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.

식물유전자원의 소재를 확대하고자 동진 1호 벼의 건조 종자에 감마선($^{60}Co$, 300 Gy)을 조사하여 선발한 조기출수 계통의 유전적 변이성을 분석하였다. 선발한 조기출수 계통의 $M_7$(2010년)과 $M_8$(2011년) 세대에서 평균 출수기는 대조품종인 동진 1호(중만생종) 보다 각각 11일(${\gamma}$-2 계통), 10일(${\gamma}$-5 계통), 6일(${\gamma}$-1 계통), 5일(${\gamma}$-3 계통), 4일(${\gamma}$-4 계통)이 빠르게 나타났다. ISSR 분석 결과, 선발계통의 유전적 다형성은 ${\gamma}$-2 계통 5.9%, ${\gamma}$-1 계통 7.5%, ${\gamma}$-4 계통 15.1%, ${\gamma}$-3 계통 15.3%, X-1 계통 19.4%, ${\gamma}$-5 계통 23.4%로 대조품종의 4.3% 보다 높게 나타나 방사선 조사로 DNA 수준에서 변이가 증가되었음을 확인하였다. 엽록체 DNA(rps16-trnK 영역) 분석 결과, 염기 길이는 대조 품종과 같은 664 bp인 반면, 총 5개 염기서열 영역에서 치환 변이가 발생하였고 그 중 6 bp 및 587 bp 영역의 변이는 선발 계통에서만 나타났다.

In this paper, we measured the activation energy of the Bisphenol A type Epoxy resin (DGEBA)-Jeffamine system according to an irradiation. We put the mixed solutions to the silicon mold after mixing both DGEBA(216g) and Jeffamine(93.9g), curing agent of amine system. The mixed solutions were cured in the atmosphere during 24hours after finishing the first curing during 4hours in the vacuum oven under $80^{\circ}C$. The mixed solutions were cured in the atmosphere during 24hours after finishing the second curing during 12hours in the vacuum oven under $60^{\circ}C$ again. Prepared samples were irradiated to the dose rate of 8kGy/hr with 500kGy, 700kGy, 1000kGy, 1500kGy, 2000kGy, 2500kGy. Experimental results indicated activation energy of the samples reduced as the irradiation dose increased because of the peroxides of the Epoxy created by the oxidation and the radiation.

pH-sensitive hydrogels were studied as a drug carrier for the protection of insulin from the acidic environment of the stomach before releasing it in the small intestine. In this study, hydrogels based on poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) networks grafted with methacrylic acid (MAA) or acrylic acid (AAc) were prepared via a two-step process. PEO hydrogels were prepared by ${\gamma}-ray $ irradiation (radiation dose: 50 kGy, dose rate: 7.66 kGy/h), grafted by either MAA or AAc monomers onto the PEO hydrogels and finally underwent irradiation (radiation dose: 520 kGy, dose rate: 2.15 kGy/h). These grafted hydrogels showed a pH-sensitive swelling behavior. The grafted hydrogels were used as a carrier for the drug delivery systems for the controlled release of insulin. Drug-loaded hydrogels were placed in simulated gastric fluid (SGF, pH 1.2) for 2 hr and then in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF, pH 6.8). The in vitro drug release behaviors of these hydrogels were examined by quantification analysis with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer.

This study was carried out to assess the effect of radiation on the changes of Hizikia fusiformis cooking juice ethanol extract and to compare the effect of gamma ray and electron beam. On the applying radiation, the dark color of cooking juice became changed with higher brightness and lower redness and yellowness. But, there was no difference between gamma ray radiation and electron beam radiation. 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl radical scavenging activity and tyrosinase inhibitory activity of cooking juice were shown to be increased by radiation independent on the radiation source types. The reason for the increased biological activities was caused by higher content of total phenolic compounds. The results could be applied to investigate the effect of radiation source on the color and antioxidant activity of biomaterials, and it was thought that irradiation could be an promising method for enhancing the biological activity of biomaterials.

Gamma-ray irradiation is known to induce various mutations in plants caused by chromosome alterations. This study investigated disease responses of selected gamma-ray induced rice mutants generated from seven Japonica-type rice cultivars against three plant diseases. Among the tested 22 mutants, three gain-of-function mutants and six loss-of-function mutants against rice blast were obtained, as well as three loss-of-function mutants against bacterial leaf blight (BLB). Two of the loss-of-function mutants were susceptible to both rice blast and BLB. Gain-of-function mutation has not been frequently observed in rice plants, thus, the mutants can be used to identify loci of novel genes for the regulation of disease resistant response.

광섬유는 신호를 전달하는 통신용 섬유, 물체를 관찰하기 위한 이미지 섬유, 각종 센서용 광섬유로서 원자력분야에서 사용된다. 특히 센서용 섬유로서 라만 산란광을 이용한 온도감지 섬유와 광섬유 브래그 격자을 이용한 온도/스트레인 섬유, 광자기효과를 이용한 광회전센서 섬유 등은 이미 실용화되어 있다. 그러나 광섬유에 방사선을 조사하면 색중심(color center)이 생성되어 광의 투과성이 크게 저하되고, 방사선 환경에서 적용의 제한이 있다. 본 논문에서는 고준위 방사선환경에 대한 광섬유 센서의 적용을 위한 연구로서 Ge가 함유된 일반단일모드 광섬유에 대한 감마선 조사에 따른 전송손실 특성 평가를 수행하였다. 시험에 사용된 방사선원은 $Co^{60}$ 감마선원으로, 총 4시간동안 0.5kGy/hr, 2kGy/hr, 8kGy/hr의 선량률(dose rate)로 조사하였다. 그 결과 감마선조사에 의한 단일모드 광섬유의 전송손실이 뚜렷하게 나타났고, 동일 누적선량에서 선량률이 클수록 전송손실이 증가하는 선량률 효과와 조사 후 광섬유의 전송손실이 클수록 손실 회복율이 증가하는 열화(annealing) 특성을 보였다. 본 시험결과는 향후 광섬유의 내방사화 연구의 기초자료로 활용할 계획이다.

Uniaxial tension and compression test were conducted on conventional and crosslinked ultra-high molecular polyethylene (UHMWPE) all prepared from the same lot of medical grade GUR 1050. The conventional materials were unirradiated and gamma irradiated with $25kGy{\sim}200kGy$. Gamma irradiated processing was found to significantly impact the crystallinity, and hence the mechanical behavior, of the highly crosslinked UHMWPE. The crystallinity and radiation dose were key predictors of the uniaxial yielding, hardness, plastic flow, and failure properties of conventional and highly crosslinked UHMWPE. The correlation model from experiments would be the basic information to design the liner of artificial joint.

Retaining a drug in the stomach by some means is sometimes necessary to extend the G1 absorption time of the drug more than 6-8 hrs. Hydrogel has often been examined for its feasibility as a dosage form, so called platform, that could be retained in the stomach due to its excellent swelling properties in the gastric fluid. In this study, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) hydrogel crosslinked by albumin or acrylated albumin was synthesized in a tablet form and evaluated for its possibility as the platform. The synthesis of the hydrogel was performed by $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}-ray$ irradiation of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone (monomer) in the presence of a crosslinking agent: aqueous solution of albumin or acrylated albumin. Synthetic conditions such as radiation dose, dose rate and concentration of crosslinking agent were varied in order to optimize the swelling and mechanical properties of the hydrogels. Degree of swelling of albumin-crosslinked PVP (Al-PVP) was highly dependent on radiation dose, dose rate and albumin concentration: it was decreased as they increased. On the other hand, that of acrylated albumin-crosslinked PVP (Acryl-PVP) was almost independent on them except dose rate: it was decreased as the radiation dose rate increased. The compressive strength of the two hydrogels was decreased as the dose rate increased. Digestion of both PVP in artificial gastric fluid containing pepsin was delayed by the ${\gamma}-ray$ irradiation. In conclusion, Al-PVP and Acry-PVP with diverse swelling and mechanical properties could be obtained by controlling synthetic conditions, mainly the irradiation dose rate.

Gamma-irradiation (0-7 kGy) of ginseng is permitted in Korea for the purpose of microbial decontamination; with strict labeling, traceability and monitoring requirements. An identification study was conducted to determine the photostimulated-luminescence (PSL) and thermoluminescence (TL) properties of gamma-irradiated fresh and white ginsengs cultivated in different areas. Dose- dependent PSL-based screening was possible for white ginseng samples; however, inappropriate results from non-irradiated fresh ginseng samples were obtained, showing intermediate (700 to 5,000) or positive ($T_2$ >5,000, irradiated) PSL counts due to the abundance of minerals on the surfaces of the samples. TL analysis of separated minerals from all non-irradiated samples gave TL glow curves of low intensity with a maximum peak after $300^{\circ}C$. However, well-defined irradiation-specific (high intensity with a maximum peak at about $200^{\circ}C$) glow curves were observed for all the irradiated samples, regardless of their type and origins. TL ratios (first glow curve /second glow curve) were also determined to confirm the irradiated (>0.1) and non-irradiated (<0.1) results. SEM-EDX (scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray) and XRD (X-ray diffraction) spectroscopic analyses showed that feldspar and quartz minerals were the main source for the typical radiation-specific luminescence properties.
