Hydraulic transport of fines up to the surface of flotation cell was supposed to be a mechanism of fines fractionation through the froth-flotation. Efficient fractionation of fines means efficient skimming out of flotation rejects as much as possible with least long fiber loss. The selectivity of fines fractionation was found to be mainly affected by long fibers flocculation degree in this study. Lack of sufficient flocculation of long fibers could lead to extensive loss of long fibers. It was also found that higher flotation flux caused higher flotation reject as well as the increase of long fiber loss, but did not affect the fine content ratio in the flotation reject. We controlled the flotation flux and the stock consistency, and chose a cationic polymer to maximize the flocculation of long fibers and to increase the amount of flotation reject. The highest efficiency of fines fractionation was obtained at 1.3% of stock consistency and at 100L/min of flotation flux in our experimental set up. The cationaic polymer we chose was found to be very effective in fiber flocculation and flotation froth stabilization. New definitions of fractionation efficiency were introduced in this study to compare the results more clearly.

The localization of paclitaxel was investigated in suspension culture cells of Taxus chinensis. Over 93% of the cell-associated paclitaxel were detected throughout the entire culture period. Intracellular localization of paclitaxel over the culture time was analyzed further by cell fractionation for days 21 and 42. Paclitaxel contents in intracellular organelles were decreased at day 42, while the content in the cell wall fraction was increased at day 42 compared to the value for day 21. The localization of paclitaxel in the cell wall was confirmed by using the immunocytochemical method with the aid of a confocal laser scanning microscope.

Herein, different extracts of Scenedesmus deserticola JD052, a green microalga, were evaluated in vitro as a potential anti-aging bioagent. Although post-treatment of microalgal culture with either UV irradiation or high light illumination did not lead to a substantial difference in the effectiveness of microalgal extracts as a potential anti-UV agent, the results indicated the presence of a highly potent compound in ethyl acetate extract with more than 20% increase in the cellular viability of normal human dermal fibroblasts (nHDFs) compared with the negative control amended with DMSO. The subsequent fractionation of the ethyl acetate extract led to two bioactive fractions with high anti-UV property; one of the fractions was further separated down to a single compound. While electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy analysis identified this single compound as loliolide, its identification has been rarely reported in microalgae previously, prompting thorough systematic investigations into this novel compound for the nascent microalgal industry.

Split-flow thin (SPLITT) cell Fractionation(SF) is a technique that allows separation of particulates and macromolecules into two fractions. A gravitational SF(GSF) system is constructed and tested for its applicability for separation of dust and ground water particulates. When tested with polystyrene latex particles, experimental data were in good agreements with theory. The 9.8 and 21.4㎛ polystyrene particles were successuflly separated in a continuous mode, where the mixture is continuously fed into the GSF channel allowing separation in a large sacle. The GSF system is successfully applied to continuous separation of dust and ground water particels based on the sedimentation coefficient, which is closely related to the particle size. The separations were confirmed by microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysos.

흰쥐 시상하부에서 합성ㆍ분비되어 뇌하수체 전엽에서의 growth hormone (GH) 분비를 촉진하는 growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH)이 시상하부 이외 조직들 (extrahypothalamic tissues)인 태반, 생식소, 그리고 뇌하수체 전엽에서도 발현됨이 보고되었다. 본 연구는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 발현되는 GHRH의 기능을 조사하기 위해 i)세포 배양을 시행하면서 GHRH의 세포내 함량, 분비 그리고 세포분획법 (cell-fractionation)을 사용하여 분리한 뇌하수체 세포 유형별로 GHRH 함량을 방사면역측정법으로 조사하였고, ii)체외배양 중인 뇌하수체 전엽세포의 증식에 미치는 GHRH의 효과를 측정하기 위해 [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation assay를, 그리고 iii) GHRH의 세포분열 촉진 효과와 세포내 c-fos 유전자 발현과의 상관관계를 조사하기 위해 northern blot analysis를 시행하였다. GHRH 방사면역측정법을 시행한 결과 상당량의 GHRH-like 분자들이 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽내에 존재하고, 체외 세포배양시 분비됨을 관찰하였다. 세포분획을 사용한 실험에서 GHRH 함량은 gonadotrope, somatotrope, lactotrope 그리고 thyrotrope 순으로 나타났다. 이 러한 결과는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 생성된 GHRH가 국부적인 조절인자, 특히 상이한 유형의 세포들 간의 상호조절 (cross-talk)을 통해 뇌하수체 전엽에서의 세포분열과 분화, 그리고 기능조절에 관여할 가능성을 보여주었다. GHRH는 체외 배양중인 뇌하수체 전엽세포의 [$^3$H] thymidine incorporation을 농도의존적으로 증가시켰으며, 이러한 GHRH의 세포분열 촉진 효과는 예상대로 세포내 oncogene 활성 의 증가를 통해 일어나는 것임을 c-fos northrn blot으로 확인하였다. 결론적으로, 본 연구는 흰쥐 뇌하수체 전엽에서 합성되는 GHRH가 paracrine 또는 autocrine 기작으로 GH의 분비 촉진 이외에도 세포분열의 조절함을 시사하는 것이다.

Split-flow thin cell fractionation (SPLITT fractionation, SF)은 밀도와 입자 크기에 따라 입자성 물질이나 거대분자를 연속적으로 분리 및 분획하는 기술이다. SF 모드 중 full-feed depletion mode (FFD)는 오직 한 개의 주입 구를 가지고 있으며, outlet에만 flow stream splitter가 존재한다. SPLITT은 두 가지의 중요 인자가 있다. 하나는 시간에 따라 통과되는 시료의 양 (throughput, TP)과 또 다른 하나는 이론에 의해 예측된 크기를 가지는 입자들의 수 퍼센트로 정의하는 분획효율 (fractionation efficiency, FE)이다.. 기존 FFD 모드에서는 splitter가 outlet에 존재하여, 채널 규모를 확장시키는 데 제한이 있어 시료 처리량의 한계가 있다. 따라서 splitter를 제거하고 채널규모를 증가하여 시료 처리량을 대폭 증가시킬 수 있는 대규모 중력장 FFD-SF 채널을 사용하였다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 대용량 중력장 FFD-SF의 TP와 FE 최적화를 위하여 시료농도와 유속변화로 실험을 진행하였다. 이 실험에서는 두 개의 다른 입자 분포 (3~7 µm, 2~30 µm) 를 가지는 Polyurethane (PU) latex beads가 사용되었다. 시료의 농도는 0.2~0.8% (wt/vol)을 사용하였으며, 채널의 유속은 70~160 mL/min을 사용하였다. 분획된 입자는 광학 현미경으로 확인하여 직접 크기 관찰을 하였으며 시료 회수율 (recovery)은 수집된 입자를 0.1 µm 맴브레인 필터로 거른 후 무게측정으로 실험하였다. 본 연구를 통해 fraction-a의 분획효율 (FE)은 이론에 따라 정확히 맞춰준다면 언제든 좋은 수치를 얻을 수 있다는 것이 확인되었고, 시료의 입자크기가 커서 채널에 쌓일 경우, 시료 회수율을 높이기 위해서는 이동상을 더 흘려주는 방법을 사용하면 효과적인 것을 확인하였다. 또한 효율적인 TP로 실험을 진행하기 위해서는 최소한 0.4% 농도는 사용해야 효율적인 분획이 이뤄진다는 것을 확인하였다.

Cornis fructus were extracted by successive extractions and then fractionated with chloroform extract to get active fractions. This study was performed to determine the cytotoxic effect of chloroform extract from Cornis fructus on NIH 3T3 fibroblasts and cancer cell lines using MTT assay. All extracts did not exhibit cytotoxicity in HIH 3T3 fibroblasts. Chloroform extract exhibited antitumor activity in A549, MDA-MB-123, B16 melanoma and SNU-C4 cells. Futher fractionation with chloroform extract was performed to obtain effective fractions. (omitted)

Ethanol and butanol fractionation of E. senticosus showed strong anti-oxidant activity, and methanol and water extracts also had high anti-oxidant activity. The anti-oxidant activities in ethanol and butanol fractionation were higher than or similar to those of ${\alpha}-tocopherol$. The cytotoxic effect of root extract of E. senticosus was evaluated on seven different human cancer cell lines, The extracts of leaf and stem of E. senticosus also had strong antioxidant activity, but the antioxidant activity in root extract was higher than those in leaf and stem extracts. Methanol, hexane, and aqueous fraction layer had much higher inhibitory activities on lipid peroxidation in rat liver microsomes compared with ${\alpha}-tocopherol$. The effect of root extract of E. senticosus was evaluated on six human cancer cell lines. The values of 50% growth inhibition $(GI_{50})$ for the extracts were mostly below $30{\mu}g/ml$, and the extracts are considered as active inhibitory compounds on cancer cells.
