In this study, we investigated the vertical distribution and vascular plants on Joryeongsan Mountain in Baekdudaegan, Korea. The results of four field surveys from April to September 2023 identified a total of 552 taxa, representing 491 species, ten subspecies, 43 varieties, six forms, and two hybrids in 314 genera and 101 families. The elevational distribution ranges of 360 taxa of vascular plants were also identified. Among them, 19 taxa were endemic to Korea, and two taxa were rare plants. The floristic target plants amounted to 100 taxa, specifically two taxa of grade V, seven taxa of grade IV, 25 taxa of grade III, 33 taxa of grade II, and 33 taxa of grade I. Seventy-eight taxa were northern lineage plants. In all, 29 taxa of alien plants were recorded in the investigated area, with a naturalized index of 5.3% and an urbanization index of 7.4%. Two plants disturbed the ecosystem. Species richness along the elevation showed a reversed doublehump shape with peaks at low, mid, and high elevations. The results of a cluster analysis showed a high degree of similarity between adjacent elevation sections, except in lowlands. Detrended Correspondence Analysis ordination also supported distinct groups by elevation. Warmth index values ranged from 62.1ºC·month to 92.9ºC·month on Joryeongsan Mountain. Our results provide primary data on vascular plants and valuable information on the current distribution ranges of plant species on Joryeongsan Mountain. These data could serve as a baseline for comparing species shifts at elevations under future climate changes.

현재 농촌은 고령화, 여성화로 인해 기계화가 요구되지만 잡곡류 수확기계의 기계화율은 약 20% 수준으로 확인되어진다. 소요노동력의 절감과 기계화율 제고를 위해 소규모의 경지 조건에 따라 소형 콤바인의 개발이 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 메밀과 율무를 대상으로 소형 콤바인의 시작기를 제작하여 메밀과 율무 각각의 포장과 수확 작업 시험을 진행하며 작업속도에 따른 각각의 데이터 분석을 진행하였다. 1 m/s 이상의 작업속도에서 메밀의 포장, 수확 시험 결과 전체 손실 비율은 약 21.8%였다. 이 때 가장 높은 비중을 차지한 것은 탈립손실비율이 약 64.1%였고, 다음으로 배진 손실비율이 약 20.9%로 측정되었다. 데이터 분석 결과 탈립손실비율과 배진손실비율에 대해서는 작업속도에 따라 손실율이 높아지는 상관관계 분석 결과가 도출되었고 수집손실비율과 미예취손실비율에 대해서는 작업속도에 따른 각각의 손실율이 감소하는 상관관계를 나타냈다. 메밀의 수확 곡물의 완전립의 비율은 83.2~96.7%로 측정되었으며 작업속도와 상관관계가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 율무의 포장, 수확작업 결과 총곡립손실비율은 전체 작업속도에 대해 평균 약 22.8%가 측정되었다. 작업속도와 손실비율간의 상관관계 분석에서 배진 손실비율을 제외한 다른 손실비율은 양의 상관관계를 나타냈다. 율무의 수확 곡물 품질 분석 결과 완전립의 비율은 작업속도 0.24 ~ 1.05 m/s에서 87.1~95.7%로 측정되었으 며, 손상립과 지경부착립의 비율에서만 양의 상관관계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 소형 작물을 대상으로한 소형 콤바인 시작기를 제작하였고, 제작된 시작기의 메밀과 율무를 대상으로한 포장, 수확 시험 결과와 이전의 연구들과 비교했을 때 시작기의 성능이 우수한 것을 확인하였 으며 작업속도에 따라 손실에 영향을 끼칠 수 있는 항목을 규명하였다.

토석 채취 후 식생복구지의 토양 특성은 복구 식생의 생육에 중요하다. 본 연구는 토석 채취 후 식생복구지와 인접 소나무 및 굴참나무 임분을 대상으로 0∼10cm, 10∼20cm, 20∼30cm 깊이에 토양의 물리·화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 토양용적밀도와 토양 pH는 식생복구지가 소나무나 굴참나무 임분에 비해 유의적으로 높았으나(P<0.05), 유기탄소와 전질소농도는 인접 산림지에 비해 낮았다. 유효 인은 0~10cm 깊이에서 식생복구지 와 산림지 간 유의적인 차이가 없었으나, 교환성 칼슘은 식생복구지가 인접 산림지에 비해 유의적으로 높게 나타났다. 토양 유기 탄소저장량은 식생복구지가 9,896 kg C ha-1로 소나무 임분 131,368 kg C ha-1나 굴참나무 임분 154,381 kg C ha-1에 비해 유의적으로 낮았으며 질소저장량도(식 생복구지: 2,406 kg N ha-1; 소나무: 10,496 kg N ha-1; 굴참나무: 8,081 kg N ha-1) 유사한 경향을 보였다. 그러나 인, 포타슘, 마그네슘 저장량은 식생복구지와 인접 산림 간 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 한편, 칼슘저장량은 식생복구지가 8,998 kg Ca ha-1로 소나무 임분 697 kg Ca ha-1나 굴참나무 임분 660 kg Ca ha-1에 비해 유의적으로 크게 나타났다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 토석 채취 후 식생복구지는 토양용적밀도와 토양 pH를 낮추고 유기물의 증가와 질소 시비 같은 양분관리가 필요한 것으로 나타났다.

화장품 소재는 안전성이 무엇보다 중요시된다. 화장품에 사용되는 기존의 보존제인 PE에 대장 균 효소 β–gal을 이용하여 안전성이 증가된 PE-gal을 생합성하였다. 화장품 소재로 사용하기 위해 생합 성된 생성물인 PE-gal의 피부 흡수도를 기존의 보존제인 PE와 비교하기 위해 Franz Diffusion cell Assay 시스템을 이용하여 경피투과도를 측정하였다. 같은 질량농도의 시료를 사용하였을 때 PE의 Flux 값, Kp 값은 시간이 지날수록 증가하는 것으로 나타났으나 PE-gal은 투과도를 측정할 수 있을 만큼 투과되지 못 하였다. 이는 PE의 피부투과도가 생합성된 PE-gal 배당체보다 높다는 것을 나타낸다. Marzulli 등에 따라 Kp 값을 이용하여 투과 정도를 확인하였을 때 PE의 투과속도는 1mg/mL의 농도에서 느림(slow)으로 측정 되었다. 따라서 배당체 형태의 PE-gal은 PE에 비해 경피 투과도가 현저히 낮게 나타났다.

코로나19(COVID-19) 상황으로 감염예방과 관리지침에 따라, 정신간호학 실습을 대면으로 진행할 수가 없어, 긴급하게 온라인 실습으로 전환되었다. 이에 본 연구는 간호대학생의 정신간호학 현장실습 대체 온라인 실습에서 성찰일지를 내용분석하여 온라인 실습 교육과정의 질적인 향상을 위한 기초 자료로 활용 하고자 하였다. 연구 참여자는 2021년 정신간호학 온라인 실습에 참여한 간호대학 3학년 학생 31명의 성찰일지를 분석대상으로 하였다. 참여자의 실습이 종료된 2022년 4월 4일부터 5월 31일까지 자료 수집하 였고, 크리펜도르프(Krippendorff, 2019)의 내용분석에 따라 분석하였다. 정신간호학 온라인 실습 성찰일지 를 내용분석한 결과, ‘자기인식의 중요성을 확인함’, ‘정신건강의 가치를 알게 됨’, ‘정신질환자의 회복에 대해 생각함’, ‘치료적 의사소통 향상에 노력함’, ‘정신질환자에 대한 편견이 감소됨’, ‘온라인 실습에 대한 양가감정이 듦’의 6개의 범주로 도출되었다. 본 연구결과를 토대로 정신간호학 온라인 실습에서의 간호대 학생의 성찰의 의미를 파악할 수 있었고, 이러한 성찰일지를 대면 실습 혹은 정신건강전문가 양성과정에도 활용하여 연구하기를 제안한다.

Al2O3 has excellent sintering properties and is important in semiconductor manufacturing processes that require high-temperature resistance and chemical inertness in a plasma environment. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of the chemical characteristics, physical properties, crystal structure, and dispersion stability of three commercially available Al2O3 powders was conducted. The aim was to provide a technological foundation for selecting and utilizing appropriate Al2O3 powders in practical applications. All powders exhibited α-Al2O3 as the main phase, with the presence of beta-phase Na2O-11Al2O3 as the secondary phase. The highest Na+ ion leaching was observed in the aqueous slurry state due to the presence of the secondary phase. Although the average particle size difference among the three powders was not significant, distinct differences in particle size distribution were observed. ALG-1SH showed a broad particle size distribution, P162 exhibited a bimodal distribution, and AES-11 displayed a uniform unimodal distribution. Highconcentration Al2O3 slurries showed differences in viscosity due to ion release when no dispersant was added, affecting the electrical double-layer thickness. Polycarboxylate was found to effectively enhance the dispersion stability of all three powders. In the dispersion stability analysis, ALG-1SH exhibited the slowest sedimentation tendency, as evidenced by the low TSI value, while P162 showed faster precipitation, influenced by the particle size distribution.

Recently, in newly constructed apartment buildings, the exterior wall structures have been characterized by thinness, having various openings, and a significantly low reinforcement ratio. In this study, a nonlinear finite element analysis was performed to investigate the crack damage characteristics of the exterior wall structure. The limited analysis models for a 10-story exterior wall were constructed based on the prototype apartment building, and nonlinear static analysis (push-over analysis) was performed. Based on the finite element (FE) analysis model, the parametric study was conducted to investigate the effects of various design parameters on the strength and crack width of the exterior walls. As the parameters, the vertical reinforcement ratio and horizontal reinforcement ratio of the wall, as well as the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio and shear reinforcement ratio of the connection beam, were addressed. The analysis results showed that the strength and deformation capacity of the prototype exterior walls were limited by the failure of the connection beam prior to the flexural yielding of the walls. Thus, the increase of wall reinforcement limitedly affected the failure modes, peak strengths, and crack damages. On the other hand, when the reinforcement ratio of the connection beams was increased, the peak strength was increased due to the increase in the load-carrying capacity of the connection beams. Further, the crack damage index decreased as the reinforcement ratio of the connection beam increased. In particular, it was more effective to increase the uniformly distributed longitudinal reinforcement ratio in the connection beams to decrease the crack damage of the coupling beams, regardless of the type of the prototype exterior walls.

Highly safe lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are required for large-scale applications such as electrical vehicles and energy storage systems. A highly stable cathode is essential for the development of safe LIBs. LiFePO4 is one of the most stable cathodes because of its stable structure and strong bonding between P and O. However, it has a lower energy density than lithium transition metal oxides. To investigate the high energy density of phosphate materials, vanadium phosphates were investigated. Vanadium enables multiple redox reactions as well as high redox potentials. LiVPO4O has two redox reactions (V5+/V4+/V3+) but low electrochemical activity. In this study, LiVPO4O is doped with fluorine to improve its electrochemical activity and increase its operational redox potential. With increasing fluorine content in LiVPO4O1-xFx, the local vanadium structure changed as the vanadium oxidation state changed. In addition, the operating potential increased with increasing fluorine content. Thus, it was confirmed that fluorine doping leads to a strong inductive effect and high operating voltage, which helps improve the energy density of the cathode materials.

This study aimed to develop a solid self-nanoemulsifying drug delivery system (solid-SNEDDS) to enhance the formulation of ketoconazole (KTZ), a BCS Class II drug with poor solubility. Ketoconazole, which is insoluble above pH 3, requires solubilization for effective delivery. This SNEDDS comprises oil, surfactant, and co-surfactant, which spontaneously emulsify in the gastrointestinal tract environment to form nanoemulsions with droplet sizes less than 100 nm. The optimal SNE-vehicle composition of oleic acid, TPGS, and PEG 400 at a 10:80:10 weight ratio was determined based on the smallest droplet size achieved. This composition was used to prepare liquid SNEDDS containing ketoconazole. The droplet size and polydispersity index (PDI) of the resulting liquid SNEDDS were analyzed. Subsequently, solid-SNEDDS was fabricated using a spray-drying method with solidifying carriers such as silicon dioxide, crospovidone, and magnesium alumetasilicate. The physicochemical properties of the solid-SNEDDS were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction, and its solubility, droplet size, and PDI were evaluated. In particular, the solid-SNEDDS containing ketoconazole and crospovidone in a 2:1 weight ratio exhibited significantly enhanced solubility, highlighting its potential for improved medication adherence and dissolution rates.

In this study, quality properties of rapeseed oil by different roasting temperatures (140, 160, 180, and 200℃) were investigated. Roasted-pressed oil (RPO) showed a decrease in lightness and an increase in redness and yellowness with an increase in temperature compared to cold-pressed oil (CPO). In addition, the β-carotene and tocopherol content also increased in RPO as the roasting temperature increased. The tocopherol content increased by 18~20% in RPO at 200℃ compared to CPO. This increase in bioactive components led to improved radical scavenging activity dependent on roasting temperature, and RPO at 200°C showed a 2.7-fold improvement compared to CPO. Finally, it was observed that higher roasting temperatures resulted in an extended oxidation induction period, increasing by up to 3.3 times. In conclusion, roasting is an effective method for enhancing the oil functionality of domestic rapeseed varieties. This study provides basic data for producing high-quality oil.

This study investigated quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of beetroots after blanching. Beetroots were blanched in distilled water, 2% NaCl water, and 2% citric acid water at 100°C for 3 minutes (the blanched group). The moisture content was highest in the control (CON) at 91.30% (p<0.05), and cooking loss was lowest in the water-blanched beetroot (BW) at 5.39% (p<0.01). Chromaticity decreased after blanching compared to CON (p<0.001). Total polyphenol contents (TPC) and total flavonoid contents (TFC) decreased after blanching, and as a result of comparing the True retention (TR) of the blanching treatment group, BW had the highest with TPC TR 91.22% and TFC TR 70.51%. DPPH and ABTS+ radical scavenging activities were highest in the CON, and in the blanching group BW was highest scavenging activity. The total number of microorganisms in the CON group was 2.97 log CFU/g, whereas no microorganisms were detected in the blanched groups. Therefore, this study, blanching in water without additives is the most appropriate method for preserving physiologically active substances and nutrients in beetroots and inhibiting microbial growth.

In this study, the performances of H2S, NH3, and HCl sensors for real-time monitoring in small emission facilities (4, 5 grades in Korea) were evaluated at high concentration conditions of those gases. And the proper approach for the collection of reliable measurement data by sensors was suggested through finding out the effect on sensor performances according to changes in temperature and humidity (relative humidity, RH) settings. In addition, an assessment on sensor data correction considering the effects produced by environmental settings was conducted. The effects were tested in four different conditions of temperature and humidity. The sensor performances (reproducibility, precision, lower detection limit (LDL), and linearity) were good for all three sensors. The intercept (ADC0) values for all three sensors were good for the changes of temperature and humidity conditions. The variation in the slope value of the NH3 sensor showed the highest value, and this was followed by the HCl, H2S sensors. The results of this study can be helpful for data collection by enabling the more reliable and precise measurements of concentrations measured by sensors.

Industrial complex areas are an important factor that contributes to economic development. However, these areas also produce a significant amount of noxious air pollutants. In particular, PM10 emitted from industrial complex areas can lead to detrimental effects on human health. This study was conducted to survey environmental conditions and measure the concentration of PM10 in indoor and outdoor living spaces in Yeosu and Gwangyang. In Yeosu, the level of PM10 concentration in indoor living spaces was measured at 49.38 μg/m3, while the outdoor level was measured at 43.60 μg/m3. In Gwangyang, the PM10 concentration in indoor living spaces was measured at 20.08 μg/m3 while the outdoor measurement came to 18.14 μg/m3. When analyzing the percentage of those who were highly concerned with environmental pollution among a survey group of 200 people, Yeosu City had a rate of 76.5%, while Gwangyang City had a comparable rate of 73%. When looking at the time-activity patterns of residents in both locations, Yeosu residents spend more than 80.0% of their time inside their living spaces, while Gwangyang residents spend more than 70.0% of time inside their living spaces. These high rates are largely due to the fact that most of the residents of these areas are elderly. In both Yeosu and Gwangyang, it was found that 40% of residents use TV and radio rather than newspapers or handouts to obtain information about environmental pollution problems in their area.
