The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength of light-cured glass ionomer cements to dentin surface according to curing time induced by argon laser. In this study, 160 extracted human molars with sound crown were used. The dentin surface of these teeth were exposed with high speed diamond bur under water spray and polished with 120, 320, 400, 800, 1200 grits sand paper. 160 extracted human molars were randomly assigned into four groups (control, experimental 1, 2 & 3) with 40 teeth each. Control group used a visible light curing unit, XL 1000(3M Co., U.S.A) and experimental groups used argon laser($SPECTRUM^{TM}$). And then each group subdivided into two groups (A, B) according to filling materials. Subdivided A group used Fuji II LC(GC Co., Japan), B group used Vitremer(3M Co., U.S.A). The curing units and curing time of each group were as follows : Control group : visible light, 40 seconds Experimental group 1 Experimental group 2 Experimental group 3 : argon laser, 10 seconds : argon laser, 20 seconds : argon laser, 30 seconds The glass ionomer cements were bonded to dentin surface of each specimen. The specimens were stored in 100% relative humidity at 37"c for 7days. And then, the shear bond strength were measured by universal testing machine(Shimatzu Co. Japan) at crosshead speed of 5mm/min and 100kg in full scale and analyzed statistically. The following results were obtained : 1. Experimental group 2-A showed the highest shear bond strength with $9.87{\pm}1.24$ kgf and control group B showed the lowest shear bond strength with $4.08{\pm}0.78$ kgf(P<0.01). 2. The Fuji II LC showed higher shear bond strength with $9.49{\pm}1.24$ kgf than that of the Vitremer with $4.23{\pm}1.24$ kgf. There was significant difference between Fuji II LC and Vitremer(p<0.01). 3. There was no significant differences among experimental groups according to curing time induced by argon laser. 4. There was no significant differences between control group and experimental groups according to curing units.

A multilayer tower-type photoreactor, in which $TiO_2$-coated glass-tubes were installed, was used to measure the vapor-phase BTEX removal efficiencies by ozone oxidation ($O_3$/UV), photocatalytic oxidation ($TiO_2$/UV) and the combination of ozone and photocatalytic oxidation ($O_3/TiO_2$/UV) process, respectively. The experiments were conducted under various relative humidities, temperatures, ozone concentrations, gas flow rates and BTEX concentrations. As a result, the BTEX removal efficiency and the oxidation rate by $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system were highest, compared to $O_3$/UV and $TiO_2$/UV system. The $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system accelerated the low oxidation rate of low-concentration organic compounds and removed organic compounds to a large extent in a fixed volume of reactor in a short time. Therefore, $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system as a superimposed oxidation technology was developed to efficiently and economically treat refractory VOCs. Also, this study demonstrated feasibility of a technology to scale up a photoreactor from lab-scale to pilot-scale, which uses (i) a separated light-source chamber and a light distribution system, (ii) catalyst fixing to glass-tube media, and (iii) unit connection in series and/or parallel. The experimental results from $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system showed that (i) the highest BTEX removal efficiencies were obtained under relative humidity ranging from 50 to 55% and temperature ranging from 40 to $50^{\circ}C$, and (ii) the removal efficiencies linearly increased with ozone dosage and decreased with gas flow rate. When applying Langmuir-Hinshelwood model to $TiO_2$/UV and $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system, reaction rate constant for $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system was larger than that for $TiO_2$/UV system, however, it was found that adsorption constant for $O_3/TiO_2$/UV system was smaller than that for $TiO_2$/UV system due to competitive adsorption between organics and ozone.

안전한 급식을 위해서는 식중독사고와 연관성이 있는 미생물의 위해요소들이 실시간적으로 모니터링 되고 통제되어야 한다. 선진국에서는 실시간 위생 모니터링 도구로 ATP (adenosine triphosphate) Luminometer를 활용한 사례가 여러 건 보고되었다. ATP analyser는 ATP bioluminescence (생물발광성)의 원리를 이용하여 RLU (relatively light unit) 값으로 위생수준을 간접적으로 측정할 수 있게 해준다고 알려져 있다. 이에 국내 급식산업에서도 이를 활용할 수 있도록 조리도구들을 대상으로 일반세균수 (aerobic plate count; APC)와 RLU 간에 상관성이 존재하는지를 확인 할 필요성이 제기 되었다. 본 연구는 급식소의 조리도구 표면에 사전 처리없이 ATP (RLU)와 APC (CFU)를 측정하여 상관관계 존재 여부 파악 및 이들 관계의 최적인 모델을 찾아보고자 하였다. 이들에 대한 분석 결과를 조리도구별로 요약하면 다음과 같다. 도마, 칼, 국그릇 (스텐), 식판 (카보) 자료는 1차 변환의 로그변환이, 컵 자료는 2차 변환의 제곱근-역변환 (혹은 역-제곱근변환)이, 국그릇 (카보) 자료는 2차 변환의 제곱근-제곱근변환이 표준화 회귀계수 및 결정계수 $R^2$가 가장 좋게 나타났으나 식판 (스텐) 자료는 원자료, 1차 변환 및 2차 변환 모든 경우에서 정규성을 만족하지 못하여 이번 자료에서는 최적인 경우를 찾을 수가 없었다.

한반도 상공의 중간 자외선 대기광을 측정하기 위해 3단형 과학로켓(KSR-III)에 탑재될 대기광도계(Airglow Photometer, AGP)가 제작되었다. 대기광도계 비행 모형(FM)은 4-channel로 이루어져 100km~300km 구간의 중간 자외선 영역의 OI 2972${\AA}$, $N_2$ VK(0,6) 2780${\AA}$, $N_2$ 2PG 3150${\AA}$ 대기광과 배경으로 3070${\AA}$을 지평선 방향으로 측정하게 된다. 대기광도계는 광도계 본체, 차폐경(Baffle), 전자제어부, 전원공급기로 구성되어 있다. 광도계 본체는 협대역 간섭 필터를 통해 선택된 파장의 대기광을 직경 2.5cm 렌즈로 초점면에 설치된 실틈(slit)을 통해 자외선 감지용 광전증배관으로 진입시키는 구조로 되어있다. 비행중 영점 측정을 위해 초점면 실틈 뒤편의 회전판에 영점광원을 설치하였다. 차폐경은 저충대기로부터 산란되는 태양광이 광도계로 진입하지 못하도록 성능을 최적화하여 설계 제작되었다. 대기광도계 비행모형의 지상 테스트로서 각광도계의 성능 테스트 및 감응도, 영점 측정 등을 실시하였다. 대기광도개가 미약한 빛을 감응하도록 제작되었기 때문에 국내에서 신뢰도를 갖고 절대 감응도를 결정할 수 없었다. 그러나 대기광도계 각 channel 간 상대 감응도 측정값은 안정되게 측정되었기 때문에, 추후 로켓 비행시 측정한 자료를 신뢰성있게 분석할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of chilled drinking water on the productivity of laying hens under constant high ambient temperature. A total of seventy-two, 123-day-old Hy-line brown layers was divided into two equal groups. The first group (UDWG) was given unchilled water ($23.0{\pm}2.5^{\circ}C$) as a control, and the second group (CDWG) was given chilled water ($16.0{\pm}0.5^{\circ}C$). The laying hens were kept at $30^{\circ}C$ constant temperature with 50% relative humidity and were exposed to 17 h of light per day. Feed intake, egg production, egg quality (egg weight, shell weight, shell thickness, egg color, yolk color, and Haugh unit), and blood samples were collected and analyzed. The results showed that the feed intake of CDWG laying hens was significantly higher (11.64%) than the UDWG counterparts (p<0.01). Egg production of CDWG was also significantly higher (11.27%) than the UDWG counterparts (p<0.001). Furthermore, we observed that the CDWG laying hens had significantly higher (11.72%) levels (p<0.10) of blood calcium, with a corresponding value of 21.92 mg/dl compared to the UDWG hens (19.62 mg/dl). The higher calcium concentration in the CDWG animals may contribute to increased egg production. The CDWG laying hens also contained higher (12.53%) phosphorus concentrations in blood compared to the UDWG (4.22 mg/dl vs. 3.75 mg/dl), although not statistically different (p>0.10). Egg weight and egg quality were not affected by chilled drinking water. In conclusion, providing chilled drinking for laying hens under high ambient temperature improved feed intake and egg production.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate far-infrared clothing (FIR condition) with non-far-infrared clothing (Control condition) to assess the effects of FIR on thermo-physiological responses. Eight young healthy males (23.0±2.3 yr, 176.5±3.7 cm, and 69.0±4.3 kg) participated in this experimental trial, which consisted of a 20 min rest followed by a 40 min walk (4.0 km·hr^-1) and a 20 min recovery at 20℃ with 50%RH. The results showed that finger skin blood flow and mean skin temperature were significantly higher for the FIR condition than the control during exercise and recovery (p<.001). Clothing microclimate temperature of the FIR condition was 0.5℃ higher on the back (p=.001) and 0.4℃ higher on the thigh (p=.015) during recovery. Clothing microclimate relative humidity of the FIR condition was 13% higher on the chest (p=.006) and 19% higher on the back (p<.001) during exercise than control. Subjects felt warmer and more comfortable in the FIR condition than in the control (p<.05). Perceived skin wettedness (%BSA) was less in the FIR condition than in the control (p=.001). These results indicate that ceramic-embedded clothing had significant effects on thermoregulatory responses for light activity in an indoor environment.

Many dinoflagellates produce bioluminescence. To estimate the intensity of bioluminescence produced by populations of the heterotrophic dinoflagellates Noctiluca scintillans and Polykrikos kofoidii and autotrophic dinoflagellate Alexandrium mediterraneum in Korean waters, we measured cellular bioluminescence intensity as a function of water temperature and calculated population bioluminescence intensity with cell abundances and water temperature. The mean 200-second-integrated bioluminescence intensity per cell (BL_cell) of N. scintillans satiated with the chlorophyte Dunaliella salina decreased continuously with increasing water temperature from 5 to 25℃. However, the BL_cell of P. kofoidii satiated with the mixotrophic dinoflagellate Alexandrium minutum continuously increased from 5 to 15℃ but decreased at temperatures exceeding this (to 30℃). Similarly, the BL_cell of A. mediterraneum continuously increased from 10 to 20℃ but decreased between 20 and 30℃. The difference between highest and lowest BL_cell of N. scintillans, P. kofoidii, and A. mediterraneum at the tested water temperatures was 3.5, 11.8, and 21.0 times, respectively, indicating that water temperature clearly affected BL_cell. The highest estimated population bioluminescence intensity (BL_popul) of N. scintillans in Korean waters in 1998-2022 was 4.22 × 10¹³ relative light unit per liter (RLU L^-1), which was 1,850 and 554,000 times greater than that of P. kofoidii and A. mediterraneum, respectively. This indicates that N. scintillans populations produced much brighter bioluminescence in Korean waters than the populations of P. kofoidii or A. mediterraneum.

배양액의 종류 및 LED를 이용한 다양한 광질 조건이 물냉이의 생장과 glucosinolates 함량에 미치는 영향을 3주간의 수경재배를 통하여 살펴보았다. 물냉이 종자를 암면배지에 파종 후 발아시켜, 2주간 육묘하였다. 유묘들은 semi-DFT 시스템에 이식하였다. 환경조절실은 주간온도 $20{\pm}1^{\circ}C$와 야간온도 $16{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, 주간습도 $65{\pm}10%$와 야간습도 $75{\pm}10%$의 범위에서 조절되었으며 16/8h 조건의 광주기와 $180{\pm}10{\mu}mol{\cdot}m^{-2}{\cdot}s^{-1}$ 광강도를 유지하였다. 배양액은 오오츠카 하우스 1A(OTS), 한국원시(HES)과 화란온실작물연구소(PBG) 배양액을 초기 EC 1.0-1.3, pH 6.2와 형광등을 광원으로 실험하였다(실험-1). 광질에 대한 생육과 glucosinolates 함량을 분석하기 위하여 단색광(적색: R10, 백색: W10) 처리구와 혼합광(적청녹색: R2B1G1, 백청녹색: W2B1G1, 적색: R10, 적청색: R5B1, 적청색: R3B1)처리구를 두었다. 물냉이 지상부의 생육은 3개의 배양액 처리구에서 유의적인 차이가 발견되지 않았지만, 뿌리의 생체중은 HES와 비교하여 PBG와 OTS에서 13.7%와 55.1% 증가하였다. OTS 처리는 PBG와 HES 처리구에 비해 gluconasturtiin 함량이 96%, 65% 증가하였다. 백색광조건(W10)과 비교하여 적색광(R10) 처리는 초장이 101.3% 증가하였다. 청색광비율의 증가는 지상부 생육에 긍정적인 영향을 주었다. 물냉이의 건물중 당 glucosinolates 함량은 R2B1G1 처리구와 비교하여 R3B1 처리구에서 144.5% 증가하였으며, W10 처리구와 비교 시, 약 70% 증가하는 경향을 보였다. R3B1 처리구에서 물냉이의 생육과 총 glucosinolates의 함량이 가장 높게 나타났다.

자연미생물, KP964에 luxAB 유전자를 주입하여 발광기능을 부여함으로써 그들의 발광정도가 스트레스에 대한 적응, 생존 및 활성도를 나타내는 색인이 될 수 있는가, 그리고 특히 non-culturable but viable(NCBV) 상태로 존재하는 미생물의 활성에 대한 정보를 제공할 수 있는가를 알아보았다. 영양결핍조건 하에서 그들의 총 세균수, 배양가능세균(colony-forming-unit; CFU)수, viable cell 수, 그리고 발광정도(relative light unit; RLU)의 변화를 조사하였다. 형광현미경으로 확인된 총 수는 변화가 없었으며, 첨가된 yeast extract에 의해 성장하는 viable cell 수는 완만하게 감소하였으나 CFU 수는 급격히 줄어들어 37일 째 이후에는 탐지한계 이하로 감소하였다. RLU의 경우, 처음 7일의 영양결핍동안 0.016%까지 감소하였으며, 그 이후에는 탐지한계수준 이하로 검출되었다. 아울러 스트레스를 받는 4시간 동안 CFU수와 RLU의 관계를 알아보기 위하여 발광 KP964 균주에게 독성유해물질, acid shock, osmotic shocks를 접촉시킨 후 시간별로 CFU와 RLU를 측정한 결과, KP964 CFU 당 RLU는 9.1-26% 까지 감소하였다. 이는 스트레스의 종류에 따라 접촉시간이 길수록 CFU 당 나오는 빛의 양이 줄어듬을 보인 것이다. 이러한 결과는 영양결핍조건 시 RLU의 감소율이 CFU의 감소율보다 더 크며 영양결핍 이외의 다른 스트레스 조건 하에서도 RLU의 감소율과 CFU의 감소율의 연관성을 찾을 수 없음을 보이므로, 발하는 빛의 정량만으로는 NCBV 상태는 물론 배양가능한 세균의 양이나 활성을 나타내지 못하는 듯 하였다. 그러나 스트레스를 받은 KP964의 활성 정도와 잠재발광능력과의 관계는 좋은 연관성을 보여주었다. 즉, p-xylene, hypo-osmotic stress, 또는 영양결핍에 노출된 세균으로부터 각 스트레스를 제거하였을 시 나타나는 발광증가 유형을 조사하였는데, 증가가 시작하기까지의 lag period는 각각 32, 26, 22분으로 나타났다. 즉 미생물에 강력한 스트레스로 작용한 경우일수록 lag time이 길고, 또한 발광의 증가율이 느리며 도달하는 최대 RLU값도 낮음이 관찰되었다. 따라서 스트레스 하의 세균으로부터 직접적인 RLU의 측정보다는 이들이 스트레스 조건으로부터 재성장 또는 소생되는 과정에서의 잠재 발광능력의 분석이 자연세균의 적응, 활성 및 생존의 정도를 나타내주었다.

We have never seen any method to cope basically with complicated situation and problems around medical reimbursement rates here in Korea since 1977 witnessed by the beginning of medical insurance. By the way researchers concerned are beginning to propose some kinds of innovative and detailed ideas to government these days. They are Diagnosis-related group(DRG) and Resource-based .elative value scale(RBRVS). In the light of this situation it is so encouraging that our government can come up with that and move. In case of RBRVS research we have already been reaching even to the level of reviewing and revising methodology for its further development after naive pilot study on internal medicine and general surgery last year. However there might be something different conditions between USA and Korea to apply the same Dr. Hsiao's method and it must be vital to check so called' total work approach' compared with 'intra-service work approach' before expanding to the whole medical fields. According to the' Intra-service approach', the physician's work is supposed to be divided into three sub-works by the name of intraservice work, pre, and post service work. These sub-works, again should be merged together to be the pre-postwork subset through some statistical methods of the estimation process applied by Dr. Hsiao's methodology in RBRVS development later on. But in this paper that estimation process was not taken because we could have real values for all of those surveyed items related to just one specialty, OB & GY. Instead, We used some statistical comparison procedures relevant to demographic characteristics, reliability & validity and correlation analysis with American RVU(Relative value unit) between the total work and merged total work from intraservice work approach. The unit of analysis was individual physicians of OB & GY and 300 physicians were selected for each approach through statistical sampling method based on national population of OB & GY physicians in Korea. And also with the thankful help of Advisory Committee under Korean Association of OB & GY, questionnaires were made and mailed to the subjects, two times. As a result there were not any statistically significant differences in demographic characteristics between the two approaches except for the variable 'Response time for the questionnaires', but in other sections of comparisons, response rate, representative values, reliability & validity test, correlation analysis with American RVU, all showed 'Total approach' was not only more rational and statistically meaningful than 'Intra-service approach' but also had considerable merits. But we are not absolutely sure about this paper's robustness. Because of some limitations, we'd rather like to suggest further researches should be followed. In that sense the first thing would be a research for the influence of doctor's characteristics, especially 'frequency' on the rating of work and the way to define total work more clearly.
