This study aimed to isolate and identify freshwater algae from the organic agricultural ecosystems and investigate its biological characteristics to study the possibility of utilizing a biomass freshwater algae in organic farming. In the survey area, average water temperature was $12.4{\sim}28.2^{\circ}C$ and the pH ranges were from 6.1 to 8.5. The solid culture method is more suitable than liquid culture method for isolation of freshwater algae with lower contamination level and higher isolation frequency. A total of 115 strains were isolated from six freshwater algae habitats in nine regions in Korea. BGMM (BG11 Modified Medium) amended with NaNO3 and $KNO_3$ as a nitrogen, and $Na_2CO_3$ as carbon source was designed to isolate and culture freshwater algae. Absorbance of freshwater algae culture has increased dramatically to four days and decreased after eight days after inoculation. CHK008 of the seven isolates showed the highest absorbance in seven days after culturing in BGMM. The optimal pH of BGMM for culturing freshwater algae was pH 6-7. As light intensity increased, growth of freshwater algae increased. Among the five kinds of carbon sources, glucose and galactose promoted good growth of freshwater algae in BGMM. The colony color of purified 16 green algae isolates showed a separation of green, dark and light green, and of them, eleven algae strains showed a strong fluorescent light under fluorescence microscopy. Cell size of the green algae showed a wide range of variation depending on the species. General morphology of the green algae strains was spherical. Chlamydomonas sp. was elliptical, and Chlorella sorokiniana was ellipsoidal and cylindrical. All strains of the green algae except for Chlamydomonas sp. did not have flagella. One isolate of Chlamydomonas sp. and five isolates of C. sorokiniana secreted mucus. Sixteen isolates of 16 green algae were identified as two family and six species, Chlorella vulgalis, C. sorokiniana, C. pyrenoidosa, C. kessleri, C. emersonii, and Chlamydomonas sp. based on their morphological characteristics.

An activated sludge from alcohol fermentation was applied on rice field to determine the effect of the sludge on rice growth and its optimum application rate. The mineralization of sludge was rather rapid compared to compost and about 60% of the total nitrogen in sludge applied was decomposed. Plant growth and nitrogen content in plant increased as sludge application rate increased but the yield markedly decreased when more than 1,600kg/10a of sludge was applied. The optimum application rate was found to be 800kg/10a. Results from this experiment confirm that the sludge from alcohol fermentation is potentially useful resources for organic fertilizers and soil amendments.

Fly ash has different chemical composition depending on the type and quality of flaming coal. Fly ash is classified according to carbon content and particle size. Waste glass powder is manufactured by crushing glass. Exterior Insulation Finish System (EIFS) is generally applied by using poly-styrene foam which is economical and has excellent thermal insulation performance. However, poly-styrene foam has excellent insulation performance, but it is vulnerable to fire, which is becoming a serious problem. In this study, using a fly ash and waste glass powder to produce a finishing mortar at high temperatures. Also, High temperature strength and flame retardant properties were tested according to the cover thickness. From the test result, finishing mortar prepared using fly ash and waste glass powder is due to the improved heat resistance by alkali-activated bonding. However, since the strength decreases at high temperatures, it is necessary to select an appropriate mixing proportion.

Degradations of durability and aesthetic performance in concrete happen during service life due to surface deterioration and dirt stains. Recently, many researches have been performed on self-cleaning and surface enhancement through surface impregnant using photocatalytic reaction with VOCs(Volatile Organic Compounds) removal. This paper is for preliminary study on surface impregnation with silicate and photocatalysis - $TiO_2$. For the work, two types of silicate based impregnants(CS - Coloidal Silica and SC - Sodium Alumina Silicate) are considered. Several tests for viscosity and surface tension are performed, and pull-off test on impregnated concrete is performed. For the surface impregnated concrete, $TiO_2$ is absorbed through submerging and spraying conditions. Through compressive strength test and SEM analysis, it is evaluated that spraying $TiO_2$ on surface impregnated concrete after 30min. of drying period is very effective both for strength enhancement and surface densification.

This study was carried out to investigate the inhibitory effect of extracts from Paeoniae radix on postprandial hyperglycemia. Organic solvent (hexane, ethyl acetate, butanol, water) extracts from Paeoniae radix were fractionated by high performance liquid chromatography. These fractions were used to screen $\alpha$-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.20) inhibitors by microplate colorimetric assay. The fractions 11, 12, 18, 19 of ethyl acetate extract from Paeoniae radix showed inhibitory activity by 85%, 84%, 77%, 77% at concentration of 20 $\mu\textrm{g}$/mL, respectively. The selected fractions (no. 10~no. 19) significantly reduced by 22% the blood glucose elevation in comparison with positive control in mice loaded with maltose. The fractions of Paeoniae radix were determined in vitro inhibitory activity on $\alpha$-glucosidase and in vivo inhibition effect on blood glucose elevation in mice. Therefore, these results suggest that the extract of Paeoniae radix can be used as a new nutraceutial for inhibition on postprandial hyperglycemia as well as resource pool for lead compounds as a $\alpha$-glucosidase inhibitor.

As we observed in Irag war, air force power is integral to military operations owing to its promptness and accuracy. In this regard, strong air force power has a deterrent effect on a war. Meanwhile, as aviation industry is a key-future industry, the importance of the industry in our economy is significantly growing. Therefore, to maximize a national interest in utilizing limited aviation resources, it is necessary to establish a new system in which civil aviation and military aviation system is closely related and consolidated. Thus, our task is to find a way to enhance civil aviation industry to the extent of guaranteeing effective military operations. At the same time, civil aviation resources shall be effectively utilized for the military purposes in the event of a war. Ibis task should be carried out in a way to further efficiency for both civil and military aviation system, rather than resulting in conflicts between two syste

The studied area occupies the southern part of Haenam peninsula located in the southwestern corner of Korea. The stratigraphic sequences of the area are grouped into following three units in ascending order. (1) Late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks of Uhangri Formation which consist of the alternative beds of black shales and tuffaceous sediments, Hwangsan acidic fine grained tuffs and Jindo rhyolite flows. (2) Late Cretaceous biotite granite and acidic porphyries which intruded the Late Cretaceous sedimentary rocks. (3) Tertiary(?) pitchstone. The study purposes to delineate any of geochemical aspects on the deposition of the sequences, the average amounts of organic materials and the effect to the maturation of hydrocarbonization which has been occured by the intrusives. Sixty nine black shale samples were collected from Uhangri Formation in the northern and southern coasts of the peninsula. Organic carbons, total extracted organic matters and hydrocarbons were mainly determined by the Soxhlet extraction method, together with C-H-N elemental analyses. Based on the field and laboratory studies, the following interpretations have been obtained. (1) The paleohydrostatic condition of the sedimentation which took place was relatively calm and stable to delineate a lacustrine environment. (2) The amounts of organic material were more or less constant throughout the period of the deposition of the sediments. (3) The degree of hydrocarbonization of the Uhangri Formation in the northern coast was taken place higher than that in the southern coast due to the differences of thermal effect by the biotite granite which is assumed to be as a heat source in the area. Among the northern coast, some black shales in Uhangri and Mogsam areas which had been under the most moderate temperature environment snow symptomatic oily material, whereas, those in Sinseongri area do not, which were presumably to be intensive thermal alteration by the later acidic porphyries.

External morphology and numerical taxonomy by principal component analysis and cluster analysis were investigated to understand the taxonomic relationships on the populations of Hanabusaya asiatica from 6 different habitats. Additionally H. latisepala was used as a outgroup. The distinct characters to each habitat were not present in the measurement of 21 qualitative characters except for some native individuals in the top of Mt. Sorak and Hyangrobong based on leaf shape and bracts. This results were recognized as the continuous variations of external morphology. The populations of H. latisepala and H. asiatica were identified by calyx lobe shape. The results obtained based on the principal component(PC) analysis of treated 78 OTU were divided into two groups by PC 1,2,3, and the sums of contributions for the total variance were 50.07% (PC1 22.3% , PC2 15.7%, PC3 12.0%, respectively), and six populations were not distinctly identified as illustrated in two dimensions with PC1 and PC2. In cluster analysis based on average linkage cluster analysis and Ward's method, there were similarities in the composition of clustered taxa, and each populations were not identified.

A human resource management of the general contractors is to mostly deal with daily input by each subcontractor in construction fields. However, this way has some limitations; the identification of proper human-input and productivity, preventive activities or efforts for minimizing schedule delay. The reason why these limitations are that few systematic efforts through a coordinated field administration with the construction schedule planning and human resources. Therefore, on the basis of the construction schedule planning, human resource management of subcontractors is necessary to make for an improvement in construction schedule control. Daily Scheduling Check System(DSCS), as the linked human resources on an existed CPM scheduling software, was developed and this paper then verified validity and effectiveness of using the DSCS for the framework of some actual apartment construction projects

세계적인 자원고갈과 지구온난화와 같은 환경문제가 발생됨에 따라 대체에너지 개발에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 섬유소 기질을 이용한 바이오에탄올 생산은 세계적으로 막대한 자원이 있으며 광합성에 의해 재생산되는 무한한 재원으로서 환경적으로도 대기오염물질을 적게 배출하여 유용한 에너지원으로 각광받고 있다. 하지만 섬유소 기질은 cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin과 같은 고분자 화합물이 유기적으로 결합된 단단한 결정구조로 이루어져 있어 이를 분해하여 원하는 물질을 얻기 위해서는 전처리 과정이 필요하다. 전처리 공정은 바이오에탄올을 생산하는 당화 및 발효공정의 효율 및 반응시간 단축에 기여하며, 특히 섬유소 기질일 경우에는 필수불가결한 공정이다. 전처리 공정은 물리적, 화학적, 생물학적 방법으로 나누어지며, 이러한 방법들 중 기질의 특성과 처리효율에 따라 기술들을 병합하여 사용하기도 한다. 이에 본 연구에서는 산 처리, 암모니아 처리, 과산화수소 처리 및 효소를 이용한 생물학적 처리를 단독 또는 병행하여, 전환된 당 성분 및 함량을 조사함으로서 섬유소계 기질인 채소 음식물류 쓰레기를 대상으로 바이오에탄올을 경제적으로 생산하기 위한 적합한 전처리법을 검토하였다. 전처리 방법별 당화율을 살펴보면, 산 처리와 암모니아-과산화수소-계면활성제 처리가 각각 65.3 % 및 65.7 %로 가장 높았으며, 과산화수소 처리는 16.2 %로 가장 낮았다. 반면 전처리 공정 없이 효소를 이용한 당화만을 실시한 경우에는 4.3 %의 낮은 당화율을 나타내었다. 섬유소계 기질의 전처리 효율을 향상시키기 위해 첨가하는 계면활성제의 효과는 암모니아-과산화수소 및 암모니아-과산화수소-계면활성제 처리의 당화율을 비교한 결과, 뚜렷한 효과를 확인할 수 없었다. 전처리 방법별 당의 성분 및 함량을 비교한 결과 육탄당은 암모니아-과산화수소-계면활성제 전처리에서 가장 많이 검출되었다. 오탄당은 산 처리 후 그 함량이 현저히 높았으며, 오탄당 중 xylose의 함량이 60.49 mg/g로 가장 많이 차지하고 있었다. 이 결과로부터 전처리 방법에 관계없이 당화율은 유사한 수준을 보이지만, 당화된 당의 성분 및 함량에는 큰 차이가 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이당류의 경우 과산화수소 및 암모니아-과산화수소 처리를 제외한 나머지 전처리 방법에서 유사한 수준을 나타내었다. 암모니아 처리 및 과산화수소 처리를 순차적으로 병행한 암모니아-과산화수소 처리에서는 각각의 처리시보다 육탄당의 함량은 증가하였으나 암모니아 처리시보다 이당류의 함량은 감소한 것으로 나타났다.
