Nylon직포의 표면을 친수화 하기 위하여 동시조사법으로 Acrylic acid를 방사선 graft중합시켰다. Monomer용액속서 침지된 Nylon직포를 공기중 또는 진공하에서 ${\gamma}$-선으로 조사시켰다. 직포 표면에 형성된 Polyacrylic acid는 10$0^{\circ}C$의 sodium hydroxide용액(0.1%)으로 대부분 추출되었다. 접목 반응된 생성물의 화학적 조성을 측정하였다. 접목반응된 Polymer와 방사선 처리를 하지 않은 polyamide를 비교하여 볼 때 흡수성이라든가 대전성은 증진되었다.

In this paper, we evaluated the mechanical and dielectric properties of LDPE depend on $Co_{60}$${\gamma}$-irradiation doses. The chemical analyses for FT-IR, gel content, the mechanical properties for elongation at break and the dielectric parameters for permittivity, tan$\delta$ were discussed as a function of irradiation doses. Test result presented that elongation at break of irradiated LDPE was inversely proportional to gel content. For dielectric analyses, permittivity showed a salient characteristic for various irradiation doses, it was related to polar groups caused radiation degradation and tan$\delta$ of irradiated LDPE increased with irradiation doses.

LiF(Mg,Cu,Na,Si) 형광체의 ${\gamma}$선과 $\beta$선에 대한 TSEE 특성을 조사하였다. 상(60)Co ${\gamma}$선에 대한 감도는 약 450 counts/mR이었고, 여러 가지 $\beta$선에 대한 TSEE 에너지 의존성은 $\beta$입자의 평균에너지 0.02MeV에서 0.8MeV 사이에서 $\pm$10%이었다. 그리고 제작된 형광체 앞면에 7mg.cm 상(-2)의 인체 등가물질을 두 면 입사 $\beta$입자의 에너지에 무관하게 피부 흡수 선량을 측정할 수 있었다.

Studies were Performed to determine whether the water fraction of Panax ginseng Protected radiation damage to hair medullar cells of N:GP(s) mice after in vivo irradiation with $^{60}Co{\;}{\gamma}-rays$. The hair follicles in the middle of the growth cycle were analysed 3 days after 3 Gy irradiation for the changes in the number of cells in the forming medulla of the hair in the region just above the germinal matrix of the growing (anagen) hair follicle. The radioprotective effect of ginseng was compared with the irradiation control. The medullar cell count per unit length ($100{\;}\mu\textrm{m}$) of hair follicle was higher in the pretreated-groups of ginseng, both oral (2 mg/ml of drinking water, p<0.05) and intraperitoneal (0.3 mg/head, p<0.001) treatments, than the irradiation control. These data suggested that the water fraction of Panax ginseng may reduce cell damages on the body surface caused by ${\gamma}-rays$.

Bacillus sp. 79-23 spores were irradiated with $^{60}Co$ gamma-rays at doses ranging from 0.5 to 5 kGy. Following gamma-irradiation, seven mutant strains were isolated by scoring the halo sizes formed around the colonies grown on LB agar plates containing 4% carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and trypan blue. The mutant strains showed a 1.5 to 2-fold increase in carboxymethylcellulase (CMCase) activity over the parent strain. Wheat bran acted as an effective inducer for CMCase production in the parent and mutant strains. Mutant strains 68 and 70 were identified as exhibiting higher CMCase activities than those of other mutants in LB media both with and without 3% wheat bran. In addition, these strains seem to produce substantially lower amounts of capsular materials, whereas the parent strain produced large amounts of them in both liquid and solid LB media. In flask cultures, the CMCase production by mutants 68 and 70 reached maximum levels of 17.5 unit/ml and 15.7 unit/ml, respectively, in an LB medium containing 3% wheat bran.

A new dyed polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film dosimeter based on 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MMT) tetrazolium dye is proposed in this study for measuring high gamma radiation dose. Gamma cell irradiator that contains Co-60 gamma-ray source was used to expose the novel MMT-PVA films to different doses up to 25 kGy. The changed in optical property of irradiated and unirradiated films were characterized by UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The results show that the dose sensitive and the linear range of irradiated films were increased considerably with increase of MMT concentration from 1 to 5 mM. The dose response of dyed PVA film changed substantially with changing relative humidity (12-74%) as well as irradiation temperature (10-40 ℃). The absorbance of the unirradiated films does not change up to 10 days in dark while a significant increase in their absorbance was reported for similar films under fluorescent light. The irradiated dosimeters that kept in dark showed a perfect stability for 54 days. It was found that no obvious impact of dose rate on the irradiated MMT-PVA film dosimeters.

The virtual Frisch-grid method for room-temperature radiation detectors has been widely used because of its simplicity and high performance. Recently, side electrodes were separately attached to each surface of the detectors instead of covering the entire detector surface with a single electrode. The side-electrode structure enables the measurement of the three-dimensional (3D) gamma-ray interaction in the detector. The positional information of the interaction can then be utilized to precisely calibrate the response of the detector for gamma-ray spectroscopy and imaging. In this study, we developed a 3D position-sensitive 5 × 5 × 12 mm³ cadmium-zinc-telluride (CZT) detector and applied a flattening method to correct detector responses. Collimated gamma-rays incident on the surface of the detector were scanned to evaluate the positional accuracy of the detection system. Positional distributions of the radiation interactions with the detector were imaged for quantitative and qualitative evaluation. The energy spectra of various radioisotopes were measured and improved by the detector response calibration according to the calculated positional information. The energy spectra ranged from 59.5 keV (emitted by ²⁴¹Am) to 1332 keV (emitted by ⁶⁰Co). The best energy resolution was 1.06% at 662 keV when the CZT detector was voxelized to 20 × 20 × 10.

In order to comply with revised national regulationson radiological protection and to implement recent nuclear data and dose conversion factors, KOPEC developed a new point kernel gamma and beta ray shielding analysis computer program. This new code, named VisualShield, adopted mass attenuation coefficient and buildup factors from recent ANSI/ANS standards and flux-to-dose conversion factors from the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) Publication 74 for estimation of effective/equivalent dose recommended in ICRP 60. VisualShieid utilizes graphical user interfaces and 3-D visualization of the geometric configuration for preparing input data sets and analyzing results, which leads users to error free processing with visual effects. Code validation and data analysis were performed by comparing the results of various calculations to the data outputs of previous programs such as MCNP 4B, ISOSHLD-II, QAD-CGGP, etc.

The filter elution technique was used to assay $^{60}Co$ $\gamma$ ray-induced DNA strand breaks(SB) in EL4 mouse leukemia cell and mouse spleen lymphocyte. The lymphocytes were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS, $20{\mu}g/ml$) to label $[^3H]$ thymidine. EL4 cells and lymphocytes in suspension were exposed at $0^{\circ}C$ to 0Gy, 1Gy, 5Gy, 10Gy or l5Gy for DNA single strand breaks(SSB) assay and 0Gy, 25Gy, 50Gy, 75Gy or 100Gy for DNA double strand breaks(DSB) assay of $^{60}Co$ radiation and elution procedure was performed at pH12.1 and 9.6. The number of DNA strand breaks increased with increasing doses of r rays. The strand scission factor(SSF) was estimated in each experiment (eluted volume 21ml). The slope of SSB EL4 cells was $0.01301{\pm}0.00096Gy^{-1}$ (n=5), the slope of SSB for lymphocytes was $0.01097{\pm}0.00091Gy^{-1}$ (n=5) and the slope of DSB for lymphocytes was $0.001707{\pm}0.0000573Gy^{-1}$ (n=5). Thus EL4 cells were more sensitive to induction of DNA SSB by ionizing radiation than lymphocytes (p<0.005). The ratio of slope of dose-response relationship (SSF versus dose) of lymphocytes DNA SSB as compared with the slope of DNA DSB was 6.4.

본 논문에서는 KrF 레이저를 이용한 격자 공정 후 고온 어닐링 온도조건에 따른 감마방사선 영향을 분석하였다. 제작된 광섬유 브래그 격자는 게르마늄(Ge)이 첨가된 동일한 광섬유에 어닐링 온도를 달리하여 제작하였으며, $Co^{60}$ 감마선원을 이용하여 약 115 Gy/min의 선량률로 총선량 약 31 kGy 감마선을 조사하였다. 격자의 안정화를 위한 고온 어닐링 공정은 광섬유 브래그 격자의 방사선 민감도 변화에 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 실험결과를 통하여, 각각 다른 온도(100, 150, $200^{\circ}C$)로 안정화시킨 광섬유 브래그 격자들은 고온에 노출될수록 방사선 민감도가 증가했으며, 어닐링 온도조건에 따라서 방사선에 의한 브래그 파장 변화는 2배 이상의 차이를 보였다.
