Lignin is one of the natural macromolecules. Every year large amount of lignin arises from the cellulose production as a by-product worldwide. The use of lignin as a precursor to carbonaceous materials has gained interest due to its low cost and high availability. Therefore, we improved the properties of alkali-lignin by exposing to gamma ray in this study. The alkali-lignin is irradiated by Gamma ray irradiation with varying doses. The char yields of alkali-lignin were investigated by increasing up to 50 kGy. The cross-linking and bond scission of alkali-lignin occur simultaneously during gamma ray irradiation. The crosslinking was predominantly accelerated by gamma ray irradiation up to 50 kGy. Bond scission predominantly occurs between 50 and 500 kGy. ESCA analysis indicated that the alcoholic carbon increase up to 50 kGy. Solution viscosity was increased as absorbed dose increased up to 20 kGy. In addition, the aromatic ring was not influenced by irradiation at doses ranging from 20 to 500 kGy as shown in FT-IR results.

본 논문은 감마선 방사선 선량을 측정하기 위하여 상용 반도체를 응용하기 위한 실험적 연구에 대하여 다루었다. 실리콘 포토 다이오드는 값이 싸고 작으며 높은 효율과 견고하여 광검출기로 잘 이용되기 때문에 감마선과 같은 방사선 측정에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. 대부분의 PN 포토 다이오드는 이 증가함에 따라 역 방향 전류의 증가하는 특성을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 이 소자들의 공핍층이 역 방향 전류에 영향을 주므로 이 공핍층의 면적이 큰 PIN 포토 다이오드를 선택하였다. 이 연구에서는 방사선량을 검출하고 감마선 선량계를 개발하는데 적용하기 위하여, PIN 다이오드에 대해 몇 가지 실험이 수행되었다. NEC사의 PH 302와 SIEMENS사의 BPW 34와 같은 2가지 종류의 포토 다이오드를 반도체 분석장치를 사용하여 $\gamma$선 방사선원인 Co-60의 저준위 시설에서 시험하였다. 그 결과, 방사선 선량률과 다이오드의 전류 사이에 양호한 선형적 함수 관계가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, 이들 실리콘 PIN 포토 다이오드들은 $\gamma$선 선량계를 설계하는데 적합하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

목 적: 세기변조방사선치료 시 선행되는 품질관리에서 선량분포와 절대선량 값을 비교하여 2차원 이온전리함의 유용성을 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 본 실험은 선형가속기(CL 21EX, Varian, Palo Alto, USA)의 6 MV 광자선을 이용하여 비인두암 환자를 대상으로 하였다. 세기변조방사선치료를 위한 품질관리에는 2차원 이온전리함 배열(MatriXX, Wellhofer Dosimetrie, Germany)을 사용하였다. 비인두암 환자의 치료를 위해 역방향치료계획을 시행하였다. 고체팬톰에 삽입된 MatriXX를 전산화단층 촬영하여 환자 치료계획과 동일한 플루언스로 하이브리드(갠트리 각도 0$^\circ$) 치료계획을 실시하였다. 실험적 선량분포의 측정은 하이브리드 치료계획과 동일한 기하학적 조건으로 MatriXX와 고체팬톰을 이용하여 측정하였다. 선량분포에서 고선량 저변위(High Dose Low Gradient: HDLG) 점을 선정하여 절대선량을 비교하였으며, 선량분포 일치성분석을 위해 감마 인덱스 히스토그람($\gamma$-index, Dose difference: 3%, Distance to agreement: 3 mm)을 이용하여 정량화하였다. 결 과: 감마 인덱스 히스토그람 분석결과 인정허용범위(${\gamma}{\leq}$1) 비율을 모든 조사면에서 각각 확인하였다. 갠트리 각도 0$^\circ$에서 95.08%, 55$^\circ$에서 97.52%, 110$^\circ$에서 96.28%, 140$^\circ$에서 98.2%, 220$^\circ$에서 97.78%, 250$^\circ$에서 96.64%, 305$^\circ$에서 92.7%로 나타났다. HDLG에서 절대선량은 $\pm$3% 이내의 일치도를 보였다. 결 론: MatriXX를 이용한 세기변조방사선치료의 품질관리는 필름이나 단일 이온전리함을 이용한 일반적인 세기변조방사선치료 품질관리에 비해 시간, 인력을 최소화하면서 보다 효율적인 접근이 가능하였으며, 선량분포일치성 분석 및 절대선량확인에 매우 유용한 장치임을 알 수 있었다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of Angelica gigas on jejunal survival, endogenous spleen colony formation and jejunal crypt cells of mice irradiated with Gamma-ray irradiation. The subject of this study includes 42 mice which were divided into each 7 groups. Angelica gigas experiment groups were Angelica gigas + Gamma-ray(10Gy), Angelica gigas + Gamma-ray(3Gy), Angelica gigas. Gamma-ray(1 Gy), Gamma-ray control (10Gy), Gamma-ray control(3Gy), Gamma-ray control(1Gy), Normal groups. In the present study to evaluate the effect of Angelica gigas on jejunal crypt survival, endogenous spleen colony formation, and apoptosis in jejunal crypt cells of mice Gamma-ray with each dose of Gamma-ray irradiation. The results of this study were as follows: In low-dose(1Gy) Gamma-ray radiation were treatment of Angelica gigas showed significantly increased(p<0.05) on the cell death apoptosis in crypt, intestine crypts survival of intestine after gamma-ray irradiation. High-dose(10Gy) Gamma-ray, treatment of Angelica gigas showed significantly increased(p<0.05) on the leukocyte. The above results suggest that Angelica gigas were immunostimulating effectively reduced Gamma-ray irradiation.

To reveal the relationship between the changes in the growth and photo- synthesis induced by low dose radiation, red pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) plants were serially irradiated three times with gamma rays of 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 Gy. The plant growth was monitored by the fresh weight, the stem length, and the leaf length & width. All the irradiation groups (0.5-4 Gy) were stimulated in growth at 1 day after the $1^{st}$ irradiation (DA1I), but rather inhibited at 3 days after the $3^{rd}$ irradiation (DA3I). The maximum photochemical efficiency (Fv/Fm), the photochemical quenching (qP), the non-:photochemical quenching (NPQ) and the apparent rate of the photosynthetic electron transport (ETR) were used to represent the changes in the photosynthesis by the serial irradiation. The irradiation groups except 0.5 Gy had higher Fv/Fm values at 3 DA3I than the control one. After the 3$^{rd}$ irradiation, the qP values appeared to be a little lower in the 1-4 Gy groups than in the control and 0.5 Gy ones. In contrast, the NPQ values were rather higher in the irradiation groups except 0.5 Gy. During the whole experimental period, the ETRs decreased in the control group but remained relatively constant in the 4-Gy one. In conclusion, the results obtained indicate that the stimulatory effect of ionizing radiation on the plant growth was determined by the incident dose of the single irradiation rather than by the cumulative one of the serial irradiation. They also demonstrate that the growth stimulation induced by a low dose radiation could not be positively correlated with an alteration in the photosynthesis. Additionally, we discuss in text that an ionizing radiation may partly protect the leaf senescence by delaying the development of the plants.

This study assessed the feasibility of a dual-channel (DC) compound method for film dosimetry. The red channel (RC) is usually used to ensure dosimetric quality using a conventional fraction dose because the RC is more accurate at low doses within 3 Gy than is the green channel (GC). However, the RC is prone to rapid degradation of sensitivity at high doses, while degradation of the GC is slow. In this study, the DC compound method combining the RC and GC was explored as a means of providing accurate film dosimetry for high doses. The DC compound method was evaluated at various dose distributions using EBT3 film inserted in a solid-water phantom. Measurements with $10{\times}20cm^2$ radiation field and $60^{\circ}$ dynamic-wedge were done. Dose distributions acquired using the RC and GC were analyzed with root-mean-squares-error (RMSE) and gamma analyses. The DC compound method was used based on the RC after correcting the GC for high doses in the gamma analysis. The RC and GC produced comparatively more accurate RMSE values for low and high doses, respectively. Gamma passing rates with an acceptance criterion of 3%/3 mm revealed that the RC provided rapid reduction in the high dose region, while the GC displayed a gradual decrease. In the whole dose range, the DC compound method had the highest agreement (93%) compared with single channel method using either the RC (80%) or GC (85%). The findings indicate that the use of DC compound method is more appropriate in dosimetric quality assurance for radiotherapy using high doses.

In this study, it was investigated the antioxidant activity of laminarin degraded by gamma irradiation. Because the activities of antioxidants have been attributed to various mechanisms, different assay methods have been conducted and compared. 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, ferric reducing antioxidant power, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity of degraded laminarin were measured and compared with non-degraded. All of these results showed that the antioxidant activity of laminarin degraded by irradiation was increased depending on the absorbed dose. Therefore, gamma irradiation could be an alternative method for the preparation of degraded laminarin with higher antioxidant activity.

Phytophthora capsici에 의한 고추 역병은 세계적으로 피해가 심할 뿐만 아니라 방제도 매우 어려운 병으로서 효과적인 병 방제를 위해 새로운 시도가 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구는 이러한 취지에서 감마선의 hormesis효과를 이용하고자 시도되었다. 저선량 감마선 조사가 고추의 역병 저항성을 유도하는지 여부를 밝히기 위해 광복과 다복 두 품종을 공시하였다. 저선량 감마선은 두 품종 모두 조사선량에 관계없이 발아율을 크게 제고시켰다. 병 저항성 증대에 관한 분석시 품종간에 차이가 있어 감수성 품종인 다복에서 뚜렷한 증대효과가 확인되었으며, 그 효과는 조사선량에 따라 차이가 있었다. 1,4 Gy조사구가 무조사구에 비해 뚜렷하게 저항성이 증가되었으며 특히 4 Gy조사시 병 저항성이 가장 높게 유도되었다. 이러한 현상은 모든 실험에서 일관된 경향을 나타내었고, 통계 분석시에도 유의차가 인정되었다. 반면에 저항성 품종인 광복에서는 무조사에 비해 감마선 조사에 따른 저항성의 증가를 확인할 수 없었다.
