The efficient refinement of seed is required to reduce the cost and labor input in artificial propagation of wild plant. This study was carried out to develop methods for collecting and refining tiny seeds from wild plants. For obtaining Phragmites communis seeds, the inflorescence was cut into small fragments using a Straw Cutter and subsequently detached pappus hairs from seed coat by Hammer Mill. The primary refined seeds were passed 1.0 mm sieve. The screened seeds were subjected to Seed Blower with wind speed of 0.25 mㆍsec-1 to collected intact and well-ripen seeds. The seeds of Imperata cylindrica were refined as follows. Inflorescences were cut using a Straw Cutter first. The pappus was removed from cut fragments using a Hammer Mill and subsequently subjected to Seed Scarifier at 500rpm for 60 sec. for further separation. The separated seeds were passed 1.0 mm screen and collected after blowing with Seed Blower of wind speed of 0.15 mㆍsec-1. When the amount of seed was too little to refine with Seed Scarifier and Blower, the procedure was slightly modified from the procedure described above. The crude seed mixture obtained from Hammer Mill step was hand-refined roughly and then immersed into cone. (95%) sulfuric acid for 2 min. and collected floating portion after dilution of sulfuric acid solution 100 times with tap water. The collected seeds were dried and passed 0.149 mm sieve. During seed refining process using mechanical or sulfuric acid treatments, a small portion of damaged seed were evolved, however, the amount was not noticeable as compared to the total amount of collected seeds. Because the germination percentages between hand-refined seeds and seeds refined by above methods were not statistically different, the developed procedures for refining tiny seed of wild plants are helpful to reduce the cost and labor input in artificial propagation of two species.

In 2014, the first demineralization plant, using nanofiltration (NF) membrane coupled with renewable energies was realized at Al Annouar high school of Sidi Taibi, Kenitra, Morocco. This project has revealed difficulties related to the membrane performances loss (pressure increase, flux decline, poor water quality of the produced water and increase of energy consumption), as consequences of membrane fouling. To solve this problem, an autopsy of the membrane was done in order to determine the nature and origin of the fouling. The samples of membrane and fouling were then analyzed by scanning electron microscopy using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) connected with an energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) detection system and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). Moreover, three cleaning solutions (hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and sulfuric acid) were tested and assessed in a single cleaning step to find the suitable one for the fouled membrane to regain its initial permeability and performances. The analysis of the experimental results showed that the fouling layer is mainly composed of calcium carbonate (inorganic fouling). Results showed also that the permeability is improved by the hydrochloric acid cleaning (pH=3) with a cleaning efficiency of 93%. Cleaning efficiency did not exceed 75 % with nitric acid (pH=3) and 40 % with sulfuric acid (pH=3).

연 종자의 발아 특성을 구명하기 위해 전남 무안산 백련 종자를 이용해 종피의 파상부위, 발아 온도, 황산용액 처리 농도 및 시간별에 따른 종자 무게 변화와 발아율을 조사하였다. 종자를 파상하지 않고 파종한 것은 15일째가 되어도 전혀 발아가 되지 않았다. 그러나 기부를 파상하여 $25^{\circ}C$에서 발아를 시킨 것은 6일 만에 100%가 발아 되어 가장 우수한 결과를 보였다. 종자를 물에 침적시켰을 때 물에 뜬 것(0.90 g)과 가라앉은 것(1.18 g) 모두 발아 되었으나 침적된 종자를 $25^{\circ}C$에서 발아 시켰을 때 발아세가 가장 좋았다. 황산처리는 80% 용액에서 40-160분간 침적처리 했을때 6일째에 100%가 발아해 가장 우수한 발아세를 나타내었다. 종자 채취 후 0개월, 12개월 및 24개월 된 것을 파종한 결과 발아세와 발아율에 차이가 없었다. 위와 같은 결과는 연의 종자번식에 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Rice endosperm, the portion that remains after milling, is the part of the rice seed that is primarily consumed as a source of nutrients. There have been many studies on polysaccharides, such as hemicellulose, cellulose, and pectins, derived from the cell walls of various plant groups. It has been reported that the acidic polysaccharide fractions, which contain water-soluble pectins that have been shown to have pharmacological effects in vivo and in vitro, have common chemical structures that include galacturonic acid polymers, rhamnose, arabinose, and galactose. However, few studies have been conducted on the acidic polysaccharides contained in the endosperm of rice. In this study, we quantitatively compared the differences in the acidic polysaccharide contents from samples from two of the main varieties of rice consumed as staple foods, japonica and indica, using a colorimetric method. Rice samples were collected from 39 different regions in Korea, China, Thailand and Vietnam. Acidic polysaccharide fractions were obtained by precipitation of the alcohol-insoluble residue (AIR) and enzyme treatment of each sample. The total amount of carbohydrates and uronic acid in each acidic polysaccharide fraction were measured using the phenol-sulfuric acid method and the carbazole-sulfuric acid method, respectively. The differences in the total polysaccharide contents in the acidic polysaccharide fractions were not statistically significant (p = 0.07), but the uronic acid contents were significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.04).

본 연구는 Y 정수장의 세라믹 정밀여과막 공정을 위한 최적의 약품세척 조건을 도출하고자 수행되었다. 세라믹 막 공정의 전처리로 오존과 응집공정이 있는 A계열의 경우 응집공정만 있는 B계열에 비해 9배 정도 잦은 약품세척(CIP)를 실시하였다. 이는 전처리 공정의 차이로 인하여 A와 B계열의 막오염현상이 다르게 나타난 근본적인 원인 이외에 막제조업체가 제시한 CIP 방법이 부적절한 것으로 조사되었다. 즉, CIP 회복률이 보정여과유속이 아니라 보정차압을 기준으로 계산되어 과대평가되었을 뿐만 아니라 구연산이 철산화물에 의한 파울링을 효과적으로 제거하지 못했기 때문이었다. 따라서 1단계 산세척 약품종류를 달리하여 CIP 효율을 평가한 결과 황산(0.1 N)과 구연산(1%)를 혼합하여 사용한 경우 회복률이 가장 높았고, 황산(0.1 N)만을 사용한 경우 회복률이 가장 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 황산의 농도를 0.3 N로 높인 결과 산세척 효율은 증가하였으나 알칼리세척 회복률이 낮아져 총회복률은 0.1 N 황산을 사용한 것과 유사하였다. 산과 알칼리세척 순서를 바꿔서 CIP를 수행한 결과 산세척을 먼저 수행시 CIP 효율이 더 높은 것으로 나타났다.

폴리머콘크리트는 시멘트 콘크리트에 비해 강도와 내구성에 탁월한 성능을 가지고 있지 때문에 건설현장에서도 다양한 용도로 개발되어 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 폴리머콘크리트는 그 결합재로 쓰이는 수지의 가격이 높아 경제적인 면에서는 다소 불리하여 기존의 수지를 대체할 수 있는 결합재에 관한 연구가 진행되고 있다. PET를 재활용한 폴리머콘크리트는 산업폐기물을 재활용하여 경제적인 건설 신소재를 개발할 수 있어 그 영역이 점차 확대될 것으로 전망된다. 본 연구에서는 하수관거 및 폐수 시설 등에서 발생하고 있는 황산에 의한 피해를 줄이기 위한 방법의 일환으로 충전재 변화에 따른 PET 재활용 폴리머콘크리트의 황산에 의한 침식 실험을 실시하였다. 실험 결과 충전재로 중탄산칼슘을 사용한 경우는 외형 및 표면 상태에서 부식의 흔적이 있었으며, 중량 변화 및 강도 변화에서도 장기간 부식 환경에 노출 될 경우 문제점을 야기할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 반면에 충전재로 플라이애쉬를 사용한 경우는 중량변화 및 강도 변화가 적었으며 외형에서도 침지하지 않은 실험체와 거의 변화가 없었다. 이것은 플라이애쉬의 입자의 밀실 충전효과와, 강한 유리질결정체로 구성된 입자 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, 하수관거, 공장 폐수시설등 부식 환경 하에서의 구조물에서는 플라이애쉬를 충전재로 사용한 폴리머콘크리트의 사용이 적절한 것으로 나타났다.

A Mono Q HR 5/5 anion-exchange column with a FPLC system was used to separate exogenously expressed calmodulin from endogenous tobacco calmodulins. Transgenic tobacco calmodulins were purified by fractionation with ammonium sulfate, precipitation with sulfuric acid and hydrophobic chromatography on phenyl-Sepharose CL-4B. The purified calmodulins were chromatographed in the FPLC using the column. This method was selected because of the slight differences in the net charge of foreign and endogenous plant calmodulins due to amino acid sequence differences. By this approach, the exogenously expressed calmodulin was isolated from endogenous tobacco calmodulins. The isolated calmodulin was characterized by amino acid composition analysis as well as methylation analysis.

We investigated whether carboxylate exudation of Brassica pekinensis Rupr. was affected by nitrate deposition from simulated acid rain. A gas chromatographic (GC) analysis was employed for the determination of low molecular weight organic acids (LOA) in rhizosphere soils, bulk soil, roots and leaves of Brassica pekinensis Rupr.. Rhizosphere soils were collected after 8 weeks of plant growth by first removing the bulk soil from the root system and then by mechanical move off the rhizosphere soil that adhered to the root surface with soft brush. Soil and plant materials were simultaneously extracted with the mixture of methanol and sulfuric acid (100:7, v/v). Seven organic acids, oxalic, malonic, fumaric, succinic, maleic, L-malic and citric acid were identified and quantified by GC equipped with FID. Oxalic, L-malic, and citric acids were found in both the bulk and rhizosphere soils, while most LOAs were not detected in the control treatment. On the contrary, except maleic acid, all other organic acids were detected in the leaves and roots of cabbages treated with nitrate deposition.
