  • 2012년 통가해저열수광상 개발 사업의 일환으로 통가아크 해저산 TA25에서 ROV와 GTV를 이용하여 열수황화물광체를 채취하였다. 채취된 광체 중 본 연구에서는 약 $200^{\circ}C$의 열수분출을 보인 고온성 활성침니(ROV01), $80^{\circ}C$의 열수분출을 보인 저온성 활성침니(GTV01), 그리고 비활성침니(ROV02)를 이용하여, 암석자기학적 특성을 규명하고 이를 바탕으로 광체의 진화과정을 알아보고자 하였다. ROV01의 자기적 특성은 주로 자류철석에 의해 나타나며, GTV01의 경우 광체내부는 자류철석이 주로 나타나지만 외곽으로 갈수록 자류철석과 적철석이 혼재하게 된다. 비활성침니인 ROV02는 오랜 산화작용으로 인해 외곽에서 적철석뿐만 아니라 침철석이 자류철석과 함께 나타나고, 최외곽에서는 magnetotactic bacteria의 작용에 의해 자철석이 존재한다. 포화잔류자화(saturation magnetic remanent magnetization, SIRM), 비자기이력잔류자화(anhysteretic remanent magnetization, ARM)/SIRM으로 나타낸 자성광물의 함량과 입자크기 변화는 침니의 특성에 따라 뚜렷한 차이가 난다. 고온의 ROV01에서 가장 적은 함량과 작은 입자크기를 보이며, 저온의 GTV01에서 점차 증가하다가 비활성침니인 ROV02에서 가장 높은 함량과 큰 입자크기를 나타내게 된다. 이러한 결과는 자성광물의 종류, 함량, 입자크기 변화 등의 암석자기학적 특성을 이용하여 기존 광물학적 접근방법으로 추적에 한계가 있었던 열수황화물광체의 진화과정에 대한 정보를 획득할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • This study was performed to identify the effect of fertilizer application and planting method on growth and yield of 'Seolhyang' strawberry during seedling raising. According to the concentration of fertilizer applied, the height of daughter plants was the highest at an EC of $0.8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Leaf number and crown diameter were greatest at an EC of $0.6-0.8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. In the first measurement, root number was highest in non-fertilizer application, while root weight was heaviest in non-fertilizer application and EC $0.4dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. The higher the concentration of fertilizer applied as culture media, the lower the growth rate. Thirty days after planting on the main field, plant height and number of new leaf were highest at an EC of $0.8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. However, no significant difference was found in leaf length and width and chlorophyll content according to fertilizer application. Marketable yield of 25 g or higher was greatest in EC $0.6dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. In contrast, no significance was found in total marketable yield at an EC of $0.4-0.8dS{\cdot}m^{-1}$. Aconsistent pattern was exhibited in the growth of 1-5 harvesting flower clusters according to planting method. The length of leaf and flower cluster was short and chlorophyll content was low, when bed soil was removed 100% in harvesting of the first flower cluster. In all treatment, leaf length was shortened until harvesting of the second and third flower cluster, but rapidly lengthened in harvesting of the third and fourth flower clusters. Moreover, the length of flower cluster had a increasing tendency from harvesting of the third flower cluster. However, chlorophyll content was reduced continuously until harvesting of the fifth flower cluster, and was lowest in harvesting of the fourth flower cluster without removal of bed soil. Total yield was greatest in treatment of crown removal in bed soil between November and May. Late marketable yield between March and May was highest in treatment of 100% bed soil removal, followed by treatment of crown removal. Marketable yield of 25 g or higher was greatest in treatment of crown removal between December and February, while greatest in treatment of 100% bed soil removal between March and May.

  • Objectives: This investigation is purposed to evaluate the airborne asbestos concentrations in the public buildings having asbestos containing materials(ACMs) in Seoul. Methods: The Seoul Metropolitan Government carried out an asbestos survey to the city-owned public buildings to identify the level of risk exposure, classified into low, moderate and high risk. To evaluate the airborne concentration of asbestos, 11 sampling sites in ten buildings based on the survey were selected. The air samples from the eleven sites were analyzed by Phase Contrast Microscopy(PCM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and compared the analytical results from the both. Results: 1. The airborne fiber concentrations by PCM were less than the detection limit($7f/mm^2$) in 9(82%) out of 11 sampling sites. The highest concentration was 0.0043 f/cc, but it was below the guideline value for indoor air quality(0.01 f/cc), proposed by the Ministry of Environment, Korea. 2. In two sampling sites, having moderate risk level, the chrysotile was identified and showed it's concentrations of 0.0102 s/cc and 0.0058 s/cc, less than $5{\mu}m$ lengths. 3. The ACMs identified in the two sampling sites were a packing material(65% of chrysotile) in mechanical area and a thermal system insulation(5% of chrysotile) in a boiler room. Having more possibility of asbestos emission in the mechanical area, it would be required to set up and carry out the asbestos management plan. Conclusions: Based on the result of this study, the airborne asbestos concentrations in the public buildings with ACMs were generally lower than the guideline value for indoor air quality. There are widespread concerns about the possible health risk resulting from the presence of airborne asbestos fibers in the public buildings. Most of the previous studies about airborne asbestos analysis in Korea were performed based on PCM method that asbestos and non-asbestos fibers are counted together. In the public and commercial buildings, having ACMs, it is suggested that the asbestos be analyzed by TEM method to identify asbestos due to concerns about asbestos exposure to workers and unspecified people.

  • An experiment was carried out to study plasma levels of hormones and metabolites of crossbred Holstein cattle during late pregnancy (28 days pre partum), early lactation (30 days post partum), mid-lactation (120 days post partum) and late lactation (210 days post partum). Two breed types of Holstein $Friesian{\times}Red$ Sindhi (50:50 = 50%HF) and Holstein $Friesian{\times}Red$ Sindhi (87.5:12.5 = 87.5%HF) were divided into four groups of four animals each. Two groups of each breed were fed with either rice straw treated with 5% urea or pangola hay (Digitaria decumbens) as the source of roughage throughout the experiments. There were a substantial increases in the mean levels of total triiodothyronine ($T_3$), insulin and glucagon at the onset of lactation, and maintained in a high levels during lactation advance for all groups of experiments. The mean levels of prolactin and thyroxine ($T_4$) were not significantly different among groups of animals, but the plasma cortisol concentration was slightly higher in both groups of 50%HF in comparison with those of 87.5%HF animals. The mean levels of plasma growth hormone (GH) of both groups of 87.5%HF animals feeding on either hay or urea treated rice straw markedly rose in the early period of lactation and markedly reduced in mid- and late lactation. These changes were accompanied with changes of milk yield. In contrast to 50%HF animals, plasma GH levels were considerably higher in the late pregnant period than in the early period of lactation and it remained constant as its value at the early lactation throughout the experimental period. The high levels of both plasma progesterone and estradiol concentration significantly declined after parturition and remained low through lactating period. The plasma glucose level in the 50%HF animals feeding on either hay or urea treated rice straw was higher than the 87.5%HF animals in all periods of experiments. Changes in plasma FFA levels of both types of crossbred animals were depended on the endocrine status during late pregnancy and lactation. The levels of plasma FFA of 50%HF animals were significantly higher (p<0.05) than those of 87.5%HF animals during late pregnancy. Both plasma ${\beta}$-hydroxybutyrate and lactate concentrations were not affected by feeding on either hay or urea treated rice straw during late pregnancy and lactation. These data demonstrate that there were no differences in the physiological performances in the same crossbred animals fed either hay or urea treated rice straw. The 87.5%HF animal has the genetic potential for a high milk yield and homeorhetic adaptation for mammary function differed from 50%HF animals during periods of lactation. Altering lactation persistency in 87.5%HF is regulated mainly by chronically acting growth hormones through the period of lactation.

  • 본 연구는 입상활성탄을 일시에 100% 충진하는 방법과 일회 충진양을 50%, 33%, 20% 및 10%로 나눠서 주기적으로 누적 충진하였을 경우에 대해 THMs과 DOC 처리효율 변화를 비교 평가하기 위해 수행하였다. 일시에 100% 충진하는 방법은 운전 초기에는 THMs와 DOC의 유출농도가 낮았으나 운전기간이 증가할수록 높은 유출수 농도를 나타내었다. 반면 주기적 누적충진 방법을 적용한 경우에는 유출수의 THMs와 DOC 농도가 운전기간 동안 상대적으로 균등하게 유지하였다. THMs 흡착제거에는 주기적 누적 충진법이 전체 충진용량을 일시에 충진하는 방법에 비해 효과적이었으나, 활성탄 공정 유입수 THMs 구성종들 중에서 클로로디브로모메탄이나 브로모포름의 함량이 클로로포름이나 브로모디클로로메탄에 비해 월등히 높은 경우에는 주기적 누적충진법에 비해 전체 충진용량을 일시에 충진하는 방법이 더욱 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. DOC의 제거에서는 충진용량을 일시에 충진하여 운전하는 방법이 주기적 누적충진법에 비해 DOC의 총 흡착량과 유출수의 평균농도 측면에서는 유리하였다. 활성탄 공정 운전기간 동안 THMs와 DOC 제거율의 균등화에는 주기적 누적충진 방법을 적용한 경우가 효과적이었고, 적은 양의 활성탄을 주기적으로 자주 충진하는 방식이 더욱 유리하였다.

  • 비광요구형 디페닐에테르계 화합물인 TOPE의 제초작용 생리를 알기 위하여 온실에서의 제초특성을 비롯한 식물색소대사, 전자전달계, 단백질 및 핵산대사 등에 미치는 TOPE.의 영향을 조사하였다. 작용발현 속도가 광요구형 디페닐에테르계보다는 늦지만 엽신부의 고사와 동시에 생육저해 및 생장점에서의 분열이상이 관찰되었으며 절취된 오이자엽에 처리될 경우 전해질 누출과 더불어 엽주변부의 심한 분열이상이 초래되었다. 그러나 2,4-D와 같은 오옥신 활성은 아니었다. 저광도에서의 엽록소 형성 저해정도는 관찰되지 않았으며 oxyfluorfen 과는 달리 protoporphyrin IX의 축적도 유기되지 않았으나, 카로티노이드 성분은 모두 비정상적으로 증가되었다. 탈수소효소의 활성 또는 미토콘드리아에서의 호흡활성은 일정농도에 서 증가되는 경향을 보이나 호흡저해제들은 TOPE에 의한 전해질 누출을 경감시키지 못하였다. 한편 광합성 전자전달 저해는 고농도에서만 관찰되었다. 오이의 전해질 누출과 분열이상을 지표로 한 TOPE와의 상호작용 실험에서 전해질 누출에 대하여 cycloheximide는 상승적으로, chloramphenicol, actinomycin-D, hydroxyurea는 길항적으로 작용하였고, cycloheximide, actinomycin-D, hydroxyurea 등은 자엽의 이상분열을 경감시켰다. 이는 TOPE가 핵산대사에 관여됨을 시사해 주는 것으로써 오이자엽 및 벼 근에 TOPE를 처리했을 때 RNA 및 단백질보다 DNA의 증가가 보다 빠른 시기에 일어났다. 따라서 TOPE가 처리되면 비정상적인 핵산대사 촉진으로 인해 제반 생리작용이 교란되고 이어 엽신부의 고사와 분열이상 등의 제초활성이 발현되는 것으로 생각된다.

  • Organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) in $PM_{2.5}$ were measured using Sunset OC/EC Field Analyzer at Seoul Hwangsa Monitoring Center from March to April, 2016. The mean concentrations of OC and EC during the entire period were $4.4{\pm}2.0{\mu}gC\;m^{-3}$ and $1.4{\pm}0.6{\mu}gC\;m^{-3}$, respectively. OC/EC ratio was $3.4{\pm}1.0$. The average concentrations of $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ were $57.4{\pm}25.9$ and $39.7{\pm}19.8{\mu}g\;m^{-3}$, respectively, which were detected by an optical particle counter. The OC and EC peaks were observed in the morning, which were impacted by vehicle emission, however, their diurnal variations were not noticeable. This is determined to be contributed by the long-range transported OC or secondary formation via photochemical reaction by volatile organic compounds at afternoon. A conditional probability function (CPF) model was used to identify the local source of pollution. High concentrations of $PM_{10}$ and $PM_{2.5}$ were observed from the westerly wind, regardless of wind speed. When wind velocity was high, a mixing plume of dust and pollution during long-range transport from China in spring was observed. In contrast, pollution in low wind velocity was from local source, regardless of direction. To know the effect of long-range transport on pollution, a concentration weighted trajectory (CWT) model was analyzed based on a potential source contribution function (PSCF) model in which 75 percentiles high concentration was picked out for CWT analysis. $PM_{10}$, $PM_{2.5}$, OC, and EC were dominantly contributed from China in spring, and EC results were similar in both PSCF and CWT. In conclusion, Seoul air quality in spring was mainly affected by a mixture of local pollution and anthropogenic pollutants originated in China than the Asian dust.

  • In all mammalian species, progesterone is essential to both the preparation for, and maintenance of, pregnancy. The $20{\alpha}$-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase ($20{\alpha}$-HSD) enzyme predominantly converts progesterone into its biologically inactive form $20{\alpha}$-hydroxyprogesterone, thereby regulating its activity. Thus, to directly assess sexual maturation in the MediKinetics $micropig^{(R)}$, we analyzed the concentration of the steroid hormones progesterone and estradiol during the estrous cycle. Our results show that the progesterone level exhibited by the analyzed $micorpig^{(R)}$ was low at the beginning of the estrous cycle, and then abruptly increased to $30.32{\pm}10.0ng/mL$ and $46.37{\pm}11.0ng/mL$ by days 9 and 11 of the cycle, respectively. It reached the highest level $55.87{\pm}3.5ng/mL$ on day 13 of the estrous cycle, before decreasing to $46.58{\pm}13.1ng/mL$ and $10.0{\pm}7.6ng/mL$ by days 15 and 17 of the cycle, respectively. In contrast, the estradiol level was shown to be highest ($27.13{\pm}11.2ng/mL$) at the initiation of the estrous cycle, after which point it decreased to $13.29{\pm}6.5ng/mL$ and $10.94{\pm}5.9ng/mL$ by days 4 and 5 of the estrous cycle, respectively. By day 17 of the estrous cycle, the estradiol level decreased to $4.13{\pm}7.6ng/mL$. We anticipate that these results will provide useful information to enable the study of human ovulation and reproductive physiology using the MediKinetics $micoripig^{(R)}$ as a model system. We recommend further investigation to elucidate the functional mechanisms underlying the regulation of sexual maturation in the MediKinetics $micropig^{(R)}$.

  • 여기에너지에 따라서 $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu 형광체의 활성제의 농도 변화 및 적색안료인 $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$ 미립자를 형광체 표면에 코팅함에 있어 표면처리 방법 변화에 따른 발광 특성의 변화를 연구하였다. 형광체 표면처리방법은 FeSO$_4$를 이용하여 에멀젼 드라이 방식으로 $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$미립자를 만들어 형광체 표면에 흡착법과 FeSO$_4$/에탄올을 이용하여 액상에서 생성된 침전물을 형광체 표면에 침전시킨 침전법을 사용하였다. 고상법으로 합성된 $Y_2$O$_3$:Eu 형광체의 경우 여기에너지에 따라서 최고 휘도를 나타내는 활성제의 첨가량이 다르게 나타났으며, 활성제의 함량이 진공자외선(147nm)과 저 전압 영역(400V)에서는 0.02mol이고 5kV에서는 0.03mol이었다. 색순도 향상을 위한 안료가 표면 처리되면 형광체의 발광 휘도가 감소한다. 표면처리는 여기에너지에 따라서 다른 방법을 사용해야한다. 진공자외선과 저 전압 영역에서는 불균일 한 막을 형성하는 흡착법으로 표면처리를 해야하고, 고전압영역에서는 침전법으로 표면 처리하는 것이 유리하다.
