This study was carried out to obtain basic envirinmental information of the native area and growth characteristics at different age of Dendropanax morbifera LEV. In the southern Korea. The Dendropanax morbifera LEV. Was grown naturally at Wando, Cheju(Mt. Halla), Yecheon(Kermoon island),Sinan(Hong isand), Jindo(Mt. Chermchill) and Haenam(Mt. Taeroon), all between 30 to 450m above the sea level. The soil characterisitics of the native area had a pH of 5.3 to 5.4 with 8.4 to 9.8% content of organic matter and 18.2 to 21.3% soil moisture. Flowering starting in the middle of July begun when the trees were 6 years old. Six year old trees are 129 cm in stem height, 34 mm in stem diameter,15.4 in number of leaves with petioles 12.9 cm long. Xylem sap can be obtained from over 10 year old trees that grew well and have over 10 cm stems in diameter.

Dendropanax morbifera H.Lev is an evergreen tree that lives in subtropical climates. About 75 species of D. morbifera live in East Asia, but only one species live in Korea(Korean dendropanax). D. morbifera belonging to Aralicacae family 98% of D. morbifera are distributed in Jeollanam-do in the Korea and the grow wild in Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeju Island. The harvest time and usage of D. morbifera were recorded in traditional medicinal books. The roots and stems of D. morbifera had been used for traditional medicine to treat migraine, menstrual irregularity and skin disease. And D. morbifera leaves are contain flavonoids and polyacetylene compounds. In this study, we were investigated the physiological activity of D. morbifera by different areas collected at the same time, and compared to characteristics of plants. D. morbifera collected from Jeollanam-do (Goheung-gun), Gyeongsangnam-do (Namhae-gun) and Jeju Island, and dried at $50^{\circ}C$ for three days. We used dried D. morbifera powder for antioxidant tests. Each sample was extracted with hot water under the same conditions. The contents of total polyphenols and total flavonoids from D. morbifera were identified. Also, we performed to DPPH radical scavenging activity, ABTS cation radical scavenging activity and Superoxide anion scavenging activity efficacy for antioxidant activity determination. The contents of total polyphenols and total flavonoids in hot water extract of D. morbifera harvested from Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeollanam-do were higher than Jeju. However, D. morbifera harvested from Gyeongsangnam-do and Jeollanam-do showed no significant difference those content of total polyphenols and total flavonoids. And the antioxidant capacity was showed the similar patterns in antioxidant activity.

The stimulated secretion of golden varnish sap by the infection of microorganisms on the bark of Dendropanax morbifera Lev. was observed in the natural habitats. Four candidate strains of such microorganisms(i.e., Sb1, Sb2, Sb3 and Sb4) were isolated from the bark of D. morbifera which was infected in natural. Of them, Sb3 and Sb4 strains showed stimulated secretion of golden vernish sap with the greatest stimulation by Sb4 strains. The yield of golden varnish sap from the bark of D. morbifera was boosted about 3.4~7.7 times by the inoculation of Sb4 strain in compassion with that collected from lacquer tree(Rhus verniciflua Stokes) by the traditional method. The mycelium color of Sb4 strain was grayish white. The optimum growth temperatures and pH were ranged from 30 to $35^{\circ}C$ and from pH 6.5 to 7.0.

Artificial silk that called "Ponggi (Gyeongsangbukdo, Korea) In-Gyeun" in Korea is entirely viscose rayon of which made main component refined larches and cotton linter. It also is natural fabrics with light weight, cool texture, free from the body and well ventilation property, so, feel good touch during the wearing. In addition, it often used as summer cloth and bedding because it has good absorbancy to perspiration and antistatic. The "Hanji", made of paper mulberry, is known as useful material for human. In this research focused on dyeability of Artificial silk/paper mulberry mixed fabrics using Dendropanax morbifera Lev.(called as "Hwangchil") Especially, the results were in comparison to the dyeing properties of Hwangchil with liquid/solid fermentation or not. As the results, The ${\Delta}E$ difference was dominated when the fabric dyed with fermentation by solid state at $60^{\circ}C$. And it was confirmed that the pH of fermented dye had an important influence in the coloration.

This environment of native area and growth characteristics by different age of dendropanax morbifera was grown wild widly at Wando area, particularly, distribution frequency was high at 50 to, 150 meters above the sea level, and configuration of the ground of native area descended slowly toward the southeast. The Soil characteristics of native area was $pH\;5.3{\sim}5.4,\;8.4{\sim}9.8%$ in organic matter content and $18.2{\sim}21.3%$ in soil moisture. The flowering of dendropax morbifera was began at 6 years old tree, and flowering time was at middle of July. The growth characteristics of 6 years old tree was 129cm in stem height, 34mm in stem diameter, 15.4 in number of leaf, and 12.9 cm in petiole length.

This study was performed to investigate the ameliorating effect of a hangover beverage mixture (SBJ) that contains Dendropanax morbifera Lev. and several medicinal plant extracts, on hepatoprotection and alcohol-metabolizing enzymes in alcohol-induced hangover in both in vitro and in vivo models. In human hepatoma cell line, HepG2, 300 mM of ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity was significantly improved by pretreatment of SBJ by dose-dependent manner. In the in vivo study, administration of alcohol to rats raised to the concentration of blood alcohol and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Blood alcohol and LDH levels in SBJ-treated rats significantly decreased at 0.5 h and 8 h after acute ethanol administration (40%, 4.6 g/kg body weight) as compared to alcohol-treated rats. Hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity were significantly higher in SBJ-treated rats than in alcohol-treated rats. SBJ supplementation reduced formation of malondialdehyde (MDA), and inhibited reductions of hepatic superoxide dismutase (SOD), hepatic glutathione (GSH), glutathione-S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) levels, compared with rats administered alcohol. Plasma catalase (CAT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels showed unaltered resulted in all experimental groups compared with the control group. These results suggest that SBJ exhibit hepatoprotective properties by enhancing ADH, ALDH activity and stimulating the antioxidant defense system in alcohol-induced hangover.
