This study evaluated the effects of gamma ray irradiation on the safety of dried seafood products. Dried salted squid, Engraulis japonica, Hizikia fusiformis, Mytilus coruscus, and Porphyra tenera were gamma-irradiated at doses of 0, 1, 3, and 5 kGy. The total bacterial populations were then enumerated on total plate count agar, and bacteria isolated from the samples were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing. In addition, the isolated strains were inoculated in the products to determine $D_{10}$ values. The total bacterial populations in the dried seafood products ranged from 3.40 to 6.59 log CFU/g, and those of yeasts and molds ranged from 2.21 to 4.56 log CFU/g. The sequence analysis identified Staphylococcus sp. as the most common species in the dried seafood products, except for dried P. tenera. The $D_{10}$ values of the contaminating bacteria were lower than 0.7 kGy, except for Deinococcus sp., which had a value of 1.39 kGy. This study demonstrated that gamma irradiation could be used to improve the safety of dried seafood products.

Four lines (MON810, GA21, NK603, and TC1507)of genetically modified maize(GMM) were recently approved after a safety-assessment by the Korea Food and Drug Administration (KFDA). In this study, five pairs of specific oligonucleotide primers, based on the gene sequences inserted into maize and zein gene as internal standards, were designed and a method using PCR was developed for monitoring GMM and GMM derived foods circulating in the market. MON810 and GA21 were detected in raw materials of feed and food in the Korean market.

This paper presents a theoretical approach for estimation of CBR-value of subbase course and subgrade using a portable pavement dynamic cone penetrometer(PDCP). The PDCP used in this paper was based on a design from South Africa and extensive studies by Kleyn(1982) and more recently by Liveneh and Ishai(1987) and Chua(1988). To date, California Bearing Ratio[CBR] value was studied mainly for application of pavement structural design. This study was initiated to develop a method of obtaining the in situ CBR-values of subbase and subgrade for the structural evaluation of pavements in the swift and inexpensive manner. PDCP tests were implemented at 20 different kinds of soil samples in the lab and test results were analysed by a theoretical approach introduced. The procedure presented provides acceptable and promising results.

액체 누설을 감지하는 센서를 개발하였다. 이 센서는 경보 장치를 포함하며 접착 테이프형태의 박막 센서이다. 센서는 총 4개의 층으로 구성되어 있다. 각 층의 명칭은 접착제층, 베이스 필름층, 기판 필름층, 보호 필름층이다. 감지선의 사용량을 최소화하여 기판 필름층 위에는 총 4개의 선이 있다. 전도선 3개와 저항선 1개이다. 4개의 선들은 기판 필름층에 전도성 은나노 잉크를 그라비어인쇄기를 이용하여 센싱 회로를 인쇄하였으며 이 기술의 이 센서의 가장 큰 특징이다. 누수 발생 시에 저항선과 전도선에 액체가 접촉되어 회로 상에 교차하는 내부저항의 전압 변화를 모니터링하여 누수를 감지하는 방식의 센서이다. 감지선에 전원을 양방향으로 번갈아 인가함으로써 수분의 저항 값 증가 및 양극화를 방지하였다. 그로 인해 기존의 센서에 비해 좀 더 안정적이고 정확한 감지를 할 수 있다. 설치 후 센서가 마모되거나 손상될 시 간단하게 재설치 할 수 있다는 장점도 있다. 액체 누설 후에도 별도의 건조시간이 필요하지 않다. 표면에 남아있는 액체를 제거하여 즉시 재사용하는 것이 가능하다. 액체누설 감지 시스템은 액체누설 감지 필름 센서를 포함하며, 표시부와 경고음 발생부 등 전체를 제어한다. 표시부의 누설 위치 표시 단위는 미터(m)이며 최소 0.1 m 단위까지 표시한다. 이 액체누설 감지 시스템을 이용하여 누설 위치 감지 실험 및 액체별 누설 위치 감지 실험을 진행하였다.

Inorganic elemental content of bottom ash generated from municipal solid waste incinerator was determined by neutron activation analysis. Bottom ash samples were collected monthly from incinerator located in city D, strained out by the 5 mm sieve, dried by oven and pulverized by agate mortar. The samples were irradiated at NAA #1 irradiation hole in HANARO research reactor of Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute and the irradiated samples were measured by HPGe-gamma-ray spectrometer. From the activity of measured nuclides, 33 elements including As, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Sb and Zn were determined applying activity creation formula and nuclear data. The quality control was conducted by simultaneous analysis with NIST standard reference materials.

Abiotic stress conditions such as cold, drought, and salinity trigger physiological and morphological changes and yield loss in plants. Hence, plants adapt to adverse environments by developing tolerance through complex regulation of genes related to various metabolic processes. This study was conducted to construct a coexpression network for multidirectional analysis of salt-stress response genes in Brassica rapa (Chinese cabbage). To construct the coexpression network, we collected KBGP-24K microarray data from the B. rapa EST and microarray database (BrEMD) and performed time-based expression analyses of B. rapa plants. The constructed coexpression network model showed 1,853 nodes, 5,740 edges, and 142 connected components (correlation coefficient > 0.85). On the basis of the significantly expressed genes in the network, we concluded that the development of salt tolerance is closely related to the activation of $Na^+$ transport by reactive oxygen species signaling and the accumulation of proline in Chinese cabbage.

저항성능 측면에서 한국 어선선형의 특성을 파악하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 한국과 일본에서 건조되어진 대표적인 어선을 한 척씩 선정하여 두 어선의 선형적 특성을 비교하였다. 또한 한국 어선의 선형적 특성들, 즉 일부 대표적인 선형요소들과 이를 제외한 기타의 국부적 선형특성들을 일본어선의 선형을 참고로 보정함으로써 우리나라 어선들의 저항성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안에 대하여 연구하였다. 한국어선과 일본어선은 해양환경과 어업의 종류가 다를 뿐만 아니라 관습적인 이유 등으로 선형의 차이가 있게 되며, 이것은 한국 어선이 일본 어선에 비하여 같은 배수량을 가지더라도 배 길이가 짧은 반면 폭이 넓으며 흘수가 얕은 대표적인 선형요소들의 차이로 확인할 수 있다. 이러한 차이를 고려하여, 일본어선들에 대한 유효마력 추정프로그램을 한국어선들에 맞게 보정.개발하는 과정을 통하여 양국 어선의 저항성능 차이를 확인할 수 있었으며, 보정된 프로그램을 이용하여 연구대상의 한국어선에 대한 저항저감효과를 줄 수 있는 선형요소들을 도출함으로써 선형요소들의 변화에 따른 저항성능 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 선형요소들의 보정에도 불구하고 한국어선의 저항성능은 여전히 일본어선의 그것보다 떨어짐을 확인하여, 본 연구에서는 대표적인 선형요소들뿐만 아니라 국부적 선형특성 즉, 선수부에서 차인선(chine line) 경사도, 용골의 형상, 선미길이(용골 끝에서 선미단까지의 거리)를 각각 보정해 봄으로써 보다 더 큰 저항성능의 개선효과를 확인하였다. 본 연구결과는 앞으로 저항성능이 우수하면서도 실용 가능한 개량된 한국 어선선형의 개발에 기초적인 자료로서 활용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Conventional hot-air oven-drying method takes at least four hours to determine the moisture content of wood sample and this method is not always acceptable to wood industry. In this study samples of six different specifications from Paulownia coreana, Pinus densiflora and Quercus acutissima were dried in domestic microwave oven to their oven dry weights to investigate the possibility of rapid moisture content determination technique using microwave-oven drying method. Continuous heating time, cooling time and intermittent heating time were determined by each species and sample specifications. Temperatures of surface and center of samples were also measured during drying. Oven-drying times were reduced to 1/7~1/10 of conventional hot-air oven-drying method. Therefore microwave heating and drying techniques appear attractive for wood industry as a rapid moisture content determination method.

Tissue engineering is a research field for artificial substitutes to improve or replace biological functions. Scaffolds play a important role in tissue engineering. Scaffold porosity and pore size provide adequate space, nutrient transportation and cell penetration throughout the scaffold structure. Scaffold structure is directly related to fabrication methods. This review will introduce the current technique of 3D scaffold fabrication for tissue engineering. The conventional technique for scaffold fabrication includes salt leaching, gas foaming, fiber bonding, phase seperation, melt moulding, and freeze drying. These conventional scaffold fabrication has the limitations of cell penetration and interconnectivity. In this paper, we will present the solid freeform fabrication (SFF) such as stereolithography (SLA), selective laser sintering (SLS), and fused deposition modeling (FDM), and 3D printing (3DP).

For the removal of residual pesticides in ginseng extracts, we estabilished the removal process using pilot plant system, the characteristic components of ginseng maintains only. According to the agricultural chemical removal process, we monitored residual pesticides of 155 species, compraing the characteristic components of ginseng. The process of 4 types of agricultural chemical removal process compared to the control test was appeared that the residual pesticides were eliminated. As results above, the most efficient method of the possibility of raising the removal ratio of the agricultural chemical construction process was dried process of hexane after dipping and also remaining quality of the hexane appeared lowly. Besides, the removal process had an effected on the ginsenocide os ginseng, only the residual pesticides will be able to remove.
