In vivo labeling of bone with fluorochromes is a widely used method for assessment of bone formation and remodeling processes. In particular, calcein is used as a marker for identification of bone growth, which is indicated by a green color. Calcein green is a calcium chelator that adheres to regions of mineralizing bone thereby allowing localization of new bone. Bone formation and remodeling in vivo can be assessed by calcium-binding calcein labeling. In this study, changes in the femoral bone of a normal mouse model at both 4 and 8 weeks were evaluated using calcein labeling. Intense deposition of calcium in the bone was observed after application for 8 weeks. A mouse model is suitable for application in in vivo experiments using genetically modified mice, such as knock-out mice, however data regarding femoral cross sectional bone in young mice are limited. The current study confirmed calcein as a useful marker for identification of bone growth, which was indicated by a green color on photomicrographs. This methodological process may provide basic information for interpreting bone formation and regeneration to pharmacologic or genetic manipulation in mice.

하천으로 유입되는 오염물질은 유수의 흐름에 따라 이송되며 혼합된다. 이러한 오염물질의 해석을 위해서는 확산 또는 분산계수 산정이 필요하다. 오염물질의 거동과 관련된 실험적 연구는 방사선 동위원소와 형광성 물질을 이용하여 수행되어 왔으나, 추적자 실험은 많은 비용 및 인력을 요하며, 고정식으로 설치한 계측장비로부터 수집한 시계열 농도자료만을 이용하여 분석하기 때문에 공간적 분포에 대한 자료 취득은 어렵다는 한계가 있다. 하천의 오염물질을 모니터링하기 위해서는 공간을 이동하는 입자의 관점에서 물리량을 표현하는 Lagrangian 방식보다 특정 위치에서 물리량 변화를 표현하는 Eulerian 방식이 적합하다. 그러나 드론을 활용한 하천원격탐사 연구의 대부분은 이동식 플랫폼으로 활용되어 특정 시간에 공간적 분광특성의 분포 파악이 한정적이며, 동일 지점에서 분광특성의 시간적 변화를 파악할 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 면단위를 측정하는 이동식 플랫폼의 한계를 극복하고 하천 모니터링에 적합한 Eulerian 방식을 적용하기 위하여 CCTV 형태의 고정식 초분광촬영 플랫폼을 도입하였다. 본 연구에서는 하천으로 유입되는 오염물질의 거동을 분석하기 위하여 자연하천에서 형광성물질인 Rhodamine WT를 이용하여 추적자 실험을 수행하였으며, 접촉식 센서를 활용한 농도측정과 동시에 드론과 초분광센서를 활용하여 CCTV 형태의 고정식 초분광영상을 획득하였다. 실험결과 도출된 전통적인 방식의 분산계수 산정과 시공간 초분광영상을 활용한 분산계수 산정을 비교하여 오염물질 거동 분석에 초분광영상 활용의 가능성을 검토하였다. 본 연구에서 제시한 드론기반 시공간 초분광영상 기법을 교량이나 기타 하천구조물에 초분광 센서를 설치하여 CCTV형식으로 활용할 경우, 공단이나 하·폐수 처리장 등의 점오염원이 밀집해 있는 지역에 직접 설치하여 화학사고의 감지 및 오염물질의 유출 확인 및 조류, 부유사 등의 다양한 수질항목의 농도 변화 감지가 가능하고, 수심변화 감지로 장기적으로 활용할 경우 특정 지점에서의 하상변동 조사가 가능하다. 또한, 오염물질의 유출 사고 발생 등의 사람이 직접 접근이 불가능한 지역에 드론을 활용하여 초분광센서를 이용한 오염물질 감지가 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The first laboratory culture of host-parasite system of Prorocentrum minimum- Amoebophrya sp. was established by single cell isolation method. Here, we report the life cycle stages of the parasitic dinoflagellate. Amoebophrya sp. of the red tide dinoflagellate P. minimum as observed by light and epifluorescence microscopy. Infections developed inside the nucleus of P. minimum. The trophont developed to occupy almost all the intracellular space of the host at its late stage. The fully developed trophont finally ruptured through the host cell. “Vermiform stage”, the free-swimming extracellular lift cycle stage is followed by another stage for the sudden release of many individual dinospores. Our laboratory strain of the host-parasite system for P. minimum, a causative species fur the huge red tides in spring and summer in Korean coastal waters, could be a useful living material for the in situ biological control of harmful algal blooms.

Recently, securing a vast land in the land region becomes more difficult and efforts to seek its alternation in the sea area have been increased. As a consequence, the coastal region has been faced to extensive beach erosion problems. In planning offshore structures such as artificial islands, it is necessary to forecast the influence of the structure construction exerting on the beach erosion of the adjacent coast. In the present study, the sediment movement pattern behind offshore structure was examined through a series of three dimensional movable bed experiments, so as to develop the numerical model which forecasts morphological change including beach erosions. The experimental results reveal that the sediment movement patterns of the beach line side and the depth region are separated at a certain boundary line. In details, at the beach side including swash zone the sediment movement becomes dominant, which is governed by a relation between depth contours and incident wave directions, while at the depth region the bed load and suspended load due to the orbit motion of waves are carried by nearshore currents, and both movements are clearly separated at a specified boundary that is related to partial standing wave from the beach. It is expected that these results can be effectively used for verification of a numerical model on morphological change of the coast.

Gwanghwadang-Wonsam was designated as National Folklore Cultural Heritage No. 52 in 1979, it is in good condition. However, a problem is the attached a phoenix insignia badge that did not exist when it was designated recently. As it became known as the only purple Wonsam artifact with "phoenix insignia", raising the need for its conservation. In this regard, scientific analysis was required to correct misinformation about designated cultural assets and restore the original designated state by analyzing the history of the Gwanghwadang-Wonsam, other relics of the phoenix insignia and its making design patterns. An X-ray fluorescence analysis was used to confirm that the Phoenix insignia's metal threads were titanium-plated silver. Phoenix insignia using titanium-plated gold thread was not identified in Gwanghwadang-Wonsam photographs in 1986, and the TiN-type membrane plating method was used in various industries in the 1990s, which can be estimated to be attached in the early and mid-1990s. Especially, the scientific analysis results from the X-ray fluorescence analysis in this study provide key evidence for conservation processing. This study demonstrates the importance of investigating relics and similar artifacts in the conservation process of inherited relics and as a precedent for restoration that corrects misinformation about designated cultural properties.

PDP, FED, 그리고 VFD와 같은 마이크로 전자디스플레이 장치를 제작하기 위한 가장 중요한 기술중에 하나인 패널 내를 고진공으로 만드는 것과 초기의 진공을 유지하는 것이다. PDP 디스플레이는 전면판과 후면판으로 구성되어 있다. 전면판은 ITO전극, 절연체 그리고 MgO보호막으로 구성되어 있으며, 후면판은 어드레스 전극, 반사층, 격벽, 그리고 형광체층이 있다. 기존의 방식은 대기에서 프릿 글라스를 이용하여 두 장의 유리를 봉입하고, 후면판 모서리 부분에 있는 구멍에 배기 글라스 튜브를 붙이고, 튜브를 통해서 배기하고, 플라즈마 가스를 채우고, 최종적으로 tip-off를 한다. 이러한 기존의 방식을 통해서는 배기 컨덕턴스의 한계로 얻을 수 있는 초기 진공도에 한계가 있다. 아울러 두 장의 유리사이는 150$\mu$m 정도의 간격으로 되어 있고, 이웃한 격벽사이는 320$\mu$m 정도의 미세한 공간이 주어지는 구조가 컨덕턴스를 저하시킨다. 이와 같은 초기 진공도의 한계성을 극복하기 위한 연구로서, PDP 패널을 구성하는 두 장의 글라스를 진공 챔버내에서 IR heater를 이용하여 실장하였다. 대개 PbO, ZnO, SiO2,, 그리고 B？로 구성된 프릿 글라스를 대기에서 전면판에 dispensing하고 가소한다. 그리고 프릿 글라스가 형성된 전면판과 후면판을 loading, align 한 다음, 2 10-7torr까지 펌핑한 후 heating, holding 그리고 cooling 공정을 수행하므로 써 두 장의 유리를 실장하였다. 그러나 온도의 non-uniformity, 프릿 성분에 따라서 crack과 기포문제가 진공 실장과정에서 발생하였다. 이와 같은 문제를 개선하기 위해 프릿 글라스의 새로운 조성과 온도 uniformity를 유지하므로써, 프릿 글라스의 기포와 crack 발생없이 재현성 있게 진공 실장하였다. Leak channel 형성유무를 검증하기 위하여 챔버 자체의 펌핑 속도와 제작된 패널의 펌핑 속도를 비교하므로써, leak channel형성 유무를 평가할 수 있는 방법을 이용하였다. 이와 같은 방법을 이용하여, crack 또는 기포가 있는 패널은 leak channel을 형성하여 패널내의 진공을 유지할 수 없음을 검증하였고, crack 또는 기포가 없는 패널은 leak channel없이 패널내의 진공을 유지할 수 있음을 검증하였다. 결과적으로 진공 인-라인 실장시 가장 중요한 요인인 프릿의 변화를 분석하므로써, 고진공을 요구하는 FPD(PDP, FED, VFD)에 적합하게 적용할 수 있으며, 아울러 실장시 진공도를 개선하므로 패널내부의 오염을 최소화하여 디스필레이로서의 효율을 극대화할 수 있을 것이다.
