화학으로 바라보는 생명, 고분자
생명이란 무엇이고, 생명 활동이란 무엇인가?
화학의 관점에서 생명이란, 고분자란?
생명이란 무엇인가?
• It is challenge to define “Life”.
• There is no consensus for a definition of life.
• “Evolution (and natural selection) means changing inheritance, that is, causing
variations in self-reproduction.”

화학의 관점으로 바라보는 생명
• 구성 물질은 무엇인가?
• Water
• Protein
• Fats (or Lipid)
• Hydroxyapatite in bone
• Carbohydrate such as glycogen and glucose
• DNA and RNA
• Inorganic ions such as sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, phosphate
• Gases
• Many cofactors.
• 탄소 고분자는?
• 모든 생명체는 단백질 등으로 구성, 하지만 단백질이 있다고 해서
생명체는 아니다. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life
고분자 공학 시작은?
• Best billiard balls once came exclusively from the
tusks of Asian elephants.
• There were so expensive, that a set of matched ivory
billiard balls (3 balls total) went for around $60.00 in
the 1870's or over $1,200 today.
• Rewind to 1869.
• The game of billiard is quickly growing in popularity
in the classy parlors of New York City.
• $10,000 prize is offered to anyone who can provide a
substitute for the precious material, obtained
through the slaughter of wild elephants.

고분자 공학 시작: 상아 대체재
• First successful substitutes for ivory billiard balls were made with celluloid
reinforced with ground cattle bone
• Celluloid (셀룰로이드) : Nitrocellulose + Camphor
• 물질대사, 이화작용,
동화작용
• 소화, 호흡, 생장
• 비생명적 창발
