Oligomer type anionic surfactants(RmM-Na or RmD-Na were synthesized from C8~C16 long chain alkylvinylether and maleic anhydride (or maleic diethylether). And also their fluorescent anionic surfactants (RmF- Na) were obtained from alkali neutralization which opens the lactone ring of the condensing materials produced by maleic anhydride alkylvinylether copolymer and 3-aminophenol. The measurement results for the surface active properties of water soluble oligomer type anionic surfactants with fluorescent structure (RmF-Na) exhibited a remarkable surface tension lowing property, foam breaking property, and a ernulsing power.

The principal objective of this study was to clone transgenic embryos in order to improve the efficiency of transgenic animal production by the combination of microinjection and nuclear transplantation techniques. Mature female New Zealand White rabbits were superovulated by eCG and hCG treatments, fllowed by natural mating. Zygotes were collected from the oviducts at 18∼22 h after hCG injection by flushing with D-PBS containing 5% fetal calf serum(FCS). Two to three picoliters of green fluorescent protein(GFP) gene wa microinjected into male pronucleus. The foreign gene-injected zygotes were cultured in TCM-199 or RD medium containing 10% FCS with a monolayer of rabbit oviductal epithelial cells in a 5% CO2 incubator. The morulae expressing GFP gene were selected and their blastomeres were separated for the use of nuclear donor. Following nuclear transplantation of fluorescence-positive morula stage blastomeres, 13 (21.3%) out of 61 fused oocytes developed to blastocyst stage and all of the cloned blastocysts expressed GFP. The results indicate that the screening of transgene in rabbit embryos by GFP detection could be a promisible method for the preselection of transgenic embryos. Also the cloning of preselected transgenic embryos by nuclear transplantatin could be efficiently applied to the multiple production of transgenic animals.

The efficiency of transgenic livestock production could be improved by early screening of transgene-integration and sexing of embryos at preimplantational stages before trasferring them into recipients. We examined the effciency of multiplex PCR analysis for the simultaneous confirmation of the trasgene and sex during the preimplantational development of bovine embryos and the possibility of green fluorescent protein(GFP) gene as a non-invasive marker for the early screening of transgenic embryos. The GFP gene was microinjected into the male pronuclei of bovine zygotes produced in vitro. The injected zygotes were co-cultured in TCM-199 containing 10% FCS with boving oviductal epithelial cells in a 5% CO2 incubator. Seventeen(13.0%) out of 136 gene-injected bovine zygotes developed by multiplex PCR analysis and the expression of GFP was detected by observing green fluorescence in embryos under a fluorescent microscope. Eight(67%) of 12 embryos at 2-cell to blastocyst stage were positive in the PCR analysis, but only two(11.8%) of 17 blastocysts expressed the GFP gene. Their sex was determined as 7 female and 5 male embryos by the PCR analysis. The results indicate that the screening of GFP gene and sex in bovine embryos by PCR analysis and fluorescence detection could be a promisible method for the preselection of transgenic embryos.

Autographa californica 핵다각체병 바이러스(AcNPV)의 다각체 단백질과 초록색 형광 단백질의 융합단백질의 특성을 분석하였다. 초록색 형광 단백질 유전자는 AcNPV의 완전한 다각체 단백질 유전자의 앞쪽과 뒤쪽에 융합하여 다각체 단백질 유전자의 프로모터 조절하에 도입하였다. 이렇게 작성된 재조합 바이러스를 각각 Ac-GFPPOL 또는 Ac-POLGFP이라고 명명하였다. 이들 재조합 바이러스에 의해 감염된 곤충세포주에서는 56kDa의 융합단백질이 발현되었다. 한편, 흥미롭게도 재조합 바이러스 Ac-POLGFP에 의해 감염된 세포주에서는 초록색 형광이 핵내에서만 다각체 유사 granular particle 형태로 관찰되었다. 반면에 Ac-GFPPOP에 의해 감염된 세포도주에서는 대부분 핵내에 존재하였지만, 세포질과 핵 모두에서 초록색 형광을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그러나 발현된 융합단백질은 분명히 다각체단백질을 포함하고 있음에도 다각체는 형성하지 않았다. 이러한 결과들은 융합단백질에서 다각체단백질의 위치와 관련이 있는 것으로 보여진다.

The efficiency of transgenic livestock animal production may be improved by early selection of transgenci preimplantation embryos. To examine the possibility of GFP gene as a non-invasive marker for the early screening of transgenic embryo, the GFP gene was microinjected into rabbit zygotes and the later stages of preimplantation embryos were examined for the expression of GFP. The presence of injected DNA was detected by PCR analysis and the expression of GFP was detected by observing green fluorescence in embryos under a fluorescent microscope. Out of 108 GFP gene-injected rabbit zygotes, seventy three(67.6%) were fluorescence-positive. When 11 fluroresecence-positive blastocysts were analyzed for the presence of GFP gene by PCR, 6(54.5%) were positive, and all of the 8 flrouescence-negative blastocysts were also negative by PCR. The results indicate that the screening of transgene in rabbit embryos by PCR analysis and GFP detection could be a promising method for the preselection of transgenic embryos.

Fluorescent anionic oligo surfactants were synthesized by the condensing products of long chain alkylvinylether-maleic anhydride cooligomers and resorcinol including dye structures. Their various surface activities and dispersing action were studied on the aqueous solution. These oligo surfactants exhibited a remarkable surface tension lowering property, lower foaming and a large dispersing action for the particles of α-copper phthalocyanine blue. Further it was ascertained that the binding of oligo surfactant onto the pigment surface caused the deviation towards lower wavelengths at the maximum fluorescent intensity as compared with aqueous oligo surfactant solutions, These surface active properties of the oligo surfactants may be attributed to rigid and hydrophobic structure of dye groups, besides surface-active groups of alkylether groups and carboxylic group of the anionic oligo surfactants.

플루오레세인 구조를 갖는 잔틴계 염료의 형광안료로의 응용 가능성 및 제조되는 안료들의 광학 특성 조절 가능성을 확인하기 위하여 본 연구를 진행하였다. 안료 제조에는 수용성 잔틴계 염료인 eosin Y (D&C Red No.22), phloxine B (D&C Red No.28)를 주로 사용하였으며, 염료를 용매에 용해시켜 분체와 분산, 교반 하고 이를 건조시켜 분쇄함으로써 안료를 제조 하였고, 제조된 안료들에 대해서는 형광과 관련한 광학 특성을 측정하였다. 사용한 용매의 종류, 염료의 함량, 그리고 염료의 혼합 투입 비율에 따라서 안료의 광학적 특성이 변함을 관찰하였다. 실험 결과에 따르면, 분체에 흡착된 염료 중 일부분이 형광 발색을 하며, 나머지는 형광에 기여하지 않는 것으로 보인다. 안료를 구성하는 분체-염료계 내부의 결합 (혹은 상호작용) 세기와 그 특성을 파악하기 위한 안료 수세실험 결과, 안료 계 내에는 서로 다른 2개 이상의 상호작용이 존재하며, 그 중 하나는 용매-염료 상호작용보다 비교적 강하였다.

Background: Gastrodia elata Blume is a saprophytic perennial plant in the Orchidaceae family, because of its agricultural and medicinal effectiveness, researchers focus on its genome and chemical components. However, cytogenetic information based on the chromosome structure and composition to construct chromosomal backbone for genome sequencing research and for the development and breeding of plants is very limited. Methods and Results: We determined the metaphase chromosome composition of the G. elata genome by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) using 5S and 45S rDNAs and telomeric repeat probes. The nuclear genome of G. elata was organized into 2 n = 36, with relatively small (2.71 - 5.50㎛)chromosomes that showed gradual decrease in size. Conglutination phenomenon was observed among the metaphase chromosomes, and it was distinguished from that in other plant metaphase chromosome spreads. One pair of signal was detected for each 5S and 45S rDNA in the pericentromeric region and interstitial region on the short arm of chromosomes 10 and 4, respectively, and telomeric DNA signals were detected in the terminal region of most chromosomes. Conclusions: To our knowledge, this is the first FISH chromosome composition result in G. elata and could be useful in more comprehensive molecular cytogenetic and genomic analyses as well as breeding programs of the medicinal plant G. elata.

국내 자원의 절약과 재활용 촉진에 관한 법률에 근거한 생산자책임재활용제도(EPR System)의 대상 품목인 폐형광등은 2017년 기준 재활용 의무율은 35.6%로 책정되었으며 한국환경공단에 따르면 2015년 기준 형광등의 출고량은 약 18 천톤 정도로 나타났으나 공제조합과 재활용업 간의 재활용 위･탁 계약의 미체결로 인해 폐형광등의 실제 재활용율은 약 5.0%로 재활용 의무율을 달성하지 못하고 있는 실정이다(｢생산자책임재활용제도 시행 13년｣ 운영성평가, 한국환경공단, 2017). 폐기물로 발생되는 폐형광등에 관한 선행연구에 따르면 폐형광등에 포함된 수은은 대부분 형광분말에 포함되어 있어 이를 적절하게 처리할 필요가 있다. 또한, 형광분말에는 희유금속(이트륨, 유로퓸 등)이 포함되어 있어 형광분말에 포함된 수은을 제거하여 희유금속을 회수하여 희유금속을 필요로 하는 산업체 등에서 활용할 수 있다. 이를 위하여 폐형광등 형광분말에 포함된 수은을 제거하기 위하여 Pilot plant 규모의 폐형광등 형광분말 증류 실험을 실시하였다. 실험의 원료는 경기도 K대학에 설치된 Pilot plant 규모의 폐형광등 재활용 공정에서 회수되는 폐형광등 형광분말을 사용하였다. Pilot plant 규모의 폐형광등 형광분말의 수은증류 실험의 조건으로 증류온도는 400~600℃로 변화시켰고 각 온도에서 증류장치 내 체류시간을 1~8시간으로 변화시켰다. 본 연구에서는 각 실험조건에서 회수되는 형광분말의 수은함량을 분석하였고 증류온도와 체류시간에 따른 수은함량을 비교하여 반응속도를 고찰하였다. 또한, 각 실험조건에서 소모되는 에너지양을 비교하여 Pilot plant 규모의 폐형광등 형광분말 증류장치의 최적 에너지 사용량을 평가하고자 하였다.

유엔환경계획(UNEP)의 미나마타 협약으로 유해물질인 수은에 대하여 국제적으로 관심의 대상이 되고 있으며, 수은을 포함한 형광등에 대한 안전한 처리방안이 필요하다. 국내 폐형광등 발생량은 2014년 기준으로 약 1억 4천만개 정도이며, 폐형광등의 재활용량은 약 4천 3백만개 정도로 나타났다. 이는 폐형광등의 국내 생산자 책임재활용제도(EPR System)의 의무율은 2014년 기준 35.5%에 비해 실제 재활용율은 32.7%로 의무율을 달성하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 폐형광등을 재활용하거나 관리하는 것은 유해물질인 수은이 포함되어 있기 때문이며, 이러한 유해물질은 폐기물을 재활용하고 관리하기 위하여 제거 되어야 한다. 이러한 유해물질을 제거하기 위해서는 폐기물 내 유해물질의 분포를 파악하는 것이 중요하며, 이를 파악하고자 U-type 폐형광등 재활용 공정의 폐기물 흐름을 평가할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내에서 발생되는 폐형광등 중 약 25%정도 차지하는 U-type 폐형광등의 재활용 공정의 폐기물 흐름 평가는 유입과 유출을 이용한 기본적인 방법을 이용하여 실시하였으며, 재활용 시설의 계(System)는 각 공정시설로 설정하고 각 공정별로 주위(Boundary)를 설정하여 전체적으로 물질에 대한 흐름을 검토하였다. 폐기물 흐름 평가는 U-type 폐형광등 1 ton에 대한 기초 자료를 이용하여 분석하였다. U-type 폐형광등에 포함되어 있는 유리, 플라스틱, 금속류 등의 물질을 대상물질로 하여 폐기물 흐름을 평가한 결과, 유리 84.40%, 플라스틱 12.60%, 철금속 1.93%, 형광분말 1.07%로 나타났다. 또한 U-type 폐형광등 재활용 공정에서 발생되는 유해물질인 수은은 기상수은과 투입된 물질에 포함된 수은으로 구분하여 수은에 대한 흐름을 평가하고자 하였다.

Material flow analysis (MFA) of recycling material and of mercury from linear-type spent fluorescent lamps (SFLs was performed to estimate the material composition of the chain recycling process by an input-output approach. The recycling process system for linear-type SFLs was established using an end-cutting system, a hammer crusher, a screen separation system, a mercury distillation system, and an activated carbon adsorption component. From the results of the MFA of lineartype SFLs, 92% of materials used in linear-type SFLs such as glass, aluminum, and phosphor powder can be recycled. For MFA of mercury, the mercury content in the phosphor powder was the highest among material compositions tested and the total mercury amount in the recycling materials from 1 ton of SFLs was estimated to be 75.43 g. In the recycling process system for linear-type SFLs, the mercury amount in the vapor phase was analyzed and found to be 2228 mg in the endcutting system, 172 mg in the hammer crusher, and 2585 mg in the screen separation system. The total mercury amount in the vapor phase was estimated to be 4985 mg, which was only 6.22% of the total mercury amount emitted from the recycling process system. Hence, it was estimated that the MFA of the total mercury amount obtained from the vapor phase and the recycling materials of 1 ton of SFLs using the recycling process system was 80.175 g.

일반 소형 형광등(Compact Florescent Lamp; CFL)(20W기준)에는 약 10%의 철금속(ferrous metal)이 존재한다. 철금속은 ‘리사이클링에 의한 생산량’ 을 ‘광석에 의한 생산량’ 으로 나눈 값인 리사이클링강도가 0.84로 타소재 알루미늄 0.39, 구리 0.08, 티타늄 0.02인 데 비해 압도적으로 높으며 철금속을 재활용하면 광물로부터 직접 철금속을 만드는 공정에 비해 이산화탄소 82%, 질소산화물 88.9%, 황산화물 94.7%을 줄일 수 있다. 또한 자연을 비교적 적게 파괴하면서도 쓰레기를 거의 남기지 않는 친환경적인 소재로 다른 소재 대신 철금속을 사용하면 사용할수록 환경보존에 도움이 되며 재활용도 용이해 경제성이 매우 뛰어나다. 본 연구는 폐형광등의 재활용 과정의 일부인 자력을 이용하여 자성물질인 철금속을 선별 및 회수 목적으로 자력 선별기를 개발하는 것이다. 수은이 제거된 폐소형 형광등(CFL)을 자력 선별기에 투입한 후 자력을 이용해 물리적으로 철금속을 단시간에 효과적으로 선별 및 회수할 수 있는 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 자력 선별기에 의한 시료의 투입속도에 따른 철금속의 선별 및 회수를 모니터링 하여 자력선별기의 선별효율을 평가하고자 하였다.

Environmental concerns regarding mercury-containing fluorescent lamps have been raised in many countries, especiallyafter International Minamata Convention on Mercury in 2014. Improper management and disposal of the waste such aslandfilling and incineration may pose serious threats to the environment and human health. In Korea, mercury-containinglamps have been regulated by the expanded producer responsibility (EPR) system since 2004. However, only less than30% of the lamps sold to consumers has been collected by municipalities. In order to provide additional measures relatedto proper management of fluorescent lamps, there is a need for a quantitative material flow study by life cycle stage. Inthis study, material flow analysis was conducted by collecting relevant data from literature review, available statistics,and field site visits to lamp recycling facilities. According to the results of this study, approximately 150 million unitsof fluorescent lamps were put on the market in 2013, while 36.9 million units of the lamps were recycled mainly fromhouseholds in the year. It is estimated that approximately 3.5 million units and 2.3 million units of lamps in disposalbags are disposed and treated in landfills and incineration facilities, respectively. This study also found that there weresignificant amounts of uncollected lamps that were present in industrial sectors. The material flow of the industrial sectorsare largely unknown and not properly regulated by government. Based on the mass flow of mercury in lamps, 1.6ton ofmercury in lamps came into consumer markets in 2013. Approximately 407kg of mercury was collected by the recyclingprocess at the fluorescent lamps recycling facility. The mercury disposed in landfills and treated in incinerators were foundto be 38.3kg and 25.5kg, respectively. Further study may be warranted to focus the material and mercury flow of lampsin industrial sectors in order to accurately determine the final destination and disposal of such waste in the environmentbecause there are very few available statistical data regarding distribution flow and treatment of lamps in the sectors.

A colorimetric chemosensors Sn2+ have been designed and synthesized by three steps. The spirolactam ring-opening process of rhodamine B is one of the most useful mechanisms for controlling fluorescence properties. Herein, new fluorescent chemosensors 1 and 2 based on rhodamine B containing phenothiazine derivertive were synthesized. They exhibit selective fluorescence enhancement behaviour in the presence of Sn2+ ion. Complexation between these compounds and the metal cations were confirmed through continuous variation method. It is observed that compounds 1, 2, and Sn2+ ion are complexed by 1:1 formation. Especially the proposed compounds 1 and 2 exhibit quick, simple and facile synthetic route.
