For ensuring nuclear safeguards, we report the analytical signal-detection performance of thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS) with continuous heating for the measurement of isotopic ratios in samples containing ultra-trace amounts of uranium. As methods for detecting uranium signals, peak-jumping mode using a single detector and static mode using multiple detectors were examined with U100 (10% ²³⁵U-enriched) uranium standard samples in the femtogram-to-picogram range. Uranium isotope ratios, n(²³⁵U)/n(²³⁸U), were measured down to levels of 1 fg and 3 fg in static and peak-jumping modes, respectively, while n(²³⁴U)/n(²³⁸U) and n(²³⁶U)/n(²³⁸U) values were measured down to levels of 100 fg in both modes. In addition, the dependency of the ²³⁸U signal intensity on sample quantity exhibited similar tendencies in both modes. The precisions of the isotope ratios obtained in the static mode over all sample ranges used in this study were overall slightly higher than those obtained in peak-jumping mode. These results indicate that isotope ratio measurements by TIMS with continuous heating are almost independent of the detection method, i.e., peak-jumping mode or static mode, which is characteristic of isotope-ratio measurements using the TIMS method with continuous heating. TIMS with continuous heating is advantageous as it exhibits the properties of multiple detectors within a single detector, and is expected to be used in various fields in addition to ensuring nuclear safeguards.

Objectives : The present study was conducted to evaluate the analgesic effects of automatically controlled heating acupuncture(ACHA) using 2 different pain models(acute pain and neuropathic pain) and 2 different stimulation conditions (heating $41.5^{\cdot}C$ and heating $44.5^{\cdot}C$) in Sprague-Dawley rats. Methods : Tail flick latency(TFL) to a noxious radiant heat stimulus in lightly anesthetized rats was measured before and after ACHA stimulation for 5-min at the Zusanli(ST36) acupoint. For the neuropathic surgery, the right superior caudal trunk was resected at the level between S1 and S2 spinal nerves innervating the tail. Two weeks after the nerve injury, ACHA stimulation($41.5^{\cdot}C$ or $44.5^{\cdot}C$) was delivered to Zusanli(ST36) for 5 min. The behavioral signs of warm allodynia were evaluated by the tail immersion test (i.e. immersing the tail in warm $water(40^{\cdot}C)$ and measuring the latency to an abrupt tail movement) before and after the ACHA stimulation. Results : In the TFL test, ACHA stimulations under both the conditions above produced more potent analgesic effects than plain acupuncture(PA, acupuncture needle insertion only) and control(no treatment). In the tail immersion test, ACHA stimulations under all of the conditions had markedly relieved the warm allodynia signs. Conclusion : Automatically controlled heating acupul1cture produced analgesic effecs in acute and neuropathic pains.

목적: 가열에 의한 플라스틱 렌즈의 변화를 연구하고자 하였다. 방법: -2.00D의 플라스틱 렌즈를 60-100$^{\circ}C$의 온도로 가열한 후 렌즈 굴절력의 변화, 표면 상태의 변화, 투과율의 변화를 조사하였다. 결과: 70$^{\circ}C$에서 1시간, 75$^{\circ}C$에서 10분, 100$^{\circ}C$에서 10초가 렌즈 표면의 변화를 일으키는 시작점으로, 가열온도가 높을수록, 중굴절률렌즈보다 고굴절률렌즈에서 균열이 더 심하게 발생되었다. 투과율은 균열의 정도가 심해짐에 따라 감소되었다. 결론: 70$^{\circ}C$이상의 가열은 렌즈에 변형을 발생시킬 수 있으므로 안경사는 착용자의 작업환경을 고려하여 적절한 렌즈를 추천하여야 하며, 착용자가 안경 사용에 주의를 기울일 수 있도록 안내를 해야 할 것이다.

장미 생산농가의 대부분은 겨울철 난방비가 생산비의 가장 큰 몫을 차지한다. 요즘과 같은 고유가 시대에 농가의 부담을 줄이기 위하여 난방비 절감율이 높은 난방시스템에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 복사열을 이용한 적외선 등 난방의 경우 식물체와 같은 물체를 먼저 가열하여 주변의 기온이 올리는 방식으로 빠르게 온도를 높일 수 있고 경유를 이용한 난방방식에 비해 비용이 절감되는 장점이 있다. 농가에 설치된 나노탄소 섬유 적외선 등 난방시스템의 현지조사를 실시하여 난방효과 및 난방비 절감율을 분석하고, 나노탄소섬유 적외선 등 난방시스템과 전기히터 난방시스템에서 생산된 '오렌지 플레쉬' 장미의 생육과 절화수명을 조사하였다. 나노탄소섬유 적외선 등의 경우 온실 내부 공기 설정온도가 $20^{\circ}C$인 경우 식물체 온도는 $1{\sim}2^{\circ}C$정도 더 높게 나타났을 뿐만 아니라 베드와 근권부 온도는 $17{\sim}19^{\circ}C$ 정도로 유지하는 등 우수한 난방의 효과를 알 수 있었고, 전기히터 난방시스템과 온수보일러 난방시스템의 추정 난방비를 비교한 결과 난방비 절감 효과가 아주 높게 나타났다. 장미의 생육을 조사한 결과 전기히터 난방시스템에서 생육한 장미와 차이가 없었으며 화색이나 염색의 발현이 더 좋았다. 절화수명에서는 나노탄소섬유 적외선 등에서 생육한 장미가 생체중과 수분 흡수량이 높아 다소 더 길어진 절화수명을 뒷받침 해 주었다.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the microbiological hazards of dried fish (Jwieochae, Ojingeochae and Bugeochae), and to apply pretreatment methods to increase the safety of cooked dried fish within foodservice establishments. Microbiological inspections were conducted on Total Plate Count, Coliforms, E. coli, E. coli O157:H7, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes. The study results are summarized as follows. According to the Hazard analysis, there are many problems showing high numbers in terms of Total Plate Count and Coliforms, which were both well over acceptable standard levels. E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus were detected at certain foodservice establishments, while E. coli O157:H7, Salmonella spp. and Listeria monocytogenes were not detected at all. By applying various pretreatment methods, such as washing, blanching, pan frying and microwave heating, the levels of microbiological hazards were able to be controlled and lowered. Blanching was the most effective method, followed by panfrying, microwave heating and washing. The Total Plate Counts gradually decreased with increasing number of times washed and seconds panfried. From these results, it is concluded that to guarantee food safety, cooked dried fish raw materials should be kept hygienically and appropriate pretreatment methods applied before cooking.

For the optimal design of the induction heating cooker, precise and accurate analysis of the magnetic field inside the jar must be achieved first. Until now, design methods based on experience has been used in industry field. But this takes a lot of trial and error, high cost and also long development time. So the analysis of the magnetic field distribution is very important. In this paper the magnetic field inside the induction heating cooker is analyzed by using axisymmetrical FEM(finite element method). And the method of the coil location design for the optimal heat source distribution using sensitivity analysis is developed. In addition, the shielding effect of the non-axisymmetrical 3-D ferrite structure used in induction heating cooker is also analyzed by the integral method.
