Biosorbents of nonliving, dried marine brown algae Undaria pinnatifida, Hizikia fusiformis, and Sargassum fulvellum were investigated for their lead biosorption performances. As the amount of biosorbent added was increased, the lead removal by biosorbent materials increased but the lead biosorption capacities decreased. However the lead biosorption capacity by the biosorbent materials increased with increasing initial lead concentration and pH in the range of $C_o\;10\~500\;mg/L$. Among the biosorbent materials used in this study, the lead biosorption capacity in the solutions with no pH adjustment decreased in the following sequence: U. pinnatifida > H. fusiformis > S. fulvellum. Equilibrium parameters based on Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm were determined. It was found that the lead biosorption by biosorbent materials were expressed by the Langmuir isotherm better than the Freundlich isotherm.

The Fucales plants have very homogenous taxonomic characteristics at order level, but show many morphological variatations at species or subspecies levels. This study is one of the serial works to obtain more taxonomic data than morphotaxonomic ones and to clarify the taxonomic ranks and characteristics of Korean Fucales plants through physiological and biochemical analyses. Total lipid compositions of Korean Fucales plants were analyzed by the 3-dimensional TLC method. Major components of phospholipids (PA, PC, PG, PE, DPG, LPE, LPC), neutral fat TG and sterols were commonly contained in each species. Unknown lipids X1, X2 and X3 were contained in genus Sargassum, but Hizikia was lacking X3 and Myagropsis was lacking both X2 and X3. The latter contained unique X8. From the view-point of the phylogeny of lipid metabolism, Sargassum might be more closely related to Hizikia than to Myagropsis. A variant of S. patens from Seongsan showed minute metabolic difference from that of the typical plant; but a variant of S. serratifolium did not show any significant difference from that of the typical plant.

Two known farnesylacetone derivatives (1 and 2) were isolated from the Korean brown alga Sargassum sagamianum off Jeju Island, Korea. Compounds 1 and 2 were identified as (5E,10Z)-6, 10, 14-trimethylpentadeca-5, 10-dien-2, 12-dione and (5E,9E,13E)-6, 10,4-trimethylpentadeca-5,9,13-trien-2,12-dione, respectively, by comparison with the literature data. Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activities with $IC_{50}$ values of 65.0∼48.0 and 34.0∼23.0 $\muM$, respectively.

In continuing search for BChE-inhibitory compounds from Korean marine algae. we found a highly potent inhibitory activity in the methanolic extract of Sargassum species. After partition of the MeOH extract between $CHCl_3$ and 30% MeOH. the former layer was subjected to a series of ODS flash chromatography. silica column chromatography. and preparative TLC to afford three compounds (1-3). Detailed structural elucidation of them is in progress. Compound 1 showed potent BChE-inhibitory activity with $IC_{50}$ values of 11 ng/mL. (omitted)

In continuing search for bioactive compounds from Korean marine algae, we found cholinesterase-inhibitory activity in the methanolic extract of brown alga Sargassum sagamianum. After partitioning between CHCl$_3$ and 30% MeOH, the former layer was purified by a series of ODS flash, silica column, gel-filtration on Sephadex LH-20, and HPLC to give two farnesylacetone derivatives. Their structures were identified by comparison with the literature data. Compounds 1 and 2 showed moderate acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activities with IC$\sub$50/ values of 65.0∼48.0 ${\mu}$M and 34.0∼23.0 ${\mu}$M, respectively. (omitted)

Characteristics of photosynthesis-light and photosynthesis-temperature relationships were seasonally compared among 4 species, two temperate Sargassurn (S. ringgoldianum and S. spathulophyllum) and two temperate kelp (Ecklonia cava and Eisenia bicyclis), growing in the same habitat in Oura Bay, Shimoda, central Japan. The photosynthesis-irradiance (P-I) curve of each species at the in situ temperature and the photosynthesis-temperature (P-T) curve at near saturation irradiance (400μmol·m^(-2)·s^(-1)) were determined by using differential gas-volumeters. Maximum photosynthetic rates (Prnax) for P-I curves of the two Sargassurn species were higher from summer to autumn than from winter to spring, while those of the two kelp species showed little difference among seasons. Net photosynthetic rates (Pn) at 100-400μmol·m^(-2)·s^(-1) of the Sargassurn species were higher than those of the kelp species in autumn, spring and summer, while in winter the rates were about the same between the Sargassurn and kelp species. Among seasons, the light saturation index (1k) values, dark respiration rates and light compensation points of Sargassurn species differed more than those of kelp species. Optimum temperature for P-T curves of Sargassurn species was 29℃ and that of kelp species was 27℃ in summer, while in winter the former was 27℃ and the latter was 25℃. Pn at 400 μmol·m^(-2)·s^(-1) at 10-33℃ of Sargassurn species were considerably higher than those of kelp species from spring to summer, while from autumn to winter the rates at 5-27℃ were about the same between the two. At supra-optimum temperatures, Pn of kelp species decreased more sharply than those of Sargassurn species in each season. These facts indicate that the two temperate Sargassurn species have a higher potential photosynthetic performance under warmer conditions than the two temperate kelp species even though they grow in the same habitat.
