본 연구의 목적은 그라비올라 잎의 항산화 효능과 멜라닌 생성 촉진효과를 조사하는 것이다. 먼저 AMME와 유기용매 별 분획물의 항산화 효능을 확인하기 위해 DPPH radical 소거능과, reducing power를 수행하였다. AMME와 유기용매별 분획물은 농도에 비례하여 항산화 효능이 증가하였으며, 그 중 ethyl acetate 분획물에서 가장 높은 항산화 효능을 보였다. 항산화 효능을 보인 분획물들의 멜라닌 생성에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 tyrosinase activity를 수행한 결과 AMME, ethyl acetate, hexane 분획물에서 농도에 비례하여 멜라닌 생성 촉진효능이 나타났다. 그 중에서 AMME 유기 용매 별 분획물에서 멜라닌 합성 효능이 가장 좋은 hexane 분획물을 칼럼크로마토그래피를 통해 12가지 분획물로 나누어 항산화 실험과 멜라닌 합성실험을 수행하였다. 그 중 Fig. 8에서 DPPH radical 소거능과 환원력이 가장 우수한 것으로 나타났다. In vitro melanin 합성 실험 결과, Fr. 7은 $64{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 260%의 멜라닌 합성 효능을 보였고, Fr. 8은 $64{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 184%의 멜라닌 합성 효능이 관찰되었다. 최종적으로 B16F1 세포에서 Fr. 8의 $4{\mu}g/ml$ 농도에서 34%의 멜라닌 합성 효능을 보였다. LC-MS 결과 Fr. 7이 617의 분자량을 나타냈고, Fr. 8이 분자량 619의 분자량을 나타냈다. FT-IR 결과 Fig. 7과 Fig. 8 모두 Bis(2-hydroxyethly)dimerate와 비슷한 유효성분을 나타냈다. 이상의 결과로 그라비올라 잎은 천연 항산화제 또는 멜라닌 생성 촉진효과와 관련 있는 모발 제품 개발에 응용가능성이 있다고 판단된다.

황칠나무 잎과 줄기를 분리하여 각각 methanol 추출하여, 계통분획상법에 따라 dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, butanol로 분획하였다. 분획물로 실시한 TLC에서 알칼로이드 성분으로 분리되는 성분을 확인할 수 있었다. 잎과 줄기 모두 ethyl acetate분획물은 $IC_{50}$ $30{\mu}g/m{\ell}$으로 높게 측정 되었으며, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane, butanol분획물 순으로 저해 활성이 높게 나타났다. Acetyl cholinesterase inhibition assay를 실시한 결과 황칠나무 잎과 줄기 모두 dichloromethane, ethyl acetate, butanol 분획물 순으로 저해 활성이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 가장 높은 활성을 보인 황칠나무 줄기와 잎의 dichloromethane 분획물의 알칼로이드 함량이 상대적으로 높은 것으로 보아 알칼로이드 성분에 의한 것으로 유추 할 수 있으므로, 알칼로이드 성분의 동정 및 성분구조의 규명을 통하여 AChE저해 활성을 이용한 신경관련 질환에 도움을 줄 수 있는 천연물의 개발이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

A sample of soil humic acid (HA) was divided by ultrafiltration (UF) into five fractions of different molecular size (UF₁: > 300, UF₂: 100~300, UF₃: 30~100, UF₄: 10~30, UF₅: 1~10 kilodaltons). Apparent average molecular weight (M_w) of the HA fractions were measured using high performance size exclusion chromatography (HPSEC), and the chemical and structural properties of the five HA fractions were characterized by elemental compositions (H/C, O/C and w ((2O + 3NH)/ C)) and ultraviolet-visible absorption ratios (SUVA, A_4/6). The organic carbon normalized-sorption coefficients (Koc) for the binding of phenanthrene to the HA fractions were determined by fluorescence quenching and relationship between the sorption coefficients and structural characteristics of the HA fractions were investigated. The elemental analysis and UV-vis spectral data indicated that the HA fractions with higher molecular weights have grater aliphatic character and lower contents of oxygen, while the HA fractions with lower molecular size have greater aromatic character and molecular polarity that correspond to greater SUVA and internal oxidation values (w). The log Koc values (L/kg C) were gradual increased from 4.45 for UF₅ to 4.87 for UF1. The correlation study between the structural descriptors of the HA fractions and log Koc values of phenanthrene show that the magnitude of Koc values positively correlated with $M_w$ and H/C, while negatively correlated with the independent descriptors of the O/C, w, SUVA and A_4/6.

Concentrations of several heavy metals in soils derived from black shale and slate have been reported to be higher than the average concentrations in non-polluted soils. This study describes and characterizes soil minerals, and investigates the distribution of heavy metals in soils, and then examines their relationship. Soils in the study area are mainly consist of guartz and feldspars with minor amount of kaolin, illite, vermiculite, chlorite and illite-vermiculite interstratified minerals. Mineral compositions are similar in mountain-, farmland-, and paddy-soils. The residual soils derived from sandy phyllites contain less illites than those from black shale and black slate. Heavy metals appear to be more concentrated in soils than in rocks. The concentrate ratios in soils to rocks ranges 1.1 times for Cr, 2 for Cu, 1.4 for Ni. The contour maps of Cd, Zn, Pb, Cu contents using 0.43N $HNO_3$-extraction imply that these elements are highly concentrated in the soils near the past uranium exploration region, coal seams, black slate beds and tailings than other parts of the study area. The proportions of the day in most soils are less than 10%. In spite of small proportions of the clay, the concentrations of heavy metals from clay fractions to the total concentrations are high: 1~2.4 times for Co, 1.4~2.5 for Cu, 1.2~2.6 for Ni, 1~5 for Pb, 1~2.7 for Zn and 1.6~1.8 for Cr and V. The contents of organic carbons in clay fractions are also 1.5~3.9 times higher than in silt and sand fractions. Cu, Pb and organic carbons show positive relationship in all size fractions. In the size-fractionated soil profile samples, the contents of heavy metals and organic carbons show analogous trends with depth. For the clay fractions of soil profile samples, the contents of heavy metals with depth have analogous trends to abundances of vermiculites, which have the high CEC in main clay minerals.

인삼의 메탄을 추출물을 몇 가지 유기용매를 사용하여 여러 분획으로 나누어서 이 분획들이 아미노아실-tRNA 합성효소의 활동성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 백삼과 홍삼에 모두 아미노아실-합성효소의 활동성에 양성적인 효과를 나타내는 분획을 얻었다. 백삼의 경우에는 전체 메탄을 추출물에 그 성분이 있으며, 홍삼의 경우에는 메탄 올 추출물을 에테르로 추출한 분획에 그 성분이 있었다. 그러므로 이 효소에 양성적인 효과를 미치는 성분은 다소 무극성인 물질일 것으로 추측된다.

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.

The study of carbonaceous aerosols in the atmosphere is critical to understand the role of aerosols in human health and climate. Using standardized thermal optical transmittance methods, organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), and water soluble organic carbon (WSOC) were determined using a combustion sampling system for four types of agricultural crop residues (rice straw, red pepper stems, soybean stems, and green perilla stems) and eight types of forest trees (pine stems, pine needles, ginkgo stems, ginkgo leaves, maple stems, maple leaves, cherry stems, and cherry leaves). The aerosol particles between 0.056 and $5.6{\mu}m$ in size were analyzed using a Micro-Orifice Uniform Deposit Impactor (MOUDI). In the current study, the Carbonaceous Thermal Distribution (CTD) by carbon analyzer was discussed in order to understand the carbon fractions from the twelve types of biomass burning. Also, the concentration of OC, EC, WSOC, and water insoluble organic carbon (WIOC) detected in the emissions were described.

The effects of various organic wastes on anaerobic fermentative hydrogen production were studied using enriched mixed microflora in batch tests. Rotten fruit, corn powder and organic wastewater enriched with sulfate (up to 1,000 mg/L) were used for experiments. Maximum hydrogen production (547.1 mL) was observed from rotten apple with initial substrate concentration of 132.2 g COD/L. The experimental result on sulfate enriched organic wastewater indicated that hydrogen production is not adversely influenced by relatively high sulfate concentration. Residual sulfate content remained at 96-98 % after 75 hours of reaction, which showed that no major sulfate reduction was occurred at pH 5.3-5.5 in the reactor. The volatile fatty acid (VFA) fractions produced during the reaction was in the order of butyrate > acetate > propionate in all experiments. The results of this study would be useful for controlling the conditions on fermentative hydrogen production using different feedstocks.

We review work performed by our group and collaborators in the area of exciton formation. There are three components: (i) measurement of singlet fractions, (ii) analysis of magnetic resonance measurements, and (iii) models of exciton formation. We find that the fraction of singlet excitons is a controllable quantity, pointing the way to a new generation of all-fluorescent organic light emitting devices.
