Distribution changes in microalgae communities were studied in the Nakdonggang River at two sampling stations (St.1 Gyeongcheongyo Bridge (GB) and St.2 Daedong Wharf (DW)) at monthly intervals from January 2021 to November 2021. A total of 83 taxa included 82 species, 1 forma, belonging to 49 genera, 32 families, 21 orders, and 8 classes. The most important groups were Bacillariophyta and Chlorophyta. The number of species ranged from 5 to 24 in GB, and from 9 to 21 taxa in DW. The contribution of Bacillariophyta to the total species richness was the highest during all survey periods, and Chlorophyta yielded the next highest value in the study area. The dominant taxa were Aulacoseira ambigua, A. ambigua f. japonica, and Ulnaria acus in this study. Cluster analysis and non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS) analysis based on Bray- Curtis similarity identified 4 major groups, which corresponded to microalgae assemblages and their characteristic species. Correlation was analyzed through the CCA analysis. It was found that there was a correlation between the microalgae and environmental factors. It was revealed that the divided groups were distinguished because of the differences by the survey period. Therefore, seasonal change was judged as a major factor affecting the distribution of microalgae communities.

오존을 이용한 잉여슬러지 감량화 시스템이 결합된 생물학적 처리 공정에서 잉여슬러지의 무배출에 따른 생물반응조내의 영향 및 처리수질을 검토하였다. 잉여슬러지 인발량 배수($SDN_{min}$)가 3인 조건에서 잉여슬러지의 pH를 4 이하로 전 처리한 후 오존주입율 0.03 g $O_3/g$ SS로 처리한 결과 잉여슬러지의 인발 없이 안정적인 생물학적 처리가 가능하였다. $OUR_{max}$ 실험 결과, 오존주입율 0.03 g $O_3/g$ SS의 조건에서 대부분의 슬러지는 미생물 활성이 없어지는 것으로 조사되었다. 잉여슬러지의 가용화에 따른 생물반응조내에서의 MLVSS/MLSS의 변화는 거의 없었고, 반응조내 미생물의 인 축적 현상도 관측되지 않았다. 잉여슬러지 가용화 후 생물학적 처리수의 유기물 및 SS의 농도 증가 현상은 관측되지 않았고, 생물반응조내의 질산화 및 탈질율 증가로 유출수중의 T-N 농도가 감소하는 효과를 나타내었다. T-P의 경우에는 잉여슬러지의 무배출로 인해 대부분이 제거되지 않고 유출수중에 함유되어 유출되는 것으로 조사되었다.

본 연구에서는 해양생태계 위해성 평가 시 생물학적, 비생물학적 요인에 대한 인공생태계 실험의 초기 안정성을 객관적으로 평가하기 위해 육상 기반 해양 폐쇄형 메조코즘(LMCM) 실험을 수행하였다. 변동계수(CV)의 진폭 변화는 실험의 안정성 분석 자료로 사용하였다. 본 연구에서 LMCM 그룹(200, 400, 600, 1,000 L) 내 비생물학적 실험변수에 대한 CV 값은 20~30% 범위로 유지되었다. 그러나 엽록소-a, 식물플랑크톤 및 동물플랑크톤과 같은 생물학적 요인의 CV 진폭 파이는 600L와 1,000L LMCM 그룹에서 높게 분석되었다. 이와 같은 결과는 실험 초기에 생물학적 변수에 대한 제어가 부족하여 발생한 것으로 해석된다. 또한 ANOVA 분석에 따르면, LMCM 그룹 간 CV 값은 생물학적 요인과 연관된 실험변수들에서 유의한 차이를 보였다(p<0.05). 본 연구에서 생물학적 변수의 안정화는 LMCM 그룹의 크기와 그룹 내 생물의 생태-생리학적 활동의 복잡성을 감안할 때 수질 및 영양염 성분을 제외하면 실험 초기 생물학적 변수의 변동성을 제어하고 유지할 필요가 있으나 현실적으로 어려운 부분이 많았다. 결론적으로 해양에서 과학적 도구로써 인공생태계 실험은 생물학적, 비생물학적 요인을 구분하여 명확한 측정요소(endpoint)를 비교 분석할 수 있는 연구목적 수립, 실험조건의 안정성 유지 및 실험결과를 객관적으로 해석할 수 있는 표준화된 분석 기법의 도입이 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

A Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped, nonspore-forming bacterial strain, designated Gsoil $357^T$ was isolated from soil sample of a ginseng field in Pocheon Province (South Korea). The isolate contained Q-8 as the predominant ubiquinone and iso-$C_{16:0}$, iso-$C_{17:1}$ ${\omega}9c$, and iso-$C_{15:0}$ as the major fatty acids. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 69.3 mol%. A phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain Gsoil $357^T$ was most closely related to Lysobacter gummosus (97.6%) and Lysobacter antibioticus (97.6%). However, the DNA-DNA relatedness value between strain Gsoil $357^T$ and its phylogenetically closest neighbors was less than 17%. On the basis of its phenotypic properties and phylogenetic distinctiveness, strain Gsoil 357T should be classified as representing a novel species in the genus Lysobacter, for which the name Lysobacter ginsengisoli sp. novo is proposed. The type strain is Gsoil $357^T$ (=KCTC $12602^T$=DSM $18420^T$).

Benthic macroinvertebrates were seasonally sampled from upstream and downstream of the Gunwi Dam construction site from 2006 to 2012. Totally 148 and 165 species were collected at the upstream and downstream sampling sites, respectively. At the upstream area after dam construction, there was no significant change of the numbers of non-insect taxa, but at the downstream area, the non-insect taxon numbers were increased gradually. The individual ratio of Ephemeroptera and Diptera had higher value than the other taxa in both of up and downstream. The trichopteran individual ratios were increased in upstream sites, but decreased in downstream sites from 2010. Also, non-insects and coleopteran individual ratios were decreased in upstream, but increased in downstream after completion of dam construction. The annual range of fluctuation in community indices narrowed after construction. According to a functional feeding group analysis, the individual ratios of FC (Filtering Collector) were increased, and GC (Gathering Collector) and SC (Scraper) were decreased in upstream sites annually. In contrast, the annual individual ratios of FC were decreased, and GC and SC were increased in the downstream sites.

The aim of the study was to select traits that may constitute a prospective criterion for breeding value prediction of young horses. The results of 1,232 starts of 894 four-, five-, six-, and seven-year-old horses, obtained during jumping championships for young horses which had not been evaluated in, alternative to championships, training centres were analyed. Nine traits were chosen of those recorded: ranking in the championship, elimination (y/n), conformation, rating of style on day one, two, and three, and penalty points on day one, two, and three of a championship. (Co)variance components were estimated via the Gibbs sampling procedure and adequate (co)variance component ratios were calculated. Statistical classifications were trait dependent but all fitted random additive genetic and permanent environment effects. It was found that such characteristics as penalty points and jumping style are potential indicators of jumping ability, and the genetic variability of the traits was within the range of 14% to 27%. Given the low genetic correlations between the conformation and other results achieved on the parkour, the relevance of assessment of conformation in four-years-old horses has been questioned.

The degradation of perchloroethylene (PCE) was investigated with the serial treatment of biological reaction after dechlorination using Fenton's reagent. The dechlorination of PCE was expressed using $D_m$ (dechlorination value), calculated from ${\Delta}Cl^-mol/{\Delta}PCE$ mol, and was 2.58 with 5 mM of $H_2O_2$ and $Fe^{3+}$. The $150{\mu}M$ of PCE was transformed to $37{\mu}M$ of dichloroacetic acid (DCAA). Biological treatment with Delftia sp. N6 was applied after degradation of PCE by the Fenton reaction. The optical densities indicating cell growth were 0.53/0.10 with/without the Fenton reaction after one day, respectively. The N6 strain degraded 95% of the DCAA produced from PCE by the Fenton reaction within one day. Consequently, it seemed that the serial treatment of a Fenton reaction and biological reaction was effective in the removal of not only PCE, but also DCAA, one of the major metabolites of PCE.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: In Asia, various medicinal plants have been used as the primary sources in the health care regimen for thousands of years. In recent decades, various studies have investigated the biological activity and potential medicinal value of the medicinal plants. In this study, 100 methanol extracts from 98 plant species were evaluated for their biological activities. MATERIALS/METHODS: The research properties, including 1,1-diphenyl-2-pic-rylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity, ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-tyrosinase inhibitory effects, anti-inflammatory activity, and anticancer activity were evaluated for the selected extracts. RESULTS: Fifteen of the extracts scavenged more than 90% of the DPPH radical. Among the extracts, approximately 20 extracts showed a strong inhibitory effect on ${\alpha}$-glucosidase, while most had no effect on ${\alpha}$-tyrosinase. In addition, 52% of the extracts showed low toxicity to normal cells, and parts of the extracts exhibited high anti-inflammatory and anticancer activities on the murine macrophage cell (RAW 264.7) and human colon cancer cell (HT-29) lines, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings may contribute to further nutrition and pharmacological studies. Detailed investigations of the outstanding samples are currently underway.

응고제 양, 두유 가열 온도, 성형 압력과 같은 두부 제조 공정에 따른 두부의 조직 강도를 파손강도와 초음파의 지연시간 측정을 이용하여 측정하였다. 응고제 양은 0.3%에서 두유 가열 온도는 $95^{\circ}C$에서 최대 파손강도를 나타내었고 성형압력은 압력이 증가할수록 파손강도가 증가하였으며 그에 상응하는 초음파의 잔존시간은 파손강도와 반비례하여 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 각 제조공정을 변수로 하여 중회귀 분석을 한 결과 초음파의 잔존시간으로 예측된 예측 파손강도와 실측정한 파손강도 값들 사이에는 유사함을 나타내어 초음파를 이용한 초음파 잔존시간의 변화는 식품조직의 변화에 따라 민감한 변화를 나타내므로 식품 제조 공정중 품질관리 측면에서 초음파의 사용이 기대되어진다.
