토양중 99Tc의 배경준위를 측정할 수 있는 분석법을 수립하고 한국 토양중의 99Tc농도를 비교 검토하였다. 토양중의 99Tc을 분리 정제하기 위해서 선택성 TEVA수지를 사용하였다. 화학분리 회수율을 계산하기 위해 99Mo/99mTc 생성기에서 생산한 99mTc를 추적자로 사용하고 그 문제점을 검토하였다. 99mTc추적자를 사용하여 계산한 화학분리 회수율은 70% 이상이 가능하였다. 순수 분리된 99Tc의 측정을 위한 유도결합프라스마 질량분석기(ICP-MS)의 최적 조건을 수립하였다. 이 분석법에 의한 토양의 최소검출하한치(MDA)는 15mBq/kg-dry 이었다. 제주와 고리 주변 토양 시료의 99Tc 농도는 33.73 - 89.16 mBq/kg-dry 였다. 이러한 수치는 다른 보고치에 비하여 낮은 편이며 대기권 핵실험에서 기인한 낙진의 영향으로 추정된다.

Root-lesion nematode (Pratylenchus vulnus) and pin nematode (Paratylenchus sp.) were detected with high population density at the spray chrysanthemum greenhouse in Gumi, Gyeongbuk. The average density of P. vulnus and Paratylenchus sp. was 667 and 716 nematodes per 100 g soil and P. vulnus density were distributed 87% to the depth of 0~30 ㎝ in greenhouse. When spray chrysanthemum cv Chopin, was transplanted in September 2004 in greenhouse, P. vulnus were 854 nematodes/100 g soil in planting and increased 14,985 nematodes/100 g soils and 1g root after 10 weeks in harvest. Shoot weight and shoot height of spray chrysanthemum decreased 24.8% and 8.0% compared with non-infested P. vulnus after 10 weeks in greenhouse.

본 연구는 저광 조사 저온 저장 중 광합성유효방사(PAR)내의 각 파장이 토마토 묘의 형태와 엽색 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시되었다. 10±0.5℃의 온도와 피크 파장이 각각 405, 450, 505, 545, 600, 645, 680, 700nm의 발광다이오드로부터 조사된 3μmol m-2s-1의 광합성유효광량 자속밀도 조건에서 토마토 접목묘를 28일간 저장하였다. 405, 450, 505nm의 파장에서 저장된 묘의 잎은 다른 파장에서 저장된 잎에 비해 직립하는 경향을 보였으며, 특히 450과 505nm 파장에서 저장된 묘의 경우 엽축 생장이 억제되면서 콤팩트한 형태를 보였다. 파장의 변화에 따른 엽색의 규칙적인 변화는 저장 전후를 비교하여 관찰되지 않았으나, 405와 700nm 파장에서 저장된 묘는 엷은 녹색을 나타내었다. 저광 조사 저온 저장 중, 450~545nm 영역의 광조사는 토마토 묘의 직립을 유도하여 외관상 건강한 묘로 인정 받는데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes media coverage alternatives from analysing the 18th general election case in 2008. The following five options are vital to achieving effective media coverage which will make voters more active in politics. First, a more diverse and substantial coverage will make voters more interested in politics and lead them to voting. Second, broadcasting should cover election news for policy information and verification. Third, news about the public opinion poll and predicting successful candidate should be scientific. Fourth, the candidate debate broadcasting must be revised to provide voters with more information and to give penalty to the influential candidates if they reject to participate in the debate. Lastly, free expression in the internet is needed to increase peoples' political activity and voting intention.

In order to develop a protective carrier scaffolder for the external usage of medical and hygienic materials, three essential protective elements existing in nature, i.e., algin, cellulose, and calcium phosphate apatite, were investigated. The algin is a main skeletal component of sea weeds, the cellulose is of vegetables, and the calcium phosphate apatite is of vertebral animals. In the present study we select the agarose which is a derivative from algin, the cellulose fiber obtained from skin of sea squirt, calcium oxide purified from shell powder, and tricalcium phosphate apatite purchased commercially. Consequently, the agarose-cellulose hybrid was made by the hydrogen bonds intermediating the calcium phosphate apatite between agarose and cellulose molecules. As the calcium phosphate apatite is formed by the addition of calcium hydroxide into tricalcium phosphate solution, we used calcium oxide to accelerate the hybridization between the agarose and calcium phosphate apatite and also between the cellulose and calcium phosphate apatite. In the phase contrast microscopic observation the agarose-cellulose hybrid showed more compact matrix structure than the mixture of agarose and cellulose. The agarose-cellulose hybrid showed increased storage modulus but decreased loss modulus in Rheometer test compared to those of the other materials tested in this study, representing that the agarose-cellulose hybrid has the highest elasticity among them and similar water capacity to agarose. The agarose-cellulose hybrid showed the strongest antimicrobial effect in bacteria killing assay than the other materials, and also it showed a potent blood clotting effect but no immunological hypersensitivity on the human skin. From the above results we presumed that the nobel material, agarose-cellulose hybrid, is a compact scaffolding matrix which has proper elasticity, high capacity to hold substrates, and antimicrobial and blood clotting property potent enough to carry the bio-medical and hygienic materials for external treatment safely.

Nano-sized tungsten disulfide () powders were synthesized by chemical vapor condensation (CVC) process using tungsten carbonyl () as precursor and vaporized pure sulfur. Prior to the synthesis of tungsten disulfide nanoparticles, the pure tungsten nanoparticles were produced by same route to define the optimum synthesis parameters, which were then successfully applied to synthesize tungsten disulfide. The influence of experimental parameters on the phase and chemical composition as well as mean size of the particles for the produced pure tungsten and tungsten disulfide nanoparticles, were investigated
