ELP 계열 음성부호화기는 4.8kbps 내외의 전송률에서 양호한 음질을 얻을수 있으며 ITU-T, TIA/EIA 등 여러 국제 표준화 기구를 통해 다양한 응용분야에서 표준화가 이루어졌다. 이중에서 G.723.1은 멀티미디어 통신 환경하의 음성 전송 표준 보코더로 개발되었으며 G.723.1은 5.3kbps/6.3kbps의 이중 전송률을 갖는 구조로 현재 별정 통신으로 상용화되는 인터넷폰과 그 외의 이동 통신용 보코더로 사용되고 있다. G.723.1에서 사용되는 LSP 파라미터는 일정한 스펙트럼 민감도와 낮은 스펙트럼 왜곡을 보인다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 알고리즘은 음성신호의 에너지가 대개 낮은 주파수에 분포한다는 특징을 이용하여 대역폭을 가변으로 조정하였다. 실험결과, 부호화기 전체 계산시간은 약 6%의 감소하였다.

Pilot Point Method (PPM) is one of the popular methods to search hydraulic conductivities in the inverse method using groundwater flow equations. In this study, the Simultaneous Search based Pilot Point Method (SSBM) was applied with diverse information (e.g. hydraulic heads and/or tracer concentration) applications over previously developed sensitivity based Pilot Point Method (e.g. D-optimality based Pilot Point Method: DBM). In the case of DBM, due to the minimized the variance size, tracer concentration can be recognized as a tool to control the searching space of hydraulic conductivities. SSBM reduced the procedure of hydraulic conductivity searching, though it produced more variance for exploring hydraulic conductivities. In addition, SSBM was dependent on the initial hydraulic conductivity values for search finalized hydraulic conductivities. When tracer concentration was applied, searching hydraulic conductivities was more preferable than only when hydraulic head was applied. Applications of various data for searching hydraulic conductivities is recommended as a more efficient way.

신호교차로의 서비스수준은 미국의 HCM 방식을 전세계적으로 준용하고 있으며, 우리나라도 1985년 미국 HCM을 기본으로 하여 우리나라의 특성을 반영한 보정계수 값들을 수정하여 지금까지 사용하고 있는 것이 현실이다. 하지만 한국 도로용량편람의 모태가 된 미국 HCM은 이미 94년 1차 수정판에 이어, 이를 더욱 보완해서 HCM 2000을 발간하여 실용화 단계에 있는 반면 92년에 발간된 한국도로용량편람은 발간 이후 빠른 속도로 변화해온 국내의 교통, 도로, 차량 특성과 다양해진 도로시설 유형의 변화를 신호교차로 서비스수준 분석에 적절히 반영하지 못하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 신호교차로 서비스수준 결정에 관한 연구의 기초작업으로 기존의 신호교차로 서비스수준 분석방법의 문제점을 보완하기 위한 새로운 분석방법론을 제시하였다. 이를 위해 한국 도로용량 편람과 미국 HCM 2000의 서비스수준 분석방법론 부분을 면밀히 비교 분석하고 두 나라의 지체식에 포함된 공통적인 변수(주기(C), 포화도(v/c), 용량(c), 녹색시간비(g/C))에 대한 민감도 분석과 미국 HCM 2000에 추가로 도입된 변수들에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행함으로서 한국 도로용량 편람의 문제점을 고찰하고 운전자의 행태나 도로의 기하조건이 외국의 경우와는 다른 우리나라 실정을 반영한 한국형 신호 교차로 서비스수준 정립 방안의 필요성을 제시하였다.

The study was conducted to develope a rapid method for the detection of Yersinia enterocolitica in spring water and vegetables via multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique using ail, yst, uirF and subgenus-specific Y16S primers. Specificity and sensitivity of multiplex PCR and application of best primers for the detection of Y. enterocolitica from spring water and vegetables were investigeted. Y. enterocolitica ATCC 27729 strains gave 356 bP and 200 bp (Y16S) and 134 bp (yst) bands. but Y. enterocolitica ATCC 9610 and ATCC 23715 strains gave 200 bp and 134 bp bands.In the meanwhile, non-pathogenic Yersinia species, such as Y. frederikseni, Y. inter-media, Y. kristenseni and Y. pseudotuberculosis gave only single 200 bp band, and other bacteria including Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC 25392, Shigella dysenteri. Staphylococcu aureus ATCC 25923 and Listeria mo-nocytogenes ATCC 19111 did not show any bands. Among primers, yst and Y16S primer showed the best sensitivity. Seven CFU/mL Y. enterocolitica cells could be detected with yst and Y16S primers and the sensitivity was significantly improved by the further 2nd PCR after 38 cycles of first PCR amplication. Spring water, cabbage and mushroom were inoculated with Y. enterocolitica to determine the sensitivity of multiplex-PCR for the rapid detection of Y. enterocolitica. Multiplex-PCR assay could detect 7 or 70 cells in spring water and vegetables using whole cell lysate with repeating PCR amplication.

Five different enrichment methods were studied to find an optimal method to recover Yersinia enterocolitica from swine feed samples. When the recovery of Y. enterocolitica GER-C (serotype O:3) strain was studied at 1000 CFU/g feed, phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) enrichment at $4^{\circ}C$ and PBS plus sorbitol and bile salts (PSB) enrichment at $4^{\circ}C$ and $21^{\circ}C$ were not effective (< 22%). In contrast, both irgasan-ticarcillin-potassium chlorate (ITC) and tryptic soy broth plus polymyxin B sulfate and novobiocin (TSBPN) enrichment methods showed a full recovery (100%) at 100-1000 CFU/g feed. At 10 CFU/g feed, both ITC and TSBPN methods still recovered the strain (> 50%). In recovery of ATCC 9610 (serotype O:8) strain, TSBPN method was more sensitive than any other methods (P < 0.05) at 1000 CFU/g feed. Using TSBPN method, the strain was still recovered at 100 CFU/g feed, but not at 10 CFU/g feed. With its sensitivity and relatively simple recipe, TSBPN was most desirable method to recover Y. enterocolitica from swine feed samples.

하나로(HANARO)에서 Mo-99을 생산하기 위한 LEU(Low Enriched Uranium) 표적 설계를 하였다. 표적길이 및 조사위치에 따른 Mo-99의 생성수율(Ci $^{99}$Mo/gU) 변화를 분석하였으며, 표적 설계를 위하여 표적 두께, 반경크기, 밀도, 연료물질등을 채택하여 이들에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였으며, 수행결과 생성수율에 가장 영향을 미치는 설계변수는 표적 두께와 밀도로 나타났다. 표적 연료로 어떤 물질을 선택하던 거의 같은 생성수율을 나타내므로 핵적으로는 같은 성능을 나타냄을 확인하였다. 또한 열수력학 조건과 연간생산량을 만족하는 표적 핵연료 집합체 설계가 가능함을 확인하였다.

The aim of this study is to compare the sensitivity of both two NCI-H292 and A549 cell types to acute inflammatory responses induced by cigarette smoke. For this, we treated two kinds of smoke fractions derived from 2R4F reference cigarettes: total particulate matter(TPM) collected onto a Cambridge filter pad and gas/vapor phase(GVP) prepared by bubbling through in buffer solution. When we measured cellular cytotoxicity by neutral red uptake assay after treatment for 24 hours, TPM and GVP induced cytotoxic effect in a dose-dependent manner in the range of 10-$100{\mu}g$/mL and 60-$300 {\mu}g$/mL., respectively, in both cell types without any cellular difference. Additionally, when we examined acute inflammatory responses by analyzing cytokines secreted into culture media including tumor necrosis factor-$\alpha$ (TNF-$\alpha$), interleukin-8(IL-8), and transforming growth factor-$\alpha$(TGF-$\alpha$) as well as matrix metalloproteinase-1(MMP-1), the treatment with smoke fractions increased those marker proteins in a dose-dependent manner in NCI-H292. Meanwhile, in A549 cells only MMP-1 was observed to be increased in a dose-dependent fashion. Collectively, our data indicate that NCI-H292 cell type is more sensitive to cigarette smoke-induced inflammatory response than A549 cells. This suggests that NCI-H292 could be useful as an in vitro evaluation tool to assess harmful effects of cigarette smoke.

Cronobacter muytjensii is an important foodborne pathogen as a potential risk in infant formula powder (IFP). To develop a new and sensitive method for the detection of Cronobacter spp. in IFP, an immunoglobulin G (IgG) specific for C. muytjensii (formerly known as Enterobacter sakazakii ATCC 51329) was developed. Further, an indirect noncompetitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (INC-ELISA) was developed by using the anti-C. muytjensii IgG. As a result, this newly developed INC-ELISA method was found very sensitive for C. muytjensii with detection limit of $6.5{\times}10^3CFU/ml$ in pure culture and 1 cell/25 g of IFP. This INC-ELISA method also displayed excellent specificity for C. muytjensii showing no cross-reactivity with other strains of Cronobacter genus and 11 other foodborne pathogenic strains. These results show that the developed INC-ELISA method was very sensitive, efficient, and rapid for the detection of C. muytjensii. Hence, this method could be applied to the development of diagnostic kits for the rapid and easy detection of C. muytjensii.

Due to the high demand on energy resources accompanied by continuing industrialization and urbanization, the world marine transportation of crude and product oils is being gradually increased. In Korea, we are exposed to the large-scale marine oil spill accidents because a very large oil tanker of 300,000 tonnage must enter Korean Ports every day to meet the domestic demand on oils. Although we are exerting our strength to reduce the probability of marine oil pollution accidents, a unrestorable oil spill is to occur owing to human errors, severe weather conditions, or combined causes. Thus, area contingency plan equipped with appropriate management system for response and restoration for the worst case discharge scenario must be entirely prepared to protect mine environments and coastal resources. In particular, we are focusing on the Environmental Sensitivity Index Map(ESI Map) to reduce the environmental consequences of both spills and clean-up efforts by specifying protection Priorities in advance and identifying in-situ response strategies. In this paper, Korean ESI Map is introduced with brief definition of sensitivity to oiling and main features of the software developed hitherto.
