식물성(植物性) 유기물질(有機物質)의 부숙과정중(腐熟過程中) 단당류(單糖類)의 함량(含量) 변화(變化)

The amounts of monosaccharides in acid hydrolysates of decomposing plant residues under laboratory conditions were determined. Straw of cereal rice and barley, wild grass cutting, and litters of deciduous and coniferous forest trees were treated to decompose for 90 days. Samples for the analysis of mono-saccharides were taken at 3 different periods of incubation. 1. Fractions of monosaccahrides in plant residues steadily decreased with the time of decomposition. In some samples there appeared an intermediate stages where the fractions reached the highest level. 2. Decomposition of barley straw occured at a faster rate than that of rice straw, and so did the decomposition of deciduous litter than that of coniferous litter. 3. Cereal crop residues of rice and barley were richer in monosaccharides than residues of wild grass cutting and forest litters. 4. Distiction between monosaccharides of plant origin and those of microbial origin was not possible to make in this study. 5. Glucose was the predominent monosaccharide and fucose was the monosaccharide contained in the smallest amount. No measurable ribose was detected from any sample. 6. The relative proportion of galactose in creased with the time of incubation. 7. In general, the proportion of fucose decreased with time and so did that of rhamnose, rhamnose of rice straw residue being the exception. 8. The orders of abundance of monosaccharides after decomposition of 90 days were as the following: in rice straw; glucose > xylose > arabinose > galactose > rhamnose > mannose > fucose, in barley straw; glucose > xylose > arabinose > galactose> mannose > rhamnose > fucose, in wild grass cutting; glucose > xylose > galactose arabinose> rhamnose mannose > fucose, in deciduous litter; glucose > arabinose > xylose galactose > mannose > rhamnose = fucose, and in coniferous litter; glucose > xylose > galactose > arabinose mannose > rhamnose > fucose.

볏짚, 보리짚, 산야초(山野草) 그리고 활엽수(闊葉樹)와 침엽수(針葉樹)의 낙엽(落葉)을 채취(採取)하여 실험실(實驗室) 조건하(條件下)에서 90일간(日間) 부숙(腐熟)시키면서 경시적(經時的)으로 재료(材料)를 취(取)하여 산가수분해(酸加水分解)한 후(後) 단당류(單糖類)의 함량(含量)을 분석(分析)한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같다. 1. 부숙기간(腐熟其間)이 경과(經過)함에 따라 유기물중(有機物中) 단당류(單糖類)의 함량(含量)이 감소(減少)하였다. 중간단계(中間段階)(45일(日))에서는 일시적인 함량(含量)이 증가(增加)가 나타났다. 2. 보리짚이 볏짚보다 빠른 속도(速度) 부숙(腐熟)하였는데 활엽수낙엽(闊葉樹落葉)이 침엽수낙엽((針葉樹落葉)보다 빨리 부숙(腐熟)되었다. 3. 단당류(單糖類)의 함량(含量)은 산야초(山野草)나 산림낙엽(山林落葉)보다 볏짚 및 보리짚에 더 많았다. 4. 식물성(植物性) 단당류(單糖類)와 미생물성(微生物性) 단당류(單糖類)의 정량적(定量的) 구별(區別)은 불가능(不可能)하였다. 5. 단당류중(單糖類中) Glucose가 가장 많았으며 가장 적게 함유(含有)된 당(糖)은 Fucose이었다. Ribose는 검출되지 않았다. 6. 부숙기간(腐熟期間)이 경과(經過)함에 따라 Glactose의 상대적(相對的) 함량(含量)도 증가(增加)하였다. 7. 부숙기간(腐熟期間)이 증가(增加)함에 따라 Fucose의 상대적(相對的) 함량(含量)이 감소(減少)하였으며, Rhamnose도 이와같은 경향이었다. 다만, 볏짚의 경우 Rhamnose의 상대적(相對的) 함량(含量)은 오히려 증가(增加)하였다. 8. 부숙(腐熟) 90일경 각(各) 시료(試料)가 함유(含有)하고 있는 단당류(單糖類)의 양(量)은 다음과 같은 순서이었다. 볏짚 : Glucose > Xylose > Arabinose > Galactose > Rhamnose > Mannose > Fucose 보리짚 : Glucose > Xylose > Arabinose > Galactose> Mannose > Rhamnose > Fucose 산야초 : Glucose > Xylose > Galactose Arabinose > Rhamnose Mannose > Fucose 활엽수낙엽 : Glucose > Arabinose> Xylose Galactose > Mannose > Rhamnose = Fucose 침엽수낙엽 : Glucose > Xylose > Galactose > Arabinose Mannose > Rhamnose > Fucose.
