The aim of this study was to evaluate the chemical quenching system for residual ozone and to determine the operating condition for the quenching system. Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) and sodium thiosulfate (Na₂S₂O₃) were investigated as quenching reagents for ozone removal, and the tendency of each chemical was notably different. In the case of H₂O₂, the degradation rate of ozone was increased as the concentration of H₂O₂ increase, and temperature and pH value have a significant effect on the degradation rate of ozone. On the other hand, the degradation rate of ozone was not affected by the concentration of Na₂S₂O₃, temperature and pH value, due to the high reactivity between the S₂O₃²- and ozone. This study evaluates the decomposition mechanism of ozone by H₂O₂ and Na₂S₂O₃ with consideration for the water quality and reaction time. Furthermore, the removal test for the quenching reagents, which can be remained after reaction with ozone, was conducted by GAC process.

본 연구는 절화 아이리스의 노화와 절화수명에 미치는 에틸렌의 영향과 이러한 에틸렌의 작용을 억제할 수 있는 STS 전처리의 효과에 대하여 알아보고자 수행하였다. 아이리스는 1mM STS 용액에 30분간 전처리한 후 0, 3mL·L−1 의 에틸렌에 24시간 노출시켰다. 봉오리 상태 에서 절화 아이리스의 절화수명은 STS 전처리후 에틸렌 에 노출된 것은 4.2일, 에틸렌에 노출되지 않았던 꽃은 4.6일 이었다. 반개화 상태에 수확한 아이리스의 절화수명 은 STS 전처리에서 길었다. 그러나 에틸렌 노출에 의해 서는 수명이 영향을 받지 않았다. 그러므로 절화 아이 리스는 외생 에틸렌에 민감하지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 봉 오리 상태에서 수확한 절화는 완전한 개화가 유도되지 않 고 노화가 일어나는 경우가 많으므로 어느 정도 개화가 진전된 꽃을 수확하는 것이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

The influences of ethylene inhibitors (AgNO3 and silver thiosulfate) and cytokinins (BAP and TDZ) on shoot regeneration from cotyledon and hypocotyl explants of B. napus cv. Youngsan were investigated. The presence of 50 μM Silver thiosulfate (STS) in shoot regeneration medium formed shoots at 60-68% after 3-4 weeks of culture, which was enhanced by 2-fold compared to that of Silver nitrate (AgNO3). Moreover, cotyledon explants were more regenerative than hypocotyls; shoots from cotyledon explants began to occur 4-5 days earlier than that of hypocotyl explants. TDZ at a concentration of 8-10 μM was effective for shoot regeneration, compared with BAP. Consequently, the optimal shoot regeneration response was observed in medium supplemented with 50 μM STS + 8 μM TDZ. In transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis, higher density of silver nanoparticles was shown to be accumulated widely inside the cell wall and plasmodesmata of regenerating leaf cultured in medium supplemented with AgNO3. By contrast, in the cell cultured in medium with STS, fine-grained deposits were partly observed in the surroundings of the cell wall.
