  • Characteristics of Argon metastable density with electron density have been studied by using Laser induced fluorescence (LIF) in ICP. Two different evolutions of measured metastable densities with electron density depending on a measurement position are addressed. The experimental result is explained by using a zero dimensional global model and is due to electron kinetic properties in the positions that can be seen from electron energy probability functions measured by Langmuir probe. The underlying physics on metastable density with electron density and an experimental method of LIF are presented in detail.

  • The change of membrane fluidity in rockfish (Sebastes schlegeli) phagocytes during respiratory burst was investigated. Fluorescence polarization (FP) was used as a measure of membrane fluidity, and 1-(4-trimethylaminophenyl)-6-phenyl-1 .3 ,5-hexatriene (TMA.-DPH) was used us a fluorescent probe. The significantly higher FP values in phagocytes stimulated With zymosan or phurbol myristate acetate (PMA) than unstimulated control phagocytes suggests that membrane fluidity of phagocytcs is decreased during the respiratory burst. The faster decrease of FP value in PMA stimulated phagocytes than in zymosan sumulated phagocytes may be due to bypass of the receptor-mediated stages of functional modulation. which is needed in zymosan stimulated phagocytes.

  • Nowdays, fluorescent rhodamine chemosensors have attracted a worldwide interest due to its ability to selectively detect heavy and transition metal cations. Due to the importance in environmental and biological toxic effects, the developments of fluorescent chemosensors have been received considerable attention in recent. Especially, a rhodamine-based chemosensor probes have been proved to be useful by exhibiting the efficient "off-on" fluorescence switching toward selected metal cations. This fluorophore can undergo the transformation from non-fluorescent and colorless spirolactam derivative to fluorescent ring-open form. In this study, a new fluorescent chemosensor was synthesized using rhodamine B through two-step procedures, and its selectivity and related optical property were characterized. Selectivity and sensitivity was found toward $Cu^{2+}$ guest molecules and then related optical properties of rhodamine B based fluorescent chemosensor compound were characterized using discussed. In addition, computational calculation was used to determine the HOMO/LUMO values.

  • The effect of various drugs on the stability of the liposomal membrane of phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol was studied, employing the fluorescence self-quenching method. Calcein was entrapped into the phospholipid small unilamellar vesicles and the leakage of the fluorescence probe was monitored on adding the drug to the system. The results of the experiments showed that phenothiazine derivatives, some potent local anesthetics and surface active agents were very effective in inducing the leakage of calcein from the liposome. The leakage-inducing activity of these drug substances has been ascribed to their surface activity and the perturbation of the liposomal membrane by these substances. On the other hand drug substance with low surface activity or without amphiphilic moieties did not show any effect or only small effect on the leakage of calcein from the liposomes. The effect of lipid concentration on the stability of the liposomes was also investigated to show that the higher concentrations of lipid more drug was required to induce the leakage. The effect of surface charges of vesicles was also studied, and the results showed that the charge on the liposomes enhanced the stability of the liposomes against the leakage-inducing activity of these drug substances.

  • Five new 4- or 8-substituted-7-hydroxycoumarin derivatives (1-5) were synthesized as fluorescent sensors for metal ions. Fluorescent changes and selectivity for metal ions were compared based on the introduction of different ligands and/or testing with different substitution positions of 7-hydroxycoumarin in aqueous solution. Especially, probes 2, 3 and 5 displayed large fluorescence enhancements with $Zn^{2+}$ and $Cd^{2+}$. Probes 2 and 3 showed moderate selectivity for $Zn^{2+}$ over $Cd^{2+}$. On the other hand, probe 4 showed large fluorescence quenching effects upon the addition of $Ag^+$ and $Hg^{2+}$.

  • Dichlorodihydrofluorescein ($DCFH_2$) is a widely used probe for intracellular $H_2O_2$. However, $H_2O_2$ can oxidize $DCFH_2$ only in the presence of a catalyst, whose identity in cells has not been clearly defined. We compared the peroxidase activity of Cu,Zn-superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD), cytochrome c, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), $Cu^{2+}$, and $Fe^{3+}$ under various conditions to identify an intracellular catalyst. Enormous increase by bicarbonate in the rate of $DCFH_2$ oxidation distinguished CuZnSOD from cytochrome c and HRP. Cyanide inhibited the reaction catalyzed by CuZnSOD but accelerated that by $Cu^{2+}$ and $Fe^{3+}$. Oxidation of $DCFH_2$ by $H_2O_2$ in the presence of a cell lysate was also enhanced by bicarbonate and inhibited by cyanide. Confocal microscopy of $H_2O_2$-treated cells showed enhanced DCF fluorescence in the presence of bicarbonate and attenuated fluorescence for the cells pre-incubated with KCN. Moreover, DCF fluorescence was intensified in CuZnSOD-transfected HaCaT and RAW 264.7 cells. We propose that CuZnSOD is a potential intracellular catalyst for the $H_2O_2$-dependent oxidation of $DCFH_2$.

  • Fluorescent probes bound to DNA typically display nanosecond decay times and reveal only nanosecond motions. We extend the time range of measurable DNA dynamics using $[Ru(pby)_2(dppz)]^{2+}$ (bpy=2.2'-bipyridine, dppz=dipyrido[3,2-a2',3'-c]phenazine) (RuBD) which displays a mean lifetime near 90 ns. To test the usefulness of RuBD as a probe for diffusive processes in calf thymus DNA, we compared the efficiencies of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) using three donors which display lifetimes near 5 ns for acridine orange (AO), 22 ns for ethidum bromide (EB) and 92 ns for RuBD, with nile blue (NB) as the acceptor. The F rster distances for AO-NB, EB-NB and RuBD-NB donor-acceptor pairs were 42.3, 52.3, and $30.6{\;}{\AA}$, respectively. All three donors showed dramatic decreases in fluorescence intensities and more rapid intensity decays with increasing NB concentrations. The intensity decays of AO and EB in the presence of varying concentrations of NB were satisfactorily described by the one-dimensional FRET model without diffusion (Blumen and Manz, 1979). In the case of the long-lifetime donor RuBD, the experimental phase and modulation somewhat deviated from the recovered values computed from this model. The recovered NB concentrations and FRET efficiencies from the model were slightly larger than the expected values, however, the recovered and expected values did not show a significant difference. Thus, it is suggested that the lifetime of RuBD is too short to measure diffusive processes in calf thymus DNA.

  • Surface water is the main drinking water source in Korea. Algal bloom caused by phytoplankton in reservoir is common event in every summer season. To prevent or control the algal blooms, artificial circulation system has been adopted in many reservoirs, including Hoengseung reservoir. Total 7 hydraulic-gun-aerators were installed around the intake tower in Hoengseung reservoir since 2000. This study is to elucidate the effects of hydraulic-gun-aerators on phytoplankton bloom, pH, DO, temperature and evaluate the selective withdrawal and vertical distribution of phytoplankton by means of submersible fluorescence probe, which features high correlation with a standard ISO method (r=0.90, P<0.0001) for chlorophyll-a quantification.

  • To get a better insight into the biophysical mechanism of action of chlorhexidine digluconate, we examined the effect of chlorhexidine digluconate on the thickness of outer membranes isolated from cultured Porphyromonas gingivalis using energy transfer between the membrane surface fluorescent probe (l-anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid) and the hydrophobic fluorescent probe [1,3-di(l-pyrenyl)propane]. 1-Anilinonaphthalene-8-sulfonic acid quenches the monomer fluorescence of 1,3-di(1-pyrenyl)propane.
