  • 고령사회에 접어든 우리나라는 앞으로 다가올 2025년 초고령사회 진입을 앞두고 있다. 고령 인구의 증가와 함께 고령운전자의 교통안전 사고는 사회적 문제로 자리 잡았다. 본 연구는 초고령사회를 앞두고 고령자가 운전 중 발생하는 교통사고를 방재디자인을 통해 예방하기 위한 연구를 진행하였다. 이론적 연구를 위해 방재디자인의 개념 및 필요성, 고령사회 현황 및 고령운전자 신체적 인지적 특성, 고령자가 보는 교통신호등 형태 및 관련 정책 등을 살펴보았다. 또한, 디자인 제안을 위해 국제 표준화 기구의 교통안전 형태 및 색상을 조사 분석하고, 이를 바탕으로 교통신호등의 점진적 개선을 위해 1차, 2차 교통신호등 디자인 형태를 제안하였다. 1차 개선 형태는 기존의 신호등 두 렌즈 안에 삼각형, 넓은 면적의 화살표, 사각형을 표시하는 안이며, 2차 디자인 개선 형태는 새로운 신호등 두를 도입하여 크기가 커진 삼각형, 넓은 면적의 화살표, 사각형의 렌즈로 신호등을 구성하는 안이다. 이는 시각적으로 현재 교통신호등보다 명확한 형태 띠고 있어 노화로 인해 신체적 인지적 특성을 갖는 고령운전자가 더 나은 가시성과 시인성을 확보할 수 있으며, 운전 환경의 변화(우천, 폭설 등)에서도 현재보다 나은 반사적 반응을 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한, 초고령사회를 대비해 교통신호등 이외의 교통안전표지에 대한 표준지침을 마련하기 위한 선행연구가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • To compare the health status of rural and urban aged persons(over 65 years old) by an abnormality of a hematologic and some biochemical values as well as urinalysis and chest X-ray, following examinations were done on 8,756(male : 4,339: female 4,417) by hemoglobin, total cholesteol, GOT, and glucose, on 9,207(male: 4,467; female : 4.740) by urinalysis and on 9,148(male : 4,426: female : 4,722) by chest X-ray. The results are as follows: 1) The proportion of outlier of normal range of the GOT(over 40 unit) showed higher in rural aged persons(5.3%) than in urban aged(2.8%). There was no significant difference in both of urban and rual female, but the rural male(7.4 showed significantly higher than the urban male(3.9% ). 2) The proportion of abnormality of the total cholesterol value(over 260 mg/dl) was 7,0% in urban and 1.7% in rural aged persons. In the male, there was no significant difference in both urban(2.2%) and rural(1.4%), however the urban female(10.5%) showed significantly higher than the rural female(2.2%). 3) In the blood glucose level, the proportion of abnormality(over 120 mg/dl) showed 17.1% in urban and 19.3% in rural aged persons. The rural aged persons in both sexes(male : 18.1% : female : 20.7%) were relatively higher abnormality rates than those of the urban aged(male : 15. 3%: female : 18.4% ) respectively. 4) The proportion of abnormality of hemoglobin level(less than 12.0 g/dl in male: less than 11.0 g/dl in female) showed 7.1% in urban and 2.6%J in rural aged persons. The urban aged persons in both sexes(male : 8.3%: female 6.3%) were relatively higher abnormality rates than those of the rural aged(male : 3.0%: female : 2.2%) 5) In the urinalysis by urine stix(Korea Green Cross Co.), the positive rates of urine protein were 1.0% in urban and 0.5% in rural aged per-sons, and there was no any significant differences in both areas by sex. 6) The positive rates of urine glucose in urban aged persons(5.8'% : male : 7.3% : female : 4.7%). showed relatively higher than those of rural aged (3.4% : male : 3.9%: female : 2.8%). 7) The positive findings of pulmonary tuberculosis by indirect X-ray examination were observed in 7.7% of aged persons in both rural and urban areas respectively. However, the positive rates of male in both areas(urban : 12.8% ; rural : 10.0%) showed higher than those of female (urban 4.2% ; rural 5.0%).

  • A chemical has been aging in soil environment is more less bioavailable than freshly added chemical. The amount of bioavailability of the aged chemical is different by bacterial strains. The difference could be depend on physiochemical properties of each strain. Phenanthrene was employed as an aged chemical. Seven bacteria were isolated from activated sludge and petroleum disposed soil. These strains were able to degrade phenanthrene and to grow using phenanthrene as a sole carbon source. According to the result of materialization and chemical extraction experiment, the bioavailable amount of aged phenanthrene which has been aged in Lima loam is different by each bacteria. Several physiochemical properties of each strain were tested to certify correlation with their different amount of bioavailability.

  • This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of Yanggaeng, including color, pH, total polyphenol contents, and antioxidant activities, with the addition of aged garlic extract (0, 3, 6, 9 or 12%), aged at low temperatures. Among the color characteristics, the lightness value decreased, and the redness and yellowness values increased, proportional to the amount of garlic extract concentrate added to Yanggaeng. The pH of Yanggaeng significantly (p<0.05) decreased according to the amount of aged garlic extract added. Total phenol contents of control (0% aged garlic extract added Yanggaeng) was the lowest, followed by 3, 6, 9, 12% aged garlic extract added to Yanggaeng (88.15, 118.39, 156.91, 208.79 mg/g, respectively). Antioxidant activities, such as DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, significantly increased with increase in the aged garlic extract concentration. In the sensory evaluation for Yanggaeng, 6% aged garlic extract added to Yanggaeng had the highest score in taste, flavor, and overall acceptance. Based on these results, it is suggest that the addition of 6% aged garlic extract to Yanggaeng can be developed as a product for the elderly.
