Background : The intrapleural hypofibrinolysis is caused by mainly excessive concentration of pleural plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 antigen(PAI-1 Ag), which binds tissue type plasminogen activator. In pleural inflammation induced by sclerosing agents for pleurodesis, levels of pleural PAI-1 antigen increase in relation to decreasing D-dimer levels. It has been known that the pleural mesothelial cells have the capability of secreting PAI-1 Ag in response to inflammation in vivo. Therefore, we estimated whether pleural inflammation changes the balance between fibrinolytic and coagulative properties in exudative pleural effusions. Method : The thirty cases was included in our study. We determined the pleural levels of glucose, lactic dehydrogenase(LDH), pH and the counts of white blood cell(WBC), polymorpho leukocyte(PMN), lymphocyte as the parameters of pleural inflammation and cellular components of pleural fluid. The plasma level of fibrinogen in fluid and the neutrophil count in blood were determined. The levels of D-dimer, PAI-1 Ag and thrombinantithrombin III complex(TAT) were determined by ELISA(Behring, Marburg, Germany). Result : The causes of pleural effusion were as following : tuberculous in 14 cases, malignant in 10 cases and parapneumonic in 6 cases. The levels of pleural D-dimer, PAI-1 Ag and TAT was significantly higher than that of plasma(p<0..001). The severity of pleural inflammation did not correlated with pleural D-dimer, PAI-1 Ag, TAT and their plasma levels. But the level of pleural TAT correlated with pleural WBC and lymphocyte count. Conclusion : We found that the severity of pleural inflammations did not correlated with pleural D-dimer, PAI-1 Ag, TAT and the possibility of local production of PAI-1 antigen is present.

In vitro digestibility of filefish, protein was substantially decreased by fiber constituents in the follow-ing order : pectin (9.97%), gum karaya (7.03%), sodium alginate (6.12%),and cellulose (1.52%). The order of reduction by fibrous residues from vegetables ranked as follows : sea tangle (12.36%), Ro-maine lettuce (11.12%), perillar leaf (8.96%), and green pepper (5.15%). The inhibitory effect of the dietary fibers towards filefish protein digestion, expressed as soybean trypsin inhibitor equivalents, in-creased with added levels, but the inhibition differed with the sources of dietary fibers. Sea tangle and sodium alginate were most active in decreasing the concentration of essential amino acid from filefish protein hydrolysis. Sodium alginate exerted an inhibitory effect on the activity of trypsin, but the other fiber constituents did not have an inhibitory potency on trypsin and bacterial pretense (Streptomyces griceus). Results supported that dietary fiber components may reduce protein digestibility through the interaction of dietary fiber components with filefish protein.

A filamentous microorganism was isolated from completely rotten wood for the production of cellulolytic enzyme. The Trichoderma sp. FJ1 produced a large amount of cellulolytic enzymes, such as CMC, xylanase, ${\beta}-glucosidase$, and avicelase. For the production of the enzymes, when cellulolsic wastes were used as carbon sources of strain FJ1, rice straw showed higher enzyme activities than sawdust and pulp. The activities of CMC, xylanase, ${\beta}-glucosidase$, and avicelase were 2.95, 5.89, 0.45, and 0.12 U/ml in use of rice straw, respectively. To enhance production of the enzymes, the mixture substrate of rice straw and commercial cellulosic materials was investigated as carbon sources. The highest activities of CMCase, ${\beta}-glucosidase$, and avicelase were found in the mixture of rice straw and avicel, particularly rice straw:avicel (50:50), and the highest xylanase was obtained in the mixture ratio of 71:29. Bacto peptone addition of 0.1% showed enhanced production of the cellulolytic enzymes in which the activities of CMCase, xylanase ${\beta}-glucosidase$, and avicelase were 19.23, 27.18, 1.28, and 0.53 U/ml, respectively. The production of the enzymes using rice straw was efficiently induced in present of avicel and pulp containing high content of cellulose. Consequently, the filamentous microorganism, strain FJ1 utilized various cellulosic wastes as carbon sources and cellulases productivities were excellent compared to those of others strains reported previously, suggesting that the strain FJ1 will be expected as a favorable candidate for biological saccharification of cellulosic wastes in further.

A filamentous microorganism, strain FJ1, was isolated from completely rotten wood for the production of cellulolytic enzymes. For the production of the enzymes, cellulolsic wastes were used as carbon sources of strain FJ1 and rice straw showed higher enzyme activities than sawdust and pulp. The activities of CMCase, xylanase, $\beta$-glucosidase, and avicelase were 2.95, 5.89, 0.45, and 0.12 unit/ml by use of rice straw, respectively. To enhance production of the enzymes, the mixture substrate of rice straw and cellulosic materials were investigated as carbon sources. The highest activities of CMCase, $\beta$-glucosidase, and avicelase were found in the mixture of rice straw (0.5%, w/v) and avicel (0.5%, w/v), and the highest xylanase was obtained at the mixture ratio of 0.71%(w/v) and 0.29%(w/v). Addition of 0.1%(w/v) peptone showed enhanced production of the cellulolytic enzymes in which the activities of CMCase, xylanase, $\beta$-glucosidase, and avicelase were 19.23, 27.18, 1.28, and 0.53 unit/ml, respectively. The production of the enzymes using rice straw was efficiently induced in the presence of avicel and pulp containing cellulose. In particular, a medium composed of rice straw (0.5%, w/v) and pulp (0.5%, w/v) yielded larger cellulolytic enzymes: CMCase 24.3 unit/ml, xylanase 38.7 unit/ml, $\beta$-glucosidase 1.5 unit/ml, and avicelase 0.6 unit/ml. The filamentous microorganism, strain FJ1 utilized various cellulosic wastes as carbon sources and will be expected as a favorable candidate for biological saccharification of cellulosic wastes.

Fish paste was prepared to enhance physiological functions by adding 2.5, 5 and 10% dietary fiber isolated from ascidian (halocynthia roretzi) tunic. Hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, chewiness and shear force of the fish paste were increased with addition of the dietary fiber. Water activity and Hunter's color values of the fish paste were not significantly changed by addition of the dietary fiber. Results of sensory evaluation indicated that no difference was observed in color, texture and overall acceptance (p<0.05). However, the fish paste with 5% dietary fiber scored the highest and was generally preferred by sensory panels.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was used for optimization the fraction conditions of xylose from pepper stem with dilute sulfuric acid. The independent variables were acid concentration in the range of 1.134 to 2.866%, reaction temperatures in the range of 142.68 to $177.32^{\circ}C$, and hydrolysis time in the range of 6.34 to 23.66 min. were studied. The dependent variables were xylose yield from pepper stem, and the production of by-products, for example, furfural, acetic aicd, HMF etc. Experimental results had a good match with statistical result. The maximum xylose yield obtained in this experiment was 71% concentration.

Plasminogen activators (PA)는 다수의 세포 형태에서 분비되는 것으로 알려진 serine protease이다. PA는 섬유소 용해, 배란, 유선 퇴화, 착상 및 수정 등 다양한 생리적인 과정에 관여한다. 본 연구는 난포액이 돼지 난자의 체외성숙에 미치는 영향을 검토하기 위하여, 다양한 조건하에서의 돼지 난자의 성숙과 난구세포-난자 복합체(Cumulus-Oocyte complexes: COCs) 또는 conditioned medium 내의 PA 활성을 검토하였다. 직경 2∼6m 난포로부터 COCs를 회수하여 일부는 난구세포를 제거하였다.
