The sterilization effects of methylene blue (MB), formalin, and iodine on the egg of marine medaka, Oryzias dancena, were investigated for disinfecting naididae worm, Chaetogaster diastrophus through sterilization. To determine harmfulness of MB, formalin, and iodine, lethal concentrations 50 ($LC_{50}$) of three chemicals were analyzed in the eggs of marine medaka. The sterilized periods of each chemical were set at 1 hr. Sterilized rates of naididae worm in each chemical were significantly affected and increased drastically as the concentration of each chemical increased (p<0.05). Sterilization abilities of naididae worm were most effective for formalin, but survival rates of egg and hatched rates for formalin were lowest among each chemical. The $LC_{50}$ of MB over 96 hrs were 185.26, 103.84, and 127.15 ppm for adults, juveniles, and eggs respectively. The toxic effects of MB were clearly dose dependent for each life stage (p<0.05). The toxicity sensitivity of juveniles to MB was dramatically higher than that of other groups. In 48 hrs after sterilization, cortisol and glucose concentrations of the adult group with MB treatment were significantly higher than those of the adult group with no treatment (p<0.05). This research provides useful data on sterilization effect of MB, formalin, and iodine, acute toxicity in marine medaka egg and toxicity, sensitivity of life stage of MB in marine medaka.

본 연구는 관전압(kVp), 관전류량(mAs)과 같은 물리적 인자의 변화에 따른 다양한 구성 물질의 하운스필드 단위(HU, Hounsfield Unit) 평가를 통해 전산화단층촬영(Computed Tomography) 장치에 대한 성능을 평가하고 이들의 응용가능성을 연구하고자 하였다. MDCT (Siemens SOMATOM Sensation 4, Germany)를 이용하여 밀도가 다른 다양한 물질의 물리적 인자의 변화에 따른 HU 값을 측정하였다. 실험결과 관전압이 증가함에 따라 물질의 HU 값은 대체적으로 감소하고, 특히 뼈와 조영제의 구성물질인 요오드(iodine)의 경우 관전압이 80 kVp에서 140 kVp로 증가했을 때 HU 값은 각각 32%, 42% 감소하였다. 반면, 50 mAs에서 400 mAs로 관전류량이 증가함에 따라 HU 값에는 큰 변화가 없었다. 그리고 물질의 밀도가 0.00 $g/cm^3$에서 1.82 $g/cm^3$로 증가함에 따라 HU 값은 선형적으로 증가하였다. 조영제의 구성물질인 요오드의 경우에는 농도가 증가함에 따라 HU 값은 선형적으로 증가하였고 관전압이 증가함에 따라 HU 값이 감소하였다. 관전압 증가에 따른 감소정도는 요오드의 농도에 따라 차이가 있으며 3%의 농도에서 가장 큰 차이를 보였다. 이러한 결과를 이용하여 single source CT 장치에서 혼합물의 물질분리 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해 다양한 물질에 대한 물리적 인자와 HU의 상관관계를 확인하였고, single source CT 장치를 이용하여 물질분리 효과를 구현함으로써 CT 장치의 효율성을 증가시키고, 응용분야를 확장할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

A study during second trimester of pregnancy was conducted among 100 women from a population with mild to moderate deficient iodine intake (median 7 ${\mu}g$/L)to monitor the changes in serum free thyroxin ($FT_4$), triiodothyionine ($T_3$) and thyrtropin (TSH). Thyroid related hormones were assessed using radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunoradiometricassay (IRMA). As compared with non pregnant women, mean $FT_4$ levels decreased, $T_3$ levels increased and TSH levels were slightly depressed in pregnant women. Mean $FT_4$ concentration reached its highest level in the $4^{th}$ month and linearly decreased until the $6^{th}$ month. Mean $T_3$ level remained almost constant during $2^{nd}$ trimester of pregnancy. Mean TSH level remained unaltered during the $4^{th}$ and $5^{th}$ months and was slightly lower than that for the control group. However, these differences were statistically insignificant At the end of the second trimester, hypothyroxinemia and $T_3$ levels greater than the upper limit of the laboratory reference range were found in $34\%$ and $38\%$ of women, respectively. These changes in thyroid hormones reflect typical adaptations of the thyroid gland during pregnancy to the limited availability of iodine.

As a part of evaluating the volatility of iodide ions subjected to gamma irradiation, $I_2$ evaporation experiments were performed with $I_2$ and $I^-$ mixed solutions in the temperature range $26-80^{\circ}C$ in an open, well-ventilated space. The evaporation of $I_2$ was observed to follow primarily first order kinetics, depending on the $I_2$ concentration. The evaporation rate constant increased rapidly with increase in temperature. The presence of $I^-$ slightly reduced the evaporation rate of $I_2$ by forming relatively stable $I_3^-$. The effect of $Cl^-$ at <1.0 wt% on $I_2$ evaporation was insignificant. The evaporation rate constants of $I_2$ were $1.3{\times}10^{-3}min^{-1}\;cm^{-2}$, $2.4{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}\;cm^{-2}$, and $8.6{\times}10^{-2}min^{-1}\;cm^{-2}$, at $26^{\circ}C$, $50^{\circ}C$, and $80^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Among the radioactive wastes generated from the nuclear power plant, a radioactive nuclide such as $^{129}I$ is classified as a difficult-to-measure (DTM) nuclide, owing to its low specific activity. Therefore, the establishment of an analytical procedure, including a chemical separation for $^{129}I$ as a representative DTM, becomes essential. In this report, the adsorption and recovery rate were measured by adding $^{125}I$ as a radio-isotopic tracer ($t_{1/2}$ = 60.14 d) to the simulation sample, in order to measure the activity concentration of $^{129}I$ in a pressurized-water reactor primary coolant. The optimum condition for the maximum recovery yield of iodine on the anion exchange resins (AG1 x2, 50-100 mesh, $Cl^-$ form) was found to be at pH 7. In this report, the effect of the boron content in a pressurized-water reactor primary coolant on the separation process of $^{129}I$ was examined, as was the effect of $^3H$ on the measurement of the activity of iodine. As a result, no influence of the boron content and of the simultaneous $^3H$ presence was found with activity concentrations of $^3H$ lower than 50 Bq/mL, and with a boron concentration of less than 2,000 ${\mu}g/mL$.

Reaction conditions and catalysts were investigated for direct $CF_3I$ synthesis. Optimum reaction temperature was determined by pyrolysis of $CF_3H$ and catalytic reactions. Reactions with changing oxygen concentration were performed. As a result, yield of $CF_3I$ increased with decreasing oxygen concentration. Catalytic activity was changed with the weight ratio of the used metal salts. This result was stemmed from the change in the pore size of activated carbon by the metal salts. The optimum reaction conditions were: $600^{\circ}C$, space velocity of $45hr^{-1}$, and with 7wt% KF/AC catalyst.

Many radionuclides exist in normal environment and artificial radionuclides also can be detected. The radionuclides ($^{131}I$) are widely used for labeling compounds and radiation therapy. In Korea, the radionuclide ($^{131}I$) is produced at the Radioisotope Production Facility (RIPF) at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute in Daejeon. The residents around the RIPF assume that $^{131}I$ detected in environmental samples is produced from RIPF. To ensure the safety of the residents, the radioactive concentration of $^{131}I$ near the RIPF was investigated by monitoring environmental samples along the Gap River. The selected geographical places are near the nuclear installation, another possible location for $^{131}I$ detection, and downstream of the Gap River. The first selected places are the "front gate of KAERI", and the "Donghwa bridge". The second selected place is the sewage treatment plant. Therefore, the Wonchon bridge is selected for the upstream of the plant and the sewage treatment plant is selected for the downstream of the plant. The last selected places are the downstream where the two paths converged, which is Yongshin bridge (in front of the cogeneration plant). In these places, environmental samples, including sediment, fish, surface water, and aquatic plants, were collected. In this study, the radioactive iodine ($^{131}I$) detection along the Gap River will be investigated.

본 연구는 요오드 함량이 다른 조영제를 증류수로 희석한 비율과 관전압의 조건별로 CT number를 측정하여 전산화단층촬영장치의 자가진단 직선성 정도관리 기술을 개발하고자 하였다. 사용된 장비는 4-채널 MDCT를 이용하였고, 요오드 조영제는 300 mgI/ml, 350 mgI/ml, 370 mgI/ml, 400 mgI/ml를 사용했다. 증류수에 대한 조영제 희석비율은 최대 농도값이 측정될 때까지 5%씩 증가하였다. 관전압은 90 kVp, 120 kVp, 140 kVp를 적용하였다. 그 결과, 90 kVp에서 400 mgI/ml 조영제가 5% ~ 25%에서 희석된 비율 구간과 CT number들 간의 상관계수가 0.993으로 가장 근사한 직선성을 구하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 요오드 조영제를 이용한 자가진단 직선성 평가는 AAPM CT 성능평가용 팬톰을 대체할 수 있는 정도관리 방법으로 이용할 수 있다.

$CHCl_3,\;CHCl_3 : CH_2Cl_2$(1:1) 및 $CH_2Cl_2$ 용매 중에서 N,N-dimethylaniline(N,N-DMA)과 iodine간의 반응을 전도도법을 이용하여 속도론적으로 조사하였다. 유사 1차반응 속도상수($k_{obs}$) 및 2차반응 속도상수($k_{obs}$/[N,N-DMA])가 N,N-DMA 농도 의존성을 보였다. 실험적으로 구한 2차반응 속도상수는 N,N-DMA 농도 증가와 더불어 증가하였다. 이러한 결과를 반응 중간 생성물로서 charge tranfer complex의 생성에 기인하는 것으로 보고, 반응 scheme의 설정과 속도상수식의 유도로부터 complex 생성에 따른 평형상수와 변환에 따른 활성화 파라미터를 계산하였다. 평형상수는 용매의 유전상수의 증가와 더불어 감소하였으며, 1.9${\sim}$4.2$M^{-1}$의 값을 보였다. 또한 변환의 빠르기는 용매의 극성에 크게 의존하였으며, ${\Delta}H^{\neq}$값은 6.3-12.6kJ/mol, ${\Delta}S^{\neq}$값은 약 -234J/mol K의 큰 음의 값을 나타내었다.
