본 연구는 축산물 생산 환경에서 오염 가능한 Aspergillus ochraceus와 Rhodotorula mucilaginosa를 저감하기 위하여 자외선과 유기산을 활용하여 그 효과를 구명하였다. 이를 위하여 각각의 균 현탁액(107-108 spores/mL)을 칼 표면에 1 mL 접종하고 37oC에 건조한 후 각각의 처리 조건에 활 용하였다. 먼저 유기산 효과를 구명하기 위하여 아세트산, 젖산, 구연산을 활용하였으며 적정 농도 선정을 위하여 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5%의 농도로 제조하였다. 그 결과 아세트 산의 경우 약 5 log, 젖산은 최대 2 log CFU/cm2 감소하 였으나, 구연산의 경우 1 log 이하로 미미한 수준이었다. 이에 따라 유기산 처리 효과를 더욱 극대화하기 위해 자 외선과의 복합처리를 진행하고자 하였다. 두 균주는 모든 유기산에서 90% 이상 감소하여 초기 균주와 비교하였을 때 유의적인 차이(P<0.05)를 보였으며 특히 4%의 젖산은 자외선(360 mJ/cm2)과 함께 처리하였을 때, 2 log CFU/cm2 이상 감소하였으며 같은 조건에서 아세트산은 5 log CFU/ cm2이상의 저감능을 보였다. 그러나 본 연구에서 사용한 4% 농도의 아세트산으로 제조할 경우 이취가 매우 심하여 작업자가 생산환경에서 사용하기에 어려움이 있다. 이 에 따라서 현장에 적용하기 위한 유기산과 자외선 최적 처리 조건은 4% 젖산 용액에 1분간 침지한 후 자외선을 20분 가량(360 mJ/cm2) 살균 처리하는 방법으로 선정하였 다. 최종적으로 유기산 세척 및 자외선 처리가 된 칼로 돼 지고기 절단 작업을 수행하였을 때, 현장 오염 수준의 진 균류 농도에서 작업 후 돼지고기 표면으로 이행되는 오염 량은 모두 불검출 되었다. 본 연구를 통하여 실험실 규모 뿐만 아니라 최종적으로 현장에서 살균된 도구를 활용하 여 작업 시 고기 표면까지 이행되는 교차오염을 방지할 수 있는 것으로 사료된다.

Wolsong Unit 1 nuclear power plant, which was permanently shut down in 2019, has a 678 MWe calandria vessel of the CANDU-6 type pressurized heavy-water reactor model. The calandria inside the vault is a horizontal cylindrical vessel made of stainless steel with a length of 7.8 m and a thickness of 28.6 mm. For the entire dismantling processes of a nuclear power plant, dismantling works cannot be performed using only one cutting technology and method, and when performing dismantling of a calandria vessel, various systems and components can be used for cutting and dismantling. The calandria vessel is located in a concrete compartment called a vault, and in order to safely dismantle the calandria vessel, the spread of radioactive contaminants from inside of the vault to the outside must be prevented. We designed dismantling processes using the laser cutting method to dismantle the calandria vessel and end shields. We must minimize the risk of internal radiation exposure to workers from aerosols derived from the thermal cutting processes. Therefore, we need a way to prevent secondary contamination from spreading outside the vault and within the reactor building. The path through which radioactive contaminants move is that the flying airborne products generated during the cutting process inside the vault where the calandria is located do not stay in place but spread outward through the opening of the RM-Deck structure at the top. Therefore, facilities or devices are needed to effectively prevent the spread of radioactive contaminants by blocking the expected movement path. By using these facilities or devices, it is possible to prevent the movement of radioactive aerosol particles between the location of the worker and the location of the cutting area where the calandria is located, thereby preventing internal exposure through the worker’s breathing. In addition, by using these, the cutting area where airborne pollutants are generated can be designed as an isolated work space to prevent the spread of radioactive contaminants. In this study, we propose a method of facilities for confining radioactive aerosol particles and preventing the spread of contamination when thermal cutting of the calandria vessel within the vault.

ATP luminescence measurements (using Relative Light Units, RLU) has been used to assess the levels of bacterial contamination on the surfaces of various materials. However, not much is known about their suitability in assessing bacterial contamination on paper surfaces. This study was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of using ATP luminometers in measuring levels of bacteria contamination on paper surfaces. The three ATP luminometers studied were Clean-Q, smart PD-30, and 3M™ Clean-Trace™ LM1 manufactured by different companies. There were some differences in RLU results among the three ATP luminometers when they were tested with different concentrations of Micrococcus luteus cell suspension. 106 - 107 cells were required in order to effectively detect Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Micrococcus luteus on the surfaces of A4 printing sheets (100 cm2) when using the three ATP luminometers. The sizes and physical properties of surface areas varied slightly among the swabs used for the three ATP luminometers. Concentration-specific measurements (RLU) of M. luteus taken from the surfaces of six kinds of paper (fine print paper, medium print paper, ground paper, newsprint paper, practice paper, tracing paper) were possible using the smart PD-30 and LM1 ATP luminometers. ATP detection values of M. luteus varied among the six types of paper. The highest ATP detection values were found on the surfaces of tracing paper. If the RLU value is recorded at the level of 1000, this could indicate a very high bacterial contamination level of 105 to 106 CFU/4 cm2.

Shallow groundwater in rural areas is primarily polluted by agricultural activities. Nitrate-nitrogen is an indicator of artificial pollution. In this study, the hydrochemical characteristics and nitrate-nitrogen pollution of shallow groundwater were examined in two agricultural villages (Hyogyo-ri and Sinan-ri) in Chungcheongnam-do Province, Korea. Physicochemical quality analysis of shallow groundwater and stream water in the field, and chemical analysis in the laboratory were conducted from July 2020 to October 2021. In Hygyo-ri and Sinan-ri villages, shallow groundwater mainly b elonged t o the C a-Cl, Ca-H CO3, Na-HCO3, and Na-Cl types, whereas stream water predominantly belonged to the Ca-HCO3 type. The nitrate-nitrogen concentration in shallow groundwater varied depending on the season, displaying an increased concentration of nitrate-nitrogen in the dry season compared to the rainy season. Stream water may be influenced by runoff into villages from the surrounding area, although both shallow groundwater and stream water are affected by artificial pollution. In addition, the nitrate-nitrogen concentration in stream water was lower than that in shallow groundwater.

The consumption of ready-to-eat side dishes is rapidly growing in South Korea. These foods are particularly vulnerable to microbiological contamination as they are often cooked without any treatment, such as heating or stored at room temperature after cooking. Hence, in 2022, we analyzed the ready-to-eat side dishes sold in Gyeongsangnam-do, South Korea for microbiological contamination. We collected 100 samples from supermarkets in 7 cities, and then examined them for presence of food-borne pathogens and sanitary indicator bacteria. In the analysis of the food-borne pathogens, Bacillus cereus and Clostridium perfringens were isolated from 51 samples (51.0%) and 3 samples (3.0%), respectively. However, both quantitatively met the Korean Food Standards Codex. Genes of five different enterotoxins and one emetic toxin were analyzed from the 51 isolated B. cereus strains. We detected enterotoxin entFM (100.0%), nheA (94.1%), hblC (58.8%), cytK (56.9%), and bceT (41.2%) in 51 isolates, and emetic toxin gene, CER, in only one (2.0%) isolate. We did not detect C. perfringens toxin gene (cpe) that causes food poisoning in any one of the three C. perfringens isolates. In the case of sanitary indicator bacteria, Kimchi had the highest levels of total aerobic bacteria and coliforms, followed by Saengchae, Jeotgal, Jeolim, Namul, and Jorim, respectively. We counted total aerobic bacteria at two different storage temperatures (4oC and 20oC) to determine the effect of storage temperature. When stored at 20oC, total aerobic bacteria count increased in most of the ready-to-eat side dishes, except for Jeotgal. This result conclusively shows the need for refrigerating the ready-to-eat side dishes after purchase. Further research is needed to assess the risk and safety of the ready-to-eat side dishes available in the market and determine appropriate safety management practices.

Concrete radioactive waste is divided into surface-contaminated concrete and activated concrete, and although the generation rate varies depending on the operating conditions of the nuclear power plant, it is reported that the amount of surface-contaminated concrete generated is greater. It is reported in the ‘US-NRC Inventory Report’ that 99% of radionuclides in surface-contaminated concrete are distributed within 1 mm of the surface. Since concrete radioactive waste accounts for a large amount of generation after metal radioactive waste, it is necessary to reduce the amount of radioactive waste disposal by applying appropriate treatment techniques to surface-contaminated concrete. In this study, a similar contamination environment work space with the size of 5.4 (W) × 3.6 (L) × 2.5 (H) [m] in which concrete specimens can be fixed on the wall and floor was established. And an integrated decontamination equipment was verified the automation performance for ‘location accuracy’, ‘radioactive contamination level measurement’ and ‘concrete surface laser scabbling’. It was confirmed that the average was 8.3 [mm] in the evaluation of the ‘location accuracy’ for the remote control and movement of the integrated decontamination equipment. For performance verification of ‘radioactive contamination level measurement’ and ‘laser scabbling’, it were used that size of 30×30×8 [cm] ordinary concrete specimens and concrete radioactively contaminated with Co-60 below the regulatory exemption concentration. ‘Radioactive contamination level measurement’ is measured as much as the set range, divied and display the measured values in different colors on the map of the control program. Ordinary concrete specimens are 0.066~0.089 μ Sv/hr, and contaminated concrete specimens are 0.107~0.121 μ Sv/hr, and it was confirmed that they are expressed in different colors on the map. For ‘laser scabbling’, the performance according to the laser scabbling speed and reproducibility with ordinary concrete specimens was verified. As a result, a weight change of up to 1.48 kg was confirmed. Contaminated concrete specimens were subjected to a direct method using a surface contamination detector and an indirect method using a smear paper to measure surface contamination before and after scabbling, and the debris generated after scabbling was analyzed using HPGe.

Levels of beauvericin (BEA) and enniatins (ENNs: ENA, ENA1, ENB, and ENB1) were examined in fresh ginger (n = 43) and ginger powder (n = 31) samples from Korea. In the ginger samples, incidence of BEA contamination was highest, at 62.79%, with a maximum detected BEA level of 640.07 μg/kg. ENNs in were found in up to 11.63% (ENB, ENB1) of ginger samples, with a maximum detected level of 91.02 μg/kg (ENA). In the ginger powders, ENB contamination displayed the highest rate of incidence (70.97%), but the highest level of BEA (1,344.18 μg/kg) exceeded that of ENB (413.99 μg/kg). The incidences of ENA, ENA1, ENB, and ENB1 presence in ginger powders were 29.03%, 22.58%, 70.97%, and 35.48%, respectively, and their highest detected levels were 220.45, 156.61, 413.99, and 70.29 μg/kg, respectively. The incidence of BEA and ENN contamination was higher in ginger powder than in ginger. Respective co-occurrence rates of BEA and ENNs in ginger and ginger powder samples were 16.28% and 64.52%, indicating that the BEA and ENN co-contamination rate was highest in ginger powder as well. This is the first report on the presence and co-occurrence of BEA and ENNs in Korean ginger and ginger powder.

Surface contaminants may attach to surfaces or objects in the radiation controlled area to cause radiation exposure, or spread out to the general environment by person and object exiting the radiation workplace. Accordingly, in radiological safety control, surface contamination monitoring is one of the important factors in workplace monitoring. When obtaining the measurement results for the monitoring, the results are accompanied by uncertainty since measurements contain numerous errors. Accordingly, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) has published the ISO 7503 series which is comprehensive and detailed guidelines on the measurement and evaluation of surface contamination. ISO 7503-3 especially presents a mathematical model for the contamination measurement and provide calculation guidelines on measurement uncertainty evaluation, decision threshold and detection limit. This paper is focused on reevaluating and comparing the surface contamination monitoring method applied to radiation safety management practice and its results based on the measurement and evaluation method set by the International Organization for Standardization. The evaluation was performed in accordance with ISO 7503, and the current reporting method for measurement results was compared with the method recommended in ISO 11929 publication.

When the nuclear accident like the Fukushima is occurred, it is required to immediately determine the location of radioactive materials and their activities. Various studies related the unmanned technique to detect and characterize the contaminated area have been conducted. The Korea Institute of Nuclear Nonproliferation and Control (KINAC) has developed a new gamma detection system which consists of nine probes using a silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) and plastic scintillator. The probe is the small gamma detector designed to be carried and dropped near the accident area by the unmanned aerial vehicle. In this paper, we developed the improved design related to the angular dependence of the radioactive contamination detection system with the purpose of increasing the detection efficiency. The detection efficiency, radiation shielding and back-scattering varies depending on the direction of incidence of radiation because the probe has vertical structure of consisting scintillator, photomultiplier, and electric circuits. That is, when the experimental conditions are same except the direction of gamma probe, the result of measurements is different. It causes errors in measuring the radioactivity and location of the radioactive source. Since the direction of the probe is arbitrarily determined during the deployment of the probe through the unmanned aerial vehicle, it is considered changing the design of the scintillator from a conventional 1.0" × 1.0" Φ cylindrical shape to a 1.0" Φ spherical shape. In case of using the spherical scintillator, it is confirmed that angular dependence was reduced through MCNP simulation. The difference in the measurement depending on the direction of the probe could be reduced through additional structure design. Finally, we hope that the developed detection system which has the probes with spherical shape of scintillator can measure the radioactivity and location of the radioactive source in a range of about 100 × 100 m2 by measuring for at least 5 minutes. The field test at Fukushima area will be carried out with JAEA members in order to prove the feasibility of the new system.

A large amount of concrete radioactive waste is generated during the decommissioning of nuclear facilities, including nuclear power plants, and it is expected that the radioactive waste management expenses will be huge. In order to reduce the concrete radioactive waste, a decontamination or removal process is required, but working on concrete may present a risk of worker exposure in a high-radioactive space. Therefore, in this study, a remote control integrated decontamination equipment that can reduce concrete radioactive waste and ensure the safety of workers during the concrete decontamination process in a high-radioactive space was developed. The integrated decontamination equipment consists of remote movement, automatic surface contamination measurement, automatic surface decontamination and debris/dust removal systems. The remote movement system generates ‘mapping data’ of topographic features for the work space and ‘location data’ that coordinates the location of the integrated decontamination equipment through LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensor and SLAM (Simultaneous Localization And Mapping) technique. The user can check the location of the integrated decontamination equipment through ‘location data’ outside the work space, and can move it by remote control through wired/wireless communication. The automatic surface contamination measurement system uses a radiation detector and an automatic measurement algorithm to generate ‘surface measurement data’ based on the measurement distance interval and measurement time set by the user. ‘Surface measurement data’ is combined with ‘location data’ to create a visualized map of radioactive contamination, and users can intuitively realize the location and degree of contamination based on the map. The automatic surface decontamination system uses a laser and an automatic removal algorithm to decontaminate the concrete surface. Concrete debris and dust generated during this process were collected by the debris/dust removal system, minimizing waste generation and radiation exposure due to secondary pollution. The integrated decontamination equipment developed through this study was applied with technologies that reduced radioactive concrete waste and ensured the safety of workers. If technology verification and on-site applicability review are performed using concrete specimens simulating nuclear power plant or similar environments, it is reasoned to contribute to the domestic and overseas decommissioning industry.

The Nuclear Cycle Experiment Research Center is one of the facility of the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI). This facility is a laboratory-scale version of pyro-processing technology. Mixture depleted Uranium (DU) and depleted Uranium (DU) feed material are used in this facility for pyro-research. During summer, air conditioners that maintain temperature and humidity are always in operation to protect analysis equipments. 15 air conditioners are installed in this facility. The condensate which is generated in 15 air conditioners is collected in one place to analyze. Sampling was performed to check the level of contamination, U, pH and gamma radiation test were performed. This paper shows the degree of contamination of air conditioner condensate which is generated in the radiation management area.

본 연구에서는 식품접객업소에서 시중 판매되는 더치커 피의 미생물 오염도를 조사하여 유형에 따른 차이를 살펴 보고자 하였다. 경기도 내 커피전문점에서 유통되는 더치 커피 70건을 대상으로 위생지표균, 식중독균, 진균류 오염도를 조사하였으며 추출방법에 따른 일반세균과 진균류의 오 염도를 비교하였다. 일반세균수는 0.74-6.21 log CFU/mL 범 위로 검출되었으며 식품 유형에 따른 평균 검출량은 식품 접객업소 조리식품(3.04 log CFU/mL)이 액상커피(2.08 log CFU/mL)보다 높게 나타났다. 액상커피는 검출된 6건 중 3건이 세균수 기준을 초과하여 부적합이었다. 식중독 원 인균은 70건 모두 불검출이었다. 진균수는 0.70-4.00 log CFU/mL 범위로 검출되었으며 식품유형에 따른 차이는 없 었다. 추출방법에 따른 미생물 오염도는 원두 혼합 여부 와 추출 시간에 따라 비교하였으며, 일반세균수와 진균수 모두 유의적인 차이는 없었다(P>0.05). 시중 유통되는 더 치커피는 일반세균과 진균류에 대한 오염도가 높으므로 위생적인 관리와 적절한 온도 유지를 통해 미생물 오염을 줄이는 것이 중요하며 안전성 확보를 위해 지속적인 모니 터링이 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

In this study, heavy metals (lead, cadmium, and mercury) and shellfish poisoning toxins (diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxins, amnesic shellfish poisoning toxins) were investigated in a total of 104 shellfishes. According to the analysis of heavy metals, lead (Pb) was detected in the range of 0.0177-0.5709 mg/kg, cadmium (Cd) was detected in the range of 0.0226-1.4602 mg/kg, and mercury (Hg) was detected in the range of 0.0015-0.0327 mg/kg. Levels of Pb, Cd, and Hg were acceptable by Korean standards. Okadaic acid (OA) and dinophysistoxin-1 (DTX-1) were investigated for monitoring of diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxins and OA and DTX-1 were not detected. As a result of monitoring of amnesic shellfish poisoning toxins, domoic acid was detected in 5 of 104 samples and detection ratio was 4.8%. The detection period was found as follows; 1 case in January, 1 case in February, 1 case in May, 2 cases in September. These showed that continuous monitoring for the management of shellfish poisoning toxins and heavy metals is required. In addition, this study can be used as reference data to strengthen managing heavy metals in fishery products.

The consumption of Flammulina velutipes mushroom imported from Korea has been associated with the cases of listeriosis in the United States, Canada, and Australia. We investigated the effect of sanitizing the plastic wrapper (used in packaging F. velutipes) with slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW) and ultraviolet C waterproof light-emitting diode (UVC-WLED) on reducing the Listeria monocytogenes. Further, the effect of UVC-LED on L. monocytogenes growth in F. velutipes at different storage temperatures (2, 4, and 10oC) was determined. The combined (SAEW+UVC-W-LED) treatment for 5–10 min reduced 99.9% of bacterial population from the contaminated plastic wrapper. In addition, the UVC-LED treatment for 3 min reduced the L. monocytogenes concentration in F. velutipes by 0.47 log CFU/g. Moreover, the growth of L. monocytogenes in the treated mushrooms was slower than that of the untreated (control) ones. L. monocytogenes concentration in F. velutipes increased over 3 log CFU/g at 2oC and 10oC for 60 and 10 days, respectively. The growth of L. monocytogenes at the bottom of mushrooms was faster than that at the top at both the temperatures. These results indicate that the combined SAEW+UVC-WLED treatment of plastic wrappers and the UVC-LED treatment of mushrooms can be used as potential hurdle technologies to control the risk of L. monocytogenes in mushrooms prior to packaging at farms.

본 연구에서는 한국 전통 과자인 유과와 강정을 원·부재료와 기기 및 도구, 작업자의 개인위생, 제조공정별 원료에 대한 미생물학적 오염을 분석하였다. 유과제조 과정 중 현장에서 사용하고 있는 세척 방법과 횟수에 따른 미생물 저감효과를 확인하고자 하였다. 강정의 제조 공정 중 튀밥에서 일반세균수 1.2 Log CFU/g, 완제품의 경우 3.7 Log CFU/g까지 점차 증가하였다. 유과의 제조 공정 중 일반세균수는 불림공정에서 일반세균 최대 6.5 Log CFU/g 수준으로 증가하다가 튀김공정에서 1.3 Log CFU/g수준으로 감소하였으나 완제품에서 4.0 Log CFU/g 수준으로 재오염되는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 제조과정 중에 작업도구와 기기 또는 작업자 등에 의한 교차오염으로 판단되었다. 작업 도구인 주걱의 경우 일반세균 약 4.4 Log CFU/g, 대장균군 4.2 Log CFU/g으로 매우 오염도가 나타났다. 유과의 불림단계에서 7일동안 일반세균 수가 최대 10 Log CFU/g 이상, 대장균군의 경우 6.8 Log CFU/g으로 증가하였다. 손 또는 도구를 이용한 세척 방법과 흐르는 물에 세 척한 방법을 비교하였을 때, 손을 이용하여 수돗물로 10 회 세척하였을 때 일반세균 5.0 Log CFU/g, 대장균군 2.8 Log CFU/g 감소한 것으로 확인되었다. 이상의 결과로 볼 때, 소규모 업체의 전통 한과 제조 시 작업자나 작업 도 구 및 기기 사용 후 세척 및 소독하는 과정이 요구되며 완제품의 미생물 오염도를 감소시키기 위해 현장에 적용할 수 있는 저감화 방법이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.
