다양한 생체 재료들을 이용한 마이크로 및 나노 크기의 표면 구조 모사는 조직공학에서 세포의 성장 및 분화에 영향을 미치는 것으로 알려져 있다. 특히, 마이크로-나노 구조가 공존하는 계층적 표면 구조는 골 아세포의 증식과 분화에 탁월하여 뼈 조직 재생에 응용되어 왔다. 기존에는 화학적 처리 기법을 이용하여 마이크로 표면 구조가 제작 되었으나 미세 거칠기 및 계층적 표면 구조의 제어가 어려웠다. 현재 이러한 문제점들을 극복하기 위해 플라즈마를 이용한 애칭 기법이 주로 이용되고 있으나 높은 온도 공정 환경에 의한 재료 선택의 한계점 및 오랜 공정 시간에 의한 플라즈마 처리 효율이 감소되어 원하는 표면구조 및 거칠기를 얻을 수 없다는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점들을 극복하기 위해 마이크로/나노 주조 기법 이용하여 생체적합성 합성고분자 poly(${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PCL) 위에 연꽃잎 구조를 모사한 후 플라즈마 애칭 기법을 이용하여 마이크로-($3.01-3.07{\mu}m$)와 나노크기 ($97{\pm}16nm$)를 동시에 갖는 계층적 구조를 제작하였다. 제작된 구조의 효능을 관찰하기 위해 조골세포를 배양한 결과 평평한 PCL 구조보다 제작된 계층적 구조가 높은 세포성장률 (>2.9배)및 세포 분화도(>2.1배)를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 새로운 표면 공학적 모델로서 손상된 뼈 및 치아조직 재생을 위한 적합한 거칠기 및 표면적인 환경을 제공해 빠른 재생 능력과 더불어 치료기간의 단축을 가져 올 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

Various microorganisms secreting plant growth regulators were screened from the 100 microbial isolates including bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi. The isolates showing distict influence on the plant growth were identified as Aspergillus niger. The germinations of Raphanus and Cucubis seeds were completely inhibited by the culture filtrates of A. niger KK, A. niger KKS and A. niger ATCC 9462. The culture filtrates of the three strains also inhibited the formation and development of roots and hypocotyls of Raphanus. The culture filtrates of A. niger ATCC 26550 induced the hypocotyl curvature of Raphanus like plant hormone-auxin and at the same time caused the necrosis of the whole leaves.

The black soldier fly larvae are able to decompose various organic wastes such as livestock manures and food wastes. We tested whether the quality of the insect derived compost, i.e. larval feces, was comparable to that of a commercial fertilizer. Chemical analysis of Hermetia. illucens compost was suitable as a fertilizer. When the kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) was raised on the culture soil treated with the H. illucens compost, the growth of leaf area, total dry weight and leaf dry weight increased significantly. The H. illucens compost is thought to act as an increasing factor of RGR (relative growth rate) from the beginning of growth and also had a great effect on the relative growth rate throughout the late stage of growth. There is high statistical significance between NAR (net assimilation rate) and RGR (relative growth rate), but no significance between RGR and LAR (leaf assimilation rate) of the treatments. In addition, the treatment of H. illucens compost promoted the thickness of leaves from the beginning of growth and the tendency of thickening leaves from the beginning of growth and the effect continued throughout the late period of growth. When mixed with 50% of H. illucens compost rather than 25%, it showed the greater effect on the plant growth.

Cudrania tricuspidata has been used for a long time as a traditional herb medicine in Korea nad China. This paper has shown the experimental results about the physiological activities of water-, ethanol-, ethyl acetate-soluble fractions from ethanolic extracts of leaves, stems and roots of Cudrania tricuspidata. The effects of these fractions on the growth of various cells have exhibited that the ethyl acetate fractions from leaves, stems and roots inhibited significantly the growths of macrophage(RAW 264.7 cell), melanoma cell(B16-F10 cell), fibroblast cell(CCD-986sk cell), and lung carcinoma cell(A549 cell). The water and ethanol fractions of leaves and ethanol fraction of stems demonstrated better antioxidant activities scavenging radicals than other fractions when compared with the concentrations of different fractions for scavenging free radical DPPH (di(phenyl)-(2,4,6-trinitrophenyl) iminoazanium).

Physiological activity in different parts of Dolsan leaf mustard (DLM) was investigated. To determine the physiological activity, DLM was crushed filtered centrifuged and then the supernatant was used as a sample. of 1%, 3% and 6%. By adding of improved root juice(20th day) with the concentration of 6% the cytotoxicity against HepG2 was the highest about 78.2%. And antioxidative effects in different parts of DLM was measured by using the DPPH method. Antioxidative effects was higher in all leaves than other parts. In particular antioxidative effects was the highest in leaves of traditional DLM at the 20th day of growth about 80.4%. In leaves of improved DLM at the 60th growth angiotensin-I converting enzyme inhibitory effect was the highest about 94.0%. Consequently there was not significant difference of physiological activity between improved and traditional DLM. However the cytotoxicity against HepG2 was the highest in roots of DLM. And the antioxidative and the ACE inhibitory effect in leaves of DLM were higher than those of other parts.

Selection of the plant material for planting to reduce fine dust should comprehensively consider the visual characteristics, such as the shape and texture of the plant leaves and form of bark, which affect the adsorption function of the plant. However, previous studies on reduction of fine dust through plants have focused on the absorption function rather than the adsorption function of plants and on foliage plants, which are indoor plants, rather than the outdoor plants. In particular, the criterion for selection of fine dust reduction species is not specific, so research on the selection criteria for plant materials for fine dust reduction in urban areas is needed. The purpose of this study is to identify the priorities of eight indicators that affect the fine dust reduction by using the fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making model (MCDM) and establish the tree selection criteria for the urban planting to reduce fine dust. For the purpose, we conducted a questionnaire survey of those who majored in fine dust-related academic fields and those with experience of researching fine dust. A result of the survey showed that the area of leaf and the tree species received the highest score as the factors that affect the fine dust reduction. They were followed by the surface roughness of leaves, tree height, growth rate, complexity of leaves, edge shape of leaves, and bark feature in that order. When selecting the species that have leaves with the coarse surface, it is better to select the trees with wooly, glossy, and waxy layers on the leaves. When considering the shape of the leaves, it is better to select the two-type or three-type leaves and palm-shaped leaves than the single-type leaves and to select the serrated leaves than the smooth edged leaves to increase the surface area for adsorbing fine dust in the air on the surface of the leaves. When considering the characteristics of the bark, it is better to select trees that have cork layers or show or are likely to show the bark loosening or cracks than to select those with lenticel or patterned barks. This study is significant in that it presents the priorities of the selection criteria of plant material based on the visual characteristics that affect the adsorption of fine dust for the planning of planting to reduce fine dust in the urban area. The results of this study can be used as basic data for the selection of trees for plantation planning in the urban area.

The effect of $Cd^2+$ on chlorophyll content, water potentials, ion transport, photosynthesis, stomatal apertures and $Cd^2+$ accumulation of organs in Commelina communis was investigated. 3-weeks old Commelina. communis was transferred to and grown in Hoagland solution in the presence or absence of 5 mM $Cd^2+$ for 4 days. $Cd^2+$ was accumulated in all parts of the organs including leaves, roots and stem. The proximity from the root and the age of leaf were significant factors responsible for the distribution of cadmium. Most of $Cd^2+$ was accumulated in the first leaf which was the nearest from the root. $Cd^2+$) accumulation in the leaves led to significant reductions in a series of physiological metabolism. $Cd^2+$ reduced total chlorophyll content up to 70%, and changed chlorophyll a/b ratio to 2. $Cd^2+$ also reduced about 20% of water potential. The treatment of $Cd^2+$ showed about 60% inhibition of photosynthetic activity when measured at various light intensity (100-1,000 $\mu$mol $Em^-2s^-1$). Similar effect was found in terms of stomatal conductance. Therefore, it could be concluded that the treatment of $Cd^2+$ decrease or block various physiological activities.

We have investigated several factors influencing adventitious shoot induction from the Populus deltodies bartr. leaf segments. To obtain in vitro materials, at first, stem segments from ex vivro were tested for axillary bud breaking on the five macronutrients levels of two differenr media. WPM was better both in bud breaking and leaf expansion than MS medium. The amount of NH$_{4}$NO$_{3}$ added in the medium did not seem to affect axillary bud breaking, significantly and subsequent shoot elongation from the stem segments of P. deltodies. However, other components in WPM might have played important roles in axillary bud breaking and shoot elongation. Regenerability from three sections (the distal, the middle and the base) of leaves cultured on WPM supplemented with TDZ and NAA combinations appeared to be different; middle and basal sections of leaves produced more organogenic sites than those of top section on WPM and those sesctions produced the highest ogranogenic sites on the same medium supplemented with 0.01 mg/l TDZ and 0.02mg.l NAA. Among 3 carbon sources tested for adventitious shoot elongation, fructose seemed to be stimulating the elongation of adventitious shoots. Sucrose and glucose added in the medium resulted in the necrosis which caused dying of adventitious shoots, eventually.

The present researches were carried out to investigate the peroxidase activity in association with the reactions of the 4 cultivars of rice plant, Nagdong, Jinheung, Nongbaek and Taebaek to Pyricularia oryzae race KJ-I0l and KJ-301. Although the peroxidase activity was increased during the growth of the rice seedlings, the significant difference in the activity was not found among 4 cultivars. After inoculation of the fungus, the peroxidase activity was enhanced in diseased leaves, being considerably higher in the compatible than in the incompatible cultivars. The isozyme bands of peroxidases observed in mycelium of rice blast fungus were not found in the diseased leaves on the gel electrophoresis. The peroxidase activity was not affected by the increased application of nitrogenous fertilizer.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of fine bubble water treatment on the growth of ginseng seedlings. The growth of ginseng seedlings which were treated with general water and fine bubble water was investigated. The above ground part, the growth of leaf was increased by about 10% and the growth of the stem was about 6%, as the ginseng seedlings which were treated with fine bubble water comparing to the ginseng seedlings treated with general water. Root length was increased about 5%, root width was increased about 8%, roots weight was increased about 9%, and dry weight was increased about 7%. This is not because the whole root growth was increased, but the main root growth was increased about 7%. These results suggested that the physical properties of the fine bubble water stimulated the growth of ginseng seedlings. These results are initial study in the case of ginseng seedlings. Therefore, it can be applicable to the 3-5 years old ginseng plants. Further research will be needed to find out the optimal cultivation condition by controlling the dissolved oxygen amount according to the soil condition and the research applied to the ginseng seedlings.
