The crystal structure of a benzene sorption complex of fully dehydrated Cd2+-exchanged zeolite X, Cd46Si100Al92O384·43C6H6 (a=24.880(6) Å), has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd3 at 21 ℃. The crystal was prepared by ion exchange in a flowing stream of 0.05 M aqueous Cd(NO3)2 for 3 d, followed by dehydration at 400 ℃ and 2 x 10-6 Torr for 2 d, followed by exposure to about 92 Torr of benzene vapor at 22 ℃. The structure was determined in this atmosphere and refined to the final error indices R1=0.054 and Rw=0.066 with 561 reflections for which I > 3σ(I). In this structure, Cd2+ ions are found at four crystallographic sites: eleven Cd2+ ions are at site 1, at the centers of the double six-oxygen rings; six Cd2+ ions lie at site I', in the sodalite cavity opposite to the double six-oxygen rings; and the remaining 29 Cd2+ ions are found at two nonequivalent threefold axes of unit cell, sites Ⅱ' (in the sodalite cavity ) and site Ⅱ (in the supercage) with occupancies of 2 and 27 ions, respectively. Each of these Cd2+ ions coordinates to three framework oxylkens, either at 2.173(13) or 2.224(10) Å, respectively, and extends 0.37 Å into the sodalite unit or 0.60 Å into the supercage from the plane of the three oxygens to which it is bound. The benzene molecules are found at two distinct sites within the supercages. Twenty-seven benzenes lie on threefold axes in the large cavities where they interact facially with the latter 27 site-Ⅱ Cd2+ ions (Cd2+-benzene center=2.72 Å; occupancy=27 molecules/32 sites). The remaining sixteen benzene molecules are found in 12ring planes; occupancy=16 molecules/16 sites. Each hydrogen of these sixteen benzenes is ca. 2.8/3.0 Å from three 12-ring oxygens where each is stabilized by multiple weak electrostatic and van der Waals interactions with framework oxygens.

The crystal structure of K92-X (K92Al92Si100O384), a=25.128(1) Å, dehydrated at 360 ℃ and 2X 10-6 Torr, has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques in the cubic space group Fd&bar{3} at 21(1) ℃. The structure was refined to the final error indices R1=0.044 and Rw=0.039 with 242 reflections for which I<3σ(I). In this structure, ninety-two K+ ions are located at the five different crystallographic sites. Sixteen K+ ions are located at the centers of the double six rings (site I; K(1)-O(3)=2.65(2) Å and O(3)-K(1)-O(3)=92.0(6)°). About twelve K+ ions lie at site I' in the sodalite cavity opposite double six rings (D6R's) and these K+ ions are recessed ca. 1.62 Å into the sodalite cavity from their O(3) plane (K(2)-O(3)=2.74(2) Å, O(3)-K(2)-O(3)=88.5(8)°). About thirty-two K+ ions are located at the site II in the supercage and these K+ ions are recessed ca. 1.20 Å into the supercage from their O(2) plane (K(3)-O(2)=2.64(2) Å, and O(2)-K(3)-O(2)=101(1)°). About twenty-two K+ ions lie at the site III in the supercage opposite 4-ring ladder and the remaining ten K+ ions lie at the site III' near the 4-ring ladder in the supercage (K(4)-O(4)=2.88(3) Å, O(4)-K(4)-O(4)=79.8(9)°, K(5)-O(4)=2.8(2) Å, and O(4)-K(5)-O(4)=68(5)°).

This study investigated the sensory characteristics and antioxidative activity of the reduced salt dried bulgogi bibimbap containing AF-343, a dandelion-derived compound extract. A sample with a 30% reduced salt had a sodium amount of 659.01 mg, which was significantly lower than that of the sample before the reduction (p<0.05). The textural hardness of the SW (Standard sample with the AF-343), showed the lowest value of $1.03N/cm^2$, indicating that the AF-343-containing sample could have a slightly softer texture than the non-containing sample. In the analytical sensory test, the AF-343-containing samples showed a synergistic effect on the aroma and flavor of bulgogi, with values of 5.7 and 8.4, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the non-containing sample group (4.3 and 4.4, respectively). The hardness by the sensory test was slightly hard with values of 7.2-8.1 in all samples, indicating that textural improvement was needed. In the acceptance test, all the samples scored with slightly lower values of 4-5 points, highlighting the need for future studies to improve the sensory characteristics of dried bibimbap. The flavonoid contents of AF-343-containing SW and RW sample groups were 68.21 and 64.31 mg GAE/100 g, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of the samples without AF-343 (49.06 and 44.82 mg GAE/100 g, respectively) (p<0.05). The ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities were similar to those of the flavonoid contents. As a result, in the production of AF-343-containing reduced-salt dried bulgogi bibimbap, more study on the textural improvement will be needed to achieve better palatability.

Xylella fastidiosa is xylem-limited bacterium capable of infecting a wide range of host plants, resulting in Pierce's disease in grapevine, citrus variegated chlorosis, olive quick decline syndrome, peach phony disease, plum leaf scald, alfalfa dwarf, margin necrosis and leaf scorch affecting oleander, coffee, almond, pecan, mulberry, red maple, oak, and other types of cultivated and ornamental plants and forest trees. In the European Union, X. fastidiosa is listed as a quarantine organism. Since its first outbreak in the Apulia region of southern Italy in 2013 where it caused devastating disease on Olea europaea (called olive leaf scorch and quick decline), X. fastidiosa continued to spread and successfully established in some European countries (Corsica and PACA in France, Balearic Islands, Madrid and Comunitat Valenciana in Spain, and Porto in Portugal). The most recent data for Europe indicates that X. fastidiosa is present on 174 hosts, 25 of which were newly identified in 2021 (with further five hosts discovered in other parts of the world in the same year). From the six reported subspecies of X. fastidiosa worldwide, four have been recorded in European countries (fastidiosa, multiplex, pauca, and sandyi). Currently confirmed X. fastidiosa vector species are Philaenus spumarius, Neophilaenus campestris, and Philaenus italosignus, whereby only P. spumarius (which has been identified as the key vector in Apulia, Italy) is also present in Americas. X. fastidiosa control is currently based on pathogen-free propagation plant material, eradication, territory demarcation, and vector control, as well as use of resistant plant cultivars and bactericidal treatments.

In the past, rice bakanae was considered an endemic disease that did not cause significant losses in Korea; however, the disease has recently become a serious threat due to climate change, changes in farming practices, and the emergence of fungicide-resistant strains. Since the bakanae outbreak in 2006, its incidence has gradually decreased due to the application of effective control measures such as hot water immersion methods and seed disinfectants. However, in 2013, a marked increase in bakanae incidence was observed, causing problems for rice farmers. Therefore, in this review, we present the potential risks from climate change based on an epidemiological understanding of the pathogen, host plant, and environment, which are the key elements influencing the incidence of bakanae. In addition, disease management options to reduce the disease pressure of bakanae below the economic threshold level are investigated, with a specific focus on resistant varieties, as well as chemical, biological, cultural, and physical control methods. Lastly, as more effective countermeasures to bakanae, we propose an integrated disease management option that combines different control methods, including advanced imaging technologies such as remote sensing. In this review, we revisit and examine bakanae, a traditional seed-borne fungal disease that has not gained considerable attention in the agricultural history of Korea. Based on the understanding of the present significance and anticipated risks of the disease, the findings of this study are expected to provide useful information for the establishment of an effective response strategy to bakanae in the era of climate change.

본 연구에서는 화재시나리오에 따른 터널구조물의 시공재료별 단면손실과 폭렬현상을 파악하고자 터널구조물 시공재료별로 시험체를 제작한 후 모의 화재시험을 수행하였다. 시공재료별로 화재시험을 수행한 결과, 모든 시공재료에서 RABT 화재곡선보다 RWS 화재곡선에서 단면손실이 다소 크게 발생하였다. 특히, RWS 화재곡선에서 나타나는 $1,200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온으로 인한 융해는 시공재료의 단면손실에 주요한 영향요인으로 작용하였다. 철근 보강 구조물은 무근 구조물에 비해 단면손실이 적은 것으로 나타났다. 숏크리트의 경우 화재 시나리오에 따른 단면손실의 차이가 가장 크게 발생하였다. 가열시험 도중에 가열면을 실시간 관찰한 결과, RABT에서의 재료 손상은 폭렬과 탈락에 의해 발생한 반면 RWS에서는 초기에는 RABT와 유사하나 가열개시후 약 50분 이후의 재료 손상은 폭렬과 탈락이 아닌 융해에 의한 것을 알 수 있었다.

Depression is a prevalent global problem since ages, predominately treated with SSRI. Cipralex, is an antidepressant of the SSRIs class used as a remedy for mood, depression and anxiety. Silymarin (SIL), a natural free radical scavenging, has an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. This hypothesis evaluates, for the first time, the role of cipralex on the structure of the endocrine and exocrine components of the pancreas and assess the beneficial effects of SIL on these changes. Forty-five rats were divided into control, cipralex, and cipralex plus SIL groups. During sacrifice, all rats and pancreases were weighed and the ratio of pancreatic weight (PW) to rat weight (RW) was calculated, blood samples were collected to estimate fasting glucose, insulin and amylase levels, the specimens were prepared for histological, immunohistochemical (inducible nitric oxide synthase [iNOS], tumour necrosis factor-alpha [TNF-α], caspase 3, proliferating cell nuclear antigen [PCNA], and anti-insulin antibody), and morphometrical studies. Cipralex group exhibited marked destruction of the pancreatic architecture of the exocrine and endocrine parts, with a dense collagen fiber deposition. Also, there is highly significant decrease (P<0.001) of PW/RT ratio, insulin, and amylase levels, the number and diameter of islets of Langerhans, the number of PCNA positive immunoreactive cells, and the number of insulin positive β-cells. Furthermore, a highly significant increase of glucose level, iNOS, TNF-α, and caspase-3 positive immunoreactive cells in the islets of Langerhans and acinar cells were observed. SIL improves the pancreatic histological architecture, weight loss, biochemical, and immunohistochemical analyses. Administering SIL is advantageous in managing cipralex induced pancreatic injury via its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic qualities.

This research investigated the synergic outcome of high intensity ultrasound (HIU) treatment and wet-dry combined aging (WDCA) on physiochemical characteristics and lipid oxidation during refrigerated storage to ameliorate pork meat's quality and shelf life. The CIE b^* values, cooking loss (CL %), and pH of the HIU treated samples were higher than those of the control over the aging period. They were significantly (p<0.05) modified by the aging period and ultrasound (US) treatment. However, the released water (RW %) and moisture were not significantly influenced by US treatment (p>0.05). The Warner-Bratzler shear force of HIU-treated samples was lower over control values except in 7-14 d, and it showed a significant difference between control and US treatment according to the significance of HIU (p<0.05). The thiobarbituric acid reactive substance of HIU-treated samples was significantly higher (p<0.05) than control values over the aging period. These results suggested that HIU treatment and WDCA showed a synergistic effect of maximizing the tenderness, but lipid oxidation was higher than before ultrasonic treatment. In agreement with this, the most favorable approach would involve implementing wet aging for a period of two weeks followed by dry aging for a period not exceeding one week after the application of HIU.

본 연구는 방사선 치료 영역의 선량 측정을 위하여 상용화된 열형광선량계의 가열 온도에 따른 형광 곡선의 특성을 분석하였다. 본 연구에 사용된 열형광선량계는 LiF:Mg${\cdot}$Ti, LiF:Mg${\cdot}$Cu${\cdot}$P, $CaF_2$:Dy, $CaF_2$:Mn(Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., USA)이었다. 선원과 고체 팬텀 표면(RW3 slab, IBA Dosimetry, Germany)간 거리를 100cm로 하여 기준점 깊이에서 6MV, 15MV X선과 6MeV, 12MeV 전자선을 각각 100MU 조사하였다. 방사선 조사 후 열형광 판독기(Hashaw 3500, Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., USA)를 사용하여 $50^{\circ}C$에서 $260^{\circ}C$까지 $15^{\circ}C/sec$의 가온율로 가열하여 형광 곡선을 분석하였다. 트랩 준위에 포획된 전자가 정공과 결합하면서 빛을 방출하는 형광 피크(glow peak)는 2개 또는 3개의 피크가 나타났으며 방사선 조사 후 TLD의 온도를 일정하게 증가시켰을 때 최대 형광 피크를 나타내는 형광 온도의 경우 각각의 에너지에 따라 $LiF:Mg{\cdot}Ti$ 선량계는 $185.5{\pm}1.3^{\circ}C$, $LiF:Mg{\cdot}Ti$ 선량계는 $135.0{\pm}5.1^{\circ}C$, $CaF_2$:Dy 선량계는 $144.0{\pm}1.6^{\circ}C$, $CaF_2$:Mn 선량계는 $294.3{\pm}3.8^{\circ}C$ 근처에서 최대 형광 피크를 각각 나타났다. 방사선 조사 후 포획 전자의 형광 방출 확률은 가열 온도에 의존하게 되므로 방사선 치료 영역의 선량 측정에서 방사선 조사 후 열형광선량계에 일정한 가온율을 적용함으로써 고유한 물리적 특성에 따른 측정 정확도를 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

이상적인 보강토옹벽을 구축하기 위해서는 시공중 벽체는 지반의 변형을 수용하고, 보강재의 인장력 발달을 도모하기 위해 안정성이 허용하는 한 연성이어야 하나 구축 후 공용중에는 안전성과 내구성 및 미관 등을 위해 충분한 강성을 가져야 한다. 따라서, 시공중과 구축 후 공용중 벽체의 조건이 상반되므로 국내에서 주로 시공되고 있는 현행 시공방법으로는 이 두 가지 조건을 충족시키기는 미흡한 점이 많다. 이를 충족시키기 위해서는 단계시공에 의해 일체형 강성벽체를 갖는 보강토옹벽 시스템이 필요하다. 사례 분석과 문헌조사 결과에 의하면, 단계시공에 의해 보강토옹벽을 구축하는 방법을 통해 기초지반 및 뒤채움재에서 발생하는 큰 변형을 벽체의 안정성과 관계없이 수용할 수 있고, 또한 보강토체의 변형유도로 보강재의 인장력 발달을 도모하여 보강효과의 극대화가 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 또, 일체형 강성벽체를 갖게 될 경우 주동영역에서의 구속압이 커져 국부전단파괴의 가능성이 적고, 보강재의 인발파괴의 가능성이 거의 없는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 단계시공에 의한 방법으로 일체형 강성벽체를 갖는 보강토옹벽은 보강토 이론에 충실하고, 안정성과 내구성이 탁월하므로, 향후 국내에서 철도 및 교대 분야 등에도 활용될 수 있다.
