인공수로 내 효율적인 물 순환 시스템 운영을 위해서는 지속적인 유량공급을 통해 순환흐름을 유도하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 따라서 수로 내 적절한 유입부 위치를 결정하고 계획 유입유량에 따른 수질개선효과 및 물 순환주기를 분석하는 연구가 대두되고 있어, 모형을 통한 이론적인 예측 및 모형실험을 통한 검증이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 농도-pH 지표곡선을 이용하여 시간에 따른 수로 내 농도변화로 물 순환주기를 분석하였다. 수로 내 설치된 유입부에 평면상 위치변화를 주어 순환흐름에 적합한 유입부 위치를 제시할 수 있었으며, 농도변화가 없어지는 시점을 통해 최소 물 순환주기를 산정할 수 있었다.

Environmental problems typically occurring in abandoned mine lands (AML) include: contaminated and acidic surface water and groundwater; stockpiled waste rock and mill tailings; and ground subsidences due to mining operations. This study examines the effectiveness of various geophysical techniques for mapping potential hazard and contaminated zones. Four AML sites with sedimentation contamination problems, acid mine drainage (AMD) channels, ground subsidence, manmade liner leakage, and buried mine tailings, were selected to examine the applicability of various geophysical methods to the identification of the different types of mine hazards. Geophysical results were correlated to borehole data (core samples, well logs, tomographic profiles, etc.) and water sample data (pH, electrical conductivity (EC), and heavy metal contents). Zones of low electrical resistivity (ER) corresponded to areas contaminated by heavy metals, especially contamination by Cu, Pb, and Zn. The main pathways of AMD leachate were successfully mapped using ER methods (low anomaly peaks), self-potential (SP) curves (negative peaks), and ground penetrating radar (GPR) at shallow penetration depths. Mine cavities were well located based on composite interpretations of ER, seismic tomography, and well-log records; mine cavity locations were also observed in drill core data and using borehole image processing systems (BIPS). Damaged zones in buried manmade liners (used to block descending leachate) were precisely detected by ER mapping, and buried rock waste and tailings piles were characterized by low-velocity zones in seismic refraction data and high-resistivity zones in the ER data.

Steroid hormones control the expression of many cellular regulators, and a role thor estrogen in mouse oocytes has been well documented. The preovulatory $E_2$increment is generally accepted as the endocrine process regulating induction of in vivo oocyte maturation To address whether the activity of the T-type $Ca^{2+}$ channel is altered by 17 beta-estradiol ( $E_2$), we examined the actions of $E_2$on the calcium channel of mouse oocytes and early embryos. Oocrtes were collected from the oviduct of mice treated with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (PMSG) and human choronic gonadotropin (hCG). Whole cell voltage clamp technique and confocal microscopy were used to examine that $E_2$increase intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration ([C $a^{2+}$]$_{i}$ ) via voltage dependent $Ca^{2+}$ channel (VDC) and estrogen receptor (FSR), and $E_2$concentration by the use of radioimmunoassay (RIA) were examined in mouse. The results obtained were as follows: The peak of $Ca^{2+}$ current induced by $E_2$increased 122% to 1.50$\pm$0.03 nA from 1.23$\pm$0.21 nA (n=15) in the presence of 5 mM extracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration ([C $a^{2+}$]$_{o}$ ). The increased $Ca^{2+}$ current was temporally associated with $Ca^{2+}$ transients. The intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ level increased 207%~30 s following the addition of 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ $E_2$(relative fluorescence intensity: 836.4$\pm$131.2 for control, n=10, 1736.4$\pm$192.0 in the presence of $E_2$, n=10). $E_2$increased amplitude of $Ca^{2+}$ current and [C $a^{2+}$]$_{i}$ . $E_2$-induced $Ca^{2+}$ current and $E_2$concentration in blood were showed difference on the stage of embryo. These results suggest that $E_2$modulate $Ca^{2+}$ channel to increase $Ca^{2+}$ influx.$Ca^{2+}$ influx.

pH, Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli of under-utilized broiler viscera silage added with table sugar during storage at 25$^{\circ}C$ were investigated. pH of silage with 0 and 1 %(w/w) table sugar increased continuously after day 2, but that of 3, 4 and 5% remained 4.0∼4.2 after decrease from 5.2 at day 0. The Campylobacter spp. count of 0% was 8.21 at day 4, however that of 3 and 5% showed 7.56 and 7.38 logCFU/mL, respectively. The Salmonella spp. of 0% maintained 5.8∼6.8 logCFU/mL during fermentation, but that of 3 and 5% was not detected after day 4. The initial E. coli count of silage without table sugar was 5.8 log CFU/mL, but reduced to 4.1 log CFU/mL at day 2, and maintained at the level between 4.0 and 5.0 log CFU/mL, thereafter. However, E. coli was not detected in the silage with 3 and 5% table sugar after day 2. The counts of Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp. and Escherichia coli of under-utilized broiler viscera silage reduced markedly by adding table sugar. It was proved that the possibility of microbiologically safe broiler offal silage as a potential resource for animal feed materials was improved.
