The advent of photonic technologies in the field of communications and data transmission has been heavily increasing the demand in integrated optical (IO) circuits capable of accomplishing not only simple tasks like signal, but also more sophisticated functions like all-optical signal routing or active multiplexing/demultiplexing. In the last decade, sol-gel technology has been widely used to prepare optical materials. Sol-gel processes show many promises for the development of low-loss, high-performance glass integrated optical circuits. However, crack formation is likely to occur during heat treatment in thick gel films. In order to overcome the critical thickness limitation, the organic-modified silicate has been widely used. In this case coating matrices have been prepared from the organo-silanes of T structures, acidic catalyst and the as-prepared gel films have been heat-treated below 200$^{\circ}C$ to avoid the crack formation and the degradation of organic components. However, the films prepared in the acidic condition and the low heat temperature make the films contain high OH groups which is the major optical loss function. In this work, C$\sub$6/H$\sub$5/SiO$\sub$1.5/ films were prepared on silicon substrate by sol-gel method using base catalyst in a PTMS/NH$_4$OH/H$_2$O/C$_2$H$\sub$5/OH system. The sol showed spinable viscosity at 50 wt% of solid content, and neglectable viscosity change with time. The films were crack-free and transparent after curing at 450 $^{\circ}C$, and highly condensed to minimize OH content in C$\sub$6/H$\sub$5/SiO$\sub$1.5/ networks. The effects of heat treatment of the films are characterized on the critical thickness, the chemical composition and the refractive indices by means of SEM, FT-IR, TGA, prism coupler, respectively.

이산화우라늄을 질산 및 미량의 불산으로 녹인 다음 우라늄 매트릭스로부터 규소를 분리하지 않고 분광광도계(spectrophotometer)로 측정할 수 있는 분석조건을 검토하였다. 분광광도계로 미량의 규소를 측정할 때 미량의 불산이 규소 분석에 미치는 영향을 조사하였으며, 불산의 간섭을 방지하기 위하여 붕산을 사용하였다. 우라늄 용액에서 미량의 불산이 존재할 경우 포화붕산 사용 유무에 따른 규소의 회수율은 각각 $103.3{\pm}0.8$ 및 $76.6{\pm}6.8%$이었다. 포화붕산의 양은 규소의 회수율에 크게 영향을 미치지 않았다. 따라서 본 방법으로 이산화우라늄 분말 중의 불순물로 존재하는 미량의 규소를 분리 과정없이 바로 UV-VIS 분광광도법으로 정량할 수 있었다.

Flunixin is a veterinary nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent whose residues have been investigated in their original form within tissues such as muscle and liver. However, flunixin remains in milk as a metabolite, and 5-hydroxy flunixin has been used as the primary marker for its surveillance. This study aimed to develop a quantitative method for detecting flunixin and 5-hydroxy flunixin in milk and to strengthen the monitoring system by applying to other livestock and fishery products. Two different methods were compared, and the target compounds were extracted from milk using an organic solvent, purified with C₁₈, concentrated, and reconstituted using a methanol-based solvent. Following filtering, the final sample was analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Method 1 is environmentally friendly due to the low use of reagents and is based on a multi-residue, multi-class analysis method approved by the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. The accuracy and precision of both methods were 84.6%-115% and 0.7%-9.3%, respectively. Owing to the low matrix effect in milk and its convenience, Method 1 was evaluated for other matrices (beef, chicken, egg, flatfish, and shrimp) and its recovery and coefficient of variation are sufficient according to the Codex criteria (CAC/GL 71-2009). The limits of detection and quantification were 2-8 and 5-27 ㎍/kg for flunixin and 2-10 and 6-33 ㎍/kg for 5-hydroxy flunixin, respectively. This study can be used as a monitoring method for a positive list system that regulates veterinary drug residues for all livestock and fisheries products.

Twenty seafood samples, which are common edible species and commercially important items in Korea, were purchased at the local fisheries markets and were analyzed for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometer detector (GC/MSD). The levels of sixteen PAHs in seafood from Korean coasts were 161 to 2,243 pg/g wet weight. The highest concentration was found at saury (Coloabis saira) and the lowest level was found at jacopever (Sebastes schlegeli). The concentrations of potentially carcinogenic PAHs of six species were in the range of 9 to 123 pg/g wet weight. The residues of PAHs in fishes from Korean coasts were slightly low or relatively moderate to other countries. There was no correlation between PAH residues and lipid contents in seafood samples. The predominant contributors in fish samples were lower-molecular-weight two and three ring aromatic PAHs such as naphthalene, acenaphthene, fluorene and phenanthrene. Filter-feeding organisms like shrimp, crab and topshell were dominated by three- and four-ring aromatic PAHs. The PAH profiles in marine sediments, bivalves, fishes, shrimp, crab and topshell according to exposure pathway were compared through factor analysis. The PAH profiles were clearly classified by the difference of species or environmental matrices. This result suggests that most of PAHs within the same samples behave identically in marine environment.

두 개의 회전하는 사분파장판을 가진 타원편광분석기에서 광학계가 오차를 포함하지 않는 경우와 5가지의 체계적 오차(두 개의 사분파장판의 정렬오차와 지연오차, 검광판의 정렬오차)를 포함하는 경우에 측정신호를 핏팅하여 구한 퓨리어 계수와 뮬러매트릭스와의 관계를 분석하였다. 5가지 체계적 오차를 포함하는 경우 전산모사를 이용해 비교 분석한 결과 사분파장판의 지연 오차가 정렬오차보다 뮬러매트릭스 대각선 요소에 야기하는 오차가 더 크다는 것을 찾아내었다. 각속도의 회전비를 1:5로 선택시 첫 번째 사분파장판의 초기 정렬오차와 두 번째 사분 파장판의 초기 정렬오차가 뮬러 매트릭스에 야기하는 오차가 같다는 것을 전모사를 통해 찾아 내었다. 5가지 체계적인 오차를 전산모사를 통해 분석한 결과 검광판의 정렬오차(${\epsilon}_5$)가 야기하는 뮬러 매트릭스 오차와 사분파장판의 정렬오차(${\epsilon}_3$, ${\epsilon}_4$)가 야기하는 뮬러 매트릭스 오차를 비교하면 대각선 요소($m_{22}$와 $m_{33}$)의 상대 오차는 0.18%이며 비 대각선요소($m_{23}$와 $m_{32}$)는 2배 차이가 남을 찾아내었다. 이 결과들을 활용하여 측정대상 물질의 보다 정확한 뮬러매트릭스를 얻을 수 있다.

$1000{\mu}g/g$ 염소 표준용액 중 미량 브롬 불순물 분석을 위해 동위원소희석 질량분석법을 이용하였다. 염소 표준용액 제조에는 비교적 불순물이 적은 KCl 염이 사용되었기 때문에 고농도의 염소 표준용액 중 미량 브롬 불순물 분석은 다량의 K와 Cl 매질로 인한 분광간섭 및 매질효과로 인해 측정이 어렵다. 따라서 브롬을 고농도의 공존원소로부터 분리하기 위해 AG2-X8의 음이온교환수지를 사용하였으며, 브롬 측정 시 ICP-MS의 RF power는 1500 W로 올리고 운반기체유량은 0.77 L/min로 내려서 $ArArH^+$분자이온에 의한 바탕값을 낮추었다. $1000{\mu}g/g$ 염소 표준용액 중 불순물 브롬을 표준물 첨가법으로 분석한 결과는 43.7 ng/g이며, 이온교환수지 처리과정의 재현성 문제로 인한 불확도를 줄이기 위해 동위원소희석법을 사용하여 측정한 결과는 41.2 ng/g(RSD 1.6%)로서 잘 일치하였다.

This study investigated the status and analyzed of stray dogs, stray cats admitted to the Jeju Animal Shelter during the year of 2015 to 2019, and the infection rates of specific diseases for abandoned dogs. In addition, in 2017 to 2019, the collected intake and outcome data were reviewed to analyze shelter capacity in terms of housing capacity (monthly daily average intake, required holding capacity, and adoption-driven capacity), staff capacity (staff hours required for daily care). Out of 24,557 dogs admitted to the shelter, owners of 1,808 dogs (7.4%) visited the shelter and found their lost dogs, while 3,612 dogs (14.7%) were adopted to new families. However, the number of puppies that were euthanized was the highest at 12,266 (49.9%), and 6,876 (28%) died either death from disease or natural causes because they were detained in shelters. The monthly daily average (MDA), which is one of the indicators for efficient population management of Jeju Animal Shelter, was found to be 17.4 for abandoned dogs and 1.7 for abandoned cats. Seasonal variations were observed for MDA, RHC, MDA adoptions, ADC, and RSDC, indicating that various strategies are needed for shelter management. This study was performed to analyze and interpret meaningful statistics for improving the efficiency of animal shelters in Jeju. However, inconsistent collection of animal statistics limited data compilation. Creation of a basic animal statistics matrix with reference to well-designed matrices from recognized professional animal shelters is essential.

Moisture content influences physiological characteristics of microbes and physical structure of solid matrices during composting of animal manure. If moisture content is maintained at a proper level, aerobic microorganisms show more active oxygen consumption during composting due to increased microbial activity. In this study, optimum moisture levels for composting of two bedding materials (sawdust, rice hull) and two different mixtures of bedding and beef manure (BS, Beef cattle manure+sawdust; BR, Beef cattle manure+rice hull) were determined based on oxygen uptake rate measured by a pressure sensor method. A broad range of oxygen uptake rates (0.3 to 33.3 mg $O_2/g$ VS d) were monitored as a function of moisture level and composting feedstock type. The maximum oxygen consumption of each material was observed near the saturated condition, which ranged from 75% to 98% of water holding capacity. The optimum moisture content of BS and BR were 70% and 57% on a wet basis, respectively. Although BS's optimum moisture content was near saturated state, its free air space kept a favorable level (above 30%) for aerobic composting due to the sawdust's coarse particle size and bulking effect.

Alternaria species are common saprophytes or pathogens of a wide range of plants pre- and post-harvest. This review considers the relative importance of Alternaria species, their ecology, competitiveness, production of mycotoxins and the prevalence of the predominant mycotoxins in different food products. The available toxicity data on these toxins and the potential future impacts of Alternaria species and their toxicity in food products pre- and post-harvest are discussed. The growth of Alternaria species is influenced by interacting abiotic factors, especially water activity ($a_w$), temperature and pH. The boundary conditions which allow growth and toxin production have been identified in relation to different matrices including cereal grain, sorghum, cottonseed, tomato, and soya beans. The competitiveness of Alternaria species is related to their water stress tolerance, hydrolytic enzyme production and ability to produce mycotoxins. The relationship between A. tenuissima and other phyllosphere fungi has been examined and the relative competitiveness determined using both an Index of Dominance ($I_D$) and the Niche Overlap Index (NOI) based on carbon-utilisation patterns. The toxicology of some of the Alternaria mycotoxins have been studied; however, some data are still lacking. The isolation of Alternaria toxins in different food products including processed products is reviewed. The future implications of Alternaria colonization/infection and the role of their mycotoxins in food production chains pre- and post-harvest are discussed.
