A ${\alpha}-galactosidase{\;}({\alpha}-D-galactoside$ galactohydrolase; EC 3.2.1.22) was purified from the culture filtrate of Penicillium purpurogenum by DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, gel filtration of Bio gel p-l00, and subsequent SP-Sephadex C-25 chromatography. The final preparation thus obtained showed a single band on polyacrylamide disc-gel and SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The molecular weight and isoelectric point were determined to be 63,000 and pH 4.0 by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing, respectively. The galactosidase exhibited maximum activity at pH 4.5 and $55^{\circ}C$, and was stable between pH 2 and 5, and also stable up to $40^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was not affected considerably by treatment with other metal compounds except mercuric chloride and silver nitrate. Copra galactomannan was finally hydrolyzed to galactose, mannose and mannobiose through the sequential actions of the purified galactosidase and mannanase from the same strain. The enzyme hydrolyzed melibiose and raffinose, but not lactose.

This research aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity of Lycoris radiata. The methanol extract and solvent fractions from L. radiata exhibited antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Helicobactor pylori. Open-column chromatography was used to isolate phytochemical constituents from L. radiata; spectroscopic analysis elucidated their structures as ${\beta}$-sitosterol (1), daucosterol (2), O-methyllycorenine (3), lycorenine (4), lycoricidinol (5), lycorine (6), and lycoricidine (7). Further testing of compounds 1 - 7 revealed antibacterial effects against E. coli, S. aureus, and H. pylori, which suggested the potential of these substances as antibacterial agents. We determined that compounds 1 and 2, isolated from the n-hexane fraction, were more effective against S. aureus and H. pylori. Compound 4, isolated from the methylene chloride fraction, exhibited noticeable antibacterial effects against E. coli. This study is the first report on the antibacterial activities of phytochemical constituents from L. radiata against E. coli, S. aureus, and H. pylori.

This paper presents an analysis on the initial ignoring time of SCW type GHX using Mean Square Error method. Line source method is a useful method for estimating the ground thermal conductivity for the vertical type and SCW type GHX in Korea. The line source method for ground thermal conductivity of geothermal in-site test is the basis of linear approximation between the temperature of a borehole and logarithmic time in a GHX. To apply the line source method to the estimation of SCW type GHX, it is necessary to ignore the initial time of data at the stage of a linear approximation. This paper proposed a new initial ignoring time of SCW type GHX among various initial ignoring time at the time for reaching MSE of $0.02^{\circ}C^2$.

The mode of transglycosylation reaction observed during the action of low-molecular-weigh $\beta$-D-glucosidase ($\beta$-D-glucoside glucohydrolase, EC3.2.1.21) purified from Trichoderma koningii ATCC 26113 was investigated using $^{1}H$-NMR spectroscopy. The enzyme was purified by the series of procedures including ammonium sulfate precipitation, and fractionations by column chromatographies on Bio-Gel P-150, DEAE-Sephadex A-50, and SP-Sephadex C-50. The final purification was performed by the band eluation after preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme showed its molecular size of 78,000 through the analysis of sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its isoelectric point of 5.80 through the analysis of analytical isoelectric focusing. The H-1 proton resonances were analyzed. After the reaction of the enzyme with cellobiose, the reaction products were separated by high performance liquid chromatography using refractive index detector. H-1 resonances of the products were consisted with those of gentiobiose [$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl--(1,6)-D-glucopyranose], and cellotriose [$\beta$-D glucopyranosyl-(1,4)-$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl]-(1,4)-D-glucopyranose] with minor resonances of sophorose [$\beta$-D-glucopyranosyl-(1,2)-D-glucopyranose], respectively.

Myrosinase from Korean cabbage(Bogdoli) was purified and its enzymatic properties were investigated. Myrosinase from the Korean cabbage was purified by DEAE Bio-Gel Sepharose, Concanavalin-A, and Mono-Q column chromatography and exhibited a 55KD molecular weight with a single band on the gel of SDS-PAGE. The enzyme was purified about 21-fold compared to its crude enzyme and a specific activity of purified enzyme was 15, 120units/mg. Optimum pH of the myrosinase was 7.0 in both phosphate and Tris-HCl buffer solutions, the enzyme was stable at pH 6.5~7.0. Optimum temperature of enzyme was 37~38$^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity was significantly inhibited by Cu2+ and Hg2+, but enhanced by ascorbic acid, resulting in a maximum activity at 1mM ascorbic acid. Among the ascorbic acid analogues, dehydro-ascorbic acid did not affect, whereas others showed a little effect on the enzyme activity, but less than ascorbic acid itself. Reducing agents such as 2-mercaptoethanol and dithiothreitol had no effect on the enzyme activity, but the enzyme activity was enhanced when 2-mercaptoethanol was mixed with ascorbic acid.

A plant growth-promoting substance, FM001, was isolated from the culture broth of Acremonium strictum MJN1. The purification steps included solvent extraction, adsorption chromatography using Diaion HP20, TLC on silica, and HLPC using a C-18 column. The purified FM001 enhanced rice seedling growth by $11.1\%\;and\;34.0\%$ of the dried weight of the shoots and roots, and also radish growth by $26.5\%\;and\;23.7\%$ of the top length and dried weight. FM001 also significantly promoted the growth of red pepper by increasing $32.7\%$ of fruit weight and $11.3\%$ as regards the height. FM001 consisted of C, H, O, N, and S, and its molecular weight was determined to be 537.78 Da. The structure of FM001 resembled brassinosteriods, and it would appear to have great potential as an effective bio-fertilizer.

Cordyceps bassiana is one of Cordyceps species with anti-oxidative, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, anti-obesity, anti-angiogenic, and anti-nociceptive activities. This mushroom has recently demonstrated to have an ability to reduce 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene-induced atopic dermatitis symptoms in NC/Nga mice. In this study, we further examined phytochemical properties of this mushroom by column chromatography and HPLC analysis. By chromatographic separation and spectroscopic analysis, 8 compounds, such as 1,9-dimethylguanine (1), adenosine (2), uridine (3), nicotinamide (4), 3-methyluracil (5), 1,7-dimethylxanthine (6), nudifloric acid (7), and mannitol (8) were identified from 6 different fractions and 4 more subfractions. Through evaluation of their anti-inflammatory activities using reporter gene assay and mRNA analysis, compound 1 was found to block luciferase activity induced by $NF-{\kappa}B$ and AP-1, suppress the mRNA levels of cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 and tumor necrosis factor $(TNF)-{\alpha}$. Therefore, our data strongly suggests that compound 1 acts as one of major principles in Cordyceps bassiana with anti-inflammatory and anti-atopic dermatitis activities.

The seasonal effects on the biostability of drinking water were investigated by comparing the seasonal variation of assimilable organic carbon (AOC) in full-scale water treatment process and adsorption of AOC by three filling materials in lab-scale column test. In full-scale, pre-chlorination and ozonation significantly increase $AOC_{P17\;(Pseudomonas\;fluorescens\;P17)}$ and $AOC_{NOX\;(Aquaspirillum\;sp.\;NOX)}$, respectively. AOC formation by oxidation could increase with temperature, but the increased AOC could affect the biostability of the following processes more significantly in winter than in warm seasons due to the low biodegradation in the pipes and the processes at low temperature. $AOC_{P17}$ was mainly removed by coagulation-sedimentation process, especially in cold season. Rapid filtration could effectively remove AOC only during warm seasons by primarily biodegradation, but biological activated carbon filtration could remove AOC in all seasons by biodegradation during warm season and by adsorption and bio-regeneration during cold season. The adsorption by granular activated carbon and anthracite showed inverse relationship with water temperature. The advanced treatment can contribute to enhance the biostability in the distribution system by reducing AOC formation potential and helping to maintain stable residual chlorine after post-chlorination.
