국가관리 간척지내 원예단지 조성에 필요한 기반기술 중에 하나인, 온실기초 연구가 부족한 실정이며 고사양의 PHC파 일을 대체하기 위한 대안을 검토하고자 하였다. 지반개량공법 중 심층혼합처리공법(DCM) 적용시 허용지지력과 침하량 산정을 통하여 온실기초 공법으로써의 적용가능성을 검토하였다. 새만금간척지 농생명용지 1공구 지반조사를 통해 지반 특성을 파악하고, Terzaghi, Meyerhof, Hansen, Schmertmann 이론식을 적용하여 허용지지력과 침하량을 산정하였다. 직경 800mm를 기준으로, 독립 기초 폭과 길이가 3－6m 이고, 기초 심도 3－7m 조건에서 허용지지력과 침하량을 검토하였다. 온실기초 심도가 얕고 콘크리트 매트 간격이 넓을수록 시공비가 절감되는 측면을 고려하여 독립 기초 폭과 길이가 4m, 기초 심도가 3m인 경우가 가장 적합한 것으로 판단 되었다. 독립 기초 폭과 길이가 4m이고, 기초 심도가 3m인 조 건에 대한 해석 결과로 허용지지력은 169kN/m2, 침하량은 2.73mm로 지지력은 이론식 대비 5.6%의 오차를, 침하량은 62.3%의 오차범위를 나타냈다. 향후, 위 검증된 설계 값을 기준으로 구조 시험과 침하모니터링을 통해 신뢰성을 검증하고자 한다. 그 외 나무말뚝, 헬리컬기초 등 유리온실, 내재해형온 실에 적용 가능한 기초 공법과의 비교 검증을 통해 각각의 장, 단점을 파악하고 PHC 파일의 대체 가능 유무를 검토할 예정이다. 이는 온실 유형별 시공 공법을 선정하는데 필요한 기초 데이터로 제시될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This study was conducted to certify the effect of aqueous extracts from fifty medicinal plants on the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) in vitro. Each aqueous extract was prepared by combining one-part medicinal plants with twenty-parts distilled water at 80°C for 8 h. Among the fifty medicinal plants, Allium sativum L. and Cinnamomum cassia Presl were regarded as an effective anti-hangover substance. Allium sativum L. extract increased ALDH activity more than 2 times compared with ADH activity, enhancing the acetaldehyde degradation. Cinnamomum cassia Presl extract dramatically inhibited ADH activity compared with ALDH activity, thus potently decreasing the acetaldehyde formation. ADH and ALDH activities were proportionally inhibited according to the increased concentration of Cinnamomum cassia Presl extract. The aqueous extract of Cinnamomum cassia Presl at a concentration of 45.33 μg/mL inhibited ADH activity by 52.8% and ALDH activity by 11.0%.

Dry rehydratable film (Petrifilm) method was compared with the standard pate count (SPC) method for estimation of total bacteria in ginseng products. Ginseng products (7 sample) was analyzed for total count by the SPC, and Petrifilm methods, respectively. In the case of ginseng tea, ginseng extract, ginseng extract pill, ginseng powder capsule, and ginseng extract tea,. they showed non-significant values at the 1 level. However, the values of ginseng powder and tablet showed significant at the 1 level. These results generally indicate the suitability of the dry rehydratable film methods as alternatives to the SPC method for estimating of total bacteria in ginseng product samples except to ginseng powder and ginseng tablet.

To restore reclaimed land, it needs to be supplemented with organic matter; this is especially true for Korea, where organic matter constitutes only one-tenth of conventional agricultural soils. The giant Miscanthus, a perennial grass known for its extensive biomass, shows signs of being an excellent source of organic matter for restoring reclaimed land. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate the feasibility of using the giant miscanthus as an organic resource within the context of re-using reclaimed land for agricultural purposes (i.e., potato cultivation), and (ii) determine the optimum fertilization rate for the potatoes while the giant miscanthus is being used as an organic resource. Our results show that after 180 days, giant miscanthus lost 23–47% of its original dry weight, with the extent of the loss dependent on soil salinity. Nutrient concentrations (Mg2+, Na+) continued to increase until the end of the study period. In contrast, potassium (K+) and the ratio of carbon to nitrogen (C/N) decreased until the end of the study period. Specifically, after 180 days, low salinity topsoil treatments had the lowest C/N ratio. In the first year, 150 % of standard N rates were required for the potatoes to achieve maximum productivity; however in the 2nd year, standard rates were sufficient to achieve maximum productivity. Overall, this implies that even though the application of giant miscanthus did eventually improve soil quality, increasing crop yields, N fertilization is still necessary for the best outcomes.

Commercial red ginseng, which was manufactured for the past 6 years, showed a microbial level of 2.010\ulcorner to 7.210\ulcorner CFU/g of total aerobic bacteria and molds. The moisture content of commercial products was ranged from 13.54 to 17.26%, which were higher than that of the product standard, 14%. Irradiation of red ginseng at 2.5 kGy resulted in the reduction of microorganisms contaminated to below the detectable level. Irradiation prevented mold growth on red ginseng during storage at RH 90% and 25; molds were found at the 72nd day after storage in 2.5 kGy-irradiated sample, while 41st day in the nonirradiated control. At this point of time, irradiated samples showed an increased level of moisture content required for mold growth, 22.2% in 2.5 kGy group and 21.5% in control group. Based on the above results, microbiological qualities of red ginseng could be effectively improved by the optimum dose of irradiation, which was expected to secure the quality stability of red ginseng during distribution under the high-moistured conditions.
