Changes in lipid components of Gul-bi, salted-dried yellow corvenia, during processing and storage were studied. Raw fishes contained $6.7\%$ total lipid (TL) which consisted of $83.3\%$ neutral lipid (NL), $6.5\%$ glycolipid (GL) and $10.2\%$ phospholipid (PL), and salted-dried sample at 30 days storage contained $11.1\%$ TL which consisted of $86.1\% NL, $7.1\%$ GL and $6.8\%$ PL. The NL was mainly consisted of trigly ceride (TG), free sterol (FS), free fatty acid (FFA), and the main lipids in PL were phosphatidyl choline (PC), phosphatidly ethanolamine (PE) and sphingomyelin (SPM). The contents of TG, PC, PE decreased, while that of FFA, SPM increased during processing and storage. Total fatty acid contents of raw fish, salted sample, salted-dried sample (product) and product at 30/days of storage were 847.9, 764.0, 633.5 and 588.mg/g-lipid, respectively, taking $C_{23:0}$ as the internal standard material. Most fatty acid con tents of TL revealed a tendency to decrease during processing and storage, highly unsaturated fatty acid such as $C_{22:6},\;C_{20:5}$, decreased largely. The major fatty acids in TL, NL, GL and PL were generally $C_{16:0},\;C_{16:1},\;C_{18:1},\;C_{20:5},\;C_{22:6}. Percentage of $C_{16:1},\;C_{18:1}$ in NL and GL and GL are higher than those in PL, while $C_{22:6},\;C_{20:5},\;C_{20:4}$. Peroxide value in salted-dried sample is 121.6 meq/kg and decreased rapidly with storage period, carbonyl value and brown pigment formation showed tendency of increase during processing and storage.

We investigated the hydrochemical properties of ChusanYongchulso Spring located in Buk-myeon, Ulleung Island, focusing on the formation and characteristics of aquifers in and around the Nari caldera. Abundant pumice with high permeability and numerous fractures (including faults and joints) that formed as a result of caldera subsidence are widely distributed in the subsurface, favoring the formation of aquifers. Because of the presence of porous pyroclastic rocks with a high internal surface area, the water type of the springs is characterized by $NaHCO_3$, with upper stream waters and the upper spring being characterized by $NaHCO_3$ and NaCl, respectively. Components with a high coefficient of determination with EC are $HCO_3$, Na, F, Ca, Mg, Cl, $SiO_2$, and $SO_4$. The high concentrations of Na and Cl might be attributable to the main lithologies in the area, given that alkaline volcanic rocks are distributed extensively across Ulleung Island. Eh and pH, which are considered to be important indicators of water-rock interaction, are unrelated to most components. According to the results obtained from factor analysis, the variance explained by factor 1 is 54% and by factor 2 is 25.8%. Components with a high loading on factor 1 are F, Na, EC, Cl, $HCO_3$, $SO_4$, $SiO_2$, Ca, $NO_3$, and Mg, whereas components with a high loading on factor 2 are Mg and Ca, along with K, $NO_3$, and DO with negative loadings. It is suggested that the high concentrations of Na, Cl, F, and $SO_4$ are closely related to the presence of fine-grained alkaline pyroclastic rocks with high permeability and porosity, which favorintensewater-rock interaction. However, a wide-ranging investigation that encompasses methods such as geophysical prospecting and geochemical analysis (including isotope, trace-element, and tracer techniques) will be necessary to gain a better understanding of the groundwater chemistry, aquifer distribution, and water cycling of Ulleung Island.

Using the lipids extracted from Korean yam(Dioscorea) tubers, D. batatas, D. aimadoimo and D. japonica, fractionation and identification of lipid components and their fatty acid compositions were analysed. Lipid contents determined by Folch's method in D. batatas, D. aimadoimo and D. japonica were 11.0 mg/g, 11.4 mg/g and 6.6 mg/g, respectively. Lipids extracted were fractionated into neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid by silicic acid column chromatography. The content of neutral lipid was over about 60% in lipid. Neutral lipid was composed of sterol ester, triglyceride, 1,3-diglyceride, 1,2-diglyceride and monoglyceride. Main constituents of glycolipid were acylsterylglycoside, monogalactosyldiglyceride, sterylglycoside, digalactosyldiglyceride and sulfolipid, and phospholipid contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol. The fatty acids of the total lipid and its three lipid fractions were analyzed by GC. The major fatty acids were palmitic and linoleic acids. Content of the saturated fatty acids was less than that of the unsaturated fatty acids.

The cytotoxic effects of lipid extracts from soybean products were studied using K562 human leukemia cell, Yac1 mouse leukemia cell and S 180 mouse sarcoma cell. Total lipids from soybean powder, soybean curd residue and doenjang were extracted with chloroform/methanol (2 : 1) and water saturated butanol, consecutively, and fractionated into acetone supernatants (AS fraction) and acetone precipitates (AP fraction) by adding excess acetone. AS fraction of doenjang lipids showed the strongest cytotoxic effects on K562, Yac1 and S180 cancer cells, whereas each lipid fraction of soybean curd residue also showed relatively weak cytotoxic effects on cancer cells but soybean powder did not. AS and AP fractions of doenjang contained more free fatty acids than those of soybean curd residue and soybean. And when lipid fractions were digested with 0.4 N KOH/methanol, doenjang lipid fractions showed to contain some alkali-stable substances which showed positive reaction with ninhydrin solution on silica TLC separation.

This study was carried out to define the geochemical and mineralogical relationship between stream sediments and regional geology on upstream of Hahn river area. Geochemical characteristic including for major elements, trace elements and rare earth elements of the South and North Hahn river bed sediments are similar to those of acid igneous rocks which are distributed around both Hahn river basin. The chemical variation of major elements against SiO$_2$ and trace elements contents between South and North Hahn river bed sediments doesn't show the difference. REE patterns of both area show a distinct negative Eu anomaly, but total contents of rare earth elements are higher in North Hahn river sediments than South Hahn river sediments. The heavy minerals in the river bed sediments in this study area are identified as tremolite-actinolite, hematiteㆍmagnetite, common hornblende, ilmenite, garnet, epidote, rutile and sphene. In conclusion, it is elucidated that South and North Hahn river bed sediments are being originated from igneous rocks or metamorphic rocks which contains medium-high grade metamorphic minerals and components of originated from sedimentary rocks those of politic or calcareous rocks are eroded away as solution or suspended load.

Changes in proximate composition and meat weight of oysters cultured in shallow-water at Bukman bay of Tongyeong in Korea with Korean and Japanese spats were investigated. Protein content (dry basis) was rich in August and September, accounting for $70\~72\%$ in the oyster (Korean oyster) cultured with Korean spat and $75\~76\%$ in the oyster (Japanese oyster) cultured with Japanese spat. On the contrary to protein content, carbohydrate contents (dry basis) in the both oysters were poor in the both months, There was a negative correlation (r=-0.94, p<0.01) between protein and carbohydrate content during growing of the bath spats. Total lipid (TL) content was the poorest in August, which is known as spawning season, accounting for $1.4\~1.5\%$ in the both oysters. In addition, the korean oyster also showed the lowest level or TL content in october. Meat weights or the Korean and japanese oysterswere 4.2$\~$4.8 g/specimen and 7.5$\~$8.3 g/specimen, respectively, in the harvest season from November to December. Meat weight increased exponentially with TL content, $y=0,2081e^{1.5696x}$ (r=0.8856, p<0.001). These nutritional components per specimen were contained about two times more in the Japanese oyster than in the Korean one in the harvest period.

Borehole elemental concentration logging, measuring neutron-induced gamma rays by inelastic scattering and neutron capture interactions between neutron and formation, delivers concentrations of the most common elements found in the minerals and fluids of subsurface formation. X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence analysis from core samples are traditionally used to understand formation composition and mineralogy, but it represents only part of formations. Additionally, it is difficult to obtain elemental analysis over the whole intervals because of poor core recovery zones such as fractures or sand layers mainly responsible for groundwater flow. The development of borehole technique for in situ elemental analysis plays a key role in assessing subsurface environment. Although this technology has advanced consistently starting from conventional and unconventional resources evaluation, it has been considered as exclusive techniques of some major service company. As regards domestic research and development, it has still remained an unexplored field because of some barriers such as the deficiency of detailed information on tools and calibration facility for chemistry and mineralogy database. This article reviews the basic theory of spectroscopy measurements, system configuration, calibration facility, and current status. In addition, this article introduces the domestic researches and self-development status on borehole elemental concentration tools.

Free and bound lipids of both inner and outer part in the edible portion of 3 varieties of chestnuts(Castanea crenata) were extracted and fractionated into neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid, by silicic acid column chromatography. Fatty acid composition of each fraction was examined with gas chromatography. Lipid contents in chestnut on dry weight basis were 1.84% in inner part(1.26%-free lipid and 0. 58% bound lipid) and 1.95% in outer part (1.63%-free lipid and 0.32%-bound lipid). Free lipid content was $2{\sim}5$ times higher than bound lipid content and was more abundant in the outer part. Neutral lipid content of the free lipid in the inner part was 39.5%, approximately 10 times as much as that of the bound lipid, but in the outer part, the former was 56.6%. Glycolipid content was 22. 0% in the free lipid and 17.0% in the bound lipid. Phospholipid content was 6.9% in the free lipid and 10.5% in the bound lipid. The predominant fatty acids were linoleic acid, palmitic acid and linolenic acid in the free lipid, and palmitic acid, linoleic arid and linolenic acid in the bound lipid, Therefore, saturated fatty acid content in the bound lipid was 2 times higher than in the free lipid.

This review showed a discussion on the biofunctional activities of citrus flavonoids. The major flavonoids of citrus species, hesperidin, hesperetin, naringin, and naringenin, were selected to evaluate their biological effects on the lipid metabolism in rats and hamsters, the proliferation of human hepatocyte HepG2 cells, and the antioxidative effect in lipid peroxidation models. These flavonoids showed hypotriglyceridemic effect in hamsters and hypochloesterolemic effect in rats. They also significantly inhibited the activities of phosphatidate phophohydrolase and acyl-CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase, which are key enzymes for biosynthesis of triglyceride and cholesterol, repectively, in vivo and in vitro experiments. These biofunctional activities by citrus flavonoids were shown more potent in the aglycone flavonoids, hespreretin and naringenin, than their corresponding glycoside flavonoids, hesperidin and naringin. These aglycone flavonoids also have inhibitory effects on proliferation of human hepatocyte cancer HepG2 cells. Hesperidin showed lowering activities of cellular triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations in HepG2 cells. Citrus flavonoids have significant importance in functional food industry as biofunctional active ingredients.

In order to elucidate the effect of dietary n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3HUFA) on the changes of body weight and chemical compositions in the Korean rockfish during starvation, the fish were not fed for 9 weeks after fed different levels $(0\~1.5\%)$ of n-3 HUFA for 10 weeks. The higher level of n-3HUF A was contained in the diets, the slower body weight loss was resulted (P< 0.05). The decreasing rates of the body nutrients of the fish were significantly higher in the fish fed n-3HUF A deficient diets than those of the fish fed n-3 HUF A sufficient diets. Protein and lipid contents of the whole body were decreased with starvation whereas moisture content was increased. Decrease of lipid was mainly due to the decrease of nonpolar lipid. Amounts of polar lipid in the whole body were almost constant throughout the starvation, meaning not being affected by dietary n-3HUF A levels. Percentage of 22: 6n-3 was increased in the polar lipid fraction, but monoenic acids (16:1, 18:1), n-3 series (18:3, 18 4, 20:4) and n-6 series (20:2, 22:4, 22:5) were decreased with starvation. Fatty acid compositions of nonpolar lipid were not changed with starvation. These results suggest that all fatty acids of nonpolar lipid are equally utilized for energy during starvation.
