  • We selected a cold-tolerant tea tree (Camellia sinensis L.) through reliable evaluation using a number of cold-tolerance indicators targeting tea tree cultivars such as "Chamnok," "Bohyang," "Sangnok," and "Myungnok" in response to climate change. We conducted a low-temperature damage investigation, "Chamnok" and "Bohyang" were damaged investigated with small amounts of green and bright green. "Sangnok" and "Myungnok" were damaged investigated red and dark red at -10℃. The extent of electrolyte leakage increased as the treatment temperature decreased in all cultivars. We predicted lethal temperatures through non-linear regression analysis, finding relatively higher tolerance to low temperature in "Chamnok" (-9.344℃) and "Bohyang" (- 8.883℃) than that in "Myungnok" (-8.092 ℃) and"Sangnok" (-7.632℃). "Bohyang" showed higher levels of antioxidant activity compared to other cultivars. The lipid peroxidation reaction revealed that "Sangnok" and "Myungnok" had higher MDA content than that of other cultivars when treated at low temperatures. Consequently, predictions of the lethal temperature through non-linear regression analysis of "Chamnok" and "Bohyang" were consistent with their tolerance to low-temperature damage, and antioxidant activity and lipid peroxidation reactions were likewise consistent. The results of this study can be used not only for evaluation and selection of cold-tolerance of tea trees in response to climate change, but also in the cultivation of cold-tolerant plants.

  • Static tests of the composite wing structure were performed to verify damage tolerance design. Both 5 cases of DLLT and 3 cases of DULT were completed to meet requirements for static strength. After inducing BVID and open hole damages on the critical areas of the composite wing based on associated regulations, the DULT and fracture test were performed. In major wing parts, the measured strains and displacements agreed well with those of structural analysis. The initial structural fracture occurred at the area having minimum margin of safety as expected by analysis. As a result, it was confirmed that results from analytic model and strength evaluation were similar to behaviors of the composite wing structure.

  • According as radiation therapy technique develops, standardization of radiation therapy has been complicated by the plan QA(Quality Assurance). However, plan QA tools are two type, OADT (opposite accumulation dose tool) and 3DADT (3 dimensional accumulation dose tool). OADT is not applied to evaluation of beam path. Therefore tolerance error of beam path will establish measurement value at OADT. Plan is six beam path, five irradiation field at each beam path. And beam path error is 0 degree, 0.2 degree, 0.4 degree, 0.6 degree, 0.6 degree, 0.8 degree. Plan QA accomplishes at OADT, 3DADT. The more path error increases, the more plan QA error increases. Tolerance error of OADT path is 0.357 using tolerance error of conventional plan QA. Henceforth plan QA using OADT will include beam path error. In addition, It will increase reliability through precise and various plan technique.

  • The objectives of the study were (1) To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Damtab. (2) To characterize hypoglycemic effect of Damtab, if any. (3) To evaluate insulin sensitivity effect of Damtab, if any. Hypoglycemic effect of Damtab (700 mg and 1,400 mg) were examined. Gliclazide (80 mg) was used as an active control. Placebo was used as control. Breakfast was given, half an hour before dosing whereas lunch, snacks and dinner were given at 6, 10 and 14 h post dose. An oral glucose tolerance test was conducted to calculate the insulin sensitivity index from the values of glucose and insulin during oral glucose tolerance test. Both giclazide 80 mg and Damtab 1,400 mg significantly lowered plasma glucose level up to 6 h. Insulin sensitivity index of Damtab (1,400 mg) was found to be similar to that of placebo. A significant increase in insulin level at 1 h post dose of Damtab (1,400 mg) was observed. Damtab 700 mg shows placebo like effect whereas Damtab 1,400 mg possesses hypoglycemic effect.

  • Autotoxicity restricts reseeding of new alfalfa(Medicago sativa L.) after alfalfa until autotoxic chemical(s) breaks down or is dispersed into external environments, often requiring up to a year or more. One solution for reducing autotoxicity would be to select germplasms or cultivars with tolerance to the autotoxic chemical(5) and use genetically breeding program. Bioassay of seed germination and early seedling growth was conducted to evaluate autotoxic responses of 3 varieties of alfalfa to the water-soluble extracts(at 4 and 8g/L) from alfalfa ‘Cody’leaf by using agar and filter paper medium in a petri-dish assay. Root length at 5 days after seeding was more sensitive to the extract than was hypocotyl length or seed germination, and was a better parameter of autotoxic effects of alfalfa leaf extracts. Use of an agar medium gave better sensitivity of root length than did use of filter paper. Evaluating tolerance with percent of control was more important indicator than was mean of root length because of significant variation among varieties in root length of control treatment. Bioassay ranked varieties in the following order of tolerance on the basis of relative root length; “Cody” >“ Pioneer 5373” >“ Alfagraze”. Seedling growth from old “Cody” seed was more sensitive to the autotoxic chemical(5) than was that from newly produced seed.

  • The present study was conducted to determine the effects of electron beam irradiation on the postharvest quality of cut flowers. Cut flowers were irradiated with electron beam at 100, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1,000, and 2,000 Gy with a 10 MeV linear electron beam accelerator to evaluate their irradiation tolerance. Postharvest quality was determined by monitoring fresh weight loss, flower longevity, flower diameter, flowering rate, visual quality of flowers and leaves, and chlorophyll content. Cut flowers showed a radiation-induced damage with increasing the irradiation dose. Flower longevity and fresh weight of cut flowers decreased when the irradiation dose was increased. Flower bud opening was also inhibited in a dose-dependent manner. The effective irradiation doses for 10% reduction of postharvest quality (ED10) values were 144.4, 451.6, and 841.2 Gy in the 'Medusa' lily, 'Montezuma' carnation, and 'Rosina White' eustoma, respectively. Although tolerance of cut flowers to electron beam irradiation vary according to species, cultivars, or maturity stage conditions, it is conceivable that 'Montezuma' carnation and 'Rosina White' eustoma could be tolerated and maintained overall postharvest quality up to 400 Gy, the generic irradiation dose approved by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) and the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) for postharvest phytosanitary treatments.

  • Tensile properties and fracture toughness of monolithic aluminum, fiber reinforced plastics and glass fiber/aluminum hybrid laminates under tensile loads have been investigated using plain coupon and single-edge-notched specimens. Elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength of GFMLs showed different characteristic behaviors according to the Al kind, fiber orientation and composition ratio. Fracture, toughness of A-GFML-UD which was determined by the evaluation of $K_{IC}$ and $G_{IC}$ based on critical load was similar to that of GFRP-UD and was much higher than monolithic Al. Therefore, A-GFML-UD presented superior fracture toughness as well as prominent damage tolerance in comparison to its constituent Al. By separating Al sheet from GFMLs after the test, optical microscope observation of fracture zone of GFRP layer in the vicinity of crack tip revealed that crack advance of GFMLs depended on the orientation of fiber layer as well as Al/fiber composition ratio.
