SiC-coated graphite was successfully fabricated at different temperatures (1300-1600 oC) through a silicon vapor depositionreaction (Si-VDR) process. Si powder was used for the Si source of the SiC coating layers. When Si powder was evaporatedat high temperature near the melting point of bulk Si, Si gases are moved and changed into Si liquid at the surface of thegraphite. The high-temperature process facilitated the formation of SiC coating layers on the graphite. The microstructural,mechanical, and thermal oxidation properties of the coated graphite were investigated.

박정민,최성욱,방시원,함승주,김중현,김우식 한국화학공학회 2001 Korean Chemical Engineering Research(HWAHAK KONGHA Vol.39 No.6

본 연구에서는 일정 압력하에서 음전하를 띤 microspheres의 정전기적 반발력에 따른 투과 플럭스의 변화에 관하여 고찰하였다. Microsphere의 정전기적 반발력에 관한 영향을 관찰하기 위해 표면전하 밀도(N_c: 0.45, 5.94, 10.25)가 각각 다른 poly(Styrene/Methacrylic acid) microspheres를 제조하였다. 교반속도는 300, 400, 600 rpm, 이온강도는 0.1, 0.01, 0.001로 변화시켜 실험하였다. 투과 플럭스는 표면전하밀도, 교반속도, 이온강도에 큰 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 투과 플럭스는 표면전하밀도가 클수록, 교반속도가 증가할수록, 이온강도가 작을수록 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 교반속도가 크면 막표면의 농도분극층의 두께가 얇아지기 때문에 투과 플럭스는 증가한다. 이온강도가 작을수록, 표면전하밀도(surface charge density)가 클수록 투과 플럭스가 커지는 원인은 microspheres의 정전기적 이중 층의 두께가 두꺼워짐에 따라 입자 사이의 거리가 멀어져 공극률(porosity)이 커지기 때문이다. 정상상태 플럭스 자료로부터 비 저항 정의식을 이용하여 케이크층의 공극률을 구할 수 있었다. 전하를 나타내지 않는 polystyrene microspheres의 입자크기가 480㎚일 때 농도분극 층의 이론적인 공극률은 0.211이었고, microspheres의 표면이 methacrylic acid로 완전히 개질된 것은 비 저항정의식에 의해 3.04로 계산되었다. 또한 microspheres들간의 정전기적 상호작용력이 작아지면 농도분극층의 공극률도 줄어드는 것을 알 수 있었다. The effect of the surface charge density(N_c: 0.45, 5.94, 9.14 and 10.25) and the stirrer speed(300, 400 and 600 rpm) on the variation of permeate flux was investigated in a stirred cell filled with negatively charged microspheres under constant pressure. It was found that the permeate flux depended on the surface charge density, the ionic strength and the stirrer speed. High permeate flux was obtained in the condition of high surface charge density, low ionic strength and high stirrer speed due to the force of electrostatic interaction between microspheres. The porosity of a cake layer was calculated from the steady-state flux data. It was found that the reduction of porosity was due to a decrease in repulsive interaction between microspheres.

전해질 손상 및 Kanic Acid 을 사용한 편도체 중심핵 손상이 공포로 상승된 경악반응에 미치는 효과

한정수,김시현,김기석 한국심리학회 한국심리학회지 생물 및 생리 Vol.4 No.1

본 연구에서는 공포로 상승된 경악반응을 이용해, 공포나 불안을 담당하는 신경구조물인 편도체핵군 중에 하나인 편도체 중심핵의 역할을 알아보고자 하였다. 실험1에서는 조건화 전에 손상용 전극을 심은 후에 이틀에 걸쳐서 조건자극으로 빛(8w, 3700msec)과 무조건자극으로 발바닥 전기충격(1.0㎃, 500msec)을 20번 짝지워 제시한 후에, 편도체 중심핵을 전해질 손상(2.0㎃, 10sec)시켰다. 편도체 중심핵이 손상된 동물은 단순한 경악반응에 의한 반응크기와 조건자극과 경악자극 복합에 의한 반응크기간에 차이를 보이지 않았다. 전해질 손상은 세포체뿐만아니라 축색을 모두 손상하므로, 실험1의 결과는 편도체 중심핵의 세포체손상에 의해서가 아니라, 이 부위를 지나가는 축색의 손상에 의해서 야기된 결과일 수 있다. 그러므로 실험2에서는, 세포체만 손상시키는 카이닌 산(0.1㎍/0.2㎕)으로 조건화 후에 편도체 중심핵을 손상시켰다. 손상을 받은 동물은 조건자극에 대해 상승된 경악반응을 보이지 않았다. 이 결과로 보아, 편도체 중심핵내에 뉴론이 상승된 경악반응에 관여함을 알 수 있다. Of several amygdaloid nucleus, the central amygdaloid nucleus seems to be related to the expression of fear. This experiment is to examine effects of the central nucleus of amygdala on the fear-potentiated startle responses. In experiment 1, monopolar tungsten for lesioning were chronically implanted into the central amygdaloid nucleus in rats. After 7 days, rats received two conditioning sessions on consecutive day, each session consists of 10 light-footshock pairing(light of 8w incandescent bulbs, 3700msec: footshock of 1.0㎃, 500msec: ITI of 4min). After the conditioning, electrolytic lesion(2.0㎃, 10sec) was administered to the central nucleus. One day or seven days later, rats were tested for conditioned fear by comparing the magnitude of the startle reflex to a noise burst presented either alone or in the presence of the previously fear-conditioned light. Results were that the lesioned animals showed no fear-potentiated startle responses. In experiment 2, using kainic acid(0.1㎍/0.2㎕), we lesioned cell bodies without damaging any axons after the conditioning. Results showed that animals lesioned with the kainic acid did not showed potentiated startle responses to the conditioned stimuli. Taken together, it may be said that the intrinsic elements of central amygdaloid nucleus are involved in the expression of fear.

조혈모세포이식 환자에서 침습성 진균 감염에 대한 Micafungin의 예방 효과 및 안전성

김시현,이동건,최수미,권재철,박선희,최정현,유진홍,이성은,조병식,김유진,이석,김희제,민창기,조석구,김동욱,이종욱,민우성,박종원 대한감염학회 2010 감염과 화학요법 Vol.42 No.3

Background: Micafungin, a potent inhibitor of 1,3-β-D-glucan synthase, is a novel antifungal agent of the echinocandin class. In vitro study showed that micafungin was effective against Aspergillus species as well as Candida species, but clinical data on the prophylactic efficacy against invasive fungal infections (IFIs) other than candidiasis are still lacking. Materials and Methods: We identified 60 consecutive adult hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients who received at least 3 doses of micafungin during neutropenic period. Micafungin was started as an alternative in patients who were intolerant or had adverse events (AEs) to primary prophylactic antifungal agents. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records and analyzed the efficacy and safety of micafungin for prophylaxis against IFIs. Results: The patients either had autologous (n=9) or allogeneic (n=51: 1 syngeneic, 24 sibling, 26 unrelated donor) HSCT. Itraconazole oral solution (n=58) was the most frequently used first line antifungal agent for prophylaxis and was administered for median 11 days. The most frequent cause of switch to micafungin was vomiting (n=42). The duration of neutropenia and micafungin administration was median 13 and 12 days, respectively. A successful outcome was achieved in 45 (75%) patients. Empirical antifungal therapy was initiated in 13 (22%) patients. There were 2 cases (3.3%) of breakthrough fungal infections which comprised a probable invasive pulmonary aspergillosis and a possible invasive fungal sinusitis. There was no case of invasive candidiasis. A total of 53 (88%) patients experienced at least one AE regardless of causality during micafungin administration. The most frequent AEs were hypokalemia, vomiting, diarrhea, and elevated serum aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase. Among the aforementioned AEs, only 1 case of diarrhea could be classified as a probable relation with micafungin when causality was assessed. There was no AEs that caused discontinuation of micafungin. Conclusions: Micafungin seems to be a safe and effective agent for prophylaxis of IFIs including aspergillosis as well as candidiasis in HSCT recipients. However, further large, prospective, and randomized comparative studies are warranted for aspergillosis.

Kim, Si-Hyung,Choi, In-Sun,Cho, Jin-Hwa,Park, Eun-Ju,Jang, Il-Sung,Choi, Byung-Ju,Kim, Hyun-Jung,Kim, Young-Jin,Nam, Soon-Hyeun The Korean Academy of Oral Biology 2006 International Journal of Oral Biology Vol.31 No.2

Dysplasia-associated seizure disorders are markedly resistant to pharmacological intervention. Relatively little research has been conducted studying the effects of antiepileptic drugs(AEDs) on seizure activity in a rat model of dysplasia. We have used rats exposed to methylazoxymethanol acetate(MAM) in utero, an animal model featuring nodular heterotopia, to investigate the effects of AEDs in the dysplastic brain. Pilocarpine was used to induce acute seizure in MAM-exposed and age-matched vehicle-injucted control animals. Field potential recordings were used to monitor amplitude and numbers population spikes, and paired pulse inhibition in response to stimulation of commissural pathway. Two commonly used AEDs were tested: diazepam 5, 2.5mg/kg;phenytoin 40, 60mg/kg. Diazepam(DZP) and phenytoin(PHT) reduced the amplitude of population spike in control and MAM-exposed rats. However, the amplitude of population spike was nearly eliminated in control rats as compared to the MAM-exposed rats. Pharmaco-resistance was tested by measuring seizure latencies in awake rats after pilocarpine administration(320mg/kg, i.p.) with and without pretreatment with AEDs. Pre-treatment with PHT 60 mg prolonged seizure latency in control rats, but not in MAM-exposed animals. The main findings of this study are that acute seizures initiated in MAM-exposed rats are relatively resistant to standard AEDs assessed in vivo. These data suggest that animal model with cortical dysplasia can be used to screen the effects of potential AEDs.

분화중인 흰쥐 콩팥의 요세관에서 nNOS의 발현

송지현,류시윤,김진,정주영 韓國電子顯微鏡學會 2008 Applied microscopy Vol.38 No.2

Nitric oxide는 콩팥에서 혈류의 조절, 사구체 혈액역동학 및 요세관의 운반에 중요한 역할을 하는 인자로서 최근 세포의 주기조절, 유사분열에도 관여하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근 연구결과에 의하면 발생중인 콩팥에서의 nNOS의 발현은 성체와는 다른 것으로 알려져 있으나, 발생중인 콩팥에서의 발현 양상 및 발현시기 등에 대해서 알려진 바 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 발생중인 콩팥을 이용하여 분화중인 요세관에서 nNOS의 발현양상을 관찰하고자 하였다. 성체에서 nNOS의 면역반응성은 사구체 보우만주머니의 벽측상피와 치밀반, 내림가는부분 및 수질집합관에 발현되었다. 발생중인 콩팥에서는 임신 15일에 처음 발현하기 시작하였으며, 그 부위는 원위세관의 굵은오름부분이었다. 임신 20일에서 출산후 14일까지 새로이 형성되는 요세관의 굵은오름부분에서 관찰되었으나, 분화를 마친 요세관에서는 그 발현 양상이 감소하였다. 출생후 21일경에는 최종적으로 치밀반에만 국한되어 발현되었다. 속수질에서는 내림가는 부분과 속수질 집합관에서 발현되었으며 그 양상은 수질 중간부위에서 강하게 발현되었으며 시작부위와 말단부위에서는 약하게 발현되었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 굵은오름부분에서의 nNOS의 발현은 요세관의 분화정도와 일치하며 특히 그 발현양상이 분화가 활발한 시기에 강하게 발현되고 분화가 저하된 후에는 발현이 감소하는 것으로 보아 발생중인 콩팥의 성장에 중요한 역할을 할 것으로 생각된다. Nitric oxide (NO) is an important regulator of renal blood flow, glomerular hemodynamics, and tubule transport processes in the kidney. There is also evidence that NO is involved in cell cycle regulation and mitotic division. During development the nNOS expression pattern differs from that observed in adult animals. However, little is known about temporal and spatial patterns of nNOS expression in the developing kidney. The purpose of this study was to establish the time of expression and the distribution of nNOS in the developing rat kidney. Kidneys from 14-, 16-, 17-, 18-, and 20-day-old fetuses, 1-, 4-, 7-, 14-, and 21-day-old pups, and adult animals were preserved and processed for immunohistochemistry. In the adult kidney, nNOS was detected in the parietal epithelium of Bowman’s capsule, macula densa, descending thin limb and inner medullary collecting duct. nNOS immunoreactivity appeared first in the distal tubule anlage at 15 days of gestation, and in all epithelial cells of developing thick ascending limbs (TAL) as well as macula densa of 17- and 18-day-old fetuses. From 20 days of gestation to 14 days after birth, nNOS was expressed in the newly formed cortical TAL, which are located in the medullary ray, whereas in mature TAL of juxtamedullary nephrons, nNOS immunolabeling gradually decreased in intensity and became restricted to the macula densa. In inner medullary collecting ducts, nNOS immunoreactivity appeared first at 7 days after birth in the papillary tip and gradually ascended to the border between outer and inner medulla. In the descending thin limb and parietal epithelium of Bowman’s capsule, weak nNOS immunoreactivity was observed at 14 days after birth and labeling gradually increased to adult levels at 21 days after birth. These results suggest that differential expression of nNOS in the developing kidney is an important physiological regulator of renal function during kidney maturation.

육현정,손화영,류시윤,조성환 충남대학교 수의과대학 동물의과학연구소 2004 動物醫科學硏究誌 Vol.12 No.-

In March and July 2004, 2-year-old female Yorkshire Terrier and 7-year-old female Shih-Tzu were referred to the College of Veterinary Medicine, Chungnam National University. Clinically, two dogs showed anorexia, vomiting and emaciation. The signs had occurred after the dogs were fed diets infected with oxalate-producing fungi. At necropsy, Shih Tzu had severe renal damage with the green-yellowish colored uroliths in the renal pelvis and the both kidneys were extremely reduced in sizes. Microscopically, Yorkshire Terrier had acute nephritis contained necrotized and degenerated tubular epithelial cells in cortex. Numerous calcium oxalate-like crystals were infiltrated into most tubules, especially the proximal convoluted tubules. Shih Tzu showed chronic nephritis with nephrosclerosis displaced by fibrous connective tissue in most areas. The glomeruli had undergone all stages of variation such as degeneration and fibrosis.

김동현,정용길,박노국,이종대,전진혁,류시옥,이태진 한국공업화학회 2003 응용화학 Vol.7 No.2

To improve attrition resistance, calcium oxide was added to durable ZZF sorbent. It was named ZZFCa sorbent. The reactivity of ZZFCa sorbent was investigated in the fluidized-bed reactor. The influencesof the sulfur capacity and the regeneration time for various fluidization velocities from 0.07㎧ to 0.20㎧ were investigated for 5-cycles. As a result, ZZFCa sorbent appeared the high sulfur capacity abouve 10gS/100g sorbent. The sulfur capacity of ZZFCa was maintained, although fluidization velocities increased.

내경동맥의 후하방동맥류 수술시 Ring Clip의 이용 : Report of Five Cases

배시현,김철진,이정청 대한신경외과학회 1993 Journal of Korean neurosurgical society Vol.22 No.12

The development of more appropriate shapes of aneurysm clips will hopefully enable excellent clipping of most types of difficult aneurysms. The clipping of internal carotid artery(ICA) aneurysms protruding inferiorly is relatively difficult and has the high risk of premature rupture during operation using conventional clips. We report five cases of ICA aneurysms protruding inferiorly in the operative field. All aneurysms were successfully clipped with ring clips without difficulty. Our results suggest that the ring clips rather than conventional clips were appropriate in the ICA aneurysm protruding inferiorly in the operative field.

홍원표,남정만,김시현,이재호 중앙대학교 기술과학연구소 1996 기술과학연구소 논문집 Vol.26 No.-

리비아 사막지역의 지반특성을 연구하기 위하여 리비아 1단계 대수로공사가 실시된 지역의 지반특성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서는 Sarir 취수원에서 Ajdabiya 저수조를 경유하여 Sirt 저수조까지의 대수로 공사지역을 따라 실시된 실내시험과 현장시험결과를 포함하고 있다. 이 지역은 내륙지역(Sarir 취수원에서 Ajdabiya 저수조까지)과 해안지역(Ajdabiya 저수조에서 Sirt 저수조까지)으로 구분하여 연구된다. 본 연구결과, 지표면 부근에 있는 모암(Cap rock)은 주로 Caliche나 석회사암(Calcarenite) 성분을 많이 띠고 있고, 이들의 깊이에 따른 강도변화는 발견할 수 없었다. 또한 모래에 대한 Ncl도 깊이에 대한 변화를 발견할 수 없었으나 이들을 종류별로 분류하였을 경우, N치가 약간 증가하는 추세를 보였다. 끝으로 해안지역의 점토에서는 지표면부근에서 조금 과압밀된 경향을 볼 수 있었으며, 내륙지역의 점토에서는 대단히 높은 팽윤포텐셜이 관찰되었다. To study geotechnical properties on Sahara desert of Libya, geotechnical characteristics in the region of the Great Man-made River Project were reviewed. A series of field and laboratory tests were carried out along the route of the conveyance lines from Sarir well field to Sirt end reservoir through Ajdabiya holding reservoir. In the view of geotechnical aspect, the research subject area can be divided into two areas ; one is the inland area(from Ajdabiya holding reservoir to Sirt reservoir). The results of this study showed that the cap rocks nearby ground surface were generally composed of caliche or calcarenite and variation of its strength according to depth could not find. Also, N value in sand did not show a trend of variation with depth however, the N value in the classified soil reveals tendency to increased. The clay of ground surface in the coastal area was slightly overconsolidated due to the desiccation of the surface soils. The clay in the inland area had high swelling potential.
