Estuary lakes constructed for agricultural water resources development projects have encountered eutrophication problems. Natural water purification function of wetland is considered for nutrient removal from inflowing stream. A constructed wetland was designed and installed for pollutant loading abatement in estuary lake Koheung. Combined pond-wetland system was adopted. In this system primary and secondary ponds and six wetland cells were interconnected. Reed and cattail were selected for wetland vegetation and planted in the wetland cells. In this paper, design criteria of the pond-wetland system in temperate weather zone is presented.

To develop an artificial bone substitute that is gradually degraded and replaced by the regenerated natural bone, the authors designed a composite that is consisted of calcium phosphate and collagen. To use as the structural matrix of the composite, collagen was purified from human umbilical cord. The obtained collagen was treated by pepsin to remove telopeptides, and finally, the immune-free atel- ocollagen was produced. The cross linked atelocollagen was highly resistant to the collagenase induced collagenolysis. The cross linked collagen demonstrated an improved tensile strength.

Cotyledons of perilla6 were cultured on MS medium containing 0.5 mg/l NAA and 0.5 mg/l BA for 7 weeks. The activity of perilla peroxidase was observed to increase following culture stages as assessed by peroxidase assay. A peroxidase (POD) was purified from perilla tissue cultured on MS medium for 7 weeks. The peroxidase was purified using ion exchange and gel nitration chromatography. The perilla peroxidase had a molecular mass of 30 kDa by SDS-PAGE. We showed that the N-terminal amino acid sequence of this protein shared 67% identity with the tea peroxidase. As indicated by SDS-PAGE, the banding pattern of the 30 kDa polypeptide present in total soluble protein from perilla tissue was increased following culture stages. Immunoblot analysis indicated that perilla peroxidase protein appeared after 3 weeks of perilla tissue culture, and continued to increase with extended duration of tissue culture for at least 7 weeks.

The purpose of this study is to explore the ecosystem service and benefit indicators of natural seaweed beds. Ecosystems of natural seaweed beds provide a wide range of services and benefits to human society including provisioning services, regulating services, supporting services, and cultural services. Indicators for each of the ecosystem services are chosen by marine plants ecologists and as follows. Ecosystem indicators of natural seaweed beds for provisioning services are well-being food(amount of seaweed harvested/amount of fish landed, fish biomass, area of natural seaweed beds, the number of species, contribution to the second production), raw materials(amount of biomass by breed, amount of aquaculture feed), genetic resources(amount of genetic material extracted, amount of genetic material contained by age and habitat), and medicinal resources(amount of medicinal material extracted). Ecosystem indicators of natural seaweed beds for regulating services are air purification(amount of fine dust/NOx or $SO_2$ captured), climate regulation(amount of $CO_2$ sequestered), waste treatment(amount of N, P stored, biochemical degradation capacity COD), and costal erosion prevention(length and change of natural coast line, amount of sediment prevented). Ecosystem indicators of natural seaweed beds for supporting services are lifecycle and maintenance(primary production, contribution to the second production) and gene pool protection(amount of compositional factors in ecosystem, introduced species). Ecosystem indicators of natural seaweed beds for cultural services are recreation and tourism(the number of visits of an area) and information for cognitive development(amount of time spent in education, research and individual learning about ecosystem of natural seaweed beds).

A novel suspension-phase enzyme reaction system for the intermolecular transglycosylation of L-ascorbic acid into 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid supplementing extrusion starch as the glycosyl donor was developed using cyclodextrin glucanotransferase from Thermoanaerobacter sp. A high conversion yield compared to the conventional soluble-phase enzyme reaction system using cyclodextrins and soluble starch was achieved. The optimal reaction conditions were 2,000 units of cycIodextrin glucanotransferase, 20 g/l of L-ascorbic acid, and 50 g/l of extrusion starch at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 h. The new suspension-phase enzyme reaction system also exhibited several distinct advantages other than a high conversion yield, including a lower accumulation of oligosaccharides and easily separable residual extrusion starch by centrifugation or filtration in the reaction mixture, which will facilitate the purification of 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid. The new suspension-phase enzyme reaction system seems to be potentially applicable as the industrial process for the production of thermally and oxidatively stable 2-O-${\alpha}$-D-glucopyranosyl L-ascorbic acid.

A concise and efficient one-pot synthesis of chroman-2,4-dione-based HKA derivatives by three component reaction of HKAs, triethoxymethane and 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives under solvent-free and catalyst-free conditions is described. This protocol has many advantages, in that the GAP (Group-Assistant-Purification) chemistry process is involved in this method. As a result, the experimenter can avoid cumbersome process steps such as traditional chromatography and recrystallization purifications. The desired products can be easily obtained by washing the crude products with 95% EtOH.

Full-length chloride intracellular channel protein 1 (CLIC1) is a member of the family of proteins related to bovine chloride intracellular channel p64. Mutations in the SEDL gene cause spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia tarda (SEDT), a rare X-linked chondrodysplasia. The link between the intracellular chloride channels and SEDL is an important step toward understanding their functional interplay. In the present study, CLIC1 protein was subcloned into the pGEX-KG vector and overexpressed in XL-1 blue cells. We developed a large-scale expression system composed of glutathione S-transferase (GST) fused with a 240-amino-acid CLIC1 protein in Escherichia coli. The soluble CLIC1 protein was successfully purified to homogeneity, and its purity, identity, activity and conformation were determined using SDS-PAGE, MALDI-MS, biophotometer and circular dichroism spectroscopic studies. The binding of both CLIC1 and SEDL proteins in vitro was detected by BIAcore biosensor and fluorescence measurements.

The ${alpha}$-amylase gene of Bacillus licheniformis has been cloned and two mutant ${alpha}$-amylase genes of which histidine 235 was changed to glutamine (H235Q) and aspartic acid 328 to glutamic acid (D328E) have been produced by site-directed mutagenesis. The kinetic parameters, optimum pH and thermostability of wild type(WT) and these two mutant amylases expressed in E. coli MC1061 have been compared after purification. The $K_m$ values of WT, H235Q and D328E ${alpha}$-amylases were 0.22%, 0.73%, and 0.80% respectively, when using starch as the substrate. The $V_max$ values of wild type ${alpha}$ -amylase and mutant ${alpha}$-amylases were 0.6-0.7%/minute, and did not show any significant differences among them. The optimum pH of D328E ${alpha}$-amylase was shifted to more acidic pH. Also, the thermostability of H235Q ${alpha}$-amylase was increased compared to the wild type ${alpha}$-amylase.

The purification of the MeOH extract from Impatiens basamina by repeated column chromatography led to the isolation of one new tetrahydronaphthalene (1), together with eleven known compounds (2 - 12). The structure of the new compound (1) was determined by spectral data analysis ($^1H$ and $^{13}C$-NMR, $^1H-^1H$ COSY, HSQC, HMBC, NOESY, and HR-ESI-MS). Isolated compounds (1 - 12) were evaluated for their inhibitory effects on NO production in LPS-activated murine microglial BV-2 cells and their effects on NGF secretion from C6 glioma cells. Compounds 3, 7, and 10 reduced NO levels in LPS-activated murine microglial cells with $IC_{50}$ values of 26.89, 25.59, and $44.21{\mu}M$, respectively. Compounds 1, 5, and 9 upregulated NGF secretion to $153.09{\pm}4.66$, $156.88{\pm}8.86$, and $157.34{\pm}3.30%$, respectively.
