本研究是以數位科技改良生物實驗上的傳統比色法，並探討中國樹蟾及台北樹蛙的變色行為。有些兩棲類有變色行為，這是眾所皆知的現象，過去一向採用比色法判斷生物體的體色變化；然而，以人眼去測定色差，會有相當大的主觀誤差。本研究及是探討以數位科技量化並比較實驗對象的變色情形。在研究過程中，用電腦量化數位相機所拍攝的影像，以像素的方式呈現出來，得以取的準確且客觀的實驗數據，並加以解析，也經由此一實驗方式，交叉比較中國樹蟾及台北樹蛙在不同環境和不同時間下的變色情形。結果顯示：樹蛙變色和環境顏色及時間有密切關係，且在短時間內以數位量化的方式解析其變色行為的方法極為可行。The purpose of this study is to investigate the color variation behavior of tree frogs using an image processing technology. It is known that some of the amphibians have the ability to change their skin color under different circumstances. In the past, a conventional “color comparison” method was frequently used whenever it comes to analyzing the color variation of organisms. However, it is realized that evaluation of color difference by human eyes is extremely unreliable. An advanced image processing technology is thus suggested to quantify the variation of skin color of tree frogs under different conditions in this experiment. Accurate quantification can be determined from the pixel number of exhibited digital images during the experiment. The color variation of different species of frogs (Hyla chinensis & Rhacophorus taipeianus) is also compared under different parameters. It is found that the color variation of tree frogs is closely related to the color of back ground as well as time. The proposed digital quantification technique has been successfully demonstrated to be an effective method for analyzing the color variation of frogs within a very short time.

氣候暖化是一個地球目前正面臨的一大議題，造成地球暖化的主要原因是長期大量使用的化石性燃料所產生的二氧化碳等溫室氣體因此尋找一個替代性的能源是一個當今十分重要的問題。本研究將可見光光觸媒Bi20TiO32、CuFeO2粉體及鐵絲網懸浮於內照式光觸媒觸媒反應器內，當受激發之光觸媒粉體與鐵絲網發生碰撞，則可使光生電子-電洞經金屬-半導體異相介面傳遞至另一光觸媒之活性位置，藉此有效地分離光生電子-電洞而提高光觸媒水分解之產氫速率。本研究發現，利用此一光生電子-電洞傳遞途徑，在293 K下CuFeO2之光觸媒活性可達8.38 mL H2/min‧g。然而，本研究中光觸媒水分解之產氫速率在沒有氣體壓縮器的協助下，未能有效地驅動質子交換膜燃料電池。本研究亦探討質子交換膜燃料電池之最佳化條件，發現在333 K下，以100 mL/min純氫作為進料，可使質子交換膜燃料電池在0.6 V之操作電壓下，輸出0.78 W之電能。在未來，將本研究發展之光觸媒反應系統與質子交換膜燃料電池結合成光電能轉換系統，則可能夠在日常生活中有效地被運用。

2001、2002 年監測資料被用以探討風場、時間、地形對臭氧傳輸影響。完成沿海地區與盆地內各二次採樣分析，探討各污染物與風場之垂直變化，及地面臭氧分布與風場變化。結果顯示各月份與全年之日間，其相對濕度與O3 相關度最高，日照次之。提高濕度，最能抑制[O3]。夜間NO 與O3 的相關度最高，濕度次之。臭氧事件日時：(1).11:00 即可產生高臭氧，(2).沿海地區在臭氧事件日仍保持低[O3]， (3).盆地效應改變風場，使近山地區[O3]居高不下，(4).因處O3 不斷被吹入，沿海地區傍晚時之[O3]下降速度減緩。臭氧事件日之O3 生成速率R 與消失速率常數L 被求出，其中14:00 後之R 與L 值均由正值轉負值，顯示大氣反應型式明顯轉變。R 與L 值在14:00∼15:00 間最小，係因O3 反應生成光化學煙霧所致。16:00 後另一低R 與L 值，則可能導因O3 與微粒或水份反應。分析結果顯示：(1).污染物會隨高程而略增，最高濃度在300∼500 m 處，(2).各高程大氣均可分析出73 種主要HC，其隨高度之分布被繪出與探討，(3).低層大氣會有較多低分子量HC，而高層大氣則有較多高分子量HC。結果亦顯示： (1).盆地內[O3]、[NO]與[NO2]不僅較沿海地區高，且於各高程之變動亦較大，(2).沿海地區THC、烷、烯類均較高，且隨高程增加而增高，但在盆地內則相反，(3).二地區各高程之鹵化物、芳香族、氧化物與其他有機物之平均濃度相近，但沿海地區之濃度變動較大。探討O3 之二傳輸現象獲知：(1).風吹向盆地內時，[O3]隨風向遞增，R 與L 會由12:00 之正值，轉為14:00 之負值；(2).風由盆地內外吹時，[O3] 隨風向遞減，R 與L 值提前於12:00 即為–202.561 與–1.621，但14:00 時R 與L 值增大為–76.411 與0.244， (3).風向並非決定[O3]的主要因素，地形與環境因素才是。實驗結果證實：(1).不同HC 會影響O3 之生成與消失，(2).改變[NO]o 對[O3]影響不大，但高[NO]會使得[O3]下降略緩，(3).降低HC 與[NOx]雖可使 [O3]略降，但提高濕度最能抑制[O3]，(4).在O3 的衰減量上，[O3]隨濕度增加而快速降低，但衰減率則隨[O3]o 的增加而降低。一個臭氧之統計模式被建立，臭氧與水反應速率常數與速率式也被求出。 The monitoring data were used to investigate the effect of surface wind, time, and terrain on the transformation of ozone. The sampling and the analysis in the coastal and in Taichung basin were completed. The vertical distribution of O3, NOX and HC and the different altitude wind were investigated. The contour of O3 and surface wind with 3D map were plotted. The results show that the correlation behaves relativity of relative humidity with ozone is the best, and solar radiation is the next. Enhancing environmental moisture can efficiently decrease ozone concentration. In each ozone event day are: (1) the high [O3] always starts from 11:00, (2) the ozone concentration on the coastal is always low due to the high humidity, (3) the high [O3] in the east of the basin is due to the basin effect which causes changes the surface wind, and (4) in the evening, the descend rate of [O3] in the coastal area is lower because ozone blows into the coastal area. The formation rate (R) and disappear rate constant (L) of the ozone event day were obtained. The values of R and L change from plus to minus before 14:00. The values of R and L are lower at 14:00∼15:00 due to the photochemical smog formation. And another lower R and L value before 16:00 may be due to ozone react with particle or water. The results of analysis indicate that: (1) the concentration increases with increasing altitude, and the maximum is at 300∼500 m height, (2) 73 kinds of hydrocarbons were identified, and the concentration variation with altitude was also investigated, and (3) most of low molecular weight HC are at lower altitude, otherwise high molecular weight HC are at higher altitude. The results also show that: (1) [O3], [NO], and [NO2] on the basin are not only lower than on the coastal, but also their variability of concentration are big, (2) THC, paraffins, and olefins on the coastal are higher than on the basin, and the concentrations increase with increasing altitude on the coastal, but on the basin is decreasing, (3) the average concentrations of halides, aromatics, oxides, and others are similar on both area, but concentration variability on the coastal is obvious. Two types of O3 transformation was investigated, the phenomenon indicts that: (1) when wind blew into the basin, [O3] increased with wind direction. The value of R and L change from positive (12:00) to negative (14:00); (2) when wind blew out of the basin, [O3] decreased with wind direction. The more small value of R (−202.561) and L (−1.621) appeared at 12:00 earlier. But the value of R and L will become bigger to –76.411 and 0.244; (3) ozone concentration does not just dependent on wind direction., topography and surrounding conditionsa are more important effect. The experimental results show that: (1) ozone formation or disappearance depends on different HC, (2) the effect 2 of [NO]o is small for ozone photochemical reaction, but [O3] decreases with increasing [NO], (3) the descend rate of O3 depends on high humidity more than different kinds of HC or [NO], and (4) the descend amount of ozone increases with increasing humidity strongly, and the descend rate of ozone decreases with enhancing [O3]o. A statistical model was developed. The reaction rate and rate constant of ozone reaction with water were also obtained.

關於平面上若干點的集中度之定義，一直很少有人予以仔細的探討，因為判別的方法有很多種。本研究是以平面上三點所構成的三角形之三頂點作討論，分別以三角形的面積、周長，內心、外心和重心至三頂點距離，三點的標準差及平均差的概念，作為不同的判別方式，並以動態幾何化版ＧＳＰ模擬不同的判斷方法做為研究，在利用統計學上的方法，找出哪一種定義方式最為適合、誤差最少的判斷方法。There are many ways to determine the centralness of three dots on a plane; however, no definition study has been applied. In this study, we focus our interests on the entralness of three vertices of a triangle formed from three dots on a plane. Various methods such as the relationship of area, and the distance of the triangle to the centralness of three dots, the distance from the interior point, exterior point, the barycenter to the vertices of triangle, and the standard error and differences average obtained from three dots were determined with a dynamic geometry software GSP, and a statistic method was used to find a least error way to determine the centralness of three dots on a plane.

與傳統的鏡頭比較起來，廣角鏡頭可取得較大範圍的影像，所以廣泛地運用在很多地方，例如倒車攝影機、內視鏡、防盜警眼等，但是其影像會有很大的變形失真，容易造成人類眼睛的錯覺與誤判。本篇研究以倒車攝影機為例，使用了多項式函數來校正其影像的變形與失真，從程式實作的校正結果看來，我們的方法之效果還不錯，相信同樣的模式可用來校正其他使用廣角鏡頭的儀器設備之變形影像。 Compared with the traditional lens, wide-angle lens can make images of larger range, so they are widely used in a lot of places, such as move backward cine-cameras, laparoscopes, and burglarproof eyes. The drawback is that the images distort a lot and may cause the illusion to human eyes and lead to erroneous judgments. This reserch takes the backward cine-camera as example and utilizes multinomial function to correct the deformation and distortion of the image. The results show that the method we use are quite effective and the model can be applied to other equipment with wide-angle lens.

近幾年來，蠶繭彩色化已引起廣泛的注意，日本與中國大陸紛紛投入此研究領域。我們用食用色素、酸性染料和活體染色劑中性紅等色素水溶液，以沾附於桑葉餵食、浸泡蠶體、注射入蠶體血腔等方法，使白色繭品系的家蠶生產出多種顏色的彩色蠶繭，其中以附於桑葉餵食最有效率，我們就此法找出投與色素的有效期間，可以比日本、中國的方法更節省色素。同法處理黃色品系的家蠶則產生黃色與所加色素的混合色蠶繭。由於這樣得到的彩色蠶繭放久了都會褪色，我們試用奈米色素餵食家蠶所得彩色蠶繭，與一般食用色素所製成的彩色蠶繭比較，發現對各種光照、清潔劑清洗等處理，用奈米色素所得蠶繭明顯較用一般食用色素所得蠶繭不易褪色。這樣用奈米色素生產的彩色蠶繭，因為解決了褪色的問題而更具有潛在的產業價值。To make silkworm cocoons with different colors has received a great attention recently. Japan and China have invested great resources in this field of the study. In order to let white cocoon silkworms produce cocoons of different colors, we used the aqueous solutions of food dyes, acid dyes and neutral red, and fed the worms with mulberry leaves immersed with such aqueous solutions, or directly soaked or injected them with the solutions. We found that using mulberry leaves immersed in the dye solutions was the best approach. We improved this approach by finding a critical, effective time of applying dyes. It saved the dyes and labor than those of Japan and China. We also found that yellow cocoon silkworms produced yellow and mixing colored cocoons by the mulberry leaf feeding method with the same dyes. Because all colors of the cocoons mentioned above faded easily, we furthermore tested nano-dye and found that colors of the cocoons had better resistant to fading away in washing with detergents under various types and intensities of light illumination. This result suggested that nano-dye has a potential in solving the fading problem of the colored cocoons.

細胞脂肪分化是造成肥胖、骨質疏鬆、和糖尿病的重要前置因素。我們若要維持良好身材又想省去減肥藥的問題，那麼我們必須了解造成脂肪化的原因，才可能擁有好的預防之道。利用人類骨髓間質細胞可以分化成骨質與脂肪等細胞的特性，我們研究氧化壓力對間質細胞\r Ras基因轉換表現後骨質與脂肪分化的影響。結果發現以添加超氧根 (O2-，l5nM)形成氧化壓力，可促進正常Ras基因表現的間質細胞朝骨質分化;相反地，超氧根會促進\r Ras基因突變而不表現的細胞，朝向脂肪分化的現象。進一步研究其作可原理，發現氧化壓力可促進 RaS蛋白質啟動細胞外訊息活化酵素(ERK)，接著驅動骨質轉錄因子(CBFA1)表現，再到骨鈣蛋白質與骨結節形成。而抗氧化酵素(超氧根轉化酵素;SOD,5OOU/ml)的作用，可以抑制正常Ras基因細胞氧化壓力下骨質分化的進行;但不能防止氧化壓力促進Ras基因突變細胞，朝向脂肪分化的作用。總結而言:Ras基因的表現與否，是決定脂肪分化的關鍵切換點;也是影響氧化壓力對間質細胞朝骨質分化的樞紐。這種基因與氧化壓力互動影響骨質與脂肪分化的剖析，將有助於提醒人們:使用抗氧化劑來調節抗衰老、肥胖、和美容時，必須是在不同情況和不同基因體質的人，有所不同。 \r Human\r mesenchymal stem cells are able to differentiate into bone, muscle, cartilage or\r fat tissues. Our preliminary study with human mesenchymal cell line (HS-5) showed\r that HS-5 cells could differentiate to bone, cartilage and muscle but not fat cells\r as determined by histochemical staining of phenotypes. We have further studied the\r influence of oxidative stress on the switch between bone and fat cell differentiation.\r Results showed that oxidative stress started with exogenous superoxide, produced\r by the interaction of xanthine oxidase and hypoxanthine, promoted the differentiation\r of osteogenic lineage showing expression of osteocalcin and bone nodule formations.\r The mechanism was investigated and superoxide was found to induce ERK (extracellular\r regulated signal kinase) activation; and then the expression of osteogenic specific\r transcriptional factor (CBFA1). A plasmid containing ras-mutant (Ser 17 Asn) which\r can inactivate the expression of ERK was transfected into the HS-5 cells for studying\r the influence of oxidative stress on ras-mutated mesenchymal cells. Surprisingly,\r it was found that oxidative stress did not promote osteogenesis but it enhanced\r adipogenesis from the ras-mutated HS-5 cells. Further studies indicated that superoxide\r neither induced ERK activation nor CBFA1 expression, but it did enhance expression\r of adipogenic specific transcriptional factor (C/EBPα) and lipoprotein lipase in\r the ras-mutated mesenchvmal cells. Taken together, the study model to induce the\r bone cell differentiation from human mesenchymal stem cells may be employed to make\r bone cells for tissue engineering.

花青素具抗氧化的能力，我們想了解植物生長時，可見光中不同色光照射與花青素生成多寡是否有關，所以本實驗以不同波長的LED照射紫莖蘿蔔嬰、紫高麗菜芽、紅鳳菜，探討花青素含量與色光的關係。利用花青素具有抗氧化的特性，以碘滴定和自製鐵粉片生鏽面積的方法，檢測含花青素水溶液的抗氧化力，推論花青素的含量。結果發現：可見光的波長愈短，植物抗氧化能力愈好，因此推論紫光照射，可增加植物花青素量。而在不同光照強度影響花青素含量實驗結果發現：各種色光距離愈近，抗氧化能力愈好，花青素愈多，但紫光照射芽菜距離少於15公分時，抗氧化力轉差，推論若短波紫光能量太強，會導致破壞，不利花青素生成。

塑膠一向被認為絕緣體。但Heeger，MacDiarmid，以及Shirakawa證實，塑膠可以被改製成電的良導體。這須在高分子合成的過程中，使碳鏈呈現單、雙鍵交錯排列情形。此外，高分子也須加以摻雜(doped)，換言之，電子必須在氧化過程中被移除或在還原過程中被加進聚合物。電子移除所留下的電洞，或新加進的電子則可自由在分子鏈上移動，形成導電性。我們所要製備的導電高分子二次電池就是由這個原理完成的。所謂的二次電池(Secondary Cell)簡單的定義就是「可反覆充電、放電，循環使用的電池」，我們將會將其與市售電池比較，並改良出合適商品化的高分子二次電池。我們將以聚苯胺做為我們電池的正極，並用鋅片(原本我們要用鋰金屬的，但其再空氣中即易氧化，因此改採鋅)做為負極，製成一聚苯胺二次電池。The plastics is thought to be a insulator, but Heeger, MacDiarmid, and Shirakawa had proved that conductivity of plastics can be improved by doping other media. The conjugated polymers such as polyacetylene、polyaniline have the interlaced single-double bonds that electrons can move from one side to another side caused the production of electric currents. The purpose of this study is try to study the application of the conjugated polymer polyaniline to make a secondary battery. First, we use the chemical and electrochemical method to compose the polyaniline. Then we test the conductivity of the produced polyaniline and test the current and electrical potential of the polymer battery. The battery that we made from our laboratory has the electric potential about 0.5 volts and the electric current is greater than 50 microamperes. Finally, we also try to use the lithium as cathode to improve the performance of the polyaniline battery.
