토양증기추출공법(SVE)은 불포화 지반상태에서 휘발성 유기화합물(VOCs)과 유류오염 물질을 제거하는데 효과적이고 경제적인 공법중의 하나이다. 그러나 토양증기추출공법은 투기계수가 1 Darcy보다 작은 실트질 흙과 같이 낮은 투기계수를 가진 지반에서는 비효율적이다. 본 연구의 목적은 연직배수재를 토양증기추출기술중 관정으로서의 적용성과 공기 흐름 패턴에 대한 해석적 방법이다. 즉, 연직배수재를 이용한 실내 모형실험의 공기 추출 시험 결과를 바탕으로 하여 단일 배수재로서의 수치해석 모델을 검증하였다. 또한, 추출 시험결과로 투기계수를 결정하여 단순 분석적 접근의 유효성도 평가하였다.

본 연구에서는 MSG공법과 LW공법(또는 SGR공법)의 강도발현성, 침투성 등을 비교하여 사질지반, 실트질지반, 점토지반 등 대상지반에 대한 주입재료별(MSG-N, OPC)로 침투한계를 평가함으로서 대상지반별 최적 주입재 선정의 기준을 제시하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 사용된 그라우트재에 대하여 물리화학적 특성을 분석하고 응결재와 경화재가 일정비율로 혼합된 호모겔 강도 및 밀크 페이스트 강도 시험을 실시하였다. 또한 대상토질별, 침투압력별, 복합지층에서의 주입재별, 대형토조를 이용한 침투성 실험을 실시하였다. 시험결과, 사질지반 및 실트질 사질지반에서 효과적인 그라우팅을 시공하기 위해서는 MSG공법 주입재와 같이 초미립자계 주입재를 적용하는 것이 필수적이라고 판단된다. 또한, 초미립자계 주입재를 사용하는 경우에 대하여 지반의 종류에 따른 적정한 주입압력을 제시하였으므로 설계 시공기술자들에게 약액주입 지침자료가 될 것으로 기대된다.

Valacyclovir is a L-valyl ester prodrug of acyclovir which is a highly effective and selective antiviral agent in the treatment of herpes virus diseases. Valacyclovir is rapidly and almost completely converted to acyclovir and increases the oral bioavailability of acyclovir three to five fold. However, the intestinal absorption mechanism of valacyclovir is not clear. If the improved absorption mechanism of valacyclovir is fully understood, it will provide a rationale of designing the amino acid ester prodrugs of polar drugs containing hydroxyl group. The main objective of our present study is to characterize the membrane transport mechanism of valacyclovir. Methods : Intestinal absorption of valacyclovir was investigated by using in-situ rat perfusion study and its wall permeability was estimated by modified boundary layer model. The membrane transport mechanism was also investigated through the uptake study in Caco-2 cells and in CHO-hPepTl cells. Results : In the rat perfusion study, the wall permeability of valacyclovir was ten times higher than acyclovir and showed concentration dependency, Valacyclovir also demonstrated a D,L stereo-selectivity with L-isomer having an approximately five-fold higher permeability than D-isomer. Mixed dipeptides and cephalexin, which are transported by dipeptide carriers, strongly competed with valacyclovir for the intestinal absorption, while L-valine did not show any competition with valacyclovir. This indicated that the intestinal absorption of valacyclovir could be dipeptide carrier-mediated. In addition, the competitive uptake study in Caco-2 cells presented that dipeptides reduced the valacyclovir uptake but valine did not. Also, in IC$\sub$50/ study, valacyclovir showed strong inhibition on the $^3$H-gly-sar uptake in CHO-hPepTl cells over-expressing a human intestinal peptide transporter. Taken together, the result from our present study indicated that valacyclovir utilized the peptide transporter for the intestinal absorption.

벌크 비정질 형성능과 큰 포화자속밀도를 가지는 FeBSiNb계 아몰퍼스 합금 리본을 22~102$\mu\textrm{m}$의 두께 범위에서 단롤형 액체 급냉법으로 제조하였다. 이 합금은 두께 증가에 따라 보자력이 감소하고 최대투자율 및 교류투자율이 증가하였으며, 자기이력곡선의 각형비가 감소하였다. 한편 전기 비저항은 두께와 상관없이 거의 일정한 값을 나타내었다. 또 지구 관찰 결과, 두께가 증가하면 내부 자기 이방성의 변화에 따라 자구가 미세화 되고 보다 복잡한 자구 구조를 갖는 것으로 나타났다. 두께 81$\mu\textrm{m}$인 합금의 경우, 24 mOe의 작은 보자력과 1KHz에서 12,000이상의 높은 실효투자율을 나타내어 일반적인 고 연자성 비정질 합금(두께 약 20$\mu\textrm{m}$)의 특성을 능가하였다. 이와 같은 두꺼운 FeBSiNb 비정질 합금의 우수한 연자성은 자벽이동에 대한 표면 고착 효과의 감소 및 수직자기이방성 성분의 출현과 미세화 된 자구 구조에 그 원인이 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

Objective: To determine the killing effects on extracorporeal HepG2 cells under different temperatures, pressures of permeability and lengths of treatment time. Method: According to different temperatures, pressures of permeability and lengths of treating time, extracorporeal HepG2 cells of human hepatoma cell-line were grouped to 80 groups. Cell index (CI) as the measurement of killing effect were calculated by monotetrazolium (MTT) methods, i.e., CI =1- (the OD value in treated group - the OD value in blank control group) / (mean of untreated control group - mean of blank control group). According to the factorial design, data were fed into SPSS 10.0 and analyzed by three-way ANOVA (analysis of variance). Result: Temperature, pressure of permeability and length of treating time all had effects on the CI (cell index) level. Length of treating time was the most influential factor of the three. Additionally, any two of them all had statistically significant interactive effects on the CI level. When treated for 5-30 min, destilled water at $46^{\circ}C$ stably generated the highest CI. Conclusion: The "$46^{\circ}C$-destilled water-60 min" was considered as the optimal combination of conditions which lead to highest CI. We suggest exerting celiac lavage for 15 min with stilled water at $40^{\circ}C-43^{\circ}C$ in surgical practice as a hyperthermia treatment to achieve ideal killing effects on free cancer cells, which is feasible, practical, and clinically effective.

PURPOSES: The purpose of this study was to investigate the disintegration mechanism of concrete due to the infiltration of the moisture to the milling overlay pavement and to come up with a method to minimize the disintegration as well as verifying the effectiveness of the edge sealing and Fogseal method. METHODS : This study investigated the distress mechanism due to the infiltrated moisture remaining in the milling overlay pavement through chloride freezing test and verified the effectiveness of the sealing of the milling edge and fog seal methods, which have been devised to minimize the moisture infiltration, through laboratory water permeability test. Additionally, long-term pavement performance was compared for the effectiveness of the proposed method through under loading test, and field water permeability test was carried out to verify the field applicability of the proposed method. RESULTS: The result of the research confirmed that chloride deteriorates the concrete surface through disintegration and lowers its strength and that the laboratory moisture infiltration test verified the effectiveness of the milling edge sealing and fog seal methods in the deterrence of moisture infiltration to the overlay pavement with excellent long-term performance of the pavement treated with the proposed method. Although the field water permeability test revealed some deterrence of moisture infiltration of the milling edge sealing and fog seal methods to a certain extent, the difference was a little. CONCLUSIONS: The milling edge sealing and fog seal methods are limited in their effectiveness for the cases of improvident compaction management or mixture with large void, and it is believed that installation of subsurface drainage is more effective in these cases.

The objective of this study was to find a rational dosage form for vaginal mucosal delivery of LHRH. Vaginal absorption of LHRH was estimated by measuring its ovulation inducting effect in rat and in vitro vaginal membrane permeation study in rabbit. THe effects of different hydrogel bases, such as Polycarbophil and Pemulen compared with solutions on vaginal membrane permeation of LHRH were investigated. Sodium laurate, disodium ethylenediamine brane permeaiton of LHRH were investigated. Sodium ethylenediamine tetraacetate (EDTA) and sodium tauro-24, 25-dihydrofusidate (STDHF), which are effective peptidase inhibitors were chosen as additives to a LHRH hydrogel delivery system and LHRH solutions. A Polycarbophil compared with a solution formulation 3.4 times increase in LHRH vaginal membrane permeability compared with a solution formulation. Vaginal membrane permeability from the Polycarbophil was greater than that from Pemulen hydrogels. This may be due to the larger bioadhesive values. LHRH solution with EDTA(2%), STDHF(1%) and sodlaurate(0.5%) showed 4.1 times, 4.8 times and 6.0 times of ovulation inducing activity compared with control. These results suggest that enzyme inhibition effect of EDTA, STDHF and sod, laurate may be result in substantial enhancement of vaginal absorption. By administraiton of Polycarbophil hydrogels containing LHRH the ovulation inducing activity was 3.3 times greater than the solutions. This result indicates the bioadhesive hydrogels as well as peptidase in hibition significantly improved absorption of LHRH. By coadministration with these inhibitors the ovulation inducing activity of Polycarbophi hydrogel containing LHRH was comparable with subcutaneous administration in ovulation inducing activity.

Fungal cell walls and cell membranes are the main targets of antifungals. In this study, we report on the antifungal activity of an ethanol extract from Paeonia lactiflora against Candida albicans, showing that the antifungal activity is associated with the synergistic actions of preventing cell wall synthesis, enabling membrane depolarization, and compromising permeability. First, it was shown that the ethanol extract from P. lactiflora was involved in damaging the integrity of cell walls in C. albicans. In isotonic media, cell bursts of C. albicans by the P. lactiflora ethanol extract could be restored, and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the P. lactiflora ethanol extract against C. albicans cells increased 4-fold. In addition, synthesis of $(1,3)-{\beta}-{\small{D}}-glucan$ polymer was inhibited by 87% and 83% following treatment of C. albicans microsomes with the P. lactiflora ethanol extract at their $1{\times}MIC$ and $2{\times}MIC$, respectively. Second, the ethanol extract from P. lactiflora influenced the function of C. albicans cell membranes. C. albicans cells treated with the P. lactiflora ethanol extract formed red aggregates by staining with a membrane-impermeable dye, propidium iodide. Membrane depolarization manifested as increased fluorescence intensity by staining P. lactiflora-treated C. albicans cells with a membrane-potential marker, $DiBAC_4(3)$ ((bis-1,3-dibutylbarbituric acid) trimethine oxonol). Membrane permeability was assessed by crystal violet assay, and C. albicans cells treated with the P. lactiflora ethanol extract exhibited significant uptake of crystal violet in a concentration-dependent manner. The findings suggest that P. lactiflora ethanol extract is a viable and effective candidate for the development of new antifungal agents to treat Candida-associated diseases.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) of rats was modificated opening reversibly by infusing a hyperosmotic solution of arabinose (1.6 molal) into the right external carotid artery. Pre vious studies demonstrated that permeability was increased maxmmally in the first 15 min and remained slightly elevated at 1 hr. As control reference, saline was used. In the present study, to evaluate the effects of osmotic BBB opening on the BBB trasport according to hydrophilic or hydrophobic characteristics of drugs. And the differences of the uptakes of these compounds to right (treated osmotic opening) and left (untreated) hemispheres in same rats were compared each other following injection of 8 mCi per rat of $^{99m}Tc$-ethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) as hydrophilic drug or 5mg/kg of phenytoin as hydrophobic drug mto the right external carotid artery of rats between two groups (1.6 molal arabinose vs saline). The uptakes of $^{99m}Tc$-DTPA and phenytoin in the right cerebral hemispheres were increased to about thirty three times and twice rather than those in the left cerebral heimspheres, respectively. And PAs (permeability X capillary surface area) were also increased from a control mean of 2.11${\times}10^{-4}$ (Untreated) to 6.98${\times}10^{-3}\;sec^{-1}$ (treated osmotic opening for $^{99m}Tc$-DTPA and 0.29 to 0.17 $sec^{-1}$ for phenytoin, respectively. From the results of present study, it is noted that osmotic opening of BBB is more effective in the brain delivery of hydrophilic drugs rather than that of hydrophobic drugs.
