This study examined emission characteristics of far-infrared ray, formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds and deodorization rate of particleboard prepared at different target board densities and resin content levels, using the xylem part of Broussonetia Kazinoki Sieb. The deodorization rate increased, as the target density of board and resin content increased. Emission rates of the far-infrared ray and total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs) were 0.892~0.899, and $0.074mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ for particleboard prepared with the resin content of 13% and target density of $0.6g/cm^3$ while the deodorization rate was 80~90% for the same particleboard. The formaldehyde emission factor ranged from $0.004mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ to $0.006mg/m^2{\cdot}h$ for all particleboard fabricated at different resin content and target densities. These results indicate that particleboard prepared from the xylem part of Broussonetia Kazinoki Sieb have a potential as a building construction material.

Nondestructive evaluation (NDE) technique method using a resonance frequency mode was carried out for woodceramics made by different carbonizing temperature (600, 800, 1000, $1200^{\circ}C$) for Broussonetia kazinoki Sieb. Dynamic modulus of elasticity increased with increasing carbonizing temperature. There was a close relationship of dynamic modulus of elasticity and static bending modulus of elasticity to MOR. Therefore, the dynamic modulus of elasticity using resonance frequency mode is useful as a nondestructive evaluation method for predicting the MOR of woodceramics made by different carbonizing temperature for B. kazinoki Sieb.

This study is about the paper of Mulberry(桑紙). The paper which was usually applied to the ancient bookpaper and documents. But there is a rare record about it today. So the paper was made from the Mulberry(뽕나무) bast fiber using traditional handcraft method. and Paper Mulberry(닥나무) by traditional method. And tested by physical and optical methods in comparisons with Paper Mulberry(닥나무). The ratio of length/width of Mulberry fiber was 475, and its lignin content was lower than the Paper Mulberry. The Mulberry paper had similar forming properties and physical strength to the Paper Mulberry fiber. Therefore, the Mulberry fiber seem to be a good paper fiber for traditional paper. For the aging test, in the thermal acceleration treatment for 72 hours and 144 hours at the temperature of $105^{\circ}C$ incubator, the Mulberry paper was more deteriorative than the Paper Mulberry. In the ultraviolet acceleration treatment for 100 hours and 200 hours the Mulberry paper was less interior to the Paper Mullberry, in the increase of treatment time. And the Mulberry paper was approved to be a good traditional paper in appearance. Furthumore, in considing the sample of bred Mulberry species grown today, its paper is thought to be superio to the paper of Paper Mulberry in symptom of senility in natural ultraviolet light.

This research was conducted to develop a seed propagation protocol for the use of Broussonetia kazinoki Siebold ex Siebold & Zucc, which native to East Asia. Light and temperature conditions, GA₃ treatment, and low-temperature stratification were performed to evaluate the germination characteristics. The germination percentage at 4, 15/6, 20/10 and 25/15℃ was 0, 42. 5, 44. 4 and 91.7%, respectively. Thus, the optimal germination temperature of the B. kazinoki seeds was 25/15℃. Although germination was delayed by relatively low temperature conditions, GA3 treatment allowed for increased germination rates even under the low temperature conditions. Cold stratification reduced time to germination. Relatively low germination percentages at 20/10℃ and 15/6℃ indicated that the seeds had been under the state of conditional dormancy. Through this study, B. kazinoki seeds have conditional dormancy because they can be germinated through GA₃ treatment even under relatively low temperature conditions and it is judged that it will support the commercial propagation practice in the future.

우리나라의 한지는 세계에서 가장 우수한 종이요 천년 세월을 견뎌내는 것은 물론 썩지도 않는다. 2~7세기 사이에 전래된 것으로 추측되는 우리의 한지는 닥나무를 재료로 하고 있는데 창문용으로 사용되는 창호지는 바람과 빛을 통과시키고 습도까지 조절하는 기능까지 갖추고 있어 '살아있는 종이'라고도 한다.

This study was carried out to investigate the variation of fiber tissues of some paper mulberies (Broussnetia kazinoki Sieb.). Every twig was selected for variation from 1 year old to 4 years old of the paper mulberies growing in Woensung, Bounghwa, Euiryung and Wanju in Korea. The results are summarized as follows: 1. The length and the width of fiber tissue increase to old twigs. 2. In primary fiber tissue the variation of length increases considerably slowly, but on the contrary that of width increases very rapidly. 3. In the secondary fiber tissue the variation of length increases comparatively rapidly but that of width does not. 4. In order to investigate the fact shown from the contrary results on the fiber length and width between primary and secondary fibers, the authors calculated the correlation, coefficient and the results show comparatively higher possitive correlation coefficient.

The anticancer effect of the bark of Broussonetia kazinoki root extracts (hexane. chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol, aqueous) were studied. The cytotoxicity by MTT assay and inhibitory effect on the growth of sarcoma 180 cells were tested in vitro. The reduction rate of the tumor formation and spleen/body weight rate on BALB/c mouse were tested in vivo. From the tests, each fraction showed the cytotoxic effect against the sarcoma 180 cells. In addition, as the concentration of the fractions increased, cytotoxic effect tendency increased as well. The cytotoxic rate of the hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol and aqueous fractions showed by 58.7%, 40.1%, 75.7%, 52.6% and 62.7% respectively after testing by MTT assay system. And sarcoma 180 cells were incubated for 6 days at 37$^{\circ}C$ with various concentrations of each fraction. As the incubation days go on, the number of cells increased, while the inhibition rate on the growth of sarcoma 180 cells were decreased. Especially the ethylacetate fraction at the concentration of 1.0 mg/ml strongly inhibited the growth of sarcoma 180 cells by 74% compared with the control for a day 37$^{\circ}C$ The hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol and aqueous fractions inhibited on the growth of sarcoma 180 cells by 31%, 19%, 60%, 30% and 42% respectively, when sarcoma 180 cells has been incubated for 6 days at 37$^{\circ}C$. The each fraction exhibited the antitumor effect in vivo. The ethylacetate fraction reduced the tumor formation by 41% compared with the control, when sarcoma 180 cells were injected subcutaneously into the left groin of BALB/c mice. Also spleen/body weight rate of ethylacetate fraction was increased by 2.10% compared with the control (1.08%). And it is considered that there would be no toxic effect caused by each fraction of body weight and organ as there was on more changes in mouse' weight compared with the control.
