Toluene, n-hexane, and methyl ethyl ketone(MEK) were exposed to the activated carbon fiber(ACF) and 3M(Model 3500) diffusive samplers under low and high humidity levels. In order to evaluate these two samplers, the sampling capacity, sampling rate, reverse diffusion, and storage stability were obtained. At low humidity level($8{\pm}3%RH$), the adsorption amount of all three organic vapors to the ACF diffusive sampler showed a positive linear relationship up to 8 hours. However, at high humidity level($90{\pm}5%RH$), n-hexane and MEK maintained a positive linear relationship up to 1.5 hrs, but decreased in their adsorption amounts afterwards. On the other hand, the adsorption amount of n-hexane, MEK, and toluene to 3M diffusive sampler showed almost a positive linear relationship up to 8 hours at both humidity levels. At low humidity level, there was almost no reverse diffusion for both 3M and ACF diffusive samplers. However, when the ACF diffusive sampler was used at high humidity level, there was about 52.63% of MEK sample loss and about 92.59% of n-hexane sample loss. The storage stabilities of the ACF and 3M diffusive samplers were both relative stable except for MEK. In the case of MEK, the difference between the analysis of the organic vapor right after the sampling and that of 3 weeks later at room temperature was 45% for the ACF diffusive sampler and 18% for the 3M diffusive sampler. Since the storage stability of the samples stored in a refrigerator was relatively stable, they need to be refrigerated until the analysis is done.

본 연구는 알칼리·초음파 전처리를 통한 하수슬러지의 가용화 정도를 확인하기 위해 슬러지 가용화율과 VSS 감량화율을 측정하였다. 또한 슬러지 가용화와 EPS간의 관계를 확인하기 위해 LB-EPS(Loosely-Bound EPS), TB-EPS(Tightly-Bound EPS)를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, TS 1.0%, pH 12 조건에서 슬러지 가용화율은 27.7% 증가하였고, LB-EPS as Carbohydrate와 Protein은 각각 14.6, 13.3 mg/L/g TS가 증가하여 가용화에 따른 유기물의 변화와 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 VSS는 26.7% 감량되었고, TB-EPS as Carbohydrate와 Protein은 각각 15.7, 21.9 mg/L/g TS 용출되어 가용화에 따른 고형물의 변화 역시 유사한 경향을 나타내었다.

Organic cation transporters (OCTs) are important for absorption, elimination of many endogenous small organic cations as well as a wide array of drugs and environmental toxins. This gene is located in a cluster on chromosome 6 and OCTs are in major organs such as intestine, liver, kidney, brain and placenta. Therefore, expression levels and function of OCTs directly affect plasma levels and intracellular concentrations of drugs and thereby determine therapeutic response. The aim of this study was to investigate the frequency of the SNPs on OCT1 (C181T and C1022T) and OCT2 (G808T) to analyze haplotype frequency in healthy Korean population. Human subjects have been genotyped for OCT1 (C181T for 195 subjects and C1022T for 825 subjects), using polymerase chain reaction-based diagnostic tests (RFLP). And for OCT2 (G808T), a total of 861 subjects have been genotyped, using pyrosequencing method. Haplotype was statistically inferred using an algorithm based on the expectation-maximization (EM). OCT1 C181T genotyping showed 100% homozygous wild-type (C/C). OCT1 C1022T genotyping showed wild-type (C/C), heterozygous (C/T) and homozygous mutant-type (T/T) and each accounted for 72.1, 24.5 and 3.4%, respectively. OCT2 G808T genotyping results also showed homozygous wild-type (G/G), heterozygous (G/T) and homozygous mutant-type (T/T) and each took 81.8, 17.9 and 0.3%, respectively. Based on these genotype data, haplotype analysis between OCT1 C181T and OCT1 C1022T has proceeded. The result has revealed that linkage disequilibrium between alleles is not obvious (P=0.0122).

본 연구는 혐기성 수소 발효 반응조의 유출수를 기질로 이용하여 anaerobic baffled reactor (ABR) 및 anaerobic sequencing batch reactor (ASBR) 형태에 따른 혐기성 메탄 발효 성능을 평가하였다. 두 개의 반응조는 유기물 부하율 $1.0kg\;COD/m^3{\cdot}d$와 수리학적 체류시간 20일에서 운전을 수행하였다. ABR과 ASBR의 초기 운전 기간에서 메탄 발생량은 각각 0.04 L/L/d와 0.19 L/L/d로 나타났으며, ABR과 ASBR의 최대 메탄 발생량은 각각 0.25 L/L/d와 0.31 L/L/d로 나타났다. ABR과 ASBR의 초기 운전 기간에서 COD 제거율은 각각 89%와 92%로 나타났다. 정상 상태에 도달한 후에는 ABR과 ASBR의 COD 및 VS의 제거율은 각각 90% 이상 유지되었다. 비메탄 활성도는 미생물이 기질에 적응함에 따라 반응조에 상관없이 증가하였다.

실록산은 유기규소화합물로서 혐기성소화조에서 생산되는 바이오가스로 휘발되며, 이러한 실록산은 바이오가스로 이용되는 가스 연소 엔진 고장의 원인이 된다. 따라서, 바이오가스 내의 실록산을 저감시킬 수 있는 방안이 필요하며 우선적으로 실록산의 발생특성에 대한 조사가 필요하다. 이에 본 연구는 음식물류폐기물폐수의 혐기성소화조에서 발생되는 바이오가스에 함유되어 있는 실록산의 농도 특성을 조사하였다. 총 실록산의 농도는 평균적으로 $9.5mg\;siloxane/m^3$로 나타났으며, 고리 구조 D4의 실록산 농도는 $4.0mg\;siloxane/m^3$로 가장 높게 나타났다. 고리구조 및 선형구조 실록산의 농도는 각각 D4>D5>D6 및 L4>L3>L5>L2의 순서로 나타났다. 1월 2월 및 3월의 실록산 농도 측정 결과에서 1월의 총 실록산 농도가 가장 낮게 나타났으며, 3월의 총 실록산 농도가 가장 높게 나타났다.

BACKGROUND: Metal contamination of farmlands nearby abandoned mines is a serious environmental problem. This study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of stabilizers on different type of the soils contaminated with metals. METHODS AND RESULTS: The texture of silt loam soil initially contaminated with heavy metal was artificially adjusted to loam and sandy loam by adding sand, and the soil organic matter content (1.5%) was also altered by adding peat to the soils at 3.5 and 8.0%. The soils were mixed with 3% (w/w) of each limestone, dolomite, and steel slag. For the soils with different textures, the bioavailability of As was found to be the lowest in sandy loam compared to others metals such as Cu, Pb, and Zn. The efficacy of limestone and dolomite was not significantly different compared to the soils having different organic matter contents, but the stabilization efficiency of steel slag increased as the soil organic matter content increased. Moreover, stabilizers showed inhibition effect on the uptake of metals to plant. CONCLUSION: The stabilizers were found as effective materials to immobilize metals in soil and to decrease plant uptake of metals. Studies are needed to deeply elucidate the interaction between influencing factors and various stabilizers.

본 논문에서는 국내 산림 지역의 토양에서 서식하는 곤충병원성 진균을 insect-baiting 방법을 이용하여 분리하고자 하였으며, 곤충병원성 진균과 토양의 물리적, 화학적 특성과의 관계를 분석하고자 하였다. 국내 산림 지역 5곳을 선정하여 토양을 채집하였으며, 채집된 토양에서 총 42 분리주를 분리하였다. 그 중 Beauveria bassiana (42.9%)와 Metarhizium anisopliae (45.2%)가 주로 분리되었으며, 특히 M. anisopliae의 분포는 토양의 총 질소량(g/kg)과 유기물 함량(%)에 따라 달라지는 것이 확인되었다. 국내 산림 지역의 토양은 낮은 pH를 보였으며(pH 4-5), 전체 분리주 중에서 미사질 양토(silt loam)에서 50% 이상이 분리되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 통하여 토양의 물리적, 화학적 특성과 곤충병원성 진균의 분포 및 다양성과의 관계를 이해하는데 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

We have fabricated semiconductor nanocrystals using phase separation on flexible substrates for future application in QD-LEDs. The phase separation between the CdSe semiconductor nanocrystals and TPD organic underlayer can occur during the solvent drying, and the CdSe may rise towards the surface of the coated films, which is arranged into close packed array called self-assembly process. In this work, the polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) films of $200{\mu}m$ thickness was used as a flexible substrate, which was coated with indium tin oxide(ITO) as a transparent electrode of <$15{\Omega}/cm^2$. A number of solvents such as chloroform, toluene, and hexane was used and their coating properties were investigated using the spin coating process. The dispersion of both QD and TPD was rather poor in toluene and hexane and resulted in rougher surface and some aggregates. Meanwhile, the surface roughness of templates can be a very critical issue in the fabrication of QD-LED devices. Some experiments was performed to reduce the ~4nm surface roughness of the PEN films and It can be decreased to the minimum of ~0.7nm. Also discussed are the optical properties of semiconductor nanocrystals used in this phase separation and possible large area and continuous coating process for future application.

For 63 soil series distributed in Jeju Island, natural uncultivated soils in each soil series were collected, and their physicochemical properties and their concentrations of 19 heavy metals including 8 heavy metals which are regulated by Korean Soil Environment Conservation Law, were analyzed. Moreover, the correlations between physicochemical properties and heavy metal concentrations, and between heavy metal concentrations were analyzed. The heavy metals distributed in the higher concentrations and the lower concentrations with arithmetric mean value, were Mn(730 mg/kg) and Ba(493 mg/kg), and Hg(0.146 mg/kg) and Tl(0.096 mg/kg), respectively. The correlations between pH($H_2O$) and heavy metals(Hg, Ni, Co, Se), between pH(NaF) and heavy metals(Hg, Ba, Se, Tl), and between organic matter content and heavy metals(Hg, Tl) were significant at the 0.01 level. From the correlations between heavy metal concentrations, there were 22 where there were significant at the 0.01 level and they showed positive correlation. Among those, the heavy metals showing the correlation higher than r=0.5, were Sb-V(0.878), Mo-Sn(0.867), Co-V(0.654), Co-Sb(0.648), Be-Sn(0.546), and Sn-Tl(0.528).
