Cellulose, chitin, chitosan and hyaluronic acid are well known as polysaccharides. These polysaccharides have many effects on cell growth and differentiation. Cell activation increases with increasing the polysaccharides concentration. In this study, gelatin scaffold containing microorganism fermented cellulose, citrus gel were prepared by using irradiation technique. Physical properties of the scaffolds were investigated as a function of the concentrations of gelatin and citrus gel and the cell attachment, cell morphology and inflammation of the scaffolds also were characterized for regeneration of skin tissue.

건조 생약재의 위생화 수단으로 방사선 조사 기술의 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위하여 감마선 조사 생약의 효능 변화유무를 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 감마선 조사 시료와 비조사 시료가 생체의 산화적 손상을 억제하는 효과를 비교하기 위하여 방사선에 의한 산화적 손상에 대한 효과를 측정하였다. 감마선 조사(10 kGy) 생약재(H-113) 및 비조사 생약재(H-113) 추출물을 처리하여 배양한 사람 림프구에 방사선을 조사한 후, 단세포전기영동(single-cell gel electrophoresis, SCGE; comet assay)을 수행하여 DNA 상해 경감정도를 관찰하였다. 또한 방사선 조사 및 비조사 생약재(H-113) 추출물을 투여한 생쥐에 8 Gy의 감마선을 조사한 후, 간에서 지질과산화 정도를 비교·관찰하였다. 한편 DPPH 라디칼과 hydroxyl 라디칼 소거효과를 시험관내에서 상호 비교하였다. 감마선 조사 생약재(H-113)는 단세포전기영동, 지질과산화, DPPH 및 hydroxyl 라디칼 소거시험에서 비조사 생약재 (H-113)와 유사한 효과를 나타내어 효능 차이가 인정되지 않았다. 이는 생약재의 여러 가지 고유 효능 중 일부의 안정성을 확인한 것으로 생각되며, 이러한 결과를 바탕으로 감마선 조사 생약재의 고유 효능의 안정성에 관한 체계적인 연구결과를 얻는다면 생약재의 위생화 수단으로 감마선 조사 기술의 이용이 실용화될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Concrete is considered to be one of the excellent and versatile shielding material and is widely used for the radiation shielding material. Specially, heavyweight(or high density) concrete is used in counter weights of bascule and lift bridges, but it is generally used in radiation shielding structures and differ from normal weight concrete by having a higher density and special compositions to improve its attenuation properties. Thorough examination and evaluation of heavyweight aggregate sources are necessary to obtain material suitable for the type of shielding required. Therefore, this paper aims to study mechanical properties of heavyweight concrete by using normal cement, natural and heavyweight aggregate.

This study was to investigate 90-day repeated-dose toxicities of 50 kGy irradiated methanol extract powder of red ginseng in ICR mice. The test materials (methanol extract powder of red ginseng with or without 50 kGy irradiation) were administered by gavage to male and female ICR mice at dose levels of 0, 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg/day for 90 days. In the results, no abnormality was observed in mortality, clinical findings, body weight changes, food consumptions, opthalmoscopic findings, necropsy findings and histopathological findings. Although the minor changes in blood and biochemical parameters were observed, they were not dose dependent and not affected by gamma irradiation. In conclusion, 90-day repeated oral dose of the methanol extract powder of red ginseng and 50 kGy irradiated methanol extract powder of red ginseng to ICR mice did not cause apparent toxicological change at the dose of 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg body weight.

This paper describes a detailed investigational performance on the gamma radiation shield effect of heavy concretes that were manufactured by the use of mineral ores produced domestically and which may be possibly applied for the biological shield design. Ten different kinds of mineral ores were collected for use as the aggregates, physical test and chemical analysis for them were carried out to select the aggregate with a better property. Through the experimental investigation on the shielding effect of various concretes with different combination of concrete components such as water-cement and fine-coarse aggregate ratios, it was possible to derive some criteria for the best condition being capable of obtaining the concretes with high density and good uniformity. Data on the shielding-effectiveness of the different concretes were obtained by performing collimated beam experiment using 60Co gamma-ray. Analyzing the shielding-efficiency, shielding-concrete specific gravity and biological shield cost, the optimum condition of yielding the best economic shielding design, with low cost and good spatial distribution to some extent was determined.

The aim of this study analyzed the important level (IL) and understanding level (UL) including the Borich's need for students preparing of the national examination for radiological technologists at online open chatting room. A total of 254 survey were collected from a total of 1,016 students who used open chatting room from December 13 to December 16, 2022. A general characteristics were the age, gender, curriculum (3 or 4 years), grade and area. The IL, UL, learning satisfaction (LS), learning achievement (LA) and intention to continue using (ICU) were analyzed by using the 5 point Likert scale. There was no significant difference the LS, LA, and ICU according to general characteristics (p>0.05). There was a statistically significant difference a total of sixteen subjects based on the t-test results of the response values from the IL and UL (p<0.05). The total of ten subjects with the highest priority in the Locus for Focus models were the Ultrasonography, Human anatomy, Magnetic resonance imaging, Radiation therapy, Cardiovascular and intervention, Computed tomography, Human physiology, Radiographic imaging, Fluroscopic radiography, and Nuclear medicine) that the Borich's need was also the same as the top 10 ranked subjects. The LS (4.23±0.72), LA (4.18±0.73), and ICU (4.15±0.78) for open chatting room were high. This study identified the subjects most needed by college students by the Borich's need analysis. First, it is necessary to provide intensive education on subjects with high scores that are most needed by college students. Second, it is necessary to improve the teaching method for subjects with low need and low level of understanding.

One dimensional Radiometric scanning system was fabricated and tested as a filmless radiographic inspection system, which could be applied to the evaluation of the corrosion and deposits in the pipeline. This system is composed of the single radioactive source of the collimated focusing beam, and single scintillation detector of BGO, and the mechanical scanning system to transport and align the source and detector, and the operating software to automatically control the mechanical scan system. The performance of the system was simulated using GEANT4 software. This system is applied to one specimen having an artificial falw(flat bottom hole) in the pipe and the other specimen with thickness variation. For the inspection by using the radioactive source in the pipeline, it is possible to evaluate the corrosion and deposits in real time and without film.

Purpose : Raise ability cultivation in presence at a sicked business by performance management estimation of device through measurement. Also Learn a technology that measure exact tube voltage, exposure time, output dose. And it is to grasp photofluorography X-ray generator existing circumstances using at hospital. Material & Method : Investigated Photofluorography X-ray generator(inside, outside each 10) of 10 university hospitals using tube voltage, exposure time, output dose measuring instrument. Result : Photofluorography device that tube voltage correctness is incongruent by examination PAE decision came out 3, and at exposure time correctness examination 2 incongruent, Also 3 that calculate coefficient of variation about exposure in repeatability examination of exposure were incongruent. Inappropriate photofluorography device is 5 outside hospital(mobile unit) and the thing in hospital was 3 in 3 kind of efficiency test. It appeared high that photofluorography device outside hospital is more incongruent than thing in hospital. Conclusion : May ready situation that can offer patient medical service of good quality by radiation exposure reduction, image quality administration, retake decrease etc. by keeping performance of Photofluorography device. Therefore, is considered that need on-time efficiency test.
