영양실태조사 및 사람을 대상으로 하는 많은 영양적 연구에서 요중(尿中) 여러 성분(成分)들의 배설량을 측정하기 위해 만 하루의 소변을 완전히 채취하기는 매우 어려우므로 임의시간(任意時間)의 소변을 채취하여 사용한다. 이 경우엔 흔히 요성분(尿成分)의 농도는 요중(尿中) 크레아티닌을 양(量)을 기준으로 하여 표시되는데, 크레아티닌은 요중(尿中) 일일(一日) 배설량이 개인에 따라 알정하고 요양(尿量)에는 상관없이 비교적 일정한 속도로 배설 된다고 간주되기 때문이다. 그러나 비교적 높은 발생율을 갖는 세균재(細菌在) 요도염(尿道炎)에서는 감염균(感染菌)이 크레아티닌을 파괴할 가능성이 있고 따라서 이 경우의 요중(尿中) 크레아티닌의 여러 용도(用途)는 비합리적으로 될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이 가설을 규명하려고 한다. 첫 실험에서는 감염균(感染菌)이 요소(尿素)를 암모니아로 파괴함으로써 형성되는 요(尿)의 알칼리성에 대한 크레아티닌의 안정성(安定性)을 알아 보았다. 건강인(健康人)의 요중(尿中) 크레아티닌과 완충액에 용해시킨 순수 크레아티닌을 pH $4.5{\sim}9.0$으로 조정하여 $37^{\circ}C$에서 6일간 배양시켰다. 잔존한 크레아티닌을 측량한 결과, 크레아티닌은 완충용액이나 요(尿)에서서 모두 산성 pH에서 보다 알칼리 pH에서 더욱 안정(安定)함을 보여주었다. 1일간 배양 후엔 거의 변화(變化)가 없었고 6일 후에나 $4.2{\sim}8.0%$의 감소율을 나타냈을 뿐이다. 두번째 실험에서는 감염균이 크레아티닌을 성장(成長)을 위한 질소급원으로 사용하는지를 결정하기 위해 세균성(細菌性) 요도염(尿道炎)에서 자주 발견되는 13종류(種類)의 박테리아를 건강인(健康人)의 요(尿)와 크레아티닌을 질소급원으로 하는 합성배지(合成培地)에 $37^{\circ}C$로 배양하였다. 대부분의 박테리아는 크레아티닌함양(含量)을 감소시키지 않았다. 그러나 Pseudomonas aeruginosa와 Klebsiella pneumoniae는 합성배지중(合成培地中)의 크레아티닌을 상당량 파괴시켰고, 그 파괴율은 그들 성장율과 평행하였다. 배양 6일후에는 크레아티닌이 Pseudomonas aeruginosa에 의해 처음 양(量)(500mg/100m1) 의 12.8%가, Kleobsiella pneumoniae에 의해서는 11.8%가 감소되었다. 감소율은 크레아티닌의 처음 농도가 낮을수록 커져서 50mg/100ml 일 때는 각각 21.1%와 28.2%이었다. 더욱이 Klebsiella pneumoniae는 황산암모늄과 요소(尿素)같은 다른 질소급원이 크레아티닌과 공존(共存)할 때에도 크레아티닌을 어느 정도 파괴함을 보여 주었다. 결론으로, 세균성(細菌性) 요도염(尿道炎)환자의 요(尿)의 알칼리성은 요중(尿中) 크레아티닌양(量)에 중요한 영항을 주지 못한다. 그러나 본(本) 연구(硏究)에서 사용된 Klebsiella pneumoniae와 가능하게는 Pseudomonas aeruginosa 같은 몇 감염균(感染菌)은 크레아티닌을 그들 성장(成長)의 질소급원으로 사용하여 요중(尿中) 크레아티닌양(量)을 저하시킬지도 모른다. 특히 요(尿)에 요소(尿素), 요산(尿酸)같은 다른 질소급원이 크레아티닌에 비해 비교적 낮은 비율로 존재할 때에, 예(例)를 들면 저(低)단백식사(食事)인 경우, 감염균에 의한 크레아티닌의 파괴율이 더 클 것으로 기대된다.

Biogas yields point of view, the possibility of reusing excess sludge treated by thermal pretreatment for the purpose of improving the efficiency of the anaerobic digestion process has been investigated in recent year. Thermal pretreatment technology was considered as a pretreatment technique to improve excess sludge properties because of the solubilization of particulate organics. As a view point of sludge reduction and recycle, however, many researchers focused on the ability of particulate hydrolysis and COD solubilization under a high temperature, and few reports have addressed on the physical/chemical characteristics changing. This research was performed to evaluate the effects of a various temperature and chemical additives on carbon formation and fractionation in treated slurry from thermal pretreatment. Based on the results, it was revealed that oxidants injection and temperature changing have significantly caused the change of carbon fractions in slurry from thermal pretreament. Especially, it was considered that the efficiencies of particle hydrolysis increased with the increase of the reaction temperature. Low molecular weight(Mw < 350 g/mol) organic carbon formation increased with the increase of oxidants injection. It was expected that results of this research will provide an overview of the characteristics of thermal pretreatement for excess sludge reduction and recycle.

Paper, textile and wood materials are mainly consisted of cellulose. Cellulose is high molecule and make up the strong crystalline structure by hydrogen bonds. In particular, the polymerization degree of cellulose are closely related to the strength of fiber, and the permanence. the useful life of fiber, also depends on the degradation of this substance. The viscosity of cellulose is considered to be an important indicator of fiber damage in high molecule polymers. The viscosity measurements with CED solution is used to measure the molecular weight and the degree of polymerization of cellulose. Cellulose viscosity of wood fibers is measured with TAPPI standard method T230. However, TAPPI standard method T230 is difficult to completely dissolving the cellulose of high molecular weight and large degree of polymerization, such as Korea traditional papers and fabrics made with mulberry, ramie, cotton fibers. In this study, The high viscosity of hanji and fabric was measured with TAPPI standard method T254. T254 method is that the cellulose specimen with the proper amount of weaker (0.167M CED) solution, and completely dissolved with the stronger (1.0M CED) solution. It was found that cellulose with high degree of polymerization was dissolved more easily in general CED method.

High molecular weight syndiotactic poly(vinyl alcohol)(HMW s-PVA) with number-average degree of polymerization of 10000 and syndiotactic diad content of 61.5%/iodine complex film was prepared. Its adsorption and desorption behaviors of iodine in hot water were investigated. In comparison with atactic PVA film or low molecular weight s-PVA film, the degree of solubility of s-PVA film and the iodine desorption of HMW s-PVA/iodine film in hot water were limited to an extremely lower level. As the soaking time increased, the iodine desorption in hot water was increased. This reason might be explained by the fact that as the soaking time increased, so the iodine adsorption increased not by the stable molecular complex between PVA and iodine but by the simple physical adsorption of iodine.

The change of strength and water vapour diffusion resistant by soluble salts was investigated in the tuff and granite used in many stone monuments of Gyeongju area. With $Na_2SO_4$ and $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ were treated the rock samples to understand the difference of solubility. The densities of the tested rocks were increased by the impregnation of $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $Na_2SO_4$. The flexural strength was increased in the tuff samples but decreased in the granite as the salts increased in the pore. In the tuff, the uniaxial compressive strength was increased by $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, but decreased by $Na_2SO_4$. In the granite, it was decreased slightly by $CaSO_4{\cdot}2H_2O$, but increased by $Na_2SO_4$. The water vapour diffusion resistant was increased by the salts in both rocks. As results, it was cleared that the mechanical strength colud be increased in early stage of weathering by the accumulation of salt and water vapour diffusion resistant.

The dnrF gene, responsible for conversion of aklavinone to $\varepsilon$-rhodomycinone via C-11 hydroxylation, was mapped in the daunorubicin gene cluster of Streptomyces peucetius subsp. caesius ATCC 27952, close to drrAB, one of the anthracycline resistance genes. To characterize the enzymatic properties of the aklavinone 11-hydroxylase, the dnrF gene was overexpressed in Escherchia coli. The pET-22(+) plasmid which has the T7 promoter under the control of lacUV5 gene was used for the overexpression of the dnrF gene, and the recombinant plasmid pET213 that contains the dnrF gene linked to the T7 promoter of pET-22b(+) was introduced into the E. coli BL2l. When the expression of the dnrF gene was induced by IPTG at the final concentration of 1 mM, the induced protein could be detected in SDS-PAGE only in insoluble precipitate. The insoluble protein was electroeluted from the gel and used for the preparation of antiserum in mice. Various culture conditions were tested to maximize the expression of the aklavinone 11-hydroxylase in soluble form. The enzymatic activity was checked by the bioconversion experiment, and the protein was confirmed by the SDS-PAGE and the Western blot analysis. From the analysis of the data, it was concluded that the culture induced with IPTG at the final concentration of 0.02 mM at 37$^{\circ}C$ yielded the best productivity of active form of enzyme.

2010년 약 19.5 GWp 의 규모로 성장한 태양광 시장의 주요 소재는 실리콘을 이용한 태양전지이며, 고성능 및 고효율 태양전지 시장이 급성장 하였다. 이러한 고품질 태양전지에 사용되는 주요 원료인 9N 급 폴리실리콘은 2008년 4월 $265/kg 까지 상승하였으나, 점차 하향안정세에 있으며, 급속한 가격 경쟁을 통해 당분간 장기공급가가 50$/kg 이하로 하락할 것으로 전망된다. 이러한 실리콘 제조기술 중 가장 많이 사용되는 기술은 Trichloro-silane (TCS) 또는 Mono-silane (MS)를 사용하는 기상법인 일명 Siemens 공정이다. 이러한 기상법의 경우 12N 이상의 초고품질 실리콘 제조가 가능하나, 대규모의 설비투자(1억원/폴리실리콘 1톤)와 높은 에너지(120 kWh/kg)가 요구된다. 이에 최근 기상법이 아닌 야금학적인 정련법에 대한 기술이 개발되고 있으며, 이는 금속 실리콘을 슬래그 처리, 편석 분리, 응고 급랭, 전자빔, 플라즈마 등을 이용하여 정련하는 공정을 말한다. 야금학적 정련법은 순도 면에서 기상법에 비하여 낮은 단점이 있음에도 불구하고, 여러 장점들로 인해 활발히 연구되며 점차 실용화 되고 있는 매우 유용한 기술이다. 야금학적 정련법의 주요 장점은 기상법에 비해 약 25% 정도의 설비 투자비로 가능하고, 금속 실리콘을 직접 사용하며, 에너지 payback이 짧다. 또한, 산 및 염화실렌을 사용하지 않으므로 환경 문제를 적게 야기하고, 생산설비의 확장성도 매우 높다. 본 연구에서는 국내 규석광을 이용하여 일련의 정련 공정을 거쳐 고순도SG(Solar Grade)급 실리콘을 제조하고자 하였다. 실리콘 용융 환원로를 개발하고 순도를 높이기 위해 슬래그정련법을 이용하였으며, 생산된 3N 급의 금속 실리콘을 비기상법정련 방식인 일방향 응고와 플라즈마 정련 및 전자기유도 용해법을 이용하여 고순도의 실리콘을 제조하였다. 본 연구에서는 상업생산을 개시한 외국의 E사와 비교하여 산침출공정을 거치지 않으므로 실리콘회수율 및 환경부하 절감의 장점을 갖고 있으며 최종 순도 실리콘 6N 이상, 보론 함유량 0.2 ppm 이하를 달성하였으며, 기존 기상법 대비 약 20%의 전력 감소와 약 13%의 금속실리콘 원료 절감 효과가 있었다. 저가/고순도 SG급실리콘의 제조기술 개발은 향후 세계 태양광 시장에 대한 경쟁력을 확보하고, 시장 점유율 상승에 기여할 수 있으며, 산업 확대를 통한 주변 산업으로의 파급 효과가 매우 클 것으로 예상된다.

The warming of water as a result of climate change affects fish habitat. Variations in water temperature affect fish physiology almost totally. The rise in water temperature due to climate change leads to hypoxia following decreased oxygen solubility and decreased binding capacity of oxygen-carrying hemoglobin. This study was conducted to evaluate the health status of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fry at elevated water temperatures($20^{\circ}C$) compared with optimum water temperature ($15^{\circ}C$). The method facilitated the detection of biomarker genes using NGS RNAseq analysis and evaluation of their expression pattern using RT-qPCR analysis. The biomarker genes included interferon alpha-inducible protein 27-like protein 2A transcript variant X3, protein L-Myc-1b-like, placenta growth factor-like transcript variant X1, fibroblast growth factor receptor-like 1 transcript variant X1, transferrin, intelectin, thioredoxin-like, c-type lectin lectoxin-Thr1-like, ladderlectin-like and calponin-1. The selected biomarker genes were sensitive to changes in water temperature based on NGS RNAseq analysis. The expression patterns of these genes based on RT-qPCR were similar to those of NGS RNAseq analysis.

Sea urchin roe obtained from Anthocidaris crassispina and Pseudocentrotus depressus was briefly salt-fermented (5%), followed by ethanol treatment (1%) and the physicochemical properties as well as antioxidant activity were investigated. Compared to raw sea urchin roes, the salted one showed a significantly low amount of water (p<0.001) high salinity (p<0.05), ash content (p<0.001) and Na content (p<0.001). With salt-fermentation, the redness (p<0.05) and yellowness (p<0.001) of roe decreased noticeably, indicating the decomposition of endogenous carotenoids. Accordingly, the salted roe showed a lower DPPH radical scavenging activity than its unsalted counterpart. Additionally, it showed a significantly lower metal-chelating activity (p<0.05) and metal chelator content (e.g. ortho-phenolics) displayed by a negligible difference in titratable acidity. The salted roe showed significantly increased hardness (p<0.05) and total reducing capacity (p<0.001), which were attributed to the protein coagulation and the release of antioxidants bound to macromolecules after the ethanol treatment, respectively.

Amphipathic compounds (bis-sulfonate Gemini type) with double or triple long chain alkyl groups were prepared by the reaction of N-(long chain acyl)diethanolamine diglycidyl ethers with fatty alcohols, followed by the reaction with propanesultone. All these new Gemini type surfactants were soluble in water and showed much better micelle forming ability and lowering surface tension than sodium dodecyl sulfonate with one sulfonate group. cmc and ${\Upsilon}$ cmc values of the triple-chain compounds were still much smaller than those of the corresponding double-chain compounds with two common alkyl groups. The efficiency of adsorption at the water/air interface ($pC_{20}$) of these surfactants was very high. Their foaming properties, wetting ability toward a felt chip, and lime-soap dispersing requirement (LSDR) were measured. Their initial foaming properties were high but showed good low foam stability, wettability and LSDR.
