  • The existing flooding Probabilistic Safety Analysis(PSA) was updated to reflect the Korean plant specific operating experience data into the flooding frequency to improve the PSA quality. Both the Nuclear Power Experience(NPE) database and the Korea Nuclear Pipe Failure Database(NuPIPE) databases were used in this study, and from these databases, only the Pressurized Water Reactor(PWR) data were used for the flooding frequencies of the flooding areas in the primary auxiliary building. With these databases and a Bayesian method, the flooding frequencies for the flooding areas were estimated. Subsequently, the Core Damage Frequency(CDF) for the flooding PSA of the Ulchin(UCN) unit 3 and 4 plants based on the Korean Standard Nuclear Power Plant(KSNP) internal full-power PSA model was recalculated. The evaluation results showed that sixteen flooding events are potentially significant according to the screening criterion, while there were two flooding events exceeding the screening criterion of the existing UCN 3 and 4 flooding PSA. The result was compared with two kinds of cases: (1) the flooding frequency and CDF from the method of the existing flooding PSA with the PWR and Boiled Water Reactor(BWR) data of the NPE database and the Maximum Likelihood Estimate(MLE) method and (2) the flooding frequency and CDF with the NPE database(PWR and BWR data), NuPIPE database, and a Bayesian method. From the comparison, a difference in CDF results was revealed more clearly between the CDF from this study and case (2) than between case (1) and case (2). That is, the number of flooding events exceeding the screen criterion further increased when only the PWR data were used for the primary auxiliary building than when the Korean specific data were used.

  • This experiment was conducted to elucidate the effects of mulching materials and removing time of the transparent polyethylene (PE) film on the growth of garlic at Uiseong experimental field, Korea. The experimental mulching materials comprised of transparent polyethylene film (0.025 mm) and net polyethylene (NPE). Plant height and leaf number of garlic were highest at PE treatment when the PE removing date was March 18 and this treatment also promoted the no. of cloves. Length of leaf sheath and bolting rate were highest and bulb weight loss rate was lowest at PE + NPE treatment when the PE removing date was March 18. But clove number was the lowest in this treatment compared to conventional PE film treatment. Conventional mulching method accelerated secondary growth rate but bulb weight loss was vice versa. There were statistically no differences in bulb diameter among treatments but conventional treatment positively focused on bulb diameter. Whenever PE film remove can suppress weeds compared to no mulching treatment but the dry weight of weeds were increasing trends as the removal dates of PE film were delayed. Transparent PE or PE + NPE treatments can be recommended to grow best quality garlic when PE film removing date is March 18.

  • Formaldehyde (FA) is an important industrial chemical, but it can cause allergic reactions, sick building syndrome and so on. It has also been observed to cause cancer in scientific studies using laboratory animals, and it even causes cancer in humans. Natural products such as ginseng and pine needle containing complicated mixtures of organic chemicals are widely used in the world, because their effective components are responsible for some pharmacological activities including antioxidative effect, anticancer effect. We investigate the effect of Korean ginseng (GE), pine needle extract (PE) and combined GE and PE (cNPE) on mouse lung injury by FA exposure. GE, PE and cNPE was directly transported to pulmonary cells through respiratory organ by nebulizer inhalation. In the case of FA exposure, the pulmonary structure was damaged and its function became abnormal. However, cNPE-FA, GE-FA, and PE-FA treated groups showed similar with the control group compared with FA group. Among them, GE was proved to be more effective than any other extracts. These results demonstrate that natural product extracts could protect pulmonary structure and function against FA exposure.

  • This study investigated the correlation between parents' nutrition quotient (NQ) and the nutrition quotient of Korean preschoolers (NQ-P) of picky eaters (PE) aged five years living in Dobong-gu, Seoul. The questionnaire was conducted online by parents of 187 preschoolers between May 25 and June 5, 2020. PE was defined as an average score of 3 or more on the picky eating questionnaires; non-picky eaters (NPE, n=120) and PE (n=67). The correlation between preschoolers and their parents was assessed using the NQ-P and NQ, respectively. Compared to the NPE, picky eating (p<0.001) was significantly higher, and vegetable preference (p<0.001), NQ-P (p<0.05), moderation dimension (p<0.05), frequency of vegetable intake (p<0.05) of balance dimension, and processed beverages (p<0.01) of moderation dimension were significantly lower in the PE. The correlation between the NQ and NQ-P was related to the diversity (p<0.05), moderation (p<0.05), and environment (p<0.01) of NQ in the NPE and not related to the PE. PEs should increase their frequency of vegetable intake and reduce their intake of processed beverages. To increase the NQ-P of PE, parents should eat a balanced diet. Future studies on the NQ-P of preschoolers aged 3 to 5 are needed.

  • We characterized the n-type organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) with non-conjugated polyelectrolytes (NPEs) interlayers as the electron injection layer. Novel NPEs with various ions (Cl-, Br-, I-) improved the electron mobility from $5.06{\times}10^{-3}$ to $2.10{\times}10^{-2}cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ in OFETs based [6,6]-Phenyl-$C_{61}$-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) when $PEIEH^+I^-$ spin-cast from 0.6% solution was deposited onto the PCBM layer. Reduced electron injection barrier (${\phi}_e$) at NPE/metal electrode interface was induced by dipole formation and led to increase the electron injection and transport. These findings are important for understanding how NPEs function in devices, the improvement of device performance, and the design of new materials for use in optoelectronic devices.

  • 목 적 : 초기만성신부전증에서 저단백식이의 투여가 만성신부전의 진행속도 및 혈압조절에 어떠한 영향을 미치는 지를 알기 위함이다. 방 법 : 5/6 신절제술로 만성 신부전을 유발시킨 백서를 수술 제 7일부터 무작위로 enalapril을 투여하지 않은 군과 enalapril 투여군 (식수 1L 당 50 mg)으로 나누고 각군을 정상단백식이군 ($18.5\%$ 단백식이), 저단백식이군($6\%$단백식이)으로 나누어 비교하여 보았다. 신절제술후 4주, 12주, 16주에 단백뇨의 변화, 잔여 신장무게, 신 조직의 mesangial matrix expansion score 및 morphometric analysis로 분석한 사구체용적의 변화를 비교 분석하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 결 과 : 1) 정상단백식이군 및 저단백식이군은 신절제술후 혈압이 올라가기 시작하여 지속적인 고혈압소견을 보였다 (정상단백식이군; 4주 $147{\pm}6$mmHg, 8주 $175{\pm}11$mmHg, 12주 $180{\pm}6$mmHg, 16주 $200{\pm}6$ mmHg: 저단백식이군; 4주 $140{\pm}8$mmHg, 8주 $162{\pm}5$mmHg, 12주 $171{\pm}6$mmHg, 16주 $184{\pm}11$mmHg). Enalapril 투여군은 식이의 단백량과 관계없이 신절제술후 8주부터 혈압이 조절되기 시작하였다. 2) 16주째 저단백식이군의 24시간 뇨단백은 $74{\pm}15$mg으로 정상단백식이군 ($101{\pm}15$mg)보다 의의있게 적었다. (P<0.05). Enalapril 투여군도 저단백식이의 경우 $42{\pm}12$mg 으로. 정상단백식이($67{\pm}15$mg) 보다 의의있게 적었다. (P<0.05). 3) 신절제술후 16주째 크레아티닌 청소율은 정상단백식이군 $1.40{\pm}0.13$ ml/min, 저단백식이군은 $1.57{\pm}0.11$ml/min, enalapril 정상단백식이군은 $1.10{\pm}0.17$ml/min, enalapril 저단백식이군은 $1.37{\pm}0.14$ml/min 이었다. (P=NS). 4) 저단백식이군의 잔여 신장무게의 증가는 정상단백시이군의 신장 무게의 증가에 비해 의의있게 낮았다. (저단백식이군; 4주 $1.33{\pm}0.04g$, 12주 $1.45{\pm}0.05g$, 16주 $1.44{\pm}0.16g$: 정상단백이군; 4주 $1.58{\pm}0.19g$, 12 주$1.79{\pm}0.15g$, 16주 $1.99{\pm}0.12g$, P<0.05). 16주에 관찰한 enalapril 투여군의 신장무게를 보면 저단백식이, 정상단백식이에 따른 차이는 없었다. 5) 12주, 16주째 저단백식이군의 mesangial matrix expansion score은 정상단백식이군보다 의의있게 감소되었다. (저단백식이군; 12주 $1.91{\pm}0.02$, 16주 $1.90{\pm}0.02$; 정상단백식이군 ; 12주 $2.29{\pm}0.09$, 16주 $2.55{\pm}0.16$, P<0.05). Enalapril 투여군의 mesangial matrix expansion score는 식이의 단백량에 따른 차이는 없었다. 6) 16주째 저단백식이군의 사구체용적은 정상단백식이군보다 의의있게 감소되었다 (16주, 저단백식이군; $1.17{\pm}0.19{\times}10^6{\mu}m^3$ ; 정상단백식이군; $1.98{\pm}0.16{\times}10^6{\mu}m^3$, P<0.05). Enalapril 투여군의 사구체용적은 저단백식이의 경우 정상식이 때 보다 의의있는 감소를 보였다 (16주, 저단백식이군; $1.19{\pm}0.17{\times}10^6{\mu}m^3$: 정상단백식이군; $1.81{\pm}0.22{\times}10^6{\mi}m^3$, P<0.05). 결 론 : 항고현압제를 쓰지 않은 군에서의 저단백식이의 효과는 매우 현저하였고 항고혈압제를 쓴 군에서는 저단백식이와 정상단백식이의 차이가 없었다. 따라서 저단백식이와 항고혈압제는 각각 신조직 손상의 진행을 확실히 지연시키나 두가지를 같이 병용하면 각각 지연시키는 것에 비하여는 additional effect가 미미하였다. 그러나 혈압 조절은 저단백식이로는 만족할만하지 못하고 항고혈압제에 의한 혈압조절이 도움이 되므로_ 만성신부전 환자에서 저단백식이와 항고혈압제의 병용요법이 필요한 것으로 사료된다.

  • This Study has treated the effects of fiber, surfactants, temperature, surfactant concentration, pH, electrolyte, fatty acid contents and mechanical force on the removal of particulate soil from fabric, vacuum cleaner dirt was used as model particulate soil. The fabrics were soiled with mixture of vacuum cleaner dirt and fatty soil, and washed in Terg-O-tometer. The detergency was evaluated by measuring reflectance of a fabric before and after washing. The results were as follows. 1. The fiber type showed a different pattern of soil removal with surfactants. In general, particulate soil removal increased in the following order Acetate>PET. Nylon>Cotton. Particulate soil removal, which is affected by the surfactant type, increased in the following order NPE $(EO)_{10}\leqq$Soap>SLS>DBS>Tween 80. 2. The influence of temperature on the particulate soil removal was very complex because efficiency of removal was varied with surfactant and fiber types. The washing efficiency of NPE $(EO)_{10}$ was highest at around $40^{\circ}C\;and\;60^{\circ}C$ with cotton and PET but the washing efficiency of DBS was the highest at $60^{\circ}C$ with cotton, decreased monotonously with increasing temperature with PET 3. The detergency of particulate soil increased with increasing surfactant concentration at relatively low concentration and then levelled off above some optimum concentration. 4. The removal of particulate soil increased with increasing pH and mechanical force. 5. Effect of electrolyte on the particulate soil removal was depended on the concentration of the surfactant. At low concentration of surfactant, addition of electrolytes improved soil removal but above the some concentration no effect was observed. At high concentration of surfactant, Vie., $0.6\%$ , the maximum washing effect is reached without added electrolyte. These result indicate that added electrolyte only influence the adsorption of surfactant on the soil and fiber 6. Fatty acid content in the soil did not influence on particulate soil removal without regard to surfactants.
