식물생육에 대한 저선량 방사선의 효과를 보고자, 배추 세품종과 무종자에 ${\gamma}$선을 조사한 후, 온실과 포장에서 재배하여 그 생육상황을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 저선량 ${\gamma}$선이 배추와 무의 발아율과 유묘초장등에서 초기생육을 촉진하는 효과가 인정되었으며, 그 효과는 품종에 따라 달랐다. 유묘초장의 경우는 서림배추와 알타리무는 0.2Gy에서, 고랭지 여름배추는 1Gy에서, 덕성배추는 4Gy에서 가장 높았다. 포장재배한 서림배추와 무의 초장은 1Gy에서, 덕성배추는 4Gy에서 가장 높았고, 생체중은 배추와 무 모두 4Gy에서 가장 양호하였다.

벼의 유묘 생육과 광합성 효율에 대한 저선량 방사선과 생장조절물질 간의 상승작용 효과를 확인하기 위해 4년 된 종자로 기내실험과 온실실험을 수행하였다. 기내실험에서 관찰한 종자 발아의 경우 방사선을 조사한 IBA 0.001 ppm 처리구에서 가장 높은 값을 보였다. 또한, 파종 6일 후 측정한 유묘 생육은 방사선 무 조사구보다 방사선을 조사한 GA₃와 IBA 처리구에서 대체로 높은 값을 보였으며, 그 중 IBA 0.001 ppm 처리에서 저선량 방사선과 생장조절물질간의 유의성 있는 상승작용 효과를 확인 할 수 있었다. 저선량 방사선을 조사 한 후 IBA 0.001 ppm을 처리하여 관찰한 온실 실험에서도 유묘 생육에서의 상승작용 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 광합성 효율을 확인하기 위해 측정한 엽록소 형광은 생장조절물질에 의해서만 차이를 보여, IBA 처리에 의해 광계 2의 양자 수율을 나타내주는 Ф/sub PSⅡ/와 광화학적 소멸을 나타내는 qP는 증가하였고 비광화학적 소멸을 나타내는 형광지표인 qN은 감소하였다. 이러한 결과를 통해 저선량 방사선을 조사한 후 생장조절물질을 처리하였을 때 벼의 종자 발아와 더불어 생육이 두 요인간의 상승작용 효과로 촉진됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

PET/CT is a medical equipment that detects 0.511 MeV of gamma rays. The radiation workers are inevitably exposed to ionizing radiation in the process of handling the isotope. Accordingly, PET/CT workers use syringe shields made of lead and tungsten to protect their hands. However, lead and tungsten are known to generate very high scattering particles by interacting with gamma rays. Therefore, in this study, we tried to find out the effect on the scattering particles emitted from the syringe shield. In the experiment, first, the exposure dose to the hand (Rod phantom) was evaluated according to the metal material (lead, tungsten, iron, stainless steel) using Monte Carlo simulation. The exposure dose was compared according to whether or not plastic is attached. Second, the exposure dose of scattering particles was measured using a dosimeter and lead. As a result of the experiment, the shielding rate of plastics using the Monte Carlo simulation showed the largest difference in dose of about 40 % in lead, and the lowest in iron, about 15 %. As a result of the dosimeter test, when the plastic tape was wound on lead, it was found that the reduction rate was about 15 %, 28 %, and 39 % depending on the thickness. Based on the above results, it was found that 0.511 MeV of gamma ray interacts with the shielding tool to emit scattered rays and has a very large effect on radiation exposure. However, it was considered that the scattering particles could be sufficiently removed with plastics with a low atomic number. From now on, when using high-energy radiation, the shielding tool and the skin should not be in direct contact, and should be covered with a material with a low atomic number.

The effects of radiation on the corrosion of canister materials were investigated for the reliable disposal of high-level radioactive waste. The test specimens were gamma-irradiated at a very low dose rate of approximately 0.1 Gy/h for six and twelve months. The copper and cast iron species were less corroded when irradiated. It is hypothesized that gamma rays suppress the formation of lower-enthalpy species like metal oxides and activate reductive reactions. In contrast, it was difficult to evaluate the effect of radiation on the corrosion of titanium and stainless steel.

묵은 파와 시금치 종자에 저선량 ${\gamma}$선을 조사하여 종자 발아율과 발아종자의 생리활성 변화를 관찰하였다. 시금치 종자의 발아율은 대조구에 비해 저선량 조사구에서 증가하는 경향을 보였고 특히 2 Gy와 1 Gy에서 효과적이였으나 파종자에서는 1 Gy 조사구만이 대조구에 비해 높은 발아율을 보였다. 저선량 ${\gamma}$선이 조사된 파와 시금치종자의 ion leakage 조사에서는 대조구에 비해 저선량 ${\gamma}$선 조사구에서 감소하는 경향을 보였는데 이는 특히 배양 초기 단계에서 뚜렸하였다. 전분 분해 또한 ${\gamma}$선 조사에 의해 촉진되었고 저선량의 γ선은 glutamic acid의 decarboxylation 으로 인해 종자의 활력을 유지하는 잇점이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The radioprotective effects of a single administration of kojic acid (KA) against ionizing radiation were evaluated via assessment of 30-day survival and alterations of peripheral blood parameters of adult C57BL/6 male mice. The 30-day survival rate of mice pretreated with KA (75 or 300 mg/kg body weight, KA75 or KA300) subcutaneously 27 h prior to a lethal dose (8 Gy, 153.52 cGy/min) of gamma irradiation was higher than that of mice irradiated alone (40% or 60% vs 0%). It was observed that the white blood cell (WBC) count/the red blood cell (RBC) count, haemoglobin content, haematocrit and platelet count of mice with or without KA pretreatment as exposed to a sub-lethal dose (4 Gy, 148.14 cGy/min) of gamma irradiation decreased maximally at day 4/day 8 post-irradiation. Although the initial WBC values were low in KA300 or WR-2721 (amifostine) groups, they significantly recovered to normal at day 19, whereas in the control group they did not. The results from the cytotoxicity and cell viability assays demonstrated that KA could highly protect Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells against ionizing radiation with low toxicity. In summary, KA provides marked radioprotective effects both in vivo and in vitro.

A portable count-ratemeter and a thermoluminescent detector ($CaSO_4:Dy$) have been used to obtain total gamma dose rates at approximately 50 locations during the course of several survey trips in the southeastern Korea. The purposes of these measurement were to provide a future reference data and to establish the approximate range of population exposure to the natural environmental radiation. The natural levels encountered ranged from a low of 14.6 microroentgen per hour to a high of 18.9 microroentgen per hour with a mean of $16.3{\pm}1.0$ microroentgen per hour. Among these results are the relatively high natural dose rate levels in the Masan area and Yangsan-Tongdosa area with the relatively low natural dose rate levels in the Gyeongsan-Cheongdo area and the Samrangjin-Jinyeong-Gimhae area.

The experimental results of exposing IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) samples to gamma radiation source show shifting of threshold voltages in the MOSFET and degradation of carrier mobility and current gains. At low total dose rate, the shift of threshold voltage is the major contribution of current increases, but for more than some total dose, the current is increased because of the current gain degradation occurred in the vertical PNP at the output of the IGBTs. In the paper, the collector current characteristics as a function of gate emitter voltage (VGE) curves are tested and analyzed with the model considering the radiation damage on the devices for gate bias and different dose. In addition, the model parameters between simulations and experiments are found and studied.
