분화용 베고니아 유묘기의 양분흡수 특성을 구명하기 위하여 광강도와 배양액 농도 처리하에 실험을 진행하였다. 엽면적은 광에 의한 차이는 크게 나타나지 않았고 양액의 농도는 EC가 1.0 dSㆍm$^{-1}$처와 1.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$에서 0.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$보다 높게 나타났다. 초장은 광강도가 가장 낮은 처리구에서 길었고 약 38%와 60% 차광율 처리사이에는 큰 차이가 없었다. 또한 배양액의 농도에 따라서는 EC가 1.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$인 처리구에서 EC가 1.0 dSㆍm$^{-1}$과 0.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$인 처리구보다 초장이 길었다. 엽의 생체중도 처리에 따라 유의적인 차이가 나타났다. 광강도가 가장 낮은 처리구에서 생체중이 가장 높았으나 엽의 건물중은 처리간 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 배양액의 농도처리에 있어서 EC가 1.0 dSㆍm$^{-1}$과 1.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$인 처리구에서 EC가 0.5 dSㆍm$^{-1}$인 처리구보다 엽의 생체중이 높게 나타났다. 그러나 배양액의 농도는 엽의 건물중에 영향을 주지 않았다. 줄기의 생체중과 건물중은 처리간 차이가 크게 나타나지 않았다. 다량원소의 흡수율을 조사한 결과 주로 배양액의 농도가 증가함에 따라 양분의 흡수율이 증가한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 광강도의 차이에 따라서 양분의 흡수율이 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 광강도가 매우 낮은 처리구에서 양액의 흡수는 적었지만 높은 양분흡수율을 보였고 이러한 특성은 각 이온의 종류에 따라 약간의 차이를 보였다.

A radiotracer study was conducted to evaluate the influence of body size and temperature on the uptake rates of Cd, Se and Zn in the California mussel, Mytilus californianus. Uptake rates of Cd, Se and Zn were determined simultaneously with clearance of the mussels with 3 different size classes (0.07, 0.24 and 0.73 g flesh dry weight $individual^{-1})$ and at 4 different temperatures (3, 8, 13 and $21^\circ{C})$. The weight-specific uptake rates of 3 elements significantly decreased with body size, but increased with temperature. Simultaneously measured clearance rates of mussels were closely associated with metal uptake rates. The significant association of clearance rates and metal uptake rates of mussels emphasizes the importance of functional role of water pumping activity in the metal uptake process in filter-feeding organisms.

The porosity in porous media like concrete can be considered as a durability index since it may be a routine for the intrusion of harmful ions and room for the keeping moisture. Recently, modeling and analysis techniques for deterioration are provided based on the pore structure with the significance of durability and the relationship between porosity and durability characteristics is an important issue. In this paper, a series of mortar samples with five water to cement ratios are prepared and tests for durability performance are carried out including porosity measurement. The durability test covers those for compressive strength, air permeability, chloride diffusion coefficient, absorption, and moisture diffusion coefficient. They are compared with water to cement ratios and porosity. From the normalized data, when porosity increases to 1.45 times, air permeability, chloride diffusion coefficient, absorption, and moisture diffusion coefficient decrease to 2.3 times, 2.1 times, 5.5 times and 3.7 times, respectively, while compressive strength decreases to 0.6 times. It was evaluated that these are linearly changed with porosity showing high corelation factors. Additionally, intended durability performances are established from the test results and literature studies and a porosity for durable concrete is proposed based on them.

The aim of this research work is to investigate the mix proportion of multi-component cement incorporating ground granulated blast furnace(GGBFS), fly ash(FA) and silica fume(SF) as an addition to cement in ternary and quaternary combinations. The water-binder ratio was 0.45. In this study, 50% and 60% replacement ratios of mineral admixture to OPC was used, while series of combination of 20~40% GGBFS, 5~35% FA and 0~15% SF binder were used for fundamental characteristics tests. This study concern the GGBFS/FA ratio and SF contents of multi-component cement including the compressive strength, water absorptions, ultrasonic pulse velocity(UPV), drying shrinkage and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysises. The results show that the addition of SF can reduce the water absorption and increase the compressive strength, UPV and drying shrinkage. These developments in the compressive strength, UPV and water absorption can be attributed to the fact that increase in the SF content tends basically to consume the calcium hydroxide crystals released from the hydration process leading to the formation of further CSH(calcium silicate hydrate). The strength, water absorption and UPV increases with an increase in GGBFS/FA ratios for a each SF contents. The relationship between GGBFS/FA ratios and compressive strength, water absorption, UPV is close to linear. It was found that the GGBFS/FA ratio and SF contents is the key factor governing the fundamental properties of multi-component cement.

In order to conduct the "A Study on Experiment for Improvement of Water Quality in Concrete Block Using illite and $TiO_2$ Powder", as a result of the preliminary mortar experiment, water quality purification characteristic test, pollution-resistance test, fish poison test, and the related KS-equivalent tests after manufacturing the actual concrete block, the following conclusion were deduced. As a result of the concrete block functional evaluation equivalent to KS, all the conditions showed higher compressive strength. Even though increase of absorption rate, according to illite replacement in vesicular structure, was expected as a problem, it was replaced after mixing with Titanium dioxide, and then Titanium dioxide was settled in large pores of illite so there was no problem in absorption rate.

This study was to examine the effects of dietary protein levels and the sources of protein(animal and plant) on calcium and phosphorus metabo lism in 10 healthy Korean female adults. The 26­d day study consisted of a 6-day adaptation period and lO-day moderate protein(109 N, 550mg Ca) a and IO-day high protein( 14g N, 570mg Ca) pe­r riod. During the experimental period, the subjects w were divided into two groups, either consuming a animal protein diet(75 % animal protein) or plant protein diet(75 % plant protein). Calcium(300 mg) was supplemented to two subjects of each d dict group for the last 4 days. Feces, urine and diet were analyzed nitrogen. calcium and phos­p phorus. The apparent absorption of calcium was significantly increased as the protein intake was inc­r reased from 60g to 90g in animal protein diet. A Average calcium absorption rate was 30% and 46 % from high and moderate levels of animal p protein diet Urinary calcium excretion was not affected by t the amount of the protein intake in both animal and plant protein diet. There was significantly higher urinary calcium excretion(I34mg) in high I level of animal protein diet than that( 83mg) in h high level of plant protein diet. Calcium balance was improved as the protein intake increased and c calcium was supplemented. Phosphorus absorp­t tion was more efficient in the high animal diet(77.81 %) than in the high plant diet(55-65%). The overall results indicate that an increase of protein and calcium supplement in moderate pro­ttein intake can improve calcium balance due to the increase of calcium absorption.

This is a basic study of Cheong-song mineral water, which has high contents of Ca and Mg for making noodles as well as for general cooking. The test results of the noodles manufactured and cooked with mineral water were compared to those manufactured and cooked with distilled water and tap water. Noodles manufactured with mineral water showed higher values than others in the cooked weight, volume, water absorption ability, turbidity, lightness (L) and redness (a) on the minus scale. This means that we can manufacture cooked noodles that have high weight, high volume, high water absorption ability and high lightness (L) along with a slight green color with Cheong-song mineral water. Cooked noodles manufactured with mineral water showed significant differences in the cooked weight and volume compared to those manufactured with distilled water. Also, cooked noodles manufactured with mineral water showed significant differences in moisture absorption, turbidity, lightness (L), redness (a) and yellowness (b) compared to those manufactured with distilled water and tap water. Commercial noodles cooked in mineral water showed significant differences in the cooked weight and redness (a) compared to those cooked in distilled water and tap water. Further, commercial noodles cooked in mineral water showed significant differences in weight, volume and brightness (L) compared to those cooked in distilled water.

In this study, several properties of mortars made with calcium aluminate cement (CAC) such as hydrated products, strength characteristics, absorption, surface electric resistivity and chloride ions penetration resistance were experimentally investigated. The properties of CAC mortars were compared to those of ordinary portland cement (OPC) mortars. From the test results, it was found that the main hydrated products for CAC mortars were of $C_2AH_8$ and $CAH_{10}$, while CH, ettringite and calcite for OPC mortars. The surface electric resistivity and chloride ions penetration resistance of CAC mortars were significantly beneficial compared to those of OPC mortars. However, it should be noted that the absorption properties of CAC mortars were negatively examined. Thus, it needs to have more study for the improvement of surface absorption of CAC matrices. In addition, the combined mixture of CAC and OPC were ineffective to improve some performances of mortars.

Cracks in concrete structures are inevitable phenomena caused by shrinkage, hydration heat, and external loads. These cracks facilitate the penetration of external harmful ions into the concrete, which greatly reduces its durability. Recently, self-healing concrete has been actively studied. Also, self-healing fiber-reinforced concrete have been studied to control the crack in concrete and to maximize the shelf-healing capability. In this study, mortar specimens containing PVA fiber, fly ash and crystalline admixture were fabricated. The compressive and flexural strength were evaluated. Also, the self-healing performance was evaluated by the absorption test. From the results, it was confirmed that the amount of water absorbed by healing of the crack decreased as time increased. It was also found that PVA fiber is beneficial for the production of calcium carbonate, an additional healing product.
