  • 본 연구는 낙동강의 최상류 8개 지점을 대상으로 1999년 $6{\sim}8$월까지 어류군집을 이용한 전통적인 종다양도 지수(H')와 IBI 지수를 통한 생태 건강도 평가를 비교하였다. 채집된 총 종수는 19종이었고, 우점종은 갈겨니와 버들치로써 각각 51%, 28%를 차지하였다. 트로픽 길드 분석에 따르면, 전체 채집된 종에서 충식종이 87%였고, 잡식종의 빈도는 극히 낮게 나타났다. 종다양도 지수에 의한 공간적인 변이의 패턴은 종수와 개체수의 패턴과 유사했지만, 내성도 및 트로픽길드 자료에 의한 패턴과는 상당한 차이를 보였다. 종다양도 지수는 지점 6에서 1.56으로 최대치를 보였으며, 민감종과 내성종은 각각 최소, 최대값을 보였다. 한편, 지점 6에서 충식종과 잡식종이 각각 최소, 최대치를 보였다. 즉 종다양도 지수는 내성도 길드 및 트로픽 길드의 패턴과 어떤 유사성도 없으며, 전통적인 지수는 수계내에서의 어류군집의 전반적인 생태학적 특성들을 잘 반영할 수 없었다. 한편, 생태건강도 (IBI)의 평균 모델값은 33.5(n=8)로써 보통${\sim}$양호상태로 나타났고, 트로픽 길드 및 내성도 길드의 패턴과 유사하게 나타났다. 민감종과 충식종이 거의 최대치를 보인 2지점에서 IBI간은 최대치를 보였으며, 동일지점에서 내성종과 잡식종의 빈도는 최저치를 보였다. 이런 결과는 IBI 값이 생태학적인 기능과 건강상태에 밀접히 연관되어 있다는 것을 제시하는 바이다. 본 연구에서 전통적인 종 다양도 지수는 어류를 이용한 생태건강도 군집평가에 비효율적인 반면, IBI를 이용한 접근방식은 하천구조를 잘 진단할 수 있는 유용한 척도가 될 수 있음을 시사하는 바이다.

  • Vibrio 속에 속한 세균에 의한 식중독은 오염된 해산물 식품의 섭취로 인하여 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 그러므로 해산물을 날것으로 섭취하는 한국인의 특성을 고려할 때, 빠르고 정확한 Vibrio 검출기술은 식품위생 및 공중보건의 측면에서 매우 중요하다. 이와 관련하여 본 연구에서는 전통적인 배지를 이용한 동정방법의 단점을 보완할 수 있는 생화학적 방법인 Vitek 2 system방법과 분자생물학적 방법인 species-specific PCR 방법을 사용하여 얻은 동정결과를 비교 평가하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 5개의 Vibrio 표준균주와 16S rRNA gene sequencing 결과에 의하여 Vibrio 속으로 확인된 24개의 분리균주가 이용되었다. Vitek 2 system방법을 이용한 경우, 이와 같이 본 연구에 사용된 29개 균주 중 Vibrio 표준균주 2개(2/5, 40%), 16S rRNA gene sequencing 결과 Vibrio 속으로 확인된 분리균주 15개(15/24, 62.5%) 등의 총 17개 균주(17/29, 58.6%)가 Vibrio 종으로 동정되었다. 그리고 species-specific PCR방법을 이용한 경우, 위의 29개 균주 중 Vibrio 표준균주 5개(5/5, 100%), 16S rRNA gene sequencing 결과 Vibrio 속으로 확인된 분리균주 16개(16/24, 66.7%) 등의 총 21개 균주(21/29, 72.5%)가 Vibrio 종으로 동정되었다. Vitek 2 system방법과 species-specific PCR방법을 이용하여 동정된 결과를 비교하였을 때 표준균주 중 V. parahaemolyticus, V. mimicus 등의 2개(2/5, 40%), 새우분리균주 24개 중에서 16S rRNA gene sequencing 결과 Vibrio 속으로 확인된 분리균주 7개 (7/24, 29.2%) 등의 총 9개(9/29, 31%) 균주들에 대한 동정결과만이 일치하였다.

  • 본 연구는 경기도 파주시에 위치한 파평산의 관속식물상 조사를 위하여 수행하였으며, 이를 토대로 고유종, 희귀 및 멸종 식물, 적색식물, 기후변화적응대상 식물, 귀화식물을 조사하였다. 2016년 4월부터2019년 6월까지 총13회에 걸쳐 현지조사를 실시한 결과 91과 257속 361종 9아종 36변종 4품종으로 총410 분류군이 확인되었다. 과별로 보면 국화과(46분류군), 벼과(31분류군), 장미과(27분류군), 콩과(18분류군) 순으로 높게 나타난다. 이 중 Chung 등이 지정한 특산식물은 9분류군, 환경부가 지정한 고유종은 6분류군이다. 희귀 및 멸종위기 식물은 IUCN 평가기준을 근거로 국립수목원이 지정한 멸종위기식물 13분류군이, 환경부가 지정한 적색자료집을 근거로 2분류군이 확인된다. 식물구계학적 특정식물은 IV등급 2분류군, III등급 13분류군, II등급 11분류군, I등급 20분류군으로 총 46분류군이다. Lee (1976)에 따른 자원식물은 식용 182분류군(44.39%), 목초용 166분류군(40.49%), 약용 138분류군(33.65%), 관상용 53분류군(12.93%), 목재용 22분류군(5.37%), 다용도 11분류군(2.68%), 섬유용 6분류군(1.46%), 산업용 1분류군(0.24%) 순이며, 산림청 지정 자원식물은 식용 293분류군(71.46%), 산업용 186분류군(45.37%), 다용도 173분류군(42.20%), 의약용 125분류군(30.48%), 유해성 식물 84분류군(20.49%), 향료 16분류군(3.9%)순이다. 기후변화 적응대상식물은 7분류군이 확인되었으며, 귀화식물은 27분류군으로 귀화율6.58%, 도시화지수 8.43%를 나타내었다. 본 파평산 일대의 조사로 본 결과는 파주 북부의 DMZ 접경 지역의 자연환경 및 자연자원의 조사 및 보존에 필요한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 증거표본을 기준으로 하여 관속식물 목록을 작성하였기 때문에 조사과정에서 누락되었을 가능성을 고려하면 파평산의 관속식물의 다양성은 더 높아질 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 조사 연구를 통해 최근 높은 빈도로 발생하는 산불의 예방, 인위적 간섭에 의한 외래식물의 침입 및 산림훼손의 방지 등을 더 정확히 파악하고, 그를 활용할 더욱 적극적이고 다양한 노력이 필요할 것이다.

  • A review on the papers published in the Korean Journal of Air-Conditioning and Refrigerating Engineering in 2002 and 2003 has been carried out. Focus has been put on current status of research in the aspect of heating, cooling, air-conditioning, ventilation, sanitation and building environment/design. The conclusions are as follows. (1) Most of fundamental studies on fluid flow were related with heat transportation in diverse facilities. Drop formation and rivulet flow on solid surfaces were interesting topics related with condensation augmentation. Research on micro environment considering flow, heat transfer, humidity was also interesting to promote comfortable living environment. It can be extended considering biological aspects. Development of fans and blowers of high performance and low noise were continuing research topics. Well developed CFD technologies were widely applied for analysis and design of various facilities and their systems. (2) Heat transfer characteristics of enhanced finned tube heat exchangers and heat sinks were extensively investigated. Experimental studies on the boiling heat transfer, vortex generators, fluidized bed heat exchangers, and frosting and defrosting characteristics were also conducted. In addition, the numerical simulations on various heat exchangers were performed and reported to show heat transfer characteristics and performance of the heat exchanger. (3) A review of the recent studies shows that the performance analysis of heat pump have been made by various simulations and experiments. Progresses have been made specifically on the multi-type heat pump systems and other heat pump systems in which exhaust energy is utilized. The performance characteristics of heat pipe have been studied numerically and experimentally, which proves the validity of the developed simulation programs. The effect of various factors on the heat pipe performance has also been examined. Studies of the ice storage system have been focused on the operational characteristics of the system and on the basics of thermal storage materials. Researches into the phase change have been carried out steadily. Several papers deal with the cycle analysis of a few thermodynamic systems which are very useful in the field of air-conditioning and refrigeration. (4) Recent studies on refrigeration and air-conditioning systems have focused on the system performance and efficiency enhancement when new alternative refrigerants are applied. Heat transfer characteristics during evaporation and condensation are investigated for several tube shapes and new alternative refrigerants including natural refrigerants. Efficiency of various compressors and performance of new expansion devices are also dealt with for better design of refrigeration/air conditioning system. In addition to the studies related with thermophysical properties of refrigerant mixtures, studies on new refrigerants are also carried out. It should be noted that the researches on two-phase flow are constantly carried out. (5) A review of the recent studies on absorption refrigeration system indicates that heat and mass transfer enhancement is the key factor in improving the system performance. Various experiments have been carried out and diverse simulation models have been presented. Study on the small scale absorption refrigeration system draws a new attention. Cooling tower was also the research object in the respect of enhancement its efficiency, and performance analysis and optimization was carried out. (6) Based on a review of recent studies on indoor thermal environment and building service systems, it is noticed that research issues have mainly focused on several innovative systems such as personal environmental modules, air-barrier type perimeterless system with UFAC, radiant floor cooling system, etc. New approaches are highlighted for improving indoor environmental conditions and minimizing energy consumption, various activities of building energy management and cost-benefit analysis for economic evaluation.

  • 본 연구는 한반도 기후변화 적응 대상식물을 대상으로 기후변화에 따른 종풍부도 변화를 예측해 보고자 하였다. 대상종은 한반도 기후변화 적응 대상식물 중에서 특산식물 23종, 북방계식물 30종 그리고 남방계식물 36종으로 총 89종을 선정하였다. 기후변화에 따른 개별 종의 잠재서식지를 예측하여 합산하는 방식으로 종풍부도 변화를 예측하였다. 개별 종의 잠재서식지는 10개의 종분포모형 알고리즘을 함께 고려하는 앙상블모형을 구축하였다. 미래 예측 시기는 기후변화 시나리오 RCP4.5와 RCP8.5를 선정하여 2050년과 2070년을 예측하였다. 현재의 종풍부도는 국립공원, 강원도 백두대간 지역 그리고 남해 도서지역을 중심으로 높게 나타났다. 미래 예측 결과, 기존에 높은 종풍부도를 보였던 국립공원과 강원도 백두대간 지역은 낮아졌고 남해안 내륙지역은 보다 더 높아졌다. 종풍부도의 평균값을 비교해 보면 현재 기준으로 국립공원 지역이 남한 전체지역보다 높으면서 큰 차이를 보였다. 하지만 기후변화에 따라서 국립공원 지역과 남한 전체지역의 차이가 줄어들었다. 특산식물과 북방계식물의 다수가 남한지역에서 사라지고 남방계식물이 북상하면서 이와 같은 결과를 보였다. 하지만 적합한 서식지로 이주가 이루어지지 않으면 종풍부도가 급격하게 감소하였다. 분산가능성의 가정에 따라 결과가 다르게 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 보전 계획 수립, 보호 지역 설정, 생물종 복원 그리고 기후변화 대응 전략 및 관리 방안 등에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • The pharmacological and microbiological studies of Cefoperazone (T-1551, Toyama Chemical Co., Japan) were conducted in vitro and in vivo. The studies included stability and physicochemical characteristics, antimicrobial activity, animal and human pharmacokinetics, animal pharmacodynamics and safety evaluation of Cefoperazone sodium for injection. 1) Stability and physicochemical characteristics. Sodium salt of cefoperazone for injection had a general appearance of white crystalline powder which contained 0.5% water, and of which melting point was $187.2^{\circ}C$. The pH's of 10% and 25% aqueous solutions were 5.03 ana 5.16 at $25^{\circ}C$. The preparations of cefoperazone did not contain any pyrogenic substances and did not liberate histamine in cats. The drug was highly compatible with common infusion solutions including 5% Dextrose solution and no significant potency decrease was observed in 5 hours after mixing. Powdered cefoperazone sodium contained in hermetically sealed and ligt-shielded container was highly stable at $4^circ}C{\sim}37^{\circ}C$ for 12 weeks. When stored at $4^{\circ}C$ the potency was retained almost completely for up to one year. 2) Antimicrobial activity against clinical isolates. Among the 230 clinical isolates included, Salmonella typhi was the most susceptible to cefoperazone, with 100% inhibition at MIC of ${\leq}0.5{\mu}g/ml$. Cefoperazone was also highly active against Streptococcus pyogenes(group A), Kletsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Shigella flexneri, with 100% inhibition at $16{\mu}g/ml$ or less. More than 80% of Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes and Salmonella paratyphi was inhibited at ${\leq}16{\mu}/ml$, while Enterobacter cloaceae, Serratia marcescens and Pseudomonas aerogenosa were somewhat less sensitive to cefoperagone, with inhibitions of 60%, 55% and 35% respectively at the same MIC. 3) Animal pharmacokinetics Serum concentration, organ distritution and excretion of cefoperazone in rats were observed after single intramuscular injections at doses of 20 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg. The extent of protein binding to human plasma protein was also measured in vitro br equilibrium dialysis method. The mean Peak serum concentrations of $7.4{\mu}g/ml$ and $16.4{\mu}/ml$ were obtained at 30 min. after administration of cefoperazone at doses of 20 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg respectively. The tissue concentrations of cefoperazone measured at 30 and 60 min. were highest in kidney. And the concentrations of the drug in kidney, liver and small intestine were much higher than in blood. Urinary and fecal excretion over 24 hours after injetcion ranged form 12.5% to 15.0% in urine and from 19.6% to 25.0% in feces, indicating that the gastrointestinal system is more important than renal system for the excretion of cefoperazone. The extent of binding to human plasma protein measured by equilibrium dialysis was $76.3%{\sim}76.9%$, which was somewhat lower than the others utilizing centrifugal ultrafiltration method. 4) Animal pharmacodynamics Central nervous system : Effects of cefoperazone on the spontaneous movement and general behavioral patterns of rats, the pentobarbital sleeping time in mice and the body temperature in rabbits were observed. Single intraperitoneal injections at doses of $500{\sim}2,000mg/kg$ in rats did not affect the spontaneous movement ana the general behavioral patterns of the animal. Doses of $125{\sim}500mg/kg$ of cefoperazone injected intraperitonealy in mice neither increased nor decreased the pentobarbital-induced sleeping time. In rabbits the normal body temperature was maintained following the single intravenous injections of $125{\sim}2,000mg/kg$ dose. Respiratory and circulatory system: Respiration rate, blood pressure, heart rate and ECG of anesthetized rabbits were monitored for 3 hours following single intravenous injections of cefoperazone at doses of $125{\sim}2,000mg/kg$. The respiration rate decreased by $3{\sim}l7%$ at all the doses of cefoperazone administered. Blood pressure did not show any changes but slight decrease from 130/113 to 125/107 by the highest dose(2,000 mg/kg) injected in this experiment. The dosages of 1,000 and 2,000 mg/kg seemed to slightly decrease the heart rate, but it was not significantly different from the normal control. All the doses of cefoperazone injected were not associated with any abnormal changes in ECG findings throughout the monitering period. Autonomic nervous system and smooth muscle: Effects of cefoperazone on the automatic movement of rabbit isolated small intestine, large intestine, stomach and uterus were observed in vitro. The autonomic movement and tonus of intestinal smooth muscle increased at dose of $40{\mu}g/ml$ in small intestine and at 0.4 mg/ml in large intestine. However, in stomach and uterine smooth muscle the autonomic movement was slightly increased by the much higher doses of 5-10 mg/ml. Blood: In vitro osmotic fragility of rabbit RBC suspension was not affected by cefoperazone of $1{\sim}10mg/ml$. Doses of 7.5 and 10 mg/ml were associated with 11.8% and 15.3% prolongation of whole blood coagulation time. Liver and kidney function: When measured at 3 hours after single intravenous injections of cefoperaonze in rabbits, the values of serum GOT, GPT, Bilirubin, TTT, BUN and creatine were not significantly different from the normal control. 5) Safety evaluation Acute toxicity: The acute toxicity of cefoperazone was studied following intraperitoneal and intravenous injections to mice(A strain, 4 week old) and rats(Sprague-Dawler, 6 week old). The LD_(50)'s of intraperitonealy injected cefoperazone were 9.7g/kg in male mice, 9.6g/kg in female mice and over 15g/kg in both male and female rats. And when administered intravenously in rats, LD_(50)'s were 5.1g/kg in male and 5.0g/kg in female. Administrations of the high doses of the drug were associated with slight inhibition of spontaneous movement and convulsion. Atdominal transudate and intestinal hyperemia were observed in animals administered intraperitonealy. In rats receiving high doses of the drug intravenously rhinorrhea and pulmonary congestion and edema were also observed. Renal proximal tubular epithelial degeneration was found in animals dosing in high concentrations of cefoperazone. Subacute toxicity: Rats(Sprague-Dawley, 6 week old) dosing 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 g/kg/day of cefoperazone intraperitonealy were observed for one month and sacrificed at 24 hours after the last dose. In animals with a high dose, slight inhibition of spontaneous movement was observed during the experimental period. Soft stool or diarrhea appeared at first or second week of the administration in rats receiving 2.0g/kg. Daily food consumption and weekly weight gain were similar to control during the administration. Urinalysis, blood chemistry and hematology after one month administration were not different from control either. Cecal enlargement, which is an expected effect of broad spectrum antibiotic altering the normal intestinal microbial flora, was observed. Intestinal or peritoneal congestion and peritonitis were found. These findings seemed to be attributed to the local irritation following prolonged intraperitoneal injections of hypertonic and acidic cefoperazone solution. Among the histopathologic findings renal proximal tubular epithelial degeneration was characteristic in rats receiving 1 and 2g/kg/day, which were 10 and 20 times higher than the maximal clinical dose (100 mg/kg) of the drug. 6) Human pharmacokinetics Serum concentrations and urinary excretion were determined following a single intravenous injection of 1g cefoperazone in eight healthy, male volunteers. Mean serum concentrations of 89.3, 61.3, 26.6, 12.3, 2.3, and $1.8{\mu}g/ml$ occured at 1,2,4,6,8 and 12 hours after injection respectively, and the biological half-life was 108 minutes. Urinary excretion over 24 hours after injection was up to 43.5% of administered dose.

  • The research conducted here focuses on the effect of factors that affect the behavior of UCC (User Created Content) website users, other than user's rational recognition of how useful a UCC website can be. Most discussions in the existing literature on information systems have focused on users' evaluation how a UCC website can help to attain the users' own goals. However, there are other factors and this research pays attention to an individual's 'personality,' which is stable and biological in nature. Specifically, I have noted here that 'extroversion' and 'neuroticism,' the two common personality factors presented in Eysenck's most representative 'EPQ Model' and 'Big Five Model,' are the two personality factors that affect a site's 'usefulness,' by this I mean how useful does the user consider the website and its content. How useful a site is considered by the user is the other factor that has been regarded as the antecedent factor that influences the adoption of information systems in the existing MIS (Management Information System) research. Secondly, as using or creating a UCC website does not guarantee the user's or the creator's extrinsic motivation, unlike when using the information system within an organization, there is a greater likelihood that the increase in user's activities in relation to a UCC website is motivated by emotional factors rather than rational factors. Thus, I have decided to include the relationship between an individual's personality and what they find pleasurable in the research model. Thirdly, when based on the S-O-R Paradigm of Mehrabian and Russell, the two cognitive factors and emotional factors are finally affected by stimulus, and thus these factors ultimately have an effect on an individual's respondent behavior. Therefore, this research has presented an assumption that the recognition of how useful the site and content is and what emotional pleasure it provides will finally affect the behavior of the UCC website users. Finally, the relationship between the recognition of how useful a site is and how pleasurable it is to useand UCC usage may differ depending on certain situational conditions. In other words, the relationship between the three factors may vary according to how much users are involved in the creation of the website content. Creation thus emerges as the keyword of UCC. I analyzed the above relationships through the moderating variable of the user's involvement in the creation of the site. The research result shows the following: When it comes to the relationship between an individual's personality and what they find pleasurable it is extroverted users who have a greater likelihood to feel pleasure when using a UCC website, as was expected in this research. This in turn leads to a more active usage of the UCC web site because a person who is an extrovert likes to spend time on activities with other people, is sensitive to new experiences and stimuli and thus actively responds to these. An extroverted person accepts new UCC activities as part of his/her social life, rather than getting away from this new UCC environment. This is represented by the term 'Foxonomy' where the users meet a variety of users from all over the world and contact new types of content created by these users. However, neuroticism creates the opposite situation to that created by extroversion. The representative symptoms of neuroticism are instability, stress, and tension. These dispositions are more closely related to stress caused by a new environment rather than this creatingcuriosity or pleasure. Thus, neurotic persons have an uneasy feeling and will eventually avoid the situation where their own or others' daily lives are frequently exposed to the open web environment, this eventually makes them have a negative attitude towards the web environment. When it comes to an individual's personality and how useful site is, the two personality factors of extroversion and neuroticism both have a positive relationship with the recognition of how useful the site and its content is. The positive, curious, and social dispositions of extroverted persons tend to make them consider the future usefulness and possibilities of a new type of information system, or website, based on their positive attitude, which has a significant influence on the recognition of how useful these UCC sites are. Neuroticism also favorably affects how useful a UCC website can be through a different mechanism from that of extroversion. As the neurotic persons tend to feel uneasy and have much doubt about a new type of information system, they actively explore its usefulness in order to relieve their uncomfortable feelings. In other words, neurotic persons seek out how useful a site can be in order to secure their own stable feelings. Meanwhile, extroverted persons explore how useful a site can be because of their positive attitude and curiosity. As a lot of MIS research has revealed that the recognition of how useful a site can be and how pleasurable it can be to use have been proven to have a significant effect on UCC activity. However, the relationship between these factors reveals different aspects based on the user's involvement in creation. This factor of creationgauges the interest of users in the creation of UCC contents. Involvement is a variable that shows the level of an individual's mental effort in creating UCC contents. When a user is highly involved in the creation process and makes an enormous effort to create UCC content (classed a part of a high-involvement group), their own pleasure and recognition of how useful the site is have a significantly higher effect on the future usage of the UCC contents, more significantly than the users who sit back and just retrieve the UCC content created by others. The cognitive and emotional response of those in the low-involvement group is unlikely to last long,even if they recognize the contents of a UCC website is pleasurable and useful to them. However, the high-involvement group tends to participate in the creation and the usage of UCC more favorably, connecting the experience with their own goals. In this respect, this research presents an answer to the question; why so many people are participating in the usage of UCC, the representative form of the Web 2.0 that has drastically involved more and more people in the creation of UCC, even if they cannot gain any monetary or social compensation. Neither information system nor a website can succeed unless it secures a certain level of user base. Moreover, it cannot be further developed when the reasons, or problems, for people's participation are not suitably explored, even if it has a certain user base. Thus, what is significant in this research is that it has studied users' respondent behavior based on an individual's innate personality, emotion, and cognitive interaction, unlike the existing research that has focused on 'compensation' to explain users' participation with the UCC website. There are also limitations in this research. Firstly, I divided an individual's personality into extroversion and neuroticism; however, there are many other personal factors such as neuro-psychiatricism, which also needs to be analyzed for its influence on UCC activities. Secondly, as a UCC website comes in many types such as multimedia, Wikis, and podcasting, these types need to be included as a sub-category of the UCC websites and their relationship with personality, emotion, cognition, and behavior also needs to be analyzed.

  • Clubroot disease of crucifers has occurred since 1957. It has spread to the whole China, especially in the southwest and nourtheast where it causes 30-80% loss in some fields. The disease has being expanded in the recent years as seeds are imported and the floating seedling system practices. For its effective control, the Ministry of Agriculture of China set up a program in 2010 and a research team led by Dr. Yueqiu HE, Yunnan Agricultural University. The team includes 20 main reseachers of 11 universities and 5 institutions. After 5 years, the team has made a lot of progresses in disease occurrence regulation, resources collection, resistance identification and breeding, biological agent exploration, formulation, chemicals evaluation, and control strategy. About 1200 collections of local and commercial crucifers were identified in the field and by artificiall inoculation in the laboratories, 10 resistant cultivars were breeded including 7 Chinese cabbages and 3 cabbages. More than 800 antagostic strains were isolated including bacteria, stretomyces and fungi. Around 100 chemicals were evaluated in the field and greenhouse based on its control effect, among them, 6 showed high control effect, especially fluazinam and cyazofamid could control about 80% the disease. However, fluzinam has negative effect on soil microbes. Clubroot disease could not be controlled by bioagents and chemicals once when the pathogen Plasmodiophora brassicae infected its hosts and set up the parasitic relationship. We found the earlier the pathogent infected its host, the severer the disease was. Therefore, early control was the most effective. For Chinese cabbage, all controlling measures should be taken in the early 30 days because the new infection could not cause severe symptom after 30 days of seeding. For example, a biocontrol agent, Bacillus subtilis Strain XF-1 could control the disease 70%-85% averagely when it mixed with seedling substrate and was drenching 3 times after transplanting, i.e. immediately, 7 days, 14 days. XF-1 has been deeply researched in control mechanisms, its genome, and development and application of biocontrol formulate. It could produce antagonistic protein, enzyme, antibiotics and IAA, which promoted rhizogenesis and growth. Its The genome was sequenced by Illumina/Solexa Genome Analyzer to assembled into 20 scaffolds then the gaps between scaffolds were filled by long fragment PCR amplification to obtain complet genmone with 4,061,186 bp in size. The whole genome was found to have 43.8% GC, 108 tandem repeats with an average of 2.65 copies and 84 transposons. The CDSs were predicted as 3,853 in which 112 CDSs were predicted to secondary metabolite biosynthesis, transport and catabolism. Among those, five NRPS/PKS giant gene clusters being responsible for the biosynthesis of polyketide (pksABCDEFHJLMNRS in size 72.9 kb), surfactin(srfABCD, 26.148 kb, bacilysin(bacABCDE 5.903 kb), bacillibactin(dhbABCEF, 11.774 kb) and fengycin(ppsABCDE, 37.799 kb) have high homolgous to fuction confirmed biosynthesis gene in other strain. Moreover, there are many of key regulatory genes for secondary metabolites from XF-1, such as comABPQKX Z, degQ, sfp, yczE, degU, ycxABCD and ywfG. were also predicted. Therefore, XF-1 has potential of biosynthesis for secondary metabolites surfactin, fengycin, bacillibactin, bacilysin and Bacillaene. Thirty two compounds were detected from cell extracts of XF-1 by MALDI-TOF-MS, including one Macrolactin (m/z 441.06), two fusaricidin (m/z 850.493 and 968.515), one circulocin (m/z 852.509), nine surfactin (m/z 1044.656~1102.652), five iturin (m/z 1096.631~1150.57) and forty fengycin (m/z 1449.79~1543.805). The top three compositions types (contening 56.67% of total extract) are surfactin, iturin and fengycin, in which the most abundant is the surfactin type composition 30.37% of total extract and in second place is the fengycin with 23.28% content with rich diversity of chemical structure, and the smallest one is the iturin with 3.02% content. Moreover, the same main compositions were detected in Bacillus sp.355 which is also a good effects biocontol bacterial for controlling the clubroot of crucifer. Wherefore those compounds surfactin, iturin and fengycin maybe the main active compositions of XF-1 against P. brassicae. Twenty one fengycin type compounds were evaluate by LC-ESI-MS/MS with antifungal activities, including fengycin A $C_{16{\sim}C19}$, fengycin B $C_{14{\sim}C17}$, fengycin C $C_{15{\sim}C18}$, fengycin D $C_{15{\sim}C18}$ and fengycin S $C_{15{\sim}C18}$. Furthermore, one novel compound was identified as Dehydroxyfengycin $C_{17}$ according its MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectral data, which molecular weight is 1488.8480 Da and formula $C_{75}H_{116}N_{12}O_{19}$. The fengycin type compounds (FTCPs $250{\mu}g/mL$) were used to treat the resting spores of P. brassicae ($10^7/mL$) by detecting leakage of the cytoplasm components and cell destruction. After 12 h treatment, the absorbencies at 260 nm (A260) and at 280 nm (A280) increased gradually to approaching the maximum of absorbance, accompanying the collapse of P. brassicae resting spores, and nearly no complete cells were observed at 24 h treatment. The results suggested that the cells could be lyzed by the FTCPs of XF-1, and the diversity of FTCPs was mainly attributed to a mechanism of clubroot disease biocontrol. In the five selected medium MOLP, PSA, LB, Landy and LD, the most suitable for growth of strain medium is MOLP, and the least for strains longevity is the Landy sucrose medium. However, the lipopeptide highest yield is in Landy sucrose medium. The lipopeptides in five medium were analyzed with HPLC, and the results showed that lipopeptides component were same, while their contents from B. subtilis XF-1 fermented in five medium were different. We found that it is the lipopeptides content but ingredients of XF-1 could be impacted by medium and lacking of nutrition seems promoting lipopeptides secretion from XF-1. The volatile components with inhibition fungal Cylindrocarpon spp. activity which were collect in sealed vesel were detected with metheds of HS-SPME-GC-MS in eight biocontrol Bacillus species and four positive mutant strains of XF-1 mutagenized with chemical mutagens, respectively. They have same main volatile components including pyrazine, aldehydes, oxazolidinone and sulfide which are composed of 91.62% in XF-1, in which, the most abundant is the pyrazine type composition with 47.03%, and in second place is the aldehydes with 23.84%, and the third place is oxazolidinone with 15.68%, and the smallest ones is the sulfide with 5.07%.

  • 착상전기(着床前期}의 태아(胎兒)는 방사선(放射線)을 비롯한 많은 환경요인(環境要因)에 대하여 감수성(感受性)이 높은 개체(個體)임에도 불구하고 특히 이 시기는 임신부(姙娠婦)가 자각(自覺)적으로 임신을 감지할 수 없는 시기이기에 이러한 여러 환경유해요인으로부터 의도적으로 피할 수가 없다. 그러므로 착상전기의 영향을 충분히 검토한 후에 의료행위를 취할 것이며 이에 대한 방어(防禦)대책도 검토할 필요가 있다. 종래 까지 방사선에 대한 태아영향에 관한 많은 연구결과에 의하면 방사선 및 그 외의 유해요인에 대한 착상전기의 영향은 배사망(胚死亡)(유산(流産))만이 일어나며 기형(奇形)은 유발(誘發)하지 않는다고 하여 발생학(發生學)등 여러 교과서에서 기형은 기관형성기(器官形戚期)만이 국한(局限)해서 일어나는 영향이라고 단정되어 왔었다. 그러나 이 연구결과 착상전기에 있어서도 기형이 유발하여 오히려 기관형성기((器官形成期)보다도 감수성이 높다는 것이다. 또한 착상전기에서도 기형유발의 시기특이성을 가지며 여러 종류의 기형이 발생한다는 것이 본 연구로부터 밝혀졌다. 실험동물은 ICR Mouse를 사용했다. ICR Mouse는 일반적으로 태아사망 및 기형실험에 널리 사용되는 것이다. 사육조건은 Conventional 한 조건하에서 사육했으며 Mating 방법(方法)은 Female 마우스의 발정기(Sexual Excitement period)에 있는 mouse 질(膣)을 육안 적으로 관찰하여 $AM 6:00{\sim}AM 9:00$시까지 3시간만 mate시켰다. AM9:00시에 Vaginal Plug를 관찰하여 임신을 확인했다. Plug가 확인 된 마우스는 AM8:00시에 수정(Conception)된 것으로 가정하고 이 시점을 임신 0일 0시로 수정 난의 태아연령을 산정했다. 방사선조사는 $^{135}Cs\;{\gamma}-$선을 사용하였으며 임신 마우스의 전신조사를 실시하고 조사한 시기는 각 2, 48, 72, 96hpc이며 조사한 방사선 선량 군은 $0.1{\sim}2.5Gy$이다. 태아영향 관찰지표는 태아 연령은 mate일 오전 8:00시를 임신 0일 0시로 환산하여 태아연령 18일에 임신마우스를 Cervical vertebral dislocation에 의해 도살했다. 도살 후 해부하여 각 임신 마우스별로 관찰했다. 착상 율을 관찰하기 위하여 황체수를 세었고, 태아사망과 생존태아를 구별했다. 자궁 내 사망의 분류는 태아사망을 1) preimplantation death 2) Embryonic death 3) Fetal death로 분류했다. 착상전사망은 수정후 $0{\sim}4.5$일(1세포기${\sim}$배반포후기 부화까지)까지의 사망으로써 난소의 황체수(배란 수)와 착상태아(생존태아, 착상흔, 태반유잔, 흡수태아, 침연태아의 합계)로부터 구할 수 있다. Embonic death는 수정 후 $4.5{\sim}13$일까지의 사망으로써 Implantation sites, Placental remnants, Resorption of fetus로 관찰된 것이다. Fetal death는 수정후 $14{\sim}18$일까지의 사망으로써 Maceration of fetus로 관찰되는 것이다. 통계학적 분석은 각 Group의 착상 을과 자궁 내 사망 율을 산출할 때에는 각 임신마우스에 따라 발생빈도가 크게 다르기 때문에 통계처리에는 Non parametric 검정인 Kluskal Wallis 검정을 사용하여 분석하였다. 또한 개체 Level 영향인 착상을, 태아사망, 기형의 threshold dose의 산정에 대해서는 SAS-Logistic 검정에 따라 통계 분석을 하여 $5%(Ld_5,\;ED_5)$$10%{\times}2/3$점을 threshold dose로 판단했다. 태아체 중에 대해서는 parametric검정인 t-test검정에 의하여 분석했다. 그 결과 착상전기에서도 기형이 유발하며 특히 시기에 따라 일어나는 때와 일어나지 않는 때가 있음을 본 연구로부터 밝혀졌다. 또한 착상전기의 영향으로써 유발되는 기형은 여러 종류의 기형이 발생함이 밝혀졌다. 특히 이시기는 착상전 사망 및 배(胚)사망은 방사선 선량에 따라 크게 일어나나 태아사망(Fetal death) 및 태아체중은 유의차(有意差)가 없었다.
