Extracts which were prepared by four different extractions - 80% methanol extracts (ME) at high ($70^{\circ}C$) and a room temperature ($20^{\circ}C$), respectively and aqueous extracts (AE) at both temperatures with the residue after the methanol extracts - of 10 green, 19 brown and 25 red seaweeds collected in Jeju Island coast were examined for their DPPH free radical scavenging activity using a ESR (electron spin resonance) spectroscopy. A variety of the extracts showed positive scavenging effect against DPPH free radical (except the green seaweeds). Among the extracts, the brown seaweed extracts exhibited the highest scavenging activity. Especially, Sargassum spp. of the brown seaweeds have remarkable scavenging activities - both methanolic and aqueous at the both temperatures ($20^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$). On the other hand, ME showed better scavenging activity than AE in the red seaweed extracts. These results indicate that autogenous seaweeds in Jeju will be potential natural antioxidants for functional food compounds.

The major objective of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activities of methanolic extracts from different parts (flower, leaf stem, and root) of Chrysanthemum zawadskii by employing various in-vitro assay systems. The extraction yields from the flower, leaf stem, and root were 18.347, 12.93, and 11.33-----, respectively. The total polyphenol content was highest in the flower (17.16 mg/100 g) and lowest in the root (11.33 mg/100 g). The antioxidant activities were raised within creasing amounts of extracts, and the extracts from the flower showed the highest effect on the superoxide anion radical scavenging, metal chelating on ferrous ions and reducing power. In addition, the leaf stem also showed good antioxidant activity in various systems. These results suggest that the methanolic extracts from the flower and leaf stem possess excellent antioxidant activities and may thus serve as potential sources of natural antioxidants.

제주조릿대 잎 열수 추출 진액을 첨가한 식초음료를 개발하기 위해 항산화 활성을 관찰하였다. 항산화활성은 DPPH radical 소거활성, Hydroxyl radical 소거 활성 실험을 진행하였다. Base 식초를 선택하기 위한 쌀 식초와 사과식초의 DPPH 라디칼 소거활성에서는 식초 원액에 비해 제주조릿대를 첨가하였을 때 쌀 식초는 최대 68.07%증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었고, 사과식초의 경우 78.74% 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 맛, 향, 단가, 항산화활성을 통하여 사과식초를 Base식초로 선택하였으며, Base식초와 제주조릿대 진액의 혼합비를 결정하기 위하여 배합율에 따른 항산화활성 연구에서는, DPPH 라디칼 소거활성의 경우 제주조릿대의 비율이 높아짐에 따라 DPPH 라디칼 소거능 역시 증가하는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. Hydroxyl 라디칼 소거활성의 경우, 제주조릿대 진액의 비율을 증가시킬 수록 활성이 조금씩 떨어졌으나, 대조군인 석류와 블루베리 식초에 비해서는 10%이상 높은 소거활성이 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this study, total antioxidant properties of extracts from different parts of Lespedeza bicolor were determined using techniques of measuring 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl/2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)-radical scavenging activity and total phenolic contents. The total antioxidant activities of leaf, stem and root extracts from various solvents (water, 50, 70, 100% ethanol, and hot-water) indicated that 50 and 70% ethanol extracts have high radical scavenging activities and phenolic contents. A systematic approach was used to determine the total antioxidant activity of different solvent fractions of the Lespedeza bicolor extracts, partitioning with chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water, and the ethyl acetate fraction was found to have the strongest antioxidant activity. Antioxidant assay-guided isolation was carried out to isolate potential antioxidant compounds. The ethyl acetate fraction of the leaf extract was subjected to silica gel, LH-20 and RP-18 column chromatography successively, and afforded compound 1, which was identified as eriodictyol by NMR and MS analysis, after which its antioxidant activity was determined.

Antioxidant activities of various solvent extracts from Coriolus versicolor were investigated for their total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) cation radical scavenging activity. C. versicolor extracts were produced by organic solvents such as ethanol, ethyl acetate, and methanol. Total polyphenol and flavonoid contents in the ethanol and ethyl acetate extracts were higher than those in the methanol extract. DPPH radical scavenging activity of methanol extract showed the highest value of 80.3%, which was similar to that of ascorbic acid (85.5%). All extracts showed good (>90.0%) ABTS cation radical scavenging activity. The antimicrobial activities of these extracts from C. versicolor were evaluated against six strains of bacteria using the disc diffusion method. All extracts showed antimicrobial activities against all tested bacteria except Staphylococcus aureus. These results indicate that various extracts from C. versicolor could be useful as natural antioxidant and antimicrobial agents.

Antioxidant activity of ethanolic extract of two giant embryonic rices, Nampung giant embryonic rice and Hwachung giant embryonic rice, were investigated mainly focusing on their ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation and scavenge reactive oxygen species in comparison with those of general rice. The results showed that germination process increased reducing power, inhibitory activity on lipid peroxidation and scavenging ability either on superoxide or hydroxyl radicals. Among the cultivars tested, increase in antioxidative action was found to be most prominent for Hwachung giant embryonic rice cultivar. For scavenging of superoxide radicals, the extract from Nampung giant embryonic rice has the most potent activity, however, increasing rate of scavenging activity by germination process was also found to be the greatest for Hwachung giant embryonic rice. We found that the scavenging mechanism for superoxide radicals was attributed to the direct scavenging of the radicals. The scavenging of hydroxyl radicals, the most toxic oxygen radical to biological system, by the rice extracts were also examined, and the results showed that either overall activity or the increasing rate of the activity to scavenge hydroxyl radicals by germination process was the greatest for Hwachung giant embryonic rice. Moreover, the results suggested that the scavenging action to hydroxyl radicals might be mediated by direct quenching of the radicals, not by chelating $Fe^{2+}$. Further studies showed that the antioxidant action of the rice extracts tested in vitro was also operative for suppressing ROS production induced in TPA-stimulated HL-60 cells.

To develop the functional food, methanol extracts of dried plantain (Plantago asiatica L.) was fractionated in hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol and aqueous fraction. DPPH radical scavenging effect, reducing power, nitrite scavenging effect and antimicrobial activities of these fractions were investigated. Ethyl acetate fraction among these fractions showed the highest effect of all experiments. Ethyl acetate fraction showed about 60% scavenging effect on the DPPH radicals at 400 $\mu$g/5 mL. Nitrite scavenging effect of ethyl acetate and butanol fraction was more than 70~80% at concentration above of 500 $\mu$g. Among various solvent fractions from methanol extracts of plantain, ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest inhibitory effect on the microorganism such as Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus at 5 mg/disc.

본 논문에서는 As-Ge-Se-S 박막에 (P:P) 편광빔을 이용하여 회절격자를 형성시키고 비편광 (Non-Polarization) 빔을 이용하여 생성된 격자를 소거시키고 그에 따른 회절효율을 조사 하였다. (P:P) 편광으로 기록된 회절 효율은 시간이 지나도 최대 회절효율의 변화가 없었으나 비편광 빔으로 기록된 회절효율은 시간이 지남에 따라 급격한 회절효율의 감소를 보인다. 따라서 (P:P) 편광으로 회절격자를 형성시키고 비편광빔으로 격자의 소거를 진행하여 약 83%의 회절격자의 소거가 이루어졌다.

The benefits of infrastructure support are shown by analyzing a throughput scaling law of an erasure network in which multiple relay stations (RSs) are regularly placed. Based on suitably modeling erasure probabilities under the assumed network, we show our achievable network throughput in the hybrid erasure network. More specifically, we use two types of physical models, a exponential decay model and a polynomial decay model. Then, we analyze our achievable throughput using two existing schemes including multi-hop transmissions with and without help of RSs. Our result indicates that for both physical models, the derived throughput scaling law depends on the number of nodes and the number of RSs.
