스트론튬선택성을 갖는 크로마토그래피용 수지인 $Sr-Spec^{TM}$을 이용한 환경시료중 토양시료와 물시료에 대한 방사성 스트론들 분리를 고찰하였다. 이 수지는 질산수용액에서 스트론튬과 큰 결합능력을 가졌으며, 다량의 칼슘원소의 존재에서도 스트론튬분리를 할 수 있는 선택성을 가졌다. 그러나 K나 Ba와 같은 방해원소에 의해서는 스트론튬 추출능력이 감소하였고, 때문에 토양시료중의 스트론튬 분석시에는 이러한 방해원소의 제거단계가 필요하였다. 그러나 물시료증 스트론튬분석에서는 이 수지를 사용함으로써 간편하고 효율높게 분리할 수 있었다.

Three different ice core samples from Antarctica were analyzed to identify activity concentrations of radioactive isotopes. Tracking migration of radioactive isotopes to Antarctica can provide a key clue to understand global environmental changes caused by radiation exposures because the Antarctic ice cores can preserve unique characteristics of various environmental conditions. We are particularly interested in the $^{137}Cs$ nucleus, because it is closely related to radiation exposure from nuclear power plant accidents and nuclear bomb tests. With its half life of $30.17{\pm}0.03$ years, $^{137}Cs$ can also be used to assess the age of sedimentation occurring after around the year 1945. We selected three ice core samples, called Tarn8, Styx27, and H25, from different time periods; the Tarn8 sample is known to be from earlier than ~ 1000 AD, the Styx27 sample is approximately from the year 1945, and the H25 sample is from the year 2012. Radioactive isotope measurements of the ice core samples were performed using a 100% HPGe detector at Cheongpyeong Underground Radiation Laboratory (CURL). We measured the activity of $^{137}Cs$ in the H25 sample to be $0.98{\pm}0.82mBq/kg$. Although the activity has a large uncertainty mainly due to the limited sample quantity, the $^{137}Cs$ isotopes in the Antarctic ice core were measured for the first time in Korea.

본 연구는 최근 신규용수항목으로 인정된 환경개선용수 공급에 따른 편익을 경북 영덕군 영덕오십천을 사례로 조건부가치측정법(CVM)을 적용하여 측정하였다. 기존 CVM 방법론에 여행비용접근의 주요변수인 거리변수를 포함하여 시장영역을 설정하는데 활용하였으며, CV문항에 대한 저항응답들을 지불의사(WTP) 응답과 결합추정하여 잠재적 편의를 줄이고자 하였다. 실증분석결과 대상하천으로부터 먼 거리에 거주할수록 응답자들의 WTP도 적어지는 거리-소멸관계가 나타내었으며, 거리변수의 형태에 따라 WTP변화율도 달랐다. 나아가서 최장거리 거주자 범위 밖에서도 정의 WTP가 측정되어, 전국가구가 수혜자일 수 있음을 확인하였다. 다른 한편으로 전체표본, 저항응답 삭제 그리고 표본선택모형 추정 등 저항응답의 처리에 따라 제시금액 변수의 계수추정치가 상당히 차이가 났고, 결과적으로 표본 WTP도 저항응답 제외 표본은 2,000원 정도로 표본선택모형은 6,000원 정도로 측정되어 3배 정도의 차이가 나타났다.

The analysis and quantification of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) is crucial, as they initiate the biological removal of ammonia-nitrogen from sewage. Previous methods for analyzing the microbial community structure, which involve the plating of samples or culture media over agar plates, have been inadequate because many microorganisms found in a sewage plant are unculturable. In this study, to exclusively detect AOB, the analysis was carried out via denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis using a primer specific to the amoA gene, which is one of the functional genes known as ammonia monooxygenase. An AOB consortium (S1 sample) that could oxidize an unprecedented 100% of ammonia in 24 h was obtained from sewage sludge. In addition, real-time PCR was used to quantify the AOB. Results of the microbial community analysis in terms of carbon utilization ability of samples showed that the aeration tank water sample (S2), influent water sample (S3), and effluent water sample (S4) used all the 31 substrates considered, whereas the AOB consortium (S1) used only Tween 80, D-galacturonic acid, itaconic acid, D-malic acid, and $_L$-serine after 192 h. The largest concentration of AOB was detected in S1 ($7.6{\times}10^6copies/{\mu}l$), followed by S2 ($3.2{\times}10^6copies/{\mu}l$), S4 ($2.8{\times}10^6copies/{\mu}l$), and S3 ($2.4{\times}10^6copies/{\mu}l$).

Purpose In this study, the relationships among environmental information exchange with suppliers(EIES), green collaboration with suppliers, green learning by environmental information, the adoption of green supply-chain management techniques(AGSMT) (i.e., the green purchasing, product design and production, and the recovery of extra facilities and inventories), environmental performance, and the organizational performance of a firm were empirically investigated. Design/methodology/approach Data for this study were drawn from a survey of the current status of EIES levels and AGSMT usage observed in Korean manufacturing firms. In total, 500 organizations were randomly selected from a population of about 1,000 firms that are listed on the Korean stock market. In order to collect empirical data, this research administered questionnaires with the sample firms. Only chief production executives were selected as respondents. A questionnaire with a cover letter was mailed to each respondent. The survey was conducted during a 3-month period between March 2015 and June 2015. Finally, 78 valid data of the sample firms were collected. Findings The results of this study showed that EIES positively affects the green corporation and learning. According to the results, it was observed that both green corporation and green learning have a positive impact on the levels of AGSMT(i.e., the green purchasing, product design and production). It was also demonstrated that AGSMT has a direct positive impact on environmental performance. In examining the effects of environmental performance on the organizational performance of a firm, significant impact was found.

유기인제 농약을 70% acetone으로 추출한 다음 dlchloromethane 층으로 옮겨 추출물을 florisil로 충진된 open-column에서 chromatography를 행하였다. 마지막 추출물을 nitrogen-phosphorus detector(GC/NPD)을 가진 GC로 분석하였다. Narrow-bore capillary GC(Ultra-2)에 대해 18 가지의 유기인제 농약의 회수율이 88.7%에서 100.0%에 달하였다. 본 분석 방법의 최소 검출 준위는 0.019 - 0.035 mg/kg 이었으며 sample throughput(추출, open-column chro-matography 및 GC 분석)도 상당히 개선되었다.(sample당 8시간)

During April and May, 1973 rain water samples were collected five different times in nine selected areas of Seoul city. The pH factor and bacteria counts were measured. The following results were obtained. 1. The lowest pH was 6.18 at Moon Rae Dong and the highest was 6.30 at Jong Am Dong. This difference is not significant at the 0. 05 level. 2. The pH factor did not vary significantly with the time of sample collection. 3. Dae Bang Dong had the highest Total Plate Count of $1.9\times 10^3/ml$, Bo Moon Dong and An Kook Dong had the lowest Total Plate Count at $4.1\times 10^2/ml$. 4. The total plate count varied greatly according to the time of sample collection. This result can be used to remove are pollutants. 5. The Total plate Count is nearly inversely proportional to the length of time during which the sample is collected.

The peels of Carya cathayensis Sarg. (PCCS) were treated under subcritical water conditions ($130^{\circ}C$ to $280^{\circ}C$ for 0 to 120 min). The extract from PCCS included reducing sugar, proteins, and compounds with radical scavenging activity. Addressing the reducing sugar that is a resource of bioethanol, we could maximize the reducing sugar under the subcritical water ($190^{\circ}C$ for 60 min) and obtain 0.24 g/g-sample together with 9.7 units/mg-sample of radical scavenging activity. The obtained extract was estimated to correspond to 1 L of bioethanol/100 g-sample. It was therefore considered that the treatment by subcritical water could yield reducing sugar and natural compounds with radical scavenging activity.
