Effects of split injection and oxygen-enriched air on soot emissions in a DI diesel engine were studied by the KIVA-3V code. When split injection is applied, the second injection of fuel into a cylinder results in two separate stoichiometric zones which increases soot oxidation. As a result, soot emissions are decreased with split injection. When oxygen-enriched air is applied together with split injection, higher concentration of oxygen helps secondary combustion which results in a higher temperature in the cylinder. The increased temperature promotes growth reaction of acetylene with soot but doesn't improve the acetylene formation during the second injection of fuel. As more acetylene is consumed in the growth reaction of acetylene, the net acetylene mass in the cylinder is decreased, which leads to a decrease of soot formation. With an increase of soot oxidation caused by split injection, the soot emissions are decreased significantly. However, to avoid excessive NOx emissions with increased oxygen concentration, the level of oxygen concentration should be lower than 22% in volume.

In photodynamic therapy (PDT), oxygen plays important role. Because of singlet oxygen which is produced by activated photosensitizer after laser irradiation of specific wavelength. The aim of this study is to find how oxygen concentration affects anticancer effect in PDT. Groups were divided into PDT with oxygen applied group and only PDT applied group. PDT with oxygen applied group supplied oxygen for 15 minute before laser irradiation. In vitro, CT-26 cell was incubated with various concentration of photofrin $(50.0{\sim}0.05{\mu}g/ml)$ and was irradiated with 632nm diode laser 6hr after application of photofrin. The cell viability of two groups was assessed by MTT assay. In vivo, CT-26 cell line was transplanted into the subcutaneous tissue of BALB/c mouse. The anticancer effect of two groups was measured by tumor volume change. In vitro study, the cell viability was significantly decreased at $1.56{\sim}3.13{\mu}g/ml$ in PDT with oxygen applied group. In vivo study, the PDT with oxygen applied group significantly higher reduction rate of tumor volume 7 days after PDT compared to PDT only group. The high oxygen concentration might enhance the anticancer effect of the photodynamic therapy.

It is highly needed to measure the dissolved oxygen (DO) concentration field in water for a variety of purposes such as biological, industrial, environmental monitoring and medical application. Application of PSP (Pressure Sensitive Paint) which is sensitive to oxygen concentration has been carried out to measure DO concentration field using PtOEP/PS film and intensity based method under the UV-LEDs illumination. A micro round water jet having 100% of DO was obliquely impinged on to a PtOEP/PS film coated plate placed in a 0% of DO water container. DO concentration fields on the impinging plate were quantitatively visualized with a $2.94\;{\mu}m$ of spatial resolution. Through pixel-by-pixel calibration, uncertainty of each pixel by different sensitivity, different dye concentration and non-uniformity of illumination was removed. It is demonstrated that the high DO concentration region was coincided with the impingement area. The DO concentration gradient due to DO diffusion was affected by Reynolds number.

The present study attempted to observe what changes the supply of highly concentrated(30％) oxygen cause to people's ability and cerebrum lateralization of verbal cognition, compared to air of normal oxygen concentration(21％). The experiment consisted of two runs, one for verbal cognition test with normal air(21％ of oxygen) and for verbal cognition test with more oxygen in the air(30％ of oxygen). Functional brain images were taken form 3T MRI using the single-shot EPI method. There were more activations observed at the occipital, parietal, temporal, and frontal lobes, but there were no changes in cerebrum lateralization with 30％ oxygen administration. The result of task performance showed the accuracy increased at 30％'s concentration of oxygen rather than 21％'s. It is concluded that the positive effect on the verbal cognitive performance level by the highly concentrated oxygen administration was due to changeless increase of left and right cerebrum activation.

본 연구는 액체질소와 같이 급속 동결이 가능하면서 질식의 위험을 배제할 수 있는 냉매로서 액화공기를 선정하였고 이의 적용성을 평가하였다. 액화공기의 안정성을 평가하기 위해 액체질소와 액체산소가 혼합된 액화공기의 산소 농도가 산업안전보건법에 제시된 산소 농도 기준에 부합되는지를 실험적으로 검증하였으며, 액체질소 및 액체산소의 혼합 비율, 액화공기 저장용기의 압력변화 및 유량변화에 따른 액화공기 산소 농도변화를 살펴보았다. 그 결과, 액체질소 및 액체산소를 8:2로 혼합하였을 경우 산업안전보건법에 제시된 산소 농도 기준에 부합되는 것을 확인하였다. 액화공기 저장용기의 압력변화 및 유량변화는 액화공기의 산소 농도에 큰 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타났다.

One-dimensional oxygen transport relation is indispensable to study the oxygen distribution in the LBE-cooled system with an oxygen control device. In this paper, a numerical research is carried out to study the oxygen transport characteristics in a gas-phase oxygen control device, including the static case and dynamic case. The model of static oxygen control is based on the two-phase VOF model and the results agree well with the theoretical expectation. The model of dynamic oxygen control is simplified and the gas-liquid interface is treated as a free surface boundary with a constant oxygen concentration. The influences of the inlet and interface oxygen concentration, mass flow rate, temperature, and the inlet pipe location on the mass transfer characteristics are discussed. Based on the results, an oxygen mass transport relation considering the temperature dependence and velocity dependence separately is obtained. The relation can be used in a one-dimensional system analysis code to predict the oxygen provided by the oxygen control device, which is an important part of the integral oxygen mass transfer models.

Dissolved oxygen, pH and cell concentration have been online monitored in cultivation processes with Escherichia coli by using a $MABOOMS^{TM}$ (microplate-based bioreactor with optical online monitoring systems). Fluorescent sensing membranes containing Ru ${(dpp)_3}^{2+}$ or HPTS were prepared with GA sol-gel matrix and coated into a well of a 24-well microplate. Fluorescence intensity was measured and correlated to the dissolved oxygen or pH. Cell concentrations were also online monitored by measuring optical reflectance at 650 nm. A well of a 24-well microplate could also be divided into 4 parts, each of which was coated with fluorescent sensing membranes for the detection of dissolved oxygen or pH. The 24-well microplate coated with fluorescent sensing membranes or a 4-divided sensing membrane. was used to online monitor the dissolved oxygen, pH and cell concentration during E. coli cultivations. The online monitoring results showed the characteristics of cell growth in cultivation processes very well.

This study was conducted to discover a substitute of $SF_6$ gas. $SF_6$ gas is widely used across the industries. Thanks to superior electrical properties, in particular, it has been commonly used in electrical industry. However, there have been a lot of studies on its serious effect on global warming. As a substitute of this synthetic gas, a mixture of dry air and $N_2/O_2$ was chosen in this study. In case of $N_2/O_2$, dielectric strength differs depending on the mixing ratio. This study examined dielectric breakdown and flashover after adjusting oxygen percentage in the dry air. This test was conducted in a quasi-uniform electric field depending on pressure, oxygen concentration and gas mixtures. The test results found that dielectric voltage and flashover voltage were the highest at a certain oxygen concentration. It is the results of this photoionization and electron attachment of oxygen.

Human umbilical Mesenchymal Stem Cell(uMSC) has been known as one of major component to regenerate connective tissues such as bone, cartilage, fat and others. The effect of low(5%), normotensive(20%) oxygen and freezing-thawing damage on proliferation of uMSC were investigated. low oxygen concentration culture of uMSC resulted in enhanced proliferation significantly($p$ <0.05) than 20% of oxygen culture. After the freezing-thawing injury to uMSC, 5% oxygen culture showed marked proliferation of uMSC than that of 20% oxygen($p$ <0.05) in the 5th passage of uMSC. Expression of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide anion 1 and glutathione peroxidase 1 appeared marked in 20% oxygen cultured uMSC, which suggest oxidative stress could induce less proliferation of uMSC. Above findings would suggest proliferation of uMSC in 5% of oxygen will give more yields.

FET형 용존산소 센서는 pH-ISFET를 기본 소자로하여 pH 감지 게이트 근처에 백금으로 된 작업 전극을 형성한 구조를 가지고 있다. 작업전극에 특정한 전위를 인가하면 전기분해로 인하여 용존산소의 농도에 비례하는 수소 이온이 pH 감지 게이트 주변에 발생된다. 따라서 pH-ISFET를 통하여 수소 이온 농도의 변화량을 검출하면 용존산소의 농도를 측정할 수 있게된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 FET형 용존산소 센서를 어레이 형태로 제작하여 적용하고 측정의 신뢰성을 높이기 위한 알고리즘을 도입한 FET형 용존산소 센서 어레이 측정 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한 상용 용존산소 측정기와 그 성능을 비교 분석하였다.
