The rate of damaged soybean seeds by pod borer averaged 7.4% with the range of 1.2%-21.3% and tended to be higher in the lines with hairy pods comparing to those with hairless pods. The susceptibility of pod borer was negatively correlated with the pod setting date. while was not significantly affected by the weather conditions during the pod setting period.

In this study, a crosslinked poly(styrene-butadiene-styrene) [SBS] block copolymers were prepared by using gamma ray irradiation method. The effects of various radiation doses on the degree of crosslinking, thermo property, and morphology of crosslinked SBS block copolymer were investigated. The degree of crosslinking of crosslinked SBS block copolymers were measured by gel-fraction and FT-IR. It was found that the degree of crosslinking of crosslinked SBS block copolymers increases with increase of the irradiation dose while the TGA result shows that the initial degradation temperature of irradiated SBS block copolymer was shifted to lower temperature with increasing irradiation dose. These results indicate that degradation reaction also occurs when SBS block copolymer is exposed to gamma ray irradiation for crosslinking reaction. The SAXS and FE-SEM results indicate that the phase separation of the styrene block and butadiene block was reduced with increasing irradiation dose.

We developed an emergency national manual for preservation of cultural heritage using irradiation disinfection technic under flood disaster. And we examined its practicality with a critical radiation dose on fungi that occur at water-logged event in order to prevent fungal damage that occurs during submersion. The X-ray irradiation for this experiment was conducted at the Production Technology Research Institute located in Yeongcheon, Gyeongsangbuk-do. A disinfection critical dose of 12 kGy was selected for two types of fungi known to spread rapidly and are resistant to radiation to submerged cultural properties, and this experiments were conducted by setting a target dose of 12kGy at 8.37mA at 5MeV. Under the above conditions, only continuity of irradiated samples were completely disinfected. This suggests that continuity of irradiation is important for fungal disinfection.

The citrus fruits were irradiated at different doses (25~200 kGy) to remove pesticides such as diuron, dichlorbenil, trifluralin, dimetoate, chlorothalonil, fenitrothion, bromacil, phenthoate and norflurazon, and the rates of degradation were detected by using gas chromatography electron capture detector (GC-ECD). The limit of detection (LOD) was in the range of 0.007~0.105 ppm. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was in the range of 0.024~0.352 ppm, and the recoveries of 9 pesticides were in the range of 71.5~106.5%. The results demonstrated that the ${\gamma}$-irradiation was effective method to remove pesticides such as diuron, dichlorbenil, trifluralin, dimetoate, chlorothalonil, fenitrothion, and norflurazon. However, the bromacil and phenthoate showed lower removal rates in the rate of 40.5 and 54.8%, respectively, at 200 kGy irradiation.

A comparative experiment was conducted to compare the effects of persulfate with gamma radiation on the disinfection efficiencies against Escherichia coli K12. The microorganism used for the disinfection experiments were prepared by transferring a bacterial stock culture into a 50 ml nutrient broth an incubating for 24 hrs at $37^{\circ}C$. The initial concentration of the harvested culture was approximately $10^7$ to $10^9CFU\;ml^{-1}$. The culture solution was irradiated at different absorbed doses of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.7, and 1 kGy, respectively. The disinfection efficiency of persulfate with gamma radiation of 0.3 kGy against Escherichia coli K12 was 97.2% and while the gamma radiation only was 90.01% at 0.3 kGy. Therefore, it could be thought that addition of persulfate in the disinfection of Escherichia coli K12 can enhance the disinfection efficiency when it is used together with gamma radiation.

This study evaluated the cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory activities of natural herbal extracts including Houttuynia cordata and Eucommia ulmoides against human mast cell (HMC-1). Houttuynia cordata (HC) and Eucommia ulmoides(EU) were extracted with distilled water (at $75^{\circ}C$) and then freeze-dried for 5 days. Finally, the mixture of HC and EU were sterilized by ${\gamma}$-rays irradiation. Cytotoxicity of the mixture against HMC-1 cell was measured using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. In addition, inflammatory mediator cytokines such as TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6 and IL-8 were evaluated by ELISA kit on the HMC-1 cells with calcimycin A23187 and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). The results showed that mixture of HC and EU had no cytoxicity and reduced TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-6, IL-8 response on HMC-1 cells.

In Shinjeong-dong of Jeongeup, there are three government-supported research institutes and an RFT industrial complex which is currently being established. Increased human activities can affect flora and fauna as a man-made pressure onto the region. As a baseline study, status of exotic plants was investigated prior to a full operation of the RFT industrial complex. A total of 54 species and 1 variety of naturalized or introduced plants were found in the study area. Among them, three species (Ambrosia artemisifolia var. elatior, Rumex acetocella and Aster pilosus) belong to 'nuisance species', and four species(Phytolacca americana, Iopomoea hederacea, Ereechtites hieracifolia and Rudbeckia laciniata) to 'monitor species' designated by the ministry of Environment. Some of naturalized trees and plants were intentionally introduced in this area, while others naturally immigrated. Physalis angulata seemes to immigrate in the study area in the form of mixture with animal feeds as its distribution coincided with the transportation route of the animal feeds. Liquidambar styraciflua is amenable to the ecological investigation on the possible expansion of the species to the nearby Naejang National Park as its leave shape and autumn color are very similar to those of maple trees. The number of naturalized plants around the RFT industrial complex will increase with an increase in floating population, in human activities in association with constructions of factories and operations of the complex. The result of this study provides baseline data for assessing the ecological change of the region according to the operation of the RFT industrial complex.

This study was conducted to analyze the protective capacity of cyanidin-3-glucoside (C3G), which is rich in mulberry and blackberry as an anthocyanin pigment. In this study, we found that treatment with C3G significantly reduced ROS production in hydrogen peroxide $(H_2O_2)-treated$ HepG2 cells in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, treatment with C3G significantly increased the cell viability in a dose-dependent manner in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells. Moreover, treatment with C3G dose-dependently decreased the release of LDH and activation of caspase-3 in HepG2 cells treated with $H_2O_2$. Furthermore, the DNA damage in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells was decreased by C3G treatment when compared with the control group in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally, treatment with C3G recovered the activity of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and catalase in $H_2O_2-treated$ HepG2 cells. To summarize, these results suggest that C3G protects cells from $H_2O_2-induced$ oxidative damage by activating antioxidant enzymes.
