지속가능한 DMZ 일원의 생태복원 추진을 위해 DMZ 생태교란지에서 복원공법 모니터링을 실시하였다. 본 실험은 강원도 인제군, 철원군 및 경기도 연천군의 DMZ 내(450m²)에서 진행되었으며, 흰민들레, 구절초, 매발톱, 질경이, 꿀풀이 공시식물로 사용되었다. 각 대상지의 식생유형별 시공방법에 따른 침입종 억제효과를 알아보기 위해 2022년 4월부터 9월까지 일반식생기반재와 특수식생기반재로 처리된 실험구의 전체 피도, 도입종 피도, 침입종 피도, 초장, 출현종 등을 측정하였다. 전체 피도는 세 곳 모두 일반 기반재보다 특수기반재에서 더 높게 나타났으나 대상지에 따라 침입종 피도가 미치는 영향은 달랐다. 도입종의 피도는 인제, 철원, 연천에서 동일하게 흰민들레가 가장 높은 수치를 보였고, 특수기반재에서 보다 높은 피도를 보였다. 폭염 및 폭우로 6월 이후 흰민들레가 감소하면서 구절초, 매발톱의 피도가 점차 증가하였으며 기반재 간의 큰 차이는 없었으나 일부 지역에서는 구절초 피도가 특수기반재보다 일반기반재에서 더 높게 나타났다. 또한, 모든 지역에서 질경이와 꿀풀의 생장은 미미하였다. 같은 처리를 했음에도 대상지별로 소재식물의 출현 여부, 생장률, 침입종의 피도 등이 다른 것으로 보아 복원지의 환경 여건에 따라 적용해야 하는 종, 시공방법, 주변 완충지역의 범위 등에 차이를 두어야 할 것으로 보인다.

The collagens from filefish (Novoden modestus) and cod (Gadus macrocephalus Tilesius) skin were isolated and their physicochemical properties were investigated. Glutamic acid, hydroxyproline, valine and phenylalanine in the filefish skin collagen (FSC) were presented at higher levels than those of cod skin collagen (CSC), but the contents of glycine, proline and serine were contrary. The content of essential amino acids of FSC (265 residues/1000 residues) was higher than CSC (229 residues). The solubilities of both collagens were the lowest at pH 7.0, but precipitously increased at acid zone(below pH 5.0). FSC has lower viscosity than CSC. Furthermore, while the viscosities of both collagens were the lowest at pH 7.0, the viscosities of FSC and CSC were the highest at pH 4.0 and pH 2.0, respectively. The denaturation temperature of $FS(25^{\circ}C)$ was higher than $CSD\;(17^{\circ}C)$. The free hydrophobic residue contents of FSC and CSC tended to increase till $60^{\circ}C,\;and\;50^{\circ}C$ respectively, and to decrease thereafter. Hydration capacities of both collagens were the lowest at pH 7.0, and CSC had the superior hydration capacity to FSC. In addition, emulsifying and emulsifying stability of CSC was also superior to FSC.

Fipronil is an insecticide that belongs to the N-phenylpytazole and has been used mainly for an insect pest control. However, it is known that acute poisoning of the human body causes various symptoms such as dizziness, muscle weakness, dyspnea, skin irritation, and increased heart rate. Lately, eggs containing fipronil have been distributed and toxic problems are spreading around the world. In this study, we tried to develop analytical methods to evaluate the exposure of fipronil and fipronil sulfone in animal serum samples. The differences according to mobile phase and the results of liquid - liquid extraction and solid phase extraction pretreatment method were compared. Distilled water (A) and acetonitrile (B) were selected for the mobile phase, and the pretreatment method was determined by solid phase extraction. As a result of the method validation, the intra-day / inter-day accuracies were 82.2~114.1% and the precisions were less than 20%. The detection limit was 0.027 ng/ml for fipronil and 0.087 ng/ml for fipronil sulfone. The linearity obtained was satisfying, with a coefficient of determination (r²) higher than 0.99. The concentrations in some animal sera were determined using the methods of analysis for fipronil and fipronil sulfone in animal sera developed in this study. Using the method developed in this study, it could be used as an analytical method for human bio-monitoring of fipronil and fipronil sulfone as well as animal serum.

Due to the high specific strength and stiffness of the composite materials, the composite materials have been extensively used in various industries. In particular, carbon fiber reinforced composites are widely used in many mechanical structures. In addition, since carbon fiber reinforced composites have anisotropic properties, to understand the fatigue behavior of composites with different fiber orientation is very important for the efficient structural design. Therefore, in this paper, the effect fiber orientation on the fatigue life of composite materials was experimentally evaluated. For this purpose, tensile and fatigue tests were performed on the off-axis specimens (0°, 10°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°) of the composite materials. As a result of the fatigue tests, the fatigue strength of the composites decreased significantly as the fatigue strength slightly deviated from 0 degrees. On the other hand, the more deviated, the less decreased. This is because the role of supporting the load of fibers decreased as the stacking angle increased. In addition, the fatigue behavior was analyzed by introducing a fatigue strength ratio (Ψ) that eliminates the fiber orientation dependence of the off-axis fatigue behaviors on the unidirectional composites. The off-axis fatigue S-N lines can be reduced to a single line regardless of the fiber orientation by using the fatigue strength ratio (Ψ). Using the fatigue Ψ-N line, it is possible to extract back to any off-axis fatigue S-N lines of the composites with different fiber orientations.

This study was conducted to elucidate the characteristics of equine meat traits and to evaluate the utilization of dried-citrus pulp abundantly produced in Jeju Island as feed ingredient in the diet of finished meat horses. Treatment groups consisted of wheat bran (A) and the dried-pellet mixture of citrus pulp (20%) and wheat bran (80%) (B). Feeding of agricultural by-products were 2 times in a day at the level of 1.5% of body weights. Water and dried-grass forage was not restricted. The average daily gain was similar in both groups. Feed conversion of treatment B showed lower level than that of A. Carcass rate of B was relatively lower than that of A, but meat yield grade of B was higher than that of A. For meat color traits, $L^*$ of B was lighter than that of A, and $b^*$ of group B was lower than that of group A. From the analysis of physical characteristics of equine meats, shearing force had decreased in the treatment B but the levels of drip loss and water holding cavity had increased in the treatment B compared to A. The level of crude fat is lower in the treatment B than the treatment A. For the mineral contents, the treatment B showed higher levels of Ca, K, Mg, Cu and Mn than that of A. For the fatty acid contents, the treatment B showed increased levels of stearic acid, oleic acid, eicosenoic acid, and arachidonic acid compared to A. Consequently, these results suggested that dried-citrus pulp might be utilized as replacement material for equine forage. Please rewrite the whole abstract and should include all required information. Before resubmission, please check it again from a native colleague in your group.

We evaluated the physicochemical and sensory properties of rice cake (Baekseolgi) admixed with various amounts of soybean peel and prepared using a microwave oven. Moisture content decreased gradually during storage but the decrease was less when soybean peel was present, compared with the control material p<0.05). Weight reduction was significantly inhibited as soybean peel level increased. The color lightness $(L^*)$ and redness $(a^*)$ values did not significantly change after addition of soybean peel. However, the yellowness $(b^*)$ value increased uponaddition of soybean peel p<0.05). The RVA properties decreased significantly with the addition of soybean peel, but pasting temperature increased. In terms of texture, neither springiness nor cohesiveness changed upon addition of soybean peel. The hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of Baekseolgi tended to decrease in proportion to the amount of soybean peel added. Adhesiveness rose gradually during storage but the increase was less when soybean peel was added, compared with control. On sensory testing, neither color nor flavor changed upon addition of soybean peel. Baekseolgi with 5% (w/w) soybean peel scored lowest in terms of taste. Hardness score and moisture level were highest when soybean peel was added to 2% or 3% (both w/w). Overall acceptability was greatest when soybean peel was added to 2% (w/w). Thus, Baekseolgi with 2% (w/w) added soybean peal was satisfactory. We conclude that addition of soybean peel to Baekseolgi prepared using a microwave oven improves physicochemical and sensory properties, and delays deterioration during storage.

The degree to which microenvironmental factors are linked to spatial patterns of vegetational factors within ecosystems has important consequences for our understanding of how ecosytems are structured and for conservation of rare species in ecosystems. We studied this relationships between the spatial patterns of microenvironmental factors and vegetational factors in temperate hardwood forest in Mt. Jumbong Biological Reserve Area, Korea. To do this, environmental and vegetational factors from 196 micropoints in a 0.49 ha plot were investigated. Most of all environmental factors and vegetational factors showed the variations among micropoints. Microtopographic factors, litter depth, soil moisture content and relative light intensity at this site were spatially dependent at a scale of 14∼62 m. Coverage of tree and shrub layer and species diversity of herb layer in autumn were spatially dependent at a scale of < 15 m. Species richness and species diversity of herb layer in spring and species richness of herb layer in autumn were spatially dependent at a scale of 28∼48 m. Multiple regression analysis showed that spatial patterns of species richness and species diversity of herb layer in spring and autumn were affected by litter depth, slope, subtree layer, shrub, Sasa borealis etc. The best predictor for the spatial patterns of species richness and species diversity of herb layer at this site was the spatial pattern of litter depth. Species richness and species diversity of herb layer showed strongly negative correlation with litter depth. We estimate that the spatial pattern of litter depth at this site were affected by direction of wind, microtopography and spatial pattern of shrub layer.
