The relationship between mercury level of hair and mental retardation was investigated. The 297 subjects with mental retardation were drawn from two schools providing special educational services, one, consisted of children living in an orphan home, another, children with parents. The 117 centre] subjects were drawn from whom had got average or above average academic achivement in a regular elementary school. Hair sample were taken from the nape of the neck and the mercury analysis was carried out on an atomic absorption spectrophotometer(IL 551). There was no relationship between mercury contents and age, and there was a statistically significant difference in mercury contents between male and female in the mentally retarded children living with parents. Children in the retarded group had significantly higher mercury contents compared with control group except the female group with parents. Also, the mercury levels in the retarded group living in an orphan home were significantly higher than that of the retarded group with parents. The concomitant diseases were Down's syndrome, epilepsy, cerebral palsy and autism. There were statistically significant differences in hair mercury levels in the cases of accompanying Down's syndrome and cerebral palsy in male and Down's syndrome and autism in female compared with the control group of the same sex. The most accompanying handicap was speech disturbance(40.7%) and the others were crippled, emotional disturbance etc. The percentages of double handicap were 66.7% among 6 persons exceeding 6ppm of their hair mercury contents. 10.4% among $3{\sim}6$ ppm and 15.7% among the group of 3ppm or less. The findings of this study suggest that the more opportunities of exposure to mercury in mentally retarded children may have occurred, so it can not be excluded the possibility of mercury as a contributing factor to mental retardation. Therefore, the causal relationship between mercury levels and mental retardation should be established through the examinations about their living environments, dietary pattern, eating habit etc.

LCD는 비발광형 소자이므로 배면광이 필요하다. 현재의 LCD 배면광용 냉음극 형광램프는 전기-광학적 특성을 좋게 하기 위하여 수은방전을 사용한다. 그러나 수은의 이용은 외부 온도에 따라 특성이 변하는 결점과 환경 문제가 있다. 이 결점을 보완하기 위하여 원통방전형, 미세방전형 그리고 평면방전형 등 세가지 방식의 무수은 램프가 개발되어 왔다. 원통 방전형 무수은 램프는 수은 대신 Xe을 사용한다. Xe 방전이 수축되는 것을 막기 위하여 한쪽 전극은 외벽에 코일형태로 감아서 사용한다. 그리고 코일형태의 전극의 권선 간격을 조절하여 균일한 방전을 얻는다. 이 형태는 무수은 냉음극 형광램프의 두배의 광속을 얻을 수가 있다. 미세방전형 무수은 램프는 두 개의 절연체로 절연되 금속 전극사이의 방전공간에 수많은 미세방전을 일으켜 발광시킨다. 이 방식은 대향 방전구조와 면 방전구조의 두가지가 있다. 이 방식은 전극이 유전체로 둘러쌓여 있으므로 수명이 높다. 새로운 평면방전형 무수은 램프를 개발하였다. 이 램프는 두 개의 유리평판 사이에 방전공간을 만들고 한쪽 유리면의 양쪽 가장자리에 두 개의 전극을 설치하여 면방전을 유도한다. 양쪽 유리면에는 삼원색 형광체를 도포하고 Xe을 봉입하여 Xe의 진공자외선으로 형광체를 발광시킨다. 이 램프는 전극이 유전체로 덮혀있어 수명이 길다. 실험결과 기체압력 6.7[kPa], 구동전압 1,130[V]에서 최대휘도 9,200[$cd/m^2$], 광효율 20.4[lm/W]을 었었고, 기체 압력 2.7[kPa] 구동전압 1,120[V]에서 최대효율 34.1[lm/W], 휘도 1,080[$cd/m^2$]을 얻었다. 현재 무수은 램프는 수은 램프에 비해서 광학적 특성이 좋지 못하다. 무수은 램프에서 좋은 광학적 특성을 얻기 위해 가장 중요한 것은 수축이 없이 방전을 확산시키는 것이다. 이를 위해서 램프구조와 구동법을 최적화하는 것이 필요하다. 또한 기체압력을 높임으로서 Xe의 여기복사를 얻을 수 있었다.

A method of selective determination of inorganic and organic mercury compounds has been described. The $CHCl_3$ solution of a high molecular quaternary alkylammonium salt, Aliquat 336 was used for the simultaneous preconcentration of both inorganic, $Hg^{2+}$ as its thiocyanate complex, and organic mercury compounds, $CH_3HgCl$ and $C_2H_3O_2$ $HgC_6H_5$ by extraction from their aqueous solution. Selective separation of the inorganic mercury from the extract was followed by stripping with 3 M $HClO_4 $ solution for the subsequent determination by CVAAS. Organic mercury was also determined by CVAAS after removal of $CHCl_3solvent$ from the extract and decomposition of the residue with 4% $KMnO_4 $-1 MH_2$S0_4$. The mixtures of inorganic and organic mercury compounds contained 1.0 $\mug$ as Hg in 50 mL of sample solution(0.02 ${\mu}gHg/mL$) were analysed within ${\pm}6%$ by absolute errors.

이미지를 이용한 도공층 구조 분석은 도공층의 실제 Morphology를 분석하여 평가하는 방법으로서 최근 세밀한 도공층 구조 분석을 위해 이 방법에 대한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 특히 이러한 방법은 수은압입법(Mercury intrusion)이나 질소흡착법 (Nitrogen adsorption by BJH theory) 등과 같은 기존의 공극 특성 평가 방법과 달리 pore aspect ratio 및 orientation 등과 같은 공극 dimension을 평가할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이러한 공극 dimension은 size distribution 및 porosity와 더불어 인쇄, 라미네이션 접착 등과 같은 Liquid interfacial 및 침투 측면에서 중요한 요소이기 때문에 이를 평가하기 위한 적합한 방법으로 인식되고 있다. 또, 원지 부분과 도공층 간의 경계를 명확하게 보여주고 Surface와 Cross-section 영역을 구분하여 평가 할 수 있어 더 명확한 평가를 가능하게 한다. 본 연구에서는 이미지 분석을 통해 도공액 구성 조건에 따른 도공층의 공극 구조 특성을 평가 하였고 일부 요소에 대해서는 수은 압입법과 비교 평가하여 이미지 분석법과의 상관성에 대해 고찰 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 FE (Field Emission)-SEM은 일반 SEM과 달리 전압에 의한 높은 전기장의 형성을 통해 저 가속 전압으로 이미지를 구현하는 장비로서 본 연구에서는 FE-SEM을 통해 도공층의 세밀한 Morphology와 공극 구조 이미지를 구현할 수 있었다.

Four heavy metals (Pb, Cd, As, and Hg) in 38 species (total 325 samples) of oriental animality medicines were monitored by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and automatic mercury analyzer (AMA). The detected concentration range of Pb, Cd, As was presented as $0.02{\mu}gkg^{-1}$ $(D.L){\sim}11.29mgkg^{-1}$, $0.01{\mu}gkg^{-1}$ $(D.L){\sim}2.50 mgkg^{-1}$, $0.12{\mu}gkg^{-1}$ $(D.L){\sim}5.27mgkg^{-1}$, respectively. In case of Hg, it the concentration range was $0.01{\sim}77.11mgkg^{-1}$ except one sample which exceeded detection limit. In all samples of Amydae Carapax and Gallnut, it was not detected over the maximum residue limits of metals. Pb is in charge of the greatest portion of contamination in 22 species of animality medicines, and in case of Hg, 54.46% of total samples were over the maximum residue limits. Therefore, environmental levels of Pb and Hg are needed to continue the researches and the studies for tracking pollution source are required.

Objectives: The objective of this study was to identify the relationship between fish consumption and blood mercury levels in a sample of adult Koreans. Methods: The study subjects were 299 residents of Busan (male: 65, female: 234) and 185 residents of Namhae (male: 69, female: 116), South Korea. Demographic characteristics, current smoking, current drinking, fish consumption per week, past history of amalgam treatment, and residential district were recorded by trained interviewers in June and July, 2009. We considered a portion of fish to be equivalent to 70 gm weight, and calculated amounts of fish consumed per week. Using chi-square tests, t-tests, ANOVA, and multiple linear regression analysis, we estimated the relationships between blood mercury levels and amount of fish consumed per week and other factors. Results: The mean blood mercury level of our subjects was 6.61 ${\mu}g/L$, higher than the criterion defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (5.8 ${\mu}g/L$). In multiple linear regression analysis, residential district and amount of fish consumed per week were associated with blood mercury levels. However, marital status, current drinking, and gender, and age were not associated with blood mercury levels. Conclusions: In conclusion, we suggest the implementation of systematic and periodic population-based studies to decrease the risks of mercury poisoning among South Koreans who consume fish as a regular part of the diet.

毒에는 비소, 수은처럼 無機毒과 식물, 동물성의 有機毒이 있으며, 有機毒에는 알카로이드, 배당체, 단백毒 등이 있다. 식물의 알카로이드毒을 중심으로 이것이 어떻게 藥物로서 이용되어 왔는지에 관해 다루었다. Morphine의 발견을 계기로 여러 종류의 식물 알카로이드가 계속 분리되었으며, 藥의 탐구의 새로운 길을 열었다. Morphine은 우수한 진통의 효과를 가졌지만, 흡수억제 및 습관성의 결점을 가지고 있다. 또, Areca catechu L. 의 종자(빈낭자)에는arecoline, arecaidine 등의 piperidine系의 알카로이드를 함유하고 있다. Arecoline은 副交感神經 흥분작용이 있고, 침분비 촉진, 比瀉 등으로 사용되어 왔지만, 지금은 그 용도가 적어졌다. 그리고 화살독이 되는 毒을 약물로 사용한 것은 Acontium屬 식물이 유일한 것이다. 중국에서는 이를 身體四肢關節의 마비, 疼痛의 회복, 대사기능실조의 회복 등의 목적으로 사용해 왔다.

The content of the trace metals in the cultured and wild fishes were determined. The tested fishes were genuin porgy (Pagrus major) and black porgy (Acanthopogrus schlegeli). The samples of the cultured and wild fishes were collected from slices of raw fish in shops, during 2003 to 2004. The samples were digested with acids, then analyzed by ICP (inductively Coupled plasma Spectrometer) and AAS (Automic Absorption Spectrometer) for the content of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (As), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn). The content of mercury (Hg) was determined using mercury analyzer. The mean contents of trace metals in cultured and wild fish was 0.031,0.047mg/kg far total-mercury,0.321,0.407 for Pb, 0.048,0.063 for Cd, 1.006, 1.132 for As, 0.467,0.806 for Cu, 0.233, 0.293 for Cr, 9.69, 12.20 for Zn,0.798, 0.624 mg/kg far Mn, respectively. The content of all the trace metals except manganese in wild fish was more than that in cultured fish. The highest level of total-mercury, lead, cadmium, zinc, chromium and arsenic in the samples analyzed were all below the quarantine limit of Korean regulation and guideline established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration f3r human consumption. The level of the trace metals in the samples was negligible, which could be endogenous. Our data obtained in this study showed that the average weekly intakes of lead, cadmium and mercury from cultured and wild fishes takes about $6\∼13\%$ of Un(Provisional Tolerance Weekley Intakes) that FAO/WHO Joint Food Additive and Contaminants Committee has set to evaluate their safeties.
