  • In this paper a review of literature on Nuruk(yeast) between 1907 and 1945 was made, which showed that barley, rice bran, oat, rye, and other ingredients were originally used according to region and production quantity. Yeast can be classified into rough (Chokuk) and powder (Bunkuk) types depending on the degree of grinding. Yeast also had seasonal names, being called " Choonkuk", Hakuk", Jeolkuk", and "Dongkuk" in the spring, summer, autumn and wither respectively. The form of yeast in terms of quantity, size, and shape varied greatly by region, Production facilities were composed of plant structures to suit each process, enabling continuous output. The production process included shaping, placement in the fermenting chamber, piling by turns, risk-sifting and final output. Testing procudures were divided into visual inspection, physical testing, and chemical analyses.

  • The aim of this study was to produce Aminotosan$^{(R)}$ fertilizer using optimized chitosan coagulant from waste livestock blood. Amino-acid fertilizer was produced by pretreated livestock blood. Chitosan coagulant was aggregated with amino-acid fertilizer to produce Aminotosan$^{(R)}$. Optimized coagulation conditions were set using chitosan coagulant such as 10% citric acid and 500 ppm chitosan coagulant by analysis of CST and TTF. The efficiency of coagulation by chitosan coagulant under the optimal conditions was better than chemical coagulants. After solid/liquid separation for coagulated amino-acid fertilizer, Aminotosan$^{(R)}$ fertilizer which added eco-friendly and aesthetic functions was produced.

  • To test the fracture toughness of alumina; a Surface-Crack-in-Flexure (SCF) method, a Single-Edge-Precracked-Beam (SEPB) method and a Single-Edge-V-Notched-Beam (SEVNB) method were used at crosshead rates ranging from 0.005 mm/min to 2 mm/ min and relative humidity ranging from $15\%\;to\;80\%$. The results show that the fracture toughness tested by the SCF method increases with either an increasing loading rate or decreasing relative humidity; in contrast, the toughness by the SEPB method and the SEVNB method does not depend on the loading rate or the relative humidity. Theoretical analysis of the way slow crack growth affects the apparent fracture toughness indicates that the three testing methods have different effects with respect to the loading rate and the relative humidity; moreover, these differences are attributable to differences in the size of the cracks or notches.

  • The aim of this study was to implement massive parallel sequencing (MPS) technology in clinical genetics testing. We developed and tested an amplicon-based method for resequencing the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes on an Illumina MiSeq to identify disease-causing mutations in patients with hereditary breast or ovarian cancer (HBOC). The coding regions of BRCA1 and BRCA2 were resequenced in 96 HBOC patient DNA samples obtained from different sample types: peripheral blood leukocytes, whole blood drops dried on paper, and buccal wash epithelia. A total of 16 random DNA samples were characterized using standard Sanger sequencing and applied to optimize the variant calling process and evaluate the accuracy of the MPS-method. The best bioinformatics workflow included the filtration of variants using GATK with the following cut-offs: variant frequency >14%, coverage ($>25{\times}$) and presence in both the forward and reverse reads. The MPS method had 100% sensitivity and 94.4% specificity. Similar accuracy levels were achieved for DNA obtained from the different sample types. The workflow presented herein requires low amounts of DNA samples (170 ng) and is cost-effective due to the elimination of DNA and PCR product normalization steps.

  • 본 연구에서는 개발한 Chemical Compaction Pile(이하 CCP)공법의 연약지반 개량의 적용성을 평가하기 위하여 모형 아크릴 토조와 CCP 전용 토조를 제작하였으며, CCP를 구성하는 주재료인 Bottom Ash, 생석회 및 첨가재의 배합비를 실험변수로 하여 지반의 종류에 따른 함수비, 전단강도의 변화를 측정하였다. 실험결과, 지반의 함수비 감소나 강도증진효과는 생석회의 함유량이 많을수록 크게 나타났으며, 지반개량효과도 짧은 시일 내에 나타나는 것이 확인되었다. 또한, 지반개량에 따른 전단강도의 증진과 함수비의 변화는 지반의 종류에 따라서도 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 그 외에도 개발된 CCP는 충분한 지지력도 확보하고 있어 연약지반개량과 함께 지지말뚝으로써의 기능성이 있는 것으로 평가되었다.

  • This study examined the effects of the addition of maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) and polyolefin elastomer (POE) on polyamide 66 (PA66) and polypropylene (PP) blends. The blends of PA66/PP with PP-g-MA and POE were prepared using a twin screw extruder. Mechanical testing results revealed that the tensile, flexural, and izod impact strengths of the blends were maximized at a PP-g-MA content of 2 phr. The increased mechanical strength of the blends with PP-g-MA was attributed to the compatibilizing effect of the PA66 and PP blends. In addition, as the POE content increased, the impact strength of the blends increased. However, at a high POE content, the tensile and flexural strengths decreased, seemingly because of the lower mechanical properties of POE.

  • Objectives: We have investigated the toxic effects of the inhalation of subchronic and acute levels of n-octane. Methods: The rats were exposed to n-octane of 0, 2.34, 11.68 and 23.36 mg/L (n = 5 rats/group/gender) in an acute inhalation test (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) TG 403), or to 0, 0.93, 2.62 and 7.48 mg/L (n = 10 rats/group/gender) for a subchronic inhalation test (OECE TG 413), to establish a national chemical management system consistent with the Globally Harmonized Classification System (GHS). Results: Acutely-exposed rats became lethargic but recovered following discontinuation of inhalation. Other clinical symptoms such as change of body weight and autopsy finds were absent. The LC50 for the acute inhalation toxicity of n-octane was determined to exceed 23.36 mg/L and the GHS category was 'not grouping'. Subchronically-treated rats displayed no significant clinical and histopathological differences from untreated controls; also, target organs were affected hematologically, biochemically and pathologically. Therefore, the no observable adverse effect level was indicated as exceeding 7.48 mg/L and the GHS category was 'not grouping' for the specific target organ toxicity upon repeated exposure. Conclusion: However, n-octane exposure should be controlled to be below the American Conference of Industrial Hygienists recommendation (300 ppm) to prevent inhalation-related adverse health effects of workers.

  • 대구경 배관에서 소구경 배관으로 연결하는 부위 및 배관의 방향 전환을 위해 사용하는 소켓용접부는 용입불량 및 사용시간이 경과되면서 내부로부터 진전될 수 있는 균열 등의 결함을 가질 수 있다. 그러나 지금까지 적용하고 있는 비파괴검사법인 액체침투탐상과 방사선투과검사로는 내부에 존재하는 균열성 결함의 검출이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 소켓용접부 내부의 균열성 결함 검출을 위한 초음파 검사 기법을 확립하였고, 검사를 수행할 수 있는 초음파 탐촉자를 설계 제작하였으며, 자동으로 검사할 수 있는 검사 장비와 제어용 운영 프로그램을 개발하였다. 개발된 장비는 컴퓨터를 기반으로 하고 있으며, pulser/receiver를 내장하고 100 MHz 고속 A/D board를 사용하여 초음파 탐상기 역할을 프로그램으로 구현하였으며, ISA interface type으로 4축 제어용 motion controller를 개발하여 자동 검사를 수행하는 scanner를 제어하도록 하였으며, 검사 결과는 소켓용접부 단면을 실시간 영상으로 나타내도록 되어 있다. 인공결함 시험편의 결함을 평가한 결과 결함의 깊이가 1mm인 결함의 평가 길이는 실제 크기보다 작게 나타내고 있으며, 결함의 깊이가 증가할수록 결함의 길이가 더 크게 평가되었다. 본 연구로 개발한 장비는 원자력 발전소나 화학플랜트에 많이 널려 있는 소켓용접부 내의 용입불량, 피로 균열 등을 검출하여 객관적인 검사 결과를 제시할 수 있으므로 설비 안전 관리 및 보수 부위 결정에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
