본 연구실에서 개발된 particle inflow gun (PIG)은 조작이 간편하고, 사용비용도 저렴하며, 식물 세포 내의 유전자 도입효율이 높은 특징을 갖고 있다. PIG 장비를 이용하여 벼 캘러스 내로의 유전자 도입 조건을 검토하기 위해서 사용된 vector는 pIG121Hm으로서 T-DNA 내부에 intron GUS ($\beta$-glucuronidase)와 hygromycin 및 kanamycin 저항성 유전자를 포함하고 있다. 또한 벼 캘러스 내에 물리적으로 DNA를 도입할 때에 DNA 도입 효율과 관계가 높은 요인들을 GUS의 발현빈도를 통하여 조사하였다. 그 결과 gold particle에 DNA를 부착하는 과정에 사용되는 spermidine과 calcium chloride의 경우 무첨가구에 비해 16 mM의 spermidine과 1.5 M의 calcium chloride 첨가구에서 GUS 발현율이 각각 2배, 3배 증가하였다. 그리고 1회 분사되는 gold particles양이 2 mg의 경우 가장 높은 GUS 발현율을 보여주었으며, 또한 PIG장비의 분사거리와 헬륨의 압력은 벼의 배양세포의 경우 12cm의 분사거리에서 3.5 bar (50 psi)의 헬륨압력으로 분사하였을 때 GUS 발현율이 가장 높았다. 이상의 결과에서 PIG 장비를 이용한 유전자 도입은 본 연구에서 검토한 최적의 조건을 이용하였을 경우 기존에 많이 사용되고 있는 Biolistic Gun (Bio-Rad 사)과 거의 비슷한 유전자 도입효율을 보여 주었다. 특히 PIG 장비의 경우 조작이 매우 간편하고, 분사에 사용되는 일회용 부품이 필요하지 않기 때문에 대량의 반복실험을 필요로 하는 연구에서 손쉽게 사용되리라 기대된다.

The main purpose of this study is to generate a fine copper oxide powder of high purity, with a compact structure and a uniform particle size by a spray pyrolysis process. The raw material is a waste copper chloride solution formed in the manufacturing process of Print Circuit Board (PCB). This study also examines the influences of various factors on the properties of the generated powder. These factors include the reaction temperature, the inflow speed of the raw material solution, the inflow speed of the air, the size of the nozzle tip, and the concentration of the raw material solution. It is discovered that, as the reaction temperature increases from 80$0^{\circ}C$ to 100$0^{\circ}C$ , the particle size of the generated powder increases accordingly, and that the structure of the powder becomes much more compact. When the reaction temperature is 100$0^{\circ}C$, the particle size of the generated powder increases as the concentration of copper in the raw material solution increases to 40g/l, decreases as the concentration increases up to 120g/l, and increases again as the concentration reaches 200g/1. In the case of a lower concentration of the raw material solution, the generated powder appears largely in the form of CuO. As the concentration increases, however, the powder appears largely in the form of CuCl. When the concentration of copper in the raw material solution is 120g/1, the particle size of the generated powder increases as the inflow speed of the raw material solution increases. When the concentration of copper in the raw material solution is 120g/1, there is no evident change in the particle size of the generated powder as the size of the nozzle tip and the air pressure increases. When the concentration is 40g/1, however, the particle size keeps increasing until the air pressure increases to 0.5kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$, but decreases remarkably as the air pressure exceeds 0.5kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

For establishing a transformation system of rice, an efficient introduction of foreign genes into embryogenic cell suspension by particle bombardment was conducted. The particle inflow gun based on the acceleration of DNA-coated tungsten particles using pressurized helium was constructed for delivery of DNA into rice cells. Several bombardment parameters were optimized using the transient expression of GUS gene. The conditions that gave the highest GUS gene expression of about 1000 blue spots per g fresh weight of bombarded cells include treatment of the cells with 0.5 M osmotic pressure, and use of the 410 kPa helium, 110 mm target distance, 13 mm syringe filter holder and 5 $\mu$L DNA/tungsten mixtures. It was also confirmed that rice actin promoter-intron construct gave the highest expression of all promoter-sequences studied. Eight weeks after the bombardment, stably transformed calluses were obtained on the selection medium containing 100 mg/L G418 and showed the strong activity in in situ GUS assay.

Development of efficient plant regeneration and genetic transformation protocols (using the Particle Inflow micro-projectile Gun and the shoot-tips as target tissue) of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench in terms of expression of the reporter gene, $\beta$-glucuronidase(uidA) is reported here. Two Indian cultivars of sorghum were used in the study, viz. M-35-1 and CSV-15. Plant regeneration was achieved from one-week-old seedling shoot-tip explants via multiple-shoot-clumps and also somatic embryos. The multiple-shoot-clumps were produced on MS medium containing BA (0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 mg/$L^{-1}$), with biweekly subculture. Somatic embryos were directly produced on the enlarged dome shaped expansive structures that developed from shoot-tip explants (without any callus formation) when cultured on MS medium supplemented both with BA (0.5, 1.0 or 2.0 mg/$L^{-1}$) and 2,4-D (0.5 mg/$L^{-1}$). Whereas each multiple-shoot-clump was capable of regenerating more than 80 shoots via an intensive differentiation of both axillary and adventitious shoot buds, the somatic embryos were capable of 90% germination, plant conversion and regeneration. The regenerated shoots could be efficiently rooted on MS medium containing 1.0mg/$L^{-1}$ IBA and successfully transplanted to the glasshouse and grown to maturity with a survival rate of 92%. The plant regeneration efficiency of both the genotypes were similar. After the micro-projectile bombardment, expression of uidA gene was determined by scoring blue transformed cell sectors in the bombarded tissue by an in situ enzyme assay. The optimal conditions comprising a helium pressure of 2200 K Pa, the target distance of 11 cm with helium inlet fully opened and the use of osmoticum have been defined to aid our future strategies of genetic engineering in sorghum with genes for tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses.

The community structure of benthic macroinvertebrates in the Madongho Wetland protected area and inflow river located in Goseong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do, was investigated in 2022 and 2023. We collected and identified 3,582 individuals belonging to 7 classes, 23 orders, 51 families, and 78 species over the 2 years from six sites. Gnorimosphaeroma naktongense was the dominant species with a ratio of 20%, and Caridina denticulata denticulata was the subdominant species with a ratio of 13.32%. Predators and gathering collectors were the most abundant in the functional feeding group, while sprawlers were the most diverse and numerous in the habitual dwelling group. Diversity, richness, dominance, and evenness were calculated as the biological indices. In addition, various biological water quality indices were calculated. Most insects in the inflow rivers belonged to group I in evaluating relative resistance and resilience, showing high colony stability. The results of analyzing the correlation between salinity and substrate particle size with brackish water species showed that Gnorimosphaeroma naktongense and Hediste japonica had a significant positive correlation with salinity, while Assiminea lutea and Neomysis awatschensis had a significant positive correlation with substrate particle size. Additionally, Sinelobus kisui was found to be a new record of Korean Tanaididae in this study.

In the present study, the flow fields in between the propeller and the semi-spade rudder are investigated by using PIV technique to find out the influences of both simulated hull wake and propeller wake on the incident flow to the rudder. The velocity fields are measured at the propeller rotation angle of $180^{\circ}$ and the rudder deflection angles of $0^{\circ}$. Flow fields measured at each rudder deflection angle are analyzed in terms of angle-of-attack against the rudder leading edge. The hull wake increases the angle-of-attack more than that in the uniform inflow condition, forming the angle-of-attack of about $20^{\circ}$ at 0.7R(R=propeller radius) position. The distribution of the angle-of-attack is strongly affected by the stagnation point around the leading edge and camber effect of the rudder. These effects provide asymmetric distribution of angle-of-attack with respect to the leading edge of the rudder.

항만과 해역에 설치되는 수직벽의 일례로 육상 및 유입되는 오염수의 오염 유출 방지를 위한 차수기능을 갖는 차수벽과 교량이나 댐, 갑문 둥의 하천 또는 해양구조물을 축조하는 동안 물이 들어오는 것을 방지하기 위하여 임시로 설치되는 가물막이(cofferdam)벽 등이 있다 이들 차단벽의 구조역학적인 설계 인자 중 유입수 유동 특성과 설치 지역의 지반 특성이 중요한 의미를 가진다고 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 수직 차단벽 주위의 유체역학적 특성 파악의 일례로 수직벽의 하단에 틈새를 갖는 파공(perforation)이 발생하였을 때 이들 파공의 개도율 변화에 따른 유동특성을 고찰하는 하나의 방안으로 입자영상유속계(Particle Image Velocimetry)를 이용하여 수직벽 후류 특성을 실험적으로 고찰하였다.
