This study describes the characterization of a new angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptide from a Korean traditional rice wine. After purification of the ACE inhibitor peptides with ultrafiltration, Sephadex G-25 column chromatography, and successively $C_{18}$ and SCX solid-phase extraction, reverse-phase HPLC, and size exculsion chromatography, two types of the purified ACE inhibitors with $IC_{50}$ values of 0.34 mg/ml and 1.23 mg/ml were finally obtained. The two purified ACE inhibitors (F-1 and F-2) were found to have two kinds of novel oligopeptides, showing very little similarity to other ACE inhibitory peptide sequences. The amino acid sequences of the two purified oligopeptides were found to be Gln-Phe-Tyr-Ala-Val (F-1) and Ala-Gly-Pro-Val-Leu-Leu (F-2), and their molecular masses were estimated to be 468.7 Da (F-1) and 357.7 Da (F-2), respectively. They all showed a clear antihypertensive effect on spontaneously hypertensive rats at a dosage of 500 mg/kg.

TiC(001) 면위에 Mg 금속을 단원자층으로 증착시킨 후 산화 및 열처리 과정을 거쳐서 MgO 초박막을 성장시키고, 성장된 MgO 막의 전자상태 및 표면포논을 UPS, XPS 및 HREELS를 사용하여 측정하였다. 전도성 기판위에 epitaxial 산화물막을 성장시킨 후 성장된 막의 전자구조 및 표면포논을 측정함으로써 벌크에서 분리된 2차원적 특성을 갖는 '표면 모델'의 물성을 연구하고자 하였는데, 이러한 '표면모델'은 잘 배열된 원자구조를 얻을 수 있고 두께가 충분히 얇아서 전하축적을 피할 수 있기 때문이다. 기판으로는 MgO와 같은 암염형 결정구조를 갖고 있고, 격자상수 차이가 2.6% 로서 매우 작으며, 비저항이 매우 낮은 전이 금속 탄화물 중의 하나인 TiC(001) 면을 사용하였다. TiC(001)면에 증착된 MgO층의 UPS He-l 스펙트럼을 측정한 결과 O2p및 XPS스펙트럼은 열처리를 전후로 하여 변하지 않았으며, 이로부터 상온에서 산소의 확산만으로 MgO 상이 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. MgO초박막의 표면 포논을 HREELS를 사용하여 검출하였다. 거시적 포논중에서 F-K 파 및 Rayleigh 모드가 관찰되었는데, F-k파는 MgO막의 2차원성으로 인하여 벌크의 경우보다 높은 진동 에너지를 갖고 있었고 Rayleigh모드는 벌크 MgO와 유사한 분산관계를 보였다. 미시적 포논중에서 Wallis(S/sub 2/)모드가 측정되었는데, 그 진동에너지는 벌크에서와 같고 off-specular방향에서도 소멸되지 않았다.

The effects of the iron ions on the light-induced mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$ in Lentinus edodes was studied. This enzyme activity was stimulated by each of the ferric, ferrous and magnesium ion. Especially, the activity of the enzyme by 5.0 mM ferric ion increased up to 107% in comparision with control group(100%). In the presence of magnesium ion, each of ferric and ferrous ion increased the activity of the enzyme, particulary, coexistence of 0.1 mM magnesium and 5.0 mM ferric ion increased the activity up to 270% with magnesium ion dependence. The activity of the enzyme was stimulated up to 268% by 5.0 mM ferric ion in the presence of 0.1 mM magnesium and 0.1 mM ferrous ion. Therefore, the coexistence of ferrous ion did not affect the activity. From the above, we propose that light-induced mitochondrial $F_1-ATPase$ in Lentinus edodes is a $Mg^{2+}{\cdot}Fe^{3+}{\;}F_1-ATPase.$ The optimal pH and temperature for the enzyme were 7.5 and $66^{\circ}C$ respectively.

A compound has been isolated from the methanol extract of Styrax japonica bark using conventional chromatographic methods including silica gel chromatography, TLC and HPLC. The molecular formula of Styraxlignolide F analyzed by spectrometric analyses using FAB-MS, NMR was found to be $C_{27}H_{34}O_{11}Na$. The cytotoxicity of the styralignolide F was showed 15.2% in $1.0mg/m{\ell}$ on human kidney cell (HEK 293). As anticancer activity of $CH_2Cl_2$ fraction, over 60% of AGS and MCF-7 cells were inhibited in concentration of $1.0mg/m{\ell}$. In the results of anticancer test using quantification of Bcl-2, $CH_2Cl_2$ fraction showed lower Bcl-2 and p53 expression than those of styraxlignolide F and other fractions. In apoptosis of human lung carcunoma cancer cell (A549), $CH_2Cl_2$ fraction showed the highest inhibition rate (46.9%) and styralignolide F was the next (43.5%). The $CH_2Cl_2$ fraction showed higher anti-cancer activities than isolated substance (styraxlignolide F), probably due to the crude extract showing synergic effects by other components.

Three-dimensional thermoluminescence(TL) spectra of LiF: Mg, Cu, Na, Si TL material based on temperature, wavelength and intensity were measured and analyzed. The glow curves were obtained by integration of luminescence intensity for wavelength at each temperature, and various trapping parameters related to the trap formation were determined by analyzing these curves. Computerized glow curve deconvolution(CGCD) method which based on general order kinetics(GOK) model were used for the glow curve analysis. The glow curves of LiF:Mg, Cu, Na, Si TL material were deconvoluted to six isolated glow curves which have peak temperature at 333 K, 374 K, 426 K, 466 K, 483 K and 516 K, respectively. The 466 K main glow peak had an activation energy of 2.06 eV and a kinetic order of 1.05. This TL material was also found to have three recombination centers, 1.80 eV, 2.88 eV and 3.27 eV by TL spectra analysis based on Franck-Condon model. It showed that 2.88 eV is the dominant center, followed by 3.27 eV level, and 1.80 eV center is ascertained as emission center of this material even though its very weak emission intensity.

Two types of synthetic zeolites, commercially used (Z-WK) and synthesized by coal fly ash (Z-C1), and raw coal fly ash(F-C1) were examined for its kinetics and adsorption capacities of cobalt. Experimental data are fitted with kinetic models, Lagergen $1^{st}$ and $2^{nd}$ order models, and four types of adsorption isotherm models, Langmuir, Freundlich, Redlich-Peterson, and Koble-Corrigan. Synthesized zeolite (Z-C1) which had 1.51 of Si/Al ratio was synthesized by raw coal fly ash from a thermal power plant. Adsorption capacities with three types of adsorbents, Z-WK, Z-C1, and F-C1, were in the order of Z-C1 (94.15 mg/g) > F-C1 (92.94 mg/g) > Z-WK (88.56mg/g). The adsorption kinetics of Z-WK and Z-C1 with cobalt could be accurately described by a pseudo-second-order rate equation. The adsorption isotherms of Z-WK and Z-C1 with cobalt were well fitted by the Langmuir and Redlich-Peterson equation. Z-C1 will be used to remove cobalt in water as a more efficient absorbent.

An omni-directional, graded-index and textured ZnO nanorods with $MgF_2$ anti-reflective(AR) coating films for the electro optical tracking system(EOTS) by e-beam evaporation method are presented. we achieved that the graded index structure can minimize image tracking interference of EOTS which is comparable to a general AR coating films. Optimized ZnO nanorods with $MgF_2$ AR coating films lead to decreasing Fresnel reflection by gradient refractive index. According to our experiment results, ZnO nanorods with $MgF_2$ AR coating films can be used for various electro optical system to improve the optical performance.

$MgF_2$ is a current material for the optical applications in the UV and deep UV range. Process variables for manufacturing the $MgF_2$ thin film were established in order to clarify optimum conditions for growth of the thin film depending upon process conditions, and then by changing a number of vapor deposition conditions and substrate temperature, Annealing conditions variously, structural and Optical characteristics were measured. Thereby, optimum process variables were derived. Nevertheless, modern applications still require improvement of the optical and structural quality of the deposited layers. In the present work, the composition and microstructure of $MgF_2$ single layers grown on slide glass substrate by Electro beam Evaporator(KV-660) processes, were analyzed and compared. The surface Substrate temperature having an effect on the quality of the thin film was changed from 200[$^{\circ}C$] to 350[$^{\circ}C$] at intervals of 50[$^{\circ}C$]. and annealing temperature an effect on the thin film was changed from 200[$^{\circ}C$] to 400[$^{\circ}C$] at intervals of 50[$^{\circ}C$]. Physical properties of the thin film were investigated at various fabrication conditions substrate temperature, annealing and temperature, annealing time by XRD, FE-SEM.
