구봉광산의 광미와 주변 밭과 논의 토양 및 하상퇴적물에서의 중금속과 시안의 분포 및 오염도에 대해 조사하였다. 광미 중의 As, Cd, Cu, Hg, Pb, Zn및 CN￣의 평균농도는 각각 6.93$\times$$10^{3}$, 56.9, 209, 5.03, 3.25$\times$$10^{3}$, 1.89$\times$$10^{3}$, 21mg/kg이었고 Kloke가 제안한 허용기준치를 이용하여 계산한 오염지수는 42~95이었으며 pH는 약알칼리성이었다. 광산과 인접한 밭 토양 중의 중금속과 시안 함량은 논 토양보다 높았다. 하상퇴적물 중의 중금속과 시안 함량은 광미 중의 분석치정도로 많이 검출되었다.

The purpose of this research was to investigate the effects of Kami Kwiryong Tang (KKT) on the immune cells in BALB/c mice. KKT (500mg/kg) was administerd p.o. once a day for 7 days. KKT decreased the proliferation of thymocytes, but did not affect the proliferation of splenocytes. KKT enhanced the subpopulation of Th (CD4+CD8- single positive cells) cells in splenic T-lymphocytes, but decreased the subpopulation of Th cells in thymocytes. KKT enhanced the production of ${\gamma}$-interferon and interleukin-2, but did not affect the production of interleukin-4 in mice serum. KKT did not affect the production of nitric oxide, but enhanced the phagocytic activity in peritoneal macrophages. These results suggest that KKT is a potent prescription on immune response via the production of cytokines from splenic Th1 cells and the increase of phagocytic activity in vivo.

In this study, we determined the content of chitooligosaccharides (COS) in Korean commercial salt-fermented shrimps by competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (cdELISAs), using anti-COS mixture (COSM) antibody and COSM horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugate. When COS6 was spiked into salt-fermented shrimps at the level of $10-300\mu{g/g,}$ the average recovery was $120\pm19%$ ($mean\pmS.D.$). The COS contents of the 92 samples of Korean commercial salt-fermented shrimps collected during February 2000 and August 2002 were $36.3\pm20.7\mug$ COS6 equivalent/g (expressed as "$\mug/g$" hereafter). Among the samples, the COS contents of yuk-jeot ( $40.3 \pm 22.5 \mug/g, n=27$) and buksaewoojeot ($40.2 \pm 21.6 \mug/g, n=5$) were higher than the others. The COS contents of salt-fermented shrimps produced at Gwangcheon ($47.1 \pm 20.7 \mug/g, n=18$) and Gomso ($44.1 \pm 21.8 \mug/g, n=6$) areas were higher than those produced at the other areas. This is the first report to determine COS of salt-fermented shrimps by cdELISA.

온산(溫山)공업단지 조성(造成)에 따른 농작물(農作物)의 오염(汚染)가능성을 조사하기 위하여 1978년 3월부터 12월에 걸쳐 주변 농경지에서 재배된 농작물(農作物)(수도, 보리, 대두, 채소, 과일)중의 중금속 농도를 분석한 결과는 다음과 같다. 중금속 함량은 농작물의 종류, 부위, 재배지역에 따라 약간의 차이가 있었으나 일정한 경향은 찾아 볼 수 없었다. 분석한 농작물 시료의 평균치(平均値)를 보면(풍건물(風乾物)기준) As 0.23 ppm, Cd 0.46 ppm, Cu 4.88 ppm, Hg 0.09 ppm, Pb 3.86 ppm, Zn 41.3 ppm으로서 이 지역에 대한 자연함유량(自然含有量) 기준(基準)으로 이용할 수 있을 것이다.

광학헤드는 디지털 오디오 및 비디오 장치의 핵심부품으로서 일반 가전제품에서부터 컴퓨터 기억장치 및 게임기까지 광범위하게 응용되고 있으며, 광미디어의 수요가 확대됨에 따라 그 수요도 급속도로 증가되는 추세이다. 본 논문에서는 광학헤드의 핵심 구성요소인 포커스 및 트랙킹 서보용 2축 구동부를 와이어 부동형 외팔보 형태로 설계하고, 시뮤레이션 및 시제작 특성 분석을 통하여 그 설계 타당성을 검증하였다. 또한, 시제작 특성 분석을 통하여, 설계상의 원인외에 2축 구동부의 성능에 악영향을 미치는 조립공정의 인자를 파악하였다.

The Al:Au double-layer metal electrode for use in transparent, dual emission of organic light-emitting diode (OLED) was fabricated. The electrode of Al:Au metals with various thicknesses was deposited by the vacuum thermal evaporation technique. For Al thickness of 1 nm, a bottom luminance of $4880\;cd/m^2$ was observed at 8 V. Otherwise, top luminance of $2020\;cd/m^2$ were observed at 8 V. In addition, the threshold voltages of the electrodes were 2.2 V. It was forward that the inserting 1 nm Al between LiF and Au enhanced electron injection with tunneling effect.

Background and aim: Heavy metals have been recognized as toxins for centuries. Cupping therapy has been shown to aid in the excretion of accumulated fluids and toxins from the interstitial fluid. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of wet cupping therapy on blood levels of heavy metals. Methods: Thirteen healthy male individuals [mean age ${\pm}$ standard deviation, $28.47{\pm}6.18$] participated in this study. Venous blood samples were collected 5 min before and 30 days after the wet cupping therapy. Five points of the posterior neck and bilateral perispinal areas of the neck and thoracic spine were selected for cupping therapy. The levels of aluminium (Al), zinc (Zn), and cadmium (Cd) were measured using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Results: The levels of heavy metals (Al, Zn, and Cd) after cupping therapy were significantly lower than the levels before therapy. Conclusions: These results suggest that wet cupping therapy has an excretory effect on the kidney. Wet cupping therapy may clear blood from excess heavy metals.

Background: For proper monitoring of the eye lens dose, an appropriate calibration factor of a dosimeter and information about the mean energies of X-rays are indispensable. The scattered X-ray energy spectra should be well characterized in medical practices where eye lenses of medical staffs might be high. Materials and Methods: Scattered X-ray energy spectra were experimentally derived for three different types of X-ray diagnostic and therapeutic equipment, i.e., the computed tomography (CT) scan, the angiography and the fluoroscopy. A commercially available CdZnTe (CZT) spectrometer with a lead collimator was employed for the measurement of scattered X-rays, which was performed in the usual manner. Results and Discussion: From the obtained energy spectra, the mean energies of the scattered X-rays lied between 40 and 60 keV. This also agreed with that obtained by the conventional half value layer method. Conclusion: The scattered X-rays to which medical workers may be exposed in the region around the eyes were characterized by means of spectrometry. The obtained mean energies of the scattered X-rays were found to match the flat region of the dosimeter response.

To investigate the association between Korean red ginseng (KRG) intake in HIV-1 infected patients and occurrence of grossly deleted nef genes ($g{\Delta}nef$), we characterized nef genes in 10 long-term slow progressors (LTSP) infected with HIV-1 subtype B and 34 control patients. LTSP was defined whose the annual decrease in CD4 T cells was less than $20/{\mu}l$ over 10 years in the absence of antiretroviral therapy. They were treated with KRG for a prolonged period. Nef genes were amplified from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) using nested PCR and products were sequenced directly. Patient CD4 T cell counts decreased from $444{\pm}207/{\mu}l$ to $294{\pm}177/{\mu}l$ over $136{\pm}23$ months of KRG intake. This corresponds to an annual decrease in the level of CD4 T cells of $13.3/{\mu}l$. A total of 479 nef genes were amplified from 137 PBMC samples. Nine out of the 10 patients, 47 (34.3%) out of the 137 samples, and 92 out of the 479 genes revealed $g{\Delta}nef$. The deletion extended outside the nef gene in 25 $g{\Delta}nef$ obtained from 6 patients. The proportion of samples with $g{\Delta}nef$ (34.3%) was significantly higher than 4.8% in control patients (P<0.001). In addition, it significantly increased as the duration of KRG intake prolongs (P<0.01). These data suggest the possibility that occurrence of $g{\Delta}nef$ might be associated with long-term intake of KRG.

본 연구에서 고밀도 플라즈마 식각 장치를 사용한 비정질 실리콘 막의 게이트 전극선 형성공정에서 여러 가지 식각 변수가 치수 제어와 식각 속도 및 식각 선택비 등 식각 특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. $Cl_2/HBr/O_2$로 구성된 식각 기체의 전체 유량을 증가시키면 비정질 실리콘의 식각 속도가 증가하나 식각 전후의 형상치수는 변화없이 거의 일정하였다. 전체 유량을 고정시키고 $Cl_2$와 HBr 간의 유량비를 변화시키면 HBr의 유량이 커질수록 비정질 실리콘의 식각 속도가 감소하였다. $O_2$의 유량을 증가시키면 산화막의 식각 속도가 상대적으로 낮아져 식각 선택비를 증가시켜 식각 공정의 안정성을 높이나 게이트 전극선을 경사지게 하는 특성을 보인다. Source power의 증가는 비정질 실리콘 식각 속도의 증가와 더불어 형상치수의 증가를 가져오며, bias power의 증가는 비정질 실리콘과 산화막의 식각 속도를 증가시키나 식각 선택비를 크게 감소시키는 경향을 보였다.
