The effects of accelerated Ultraviolet (UV) radiation on High temperature vulcanized (HTV), Room temperature vulcanized (RTV) silicone rubber and two types of ethylene propylene diene terpolymer (EPDM) used for composite insulator were inverstigated by hydrophobicity class (HC), surface voltage decay after corona charging, SEM-EDS, FTIR and XPS. The contact angle in two kinds of silicone rubber was scarcely change, but EPDM occurred to the loss of hydrophobicity followed by surface cracking and chalking. The surface voltage decay on UV-treated silicone rubber and EPDM showed a different decay trend with UV treatment. EDS and XPS analysis indicated that the oxygen content increased with UV treatment time in all samples. For silicone rubber, the oxidized groups of inorganic silica-like structure increased with UV treatment time. The oxidized carbon of C=0, O=C-O in EPDM increased. These oxidized surface for each material had different electrostatic characteristics, so deposited charges were expected to have different impacts on their surface hydrophobicity. The degradation mechanism based on our results was discussed.

$p^+$/n/n 메사(mesa) 구조를 갖는 6H-SiC UV 광다이오드를 제작하여 입사 파장 200~600 nm의 영역에서 광전류(photocurrent)를 측정하였다. 광다이오드의 파장의 변화에 따라 측정된 광전류는 자외선 영역에서 민감하며 260 nm 근처에서 최대값을 나타내었다. 광다이오드의 광전류 분포를 해석하기 위하여 소수 운반자의 확산모델로 양자효율을 계산하였으며, 계산된 양자효율은 측정된 광전류 분포와 상대적으로 비교되었다. 6H-SiC UV 광다이오드의 광전류 분포는 공핍층에서 광흡수가 포함된 소수운반자의 확산모델에 의하여 해석되었다.

Background: A wide range of environmental factors, such as diseases, nutritional deficiencies, ageing, hormonal imbalances, stress, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation, may affect the structure and function of the skin that covers the entire surface of the human body. In this study, we investigated roles of red ginseng oil (RGO) in enhancing skin functions, including hair growth and skin protection, using mouse models. Methods: For hair growth experiment, shaved dorsal skins of C57BL/6 mice were topically applied with vehicle, RGO, RGO's major compounds, or minoxidil for consecutive 21 days and skin tissues were examined the hair growth promoting capacity. For skin protection experiment, SKH-1 hairless mice were topically applied with vehicle or RGO twice a day for three days prior to exposure to UVC radiation at 20 kJ/cm². Skin tissues were collected to evaluate skin protective effects of RGO. Results: Topical application of RGO to C57BL/6 mice effectively promoted hair regeneration by inducing early telogen-to-anagen transition and significantly increasing the density and bulb diameter of hair follicles. Major compounds, including linoleic acids and β-sitosterol, contributed to RGO-promoted hair growth. Treatment with RGO as well as its major components upregulated expression of hair growth-related proteins. Furthermore, in SKH-1 hairless mice, RGO had a protective effect against UVC-induced skin damage by inhibiting inflammation and apoptosis, as well as inducing cytoprotective systems. Conclusion: These data suggest that RGO may be a potent agent for improving skin health and thereby preventing and/or treating hair loss and protecting skin against UV radiation.

In this study, degradation was observed by irradiating UV rays to the polymer insulators which have been widely used in outdoor electric power facilities. For an indoor accelerated UV test, 0.55 w/m2 of UV rays were applied using a xenon-arc method. A UV detection system with 65 ${\phi}mm$ in diameter, 100 mm in length and 1.0 of brightness (F/#) has been designed. Even though efflorescence on the surface of polymer insulators wasn't observed according to the accelerated UV test. UV rays were detected at around 50% and 40% of insulation breakdown in EPDM and silicone-type insulators respectively. As degradation continued because of an indoor accelerated UV test, breakdown voltage with which UV rays can be detected in an early stage decreased as well. A silicone polymer insulator would be severer than EPDM polymer insulator in terms of surface degradation because of UV strength against $V_m/V_{BD}$ was high in silicone polymer insulators. UV strength in silicone-type insulators increased at 1,000 $kJ/m^2$ because contact angle at the intial stage sharply decreased to from $113^{\circ}$ to $92.1^{\circ}$.

Star formation in galaxies predominantly takes place in giant molecular clouds (GMCs). While it is widely believed that UV radiation feedback from young massive stars can destroy natal GMCs by exciting HII regions and driving their expansion, our understanding on how this actually occurs remains incomplete. To quantitatively assess the effect of UV radiation feedback on cloud disruption, we conduct a series of theoretical studies on the dynamics of HII regions and its role in controlling the star formation efficiency (SFE) and lifetime of GMCs in a wide range of star-forming environments. We first develop a semi-analytic model for the expansion of spherical dusty HII regions driven by the combination of gas and radiation pressures, finding that GMCs in normal disk galaxies are destroyed by gas-pressure driven expansion with SFE < 10%, while more dense and massive clouds with higher SFE are disrupted primarily by radiation pressure. Next, we turn to radiation hydrodynamic simulations of GMC dispersal to allow for self-consistent star formation as well as inhomogeneous density and velocity structures arising from supersonic turbulence. For this, we develop an efficient parallel algorithm for ray tracing method, which enables us to probe a range of cloud masses and sizes. Our parameter study shows that the net SFE, lifetime (measured in units of free-fall time), and the importance of radiation pressure (relative to photoionization) increase primarily with the initial surface density of the cloud. Unlike in the idealized spherical model, we find that the dominant mass loss mechanism is photoevaporation rather than dynamical ejection and that a significant fraction of radiation escapes through low optical-depth channels. We will discuss the astronomical.

오존층의 파괴와 증가하는 야외활동으로 인한 자외선의 노출을 최소화 하기위해 자외선 차단제는 필수적인 것이 되고 있다. 기존에 사용되는 자외선 차단제의 기능을 향상시키며 부작용을 줄이기 위해 천연식물과 같은 친환경적인 소재의 개발이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구는 천연물을 활용한 자외선차단제 및 기능성 화장품 소재 개발을 위해 미세조류(Chlamydomonas hedleyi.)로부터 Mycosporine-like amino acid (MAA)를 분리 정제하고 그 효능을 평가하고자 하였다. 미세조류에서 분리 정제한 MAAs 중 shinorine을 분리하여 UV에 의한 피부세포의 손상을 막고, 염증과 관련 있는 단백질의 발현을 저해하는지를 평가하였다. 그 결과 shinorine이 피부세포가 UV에 의해 손상되는 것을 보호하여 cell viability가 10% 증가하였고, 염증관련 단백질인 COX2이 발현이 41%정도 감소하는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 콜라겐의 합성을 증가시켜 주름개선 효능을 확인하였다. 이에 shinorine은 자외선 차단용 소재뿐 아니라 항노화 관련 제품의 소재로 가능성을 확인하였다.

DNA damage by physical insult including UV and g-radiation might provoke genetic alterations in cells, which is followed by either acute cell death or tumorigenesis. The responsiveness to g-radiation depends on cellular context of target cells. To understand the mechanisms of checkpoint control, repair and cell death following genotoxic stimu]i, cDNA microarray can provide the gene expression profile. To make a profile of gene expression in irradiated Jurkat T cells, we hybridized the cDNA microarray using cDNA from g-irradiated Jurkat T cells. Jurkat T cells were exposed to 4Gy to 16Gy, and total RNA were extracted at 4 to 24 hrs after irradiation. The hybridization of the microarray to fluorescence-labeled cDNA from treated and untreated cells was analyzed by bioinformatic analysis to address relative changes in expression levels of the genes present in the array. Responses varied widely in different time points, suggesting acute stress response and chronic restoration or cell death. From these results we could select 384 genes related to radiation response in Tcells, and radiation response might be different in various types of cells. Using Radchip, we could separate "the exposed" from control PBMCs. We propose that Radchip might be useful to check the radiation research as well as radiation carcinogenesis.

UV-C 조사가 국내에 유통되고 있는 수입 건어포류의 저장 중 미생물학적 변화와 품질에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. UV-C 조사량은 5, 10, $20\;kJ/m^2$으로 처리하여 대조구와 비교하였다. 조사시간은 5분 33초, 11분 6초, 22분 12초를 사용하였다. UV-C 조사에 의한 건어포류에 존재하는 오염된 미생물의 감소는 $20\;kJ/m^2$ 처리에서, 쥐포는 호기성 세균과 효모 및 곰팡이에서 각각 0.82, 1.23 log CFU/g, 문어포는 각각 1.20, 1.01 log CFU/g이었다. 또한 저장 중 대조구 대비 초기 감균 효과를 유지하였고, 조사선량이 증가함에 따라 미생물이 더 감소하였다. UV-C 조사된 시료에 대한 Hunter L, a, b 값을 측정한 결과 저장 중 시료의 색도에 있어서 조사선량에 따른 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 따라서 본 연구결과, UV-C 조사 처리가 수입 건어포류의 미생물 생육 억제 및 품질 유지의 가능성을 확인하였다.
