본 조사는 육계에게 특정 음원에 장기간 노출시켜 출하 후 비정상계 비율 및 등급판정에 따른 A급 비율을 파악하고자 실시하였다. 음원을 제공하는 4개의 육계농가를 선정하여 클래식 음악을 입추일부터 출하일, 일출시부터 일몰시까지 동일한 시간동안 틀어주었다. 4개 농장에서 총 7회의 걸쳐 현장 조사를 진행한 결과, 음원 노출 여부와 상관없이 육계의 출하 체중은 평균 1.5 kg 내외를 나타내었으며, 처리간 차이는 발생하지 않았다(P>0.05). 음원 노출에 따른 닭고기의 신선도(토리미터 수치), 멍/파계 발생율, 이상율 및 A 등급 발생율에도 차이가 발견되지 않았다. 결론적으로 농장단위에서 육계에 특정 음원을 틀어주어도 출하 체중과 닭고기의 품질 등급에는 영향이 없는 것으로 조사되었다. 향후 특정 음원에 따른 육계의 행동, 스트레스, 면역 등 복지를 나타내는 지표에 대한 추가 연구가 필요하겠다.

Organic enrichment was investigated in surface sediments from the Yeoja and Gangjin Bays of Korea, which contain dense shellfish farms, in order to evaluate the contamination status and temporal changes in shellfish farming along these coasts. The degree of organic enrichment was determined using geochemical indicators (chemical oxygen demand, ignition loss, acid volatile sulfide, total organic carbon in sediments, and total nitrogen in sediments, ammonium and nitrate in pore water, and bioluminescence inhabitation for sediments). Temporal changes in organic enrichment conditions were detected by comparing our 2012 data to those previously reported from a survey conducted in 1999/2000. Organic enrichment was significantly higher in September than in May and July, in Gangjin Bay than in Yeoja Bay, and significantly higher in shellfish farms than in reference sites not used to culture shellfish. Ammonium concentrations in pore water were two orders of magnitude greater than nitrate concentrations, suggesting that these bays represent nitrogen-reducing environments.

This study investigated the possibility of salinity acclimation of freshwater rotifers (Brachionus calyciflorus) as live food for sweetfish (Plecoglossus altivelis) larvae, and also examined the optimal salinity for the growth of sweetfish. Freshwater rotifers cultured in 0 and 4 PSU and seawater rotifers (B. rotundiformis) cultured in 33 PSU were supplied to the larvae with four kinds of enrichment material (condensed freshwater Chlorella, $\omega-yeast,$ baker's yeast, Super Selco) and larval growth at 4 PSU was examined. Growth of the freshwater rotifers positively increased from 0 PSU to 6 PSU, but decreased when over 8 PSU was reached. Growth and survival of the sweet fish larvae reared in 0 PSU were significantly lower than those reared in either 4 PSU or 33 PSU. This indicated that the freshwater rotifers (B. calyciflorus) could be used as live food for sweetfish larvae reared in 4 PSU. The body weight of sweetfish larvae fed on freshwater rotifers enriched with Super Selco was the highest at 0.163 mg, but there was no significant difference in survival and body length of the fish fed with the other enrichment materials. The content of n-3 HUFA of the sweetfish larvae fed on the freshwater rotifers enriched with Super Selco and the condensed freshwater Chlorella was higher than that enriched with $\omega-yeast$ and baker's yeast. These results indicated that B. calyciflorus cultured with the condensed freshwater Chlorella could be used for the sweetfish larvae without enrichment, and the most efficient enrichment material for B. calyciflorus is Super Selco.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of Environmental Enrichment (EE) on improvement of motor function in animal models of Parkinson's Disease. Methods: Male C57BL6 mice weighing 25-30 g, at the age of 12 wks were used in this study. The animals were injected MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridin, 20 mg/kg in saline, i.p.) 4 times a day at every 2 hr, and raised in EE cage for 14 days. On day 14, after behavior test, all mice were sacrificed for immunohistochemistry. All values were expressed as means$\pm$S.E.M. Statistical significance was evaluated using a one way ANOVA followed by Sheffe test. Results: There was a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group in the behavior test. Also EE significantly reduced of TH positive cell loss in Substantia nigra pars compacta as compared to the result of MPTP treatment. Conclusion: Based on these findings, it is reasonable to assume that the environmental enrichment prevents dopaminergic neuronal loss and improves disarrangement of motor function and behavioral disability induced by MPTP.

보다 정확한 우라늄 농축도 분석은 핵물질 관리를 위하여 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 감마선을 이용한 우라늄 농축도 분석에서 시료와 검출기 사이에 차폐체가 있는 경우와 측정시간 변화에 따른 분석결과에 대한 정확성 평가 및 오차분석을 수행하였다. 우라늄 농축도를 분석하기 위하여 FRAM (Fixed energy Response function Analysis with Multiple efficiencies)을 이용하였다. FRAM에 의한 분석결과의 정확성은 화학 분석 결과와의 비교를 통해 평가되었다. 연구결과 선원과 검출기사이에 차폐체가 존재할 경우 차폐체의 두께변화에 따른 감마선의 세기는 지수함수 형태로 감소하며 감마선에너지 피이크의 반치폭 (FWHM : Full Width at Half Maximum)은 차폐체의 두께에 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것을 보였다. 따라서 시료와 검출기 사이에 차폐체가 있는 경우의 우라늄 농축도 분석에서 FRAM을 이용한 감마선분광 분석은 유용하게 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 차폐체 안에 우라늄이 있는 경우 핵물질 분석에 기여할 수 있을 것이 기대된다.

In this study, Malachite Green (MG) dye removal from synthetic wastewaters by adsorption process using raw boron enrichment waste (BEW) and it's modifications (with acid and ultrasound) were aimed. 81% MG removal was obtained by BEW at optimum equilibrium conditions (time: 40 min., dosage: 500 mg/dm³, pH: 5-6, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). MG removal from wastewaters using acid modified boron enrichment waste (HBEW) was determined as 82% at optimum conditions (time: 20 min., dosage: 200 mg/dm³, pH: 10, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). For ultrasound modified BEW (UBEW), the highest MG removal percent was achieved as 84% at optimum conditions (time: 30 min, dosage: 375 mg/ dm³, pH: 8, speed: 200 rpm, 298 K). The equilibrium data of Malachite Green was evaluated for BEW, HBEW and UBEW adsorbents by using sorption isotherms such as Langmuir, Freundlich and Temkin models, out of which Langmuir model (R² = 0.971, 0.987 and 0.984) gave better correlation and maximum adsorption capacity was found to be 147.05, 434.78 and 192.30 mg/g, respectively. The adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation for sorption of MG onto wastes. A look at thermodynamic data reveals that natural sorption is spontaneous and endothermic because of free negative energy exchange and positive change in enthalpy, respectively. The results indicated that boron enrichment waste, and HCl and ultrasound-modified boron enrichment waste served as good alternative adsorbents in dye removal from wastewater.

We present the results of our analysis of the RR Lyrae (RRL) variable stars detected in two transition-type dwarf galaxies (dTrans), ESO294-G010 and ESO410-G005 in the Sculptor group, which is known to be one of the closest neighboring galaxy groups to our Local Group. Using deep archival images from the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) onboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), we have identified a sample of RR Lyrae candidates in both dTrans galaxies [219 RRab (RR0) and 13 RRc (RR1) variables in ESO294-G010; 225 RRab and 44 RRc stars in ESO410-G005]. The metallicities of the individual RRab stars are calculated via the period-amplitude-[Fe/H] relation derived by Alcock et al. This yields mean metallicities of <[Fe/H]>_{ESO294} = -1.77 +/- 0.03 and <[Fe/H]>_{ESO410} = -1.64+/- 0.03. The RRL metallicity distribution functions (MDFs) are investigated further via simple chemical evolution models; these reveal the relics of the early chemical enrichment processes for these two dTrans galaxies. In the case of both galaxies, the shapes of the RRL MDFs are well-described by pre-enrichment models. This suggests two possible channels for the early chemical evolution for these Sculptor group dTrans galaxies: 1) The ancient stellar populations of our target dwarf galaxies might have formed from the star forming gas which was already enriched through "prompt initial enrichment" or an "initial nucleosynthetic spike" from the very first massive stars, or 2) this pre-enrichment state might have been achieved by the end products from more evolved systems of their nearest neighbor, NGC 55.

북한 우라늄 농축 시설은 국내외적으로 심각한 위협중 하나이다. 특히 우리나라 입장에서는 국가 안보에 관련된 사안이므로 항상 주시하고 대비를 하여야 한다. 북한 미신고 우라늄 농축시설 탐지 가능성을 평가하기 위해 시설로 부터 장 단거리에 따른 공기중 우라늄 농도를 예측하였다. 북한 농축시설에 대해 국제 사회에 알려진 정보와 다른 국가의 농축 시설 운영 데이터를 근거로 북한 시설로부터 공기중으로 누출되는 $UF_6$ 선원항(source terms)을 계산하였다. 계산된 선원항과 영변 주변 기상 자료를 바탕으로 장 단거리 대기 확산 모델 - Gaussian Plume and HYSPLIT Models -을 이용하여 북한 농축시설 주변과 멀리 떨어진 남한 지역에서의 공기중 우라늄 농도를 결정하였다. 최대 공기중 우라늄 농도와 위치는 기상 조건과 방출 높이에 따라 시설 바로 근처와 0.4 km 이내 이고, 농도 약 $1.0{\times}10^{-7}g{\cdot}m^{-3}$로 나타났다. 본 논문의 가정을 적용하였을 때, 수 십 ${\mu}g$ 정도의 우라늄 샘플을 채취할 수 있을 것으로 나타났다. 이 수십 ${\mu}g$ 우라늄 양은 현대 측정 장비로 어려움 없이 측정 가능한 양이다. 반면에 영변 농축시설에부터 수 백 km이상 떨어진 남한 지역의 농도는 $1.0{\times}10^{-13}{\sim}1.0{\times}10^{-15}g{\cdot}m^{-3}$이하로 자연 방사성 우라늄 농도보다 낮은 값이다. 따라서 본 논문에 의하면 북한 영변 농축시설 주변에서 공기포집에 의한 신고 및 미신고 핵활동 탐지는 가능하지만 장거리에서는 불가능할 것으로 예측된다.

본 논문은 적은 농도로 존재하는 Vibrio parahaemolyticus를 6시간이내에 10⁶ CFU/mL까지 신속하게 배양가능한 배지인 Rapid Enrichment Broth for V. parahaemolyticus(REB-V)를 개발하여 V. parahaemolyticus를 신속하게 검출할 수 있도록 하였다. Modified Gompertz model과 RSM를 활용하여 V. parahaemolyticus를 신속하게 증균할 수 있도록 첨가 성분을 최적화하였다. 그 결과 2%(w/v) NaCl BPW에 D-(+)-mannose 0.3 g/L, L-valine 0.2 g/L, magnesium sulfate 0.2 g/L를 첨가하였을 때 V. parahaemolyticus의 증균량이 최대였다. REB-V의 배양조건을 pH 7.84와 37℃으로 최적화하였으며, 2%(w/v) NaCl BPW와 비교하여 REB-V의 증균 효율을 확인하기 위해 7시간 증균을 통해 증균량을 평가하였다. 또한 매시간마다 배양액에서 DNA를 추출하였고, 추출한 DNA로 real-time PCR을 수행하여 REB-V의 분자진단법 적용가능성을 확인하였다. 그 결과 7시간 동안 2%(w/v) NaCl BPW에서 V. parahaemolyticus는 5.452±0.151 Log CFU/mL까지 증균되었고, REB-V에서는 7.831±0.323 Log CFU/mL의 V. parahaemolyticus가 증균되었다. 최종적으로 REB-V에서 6시간 이내에 10⁶ CFU/mL 이상으로 증균된 것을 확인하였고, REB-V의 증균속도가 2%(w/v) NaCl BPW보다 빠르고 같은 시간 내의 증균량이 2%(w/v) NaCl BPW보다 많았음을 통해 REB-V의 증균효율이 우수한 것으로 확인되었다.

A new column-switching high performance liquid chromatographic method was developed for the determination of lonazolac in plasma. This method was based on the on-line trace enrichment of lonazolac using a precolumn packed with Amberlite XAD-2. The analysis was complete in 20 min. between injections and the limit of detection was $0.1{\mu}g/ml$ using $100{\mu}l$ of plasma. The method was linear in range of $0.1-10{\mu}g/ml$ with a correlation coefficient of 0.9991. Absolute recovery of lonazolac from the spiked plasma samples ranged from 95.6% to 97.1%. The method was shown to be reproducible over the concentration range studied.
