Molecular targeting may be defined as the specific concentration of a diagnostic or therapeutic tracer by its Interaction with a molecular species that is distinctly present or absent in a disease state. Monoclonal antibody (mAb) is one of the successful agents for targeted therapy in cancer. To enhance the therapeutic effect, the concept of targeting radionuclides to tumors using radiolabeled mAbs against tumor-associated antigens, radioimmunotherapy, was proposed. The efficacy of radioimmunotherapy, however, has to be further optimized. Several strategies to improve targeting of tumors with radiolabeled mAbs have been developed, such as the use of mAb fragments, the use of high-affinity mAbs, the use of labeling techniques that are stable in vivo, active removal of the radiolabeled mAb from the circulation, and pretargeting strategies. Until now, however, there are many kinds of obstacles to be solved in the use of mAb for the targeted therapy. Major technical challenges to molecular targeting are related to the rapid and specific delivery of tracers to the target, the elimination of unwanted background activity, and the development of more specific targets to create a cytocidal effect. further development of this field will be determined by success in solving these challenges.

The internal environment in pig house is closely related to the animal productivity. In addition, it is important to consider a working environment inside the pig house due to high gas and dust concentrations. The poor working environment inside the pig house can cause health problems including respiratory diseases. To analyze the working environment, it is important to evaluate the ventilation efficiency to effectively remove harmful gases and dust. The purpose of this study is to develop a 3D CFD model to analyze the working environment in the pig house. CFD model was validated by comparing air temperature distributions between CFD computed and field measured data. The average air flow rate at the pig height was 40.1 % lower than the working height when incoming air was concentrated on upper layer by the installed ventilation system on the experimental pig house. Using the validated CFD model, the regional ventilation efficiency was computed by the TGD(tracer gas decay) method at the pig and working heights. There was a difference of ventilation efficiency on 14 % between the air stagnated section and the rest sections. Stagnated gas concentration can be effected by animal and human health.

An objective of this study is to give practical information that could be used for calculating pollutant emission factors and fuel economy from Korean Inspection & Maintenance program, which has been using steady state acceleration simulation mode. Concentration results from I/M test is adequately converted to mass emission factors and fuel efficiency data, which have unit of g/km and km/L, respectively. Exhaust volume flow(EVF), which is for converting emission result from concentration to mass, is measured by tracer method in various vehicle speed - power condition. It is found that there is an apparent second order relationship between EVF and vehicle inertia weight. EVF is expressed in function of vehicle inertia weight in order to estimate EVF in I/M site without measuring device. Converted mass emission results from measured EVF and raw emission analyzer show a satisfactory agreement with those from conventional CVS-bag type measurement system. Mass emission factors and fuel efficiency from measured EVF and estimated EVF also show good agreement to each other. Considering that an I/M program has great advantages to recruit-based emission test in terms of the number of test vehicle, the information in this study can be used for developing an alternative procedure to collect more various data to establish national database of mobile emission factors and fuel economy, even though the driving cycle in I/M program is steady state cycle rather than transient cycle.

In this study, a novel method was proposed to test the integrity of water treatment system specifically equipped with membrane filtration process. We applied the silica particles coated with a fluorescent agent (rhodamine B isothiocyanate) as a surrogate to detect a membrane process integrity and evaluate the reliability of effluent quality in the system. Additionally, a series of experiments was conducted to evaluate the sensitivity of the method through the laboratory scale experiment. The laboratory scale experiments showed that the feasibility of application of proposed method to detect a breach or damaged part on the membrane surface. However, the sensitivity on predicting the area of a breach was significantly influenced by the testing conditions such as a concentration of surrogate, filtration flux, and detection time. The lowest error of predicting the area of breach was 3.5% at the testing condition of surrogate concentration of 80 mg/L injected with flux of $20L/m^2/hr$ for 10 minutes of detection time for the breach having the actual area of $7.069mm^2$. However, the error of estimation was increased at the small breach with area less than $0.785mm^2$. A future study will be conducted to estimate a damaged area with more accuracy and precision.

Rosette-type diffusers with four-ports per riser are constructed in relatively shallow water in Korea. However, the trajectorial bending phenomena due to lower-pressure inside the surrounded buoyant jets on the riser was not considered in most models and was not observed without any experimental results. The buoyant jet behavior affected by the bending effect where there have been growing interests need to be verified experimentally and need to be preceded in the analysis of the characteristics of the buoyant jets oil a riser. The hydraulic model experiments have been carried out to investigate the characteristics of the behavior of horizontal buoyant jets discharged from a Rosette-type riser with four ports as well as single port over a certain range of the experimental conditions including initial momentum and initial buoyancy using LIF (Laser Induced Fluorescence) system to obtain concentration fields. The intensity of the fluorescent light in each pixel on the images obtained from LIF system with the tracer of Rhodamine H was converted to the local dye concentration with a set of calibration procedures to account for the non-uniform distribution of light intensity and the attenuation of light energy by water medium. The experimental results shows that the trajectories from Your ports tend to bend more and more to the inner side with the increase of the densimetric Froude number while the buoyant jet from a single port rises up without any bending phenomena. The previous models, VISJET and Seo et al. (2002), do not simulate the trajectories well except the region before the bending section. This study will focus on the analysis of the behavior of the buoyant jets for mainly a Rosette-type riser by conducting hydraulic model experiments using LIF system.

1988년 5월 한바다호를 이용하여 울릉분지 해역의 21개 정점에서 CTD 관측과 동시 에 화학성분들의 개관적 분포 특성을 최대 600 m 깊이까지 조사하였다. 조사 성분들의 대표적 수직분포를 하면, 영양염이 고갈되어 있는 30~40 m 두께의 표면혼합층과 수온 및 염분을 포함한 모든 화학성분들이 급격한 변화를 보이는 수온약층, 그리고 거의 특 성이 균일한 수심 약 200 m 이하의 심층으로 구분된다. 북위 37$^{\circ}$ 12'을 동서로 잇는 CTD 관측선상에서 약 190 m 깊이에 동해 중층수의 특징인 염분 최소층이 관측되었으 나, 이층의 용존산소 농도가 230~275 uM로서 기존에 알려진 동해 중층수의 특징인 290 uM (6.5 ml/l) 이상의 용존 산소가 관측되지 않았다. 그러나 겉보기 산소활용 (AOU)과 질산염, 인산염, 규산염 염분 최소층에서 그 위나 아래 깊이에 비하여 일관성 있게 작은 농도를 보였다. 따라서, 염분 감소에 따른 겉보기 산소활용 및 제영양염들 의 감소 경향을 통해 중층수의 특징으로 규정할 수 있으며, 동해 해수의 새로운 추적 자로서 활용 가능성이 발견되었다.

피흡착체에 대하여 곡선형 흡착등온곡선을 가지는 흡착체가 토양내 수용액상에서 이동할 때 직선형 흡착등온곡선을 가지는 흡착체와 다른 유동특성을 보인다는 사실은 널리 알려져 있다. 그러나 실험적으로 이와 같은 특성이 정밀하게 연구된 바는 그리 많지 않으며 특히 NAPLS(Non-Aqueous Phase Liquids)로서 오염된 지역의 NAPLs의 양과 미시적인 분포를 알아내기 위하여 사용되는 수리지질학적 추적자 기법에 대하여는 거의 실험된 바가 없다. 본 연구는 NAPL과 수용액간의 비계면적을 측정하기 위하여 사용되는 양이온계 계면활성제 (계면추적자), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC)가 미세한 유리구슬로 충진된 스테인레스 컬럼내부를 통과하며 보이는 파과특성을 분석하였다. 유리구슬의 평균직경은 110$\mu\textrm{m}$였으며, 구슬의 표면은 n-decane의 얇은 막으로서 도포되어 있다. CPC는 유동하며 n-decane과 수용액의 계면에 흡착하게 되며, 실험결과 전형적인 Langmuir type의 흡착 특성을 보이는 것으로 나타났다. 앞부분과 뒷부분의 파과곡선은 각기 현저히 다른 양상을 보이며 이는 흡착등온곡선의 비직선적인 성격때문인 것으로 풀이된다. 또한 CPC의 지체상수는 CPC의 농도와 밀접한 함수관계가 있는 것으로 풀이된다. 또한 CPC의 지체상수는 CPC의 농도와 밀접한 함수관계가 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 컬럼에 투입되는 CPC가 pulse input일 때의 지체상수는 pulse input의 파과곡선상 나타나는 최대농도를 input농도로서 사용한 step input시의 지체상수와 일치하였다. 이 결과는 수리지질학적 특성치를 알아내기 위하여 최근 들어 활발히 개발되고 있는 추적자 기법을 적용하는데 있어서 일반적으로 통용되는 가정을 실험적으로 증명하였다는 데 그 의의가 있다.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to estimate the ventilation rate of residential homes in Korea through tracer gas methods using indoor and outdoor concentrations of carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) and $CO_2$ generation rates from breathing. Methods: In this study, we calculated the number of occupants in a home by time through data on the average number of people per household from the Korean National Statistical Office and also measured the amount of $CO_2$ generation by breathing to estimate the indoor $CO_2$ generation rate. To estimate the ventilation rate, several factors such as the $CO_2$ generation rate and average volume of residential house provided by the Korean National Statistical Office, indoor $CO_2$ concentrations measured by sensors, and outdoor $CO_2$ concentrations provided by the Korea Meteorological Administration, were applied to a mass balance model for residential indoor environments. Results: The average number of people were 2.53 per household and Koreans spend 61.0% of their day at home. The $CO_2$ generation rate from breathing was $13.9{\pm}5.3L/h$ during sleep and $15.1{\pm}5.7L/h$ in a sedentary state. Indoor and outdoor $CO_2$ concentrations were 849 ppm and 407 ppm, respectively. The ventilation rate in Korean residential houses calculated by the mass balance model were $42.1m^3/h$ and 0.71 air change per hour. Conclusions: The estimated ventilation rate tended to increase with an increase in the number of occupants. Since sensor devices were used to collect data, sustainable data could be collected to estimate the ventilation rate of Korean residential homes, which enables further studies such as on changes in the ventilation rate by season resulting from the activities of occupants. The results of this study could be used as a basis for exposure and risk assessment modeling.
