  • Cop protein has been overexpressed in Escherichia coli using a T7 RNA polymerase system. Purification to apparent homogeneity was achieved by the sequential chromatography on ion exchange, affinity chromatography, and reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography system. The molecular weight of the purified Cop was estimated as 6.1 kDa by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). But the molecular mass of the native state Cop was shown to be 19 kDa by an analytical high performance size exclusion chromatography, suggesting a trimer-like structure in 50 mM Tris-HCI buffer (pH 7.5) containing 100 mM NaCl. Cop protein Was calculated to contain $39.1% {\alpha}-helix, 16.8% {\beta}-sheet$, 17.4% turn, and 26.8% random structure. The DNA binding property of Cop protein expressed in E. coli Was preserved during the expression and purification process. The isoelectric point of Cop was determined to be 9.0. The results of amino acid composition analysis and N-terminal amino acid sequencing of Cop showed that it has the same amino acid composition and N-terminal amino acid sequence as those deduced from its DNA sequence analysis, except for the partial removal of N-terminal methionine residue by methionyl-aminopeptidase in E. coli.

  • An estimation methodology of the mass and energy (M/E) release due to the main steam line break (MSLB) has been developed with the RETRAN-3D code. In the case of equipment qualification (EQ), the over-estimated temperature would exceed the design limits of some cables or valves. In order to have a more flexible EQ profiles from the MSLB M/E release, the methodology with the best-estimated code was used. The major conditions affecting the MSLB M/E were found to be the initial SG level, heat transfer between primary and secondary sides, power level, operable protection system, main or auxiliary feedwater availability, and break conditions. The RETRAN-3D models were developed for the Kori unit 1 (KRN-1) which is typical two loop Westinghouse (WH) designed plant. Particularly, a detailed model of the steam generators was developed to estimate a more realistic two-phase heat transfer effect of the steam flow. After the modeling, the methodology has been developed through the sensitivity analyses. The M/E release data generated from the analyses have been used as the input to the inside containment pressure and temperature (P/T) analysis. According to the results at the point of view containment P/T, the Kori unit 1 can have more margin of 5∼15 ㎪ in pressure and 8∼15$^{\circ}C$ in temperature.

  • BPM simulation was used in order to fabricate the LiNbO$_3$optical waveguide with optical source of He-Ne laser(λ=0.6328[$\mu$m]). we observed electric field E$_{x}$, E$_{y}$ in the x,y-direction are simulated at the LiNbO$_3$substrate (X1 55[$\mu$m]$\times$Z1 5000[$\mu$m]), where the depth, width and buffer layer of waveguide are 0.2[$\mu$m],4[$\mu$m] and 0.02[$\mu$m] respectively. By applying these parameters of single waveguide to simulate a X-switch, we have chosen index change of 0.002, width of 3[$\mu$m] and angle of 0.4$^{\circ}$~0.6$^{\circ}$of optical waveguide and under these conditions, optical beam propagates cross-side at 0.4$^{\circ}$. When applied switching voltage of 25[V], optical beam of X-switch turns cross-side to bar-side at intersection angle 0.4$^{\circ}$, index change of 0.002, waveguide width of 3[$\mu$m], electrode gap 2[$\mu$m]. By the above results, we can obtain design conditions of theoretical analysis of an X-switch optical waveguide.e.e.

  • As a result of this study, DPPH radical scavenging activity was 81.8% at a concentration of 100 ㎍/mL of Alpinia galanga L. rhizome 70% ethanol extract (AG.E), and ABTS+ radical scavenging activity was confirmed to be 99.8%, similar to L-Ascorbic acid (AA), at a low concentration of 50 ㎍/mL AG.E. To measure anti-aging activity, collagenase and elastase inhibitory activities were measured and AG.E showed higher inhibitory effects than epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) starting at a low concentration of 50 ㎍/mL. In particular, AG.E showed inhibitory effects more than three times that of EGCG at a concentration of 500 ㎍/mL. In order to verify anti-aging effect of AG.E in CCD-986sk cell, good anti-aging effect was obtained in various experiments stimulated with UVB. In a gene expression analysis experiment using RT-PCR, the COL1A mRNA expression level was found to increase 2.90 times compared to no addition at a low concentration of 20 ㎍/mL AG.E, confirming the possibility of developing it as a good functional material related to anti-aging. As a basic study on temporal biological activity preservation ratio of material when applied to formulations, AG.E, and AA were added to a stable W/O type emulsion and stored in a thermostat at 25 ℃ for 60 days. As a result of measuring DPPH and ABTS+ radical scavenging activities on the 1st, 30th, and 60th days, it was confirmed that antioxidant effects are maintained at a high level over time in formulations.

  • Endocrine disruptors were measured with GC/MS in effluents discharged from sewage treatment processes in pilot scale for the purpose of water reuse. From that analysis, we compared the removal rate of them by treatment processes. Nonylphenol was mainly detected in effluents and high concentration from 0.36 to 0.94 ${\mu}g/L$. $17{\beta}$-estradiol(E2) and $17{\alpha}$-ethynylestradiol(EE2) were detected as below the limit of detection in effluent. Endocrine disruptors were removed effectively in the range from 50 to 100% by treatment process. EC50 value($9.0{\times}10^{-3}$ M) of $17{\beta}$-estradiol(E2) by dose response curve of E-screen assay has higher than that of bisphenol A($2.736{\times}10^{-5}M$) and p-octylphenol($9.760{\times}10^{-6}$ M). These results showed that alkylphenols have lower relative estrogen potency than other estrogens such as $17{\beta}$-estradiol(E2). Calculated estrogenic activity(ng-EEQ/L) was 2 times higher than measured total estrogenic activity which estimated by E-screen assay. Moreover estrogenic activity of effluent by treatment process showed very low as below 1 ng-EEQ/L.

  • The radiological safety of workers in a newly developed microwave-based spent resin treatment facility was assessed based on work location and operational scenarios. The results show that the remote-operation room worker was exposed to maximum annual dose of 3.19E+00 mSv, which is 15.9% of the dose limit, thereby confirming radiological safety. Inside the pathway, annual doses in the range of 7.87E-02-2.07E-01 mSv were measured initially at the mock-up tank and later at the point between the spent resin separation and treatment parts. The dose of emergency maintenance workers was below the dose limit (4.08E-03-4.99E+00 mSv); however, before treatment (separation and microwave), the dose of maintenance and repair workers exceeded the dose limit. The doses of the effluent removal workers at the zeolite and activated carbon storage tank and spent resin storage tank were the lowest at 2.79E-01-2.87E-01 mSv and 9.27E-01 mSv in "1 h" and "4-5 h of operation", respectively. The immediately lower and upper layers of the facility room exhibited the highest annual doses of 1.84E+00 and 3.22E+00 mSv, respectively. Through this study, a scenario that can minimize the dose considering the movement of spent resin through the facility can be developed.
