토양 오염 정화 방법 중 토양 세척은 널리 활용되는 정화 방법으로, 고농도 중금속 및 일부 유기오염물질을 단기 간에 효과적으로 제거할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 그러나 중금속, 계면활성제, 염류 및 잔류성 유기오염물질이 혼합된 세척수 의 처리는 여전히 큰 과제로 남아 있다. 이러한 문제에 대응하기 위해 분리막 기반 기술이 유망한 대안으로 주목받고 있다. 본 총설에서는 이러한 기술을 압력 구동형, 삼투압 구동형, 열 구동형, 전기화학 구동형으로 구분하여 최근의 연구 동향을 종 합적으로 정리하였다. 또한, 막 오염과 에너지 소비 등의 주요 기술적 문제를 평가하고, 하이브리드 시스템 통합 및 자원회수 기반의 지속가능한 처리 전략을 포함한 향후 발전 방향을 제안하였다.

Purpose This study aimed to develop and evaluate a simulation-based autotransfusion device training program to enhance the clinical performance, performance confidence, and educational satisfaction of post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) nurses. Methods: A single-group pretestposttest study was conducted with 30 PACU nurses. The program, based on the ADDIE model, included orientation, simulation training, and debriefing. Data were collected using validated tools before and after the program and analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test. Results: Clinical performance improved from a median of 30.00 to 43.00 (Z =−4.78, p < .001). Performance confidence increased from 31.00 to 47.50 (Z =−4.71, p < .001), while educational satisfaction rose from 26.00 to 40.00 (Z =−4.73, p < .001). Conclusions: The simulation-based program effectively enhanced the clinical performance, performance confidence, and education satisfaction of PACU nurses. These findings underscore the value of simulation-based training for enhancing nurses’ competence in using complex, high-risk medical devices.

기후변화로 인해 전 세계적으로 수온이 상승하는 추세이며, 그에 따른 수계 내 유기물의 농도 증가에 따라 정수 처리 과정에서의 소독부산물 생성량 역시 상승하고 있다. 이 중 총트리할로메탄(Trihalomethanes, THMs)은 발암물질로 분류되며, 먹는 물 수질 기준이 0.1 mg/L로 설정되어 있다. 소독부산물 생성량 증가와 취수원에서의 수질 문제가 지속적으로 제기됨에 따라 안정적 수돗물 공급을 위한 대책이 필요한 상황에서 본 연구는 여름철 경기도와 경상북도 지역의 수도꼭지에서 THMs 농도를 모니터링 하였다. 또한, 과거 THMs 측정 자료와 더불어 다양한 자료를 비교ㆍ분석하여 THMs 농도 변화의 원인을 파악했다. 그 결과, 조사 지역들의 THMs 생성에는 원수의 종류, 그로 인한 용존유기탄소 (Dissolved organic carbon, DOC), 클로로필-a 인자와 더불어 계절적 요인들 중 기온과 강우량이 종합적으로 기여하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 선형 회귀분석을 통해 용존유기탄소와 THMs간의 상관관계가 높으며 수돗물의 용존유기탄소 농도가 2.7 mg/L 이상일 경우 THMs 농도가 법정 먹는 물 수질 기준을 초과할 가능성이 높다는 결과를 도출하였다. 이를 통해 여름철 강우가 집중되는 시기와 갈수기 THMs 관리를 위해 원수의 유기물 농도를 관리하는 노력이 필수적임을 확인하였다. 해당 결과는 정수장에서의 유기물 농도 관리를 통해 THMs 생성을 억제하는 것이 매우 중요함을 시사하며, 앞으로 먹는 물 수질 기준과 정수장 운영 관리에 용존유기탄소 수질 항목을 추가하는 방안의 검토가 필요하다 판단된다.

Eu-doped SrAl2O4 is a promising thermoluminescent and mechanoluminescent material with high brightness and stability, making it suitable for various luminescent devices. In this study, SrAl2O4:Eu was synthesized using a solid-state reaction method, and the effects of reducing atmosphere and high-temperature synthesis conditions on its luminescence properties were systematically analyzed. The luminescence characteristics of SrAl2O4:Eu were found to be highly sensitive to synthesis temperature, atmosphere, and Eu doping concentration, and optimal conditions were determined. A comparison of SrAl2O4:Eu synthesized at 1,300 °C under air and reducing atmospheres revealed that the reducing atmosphere plays a critical role in stabilizing Eu2+ ions, forming a single-phase SrAl2O4, and establishing luminescence centers. Notably, SrAl2O4:Eu synthesized at 1,600 °C in a reducing atmosphere achieved a photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 43 % and a maximum luminance of 2,030 Cd/m2, showing significant improvement in luminescence efficiency compared to samples synthesized at 1,300 °C. When Eu doping concentrations were adjusted from 1 % to 20 %, the highest luminescence performance was observed at 10 % doping, while excessive doping (20 %) increased non-radiative recombination pathways, and no further improvement in luminescence efficiency was observed. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Photoluminescence (PL) analyses elucidated the effects of synthesis conditions on the structural stability and luminescence properties of SrAl2O4:Eu, and the optimal reducing atmosphere and high-temperature synthesis conditions are proposed. This study provides a synthesis strategy for enhancing the luminescence properties of Eu-doped SrAl2O4 and lays the groundwork for the development of highperformance thermoluminescent and mechanoluminescent materials.

This study investigated the wetland plant community in Mije Reservoir, Gunsan City, during September and October 2024, emphasizing its ecological significance as a primary producer and habitat provider within agricultural reservoir ecosystems. The reservoir was divided into 14 distinct sectors to comprehensively assess spatial plant distribution patterns. Aquatic plants were sampled using collection anchors deployed at the water’s edge, while hygrophytes and emergent macrophytes were surveyed along transects extending from the water’s edge to the embankment. A total of 192 vascular plant species were identified, of which 73 were classified as wetland plant species, encompassing diverse life forms: 36 hygrophytes, 17 emergent macrophytes, 6 floating-leaf species, 3 free-floating species, and 11 submerged species. Notably, the survey documented the presence of two endangered species, Euryale ferox and Cicuta virosa, alongside eight invasive alien plant species. A comparative analysis with a prior survey conducted in 2008 revealed a substantial increase of 54 wetland plant species. Currently, Mije Reservoir is subject to intensive aquatic plant removal management due to observed excessive proliferation and cyanobacterial bloom. However, the presence of endangered species underscores the critical need for a more nuanced reservoir vegetation management strategy that integrates the spatial distribution and conservation status of these ecologically important wetland plants.

Cool-season grasses are currently widely used in South Korea, but their productivity and quality may decline due to global warming associated with climate change. Warm-season grasses have shown greater adaptability to heat stress and drought conditions, making them potential alternatives for summer pasture establishment in central and southern Korea. This study aimed to compare the growth characteristics, productivity, and forage value of warm-season grasses bermudagrass and crabgrass for pasture establishment in the central region of South Korea. The experiment was conducted from May 2023 to October 2024 at the National Institute of Animal Science, Cheonan, South Korea. Crabgrass exhibited superior initial establishment and faster growth rates, whereas bermudagrass had poor initial growth, placing it at a competitive disadvantage against weeds. However, after the first cutting, bermudagrass successfully established itself and maintained a stable botanical composition. The annual dry matter productivity of crabgrass (8,586 kg/ha in 2023 and 12,013 kg/ha in 2024) was 32.62% and 40.18% higher, respectively, than that of bermudagrass (5,785 kg/ha in 2023 and 8,570 kg/ha in 2024). In forage value, crabgrass tended to show higher feed value at the initial harvest, while bermudagrass showed higher quality at the later harvests. In conclusion, these results suggest that both crabgrass and bermudagrass have potential for pasture establishment, with carbgrass being more suitable for short-term due to its rapid growth and high productivity, and bermudagrass being more appropriate for long-term due to its stable productivity in regions where overwintering in possible.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the environmental awareness and health impact of respiratory diseases among residents in the exposure area (Banwoldong) and the control area. Additionally, it sought to identify the correlation between environmental factors in the exposure area and their effects on health. Methods: This study utilized a 2021 survey of 20 residents to assess environmental awareness using a 5-point Likert scale. The measurement of indoor particulate matter (PM10, PM2.5), temperature, and humidity was conducted using a direct-reading laser light scattering device, the DT-9881M (SANE Cal. Co., Ltd., Korea). Additionally, a cohort analysis was conducted using National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) data (2002~2022) to evaluate the onset of chronic disease, focusing on residency and diagnostic records. Results: In the environmental awareness assessment, women showed a statistically significantly higher level of awareness than men regarding water pollution (p=0.0039) and soil pollution (p=0.007). Also, the incidence of respiratory diseases and asthma was statistically significantly higher in the exposure area than in the control area (p<0.0001). Conclusion: This study found significantly higher rates of respiratory diseases in the exposure area compared to the control area. Long-term exposure (≥5 years) to environmental factors in the exposure area was found to be associated with a greater health impact. This suggests a strong link between environmental factors and respiratory diseases. The results emphasize the need for region-specific environmental policies to address pollution-related health disparities.

이 연구를 통해 우리나라에서 복원 중인 멸종위기종인 반달가슴곰(Ursus thibetanus ussuricus)의 식별을 위한 새로운 분자 marker 체계를 개발하였다. 전장 유전체 서열 정보를 사용하여, 20개의 새로운 미세부수체(Microsatellite, MS) marker가 다중 중합효소연쇄반응(PCR)을 기반으로 하는 유전자형 분석을 통해 개발되었다. 개발된 MS marker 20종의 대립유전자 수는 3개에서 10개였으며, 평균 대립유전자 수는 6.05개였다. 관측 이형접합도(Hobs), 기대 이형접합도(Hexp), 다형정보량(PIC)의 평균은 각각 0.683, 0.715, 0.658로 나타났다. Fis 값은 –0.385에서 0.438의 범위에 있었고, 평균은 0.052였다. 무작위 교배(PIrandom), 반형매 교배(PIhalf-sib), 전형매 교배(PIfull-sib)에서의 동일개체출현율은 각각 1.58×10-18, 2.79×10-14, 4.75×10-8를 나타내었다. 이 연구의 결과는 새로운 MS marker 체계가 높은 유전적 다양성과 낮은 PI 수치를 가지고 있어, 야생에서 출현하고 있는 반달가슴곰들을 식별하거나 새끼 곰의 부모 추적에 유용하게 사용될 것으로 생각된다. 이 분자 marker 체계는 한국에서 복원 중인 반달가슴곰 개체군의 관리와 유전적 다양성 증진에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

To understand effects of the compositions of marine macrobenthic communities on carbon storage in subtidal rocky habitat, a diving survey was conducted at Aewol and Biyangdo stations in the northwestern regions of Jeju Island in the summer of 2023. Cluster analysis revealed no significant differences in community composition between the two stations. The mean biomass of the dominant species was Cnidaria (2,047.4 gwwt m-2) of macroinvertebrate, followed by Rhodophyta (745.4 gwwt m-2) of seaweed in studied areas. According to similarity percentage analysis, Alveopora japonica and Ecklonia cava were major contributors to the communities in Aewol, whereas diverse marine organisms, including these two species, contributed to the community in Biyangdo. The estimated mean carbon storage by benthic communities derived from their carbon contents in surveyed areas was 202.7 gC m-2, with variations reflecting differences in community compositions. The biomass of Cnidaria, dominated by A. japonica, showed a positive correlation with carbon storage, whereas the biomass of Rhodophyta, primarily composed of coralline algae, showed a negative correlation. These variations in carbon storage among marine communities may result from species-specific carbon assimilation patterns, survival strategies, marine carbon cycling, and intra-community interactions such as competition and feeding.

Along with the increase in the number of vehicles in circulation, the indoor air quality in automobiles is attracting attention as another possible health concern. However compared to data regarding indoor air quality in other spaces, there are insufficient data on indoor air quality in automobiles. In addition, there is no standard for the evaluation method. In this study, the change in the concentration of particulate matter in the vehicle while driving under real road conditions was analyzed in order to use it as basic data for a method to evaluate vehicle indoor air quality. Through the selection of measurement target materials and test vehicles and the preparation of test methodologies, evaluation was performed on vehicle, route, and HVAC modes. The concentration of particulate matter in the vehicle was the lowest in the RC (In-vehicle recirculation) condition, and it was confirmed that it decreased with time. The highest average concentration was confirmed in the OA (Outside air ventilation) condition, and the concentration change according to the changing HVAC mode was observed in the Auto condition. The concentration of pollutants inside the vehicle showed a significant correlation with factors such as season, external concentration, and HVAC conditions, along with a weak correlation to powertrain type. The results of this study can be used as basic data for developing methods for evaluating vehicle interior air quality in future work.

Processing of medicinal plants and mushrooms plays a crucial role in oriental medicine. This study investigated the antioxidant potency and chemical composition of antler-shaped Ganoderma lucidumprocessed under different heating temperatures (120 to 180 °C) and times (10 to 20 minutes). Processed samples were analyzed for their antioxidant activities, including total phenol content, DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging capacity, NO assay, ROS scavenging capacity, and chemical composition changes. Antioxidant potency was highest with processing at 180 °C for 10 min and at 210 °C for 10 min. This enhanced activity is likely attributed to changes in compound functional groups due to heat processing, which in turn influences antioxidant activity. In contrast to antioxidant potency, chemical components, including ganoderic acid D, ganodermanonitriol, and ergosterol, showed decreasing trends with increasing temperature and time.

본 연구에서는 20대 대학생들을 대상으로 사회부과 완벽주의와 우울 간의 관계에서 정서적 탈진의 매개효과를 검증하였고, 이에 더하여 성별에 의한 조절효과를 확인하였다. 총 602명의 자료를 분석한 결과, 사회부과 완벽주의 성향이 정서적 탈진 및 우울을 각각 유의하게 예측하였고, 정서적 탈진 역시 우울 정도를 예측하였다. 이어서, 사회부과 완벽주의 성향이 우울을 예측하는 데 있어 정서적 탈진의 매개효과가 유의한 것으로 검증되었고, 여기에 성별 에 의한 조절효과도 있는 것으로 확인되었다. 즉, 사회부과 완벽주의와 우울의 관계에서 정서적 탈진이 매개할 때 남성보다 여성에게서 더 높은 우울 수준이 관찰되었다. 본 연구는 대학생의 주요 과제인 학업의 부담에 따라 나타날 수 있는 정서적 탈진 및 정신건강과 관련된 연구모형의 제시와 검증을 수행하였고, 그에 따른 개입 및 개선 방안의 필요성을 제안하였다.
