Cell therapeutic agents for treating degenerative brain diseases using neural stem cells are actively being developed. However, few systems have been developed to monitor in real time whether the transplanted neural stem cells are actually differentiated into neurons. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a technology capable of specifically monitoring neuronal differentiation in vivo. In this study, we established a system that expresses cell membrane-targeting red fluorescent protein under control of the Synapsin promoter in order to specifically monitor differentiation from neural stem cells into neurons. In order to overcome the weak expression level of the tissue-specific promoter system, the partial 5' UTR sequence of Creb was added for efficient expression of the cell surface-specific antigen. This system was able to track functional neuronal differentiation of neural stem cells transplanted in vivo, which will help improve stem cell therapies.

In this paper, we present a novel algorithm to generate a 3D model of patient-specific orbital implant, which is finally produced by the 3D printer. Given CT (computed tomography) scan data of the defective orbital wall or floor, we compose the depth image of the defect site by using the depth buffering, which is a computer graphics technology. From the depth image, we compute the 3D surface which fills the broken part by interpolating the points around the broken part. By thickening the 3D surface, we get the 3D volume mesh of the orbital implant. Our algorithm generates the patient-specific orbital implant whose shape is accurately coincident to the broken part of the orbit. It provides the significant time efficiency for manufacturing the implant with supporting high user convenience.

Recent advancement of micro/nano technology enables the development of diverse micro/nano particle-based delivery systems. Due to the multi-functionality and engineerability, particle-based delivery system are expected to be a promising method for delivery to the target cell. Since the particle-based delivery system should be delivered to the various kinds of target cell, including the cardiovascular system, cancer cell etc., it is frequently decorated with multiple kinds of targeting molecule(s) to induce specific interaction to the target cell. The surface decorated molecules interact with the cell surface expressed molecule(s) to specifically form a firm adhesion. Thus, in this study, the probability of adhesion is estimated to predict the possibility to form a firm adhesion for the multi-ligand decorated particle-based delivery system.

수열합성법에 의해 제조된 티탄산바륨 (BT01, BT02, BT03, BT04, BT05)의 입자크기와 분체특성과의 상관관계를 비표면적, 제타전위, XPS, XRD 및 SEM에 의해 조사하였다. 레이져광산법에 의해 측정된 입자의 크기는 비표면적과 XRD를 통해 결정된 격자이방성과 밀접한 관계가 있음을 보였다. 분말의 비표면적은 입자의 크기가 증가함에 따라 감소하였으며, BT03 시료는 동일한 입자크기의 BT04에 비하여 큰 비표면적을 보였으며, 이는 입자들의 응집에 기인하는 것으로 SEM사진 및 XRD 분석을 통하여 밝혀졌다. 입자의 크기가 증가함에 따라 제타전위는 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, BT02와 BT03 분말은 다른 분말에 비하여 제타전위가 큰 음의 값을 나타내었다. XPS 분석결과 분쇄시 티탄산바륨과 물 사이의 반응에 의한 $Ba^{2+}$ 이온의 용출과 관련이 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

Carbon nanofiber (CNF) is used as an electrode material for electrical double layer capacitors (EDLCs), and is being consistently researched to improve its electrochemical performance. However, CNF still faces important challenges due to the low mesopore volume, leading to a poor high-rate performance. In the present study, we prepared the unique architecture of the activated mesoporous CNF with a high specific surface area and high mesopore volume, which were successfully synthesized using PMMA as a pore-forming agent and the KOH activation. The activated mesoporous CNF was found to exhibit the high specific surface area of $703m^2g^{-1}$, total pore volume of $0.51cm^3g^{-1}$, average pore diameter of 2.9 nm, and high mesopore volume of 35.2 %. The activated mesoporous CNF also indicated the high specific capacitance of $143F\;g^{-1}$, high-rate performance, high energy density of $17.9-13.0W\;h\;kg^{-1}$, and excellent cycling stability. Therefore, this unique architecture with a high specific surface area and high mesopore volume provides profitable synergistic effects in terms of the increased electrical double-layer area and favorable ion diffusion at a high current density. Consequently, the activated mesoporous CNF is a promising candidate as an electrode material for high-performance EDLCs.

효율적으로 이산화탄소를 처리할 수 있는 활성탄을 제조하기 위하여 활성탄의 물리적 특성이 이산화탄소 흡착에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 소나무 톱밥과 석탄이 활성탄의 원료로 사용되었고, 제조된 활성탄의 비표면적, 미세기공 부피, 중기공 부피를 분석하였다. 제조된 활성탄은 열중량 분석기를 이용하여 이산화탄소 흡착량을 결정하였다. 그리고 이산화탄소 흡착량 결과를 활성탄의 비표면적, 미세기공 부피, 중기공 부피에 따라 분석하였다. 실험 결과, 소나무 톱밥 활성탄과 석탄 활성탄의 비표면적과 미세기공 부피는 이산화탄소 흡착량과 높은 연관성을 보인 반면에 중기공 부피는 이산화탄소 흡착에 거의 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서 활성탄의 비표면적과 미세기공 부피를 극대화하는 것이 효율적인 이산화탄소 처리를 위해 매우 중요한 요소로 나타났다.

본 연구에서는 리그닌 기반 다공성 탄소(lignin-based porous carbon; LBPC)를 수산화칼륨(KOH)으로 활성화할 때 온도가 비표면적과 전기화학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 리그닌과 acrylonitrile을 그라프트 중합으로 합성한 리그닌-polyacrylonitrile (PAN) 공중합체를 전구체로 하여 LBPC를 제조한 후 LBPC를 KOH로 600, 700, 800, 900℃에서 활성화하여 활성화 처리한 LBPC (KA-LBPC-6, 7, 8, 9)를 제조하였다. KA-LBPC의 표면 특성을 알아보기 위해 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하였으며, 비표면적 분석을 통해 기공 특성을 파악하였다. 전기화학적 특성은 3전극 시스템으로 분석하였다. 실험 결과 SEM 사진상에서 활성화 처리에 의한 미세기공 형성을 관찰하였다. KA-LBPC-7의 비표면적은 2480.1 m²/g, 미세기공 부피는 0.64 cm³/g, 중기공 부피는 0.76 cm³/g으로 KA-LBPC 중에서 가장 좋은 기공 특성을 보였다. 전기화학적 특성 역시 2 mV/s의 주사속도에서 비정전용량이 151.3 F/g이었던 KA-LBPC-7이 가장 좋은 것으로 나타났다.

Activated carbon was prepared from waste citrus peels by chemical activation with $ZnCl_2$. The optimal condition of carbonization was at $300^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hr. Activation experiments with carbonized samples prepared at optimal carboniztion condition were carried out under various conditions such as activation temperature of 400 to $900^{\circ}C$, activation time of 0.5 to 2.0 hr, and $ZnCl_2$ ratio of 100 to 300%. In order to investigate the physical properties of the activated carbons prepared, iodine adsorptivities and specific surface areas were measured and their morphologies were observed from scanning electron microscopy. As $ZnCl_2$ ratio increased, activation yield decreased, while iodine adsorptivity and specific surface area increased. The optimal condition of activation was at 300% $ZnCl_2$ ratio and $300^{\circ}C$ for 1.5 hr, and then iodine adsorptivity and specific surface area was measured as about 862 mg/g and $756m^2/g$, respectively. SEM photography showed that the surface morphology was changed and many active pore were produced by chemical activation.

Carbonization characteristics of Indonesian bamboos were investigated using lab-scale tube furnace, in order to find optimum design temperature of a carbonizer for producing bamboo charcoal and vinegar. The bamboo samples used in this study are local bamboos from Damyang in Korea, Andong and Petung in Indonesia. Correlation of electric resistance, specific surface area and pH of bamboo vinegar with pyrolysis temperature has been investigated. Electric resistance of the charcoal increased for higher pyrolysis temperature the specific surface area was also increased as carbonization temperature got higher. Charcoal which has specific surface area of over $300\;m^2/g$ could be produced at $700^{\circ}C$. pH of bamboo vinegar was decreased for highter carbonization temperature and vinegar under pH 3 could be produced for all bamboo samples. In this experimental condition, it was found that lower carbonization temperature is better for producing bamboo vinegar of high quality, while higher temperature is better for obtaining bamboo charcoal with larger surface.
