Objectives: To study the effect of Artemisiae Capillaris Herba extracts, that have been used as oriental medicine to treat liver disease, on the perinatal and lactational n;)productive toxicity of SD rats when administered by oral lavage. Methods: Female SD rats were dosed from 6 days of gestation to 3 weeks postpartum. This was conducted in accordance with the recommendations of the KFDA Guidelines for Detection of Toxicity to Reproduction for Medicinal Products. Results: No Artemisiae Capillaris Herba extracts treatment-related changes in clinical signs, mortalities, implantation number, dead fetus number, loss rate of fetus, number of live young, survival rate of fetus, sex ratio of live young, external anomalies, pregnancy periods, viability index, lactational index, survival rate of litters at 4 days after birth or delivery index were demonstrated in any dosed levels in this study. However, the body weight and gains, food consumption and absolute organ weights of brain, adrenal glands, liver, spleen, kidney, ovaries and heart were significantly increased in 2000 or 1000mg/kg-dosing groups and the relative organ Weights of adrenal glands were significantly increased in 2,000mg/kg-dosing groups. Therefore, it was concluded that this increase was natural according to growth. Also, no changes of gross findings, clinical signs, mortalities, body weight and gains, physical development results, necropsy findings, organ weight, faculty test, open filed test and water-filled simple T-maze test, copulation, fertility, pregnancy indices, body weight and gains during gestation periods, necropsy findings, corpora lutea number, implantation number, implantation rate, dead fetus number, post-implantation loss rate, live young, post-implantation survival rate, sex ratio of live young, external anomalies and individual body weights of live young were demonstrated in any dosed levels in this study. Conclusions: It is considered that the NOAEL (No-Observed-Adverse-Effect Level) for perinatal and lactational reproductive toxicity of Artemisiae Capillaris Herba extracts was up to 2000mg/kg/day because no changes of other perinatal and lactational reproductive indices were demonstrated.

수자원의 계절적 편중이 심한 한반도에서 농업용 저수지는 이를 효과적으로 유지 및 관리하기 위한 필수적인 구조물이다. 저수지 모니터링을 위한 수단으로 광학 및 합성개구레이더(Synthetic Aperture Radar, SAR) 위성영상이 활용되고 있으나, 광학영상은 기상현상에 의한 간섭이 심하다는 한계점이 존재하며, SAR 영상은 짙은 식생에서 일어나는 다중 산란 및 노이즈에 의한 오탐지 및 미탐지가 발생하기 쉽다. 이에 본 연구에서는 광학 영상과 SAR 영상의 융합을 통해 저수지 수체 탐지 정확도를 높이고 상호보완적 작용에 대해 정량적으로 분석하고자 하였다. 경기도 이동저수지, 충청남도 천태 저수지를 대상으로, 국내 고해상도 위성인 차세대중형위성 1호, 다목적실용위성 3호 및 3A호, 그리고 유럽우주국의 Sentinel-2 영상 기반 Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI)와 SAR 탑재 위성인 Sentinel-1 단일 영상에 비지도학습 기법인 K-means 클러스터링 기법을 사용하여 수체를 탐지하고, NDWI-SAR 후방산란계수로 이루어진 2-D grid space에 동일 기법을 활용하여 정확도의 향상 정도를 파악하였다. 전반적인 정확도는 다목적실용위성이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났으며(두 저수지 모두 0.98), 이후 Sentinel-1(두 저수지 모두 0.93), Sentinel-2(이동: 0.83, 천태: 0.97), 차세대중형위성(이동: 0.69, 천태: 0.78) 순서로 감소하였다. 천태저수지에서 2-D K-means 클러스터링 기법을 적용한 결과 차세대중형위성의 수체탐지 정확도는 약 85%의 정밀도 향상과 14%의 재현율 감소와 함께 약 22% 향상되었으며(정확도 약 0.95), 다목적실용위성 및 Sentinel-2의 수체탐지 정밀도는 3-5% 향상되었고, 재현율은 4-7% 감소하였다. 추후 차세대중형위성 5호인 수자원위성 등 고해상도 SAR 위성과 이를 활용할 수 있는 고도화된 영상 융합기술, 수체 탐지 기술이 개발된다면 국내 수자원에 대한 매우 정확한 모니터링이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

수자원 관리와 수재해 피해 분석 및 예측 등을 위해 원격탐사를 활용한 수체면적을 추정하는 것은 매우 필수적이다. 위성을 활용한 수체탐지는 주로 광학 및 영상레이더(Synthetic Aperture Radar, SAR) 센서를 탑재한 대형(무게 1,000kg 이상) 위성을 중심으로 수행되어왔다. 그러나 긴 재방문주기(repeat cycle)로 인해 재난/재해 시 적시 활용이 불가능한 한계가 존재한다. 최근 초소형위성(무게 100kg 미만) 개발이 활발히 이루어짐에 따라 기존 대형위성 중심의 시간해상도 한계를 극복할 수 있는 계기가 되었다. 현재 활발히 운용중인 초소형 SAR 위성은 핀란드의 ICEYE와 미국의 Capella 위성으로, 지구관측을 목적으로 군집(constellation) 형태로 운용되고 있다. 군집화 운용으로 인해 짧은 재방문주기(현재 0.8회/1일) 및 고해상도(Spot(0.5m))를 가지며, SAR센서 탑재로 기상 및 주야 무관하게 관측이 가능한 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 초소형위성의 운영 현황 및 특징에 대해서 기술하였으며, 초소형 SAR 위성 영상에 최적화된 수체면적 추정기술을 한반도 대청댐 유역에 적용해 보았다. 또한 광학 위성인 Sentinel-2 위성으로부터 생성된 수체를 참조값(reference)으로 하여 초소형위성 2기와 대형위성인 Sentinel-1위성과의 면적, 상관성 분석을 수행하였다. Capella 위성의 경우 가장 적은 면적의 차를 보였으며, 세 영상 모두 높은 상관관계를 나타냄을 확인하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 초소형 SAR 위성의 낮은 NESZ(Noise Equivalent Sigma Zero)에도 불구하고 수체면적 추정이 가능함을 확인하였으며, 기존 대형 SAR 위성을 활용한 수자원/수재해 감시 활용의 한계를 극복할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Photo-plethysmography (PPG), which measures changes in the peripheral blood flow of a human body using difference in absorption rate of light, is a measurement method that is studied and used in clinical and various applications due to its simple circuit configuration and measurement convenience. Magneto-plethysmography (MPG), which is newly developed by our team, is a method of measuring changes in the conductivity of biological tissues by using a eddy current induced by a time-varying magnetic field, and is not subject to optical interference. In this study, we investigated the detection characteristics of MPG according to the change of the conductivity of the object and fluid to be measured by simultaneously measuring PPG and MPG. In order to control the speed of fluid known in advance, a blood flow simulator was implemented and used. The fluid used in the experiment was general mineral water and physiological saline (0.9% NaCl) solution. Experimental results show that the amplitude change of the measured PPG was 0.3% in normal water and saline solution, and that of MPG was 77.3%. Therefore, it is considered that the magneto-plethysmography (MPG) has a strong correlation with the conductivity of the fluid.

In this paper we presented experimental results of a gas sensor utilizing multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT)composites for the alcohol detection which is useful to checking drinking and driving, for example. The MWNT-composites were deposited using spray method on PES substrates suitable for use in low-cost and flexible sensors. We observed the variation of conductance from the sensors exposed to alcohol vapors evaporated at 37C equal to the human body temperature to match real condition. As the result, the conductance was decreased with the increase of ethanol vol% diluted in water. The sensors showed good sensitivity and linearity.

Rockfish Sebastes schlegeli was exposed to fluoranthene, a ubiquitous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, at 1 and 10 $\mu$g/L for 4 weeks followed by depuration period of 8 weeks. Although the fluoranthene in the p]asma reached only 1.8$\~$1.9 times seawater concentration, it was 6.5 $\~$ 15.7 times higher in the liver, spleen and bile indicating efficient accumulation in the lipid -containing body tissues. When the exposed fish were then maintained in clean water, rapid fluoranthene decline occurred in the initial 2 weeks followed by a rather slow phase. This result suggests that fluoranthene accumulates efficiently provided the existence in the culture medium, but the contaminant disappears rapidly once the chemical source is removed. The fluoranthne residue in fish tissues my be a good indifator for relent PAHs exposure.

It is difficult to classify tidal flat surface that is composed of a mixture of mud, sand, water and microphytobenthos. We used a Linear Spectral Unmixing (LSU) method for effectively classifying the tidal flat surface characteristics within a pixel. This study aims at 1) detecting algal mat using LSU in the Saemangeum tidal flats, 2) determining a suitable end-member selection method in tidal flats, and 3) find out a habitual characteristics of algal mat. Two types of end-member were built; one is a reference end-member derived from field spectrometer measurements and the other image end-member. A field spectrometer was used to measure spectral reflectance, and a spectral library was accomplished by shape difference of spectra, r.m.s. difference of spectra, continuum removal and Mann-Whitney U-test. Reference end-members were extracted from the spectral library. Image end-members were obtained by applying Principle Component Analysis (PCA) to an image. The LSU method was effective to detect microphytobenthos, and successfully classified the intertidal zone into algal mat, sediment, and water body components. The reference end-member was slightly more effective than the image end-member for the classification. Fine grained upper tidal flat is generally considered as a rich habitat for algal mat. We also identified unusual microphytobenthos that inhabited coarse grained lower tidal flats.
