These studies were carried out to investigate the effect of gonadotropins (GTH), fetal calf serum (FCS), porcine follicular fluid (pFF) and FCS and pFF fractions obtained by the gel filtration on in vitro maturation of porcine follicular fluid. When the oocytes were cultured in TCM-199, the maturation rate was higher in pFF than in FCS in both with or without GTH and in pFF the maturation rate was higher in with GTH than in without GTH. In case of without GTH, pFF increased maturation rates in TCM-199, but not in Whitten's medium (WM). When the oocytes were cultured in WM supplemented with FCS fractions, the maturation rate(51.6%) of oocytes was significantly (P<0.05) higher in fraction B (about 30∼70 kDa) than in control, FCS and other fractions. When oocytes were cultured in WM supplemented with pFF fractions, fractions B (about 30∼70 kDa) and D (about 1∼10 kDa) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than in control, pFF and other fractions. In conclusiion, the addition of gonadotropins into the maturation media was effective for oocyte maturation. The addition of pFF was more effective than addition of FCS for maturation of porcine oocytes in vitro. And fraction B from FCS and fractions B and D from pFF was effective for oocyte maturation.

The drinking water supply in Cheju entirely depends on the ground water and recently the polluted ground water bores are increasing. In 1993 Cheju Province Health-Environment Institute reported that the ground water quality of 26 of 98 bores under the drinking water quality standard. Therefore there are many investigation in the needs of the nitrate removal in the drinking water in the regin with no alternative water resources. In this study, the following results are obtained to remove the nitrate in biofilm filtration process in which uses ethanol as external carbon source. Over 90% of nitrate is removed after 10 days of experiment. The nitrate removal rate on filtration velocity is about 100% at 50m/day and 100m/day, and about 56% at 200m/day. The removal rate is reduced in 27% at 400m/day. Using ethanol as the external carbon source, denitrification kinetic is 1st-order. Denitrification constant k is 8.004($hr^{-1}$). The amount of the denitrificated-Nitrogen is increased as the contact time increased. Deoxydation rate constant ${\gamma}$ is 11.895($hr^{-1}$). 0.968g of ethanol(as TOC) is needed to remove 1g of nitrate and 0.291g is required to remove 1g of dissolved oxygen.

Purpose: Correct estimation of Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is very important for an accurate clinical assessment of the kidney function. This study compares four GFR markers, a serum creatinine-based estimation using MDRD formula, Cystatin-C, Cr-51 EDTA 2 samples and 6 samples. Materials and Methods: Serum creatinine concentrations, Cystatin-C serum concentrations and Cr-51 EDTA clearance are measured in 43 patients who received or donated kidney. Results: The correlation coefficient between serum based estimated GFR (MDRD) and Cr-51 EDTA 6 samples was 0.817 (p<0.01). The correlation coefficient between Cystatin-C based GFR and EDTA 6 samples was 0.7322 (p<0.01). Regression analysis showed a statistically significant correlation between Cr-51 EDTA 2 samples and 6 samples (r=0.971, p<0.01). Mean value and ${\pm}2SD$ for the difference between Cr-51 EDTA 2 samples and 6 samples were 4.7 mL/min and ${\pm}9.3$ respectively. Conclusions: The estimation of two samples Cr-51 EDTA showed that the method can be simplified by reducing blood samples without losing its high accuracy.

Proportion of Tegillarca granosa surviving after 2-6 hrs air exposure with 12 hrs interval at $20^{\circ}C$ and $28^{\circ}C$ for 20 days showed 85-100%, 80-100%, respectively. The survival rate was somewhat lower at high temperature but not significant (p < 0.05). Subsequent exposures for 7-9 days showed survival rate of 8.0-24.1% at $20^{\circ}C$ and $28^{\circ}C$. Oxygen consumption rates and filtration rates were significantly higher for 4 to 6 hrs exposures, compared with the preceding exposures. On the other hand, at $28^{\circ}C$, oxygen consumption rates in adult granular ark for 6 hrs exposure during 20 days had significantly decreased. Filtration rates in study groups increased a little over extended period of exposure, compared with those in control groups, and were similar irrelevant to the time of exposure and size of experimental animals. It is concluded, in view of their viability and oxygen consumption rate during air exposure, that ark shells have quite a high resistance to air exposure with their limited range of responses.

Experiments on granular filtration of polydispersed aerosols were conducted to determine the changes in pressure drop necessary to maintain a given gas flow rate as filter becomes clogged with deposited particles. Among the various variables which affect the increase in the pressure drop during the filtration, the most important one was found to be the size of the deposited aerosol particles. It was shown that for a given extent of the total deposition, the extent of increase in pressure drop increases with the decrease of the deposited aerosol size. For the general case where the deposited particles have different sizes, a procedure was proposed for correlating and predicting experimental results on pressure drop. This procedure was found applicable to bidispersed aerosols and polydispersed aerosols.

The contaminant seperation performance of fitters has been widely investigated for many years. However, most of the proposed filter assessment techniques have proven disappointing for practical use. Although the Multipass (Beta) Filtration test method (ISO 4572) provides valuable information in assessing fi ters, it has a limitation on evaluating the increasing family of low-flow and high Beta filters. The limitation stems from two main sources: the over simplified theoretical model and the inherently complicated procedure in analysis of data. Hence a new advanced filtration theory, the Beta Prime developed on a draw-down test basis is applied to predict field operating characteristics of a filter for tractor hydraulic systems in this study.

Small scale D-water treatment plant(WTP) where has slow sand filtration was using raw water containing high concentration of manganese (> 2mg/l). The raw water was pre-chlorinated for oxidation of manganese and resulted in difficulty for filtration. Thus, sometimes manganese concentration and turbidity were over the water quality standard. Two stage rapid manganese sand filtration pilot plant which can treat $200m^3/d$ was operated to solve manganese problem in D-WTP. The removal rate of manganese and turbidity were about 38% and 84%, respectively without pH control of raw water. However, when pH of raw water was controlled to average 7.9 with NaOH solution, the removal rate of manganese and turbidity increased to 95.0% and 95.5%, respectively and the water quality of filtrate satisfied the water quality standard. Manganese content in sand was over 0.3mg/g which is Japan Water Association Guideline. The content in upper filter was 5~10 times more than that of middle and lower during an early operation but the content in middle and lower filter was increased more and more with increase of operation time. This result means that the oxidized manganese was adsorbed well in sand. Rapid manganese sand filter was backwashed periodically. The water quality of backwash wastewater was improved by sedimentation. Thus, turbidity and manganese concentration decreased from 29.4NTU to 3.09NTU and from 1.7mg/L to 0.26mg/L, respectively for one day. In Jar test of backwash wastewater with PAC(Poly-aluminum chloride), optimum dosage was 30mg/L. Because the turbidity of filtrate was high as 0.76NTU for early 5 minute after backwash, filter-to-waste should be used after backwash to prevent poor quality water.

Riverbank filtration is a kind of artificial aquifer recharge for the fresh water supply. By construction of several production wells penetrating the riverbank, surface water withdrawn from the river would pass riverbed. This extracted water is well known to be cooler than surface water in summer and warmer than surface water in winter, showing more constant water temperature. This characteristic of extracted water is applied to geothermal energy utilization. Prediction of the annual temperature variation of filtrated water is the major concern in this study. In Daesan-myeon, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea, riverbank filtration facility has been on its operation for municipal water supply and thermal energy utilization since 2006. Appropriate hydraulic and thermal properties were estimated for flow and heat transfer modeling with given pumping rate and location. With the calibrated material properties and boundary conditions, we numerically reproduced measured head and temperature variation with acceptable error range. In the numerical simulation, the change of saturation ratio and river stage caused by rainfall was calculated and the resulting variation of thermal capacity and thermal conductivity was considered. Simulated temperature profiles can be used to assess the possible efficiency of geothermal energy utilization using riverbank filtration facility. Influence of pumping rate, pumping location on the extracted water temperature will be studied.

본 연구에서는 2020년 6월에서 9월까지 4개월 동안 우리나라 하천 중 금강 백제보에 주로 서식하는 말조개, 펄조개와 대칭이를 채집하여 서식처 특성을 살펴보았고, 이들의 여과율을 실내 실험을 통하여 측정하여 검량선을 산출하였다. 백제보에서 채집된 말조개, 펄조개, 대칭이는 24시간 동안 평균 154.84 ㎍ L^-1의 Chl-a를 제거하였으며, 이는 실내 수조(2 L) 내의 식물플랑크톤 C. vulgaris(초기 Chl-a=168.34 ㎍ L^-1)를 약 24시간 만에 제거할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 사용한 말조개, 펄조개, 대칭이가 연평균 4만 마리가 서식할 경우(Lee et al., 2020), 6월 한달 동안 예상되는 Chl-a의 저감 효과는 10.55%으로 예측되고 7월의 경우 34.88%, 8월의 경우 20.14%, 9월의 경우 46.21%로 평균 27.94%의 저감 효과를 예상할 수 있다. 이러한 결과는 간접적으로 이매패류가 서식지에서 효과적으로 Chl-a를 제거할 수 있을 가능성을 제시한다. 실제로 이매패류를 통하여 수생태계의 조류 제어능력을 평가하기 위해서는 이매패류뿐만 아니라 식물플랑크톤, 수생식물, 저서생물, 퇴적물, 유속 등의 작용들을 종합적으로 고려해야 하지만 본 연구에서는 이매패류의 여과율과 이에 따른 Chl-a에 저감율에 기반하여 수생태계 조류 제어능력을 산정하였다. 본 연구 결과들은 차후 다양한 요인과 관점에서의 통합된 연구에 기초적인 정보를 제공할 것으로 사료된다.

The effectiveness of add-on tertiary treatment processes for the polishing of the effluent of a biological nutrient removal (BNR) system from a modified $A^2/O$ process has been examined under the field condition with pilot-scale plants. The add-on treatment processes of 1) combined biofilm anoxic reactor and sand filtration, and 2) two-stage denitrification filter had been operated with various operating conditions. The experimental results indicated that two-stage denitrification filter could produced a better polished tertiary effluent. Filtration rate of $150m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ for the 2-stage denitrifying filter could decrease the nitrate removal probably due to shorter detention time that caused insufficient reaction for denitrification. Two stage denitrification filter operated with M/N ratio of 3.0 and filtration rate of $100m^3/m^2{\cdot}d$ produced the tertiary effluent with nitrate and SS concentraitons of 2.8 mg/L and 2.3 mg/L, respectively. When the operating temperature reduced $30^{\circ}C$ to $18^{\circ}C$, $NO_3{^-}-N$ removal efficiency decreased from 73% to 68%.
