Beimu (Fritillaria thunbergii Miquel), a bulbous plant of Liliaceae found in Korea, Japan and China, has been used as an antitussive and expectorant agent, and is also useful in alleviating stonsillitis and bronchiolitis. Most researches have been focused on micro-propagation and plant regeneration, component analysis, and dormancy relieving of beimu. Reports regarding the biological activity of beimu, such as anti-Helicobacter pyroli or platelet aggregation inhibition activity, are few and not widely available. In this study, methanol extract and its organic solvent fractions were prepared from Fritillaria thunbergii Miquel and their antimicrobial, antithrombin, and antioxidant activities were evaluated, respectively. The methanol extract contained lots of water-soluble materials (58.98%) and hexane-soluble oils (14.85%). The ethylacetate and butanol fraction at $500{\mu}g$/disc concentration showed strong antibacterial activity against tested bacteria, except Escherichia coli. Antifungal activity was not observed in methanol extract and its fractions. The hexane, ethylacetate and butanol fractions showed strong antithrombin activity at 4.8 mg/ml concentration. Especially, the ethylacetate fraction showed 95.4 sec of thrombin time at a concentration of 1.2 mg/ml, which is comparable to aspirin, a widely used antithrombosis agent. For antioxidation activity, the ethylacetate and butanol fraction showed good 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl scavenging activity ($IC_{50}$ of $344{\sim}368{\mu}g$/ml). In superoxide dismutase-like activity and reducing power, the fractions showed $20{\sim}25%$ of vitamin C, and $51{\sim}54%$ of butyl hydroxytoluene, respectively.

최근 Mg, Mg-Al합금, Al은 전자제품의 케이스, 차량의 휠 등의 신소재로서 활용성이 높아 사회적 수요가 급격히 늘고 있다. 이러한 수요 증가와 함께 관련 사업장에서는 취급 과정에서 폭발사고 위험성이 높아지고 있는데, 2010년도에는 국내 사업장에서 금속 분진에 의한 폭발사고가 4건이 발생하여 인명 및 재산피해가 발생하였다. Mg-Al합금의 폭발사고로 사망 1명과 부상 2명이 발생하였으며, Al분진의 폭발사고는 3건이 발생하여 사망 2명과 부상 3명의 인명피해로 이어졌다. 사고조사를 통하여 사업장에서의 금속분진에 대한 위험인식이 매우 낮은 것이 유사 사고가 반복되고 있는 가장 큰 이유로 알려지고 있는데, 이는 금속분진에 대한 부족한 안전기술정보와 밀접한 관련이 있다. 본 연구에서는 Mg, Mg-Al합금, Al등을 취급하는 관련 사업장에서 폭발사고 예방대책을 위하여 활용할 수 있는 폭발특성에 관한 안전기술정보 제공을 목적으로 하고 있다. 보다 구체적으로는 사고 다발 금속분진에 대한 위험성 이해에 도움을 될 수 있도록 동일 입경분포 조건에서의 위험성을 정량적으로 평가하였으며, 이를 위하여 각 금속분진의 동일 입경 조건에서 최대폭발압력, 폭발하한계 등의 폭발위험성 데이터를 실험적으로 조사 하였다. 조사한 시료는 평균입경 200 mesh의 Al, Mg, Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)로서 입도분석기(Beckman Coulter LSI 3320)를 사용하여 측정한 결과 평균입경은 약 $155{\mu}m$로 나타났다. Al분진의 농도변화에 따른 폭발압력을 조사한 결과, 최대폭발압력(Pmax)은 7.9 bar였으며 최대폭발압력상승속도 (dt/dP)max는 농도 $1500[g/m^3]$에서 322 [bar/s]로 최대가 되었으며 폭발 하한계(LEL)는 $70[g/m^3]$가 얻어졌다. 반면에 순수한 Mg의 LEL은 $30[g/m^3]$였으며 Pmax는 6.4 bar, (dP/dt)max는 100 [bar/s]가 얻어졌다. 이러한 결과로부터 LEL이 낮은 Mg는 Al보다 연소성이 큰 것으로 나타났으며, Al은 화염을 유지하는데 필요한 최저 열분해 가스농도를 확보하는데 Mg보다도 고농도의 분진이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)의 LEL은 $50g/m^3$이었으며 Pmax는 9.4 bar, (dP/dt)max는 472 [bar/s]가 얻어졌다. 이러한 결과로부터 Mg-Al(60:40 wt%)합금의 연소성을 살펴보면 착화하기 쉬운 정도는 Mg와 Al의 성분비에 의해 변화하지만 Mg와 Al의 중간 정도로 나타나는 반면, Pmax는 Mg 또는 Al의 단독 물질 성분보다도 매우 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통하여 단일 성분의 Mg와 Al보다도 Mg와 Al이 일정 비율로 구성된 Mg-Al합금의 경우가 화재폭발 위험성이 증가한다는 사실을 알 수 있었으며, 이와 같은 폭발위험특성 자료를 활용하여 분진의 보관, 취급, 폐기 등의 지속적 관리가 필요하며 사업장 특성에 적합한 안전대책을 통한 사고예방대책이 요구된다.

Purpose : This study aimed to determine the best cutoff line for insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-3 to discriminate between growth hormone deficiency (GHD) patients and the control group. Methods : Two hundred thirty subjects with normal controls (129 boys and 101 girls, aged 7-15 years), 14 patients with complete GHD (12 boys and 2 girls), and 17 patients with partial GHD (9 boys and 8 girls) were studied. IGF-I serum concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay (RI), and IGFBP-3 concentrations were measured by immunoradiometric assay (IRMA). Results : The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) plot analysis showed that the best IGF-I and IGFBP-3 cutoff line was at -1 standard deviation (SD). By comparing IGF-I serum levels of GHD children within 1 SD of normal control, we determined the sensitivity (S) (87.5-100%) and specificity (Sp) (80-84.6%) according to the age group. For IGFBP-3, we determined the following values: S (58.7-85.7%) and Sp (79.2-85.5%). Eleven of 14 patients with complete GHD (78.5%) and 16 of 17 patients with partial GHD (94.1%) had IGF-I concentrations equal to or below -1 SD of the control group mean. Ten of 12 complete GHD children (83.3%) and 13 of 17 partial GHD children (76.5%) had IGFBP-3 concentrations equal or below -1 SD of the control group mean. Conclusion : We conclude that the measurement of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 concentrations might provide essential supplementary data in the diagnostic evaluation of patients with GHD. Our results support the need to use cutoff lines based on below -1 SD of the control.

Turbulence structure and suspended sediment transport capacity in vegetated open-channel flows are investigated numerically in the present paper. The $\textsc{k}-\;\varepsilon$ model is employed for the turbulence closure. Mean velocity and turbulence characteristics including turbulence intensity, Reynolds stress, and production and dissipation of turbulence kinetic energy are evaluated and compared with measurement data available in the literature. The numerical results show that mean velocity is diminished due to the drag provided by vegetation, which results in the reduction of turbulence intensity and Reynolds stress. For submerged vegetation, the shear at the top of vegetation dominates turbulence production, and the turbulence production within vegetation is characterized by wakes. For emergent condition, it is observed that the turbulence generation is dominated by wakes within vegetation. In general, simulated profiles compares favorably to measured data. Computed values of eddy viscosity are used to solve the conservation equation for suspended sediment, yielding sediment concentration more uniform over the depth compared with the one in the plain channel. The simulation reveals that the suspended load decreases as the vegetation density increases and the suspended load increases as the particle diameter decreases for the same vegetation density.

There has been continuous efforts to manage the water resources for the required water quality criterion at river channel in Korea. However, we could not obtain the partial improvement only for the point source pollutant such as, wastewater from urban and industrial site through the water quality management. Therefore, it is strongly needed that the Best Management Practice(BMP) throughout the river basin for water quality management including non-point source pollutant loads. This problem should be resolved by recognizing the non-point source pollutant loads from upstream river basin to the outlet depends on the land use and soil type characteristic of the river basin using the computer simulation by distributed parameter model based on the detailed investigation and the application of Geographic Information System(GIS). Used in this study, Annualized Agricultural Non-Point Source Pollution (AnnAGNPS) model is a tool suitable for long term evaluation of the effects of BMPs and can be used for un gauged watershed simulation of runoff and sediment yield. Now applications of model are in progress. So we just describe the limited result. However If well have done modeling and have investigated of propriety of model, well achieve our final goal of this study.

This study was carried out to investigate the composition and the distribution of the benthic community in the coastal area of Inchon seasonally from May 1994 to February 1995, and to estimate the environmental factors that effect the temporal and the spatial changes of benthic species composition. In the present study, 231 species were collected with the average density of 455 ind./$m^2$. The dominant species were Heteromastus sp., Sternaspis scutata, Chaetozone setosa, Mediomastus sp., Glycinde sp., Glycera sp. and Nephtys oligobranchia, which are in the polychaete group; abundance of these species showed seasonal and spatial variations. The study area was divided into 4 regions by cluster analysis such as outside area of Palmido (I), main channel region and adjacent are of Shihwa sea wall (II), north-eastern area of Youngjongdo (III), and the Inchon harbor and the mouth area of Sorae harbor (IV). The particle size of sediment which generally influences the distribution of the benthic community, the differences of the concentration of heavy metals, and of the dissolved oxygen, the increase of the proportion of polychaetes and molluscs, the absence of the crustacean phoxocephalids, and the increase of the abundance of pollution indicator species, indicated that the environment of the areas have been degrading gradually from Group I to Group IV.

The mechanism of cold core eddy formation was investigated using boundary conditions between the East China coastal cold water and the Kuroshio Warm Current, wind data related to the monsoon which was measured by QuikSCAT, and the bottom topography of the East China Sea. When winds blow from the southeast at an intensity comparable to that in the winter period in 1999 and 2003, the warm Kuroshio and Tsushima Current became stronger, and temperatures were considerably higher than those of the extended cold water of the coast of the East China. At that time, the cold water was captured by warm water from the Kuroshio and the Tsushima Current. This facilitated the formation of mesoscale cold core eddies with diameter of 150km in the East China Sea in May, 1999 and February, 2003. The cold core eddy which was detected by NOAA, SeaWiFS and QuikSCAT satellites. The East China Sea is considered to be important not only as a good fishing ground but also nursery and spawning area for many kinds of fishes. Therefore, it would be worth studying spatio-temporal variations of the cold core eddy in the environmental conditions of the northwestern East China Sea using systematic remote sensing techniques.

The Shilla Stone Monument in Jungseongri was found during the road-construction in Pohang. It has approximately two hundreds of letters inscribed on the surface of one side, and it is estimated to be older than Shilla Stone Monument in Naengsuri which had been known for the oldest stele in Shilla Period. This monument is made of fine to medium-grained biotite granite, while the Shilla Stone Monument in Naengsuri is made of fine-grained granodioritic porphyry bearing feldspar and amphibole phenocrysts. Both rock types of the monuments are interpreted to be cognate with biotite granite in Shinkwangmyeon, and with granodioritic porphyry in Gigyemyeon. They are characterized by xenolith and miarolitic cavity. Damage aspects in both monuments are discoloring, cracking and breaking. These damages do not cause structural instability of the monuments, but attenuate aesthetic value. Black and brown discoloring contaminants on the surface of the Jungseongri Monument contain a high amount of manganese and iron. As a result of ultrasonic test, both monuments were evaluated to be medium-weathered (MW), although the velocity of the Shilla Monument in Jungseongri was slightly lower than the Shilla Monument in Naengsuri. This is because the Monument in Juengseongri had been exposed to outdoor environment for long time until the discovery. It is necessary for Shilla Monuments to be protected by appropriately environmental control and management.
