  • Bifidobacteria의 효과적인 이용을 위해서는 산소에 내성을 갖는 균주를 선발하는 연구 외에도 산소 스트레스에 대한 방어 기작에 대한 기초적인 연구가 필요하다. 인체로부터 분리된 산소 내성 bifidobacteria는 산소제거활성을 가지고 있었으며 이는 열처리 및 극단적인 pH(pH 2.0)하에서 산소제거활성이 소실되는 것으로 보아 효소가 관여 할 가능성을 확인하였다. 또한 산소제거활성을 보이는 주된 효소를 탐색해본 결과 NADH를 공급하였을 때만 산소제거활성을 보여 NADH oxidase가 주된 역할을 하는 효소임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 산소 내성 균주는 높은 NADH peroxidase 활성을 보유한 것으로 보아 NADH oxidase의 작용에 의해 생성되는 $H_2O_2$는 NADH peroxidase에 의해 무독화 되는 것으로 판단되었다. 배양 중 산소를 공급하여 산소스트레스를 주었을 경우 NADH oxidase와 NADH peroxidase 활성이 1시간 이내에 급격히 증가하였고 산소 공급 후 2시간 동안 배양액 중 용존 산소가 크게 증가하지 않았다. 산소공급 후 2시간 이상이 경과하면 NADH oxidase와 NADH peroxidase활성이 감소하고 용존 산소가 급격히 증가하였고 산소스트레스에 대한 방어 체계가 붕괴되는 현상이 관찰되었다. 즉, 산소 내성 bifidobacteria는 일정 한계까지는 환경중의 산소를 NADH oxidase로 제거하고 생성되는 $H_2O_2$는 NADH peroxidase에 의해 제거시키는 방어 체계를 갖고 있음을 알 수 있었다.

  • The objective of this study was to clarify the characteristics of the removed micropollutant since the breakthrough of adsorption ability was occurred in biological activated carbon(BAC) process. The removal efficiency of DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) was 36 % in the breakthrough of BAC occurred by NOM (Natural Organic Matter). The most of removal DOC was found out the adsorbable and biodegradable DOC (A&BDOC). But it was not clear to remove by any mechanism because A&BDOC have simultaneously the adsorption of activated carbon and biodegradation by microorganism in BAC. The removal of bromophenol was examined with BAC and rapid sand filter, for investigation of DOC removal mechanism in the breakthrough of BAC. In this experiment, BAC filter has been operated for 20 months for the treatment of reservoir water. The BAC filter was already exhausted by NOM. Bromophenol, adsorbable and refractory matter, was completely removed by BAC filter. Therefore, it might be removed by the adsorption in BAC. Adsorption isotherms of bromophenol were compared to two BACs which was preloaded with 500 daltons and 3,000 daltons of NOM. BAC preloaded with 3,000 daltons of NOM was not decreased to the adsorbability of bromophenol but BAC preloaded with 500 daltons of NOM was greatly decreased to it. These result indicated that NOM of low molecular weight can be removed by adsorption after a long period of operation and the breakthrough by NOM in BAC. Therefore, micropollutants might be removed through adsorption by saturated BAC.

  • Effects of coagulation types on flocculation were investigated by using a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA) as an on-line monitoring technique in this study. Nakdong River water were used and alum and ferric chloride were used as coagulants. The aim of this study is to compare the coagulation characteristics of alum and ferric chloride by a photometric dispersion analyzer (PDA). Floc growing rates ($R_v$) in three different water temperatures ($4^{\circ}C$, $16^{\circ}C$ and $30^{\circ}C$) and coagulants doses (0.15 mM, 0.20 mM and 0.25 mM as Al, Fe) were measured. The floc growing rate ($R_v$) by alum was 1.8~2.8 times higher than that of ferric chloride during rapid mixing period, however, for 0.15 mM~0.25 mM coagulant doses the floc growing rate ($R_v$) by ferric chloride was 1.1~2.3 times higher than that of alum in the slow mixing period at $16^{\circ}C$ water temperature. Reasonable coagulant doses of alum and ferric chloride for turbidity removal were 0.1 mM (as Al) and 0.2 mM (as Fe), respectively, and the removal efficiency of those coagulant doses showed 94% for alum and 97% for ferric chloride. The appropriate coagulant dose of alum and ferric chloride for removing dissolved organic carbon (DOC) showed about 0.3 mM (as Al, Fe) and at this dosage, DOC removal efficiencies were 36% and 44%, and ferric chloride was superior to the alum for removal of the DOC in water.

  • An attempt was made to enhance anaerobic treatment efficiency by adopting the anaerobic sequencing batch reactor(ASBR) process at a thermophilic temperature. Operational characteristics of the ASBR process were studied using laboratory scale reactors and concentrated organic wastewater composed of soluble starch and essential nutrients. Effects of fill to react ratio (F/R) were examined in the Phase I experiment, where the equivalent hydraulic retention time(HRT) was maintained at 5 days with the influent COD of 10g/L. A continuous stirred tank reactor(CSTR) was operated in parallel as a reference. Treatment efficiency was higher for the ASBRs because of continuous accumulation of volatile suspended solids(VSS) compared to the CSTR. However, the rate of gas production and organic removal per unit VSS in the ASBRs was much lower than the CSTR. This was caused by reduced methane fermentation due to accumulation of volatile acids(VA), especially for the case of low F/R, during the fill period. When the F/R was high, maximum VA was low and the VA decreased in short period. Consequently, more stable operation was possible with higher F/R. Effects of hydraulic loading rate on the efficiency was studied in the Phase II experiment, where the organic loading rate was elevated to 3333mg/L-d with the F/R of 0.12. Reduction of organic removal along with rapid increase of VA was observed and the stability of reaction was seriously impaired, when the influent COD was doubled. However, operation of the ASBR was quite stable, when the hydraulic loading rate was doubled and a cycle time was adjusted to 12 hour. It is essential to avoid rapid accumulation of VA during the fill period in order to maintain operational stability of the ASBR.

  • The concentration of organic compounds was analyzed at each step of BAC process though $BDOC_{total/rapid/slow}$. Further, bacteria communities and biomass concentrations measured FISH and ATP methods were analyzed. The bed volume (BV) of steady state is different from that of based on assessment of organic compounds removal. Bed volumes in DOC, $BDOC_{rapid}$ and $BDOC_{total/slow}$ removal at steady state were around 27,500 (185.8 day), 15,000 (101.4 day) and 32,000 (216.2 day), respectively. A biomass didn't change after the bed volume reached 22,500 (152.0 day) according to analyzing ATP concentration of bacteria. The concentration of ATP was 2.14 ${\mu}g/g$ in BV 22,500 (152.0 day). The total bacterial number was $4.01{\pm}0.4{\times}10^7$ cells/g at the bed volume 1,150 (7.8 day) (the initial operation) and the number of bacteria was $9.27{\pm}0.2{\times}10^9$ at the bed volume 58,560 395.7 day) that increased more than 200 times. Bacterial uptrend was reduced and bacterial communities were stabilized since BV 18,720 (126.5 day). When BV were 1,150 (7.8 day), 8,916 (60.2 day), 18,720 (126.5 day), 31,005 (209.5 day), 49,632 (335.3 day), 58,560 (395.7 day), a proportion of total bacteria for the Eubacteria were 60.1%, 66.0%, 78.4%, 82.0%, 81.3% respectively. ${\gamma}$-Proteobacteria group was the most population throughout the entire range. The correlation coefficient ($r^2$) between Eubacteria biomass and ATP concentration was 0.9448.

  • Acquiring a selective growth advantage by breaking the proliferation barrier established by gatekeeper genes is a centrally important event in tumor formation. Removal of the mammalian Hippo kinase Mst1 and Mst2 in hepatocytes leads to rapid hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) formation, indicating that the Hippo signaling pathway is a critical gatekeeper that restrains abnormal growth in hepatocytes. By rigorous genetic approaches, we identified an interacting network of the Hippo, Wnt/${\beta}$-catenin and Notch signaling pathways that control organ size and HCC development. We found that in hepatocytes, the loss of Mst1/2 leads to the activation of Notch signaling, which forms a positive feedback loop with Yap/Taz (transcription factors controlled by Mst1/2). This positive feedback loop results in severe liver enlargement and rapid HCC formation. Blocking the Yap/Taz-Notch positive feedback loop by Notch inhibition in vivo significantly reduced the Yap/Taz activities, hepatocyte proliferation and tumor formation. Furthermore, we uncovered a surprising inhibitory role of Wnt/${\beta}$-catenin signaling to Yap/Taz activities, which are important in tumor initiation. Genetic removal of ${\beta}$-catenin in the liver of the Mst1/2 mutants significantly accelerates tumoriogenesis. Therefore, Wnt/${\beta}$-catenin signaling, known for its oncogenic property, exerts an unexpected function in restricting Yap/Taz and Notch activities in HCC initiation. The molecular interplay between the three signaling pathways identified in our study provides new insights in developing novel therapeutic strategies to treat liver tumors.

  • BACKGROUND: Enormous amounts of the wood biomass wastes have been produced through various wood processing. This study characterizes the surface characteristics of biomass powders of Cornus controversa (CC) and Quercus mongolica (QM) and investigates their removal efficiency and mechanism for Pb (II) in aqueous solution on which to base potential recycling alternative of the wood biomass. METHODS AND RESULTS: Batch experiments were conducted under different conditions of Pb concentrations, temperatures, time and solid/solution ratios. Adsorption isotherm of Pb by CC and QM biomass was explained significantly by the Langmuir model, indicating Pb was likely adsorbed on the monolayer of the surfaces. The adsorption kinetics were fitted significantly to the double first-order model consisting of rapid and slow steps. The respective rate constants (k1) of CC and QM for the rapid adsorption kinetic steps were 0.051 and 0.177 min-1, and most of the sorption reactions proceeded rapidly within 6-20 minutes. The maximum adsorption quantities (qmax) of Pb were 17.25 and 23.47 mg/g for CC and QM, respectively. Thermodynamic parameters revealed that adsorption of Pb on the biomass of CC and QM was a spontaneous endothermic reaction. CONCLUSION(S): Results demonstrate that biomass wastes of CC and QM can be used as Pb adsorbents judging from adsorption isotherm, kinetics, and thermodynamic parameters.

  • 입상활성탄 공정은 수처리에서 널리 사용되고 있으며, S와 B정수장은 기존의 급속여과지의 여재를 활성탄으로 교체하여 F/A 공정으로 운영하고 있다. 소독부산물의 제어를 위해 F/A가 도입된 금강수계 S정수장과 낙동강 수계 B정수장의 운영결과를 토대로 용존유기물질(DOC)과 소독부산물(DBPs) 등의 효율평가와 F/A공정 운영인자 등에 대하여 검토하였다. 두 정수장 원수의 용존유기물질 특성은 친수성과 소수성이 유사한 범위를 보이고 있으며, F/A공정에서 운영 초기 흡착능에 의한 빠른 파과특성을 나타내었다. F/A에서 소독부산물의 제거특성은 운영초기에 THM과 HAA 모두 제거효율이 우수하였으나, 운영기간이 경과되면서 THM제거율은 급격히 감소하였으며, HAA의 제거율은 동절기 저수온 시기를 제외하고는 생물학적 제거기작에 의해 높은 제거효율을 나타냈다. F/A공정은 활성탄흡착지(Post GAC) 공정과 비교하여 높은 유기물 부하, 잔류염소, 응집제 또는 응집보조제, 망간, 빈번한 역세척 등의 여러 가지 이유로 인해 여재 물성치 및 흡착능의 감소가 빠르게 나타났다. F/A공정이 실공정으로 도입되어 1년 이상 운영되어진 결과를 보면 활성탄 여재의 물성치 및 흡착능의 빠른 감소 경향이 있지만, 소독부산물 중 $HAA_5$항목이 문제시되는 정수장의 경우 기타여과지로 인증을 받은 F/A공정은 향후 점점 더 강화되는 수질기준의 만족을 위한 대안공정의 하나로서 적용이 가능하리라 판단된다.

  • 본 연구는 대표적인 지하수 오염물 제거공정 중 하나인 양수처리 시스템 pumping-and-Treatment System, PTS)에 대하여 실제에 가까운 불균일한 토양구조에서 모사하기 위하여 수행되었다. 즉, 지하의 불포화지대에 유출된 오염물로서 고밀도 비수상액체 (denser-than-water non-aqueous phase liquids, DNAPLs)와 저밀도 비수상액체 (lighter-than-water non-aqueous phase liquids, LNAPLs)가 지하수의 계면 및 그 아래에서 안정하게 분포하고 있을 때, PTS 공정의 모사를 통하여 그 타당성을 조사하였다. 이때 DNAPL과 LNAPL은 각각 1,1-dichloroacetone와 n-hexane로 가정하였다. 대상토양은 불균일한 토양층과 부분적인 지하수 흐름을 가지는 2차원 토양구조로 가정하였고, 포화지대에 1 개의 well을 설치하여 펌핑을 시작한 후 시간에 따른 지하수면의 변화와 오염물이 제거되는 정도를 계산하였다. 본 연구에서 SIMPLEC 알고리즘을 이용한 유한체적법에 의하여 비정상상태 모사를 수행한 결과, LNAPL뿐 아니라 DNAPL도 지하수면과 만나는 초기단계의 경우 즉시 지하수면 아래로 가라앉지 않고 지하수면을 따라 퍼지게 되므로 펌핑에 의한 제거가 가능한 것으로 판단되었다. 펌핑을 시작한 후 약 5일 동안은 DNAPL과 LNAPL의 경우 모두 두드러진 제거효과가 나타나지 않았으나, 일단 지하수면의 모양이 원뿔 모양으로 변형되고 나서 급속히 체거효율이 높아졌다. 특히 DNAPL의 경우 중력의 영향을 더 크게 받아서 well주위의 움푹 들어간 지하수면을 따라 이동하며 LNAPL보다 더 빠른 속도로 제거가 이루어졌다. 본 연구의 결과에 나타난 지하수면의 형태적 변화는 상대압력으로 -0.5기압이라는 비교적 큰 음압과, 1m의 비교적 큰 well의 지름을 가정하였기 때문에 다소 과장된 것으로 보인다. 그러나, 본 연구를 통하여 오염물의 물성에 따른 PTS공정의 효율을 비교할 수 있었고, 지하수면의 형태적 변화를 유발하여 정화효율을 증가시킬 수 있음을 제시하였다.

  • The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE) membrane exposure on the initial healing of the periodontal tissue in guided tissue regeneration (GTR) procedure. 90 sites selected from 90 patients were treated with gingival flap surgery supported by an e-PTFE membrane. The material included angular bony defects with probing attachment loss of > 5mm or degree II furcation involvement. Treated sites were classified with membrane exposure group and non-exposure group at membrane removal and evaluated healing type. The results were obtained as follows. 1. e-PTFE membrane was exposed at 61 sites (67.8%) among 90 sites. 2. Thirteen sites (14.4%) depicted rapid healing type, 65 sites (72.2%) depicted typical healing type, 9 sites (10%) showed delayed healing type and 3 sites (3.3%) were categorized as adversed healing type. 3. In e-PTFE membrane exposure group, 1 site (1.6%), 51 sites (83.6%), 6 sites (9.8%) and 3 sites (4.9%) showed rapid healing type, typical healing type, delayed healing type and adverse healing type respectively. 4. In e-PTFE membrane non-exposure group, 12 sites (41.3%), 14 sites (48.3%) and 3 sites (10.3%) showed rapid healing type, typical healing type and delayed healing type respectively. Adverse healing type was not observed. 5. The rate of favourable healing between e-PTFE membrane exposure group and non-exposure group was not statistically significant(p=0.56). These results suggest that the prevention of membrane exposure may be important to obtain rapid healing type. However favourable healing could be obtained with stringent infection control program even if membrane was exposed.
