Paraquat (N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyrrimidinium-dichlorides (PQ): MW 186.6) has been used to killing verierty of hubside plants. For this study were use Sprague-dawely rats (190$\pm$10 gm) and injection 40 mg/kg BW of paraquat (LD$_{50}$) to 24 hrs PQ and 4 days PQ group excepte normal control. For the measurement of blood calcium Ino-phosphorus and activity of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) by HITTACH 746. In serum phosphoruse of normal control were 8.0$\pm$1.2 mg/dl and 24 hrs PQ group were 8.9$\pm$1.0 mg/dl (P<0.05) and 4 days PQ group were 8.8$\pm$0.42 gmm/dl (P<0.05). In serum phosphorus were very sensitive uptaked to 10% within only 24 hours, but 4 days of PQ were similar uptake level than 24 hrs PQ. So this 8.9 mg/dl of sem phosphorus may be thought threshold level becouse does not more encrease. In blood calcium normal of rats were measured 9.51$\pm$0.3 mg/dl and 24 hrs of PQ group were 9.9$\pm$0.51 mg/dl (uptaked 4.5%, p>0.05). This uptake cannot fined meaning mathmatic statistics but 4 days PQ groups of calcium were 10.43$\pm$0.37 gm/dl (uptaked 10%, p<0.05). That 24 hrs PQ groups of caclium dose not reacted sensitive to irritated by PQ. So, when use oxidants of PQ, the blood calcium and Ino-phosphorus were linear correlated uptake that reasone thought may be move out form hardness bone tissue to in blood it does not take feeding to hunger for 4 days. In ALP normal of rats were measured 991$\pm$106 unit/L. In 24 hrs irritated PQ rats were fall down by 629$\pm$91 unit/L (P<0.001) but in 4 days of PQ rats were 792$\pm$85 unit/L (P<0.0011) that the activity of level were mild recovered activity from 629 unit (63%) to 792 unit (80%). So, that the reasone of ALP were very sensitive activity and reverse correlated to blood calcium or phosphorus irritated by PQ.

This study examined the effect of alcohol(AL) and/or paraquat(PQ) on serum TSH, thyroid hormones and enzyme activities, and the protective effect of selenium(SE) againse alcohol and/or paraquat-induced thyroid toxicity in guinea pigs. The experomental group consisted of control, 15% alcohol(AL), 4ppm sodium selentite(SE), 200ppm paraquat(PQ), AL+PQ, AL+SE, PQ+SE and AL+PQ+SE mixed in drinking water-fed guinea pigs for 4 weeks. The morphological changes of thyroid gland were studies on paraffin-embedded sections stained with H-E stain. Body weight losses, high serum concentration in TSH and cholesterol, and low values on triiodothyronine($T_3$), thyrozine($T_4$), free $T_4$ and alkaline phosophatase(ALP) were produced in the groups fed AL and/or PQ. We also noted that AL+PQ-fed group was marked increase in serum TSH. In AL or AL+PQ-fed groups when cpmpared to control group had increased the ratio of thyroid weight to body weight(ratio Twt/Bwt), whereas the ratio Twt/Bwt was decresed in SE or PQ-fed groups. However, the serum TSH, $T_3$,$T_4$ free $T_4$ and cholesterol values, and the ratio Twt/Bwt were reversed in groups given the combination of SE, compared with AL and/or Pq-fed groups, also ALP values were reversed in groups given the combination of SE, compared with AL or AL+PQ-fed groups. In microscope, morphological changes showed a remarkable between the AL or PQ-fed group and controls. In AL+PQ+SE-fed guinca pig, follicular colloid is high density in thyroid follicle and increased in connective tissue around the thyroid cells, and thyroidal epithelia were composed of cuboidal or columnar epithelium. The indicated that the morphological changes of thyroid were direct action in the thyroid cell. The results of this study confirmed that the toxic effect of AL or PQ on thyroid occur independently of changes in liver function, and that SE confers marked protection against AL or PQ-induced thyroid toxicity.

Paraquat (PQ)는 전세계적으로 사용되고 있는 제초제의 한 종류이며 독성을 가지고 있다. 가자(terminalia Chebulae)는 오래전부터 설사, 이질, 디프테리아, 기침, 천식 등의 치료제로 중국, 한국 등에서 사용되고 있는 약용식물이다. TCM이 PQ 유도독성에 미치는 영향을 실험한 결과 다음과 같은 결과들을 얻었다. 1. 신장 조직과 폐 조직에서 지질과산화물 함량을 측정해본 결과 PQ 처리군은 정상군에 비해 각각 2배, 2.5배 증가하였으나 TCM 투여군에서는 정상군에 가깝게 감소하였다. 2. 활성산소 생성계 효소에서 cytosolic enzyme system인 aldehyde oxidase, xanthine oxidase 그리고 microsomal enzyme system인 aminopyrine N-demethylase, aniline hydroxylase 활성을 측정한 결과 PQ 처리군에서 활성증가가 나타났으나 TCM 투여군에서는 효소활성이 소량 감소하였다. 3. 활성산소 해독계에 영향을 미치는 superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase를 측정 한 결과 PQ 처리군은 정상군에 비해 2배 이상의 활성 증가가 나타났고 TCM 투여군의 경우 소량 감소하는 결과가 얻어졌다. 4. 폐 조직의 G-6-phosphatase는 PQ투여군의 경우 활성 저하가 나타났으나 TCM 투여군에서는 효소 활성이 점차 증가하여 300 mg/ml에서는 정상군에 가까운 수치가 나타났다. 5. 폐 조직 중의 collagen 함량은 PQ 투여군의 경우 정상군에 비해 1.5배 증가하였고 가자 메탄올추출물 투여군의 경우 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg, 300 mg/kg의 순서로 함량이 점차 감소하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 가자 메탄올추출물은 PQ 유도독성을 신장 및 폐조직에서 효과적으로 경감시키는 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of superoxide dismutase(SOD) and catalase on the toxicity of paraquat(PQ) were studied using diethyldithiocarbamate(DDC), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole(AT) which are inhibitors of Cu, Zn-SOD and catalase in rats. Sprague Dawley rats were divide into 6 groups: control, DDC, PQ, AT, DDC+PQ, and AT+PQ group. The PQ (50 mg/kg body weight(BW); about half dose of $LD_{50}$) was administered with orally, otherwise AT(1.0g/kg BW) and DDC(1.0g/kg BW) were administered by intrperitoneal(iP) injection. The survival rate of rats in PQ+AT group was significantly decreased compared with PQ group while the difference of survival rate between DDC group and DDC+PQ group was not significant. The SOD activity after administration of DDC was decreased in liver, lung and kidney, but catalase activity was not changed. The catalase activity in liver, lung and kidney of AT treated rats was decreased, while SOD activity was not changed in this group. The effects of DDC and AT to the PQ toxicity was also observed in primary cultured rat Skin fibroblasts. The viable cells that was measured with MTT method, was decreased in AT+PQ treated group compared to PQ treated group, but the difference of cell viability between DDC treat group and DDC+PQ treated group was not observed. This result, AT potentlate PQ toxicity while DDC were not affect, suggested that the decreased catalase activity lead to elevation of hydrogen peroxide levels and PQ toxicity may be correlate with the hydrogen peroxide rather than the superoxides.

This paper presents a PQ control strategy for micro grid inverters with axial voltage regulators. The inverter works in the voltage-controlled mode and can help improve the terminal power quality. The inverter has two axial voltage regulators. The 1st regulator involves the output voltage amplitude and output impedance, while the 2nd regulator controls the output frequency. The inverter system is equivalent to a controllable voltage source with a controllable inner output impedance. The basic PQ control for micro grid inverters is easy to accomplish. The output active and reactive powers can be decoupled well by controlling the two axial voltages. The 1st axial voltage regulator controls the reactive power, while the 2nd regulator controls the active power. The paper analyses the axial voltage regulation mechanism, and evaluates the PQ decoupling effect mathematically. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is validated by simulation and experimental results.

산화질소(nitric oxide: NO) 공여체인 $100{\mu}M$ sodium nitroprusside (SNP)를 배추 잎에 전처리한 후 이어서 $2{\mu}M$ paraquat (PQ)처리 시, PQ에 의해 유도된 산화적 손상에 대한 잎의 내성이 효과적으로 증진되었다. 24 시간 광 배양기간 동안 PQ 단독 처리구 잎에서는 생체량, 엽록소 및 단백질 함량이 현저하게 감소하였으나 PQ 노출 전에 3시간 SNP 전처리로 이들 잎 손상이 의미 있게 완화되었다. 게다가 PQ 처리에 기인된 malondialdehyde (MDA)와 $H_2O_2$ 함량 증가도 SNP 전처리에 의해 유의하게 억제되었다. 잎에서 이들 PQ 독성에 대한 SNP의 방어효과와 관련하여 ascorbate-glutathione 회로 구성 효소의 활성도 변화를 조사하였다. PQ 단독 처리구에서 APX, DHAR 및 GR 효소 활성도는 배양 6시간후에 급격히 감소되어 대조구 잎과 비교 시 각각 대조구의 19%, 50%, 39% 수준의 활성도 값을 보였다. 그러나, 이들 효소 활성도 값 감소는 SNP 전처리에 의해 현저하게 억제되어 6시간 배양 후에 PQ 단독처리구 보다 각각 5배, 2배, 1.5배 높은 값을 나타내었다. 또한, 그 이후 24시간 배양 때까지 PQ 단독 처리구보다 계속 높은 활성도를 보이면서 점차로 감소하였다. 이들 결과로부터, PQ에 노출된 배추 잎에서 SNP 전처리에 의한 ascorbate-glutathione 회로의 활성화가 $H_2O_2$의 축적을 억제하며 그로인해 PQ에 의해 유도된 산화스트레스로부터 잎을 방어하는 것으로 생각되었다. 동시에 이 들 결과는 산화질소가 배추 잎에서 PQ 스트레스에 대한 항산화 방어자로서의 역할을 하는 것을 의미한다.

This paper addresses the output control of a utility-connected double-fed induction machine (DFIM) for wind power generation systems (WPGS). DFIM has a back-to-back converter to control outputs of DFIM driven by the wind turbine for WPGS. To supply commercially the power of WPGS to the grid without any problems related to power quality, the real and reactive powers (PQ) at the stator side of DFIM are strictly controlled at the required level, which in this paper is realized with the Fuzzy PI controller based on the field orientation control. For the Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) converter connected to the rotor side of DFIG to maintain the controllability of PQ at the state side of DFIM, the DC voltage of the DC link capacitor is also controlled at a certain level with the conventional Proportion-Integral (PI) controller of the real power. In addition, the power quality at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM through the back-to-back converter is maintained in a certain level with a PI controller of the reactive power. The controllers for the PQ at the stator side of DFIM, the DC link voltage of the back-to-back inverter and the reactive power at the grid connected to the rotor side of DFIM are designed and simulated in the PSIM program, of which the result verifies the performance of the proposed controllers.

This paper deals with the active and reactive power control of Grid connected system. It was shown that active power and reactive power can be dependently controlled with two individually adaptable parameters. The two parameters are power angle and voltage magnitude. Transient state will occur with active or reactive power reference value variation. This paper presents a new control strategy for active and reactive power control of less interaction and improved transient response. The paper details the control technique by the mathematical and electrical network analysis of the methodology. The performance was verified through computer simulation using MATLAB Simulink and experiment.
