We determined the optical constants of organic light emitting material of Alq$_3$ in a spectral range between 1.5 and 6 eV using the physical model introduced by Forouhi and Bloomer［Phys. Rev. B 34, pp. 7018-7026, 1986.］. The initial parameters of $A_i,\;B_i,\;C_i$ of Forouhi-Bloomer dispersion relations were determined from the absorption peaks and widths of absorption spectra of the Alq$_3$ film. The refractive index of substrate, a fused silica, is derived from the Sellmeier equation with the measured transmittance and reflectance spectra. Then, the complex refractive index and thickness of the Alq$_3$ film were calculated by use of a nonlinear least square fitting program with the Forouhi-Bloomer dispersion relation and the measured transmittance and reflectance spectra.

This study covers the investigation of the actual condition in the workplace to produce plastics products using synthetic resins and the investigation on the trends amount of the domestic production of thermoplastic resins. To analyze the monomers included in thermoplastic resins frequently used in the workplace, we analyzed thermal characteristics for test compounds using thermogravimetric analysis and did the qualitative analysis using Pyrolyzer GC-MSD & TDS GC-MSD. And then we classified the health hazard of monomers based on GHS classification criteria using information toxicity & carcinogenicity. The number of the workplace to produce plastics products among all domestic manufacturers of 73,884 was 4,391 (5.94%). The number of workers to produce plastics products among all workers of 2,522,750 in all domestic manufacturers was 104,971 (4.16%). The amount of production per year for thermoplastic resins is in the order of PP, HDPE, LDPE, PVC, ABS, PS and such compounds was producing over 1 Million ton per year each. The classification result based on GHS classification criteria for 22 main compounds included thermoplastic resins says 2 compounds of acrylonitrile, naphthalene are in Acute oral category 3 and benzene is in Acute dermal category 1. The classification results of health hazard of carcinogenicity based on IARC & ACGIH carcinogen classification says 2 compounds of benzene, vinyl chloride are in category 1A (known to be human carcinogens).

The sweetpotatoes (Ipomoea batatas) generate adventitious roots (ARs) from cut stems that develop into storage roots and make for an important means of propagation. However, few studies have investigated the hormones involved in AR development in sweetpotato. In this study, the expression patterns of hormone-related genes involved in AR formation were identified using the transcriptome data. RNA-seq data from stems grown for 0 and 3 days after cutting were analyzed. In addition, hormone-related genes were identified among differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and filtered genes, and cluster analysis was used to characterize expression patterns by function. Most hormone-related regulated genes expressed 3 days after growing the cut stems were abscisic acid (ABA)-related genes, followed by ethylene- and auxin-related genes. For ABA, the biosynthesis genes (including genes annotated to NINE-CIS-EPOXYCAROTENOID DIOXYGENASE 3 (NCED3)) and signal transduction and perception genes (including genes annotated to PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE 2Cs (PP2Cs)) tended to decrease. Expression patterns of auxin- and ethylene-related genes differed by function. These results suggest that ABA, auxin, and ethylene genes are involved in AR formation and that they may be regulated in a hormone function-dependent manner. These results contribute to the identification of hormone functions during AR formation and may contribute to understanding the mechanism of AR formation in the sweetpotato.

티타늄 알루미나이드 합금은 이들의 강도나 고온 특성 때문에 초음속 비행기의 구조물질이나 수소를 연료로 사용하는 비행기의 엔진물질로 각광받고 있다. 그러나 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금들은 이들이 갖는 규칙적인 미세구조로 인하여 실온에서 낮은 연성을 나타내는 단점이 있다. 실온에서 낮은 연성을 갖는 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금의 단점은 텅스텐, 물리브덴, 니오비움, 탄타륨, 바나디움 등의 베타 안정화 물질들을 첨가함으로서 어느정도 극복되고 있다. 따라서 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금이 초음속 비행기의 구조 물질이나 수소를 사용하는 엔진 물질로 사용되기 위해서는 이 물질들의 산화연구가 필수적이다. 지금까지 티타늄의 산화연구에서 알루미늄이나 니오비움의 역할에 대해서는 여러 연구자들이 연구를 한 바 있다. Chaze와 Coddet는 알루미늄이 티타늄에서 산소의 용해도를 감소시키고, Chen과 Rosa는 니오비움이 티타늄에서 산화물 형성율을 낮춘다는 것을 각각 알아냈다. 그러나 지금까지 티타늄 알루미나이드의 산화연구는 충분하지 못했다. 지금까지 티타늄 알루미나이드의 산화연구에서 밝혀진 산화운동학의 내용은 가열온도와 가열시간에 따라 크게 다른 두 개 혹은 그 이상의 산화물을 갖는다는 것이다. 본 연구의 목적은 여러 가지 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금의 산화특성을 밝히는 것이다. 이를 위하여 첫 번째 실험은 실온 공기 중에서 자연적으로 산화된 여러 가지 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금들($\alpha$2,$\beta$,${\gamma}$)을 초고진공($\leq$10-11Torr)속에 넣고, 시료의 온도를 실온에서 100$0^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키면서 AES(Auger Electron Spectroscopy)와 ISS(Ion Scattering Spectroscopy)를 사용하여 각각의 온도에서 여러 가지 시료들의 표면조성을 조사했다. 두 번째 실험은 티타늄 알루미나이드 시료를 고순도 공기(hydrocarbon$\leq$0.1^g , pp m) 중에서 각각 $600^{\circ}C$에서 100$0^{\circ}C$까지 가열하여 산화시켰다. 이 시료의 산화도는 각각의 가열온도에서 가열시간을 변하시키면서 TGA(Thermogravimetric Apparatus)로 측정했다. 실온 공기중에서 자연적으로 산화된 여러 가지 티타늄 알루미나이드 합금들을 초고진공속에 넣어 100$0^{\circ}C$까지 가열한 실험에서는 이들 시료에 포함된 알루미늄의 양에 따라서 표면 조성이 크게 다른 것을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 고순도 공기 중에서 100$0^{\circ}C$까지 가열하여 산화시킨 티타늄 알루미나이드 산화물의 산화기구는 명백한 3단계 포물선 산화의 특성을 나타냈다.

Various antimicrobial drug screen tests have been used in order to ensure food safety. However, the conventional screen tests, the Swab Test on Premises(STOP, USA), the Calf Antibiotic and Sulfa Test(CAST, USA) and the European Economic Community 4-plate Test(FPT, EU) are not sufficiently rapid or sensitive enough to detect low levels of sulfa drugs in meat. We developed a new screen test kit for the determination of the antimicrobial residues in meat called the Bacillus megaterium Disk Assay(BmDA). A comparison of BmDA with the older screen tests showed BmDA was as good as the older ones with several advantages. The new test kit is faster-it can be read in 4∼6 hours instead of 16∼18 hours. Moreover, BmDA can discriminate sulfa drugs from other antimicrobial drugs because p-aminobenzoic acid countacts the inhibiting action of sulfa drugs. Minimum detectable levels of sulfa drugs were significantly improved at the lever of 0.025*0.1 pp, compared with the level of 1.0 ppm in FPT. A comparison of BmDA with the older screen tests in HPLC confirmed meat samples exceeded the Korean tolerance value of 0.1 ppm showed BmDA was the most sensitive in the microbiological screen tests. As the microbiological screen tests have already known, a person familiar with simple laboratory techniques should have no difficulty in using it to detect antimicrobial residues in meat. This would be a simple, economic method of antimicrobial residues detection which might be succesfully used by many laboratories.

Decoys for automatic jigging machines, the body part of a squid hook, have been developed in small and existing sizes in consideration of squid food, color blindness, and retinomotor responses and in utilization of pearl pigment, PP of high transparency, and combined mixture. In comparison of the developed silver-white decoy and existing decoys, the optical characteristics were examined, and the fishing performance of small size silver-white squid hooks was assessed in application of 4 fishing boats with the squid automatic jigging machine and metal halide fishing lamp in July, 2012. The luminances of the three squid hook colors-green, dark green and silver-white-increased as the intensity of illumination increased. Among these, the increase of silver-white was particularly distinguished. As to the average contrast of squid hooks, that of silver-white was 10.33, which was the highest, and then green 1.86 and dark green -0.10 in the order. As to the fishing performance of the silver-white hook, that of the 202 Geumyeong-ho and 101Yongjin-ho which caught squids were similar to that of the existing green hook and was relatively low in the case of the Dongbu-ho. However, that of the Haengbok-ho which caught relatively small squids whose average length was 19.9cm and installed silver-white hook in all automatic jigging machines was significantly excellent. In order to enhance the fishing performance of small size silver-white hooks, therefore, it would be effective to install in every automatic jigging machines of fishing boat and to start fishing before July by which small squids are caught.

Our objectives in this experiment were to study the effects of oils that are high in contents of unsaturated fatty acids (olive, flaxseed, and perilla oils) and pyroligneous liquor on plasma lipid concentrations in mice. Male ICR-mouse (n=10 per group) were fed powdered form diets containing oil and pyroligneous liquor for 60 days. The cholesterol level of the PP group ($96.71{\pm}25.75$ $mg/d{\ell}$) was lower than that of the COW group ($133.56{\pm}21.53$ $mg/d{\ell}$). Levels of triglyceride of COP, CFP, and CPP groups were $121.10{\pm}50.79$ $mg/d{\ell}$, $77.80{\pm}38.58$ $mg/d{\ell}$, and $92.40{\pm}33.04$ $mg/d{\ell}$, respectively (p<0.05). The dietary addition of olive oil increased the plasma lsevels of cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol. On the other hand, the dietary addition of flaxseed oil and pyroligneous liquor increased the plasma level of HDL-cholesterol and decreased the plasma levels of LDL-cholesterol and triglyceride compared with those of the control group. Further, the dietary addition of perilla oil decreased plasma triglyceride but increased HDL-cholesterol. The decrease in the cholesterol level was much higher in the CFP group. In conclusion, the dietary addition of long-term pyroligneous liquor effectively decreased the plasma levels of cholesterol and triglyceride and increased the plasma level of HDL-cholesterol. The additional dietary administration of flaxseed and perilla oils increased the effect of pyroligneous liquor.

This study evaluated spalling and internal temperature distribution after elevated temperatures test for high strength concrete ($f_{ck}=60\;MPa$) column member with various polypropylene fiber volume fractions. The ISO-834 time-temperature curve was used for measurement of fire resistance properties. As the result of test, average internal temperature results indicated to low temperature in increased polypropylene fiber volume fraction. But, the highest internal temperature results show that does not difference in proportion of polypropylene fiber volume fractions.

This study evaluated fire resistance performance for hybrid (polypropylene+steel) fiber reinforced high strength concrete column. Full-size columns were constructed and tested with or without fibers using ISO-834 fire curve. As the result of test, Control specimen occurred serious spalling and indicated rapidly internal temperature increasing. Specimen with polypropylene fiber occurred not spalling but steady internal temperature increasing. Specimen with hybrid fiber occurred not spalling as well as does not propagated temperature distribution. Therefore, hybrid fiber reinforced column specimen indicated a good fire resistance performance than other cases.
