In this study, the solubility of oxcarbazepine in pure methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, 2-propanol, 1-butanol, acetone, acetonitrile, and tetrahydrofuran was analysed across the temperature range of 288.15-308.15K under atmospheric pressure by using a solid-liquid equilibrium method. The experimental values obtained data were correlated using the modified Apelblat model at each temperature. The mole fraction solubility of oxcarbazepine in all eight pure solvents increased gradually in a temperature-dependent manner. The highest mole fraction solubility of 3.08x10<SUP>-3</SUP> at 308.15K was observed for tetrahydrofuran, followed by acetone (1.82x10<SUP>-3</SUP> at 308.15K), acetonitrile (1.22x10<SUP>-3</SUP> at 308.15K), methanol (1.11x10<SUP>-3</SUP> at 308.15K), ethanol (6.17x10<SUP>-4</SUP> at 308.15K), 1-butanol (6.17x10<SUP>-4</SUP> at 308.15K), 1-propanol (6.16x10<SUP>-4</SUP> at 308.15K), and 2-propanol (4.13x10<SUP>-4</SUP> at 308.15K). The experimental solubility in all solvents correlated well with that calculated using the modified Apelblat equation across the temperature range of (288.15-308.15)K. Therefore, the experimental solubility and correlation equations established in this study could be useful during the crystallization/purification, pre-formulation, and formulation stages of oxcarbazepine production in laboratories and related industries.

$^1$H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed in the temperature range of 30 -- 300 K at 7 T to investigate the phase-dependent nature of the dynamic network of hydrogen bonds in a ((NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ single crystal. The crystal has six phases, which are ferroelectric, antiferroelectric, incommensurate, antiferroelectric, ferroelastic, and superionic with the respective transition temperatures of 63, 133, 139, 256 and 413 K. The spin-lattice relaxation time, T₁, of ¹H NMR is similar for the ammonium protons and the hydrogen-bond protons over the entire range of experimental temperatures. The T₁, of ¹H NMR gradually decreases down to 120 K and starts to steeply increase below 100 K. Then, the T₁ shows an abrupt decrease below 68 K with a sharp minimum at 63 K, where the ferroelectric transition occurs. The ¹H NMR spectrum shifts to the high-frequency side at temperatures below 63 K due to the ferroelectric phase transition. This behavior of the T₁ and the spectrum confirms a dramatic change in the dynamics of hydrogen bonds associated with the ferroelectric phase transition at 63 K. $^1$H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed in the temperature range of 30 -- 300 K at 7 T to investigate the phase-dependent nature of the dynamic network of hydrogen bonds in a ((NH₄)₃H(SO₄)₂ single crystal.

S6K1 Phosphorylation of H2B Mediates EZH2 Trimethylation of H3: A Determinant of Early Adipogenesis

Yi, S.,Um, S.,Lee, J.,Yoo, J.,Bang, S.,Park, E.,Lee, M.,Nam, K.,Jeon, Y.,Park, J.,You, J.,Lee, S.J.,Bae, G.U.,Rhie, J.,Kozma, Sara C.,Thomas, G.,Han, J.W. Cell Press 2016 Molecular Cell Vol.62 No.3

S6K1 has been implicated in a number of key metabolic responses, which contribute to obesity. Critical among these is the control of a transcriptional program required for the commitment of mesenchymal stem cells to the adipocytic lineage. However, in contrast to its role in the cytosol, the functions and targets of nuclear S6K1 are unknown. Here, we show that adipogenic stimuli trigger nuclear translocation of S6K1, leading to H2BS36 phosphorylation and recruitment of EZH2 to H3, which mediates H3K27 trimethylation. This blocks Wnt gene expression, inducing the upregulation of PPARγ and Cebpa and driving increased adipogenesis. Consistent with this finding, white adipose tissue from S6K1-deficient mice exhibits no detectable H2BS36 phosphorylation or H3K27 trimethylation, whereas both responses are highly elevated in obese humans or in mice fed a high-fat diet. These findings define an S6K1-dependent mechanism in early adipogenesis, contributing to the promotion of obesity.

1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments have been performed at 30 - 300 K and 7 T to investigate dynamics of hydrogen bond network in the single crystal (NH4)3H(SO4)2. The two proton sites, ammonium proton and hydrogen-bond proton, are identified from the 1H NMR MAS spectrum at 340 K. As temperature decreases, the 1H NMR spectrum shifts to the higher frequency side with a larger linewidth. The spectrum at 65 K shows a distinctive change in line shape toward the ferroelectric transition at 63 K. The measured values of T1 for ammonium and hydrogen-bond protons are similar in the whole range of temperature. T1 of 1H NMR shows a gradual decrease down to 120 K and starts to steeply increase below 100 K. Then T1 shows abrupt decrease below 70 K with a sharp minimum at 63 K, where the ferroelectric transition occurs. This temperature dependence of spectrum and T1 clearly prove that the large change in the dynamics of hydrogen bond network is associated with the ferroelectric phase transition at 63 K.

This experiment was carried out in order to observe the effects three elements of fertilizer(N.,P.,K.,) on the infection of tobacco brown spot disease. The plots were designed by split plot method with 8 treatment (A: check, B: 50% added applied N., P. and K., C: 50% subatracted applied three elements., D: 50% added applied N., E: 50% added applied P., F: 50% added applied P., G: no applied P., G: an applied P: and H: no applied P.). Check is N 14kg P2O5 21kg and K3O 28kg per 10 are respectively. Y.S.A was employed for sample variety and transplanted on 15 May. The results obtained as follow; 1) There were no differences among the plots (treatments) during the early growing stages. 2) The plot of 1½N, no K. and 1½N.P.K. have shown larger number of lesions than the check respectively. 3) The plot of 1/2 N.P.K.(C), 1½K(F), and no P.(G) have shown almost no differences in the rate of disease occurence as compared with check (A). In conclusion, excess application of N. and defficiency of K. seemed to be related with tobacco brown spot disease infection.

Wrinkle structures formed by formulating UV-crosslinkable liquid prepolymers

Park, S.K.,Kwark, Y.J.,Nam, S.,Park, S.,Park, B.,Yun, S.,Moon, J.,Lee, J.I.,Yu, B.,Kyung, K.U. IPC Science and Technology Press 2016 Polymer Vol.99 No.-

Artificial wrinkles have recently been in the spotlight due to their potential use in high-tech applications. A spontaneously wrinkled film can be fabricated from UV-crosslinkable liquid prepolymers. Here, we controlled the wrinkle formation by simply formulating two UV-crosslinkable liquid prepolymers, tetraethylene glycol bis(4-ethenyl-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophenyl) ether (TEGDSt) and tetraethylene glycol diacrylate (TEGDA). The wrinkles were formed from the TEGDSt/TEGDA formulated prepolymer layers containing up to 30 wt% of TEGDA. The wrinkle formation depended upon the rate of photo-crosslinking reaction of the formulated prepolymers. The first order apparent rate constant, k<SUB>app</SUB>, was between ca. 5.7 x 10<SUP>-3</SUP> and 12.2 x 10<SUP>-3</SUP> s<SUP>-1</SUP> for the wrinkle formation. The wrinkle structures were modulated within the k<SUB>app</SUB> mainly due to variation in the extent of shrinkage of the formulated prepolymer layers with the content of TEGDA.

Sphingomonas aestuarii sp. nov., isolated from tidal flat sediment

Roh, S. W.,Kim, K.-H.,Nam, Y.-D.,Chang, H.-W.,Kim, M.-S.,Oh, H.-M.,Bae, J.-W. Microbiology Society 2009 International journal of systematic and evolutiona Vol.59 No.6

<P>A novel bacterium (strain K4(T)) belonging to the genus Sphingomonas was isolated from tidal flat sediment in Korea. Its morphology, physiology, biochemical features and 16S rRNA gene sequence were characterized. Colonies of this strain are yellow in colour and the cells are rod-shaped, exhibiting negative Gram staining. The strain grows at 0-5 % (w/v) NaCl and 20-35 degrees C, with optimal growth occurring at 0 % (w/v) NaCl and 30 degrees C. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that strain K4(T) is associated with the genus Sphingomonas. Within the phylogenetic tree, this novel strain shares a branching point with Sphingomonas asaccharolytica Y-345(T), with which it shares 97.3 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. The polyamine pattern predominantly contains the Sphingomonas-specific triamine sym-homospermidine. Combined analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences, DNA-DNA relatedness, physiological and biochemical test results identified genotypic and phenotypic differences between strain K4(T) and other Sphingomonas species. On the basis of these differentiating features, it is concluded that strain K4(T) (=KCTC 22050(T)=DSM 19475(T)) represents a novel species of the genus Sphingomonas, for which the name Sphingomonas aestuarii sp. nov. is proposed.</P>

박성원(S. W. Park),안석환(S. H. Ahn),손창석(C. S. Son),김성광(S. K. Kim),남기우(K. W. Nam) 대한기계학회 2007 대한기계학회 춘추학술대회 Vol.2007 No.10

The four kinds of Al₂O₃ composite ceramics were prepared using a mixture of 85 wt.% Al₂O₃ (mean size 0.5 μm), 15 wt.% SiC powder with Y₂O₃ as an additive powder (0, 1, 3 and 5 wt.%). The crack-healing strengths were studied as functions of crack-healing temperature and amount of Y₂O₃. The in-situ crack-healing behavior was observed at 1,573 K for 1 h in the air. The heat treated specimen with 3 wt.% of Y₂O₃ showed better crack-healing ability than specimen with 1 or 5 wt.% of Y₂O₃. In case of specimen with 3 wt.% of Y₂O₃, the bending strength of the crack-healed specimen at 1,473 K was recovered to the bending strength of smooth specimen treated at 1573 K. The heat-resistance limit temperature of Al₂O₃ composite ceramics was 1,073 K, 1,373 K, 873 K for the specimen with 1, 3, 5 wt.% of Y₂O₃.
