The $PM_{2.1}$ was collected by LVCI (low volume cascade impactor) during Group-A Period (September 1990 to December 2012) and the $PM_{2.5}$ was collected by HVAS (high volume air sampler) during Group-B Period (September 2009 to April 2012) at Kyung Hee University, Global Campus located on the boarder of Yongin and Suwon. The 8 water-soluble ions ($Na^+$, $NH_4{^+}$, $K^+$, $Mg^{2+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Cl^-$, $ NO_3{^-}$, and $SO_4{^{2-}}$) were analyzed by IC, and the 14 inorganic elements (Al, Mn, Si, Fe, Cu, Pb, Cr, Ni, V, Cd, Ba, Zn, Ti, Ag) were analyzed by XRF and ICP-AES after performing proper pre-treatments of each sample filter. The average total mass fractions of $SO_4{^{2-}}$, $NO_3{^-}$, and $NH_4{^+}$+ to $PM_{2.5}$ samples during Group-B Period were 0.39 in normal days, 0.44 in haze days, and 0.27 in Asian dust days, respectively; however, the average total mass fractions of Al, Fe, and Si to $PM_{2.5}$ mass were 0.043 in normal days, 0.021 in haze days, and 0.036 in Asian dust days, respectively. Especially the concentration of Pb was significantly decreased during Group-B Period rather than during Group-A Period, while Cr and Ni was increased during Group-B Period. In this study, we intensively compared the annual and seasonal patterns of major chemical species among normal days, haze days, and Asian dust days. Further we developed mass fraction profiles by collecting episode cases of haze days and Asian dust days, which were consisting of 22 chemical species. Those profiles are considered to be useful when applying various receptor models and establishing air quality management plans near future.

1. CWPC중의 새로운 생리활성물질의 검색 Mouse 임파세포의 증식효과를 지표로 하는 면역기능을 검토하여 CWPC중의 면역 부활작용을 갖는 새로운 성분의 검색을 실시하였다. CWPC를 여러 가지 분획법으로 분획하여 mouse 임파세포의 증식효과를 지표로 면역 활성성분을 검색하였다. 그 결과 gel filtration, 음이온교환법을 사용하여 분획한 당을 다량 포함한 부분에 강한 면역 부활담당세포에 대하여 증식활성을 나타내는 물질을 발견하였다. 이 물질은 SDS-PAGE상에서 분자량이 약 16kDa에 위치하여 Ca, p및 당쇄를 포함한 물질이며, 이것을 GPP로 하였다. GPP에는 우유케이신의 trypsin분해물이며 Ca와 무기인을 풍부하게 포함하는 ${\beta}$-CPP와 유사한 phosphoserin 영역을 갖는 성분과 갖지 않는 성분의 2종류가 존재하며, 각각의 면역 부활활성이 인정되었다. 각 성분의 아미노산 분석, 당 분석의 결과에서 지금까지 보고된 우유중의 면역담당세포에 대한 증식활성을 갖는 물질과는 상이한 성분인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 더우기 이 활성물질(GPP)은 PP cell에서도 동등한 활성이 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 결과를 종합하여 보면 CWPC중에는 지금까지 알려지지 않았던 새로운 면역 부활물질이 존재하며, 그 성분에는 CPP와 유사한 phophoserine영역이 존재하는 성분이 포함되어 있고, N-글리코실 결합의 당쇄가 존재하는 것으로 시사되었다. 이 성분은 전신면역의 지표인 비장세포에 대해서만이 아니고, 장관면역계에 중요한 역할을 담당하는 PP Cell에서도 활성이 있는 것으로 보아 전신 및 국부적인 면역기능의 부활성분으로서 응용의 가능성이 시사되었다.

Although considerable research has been done on the blood chemistry of domestic animals, little work has been made of the changes associated with age. Moreover, the records about physiology of the goat were not much available in Korea, and a comprehensive survey of the blood values of the Korean native goat has not been made. The object of the present investigation was to make good this deficiency and to suggest standards for the blood chemical values of Korean native goats from birth to maturity. The goats were kept under average farming conditions in Korea. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein at birth, at one and four days, at one, two, three and four weeks, and at two, three, six, nine and twelve months of age. The results obtained in this work were summarized as follows: 1. The highest concentration of serum glucose was observed at birth and it decreased gradually until three months of age, showing a steady state thereafter. 2. The concentration of total serum protein was a little higher at one day of age than at birth and showed a steady state until seven days of age; then it decreased slightly at two weeks of age and recovered at three weeks of age and showed a steady state until twelve months of age. The concentration of serum albumin was increased a little at one day of age and revealed a steady state thereafter. The concentration of serum globulin showed three phases - a fall during the first two weeks to reach minimum, a rise to the fourth week, and a fall at two months of age, showing a steady state thereafter. The lowest value of albumin fraction was observed at birth, then the value increased gradually until three months of age and revealed a stealer state thereafter. The highest value of globulin fraction was observed at birth, then the gradual decrease of the value was seen until three months of age; thereafter the value showed a steady state. 3. Albumin/globulin ratio was the minimum at birth, then it increased to reach a maximum at two weeks of age and decreased a little thereafter. 4. The concentration of total serum cholesterol showed a gradual increase during the first three months and fell to reach adult revel at six months of age. 5. Urea nitrogen in serum decreased during the first week to reach a minimum, then it increased at three months of age, and showed a fell to mature level at six mouths of age. 6. The concentration of serum creatinine was not affected by age. 7. The concentration of total serum calcium was a little higher during the first two weeks than the other period during the first year of life. 8. The concentration of serum inorganic phosphorus showed a gradual rise to reach a maximum and a gradual fall to reach adult level at nine months of age. 9. No significant sex differences of serum chemical values were recognized.

우리나라의 건강기능식품법에서는 인삼 또는 홍삼의 기능성이 자양강장, 면역증진 및 원기회복으로 한정되어 있다. 지금까지 홍삼에 함유된 갈변물질과 산성다당체에 대해서 많은 연구가 수행되었는데, 갈변물질은 항산화 활성과 면역증진기능, 그리고 산성다당체는 소화기관암의 증상개선, 면역기능 증진, 혈압개선, 혈액응고방지, 조혈기능, 알콜해독(간기능 회복, 고지혈 개선 등) 등의 효능이 우수하다고 보고되었다. 이러한 관점에서 현재 인삼과 홍삼의 3가지 기능성외에 항산화활성이라든지 그 외 더 많은 기능성을 추가할 필요성이 있으며, 또 홍삼에 함유되어 있는 활성성분을 적극적으로 이용하여 기준규격형제품은 물론이고 질병위험감소에 대해서 기능성을 표시할 수 있는 개별인정형 제품이나 나아가서는 일반 또는 전문의약품으로 개발하여 홍삼의 이용 가능성을 극대화시키고 국제적으로 경쟁력이 있는 한국인삼으로 그 위상을 제고시켜야 한다고 생각한다.

가토 근위세뇨관에서 Percoll gradient에 의해 분리한 기저막소포(basolateral membrane vesicle)에서 PAH 이동에 미치는 여러 음이온들의 영향을 rapid filtration technique을 이용하여 관찰하였다. NA-dependent PAH 축적은 용액내 $SO_4$와 $SSO_3$에 의하여 유의하게 억제되었으나 $Cl,\;SCN,\;HPO_4,\;acetate$ 및 oxalate에 의해서는 영향을 받지 않았다. 용액내의 $SO_4$는 상경적으로 PHA 이동을 억제하였다. 소포내 음이온을 부하시킨 후 PAH 이동을 측정했을 때 $acetate,\;SO_4$ 및 PAH의 부하에 의해 PAH 이동은 유의하게 증가되었으며, 소포내 부하되는 $SO_4$농도가 증가함에 따라 PAH 축적은 증가되었다. $SO_4$에 의한 PAH의 trans-stimulation은 Na 농도 경사 존재시 더욱 증가되었으며 이들은 2 mM probenecid 및 1mM SITS에 의해 억제되었다. 이들 결과들은 신피질세뇨관 세포의 기저막에 PAH/음이온 교환에 의해 PAH가 이동되는 기전이 존재한다는 것을 가르킨다. 그러나 PAH 이동에 영향이 없는 음이온들은 PAH/음이온 교환에 기질로써 작용하지 않기 때문인지 아니면 이들 음이온들의 높은 투과성에 인해 나타난 결과인지는 더욱 추구해 보아야 확인될 것으로 생각된다.

The present study aimed to investigate the diurnal variations in air concentrations and exchange fluxes of ammoniacal nitrogen ($NH_x$: ammonia ($NH_3$) and particulate ammonium) in a subalpine deciduous forest in central Japan during a week in summer. The $NH_3$ concentrations ($0.50\;{\mu}g\;N\;m^{-3}$ on average) showed a clear circadian variation, i.e., high and low in the daytime and nighttime, respectively. The concentration of particulate ammonium in the coarse fractions was extremely low, whereas that for the PM2.5 fraction was relatively high $0.55\;{\mu}g\;N\;m^{-3}$ on average). The main inorganic ion components of PM2.5 at the study site were ammonium and sulfate. The exchange fluxes of $NH_x$ were bidirectional. Both the maximum and minimum values occurred in the daytime, i.e., $0.39\;mg\;N\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$ of downward flux and $0.11\;mg\;N\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$ of upward flux for $NH_3$ and $0.25\;mg\;N\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$ of downward flux and $0.13\;mg\;N\;m^{-2}\;hr^{-1}$ of upward flux for PM2.5 ammonium. The exchange fluxes of $NH_x$ at night could be considered as zero. The mean deposition velocity during the research period was almost zero for both $NH_3$ and PM2.5 ammonium. The atmosphere-forest exchange of $NH_x$ in the forest during the study period was balanced. The remarkably large deposition of $NH_x$ was attributable to meteorological events such as showers the night before that thoroughly washed the forest canopy and subsequent clear skies in the morning, which enhanced convection. The cleaning effect of rainfall and the rapid change in convection in the early morning should be monitored to evaluate and generalize the gas and particle exchange in a forest.

A number of field studies have provided evidence that biomass burning is one of the major global sources of atmospheric particles. In this study, we have collected $PM_{2.5}$ emitted from biomass burning combusted at open burning and laboratory chamber situations. The open burning experiment was conducted with the cooperation of 9 farmers in Chiba Prefecture, Japan, while the chamber experiment was designed to evaluate the characteristics of chemical components among 14 different plant species. The analyzed categories were $PM_{2.5}$ mass concentration, organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), ionic components ($Na^+$, ${NH_4}^+$, $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, $K^+$, $Cl^-$, ${NO_3}^-$ and ${SO_4}^{2-}$), water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC), water-insoluble inorganic carbon (WIOC), char-EC and soot-EC. OC was the dominant chemical component, accounting for the major fraction of primary $PM_{2.5}$ derived from biomass burning, followed by EC. Ionic components contributed a small portion of $PM_{2.5}$, as well as that of $K^+$. In some cases, $K^+$ is used as biomass burning tracer; however, the observations obtained in this study suggest that $K^+$ may not always be suitable as a tracer for biomass burning emissions. Also, the results of all the samples tested indicate relatively low values of char-EC compared to soot-EC. From our results, careful consideration should be given to the usage of $K^+$ and char-EC as indicators of biomass burning. The calculated ratios of WSOC/OC and WIOC/OC were 55.7% and 44.3% on average for all samples, which showed no large difference between them. The organic materials to OC ratio, which is often used for chemical mass closure model, was roughly estimated by two independent methods, resulting in a factor of 1.7 for biomass burning emissions.

Candida magnoliae, an osmotolerant and erythritol producing yeast, prefers D-fructose to D-glucose as carbon sources. For the investigation of the fructophilic characteristics with respect to sugar transportation, a sequential extraction method using various detergents and ultracentrifugation was developed to isolate cellular membrane proteins in C. magnoliae. Immunoblot analysis with the Pma1 antibody and two-dimensional electrophoresis analysis coupled with MS showed that the fraction II was enriched with membrane proteins. Eighteen proteins out of 36 spots were identified as membrane or membrane-associated proteins involved in sugar uptake, stress response, carbon metabolism, and so on. Among them, three proteins were significantly upregulated under the fructose supplying conditions. The hexose transporter was highly homologous to Ght6p in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, which was known as a predominant transporter for the fructose uptake of S. pombe because it exhibited higher affinity to D-fructose than D-glucose. The physicochemical properties of the ATP-binding cassette transporter and inorganic transporter explained their direct or indirect associations with the fructophilic behavior of C. magnoliae. The identification and characterization of membrane proteins involved in sugar uptake might contribute to the elucidation of the selective utilization of fructose to glucose by C. magnoliae at a molecular level.

Receptor modeling is one of statistical methods to achieve reasonable air pollution strategies. In order to maintain and manage ambient air quality, it is necessary to identify sources and to apportion its sources for ambient particulate matters. The main purpose of the study was to survey seasonal trends of inorganic elements in the coarse and fine particles. Second, this study has attempted emission sources qualitatively by a receptor method, the PMF mo-del. After that. both PMF (positive matrix factorization) model and TTFA (target transformation factor analysis) model were applied to compare and to estimate mass contribution of coarse and fine particle sources at the receptor. A total of 138 sets of samples was collected from 1989 to 1996 by a low volume cascade impactor with 9 size fraction stages at Kyung Hee University in Korea. Sixteen chemical species (Si, Ca, Fe, K, Pb, Na, Zn, Mg, Ba, Ni, V, Mn, Cr, Br, Cu. Co) were characterized by XRF. The study result showed that the weighted arithmetic mean of coarse and fine particles were 51.3 and 54.4 $\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥, respectively. Contribution of both particle fractions were esti-mated using TTFA and PMF models. The number of estimated sources was seven according to TTFA model and 8 according to PMF model. Comparison of TTFA and PMF revealed that both methodologies exhibited similar trends in their contribution pattern. However, large differences between contributions were observed in some sour-ces. The results of this study may help to suggest control strategies in local countries where known source profiles do not exist.
