  • 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.

  • 저선량 방사선 조사가 묵은 고추종자의 발아율과 발아종자의 생리활성에 미치는 효과 등을 알아보고자 4년 저장한 조광고추와 3년 저장한 홍광고추 종자에 저선량 ${\gamma}$선을 $2{\sim}50Gy$ 까지 조사하여 관찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 저선량 조사한 고추종자의 발아율은 대조구보다 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 특히 발아초기에 그 효과가 뚜렷하게 나타나 파종 7일 후에 조광고추 품종은 4Gy 조사구에서 74%, 홍광고추 품종은 8 Gy 조사구에서 11% 증가하였다. 고추의 유묘초장에서도 거의 모든 저선량 조사구에서 증가하였는데 특히 조광고추 품종은 4 Gy 조사구에서, 홍광고추 품종은 8 Gy 조사구에서 유의성있는 증가효과를 보였다. 저선량 조사한 종자의 단백질 함량은 조광고추 풀종은 발아후기에, 홍광고추 품종은 발아초기에 증가하였고, catalase와 peroxidase 활성은 조광고추 품종은 4 Gy 조사구에서, 홍광고추 품종은 8 Gy 조사구에서 높은 값을 보였다. 이에 저선량 ${\gamma}$선 조사에 의해 묵은 종자의 발아와 생리활성이 촉진됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • This study investigated the effect of low dose ${\gamma}$-irradiation on the damage of the cell envelopes and antibiotic sensitivity profiles of Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella Typhimurium. The bacteria suspension in tryptic soy broth was exposed to the ${\gamma}$-irradiation doses of 0, 1, 1.5, 3, and 5 kGy, and then stored at $0^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. A viability test, an antimicrobial sensitivity profile, and an electron microscopy were performed to observe the effects due to ${\gamma}$-irradiation treatment. B. cereus could survive the ${\gamma}$-irradiation up to 5 kGy while E. coli and S. Typhimurium were all deactivated at 1.5 kGy and 5 kGy, respectively. At 5 kGy, the cell count of B. cereus was significantly reduced, and the survived bacteria cells retained their important features. There were no significant changes observed in the antimicrobial sensitivity profile (p>0.05) for the recovered bacteria after irradiation treatment. Low dose ${\gamma}$-irradiation below 3 kGy was found to be insufficient to achieve decontamination of B. cereus and S. Typhimurium. Cell envelope damage and deactivation of different bacteria did not occur in the same manner; thus, deferent doses of ${\gamma}$-irradiation may be required for deactivation of different bacteria.

  • The effects of gamma irradiation on taste compounds of low salted and fermented squid were investig ated. Salted and fermented squid products were prepared with salt concentrations of 5%, 10%, and 20% and was fermented at 15oC and 25oC after gamma irradiation with a dosage of 2.5~10 kGy. Amino nitrogen (AN), volatile basic nitrogen(VBN), trimethylamine(TMA), and hypoxanthine(Hx) contents were examined during the fermentation periods. Results showed that gamma irradiation had no effect on the initial con tents of AN, VBN, TMA, and Hx compared with non irradiated salted and fermented squid. During the fermentation periods, these contents rapidly increased in accordance with the decrease in NaCl concen tration and irradiation dose, and the increase in fermentation temperature. Specifically, the taste compounds of salted and fermented squid prepared with a NaCl concentration of 10% and an irradiation dose of 10 kGy maintained the appropriate level for the fermentation period at 15oC.

  • 저선량 방사선 조사한 고추 2품종, 조광고추와 조흥고추의 종자 발아율과 초기생육 및 고추 유식물체의 후속 고선량에 대한 내성 변화를 알아보고자 저선량 0, 4, 8, 20, 50 Gy를 조사하여 재배한 고추 유식물체에 ${\gamma}$선 50 Gy와 100 Gy를 조사한 후 생육상황을 관찰하였다. 저선량 조사한 고추 유식물체의 초기생육 촉진과 후속고선량 내성은 품종에 따라 달랐는데, 조광고추보다 조홍고추 품종에서 뚜렷한 증가효과를 나타냈고 발아율과 초기생육촉진은 4, 8, 20 Gy 조사구에서 효과적이었다. 조홍고추 유식물체의 후속고선량에 대한 내성은 사전 저선량 조사에 의해 크게 증가되었는데 특히 4Gy조사구에서 효과가 가장 뚜렷하였으며 후속고선량에 대해 내성이 증진된 고추 유식물체중의 carotenoid와 단백질 함량 및 CAT활성은 4 Gy와 8 Gy 조사구에서 높았다.

  • 본 연구에서는 고분자 수지의 가교율 향상을 위하여 가교제를 첨가한 low density polyethylene (LDPE), linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) 수지의 가교에 있어서 ${\gamma}$-선 조사의 효과를 조사하였다. LDPE와 LLDPE 시편들은 가교제와 혼합하여 13$0^{\circ}C$의 hot-press mold에서 sheet 형태의 준비하였다. ${\gamma}$-선은 질소분위기에서 50부터 150 kGy로 변화시키며 조사하였다. 이렇게 준비된 시편을 이용하여 방사선 조사선량, 가교제의 종류에 따른 가교율의 변화를 조사하였으며 가교에 따른 기계적 특성, 열안정성과 결정차도의 변화도 평가하였다. 그 견과 방사선 조사선량이 크고, 가교제가 첨가되면 가교율은 상승하였다. 그것과 비례하여 물리적 성질과 열적인 성질도 개선되었다. 그리고 방사선 조사에 의해서 순수한 수지의 겔화율이 증가하면 결정화도는 감소하였다.

  • Actin and myosin solutions and fresh ground pork were irradiated with the electron beam (e-beam) at a dose of 0, 1.5, 3.0, 5.0 and 10 kGy. The changes in SDS-PAGE pattern of 2 proteins and the salt-soluble proteins extracted from ground pork after e-beam irradiation were monitored. When the myosin solution was irradiated with e-beam, myosin was degraded completely. Complete myosin degradations were observed even with the lowest dose (1.5 kGy) of e-beam treatment. Actin was degraded with the irradiation, but to a less extent than myosin was. The degradation of actin increased as the e-beam treatment increased from 1.5 to 10.0 kGy. Among the salt-soluble proteins extracted from ground pork, myosin was degraded gradually when the e-beam dose increased from 1.5 up to 10.0 kGy. Similar gradual increase in the degradation of actin also occurred with the increase of irradiation. Increases of 2 low molecular weight compounds (<29 kDa) were observed when the irradiation dose increased from 1.5 to 10.0 kGy. These 2 molecules are thought to be the breakdown products produced from the degradation of major salt-soluble proteins, myosin and actin. The salt-soluble protein content of ground pork did not change with the e-beam irradiation.

  • In this paper, It is studied that the variation of the dielectric absorption of the specimen according to the change with $^{60}$ Co-${\gamma}$ ray irradiation dose of the influence of temperature and applied voltage. In order to investigate the effect of irradiated oriented polypropylene film, we have observed dielectric properties within the temporature range of 30~130 ($^{\circ}C$) and voltage range of 100~250 (V). As for the dependency of temperature by tan $\delta$, the $\alpha$ peak which appears at high temperature increases accordingly to the increment of irradiation dose which is contributed by the crystal region and moves towards the high temperature. The $\beta$ peak which appears the orientation by dipoles and molecular motions in the amorphous region at low temperature. For the dependency of voltage by tan $\delta$ at low temperature, the peak of the tan $\delta$ shifts accordingly to the increment of irradiation dose towards the high temperature region.

  • In this paper the change of electrical properties of transformer oil due to electron beam irradiation is investigated. The specimens are produced with a some different dose of 0.5[Mrad], 1[Mrad] and 2[Mard] except for original specimen. The physical properties of each specimen is analyzed by using the FT-IR spectrum. So it is confirmed that carbonyl groups are increased according to the increase of electron beam dose and also that the nitric compounds are disappeared. The magnitude of dielectric dissipation factor appears maximum value by the contribution of dipoles and ions in the low temperature low voltage region and it is stable due to the saturation of carriers in the high temperature high voltage region in the electric conduction characteristics. Volume resistivity is also measured one of original specimen is larger than irradiated specimen.
