One hundred and twenty-five samples comprising thirteen vegetables harvested in 1971 were collected and subjected to GLC analysis, for ${\alpha}-and\;{\gamma}-BHC$ residues, using ECD. Heavy dependence on the technical BHC, instead of Lindane, was amply reflected on the BHC residues-residues of ${\alpha}-BHC$, depending on the vegetables, amounted to $2{\sim}7$ times that of ${\gamma}-BHC$. In spite of extensive contamination by the BHC isomers, residue levels of ${\gamma}-BHC$ were less than 0.015 ppm in all vegetables and were far less than the tolerence limit of $0{\sim}3.0ppm$ recommended jointly by the FAO and WHO.

For reducing the residual effects of Quinclorac to followed-by crops of paddy rice, three tests by different soil improvers, different cultural performances with tillage and application of composts, and cultivation of different depletion crops were evaluated, respectively. Among seven soil improvers, activated carbon, composts and perlite showed significant promisable feasibility to reduce phytotoxicity of tomato seedlings as affected by Quinclorac residuals, And comparing to untreated check, the application of tillage and composts prior to transplanting of tomato seedling could helpful to reduce Quinclorac residuals in the soil, but tomato and lettuce, most susceptible crops to Quinclorac, were not remarkably protected by those cultural performances. Also among cultivation of depletion crops just after rice harvest, Italian ryegrass, tall fescue, rape and oats engaged to deplete and reduce Quinclorac residuals for tomato seedling growth, however alfalfa and hairy vetch, relatively susceptible plants to Quinclorac were not promisable.

The analytical method was established for simultaneous determination of fungicide prochloraz and its metabolites in several animal commodities using gas chromatography (GC) coupled with electron capture detector (ECD). Samples including beef meat, pork meat, chicken meat, milk, and egg were hydrolyzed with pyridine hydrochloride which converts prochloraz and its metabolites to 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (2,4,6-TCP) because residue definition for prochloraz was 'sum of prochloraz and its metabolites containing the 2,4,6-trichlorophenol moiety, expressed as prochloraz', for compliance with MRLs from animal commodities. Therefore, residual prochloraz was extracted with acetone, decomposed to 2,4,6-TCP, partitioned with dichloromethane, purified with aminopropyl SPE and quantified as 2,4,6-TCP with GC-ECD. The instrumental limit of quantitation and method LOQ (MLOQ) was 0.01 ㎍/mL and 0.02 mg/kg for prochloraz and 0.005 ㎍/mL and 0.01 mg/kg for 2,4,6-TCP, respectively. The linearity of the calibration curve was good with R² >0.995 in the range of 0.005-0.2 ㎍/mL. Fortification levels of prochloraz were 0.02 mg/kg (MLOQ) and 0.2 mg/kg (10MLOQ) for recovery tests. Overall recoveries of prochloraz were >90% with <10% of coefficient variation (C.V.). This established analytical method was fully validated and could be useful for quantification of prochloraz and its metabolites in animal commodities as official analytical method.

This study was undertaken in order to elucidate the elimination of phenthoate residues by washing and cooking processes of rice which if the most important food crop in Korea. When contaminated rice was washed with distilled water three times, the removal rate of total phenthoate was 51%. The removal rate in the successive washings was 37.3% (wash filtrate 7.8%, wash sediment 29.5%) in the first, 14.3% (wash filtrate 6.2%, wash sediment 8.1%) in the second and 8.9% (wash filtrate 5.8%, wash sediment 3.1%) in the third washings. More than half of the residue was removed by the first washing and most residues were found in the sediment rather than in the filtrate of the rice washings. The residue rate of phenthoate after cooking by an electric rice cooker was 41%, indicating that the removal rate after cooking was 59%, because phenthoate is thermally stable at the cooking temperature. In conclusion, phenthoate residues contaminated in rice grains are grcatly removed in the washing process and it is desirable to wash the grains before cooking in order to decrease the hazards from pesticide residues such as phenthoate. Reduction factor of phenthoate in rice cooking is proposed to be 0.4.

Background : Several studies have suggested that impaired mucociliary clearance plays a role in the pathophysiology of bronchial asthma. Cough productive of mucoid sputum is common, and mucous plugs in the airways are frequently observed. These clinical features are in keeping with the histologic lesions of asthma, which involve primarily the epithelial and mucous-producing structures of the conducting airways. Some studies have shown that the mucociliary clearance is impaired in adult asthma, but it has not been studied in childhood asthma. The objectives of this study were to examine whether the mucociliary clearance is impaired in childhood asthma and to estimate the degree of impairment in comparison with that of immotile cilia syndrome. Method : Thirteen children with mild stable asthma and eight patients with immotile cilia syndrome completed this study. Ten healthy children were recruited as a normal control group. The whole-lung mucociliary clearance was measured by the radioaerosol technique. Aerosols, tin colloid particles tagged with the radionuclide technetium-99m($^{99m}Tc$), were generated by means of nebulizer, and inhaled via a mouthpiece. The retention of radioactivity was measured at 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes by gamma camera, and mucociliary clearance was calculated as percent retention at each time. Results: 1) In each subject, the percent retention decreased variably with the lapse of time. 2) The percent retention of radionuclide decreased at each time in order of normal control, bronchial asthma and immotile cilia syndrome and the percent retention of immotile cilia syndrome was significantly higher than that of normal control at each time(p<0.05). 3) At two hours, the percent retention of bronchial asthma($65.0{\pm}1.8$(SE)%) was significantly higher than that of the normal control($54.4{\pm}3.5%$, p<0.05), and significantly lower than that of immotile cilia syndrome($73.3{\pm}1.4%$, p<0.01). 4) When the percent retention was analyzed according to $PC_{20}$ in the children with bronchial asthma, they had no relationship with each other. Conclusion: Mucociliary clearance in the children with bronchial asthma was significantly lower than normal control. This finding indicates that impaired mucociliary clearance operates in childhood asthma as well, and suggests that it may be one contributing factor in the pathogenesis of asthma. The degree of impairment, however, was not so severe as immotile cilia syndrome.

최근 홍수의 특성과 피해 양상은 과거와는 다르게 변화하고 있으며, 급격한 도시화로 인하여 기존 하천유역의 저류 능력이 감소하였는데 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위하여 이미 외국에서는 대심도 터널을 활용한 홍수재해 관리방안이 오래전부터 활용되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 현재 서울시에 건설중인 '신월 빗물저류배수시설' 연속강우 시 대심도 터널의 수리적 안정성 평가와 운영방안 수립을 위한 수리모형실험을 실시하였다. 모형은 Froude 상사법칙을 사용하여 원형의 1/50크기로 제작하였다. 모형의 전체 저류 가능량은 모형기준 $2.78m^3$ (원형 $347,778m^3$)이며, 터널 내 잔류수는 전체 저류 가능량의 0 ~ 100%까지 10%씩 변화시켜 실험 CASE를 선정하였다. 각 실험CASE별 수직 유입구 안정성 평가를 실시한 결과 터널 내 잔류수가 10%~80%까지 존재 할 때는 저지수직구1에서의 압축공기 폭발현상으로 인한 월류현상이 발생하였으며, 10%~40%까지는 저지수직구2에서 월류현상이 발생하였다. 하지만 고지수직구에서는 모든 CASE에서의 공기폭발 현상 및 월류현상이 발생하지 않아 유입성능 및 공기배출 성능이 충분히 발휘되고 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 저지수직구1에서의 월류현상 발생 시점은 5분55초에서 3분42초까지 빨라졌으며 저지수직구2에서의 월류현상 발생 시점은 5분57초에서 4분57초로 빨라졌다. 이는 터널 내 잔류수량이 증가할수록 터널 내 만관시점이 빨라져 발생하며, 저지수직구1,2에서의 압축공기 폭발현상 및 월류 현상은 터널 내에서 발생한 반사파의 영향으로 판단된다. 차후 터널 내 반사파 발생에 대한 연구가 추가적으로 진행되어야 할 것이다.

Non-structural improvements to urban drainage systems are necessary to overcome the elevated levels of urban flood damage. This study proposed a type of automatic pump/gate operation technology for urban pump stations that takes reservoir inflows and river water levels into account and its performance is compared with the current operation using the concept of residual flow-based resilience. The proposed automatic operation relies on three pump operations and two gate operations. The water depth at the monitoring node was used for the pump operation, and the monitoring node was selected in consideration of the first overflow node and the maximum overflow node. The target area is the Daegu Bisan urban pump station, and the rainfall data consisted of probability rainfall sets with durations of 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes and 120 minutes, and frequencies of 30, 50, and 70 years. As a result of the application of the proposed operation, differences in the resilience between the automatic operation and the current operation were at least 5.20E-05 with a maximum of 8.07E-04. The longer the duration is, the greater the difference in the resilience.
