  • This report will introduce the epitome about the subject, HANARO (Hi-flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor designed by KAERI in early 1995) Utilization Education Training Program Development and Operation, which is one of the nuclear research basic expansion businesses executed from 1999. 12. to strengthen the usage of HANARO. This program consists of the basic reactor experiments program for university students who have specialty of nuclear and other engineering, and the special research education program for faculties from universities and researchers from industrial fields. Principle lessons are reactor operation, radioisotope production, neutron activation analysis, neutron radiography, radiation shield (health physics), nuclear fuel combustion measurement by gamma scanning arrangement, and CNS (Compact Nuclear Simulator) and so on.

  • Residues of neoasozine in rice grain were determined by neutron activation and colorimetric techniques. Twice application of the chemical before flowering did not lead to any increased residue level while 4-times application resulted in significant increase in the residue level up to 0.54-0.75 mg $As_2O_3/kg$. The partition ratio of arsenic residues into polished rice grain and bran was 73 : 27 in 100% polishing while most of the residues in the bran was transferred to oil cake fraction during solvent extraction, reaching up to 2.9 mg $As_2O_3/kg$. The neutron activation technique was advantageous because of its high sensitivity and the smaller sample amounts required for analysis.

  • The study was designed to establish a more nearly quantitative method for assessing the marginal leakage of dental restorations. 27 Class V cavities with $45^{\circ}$ bevel joint were prepared and classified into 2 groups. One group was filled with Scotchbond and silux. The other group was filled with glass ionomer cement, Scotchbond and silux. After finishing, all specimens were subjected manually to 100 thermal cycles at $0^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$ water-bath. They were soaked in a samarium nitrate solution for 3 hours, irradiated with flux of $6{\times}10^{12}$ neutrons/$cm^2$/sec for 11 hours, cooled for 200 hours, counted with the HPGE detector and the tracer uptake was determined by comparison with a standard of samarium (10 ${\mu}g$). The following results were obtained. 1. Both of the two groups showed a considerable amounts of marginal leakage. 2. The group filled without glass ionomer cement base showed more marginal leakage than the group filled with glass ionomer cement base. 3. Neutron Activation Analysis produced a good quantitative method to measure the marginal leakage and samarium was appropriate to measure the marginal leakage of resin restorations using neutron activation analysis.

  • The selenium content of a wide variety of Korean food was determined by neutron activation analysis. Most fruits and vegetables contained quantities of selenium less than $0.4{\mu}g/g$. Grain products varied widely in their selenium content with $0.5{\mu}g/g$ and barley cereal as high as $0.7{\mu}g/g$. Dried milk powder sample ranged from $0.7\;to\;0.15{\mu}g/g$. Chicken muscle contained about $0.7{\mu}g/g$. The content of sea food was generally higher, ranging from $0.3\;to\;3.65{\mu}g/g$. These values suggest that a diet well balanced in other nutrients is probably also nutritionally adequate with regard to selenium, although possible effects of cooking and biological availability remain to be investigated.
