This study analyzed and verified the effects of a dietary education program for Korean young adults in single-person households. The dietary education program was conducted for five weeks (from November 10 to December 8, 2020) for Korean young adults in single-person households living in Seongbuk-gu, via four face-to-face education sessions and one online education session, including both theoretical lectures and practice. The effect of the dietary education program was analyzed through the Nutrition Quotient (NQ) questionnaire for adults provided by the Korean Nutrition Society, a dietary evaluation checklist questionnaire developed by the researchers, and photovoices. The average of 'Nutrition' score increased from 51.81 to 53.20, but there was no statistically significant difference. However, there was a significant change in the 'Moderation' category (p<0.05). As for the researcher-developed dietary evaluation, the average of the 'Importance' area rose from 3.77 to 3.99, but there was no statistically significant difference. The average of the 'Practice' area rose from 3.03 to 3.57, significant results were found (p<0.05). When the pre-/post-tests were compared by the sub-categories, four elements of 'Importance', i.e., balanced meals and avoided foods, and all five elements of 'Practice' were significantly improved (p<0.05). A total of 200 photovoices were analyzed according to Social Cognitive Theory. As a result of the analysis, the deterrents that help people eat healthy homemade food were 48% environmental factors, 30% behavioral factors, and 22% individual cognitive factors. The deterrents found to hinder participants from eating healthy homemade food were 72% environmental factors and 14% individual cognitive and behavioral factors. The results suggest that the dietary education program for Korean young adults in single-person households can be an effective tool that promotes self-motivation, behavioral changes, and improvements of the surrounding environment.

TiO2는 물리적, 화학적 안정성이 높고, 신체에 무해하여 태양전지, 치과용 임플란트 및 광촉매 같은 다양한 분야에서 사용되어 왔다. 비표면적이 큰 TiO2 나노섬유는 생체 친화성 제품에서 좋은 반응성과 공기 및 수질 정화시 우수한 광촉매 특성을 보여주었다. TiO2 나노섬유를 제조하기 위해 전기방사법을 사용하였으며, 제조 변수에 따른 직경 변화를 관찰하기 위해 precursor 성분 변수와 공정 변수로 구분하여 미세구조 변화를 분석하였다. Precursor 성분 변수로는 PVP(Polyvinylpyrrolidone) 및 TTIP(Titanium(IV) isopropoxide)의 농도를 선택하였고, 공정 변수로는 주입 속도와 인가 전압을 선택하였다. TiO2 나노섬유의 미세구조와 결정구조는 FE-SEM(Field emission scanning electron microscope)와 XRD(X-ray diffraction)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 450℃에서 3시간 열처리 공정을 통해, 평균 직경 약 0.27 ㎛에서 1.31 ㎛를 갖는 asspun TiO2 나노섬유가 0.22 ㎛에서부터 0.78 ㎛의 평균 직경을 갖는 anatase 상의 TiO2 나노섬유로 상전이 됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 평균 직경 0.22 ㎛의 anatase TiO2 나노섬유는 비 표면적 증대에 의한 광촉매 특성 향상을 기대할 수 있다. 또한 TiO2 나노섬유의 직경 변화를 위해서는 주입 속도 및 인가 전압과 같은 공정 변수보다는 PVP 농도 및 TTIP 농도와 같은 precursor 성분 변수를 제어하는 것이 더욱 효과적이었다.

TiO2 has been used in various fields such as solar cells, dental implants, and photocatalysis, because it has high physical and chemical stability and is harmless to the body. TiO2 nanofibers which have a large specific surface area also show a good reactivity in bio-friendly products and excellent photocatalysis in air and water purification. To fabricate TiO2 nanofibers, an electrospinning method was used. To observe the diameter of TiO2 nanofibers with fabrication variables, the fabrication variables was divided into precursor composition variables and process variables and microstructure was analyzed. The concentrations of PVP (Polyvinylpyrrolidone) and TTIP (Titanium(IV) isopropoxide) were selected as precursor composition variables, and inflow velocity and voltage were also selected as process variables. Microstructure and crystal structure of TiO2 nanofibers were analyzed using FE-SEM (Field emission scanning electron microscope) and XRD (X-ray diffraction), respectively. As-spun TiO2 nanofibers with an average diameter of about 0.27 ㎛ to 1.31 ㎛ were transformed to anatase TiO2 nanofibers with an average diameter of about 0.22 ㎛ to 0.78 ㎛ after heat treatment of 3 hours at 450℃. Anatase TiO2 nanofibers with an average diameter of 0.22 ㎛ can be expected to improve the photocatalytic properties by increasing the specific surface area. To change the average diameter of TiO2 nanofibers, the control of precursor composition variables such as concentrations of PVP and TTIP is more efficient than the control of electrospinning process variables such as inflow velocity and voltage.

NDF (No Defect Found) is a phenomenon in which defects have been found in the manufacturing, operation and use of a product or facility, but phenomenon of defects is not reproduced in the subsequent investigation system or the cause of the defects cannot be identified. Recently, with the development of the fourth industrial revolution, convergence of hardware and software technologies in various fields is spreading to products such as aircraft, home appliances, and mobile devices, and the number of parts is increasing due to functional convergence. The application of such convergence technologies and the increase in the number of parts are major factors that lead to an increase in NDF phenomena. NDF phenomena have a significant negative impact on cost, reliability, and reliability for both manufacturers, service providers and operators. On the other hand, due to the nature of NDF phenomena such as difficult and intermittent cause identification and ambiguity in judgment, it is common to underestimate the cost of NDF or fail to take appropriate countermeasures in corporate management. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a methodology for estimating NDF costs by the PAF model which is a quality cost analysis model and ABC (Activity Based Costing) technique. The methodology of this study suggests a detailed procedure and the concept to accurately estimate the NDF costs, using ABC analysis, accounting system information, and IT system data. In addition case studies have validated the methodology. We think this could be a valid methodology to refer to when estimating the cost of other parts. And, it is meaningful to provide important judgment information in the decision-making process based on quality management and ultimately reduce NDF costs by visualizing them separately by major variable factors.

We investigate the effect of phosphorous content on the microstructure and magnetic properties of Fe_83.2Si_5.33-0.33xB_10.67-0.67xP_xCu_0.8 (x = 1-4 at.%) nanocrystalline soft magnetic alloys. The simultaneous addition of Cu and P to nanocrystalline alloys reportedly decreases the nanocrystalline size significantly, to 10-20 nm. In the P-containing nanocrystalline alloy, P atoms are distributed in an amorphous residual matrix, which suppresses grain growth, increases permeability, and decreases coercivity. In this study, nanocrystalline ribbons with a composition of Fe_83.2Si_5.33-0.33xB_10.67-0.67xP_xCu_0.8 (x = 1-4 at.%) are fabricated by rapid quenching melt-spinning and thermal annealing. It is demonstrated that the addition of a small amount of P to the alloy improves the glass-forming ability and increases the resistance to undesirable Fe_x(B,P) crystallization. Among the alloys investigated in this work, an Fe_83.2Si₅B₁₀P₁Cu_0.8 nanocrystalline ribbon annealed at 460℃ exhibits excellent soft-magnetic properties including low coercivity, low core loss, and high saturation magnetization. The uniform nanocrystallization of the Fe_83.2Si₅B₁₀P₁Cu_0.8 alloy is confirmed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy analysis.

기업의 경쟁우위를 결정하는 핵심 요소로서 기술혁신의 중요성이 강조되는 가운데, 혁신의 지속 여부 또한 중요한 연구 대상이 되고 있다. 혁신 지속(innovation persistence)은 기업의 혁신이 일회성으로 그치지 않고 지속적으로 이루어지고 있는지를 나타내는 개념이다. 혁신 연구에 사용되는 자료는 대부분의 국가에서 횡단면 조사로 수행됨에 따라 종단적인 지속 현상을 다룬 연구는 드문 편이며, 특히 국내의 혁신조사 자료를 이용하여 혁신 지속 현상을 살펴본 연구는 거의 없다. 본 연구는 문헌 연구를 바탕으로 기업의 혁신 지속에 대한 개념과 특징을 고찰하는 한편, 우리나라 기업의 기술혁신 지속 현황 및 특성에 대한 실증 분석을 수행하였다. 분석을 위해 2012년부터 2018년까지 격년으로 수행된 한국기업혁신조사 자료를 바탕으로, 복수관측된 3,379개 기업에 대한 불균형 패널자료를 구성하였다. 기술혁신의 지속 현상을 살펴본 결과, 지속적인 혁신이 관측되는 기업은 전체 중 일부(혁신성과에서는 10~12%, 혁신활동에서는 15~17%)에 불과하였으며, 오히려 비혁신의 지속 현상이 두드러지는 것으로 나타났다(약 52~57%). 또한 혁신성과보다는 혁신활동의 지속 현상이 강한 것으로 확인되었다. 이 외에도 제품혁신이 공정혁신보다, 내부 R&D가 공동/외부 R&D보다 지속성이 높게 나타나는 등 세부 유형에 따른 지속 현상의 특징들을 도출할 수 있었다. 그리고 혁신 지속의 영향요인 식별을 위해 추가적으로 로짓분석을 수행한 결과, 급진적 혹은 점진적 제품혁신이 다음 시기에서 혁신이 지속되게 하는 가장 영향력 높은 요인인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 구축한 패널자료는 원시자료의 한계로 인해 표본 선택 편의가 존재하기 때문에, 분석 결과의 지나친 일반화는 경계해야 한다. 그럼에도 불구하고 한국 기업을 대상으로 기술혁신 지속 현상을 종합적으로 분석한 초기연구로서 의의가 있으며, 후속 연구의 시발점이 될 것으로 기대된다. 향후 공식적인 패널자료의 구축 및 개선된 방법론 등을 통해, 혁신 지속 관련 발전된 연구 결과가 도출되기를 기대한다.

With the growing importance of technology innovation as a key factor for firms' competitive advantage, 'innovation persistence' became also an important research subject. 'Innovation Persistence' is a concept that indicates whether or not firms' innovation activity or performance continues. However, the data used for innovation studies are carried out as cross-sectional surveys in most countries. For this reason, studies dealing with longitudinal aspect of innovation persistence are rare. In particular, there is almost no research on innovation persistence using Korean innovation survey data. This study reviews the concepts and characteristics of innovation persistence based on extant literature, and perform an empirical analysis on the status and features of Korean firms' technology innovation persistence. Based on the data of the Korean Innovation Survey (KIS) conducted every other year from 2012 to 2018, panel data on 3,379 firms which observed multiple times are constructed. As a result, only part of the firms with persistent innovation were observed (for innovation performance 10~12%, for innovation activity 15~17%), and it was found that the persistence of non-innovation was remarkable(about 52~57%). And it was confirmed that the persistence of innovation activities is stronger than that of innovation performance. Besides, some features by sub-types of innovation appeared. Product innovation showed higher persistence than process innovation, and internal R&D also showed higher persistence than joint/external R&D. As a result of additional logit analysis to identify factors, it was found that radical or gradual product innovation is the most influential factor in persisting innovation in the next period. Since the sample selection bias due to a limitations of raw data might exist in the panel data constructed in this study, it should be noted that faulty generalization of the results are not allowed. Nevertheless, this is the first study to examine the technology innovation persistence targeting Korean firms and is expected to be a starting point for follow-up studies. It is anticipated that advanced research results will be drawn through the establishment of official panel data and improved methodologies.

National and social issues are becoming increasingly common, but traditional policy-making methods are no longer effective. Therefore, evidence-based policy making is emerging as an alternative paradigm. Digital twin technology is one of the digital support tools for the new data-driven policy-making process. This study presents ongoing government experiments in the world where digital twin technology is applied to policy making and describes our experience in developing digital twin platforms in Sejong-the de facto administrative capital of South Korea.

Nowadays data-based decision making is emerging as the center of the business environment paradigm, but many companies do not have data-driven decision-making systems. It has also been studied that using an expert's intuition in decision making can be more efficient in terms of speed and cost, compared to analytical decision making. The goal of this study is to analyze customer churn factors using a group of experts within a financial company from the viewpoint of decision-making efficiency. We applied a debit card 'A', product of the National Credit Union Federation of Korea. The churn factors of all the financial expert groups were examined. Also. the difference in each group (management support, card recruitment, customer service group) was analyzed. We expect that this study will be helpful in the practical aspects of managers whose environments is lack data-oriented infrastructure and culture.

본 연구는 주소를 둘러싼 국내외 환경변화 속에서 관계 법령 개정 및 시범사업 등에 의해 본격적으로 도입이 이루어지고 있는 사물주소에 대한 언론보도를 분석하였다. 네이버 뉴스 플랫폼에서 2018년 4월부터 2020년 9월까지 기간동안 '사물주소'라고 검색하여 수집된 언론보도기사의 제목과 원문을 수집하여 토픽 모델링 및 네트워크 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과, 보도주제는 4가지 유형으로 '사물주소체계 추진', '사물주소 부여대상 실증', '도로명주소 사용 개선', '주소 활성화를 위한 교육·홍보'로 나타났으며, 해당 기간동안 '사물주소 부여 실증' 주제가 주요 의제였음을 확인하였다. 분석 결과를 행정안전부의 「제3차 주소정책 기본계획(2018-2022)」과 비교하여 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다.

This study analyzed media reports on the Address of Things, which are being introduced through the amendment of related law and pilot projects. The titles and its texts in the media's reports were collected by searching for 'Address of Things' on the Naver News Platform. Then, we analyzed the corpus using by topic modeling and network analysis. As a result, there were four topics: 'Promotion of the address of things system', Proof of assigning Address of Things', 'Improvement of usage of the Roadname Address Systems', and 'Education and public relation for the address activation'. It was confirmed that the topic 'Proof of assigning Address of Things' was the main agenda. We presented some implication by comparing the results with the 「3rd Basic Plan for Address Policy (2018-2022)」 of the Ministry of Public Administration and Security.

Technostress management is increasingly getting important as ICT advances and infiltrates every job and task. Especially with the advent of COVID-19, workers had to switch to teleworking utilizing ICT extensively. In this study, we developed a research model explaining antecedents and their impacts on technostress in telecommuting context, especially under the COVID-19 situation. The result revealed that techno-complexity, techno-invasion, and techno-overload are the dominant factors that affect the negative psychological responses in the COVID-19 situation. Among them, we found that techno-overload maintain the most significant influence. It is due to the lack of instant feedback on workload allocations in telework and the lack of adjustment period with the sudden shift to telecommuting. In the case of techno-complexity, employees seem to experience difficulty acquiring new technical skills. Finally, the techno-invasion came out significant, signifying the infiltration of working space by home-related activities. The emotion-focused coping strategy had a moderating effect. In contrast, the problem-focused coping strategy had no significant effect, indicating that an appropriate emotional coping strategy is more important for workers undergoing extreme changes in the work environment. Subsequently, practical and theoretical implications, limitations, and future research directions are discussed.

본 연구는 청년 1인가구를 위한 식생활교육 프로그램을 개발하였다. 청년 1인가구의 식생활 요구도 조사를 위해 국민건강영양조사 7기(2016~2018년) 자료를 활용하여 1인가구와 다인가구의 식생활 행태를 비교분석을 하였고, 청년 1인가구의 식생활 행태를 분석하기 위해 서울에 거주하는 청년 1인가구(만19~39세) 350명을 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 실시하였다. 분석한 결과, 1인가구는 다인가구보다 아침 결식률과 외식빈도가 높았으며, 에너지 및 영양소 평균섭취량이 유의적으로 낮았다(p<0.05). 특히 청년 1인가구의 경우 가정에서의 조리 빈도가 낮을수록 아침 결식률이 높았고 외식과 배달음식 섭취빈도가 유의적으로 높았다(p<0.05). 이런 요구도 조사를 바탕으로 식생활교육 이론모델로 사회인지이론을 선정하였고, 청년 1인가구를 위한 식생활교육 프로그램을 DESIGN 6단계 절차를 적용하여 개발하였다. 1차시는 집밥의 건강향상 효과와 경제적 이익, 2차시 아침의 중요성과 생활 속 운동의 효과, 3차시 균형 잡힌 영양섭취의 중요성과 건강한 식단 작성의 원리, 4차시는 식품안전과 보관, 5차시는 소셜다이닝의 효과의 내용으로 구성하였다. 각 차시는 '건강한 집밥을 더 많이 만들어 먹기'라는 동기유발을 위한 이론강의와 행동수행력 향상을 위한 조리실습을 결합하여 구성되었다.

This study reports on the development of a dietary education program for Korean young adults in single-person households. The 7th National Health and Nutrition Survey (2016-2018) was used to compare and analyze the dietary behavior of single-person households and multi-person households, and an online survey was conducted on 350 young adults (age 19-39 years) living in Seoul. According to the analysis, single-person households had higher rates of breakfast and eating out than multi-person households, and significantly lower average intake of energy and nutrients (p<0.05). In particular, in the case of single-person households, the lower the frequency of cooking at home, the higher the rate of breakfast and the higher the frequency of eating out and delivery food (p<0.05). Based on the survey, a dietary education program for young adults single-person households was developed by applying the DESIGN six-step procedure and social cognitive theory as a conceptual model. The first session consisted of the health and economic benefits of home-cooked meals, the second session of the importance of the breakfast and the effect of exercise in life, the third session of the importance of balanced nutrition and the principles of a healthy diet, the fourth session of food safety and storage, and the fifth session of social dining. Each session was composed of a combination of theoretical lectures to motivate 'more making and eating healthy home-cooked meals' and cooking practice for improving behavioral performance.

A quality assurance of computed tomography(CT) have done seven items that were water attenuation coefficient, noise, homogeneity, spatial resolution, contrast resolution, slice thickness, artifact using by standard phantom. But there is no quality assurance items and methods for CT simulator at domestic institutions yet. Therefore the study aimed to access the CT dose index(CTDI), table tilting, image distortion, laser accuracy, table movement accuracy and CT seven items for CT simulator quality assurance. The CTDI at the center of the head phantom was 0.81 for 80 kVp, 1.55 for 100 kVp, 2.50 for 120 mm, 0.22 for 80 kVp at the center of the body phantom, 0.469 for 100 kVp, and 0.81 for 120 kVp. The table tilting was within the tolerance range of ±1.0° or less. Image distortion had 1 mm distortion in the left and right images based on the center, and the laser accuracy was measured within ±2 mm tolerance. The purpose of this study is to improve the quality assurance items suitable for the current situation in Korea in order to protect the normal tissues during the radiation treatment process and manage the CT simulator that is implemented to find the location of the tumor more clearly. In order to improve the accuracy of the CT simulator when looking at the results, the error range of each item should be small. It is hoped that the quality assurance items of the CT simulator will be improved by suggesting the quality assurance direction of the CT simulator in this study, and the results of radiation therapy will also improve.

수소는 동일한 공연비(AF ratio, Air-to-fuel ratio)에서 가솔린에 비해 점화에너지가 현격히 낮기 때문에, 희박한 혼합기 조건에서도 안정적으로 연소할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있어 연소를 기반으로하는 내연기관에도 적용이 가능하다. 그러나 일부 연소조건에서 역화(Back-fire) 혹은 조기 점화(Pre-ignition)와 같은 이상 연소가 발생하기 쉬운 문제를 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 엔진의 흡기(Intake gas mixture)를 구성하는 신기(Fresh air)와 수소 연료를 각각 냉각하여 공급함으로써, 역화를 최소화하여 최고 출력을 향상하는 연구를 진행하였다. 2.4 L급 전기점화(SI, Spark-ignition)엔진이 사용되었으며 수소는 포트분사 방식(PFI, Port Fuel Injection)으로 공급하였다. 신기의 온도는 터보차저가 장착된 상황에서 인터쿨러(Intercooler)를 이용하여 제어하였으며, 수소의 냉각은 칠러의 냉매와 열교환기를 통하여 직접 냉각 후 공급하였다. 그 결과 신기의 온도를 10~20 ℃가량 냉각시킬 경우 최고출력이 약 6.5~8.6 % 가량 향상되는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 수소를 -6 ℃까지 냉각하여 공급할 경우 마찬가지로 약 7.7 % 가량의 최고 출력을 향상할 수 있었다.

Since hydrogen has the lower minimum ignition energy than that of gasoline, hydrogen could be also appropriate for the IC engine systems. However, due to the low ignition energy, there might be a 'back-fire' and 'pre-ignition' problems with hydrogen SI(Spark-ignition) combustion. In this research, cooling effects of intake gas mixture on the improvement of the maximum power output were evaluated in a 2.4 L SI engine. There were two ways to cool intake gas mixtures. The first one was cooling intake fresh air by adjusting inter-cooler system after turbocharger. The other one was cooling hydrogen fuel before supplying by using heat ex-changer. Cooling hydrogen was performed under natural aspired condition. The result showed that cooling fresh air from 40 ℃ to 20~30 ℃ improved the maximum brake power up to 6.5~8.6 % and cooling hydrogen fuel as -6 ℃ enhanced the maximum brake power likewise.

As we enter the era of the 4th industrial revolution, information and communication technologies, including artificial intelligence and big data, are converging throughout society. Especially, as the importance of the social foundation of hyper-connection grows, the social influence of IoT, a network of connecting objects, people, and various entities, is also gradually expanding. In addition, as a pandemic, COVID-19, continues, interests in untact-oriented technology and service development are growing more than ever, and each company is trying to establish a core competency strategy to gain an edge in competition in the changing society. This study is a case study centered on Dawon DNS, a company that provides an IoT-based AI smart plug platform. Dawon DNS is broadening its services while developing products by applying advanced technologies, and this study is aiming to investigate the core competencies of the business evolution process. The obtained result of this study will provide implications for companies to become more competitive by suggesting the attitudes and strategies that startups should have during the transforming business environment.

Since the first confirmed case in January 2020, Coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) has brought many changes to our society, and Korea is no exception. Some changes are direct and immediate such as restrictions on overseas travel and social distancing, but the others are indirect and slowly adapted such as lifestyle changes impacting industries and businesses. IT service sector is tremendously influenced by COVID-19. IT service is used extensively in response to COVID-19 taking advantage of its non-face-to-face characteristics. In that sense, the industry is positively affected and in some sense invigorated, giving birth to new kind of services. This special issue focuses on introducing how the IT services are affected, what kind of transformations are undergoing, and how these are expedited after COVID-19. This special issue expands and extends the case research section by collecting new IT service case studies concerning these topics. After competitive review process, 11 studies are selected for this special issue which deals with four different but closely related aspects: (1) evolutions of private IT services, (2) transformations in public IT services, (3) impacts in the hospitality and tourism industry, and (4) changes of people's behavior along with COVID-19. The first set reports on the evolution of private IT services that have created terms such as foodtech and edutech as we enter a rapid non-face-to-face situation. The second set consists of studies dealing with the evolution of public IT services. Evolution and rapid response to non-face-to-face appear to be no exception in the public sector. The third includes studies of hospitality and tourism which is most strongly affected by COVID-19. The last set deals with the behavioral changes of users such as technostress in telecommuting. Lessons learned through best practices and key problems identified in these studies may help us to actively respond to the coming waves of changes incurred by COVID-19 in our society as well as in the IT service industry.

This study was aimed to investigate occurrence and the antimicrobial resistance of Escherichia coli isolates obtained from the feces of wild birds in Daegu. In total, 98 E. coli isolates (17.9%) were obtained from 547 fecal samples of wild birds. The E. coli carried by the birds showed a relatively high rate of antimicrobial resistance to tetracycline (27.6%) and ampicillin (21.4%). Drug resistance of the isolates to the others (penicillins, cephems, carbapenems, aminoglycosides, quinolones, sulfonamides and phenicols) resulted in the rates less than 20%, and all isolates were susceptible to imipenem, ciprofloxacin, cefotetan, and amikacin. Approximately, 45% E. coli among the isolates were resistant to one or more drugs tested. The higher rate of tetracycline resistance led us to determine the prevalence of the tet genes (tetA, tetB, tetC, tetD and tetE) in the tetracycline-resistant E. coli isolates by using PCR. All isolates of the tetracycline-resistant E. coli contained at least one or more of these tet genes examined. The most prevalent one was tetA (59.3%), and followed by tetB (7.4%) when tested with the selected 5 tet genes. Except tetA and tetB, however, the remaining tet genes (tetC, tetD, and tetE) tested were not found in this study. Nine isolates among the tetracycline-resistant E. coli contained the two (tetA and tetB) determinants of tetracycline resistance, simultaneously.

택란 잎 A+M 및 MeOH 추출물의 총 플라보노이드 함량은 각각 55.7±2.04 및 119.6±7.78 mg/g으로 택란 잎 MeOH 추출물의 총 플라보노이드 함량이 높았고 초석잠 잎 추출물들보다 높았다. 4종 추출물들과 비교했을 때 택란 A+M 추출물은 다른 추출물과 비교했을 때 DPPH 소거능이 우수하였다. ABTS 라디칼 소거활성에서도 초석잠 및 택란 잎 MeOH 추출물은 0.5 mg/ml 농도에서 각각 85 및 91%의 라디칼 소거능을 나타내었으며 합성항산화제인 BHT와 L-ascorbic acid와 유사한 소거활성을 나타내었다. 이러한 항산화 활성은 앞서 택란 잎 MeOH 추출물의 높은 총 플라보노이드 함량과 연관성이 있는 것으로 여겨진다. 초석잠 및 택란 잎 A+M 및 MeOH 추출물을 0.05 및 0.025 mg/ml의 농도로 인체 섬유육종세포(HT-1080)에 처리하여 세포 내 활성산소종을 측정한 결과 두 추출물들 모두 측정시간 120분이 지남에 따라 높은 세포 내 활성산소종 생성 억제효과를 나타내었다. 초석잠 잎의 경우 A+M 추출물에 의한 활성산소종 억제효과가 높았고 반면 택란 잎 MeOH 추출물은 0.05 mg/ml 농도에서 대조군과 비교하여 높은 억제효과를 나타내었다. 인체 암세포들(AGS, HT-29 및 HT-10180)에 대한 세포독성 효과를 측정한 결과 4종 추출물들 중 택란 잎 A+M 추출물에 의한 세포독성 효과가 가장 높았다. 본 연구 결과들로부터 라디칼 소거 활성에서 택란 잎 MeOH 추출물에 의한 항산화 효과가 높았으며 암세포에 대한 세포독성 효과는 택란 잎 A+M 추출물에서 가장 높은 활성을 확인하였다. 따라서 이는 택란 잎 A+M 및 MeOH 추출물들에 함유된 높은 함량의 총 플라보노이드와도 연관성이 있음을 나타낸다.

In this study, the antioxidant and cytotoxic effects and the flavonoid contents of leaf extracts from Stachys sieboldii Miq. and Lycopus lucidus Turcz. were compared. The flavonoid contents of the acetone + methylene chloride (A+M) and methanol (MeOH) extracts of L. lucidus Turcz. leaves were 55.7 and 233.2 mg/g, respectively. In a DPPH assay, A+M and MeOH extracts from L. lucidus Turcz leaves had a greater scavenging effect than those of S. sieboldii Miq. leaves (p<0.05). In an ABTS assay, MeOH extracts from S. sieboldii Miq. and L. lucidus Turcz (0.5 mg/ml concentration) leaves had scavenging effects of 85% and 91%, respectively (p<0.05), suggesting that both of the MeOH extracts had greater scavenging effects than both A+M extracts. In a 120 min ROS production assay, all tested extracts decreased the cellular ROS production induced by H₂O₂ compared to that produced by exposure to the extract-free control. The MeOH extract from L. lucidus Turcz leaves had a greater inhibitory effect on cellular ROS production (p<0.05). Treatment with A+M and MeOH extracts from both S. sieboldii Miq. and L. lucidus Turcz. leaves showed a dose-dependent increased cytotoxicity against the growth of AGS, HT-29 cancer cells, and HT-1080 (p<0.05). Both A+M extracts had a greater inhibitory effect on the growth of all cancer cells than both MeOH extracts. These results suggest that the MeOH extract of L. lucidus Turcz. leaves is effective in scavenging free radicals and inhibiting cellular oxidation, while the A+M extract inhibits proliferation of three types of cancer cell.

본 연구에서는 미국, 일본, 유럽 등 해외의 지하수 관리 사례를 조사하여 향후 우리나라 지하수 관리 개선방향을 제시하였다. 미국에서는 지하수자원 프로그램(GWRP)이 국지적-권역별로 운영된다. 일본에서는 적정지하수 이용을 관리하기 위해 소규모, 중규모 및 대규모 유역에 따라 서로 다른 지하수자원 관리프로그램이 수행되었다. 유럽에서는 지하수가 지표수와 동일하게 평가되며, 유역 단위로 지표수와 지하수를 통합 관리하고 있다. 우리나라에서는 국가차원에서 지하수 개발가능량을 하향식으로 지정하고 관리하지만 미국과 일본에서는 소규모 지역 단위에서 대규모 유역까지 범위를 확장하며 관리하는 차이가 있다. 또한 지하수 자원의 지속 가능성을 평가하려면 지속적인 지하수 관측과 조사, 데이터 분석, 지하수 개발 우선순위 결정 등을 포함하는 역동적 지하수 활용 프로그램을 운영해야 한다.

This study aims to suggest an improved groundwater management plan for future policy decisions in Korea by examining representative groundwater management cases abroad. In the United States, the Ground Water Resources Program is operated both locally and regionally. In order to manage appropriate levels of groundwater in Japan, groundwater resource management programs are conducted according to small, medium, and large watersheds. In Europe, the watershed unit manages groundwater and surface water by way of an integrated approach. In Korea, groundwater development at the national level is designated and managed in a top-down manner, whereas in the United States and Japan, groundwater is managed from small-scale regional units to large-scale watersheds. In order to evaluate the sustainability of groundwater resources, groundwater must be evaluated through a dynamic process including continuous monitoring, groundwater flow analysis, and management priorities.

This study applies the Delphi method to design services with convergence characteristics in the financial sector. In designing a service robot for practical deployment that can support and replace bank teller, the opinions and judgments of various expert groups were extracted and a consensus process was made through feedback. A total of six dimensions and thirty service elements were derived over three rounds. Coefficient of Variation and content validity were used to verify the suitability and reliability of the selected service elements. As a result, the essential service element of robots was interaction with customers, followed by basic and professional financial services. Based on these service factors, we proposed two types of service models. support mode to assist employees during business hours and alternative mode on behalf of employees outside business hours. It is hoped that this study will use the Delphi technique in the design of IT convergence services.
