It was confirmed that a white porcelain figurine in underglaze iron was damaged after exhibition. This study analyzes the current state of salt damage on the artifact and identifies the factors contributing to its deterioration by examining the material characteristics of the artifact and exhibition environment. The analysis will thus assist in preparing a conservation scheme for artifacts. The crystallized carbonate on the surface of the white porcelain figurine is a water-soluble alkali salt with high hygroscopicity and high solubility in water. This solubility increases as the temperature increases. The figurine was low-fired at approximately 1000℃. A lead glaze was applied, and thin cracks were formed on the glazed surface, indicating poor surface properties. Our analysis suggested that the showcase used in the exhibition likely created a moist environment resulting from condensation, as it was exposed to high temperature and relative humidity, particularly in comparison to the exhibition room where the temperature was regulated using an air conditioner. In addition, the artifacts in the showcase were exposed to sudden changes in temperature and relative humidity as the air conditioner was repeatedly turned on and off. Therefore, it can be deduced that the soluble salt remaining on the white porcelain figurine moved toward the surface of the relatively weak glaze as a result of the temperature, and the crystallized salt exacerbated surface damage as the moisture evaporated in a dry environment.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effects and characteristics of protamine extracted from spermary of tuna. The result of amino acids analysis showed that the contents of arginine were 46%. It was 10% lower when compared to standard protamine (SP: Asama kasei LTD, Japan). Also, there were significant difference in the contents of proline adn glycine. The average molecular weights of main protein in TP were 13,400 Da, whereas those in SP were 11,300 Da and 2,600 Da. To increase antimicrobial activities of TP, pepsin or trypsin was treated at $37^{\circ}C$. After TP was hydrolyzed with pepsin (pepsin hydrolyzed protamine: PHP) for 4hrs, the average molecular weights of the main protein were 11,300 Da and 3,900 Da, and the antimicrobial activities were significantly increased compared to TP. After TP was hydrolyzed with trypsin (trypsin hydrolyzed protamine: THP) for more than 10 min, the average molecular weights of the main protein were below 2,500 Da. PHP had higher antimicrobial effects on some gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus plantarum) than SP. However, THP had no antimicrobial activities. When TP was hydrolyzed with pepsin (PHP), its antimicrobial activities increased in the same level with those of SP, and this increase might be resulted rather from the changes of molecular weights of the main protein than from the contents of arginine in protamine.

Previously, the methanolic extracts of thirty Korean medicinal plant seeds were screened for tyrosinase inhibitors using a rapid and simple TLC method, which was superior to a conventional spectrophotometrical in vitro assay. As a result, the methanolic extracts of Thuja orientalis seeds was found to have strong tyrosinase inhibitory activity. To isolate active tyrosinase inhibitors, the seeds were defatted with n-hexane under reflux, and then extracted twice with methanol under reflux at 90$^{\circ}C$. The methanolic extract was evaporated to a small volumn in vacuo, and then successively fractionated with ether, ethyl acetate and n-butanol. The ether extract showing significant tyrosinase inhibitory activity was solubilized with 5% NaHCO$_3$and then acidified with 6N HCI. The ether souble acidic fraction was successively ohromatographed on silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 and preparative TLC. Among four compounds isolated, two of them showed stronger tyrosinase inhibitory activity, comparable to that of L-ascorbic acid (IC$\sub$50/=28$\mu\textrm{g}$/$m\ell$). These results suggest that Thuja orientalis seeds may be useful as potential sources of antibrowning agents in fruits and vegetables, and anti-melanoma agents in cosmetics and phamaceuticals.

신라말부터 조선조에 이르는 도자기 변천사를 개관한 총론과 고려청자, 조선분청사기, 조선백자에 대한 각론으로 구성된 이 책은 전체적으로 한편의 논문형식을 띠고 있지만 그 세목세목은 30여년 발표해온 그의 논문을 토대로 하고 있는데 철저하게 '실물'에 기초한 과학적 규명을 원칙으로 하고 있다.

온달굴은 천연기념물 제261호로 1979년 6월 18일에 지정받은 문화재 동굴이다. 원래 남굴로 불리운 이 동굴은 충청북도 단양군 영춘면 하리의 남한강이 서남류하여 굽이치는 남안의 남산 기슭에 위치한다. 이 남산은 서남쪽에 하리와 백자리에 경계를 이루고 있으며 남한강변에 우뚝솟은 해발 427m 성산의 기슭에 해당하는 구릉봉으로 석회암 지대의 산지지형인 급경사인 산세를 이루고 있다.(중략)
