  • 공기중방사성요드 농도로부터 체내피폭선량을 간편하게 평가할 수 있는 전산프로그램 TCMI(Three-Compartment Model for iodine)를 개발하였다. 이 프로그램은 국제방사선방어위원회 권고 54(ICRP Publ. 54)의 3격실모델 및 호흡기모델에 따라 작업시간과 작업장의 공기중 방사성요드 농도로부터 갑상선부하량, 선량당량, 예탁선량당량 및 뇨를 통한 배출율을 시간의 함수로 평가한다. TCMI 코드를 이용함으로써 급성, 만성 및 급만성 등 구체적 피폭형태에 따른 갑상선부 하량과 선량당량 그리고 뇨를 통한 배출율을 평가하여 체내피폭평가의 적용성을 검토하였다. 또한 공기중 I-131 농도와 작업시간에 따른 갑상선부하량과 피폭선량을 간편하게 평가할 수 있는 식과 표를 제시하였다.

  • The radioactivity concentration of environmental radionuclides was analyzed for soil and sand at eight locations within a radius of 255 m centered on the Dongnam Institute of Radiological & Medical Science (DIRAMS), Korea. The average activity concentrations of 40K, 137Cs, 226Ra, and 232Th were 661.1 Bq/kg-dry, 0.9 Bq/kg-dry, 21.9 Bq/kg-dry, and 11.1 Bq/kg-dry, respectively. The activity of 40K and 137Cs was lower than the 3-year (2017-2019) average reported by the Korea Institute of Nuclear Safety, respectively. Due to the nature of granite-rich soil, the radioactivity of 40K was 0.6-fold higher than in other countries, while 137Cs was in the normal fluctuation range (15-30 Bq/kg-dry) of the concentration of radioactive fallout from nuclear tests. The activity of 226Ra and 232Th was lower than in Korean soils reported by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR). The average activity concentrations of 232Th and 40K for the soil and sand samples from DIRAMS were within the range specified by UNSCEAR in 2000. The radium equivalent activity and internal and external hazard index values were below the recommended limits (1 mSv/y). These radionuclide concentration (226Ra, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs) data can be used for regional environmental monitoring and ecological impact assessments of nuclear power plant accidents.

  • Flue-cured tobacco leaves, produced in Korea and in the USA in 1980, were analyzed for their sugar contents. Regardless of tobacco varieties or production localities, glucose was the most abundant and sucrose the lowest among free sugars. In terms of total sugar, USA-produced leaves contained the highest concentration in the grade of $C_3F$ (equivalent to the $L_3$ grade in Korean standard) , but Korea produced ones in the grades of the $H_1\;and\;L_1$, (equivalent to the $B_1F\;and\;C_1F$ grades, respectively, in the USA standard) . Otherwise, we could not find any significant differences in sugar contents between American and Korean tobacco leaves.

  • The objective of the present study was to develop an equivalent circuit model of glucose kinetics including the hepatic glucose balance functions which were neglected in the previous compartmental models. Using this circuit model, the insulin resistivity parameter and hepatic glucose sensitivity parameter were estimated in optimal fitting of the model based data of glucose and insulin concentration to the reported clinical intravenous glucose tolerance test(IVGTT) data in normal and diabetic subjects. The addition of the hepatic function in the model has improved the overall performance of the simulation. Also, the computed tissue insulin resistivity and the hepatic glucose sensitivity are shown to be significant in distinguishin four clinical groups of normal and diabetic groups.

  • The passive open-path Fourier-Transform-Infrared system was implemented for the toxic gas monitoring. Noise Equivalent Differential Temperature(NEDT) was investigated as a system performance evaluation figure and analyzed numerically with the designed parameters. Calculated NEDT was compared with the experimental value in the wavelength region of $700{\sim}1400cm^{-1}^$. The minimum detectable gas concentration was estimated from the obtained NEDT at the absorption wavelength of $SF_6$.

  • The safety block which prevents drop of laborers at high altitude was analyzed by finite element method. Elastic analysis was done by Ansys ver. 11.0. and tetrahedral meshing was used. As load applied more vertically at the fixed face of saw tooth, the stress concentration became smaller and the load distributed broader. When load worked at saw tooth and the shape was more straight to the direction of load, most stresses except principal stress became smaller. When the area of the load increased, principal stress and equivalent stress could be decreased simultaneously. A principal stress and other various stresses occurred in 3D shape, therefore revised model which has smaller equivalent stress than other models shows excellence on the stability and the credibility.

  • Total phenol, total flavonoid, reducing powder, electron donating activity, ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacity, antimicrobial and antiproliferative activities of olive leaf extracts were investigated. The contents of total phenol and flavonoid were 257.48 and 92.33 mg in 100 g of olive leaf extract, respectively. The reducing power of the olive leaf extract increased with concentration increasing. Electron donating activity was high in 100 ${\mu}g/mL$ treated olive leaf extract as 95.20%. The ascorbic acid equivalent antioxidant capacity of the olive leaf extract was 68.93 mg/g olive leaf extract. The olive leaf extracts showed relatively high antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. All of the cancer cell lines including MKN45, HCT116, NCI-H460, and MCF7 have 70-81% as effective growth inhibition.

  • The influences of the ozone oxidation, reaction temperature and NaOH equivalent ratio on the iron oxide formation were studied with fixed ferrous sulfate concentration(0.5M $FeSO_4$$7H_2$O). Geothite($\alpha$-FeOOH) and/or Magnetite ($Fe_3$$O_4$) were synthesized depending on the reaction conditions. The characteristics of the synthesized powders were evaluated by XRD, SEM and quantitative phase analysis. The synthetic conditions to get Goethite were quite different from the results of Kiyama's and the Goethite was conveniently synthesized at low temperature and at low NaOH equivalent ratio.

  • Background: Compared with reported data of radon concentration, data of radon progeny concentration is limited in general, especially in outdoor environment. Materials and Methods: To know both the level and the variation of radon progeny concentration in outdoor environment in Beijing area, one-year continuous measurement with a cycle of 60 minutes was carried out by a step-advanced filter (SAF) monitor for radon progeny measurement. The observation site was located in a park in Eastern Beijing area, and the observation period was from October 17, 2018 to September 29, 2019. Results and Discussion: The equivalent equilibrium concentration (EEC) of radon progeny varies from 0.7 to 19.1 Bq·m-3, with an annual average of 4.9 ± 2.7 Bq·m-3. A clear diurnal variation of EEC, higher in the early morning and lower in the late afternoon, is observed due to the high sensitivity of the SAF monitor. Conclusion: Vertical convection of atmospheric boundary layer is thought to be the main reason of this phenomenon. For annual variation, the lowest monthly average EEC appeared in April, while the highest appeared in November, which might attribute to the atmospheric stability in different seasons.

  • 붕산수를 중성자 조사하였을 때 발생하는 화학특성 변화를 측정하였다. 붕산 용액의 pH는 조사시간과 붕산농도가 증가할수록 감소하였다. 물의 방사분해물인 과산화수소는 붕산농도에 비례하였고 조사시간에는 반비례하였다. 기체 방사분해물인 수소와 산소기체는 당량비로 생성되었다. $^{10}B(n{\cdot}{\alpha})^7Li$ 핵반응으로 생성된 Li과 조사시간과의 상관관계는 낮은 붕산 농도범위에서는 좋지 않았으나 높은 농도범위에서는 비례성이 다소 좋아지는 현상을 발견하였다.
