The palatine tonsils(tonsils) and pharyngeal tonsils(adenoids) are situated at the entrance of the respiratory and alimentary tracts and represent the first site of contact with a variety of microorganisms and other antigens present in food and inhaled air. They are known as lymphoid organs carrying out the function of cellular and humoral immunity, and so they form a local protective barrier. And the expression of the vascular endothelial adhesion molecules is known to play an important role for the inflammatory reaction in tonsils and adenoids as well as in other inflammatory tissues, by binding with the receptors on the surface of leukocytes. But although several scientific hypotheses on the role of these lympoid tissues have been suggested, their complete functions have remained unknown. The purpose of this study is to present an basic data of the knowledge on the immunologic physiology of the tonsils and adenoids and their role as active immunologic organs that reinforce the mucosal immunity of the entire upper aerodigestive tract. We examined 16 human tonsils and adenoids and the expression of three endothelial adhesion molecules, vascular endothelial adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1), intracellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1), and E-selection, in tissue sections using immunohistochemistry. We used the inferior turbinate mucosa obtained from 9 patients getting septal surgery as a control group. The expressions of vascular endothelial adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1) and intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) were significantly higher in the tonsils and adenoids. But respectively, there were no significant differences between the tonsils and adenoids. The expression of E-selection was significant higher in the tonsils, but not in the adenoids. We observed that tonsils and adenoids showed significantly higher expressions of vascular endothelial adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1), intracellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1), and E-selection (in the case of E-selection, only in the tonsils). We propose that these adhesion molecules play an important role for the immunologic reaction by the transendothelial migration of lymphocytes and binding with the receptors on the surface of leukocytes.

최근 들어 건강에 대한 관심이 증대되면서 건강증진과 관련된 많은 probiotics 균주들의 선별에 대한 연구가 계속해서 진행되고 있다. L. acidophilus를 포함하는 probiotics 중 장 상피세포에 부착력이 우수한 균종들이 보고되고 있으며 이들은 병원성 미생물을 예방하는데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 본 실험에서는 HT-29 cell을 대상으로 다양한 근원으로부터 분리된 L. acidophilus의 부착능력을 측정하였다. 부착능이 우수하다고 보고된 LGG를 대조구로 부착능력을 평가하였을 때 5종의 L. acidophilus 모두 LGG와 유사한 부착능력을 나타내었으며 L. acidophilus A4의 경우 가장 높은 1.2${\times}$$10^{7}$ cfu/ml의 부착능력을 보였다. 따라서 장 상피세포에 대한 부착능력이 host에 대한 특이성과는 높은 상관관계가 없는 것으로 생각된다. 또한 부착된 유산균을 3분씩 3회 연속 wash-out을 실시하였을 때 모두 $10^{5}$ cfu/mL 이상의 부착능력을 유지하였다. 그러나 이러한 probiotics의 부착능력과 세포표면 소수성의 상관관계를 관찰하였을 때 어떠한 유의성도 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 본 실험에서 사용된 5종의 L. acidophilus의 경우 세포표면 소수성에 의해 부착능력이 나타나는 것이 아니라 다른 기작에 의해 부착능력이 나타나는 것으로 생각된다. 그리고 5종의 L. acidophilus를 대상으로 EHEC ATCC 43889의 장 상피세포 부착억제능력을 측정하였을 때 5종 모두 대조구와 비교했을 때 EHEC의 부착을 2 log 수준으로 억제하는 것으로 나타났다. 명확하지는 않지만 이는 일부 유산균주의 부착능력과 관계가 있는 것으로 생각되며 또한 유산균이 생성하는 발효산물이나 세포표면 단백질에 의해 영향을 받는 것으로 생각된다.다.

The effect of annealing treatment conditions on the interfacial adhesion energy between electrolessplated Ni film and polyimide substrate was evaluated using a $180^{\circ}$ peel test. Measured peel strength values are $26.9{\pm}0.8,\;22.4{\pm}0.8,\;21.9{\pm}1.5,\;23.1{\pm}1.3,\;16.1{\pm}2.0\;and\;14.3{\pm}1.3g/mm$ for annealing treatment times during 0, 1, 3, 5, 10, and 20 hours, respectively, at $200^{\circ}C$ in ambient environment. XPS and AES analysis results on peeled surfaces clearly reveal that the peeling occurs cohesively inside polyimide. This implies a degradation of polyimide structure due to oxygen diffusion through interface between Ni and polyimide, which is also closely related to the decrease in the interfacial adhesion energy due to thermal treatment in ambient conditions.

$80^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하거나, $80^{\circ}C$와 상대습도 85%인 습도 조건에서 처리한 황동이 피복된 강선 코드의 표면 상태와 고무와 접착 성질을 조사하였다. 열처리로 황동의 산화가 진행되었으며, 습윤처리 후에는 더 심하게 산화되었다. 처리기간이 길어질수록 전처리한 코드의 접착 성질이 나빠졌으며, 고무부착 정도가 심하게 저하되었다. 황동 피복층의 산화로 인한 코드의 접착 성질 저하를 산화아연층의 과도한 성장과 연계지어 설명하였다.

Classical molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) were conducted to simulate nano-sized cluster collisions with a weakly attractive static surface. Energy exchanges associated with the cluster collision and the adhesion probability are discussed. Routes of the energy exchanges and the kinetic energy loss are vastly altered in their mode according to the cluster incident velocity. In the elastic collision regime ($V_0$<0.1), most incident kinetic energy is recovered into the rebounding kinetic energy, but a little loss in the incident kinetic energy causes the cluster adhesion. Dissipated kinetic energy is converted into the rotational energy. In the weakly plastic collision regime (0.1<$V_0$<0.3), the transition from elastic to plastic collision occurs, and a large part of the released potential energy is converted into rebounding translational energy. For strongly plastic collisions ($V_0$>0.3), permanent cluster deformation occurs with extensive collapse of the lattice structure inducing a solid-to-solid phase transition; moreover, most of the cluster kinetic energy is converted into cluster potential and thermal energy.

In this work, recovery of semiconductive silicone rubber on oxygen plasma treatment was investigated in terms of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS). The adhesion characteristics of semiconductive-insulating interface layer of silicone rubber were studied by measuring the T-peel strengths. As a result, surface methyl groups is removed and an oxidized layer containing Si atoms bound to 3 or 4 oxygens appears. The surface is later covered by a very thin layer due to migration of low-molecular-weight components from the bulk, resulting in decreasing the degree of adhesion of the semiconductive-insulating interface layer of silicone rubber these results are probably due to reorientation of polar groups or migration of low-molecular-weight.

Dry adhesion caused by Nanoscale contact comes up to important scientific issue. Herein, we introduce bendable nanohairy locking fastener system with high shear strength and mechanically flexible backing. The polymeric patches like velcro are composed of an array of straight nanohairs with 100 nm diameter and $1{\mu}m$ height. To fabricate high aspect vertical nanohairs, we used UV molding method with appropriately flexible and rigid polyurethane acrylate material on PET substrate. Two identical nanohairy patches are easily merged and locked each other induced by van der Waals force. Because nanohairs can be arrayed with high density ${\sim}4{\times}10^8/cm^2$, we can obtain high shear adhesion force on flat surface (~22 N/$cm^2$). Furthermore, we can obtian nanohairy locking system with maximum shear adhesion ~48 N/$cm^2$ of curved surface due to flexibility of PET substrate. We confirm the tendency that shear adhesion force increases, as radius of curvature increases.

This study investigated the effect of nitriding on the hardness and adhesion properties of $TiB_2$ coatings. Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) was used for both nitriding and deposition. By applying ICP, H13 steel was nitrided at a high rate of $50\;{\mu}m/hr$. After nitriding, a Fe4N compound layer or a diffusion layer was formed according to the hydrogen/nitrogen ratio. Both layers could improve the load-bearing capacity of the substrate by increasing the substrate hardness. The adhesion of the $TiB_2$ coatings increased to $\~30N$ after nitriding, but the hardness of the coating was lowered to 20-30 GPa. However, the adhesion of the $TiB_2$ coatings with a high hardness (>60 GPa) could not be improved substantially by nitriding due to the large difference in hardness between the coating and the substrate. The grain size of the $TiB_2$ coating was larger on the nitrided substrates, resulting in a decrease in the hardness of the coating.

Flexible copper clad laminates (FCCL) fabricated by sputtering has advantages in fine pitch etching and dimensional accuracy than previous casting or laminating type FCCL, But its lower adhesion is inevitable technical challenge to solve for commercializing it. Chromium (Cr) which strongly reacts with O moiety was used as tie-coating layer in order to improve low adhesion between copper (Cu) and polyimide (PI). Sputtering raw polyimide (SRPI) and casting raw polyimide (CRPI) were used as substrates at this research. PI was pretreated by plasma before sputtering, and each sample was varied with RF power and Cr thickness on sputtering. Peel strength of the FCCL on SRPI was higher than that on CRPI. Adhesion had maximum value when 10 nm of Cr was deposited on SRPI by RF power of 50 W. It seems to be by the formation of Cu-Cr-O solid solution at the metal-PI interface.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG1K) and sulfonated PEG (PEG1K-SO$_3$) methacrylate (MA) copolymers have been prepared and characterized. The structures of the synthesized copolymers were confirmed by $^1$H and $^{13}$ C NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The bulk characteristics of the copolymers were evaluated by viscosity and thermal analysis. The surface properties of the copolymers were investigated using dynamic contact angle measurements and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis. The hydrophilicity of the surfaces modified with PEG1KMA or PEG1K-SO$_3$MA increased, possibly as a result of the orientation of the hydrophilic PEG1KMA/PEG1K-SO$_3$MA chains into the water phase. Platelets adhered less to the surfaces of the copolymers than they did to a polyurethane control. In addition, adhesion of platelets to the copolymer surfaces decreased upon increasing the chain density of PEG1KMA and sulfonated PEG1KMA in the copolymers. Both bacterial adhesion and protein adsorption were significantly reduced on the copolymer surfaces and their levels differ depending on the kind of surface or media.
