This study was for comparisons of transitional element concentrations from the two different soil, serpentinite(SP) and granite area(GR), Kwangcheon and Hongseong area. Soils were collected by soil depths (10, 20 and 30cm) from the sites selected In the plant species(coniferous and deciduous species). In the soils, the SP was high in the Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni and Zn concentrations, while the GR was high in the Cu, As, Sc and V. With the soil depths, the elements had high solubility, such as Cr, Co and Ni concentrations, were high in the SP, while the other elements were not clear. For the both species, the SP was high in the root and bolebark, while in the GR, not clear. Coniferous species in the same soil types, was higher than the deciduous In most elements. The more with increasing ages, the more with element accumulation in most plant parts except leaves. Comparisons between the soils and plant species, in the case of the element contents within the soils, the plant species in the same sites was similar trend. especially, clear in the SP

In this study, the fatigue test at room temperature and residual resistivity measurement test at 12K were carried out, respectively, using a 0 strand Cu-Ni/NbTi/Cu composite cable, in order to investigate how the annealing treatment effects on critical properties due to fatigue damage. Through a fatigue test of a 0 strand Cu-Ni/NbTi/Cu composite cables, a conventional S-N curve was obtained even though there existed a possibility of fretting among strands. From the resistivity measurement of a NbTi strand after fatigue tests, it was found that the RRR for annealed cables was 3 times more than that for as-received one, but with increase of the repeated number the RRR decreased which was resulted from the accumulation of damage such as lattice defects dislocation within the Cu stabilizer.

The reliability of multilayer ceramic capacitor with active thin dielectric layer was investigated by highly accelerated life test at various stress condition. The distribution of multilayer ceramic capacitor failure times is plotted as a function of time from Weibull distribution function. According to the test result, voltage acceleration factor is obtained from 2.24 to 2.96. The acceleration by temperature is much higher than other values of active thick dielectric layer. It is clear that median time to failure is affected by the stress voltage for high volumetric efficiency ceramic capacitors with active thin dielectric layer. The degradation under stress of voltage involves electromigration and accumulation of oxygen vacancy at Ni electrode interface of cathode.

Evidences from various countries suggest that toxic heavy metals in herbal medicine may constitute a serious health problem. In order to evaluate whether the toxic heavy metals caused by herbal medicine intake, blood samples collected from 222 patients taking herbal medicine were analyzed. In average levels of analyzed metals, $0.4{\sim}33.9%$ of total samples for 8 metals such as Cd, Co, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Zn except Cr and Fe exceeded the upper limit for WHO reference value. In analysis of regression coefficients indicating the levels of metals increased or decreased after taking herbal medicine for one month, however, there were different aspects by intake types for herbal medicine. For example, the metals increased by taking decoction in blood samples were as follows; Cd and Pb whether Mn, Ni and Pb as increased metals were identified in the group taking pill and decoction(combined intake group). The odds ratio showing values higher than 1 indicating that people who take herbal medicine would have possibility higher for metal accumulation in blood than that from people who do not take herbal medicine. The metals showing the odds ratio higher than 1 were Hg and Ni in decoction group, and Cd and Hg in combined intake group. However, eight of the total, 10 metals showed the odds ratios lower than 1 by taking herbal medicine. Thus, this may explain the possible role of herbal medicine as a chelator for heavy metals in body.

Concentrations of Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Ni and Cr have been estimated in sediments of the Shitalakhya River at Polash-Ghorashal area, Narsingdi, Bangladesh. 36 samples of sediments from nine sampling point at different locations of Shitalakhya River were collected to determine the concentration of Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Ni, Cr and the samples were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS). The obtained results were compared with national and international guidelines. The levels of heavy metal concentrations in sediments were found to decrease in the order of Fe > Mn > Zn > Ni > Cu > Cr, respectively. The heavy metal concentration in sediment of Shitalakhya was below the recommended safe limits of heavy metals by WHO, FAO and other international standards. Contamination factor (CF) of Zn and Cu at sampling point Fsd2 show higher (> 1) values due to the influence of external discrete sources like wastage catalysts of ZnO and CuO. Geo-accumulation index values of the study indicate as non-contaminated to moderately contaminate.

본 연구는 토양에 오염된 중금속을 제거하기 위한 식물정화공정에 사용할 식물체를 개발하기 위해 $TgMTP_1$ 유전자를 CaMV35S 상시 발현 할 수 있도록 Ti-plasmid 벡터를 구축하여 형질전환식물을 육성하였다. 유전자가 도입된 형질전환 애기장대에서 TgMTP유전자를 과발현하는 호모 TG-116 (T3 generation) 계통을 육성하여 그 특성을 조사하였다. 호모계통으로 육성한 TG-116 계통은 callus 및 식물체에서 중금속에 대한 저항성을 보였다. 특히 RT-PCR 및 Western 분석에서 유전자의 발현은 잎에서 높게 나타났으며, Ni 흡수 및 축적이 많이 일어났다. 따라서 MTP1 유전자가 발현되어 액포에 중금속을 축적하는 실험결과를 활용한다면 식물정화공정에 사용할 수 있는 다양한 유전자원으로 기대할 수 있다.

$Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Fe_2O_4$thin films were prepared by using a sol-gel method. Their crystallographic, dielectric and magnetic properties were investigated as a function of Cu contents by means of an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), X-ray reflectivity, LCZ meter (NF2232), a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), and an atomic force microscope (AFM). From typical C-V measurements for $Ni_{0.65}Zn_{0.35}Fe_2O_4$ thin films on p-type silicon substrate, the surface charge density was calculated as 1.4 ${\mu}$C/$m^2$. The dielectric constant evaluated from the capacitance at the accumulation state was 28. The high $H_{c}$ and low $M_{sat}$ at x=0.0 and 0.1 were due to the growth of the ${\alpha}$-$Fe_2O_3$ phase having antiferromagnetic properties. The rapidly decreased $H_{c}$ and increased $M_{sat}$ at x=0.2 and 0.3 can be explained that the ${\alpha}$-$Fe_2O_3$ phases have completely disappeared at x=0.3 and so, non-magnetic defects are minimized. The $M_{sat}$ was slightly decreased and the $H_{c}$ was increased above at x=0.3 because the increase of grain boundary due to smaller grain size acts as defects during magnetization process.

고체 산화물 연료전지(SOFC)에서 Ni/YSZ 음극 촉매를 이용한 내부 개질 반응 시 코크 형성에 의한 촉매 비활성화 문제점을 개선하기 위해 음극에 여러가지 조촉매(Ce, Co, Cu, Cr, Mn, Pd, K, $K_2Ti_2O_5$)들을 첨가하여 그 영향을 조사하였다. $H_2O/CH_4=1.5$ 몰비, 800의 반응 조건하에서 수증기 개질 반응을 행한 결과 전이금속산화물들은 코크형성을 억제하는 효과가 없었고 메탄전환율도 오히려 감소하였다. Potassium을 담지한 Ni/YSZ의 경우는 초기에는 뚜렷한 코크형성 억제 효과가 있었으나 반응 후 42시간이 지나면 휘발에 의한 Potassium함량 감소로 급격한 촉매활성의 저하가 일어났다. 격자 구조에 Potassium이 내장된 $K_2Ti_2O_5$를 5% 혼합한 Ni/YSZ의 경우에는 장기간 운전에도 반응 활성이 줄어들지 않아서 음극 촉매의 코크 억제용 첨가제로 적용될 수 있음을 알았다. 반응시간에 따른 촉매의 비활성화는 촉매 표면에서의 graphidic carbon의 생성 때문으로 밝혀졌다.

This study aims to determine the pollution levels of nine kinds of heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, Cr, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, and Zn) in Lake Shihwa, which is susceptible to the inflow of pollutants, and the levels of heavy metal exposure in its fish and shellfish. Shihwa Lake's water quality did not exceed the short-term standard for protection of marine ecosystems, but concentrations of As, Cu, Cr, Hg, Ni, and Zn exceeded the long-term standard for protection of a marine ecosystem. In comparison to findings in prior research, performed in 2010, levels of Cr, Ni, As, and Zn are now 4.1 times lower. However, when compared to Saemangeum Lake, the environment is similar to that of Lake Shihwa, Cu, Ni, Hg, Mn, and Zn were 244.4 times higher. The levels of Pb, Cd, and Hg in fish's muscles did not exceed the average values set by the marine safety standard. However, when compared to the fish from the Korean coast, the levels of heavy metals were 9.7 times higher, on average. The levels of heavy metals in fish's livers were on average 26.8 times higher than in the muscles. In the case of shellfish, the levels of Pb, Cd, and Hg did not exceed the standard values, but in comparison to the shellfish from the south coast, the levels of heavy metals were 6.2 times higher on average. In particular, Mn (153.5 times higher) from fish and Cd (14.7 times higher) from shellfish were found in high amounts, indicating a concerning level of these specific heavy metals.
