  • In this study, the concentrations of major reduced sulfur compounds (RSC: $H_{2}S,\;CH_{3}SH$, DMS, $CS_2$ and DMDS) were determined from various emission sources of individual companies located within the Ban Wal industrial complex of Ansan city, Korea. We investigated the emission concentration levels of RSC from a total of 47 individual companies during June 2004 to January 2005. The results of our study indicate that the emission concentration levels of RSC vary in a highly complicated manner in relation with industrial sectors and emission source types. It was found that both $H_{2}S\;and\;CH_{3}SH$ make the highest contribution to nuisance in the leather industry. Likewise, DMS showed its maximum contribution from food production sector, while DMDS for chemical production sector. When the emission data sets were compared between different emission sources, regardless of industrial types or activities, $H_{2}S\;and\;CH_{3}SH$ concentrations were seen most significant at waste treatment process. The overall results of our study suggest that the emission concentrations of sulfur compounds can be used to distinguish different sources of malodor released by different industrial activities.

  • Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the anti-depressive effects of BanHaHuBakTang-kami (BHHBT) on an animal model of depression induced by chronic immobility stress. Methods: Mice were treated daily with immobilization stress for 2 hours over a period of 21 days. To examine the effect of BHHBT, we performed behavioral, biochemical and histological analysis to measure immobility time (FST), brain neurotransmitter concentration (HPLC, ELISA), hippocampal damage (H&E staining) and CRF-R1 expression (immunohistochemistry). Results: BHHBT has reduced the immobility time of immobilization stress exposed mice in the forced swimming test. BHHBT has increased the amount of serotonin in the brain. BHHBT has increased the expression level of serotonin in the brain. BHHBT 540 mg/kg were sufficient to prevent tissue damage in the hippocampus region. BHHBT has reduced the expression level of CRF receptors in the hippocampus region. Conclusions: These results suggest that BHHBT may have anti-depressive effects on mice treated with immobilization stress by reducing immobility, increasing brain serotonin concentration and reducing CRF-R1 expression in the hippocampus region.

  • Objectives : Zheng Zhi Xin Chuan(證治心傳) is a compact compilation of 14 discussions on medicine, written by Yuan Ban(袁班) in the late Ming-early Qing period. Methods : To survey the scholarly position of Yuan Ban(袁班) in the history of Wenbing by systematically analyzing and organizing Wenbing related theories in Zheng Zhi Xin Chuan (證治心傳). Results & Conclusions : In his book, YB suggests concepts such as 'mainly attack upper heater(多犯上焦)', 'transmission to the nutrient phase(轉入營分)', 'sequential transmission(順傳)', 'abnormal transmission(逆傳)', 'dryness invasion of human body in autumn(秋傷於燥)'. In the history of Wenbing, it has been widely acknowledged that the concept of weiqiyingxiebianzheng(衛氣營血辨證) and abnormal transmission to the pericardium(逆傳心包) were originally suggested by Ye Tianshi(葉天士). However, according to the findings of this study, these concepts are traced back to the contents of YB's publication, nearly a century before Ye's time. In addition, YB's discussion on '秋燥' was highly advanced than any other scholar of his time, hinting his influence on medicine thereafter.
