The main focus of this paper is on the study of the .gamma. ray irradiation effect upon the electrical properties of a B-kind insulator which is one of the inorganic insulators. The mica is so typical of the B kind insulators as to be selected for a sample. DC, AC, and Impulse voltage is applied to the variable .gamma. ray irradiated dose samples with the constant time duration and the time variable samples with the .gamma. ray irradiated dose. The dielectric breakdown voltage and dielectric constant are measured from the samples and we get the experimental data that the dielectric breakown voltage variations are relatively large, but the dielectric constants are almost constant. The above conclusion is useful for the selection and application of the inorganic insulators under the irradiation effects, and we expect that the conclusion can apply to not only B-kind insulators but also the inorganic insulators.

Induction of an adaptive response to ionizing radiation in mouse lymphoma (EL4) cells was studied by using cell survival fraction and apoptotic nucleosomal DNA fragmentation as biological end points. Cells in early log phase were pre-exposed to low dose of ${\gamma}$-rays (0.01 Gy) 4 or 20 hrs prior to high dose ${\gamma}$-ray (4, 8 and 12 Gy for cell survival fraction analysis; 8 Gy for DNA fragmentation analysis) irradiation. Then cell survival fractions and the extent of DNA fragmentation were measured. Significant adaptive response, increase in cell survival fraction and decrease in the extent of DNA fragmentation were induced when low and high dose .gamma.-ray irradiation time interval was 4 hr. Addition of protein or RNA synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide or 5,6-dichloro-1-.betha.-d-ribofuranosylbenzimidazole (DRFB), respectively during adaptation period, the period from low dose ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation to high dose ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation, was able to inhibit the induction of adaptive response, which is the reduction of the extent DNA fragmentation in irradiated EL4 cells. These data suggest that the induction of adaptive response to ionizing radiation in EL4 cells required both protein and RNA synthesis.

묵은 파와 시금치 종자에 저선량 ${\gamma}$선을 조사하여 종자 발아율과 발아종자의 생리활성 변화를 관찰하였다. 시금치 종자의 발아율은 대조구에 비해 저선량 조사구에서 증가하는 경향을 보였고 특히 2 Gy와 1 Gy에서 효과적이였으나 파종자에서는 1 Gy 조사구만이 대조구에 비해 높은 발아율을 보였다. 저선량 ${\gamma}$선이 조사된 파와 시금치종자의 ion leakage 조사에서는 대조구에 비해 저선량 ${\gamma}$선 조사구에서 감소하는 경향을 보였는데 이는 특히 배양 초기 단계에서 뚜렸하였다. 전분 분해 또한 ${\gamma}$선 조사에 의해 촉진되었고 저선량의 γ선은 glutamic acid의 decarboxylation 으로 인해 종자의 활력을 유지하는 잇점이 있는 것으로 나타났다.

Antibiotics have been issued recently in water environments because of potential impacts on ecosystem and public health. This study was aimed to investigating the degradation of antibiotics such as tetracycline, lincomycin, sulfamethazine and cephradine using gamma ray irradiation. And the toxicity before and after irradiation on antibiotics was tested in order to examine the aquatic eco-risk assessment by aquatic organisms. In addition, comparing tests on toxicity for gamma ray and UV irradiated antibiotics was conducted. Four different antibiotics were prepared by concentration of 30 mg/L with demi-water respectively. The absorption dose of gamma ray was ranged from 0.2 to 2 kGy. The concentration of four antibiotics was gradually decreased corresponding to the increase of the absorption dose. A method for toxicity assessment using Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was evaluated to the most acceptable compared with methods by Daphnia magna and Microtox$^{(R)}$ in terms of sensibility. It showed that the reduction of toxicity on antibiotics treated by gamma ray was superior comparing to the test results obtained from UV treatment. By-products from antibiotics treated by gamma ray were easily decomposed by microorganism and their toxicity was also evaluated to low.

This experiment was conducted to investigate radurization effects of gamma ray and electron beam irradiation at 1.5 and 3.0 kGy on beef steaks during 8 days of storage at 5$^{\circ}C$. Total bacteria count, psychrotrophs, mesophiles and thermophiles were analyzed at 2 days intervals. Nonirradiated beef steak was used a scontrol Total bacteria counts, psychrotrophs, mesophiles and thermophiles of the control samples showed 3.03∼4.72 logCFU / g at 0 day and increased to 7.67∼10.90 logCFU / g during 8 days storage except thermophiles. Total bacteria counts, psychrotrophs and mesophiles of beef steaks at 8 days were significantly (p＜0.05) decreased to 3.61∼5.43 logCFU / g by gamma ray and to 3.83∼7.02 logCFU / g by electron beam irradiation at 1.5 and 3.0 kGy. Thermophiles of all irradiated samples at any dose were not detectable through 8 days storage. These results suggested that both gamma ray and electron beam irradiation were effective to extend lag phase of bacterial growth of refrigerated beef. Gamma ray irradiation was better than electron beam irradiation in terms of radurization effects of beef.

We investigated the visible emission property of $SrTiO_3$ (STO) single crystals irradiated with gammy-ray (${\gamma}$-ray) at various total doses up to 900 kGy. The electric and optical absorption properties of the irradiated STO samples were hardly changed with the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation, compared with those of un-irradiated STO. In contrast, the visible emission near 550 nm increased with the ${\gamma}$-ray dose increasing. While the development of the visible emission was indicative of the increase of oxygen vacancies inside STO by the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation, the newly generated oxygen vacancies were not significantly harmful to the electric and optical properties of STO. We concluded that the STO single crystal should have a good tolerance against the damage by the ${\gamma}$-ray irradiation.

Adaptive response induced by low dese .gamma.-ray irradiation in human cervical carcinoma cells was examined. Cells were exposured to low dose of .gamma.-ray irradiation in human cervical carcinoma cells was examined. Cells were exposured to low dose of .gamma.-ray (1-cGy) followed by high doses of r-ray irradiation (0,1,2,3,5,7 and 9Gy for chlnogenic assay or 1.5Gy for micronucleus assay) with various time intervals. Survival fractions of cells in both low dose-irradiated and unirrated groups were analyzed by clonogenic assay. Surviva fractions of low dose-irradiated in cell survival was maximum when low and high dose irradiation time interval was 4 hr. Frequencies of micronuclei which is an indicative of chromosome aberration were also enutained from survival fractions analyzed by clonogenic assay, maximum when low and high dose irradiation time interval was 4hr. Frequencies of micronuclei which is an indicative of chromosome aberration were also enumerated in both low dose-irradiated and unirradiated groups. In consiststent with the result obtained from survival fractions analyzed by clonogenic assay, maximum reduction in frquencies of micronuclei was observed when low dose radiation was given 4 hr prior to high response to subsequent high dose .gamma.-ray irradiation in human cervical carcinomal cells. Our data suggest that one of the possible mechanisms of adaptive response induced by low dose rediation is the increase in repair of DNA double strand breaks in low dose radiation-adapted cells.

Proposals were mode on how to differentiate radiation effects in morphological phases of polyethylene and discussions were developed with the results obtained on a low density polyethylene, SOCAREX, specified by number average molecular weight; overbar Mn=5,400, density; 0.92, and degree of branch; 3.4/100 carbon atom, which was irradiated to Co$^{60}$ .gamma. ray at the dose rate of 0.5 Mrad/hr in ambient temperature under the pressure of 10$^{-5}$ Torr. or 1 atm. respectively. The effect to crystalline phase in possibly deduced from dose dependent variation of relative area between (110) and (200) peaks on X ray diffraction spectrum and that, the effects to amorphous phase can be understood through dose dependent relaxation behaviours of .betha. peak on internal friction characteristics of the specimen. The results obtained thus far indicate that, in crystalline phase, relative crystallinity shows a rather rapid decrease up to 20 Mrad with increasing dose, however, little change of crystallinity can be observed in the region between 20-200 Mrad, and degradation appears to be more predominant than crosslinking up to 60 Mrad. While in amorphous phase the indication also shows that degradation is only predominant up to 20 Mrad. Furthermore several correlations can be seen with amenable explanation between dose dependent behaviours observed in both phases.

본 논문은 감마선 방사선 선량을 측정하기 위하여 상용 반도체를 응용하기 위한 실험적 연구에 대하여 다루었다. 실리콘 포토 다이오드는 값이 싸고 작으며 높은 효율과 견고하여 광검출기로 잘 이용되기 때문에 감마선과 같은 방사선 측정에 효과적으로 이용될 수 있다. 대부분의 PN 포토 다이오드는 이 증가함에 따라 역 방향 전류의 증가하는 특성을 가지고 있다. 그러므로 이 소자들의 공핍층이 역 방향 전류에 영향을 주므로 이 공핍층의 면적이 큰 PIN 포토 다이오드를 선택하였다. 이 연구에서는 방사선량을 검출하고 감마선 선량계를 개발하는데 적용하기 위하여, PIN 다이오드에 대해 몇 가지 실험이 수행되었다. NEC사의 PH 302와 SIEMENS사의 BPW 34와 같은 2가지 종류의 포토 다이오드를 반도체 분석장치를 사용하여 $\gamma$선 방사선원인 Co-60의 저준위 시설에서 시험하였다. 그 결과, 방사선 선량률과 다이오드의 전류 사이에 양호한 선형적 함수 관계가 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 따라서, 이들 실리콘 PIN 포토 다이오드들은 $\gamma$선 선량계를 설계하는데 적합하게 이용될 수 있을 것이다.

저선량 감마선 조사에 의한 해바라기종자의 발아율과 초기생육을 통해 수량증감 여부를 조사하였고, DPPH radical 소거능 조사를 통한 항산화 활성을 분석하였다. 방사선을 조사한 직후 발아율은 무처리의 대조구에 비해 증가하였으며, 4개월 실온 보관한 후의 종자 발아율은 대조구에 비해 전체적으로 감소하는 효과를 나타내엇다. 특히 조사량이 높은 32 Gy에서의 감소율이 가장 높았으나 적정선량은 8 Gy이다. 조사된 종자의 보관 온도에 따라 초기생육에 미치는 영향을 조사한 결과, 1 Gy 조사구의 10$^{\circ}C$ 보관된 종자가 25$^{\circ}C$ 보관된 조사구에 비해 초장과 근장의 높은 증가 효과를 보여주었다. DPPH radical 소거법에 의한 항산화활성을 측정한 결과 방사선을 비조사한 대조구에 비해 조사구에서 항산화 활성이 증가하였으며, 감마선조사 후 저장기간에 관계없이 4 Gy에서 가장 높은 활성이 관찰되었다.
