  • The objective of this study was to investigate the treatment efficiency, kinetics, and morphological characteristics of biofilm in upflow $Biobead^{(R)}$ process, a kind of biological aerated filter(BAF). The $Biobead^{(R)}$ system showed high removal rates of $COD_{Mn}$(76~83%), $BOD_5$(67~88%) and SS(71~91%) for food wastewater with high salt concentration ($>4,000mg/{\ell}$) under short reaction times(2~3hrs). Even at aerobic condition, the system had high treatment efficiency for both T-N (51~63%) and T-P(62~81%). The removal kinetics of $COD_{Mn}$, $BOD_5$, T-N, T-P, and $Cl^-$ in the $Biobead^{(R)}$ system showed a plug-flow pattern with reaction rate constants($hr^{-1}$) of 0.58, 0.63, 0,30, 0.48, and 0.38 respectively. A backwashing process to remove excess biomass and filtered solids was needed at least once during 22-hour operation at $0.5kg\;BOD\;m^{-3}{\cdot}d^{-1}$ loading. At the higher loading($1.0kg\;BOD\;m^{-3}{\cdot}d^{-1}$) the backwashing interval was shorten by 8 hours. The COD, BOD, T-N, and T-P were removed from 43 to 66% only by aerobic biodegradation. The SS was removed over 70% by the filtering of $Biobead^{(R)}$ media in the treatment system. The first one of three serial Biobead reactors showed the highest removal values for $COD_{\alpha}$(52.3%), $COD_{Mn}$(38.8%), BOD(62.5%), and T-N(40.0%). The SS and T-P had the highest removal values(47.5% and 29.2%) at the second one of the serial reactors. The biofilm had non-homogeneous spatial distribution and the colonies were embedded in the sunk area of the Biobead. The thickness of the biofilm was very thin ($5.0{\sim}29.4{\mu}m$) compared to the biofilm thickness($200{\sim}300{\mu}m$) used in other BAF systems.

  • This study was done to verify validity of nursing diagnoses related to difficulty in respiratory function. First, content validity was examined by an expert group considering the etiology and the signs / symptoms of three nursing diagnoses - ineffective airway clearance, ineffective breathing pattern, impaired gas exchange. Second, clinical validity was examined by comparing the frequencies of the etiologies and signs / symptoms of the three nursing diagnoses in clinical case studies with the results of the content validity. This study was a descriptive study. The sample consisted of 23 experts (professors, head nurses and clinical instructors) who had had a variety of experiences using nursing diagnoses in clinical practice, and 102 case reports done by senior student nurses of the college of nursing of Y-university. These reports were part of their clinical practice in the ICU. The instrument used for this study was a checklist for etiologies and signs and symptoms based on the literature, Doenges and Moorhouse (1988), Kim, McFarland, McLane (1991), Lee Won Hee et al. (1987), Kim Cho Ja et at. (1988). The data was collected over four month period from May 1992 to Aug. 1992. Data were analyzed using frequencies done with the SPSS / PC+ package. The results of this study are summarized as follows : 1. General Characteristics of the Expert Group A bachelor degree was held by 43.5% and a master or doctoral degree by 56.5% of the expert group. The average age of the expert group was 35.3 years. Their average clinical experience was 9.3 years and their average experience in clinical practice was 5.9 years. The general characteristics of the patients showed that there were more women than men, that the age range was from 1 to over 80. Most of their medical diagnoses were diagnoses related to the respiratory. system, circulation or neurologic system, and 50% or more of them had a ventilator with intubation or a tracheostomy. The number of cases for each nursing diagnoses was : · Ineffective airway clearance, 92 cases. · Ineffective breathing pattern, 18 cases. · Impaired gas exchange, 22 cases. 2. The opinion of the expert group as to the classification of the etiology, and signs and symptoms of the three nursing diagnoses was as follows : · In 31.8% of the cases the classification of etiology was clear. · In 22.7%, the classification of signs and symptoms was clear. · In 17.4%, the classification of nursing interventions was clear. 3. In the expert group 80% or mere agreed to ‘dysp-nea’as a common sign and symptom of the three nursing diagnoses. The distinguishing signs and symptoms of (Ineffective airway clearance) were ‘sputum’, ‘cough’, ‘abnormal respiratory sounds : rales’. The distinguishing sings and symptoms of (Ineffective breathing pattern) were ‘tachypnea’, ‘use of accessory muscle of respiration’, ‘orthopnea’ and for (Impaired gas exchange) it was ‘abnormal arterial blood gas’, 4. The distribution of etiology, and signs and symptoms of the three nursing diagnoses was as follows : · There was a high frequency of ‘increased secretion from the bronchus and trachea’ in both the expert group and the case reports as the etiology of ineffective airway clearance. · For the etiologies for ineffective breathing pat-tern, ‘rain’, ‘anxiety’, ‘fear’, ‘obstructions of the tract, ca and bronchus’ had a high ratio in the ex-pert group and ‘decreased expansion of lung’ in the case reports. · For the etiologies for impaired gas exchanges, ‘altered oxygen -carrying capacity of the blood’ and ‘excess accumulation of interstitial fluid in lung’ had a high ratio in the expert group and ‘altered oxygen supply’ in the case reports. · For signs and symptoms for ineffective airway clearance, ‘dyspnea’, ‘altered amount and character of sputum’ were included by 100% of the expert group. ‘Abnormal respiratory. sound(rate, rhonchi)’ were included by a high ratio of the expert group. · For the signs and symptoms for ineffective breathing pattern. ‘dyspnea’, ‘shortness of breath’ were included by 100% of the expert group. In the case reports, ‘dyspnea’ and ‘tachypnea’ were reported as signs and symptoms. · For the sign and symptoms for impaired gas exchange, ‘hypoxia’ and ‘cyanosis’ had a high ratio in the expert group. In the case report, ‘hypercapnia’, ‘hypoxia’ and ‘inability to remove secretions’ were reported as signs and symptoms. In summary, the similarity of the etiologies and signs and symptoms of the three nursing diagnoses related to difficulty in respiratory function makes it difficult to distinguish among them But the clinical validity of three nursing diagnoses was established through this study, and at last one sign and symp-tom was defined for each diagnosis.

  • 본 연구에서는 2011년 중국국민건강영양조사 자료를 이용하여 20 ~ 64세 중국 성인이 섭취한 점심식사의 질을 가정식, 급식, 외식으로 구분하여 분석하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 총 대상자 3,708명 중 76.7%가 가정에서 점심식사를 하고 있었으며, 급식은 15.6%, 외식은 7.7%에 해당하였다. 가정식군은 여성이 남성보다 많았으나, 급식군과 외식군은 남성이 여성보다 많았다. 가정식군은 농촌 거주자가, 급식군과 외식군은 도시 거주자가 더 많았다. 둘째, 식품군별 섭취량을 분석한 결과, 곡류·서류·콩류와 생선류는 세 군 모두 권장섭취량 범위에 있었으나, 육류 섭취량은 세 군 모두 과다하였다. 특히 급식군과 외식군의 경우 권장섭취량의 2배 이상 섭취하고 있었다. 가정식군과 급식군의 채소류 섭취량은 권장섭취량 범위 내에 있었지만, 외식군은 20 g 이상 부족하였다. 과일류와 우유 및 유제품류 섭취량은 세 군 모두에서 매우 부족한 것으로 나타났다. 셋째, 다빈도 섭취 식품을 분석한 결과 전체적으로 섭취빈도가 가장 높은 식품은 쌀과 돼지고기였고, 가장 많이 섭취한 채소는 청경채와 배추였다. 외식군은 가정식군과 급식군에 비해 채소류로 섭취한 식품의 종류가 적었고 쇠고기의 섭취 빈도가 높았으며, 빵 및 면류 식품의 섭취빈도가 높았다. 넷째, 식품군 섭취패턴을 분석한 결과, '곡류+ 육류+ 채소류' 패턴이 55.5%로 가장 많았다. '곡류+ 육류+ 채소류' 패턴은 급식군에서 그 비율이 가장 높았고, 외식군에서 상대적으로 낮았다. 가정식군에서는 '곡류+ 채소류' 패턴이, 외식군에서는 '곡류+ 육류' 패턴의 비율이 상대적으로 높았다. 다섯째, 전체적으로 식품군점수는 5점 만점에 평균 2.4점, 식품섭취 가짓수는 평균 3.4개로 섭취한 식품의 다양성이 부족한 것으로 나타나 개선의 필요가 있었다. 급식군의 식품군점수와 식품섭취 가짓수가 가정식군이나 외식군보다 유의적으로 높았다. 본 연구결과를 종합해보면, 중국 성인의 점심 식사는 육류 섭취가 과다하며, 과일류와 우유 및 유제품류의 섭취가 매우 부족한 공통적인 문제점이 있었다. 가정식의 경우 식사의 다양성 측면에서 곡류, 육류, 채소류를 모두 섭취할 수 있도록 영양교육이 필요하며, 외식의 경우 육류의 섭취가 지나치게 많고 채소류 섭취가 부족하여 개선의 필요가 있다. 또한 급식은 외식이나 가정식보다 식품 다양성 측면에서 바람직한 것으로 나타났으나, 점심식사의 기본적인 구성요소라고 할 수 있는 곡류, 육류, 채소류를 모두 섭취한 비율이 2/3에도 미치지 못하고 있어 체계적인 급식 프로그램을 도입할 필요가 있다.

  • The objectives of this study were to conduct preliminary research to investigate full course meals in Korean style restaurants in order: i) to analyze the nutrient contents of full course meals per servings, and ii ) by analyzing the above, to examine the amount and the quality of the foods served in the full course meals by two different types of Korean style restaurants. A total of 27 restaurants participated in this study, 7 restaurants from the luxurious hotels in Seoul and 20 restaurants from the City of Changwon. A key finding was that restaurant patrons tended to overconsume nutrients as compared to the Korean Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA), and restaurants generated large amounts of food wastes due to the excess food served. Other findings were as follows: 1) Compared with 1/3 or the Korean RDA, all the nutrients were oversupplied. The average nutrient ratios were about 3.7 times higher than 113 of the Korean RDA in calories, about 9 times higher in proteins, 10 times higher in phosphorus, 7 times higher in Vitamin Bl, and 12 times higher in Vitamin E. 2) Seventy-five percent (n = 20) of the restaurants served within the range of thirty to forty dishes, whereas most of the hotel restaurants (70%) served twenty dishes or fewer. 3) The average carbohydrate: protein: fat (CPF) ratio of caloric nutrients was 40:26 : 34. This study concluded that: i) Korean style full course meals provide too much food, nutrients, and calories, resulting in an over- or unbalanced nutrient intake, and ii ) the Korean style full course meals consisted of a high-protein, high-fat and high-caloric intake, which is similar to a westernized caloric nutrient pattern. Such over -or unbalanced nutrient intake could cause chronic degenerative problems such as cancer and cardiovascular disease. These findings indicate that restaurants serving Korean style full course meals should carefully plan their menus in order to provide their customers with balanced meals. They should also be strongly encouraged to play an active role in improving their customers' nutritional status, as well as reducing the restaurants wastage of food. Lastly, further research should be conducted to improve the quality of the menus in Korean restaurants. (Korean J Community Nutrition 8(3) : 327∼339, 2003)

  • The shortage or surplus of minerals directly affects overall physiological metabolism of plants; especially, it strongly influences carbohydrate metabolism as a primary response. We have studied mineral uptake, synthesis and partitioning of soluble carbohydrates, and the relationship between them in N, P or K-excessive tomato plants, and examined the interaction between soluble carbohydrates and mineral elements. Four-weeks-old tomato plants were grown in a hydroponic growth container adjusted with excessive N ($20.0mmol\;L^{-1}$ $Ca(NO_3)2{\cdot}4H_2O$ and $20.0mmol\;L^{-1}$ $KNO_3$), P ($2.0mmol\;L^{-1}$ $KH_2PO_4$), and K ($20.0mmol\;L^{-1}$ $KNO_3$), respectively, for 30 days. Shoot growth rates were significantly influenced by excessive N or K, but not by excessive P. The concentrations of water soluble N (nitrate and ammonium), P and K were clearly different with each tissue of tomato plants as well as the mineral conditions. The NPK accumulation in all treatments was as follows; fully expanded leaves (48%) > stem (19%) = roots (16%) = petioles (15%) > emerging leaves (1). K-excessive condition extremely contributed to a remarkable increase in the ratio, which ranged from 2.79 to 10.34, and particularly potassium was dominantly accumulated in petioles, stem and roots. Fresh weight-based soluble sugar concentration was the greatest in NPK-sufficient condition ($154.8mg\;g^{-1}$) and followed by K-excessive (141.6), N-excessive (129.2) and P-excessive (127.7); whereas starch was the highest in K-excessive ($167.0mg\;g^{-1}$) and followed by P-excessive (146.1), NPK-sufficient (138.2) and N-excessive (109.7). Soluble sugar showed positive correlation with dry weight-based total N content (p<0.01) whereas was negatively correlated with soluble P (p<0.01) and dry weight-based total P (p<0.01). On the other hand, starch production was negatively influenced by total N (p<0.001), but, it showed positive relation with total K concentration (p<0.05). This study shows that uptake pattern of NPK and production and partitioning of soluble carbohydrate were substantially different from each mineral, and the relationship between water soluble- and dry weight-based-mineral was positive.

  • 습지에서 물의 효과는 토양 속으로 공기의 확산을 방해한다는 것이다. 이로 인해 습지의 토양 속에서는 산화 상태가 환원상태로 바뀌는 생화학적인 과정을 유도하게 된다. 건조토양이 수화된 토양이 될 때 산화환원전위는 낮아지게 된다. 그러므로 산화환원전위를 통해 토양의 소화된 정도를 알 수 있고, 이를 통해 어느 정도 습지의 화학적 특징이 나타날 지를 예견할 수 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 진관내동 생태계 보전지역의 습지 토양 특성을 파악하기 위하여 2003년 5월부터 2004년 3월까지 산화환원 전위를 측정하였다. 깊이별 산화환원전위는 5월 10 cm 깊이에서 가장 높은 200 mV를 보였고 25 cm 깊이에서 가장 낮은 0 mV를 나타내었다. 이후 모든 깊이에서 낮아져 7 월에는 약 -200 mV를 나타내었다. 이는 10월까지 지속되었으며, 이 후 깊이가 낮을수록 산화환원전위의 증가폭이 크게 나타났다. 20 cm 깊이에서 측정한 5군데의 결과는 모두 비슷한 변화 양상을 보여주었다. 즉, 식물의 성장기 동안에는 낮은 값을 유지하다가 비성장기에는 증가하였다. 이러한 결과로부터 진관내동 생태계 보전지역의 토양은 환원된 상태의 습지 토양 특성을 잘 나타내고 있으며, 메탄화과정이 일어나고 있음을 알 수 있다.

  • It has been widely said in Korea that early administrations of Cervi cornu parvum (deer antler) to febrile infants affect brain functions. Traditional Oriental Medicine states that the head is easily affected by fever and only an excess of heat causes headaches. Traditional Oriental Medicine also states that Cervi cornu parvum cannot be used in febrile conditions. With the aim of investigating different febrile response to LPS, experiments using intravenous injection of LPS have been carried out on Cervi comu parvum(CCP) and Soahbohyul - tang combined with Cervi comu parvum(SB-CCP) administered rabbits. Experiments were also conducted to evaluate the effects of early administration of CCP on learning and memory in 3 week old rats with LPS fever. These were evaluated by using the Morris water maze and the radial arm maze. Changes in body weight were also observed during this period. The results of these experiments are as follows. 1. In the experiments with febrile rabbits, the CCP and SB-CCP administered group showed statistically significant reductions of fever (p<0.05). 2. In the experiments with febrile rabbits, CCP and SB-CCP administered rabbits resulted in the tendency of lower body temperatures and shorter fever periods than the control group. 3. There were no differences of mean body weight and fever patterns among the 4 groups in the experiments on young rats with LPS fever. 4. There was no statistical difference of mean response latencies among the rats in Group I (DDW administered), GroupIII (CCP administered), and groupIV (SB-CCP administered) in the Morris water maze. However, Group Ⅱ (the scopolamine administered group) showed delayed latencies on the second day of the first session (p<0.05), and the second and third day of the second session (p< 0.05). 5. There were no statistical differences of mean response latencies among the rats in Group I, III and Ⅳ in the radial arm maze, but Group Ⅱ showed delayed latencies on the first and third day of the first session (p<0.05). 6. There was no influence from the administration of CCP and SB-CCP on the general behavior of the rats in Irwin´s test. These results suggest that Cervi cornu parvum and Soahbohyul - tang combined with Cervi comu parvum have anti-pyretic actions on LPS fever. The results also suggest that these drugs have no influence on learning and memory in young rats with LPS fever in the Morris water maze and the radial arm maze.

  • 비만은 체내에 지방조직이 과다한 상태에 이르는 것으로, 최근 세계적으로 문제가 되고 있는 질병 중 하나이다. 이러한 비만은 각종 성인병과 함께 고혈압, 당뇨 등의 합병증을 유발하며, 심리적, 정신적으로 위축시켜 우울증 등의 정신 질환까지 갖게 하는 심각한 사회적 문제이다. 현재 일반적인 비만 관리 방법은 다양한 관점에서 각기 다른 효능으로 비만 환자들의 욕구를 채워주고 있지만, 수술 치료의 실패, 치료 중 약물 중독, 우울증, 많은 시간 및 경제적 투자 등으로 근본적인 비만의 치료 효율이 낮다. 이에 체계적이며 개인의 비만 상태에 따른 유형별 치료 접근법의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 비수술적인 비만 치료의 단점을 보완하여, 개인의 비만 유형별 비만 치료를 선택할 수 있는 복합 비만 관리 시스템을 제안하였다. 이를 위하여 원적외선 치료, 산소 치료, 색 치료, 극초단파 치료 모듈을 이용하여 복합적이며, 시너지 효과를 기대할 수 있는 새로운 형태의 시스템을 개발하였다. 또한, 환자의 신체적 조건과 비만의 정도에 따른 맞춤 치료를 위해 치료 및 관리 소프트웨어를 개발하였으며, 부분별로 원하는 부위를 집중적으로 치료가 가능한 자동 슬라이딩 시스템을 개발하였다. 본 연구에서 제시된 통합 치료가 가능한 비만 관리 시스템은 다양한 치료 프로토콜을 제시함으로 고기능성 비만 치료기 개발에 초석이 될 것으로 사료된다.
