We observed DNA damages as a function of mean absorbed dose to identify the indirect effect of high-energy radiation such as x-ray. Monolayer films of lyophilized pGEM-3Zf(-) plasmid DNA deposited on tantalum foils were exposed to Al $K{\alpha}$ X-ray (1.5 keV) for 0, 3, 7 and 10 min, respectively, in a condition of ultrahigh vacuum state. We compared DNA damages by X-ray irradiation with those by 3 eV electron irradiation. X-ray photons produced low-energy electrons (mainly below 20 eV) from the tantalum foils and DNA damage was induced chiefly by these electrons. For electron beam irradiation, DNA damage was directly caused by 3 eV electrons. Irradiated DNA was analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis and quantified by ImagaQuant program. The quantities of remained supercoiled DNA after irradiation were linearly decreased as a function of mean absorbed dose. On the other hand, the yields of nicked circular (single strand break, SSB) and interduplex crosslinked form 1 DNA were linearly increased as a function of mean absorbed dose. From this study, it was confirmed that DNA damage was also induced by low energy electrons ($0{\sim}10\;eV$) even below threshold energies for the ionization of DNA.

Simultaneous field measurements of short-period and long-period waves were made at five stations inside or outside Okkye Harbor, which is located in the east coast of Korea. Based on the measured data, spacial and temporal variations of the long-period wave energy were examined. Three smoothing methods were examined for the spectral estimates: fixed interval averaging method, incremental interval averaging method, and moving averaging method. It was shown that a proper smoothing method should be chosen depending on the period of first resonant mode and the length of data being used. By comparing the results obtained using the long-term data with those obtained using two-day data, we showed that it is necessary to analyze the data of calm seas and storm seas separately. The Helmholtz resonant period in Okkye Harbor was found to be about 9.6 minutes with its relative amplification ratio of 9 to 10, and local amplifications were apparent at the periods of 1.2 to 1.3 minutes and 0.7 minute. During calm seas, both at the harbor entrance and inside the harbor the energy of the waves of 9 minutes or longer period was larger than the infra-gravity wave energy by more than 100 times. However, during storm seas the energy level was very high all over the period band, and local amplification was larger than that during calm seas by more than 100 times, especially inside the harbor, Finally it was shown that the energies of the Helmholtz resonant mode and the infra-gravity waves of 1 to 2 minutes are proportional to the storm wave height.

To meet sectoral emission target by 2020 and prepare for the emission trading scheme from 2015, decomposition analysis of energy consumption and GHG emission is required by 18 subsectors in industry sector where emission targets are established. Log Mean Divisia Index decomposition method was used to analyze factors' effects on energy and emission in the industry sector and by 18 subsectors from 2004 to 2011. Industrial energy consumption was increased due to the production effect and energy intensity effect. However structure effect contributes to the decrease of energy consumption. In terms of emissions (including indirect emission due to electricity consumption) in the industry sector, only structure effect contributed to the emission reduction. Factors' effects by subsectors were different. Cement industry, which is included at Nonmetal shows different results from those of Nonmetal industry and machinery industry, which is a subsector of Fabricated Metal, was also similar. In this regard, we should not apply the policy implications from decomposition analysis of aggregated industry such as Nonmetal or Fabricated Metal to its subsectors uniformly and develop a differentiated policy for each subsector industry.

중성지방(TG)은 모유와 조제분유의 주요에너지원이며 전체에너지의 50%까지 제공한다. 그러나, 일반 조제분유와 모유의 TG구조는 상당히 다르며, 이러한 구조적 차이로 인해 지방 및 칼슘흡수에 차이가 생긴다. 즉, 모유지방산의 1/4정도를 구성하는 팔미틴산은 이것의 70%정도가 glycerol 의 두 번째 탄소에 결합되어 있는 sn-2(middle)position으로 되어 있으며, 이러한 위치의 팔미틴산은 일반적으로 췌장지방분해 효소에 의해 분해되지 않고 2-monoglyceride로 존재한다. (중략)

폐 플라스틱은 석유 물질인 탄화수소로 구성하고 있지만 효과적으로 재활용되지 못하고 대부분 매립, 소각 등의 방법으로 처리하고 있다. 플라스틱은 다양한 용도로 사용되기 때문에 플라스틱의 이용과 소비의 증가는 필연적이다. 예로 미국 가정의 폐 플라스틱은 63% 폴리에틸렌, 11% 폴리프로필렌, 11% 폴리스타이렌, 7% PET 그리고 7% PVC가 발생되는데 이들 화합물 구조가 포화탄화수소형이기 때문에 70% 정도가 방향족 화합물인 석탄에 비해 수소첨가 반응이 요구되지 않는다.(중략)

Photo-decomposition experiments to produce hydrogen from organic compound such as alcohols and organic acids were investigated using the Korean natural ilmenite, which was used as ore itself as well as the calcined in vacuum. The decomposition activities of alcohol on ore (30-60 mesh) which was not calcined did not decrease even if it was repeatedly used. But crushed ore which had newly formed ilmenite surface revealed enhanced activities. The ilmenite powder calcined in vacuum showed 3-8 times higher activies than the ore powder itself and also the decomposition activity of formic acid was much higher than that of alcohols.

박막시료의 분석에는 RBS, XPS, SIMS, AES 등이 주로 이용되고 있으며, 특히 RBS는 비교체가 필요없고 정량성이 좋다는 장점 때문에 중요하다. 그러나 RBS는 원리적으로 경원소에 대한 감도가 낮아 기판원소보다 무거운 질량을 갖는 원소의 분석에만 이용되는 것이 보통이다. 이러한 단점을 보완하기 위해 본 연구에서는 수년전부터 RBS와 비슷한 원리를 갖고 같은 장비를 이용하여 수행이 가능한 경원소 분석법인 TOF-ERDA(Time of Flight Elastic Recoil detection)을 개발하여 실용화 하였다. 본 연구실에서 보유하고 있는 미국 NEC사의 5SDH 가속기는 최대 가속전압이 1.7MV로 Cl5+ 이온을 사용하는 경우 10 MeV가 최대 가속에너지가 된다. 이런 정도의 에너지 범위에서는 TOF spectrometer의 시간분해능이 아주 높을 필요가 없고 비교적 작은 가속기로도 분석이 가능하며, 수소의 검출효율이 우수하다는 점 등 많은 장점이 있다. 그러나 한편으로는 분석가능한 깊이가 수천 $\AA$ 정도로 제한되고 질량 분해능도 수십 MeV 내지 100MeV 이상의 고에너지 이온빔을 이용하는 경우에 비해 떨어진다는 단점이 있다. 또한 묵운 원소의 분석이 불가능하기 때문에 경원소의 분석에 국한하여 적용하고 무거운 원소에 대해서는 RBS를 병용하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 일본 이화학연구소의 선형가속기인 RILAC으로부터 얻은 40MeV Ar 이온 및 138 MeV Xe 이온을 이용하여 TOF-ERDA 시스템을 제작하였다. 그러기 위해서 고에너지 이온의 비행시간을 측정하는 목적으로 높은 시간 분해능을 갖는 시간 검출기를 설계, 제작하였다. 또한 표적함 밑에는 회전원판이 있어 시간검출기 및 에너지 검출기가 중앙의 시료홀더를 중심으로 회전이 가능하도록 되었다. 회전은 표적함 밖에서 원격조정 가능하다. 이렇게 함으로써 검출각을 임의로 바꾸면서 측정이 가능하도록 하였다. 제작된 분석시스템의 성능을 확인하기 위해 YBaCuO 초전도 박막을 측정하였으며 그 결과를 그림에 나타낸다. 저 에너지 ERDA에서는 나타나기 힘든 Ba, Y, Cu 등의 무거운 원소의 피크들이 분명히 나타남을 확인할 수 있다.

In this experiment, two inclusion levels (15 and 30% of diets, as-fed basis) of brown rice (BR) were tested against a control diet with 0% BR (51% wheat flour of diet). Six female Miniature Poodles (8~9 months age, initial mean body weight of 3.5 kg) were assigned to treatments in replicated $3{\times}3$ Latin square design. Total tract digestibilities of DM, OM, CP, acid hydrolyzed fat and gross energy increased linearly (P<0.05), and observed digestible energy and metabolizable energy values also increased linearly (P<0.001 and P=0.007, respectively) with increasing BR inclusion levels. Wet and dry fecal output decreased linearly (P=0.001) with increasing BR inclusion levels in the diets. Linear (P<0.05) effects was observed in fecal score for dogs fed BR and fecal ammonia concentration increased linearly (P<0.05) in response to increasing BR inclusion level. It seems that the increase in fecal ammonia concentration may be partially related to the decrease in short-chain fatty acid concentration (P<0.01). This study clearly demonstrates that BR improves nutrients digestibility and fecal characteristics of dog.
