With architectural technology, a building has been a far dense and close. So the thermal environment of the building has become pleasant, but the quality of indoor air has been degraded. Using synthetic products for construction materials and furniture indoors escalates the concentration of volatile organic compounds(VOCs) at indoor air, threatening the health of the residents. To reduce the concentration of volatile organic compounds at indoor air, many methods are designed, and of late, concern has been increased about the effect of air purification using air purifying plants. Field measurements were performed using Aglaonema brevispathum, Pachira aquatica and Ficus benjamiana, which were verified as air-purifying plants by NASA. The effect of reducing the concentration of air contaminants by plant studied in a full scale mock-up model. The variations of concentration of Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Formaldehyde were monitored. In most cases, the effect was excellent in Toluene and formaldehyde in summer.

산소라디칼-질병모델을 보다 간편한 방법으로 만들어 생화학적 발병 기전을 추구하므로서 신약창출에 필요한 기초자료를 제시하고자 본 실험을 실시하였다. 미세혈관의 혈류이상은 과잉의 활성산소를 생산하게되며 이로 인해 여러 종류의 난치성 질환 및 염증을 수반하는 많은 질병이 발병하게 된다. 일반적으로 흔히 이용되어지는 허혈-재관류모델이 아닌 환경독성물질을 활용한 병태모델을 만들어 이 모델조건에서 활성산소생성과 밀접한 관계를 갖는 잔틴 옥시데이즈(Xanthine Oxidase)의 변화와 과산화지질생성정도를 연관지어 검토하였다. 수은, 구리, 몰리브덴등의 금속이온들은 잔틴 디하이드로저네이즈(Xanthine dehydrogenase)로 부터 옥시데이즈(Oxidase)형으로의 전환을 촉진시켰으며 막독성의 지표로 이용되어지는 과산화지질의 생성도 현저히 증가시켰다. 또한 알데하이드류의 첨가실험에서도 잔틴산화효소의 형전환이 촉진되었으며 첨가한 알데하이드의 탄소수와 수소수 그리고 탄소와 탄소의 결합상태와도 밀접한 관계가 있음이 관찰되었다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the performance of formaldehyde removal from building materials using catechin contained in ginkgo leaf. A small chamber method was used to set up one control group and three experimental groups. As a result, it showed a reduction of formaldehyde from at least 73.5% to 77% when it was increased by 0.4g compared to the control (0g). In addition, it was confirmed by linear regression analysis that the amount of ginkgo leaf and the amount of formaldehyde emission were negatively correlated. Therefore, it was confirmed that the amount of formaldehyde emission was affected by ginkgo leaf.
