This study was carried out to discriminate potato cultivars and breeding lines by specific molecular markers using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. The genotypes of potatoes used for analysis were eight cultivars and five breeding lines. Some of those show much phenotypic resemblances among them because 'Jopung', 'Daekwan70', 'Gawon', and 'Daekwan72' have immediate parental relationship with 'Superior', 'Irish Cobbler', 'Namsuh', and 'Atlantic', respectively. So, there are many difficulties to distinguish the varieties by the morphological characteristics. Three URP primers, URP2, URP4, and URP8 were selected for promising primers to discriminate potato genotypes or cultivars. The three URP primers were shown very high reproducibility because of the relatively high annealing temperature and long primer size. Although the results of similarity analyses did not always reflect the genetic relationship between potato varieties, the reproducible pattern of amplified DNA bands by URP primers showed possibility for molecular markers for discrimination of potato genotype or cultivar.

Aflatoxin is a secondary fungal metabolite and is a public health hazard because it is a human carcinogenic and has many deleterious effects in men and animals. Rice is one of the better substrates far the fungus which can produce aflatoxins. This study was performed to investigate aflatoxin reduction during the cooking and processing of rice. Aflatoxin was produced by Aspergillus parasiticus ATCC 15517 on well-milled rice (Japonica type) at the level of 13.2 ppb. Cooked rice, rice cakes (baek-sol-gi, plain steamed rice bread), fermented rice (sikhye, sweet rice beverage), and popped rice were prepared from the aflatoxin-contaminated rice. Aflatoxin content in the samples was determined by high performance liquid chromatography. The total aflatoxin level was decreased to 46.9% in the cooked rice, 85.6% in the rice cakes, 11.4% in the fermented rice, and 7.6% in the popped rice, respectively (p.0.05). This reduction brought the level of aflatoxins down to below the Standard and Specification of korea (10 ppb), except for the rice cakes. These results indicate that washing, steaming, fermentation, and popping of rice was helpful in reducing the aflatoxin level in the rice and the most helpful factors were high temperature & high pressure. More research is needed to understand why the preparation of rice cakes did not reduce the level of aflatoxin as much as the other cooking methods.

Powdery mildew (PM) caused by Podosphaera aphanis is a major disease that can result in significant yield losses in strawberry (Fragaria ${\times}$ ananassa Duchesne). For preventing PM, pesticides are usually applied in strawberry. In this study, molecular markers were developed to increase breeding efficiency of PM-resistance cultivars by marker-assisted selection (MAS). An $F_2$ population derived from a cross between PM-resistance 'Seolhyang' and PM-susceptibility 'Akihime' was evaluated for disease resistance to PM and RAPD (random amplification of polymorphic DNA)-BSA (bulked segregant analysis). Among 200 RAPD primers tested, OPE10 primer amplified a 311bp-band present in with 331bp. Sequence alignment performed for searching polymorphisms and six single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were found in amplified regions. To develop polymorphic marker for distinguishing between resistant and susceptible, RAPD was converted to cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) marker. Among restriction enzymes associated with six SNPs, Eae I (Y/GGCCR) was successfully digested to 231bp in susceptible. The results suggest that the selected CAPS marker could be used for increasing efficiency of selecting powdery mildew resistant strawberry in breeding system.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the food hygiene and safety awareness of academic and specialized high school students, in order to provide basic materials characterization and demonstrate the need for differentiated food hygiene safety education by type of school in the Chungnam area. This study shows that the academic high school students attach more importance to Food Hygiene and Safety than the specialized high school students, but that the latter think it is easier get information about food safety and are more confident in choosing safe food than the former. Regardless of the type of school, 50.5% and 49.3% of the students believed that the safety of the agricultural and livestock products and processed food distributed for sale in the country is acceptable, respectively. 40.7% and 17.2% of the students answered that school food hygiene safety education is required and strongly required, respectively. Compared to the specialized high school students (average 3.17), the academic high school students (average 2.81) responded that they did not receive sufficient food safety education. Those students who were confident in choosing safe food showed a positive correlation with those who were confident in the hygienic handling of food (r = .662) and with those who have sufficient education on food safety (r = .504). We suggest that different food hygiene safety education is needed by academic and specialized high school students until they have sufficient confidence in the hygienic choosing and handling of food.

To compare the hypolipidemic effect of n6 linoleic acid n3 $\alpha$-linolenic acid and n3 eicosapentaenoic acid plus docosahexaenoic acid, male Sprague Dawley rats weighing about 450g were fed the experimental diets for 6 weeks which composed of fat at 15%(W/W) level and were different only in dietary PUFA. Dietary fat was corn oil, perilla oil, and fish oil concentrate as a source of n6 linoleic acid, n3 $\alpha$-linolenic acid, and n3 eicosapentaenoic acid+docosahexaenoic acid, respectively. Plasma total Chol and HDL-chol levels were significantly-lower in fish oil group than in corn oil and erilla oil groups. Plasma cholesterol lowering effect of PUFa was in the order of n3 EPA+DHA>n3 $\alpha$-linolenic acid>n6 linoleic acid. Plasma TG was significantly lower in both fish oil and perilla oil groups than in corn oil group. Plasma TG-lowering effect was greater by n3 PUFA (EPA+DHA, $\alpha$-linolenic acid) than by n6 PUFA(linoleic acid). However, there were no significant effects on lipoprotein pattern hemolysis, and the levels of tocopherol and malondialdehyde in plasma and RBC by difference dietary fat with sufficient tocopherol supplement. Liver superoxide dismutase activity was significantly increased in proportion to the degree of fat unsaturation, thereby resulted in the lower level of MDA in fish oil group. In conclusion, fish oil and perilla oil rich in n3 PUFA may have important nutritional applications in the prevention and treatment of atherosclerotic disease.

The purpose of this study was to seek the spatial organization and prototype landscape through literature reviews, historical evidences, and field surveys for Donggwanwangmyo(東關王廟) shrine in Seoul. The results were as follows : First, the basic layout of the main buildings in Donggwanwangmyo which is the remains influenced by China had bilateral symmetry on the central axis between the north and south. Second, the Chinese forms and features were found at Jeong-jeon and middle gate in Donggwanwangmyo, and the symbolic elements of royal authority was also found in each space of Donggwanwangmyo. Third, spatial organization was classified as the entrance and the ritual area, and the entrance area was maintained by administrators and was used as the place of ritual ceremony preparation. Fourth, the original form of Donggwanwangmyo had been damaged due to the project for making urban park in the 1970s. The most of the existing trees and shrubs which are not suitable to the shrine should be removed to recover the original landscape of Donggwanwangmyo and chui-byoung(翠屛), pond, landscape facilities also needed to be restored. Fifth, Donggwanwangmyo needed to reorganize the pious atmosphere to recover of the shrine environment, and needed to be reclassified as historical site. Finally, some criticizes that Donggwanwangmyo is the result of Toadyism, but Donggwanwangmyo can be used as the valuable tourism resource through the awareness that Donggwanwangmyo was built under the situation of Joseon Dynasty, and organization and understanding that Donggwanwangmyo is a symbolic remains for the exchange between Korea and China.

최근 천연물을 중심으로 한 학문이 발전하면서 천연물이 가지는 생리활성 물질에 대한 관심이 중대되고 있다. 또한 인공합성품의 일부가 안정성의 문제가 제기되면서 천연물의 이용분야는 더욱 확대되고 있다. 급속한 경제발전과 생활수준의 향상으로 식생활을 포함한 생활방식의 다양화로 인하여 과거 감염 위주의 질병이 감소하고 선진국형의 만성퇴행성 질환이 증가하는 추세이다. 혈소판은 혈전증(thrombosis)과 지혈증(haemstasis)에서 중요한 역할을 담당하고 있는 인자로서 현관 내 병적 이상으로 인한 과도한 혈전의 생성은 뇌 -심혈관계 질환의 중요한 유발인자로 작용하므로 뇌ㆍ심혈관계 질환이나 항고지혈증을 연구하는데 유용하게 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 토끼 혈액에서 분리한 세정 혈소판 부유액을 이용하여 작약 MeOH 추출물에서 분리한 천연생리활성물질들을 대상으로 혈소판 응집억제활성에 대하여 연구하였다. 작약 MeOH 추출물의 혈소판 응집억제활성 측정에서 강한 혈소판 응집억제활성 작용을 보였다. 따라서 작약 MeOH 추출물을 크로마토그라피법을 이용하여 분리하였고, NMR을 이용한 분광학적 방법으로 지금까지의 분리한 자료와 비교ㆍ분석하였다. Monoterpene glycoside 계열의 성분들인 15개의 compound와 다수의 fraction들을 HPLC를 이용하여 분리하였으며, collagen으로 유도된 혈소판 응집억제활성측정 방법에서 뛰어난 응집억제활성을 보였다. 표준물질을 이용한 HPLC 분석과 ¹H-NMR 관련 자료의 검색을 통하여 최종적으로 compound 1b가 benzoyloxy-paeoniflorin(2.6％). compound 1d가 paeond(1.3％), compound 2c가 albiflorin(3.2％), compound 2e가 paeoniflorin(33.6％)임을 확인할 수 있었다. Compound 3a의 분석결과 benzoyloxypaeoniflorin과 구조적 유사성은 있으나 동일한 구조식으로 확인할 수 없었다. 그러나 collagen에서 응집억제활성이 90％ 이상으로 뛰어난 활성을 나타내므로 benzoyloxypaeoniflorin과 유사한 구조에서 benzoyl group이 다른 작용기로 치환되었거나 R₁ group이 다른 작용기로 치환된 형태로 추측하였다. Benzoyloxypaeoniflorin은 collagen＞thrombin＞U46616＞A.A(arachidonic acid)＞PAF의 순으로 활성을 보였다. 이는 paeoniflorin의 glycoside 5-carbon위치에 위치한 OH기 대신에 benzoyl기로 치환된 benzoyl 기가 혈소판 억제 산물로 작용한 것으로 추측했다. Paeoniflorin.은 U46619＞thrombin＞collagen＞A.A＞PAF순으로 억제를 보였다. Paeoniflorin이 collagen보다 thrombin에서 강한 억제를 보이는 것으로 Ca/sup 2＋/ chelate를 형성함으로 인해 calciu 대사를 저해하는 것으로 추축했다. Compound 3a는 U46619＞collagen＞A.A＞thrombin＞PAF순으로 억제율을 보이므로 이 화합물은 paeoniflorin의 benzoyl기에 OH기가 다른 치환기로 바뀌거나 paeoniflorin의 glycoside 5-carbon 위치의 OH기 대신에 다른 작용기로 치환된 것으로 추정하였다. 이러한 결과로 작약의 주성분인 paeoniflorin과 유사한 구조를 가진 다른 monoterpene glycoside 계열의 화합물들과 비교 분석하고 구조를 화인하고 이들 성분이 어떻게 혈소판 응집억제활성에 작용하는지를 연구하였다.

Cladocera are important food organism for seed production of finfishes. freshwater cladocera such as Daphnia and Moina are well known food organisms for the larval rearing of freshwater fishes and are easy for mass culture. However, mass culture technique for marine cladocera are not yet developed, The only mass produced food organisms available these days for the larval production of marine finfishes are rotifer and Artemia. An estuarine cladoceran, Diaphanosoma celebensis, has a high possibility of being used as a food organism for the larval rearing of marine finfishes because this species is much easier to mass culture than marine ones. Therefore many studies are needed for this species. In this study, the effects of the volumes of culture container, 40, 1,500 and 15,000 ml, on the stable production of this species were tested and results are as follow: The maximum densities of this species in each of the culture volumes were reached after 14 days in 40 ml, 12 days in 1,500 ml, and 21 days in 15,000 ml with values of 3.4 $\pm$ 0.4, 14.2 $\pm$ 2.1 and 2.5 $\pm$ 1.6 per ml, respectively. The relative population growth index (RPGI) was stable in the culture volume of 1,500 ml. Moreover, possible harvesting number(individual/ml/day) was much higher in the 1,500 ml container than the other culture volumes. Therefore, optimum culture volume among the tested volumes for mass production of this species was 1,500 ml.

A Helicobacter pylori urease inhibitor from Rubus coreanus Miquel has been isolated and partially characterized for aiming to Prevent H. pylori growth and decrease harmful accumulation of ammonia in human gastric mucosa. We screened urease inhibitory activities in 519 extracts library prepared by solvent extraction from 173 kinds of edible plants, medicinal herbs, herbs and seaweeds using a colorimetric urease assay system. As results of primary and secondary screening, 70% acetone extract of Rubus coreanus Miquel was selected as potent candidate, showing about 24% inhibitory activity. The acetone extract was sequentially partitioned into RCE/RCWI and RCB/RCW2 layers with ethyl acetate and butanol. The major active component in RCW2, water layer from butanol fractionation was revealed to be peptidic or proteinous substance by inhibitory activity determination after pronase digestion and periodate oxidation. RCW2-IIIc a was isolated by sequential column chromatography on DEAE-Toyopearl 650C, Butrl-Toyopearl 650M and Sephadex LH-20. The isolated urease inhibitor RCW2-IIIc $\alpha$, was highly pure proteinous substance with molecular weight of 13kDa by high-performance gel permeation liquid chromatography. RCW2-IIIc$\alpha$ has about 5 times higher inhibitory activity than 70％ acetone extract, showing high stability against heat treatment and peptic digestion.
