A method to improve internal corrosion control efficiency by adding lime and carbon dioxide, which, in turn increases the Langelier Index (LI) for filtered water at a conventional drinking water treatment plant (WTP) was investigated. The SJ WTP (Q=100,000 $m^{3}$/d) has been operating an internal corrosion control system since 2006. The system has achieved stable operation through technical development and trial and error over a period of several years. As a result of the operation, the LI of treated water has increased up to 29% by adjusting pH of filtered water to 7.8 with the addition of lime and carbon dioxide. Coupon tests in the distribution system indicated that the corrosion rate has been delayed by 24% when the internal corrosion method was implemented. The increase of LI by lime and carbon dioxide has been proven to be a practical method for controlling corrosion.

플라즈마와 혈액의 상호작용 특성을 파악하기 위해 혈액응고 실험을 하였다. 생체에 적용 가능한 바이오 플라즈마 소스를 개발하여 다양한 조건으로 혈액에 플라즈마를 조사하였다. 혈액 응고의 정량적인 측정 방법으로 혈액의 저항을 측정하였다. 본 실험에 사용된 플라즈마 제트 장치는 의료용 바늘과 유리관, 외부 접지로 이루어져 있다. 플라즈마 제트 장치는 고전압 전극이 유리관 안에 위치하고 접지 전극이 유리관 바깥에 위치한다. 의료용 바늘을 통해 Ar gas를 주입하며, 약 2 kV의 전압을 인가하여 방전시켰다. 자연적으로 혈액을 응고시킨 경우, 칼슘 클로라이드를 첨가하여 응고시킨 경우, Ar gas 및 온풍을 단독적으로 불어넣은 경우, 그리고 플라즈마 제트를 조사한 경우로 나누어 실험을 진행하였다. 두개의 떨어진 전극 사이에 일정량의 혈액을 배치시켜 저항을 측정하여 응고 정도를 파악하였다. 플라즈마 제트를 조사하였을 경우 아무것도 처리하지 않은 자연상태의 혈액보다 혈액이 응고되는 속도가 빠르게 나타났다. Ar gas와 온풍을 단독으로 불어넣어 준 경우와 혈액 표면이 응고되었으나, 약 20초가 지나면 다시 원래 상태의 혈액으로 돌아감을 확인하였다. 플라즈마 제트를 혈액에 조사했을 때는 혈액이 이전의 혈액 상태로 돌아가는 경향이 나타나지 않았다.

The Raman shift of water vapor is 3657 $cm^{-1}$, and this Raman signal can be easily separated from other Raman signals or elastic signals. However, it is difficult to make simultaneous Raman measurements on the three phases of water, namely, ice water, liquid water, and water vapor. This is because we must consider the overlap between their Raman spectra. Therefore, very few groups have attempted to make Raman simultaneous measurements even on two elements (water vapor and liquid water, or water vapor and ice water). We have made an effort to find three characteristic Raman wavelengths that correspond to the three phases of water after measuring full Raman spectra of water on particular days that are rainy, snowy or clear. Finally, we have found that the 401-nm, 404-nm, and 408-nm wavelengths are the most characteristic Raman wavelengths that are representative of the water phases when we are using the 355-nm laser wavelength for making measurements.

광포획 기술을 통하여 빛의 흡수 증가시키는 것은 고효율 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지 제작에 있어 매우 중요하다. 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지에서 일반적으로 사용되는 광포획 기술은 전면 투명전극 및 후면 반사막 표면에 패턴을 형성하는 것이며, 이때의 패턴은 불규칙하게 형성된다. 이러한 불규칙한 패턴 대신 주기적인 패턴을 형성하면 보다 효과적인 광포획 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 주기적인 패턴 형성된 유리 기판 위에 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지를 제작하여 태양전지의 광학적 특성 및 변환효율 변화를 살펴보았다. 먼저, 패턴이 형성된 유리 기판에 대한 광추적 전산모사를 통하여 광학적 특성 변화를 살펴보았으며, 실험을 통하여 태양전지를 제작하고 광학적 특성 및 변환효율을 측정하였다. 광추적 전산모사 결과와 실험을 통하여 얻은 결과를 비교 분석하여 유리 기판의 반사방지 및 광포획 효과를 알아보았으며, 박막형 비정질 실리콘 태양전지의 변환 효율에 대한 긍정적인 영향을 확인 할 수 있었다. 박막형 비정질 실리콘 태양전지 제작에는 PECVD가 사용되었으며, 태양전지의 광학적 특성 및 변환효율 측정에는 UV-VIS 분광기, 적분구, solar simulator 등이 사용되었다.

An Epidemic disease is regarded as warm disease by Korean Medicine. Warm disease is highly contagious and shows an unfavorable condition, and that is characteristic of being widely prevalent. Warm disease study cope with this epidemic disease opportunely. In the Myeong[明] and Cheong[淸] Dynasty, warm disease study got into the region of Korean medicine of today and "The Sections of Warm Disease(溫病條辨)" contributed to the cause of the study was really great. "The Sections of Warm Disease" written by Ohguktong(吳鞠通) in the Cheong Dynasty are divided into the three sections of Upper burner[上焦], Middle burner[中焦] and Lower burner[下焦]. Ohguktong, dealing with the contents of Defense-aspect[衛分], Gi-aspect[氣分], Construction-aspect[營分], Blood-aspect[血分], and so forth in all "Sections of Warm Disease", made use of Seopcheonsa(葉天士)'s Defense Gi[衛氣], Construction, and Blood pattern identification with Triple burner[三焦] pattern identification and six channel pattern identification. And he, having a correct understanding of the nature of medicine, suggested in detail that the directions of medicine and described the processing according to method and the method to take medicine. To conclude, Ohguktong(吳鞠通) Tong in "The Sections of Warm Disease" not only formulated the system of the practical theory of warm disease but also solidified the foundation covering warm disease and its treatment as well, He established the new method of treatment and formula related to warm disease and made a definite distinction between cold damage[傷寒] and warm disease[溫病].

This study attempts to analyse factors that influence the level of career decision for prospective librarians. To this end, an empirical study was conducted on the students from the department of Library & Information Science at universities located in Seoul, Gyeong Gi and Chung Cheong Areas. Exogenous variables included curriculum, career-related departmental activities, and librarian-related institutional factors. The result of analysis using the Structural Equation Model reveals that career-related departmental activities are preceding factors which affect the level of career decision and that personality types function as a modulator. This suggests that, in order to raise the career decision level, prospective librarians need to participate in career-related departmental activities, which make it easier to share information regarding career and thus enhance the level of career. Such career-related departmental activities include participating in job-oriented circles and career-consulting programs, communicating with seniors, and operating and joining career programs. Further organizational and institutional development is required : better curriculum, improved practical ability and qualifications as librarians. This study also discusses its limits and areas for future research.

We monitored the occurrence of human enteric viruses in urban rivers by cell culture-PCR and RT-nested PCR. Water samples were collected monthly or semimonthly between May 2002 and March 2003 in four urban tributaries. Enteric viruses were detected by RT-nested PCR and cell culture-PCR based on a combination of Buffalo Green monkey kidney (BGMK) and A549 cell lines, followed by phylogenetic analysis of amplicons. By RT-nested PCR analysis, 45 (77.6%), 32 (55.2%), 32 (55.2%), 26 (44.8%), 12 (20.7%), 2 (3.4%), 4 (6.9%), and 4 (6.9%) of 58 samples showed positive results with adenoviruses, enteroviruses, noroviruses (NV) genogroup I (GI) and II (GII), reoviruses, hepatitis A viruses, rotaviruses and sapoviruses, respectively. Adenoviruses were most often detected and only eight (13.8%) samples were negative for adenoviruses and positive for other enteric viruses in the studied sites. Thirty-one (77.5%) of the 40 samples were positive for infectious adenoviruses and/or enteroviruses based on cell culture-PCR, and the frequency of positive samples grown on A549 and BGMK (65.0%) was higher than that grown on BGMK alone (47.5%). The occurrence of each enteric virus, except reoviruses and hepatitis A viruses was not statistically correlated with the water temperature and levels of fecal coliforms according to Binary logistic regression model. By sequence analysis, most strains of adenoviruses and enteroviruses detected in this study are similar to the causative agent of viral diseases in Korea and most NV GI- and GII-grouped strains were closely related to the reference strains from China and Japan, and GII/4-related strains had similar sequences to strains recognized as a worldwide epidemic outbreak. Our results suggested that monitoring human enteric viruses is necessary to improve microbial quality and cell culture-PCR using the combination of A549 and BGMK cells and the adenovirus detection by PCR could be useful for monitoring viral contamination in the aquatic environment.
