Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time-of-Flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) is the most widely used MS technique for glycan analysis. However, the poor point-to-point and sample-to-sample reproducibility becomes a limit in glycan biomarker research. A prespotted MALDI plate which overcomes the large crystal formation of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (DHB) has been developed and applied for glycan analysis. A homogeneous matrix coated surface without a crystal structure was formed on a hydrophilic/ hydrophobic patterned surface using a piezoelectric device. The reproducible MALDI-TOF-MS data have been presented using MALDI imaging of beer glycan as well as serum glycan eluted from 10% and 20% ACN elution fractions. The glycan profile from the serum glycan by MALDI-TOF-MS with a DHB prespotted plate was highly conserved for 10 different spectra and the coefficient of variations of significant ion peaks of MALDI data varies from 3.59 to 19.95.

Cytotoxic effects of extracts from Tremella fuciformis strain FB001 were evaluated on the DLD-1 human colon adenocarcinoma cell line and the content of polyphenolic compounds in the extracts were analyzed. Hexane, chloroform, and ethyl acetate subfractions (experimental setting I) exhibited cytotoxic effects on the human colon adenocarcinoma DLD-1 cell line with $IC_{50}$ values of 350, 400, and 450 ppm, respectively. When T. fuciformis was extracted sequentially with ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform, and ethanol (experimental setting II), the ether extract demonstrated potent cytotoxicity with an $IC_{50}$ value of 150 ppm, followed by ethyl acetate and chloroform fractions. If the first extraction solvent was chloroform instead of ether (experimental setting III), exposure of the cell line to chloroform, ethyl acetate, and ether extracts at 1,000 ppm led to cell death. High levels of phenolic compounds were estimated for all hydrophobic extracts, which exhibited cytotoxic effects. We propose that this useful information gives additional support to our understanding of the biology and utility of this particular mushroom.

In order to isolate antioxigenic substrates, the browning reaction products of xylose and various amino acids were analysed by TLC and dialysis. Rf values of browning reaction products of xylose and hydrophobic amino acids separated on silica gel TLC plate were shown in the range of 0.38 to 0.56 and that of basic amino acids was around 0.2. Browning reaction products made from xylose and Trp were separated on TLC into four bands with Rf values of 0.25, 0.55, 0.81 and 0.91 respectively. Among these the bands with Rf values of 0.25 and 0.55 appeared having strong antioxidant activity. The band of Rf 0.55 which showed the highest activity was positive to Prochazka reagent and had an absorption maximum at 275 nm. In dialysis of the xylose-Trp browning reaction products, the undialysed fraction (inner solution) was repsponsible to the antioxidant activity, which was separated into two bands with Rf values of 0.25 and 0.55 on TLC. The inner fractions of the browning products of xylose and His or Arg were also apparent in antioxdant activity.

Accurate prediction of the fate and transport of contaminants in soils and sediments is very Important to environmental risk assessment and effective remediation of contaminated soils and sediments. The fate and transport of contaminants in subsurface are affected by geosorbents, especially carbonaceous materials including black carbon. Various physical and chemical treatment methods have been developed to separate different kinds of carbonaceous materials from soils and sediments. However, the effects of these separation methods on the properties of remaining carbonaceous materials including sorption capacity and linearity are unclear. The objective of this study is to determine if the chemical and thermal treatment methods previously used to separate different carbonaceous material fractions affect the properties of carbonaceous materials including longer term sorption capacity of hydrophobic organic contaminants. The results indicate that treatments with hydrochloric acid (HCl)/hydrofluoric acid (HF), trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), sodium hydroxide (NaOH) may not affect the sorption capacity of black carbon reference materials such as char and soot, however, treatments with acid dichromate $(K_2Cr_2O_7/H_2SO_4)$ and heat $(375^{\circ}C)$ for 24 hours in sufficient of oxygen) decrease the sorption capacity of them. The results of longer term sorption isotherm indicate that 2 days might be enough for trichloroethene (TCE) to equilibrate apparently with treated black carbon reference materials. The results suggest that acid dichromate and heat treatments may not appropriate method to investigate sorption properties of black carbon in soils and sediments.

Unlike to natural organic matters (NOMs), effluent organic matters (EfOMs) are not well understood due to their complexity and heterogeneity. In this study, EfOMs from sewage and industrial wastewater treatment effluents and Suwannee River NOM (SRNOM) were isolated into hydrophobic (HPO), transphilic (TPI) and hydrophilic (HPI) fractions. Specific ultraviolet absorbance (SUVA) and fluorescence excitation emission matrix (FEEM) analyses were used to characterize physicochemical properties. In addition, acute toxicity and oxidative stress to Daphnia magna were evaluated to characterize toxicological properties. EfOMs showed similar properties to microbially derived organic matters having low hydrophobicity, which are totally different from SRNOM having high hydrophobicity. Moreover, acute toxicity and antioxidant enzyme activity in D. magna was largely dependent on fraction types of EfOMs. These findings suggest that EfOMs have different physicochemical and toxicological properties compared with those of NOMs, which needs to be further identified with various sources of EfOMs.

시중에서 판매하는 중국산 옻칠을 그대로 혹은 유기용매에 녹는 부분과 녹지 않는 부분으로 분리하고 각각의 경화현상을 연구하였다. 그대로 사용하는 경우에는 상온에서 수분이 포화된 상태에서 경화를 관찰하였으며 유기용매로 분리한 부분의 경화는 섭씨 $100^{\circ}C$와 $150^{\circ}C$에서 경화를 관찰하였다. 서로 다른 방법으로 얻어낸 도막의 성질을 서로 비교하였으며 옻 중 유기용매에 녹는 부분과 1,6-diisocyanohexane, toluendiisocyanate(TDI)를 공중합하였을 때 얻어지는 도막과 다른 도막과의 성질로 비교하였다. 가열하여 형성된 도막은 매우 깨어지는 성질(취성)이 매우 높았으며 자연상태로 경화된 도막에 비하여 친수성이 낮았다. Diisocyanate를 사용하지 않은 경우에는 경화에 산소가 필수적이어서 오랜 시간이 지나도 내부는 경화가 되지 않았다.

Urban stormwater runoff is the one of the most extensive causes of deterioration of water quality in streams in urban areas. Especially, in the Suyeong River watershed, non-point sources from urban-residential areas are the most common cause of water pollution. Also, it has been ascertained that BOD and COD as indexes of organic matter, have limitation on management of Suyeong River's water quality. In this study, changes of organic matter properties of Suyeong River from inflow of non-point source during rainfall were investigated. Fractions of organic matters were analyzed using water samples collected at two sites (Suyeong River and Oncheon Stream) during a rain event. Variations of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration by rainfall were similar to flow rate change in the river. Distribution of organic matter fraction according to change of rain duration revealed that while hydrophilic component increased at initial rainfall, the hydrophobic component was similar to change in dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration. Also, the relative proportion of hydrophilic components in organic matter in river water increased, due to rainfall. Results of biodegradation of organic matters revealed that decomposition rate of organic matters during rainfall was higher than that of during a non-rainfall event.

Dry water is a core-shell structured powder which comprises a very fine water core covered with hydrophobic silica particles. Recently, the dry water has attracted attention as a new type of fire extinguishing agents. However, characteristics of the dry water as a fire extinguishing agent have not been revealed until now. To our best knowledge, this is the first work to uncover effects of particle size of the dry water on the fire extinguishing performance. Pristine dry water, which has heterogeneous particle size distribution, was carefully separated by sieving method into three fractions which were a small size (ca. $110{\mu}m$) fraction, a medium size (ca. $220{\mu}m$) fraction and a large size (ca. $400{\mu}m$) fraction. Microscopic observations confirmed the effective separation of dry water's particle size. In extinguishing tests of wood cribs fire, the medium size dry water showed most excellent fire extinguishing performance, as compared to other dry waters having small (ca. $110{\mu}m$) and large (ca. $400{\mu}m$) particle size. The good performance of the medium size (ca. $220{\mu}m$) dry water may be attributed to the balance between cooling effect of the water core and smothering effect of the silica particles. It is also revealed that small size dry water has poor flowability than large size dry water.

본 연구는 세포막의 유동성이 막의 항상성(homeostasis)을 유지하는 가장 기본적이며 중요한 성질이라는 점을 감안하여, 용매별로 분획한 식품의 추출물을 첨가함으로써 인지질 이중층(liposome)의 물리.화학적 성질에 미치는 막 유동성(membrane fluidity)의 변화를 열시차 열량 분석법(differential scanning calorimeter, DSC)에 의해 측정하였다. 즉 식탁의 애용식품인 당근의 용매별 분획물이 인지질 liposome에 미치는 막의 유동성에 미치는 증가효과를 본 결과, DPPC liposome에 당근의 용매별 분획물을 첨가했을 때, 일반적으로 첨가하지 않은 경우보다 첨가 농도의 증가에 따라 의존적으로 초기 상전이온도가 낮아졌고 흡열고선의 모양이 넓어졌으며 그로 인하여 협동단위($\Delta$$H_{VH}$ $\Delta$H㎈)값이 감소됨을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 현상은 일정농도의 당근분획물의 첨가가 DPPC liposome의 막유동성을 증가시킨 결과로 생각되어진다. 그리고 각 용매별 당근분획물의 유동성효과를 각각 비교해본 결과, DCSMH와 DCSMEA의 분획물첨가가 DCSMB와 DCSMA에 비해 DPPC liposome의 초기 상전이온도 및 협동단위를 더욱더 감소시켜 막유동성에 더 많은 영향을 주는 것을 확인하였다. 이와 같은 현상은 DCSMH와 DCSMEA의 분획물이 DCSMB와 DCSMA분획물의 경우보다 hydrophobicity가 더 크므로 인해 DPPC 인지질막 이중층의 acylchain쪽으로 더 깊숙히 용해하여 침투되므로서 생긴 현상이라 하겠다. 즉 당근분획물의 막유동성 증가작용은 세포막에서 일어나는 대사물, 약물, 이온 등의 운반 및 영양물의 교환, 흡수 등 생체막의 주요기능에 영향을 미치는 효과가 있는 것으로 사료되며, 앞으로 막유동성을 증가시키는 구체적 생리활성물질의 추구가 기대되어진다.

순수 배양한 남조류 3종 (Microcystis aeruginosa, Anabaena flos-aquae, Oscillatoria agardhii)을 대상으로 식물플랑크톤에 의한 체외배출 용존유기탄소(extracelluar dissolved organic carbon:EOC)의 배출양상, 화학적성분, 자외선흡광 특성을 연구하였다. EOC의 화학적성분은 XAD-8, 양이온, 음이온수지를 이용하여 소수성 산 (hydrophobic acids; AHSs), 소수성 중성 (hydrophobic neutrals: HoNs), 친수성 산 (hydrophilic acids; HiAs), 친수성 염기 (hydrophilic bases; HiBs), 그리고 친수성 중성 (hydrophilic neutrals; HiNs)으로 분류하였다. 3종의 남조류로부터 배출된 EOC의양과 화학적조성은 종마다 상이하였고, 조류의 성장단계에 따라서도 다르게 나타났다. HiAs성분은 남조류가 배출한 EOC의 가장 많은 부분(25${\sim}$92%)을 차지했고, 정체기로 갈수록 HiAs성분이 차지하는 비율이 감소하였다. 반면, HiBs와 HiNs 성분은 정체기로 진행될수록 비율이 증가하였다. 특히 HiNs성분은 성장초기에는 거의 배출되지 않다가 정체기에서는 전체 EOC의 상당한 부분을 차지하였다 (M. aeruginosa: 44%, A. flos-aquae: 28%). AHSs성분은 M. aeruginosa에서 0.2${\sim}$2.5%로 매우 작았지만, A. flos-aquae(8.7${\sim}$16%)와 O. agardhii (7.5${\sim}$16%)에서는 상당한 부분을 차지했다. 그러나 AHSs의 배출은 M. aeruginosa와 O. agardhii에서 성장이 진행될수록 증가한 반면, A. flos-aquae에서는 반대의 경향을 보였다. 남조류에 의해 배출된 EOC의 자외선흡광 특성도 종에 따라 상이한 결과를 보였다. 본 연구의 결과는 남조류의 종과 성장단계에 따라 배출되는 용존유기물의 특성이 다르다는 것을 시사한다.
