Soil quality has been regarded as an important factor for maintaining sustainability of ecosystem. Main purpose of this research was i) to select minimum factor for predicting biomass, and ii) to calculate soil quality index for biomass according to soil chemical properties. Result showed that soil pH, electrical conductivity (EC), soil organic matter (SOM), cation exchange capacity (CEC), and available phosphorus are minimum data set for calculating biomass production in soil. Selected representative soil chemical properties were evaluated for soil quality index and rated from 1 to 5 (1 is the best for biomass production). Percentage of each grade in terms of biomass production in national wide was 14.52, 35.23, 33.03, 6.47, 10.75% respectively. Although, only soil chemical properties were evaluated for calculating optimum soil quality, result of this research can be useful to understand basic protocol of soil quality assessment in national wide.

염소(Chlorine)는 지구상에서 가장 많이 생산되고 사용되는 화학물질 중 하나로, 비가연성 물질이지만 독성, 오존층 파괴 및 활발한 반응성을 지닌 물질이며, 현대사회는 염소와 그 유도체의 사용 없이 윤택한 삶을 유지하는 것이 거의 불가능할 정도로 의약품과 세정제, 방취제, 살균제, 제초제, 살충제 및 플라스틱을 비롯하여 공산품의 40% 이상에 사용되고 있는 지구상의 대표적인 화학물질이다. 국내의 경우, 염소는 전국의 다양한 사업장(중소기업, 정수장, 운송회사 등)에서 취급 및 유통되고 있지만 관련 운송위험과 유해성 평가 연구가 부족하여, 국내외 염소누출 관련 사고에 대해 분석 및 염소 취급 및 유통에 대한 유해성 평가를 시도하였다. 특히 화학물질 운송위험지수를 국내 실정에 맞도록 모델화하였고, 액화 염소를 포함한 13종 화학물질의 운송위험성 모사를 통해 유해성 평가를 실시하였다. 이는 염소를 비롯한 다양한 화학물질에 대한 화학물질 운송위험지수 모델을 적용하여 정형화된 유통 유해성평가를 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

A composite iodine sorbent was obtained in the form of porous polymer matrix with activated carbon particles impregnated with triethylenediamine deposited on its surface. A comparative assessment of the radioactive methyliodide capturing efficiency by the composite sorbent and a sample of industrial charcoal sorbent was conducted. It was shown that under the selected testing conditions, the hydraulic resistance of the composite sorbent is lower, and the sorption capacity is higher than that of the industrial charcoal sorbent. A method for comparing the effectiveness of iodine sorbents, based on the calculation of the ratio of the sorption capacity index to the minimum capacity index, needed for the required purification degree was proposed.

암석내 화학종의 함량을 이용한 풍화지수는 암석의 풍화 정도와 2차 광물의 생성을 예측하는데 매우 효과적이다. 풍화의 과정은 암석의 종류에 따라 다르게 나타나는데 국내의 경우 화강암의 분포 면적이 넓은 이유로 풍화지수의 연구는 산성질 화성암에 편중되어 왔다. 이 연구는 쇄설성 퇴적암에 속하는 사암, 이암, 셰일의 전암분석(X-선 형광분석)을 이용하여 풍화지수들을 산정하고, 상관성 분석을 통해 지수들의 유의성을 검토하였다. 쇄설성 퇴적암 중 장석의 비중이 높게 나타나는 사암과 셰일의 경우 장석의 풍화를 나타내주는 Wp, CIA, CIW, PIA 풍화지수가 높은 유의성을 보였다. 화학적 변질지수(CIA)는 풍화경로와 변질점토의 생성을 예측할 수 있는 장점이 있으나 풍화 정도의 변별력을 높이기 위해 화학적 풍화지수를 동시에 고려하는 것이 효과적이다. 탄산염 계열의 광물이 포함된 경우 이에 대한 효과를 산정식을 통해 제거하지 못하였고 정확한 풍화지수 산정을 위해 X-선 회절분석 등을 통해 탄산염 물질의 함량이 높은 시료는 분석과정에서 배제해야 한다.

In this study, the real site test conditions were considered and applied to suggest the improved test method for geosynthetics chemical resistance. For this, index and performance tests were done to specify and regulate the more approached test method. Accelerated model by Arrhenius equation was applied to interpretate the experimental data. Through analysis and comparison the overall experimental results, we could suggest the possibility and setup the advanced chemical resistance test method for geosynthetics.

Background: Cell-free DNA circulating in blood is a candidate biomarker for malignant tumors. Unlike uniformly truncated DNA released from apoptotic non diseased cells, DNA released from necrotic cancer cells varies in size. Objectives: To measure the DNA integrity index in serum and the absolute DNA concentration to assess their clinical utility as potential serum biomarkers for colorectal carcinoma (CRC) compared to CEA and CA19-9. Materials and Methods: Fifty patients with CRC, 10 with benign colonic polyps and 20 healthy sex and age matched volunteers, were investigated by real time PCR of ALU repeats (ALU q-PCR) using two sets of primers (115 and 247 bp) amplifying different lengths of DNA fragments. The DNA integrity index was calculated as the ratio of q-PCR results of ALU 247/ALU 115bp. Results: Serum DNA integrity was statistically significantly higher in CRC patients compared to the benign and control groups (p<0.001). ROC curves for differentiating CRC patients from normal controls and benign groups had areas under curves of 0.90 and 0.85 respectively. Conclusions: The DNA integrity index is superior to the absolute DNA concentration as a potential serum biomarker for screening and diagnosis of CRC. It may also serve as an indicator for monitoring the progression of CRC patients. Combining CEA and CA19-9 with either of the genetic markers studied is better than either of them alone.

Silicon oxide thin films have been deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition in SiH4 and N2O plasma along the variation of the gas flow ratio. Optical emission spectroscopy was employed to monitor the plasma and ellipsometry was employed to obtain refractive index of the deposited thin film. The atomic ratio of Si, O, and N in the film was obtained using XPS depth profiling. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy was used to analyze structures of the films. RI decreased with the increase in N2O/SiH4 gas flow ratio. We noticed the increase in the Si-O-Si bond angles as the N2O/SiH4 gas flow ratio increased, according to the analysis of the Si-O-Si stretching peak between 950 and 1,150 cm-1 in the wavenumber. We observed a correlation between the optical emission intensity ratio of (ISi+ISiH)/IO. The OES intensity ratio is also related with the measured refractive index and chemical composition ratio of the deposited thin film. Therefore, we report the added value of OES data analysis from the plasma related to the thin film characteristics in the PECVD process.

Preparation of several new spirocyclic mercapto derivatives is described. Thiol protection on multi-carbonyl compounds allows of high sulfur content necessary to induce high refractive index. Condensation of 1,3-dimercapto-2-propanol and cyclohexanone followed by successive oxidation and thioacetalization affords a dispirocycle with four sulfurs. Selective S,S-protection of cyclohexane-1,4-dione is achieved with 1,3-dimercapto-2-propanol and 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol to provide dispirocycles with four sulfurs. Olefine-oxidation of norbornene gives a useful dialdehyde intermediate which is transformed to 1,3-dithiolane for a linearly-bound-cyclic molecule. Refractive index of linearly-bound-cycles was below 1.60 and dispirocycles exhibited high refractive index of 1.57-1.69.

The effect of the NCO index and catalyst type on the thermal stability of poly(urethane-isocyanurate) (PUIR) foams was investigated to identify a method for enhancing the flame resistance of PUIR. PUIR foams were prepared using 4,4-diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) and [(diethylene glycol)adipate]diol, which were synthesized by esterification of adipic acid and diethylene glycol. Dabco K-15, Dabco TMR-30, and Toyocat RX-5 were used as the catalysts for trimerization and gelation. The amount of urea and isocyanurate groups in PUIR was semi-quantitatively determined by normalizing their absorbance with the phenyl absorbance measured by FT-IR. The normalization data showed that Dabco TMR-30 effectively generated isocyanurate groups in PUIR. As a result, Dabco TMR-30 effectively raised the decomposition temperature and increased the 800 K and 900 K residues of the PUIR foam synthesized with an NCO index of 200.
