As Gyoto Agreement, the Climate Change Agreement, has become effective, total weight restriction on waste has started in each country and environment issue becomes one of the most important global issues. Therefore, environmental logistics became important matter, and industries need to establish production system for environmental conscious products and services. In this paper, we compare and analyze environmental conscious logistics activity(ECLA) that affect Carbon Dioxide Discharge(CDD) and packaging waste caused by logistics activity in Korea and Japan. We also propose the optimal alternative to the problem by this comparison and analysis.

Life-Cycle Engineering(LCE) is a decision-making methodology that considers environmental and cost needs during the product life-cycle. Environmental conscious design and manufacturing has become more and more important and it has been enforced by governmental regulations and used as trade restriction. LCE involves integrating environmental consideration into new product development including design, material selection, manufacturing processes and distribution of the product to the consumers, plus the end-of-life management such as disassembly, material recovery, remanufacturing of the product after discarding it. In this paper, a state-of-the-art survey of LCE is presented.

A total of 113 Vibrio sp. strains were examined for plasmid content which were subjected to digestion with restriction enzymes. About the 55% Vibrio spp. have the plasmid more than one. Most of these plasmid various derivatives ranged from $2.4\;kb{\sim}23\;kb$, especially two strains of V. mimicus and one strain of V. furnissii carried one high-molecular weight plasmid (molecular weight ranging between $70\;kb{\sim}100\;kb$). Results of restriction analysis for plasmid of this three strains were by no means the rule. For detection of tdh and ctx gene, the virulence factor involved in the pathogenesis, we carried out the TDH and CT assay, PCR amplification, and hybridization. A total 11 strains were produced TDH, involved in 9 strains of V. parahaemolyticus and 1 strain of V. alginolyticus from clinical isolates and 1 strains of V. mimicus from environmental isolates. In the experiments of tdh gene detection, in all, 3 strains of V. parahaemolyticus from clinical isolates and 2 strains from environmental isolates could be successfully amplified in 400 bp by PCR. The PCR results were consistent with DNA hybridization tests. In the experiments of CT assay, in all, 3 strains of V. cholerae from clinical isolate and 1 strain of V. cholerae from environmental isolates were observed CT-producing. These CT-producing strains amplified in 302 bp by PCR for the detection of ctx gene. All CT-producing strains hybridized with digoxigenin-labeled DNA probe, while CT-negative strains did not hybridize. Also hybridization tests results for detection of ctx gene consistent with PCR.

Objectives For successful adoption of legislation controlling registration and assessment of chemical substances, it is important to obtain sufficient toxicological experimental evidence and other related information. It is also essential to obtain a sufficient number of predicted risk and toxicity results. Particularly, methods used in predicting toxicities of chemical substances during acquisition of required data, ultimately become an economic method for future dealings with new substances. Although the need for such methods is gradually increasing, the-required information about reliability and applicability range has not been systematically provided. Methods There are various representative environmental and human toxicity models based on quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSAR). Here, we secured the 10 representative QSAR-based prediction models and its information that can make predictions about substances that are expected to be regulated. We used models that predict and confirm usability of the information expected to be collected and submitted according to the legislation. After collecting and evaluating each predictive model and relevant data, we prepared methods quantifying the scientific validity and reliability, which are essential conditions for using predictive models. Results We calculated predicted values for the models. Furthermore, we deduced and compared adequacies of the models using the Alternative non-testing method assessed for Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals Substances scoring system, and deduced the applicability domains for each model. Additionally, we calculated and compared inclusion rates of substances expected to be regulated, to confirm the applicability. Conclusions We evaluated and compared the data, adequacy, and applicability of our selected QSAR-based toxicity prediction models, and included them in a database. Based on this data, we aimed to construct a system that can be used with predicted toxicity results. Furthermore, by presenting the suitability of individual predicted results, we aimed to provide a foundation that could be used in actual assessments and regulations.

The purpose of this paper is to measure the change of the production efficiency which may happen when environmental regulation incurs technological constraint in the process of production, and to compute the opportunity cost of pollution reduction with the lost products based on the change of efficiency. The patterns of production technoloy in the paper are divided into the technologies of strong disposability and weak disposabilty to grasp the effect of the technological constraint due to the environmental regulation. The endowment of the technolgical constraints in the process of production is considered to bring the greatest restriction on firm's production. When the environmental efficiencies of Korean regional manufactures were measured with linear programming model, the lost products related with the constraint of production technology that environmental regulation incurred, was average 148.1 billion dollar per year(5.87% of one year overall products) for total manufactures in 1991~1998. The ratio of the lost products for total products was spread from 0.78% to 1l.08%. The average lost products of 15 regions were changed from 4.66% to 18.35% of total products. Generally the environmental efficiency index of regional manufactures being decreased continuously since 1991, it is estimated that the environmental performance of Korean manufactures has been more and more deteriorating.

폐가스 처리용 바이오필터의 핵심 요소 기술은 생촉매(미생물), 담체, 설계 운전 기술 및 진단 관리 기술이다. 특히, 바이오필터의 성능은 부하 조건과 바이오필터 내 미생물 군집 구조에 의해 영향을 받는다. 지금까지 바이오필터의 미생물 연구는 대부분 배양법을 기초로 하여 수행되어 왔으나, 최근에 보다 신속하고 정확하게 미생물 군집을 분석할 수 있는 방법들이 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 생리적, 생화학적 및 분자생물학적 미생물 군집 분석 방법과 이를 활용한 바이오필터의 미생물 군집 특성을 조사한 연구사례를 소개하고, 미생물 군집 분석법의 바이오필터에 적용 가능성에 대해 고찰하였다. Community-level physiological profile 방법은 시료 중에 포함된 종속영양미생물의 탄소기질 이용능력을 기반으로 군집 특성을 조사하는 것이며, Phospholipid fatty acid analysis는 미생물 세포막 지방산을 분석하여 군집 특성을 조사하는 방법이다. 환경시료로부터 직접 추출한 DNA를 활용하는 분자생물학적 분석법에는 "partial community DNA analysis"와 "whole community DNA analysis"가 있다. 전자의 방법은 PCR 과정에 의해 증폭시킨 염기서열을 분석하는 것으로 ribosomal operon 유전자가 가장 많이 활용되었다. 이 방법은 다시 PCR fragment cloning 및 genetic fingerprinting으로 구분되며, genetic fingerprinting 방법으로는 denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism, ribosomal intergenic spacer analysis 및 random amplified polymorphic DNA 방법으로 세분화된다. 추출된 전체 군집의 DNA를 분석하는 방법에는 total genomic cross-DNA hybridization, 총 추출 DNA의 열 변성/재결합 방법 및 밀도구배를 이용하여 추출한 DNA를 분획화하는 방법 등이 있다.

플랑크톤의 종다양성은 특정 지역의 수계환경 변화 모니터링에 있어 중요 생태지표로써, 환경 평가에 유용한 정보로 사용되고 있다. 기존의 종다양성 평가는 주로 형태학적 형질에 근거한 종동정을 통해 이루어졌으나, 많은 시간과 전문성을 필요로 하고 연구자의 주관적 판단에 의존하는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 채수된 환경시료에 대해 보다 빠르고 정확한 플랑크톤 종다양성을 파악하기 위하여 분자마커를 활용한 분자모니터링 기법을 도입하였다. 서낙동강(김해교)과 남해 연얀(남해도) 정점에서 각각 채수된 환경시료에서 DNA를 추출한 후 18S nuclear ribosomal RNA 유전자를 대상으로 중합효소연쇄반응을 수행하였다. 클로닝 과정을 통해 만들어진 각각의 클론 라이브러리에서 클론을 무작위로 선택하여 제한효소절편다형성 패턴분석을 한 후 특이성을 가지는 클론을 선별하였다. 김해교에서는 60개 블론을 대상으로 44개의 특이적 클론을 선별하였고 남해에서는 150개 클론을 대상으토 27개의 클론을 선별하였다. 이틀 클론틀에 대한 염기서열 분석결과 다양한 계통분류군에 속승하는 플랑크톤의 종조성 결과를 보여주었다(김해교: Heterokontophyta(7), Ciliophora(23), Dinophyta(l), Chytridiomycota(l), Rotifera(I), Arthropoda (11), 남해: Ciliophora( 4), Dinophyta(3), Crγptophyta(l)，Arthropoda(19)). 본 연구를 통하여 분자마커를 활용한 분자모니터링 기법이 기존 형태학적 형질에 근거한 분석이 가지는 한계를 보완하여 채수된 환경시료의 종조성 분석에 효율적으로 사용될 수 있다고 판단된다.

Many of researches have revealed that human intestinal microbiota is related to health. Several diseases like obesity, diabetes, and hypertension are affected by the microbiota directly and indirectly. So, interventions with food and drug have been tried to change a composition of the microbiota to better condition. However, few natural medicines have elucidated to date. To understand an influence on microbiota by plant materials including Glycyrrhizae Radix, the extract of medicines were administered to mice and the feces were collected before and after the administration. The feces were analyzed by terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP). The changes in composition of mice gut microbiota were detected and analyzed. The data could be utilized to further study about biological activities of the plant medicines.
