A low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste repository contains different types of radionuclides and organic complexing agents. Their chemical interaction in the repository can result in the formation of radionuclide-ligand complexes, leading to their high transport behaviors in the engineered and natural rock barriers. Furthermore, the release of radionuclides from the repository can pose a significant risk to both human health and the environment. This study explores the impact of different experimental conditions on the transport behaviors of 99Tc, 137Cs, and 238U through three types of barrier samples: concrete, sedimentary rock, and granite. To assess the transport behavior of the samples, the geochemical characteristics were determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), Fouriertransform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. The adsorption distribution coefficient (Kd) was used as an indicator of transport behavior, and it was determined in batch systems under different conditions such as solution pH (ranging from 7 to 13), temperature (ranging from 10 to 40°C), and with the presence of organic complexing agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA), and isosaccharinic acid (ISA). A support vector machine (SVM) was used to develop a prediction model for the Kd values. It was found that, regardless of the experimental parameters, 99Tc may migrate easily due to its anionic property. Conversely, 137Cs showed low transport behaviors under all tested conditions. The transport behaviors of 238U were impacted by the order of EDTA > NTA> ISA, particularly with the concrete sample. The SVM models can also be used to predict the Kd values of the radionuclides in the event of an accidental release from the repository.

This study aims to reveal how EA affects BAX and NF-kB involved in cell deaths from global ischemia, and to do this, observes the changes of BAX and NF-kB caused by EA application after transient global ischemia. The experimental method is to give rise to global ischemia and apply EA to 27 SD rats with the particulars of being six-week-old, male, around-300 gram-weighing, and adapted to laboratory environment for more than a week, and divide them into three groups, that is, GV20 EA group(n=9), L14 EA group(n=9), no-treatment GI group(n=9), and then observe their changes of BAX and NF-kB at the time lapse of 6 hours, 9 hours and 12 hours after ischemia, using western blotting. The numerical decrease of BAX expression at the time lapse of 9 hours after EA application, though not statistically significant, was observed in GV20 EA group and L14 EA group, and the NF-kB expression appeared statistically significant decrease in GV20 EA group and L14 EA group, but the expression was higher in the group with EA application. Therefore, EA application at the early phase of global ischemia is considered to affect BAX and NF-kB and play a positive role in decreasing apoptosis and cell deaths by inflammation.

Background : Schizandra chinensis Baillon have five tastes and lately it is using a beverage broadly. Schizandra chinensis is one of the top producing medicinal plant in Korea. Mungyeong of Gyongbuk province produce almost of Schizandra chinensis. Maturity of Schizandra chinensis get 3 years and proliferation of Schizandra chinensis was not a manual. It is needed that a new cultivar has a big fruit and high quality chracteristics using processed food and beverage. Methods and Results : 105 lines of Schizandra chinensis were collected on Mungyeong, Yeongwol, Jinan. It were studied it’ characteristics especially it’s fruit trait. Fruit traits of Schizandra chinensis were researched on fruit length, fruit weight, maturity, number of fruit, male and female ratio, powdery mildew. Fruit length of Schizandra chinensis is relation of fruit weight. It were founded 15 lines of long fruit length. 5 lines were studied high fruit weight and it’s weight were 32 to 41g. Number of fruit has relation with fruit weight and high fruit weight gets many fruits. it’s numer of fruits were 3 to 41. Male and female ratio were very impotant characteristic. High level of female ratio has quantity of fruit. High level of female ratio were founded 2 lines. Finally It was selected 3 good breed lines of Schizandra chinensis. Conclusion : 105 lines of Schizandra chinensis Baillons were collected on Mungyeong, Yeongwol, Jinan. It were founded 15 lines of long fruit length and 5 lines were studied high fruit weight. High level of female ratio were founded 2 lines. 3 good breed lines of Schizandra chinensis were selected.
