본 연구에서는 국내 부존 몰리브덴광을 대상으로 광물학적 특성 및 부유선별 기초특성을 파악하였다. 몰리브덴의 근원광물은 휘수연석으로 확인되었으며 원광 내 주요 맥석광물은 규산염광물이었다. 구리, 납 및 아연 등은 극미량으로 나타났다. 부유선별 기초특성 결과, 휘수연석의 제타전위는 pH 전영역에서 음전하를 나타내었다. 휘수연석의 접촉각은 pH의 증가에 따라 증가하였고 최대값은 pH 9에서 74°을 나타내었다. 단위부선의 최적조건에서 정광의 품위와 회수율은 각각 MoS2 82.4%와 92.04%를 나타내었다. 정광내 불순물 조사결과, 정광의 품위를 저하시킬 수 있는 휘수연석과 유사한 특성을 보이는 황화광물, 그리고 휘수연석과 결합된 규산염광물이 관찰되었다. 따라서, 정광의 품위향상을 위해 재분쇄/단체분리 향상을 통한 규산염광물의 제어와 미립자광물 선별 효율을 높일 수 있는 컬럼부선등이 요구된다.

The accumulation of spent carbide (YG8), not only pollutes the environment but also causes waste of tungsten, cobalt and other rare metal resources. To better address this issue, we proposed a combined electrochemical separation process of low-temperature aqueous solution and high-temperature molten salt for tungsten and cobalt. H₂WO₄ was obtained from spent carbide in an aqueous solution, and we calcined it to obtain WO₃, which was used as a raw material to obtain tungsten by using molten salt electrodeposition. The influence of the current efficiency and the electrochemical behavior of the discharge precipitation of W(VI) were also studied. The calcination results showed that the morphology of WO₃ was regular and there were no other impurities. The maximum current efficiency of 82.91% was achieved in a series of electrodeposition experiments. According to XRD and SEM analysis, the recovered product was high purity tungsten, which belongs to the simple cubic crystal system. In the W(VI) reduction mechanism experiments, the electrochemical process of W(VI) in NaCl-Na₂WO₄-WO₃ molten salt was investigated using linear scanning voltammetry (LSV) and chronoamperometry in a three-electrode system. The LSV showed that W(VI) was reduced at the cathode in two steps and the electrode reaction was controlled by diffusion. The fitting results of chronoamperometry showed that the nucleation mechanism of W(VI) was an instantaneous nucleation mode, and the diffusion coefficient was 7.379×10^-10 cm²·s^-1.

다량의 중수반사체를 가진 조밀한 노심에서는 핵분열시 발생하는ｒ선과 중수소와의 (ｒ,n) 반응에 의해 지발 광중성자가 다량 생성되므로 이러한 계통을 기술하기 위하여 광중성자와 그 모핵종의 공간적 분리에 역점을 두어 2-점노 운동방정식을 정립하였다. 여러 반응도를 주입하여 출력 천이를 모사계산하므로써 노심과 반사체사이의 관련 효과를 조사하였다. 이 모델에 의한 모사계산 결과와 공간 종속 운동방정식에 의한 계산결과를 비교하였다. 반사체 영역에서의 광중성자 효과가 포함되므로써, 이를 포함하지 않은 모델에 비해 출력 천이현상을 감소시켰다. 실제로 출력을 측정하는 계측기는 이러한 공간적 분리영 향을 제거하기 위하여 노심 내부에 위치하여야 한다.

In this study, five endophytic fungi belonging to the Aspergillus and Alternaria genera were isolated from Lagopsis supina. The antimicrobial activity of all fungal fermented extracts against Staphylococcus and Fusarium graminearum was tested using the cup-plate method. Among them, Aspergillus ochraceus XZC-1 showed the best activity and was subsequently selected for large-scale fermentation and bioactivity-directed separation of the secondary metabolites. Four compounds, including 2-methoxy-6-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (1), 3,5-dihydroxytoluene (2), oleic acid (3), and penicillic acid (4) were discovered. Here, compounds 1 and 4 displayed anti-fungal activity against F. graminearum, F. oxysporum, F. moniliforme, F. stratum, Botrytis cinerea, Magnaporthe oryzae, and Verticillium dahlia with diverse MIC values (128-512 ㎍/ml), which were close to that of the positive control antifungal, actidione (64-128 ㎍/ml). Additionally, compounds 1 and 4 also exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against S. aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella enterica, with low MIC values (8-64 ㎍/ml). Moreover, compounds 1 and 4 displayed selective cytotoxicity against cancer cell lines as compared with the normal fibroblast cells. Therefore, this study proposes that the endophytic fungi from L. supina can potentially produce bioactive molecules to be used as lead compounds in drugs or agricultural antibiotics.

Background: Despite considerable technological advancements, polyspermy remains a significant challenge in in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures in pigs, disrupting normal embryonic development. Here, we aimed to determine whether optimal fertilization conditions reduce the polyspermy incidence in pigs. Methods: In vitro-matured oocytes were co-incubated with sperm according to a modified two-step culture system. Results: In the first experiment, oocytes were briefly co-incubated with sperm, washed in IVF medium, and then moved to fresh IVF medium for 5 or 6 h. Although the 6 h sperm-free cultured group had a higher penetration rate than the 5 h cultured group, the polyspermy rate significantly increased in the 6 h sperm-free cultured group. The gamete co-incubation period was either 20 or 40 min. The 40 min cultured group had a higher rate of blastocyst formation and number of total cells in blastocysts than the 20 min cultured group. In experiment 2, oocytes were inseminated with sperm separated by Pecroll treatment. Percoll treatment increased the rate of oocyte penetration and blastocyst formation compared to the control. In experiment 3, fertilized oocytes were cultured in 25 µL microdroplets (10 gametes/drop) or 500 µL (100 gametes/well) of culture medium in 4-well plates. The large volume of medium significantly reduced the number of dead oocytes and increased the rate of blastocyst formation compared to the small volume. Conclusions: Collectively, these results demonstrate that various fertilization conditions, including modified co-culture period, active sperm separation, and culture medium volume, enhance fertilization efficiency and subsequent embryonic development by decreasing polyspermy occurrence.

[Purpose] Recent studies suggest that ursolic acid (UA) is a potential candidate for a resistance exercise mimetic that can increase muscle mass and alleviate the deleterious effect of skeletal muscle atrophy on bone health. However, these studies evaluated the effects of UA on skeletal muscle and bone tissues, and they have not verified whether such effect could occur concurrently on muscle and bone, as is the case with resistance exercise. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze the effect of UA injection on muscle mass and bone microstructure using an animal model of atrophy to demonstrate the potential of UA as a resistance exercise mimetic. [Methods] The immobilization (IM) method was used on the left hindlimb of Sprague Dawley (SD) rats for 10 days to induce muscle atrophy, whereas the right hindlimb was used as an internal control (IC). The animal models were divided into two groups, SED (sedentary, n=6) and UA (n=6) to demonstrate the effect of UA on atrophic skeletal muscles. The UA group received a daily intraperitoneal injection of UA (5 mg/kg/day) for 8 weeks. After 10 days of IM, the data collected for the IC were compared with that of IM to determine whether muscle atrophy might occur. [Results] Muscle atrophy was induced and bone mineral density (BMD) decreased significantly. The 8-week UA treatment significantly increased the gastrocnemius muscle mass compared to the SED group. In regard to the effect of UA on bones, negative results such as a decrease in BMD, trabecular bone volume fraction, and trabecular number, and an increase in trabecular separation, were observed in the SED group, but no such difference was observed in the UA group. No significant difference was observed in atrophic hindlimbs between SED and UA groups. [Conclusion] These results alone are insufficient to suggest that UA is a potential resistance exercise mimetic for atrophic skeletal muscle and weakened bone. However, this study will help determine the potential of UA as a resistance exercise mimetic.

Currently, yellow phosphor of Y3Al5O12:Ce3+ (YAG:Ce) fluorescent material is applied to a 450~480nm blue LED light source to implement a white LED device and it has a simple structure, can obtain sufficient luminance, and is economical. However, in this method, in terms of spectrum analysis, it is difficult to mass-produce white LEDs having the same color coordinates due to color separation cause by the wide wavelength gap between blue and yellow band. There is a disadvantage that it is difficult to control optical properties such as color stability and color rendering. In addition, this method does not emit purple light in the range of 380 to 420nm, so it is white without purple color that can not implement the spectrum of the entire visible light spectrum as like sunlight. Because of this, it is difficult to implement a color rendering index(CRI) of 90 or higher, and natural light characteristics such as sunlight can not be expected. For this, need for a method of implementing sunlight with one LED by using a method of combining phosphors with one light source, rather than a method of combining red, blue, and yellow LEDs. Using this method, the characteristics of an artificial sunlight LED device with a spectrum similar to that of sunlight were demonstrated by implementing LED devices of various color temperatures with high color rendering by injecting phosphors into a 405nm deep blue LED light source. In order to find the spectrum closest to sunlight, different combinations of phosphors were repeatedly fabricated and tested. In addition, reliability and mass productivity were verified through temperature and humidity tests and ink penetration tests.

Cellulose is an abundant biodegradable material in nature with excellent properties, but due to its poor processability, it has been widely studied for processing through modification. Cellulose acetate propionate (CAP) is a cellulose derivative in which the hydroxyl group of cellulose is replaced by acetyl and propionyl groups. CAP has several advantages, such as excellent solubility, structural stability, light and weather resistance, and good transparency. Porous nanofibers with excellent specific surface area, which can be applied in various fields, can be easily formed by the phase separation method using highly volatile solvents. High speed centrifugal spinning is a nano/micro fiber preparation method with advantages such as fast spinning and easy alignment control. In this study, a CAP/polybutylene succinate (PBS) spinning solution with chloroform as solvent was prepared to prepare porous microfibers and the fiber morphology was examined as a function of the disk rotation speed in an high speed centrifugal spinning device.

이 논문에서는 포스트텐션 구조물에 적용되는 그라우팅 품질확보를 위한 재료개선 및 실험과정을 기술하였다. 그라우팅이란 강연선이 삽입된 덕트를 시멘트물질로 채우는 공정이다. 국내에서는 아직 그라우팅의 품질과 포스트텐션 구조물의 내구성에 대한 관계가 인식되지 않아 적절한 품질관리에 어려움이 있다. 국내표준시험법은 강연선에 의한 심지효과(wick effect)를 고려하지 않기 때문에 시공 시 발생할 수 있는 재료분리량을 평가하기 어렵다. 따라서 현 품질기준을 만족하는 그라우트를 사용하더라도, 시공 시 과다한 불리딩 수나 재료수축이 발생할 수 있다. 이 연구에서는 그라우트에 관련된 해외기준과 표준시험법을 조사하여 국내기준 및 표준시험법과 비교한 후 해외기준에 준하는 성능을 나타낼 수 있는 그라우트 구성성분비 및 혼화제를 제시하여 보았다. 개선된 그라우트의 성능을 해외표준시험법에 따라 일반적으로 적용되고 있는 그라우트재와 비교하였으며 PC빔의 덕트형상을 고려한 목업시험을 통하여 흐름유형(flow pattern) 및 충전성능을 관찰하였다. 이 실험을 통하여 그라우팅의 성능은 재료특성에 의하여 높은 영향을 받으며 적용 대상의 기하학적 형상에 따라 상이한 충전특성을 가진다는 것 알 수 있었다.
