  • In order to identify the morphological changes of tissues in mouse after irradiation. We have observed the redistribution of LDH isozymes and the morphological changes of skeletal muscle, heart, kidney, liver and testis in mouse according to variation amount with the time after the 1 Gray and 3 Gray irradiation each. As a result of H-E (hematoxylin-eosin) stain, the apoptotic bodies were more easily observed in the liver than the other tissues and the quantity of the apoptotic bodies was proportionated to radiation amount. The number of apoptotic bodies was shown the highest at 1 day in most tissues and at 7 day in testis after irradiation. TUNEL (terminal deoxyribonucleodtidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling) staining was shown the same results as H-E staining. After the irradiation, the protein content was reduced in tissues except kidney. And protein content was reduced in all tissues at the initial period of 2 hours after 3 Gy irradiation. But it increased at 7 days after irradiation. LDH (EC 1.1.1.27, lactate dehydrogenase) activity was increased mostly in tissues at the early stage after 1 Gy irradiation. The maximum activity was detected earlier stage after 1 Gy irradiation than 3 Gy irradiation. The activity of LDH $A_4$ isozyme was decreased in the skeletal muscle, heart, kidney, and testis. The activity of $B_4$ and $A_2$$B_2$ sozyme was increased in the skeletal muscle and heart, and the activity of heterotetramer isozyme was increased in kidney The activity of $A_4$ isozyme in liver was detected high level and the activity of isozyme including subunit C elevated in testis. Therefore, LDH isozyme seems to play a role of lactate oxidase in most tissues except liver after irradiation. These data support that LDH isozyme is predomintly involved in the aerobic metabolism.

  • The purpose of this study was conducted to investigate the influencing factors on foreign workers's work-life balance and provide guidelines for interventions and strategies to increase work-life balance in foreign workers. This study was a secondary data analysis from the $4^{th}$ Korean Working Conditions Survey(KWCS). The sample included 179 foreign workers. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22 and AMOS 22. As a results, the hypothetical path model was a good fit. In the path analysis, health status, social support, work time, job satisfaction had statistically significant effects on foreign workers's work-life balance and these variables explained 24.9% of work-life balance. These results reveal the predictors of work-life balance in foreign workers. Therefore, we need the active support for work-life balance predictors.

  • 현지관측을 통한 지속적이고 광범위한 지역에 대해 정확하고 정밀하게 조사하여 종합적인 분석과 예측, 결정과정에 있어서, 복잡한 해양의 특성, 여러가지 조사 작업상의 난점, 경제적, 시간적으로 많은 어려움이 따르게 된다. 하지만, 위성원격탐사와 GIS를 이용한 해양환경파악기법은 현지관측에서 얻을 수 있는 제한적인 자료이외의 다량의 자료를 정성 및 정량적으로 데이터베이스화하여 분석함과 동시에 가시화함으로써 해양개발로 인해 불가피하게 초래될 수밖에 없는 환경을 보다 정확하게, 객관적으로 분석하여 장기적으로 예측할 수 있는 고도화된 환경조사 및 평가 기술이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고해상도 위성자료인 Landsat TM 영상과 NOAA AVHRR 자료를 이용하여 수온 및 클로로필을 추출하였으며, GIS를 이용하여 현지관측자료 및 수치해도를 기초로 공간분포도를 작성함으로서 그 외의 수질환경요소를 산출하였다. 위성영상분석은 현장조사와 같은 시점의 Landsat TM 위성영상을 획득하여, 위성 영상은 지구의 곡률과 자전, 위성체의 자세와 고도 및 속도, 그리고 센서의 기하 특성으로 인하여 실제의 지형에 대하여 기하학적 왜곡을 가지고 있으므로 지형도에서 지상기준점(Ground Control Point, GCP)를 추출하여 ERDAS Imagine으로 UTM좌표체계에 따른 기하보정(Geometric Correction)을 실시하였으며, 동일한 시기의 NOAA AVHRR영상을 데이터로 처리하여 수온자료를 추출하였다. 표층수온과 현장관측에 의한 클로로필을 수치 지도화하기 위하여 열적외선영역인 TM band 6의 분광특성값(Digital Number)과 동일한 위치의 수온자료를 기초로 회귀분석을 실시함으로써 수온추출 알고리즘을 도출하여, 분석데이터의 신뢰도를 검증하였으며, 수온, 클로로필, 투명도 등을 위성원격탐사 자료와 GIS를 이용하여 공간분석을 실시하고, 공간분포도를 작성함으로써 대상해역의 해양환경을 파악하였다. 본 연구결과, 분석된 위성자료가 현장조사에 의한 검증이 이루어지지 않을 경우, 영상자료분석을 통한 표층수온 추출은 대기 중의 수증기와 에어로졸에 의한 계산치의 오차가 반영되기 때문에 실측치 보다 낮게 평가 될 수 있으므로, 반드시 이에 대한 검증이 필요함을 알 수 있었다. 현지관측에 비해 막대한 비용과 시간을 절약할 수 있는 위성영상해석방법을 이용한 방법은 해양수질파악이 가능할 것으로 판단되며, GIS를 이용하여 다양하고 복잡한 자료를 데이터베이스화함으로써 가시화하고, 이를 기초로 공간분석을 실시함으로써 환경요소별 공간분포에 대한 파악을 통해 수치모형실험을 이용한 각종 환경영향의 평가 및 예측을 위한 기초자료로 이용이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.
