In nine commercial watermelon cultivars, the effects of osmotic seed priming were evaluated for seed viability and seedling growth at different germination temperatures and field conditions. Generally, primed seeds showed improved germination rate and reduced time for emergence at different germination temperatures, as compared to untreated seeds. In particular, priming effect on seed germination was significantly high at 15℃, which is an environment normally resulting in poor germination. Depending on the watermelon cultivar, germination rate under low temperature (15℃) was improved by up to 15~66% in primed seeds, as compared to untreated seeds. However, priming effect on germination was gradually reduced as the temperature reached to its optimum level for seed germination. Seed priming tended to improve the viability, fresh weight, and dry weight of watermelon seedlings, but its effect on seedling stage was not large, as compared to untreated seeds. Primed watermelon seeds showed improved emergence rate and facilitated germination in the field, but their seedling growth after 30 days from germination was not significantly affected. Our results indicated that seed priming can greatly improve the seed germination at poor temperature conditions in the watermelon.

This paper presents an investigation of the mechanical properties on alkali-activated binders immersed in sea water. The alkali-activated binders were synthesized using blended binder(Class F fly ash; FA and ground granulated blast furnace slag; GGBFS) and alkali activator(sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate). Binders were prepared by mixing the FA and GGBFS in different blend ratios of 6:4, 7:3 and 8:2. The alkali activators were used 5wt% of blended binder, respectively. Calcium carbonate was used as an chemical additive. The compressive strength and absorptiion were measured at the age of 3, 7 and 28 days, and the XRD and SEM tests were performed at the age of 28 days.

This study examined radiation damage and the optimal gamma-ray dose for mutation breeding in oat (Avena sativa L. cv. Samhan). The seed germination rate decreased as the dose increased over 500 Gy. The median lethal dose (LD50) was approximately 392 Gy. The median reduction dose (RD50) for plant height, tiller number, root length, and flash weight was 411, 403, 394, and 411 Gy, respectively. The optimal dose of gamma irradiation for inducing oat mutation appears to be in the range 300-400 Gy. We performed the comet assay to observe nuclear DNA damage induced by gamma-ray irradiation. This assay showed a clear difference with gamma-ray treatments. DNA damage increased temporarily 7 days after treatment depending on the dose, while no significant difference was identified in response to 300 Gy 30 days after the gamma-ray treatments. The growth characteristics of the M2 generation decreased as the dose increased over 400 Gy.

Background : Irregular meals and insufficient exercise are major modern lifestyle-related risk factors for constipation. This study aimed to examine the effects of the aqueous extract of Dendrobium speciosum var. (DM) on the improvement of intestinal function and prevention of constipation in rats. Methods and Results : Constipation in rat was induced by loperamide (4 ㎎/㎏) injection for 5 days and rats were randomly assigned to the following groups: normal control rats (NOR), constipated rats (LOP induced) and constipated rats supplemented with dulcolax-S (POS), DMSG, 100 ㎎/㎏ (DMSG-100), 300 ㎎/㎏ (DMSG-300) and 500 ㎎/㎏ (DMSG-500). The DMSG groups showed increments in the frequency and amount of stools compared to the LOP group. Loperamide treatment markedly reduced the water content of feces, whereas DMSG administration significantly increased fecal water contents. Moreover, DMSG improved intestinal transit speed in constipated-rats. Alcian blue staining revealed increased mucus production by crypt cells and mucus contents in feces and the mucosal surface. Conclusions : In summary, DM extraction significantly improves intestinal function in rats, which indicates the effectiveness of this extract in the prevention and treatment of constipation.

Regional air quality regulation is a system that allows the Minister of Environment to designate the local area as air quality control region where the concentrations of air pollutants are exceeding the environmental standards, and the local governments that administrate the regulated area have to develop and practise a plan for reducing the air pollutants. From the data observed yearly by the monitoring stations in 8 provincial cities with more than 0.5 million people was judged the compliance with air quality standards in each municipality for the period of 2003 to 2013. As the result of investigation on air pollutants concentrations of each city, it was found that there was no station that exceeds the ambient air quality standards of CO, SO2 and 24-hour NO2. But all municipalities exceeded the standards of 8-hour O3, annual and 24-hour PM10, and therefore 8 municipalities can be designated to be under the local air regulation. For the annual NO2 were the monitoring sites necessary requirements for designation of the air quality regulation region in Cheongju, Cheonan, Daejeon and Gwangju area. Incase of 1-hour O3, some of stations in Pohang, Cheongju, Cheonan and Changwon area were over the designation standards for the air quality control region.

본 논문에서는 UHPC 바닥판과 강재 거더를 이용하여 합성보를 구성할 때, UHPC 바닥판의 높은 강도와 강성으로 인하여 합성보 구성 시에 강재 거더의 상부 플랜지를 없앤 역T형 거더를 적용하고자 하였다. 그러나 현재까지 강재 복부에 설치되는 전단연결재에 대한 거동, 역T형 강거더 합성보의 휨거동 특성 등은 실험 및 이론적으로 평가된 적이 거의 없는 실정이다. 이를 위하여 UHPC 압축강도, 전단연결재 간격 및 바닥판 두께 등을 변수로 하는 역T형 거더와 UHPC바닥판 합성보 16개의 휨거동 실험결과를 근간으로 하여 실험결과와 UHPC의 인장연화 거동을 고려한 재료모델 해석결과를 비교하였다. 역해석에 의한 인장연화곡선에서 UHPC의 인장강도는 6.57 MPa(120MPa의 경우) 및 9.57 MPa(150MPa의 경우)를 나타내고 있으며, 전단연결재 간격이 좁을수록 실험결과와 해석결과가 명확하게 근접하는 겻으로 나타났으며, 바닥 판 두께가 두꺼우며 UHPC 압축강도가 작을수록 동일한 경향이나, 이 영향은 다소 작은 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 실험결과와 해석결과를 종합 적으로 비교하면, UHPC 합성보의 실험결과와 해석결과는 비교적 잘 일치하고 있으므로 재료 실험으로부터 산정된 인장연화곡선은 UHPC의 실제 거동을 합리적으로 반영한다고 판단된다.

This study was conducted to investigate days after anthesis (DAA) and fruit after-ripening period (FAP) for seed-harvesting of high quality watermelon seeds. Fruit weight and number of seed per fruit increased according to DAA, while those did not significant about FAP. Ratio of cotyledon at whole seed was higher about 2 to 4% compared to seed coat irrespective of DAA and FAP. Germinability of watermelon was not a significant effect by DAA, however, it had differences by FAP. Percent of germination (PB) was below 50%, when 30 days maturated fruits after anthesis was omitted ripening, while PB was increased to 92% by ripening. In addition, seeds at DAA 40 and FAP 20 were higher general seedling vigors (hypocotyl length, diameter etc.) in BP test. Results indicated that considering seed productivity, it had maximized seed viability at DAA 40 and FAP 20.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of fruit set internode on the germination of watermelon seeds. Generally fruits setted in higher than 20 internode were high percent of germination, fruit setted in low internode(5-10) is low. The higher fruit-set internode, fruit weight was significantly increased, but 1,000 seed weight was decreased the more fruit set internode. However number of seed was about 300 seeds irrespective of fruit-set internode. Investigating viability of seed by BP test, general percent germination was recorded highest at 5 flower cluster above 20 internode of fruit-set internode. In contrast, condition of fruit setted on 3, 4, 6 flower cluster were high percent of germination, regarded as unnormal germination not to be as normal seedling by 2~3%. Seed harvested at 5 flower-cluster had high viability on hypocotyl height and diameter of seedling through early growth test, but were not significant. Therefore 5 flower-cluster was optimum fruit-set internode to obtain high-quality seed.

본 연구에서는 마테(Ilex paraguariensis)로부터 50% 에탄올 추출물, 에틸아세테이트 분획물 및 아글리 콘 분획물을 제조하였고 이들 추출물/분획물에 대하여 항산화능을 평가하였다. 추출물 및 분획물의 수율은 건조 분말 당 각각 32.0, 4.48 및 0.82%를 나타냈다. 1,1-Phenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) 라디칼 시험법을 이용한 자유 라디칼 소거 활성과 루미놀 발광법을 이용한 총 항산화능을 평가하였다. 50% 에탄올 추출물, 에틸 아세테이트 분획물 및 아글리콘 분획물의 라디칼 소거활성(FSC50)은 각각 8.83, 5.84 및 6.05 μg/mL이었다. 추출물 및 분획물의 총항산화능(OSC50)은 모든 추출물이 비교 대조군으로 사용한 L-ascorbic acid (1.72 μg/mL)과 유사한 항산화능을 나타냈으며. 50% 에탄올 추출물의 경우 OSC50은 1.03 μg/mL로 활성이 가장 큰 것으로 평가되었다. 1O2로 유도된 세포 손상에 대한 보호 효과 실험에서 모든 추출물은 10 μg/mL 농도에서 비 교 대조군인 (+)-α-tocopherol과 유의적으로 큰 세포 보호 활성(τ50)을 나타내었다. 특히 아글리콘 분획물 은 10 및 50 μg/mL 농도에서의 세포 보호 효과가 (+)-α-tocopherol 보다 약 5배나 크게 나타났다. 에틸아 세테이트 분획과 아글리콘 분획의 tyrosinase에 대한 저해 효과는 미백제로 알려진 알부틴과 유사하였다. 이상 의 결과들은 마테 추출물이 항산화 및 항노화 화장품 원료로서 응용 가능성이 있음을 시사한다.

국내 고형연료제품 제조시설은 대부분 비닐, 플라스틱 등이 주 성분인 사업장폐기물을 대상으로 운영되어왔지만, 최근 생활폐기물을 대상으로 고형연료제품을 생산하는 시설이 증가하고 있다. 생활폐기물은 사업장폐기물에 비해 물리적 조성이 불균일하고 계절별, 지역별 특성에 따라 그 성상이 다양하게 나타나기 때문에 다양한 전처리 단위공정을 통해 불연물을 최소화하고 양질의 연료를 생산하기 위한 노력을 필요로 한다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 관점에서 설치된 다양한 단위공정 중 파봉설비(1차 파쇄), 파쇄설비(2차 파쇄), 자력선별장치, 풍력선별장치에 대해 폐기물의 투입부하, 컨베이어 이송에 의한 투입속도 및 두께, 풍량 등의 변수가 단위공정에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구를 진행하고 이를 최적화하기 위한 방안을 제안하였다. 파봉설비의 경우 그 목적이 다양한 크기의 봉투체로 반입되는 폐기물의 파봉에 있는데 투입 시 폐기물의 부하량이 너무 적을 경우 단위투입량 당 파봉되지 않은 폐기물의 비율이 증가하는 것으로 확인되었으며, 입자의 크기를 작고 균일하게 하기 위한 2차 파쇄설비도 파봉설비와 마찬가지로 부하가 낮을 경우 설치목적에 부합하는 결과를 달성하기가 어려운 것으로 확인되었다. 자력선별장치는 철류 불연물을 분리하기 위한 목적으로 설치한 것인데 폐기물 이송 컨베이어의 속도가 느리고 폐기물의 두께(투입량)가 얇게 투입될수록 선별효율이 높아지는 것으로 나타났다. 풍력선별장치는 비중이 큰 폐기물을 선별하기 위한 공정인데, 일반적으로 비중이 크다는 것은 함수율이 높거나 불연물일 가능성이 높기 때문이며 결국 불연물을 분리하여 가연물의 비율을 높이면서 가연물을 최대한 회수하기 위한 목적으로 설치된 것이다. 풍력선별장치는 풍량과 폐기물 두께(투입량)에 따른 특성을 파악하기 위한 실험을 진행하였고, 풍량이 크고 투입폐기물의 두께가 얇게 투입될 수 있도록 운전하는 것이 가연물의 비율을 최대한 높일 수 있는 방법인 것으로 확인되었다. 하지만, 이러한 결과들은 해당 지역의 폐기물특성(비중, 함수율, 분리배출정도 등)에 따라 차이가 있을 수 있기 때문에 사전에 폐기물의 특성을 충분히 파악한 후에 적용해야 할 것이다.

To produce high quality watermelon, three tetraploid watermelon breeding lines (‘SA03-1’, ‘SA06-1’ and ‘SB01-1’) were developed by treatment with different chromosome doubling reagents. To identify the optimal tetraploid inductive conditions, the three watermelon breeding lines were selected by counting the number of doubled chloroplasts in guard cells. Tetraploid induction rates differed depending on the genotypes and treatment with doubling reagents. However, the highest induction rate occurred with 1.0% colchicine (82.2%). These putative tetraploid lines were re-confirmed for ploidy using flow cytometric analysis and chromosome counting. The internode length of the tetraploid breeding lines was different when the leaf size was larger in all three tetraploid lines compared to their diploids. The fruit weight of the tetraploid fruits for ‘SA03-1’ and ‘SB01-1’ was lower than for their diploid, and the rind thickness and total sugar content (°Brix) of tetraploid SB01-1 were significantly different from those of its diploid. Tetraploid lines were sterile, yielded a lower number of seeds per fruit for ‘SA03-1’ (21), ‘SA06-1’ (62), and ‘SB01-1’ (34.7), and the seeds were larger and thicker than those of their diploids. These tetraploid breeding results will be useful for breeding new seedless watermelon cultivars.

본 연구는 지난 8년간의 수석교사제에 학계의 논의와 이슈 동향 등을 파악하여 향후 건설적 인 수석교사제의 추진을 위한 시사점을 도출해 보고자 하는 의도를 가지고 수행되었다. 이를 위해 수석교사제 시범운영을 시작한 2008년도부터 2014년도까지 국내 학술지에 게재된 연구 논문들을 내용분석법을 통하여 분석하였다. 논문의 전문성과 질적 수준을 고려하여 논문 검색 기준을 한국학술지인용색인(KCI) 등재 및 등재후보지로 한정하였으며, 총 42편을 연구대상으 로 선정 하였다. 시기별 분석결과 수석교사제 법제화 후인 2012년 이후 수석교사제와 관련된 연구가 급증하였다. 또한 수석교사제와 관련된 연구들은 다양한 연구 방법들을 활용하였으며, 그 중 양적연구방법(조사연구)이 가장 많은 비중을 차지하였다. 수석교사제에 대한 연구주제는 크게 개인차원, 학교차원, 그리고 정책차원으로 구분 가능하였다. 전반적으로 개인차원의 연구 주제가 수적으로 우세하였으며, 학교차원, 정책차원 순으로 뒤를 이었다. 또한 법제화 이전에 는 주로 개인차원과 학교차원의 연구가 많이 수행되었으나 법제화 이후에는 정책차원의 연구 가 많이 발표되었다. 연구대상으로는 수석교사들에 대한 연구가 과반이었으며, 수석교사와 일 반교원 모두에 대하여 시행한 연구가 그 뒤를 따랐다. 또한 학교급에 따른 연구동향을 분석한 결과 중등학교 단위의 수석교사제와 관련된 연구가 미비하였다.
