Objective: Recently biophysical research has shown very weak radiation of photons in plant, animal and human cells. Biophoton emission of the aliving system has received specific phenomena because of its scientific potential for monitoring metabolism to human body. This paper proposes a new challenge possibility of the biophoton emission in biophysiological human condition index. Method: Biophoton emission were measured with twenty one healthy volunteers. The study analyses existence for the effect of specific acupoint stimulus, exposure to the sun and low temperature in healthy volunteers. Two photomultiplier tubes which spectral range was from 300 nm to 650 nm was used for the detection of biophoton emission observation of possible acupuncture stimulation effect at left hand palm. Result: There was a reversion of relative emission rates from the palms affected the environment condition. Otherwise, when the acupuncture stimulation, the emission rate was not enough significantly change(p<0.05). Conclusion: In this study, biophoton emissions depend on the environment condition for all subjects. Measurments with the biophoton emission rate analysis might be much considered in future studies.

생체발광 (biophoton emission)의 측정기기를 이용하여 생체의 생리상태를 조사하는 연구가 활발해지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 사염화탄소에 의해 유발된 마우스의 지방간 조직에서 나오는 생체광자를 측정하였다. 올리브유와 올리브를 용매로 하는 사염화탄소를 혼합한 각각의 6마리로 구성된 두 개 군의 마우스에 복강투여 후 24시간, 72시간 후에 각각 간을 적출하여 생체광자를 측정하고, 또한 혈장을 분리하여 생화학적 지표로 사용되는 트랜스아미네이즈 효소 활성도를 측정하였다. 실험결과는 정상적인 대조군의 경우, 생체발광이 29.5$\pm$5.9 counts/min/$\textrm{cm}^2$로. 측정된 반면, 24시간 처리군에 대해서는 69.3$\pm$21.2 counts/min/$\textrm{cm}^2$로 정상관보다 2배 이상 높은 생체발광을 보였다. 또한, 72시간 처리군에 대해서는 37.0$\pm$14.8 counts/min/$\textrm{cm}^2$로 측정되어 생화학적 지표로 사용되는 효소 활성도 결과와 밀접한 상관관계가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the delayed luminescence-biophoton emission from root of Angelica sinensis D., Angelica acutiloba K., and Angelica pubescens M. These three species of Genus Angelica are now imported from other nations into Republic of Korea. Methods : Randomly selected samples from roots of Angelica sinensis D., Angelica acutiloba K., and Angelica pubescens M. were radiated with 150 W metal halide lamp for 1 minute. After radiation. biophoton emissions of each sample were detected by electron multiplication(EM)-charge coupled device camera. The detected biophoton image was calculated with unit of counts per pixel. Results: The average biophoton emissions of delayed luminescence with EM ratio of $\times$150 and $\times$250 were distinguished significantly. The maximum biophoton emissions of delayed luminescence with EM ratio of $\times$250 were distinguished significantly. Conclusions : These results suggest that biophoton imaging of roots of Angelica sinensis D., Angelica acutiloba K., and Angelica pubescens M. could become the meaningful method for the study of differentiation for these three species of Genus Angelica.

Objectives : The difference of delayed luminescence-biophoton emission was investigated in Cervi Pantotrichum Cornu selected randomly. Cervi Pantotrichum Cornu was used as a tonic in Korean medicine. Methods : Randomly selected samples of Cervi Pantotrichum Cornu were radiated with 150 W metal halide lamp for 1 minute. After radiation, biophoton emissions of each sample were detected by electron multiplication(EM)-charge coupled device camera. The detected biophoton image was calculated with unit of counts per pixel. Results : The average biophoton emissions of delayed luminescence with EM ratio of ${\times}l50\;and\;{\times}250$ were distinguished significantly. The maximum biophoton emissions of delayed luminescence with EM ratio of ${\times}250$ were distinguished significantly. Conclusion : These results suggest that biophoton imaging of Cervi Pantotrichum Cornu could become the meaningful method for the study of differentiation and classification of Cervi Pantotrichum Cornu.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to investigate the delayed luminescence-biophoton emission from roots of Angelica gigas N., Angelica sinensis D., and Angelica acutiloba K These three species of Genus Angelica are now used as 'Danggui' in Traditional Korean Medicine. Methods : Randomly selected samples from roots of Angelica gigas N., Angelica sinensis D., and Angelica acutiloba K were radiated with 150 W metal halide lamp for 1 minute. After radiation, biophoton emissions of each sample were detected by electron multiplication-charge coupled device camera. The detected biophoton image was calculated with unit of counts per pixel. Results : The average and maximum biophoton emissions of delayed luminescence with electron multiplication ratio of ${\times}150$ and ${\times}250$were distinguished significantly between Angelica gigas N. and the other two species. Conclusions : These results suggest that biophoton imaging of roots of Angelica gigas N., Angelica sinensis D., and Angelica acutiloba K. could become the meaningful method for the study of differentiation between root of Angelica gigas N. and the other two species, Angelica sinensis D. and Angelica acutiloba K.

3 가지 세포 타입 (mock, wt, R55A)에 CsA를 처리하여 세포에 영향을 주는 원인과의 관계를 PMT를 가지고 측정했다. ROS와 CsA를 사용하여 활성화 산소 (ROS)의 변화를 측정하였다. 3 가지 세포 타입 (mock, wt, R55A) 의 CsA 처리에 영향을 끼치는 광자를 측정했을 때 광자 양이 증가함을 알 수가 있었다. 이러한 광자 양으로부터 ROS를 발생하게 되는 사실을 발견했다. 따라서 PMT에 의한 측정은 ROS의 생화학적 상태 변화를 측정하는 새로운 분석의 하나이다.

We measured biophoton emissions from seven acupuncture points of eight healthy subjects. The measured points are the Yintang, the $Danch{\bar{u}}$, the Shinketsu, the left and right $R{\bar{o}}ky{\bar{u}}$ and the left and right Yaotongwue of hands. The photo multiplier tube (H-610805s, Hamamatsu, Japan) has spectral range between 300nm and 650nm. Significantly low emission rate was observed at the Shinketsu where the rate was $3.7\;{\pm}\;1.8\;cps$. On the average the highest emission was from the Yaotongxue points where the rate was $11.3\;{\pm}\;5.4$. The high correlation between the left and right hands, and the low correlation between different points are consistent with previous reports.

키토산 첨가 혼합사료를 섭취한 양돈 근육 조직과 일반 사료를 섭취한 조직에서의 품질을 비교하기 위한 방법으로 생체광자를 이용한 광전자증폭관(Photomultiplier Tube, PMT) 기기를 사용하여 측정한 결과 서로 다른 결과를 얻었다. 키토산 첨가제를 사용한 돼지 등심조직에서의 육질 비교를 PMT와 현미경을 사용하여 측정한 결과 키토산 첨가 혼합 사료를 먹인 돼지 등심 조직의 생체광자 양을 측정한 결과 서로 상이한 수치를 얻을 수 있었다. 이것으로 조직의 품질을 비교 측정이 가능했다. 또한 이조직의 형태를 해부현미경으로 관찰한 결과 키토산 첨가 혼합사료 근육 조직의 육질이 더 섬세하고 촘촘하여 지방질이 적고 맛이 좋다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 PMT에 의한 조직 육질 측정은 생화학적 상태변화를 측정하는 새로운 분석법의 하나가 될 것으로 기대되어진다.

세 명의 건강한 피험자의 손에서 방출되는 생물광자의 측정을 매주 금요일에 6회씩 일년간 수행하였다. 좌우 손바닥의 생물광자 방출량의 상관계수는 0.9였으며, 좌우 손등의 경우에도 유사하였다. 손바닥과 손등의 상관계수는 평균 0.5로 나왔으며, 이 결과는 장웨이보의 $CO_2$ 발생률의 상관성과 부합되며, 한의학의 음경과 양경맥의 기능간 상관성으로 해석할 수 있음을 시사한다.
