최근 농지 및 수자원의 염류화로 인해 염생식물에 대한 작물화와 생육 조건 구명을 위한 연구 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 그러나 재배 조건 변화에 따른 작물의 생육 및 기능성 성분 변화 분석을 위해서는 양액 및 작물 생육부 시료를 채취하여 이를 전처리 및 분석해야 하여 시간적, 인적 자원의 소모가 높다. 본 연구에서는 염생식물의 최적 생육 조건 구명을 효율적으로 수행하기 위해 비파괴적으로 재배 현장에서 실시간으로 작물 생육부와 수경재배 근권부의 염분 농도를 모니터링할 수 있는 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발 시스템을 통해 NaCl 0 mM, 50 mM, 150 mM, 300 mM의 4가지 농도 조건에서 갯방풍을 대상으로 재배실험을 수행한 결과, 재배 중 염분 농도 수치의 변화 및 염분 농도가 높을수록 생체중이 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 실제 생육 분석 결과에 따르면 개발 시스템을 통한 모니터링 결과에 상응하는 생체중 결과를 확인하여 염생식물의 생육 모니터링 적용이 가능할 것으로 평가되었다. 그러나 단위 생체중 당 기능성물질 함량의 경우, NaCl 농도가 증가할수록 증가하는 것으로 나타나 갯방풍의 상업적 재배 조건의 구명을 위해서는 생체중 외에 기능성 성분의 모니터링을 위한 시스템 보완이 필요하다고 판단되었다.

The Saemangeum has a dry surface characteristic with a low moisture content ratio due to the saline and silt soil, so the vegetation cover is low compared to other areas. In areas with low vegetation cover, wind erosion has a high probability of scattering dust. If the vegetation cover is increased by cultivating crops that can withstand the Saemangeum reclaimed environment, scattering dust can be reduced by reducing the flow rate at the bottom. Thus, the purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of suppressing the generation of fine dust and scattering dust by cultivating winter forage crops on the Saemangeum reclaimed land. While growing 0.5 ha of barley and 0.5 ha of triticale in Saemangeum reclaimed land, the concentration of fine dust was monitored according to agricultural work and growth stage. Changes in the concentrations of PM-10, PM-2.5, and PM-1.0 were monitored on the leeward, the windward and centering on the crop field. As a result of monitoring, PM-1.0 had little effect on crop cultivation. the concentration of PM-10 and PM-2.5 increased according to tillage and harvesting, and tillage had a higher increasing the concentration of PM-10 and PM-2.5 than that of harvesting. According to the growth stage of crops, the effect of suppressing scattering dust was shown, and the effect of suppressing scattering dust was higher in the heading stage than in the seedling stage. So, it was found that there was an effect of suppressing scattering dust other than the effect of land covering. Through this study, it was possible to know about the generation and suppression effect of scattering dust according to crop cultivation.

The frequent detection and occurrence of micropollutants (MPs) in aquatic ecosystems has raised public health concerns worldwide. In this study, the behavior of 50 MPs was investigated in three different domestic wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Furthermore, the Kruskal-Wallis test was used to assess the geographical and seasonal variation of MPs in the WWTPs. The results showed that the concentrations of 43 MPs ranged from less than 0.1 to 237.6 μg L-1, while other seven MPs including 17-ethynylestradiol, 17-estradiol, sulfathiazole, sulfamethazine, clofibric acid, simvastatin, and lovastatin were not detected in all WWTPs. Among the detected MPs, the pharmaceuticals such as metformin, acetaminophen, naproxen, and caffeine were prominent with maximum concentrations of 133.4, 237.6, 71.5, and 107.7 μg L-1, respectively. Most perfluorinated compounds and nitrosamines were found at trace levels of 1.2 to 55.3 ng L-1, while the concentration of corrosion inhibitors, preservatives (parabens), and endocrine disruptors ranged from less than 0.1 to 4310.8 ng L-1. Regardless of the type of biological treatment process such as MLE, A2O, and MBR, the majority of pharmaceuticals (except lincomycin, diclofenac, iopromide, and carbamazepine), parabens (except Methyl paraben), and endocrine disruptors were removed by more than 80%. However, the removal efficiencies of certain MPs such as atrazine, DEET, perfluorinated compounds (except PFHxA), nitrosamines, and corrosion inhibitors were relatively low or their concentration even increased after treatment. The results of statistical analysis reveal that there is no significant geographical difference in the removal efficacy of MPs, but there are temporal seasonal variations in all WWTPs.

With the wide use of greenhouses, the working hours have been increasing inside the greenhouse for workers. In the closed ventilated greenhouse, the internal environment has less affected to external weather during making a suitable temperature for crop growth. Greenhouse workers are exposed to organic dust including soil dust, pollen, pesticide residues, microorganisms during tillage process, soil grading, fertilizing, and harvesting operations. Therefore, the health status and working environment exposed to workers should be considered inside the greenhouse. It is necessary to secure basic data on particulate matter (PM) concentrations in order to set up dust reduction and health safety plans. To understand the PM concentration of working environment in greenhouse, the PM concnentrations were monitored in the cut-rose and Hallabong greenhouses in terms of PM size, working type, and working period. Compare to no-work (move) period, a significant increase in PM concentration was found during tillage operation in Hallabong greenhouse by 4.94 times on TSP (total suspended particle), 2.71 times on PM-10 (particle size of 10 μm or larger), and 1.53 times on PM-2.5, respectively. During pruning operation in cut-rose greenhouse, TSP concentration was 7.4 times higher and PM-10 concentration was 3.2 times higher than during no-work period. As a result of analysis of PM contribution ratio by particle sizes, it was shown that PM-10 constitute the largest percentage. There was a significant difference in the PM concentration between work and no-work periods, and the concentration of PM during work was significant higher (p < 0.001). It was found that workers were generally exposed to a high level of dust concentration from 2.5 μm to 35.15 μm during tillage operation.

The aim of this review is to communicate some essential knowledge of the underlying mechanism of the corrosion of structural containment alloys during molten salt reactor operation in the context of prospective online monitoring in future MSR installations. The formation of metal halide species and the progression of their concentration in the molten salt do reflect containment corrosion, tracing the depletion of alloying metals at the alloy salt interface will assure safe conditions during reactor operation. Even though the progress of alloying metal halides concentrations in the molten salt do strongly understate actual corrosion rates, their prospective 1st order kinetics followed by near-linearly increase is attributed to homogeneous matrix corrosion. The service life of the structural containment alloy is derived from homogeneous matrix corrosion and near-surface void formation but less so from intergranular cracking (IGC) and pitting corrosion. Online monitoring of corrosion species is of particular interest for molten chloride systems since besides the expected formation of chromium chloride species CrCl2 and CrCl3, other metal chloride species such as FeCl2, FeCl3, MoCl2, MnCl2 and NiCl2 will form, depending on the selected structural alloy. The metal chloride concentrations should follow, after an incubation period of about 10,000 hours, a linear projection with a positive slope and a steady increase of < 1 ppm per day. During the incubation period, metal concentration show 1st order kinetics and increasing linearly with time1/2. Ideally, a linear increase reflects homogeneous matrix corrosion, while a sharp increase in the metal chloride concentration could set a warning flag for potential material failure within the projected service life, e.g. as result of intergranular cracking or pitting corrosion. Continuous monitoring of metal chloride concentrations can therefore provide direct information about the mechanism of the ongoing corrosion scenario and offer valuable information for a timely warning of prospective material failure.

Inaccurate amounts of active ingredients in disinfectants can result in inefficiency or in potential toxicity to the environment and living organisms. This may lead to disinfection failure, and consequently, biosecurity failure. To ensure the efficiency of disinfectants and their ongoing compliance with safety and quality requirements, continuous and systematic post-market surveillance studies are needed. Herein, the content of ten commercial disinfectants purchased in 2021 was analyzed. Selective analytical techniques, such as automated titration, colorimetry, and high-performance liquid chromatography, were used to evaluate the content of several active ingredients present in disinfectants, such as potassium peroxymonosulfate, benzalkonium chloride, glutaraldehyde, phosphoric acid, citric acid, and malic acid. The obtained values were then compared with the label claims; the active ingredient contents of all disinfectants were within the acceptable range of 90–120% of the label claim.

An estuary is an area where a freshwater river or stream meets the ocean. Even before the importance of the value of estuaries was recognized, the estuary was lost because of large-scale conversion by draining, filling, damming, and dredging. In South Korea, 643 estuaries are located, and the total area is 3,248,300 ha, accounting for 32.5% of the total area of South Korea. Over 35% of Korean estuaries are closed estuaries which are only temporally connected with the sea, either permanently or periodically. Since 2008, in order to preserve the estuary ecosystem and solve major issues in the estuary by accumulating knowledge about the estuarine ecosystem, the Ministry of Environment of Republic of Korea has been conducting the “Estuarine Ecosystem Monitoring and Assessment Project”. At 668 sites of 325 estuaries, epilithic diatom, benthic macroinvertebrate, fish, and vegetation are investigated, and the habitat condition of each site is evaluated using the newly developed biotic index. More than 100 researchers annually record 2,097 species of estuaries according to the standardized survey guidelines over the past 14 years and provide strictly managed data necessary for establishing estuaries conservation policies. As a result of bibliometric analysis of 1,195 research articles related to the monitoring and assessment of the estuarine ecosystem, research on pollutants such as heavy metals and sediment control have recently been conducted. “Estuarine Ecosystem Monitoring and Assessment Project” is an ecological monitoring type of long-term mandated monitoring that is usually focused on identifying trends. Although it is difficult to identify the mechanism influencing a change in an ecosystem through long-term mandated monitoring, providing empirical data for supporting evidence-based policy, decision-making, and the management of ecosystems. In order to increase the efficiency of the project, research to investigate the relationship between sediments and pollutants and organisms can be conducted at specific estuaries or sites to compensate for the shortcomings of mandatory monitoring.

본 연구는 담배거세미나방 국내 개체군의 예찰에 필요한 성유인제의 최적 조성을 찾기 위해 수행하였다. 담배거세미나방 암컷 성충에서 알 려진 두 성페로몬 성분인 (Z,E)-9,11-tetradecadienyl acetate, (Z,E)-9,12-tetradecadienyl acetate를 5.5 ~ 10.0 및 9:1 ~ 99.1, 9:1 ~ 39:1 비 율 사이에 여러 조성으로 만들어 고무격막 방출제에 담아 펀넬트랩을 이용하여 콩과 땅콩포장에서 수컷 성충에 대한 유인력을 비교한 결과, 두 성 분의 19:1 비율이 가장 적절한 유인 조성으로 결정하였다. 그러나 Z9E11-14:Ac 단독 성분 미끼에는 수컷 성충이 거의 유인되지 않았다. 이 결과 는 담배거세미나방 성충 예찰용의 성유인제 구성에는 두 성페로몬 화합물이 반드시 필요한 성분임을 나타낸다. 미끼에 담긴 성페로몬은 0.1 ~10 mg 사이에서 함량이 증가할수록 유인된 수가 많았다. 적절한 트랩 설치 높이는 1.5 m로 결정하였다.

본 종설에서는 벼와 옥수수, 콩과작물, 감자, 들깨, 참깨에 대한 주요 나비목 해충 22종의 성페로몬 조성에 대해 국내외에서 연구된 결과들 을 비교하면서 성충 예찰 수단으로 활용 가능한지를 분석하여 간단하게 정리하였다. 이 중 4종의 국내 개체군에서는 성페로몬샘 추출물로부터 성 페로몬 성분들이 동정되고, 야외실험을 통해 그 조성이 규명되었다. 다른 3종에 대해서는 국내 개체군을 이용한 페로몬 화합물의 화학적 동정과 정은 없었으나, 보고된 성페로몬 성분들을 이용한 실내 및 야외에서의 세밀한 조성실험을 통해 국내 개체군에 대한 최적 예찰조성이 선발되었다. 일부 종에 대해서는 최적 예찰미끼 개발을 위해 성페로몬샘에서 발견되는 미량성분의 역할에 대해 검토할 필요가 있다.

난온대 상록활엽수림의 변화과정을 장기 모니터링하기 위해 1996년 완도수목원에 설치된 16개 고정조사구(시험구, 대조구)를 대상으로 식생구조 변화를 분석했다. 특히 1996년도 복원기법으로 도입한 시험처리(솎아베기, 식물도입)가 식생 발달에 미친 영향을 심도 있게 논의했다. 교목층에 붉가시나무가 우점한 군락(고정조사구 1∼3)에서는 이 종의 평균상대우점치(MIP)가 줄고, 외부에서 들어온 상록활엽수종의 MIP가 늘어나 장래 식생구조 변화가 예상된다. 붉가시 나무-낙엽활엽수림(고정조사구 5, 7), 소나무림(고정조사구 9, 10)에서도 상록활엽수종의 세력 확장이 확인됐다. 솎아베 기를 시행했던 시험구에서 조류 피식 산포형인 생달나무, 참식나무, 후박나무 등의 종 유입과 상록활엽수종의 세력 확장이 두드러져, 난온대림 식생 발달을 촉진하는데 유효했다고 본다. 시험구에 상록활엽수종을 심어 식생구조 변화를 꾀했지만, 식재 수량이 적어 식생구조 변화에 끼친 영향이 미약했던 것으로 보인다. 다른 식생유형보다 소나무림은 소나무, 곰솔의 쇠퇴에 따른 상록활엽수림으로의 식생구조 변화가 뚜렷했다.

Pluripotent stem cells could self-renew and differentiate into various cells. In particular, porcine pluripotent stem cells are useful for preclinical therapy, transgenic animals, and agricultural usage. These stem cells have naïve and primed pluripotent states. Naïve pluripotent stem cells represented by mouse embryonic stem cells form chimeras after blastocyst injection. Primed pluripotent stem cells represented by mouse epiblast stem cells and human embryonic stem cells. They could not produce chimeras after blastocyst injection. Populations of embryonic stem cells are not homogenous; therefore, reporter systems are used to clarify the status of stem cells and to isolate the cells. For this reason, studies of the OCT4 reporter system have been conducted for decades. This review will discuss the naïve and primed pluripotent states and recent progress in the development of porcine OCT4 reporter systems.

본 논문은 선박 기관실 내의 효율적인 감시를 위한 팬-틸트-줌(PTZ) 카메라 기반의 모니터링 시스템의 설계 방법을 다룬다. 선 박 기관실에는 여전히 전통적인 아날로그 계기들을 사용하는 곳이 많고, 침수나 화재 등 안전과 밀접하게 관련된 사각지대들이 다수 존 재한다. 이러한 감시 개소들에 대하여 비교적 빠른 주기로 넓은 범위를 보장하는 카메라 기반 감시 시스템은 선박의 안전을 강화시킬 수 있는 효과적인 대안이 될 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존 PTZ 카메라의 기능들을 소프트웨어적 방법으로 더욱 강화시킨 형태의 모니 터링 시스템을 제안한다. 보다 구체적으로는 카메라제어 모듈, 위치등록 모듈, 순회제어 모듈, 멀티뷰 영상재구성 모듈로 구성된 모니터 링 시스템의 설계 방법을 제안하고, 제안된 방법은 기관실 환경에서의 실험을 통해 그 효용성을 평가한다.

A pump-type eDNA filtering system that can control voltage and hydraulic pressure respectively has been developed, and applied a filter case that can filter out without damaging the filter. The filtering performance of the developed system was evaluated by comparing the eDNA concentration with the conventional vacuum-pressured filtering method at the catchment conduit intake reservoir. The developed system was divided into a voltage control (manual pump system) method and a pressure control (automatic pump system) method, and the pressure was measured during filtering and the pressure change of each system was compared. The voltage control method started with 65 [KPa] at the beginning of the filtering, and as the filtering time elapsed, the amount of filtrate accumulated in the filter increased, so the pressure gradually increased. As a result of controlling the pressure control method to maintain a constant pressure according to the designed algorithm, there was a difference in the width of the hydraulic pressure fluctuation during the filtering process according to the feedback time of the hydraulic pressure sensor, and it was confirmed that the pressure was converged to the target pressure. The filtering performance of the developed system was confirmed by measuring the eDNA concentration and comparing the voltage control method and the hydraulic control method with the control group. The voltage control method obtained similar results to the control group, but the hydraulic control method showed lower results than the control group. It is considered that the low eDNA concentration in the hydraulic control method is due to the large pressure deviation during filtering and maintaining a constant pressure during the filtering process. Therefore, rather than maintaining a constant pressure during filtering, it was confirmed that a voltage control method in which the pressure is gradually increased as the filtrate increases with the lapse of filtering time is suitable for collecting eDNA. As a result of comparing the average concentration of eDNA in lentic zone and lotic zone as a control group, it was found to be 96.2 [ng μL-1] and 88.4 [ng μL-1l], respectively. The result of comparing the average concentration of eDNA by the pump method was also high in the lentic zone sample as 90.7 [ng μL-1] and 74.8 [ng μL-1] in the lentic zone and the lotic zone, respectively. The high eDNA concentration in the lentic zone is thought to be due to the influence of microorganisms including the remaining eDNA.

태화강에서 방류한 연어(Oncorhynchus keta) 치어의 성장, 생존 및 어류상 등의 모니터링를 통 한 생태학적 기초 자료를 확보하고자, 방류 후 연어 치어의 지점별 포획개체수, 성장 및 어류 상 특성을 조사하였다. 태화강 상류로부터 총 4개 지점[선바위교(St.1), 구영교(St.2), 삼호교(St.3), 명촌대교(St.4)]에서 2년간 조사를 실시하였다. 2017년 연어 치어 방류 후 전장은 평균 10 mm, 체중은 평균 0.8 g의 증가를 나타내었다. 2018년 연어 치어 방류 후 평균 전장 10 mm, 체중 0.5 g의 증가를 나타내었다. 연어 치어를 포식할 수 있는 어식성 어류는 St.1에서 6종(동사리, 숭어, 배스, 꺽지, 황어 및 끄리), St.2에서 5종(동사리, 황어, 배스, 꺽지 및 끄리), St.3에서 6종 (큰가시고기, 가물치, 날망둑, 배스, 황어, 끄리) 및 St.4는 8종(큰가시고기, 베도라치, 문절망둑, 날망둑, 풀망둑, 강준치, 점농어 및 황어)이 출현하였다. 본 연구결과 연어 치어는 체중의 증가 보다 전장 및 체장의 성장에 집중하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 적정 방류지역은 포식생물의 서 식이 적고 수심, 유속, 염분 등의 변화가 적은 St.1과 St.2 지점이 적절할 것으로 판단되며 방 류 시기는 끄리 및 배스 등의 포식어류의 먹이활동이 활발하지 않은 1월 초순 혹은 포식 활동 이 적은 야간이나 새벽시간에 방류하는 것이 적절할 것으로 판단된다.

2020년 2월 제12차 전자장치부착법 개정으로 우리나라 전자감독제도는 재판 전 단계를 포함한 형사사법 전 단계에서 활용할 수 있게 되었고, 재판 전 미결구금과 가석방에 한정된 것이기는 하지만, 적용범죄가 특정범죄에서 전체범죄로 확대되는 전환점을 맞이하게 되었다. 본 논문은 12차 법률 개정으로 인한 변화 중 전체범죄로 가석방 전자감독의 적용대상 확대에 초점을 맞추어 이를 비판적으로 검토해보고자 한다. 구체적으로 먼저 가석방 전자감독의 구체적인 내용과 실시현황을 살펴본 후, 둘째, 가석방 전자감독제도의 실행 상의 쟁점을 대상자 선정기준, 적용기술의 적절성 및 인력부족 문제로 나누어 살펴보고, 셋째, 가석방 전자감독제도의 기대효과로 제시 된 과밀수용 해소, 준수사항 이행 여부에 대한 확인, 재범억제효과가 현재의 제도 내에서 실현 가능한 것인지를 검토해보았다. 전체범죄로 가석방 전자감독 적용대상의 확대는 전자감독의 활용목적이 이전과는 근본적으로 다르고, 적용대상도 중간 혹은 저위험 범죄자로 변화되었기 때문에, 이러한 변화에 맞추어 고위험 특정사범을 중심으로 운영되었던 전자감독제도의 재설계가 필요하지만, 체계적인 준비 없이 제도가 시행되었다고 할 수 있다. 향후 전체범죄로 가석방 전자감독 대상을 확대하는 정책의 목표를 명확히 하는 것이 필요하다. 현재처럼 준수사항 위반 이행 여부 확인이라는 기대효과는 전체범죄로 가석방 전자감독 적용대상을 확대하는 정책 논리로는 미약하다. 가석방 전자감독은 원래 가석방제도가 추구하는 사회복귀 및 재사회화 촉진이 정책목표가 되어야 하고, 그다음 이러한 목표 를 촉진하기 위해서 기존 보호관찰관이 담당했던 가석방제도를 보완하기 위해 어떠한 전자감시기술을 적용해서, 누구를 대상으로, 어떠한 방법으로 실행할 것인지에 대한 구체적인 계획이 필요하다. 이때 고려해 할 사항은 첫째, 가석방 전자감독의 확대가 통제망의 확대를 낳지 않도록 해야 한다는 점이며, 둘째, 전자감시기술을 활용한 강도 높은 행동 통제 및 감시가 재사회화에 긍정적 영향을 미칠 가능성도 있지만, 반대로 전자발찌라는 낙인으로 인한 심리적 스트레스와 직장생활에서의 어려움 등 사회복귀에 부정적인 측면도 있다는 점이다. 이와 더불어 실시간으로 작동하는 전자감시기술은 준수사항 위반을 발 견하는 것이 훨씬 더 용이하며, 이는 보호관찰관의 감독과 비교해 대상자가 준수사항 위반으로 인한 가석방 취소 확률을 높인다는 점도 고려해야 한다. 마지막 고려사항은 대상자의 위험 수준에 맞는 프로그램 및 감독수준의 적용이라는 위험원칙과도 연결 된다. 사회적 위험도가 낮은 일반사범에 대해서는 현행보다 형집행률 기준을 현저하게 낮춰 가석방을 허가하고, 허가된 가석방 대상자에게는 재택감독 전자감독제도를 도입하는 것을 고려해볼 필요가 있다. 그리고 재택감독 전자감독방식은 전자감시기 술을 통한 통제 수준과 자유시간의 부과를 대상자의 반사회적 행동을 수정하고 친사회적 활동으로의 점진적인 변화를 촉진하기 위한 긍정적 강화기제로 활용하면서, 다른 한편으로는 보호관찰관의 적극적인 사회복귀지원 활동이 결합된 방식으로 운영되어야 할 것이다.
