Background : Pectin lyase-modified red ginseng extract (GS-E3D) is a newly developed ginsenoside Rd-enriched ginseng extract. This study was designed to investigate the acute oral and dermal toxicity of GS-E3D in rat. Methods and Results : The acute oral toxic effects of GS-E3D in female SD rats were examined at dosages of 300 ㎎/㎏ and 2,000 ㎎/㎏. In acute dermal toxicity study, 500, 1,000 and 2,000 ㎎/㎏ of GS-E3D were applied onto the shaved skin of male and female SD rats. The weights of rats were recorded at 0, 1, 3, 7, and 14 days and clinical observation were checked once a day for a period of 14 days. All rats were scarified on 14th day and complete gross examination was conducted to detect any gross change of organs after necropsy. GS-E3D did not produce orally or dermally treatment-related clinical signs of toxicity or mortality in all rats during the 14-day observation period. The oral and dermal LD50 values of GS-E3D were over 2,000 ㎎/㎏ in rat. The oral and dermal administration of GS-E3D revealed no significant change in body weight and gross pathology examination compared to control group. Conclusion : These results indicate that GS-E3D can be used as a food and cosmetic materials without critically adverse effect.

Structural behavior of blast-resistant door composed with steel plate and inner con’c core was analyzed according to composite and non-composite condition. The results showed that maximum and permanent deflection decrease in the case of composite condition. And as the impact on blast-resistant door increases and radical deformation occurs, there is not much difference in the deflection of the door.

In this study the design sensitivity of blast-resistant door composed with steel plate and inner RC core was analyzed according to increased steel ratio of plate and rebar. The results showed that compressive failure of inner concrete decreased rapidly in the case of specific steel ratio, and that the overall structural performance such as deflection did not changed substantially.

이 논문은 압축강도 수준(100, 140, 180 MPa급)에 따른 HPFRCC의 동적충격 인장강도를 평가하였다. 먼저 100, 140, 180 MPa급 HPFRCC의 압축응력-변형률 관계를 분석한 결과 압축강도는 각각 112, 150, 202 MPa로 나타났으며, 압축강도가 높아짐에 따라 탄성계수도 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 100, 140, 180 MPa급 HPFRCC의 정적 인장강도는 각각 10.7, 11.5, 16.5 MPa로 나타났으며, 압축강도가 높아질 수록 인장강도도 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 반면 100 및 140 MPa급 HPFRCC에서의 인장강도 및 에너지 흡수능력은 압축강도 수준에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 이는 시험체의 규격 및 강섬유의 배열에 영향을 받은 것으로 판단된다. HPFRCC의 동적충격 인장강도를 평가한 결과, 변형률 속도가 10-1/s에서 150/s로 증가할수록 모든 HPFRCC의 인장강도와 동적증가계수는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 한편 동일한 범위의 변형률 속도에서 HPFRCC의 압축강도가 낮을수록 인장강도에 대한 DIF가 높게 측정되어 효율적인 측면에서는 100 MPa급 HPFRCC가 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 높은 수준의 인장성능이 요구되는 경우 높은 압축강도를 가지는 HPFRCC를 사용하는 것이 유리하며, 폭발과 같은 고속변형률 속도에서 보다 효율적인 접근을 위해서는 목표 압축강도에 근접한 HPFRCC를 사용하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 판단된다.

In this study, the natural frequencies of long-span truss bridges with LRB were analyzed and compared. As a result of the mode analysis, a similar mode shape was shown irrespective of whether LRB was applied or not. The natural frequency analysis using the measurement data, the natural frequencies of the first to third transverse modes could not be analyzed due to the small dynamic response, and the natural frequency of the fourth vertical mode was analyzed to be similar to the mode analysis results. As a result of comparing the natural frequency of the vertical direction mode of 18 truss bridges in the past, the bridge with LRB was analyzed to have smaller natural frequency than the bridge without LBR.

This study was conducted to develop a predictive model for the growth of Escherichia coli strain RC-4-D isolated from red kohlrabi sprout seeds. We collected E. coli kinetic growth data during red kohlrabi seed sprouting under isothermal conditions (10, 15, 20, 25, and 30°C). Baranyi model was used as a primary order model for growth data. The maximum growth rate (μmax) and lag-phase duration (LPD) for each temperature (except for 10°C LPD) were determined. Three kinds of secondary models (suboptimal Ratkowsky square-root, Huang model, and Arrhenius-type model) were compared to elucidate the influence of temperature on E. coli growth rate. The model performance measures for three secondary models showed that the suboptimal Huang square-root model was more suitable in the accuracy (1.223) and the suboptimal Ratkowsky square-root model was less in the bias (0.999), respectively. Among three secondary order model used in this study, the suboptimal Ratkowsky square-root model showed best fit for the secondary model for describing the effect of temperature. This model can be utilized to predict E. coli behavior in red kohlrabi sprout production and to conduct microbial risk assessments.

In contrast, Gondalbi showed quite earlier bolting time more than 38 days compared with ‘Damogy’ and consequently earlier flowering time more than 26 day. ‘Damogy’ showed similar leaf number (129) per plant compared to ‘Gondalbi’ (130). Furthermore, yield was higher ‘Damogy’ (1,889 g/plant) than in ‘Gondalbi’ (798 g/plant). ‘Damogy’ showed higher leaf thickness (0.71 ㎜) than ‘Gonalbi’ (0.46 ㎜), and consequently showed more hardness in leaf characteristics (28.3 ㎏/㎠) compared with ‘Gondalbi’ (23.0 ㎏/㎠). ‘Damogy’ showed higher resistance in the susceptibility of powdery mildew disease compared to ‘Gondalbi’. ‘Damogy’ variety was registered plant variety protection right as a No. 89 on December 2015.
