최소 사후 경과 시간(PMImin) 측정에 필수적으로 이용되는 것 중 하나가 시식성 곤충의 발육 속도를 정확히 측정한 데이터이다. 법의곤충학(Medicolegal entomology)을 이용한 최소 사후 경과 시간 측정 방법은 과거에 비해 빠르게 발전하고 있지만, 보다 정확한 데이터를 얻기 위해서는 추가적인 기초 데이터 확보가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 가장 대표적인 시식성 곤충 중 하나인 연두금파리(Lucilia illustris)를 대상으로 온도에 따른 성장 속도를 측정하였다. 흔히 blow fly 또는 green bottle fly라고도 불리는 연두금파리는 사체에 가장 먼저 나타나는 시식성 파리 중 하나이기 때문에, 해당 종의 유충 성장 속도를 측정하면 최소 사후 경과 시간을 비교적 정확하게 추정하는 것이 가능하다. 실험에 사용된 연두금파리는 5~9월경 대전 유성구 일대에서 성충을 채집하여 종 동정, 사육 및 증식, 예비 실험을 거친 후 본 실험을 진행하였다. 본 실험은 성충 사육 케이지 내에서 교미 및 산란 유도 후 산란된 알을 돼지 생간에 접종하여 유충 사육 전용 챔버에 넣고, 12시간 간격으로 6개체 샘플링하고 추가로 각 령기 변화 시점에 샘플링을 진행하였다. 샘플링된 유충은 길이 측정 및 이미지 촬영을 진행하였다. 16℃, 19°C, 22°C, 25°C, 28°C, 31°C, 34°C 7개 온도 조건에서 연두금파리의 성장 속도 측정 실험을 3회 반복하였으며, 산란으로 부터 부화 및 우화까지 시간 등을 포함한 전체 성장 시간 데이터와 유충 몸길이 데이터, 이미지 자료, 샘플링한 유충 액침표본 등을 확보하였다. 16℃, 19°C, 22°C, 25°C, 28°C, 31°C에서 연두금파리의 전체 성장 시간은 각각 792.7±70.2, 441.0±53.3, 366.7±15.1, 288.0±7.2, 255.7±4.0, 260.3±13.2로 측정되었으며, 34°C에서는 3령 이후 성장 하지 못하고 폐사함을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 연두금파리의 성장 과정 데이터와 최소 사후 경과 시간 추정을 위한 지표로서 활용 가능한 데이터를 제공한다.

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 was conducted to investigate the growth characteristics of domestic 'Sulhyang' strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) seedlings and to analyze their relationships in order to develop a growth prediction model. Fresh weight, dry weight, and leaf area were measured to validate the newly developed growth model. The relative growth rate (RGR) of ‘Sulhyang’ seedlings’ dry weight was an average of 0.026 g·g-1·d-1, and it increased to 0.066 g·g-1·d-1 on the 49th day after transplanting (DAT). The relationship between DAT and RGR was represented as RGR (dry weight)(g·g- 1·d-1) = 0.0392/(1 + exp(–(DAT – 34.9940)/5.8662)). The crop growth rate (CGR) was an average of 0.060 g·m-2·d-1, and it increased to 0.211 g·m-2·d-1 on the 70th DAT. The relationship between DAT and CGR was calculated as CGR (dry weight)(g·m-2·d-1) = 0.1293/(1 + exp(–(DAT – 49.3917)/6.0928)). The relationship between shoot fresh weight (y) and shoot dry weight (x) per plant showed a linear relationship of y = 4.3189x + 0.7812 (R2 = 0.9976). Fresh weight, dry weight, and leaf area with respect to DAT and cumulative temperature increased exponentially, and sigmoid curve models were developed based on these data. The model with the highest coefficient of determination was found for the relationship between shoot dry weight (y) and cumulative temperature (x), represented as y = 14.2285/(1 + exp(–(x – 1590.1295)/377.8112)) (R2 = 0.9715). The results of this study can be utilized as valuable information for establishing a systematic management system for seedling production using strawberry cutting propagation methods. For the development of a more precise growth prediction model in the future, it is necessary to analyze and apply a wider range of growth indicators and meteorological factors related to strawberry seedlings.

본 연구는 서울대공원 인공사육장에서 남생이(Mauremys reevesii) 알의 부화온도 차이에 따른 부화기간과 성장에 영향을 주는지 알아보고자 연구했다. 전체 201개의 남생이 알을 26(n=89)℃, 28(n=75)℃ 그리고 32(n=37)℃에서 각각 부화시켰다. 남생이 알의 부화온도와 부화기간은 온도에 따라 유의미한 차이를 나타내었다. 본 연구에서 부화 온도가 높을수록 부화율이 증가하였다. 26℃, 28℃, 그리고 32℃에서 부화한 알의 부화 기간은 각각 66.1(±4.0, n=52)일, 65.3(±3.3, n=44)일 그리고 58.8(±7.7, n=31)일이었다. 부화율은 32℃(83.8%)가 26℃(58.4%)와 28℃(58.7%)보다 상대적으로 높았다. 32℃에서 부화 한 14일 된 새끼의 몸무게가 26℃와 28℃에서 부화한 14일 된 새끼의 몸무게보다 높았다. 그렇지만 부화 후 180일과 270일에 새끼의 몸무게는 부화 온도에 따라 큰 차이가 없었다. 본 연구에서 한국산 남생이(M. reevesii) 알의 부화 온도가 부화 기간과 성장 초기 남생이의 체중에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다.

명월(Sedum nussbaumerianum)은 돌나물과(Crassulaceae) 에 속한 다육식물의 일종이다. 명월은 적색, 황색, 녹색의 다 양한 엽색을 가지고 있고 백색 내지 연분홍색의 꽃을 개화하 여 관상가치가 높다. 그러나 학술적으로는 거의 연구된 바가 없는 미지의 식물이다. 이에 따라 본 연구에서는 명월의 생육 에 적합한 적정 주야간 온도를 구명하기 위해 주야간 온도를 각각 20/15, 24/19, 28/23, 32/27℃의 네 가지 단계로 나누 어 설계하였다. 결과에서 명월은 20/15℃ 처리구에서는 초장, 줄기의 지름, 엽폭, 지상부 생체중, 지상부 수분함량, 꽃수, 엽 색과 꽃색의 CIELAB a*가 가장 높은 것으로 나타나 색상 품 질이 우수했던 것으로 평가되었다. 한편, 24/19℃ 처리구에 서는 초폭, 근장, 피복면적, 엽수, 엽장, 지하부 생체중, 지상 부와 지하부 건물중, 개화율, 꽃대의 길이, 화장, 화폭이 가장 높은 것으로 나타나 색상품질은 20/15℃에 비해 상대적으로 낮았으나, 생육수준은 20/15℃ 처리구에 비해 더 우수했던 것으로 평가되었다. 반대로 본 연구에서 상대적으로 가장 높 은 온도수준인 32/27℃에서는 생육수준이 저조하고 과거 연 구에서 스트레스 지표로 사용되었던 엽색의 CIELAB L*과 b* 의 수치가 높았던 것으로 나타났다. 또한 32/27℃ 처리구 에서는 생식생장이 완전히 억제되어 개화율이 0%로 조사되 었다. 마지막으로 피어슨 상관 계수(Pearson correlation coefficient) 분석에서 L*은 지상부 생체중과 음의 상관관계 를 가진 것으로 나타났으며, b*는 지상부와 지하부의 생체중 및 건물중과 모두 음의 상관관계를 가지는 것으로 나타나 과 거 연구와 마찬가지로 L*과 b*가 식물의 생장과 반비례함을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로 명월의 식물체의 크기를 유의미하게 증대시키고 개화를 촉진시키기 위해서는 24/19℃에서 재배할 것을 권고하며, 상대적으로 짙은 적색의 엽색과 화색을 가진 식물체를 재배생산 하고자 하는 경우 20/15℃에서 재배할 것 을 권고한다.

Measuring the concentration of corrosion products or nuclear fission products (FPs) in molten salts is crucial for pyroprocessing and molten salt reactors. Electrochemical analysis methods that can be performed in situ offer significant advantages for monitoring the concentration of corrosion products or FPs in molten salts. A microelectrode is an electrode with a length of several tens of micrometers on one side. The use of a microelectrode for electrochemical analysis has several advantages due to its small size, including rapidly reaching the limiting current regardless of the scan rate, immediate attainment of the limiting current upon applying an overpotential for instant monitoring within milliseconds, accurate measurement even in low convection systems, a small iR drop resulting from low flowing current and high signal accuracy, and high current density resulting in a high signal-tonoise ratio (SNR). Among various methods for making microelectrodes, techniques involving cutting a thin wire or using capillaries (such as the dual-bore capillary and pulled glass capillary methods) require precise manual skills and experience. Therefore, the results may vary depending on the maker’s skill level, and it can be difficult to control the electrode’s area, thickness, and surface uniformly. Recent research has focused on using semiconductor processes to fabricate microelectrodes, where CVD, metal sputtering, photolithography, and etching processes work together to deposit, refine, and shape the required material on a silicon wafer to create microelectrodes. However, the durability of microelectrodes produced this way is still low (usable for about 15-30 minutes), and there is no clear research on the degradation mechanism over time. To verify the proper operation of the fabricated microelectrodes, cyclic voltammetry (CV) is performed at various scan rates (from 10 mVs-1 to 2 Vs-1), and chronoamperometry (CA) is also examined to confirm whether the electrodes rapidly reach a steady-state current. After confirming their proper operation, CV is continuously measured until the microelectrodes are destroyed in a LiCl-KCl solution containing a small amount of FPs (Sm 340 mM) at 450°C. By observing changes in the electrical signal of the microelectrodes over time, the durability is evaluated, and the mechanism of performance degradation of the electrode is discovered. The experiment is then repeated by gradually increasing the temperature by 30°C from 450°C up to 600°C to observe the changes with temperature. This study provides basic information for future microelectrode experiments, and by diagnosing the cause of destruction, a more durable microelectrode structure can be manufactured.

Transition metal oxides formed by a single or heterogeneous combination of transition metal ions and oxygen ions have various types of crystal structures, which can be classified as layered structures and non-layered structures. With non-layered structures, it is difficult to realize a two-dimensional structure using conventional synthesis methods. In this study, we report the synthesis of cobalt oxide into wafer-scale nanosheets using a surfactant-assisted method. A monolayer of ionized surfactant at the water-air interface acts as a flexible template for direct cobalt oxide crystallization below. The nanosheets synthesized on the water surface can be easily transferred to an arbitrary substrate. In addition, the synthesizing morphological and crystal structures of the nanosheets were analyzed according to the reaction temperatures. The electrochemical properties of the synthesized nanosheets were also measured at each temperature. The nanosheets synthesized at 70 °C exhibited higher catalytic properties for the oxygen evolution reaction than those synthesized at other temperatures. This work suggests the possibility of changing material performance by adjusting synthesis temperature when synthesizing 2D nanomaterials using a wide range of functional oxides, resulting in improved physical properties.

This study was carried out to investigate how airborne bacteria are distributed under different temperature conditions while cultivating oyster mushrooms by setting the indoor temperature of the cultivation room to 10°C, 15°C, 20°C, 25°C, and 30°C. The surveys were conducted in April and May, respectively. Airborne bacterial concentrations were distributed in the range of 1.61 × 102 ~ 3.67 × 102 CFU/m3 in April and 5.47 × 102 ~ 7 × 103 CFU/ m3 in May. In May, the indoor air quality maintenance standard (8.0 × 102 CFU/m3) was exceeded in the 10°C, 20°C, and 25°C cultivation rooms. Bacterial concentrations increased significantly in May compared to April. Bacterial concentrations were different between the cultivation rooms at different temperatures. The difference was more pronounced in May than in April. A total of 15 genera and 20 species were isolated from the indoor air of the oyster mushroom cultivation rooms. Overall, it was most abundant in Actinomycetia. Among the species identified, Agrobacterium radiobacter, Brevundimonas vesicularis, Kocuria palustris, K. salsicia, Lysinibacillus fusiformis, and Sphingobacterium siyangense are known to affect human health. This is the first report of airborne bacteria in cultivation rooms at different temperatures used for oyster mushroom cultivation. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data to understand the indoor environment of thermophilic mushroom cultivation facilities.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of root zone temperatures (RZT) on the germination of bell peppers and tomatoes. Bell peppers and tomatoes had the highest germination rates (85% and 90%, respectively) at 25oC air temperature. Besides, the first germination of bell peppers was shifted by one day ahead. Bell peppers had the highest germination rate of 72,100, and 100%, respectively, when the RZT was adjusted to 30oC at airtemperature of 20, 25, and 30oC, and when the air temperature was adjusted to 35oC, the germination rate was the highest (70%) when the RZT was 15oC. Tomatoes had the highest germination rate at 20oC of the RZT at all atmospheric temperatures. A local cooling and heating system was established to improve the germination rate by controlling the RZT during the low and high temperature period. The optimum RZT for seedlings during the low and high temperature period was investigated.

PURPOSES : In this study, an eco-friendly mastic asphalt backfill material is developed to reduce production and construction temperatures by 40 ℃ compared with those recorded when using conventional hot-mix mastic asphalt backfill materials. METHODS : To reduce the production and construction temperatures, SIS polymer modifiers and gum rosin were selected, and gum rosin-modified SIS materials were applied to the mastic asphalt binder mix design. SIS is less viscous than SBS at high temperatures owing to its thermal characteristics, and incorporating gum rosin into SIS causes the latter to exhibit a loose and soft structure. To improve the performance of the mastic asphalt modified with SIS and gum rosin, three different filler mixes, i.e., 100% PMMA, 50% PMMA and 50% calcium carbonate, and 40% PMMA and 60% calcium carbonate were applied. RESULTS : The rosin-modified SIS reduces the viscosity of the developed mastic asphalt binders. In particular, incorporating 3.7% of gum rosin is beneficial to the mastic binder and does not degrade its low-temperature performance. Similarly, using 100% PMMA as a filler improves the performance but results in workability issues at high temperatures. CONCLUSIONS : Rosin-modified SIS and PMMA are promising alternatives for increasing the workability at high temperatures while maintaining the target performance of grade PG82-22 binders if the appropriate ratio of calcium carbonate is mixed with PMMA and an alternative filler comprising calcium carbonate is used.

국내에서 한시적 식용 곤충으로 등록된 아메리카왕거저리의 사육에 적합한 온도를 규명하고자 온도별 발육특성을 조사하였다. 25°C, 27°C, 30°C, 33°C 등 4개의 온도(9L/15D, 65% R.H., 1330-1800 lux 조건)에서 1-18령까지 발육기간은 30°C가 120.0 ±5.8일로 가장 짧았 고, 그 다음이 33°C (132.6±10.7일), 27°C (136.5±9.2일), 25°C (156.7±7.5일) 순이었다. 30°C는 25°C보다 36.7일나 단축되었다. 33°C의 경 우, 25°C, 27°C, 30°C에 비해서 폐사율이 2.7-3.3배나 높았다. 33°C를 제외하고 온도가 높을수록 발육기간이 단축되는 경향이었으며, 온도별 발육기간은 고도의 통계적 유의성을 나타내었다. 체중의 경우, 30°C가 가장 무거웠고 그 다음은 27°C, 33°C, 25°C 순이었다. 두폭, 체폭, 체장 도 체중과 같은 경향을 보여, 온도 간에 발육의 차이가 확인되었다. 온도와 발육기간, 체중, 체장에 대한 회귀분석 결과, 29-30°C가 가장 적합한 온도이었다. 온도별 전용율은 17령이 43.1%로 가장 높았고, 18령(30.3%), 16령(15.4%), 19령(7.1%), 20령(1.9%)순으로 88.8%가 16령-18령 사이에 전용이 되었다. 전용기간(15-20령)은 27°C와 30°C가 각각 18.8±1.9일, 18.8±2.3일이었고, 그 다음이 33°C (23.0±2.4일), 25°C (23.1±2.9일) 순으로 온도가 낮을수록 늦어지는 경향이었다. 번데기기간 또한 온도가 높을수록 짧아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 암수 간의 번데기 기간은 각각 11.1±2.2일, 11.6±2.4일로 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과들로 볼 때 아메리카왕거저리의 발육에 적합한 온도는 30°C로 판단된다.

In this study, phase-pure titanium dioxide TiO2 ceramics are sintered using standard high-temperature solid-state reaction technique at different temperatures (1,000, 1,100, 1,200, 1,300, 1,400 oC). The effect of sintering temperature on the densification and impedance properties of TiO2 ceramics is investigated. The bulk density and average grain size increase with the increase of sintering temperature. Impedance spectroscopy analysis (complex impedance Z * and complex modulus M *), performed in a broad frequency range from 100 Hz to 10 MHz, indicates that the TiO2 ceramics are dielectrically heterogeneous, consisting of grains and grain boundaries. The complex impedance Z *-plane indicates the resistance of grains of the TiO2 ceramics increases with increasing sintering temperature, while that of grain boundaries develops in the opposing direction. The complex modulus M *-plane shows a grain capacitance that seems to be independent of the sintering temperature, while that of the grain boundaries decreases with increasing sintering temperature. These results suggest that different sintering temperatures have effects on the microstructure, leading to changes in the impedance properties of TiO2 ceramics.

The purpose of this study was to examine the microbiological and physicochemical changes on packaged tofu stored at temperatures of 5, 13, 23, and 30oC, and measure the consumable period from the expiry date to ultimately evaluate the microbiological safety on the extension of the consumable period. From the investigation, the pH value of tofu at each storage temperature (5, 13, and 23oC) showed a slight decrease over the storage period, although there was no significant change. The hardness of packaged tofu decreased more rapidly as temperature and storage time increased and the tofu started to show signs of decomposition at the same time. Analysis on the microbial change of tofu at different storage temperature revealed that the number of general bacteria also increased as the temperature increased. It was further found that packaged tofu takes 25 days at 5oC, 7 days at 13oC, and 1 day at 23oC from the expiry date until the general bacteria count is at least at the early decomposition level which is 10oC log CFU/g. However, no coliform bacteria was detected from tofu after storing at 5, 13 and 23oC. When packaged tofu was stored at 5oC, the L value changed significantly after 26 days, whereas the a and b values showed no significant change during the storage period (P>0.05). When storing tofu at 13oC and 23oC the L value decreased after 8 and 3 days, respectively. However, both a and b values increased (P<0.05).

This study examined the effects of hot deboning and the irradiation of raw pork on the physicochemical properties of pork sausages. Pigs were deboned with a carcass (loin surfaces) temperature of 5℃ (cold) or 15℃ (hot). Each deboned raw pork loins were then irradiated at 0 kGy or 4 kGy. Emulsion-type sausages were prepared from each treated meat with other ingredients including fat, ice, salt, phosphate, and seasoning powder. Then sausage products were analyzed for their physiochemical properties and microbial spoilage up to 10 days. Emulsion stability of sausage products with hot deboning was better than the cold carcass up to three days. Sausage products with irradiated hot carcasses showed less cooking loss than from non-irradiated carcasses on day 10. Hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the sausages decreased significantly with increasing storage time for all sausage products (p<0.05), but the sausage products with irradiated hot carcasses showed a smaller reduction compared with non-irradiated. Lipid oxidation was not significantly different in the sausage products with hot or cold deboning (p>0.05), but the sausage products from non-irradiated meats showed changes from 0.43 to 1.59 (MDA mg/kg of meat) in 10 days (p<0.5). Total plate count and E. coli count were significantly lower in the sausage products from irradiated meat (p<0.05). Finally, irradiating hot deboned meat at 4 kGy can be an excellent alternative for producing raw meat for sausages with promising microbiological and physicochemical properties.

Omija seed oil was extracted from Omija seeds, a by-product of Omija, using an eco-friendly pressed extraction method. Physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities of 12 extracts using different combinations of seed moisture content (5, 7.5, and 10%) and extraction temperature (25, 49, 75, and 100℃) were then investigated. The highest extraction yield was 31.33% at moisture of 5% and temperature of 75℃. The lowest acid value was 4.18±0.25 at moisture of 5% and temperature of 49℃ or moisture of 7.5% and temperature of 25℃. Peroxide value, iodine value, and saponification value were the lowest at 0.64±0.56 meq/kg, 159.38± 6.03, and 57.60±9.40, respectively, at moisture of 5% and temperature of 25°C. The content of total polyphenolics was the highest at 4,413±125 mg TAE/100 g when the moisture content was 10% and the extraction temperature was 25℃. DPPH radical scavenging activities of oil extracts at 20~100 mg/mL were 28.68±7.30~87.65±2.20%. The maximum antioxidant activity and IC50 were 87.65±2.20% and <20 mg/mL, respectively, for extract obtained at moisture of 10% and temperature at 100℃. As a result, the extraction yield, acid value, peroxide value, iodine value, saponification value, and so on were excellent at moisture content of 5% and extraction temperature of 25℃ or 49℃. However, the content of total polyphenolic compounds and antioxidant activity were the highest at moisture of 10% and extraction temperature of 100℃. In conclusion, extracting Omija seed oil from Omija seeds, a by-product of Omija, is effective with a pressed extraction method.

해수에 유출된 유류는 대기와 해수와의 접촉을 통해 다양한 풍화 과정(증발, 확산, 분산, 유화, 용해, 산화, 침전 및 생물분 해 등)을 통해 물리·화학적 변화와 함께 생물학적 분해과정을 겪는다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 풍화작용 중 가장 즉각적이고 빠르며 오염물질의 질량에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 인자라고 알려진 증발(evaporation)에 대한 영향을 확인해보고자 하였다. 휘발유, 등유, 경유 를 대상으로 25 ℃(해수 연평균 온도)와 35℃(적도 부근 온도) 조건에서 유류의 휘발특성을 비교하였다. 이를 위해, 일정 기간마다 채취 한 유류를 전처리하여 GC/MS 분석을 수행하고, 탄화수소의 변화량을 계산하여 비교하였다.

Post-slaughtering storage of pork meat is important to improve the flavor and texture profile. Although irradiation of meat improves the keeping qualities of red meat, less work was done on the effect of quality in irradiated pork leg meat during post-slaughtering storage. Therefore, this study was done to compare low dosages of single beam irradiation treated pork leg meat on eating quality parameters over the nontreated meat stored at different storage temperatures. Freshly slaughter pig carcasses were brought to the irradiation unit for treatment. Pork leg meat was treated at 2 kGy with single beam. Treated (2 kGy) and non-treated pork leg meat were kept in three different temperatures as 2, 10 and 25°C for 1, 3 and 5 days and analyzed for cooking loss, shear force, color and nitrogenous flavor compounds. Cooking loss in day 5 in irradiated pork leg (30.29) was significantly lower than the control (33.27) (p<0.05). Shear force of treated (1.93) and non-treated (1.29) pork leg meat after day 5 had significant difference (p<0.05). “L*” and “b*” values of pork leg meat had significant difference at day 5 compared non treated leg meat (p<0.05) whereas the “a*” value was increased with storage time and temperature. Hypoxanthine level was significantly lower in pork leg meat at day 5 in treated (16.07) and non-treated (24.59) meats at 25°C (p<0.05) whereas the changes in AMP, IMP and Inosine was not significantly difference (p>0.05). As conclusion, post-slaughtering storage and irradiation with single beam of 2 kGy could ensure the meat quality of leg pork at even higher storage temperatures, with cooking loss, tenderness, flavor and the color which will be benefited in the processing industry.
