this study is to test the feasibility of the topical administration of this compound. Specifically, our goal was to identify vehicle system that permit a reasonable transdermal permeation of the compound in mice. Among the vehicles examined, isopropyl myristate (IPM) showed the largest in vitro permeability across the intact skin (83.6 ${\pm}$ 5.42${\mu}$l/$\textrm{cm}^2$/h ). However, due to the limited solubility of DA-5018 in IPM (0.53 mg/ml), the maximal flux from the IPM medium remained at only 44.3 ${\pm}2.87{\mu}$g/$\textrm{cm}^2$/hr. In order to increase the flux, addition of better solvents for DA-5018 was attempted, under the assumption that flux is the result of both solubility and permeability. Ethoxydiglycol (EG) and oleic acid (OA) were selected as examples of food solvents. The addition of IC or OA to IPM at a 1:1 volume ratio resulted in a comparable increase in the solubility of the compound (i.e., to 61.1 and 50.2 mg/ml for EG and OA, respectively). However, the addition of EG at a 1:1 volume ratio, for example, increased the flux 6.3 fold (i.e., $279{\mu}$g/$\textrm{cm}^2$/hr), while OA, at a 1:1 volume ratio, decreased the flux 5 fold (i.e., $9.26{\mu}$g/$\textrm{cm}^2$//hr). The mechanism of this discrepancy between EG and OA was investigated by measuring the permeabilty of DA-5018 across the stratum corneum-removed skin of the mouse, under the hypothesis that the viable skin layer may serve as a barrier for the permeation of lipophilic substances such as DA 5018. The permeability of DA-5018, from the medium of EG or OA, across the viable skin differed greatly for EG ($0.41{\mu}$l/$\textrm{cm}^2$/hr) and OA ($0.086{\mu}$l/$\textrm{cm}^2$/hr), suggesting that a higher permeability across the viable skin layer is needed for the second solvents. The maximum flux across the intact skin was achieved for DA-5018 when EG was added to IPM at a 1:1 volume ratio. Thus, the use of a binary system appears to be the best approach for realizing the transdermal delivery of DA-5018 at a reasonable rate.

본 연구에서는 염생식물의 한 종인 순비기나무의 추출 분획물 및 화합을 이용하여 항발암성 및 생체방어 물질로서의 유용성을 검토하고자 4종의 인체 암세포(HT1080, AGS, MCF-7 및 HT-29)에 대한 증식억제 효과를 검토하였다. 추출물에 대한 암세포 증식억제능 측정 결과, 10, 50 및 $100\;{\mu}g/mL$의 시료 처리 농도에서 농도 의존적으로 암세포의 생존율이 감소하는 경향을 확인하였으며, 모든 세포주에 대하여 methanol 추출물 보다 methylene chloride 추출물이 뛰어난 효과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 물질의 극성도에 따른 암세포 증식억제능을 확인하고자 추출물을 순차적으로 용매 분획하여 $H_2O$, n-BuOH, 85% aq. MeOH 및 n-hexane의 네 가지 분획층을 얻었으며, 추출물과 동일한 조건하에서 암세포 증식억제 효과를 재검토하였다. 그 결과, 비교적 극성이 덜한 85% aq. MeOH 분획층에서 우수한 암세포 증식억제능이 확인되었다. $100\;{\mu}g/mL$의 농도에서 85% aq. MeOH 분획층의 시료를 처리한 결과 HT1080, AGS, MCF-7 및 HT-29 세포는 각각 93.8, 91.6, 90.9% 그리고 82.7%의 강력한 억제 효과를 나타내었으며, 낮은 농도의 시료($10\;{\mu}g/mL$)를 처리한 결과에서도 HT1080과 AGS 세포에서 주목할 만한 억제효과를 보여 주었다. 생리활성 결과를 바탕으로 85% aq. MeOH 분획층의 분리를 통해 1종의 화합물을 분리할 수 있었으며, artemetin으로 알려진 화합물로 확인되었다. 분리된 화합물의 암세포 증식억제 효과를 확인해 본 결과 HT1080 세포에 선택적으로 효과를 보임을 확인하였으며, 그 효과는 항암제인 doxorubicin에 상응하는 결과였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 염생식물 순비기나무의 각종 인체 암세포에 대한 높은 증식억제 효과와 함께 암예방을 위한 기능성 소재로서의 개발 가능성이 확인되었다. 추후 순비기나무의 85% aq. MeOH 분획층 및 분리된 화합물에 대한 집중적인 연구를 통해 새로운 생리활성물질의 개발이 기대되어진다.

시멘트 콘크리트 포장은 시공초기의 품질관리가 포장의 장기공용성에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 시공초기에 발생되는 문제점을 최소화하기 위한 다양한 연구가 국내외에서 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 시멘트 콘크리트의 품질관리에서 양생은 중요한 사항이며, 포장용 시멘트 콘크리트에서도 양생시에 양생제를 사용하여 슬래브 표면에 불투수 막을 형성하여 수분증발을 방지하는 피막양생 (membrane curing)을 많이 사용하고 있다. 양생제의 역할은 콘크리트 표면의 수분증발억제에 있다. 국내에서 사용되고 있는 양생제는 시공품질관리 측면에서 살포량이 적정한지에 대한의문이 계속 제기되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 시멘트 콘크리트 포장 시공시 살포되는 양생제의 양을 조정하여 다양한 살포량에 따른 증발량 관측을 통해 양생제 살포량과 수분증발량 변화와의 상관관계를 제시하였다. 이를 위해 2002년과 2003년 여름철에 고속도로 시공현장에서 4회에 걸쳐 다양한 양생제 살포량$(0에 따른 증발량 콘크리트 포장의 온도변화, 콘크리트 표면의 강도발현속도(초음파 전달속도) 등을 측정하였다. 본 연구에서 얻은 결론은 현재 국내 시공현장에서의 양생제 살포량은 약 $160ml/m^2$으로 나타났고, 수분증발은 억제하고 적정한 보습효과를 얻기 위한 최적 양생제 살포량은 약 $400ml/m^2$인 것으로 분석되었다. 강도발현속도 시험결과 양생제의 살포량의 변화가 장기강도에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 판단되었다.

The authors studied the morphological distinctions of each of the epidermal layers and the time of appearance of the keratohyalin granules and tonofilaments by the processing of development. The skins were obtained from fetal rats at the age of 14th, 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th day of gestation, of 1st and 3rd day of neonatal life and of 4th week after birth. The specimens were staind with uranyl acetate and lead citrate. The results obtained were as follows. 1. On the 16th-gestation day, the intermediate layer which contained numerous ${\alpha}-and\;{\beta}$-glycogen particles was appeared, and hemidesmosomes and desmosome were observed as well. 2. Tonofilaments were first observed on the 17th gestation day. 3. Above-mentioned intermediate layer was differentiated into the granular layer and the spinous layer on the 18th-gestation day. Keratohyaline granules were appeared in association with the ribosomes and the tonofilaments and the compound granules were lipoid granules which were surrounded by ribosomes at the periphery. 4. Ultimately, keratinization began to take place from the 20th-gestation day. At the age of 4th week, the thickeness of epidermis and the amount of keratohyaline granule and tonofibrils were decreased. It is consequently suggested that in the differentiation process of the rat epidermis, keratinization begins after formation of hemidesmosomes and desmosomes, from which the tonofilaments are formed and after keratohyaline granules are formed. Therefore appearance of the keratohyaline granules and formation of the tonofilament appears to have a close relations with the keratinization process of the rat epidermis.

Film of new Ti-15Zr-5Nb alloy formed during galvanic anodizing in orthophosphoric acid solution was characterized by optical microscope, scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Raman micro-spectroscopy. Its anticorrosive properties were determined by electrochemical techniques. The film had a layer with nanotube-like porosity with diameters in 500-1000 nm range. The nano layer contained significant amounts of P and O as well as alloying element. Additionally, Raman micro-spectroscopy identified oxygen as oxygen ion in $TiO_2$ anatase and phosphorous as $P_2O_7{^{4-}}$ ion in phosphotitanate compound. All potentiodynamic polarization curves in artificial Carter-Brugirard saliva with pH values (pH= 3.96, 7.84, and 9.11) depending on the addition of 0.05M NaF revealed nobler behavior of anodized alloy and higher polarization resistance indicating the film is thicker and more compact nanolayer. Lower corrosion rates of the anodized alloy reduced toxicity due to less released ions into saliva. Bigger curvature radii in Nyquist plot and higher phase angle in Bode plot for the anodized alloy ascertain a thicker, more protective, insulating nanolayer existing on the anodized alloy. Additionally, ESI results indicate anodized film consists of an inner, compact, barrier, layer and an outer, less protective, porous layer.

Until now, design of Earth Retaining is practiced by 2nd dimensional analysis for convenience of analysis and time saving. However, the construction field is 3rd dimension, in this study, practised the 3rd dimensional analysis which can reflect the field condition more exactly the scope of earth retaining wall, and researched about the effective and economical way of design, compared and reviewed with the results, by practising both the 2nd and 3rd dimensional analysis. existing 2nd dimension. the depth of excavation, depth of embedded and soil condition. As result, under the whole conditions, more displacement came to appear to the value as result of 3rd dimensional analysis more than the result of 2nd dimensional analysis. Accordingly, the displacement by the 2nd dimension analysis is underestimated. Moreover, results of 2nd and 3rd dimensional analysis, there is no difference at displacement, when the depth of embedded is 0.5H, 1.0H and 1.5H, but Displacement of 1.5H is smaller than 0.5H, 1.0H. That is, the bigger the depth of embedded becomes, the displacement of Earth Retaining Wall appeared smaller. The displacement of earth retaining wall according to depth of excavation appeared bigger, when the depth of excavation is increased. In the meantime, when the soil condition is different, in the 2nd dimensional analysis, the displacement appeared biggest, in case of the clay layer, but in the 3rd dimensional analysis, in the beginning of excavating, the displacement of earth retaining wall appeared bigger in case of clay layer, but as excavating is in progress, the displacement of both compound soil layer and sand layer appeared big.

The strain, surface and inerfacial energies of III-V ternary systems were calculated for three kinds of structure modes: the Frank-van der Merwe (FM) mode, the Stranski-Krastanov (SK) mode an the Volmer-Wever (VW) mode. The free energy for each mode was estimated as functions of the thickness and composition or lattice misfit. Through comparison of the free energy of each mode, it was found that the thickness-composition phase diagrams of III-V ternary systems can be determined only by considering the balance of the free energy and three kinds of structure modes appear in the phase diagrams. The SK mode appears only when the lattice misfit is large and/or the lattice layer is thick. The most stable structure of the SK mode is a cluster with four lattice layers or minimum thickness on a wetting layer of increasing lattice layers. The VW mode appears when the lattice misfit is large and the lattice layer is thin and only in the InPSb/InP and GaPSb/GaP systems which have the largest lattice misfit of III-V ternary systems. The stable region of the SK mode in the GaPSb/GaP and InPSb/InP phase diagrams is largest of all because the composition dependence of the strain energy of these systems is stronger than that of the other systems. The critical number of lattice layers below which tow-dimensional (2D) layers precede the three-dimensional (3D) nucleation in the SK mode at x=1.0 depnds on the lattice misfit.

Since Pb-free solder alloys have been used extensively in microelectronic packaging industry, the interaction between UBM (Under Bump Metallurgy) and solder is a critical issue because IMC (Intermetallic Compound) at the interface is critical for the adhesion of mechanical and the electrical contact for flip chip bonding. IMC growth must be fast during the reflow process to form stable IMC. Too fast IMC growth, however, is undesirable because it causes the dewetting of UBM and the unstable mechanical stability of thick IMC. UP to now. Ni and Cu are the most popular UBMs because electroplating is lower cost process than thin film deposition in vacuum for Al/Ni(V)/Cu or phased Cr-Cu. The consumption rate and the growth rate of IMC on Ni are lower than those of Cu. In contrast, the wetting of solder bumps on Cu is better than Ni. In addition, the residual stress of Cu is lower than that of Ni. Therefore, the alloy of Cu and Ni could be used as optimum UBM with both advantages of Ni and Cu. In this paper, the interfacial reactions of Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu solder on Ni-xCu alloy UBMs were investigated. The UBMs of Ni-Cu alloy were made on Si wafer. Thin Cr film and Cu film were used as adhesion layer and electroplating seed layer, respectively. And then, the solderable layer, Ni-Cu alloy, was deposited on the seed layer by electroplating. The UBM consumption rate and intermetallic growth on Ni-Cu alloy were studied as a function of time and Cu contents. And the IMCs between solder and UBM were analyzed with SEM, EDS, and TEM.

However, the construction field is 3 dimension, in this study, practised the 3 dimensional analysis which can reflect the field condition more exactly the scope of earth retaining wall, and researched about the effective and economical way of design, compared and reviewed with the results, by practising both the 2 and 3 dimensional analysis. existing 2 dimension. the depth of excavation, depth of embedded and soil condition.
