In this study, we investigated the inhibition effects of single and mixed heavy metal ions ($Zn^{2+},\;Ni^{2+},\;Cu^{2+},\;and\;Cd^{2+}$) on iron oxidation by Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans. Effects of metals on the iron oxidation activity of A. ferrooxidans are categorized into four types of patterns according to its oxidation behavior. The results indicated that the inhibition effects of the metals on the iron oxidation activity were noncompetitive inhibitions. We proposed a reduced inhibition model, along with the reduced inhibition constant ($\alpha_i$), which was derived from the inhibition constant ($K_I$) of individual metals and represented the tolerance of a given inhibitor relative to that of a reference inhibitor. This model was used to evaluate the toxicity effect (inhibition effect) of metals on the iron oxidation activity of A. ferrooxidans. The model revealed that the iron oxidation behavior of the metals, regardless of metal systems (single, binary, ternary, or quaternary), is closely matched to that of any reference inhibitor at the same reduced inhibition concentration, $[I]_{reduced}$, which defines the ratio of the inhibitor concentration to the reduced inhibition constant. The model demonstrated that single metal systems and mixed metal systems with the same reduced inhibitor concentrations have similar toxic effects on microbial activity.

Nicotine (100 .mu. M) was incubated with microsomes (1 mg/ml) prepared from New Zealand White rabbits. On the basis of microsomal weight, the rate of nicotine oxidation were calculated on the basis of cytochrome P-450 concentration, the specific activity of the metabolic oxidation catalyzed by lung was approximately 4 times greater than liver (6.4 vs 1, 65 nmoles nicotine oxidized. nmole cytochrome $P-450^{-1}\;min{-1})$. These studies employed several methods of altering activities of specific isozymes present in pulmonary microsomes, including the use of the isozyme2 and 6 specific inhibitor $\alpha$-methylbenzyl ABT, metabolite inhibitors, norbenzphetamine and N-hydroxyamphetamine. TCDD induction and Arochlor 1260 pretreatment. These results support the conclusion that nicotine metabolism by rabbit lung microsomes is mediated primarily by cytochrome P-450 isozyme 2.

순환전압전류법을 사용하여 전류-전압 곡선을 측정하였다. 전기화학적 특성과 금속의 표면상태간의 관계는 전자현미경(SEM)을 사용하여 조사하였다. 그리고 순환전압전류법에 의한 전기화학적 측정은 3 전극 시스템을 사용하였다. 측정 범위는 초기 포텐셜에서 -1350 mV까지 환원시키고, 연속적으로 1650 mV까지 산화시키고, 다시 초기지점으로 환원시켜 측정하였다. 스캔속도는 50, 100, 150, 200 및 250 mV/s를 선정하였다. 그 결과, 부식억제로 모노에탄올아민(MEA)을 사용하여 금속의 C-V 특성은 순환전압전류법으로부터 산화 전류에 기인한 비가역 공정으로 나타났다. 부식억제제로 MEA을 사용하였을 경우에는 전해질의 농도가 증가할수록 확산계수가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그리고 구리의 SEM 이미지를 보면, 전해질 농도를 증가시키면 표면부식은 증가하였다. 부식억제제로 $1.0{\times}10^{-3}M$ MEA를 첨가시키면, 전해질 농도 0.1 N의 경우 확산계수가 상대적으로 커서 부식억제 효과가 적었다.

Effect of the depletion or oxidation of GSH on mitomycin c (MMC)-induced mitochondrial damage and cell death was assessed in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) cells. MMC induced cell death and the decrease in the GSH contents in SCLC cells, which were inhibited by z-LEHD.fmk (a cell permeable inhibitor of caspase-9), z-DQMD.fmk (a cell permeable inhibitor of caspase-3) and thiol compound, N-acetylcysteine. MMC caused nuclear damage, release of cytochrome c and activation of caspase-3, which were reduced by N-acetylcysteine. The depletion of GSH due to L-butionine-sulfoximine enhanced the MMC-induced cell death and formation of reactive oxygen species in SCLC cells, whereas the oxidation of GSH due to diamide or $NH_2Cl$ did not affect cytotoxicity of MMC. The results show that MMC may cause cell death in SCLC cells by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction, leading to activation of caspase-9 and -3. The MMC-induced change in the mitochondrial membrane permeability, followed by cell death, in SCLC cells may be significantly enhanced by the depletion of GSH. In contrast, the oxidation of GSH may not affect cytotoxicity of MMC.

탄화 매트릭스의 전구체로 사용된 페놀수지에 세라믹 분말인 이규화몰리브덴 (MoSi$_2$)을 0, 4, 12, 20%의 중량비로 각각 고르게 분산시켜, 여기에 PAN계 탄소섬유를 함침하여 프리프레그법을 이용하여 일방향 탄소섬유/페놀수지 복합재료를 제조하였으며, 이를 다시 탄화(110$0^{\circ}C$) 시켜서 일방향 탄소/탄소 복합재료를 제작하였다. 본 연구에서는 난소/탄소 복합재료에 산화 억제제로 사용된 MoSi$_2$의 첨가량에 따른 복합재료의 산화거동을 산화분위기 하 600-100$0^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에서 조사하였다. 그 결과, MoSi$_2$를 함유한 탄소/탄소 복합재료는 복합재료 내치 기공 감소와 산소에 대한 유동 확산 방지막의 형성으로 인하여 카본 활성종이 방해를 받아 MoSi$_2$를 함유하지 않은 것에 비해 산화속도가 감소되어 내산화성이 향상되었다. 이는 산소의 공격에 대한 보호층을 형성하는 MoSi$_2$ 고유의 특성에 따른 영향이라 사료된다.

Studies on the biodisposition of beta-nicotyrine by lung and liver microsomes was examined in order to provide a better understanding of its fate in this tissue. beta-nicotyrine (100$\mu$M) was incubated with microsomes (1 mg/ml) prepared from New Zealand White rabbits. The rate of oxidation observed in lung microsomal incubations was 1.7 nmoles $\beta$-nicotyrine oxidized mg$^{-1}$ min$^{-1}$ compared with 2.7 nmoles $\beta$-nicotyrine oxidized mg$^{-1}$ min$^{-1}$ by the liver microsomal preparation. However, when these rates were expressed as a function of cytochrome P-450 content, the specific activity of the metabolic oxidation catalyzed by lung (8.3 nmoles $\beta$-nicotyrine oxidized nmole cytochrome P-450$^{-1}$ min$^{-1}$) was approxiamtely 4 times greater than liver microsomes (2.3 nmoles $\beta$-nicotyrine oxidized nmole cytochrome P-450$^{-1}$ min$^{-1}$). Isozyme studies on the oxidation of $\beta$-nicotyrine employed several methods of altering activities of specific isozymes present in pulmonary microsomes, including the use of the isozyme 2 and 6 specific inhibitor $\alpa$-methyl ABT, metabolic inhibitor(MI) complex formation. The results of this inhibition study would appear to indicate the $\beta$-nicotyrine is metabolized predominantly by pulmonary isozyme 5.

본 연구에서는 일방향 탄소/탄소 복합재료에 산화억제제로 사용된 $MoSi_2$의 첨가량에 따른 복합재료의 부착력, 파괴인성 그리고 충격강도와의 관계를 고찰하였다. 산화억제제로 사용한 이규화 몰리브덴 (MoSi$_2$)은 복합재료의 내산화 특성을 향상시키기 위하여 각각 4, 12, 20wt%의 중량비로 페놀수지에 함침시켰다. 본 연구에 있어서 복합재료의 부착력은 접촉각 측정에 의한 Wilhelmy 방정식을 사용하여 계산하였다. 파괴인성과 충격강도는 임계 세기인자 측정을 위한 3점 굴곡 시험 방법과 Izod 충격시험에 의해 각각 측정하였다. 그 결과, $MoSi_2$가 첨가된 탄소/탄소 복합재료의 파괴인성과 충격강도는 증가하였다. 특허 l2wt%의 $MoSi_2$가 첨가된 복합재료가 London dispersive 요소($W_A\;^L$)의 증가에 의한 가장 큰 부착력을 나타내었으며, 이는 복합재료의 각 구성요소간의 계면결합력 증가에 따른 결과라 사료된다.

ln this paper, the fuction of molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate (MoDTP) as an oxidation inhibitor of mineral oils was investigated and compared with 2,6-Di-tert-Butyl-4-Methylphenol (DBMP). Oxidation tests were conducted using an oxygen absorption apparatus. MoDTP showed anti-oxidation property, and length of induction time prolonged by increasing MoDTP concentration. However the induction time of DBMP was longer than those of MoDTP. The anti-oxidation property of MoDTP was found to be inferior to that of DBMP The capability of hydroperoxide decomposition ability with MoDTP was much greater than that with DBMP. However the rate constant of radical scavenging with MoDTP was much better than that with DBMP. It was found that the performance of MoDTP is exellent with respect to hydroperoxide decomposition but it is susceptible to chemical decomposition. From the fact that formation of phenol was observed when MoDTP was added to hexane solution of cumene hydroperoxide (CHPO), it is indicated that the decomposition of hydroperoxide with MoDTP occurs by means of ionic mechanism.
