Modeling은 기상의 흐름, 화학반응 및 대기오염물질의 형성과정 등 대기현상을 과학적으로 이해하고 개발계획 및 대기 개선에 따른 정책수립의 기초자료로 활용된다. 최근 컴퓨팅 계산능력이 발전하면서 수치모델의 모델링 영역과 모델결과의 이용분야가 점차 다양해지고 있으며, 오염물질 발생원으로부터 시간의 흐름에 따라 오염물질농도를 예측이 가능해졌다. 본 연구는 일산열병합발전소 및 고양시 소각장 주변지역을 대상으로 CALPUFF 확산모델을 적용하여 대기 중 배출 된 NO와 TSP의 확산을 모사하고, 실제 측정결과와 비교함으로써 배출원에 의한 주변지역의 기여농도를 검토하였다. 1, 2차 $NO_2$ 기여율 비교 결과 A-3 지점이 타 지점에 비해 비교적 높게 나타났으며, 이는 열병합발전소 및 소각시설에서 배출되는 질소산화물의 영향이 타 지역에 비해 비교적 높다는 것을 알 수 있다. 1, 2차 TSP 기여율 비교 결과 A-5 지점이 비교적 타 지점에 비해 다소 높게 나타났으나, 기여율 값이 매우 낮음에 따라 열병합발전소 및 소각시설에서 배출되는 먼지에 의한 영향은 비교적 낮다고 판단된다.

The adzuki bean (Vigna angularis L.) is a red-grained legume that has a number of essential nutrients and is used in traditional dishes in Asia. Adzuki bean industrial by-products are also a potential low-cost source of some unique bioactive polyphenols. Hence, here, the authors aimed to perform a comparative study of the phytochemical profiles of the leaves and seeds of the adzuki bean and compare their antioxidant, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition, and tyrosinase inhibition activity. The authors assessed antioxidant activity by DPPH, ABTS, FRAP, PR, TPC, and SOD assays, which showed wide variation, respectively. From the relative antioxidant capacity index results, 10 adzuki bean landraces were selected to compare for phytochemicals and bioactivity using leaf and seed extracts. Antioxidant, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibition, and tyrosinase inhibition activity in the leaf extracts were higher than in the seed extracts, and there were more flavonols and isoflavones in the leaf extracts than in the seed extracts. This study demonstrated that adzuki bean leaf extracts could be a new natural antioxidant or antidiabetic agent and a skin whitener and can also be used in industrial applications.

Purpose: This study aims to develop a multi-purpose electron beam irradiation device for preclinical research and material testing using the research electron linear accelerator installed at the Dongnam Institute of Radiological and Medical Sciences. Methods: The fabricated irradiation device comprises a dual scattering foil and collimator. The correct scattering foil thickness, in terms of the energy loss and beam profile uniformity, was determined using Monte Carlo calculations. The ion-chamber and radiochromic films were used to determine the reference dose-rate (Gy/s) and beam profiles as functions of the source to surface distance (SSD) and pulse frequency. Results: The dose-rates for the electron beams were evaluated for the range from 59.16 Gy/s to 5.22 cGy/s at SSDs of 40-120 cm, by controlling the pulse frequency. Furthermore, uniform dose distributions in the electron fields were achieved up to approximately 10 cm in diameter. An empirical formula for the systematic dose-rate calculation for the irradiation system was established using the measured data. Conclusions: A wide dose-rate range electron beam irradiation device was successfully developed in this study. The pre-clinical studies relating to FLASH radiotherapy to the conventional level were made available. Additionally, material studies were made available using a quantified irradiation system. Future studies are required to improve the energy, dose-rate, and field uniformity of the irradiation system.

Atmospheric bulk (wet and dry) samples were monthly collected in Masan and Heangam areas of Korea, to assess the deposition flux and seasonal variation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Deposition fluxes of PAHs in bulk samples were determined using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometer detector (GC/MSD). Particle deposition fluxes from Masan and Haengam areas varied from 13 to $87\;g/m^2/year$ and from 5 to $52\;g/m^2/year$, respectively. PAHs deposition fluxes in atmospheric bulk samples in Masan and Haengam areas ranged from 135 to $464\;{\mu}g/m^2/year$ and from 62.2 to $194\;{\mu}g/m^2/year$, respectively. Atmospheric deposition fluxes of particles and PAHs in this study were comparable to or slightly lower values than those from different locations in Korea and other countries. PAHs profiles of atmospheric deposition bulk samples showed slightly different from two sampling areas, however the predominant species of PAHs were similar. Indeno (1,2,3-c,d)pyrene, benzo(g,h,i)perylene, phenanthrene compounds were the most detected PAHs in deposition bulk samples. Carcinogenic PAHs occupied the contribution of approximately $30-40\%$ of the total PAHs deposition fluxes. The non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (MDS) was used, to assess the differentiation of PAHs source between two sampling areas. The result suggests that PAHs contamination sources were different according to the location and season surveyed. There was no an apparent relationship between the PAHs deposition flux against temperature and rainfall amount, even though summer season with the highest temperature and the largest amount of precipitation showed the lowest PAHs deposition flux. Benzo(e)pyrene/benzo(a)pyrene ratio indicated that the photo-degradation process was one of important factors to the seasonal variation of PAHs with the lower deposition fluxes.

Atmospheric bulk (wet and dry) samples were monthly collected in an urban environment (Daeyeon-dong) of Busan over a year, to assess the deposition flux and seasonality of dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls (DLPCBs) using stainless steel pots. Deposition fluxes of DLPCBs in bulk samples were determined using high resolution gas chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (HRGC/HRMS). Particle deposition fluxes in the urban environment varied from 23 to 98 $mg^2$/year (mean 41 $gm^2$/year). DLPCB deposition fluxes in atmospheric bulk samples ranged from 0.09 to 0.77 ng-$TEQ/m^2$/year (mean 0.35 ng-$TEQ/m^2$/year). Seasonal atmospheric deposition fluxes of DLPCBs were high in winter and low in summer. Atmospheric deposition fluxes of particles and DLPCBs in this study were comparable to or slightly lower values than those of different locations in the world. Monthly DLPCB profiles in deposition bulk samples were similar over a year. Non-ortho PCBs were higher contributions to the total DLPCBs fluxes than mono-ortho PCBs. In particular, PCB 126 had the highest concentrartion (>75%) in all deposition samples, followed by PCB 169 and PCB 156. A highly positive correlation was found among the deposition fluxes of DLPCB species, suggesting the possibility of that the DLPCB contamination originated from one source. The deposition fluxes of DLPCBs were not significantly correlated with temperature and the amount of precipitation even though the summer season with the highest temperature and the largest amount of precipitation showed the lowest DLPCB deposition flux.

반사형(혹은 역방향) 결합선로에서 원하는 결합도를 가질 수 있도록 모드 특성임피던스를 합성하는 방법을 새로이 제안하였다. 결합도를 나타내는 일차 비선형 미분방정식의 해 혹은 Riccati 해가 갖는 반복되는 lobe들의 최소점, 즉 null점들을 최적 섭동시키므로서 최적 합성이 이루어진다. 이 과정을 위해 일차원 배열 안테나의 공간인자 패턴 제어를 통한 일차원 비선형 소스 분포함수 합성법을 근간으로 하였으며, 기존의 우함수형 분포함수 합성을 기함수형까지 확장 적용할 수 있는 방법을 제시하였다. 그 결과로서 도출된 모드 특성임피던스들은 연속적이고 비선형적인 프로필을 가지게 된다. 합성된 우함수형 및 기함수형 분포함수에 대응되는, 비대칭형 및 대칭형 결합기들을 비교 분석하였으며, 기존의 설계방법에 비해 일반적이고 간단함을 보였다.

본 연구는 수소로 희석된 $B_2H_6$를 도판트 소스 가스로 사용하여 이온 질량 주입(ion mass doping)을 하였을 때 다결정 박막의 전기적 특성과 도판트의 활성화시 방사 손상(radiation damage)의 효과에 대하여 고찰하였다. 다결정 박막에서 보론(boron)의 SIMS 분석과 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션인 TRIM92를 비교해서 가장 주입 확률이 높은 이온의 종류는 $B_2H_x\;^+$(x=1, 2, 3‥‥) 형태의 분자 이온임을 알았다. 높은 에너지의 질량 이온 주입 결과 시간에 따라 변화하는 비정질화된 층의 분율이 다결정 박막 내에 연속적인 비정질 충으로 존재하였다. 주입 이온의 질량 분리가 일어나지 않는 이온 질량 주입법(ion mass doping technique)에 의해 비정질화는 유발된다. 손상된 시편의 중간 열처리 온도 범위에서 도판트 활성화 거동과 역 열처리(reverse annealing) 효과가 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 연구의 결과 p-채널 다결정 박막 트랜지스터의 오프 스테이트(off-state) 전류는 방사 손상(radiation damage)에 의존한다.

기존 대부분의 천수흐름 해석모형에서는 연직방향으로 균일한 유속을 가정하였기 때문에 하천 만곡부에서 이차류의 영향을 고려하지 못하고 부정확한 흐름해석 결과를 도출하였다. 본 연구에서는 종횡방향 유속의 연직분포를 평균값과 이로부터의 변동량으로 분할하여 이 값들을 운동량 방정식에 대입하여 생성되는 추가적인 항인 분산응력을 포함하는 수치모형을 개발하였다. 제안된 모형을 $30^{\circ}$, $90^{\circ}$, $270^{\circ}$의 곡률을 가지는 수로에 적용하여 분산응력을 이용한 곡선수로에서의 천수흐름을 수치모의 하였다. 모의 결과, 운동량방정식에 포함된 분산응력항은 생성/소멸과 같은 역할을 하여, 만곡의 내측에서 외측으로 횡방향 운동량을 이동시키게 되므로 분산응력을 포함하지 않는 경우 보다 정확한 수치모의 결과를 제시하는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Ammonia ($NH_3$) is an important pollutant that plays a key role in several air pollution problems. It can create odors and have negative impacts on animal and human health. The largest source contributing to Ammonia emission is the agricultural production, in particular animal operation, in Korea. The present study evaluated flux profiles of Ammonia emitted from the cattle housing using a dynamic flux chamber. We have developed the emission factor of Ammonia from the cow housing. Analysis of Ammonia flux variation was made with respect to manure surface temperature, pH, and ammonium concentration. Ammonia has been measured from calf and cattle housing between October and December in 2007. In the fall, average Ammonia flux from calf and cattle housing was estimated 1.342(${\pm}0.728$) and 1.323(${\pm}0.655$)mg/$m^2$/min, respectively. In the winter, average Ammonia flux was estimated 0.889(${\pm}0.362$)mg/$m^2$/min from the calf housing and 0.925(${\pm}0.511$)mg/$m^2$/min from the cattle housing. The correlation coefficient between Ammonia flux and ammonium concentration showed stronger relationship than the relationship between manure pH and temperature. In the fall, Ammonia emission factor from calf and cattle housing was estimated 4.46(${\pm}2.39$) and 6.03(${\pm}3.27$)kg-$NH_3$/animal/yr, respectively. In the winter, average Ammonia flux was estimated 2.88(${\pm}1.53$) from the calf housing and 4.24({$\pm}1.63$)kg-$NH_3$/animal/yr from the cattle housing.

Background: Despite the widespread use of dexamethasone in veterinary and human medicine, it is reported to cause some severe pregnancy related side effects like abortion in some animals. The mechanism of the response is not clear but seems to be related to interspecies and/or breed difference in response which may involve alterations in the concentrations of some reproductive hormones. Methods: Twenty Sahel goats comprising 18 does and 2 bucks were used for this study. Pregnancies were achieved by natural mating after synchronization. Repeated dexamethasone injections were given at 0.25 mg/kg body weight. Blood samples were collected biweekly for hormonal assay. Uterine biopsies were harvested at days 28 and day 78 of gestation through caesarean section for immunohistochemical analysis using 3 pregnant does randomly selected from each group at each instant. Data were expressed as Means ${\pm}$ Standard Deviations and analyzed using statistical soft ware package, GraphPad Instant, version 3.0 (2003) and progesterone receptor (PR) were scored semi-quantitatively. Results: Dexamethasone treatments had no significant (p > 0.05) effect on progesterone and estrogen concentrations in pregnant Sahel goats but up regulated PR from 2+ to 3+ in second trimester. Conclusion: As dexamethasone adverse effect on placenta is an established fact, the lack of effect on progesterone level in this study may be due to the fact that unlike other species whose progesterone production during pregnancy is placenta - dependent, in goats is corpus luteum - dependent. Consequently dexamethasone adverse effect on placenta reported in literatures did not influence progesterone levels during pregnancy in Sahel goat. The up regulation of progesterone receptor (PR) in Sahel goat gravid uterus is a beneficial effects and that dexamethasone can safely be used in corpus luteum - dependent progesterone secreting pregnant animal species like Sahel goat and camel. Therefore source of progesterone secretions during pregnancy should be considered in clinical application of dexamethasone in pregnancy.
