Complexes of thiocyanato(L)cobaloximes where L is urea, acetamide, semicrabazide and formamide were synthesized and characterized. The reaction of thiocyanato (L) cobaloximes (SCNCo$(DH)_2$(L)) with benzyl (aquo) cobaloxime $PhCH_2Co(DH)_2(OH_2)$ was found to produce a series of thiocyanato bridged dicobaloximes of a general formula of $PhCH_2Co(DH)_2SCNCo(DH_2)(L)$. Evidence for formulation as dicobaloximes containing thiocyanato ligand bridges was obtained from infrared data which show $20-45cm^{-1}$ increase in vCN upon formation of the dicobaloxime from the corresponding terminal thiocyanocobaloxime (SCNCo$(DH)_2$(L)). Further characterization of these two series was done on the basis of ($^1H$,$^{13}C$)NMR, LCMS and elemental analysis. Anti-microbial activity of thiocyanato(L)cobaloximes and thiocyanato bridged dicobaloximes were screened against E. Coli. The DNA-binding behaviors of both monomers and dimers were investigated by spectroscopic methods and viscosity measurements. The results indicated that the dimer complexes bind with calf-thymus DNA in an intercalative mode via the terminal benzyl ring into the base pairs of DNA. It was observed that the monomer complexes did not interact with DNA. Fluorescence spectra for the interaction between thiocyanato bridged dicobaloximes and DNA were also studied.

Malate dehydrogenase in the mosquito ovary after a blood meal, Aedes aegypti, was purified and characterized. MDH purification steps involved DEAE-Sepharose, S-Sepharose and Cibacron blue affinity chromatography. The purified MDH was 70,000 daltons in molecular weight and was a homodimer consisting of tow identical subunits. Optimal activity of purified MDH was obtained pH 9.0-9.2 in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and pH 9.8-10.2, in oxaloactate-malate reaction. With obtained pH 9.0-92 in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and pH 9.8-10.2, in oxaloactate-malate reaction. With malate as substrate, purified mitochondrial MDH (1.28$\times$${10}^{-4}$ M) had lower Km value than cytoplasmic MDH (8.92x${10}^{-3}$ M). MDH activity was inhibited by citrate, $\alpha$-ketoglutarate, and ATP. Inhibition of MDH activity by ATP and citrate was less in malate-oxaloacetate reaction and in oxaloacetate-malate reaction. MDH activity was completely inhibited by ATP in oxaloacetate-malate reaction and not inhibited by citrate in malate-oxaloacetate reaction. Temporal activity change of MDH is similar to that of isocitrate dehydrogenase in the ovary after blood feeding; their activities in the ovary began to rise at 18 hours after a blood meal, and reached at the maximal level at 48 hours.

Previously, we discovered a new MMP-2 isoform GA110, of which appearance in human follicular fluid(FF) and serum was increased by EDTA. The present study was conducted to investigate how GAI 10 can appear by EDTA. To examine possible involvement of protein disulfide isomerase(PDI), an enzyme responsible for the dimerization of protein via disulfide formation, effect of PDI inhibitor on the appearance of GA110 by EDTA was investigated. When PDI inhibitor added to FF before EDTA treatment, the gelatinolytic activity of GA110 was abolished in a concentration dependent manner. By contrast, the activity of 72 kDa gelatinase increased. However, the PDI inhibitor added to FF after EDTA treatment, the gelatinolytic activity of GA110 was unaffected. To find out the nature of the enzyme which converts 72 kDa gelatinase into GAI 10, chromatographic separation method of FF proteins was done. Using hydroxyapatite column, fractions rich in 72 kDa gelatinase were isolated and pooled. By using this pool as substrate for the 72 kDa converting enzyme, protein fractions containing the converting activity were obtained from chromatographic separation of FF onto glutathione sepharose fast flow column. When immunoblotting was performed on this enzymatically active protein fractions against polyclonal anti-PDI antibody, distinct immunoreactivity was observed, although appeared in smaller molecular weight region. Based on these observations, it is suggested that the appearance of GAI 10 in FF by EDTA treatment could be due to an activation of PDI-like enzyme, which dimerizes 72 kDa gelatinase into GAI 10 via the formation of disulfide bond between molecules.

부유부상 공정은 현재 신문고지와 사무용 고지의 탈묵을 통한 신문용지 및 화장지 제조 에 널리 사용되고 있는 고지재활용을 위한 핵심공정이다. 하지만 이들 공정은 갈수록 열악 해지는 국내 고지원료의 품질변화에 따라서 잉크 및 토너의 분리효율이 저하되고 있어 생산 되는 탈묵 펄프의 품질저하, 리젝트 발생량의 증대, 폐수 처리공정의 부하 증가 등 다양한 문제점을 발생시키고 있어 이에 대한 대책의 수립이 시급히 요청되고 있다. 현재와 같이 다양한 형태의 잉크 및 인쇄방식으로 인쇄된 많은 종류의 재활용지가 원료 로 투입되고 있는 경우 탈묵공정의 효율 향상을 위해서는 부유부상 공정에 대한 좀 더 체계 적이고 논리적인 접근이 필요하다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 먼저 고지 재활용 공정 의 핵심 단위공정인 부유부상 공정에 관련된 복잡한 문제점을 단순화하여 고상 및 액상의 표면화학적 특성을 평가하고, 이에 따른 부유부상 공정의 효율을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 부유부상 공정을 기초과학적 측면에서 구명하기 위해 마이크로 크리스탈린 셀룰로오스(Microcrystalline cellulose: MCC)를 모델 물질로 사용하였고, 친수성 의 표면 특 성을 나타내는 MCC의 표면 특성을 바꾸기 위하여 AKD(alkyl ketene dimer)로 처리비율을 달리하여 사이징 처리하였다. 부유부상 실험에 사용된 MCC는 친수성을 띠는 것과 소수성 을 부여한 것을 구별하고 그 비율을 백색도를 통해 측정하기 위하여 자체적으로 친수성을 가지는 MCC는 세척 견뢰도가 높은 검은색 염료로 염색하였다. 준비된 친수성과 소수성 M MCC의 혼합비율 별로 패드를 작성하여 백색도를 측정함으로써 검량선을 작성하였다. 또한 부유부상 시간에 따른 제거효율을 알아보기 위하여 부유부상 시간별로 각각의 리젝트율과 수율올 측정하고, 리젝트 시료로부터 패드를 제조하여 백색도를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 소수성 MCC의 소수화 정도에 따라서 리젝트율이 증가하였으며, 이를 통해 표 면에 소수성을 띠는 입자는 소수성이 강할수록 부유부상공정에서 제거율이 증가한다는 것을 확인하였다. 부유부상 처리한 MCC로 패드를 제조한 뒤 백색도를 비교한 결과에서도 이를 확인하였다. 한편 리젝트로 함께 제거된 MCC 내에 존재하는 친수성 MCC의 양은 극히 미 세하였다. 또한 부유부상를 실시하는 초기에 상당량의 리젝트가 발생함을 확인하였는데, 이 는 전체 부유부상을 통해 제거되는 양의 45-68%였다. 한편 부유부상이 진행됨에 따라서 리젝트 양의 증가폭이 둔화되는 경향을 나타내었다. 이러한 경향은 MCC의 소수성이 강할 수록 더욱 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 이를 통해 계 내로부터 소수성인 물질이 급속하게 제거됨을 알 수 있었으며 필요 이상의 부유부상 처리는 잉크제거 효율을 높일 수는 있으나 소모되는 시간에 비하여 비효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

Background: Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) has been widely used to prevent the massive blood loss during hepatic carcinoma. The influences of ANH on coagulation function are still controversy, especially in elderly patients. The study observed ANH effects on coagulation function and fibrinolysis in elderly patients undergoing the disease. Materials and Methods: Thirty elderly patients (aged 60-70 yr) with liver cancer (ASA I or II) taken hepatic carcinectomy from February 2007 to February 2008 were randomly divided into ANH group (n=15) and control group (n=15). After tracheal intubation, patients in ANH group and control group were infused with 6% hydroxyethyl starch (130/0.4) and Ringer's solution, respectively. Blood samples were drawn from patients in both groups at five different time points: before anesthesia induction (T1), 30 min after ANH (T2), 1 h after start of operation (T3), immediately after operation (T4), and 24 h after operation (T5). Then coagulation function, soluble fibrin monomer complex (SFMC), prothrombin fragment (F1+2), and platelet membrane glycoprotein (CD62P and activated GP IIb/GP IIIa) were measured. Results: The perioperative blood loss and allogeneic blood transfusion were recorded during the surgery. The perioperative blood loss was not significantly different between two groups (p>0.05), but the volume of allogeneic blood transfusion in ANH group was significantly less than in control group ($350.0{\pm}70.7$) mL vs. ($457.0{\pm}181.3$) mL (p<0.01). Compared with the data of T1, the prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) measured after T3 were significantly longer (p<0.05) in both groups, but within normal range. There were no significant changes of thrombin time (TT) and D-dimer between two groups at different time points (p>0.05). SFMC and F1+2 increased in both groups, but were not statistically significant. PAC-1-positive cells and CD62P expressions in patients of ANH group were significantly lower than those at T1 (p<0.05) and T2-T5 (p>0.05). Conclusions: ANH has no obvious impact on fibrinolysis and coagulation function in elderly patients undergoing resection of liver cancer. The study suggested that ANH is safe to use in elderly patients and it could reduce allogeneic blood transfusion.

New morpholinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines 2(X=O) and piperidinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines 3(X=C) to which morpholinyl or piperidinyl functional group were introduced at C-4 side chain of the 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazoline scaffold were synthesized to investigate the effect of NH hydrogen of 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazoline-4-acetanilide derivatives on the antifungal property against rice blast. Synthesized 30 compounds were screened against 6 kinds of typical plant fungi. Treatment of ketene dimer with chlorine followed by the reaction of morphorine or piperidine without isolation of the intermediate acetoacetylchloride gave $\gamma$-chloro-$\beta$-keto derivatives. These were reacted with thioureas to give morpholinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines and piperidinylcarbonylmethyl-2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines respectively in good yield (27-98%). The compound 3j, in which two fluorine atoms are substituted at ortho and para position of phenyl group of 2-phenylimino moiety and piperidinyl group is substituted at C-4, showed the highest antifungal activity (100 ppm, 90%). This result suggested that the substituent at C-4 of the 2-phenylimino-1,3-thiazolines may play a supplementary role to show the antifungal activity against rice blast.

Methyl linoleate was oxidized at 60, 90, 120 and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively, with sparging oxygen for different periods of time. On the basis of the peroxide values determined at four temperatures, four heating times were chosen for the analysis of physicochemical parameters, such as peroxide value, total oxidation products, polymer content, viscosity, refractive index and characteristics of thermal degradation by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimeter). The content of peroxide linkage (C-O-O-C) polymer and ether or carbon to carbon linkage (C-O-C/C-C) polymer were analyzed by High Performance Size Exclusion Chromatography (HPSEC). The polymer formed at four temperatures was qualitatively identified as dimer. The polymer with peroxide linkage (C-O-O-C) were detected from methyl linoleate oxidized at $60^{\circ}C\;and\;90^{\circ}C$, but they were not detected from methyl linoleate oxidized at $120^{\circ}C\;and\;150^{\circ}C$. The enthalpy changes increased as peroxide value increased whereas maximum degradation temperature decreased. The highest correlation coefficients were obtained between maximum degradation temperature $(T_m)$, exothermic enthalpy changes and peroxide value, peroxide linkage (C-O-O-C) polymer content.

지금까지 반도체 표면에 대한 연구는 주로 (1000, (111) 표면 등 낮은 밀러 지표를 가진 표면에 대해 이루어져 왔다. 이에 반해 밀러 지표가 높은 Si 면은 불안정하고, 가열하면 다른 표면, 즉 지표가 낮은 면으로 재배열하는 경향이 있는 것으로 알려져 있는데 아직 이들 높은 밀러 지표를 가진 표면에 대한 연구는 미미한 상태이다. 그러나, Si(113)면은 밀러 지표가 높으면서도 안정하기 때문에 Si(113)의 구조를 정확하게 알 수 있다면 밀러 지표가 낮은 Si 표면이 안정한 이유를 이해할 수 있을 것이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 TOF-CAICISS 장치(Time of Flight - CoAxial Impact Collision Ion Scattering Spectroscopy) 장비와 RHEED(Reflection High Energy Electron Diffrction)를 이용하여 Si(113) 표면의 구조와 Si(113) 표면의 온도에 따른 구조 변화를 관찰하였다. TOF-CAICISS 실험결과를 보면 (3$\times$2)에서 (3$\times$1)으로 상변환하면서 Si(113) 표면에 오각형을 이루는 dimer 원자들과 adatom 원자들간의 높이차가 작아짐을 알 수 있다.

Ly-6E.1 antigen was proposed as a regulatory molecule of T lymphocyte activation, a hematopoietic stem cell marker, a memory cell marker, and an adhesion molecule. Though there were several reports suggesting the presence of Ly-6 ligand, the characterization of the ligand was not yet performed, As an attempt to screen the expression of Ly-6E.1 ligand, we prepared a probe for detecting Ly-6E.1 ligand by producing a fusion protein between Ly-6E.1 and $hlgC_{r1}$, A mammalian cell expression vector with Ly-6E.$1/hlgC_{r1}$ chimeric cDNA was transfected in SP2/0-Ag14 myeloma cells, and stable transfectants were selected. The fusion protein was produced as a dimer and maintained the epitopes for monoclonal antibodies specific for Ly-6E.1 and for anti-human lgG antibody. The purified fusion protein through Gammabind G column was used for FACS analyses for the expression of Ly-6E.1 ligand. The fusion protein interacted with several cell lines originating from B cells, T cells, or monocytes. The fusion Protein also strongly stained bone marrow, lymph node, and spleen cells, but thymic cells weakly, if any. The staining was more obvious in C57BL/6 $(Ly-6^b)$ than Balb/c $(Ly-6^a)$ mice. These results suggest that the interaction of Ly-6E.1 with Ly-6E.1 ligand may function both in the stem cell environment and in the activation of mature lymphocytes. The fusion protein may be a valuable tool in characterization of biochemical properties of the Ly-6E.1 ligand and, further, in isolating its cDNA.

The crystal and molecular structure of P-aminobenzaldehyde cyclohexylthiosemicarbazone, C14H20N4S, has been determined from 2712 integrated intensities measured on a computer controlled four circle diffractometer with monochromated $CuK_{\alpha}$, X-ray radiation. The crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c with eight molecules in a unit cell of dimensions, a = 12.488(2), b = 12.276(4), c = 19.997(6)${\AA}$ and ${\beta}=103.55(3)^{\circ}$. The structure was solved by Patterson and Fourier method and refined by a full-matrix least squares method to a final R value of 0.058 for all reflections. The C(8)-S bond is trans to N(2)-N(3) and C(8)-N(1) is cis to N(2)-N(3) bond. The cyclohexane ring has chair conformation and makes an angle of $40.7^{\circ}$ with the benzene ring. The molecules are linked by N(2)H…S hydrogen bonds into dimer-like units which are held together by $N-H{\ldots}N$ hydrogen bonds. Sulfur accepts second rather weak hydrogen bond from N(4). An intramolecular hydrogen bond exists between N(1) and N(3) atoms.
