This research was about T-N removal efficiency of oxic reactor in which fixed media submerged from Membrane BNR(An+Ax+Ox) process. This experiment was implemented by using fixed media and changing DO concentration in the oxic reactor. Nitrification efficiencies of all modes were more than 98%. When no media was in the oxic reactor, T-N removal efficiency was only 47.4%, while it were shown from 60.3% to 67.4% with packed media, which indicated improved efficiency of 27~42%. The removal efficiencies of TCOD and BOD were more than 89%, 98% respectively, which could satisfy the guideline of advanced sewage reclamation by Department of Environment. When DO concentration in the packed oxic-media tank was 0.5~1.0 mg/L, T-N removal efficiency was low, which resulted from insufficient nitrification in the oxic reactor. Therefore, DO concentration of bulk solution needs to be kept more than 1.0 mg/L to induce higher nitrification efficiency in the reactor in which media was submerged. Also, the selection of DO concentration is important to prevent media from being clogged.

We have performed dispersion polymerization of acrylamide in tert-butyl alcohol/water mixture-using hydroxypropyl cellulose and ammonium persulfate as the stabilizer and the initiator, respectively - to study the effects that the concentration of monomer, initiator, and stabilizer, the tert-butyl alcohol/water ratios as polymerization media, and the reaction temperature have on, among other things, the polymerization kinetics, particle sizes, and molecular weights. The polymerization rate increased upon increasing the concentration of the monomer, initiator, and stabilizer, the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, and the polymerization temperature. The average particle size of the lattices increased upon increasing the concentration of initiator, the polymerization temperature, and the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, but it decreased upon increasing the concentration of monomer and stabilizer. The viscosity-average molecular weight increased upon increasing the concentration of monomer and stabilizer and the water content in the tert-butyl alcohol/water media, but it decreased upon increasing both the concentration of initiator and the polymerization temperature.

The mutan containing $\alpha$-1,3 bond is an insoluble portion of glucan which is the main component of dental plaque. The secretion of mutanase was assessed with mutan-digesting Streptomyces isolated from soil, and the factors affecting its activity was studied, obtaining the following result. Mutan-digesting Streptomyces was identified as Streptomyces exfoliatus by its characteristics. The effect of dextranase was identified on the media containing blue dextran. A clear zone was produced by Streptomyces exfoliatus on the media containing blue mutan, so showing the secretion of mutanase. A clear zone was significantly produced on the media overlayed with agar containing blue mutan. A clear zone was produced at 2 days after the inoculation of Streptomyces exfoliatus on the media containing below a concentration of 0.025% glucose, at 3 days on the media containing 0.05 % glucose, and at 4 days on the media containing 0.1 % glucose. Mutan-digestion wasn't appeared early by adding other carbohydrates. The higher concentration of peptone, the later appearance of clear zone was on the media containing below a concentration of 0.1 % peptone. These results indicated that the secretion of mutanase was identified from mutan-digesting Streptomyces on the media containing blue mutan, and a clear zone was appeared lately on the media containing higher amount of glucose.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of lipid on cellular senescence, lipid peroxide production, and morphological changes. For this study we used primary skin fibroblasts from neonate rats grown in media various lipid contents. Fibroblasts were cultured until they lost their proliferation potential either in control medium (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium supplement with 10% fetal bovine serum) or in media supplemented with various concentrations of lipid-cholesterol rice component from bovine serum. Cumulative population doublings(CPD, as an index of cellular life span), and cellular thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS, as an index of lipid peroxide) concentrations were measured and morphological changes were observed. CPD were shortened with increasing lipid concentration in media ; 28.12 for cells grown in control medium and 13.42, 11.42, and 6.19 for those grown in 0.1%, 1% and 5% lipid rich components containing media, respectively. Cellular proliferation ratios were those grown in 5% lipid rich components containing media were delayed and they were degenerated soon. TBARS concentrations were increased with increasing concentration of lipid in media. Morphological changes were observed in cells grown in control medium by cellular senescence. Especially lipid droplets were observed in cells grown in 5% lipid rich components containing media. Therefore it seems that lipid contents in media had an effect on cellular proliferation and cellular life span, possibly via lipid peroxide production.

본 연구의 목적은 해외유료방송의 시장집중과 시장성과 간의 실증적인 관계분석을 통해 국내 미디어산업의 바람직한 규제 및 정책 방향을 고찰해 보는 것이다. 세계적으로 방송통신이 융합되어 규제가 완화되고 있음에도 불구하고, 국내의 경우에는 미디어 시장이 특정사업자에 집중될 경우 시장 비효율이 발생하고 다양성이 훼손된다는 전제 하에, 여전히 시장집중현상을 집중적으로 규제하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 전 세계 17개 유료방송시장을 대상으로 1위 사업자의 시장점유 정도가 시장가격과 서비스 보급에 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다. 조사결과 시장집중 현상이 초래되어도 가격이 상향되거나 서비스 보급이 지연되는 않는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구결과, 시장성과에 영향을 주는 요인들이 다각화되었기 때문에 단순히 시장집중만을 규제하면 기술혁신 침체와 같은 부작용도 발생하는 것을 포함하여 다양한 시사점들이 도출되었다.

Targeting the cystine/glutamate exchange transporter, system x_c^-, is a promising anticancer strategy that induces ferroptosis, which is a distinct form of cell death mediated by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. The concentration of ⳑ-cystine in culture medium is higher than the physiological level. This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of ⳑ-cystine concentration on the efficacy of ferroptosis inducers in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. This study showed that treatment with sulfasalazine or erastin, a system x_c^- inhibitor, decreased the viability of Huh6 and Huh7 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and the degree of growth inhibition was greater in medium containing a physiological ⳑ-cystine concentration of 83 µM than in commercial medium with a concentration of 200 µM ⳑ-cystine. However, RSL3, a glutathione peroxidase 4 inhibitor, decreased cell viability to a similar extent in media containing both ⳑ-cystine concentrations. Sulfasalazine and erastin significantly increased the percentages of propidium iodide-positive cells in media with 83 µM ⳑ-cystine, but not in media with 200 µM ⳑ-cystine. Sulfasalazine- or erastin-induced accumulation of lipid peroxidation as monitored by C11-BODIPY probe was higher in media with 83 µM ⳑ-cystine than in media with 200 µM ⳑ-cystine. In contrast, the changes in the percentages of propidium iodide-positive cells and lipid peroxidation by RSL3 were similar in both media. These results showed that sulfasalazine and erastin, but not RSL3, were efficacious under conditions of physiological ⳑ-cystine concentration, suggesting that medium conditions would be crucial for the design of a bioassay for system x_c^- inhibitors.

Oxidation of phenol in aqueous media by electro-Fenton process using Ru-Sn-Sb/graphite electrode has been studied. Hydrogen peroxide was electrically generated by reaction of dissolved oxygen in acidic solutions containing supporting electrolyte and $Fe^{2+}$ was added in aqueous media. Phenol degradation experiments were performed in the presence of electrolyte media at pH 3. Effect of operating parameters such as current, electrolyte type (NaCl, KCl and $Na_2SO_4$) and concentration, $Fe^{2+}$ concentration, air flow rate and phenol concentration were investigated to find the best experimental conditions for achieving overall phenol removal. Results showed that current of 2 A, NaCl electrolyte concentration of 2g/l, 0.5M concentration of $Fe^{2+}$, air flow rate of 1l/min were the best conditions for mineralization of the phenol by electro-Fenton.

Soluble manganese removal was analyzed as a function of filter media, filter depth, presence or absence of chlorination, and surface manganese oxide concentration in water treatment processes. Sand, manganese oxide coated sand (MOCS), sand+MOCS, and granular activated carbon(GAC) were used as filter media. Manganese removal, surface manganese oxide concentration, turbidity removal, and regeneration of MOCS in various filter media were investigated. Results indicated that soluble manganese removal in MOCS was rapid and efficient, and most of the removal happened at the top of the filter. When filter influent (residual chlorine 1.0mg/L) with an average manganese concentration of 0.204mg/L was fed through a filter column, the sand+MOCS and MOCS columns can remove 98.9% and 99.2% of manganese respectively on an annual basis. On the other hand, manganese removal in sand and the GAC column was minimal during the initial stage of filtration, but after 8 months of filter run they removed 99% and 35% of manganese, respectively. Sand turned into MOCS after a certain period of filtration, while GAC did not. In MOCS, the manganese adsorption rate on the filter media was inversely proportional to the filter depth, while the density of media was proportional to the filter depth.

이 글에서는 미디어 교차소유의 역설을 말하고자 한다. 신문과 방송의 교차소유를 한국사회에서 도입하기에는 많은 문제가 있고, 교차소유론도 논리적인 결함이 많은 모순 덩어리이기 때문이다. 교차소유 찬성론자들은 많지만, 아직도 ‘왜 교차소유를 해야 하는지’ 제대로 설명하지 못하고 있다. 거대 미디어기업에게 교차소유는 효율성과 시장 지배, 언론권력의 확대라는 차원에서 큰 이득이자 특혜일지 몰라도 다른 미디어, 수용자, 광고주에게는 득보다 실이 훨씬 많을 수 있어 정당성을 따져볼 때 문제다.
