이번 연구는 새싹채소 재배 시 고온의 물을 이용한 열처리가 케일 새싹의 항산화물질과 항암성물질 등과 같은 기능성물질 축적에 영향을 주는지 확인하고자 수행되었다. 실험I 에서는 파종 후 4일째 40, 50, $60^{\circ}C$의 증류수가 담긴 항온조에 각각 10, 30, 60초 동안 침지하여 열처리 하였고, 실험II 에서는 $50^{\circ}C$의 증류수에 각각 10, 20, 30, 45, 60초 침지처리 하였다. 열처리 한 케일 새싹은 다시 정상적인 생육 환경에서 2일 동안 추가적으로 재배되었다. 열처리 전, 후에 생체 중, 건물중, 전해질 유출 정도, 총 페놀 농도, 항산화도, 총 플라보노이드 농도, 페닐알라닌 암모니아-리아제 활성, 글루코시놀레이트 함량을 측정하였다. 실험I의 결과, 열처리 후 2일째 대조구에 비해 모든 처리구의 생체중, 건물중이 감소되었으며, 특히 $60^{\circ}C$ 열처리가 40, $50^{\circ}C$의 열처리보다 그 정도가 심했다. 세포 파괴에 의한 전해질 유출 정도 또한 $60^{\circ}C$에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 총 페놀 농도는 $50^{\circ}C$의 열처리에서 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 증가했으며 항산화도 또한 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 실험 II의 결과 $50^{\circ}C$ 열처리는 실험I의 결과와 같이 생체중의 감소를 보였지만 그 정도는 크지 않았으며 건물중에서는 대조구와 유의적 차이가 없었다. 열처리 후 2일째 모든 처리구는 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 높은 총 페놀 축적을 유도하였다. $50^{\circ}C$에서 20초 이상의 열처리는 대조구에 비해 약 1.5배 이상 총 페놀 농도를 증가시켰으며, 항산화도는 대조구에 비해 약 1.2배 유의적으로 높았고, 총 플라보노이드 농도 또한 대조구에 비해 높은 수준을 나타냈다. 페닐알라닌 암모니아-리아제의 활성은 열처리 24시간째에 대조구보다 모든 처리구에서 높게 나타나, 열처리가 이차대사산물의 생합성을 유도하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 열처리 후 2일째 글루코시놀레이트의 함량은 20초 열처리에서 유의적으로 가장 높은 값을 나타냈다. 따라서, 케일 새싹 재배 시 열처리는 항산화 및 항암물질과 같은 기능성물질의 축적을 유도하여 케일 새싹의 영양학적 품질향상을 도모할 수 있는 잠재적인 수단임을 확인할 수 있었다.

이산화탄소가 지구온난화를 초래하는 대표적인 온실가스로 지목되면서 대기 중의 이산화탄소 농도를 줄이기 위하여 많은 노력들이 진행되어 왔다. 그러한 노력들 중 특히 CO₂ 포집 및 지중 저장기술(carbon dioxide capture and storage, CCS)이 감축 목표량을 달성하기 위해서 필수적으로 고려되고 있다. 그러나 이러한 지중 저장기술이 상용화되기 위해서는 안전성이 보장되어야 한다. 특히 이산화탄소 누출이 농경지에서 발생할 경우에는 작물 생장과 관련되어 많은 문제를 야기할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 지중 저장지로부터 누출된 이산화탄소가 토양 비옥도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. 이를 위하여 인위적인 이산화탄소 누출 시험을 수행하였으며, pH, 양이온치환용량, 교환성 양이온, 전기전도도, 토양 유기물 함량, 총 질소, 질산태 질소, 암모니아태 질소, 총 인, 유효태 인산, 총 황, 유효태 황, 유효태 붕소 등과 같은 토양의 화학적 특성들을 비옥도 지시 인자로 선정하였다. 누출 시험은 비경작지 토양 한 종류와 경작지 토양 두 종류(옥수수와 콩 재배)를 대상으로 이루어졌다. 비경작지 토양은 거친 모래가 많은 사질토양으로 공극률은 42.6%로 조사되었으며, 경작지 토양인 옥수수 재배 토양은 양질 사토(loamy sand)로 공극률이 46.8%이었다. 콩과식물(soybean) 재배 토양은 옥수수 재배 토양과 동일한 양질 사토로서 공극률이 48%로 조사되었다. 누출시험을 위해 6개의 인공누출 칼럼 장치를 이용하여 이산화탄소를 주입하였다. 이산화탄소 주입은 비경작지와 경작지 토양의 경우 각각 60일과 70일 동안 진행하였다. 이산화탄소 누출 후 비경작지 및 경작지 토양에 대하여 각각 12, 14일 간격으로 1 공극 부피의 인공강우 모사 시험을 수행한 후 용출액과 토양 시료를 채취하여 비옥도 지시 인자를 분석하였으며, 이산화탄소 누출 전후 변화 양상을 비교 평가하였다. 토양 내 잔류 교환성 양이온, 전기전도도, 토양 유기물 함량, 총질소, 총인 등은 이산화탄소의 영향을 크게 받지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 질산태 질소, 암모니아태 질소, 유효 인산, 유효 황, 유효 붕소 등은 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 이에 의해 토양 비옥도를 저하시킬 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 토양의 완충능력 때문에 pH의 변화가 없었지만, 이산화탄소가 장기간 누출된다면 pH의 감소에 의한 토양 산성화가 초래될 가능성이 있을 것으로 예측된다.

Quality of fresh-cut tomato slices was compared during cold storage under various modified atmosphere packaging conditions. Chilling injury of slices in containers sealed with Film A was higher than with Film B; these films had oxygen transmission rates of 87.4 and 60.0 ml $h^{-1}\;m^{-2}\;atm^{-1}$ at $5^{\circ}C\;and\;99\%$ RH, respectively. While slices in containers with an initial atmospheric composition of air, $4\%\;CO_2+1\;or\;20\%\;O_2,\;8\%\;CO_2+1\;or\;20\%\;O_2,\;or\;12\%\;CO_2+20\%\;O_2$ showed fungal growth, slices in containers with $12\%\;CO_2+1\%\;O_2$ did not. Low ethylene in containers enhanced chilling injury. Modified atmosphere packaging provided good quality tomato slices with a shelf-life of 2 weeks or more at $5^{\circ}C$. Experiments were conducted to compare changes in quality of slices of red tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. 'Sunbeam') fruit from plants grown using black polyethylene or hairy vetch mulches under various foliar disease management systems including: no fungicide applications (NF), a disease forecasting model (Tom-Cast), and weekly fungicide applications (WF), during storage at $5^{\circ}C$ under a modified atmosphere. Slices were analyzed for firmness, soluble solids content (SSC), titratable acidity (TA), pH, electrolyte leakage, fungi, yeasts, and chilling injury. With both NF and Tom-Cast fungicide treatments, slices from tomato fruit grown with hairy vetch (Vicia villosa Roth) mulch were firmer than those from tomato fruit grown with black polyethylene mulch after 12 days storage. Ethylene production of slices from fruit grown using hairy vetch mulch under Tom-Cast was about 1.5- and 5-fold higher than that of slices from WF and NF fungicide treatments after 12 days, respectively. The percentage of water-soaked areas (chilling injury) for slices from tomato fruit grown using black polyethylene mulch under NF was over 7-fold that of slices from tomato fruit grown using hairy vetch under Tom-Cast. When stored at $20^{\circ}C$, slices from light-red tomato fruit grown with black polyethylene or hairy vetch mulches both showed a rapid increase in electrolyte leakage beginning 6 hours after slicing. However, slices from tomato fruit grown using the hairy vetch mulch tended to have lower electrolyte leakage than those grown with black polyethylene mulch. These results suggest that tomato fruit from plants grown using hairy vetch mulch may be more suitable for fresh-cut slices than those grown using black polyethylene mulch. Also, use of the disease forecasting model Tom-Cast, which can result in lower fungicide application than is currently used commercially, resulted in high quality fruit for fresh-cut processing. Experiments were conducted to determine if ethylene influences chilling injury, as measured by percentage of slices exhibiting water-soaked areas in fresh-cut tomato slices of 'Mountain Pride' and 'Sunbeam' tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). Ethylene concentration in containers without ventilation significantly increased during storage at $5^{\circ}C$, whereas little or no accumulation of ethylene occurred in containers with one or six perforations. Chilling injury was greatest for slices in containers with six perforations, compared to slices in containers with one perforation, and was over 13-fold greater than that of slices in control containers with no perforations. An experiment was also performed to investigate the effectiveness of including an ethylene absorbent pad in containers on subsequent ethylene accumulation and chilling injury. While ethylene in the no-pad controls increased continually during storage of both 'Mountain Pride' and 'Sunbeam' tomatoes at $5^{\circ}C$ under modified atmosphere conditions, no increase in accumulation of ethylene was observed in containers containing ethylene absorbent pads throughout storage. The ethylene absorbent pad treatment resulted in a significantly higher percentage of chilling injury compared with the no-pad control. In studies aimed at inhibiting ethylene production using AVG during storage of slices, the concentration of ethylene in control containers (no AVG) remained at elevated levels throughout storage, compared to containers with slices treated with AVG. Chilling injury in slices treated with AVG was 5-fold greater than that of controls. Further, we tested the effect of ethylene pretreatment of slices on subsequent slice shelf-life and quality. In slices treated with ethylene (0, 0.1, 1, or $10\;{mu}L\;L^{-1}$) immediately after slicing, ethylene production in non-treated controls was greater than that of all other ethylene pre-treatments. However, pretreatment of slices 3 days after slicing resulted in a different pattern of ethylene production during storage. Ihe rate of ethylene production by slices treated with 1 L $L^{-1}$ ethylene 3 days after slicing was greater during storage than any of the other ethylene treatments. With slices pre-treated with ethylene, both immediately and 3 days after slicing, the rate of ethylene production tended to show an negative correlation with chilling injury. Chemical name used: 1-aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG).

최근 continuous wave of obturation technique을 이용한 근관 충전 장비로서 열 적용뿐 만 아니라 초음파 진동의 기능이 부가된 EndoTwinn이라는 기구가 소개되었다. 이 연구의 목적은 일반적으로 널리 사용되는 System B와 새로운 기구인 EndoTwinn을 사용한 근관충전 시 근단 폐쇄 효율을 비교하기 위한 것이다. 직선형 치근을 가진 60개의 발치된 소구치와 상악 절치를 근관장 측정 후, 6% 경사의 엔진 구동형 니켈-타이타늄 파일을 이용하여 #35 파일까지 확대 및 세척하였다. SB군 (n=20)은 System B, ET군 (n=20)은 EndoTwinn을 이용해 충전하고, Obtura II를 이용하여 backfill하였다. 양성 대조군으로서 PC군(n=10)은 근관 형성 후 빈 근관으로 남겨두었다. SB, ET, PC군의 시편은 치근첨 주위 1 mm를 제외한 모든 치근면에 nail varnish을 적용하고 음성 대조군인 NSB군(n=5)과 NET군(n=5)의 시편은 치근첨을 포함한 모든 치근면에 nail varnish를 도포하였다. 각 치아의 치근첨을 메틸렌블루 용액에 2일간 담궈 보관한 후, 치근첨에서 5 mm까지 1 mm간격으로 절단하여 근관벽의 착색 정도를 평가하였고, 각 높이에서의 점수를 합하여 그 시편의 점수로 정하였다. 두 장비 간의 염색제 누출의 유의성 검정을 위해 student t 분석을 시행하였다. 완전히 잘려지지 않고 플러거에 가타퍼챠가 달려나오는 빈도를 비교하기 위해 카이 분석을 시행하였다. PC군은 모든 근관과 상아세관이 착색되었으며, NC군은 착색이 되지 않았다. ET군의 착색 정도가 SB군보다 유의하게 적게 나타났으며(p < 0.05). 플러거에 가타펴챠가 달려나오는 빈도는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 이 실험의 조건하에서, EndoTwinn을 이용해 충전한 경우에 System B를 이용해 충전한 경우보다 근단부 밀폐 정도가 더 좋은 것으로 사료된다.

A lot of parts in FGD (Flue Gas Desulfurization) systems of fossil-fuel power plants show the environments in which are highly changeable and extremely acidic corrosive medium according to time and locations, e.g. in duct works, coolers and re-heaters etc. These conditions are formed when system materials are immersed in fluid that flows on them or when exhausted gas is condensed into thin layered acidic medium to contact materials of the system walls and roofs. These environments make troublesome corrosion and air pollution problems that are occurred from the leakage of the condensed solution. To cathodically protect the metallic structures in extremely acidic fluid, the properties of the protective coatings on the metal surface were very important, and epoxy Novolac coating was applied in this work. On the base of acid immersion tests, hot sulfuric acid decreased the hardness of the coatings and reduced greatly the content of $Na_2O$, $Al_2O_3$, and $SiO_2$ among the main components of the coating. A special kind of CP(Cathodic Protection) system has been developed and tested in a real scale of the FGD facility. Applied coating for this CP system was peeled off and cracked in some parts of the facility. However, the exposed metal surface to extremely acidic fluid by the failure of the coatings was successfully protected by the new CP system.

A small cationic peptide (JH8944) was tested for activity against a number of pathogens of agricultural crops. JH8944 inhibited conidium growth in most of the tested plant pathogens with a dose of $50{\mu}g/ml$, although one isolate of Fusarium oxysporum was inhibited at $5{\mu}g/ml$ of JH8944. Most conidia of Fusarium graminearum were killed within 6 hours of treatment with $50{\mu}g/ml$ of JH8944. Germinating F. graminearum conidia required $238{\mu}g/ml$ of JH8944 for 90% growth inhibition. The peptide did not cause any damage to tissues surrounding maize leaf punctures when tested at a higher concentration of $250{\mu}g/ml$ even after 3 days. Liposomes consisting of phosphatidylglycerol were susceptible to leakage after treatment with 25 and $50{\mu}g/ml$ of JH8944. These experiments suggest this peptide destroys fungal membrane integrity and could be utilized for control of crop fungal pathogens.

The design and fabrication of a metallic bipolar plate-gasket assembly for polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEMFCs) is defined. This bipolar plate-gasket assembly was prepared by inserting a previously prepared bipolar plate in the specially designed gasket mold. For this aim, a proprietary fluoro-silicone based rubber was injected directly into the bipolar plate borders. Gaskets obtained like this showed the chemically / physically stable and the good sealibilty in typically operating PEM fuel cell conditions. And also, this bipolar plate-gasket assembly shows lots of advantages with respect to traditional PEMFCs stack assembling systems: useful application to automative stacking due to easy handling, reduced fabrication time, possibility of quality control and failed elements substitution. This bipolar plate-gasket assembly was evaluated in the short fuel cell stack and met the leakage requirement for normal operation both in short-term and in long-term operation. Especially, it was confirmed that this gasket could be applied successfully even in the high pressure FEM fuel cell systems(over 2.0 bar in absolute pressure).

This paper presents a transformer-based reconfigurable synchronous boost converter. The lowest maximum power point tracking (MPPT)-input voltage and peak efficiency of the proposed boost converter, 20 mV and 88%, respectively, were achieved using a reconfigurable synchronous structure, static power loss minimization design, and efficiency boost mode change (EBMC) method. The proposed reconfigurable synchronous structure for high efficiency enables both a transformer-based self-startup mode (TSM) and an inductor-based MPPT mode (IMM) with a power PMOS switch instead of a diode. In addition, a static power loss minimization design, which was developed to reduce the leakage current of the native switch and quiescent current of the control blocks, enables a low input operation voltage. Furthermore, the proposed EBMC method is able to change the TSM into IMM with no additional time or energy loss. A prototype chip was implemented using a $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS process, and operates within an input voltage range of 9 mV to 1 V, and an output voltage range of 1 V to 3.3 V, and provides a maximum output power of 37 mW.

In this paper, a blood vessel in an angiographic image, which plays an importance role in the diagnose diseases including in the eyes, brain and heart, is enhanced by using a directed diffusion technique. A fundamental component of the angiographic analysis is vessel segmentation that the proposed method provides a preprocessing of the image into a form suitable for human analysis, or more importantly, for machine analysis such the segmentation. Vessel enhancement is a challenging problem due to the complex nature of vascular trees and to imaging imperfections. Some parts of the inherent imperfections in angiography are the intensity inhomogeneity between the larger and smaller vessels, and another imperfection is the leakage of contrast agent into the background tissue that provides to low contrast between vessels and tissue. In the proposed scheme, the directed diffusion solves the problem by formulating a local geometric structure, which consists of direction and scale of the blood vessels. The diffusion process uses the local structure to enhance by a diffusivity tensor. The proposed algorithm can be applied to maintain sharpness and coherence-smooth the intra-regions into homogeneity better than traditional diffusion methods, which are Gaussian regulation and coherence enhancing diffusion.

Technology development is leading to the invention of more sophisticated electronics appliances that require long battery life. Therefore, saving power is a major concern in current-day scenarios. A notable source of power dissipation in sequential structures of integrated circuits is due to the continuous switching of high-frequency clock signals, which do not carry any information, and hence, their switching is eliminated by a method called clock gating. In this paper, we have incorporated a recent clock-gating style named Leakage Control Transistor (LECTOR)-based clock gating to drive a multi-stage sequential architectures, and we focus on its performance under three different process corners (fast-fast, slow-slow, typical-typical) through Monte Carlo simulation at 18 GHz clock with 90 nm technology. This gating is found to be one of the best gated approaches for multi-stage architectures in terms of total power consumption.
