Background To minimize the inflammatory reaction and improve healing, a new modified dermal substitute composed of an atelocollagen, chondroitin-6-sulfate, and amniotic membrane (AM) was applied to full-thickness skin defects in a pig. Atelocollagen was extracted from bovine skin, and two modified dermal substitutes were generated according to the cross-linking type. Methods The AM-collagen dermal substitutes were characterized and compared with currently used dermal substitutes in a pig skin defect model. There were five experimental groups: dehydrothermal (DHT) cross-linking atelocollagen with the AM on the top (AM-DHT), DHT and chemical cross-linking atelocollagen with the AM on the top (AM-DHT/chemical), Terudermis, Integra, and AlloDerm. After $3{\times}3cm$ full-thickness skin defects on the back of a pig were created, each dermal substitutes dermal substitutes was randomly grafted on the defects. Two weeks after grafting, autologous partial-thickness skin was over-grafted on the neodermis. The take rate of the dermal substitutes, skin, and histological sections were all assessed at 1, 2, and 4 weeks postoperatively. Results More rapid healing and a higher take rate were evident in the AM-DHT and Terudermis groups. Histological examination revealed fewer inflammatory cells and more fibroblast hyperplasia in these two groups. Four weeks after surgery, the amount of newly formed collagen was significantly more appropriate in the AM-DHT group. Conclusions These observations provide supporting evidence that a newly developed amniotic-collagen dermal substitute may inhibit inflammatory reactions and promote wound healing.

The paper is concerned with an improved scheme for application of the blank holding force in order to take account of the thickness distribution in the sheet material of the flange region. The scheme incorporates with a modified membrane finite element method for planar anisotropic materials. The new scheme proposed two coefficients α and βto calculate the compressive stress in the sheet metal due to the blank holding force, which should be determined properly for accurate analysis. The effect of αand βon the blank holding force distribution and the deformed shape is investigated with simulation of rectangular cup deep drawing processes by changing parameter values.

The present study was carried out to develop a sustained release implantable formula of bovine somatotropin (SRIF-BST) and to examine its sustained release effect. The SRIF-BST was produced by coating a solid pellet, which was comprised of BST and an excipient, made of a biodegradable polymer and poloxamer, which are capable of regulating the rate of BST release. The coated membrane of SRIFBST was observed with a field emission scanning electron microscope. The thickness of the coated membrane was approximately $1{\mu}m$, and the pore sizes of the coated membrane surface were below $10{\mu}m$. In dissolution test, the release duration of the SRIF-BST maintained for 10 days, whereas the release duration of the control BST formula maintained for 3 days. In weight gain assay and tibia test of hypophysectomized rats, the release duration of the SRIF-BST treated group was 12 days and the net weight gain was 53.16 g, also the tibia length and strength of the SRIF-BST treated group was increased 10.5% and 23.1% compared with those of the control group, respectively.

Natural frequency of a nano-resonator via nano transfer printing is studied. Through a nano transfer printing, the hybrid metal/polymer membrane may evolve a wrinkle. Natural frequency of a wrinkled hybrid membrane decreases significantly, as the amplitude to wavelength ratio becomes larger. To address the design limit of a hybrid nano resonator, we perform parametric study using finite element analysis. Specifically, we study the effects of the Young's modulus ratio of the metal/polymer membrane, thickness ratio and wrinkle amplitude to wavelength ratio, respectively. The results from the parametric studies can serve as guideline to design hybrid nano resonators.

1. 서론 : 막을 이용한 분리기술의 실용화의 최대 과제는 선택성이 높고 용매의 투과용매의 투과속도가 높은 막재질 및 처리 면적이 큰 막의 개발이 필요하게 되었다. 이러한 성능 개발은 1960년대 cellulose acetate 계통의 막개발 이후 1980년대 지지층 고분자위에 다른 고분자 물질을 도포한 복합막(thin film composite layer)이 개발되어 막의 성능을 급격히 발전시켰다. 그 중에서 초박막화(ultrathin membrane)는 분리막에 의한 분리공정의 최대 결점인 낮은 투과량의 개선을 꾀할 수 있다는 장점 때문에 다양한 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 박막 제조 방법에는 박층분산법, 침지코팅법, 기상증착법, 계면중합법이 있으나, 섞이지 않는 두 계면 사이에서 고분자를 형성시키는 계면중합법은 수용상에 함침된 지지막위에 유기상을 계변에서 중합시켜 박막을 얻는 기술이다. 중합과정에서 일어나는 계면의 형성과정에 대한 연구는 미흡하기에 이에 본 연구는 시간에 따른 계면중합 반응 형성과정을 고찰하는 방법을 소개하고, 형성된 박막의 아론적, 실험적 두께 측정을 비교하였다.

Liquid filtration by membrane filters is essential for the preparation of ultrapure water in semiconductor manufacturing processes. The separation of submicrometer particles suspended in ultrapure water with a laminated fibrous membrane filter was studied numerically and experimentally in the present work. We found that an electrical double layer around a single fiber expanded to a large extent at a low ion concentration, as in ultrapure water, and deformed toward the upstream of the fiber with increasing filtration velocity. Since an increase in the electrical double-layer thickness leads to a decrease in the electrical potential gradient, particles with the same polarity as the fiber approach the fiber more easily and are captured at a high filtration velocity. Experimental results also confirmed that the collection efficiency of polystyrene latex(PSL) particles through a PTFE filter became higher as the filtration velocity increased.

To easily separate chitosanoligosaccharides by size exclusion, an coencapsulating technology of substrate and enzyme was developed. The membrane was composed of alginate and a divalent cation such as calcium. Chitosan and chitosanase were enveloped in this membrane and the product released to medium by size exclusion. The capsule was stabilized in a 2% acetic acid solution (pH 5.0) containing 0.145 M CaCO$_3$. The leakage of substrate caused by the agitation speed was controlled by increasing alginate and CaCO$_3$concentrations. The lower limit of the alginate concentration and the agitation speed were 0.5% and 49rpm, respectively. Membrane thickness and capsule diameter were 10$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 2.5mm, respectively. By TLC analysis, the composition of chitosanoligosaccharides were mainly 3-6 mers. The molecular weight distribution of the released oligosaccharides ranged from 262 to 3624 Da by GPC.

Au was electrolessly deposited on polycarbonate (PC) membranes (0.1 μm pores) at the air/water interface. It was found that the Au nanotube dimension can be controlled by adjusting the plating temperature and the solution composition. Interfacial deposition of Au at relatively low temperatures (4℃) produced long nanotubes, which run through the whole membrane thickness with small openings. Increase of plating temperatures resulted in the decrease of nanotube lengths and Au film thicknesses. It was also disclosed that the inside-diameter of Au nanotubes can be controlled with negligible variations in length by changing the composition of a plating solution.

In the present study SEAM (Shear Energy Augmented Membrane) elements have been devel-oped. Maintaining the numerical efficiency of conventional membrane elements the effect of out-of-plane deformation (transverse shear deformation) has been incorporated for the purpose of computational stabilization without introducing additional degrees of freedom. Computations are carried out for the deep drawings of square cup to check the validity and the effectiveness of proposed SEAM elements. The computational results are compared with both the existing results. And the effects of process variables like initial sheet thickness punch & die round and clearance are checked
