대부분의 우리나라의 하천은 제방 축조에 의하여 수로와 홍수터 사이의 횡적연결성이 훼손되어 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 GIS를 이용하여 하천 횡적연결성을 간편하게 원격으로 평가하는 기법을 개발하고 중부지방의 대표적인 하천인 청미천에 적용하여 평가법의 효용성을 평가하는데 있다. 원격평가법의 평가항목은 제내지 서식지 환경 항목으로서 (1) 습지 유지 여부와 (2) 토지이용 특성을 연결성 항목으로서 (3) 제방 차단 여부, (4) 하천과의 연결성 및 (5) 육상 자연서식지와의 연결성으로 구성하였다. 개발된 평가법을 청미천에 시범 적용한 결과에 따르면 청미천의 제내지 옛홍수터는 제방 축조와 토지이용 변화로 횡적연결성이 크게 저하되어 있었다. 또한 GIS 원격 평가법에 의하여 청미천 옛홍수터의 횡적 연결성이 다양한 수준인 것으로 평가되었다. 연구에서 개발된 횡적연결성 원격 평가법은 앞으로 하천의 횡적연결성을 복원하는 다양한 시도에서 현재 연결성의 제한 요인을 파악하는데 유용한 도구로서 이용될 것으로 생각된다.

국내 제로에너지건축물 의무화를 대응하기 위해서 신재생에너지 자립률을 높이려면 고층 건물일수록 대지면적에 한계가 있고 옥상에 PV모듈을 설치하는 것만으로는 부족하다. 따라서 제로에너지건축물을 실현할 수 있는 핵심 에너지원으로 BIPV(Building Integrated PhotoVoltaic, 이하 BIPV)는 가장 주목받는 산업이다. 이에 본 연구는 BIPV 산업의 올바른 방향 제시와 활성화룰 위해 설계자, 시공자, 제품 제조자, 유지관리자 등 경력 10년 이상 전문가를 대상으로 BIPV 산업의 문제점을 자율 토론 방식으로 설문 조사를 시행하였다. BIPV 적용의 산업적 문제점으로는 제품 인증을 위한 표준 및 인증기준의 범위 확대, 다품종 소량 생산의 현황을 고려한 인증범위 개선, 컬러 모듈과 루버 모듈 및 지붕형 제품을 수용할 수 있는 표준 개정 필요성, 인증제품 의무화를 통한 외산 모듈의 국내 유입 차단의 필요성, BIPV 제품 정보 획득의 어려움, BIPV의 건축 적용 부위 등에 대한 정확한 가이드라인으로 참여자간의 혼란 야기 방지 필요, BIPV 정의의 명확한 정립과 지원 정책이나 제도가 부족하다는 문제들을 도출하였다. 이에 본 연구는 산업계에서 바라보는 시장 변화와 영향을 주고 있는 요소, 경쟁력 강화를 위한 필요한 개선 사항을 바탕으로 대응 방안과 방향성을 제시하고 제안하는데 그 목적이 있다.

우유는 110여 종에 달하는 다양한 영양소를 골고루 함유하고 있어 성장기 어린이들에게 영양학적으로 완전에 가까운 식품으로 알려져 있다. 전세계 인구의 75% 정도가 유전적으로 유당을 소화시키는 능력이 부족한 이른바 유당불내증 때문에 우유 소비를 가로막는 최대 장애요인이 되고 있다. 우유의 섭취 부족으로 인하여 영양소의 결핍이 초래되어 골다공증, 고혈압, 결장암의 발병율이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 식품 중에 함유된 유당이 체내에 흡수되려면 소장내에서 가수분해가 일어나야 한다. 유당을 분해하는 효소를 락타아제 또는 $\beta$-갈락토시다아제라 한다. 유당의 가수분해로 생성되는 포도당은 혈당이나 에너지원으로 이용되지만, 갈락토오스는 유아의 뇌조직 성분인 당지질의 합성에 이용된다. 임상적으로 유당불내증은 breath hydrogen production test로 진단할 수 있다. 유당불내증은 유럽인 25%, 히스패닉계, 인도인, 흑인 및 유대인 50~80%, 아시아인과 아메리카 인디언의 경우 거의 100% 생기는 것으로 보고되었다. 성인의 경우 유당을 가수분해할 수 있는 능력 즉, 락타아제 지속성(lactase persistence)이 북유럽 인들에게는 흔한 표현형 인 반면 그 외 지역에서는 락타아제 비지속성(lactase non-persistence) 또는 성인형 저유당분해 효소증(adult-type hypolactasia)이 가장 흔하게 나타난다. 유전자 분석 결과 인간의 락타아제 유전자의 5' 말단으로부터 13910째 염기의 다혈성(C/T-13910 single nucleotide polymorphism)이 락타아제 지속성과 관련이 있다는 사실이 밝혀졌다. 유당불내증을 완화하기 위해서는 1회분으로 한 컵 이하, 타 식품과 함께 마실 것, 탈지유보다는 전지유, 요구르트 유산균과 함께 마실 것 등이 권장되며 위배출지연도 유당불내증 개선에 효과적이다. 기존 유당불내증 진단법은 지나치게 많은 유당을 투여함으로써 유당불내증 비율이 과장되어 있으므로 정확한 진단법의 개발이 필요하다. 발효유 제품이나 저유당 제품을 개발하면 유당불내증으로 인한 유제품의 소비 부진을 크게 해소할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

A major barrier to progress in pig to primate organ transplantation or cell therapy is the presence of terminal ${\alpha}$-1,3-galactosyl epitopes on the surface of pig cells. Therefore, the purpose of this experiment was to establish and cha- racterize mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) derived from ${\alpha}$-1,3-galactosyltransferase (GalT) knock out (GalT KO) pig to confirm their potential for cell therapy. Bone marrow (BM)-MSCs from GalT KO pig of 1 month old were isolated by Ficoll-Paque PLUS gradient and cultured with A-DMEM + 10% FBS on plastic dishes in 5% $CO_2$ incubator at 38.5. GalT KO BM-MSCs were analyzed for the expression of CD markers ($CD45^-$, $29^+$, $90^+$ and $105^+$) and in vitro differentiation ability (adiopogenesis and osteogenesis). Further, cell proliferation capacity and cell aging of GalT KO BM-MSCs were compared to Wild BM-MSCs by BrdU incorporation assay (Roche, Germany) using ELISA at intervals of two days for 7 days. Finally, the cell size was also evaluated in GalT KO and Wild BM-MSCs. Statistical analysis was performed by T-test (P<0.05). GalT KO BM-MSCs showed fibroblast-like cell morphology on plastic culture dish at passage 1 and exhibited $CD45^-$, $29^+$, $90^+$ and $105^+$ expression profile. Follow in ginduction in StemPro adipogenesis and osteogenesis media for 3 weeks, GalT KO BM-MSCs were differentiated into adipocytes, as demonstrated by Oilred Ostaining of lipid vacuoles and osteocytes, as confirmed by Alizarinred Sstaining of mineral dispositions, respectively. BrdU incorporation assay showed a significant decrease in cell proliferation capacity of GalT KO BM-MSCs compared to Wild BM-MSCs from 3 day, when they were seeded at $1{\times}10^3$ cells/well in 96-well plate. Passage 3 GalT KO and Wild BM-MSCs at 80% confluence in culture dish were allowed to form single cells to calculate cell size. The results showed that GalT KO BM-MSCs($15.0{\pm}0.4{\mu}m$) had a little larger cell size than Wild BM-MSCs ($13.5{\pm}0.3{\mu}m$). From the above findings, it is summarized that GalT KO BM-MSCs possessed similar biological properties with Wild BM-MSCs, but exhibited a weak cell proliferation ability and resistance to cell aging. Therefore, GalT KO BM-MSCs might form a good source for cell therapy after due consideration to low proliferation potency in vitro.

It was well known that calcium sulfate was biocompatible, resorbed rapidly in the body, had potential as a good barrier membrane. Platelet-derived growth factor(PDGF) was one of polypeptide growth factor that had been reported as a biological mediator which regulates activities of wound healing process including the cell proliferation, migration and metabolism. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a combination of calcium sulfate and PDGF on periodontal ligament cells in vitro to use as a regeneration promoting agent of periodontal tissue. Human periodontal ligament cells were prepared from the premolar tooth extracted for the orthodontic treatment. Cells were cultured in ${\alpha}-MEM$ contained with 20% FBS, at the $37^{\circ}C$, 100% of humidity, 5% $Co_2$ incubator. Cells were inoculated and cultured into 96 well culture plate with $1{\times}10^4cells/well$ of ${\alpha}-MEM$ for 1 day. After discarding the medium, those cells were cultured in ${\alpha}-MEM$ contained with 10% FBS alone(control group), in calcium sulfate(calcium sulfate group), in calcium sulfate treated with 15ng/ml of PDGF-BB(calcium sulfate+PDGF group), in ${\alpha}-MEM$ contained with 10% FBS treated with 15ng/ml of PDGF-BB(PDGF group) for 1, 2, 3 day respectively. And then each group was characterized by examining of the cell counting, MTT assay, collagen synthesis. The results were as follows. 1. In the analysis of cell proliferation by cell counting, both calcium sulfate group and calcium sulfate plus PDGF group showed no stastically significant difference compared to control group, but there was stastically significant difference between PDGF group and calcium sulfate group at 1, 2 day(P<0.05). 2. In the analysis of cell proliferation by MTT assay in calcium sulfate extracts, both calcium sulfate group and calcium sulfate plus PDGF group showed no stastically significant difference compared to control group, but there was stastically significant difference between PDGF group and calcium sulfate group at 2, 3 day, and between calcium sulfate plus PDGF group and calcium sulfate group at 2 day(P

Clonal propagation of high-value forest trees through somatic embryogenesis (SE) has the potential to rapidly capture the benefits of breeding or genetic engineering programs and to improve raw material uniformity and quality. A major barrier to the commercialization of this technology is the low quality of the resulting embryos. Several factors limit commercialization of SE for Corsican pine, including low initiation rates, low culture survival, culture decline causing low or no embryo production, and inability of somatic embryos to fully mature, resulting in low germination and reduced vigour of somatic seedlings. The objective was to develop a Corsican pine maturation medium that would produce cotyledonary embryos capable of germination. Treatments were arranged in a completely randomized design. Data were analyzed by analysis of variance, and significant differences between treatments determined by multiple range test at P=0.05. Corsican pine (Pinus nigra var. maritima) cultures were initiated on modified !P6 medium. Modifications of the same media were used for culture multiplication and maintenance. Embryogenic cultures were maintained on the same medium semi solidified with 2.5 g/l Gelrite. A maturation medium, capable of promoting the development of Corsican pine somatic embryos that can germinate, is a combination of iP6 modified salts, 2% maltose, 13% polyethylene glycol (PEG), 5 mg!l abscisic acid (ABA), and 2.5 g/l Gelrite. After initiation and once enough tissue developed they were grown in liquid medium. Embryogenic cell suspensions were established by adding 0.951.05 g of 10- to 14-day-old semisolid-grown embryogenic tissue to 9 ml of liquid maintenance media in a 250ml Erlenmeyer flask. Cultures were then incubated in the dark at 2022$^{\circ}$C and rotated at 120 rpm. After 2.53 months on maturation medium, somatic embryos were selected that exhibited normal embryo shape. Ten embryos were placed horizontally on 20 ml of either germination medium ($\frac{2}{1}$strength Murashige and Skoog (1962) salts with 2.5 g/l activated charcoal) or same medium with copper sulphate adjusted to 0.25 mg/1 to compensate for copper adsorption by activated carbon. 2% and 4% maltose was substituted by 7.5% and 13% PEG respectively to improve the yield of the embryos. Substitution of' maltose with PEG was clearly beneficial to embryo development. When 2% of the maltose was replaced with 7.5% PEG, many embryos developed to large bullet-shaped embryos. At latter stages of development most embryos callused and stopped development. A few short, barrel-shaped cotyledonary embryos formed that were covered by callus on the sides and base. When 4% of the maltose was removed and substituted with 13% PEG, the embryos developed further, emerging from the callus and increasing yield slightly. Microscopic examination of the cultures showed differing morphologies, varying from mostly single cells or clumps to well-formed somatic embryos that resembled early zygotic embryos only liquid cultures with organized early-stag. A procedure for converting and acclimating germinants to growth in soil and greenhouse conditions is also tested. Seedling conversion and growth were highly related to the quality of the germinant at the time of planting. Germinants with larger shoots, longer, straighter hypocotyls and longer roots performed best. When mature zygotic embryos germinate the root emerges, before or coincident with the shoot. In contrast, somatic embryos germinate in reverse sequence, with the cotyledons greening first, then shoot emergence and then, much later, if at all, the appearance of the root. Somatic seedlings, produced from the maturation medium, showed 100% survival when planted in a field setting. Somatic seedlings showed normal yearly growth relative to standard seedlings from natural seed.

A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 2002 and 2003 has been carried out. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, air-conditioning, ventilation, sanitation and building environment/design. The conclusions are as follows. (1) Most of fundamental studies on fluid flow were related with heat transportation in diverse facilities. Drop formation and rivulet flow on solid surfaces were interesting topics related with condensation augmentation. Research on micro environment considering flow, heat transfer, humidity was also interesting to promote comfortable living environment. It can be extended considering biological aspects. Development of fans and blowers of high performance and low noise were continuing research topics. Well developed CFD technologies were widely applied for analysis and design of various facilities and their systems. (2) Heat transfer characteristics of enhanced finned tube heat exchangers and heat sinks were extensively investigated. Experimental studies on the boiling heat transfer, vortex generators, fluidized bed heat exchangers, and frosting and defrosting characteristics were also conducted. In addition, the numerical simulations on various heat exchangers were performed and reported to show heat transfer characteristics and performance of the heat exchanger. (3) A review of the recent studies shows that the performance analysis of heat pump have been made by various simulations and experiments. Progresses have been made specifically on the multi-type heat pump systems and other heat pump systems in which exhaust energy is utilized. The performance characteristics of heat pipe have been studied numerically and experimentally, which proves the validity of the developed simulation programs. The effect of various factors on the heat pipe performance has also been examined. Studies of the ice storage system have been focused on the operational characteristics of the system and on the basics of thermal storage materials. Researches into the phase change have been carried out steadily. Several papers deal with the cycle analysis of a few thermodynamic systems which are very useful in the field of air-conditioning and refrigeration. (4) Recent studies on refrigeration and air-conditioning systems have focused on the system performance and efficiency enhancement when new alternative refrigerants are applied. Heat transfer characteristics during evaporation and condensation are investigated for several tube shapes and new alternative refrigerants including natural refrigerants. Efficiency of various compressors and performance of new expansion devices are also dealt with for better design of refrigeration/air conditioning system. In addition to the studies related with thermophysical properties of refrigerant mixtures, studies on new refrigerants are also carried out. It should be noted that the researches on two-phase flow are constantly carried out. (5) A review of the recent studies on absorption refrigeration system indicates that heat and mass transfer enhancement is the key factor in improving the system performance. Various experiments have been carried out and diverse simulation models have been presented. Study on the small scale absorption refrigeration system draws a new attention. Cooling tower was also the research object in the respect of enhancement its efficiency, and performance analysis and optimization was carried out. (6) Based on a review of recent studies on indoor thermal environment and building service systems, it is noticed that research issues have mainly focused on several innovative systems such as personal environmental modules, air-barrier type perimeterless system with UFAC, radiant floor cooling system, etc. New approaches are highlighted for improving indoor environmental conditions and minimizing energy consumption, various activities of building energy management and cost-benefit analysis for economic evaluation.
