In this study, river water-based reference materials (RMs), NIER-I08RW and NIER-I09, for trace metal analysis were prepared and certified for Pb, Cd, Cr and Cu with evaluation of uncertainties. The RMs were confirmed to be homogeneous enough to be used as proficiency testing materials since within-bottle homogenieties of the RMs were lower than 0.3 times of targeted standard deviation of proficiency testing. The RMs were distributed to environmental testing laboratories for the proficiency testing and the variation of Z scores of the proficiency testing results were compared for different assigned values. The relative bias, $B_{relative}$, deviations between reference values and consensus values, were lower than ${\pm}$1 except for cadmium of NIERI08RW. The results showed both values were in a good agreement and only 2.9% of Z scores changed by using a different assigned values such as consensus and reference values.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of different mixture ratios of vermicasts on the growth of leaf beet(Beta vulgaris var. cicla), young radish (Raphanus sativus L), spinach(Spinacia oleracea) and lettuce(Lactuca sativa) The mixture of ratios of vermicast(fermented pig manure with sawdust) and peatmoss were 100%+0%, 60%+40%, 40%+60% and 0%+100%(control), respectively. The bulk density, particle density, pH, electrolytic conductivity, ash, total nitrogen, cation exchange capacity, available phosphorous and exchangeable cations increased significantly compared to those grown in the 100% of peatmoss(control). The significantly higher values of plant length, leaf area, shoot dry weight, root weight, root length and biological yield obtained were $40{\sim}100%$ and 40% of vermicast in leaf beet and lettuce, respectively. The young radish and spinach showed that significantly differences of shoot dry weight, root weight and biological yield in the mixture ratios of vermicast were $40{\sim}60%$ and 40% in young radish and spinach, respectively.

This study was carried out to evaluate the yield of extract, antioxidant compounds (total phenolic and total flavonoid), antioxidant (DPPH assay, ABTS assay and reducing power), and antimicrobial activities of bracken (Pteridium aquilinum Kuhn), according to cooking methods (non-blanched, blanched and seasoned). The yield of seasoned bracken extracts showed a high value of (4.59%) followed by non-blanched bracken and blanched bracken with 2.69% and 0.30%, respectively. In the total polyphenol and flavonoid contents, seasoned bracken extracts showed higher antioxidant compounds ($96.11{\pm}0.34mg\;GAE$/100 g RW, $20.90{\pm}0.mg\;CE$/100 g RW) than non-blanched and blanched. The total antioxidant activities (DPPH assay, ABTS assay and reducing power) were shown to be in the order of seasoned bracken > non-blanched bracken > blanched bracken. In the antimicrobial activities, non-blanched bracken extracts showed antimicrobial activity against B. cereus, B. subtilis, E. cloacae, E. coli, S. enterica, and P. aeruginosa except for S. aureus. The non-blanched bracken extracts (5 and 10 mg/disc) especially showed strong antimicrobial activity against P. aeruginosa ($10.00{\pm}0.71$ and $10.25{\pm}0.35mm$). The inhibition zone diameter from the extracts of blanched bracken and seasoned bracken was not detected. Many seasonings added in the process of cooking can increase the antioxidant capacities. The overall results of this study demonstrate that the cooked bracken with seasoning would be the most efficient way of ingesting antioxidant compounds.

Demand for RW transportation is expected to increase due to the continuous generation of RW from nuclear power plants and facilities, decommissioning of plants, and saturation of spent fuel temporary storage facilities. The locational aspect of plants and radiation protection optimization for the public have led to an increasing demand for maritime transportation, necessitating to apprehend the overseas and domestic current status. Given the potential long-term radiological impact on the public in the event of a sinking accident, a pre-transportation exposure assessment is necessary. The objective of this study is to investigate the overseas and domestic RW maritime transportation current status and overseas dose assessment cases for the public in sinking accident. Selected countries, including Japan, UK, Sweden, and Korea, were examined for transport cases, Japan and the U.S were chosen for dose assessment case in sinking accidents. As a result of the maritime transportation case analysis, it was performed between nuclear power plants and reprocessing facilities, from plants to disposal or intermediate storage facilities. HLW and MOX fuel were transported using INF 3 shipments, and all transports were performed low speed of 13 kn or less. As a result of the dose assessment for the public in sinking accident, japan conducted an assessment for the sinking of spent fuel and vitrified HLW, and the U.S conducted for the sinking of spent fuel. Both countries considered external exposure through swimming and working at seashore, and internal exposure through seafood ingestion as exposure pathway. Additionally, Japan considered external exposure through working on board and fishing, and the U.S considered internal exposure through spray inhalation and desalinized water and salt ingestion. Internal exposure through seafood ingestion had the largest dose contribution. The average public exposure dose was 20 years after the sinking, 0.04 mSv yr^-1 for spent fuel and 5 years after the sinking, 0.03 mSv yr^-1 for vitrified HLW in Japan. In the U.S, it was 1.81 mSv yr^-1 5 years after the sinking of spent fuel. The results of this study will be used as fundamental data for maritime transportation of domestic RW in the future.

Wistar Strain male rats were divided into four different diet groups and the control group was fed on seven percent casein diet (C), the second with a mixture of 80% of rice and 20% of buckwheat (RW), the third with rice only (R), and the fourth with a mixture of rice and buckwheat of equal nitrogen level (RWS). Each diet group consisted of six rats was fed for three weeks by the adlibitum feeding method. The results of the experiment, i, e, the growth gain and change in the level of branch-amino acids in the plasma determined by the micro-bioassay method were as follows. 1. The group C showed the largest growth gain and the rest did in the order of RW group, R group, and RWS group. 2. It was shown that rats fed on diet of higher protein score tend to have higher level of free branch-amino acids in the plasma. 3. Thus, the protein score may be estimated based on the level of the free branch-amino acids in the plasma.

The aim of this study was to transfer the 18.5 kb gene clusters coding for 17 genes from Lactobacillus rhamnosus to Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris MG1363 in order to determine the effect of host on exopolysaccharide (EPS) production and to provide a model for studying the phosphorylation of proteins which are proposed to be involved in EPS polymerization. Lactobacillus rhamnosus RW-9595M and ATCC 9595 have 99% identical operons coding for EPS biosynthesis, produced different amounts of EPS (543 vs 108 mg/l). L. lactis subsp. cremoris MG1363 transformed with the operons from RW-9595M and ATCC 9595 respectively, produced 326 and 302 mg/l EPS in M17 containing 0.5% glucose. The tyrosine protein kinase transmembrane modulator (Wzd) was proposed to participate in regulating chain elongation of EPS polymers by interacting with the tyrosine protein kinase Wze. While Wzd was found in phosphorylated form in the presence of the phosphorylated kinase (Wze), no phosphorylated proteins were detected when all nine tyrosines of Wzd were mutated to phenylalanine. Lactococcus lactis subsp. cremoris could produce higher amounts of EPS than other EPS-producing lactococci when expressing genes from L. rhamnosus. Phosphorylated Wzd was essential for the phosphorylation of Wze when expressed in vivo.

2.3%C-26%Cr-1%Ni-0.5%Mo 조성의 아공정 백주철을 여러형태로 열처리를 한 후 잔류오스테나이트함량(Vr), 거시 및 미소경도 그리고 내마찰마모성사이의 상호관계를 연구하였다. 주방상태에서의 Vr가 70.2%인 반면 열처리시편들의 경우 0.3-65.4%의 분포를 나타내었다. 초기마모구간 이외에는 마찰마모량과 마모시간과의 사이에 직선적 관계가 얻어졌으며 그 직선의 기울기(Rw)를 내마모성의 비교시 지표로 사용하였다. Rw는 주방상태에서 $2.77{\times}10^{-2}\;mg/s$로 가장 낮았으며 l173k에서 18ks동안 균질화 열처리만 한 시편의 경우 $4.12{\times}10^{-2}\;mg/s$로 내마모성이 가장 열악하였다. 주방상태에서 내마모성이 가장 좋은 이유는 마찰마모시 오스테나이트가 가공경화를 일으켜 마르텐사이트로 변태되었기 때문으로 여겨진다. 미소경도는 HV 358-HV 756, 거시경도는 이 보다 높은 HV 529-HV 785의 분포를 나타내었는데 이는 거시경도의 측정시 공정탄화물인 $M_7C_3$가 포함되었기 때문이다. 가장 높은 미소 및 거시경도는 1323k에서 7.2ks동안 오스테나이화열처리한 시편에서 얻어졌으며 주방상태의 시편이 가장 낮은 경도치를 나타내었다.

Mechanical and thermal properties of composite sandwich wall panels are affected by changes in their external environment. Humidity and temperature changes induce stress on wall panels and their core connectors. Under the action of ambient temperature, temperature on the outer layer of the wall panel changes greatly, while that on the inner layer only changes slightly. As a result, stress concentration exists at the intersection of the connector and the wall blade. In this paper, temperature field and stress field distribution of UHPC-RW-RC (Ultra-High Performance Concrete - Rock Wool - Reinforced Concrete) wall panel under high temperature-sprinkling and heating-freezing conditions were investigated by using the general finite element software ABAQUS. Additionally, design of the connection between the wall panel and the main structure is proposed. Findings may serve as a scientific reference for design of high performance composite sandwich wall panels.
