Rice plants were exposed to $I_2$ vapor for 80 min at different growth stages in an exposure box to investigate the parameters concerning direct plant contamination. Deposition velocity $(m\;s^{-1})$ of the $I_2$ vapor for the straws was in the range of $1.4{\times}10^{-5}-1.3{\times}10^{-4}$ depending on the exposure time, being comparatively low during the earlier part of the plant growth. Ear deposition velocity was in the range of $2.5{\times}10^{-5}-6.7{\times}10^{-5}$. Whole-plant deposition velocity was in the range of $1.4{\times}10^{-5}-1.8{\times}10^{-4}$ with the highest from the exposure performed on Aug. 18 (7 d after the start of heading). The time-dependent variation generally decreased when the deposition velocity was normalized to the biomass density No noteworthy tendency in the deposition velocity was observed with regard to the temperature, sunlight and humidity. Translocation factor for the hulled seeds was $3.3{\times}10^{-5}-4.7{\times}10^{-4}$ with the highest from the Aug. 23 exposure. It was found that a leaf deposition even before the ear emergence resulted in a considerable seed translocation.

In this study, uptake rates of internal organs and daily urinary excretion rates were measured to get more reliable estimation results for Korean. Radioactive iodine($^{131}I$) of $100{\mu}Ci$ was administered by ingestion to 28 adult males for the experiment and then the radioactivity in thyroid gland, liver, stomach, small intestine, kidneys, and urine was measured after time intervals of 2, 4, 6 and 24 hours. Uptake rates of each organ and daily urinary excretion rates were calculated on the basis of these experimental results. As a result, uptake rates of 19.70% for thyroid and daily urinary excretion rates of 71.12%, on the average, were indicated. The maximum of uptake rates and daily urinary excretion rates were recorded after 2 hours of administration of $^{131}I$, but those rates were decreased gradually later. It was also found that uptake rates were the highest in stomach, followed by the left kidney, liver, small intestine and right kidney except for thyroid gland. In this experiment, the calculated uptake change rate in thyroid gland after 24 hours of administration of $^{131}I$ was different from that of ICRP-54/67(30%) and ICRP-78(25%). Thus, it is necessary to apply more reliable approach, reflecting the characteristic of Korean physiology and to obtain the basic data of results using this approach for calculation of the internal adsorbed dose. In the future, this approach can be helpful for the internal dose assessment of radiation workers in a nuclear power plant or in a hospital.

Structured triacylglycerol (SL-TAG) was synthesized by enzymatic interesterification with algae oil and soybean oil in solvent-free system. Structured di- and monoacylglycerol (SL-DAG/MAG) were produced by glycerolysis with SL-TAG and glycerol catalyzed by lipase. Reactions were performed by sn-1.3 specific Lipozyme RM IM lipase from Rhizomucor miehei (interesterification, 11%; glycerolysis 5% by weight of total substrates) in solvent-free system using stirred-batch type reactor. SL-DAG/MAG contained TAG (42,3 area%), 1,3-DAG (19.2 area%), 1,2-DAG (22.2 area%), MAG (16.0 area%), and free fatty acid (0.2 area%). Iodine and saponification values of SL-DAG/MAG were 208.8 and 179.6, respectively. SL-DAG/MAG appeared yellowish in color.

Total lipid contents in rice bran for Poong-San(Tongil) and Dong-Jin(Japonica) were 16.13% and 16.97%, respectively. Neutral lipids for Pong-San(75.20%) were slightly higher than those for Dong-Jin(73.69%), whereas contents of glycolipid for Poong-San(16.71%) were lower than those for Dong-Jin(22.80%). Contents of phospholipid in Poong-San(8.09%) were much higher than those in Dong-Jin(3.51%). Acid, peroxide and thiobarbituric acid value of total lipids extracted from rice bran of Poong-San were slightly lower than those of Dong-Jin. Iodine value showed the reverse trend. The neutral lipids were fractionated and identified as hydrocarbon, esterified sterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid, free sterol, diglyceride and monoglyceride. Triglyceride contents were less than common edible oils, but diglyceride and monoglyceride contents were higher. Among the glycolipids contained in the polar lipids, esterified sterylglycoside(11.46%) was the most abundant. Of the phospholipids, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl inositol and phosphatidyl choline were the major components. Main fatty acids in the total lipids, three lipid components and stepwise eluted individual lipids were olelic acid, linoleic acid and palmitic acid. The fatty acid composition of the neutral lipids was similar to that of the total lipids. In glycolipids, the content of linoleic acid was higher than that of oleic acid, and palmitic acid was predominant in the fatty acid composition of the esterified sterylglycoside.

Tirteen rice varieties of Japonica-Indica briefing type (J-I breeding type) and ten of Japonica type produced in Korea in 1985 were studied on cooking quality of milled rice and texture of cooked rice. The results are as follows: in the Looking quality, water uptake ratio of cooked rice and total solid in residual liquid showed significant $(p<2.172^*\;and\;2.419^*,\;respectively)$ between J-I breeding type and Japonica type The water uptake ratio of cooked rice was higher J-I breeding type than Japonica type but the total solid and intensity of iodine blue value in residual liquid were lower J-I breeding type than Japonica type. Minimum cooking time of milled rice showed significant $(p<2.375^*)$ between J-I breeding type and Japonica type for texture of cooked rice. The cooking time of J-I breeding type shorter than Japonica type. Hardness and cohesiveness in texture of cooked rice appeared to be significant cant $(p<4.370^{***}\;and\;2.371^*,\;respectively)$ between J-I breeding type and Japonica type, and then hardness was higher Japonica type than J-I breeding type, but cohesiveness was lower Japonica type than J-I breeding type. The correlation coefficients between amylose content and adhesiveness of varieties in the same type was $-0.922^{**}$ in J-I breeding type and $-0.915^**}$ in Japonica type. The correlation coefficients between protein content and hardness of the varieties in the same type was $0.954^{**}$ in Japonica type and so denoted as positive correlation. And the scatter diagram between protein and hardness could be divided into J-I breeding type and Japonica type.

To evaluate the characters related to rice grain quality as affected by silicate application, the ripened color, appearence and physicochemical properties of rice grain which were produced at the silt-loam paddy field of National Yeongnam Agricultural Exeperiment Station with a little poor drainage for trials on long-term effects of continuous application of same fertilizer were analyzed comparing with the NPK fertilizer an the NPK＋compost in 1995. The whiteness value and color space value in ripened color of rice hull by silicate application were higher than those in the plots of NPK and NPK＋compost, because of low percentage of rusty grain and sooty grain, The percentage of perfect grain in brown rice and in milled rice by the silicate application increased by 6.1~7.5% and by 1.8~3.5% respectively, as compared with the NPK application and white core and white belly of milled rice were decreased, The amylose content, protein content and starch-iodine blue value of milled rice by silicate application were lower than those in the plots of NPK and NPK＋compost, while the peak point and breakdown viscosity of gelatinized rice flour on amylograph, and tastes value evaluated as a indicater of pannel test by nireco tester were higher. By silicate application these factors could be affected toward better in eating quality.

Solubility patterns and gelatinization properties of two waxy rice starches, Sinsunchalbyeo and Hwasunchalbyeo, were investigated. Shapes of all starch granules were round and polygonal, and their X-ray diffraction patterns were all A type. Amylose content and water binding capacity of Sinsunchalbyeo were similar to those of Hwasunchalbyeo. The swelling powers and solubilities of two starches were increased with increasing temperature in range of $65{\sim}95^{\circ}C$, and those of Hwasunchalbyeo was higher. Iodine affinities of soluble fractions in Sinsunchalbyeo starch were higher than those in Hwasunchalbyeo at the same temperature and both were increased with increasing temperature. λmax of soluble fraction of Sinsunchalbyeo starch was highest at $75^{\circ}C$ of heating temperature. The transmittance of starch suspensions were increased rapidly at $60{\sim}65^{\circ}C$. By Rapid Visco Analyzer, initial gelatinization temperature of Sinsunchalbyeo was $67.2^{\circ}C$, and that of Hwasunchalbyeo was $68.2^{\circ}C$. In DSC analysis, onset temperature for gelatinization of Sinsunchalbyeo and Hwasunchalbyeo were $61.3^{\circ}C\;and\;62.9^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Molecular structural Properties of Potato starches from Irish cobbler(mealy Potato), Dejima(waxy or soggy potato) and Shepody were investigated. iodine reaction of Irish cobbler, Sephody and Dejima starches were 0.45, 0.44 and 0.43. ${\beta}-amylolysis$ limit of the starches was not different between the three potato types. The percentage of each fraction was different among samples : in general, Dejima starch had higher proportion of $F1(more\;than\;{\overline}{DP})$, $F2({\overline}{DP}40{\sim}50)$ and lower proportion of $F3({\overline}{DP}15{\sim}20)$ than those of Irish cobbler starch. When the starch was heated in excess water at $98^{\circ}C$ for 8min, the yield of hot water-soluble starch were higher in waxy type than in mealy one. Each potato variety showed different gel chromatography pattern of the hot water soluble starch. When the potato starches were hydrolyzed with 2.2N HCI at $37^{\circ}C$ for 48 hr, the molecular weight of the starch was decreased.

최근 CMOS 소자 크기가 축소됨에 따라 소스와 드레인 영역에서의 접촉저항을 줄이기 위하여, 실리사이드 공정이 많이 연구되고 있다. 실리사이드 물질로서 NiSi는 낮은 저항률과 낮은 실리콘 소모, 낮은 공정온도, 등의 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나, 실리사이드 형성으로 인한 나노소자의 소오스/드레인에서정션(junction) 누설전류의 증가는 큰 문제가 되므로 실리콘과 실리사이드 계면의 특성이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 니켈을 이용한 실리사이드 형성시 계면 활성제인 에틸 요오드를 이용하여 실험을 진행하였다. 금속 유기 전구체인 MABONi을 사용하여 ALD 방식으로 증착 한 니켈 박막과 니켈 핵 형성시 계면활성제인 에틸요오드의 처리 방법에 따른 Ni-silicide 박막의 특성을 비교, 분석하였다. 먼저 자연산화막을 건식식각으로 제거한 뒤, 첫 번째 샘플에서는 10회의 주기로 초기 니켈을 증착한 뒤, 에틸요오드로 니켈의 표면 위를 처리하고, 다시 200회의 주기로 니켈을 증착하였으며, 두 번째는 첫 번째 방식에서 에틸요오드 주입 시 동시에 수소도 함께 주입하였다. 세 번째는 비교를 위해 에틸요오드 처리를 하지 않고 니켈 박막만을 증착 하였다. 이어서, 각 샘플을 급속 열처리 장비에서 $400^{\circ}C$부터 $900^{\circ}C$까지 각각 30sec간 열처리를 진행후, 반응하지 않은 잔여 니켈을 제거한 후, XRD(x-ray diffraction), AES(auger), 그리고 4-point probe 등을 이용하여 형성된 실리사이드의 특성을 분석하였다. 에틸요오드와 함께 수소를 주입한 경우 계면에서의 산소 불순물과 카본 성분이 효과적으로 제거되어 $400^{\circ}C$에서 $2.9{\Omega}/{\Box}$ 의 낮은 면저항을 가지는 NiSi가 형성되었고 모든 온도구간에서 다른 샘플에 비하여 가장 낮은 면저항 분포를 보였다. 이는 분해 흡착된 요오드에 의한 계면 특성 향상과 카본 성분이 포함된 잔여물들이 수소처리에 의해 효율적으로 제거되어 실리사이드의 특성이 향상되었기 때문이다. 계면활성제를 사용하지 않은 경우에는 $500^{\circ}C$에서 NiSi가 형성되었다. 반면에 에틸요오드로만 표면을 처리한 경우에는 니켈과 실리콘 계면에서의 카본 성분에 의하여 silicidation 이 충분히 일어나지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 향후 45nm 이하의 CMOS 공정상에서 소스와 드레인의 낮은 누설전류를 가지고, 접촉저항을 줄이기 위한 니켈 실리사이드 형성에 큰 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.

Myiasis is a relatively common infection of animals kept as pets, although only 1 case of canine myiasis has been described so far in the Republic of Korea. In the present study, we report an additional case of canine wound myiasis with identification of its causative agent, Lucilia sericata. An 8-year-old male Siberian husky dog was referred with anorexia, vomiting, and diarrhea to the Chungbuk National University Veterinary Medical Center, Cheongju-si (city), Chungcheongbuk-do (province), Korea in July 2013. Physical examination indicated the patient had a deep wound filled with a maggot swarm as a left gluteal lesion. A total of 216 maggots were removed by forceps, and the wounded area was sponged with gauzes and disinfected with 70% alcohol and a povidone-iodine solution. After daily care and suturing the wound, the patient was discharged at day 19 after admission. Recovered worms possessed morphological characteristics similar to those of L. sericata, namely, a sub-cylindrical body with 6-8 lobed anterior spiracles, round shaped with a button surrounded by a peritremal ring with no gaps, and similar distances between dorsal, median, and outer papillae of the 12th segment. Additionally, cox1 partial sequences (528 bp) obtained in the present study showed 100% identity with those of L. sericata (GenBank no. KT272854.1). L. sericata is indicated as a pathogen of myiasis infection not only in humans, but also in animals kept as pets in Korea.
