  • Gamma-rays effectively decomposed TPA and EG, thus removal of $1.0{\times}10^{-3}$ M pollutants was near 65 and 95%, respectively, at an absorbed dose of 10 kGy. However, TOC removal in the radiation treatment was less than 5% due to a low transformation of both TPA and EG to $CO_2$. For TPA, gamma-ray treatment largely reduced biodegradability($BOD_5/COD$) by degrading TPA to non-biodegradable organic acids. This implies that the change of biodegradability should be considered when the radiation treatment is combined with conventional biological techniques. A weight-loss wastewater containing TPA and EG was also purified by gamma-ray treatment. Extraordinarily, biodegradability of the wastewater was increased at a low dose of 1 kGy. Though underlying mechanism was not clearly identified, this result stresses the effect of wastewater composition and absorbed dose on the biodegradability change.

  • Calculations are presented for the $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid-$(H_2O)_n$ (n = 0-5) clusters in both canonical and zwitterionic forms. We examine the effects of microsolvation on the structures and transformation between the canonical and zwitterionic forms. The canonical forms are predicted to be more stable for n = 0-4. With five microsolvating water molecules, the two forms of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid become quasidegenerate, with the energies of zwitterionic forms slightly (by 1 - 3 kcal/mol) higher. The lowest energy zwitterionic conformer of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid-$(H_2O)_5$ cluster is calculated to isomerize to canonical form through a barrier-less proton transfer process and is thus predicted to be kinetically unstable. Therefore, we predict that the canonical conformers of $\gamma$-aminobutyric acid should be observed predominantly in the gas phase at low temperature in presence of up to five water molecules.

  • Effects of V on both the formation of Ti-Nb-V carbonitrides and mechanical properties of Ti-Nb bearing low carbon HSLA steels were investigated. Hot rolling process was simulated by using Gleeble 3500 system with the steels containing three different levels of V ($0{\sim}0.1wt.%$). Vanadium precipitated as Ti-Nb-V carbonitrides at austenite region but it did not precipitate as VC during austenite to acicular ferrite or bainitic ferrite phase transformation. As V content increased, the amount of Nb precipitates was decreased but the average size of Ti-Nb-V carbonitrides was increased due to larger diffusivity of V than that of Nb. Coarsened Ti-Nb-V carbonitrides could act as heterogeneous nucleation site during ${\gamma}{\rightarrow}{\alpha}$ phase transformation, thus, acicular ferrite transformation was promoted as V content increased, resulting in increase of upper shelf energy.

  • The effects of rapid solidification and Cr addition to the microstructure variations of the rapid solidified Ti-48Al-xCr(X = 2,4,6) alloys have been investigated using X-ray diffractometry, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The segregated coarse ${\gamma}$ phase was eliminated and the microstructure was refined by rapid solidification of the cooling rate of $10^4-10^6\;^{\circ}C/sec$. The lattice parameters and tetragonality of ${\gamma}$ phase decrease with the increase Cr content and by the rapid solidification. Non-equilibrium phase ${\alpha}$ remains at room temperature condition, which would be resulted from the restriction of phase transformation ${\alpha}$ to ${\alpha}_2+{\gamma}$.

  • A cDNA encoding ${\gamma}-tocopherol$ methyltransferase (${\gamma}-TMT$) from Arabidopsis thaliana was overexpressed in lettuce (Latuca sativa L.) to improve the tocopherol composition. Seven lines of lettuce ($T_0$) containing the ${\gamma}-TMT$ transgene were produced by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The inheritance and expression of the transgene were confirmed by DNA and RNA gel blot analyses as well as quantification of tocopherols and ${\gamma}-TMT$ activities. The ratio of ${\alpha}-/{\gamma}-tocopherol$ content (TR) varied from 0.6 to 1.2 in non-transformed plants, while the $T_0$ plants had ratios of 0.8 to 320. The ratio ranged from 0.4 to 544 in 41 $T_1$ progenies of the $T_0$ transgenic line gTM3, and the phenotypic segregation indicated monogenic inheritance of the transgene (i.e., 3:1 = dominant:wild-type classes). There was a tight relationship between the TR phenotype and ${\gamma}-TMT$ activity, and enzyme activities were affected by the copy number and transcript levels of the transgene. The TR phenotype was stably expressed in $T_2$ progenies of $T_1$ plants. The results from this study indicated that a stable inheritance and expression of Arabidopsis ${\gamma}-TMT$ transgene in lettuce results in a higher enzyme activity and the conversion of the ${\gamma}-tocopherol$ pool to ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ in transgenic lettuce.

  • The skin displays a highly active metabolism of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA). Dietary deficiency of linoleic acid (LA), an 18-carbon (n-6) PUFA, results in characteristic scaly skin disorder and excessive epidermal water loss. Although arachidonic acid (AA), a 20-carbon (n6) PUFA, is metabolized via cyclooxygenase pathway into predominantly prostaglandin $E_2(PGE_2)$ and $PGF_{2{\alpha}}$, the metabolism of AA via the 15-lipoxygenase (15-LOX) pathway, which is very active in skin epidermis and catalyzes the transformation of M into predominantly 15S-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (15S-HETE). Additionally, the 15-LOX also metabolizes the 18-carbon LA into 13S-hydroxyoctadecadienoic acid (13S-HODE), respectively. Interestingly, 15-LOX catalyzes the transformation of $dihomo-{\gamma}-linolenic$ acid (DGLA), derived from dietary gamma-linolenic acid, to 15S-hydroxyeicosatrienoic acid (15S-HETrE). These monohydroxy fatty acids are incorporated into the membrane inositol phospholipids which undergo hydrolytic cleavage to yield substituted-diacylglycerols such as 13S-HODE-DAG from 13S-HODE and 15S-HETrE-DAG from 15S-HETrE. These substituted-monohydroxy fatty acids seemingly exert anti-inflammatory/antiproliferative effects via the modulation of selective protein kinase C as well as on the upstream/down-stream nuclear MAP-kinase/AP-1/apoptotic signaling events.

  • 알반적으로 CPT에 재현되는 칼라영상은 수상기의 특성이나 외부광원에 의하여 영향을 받으며 CPT에 재현되는 부정확한 칼라의 조정은 주어진 영상의 색 왜곡을 발생시킨다. 본 논문에서는 일상적인 광원 환경아래 시청자들의 측면에서 CPT에 재현되는 색의 모델링을 위한 색 조정 방법을 기술하였다. 이를 위하여 본 논문에서는 광원의 세기에 따른 감마 보정 상태에서의 휘도 보상 방법, 광원의 종류에 따른 색상 및 색농도 보상 방법 및 기준색 설정을 위한 특정색 조정 방법을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법에 근거하여 광원의 반사성분의 영향과 CPT의 감마변환 및 최적의 색 설정을 위한 기준 장면 조정시 발생될 수 있는 색 오차를 감소시키는 색 보상 시스템 구현 방법을 제안하였다.

  • The effects of betatizing and aging temperatures on the martensitic transformation characteristics in an Cu-13.4wt%Al-4.2wt%Ni single crystal have been studied. Microstructures show that the specimen betatized above $800^{\circ}C$ has only ${{\beta}_1}^{\prime}$ martensite while the specimen betatized of below $700^{\circ}C$ has two phases i.e., ${{\beta}_1}^{\prime}+{\gamma}_2$ When betatizing temperature increase from $600^{\circ}C$ upto $900^{\circ}C$, Ms and As temperatures decrease due to the dissolution of which ${\gamma}_2$ phase depletes Al content in the matrix thereafter makes the both Ms and As temperatures significantly increased. Ms and As temperatures of the specimen aged at $200^{\circ}C$ are relatively stable but those of the specimen aged at $300^{\circ}C$ are shifted rapidly with aging time, especially within the first 30min.

  • Let $X_k(x)=({\int}^T_o{\alpha}_1(s)dx(s),...,{\int}^T_o{\alpha}_k(s)dx(s))\;and\;X_{\tau}(x)=(x(t_1),...,x(t_k))$ on the classical Wiener space, where ${{\alpha}_1,...,{\alpha}_k}$ is an orthonormal subset of $L_2$ [0, T] and ${\tau}:0 is a partition of [0, T]. In this paper, we establish a change of scale formula for conditional Wiener integrals $E[G_{\gamma}|X_k]$ of functions on classical Wiener space having the form $$G_{\gamma}(x)=F(x){\Psi}({\int}^T_ov_1(s)dx(s),...,{\int}^T_o\;v_{\gamma}(s)dx(s))$$, for $F{\in}S\;and\;{\Psi}={\psi}+{\phi}({\psi}{\in}L_p(\mathbb{R}^{\gamma}),\;{\phi}{\in}\hat{M}(\mathbb{R}^{\gamma}))$, which need not be bounded or continuous. Here S is a Banach algebra on classical Wiener space and $\hat{M}(\mathbb{R}^{\gamma})$ is the space of Fourier transforms of measures of bounded variation over $\mathbb{R}^{\gamma}$. As results of the formula, we derive a change of scale formula for the conditional Wiener integrals $E[G_{\gamma}|X_{\tau}]\;and\;E[F|X_{\tau}]$. Finally, we show that the analytic Feynman integral of F can be expressed as a limit of a change of scale transformation of the conditional Wiener integral of F using an inversion formula which changes the conditional Wiener integral of F to an ordinary Wiener integral of F, and then we obtain another type of change of scale formula for Wiener integrals of F.
