This study was conducted to analyze the pore structure of Yellow poplar. Cross-sectional surfaces of heartwood and sapwood of Yellow poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) were observed by SEM, and the true density of the heartwood, intermediate wood and sapwood were measured by gas pycnometery, while gas permeability and pore size of heartwood, intermediate wood and sapwood were measured by capillary flow porometery. The pores were classified as through pore, blind pore and closed pore. It was determined that the permeability was increased due to the content and size of through pore being increased although the total porosity of specimen showed slight difference from pith to bark. The content of through pore porosity was 33.754 % of heartwood and 47.810 % of sapwood, showed an increasing trend from pith to bark, however, those for the blind pore porosity and closed pore porosity were 27.890 % and 19.492 % for heartwood and 19.447 % and 4.660 % for sapwood, showed a decreasing trend from pith to bark. The max pore size of specimens was increased by about 5 times from $5.927{\mu}m$ to $31.334{\mu}m$, and mean flow pore size was increased by about 315 times from $0.397{\mu}m$ to $12.437{\mu}m$ from pith to bark.

Many kind tree species are growing in Korea. However most of them are inferior in wood qualities and production for commercial utilization except several species. Among the useful several species Red Pine (Pinus densiflora S. et. Z.) is growing in main tree species and most generally utilizing wood in korean forest. It is used widely as mine timbers, cross ties, boxes, floorings, pulpwoods, constructions and engineerings. Although this species is most useful and economical in this country, the basical properties on relation between wood and relative humidities were not studied certainly. This study was performed by need of inspection the hygroscopic and swelling properties to be apllied for physical manufacturing. According to the results the Equilibrium Moisture Contents of each relative humidity conditions are as table (3), and the swelling values of sap and heartwood are as table (4) and (5) in text. In this study sapwood moisture contents are higher than heartwood in each relative humidities conditions. Tangential and radial ratios of average swelling values are 1:1.971 in sapwood and 1:2.178 in heartwood.

Three kinds of specimens(radiata pine sapwood, radiata pine heartwood and whemlock heartwood) were dried at four temperature levels (30, 40, 50 and $60^{\circ}C$) in an emvironmental chamber. Unsteady-state diffusion coefficients were calculated from obtained drying fates by using infinite slab equation for first half of sorption and interval diffusion equation for second half of sorption. Activation energies for moisture diffusion in wood were calculated from the diffusion coefficients obtained at four temperatures. In most cases diffusion coefficients for radial movement were higher than those for tangential movement. Activation energy differences between sapwood and heartwood weren't significant for radial movement, but were significant for tangential movement. Most activation energies calculated from drying rates were lower than heat of water condensation(about 11,000cal/mole). Specially the avenge activation energy for sapwood tangential movement was only 5,000cal/mole.

Two flavan 3,4-diol derivatives were isolated from the heartwood of Robinia pseudoacacia and characterized by spectroscopic methods including $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR and positive FAB-MS. The structures were identified as 2,3-trans-3,4-cis-3,4,7,3',4',5'-hexahydroxy flavan, one of isomeric leucorobinetinidins, and 4'-methoxy-2,3-trans-3,4-cis-3,4,7,3',5'-pentahydroxy flavan.

항균 및 항산화활성이 우수한 산뽕나무(Morus bombycis)로부터 항균 및 항산화물질 탐색을 위해 심재 에탄올 추출물을 용매분획하여 얻은 에틸아세테이트 가용부로부터 4개의 페놀성 화합물을 단리하였다. 이들을 기기분석한 결과, stilbenoid 인 2',3,4',5-tetrahydroxystilbene(oxyresveratrol), 3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene(resveratrol)과 flavonoid인 2',3,4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone(morin) 및 3,4',5,7-tetrahydroxyflavan ((+)-afzelechin)인 것으로 동정되었다.

전보에 이어 산벚나무(P. sargentii) 심재 에탄올 추출물로부터 4개의 페놀성 화합물을 단리하였으며 기기분석결과, isoflavone인 prunetin를 비롯하여 flavanone인 angophorol, sakuranetin 그리고 flavanone 배당체인 isosakuranin 으로 각각 동정하였다. 그러나 이들의 항균 및 항산화 활성을 조사한 결과 활성이 낮아 산벚나무 에탄올 조추출물의 높은 항균 및 항산화 활성은 이들 단리물질과는 무관한 것으로 사료되었다.

Ten compounds, consisting of neoflavonoids (1-5), isoflavonoids (6 and 7), flavanone (8), and chalcones (9 and 10) were isolated from the ethyl acetate and n-butanol-soluble fractions of the heartwood of Dalbergia melanoxylon. The chemical structures were identified on the basis of spectroscopic evidence and compared to previously reported spectra. Compounds 1-10 were evaluated for cytotoxicity against HCT116 human colorectal cancer, MDA-MB-231 human metastatic breast cancer, and A2058 human melanoma cell lines. Among them, compounds 3 and 10 showed the strongest cytotoxic activity with IC₅₀ values of 11.92±1.07 μM, 10.83±1.02 μM, and 14.37±1.02 μM, 13.62±1.09 μM against HCT116 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines, respectively. Compounds 9 and 10 also had cytotoxic activity with IC₅₀ values of 13.49±1.18 μM and 9.82±0.91 μM against A2058 cell lines, respectively. To the best our knowledge, compounds 2 and 5-10 were isolated from this source for the first time.

This research focused on the natural durability of twenty one lesser known tropical wood species planted in West Java, Indonesia against subterranean termite (Coptotermes curvignathus). It was observed that both heartwood and sapwood of Kiara payung (Filicium decipiens); heartwoods of Nangka (Arthocarpus heterophyllus), Mahoni (Swietenia macrophylla) and Simpur (Dillenia grandifolia); and sapwood of Bungur (Lagerstroemia speciosa) were rated as resistant (natural durability class II) according to Indonesian standard SNI 01.7207.2006 (BSN 2006). Both heartwood and sapwood of Salam (Syzigium polyanthum), Pasang (Lithocarpus sundaicus), Bisbul (Diospyros discolor), Rukam (Flacourtia rukam) and Trembesi (Samanea saman); heartwood of Puspa (Schima walichii), Bungur, Tanjung (Mimusops elangi) and Angsana (Pterocarpus indicus) were rated as moderately resistant (natural durability class III). Both heartwood and sapwood of Sungkai (Peronema canescens), Pine (Pinus merkusii), Mangium (Acacia mangium) and Afrika (Maesopsis eminii); sapwoods of Mahoni, Puspa and Tanjung were rated as poorly resistant (natural durability class IV). Both heartwood and sapwood of Agathis (Agathis dammara), Durian (Durio zibethinus), Ki sampang (Evodia latifolia) and Jabon (Anthocephalus cadamba); sapwoods of Nangka and Angsana were rated as very poorly resistant (natural durability class V). This reserach showed that woods with lower resistance against C. curvignathus attack (natural durability class IV and V) tend to have lower termite mortality values compared to woods with higher resistance against C. curvignathus attack (natural durability class II and III). Results of the study will provide some valuable information on termite resistance of twenty one lesser known tropical wood species planted in Indonesia.

낙엽송의 심부후재(心腐朽材) 형성 원인과 성장상태(成長狀態) 및 그의 조성분(組成分) 차이를 구명하기 위한 실험이다. 1. 낙엽송이 정상적인 생장을 한 10년생 까지는 그의 성장율이 32.4% 이었으나 심부피해가 있는 11-13년 사이는 19.4%로 13% 점감하고 있다. 그리고 심부후재 형성은 산화(山火)에 의한 수피(樹皮)의 화상부분(火傷部分)부터 이루어지고 있다. 낙엽송 임지(林地)의 산화피해로 생기는 심부후재로 인한 재적(材積) 손실(損失)은 약 20% 이상이 되고 있다. 2. 조성분에 있어 탄분(炭分) 함유량은 심재가 0.05%, 심부후재부가 0.08%로 변재 0.29%에 비하여 적은데 이러한 원인은 유출성분(抽出成分) 함량 차이에서 오는 것으로 볼 수 있다. Holocellulose 함유량은 54.3%에서 59.3%로 심재, 심부후재부 그리고 변재 사이에 차이가 인정되지 않는다. Pentosan 함유량은 심재 6.3% 및 심부후재부가 6.6%로 변재보다 많았다. Lignin 함유량은 심재 34.4% 보다 심부후재부에서 감소되고 있는데 이러한 현상은 목재의 제강도(諸强度)가 열화(劣化)된다고 본다.

The ethanolic extract of the heartwood of Taxus baccata L. afforded six taxoids, belonging to the skeletally three different groups, $2{\alpha},\;5{\alpha},\;10{\beta}-triacetoxy-14{\beta}-(2-methyl)-butryloxy-4(20)$,11-taxadiene (1), taxusin (2), baccatin VI (3), baccatin III (4), $1{\beta}-hydroxybaccatin$ I (5) and taxol (6). The isolation and structure elucidation of three taxoids (3-5) have been presented in this study. This is the first report for the presence of these taxoids in Taxus baccata L. growing in Turkey.
