  • In order to elucidate influence of nutritional status on rice brown spot caused by Cochliobolus miyabeanus, rice cultivation soils and rice straws were collected from paddy fields where ice brown spot occurred severely, moderately, a little and none respectively. Rice plant materials were analyzed to measure inorganic nutrients in rice straws and rice seeds. Analysis of chemical properties of rice paddy soil showed that EC and contents of available phosphate, cation and silicic acid in soil with severe infections were lower than those in healthy soil. This result suggests that amount and holding capacity of nutrient contents in soils collected from paddy field with infection of C. miyabeanus are relatively low compared to those in soils collected from healthy paddy field. Analysis of inorganic nutrients in rice straws showed that amount of macronutrient elements such as silicic acids, available phosphate and total nitrogen, and micronutrients such as copper, iron and zinc in rice straws from paddy field with infection were lower than those in healthy soil. Especially amount of iron and silicic acid were very low in rice straws from paddy field soils with infection Amount of inorganic nutrients such as iron and zinc in rice seeds was the same trend as those of rice straws. These results showed that one of major factors affecting rice brown spot was amount of nutrient contents in soil and rice straw.

  • Generally, organic paint on steel towers can guarantee durability in normal condition but occasionally shows its deterioration on the power line tower and electric power facilities, exposed to light(ultra violet) or heat. The objective of this study is to develope the inorganic paint material based on fluid silicic acid for steel electric power facilities. For the purpose, optimal mixture proportion is derived through 6 preliminary test and, additionally physical and durability performance test are carried out for selected specimens. The performances of developed organic paint material is similar to those of organic paint material. If resistance to chemical attack is improved, the developed inorganic paint is evaluated to replace the organic paint and obtain wide application.

  • Lipids of kidney bean were extracted by the mixture of chloroform-methanol-water (1:2:0.8 v/v), fractionated into neutral lipids, glycolipids and phospholipids by silicic acid column chromatography, and the composition of these lipid classes were determined by TLC and GLC. The lipid content of kidney bean was 1.9%, and the lipid was consisted of 48.3% neutral lipids. 7.5% glycolipids and 44.2% phospholipids. Triglyceride was the major component of neutral lipids (64.6%). The major glycolipid and phosphlolipid were esterified steryl glycoside (38.3%) and phosphatidyl choline (32.9%). The major fatty acids of kidney bean lipid were linolenic, linoleic, palmitic and oleic acid. Linolenic acid contents were very high to be 37.1% in total lipid and 50.5% in neutral lipid.

  • This study was devised to observe the antitumor activity of mugwort (Artemisia princeps Pampan.) against ICR mice inoculated with sarcoma-180 cells. The antitumor compounds were partially purified from petroleum ether extract of mugwort by silicic acid column chromatography. The active fraction used in in vivo test was obtained under the elution with acetone in silicic acid column chromatography. When the acetone fraction was intraperitoneally injected to the mice which had been subcutaneously inoculated on the left groin with sarcoma-180, the growth rate of tumor (sarcoma-180 mass) was inhibited by 30%. In case the acetone fraction was injected to the mice which had been inoculated intraperitoneally with sarcoma-180, the average life span was prolonged by 20%. After the injection of the active fraction, the spleen index and ${\gamma}-globulin$ ratio (%) were increased significantly (p<0.05). The administration of acetone fraction did not cause any abnormality in the body and the homeostasis of mice. Those observations suggest that the acetone fraction of mugwort extract has an antitumor effect in vivo.

  • Silicatein-${\alpha}$, the enzyme extracted from silica spicules in glass sponges, has been studied extensively in the way of chemistry from 1999, in which the pioneering work by Morse, D. E. - the discovery of the enzymatic hydrolysis in Silicatein-${\alpha}$ - was published. Since its reaction conditions are physiologically favored, synthesis of various materials, such as gallium oxide, zirconium oxide, and silicon oxide, was achieved without any hazardous wastes. Although some groups synthesized oxide films and particles, they have not achieved yet controlled morphogenesis in the reaction conditions mentioned above. With the knowledge of catalytic triad involved in hydrolysis of silicone alkoxide and oligomerization of silicic acid, we designed the novel peptide amphiphiles to not only form self-assembled structure, but also display similar activities to silicatein-${\alpha}$. Designed templates were able to self-assemble into left-handed helices for the peptide amphiphiles with L-form amino acid, catalyzing polycondensation of silicic acids onto the surface of them. It led to the formation of silica helices with 30-50 nm diameters. These results were characterized by various techniques, including SEM, TEM, and STEM. Given the situation that nano-bio-technology, the bio-applicable technology in nanometer scale, has been attracting considerable attention; this result could be applied to the latest applications in biotechnology, such as biosensors, lab-on-a-chip, biocompatible nanodevices.

  • Using the lipids extracted from Korean yam(Dioscorea) tubers, D. batatas, D. aimadoimo and D. japonica, fractionation and identification of lipid components and their fatty acid compositions were analysed. Lipid contents determined by Folch's method in D. batatas, D. aimadoimo and D. japonica were 11.0 mg/g, 11.4 mg/g and 6.6 mg/g, respectively. Lipids extracted were fractionated into neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid by silicic acid column chromatography. The content of neutral lipid was over about 60% in lipid. Neutral lipid was composed of sterol ester, triglyceride, 1,3-diglyceride, 1,2-diglyceride and monoglyceride. Main constituents of glycolipid were acylsterylglycoside, monogalactosyldiglyceride, sterylglycoside, digalactosyldiglyceride and sulfolipid, and phospholipid contained phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylinositol. The fatty acids of the total lipid and its three lipid fractions were analyzed by GC. The major fatty acids were palmitic and linoleic acids. Content of the saturated fatty acids was less than that of the unsaturated fatty acids.

  • Nonvolatile organic acids were determined in raw Chinese cabbage, Kimchis fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ and at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. Total acids were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography and quantitative determination of individual acids was performed by silicic acid partition column chromatography. Acids were identified qualitatively by paper chromatography. Palatability of Kimchis was evaluated by nine pannels. Results were as follows: Maleic, fumaric, lactic, succinic, malonic, oxalic, glycolic, malic, citric, tartaric, sulphuric and phosphoric acid were found in raw Chinese cabbage. Kimchis fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$, and at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. In raw Chinese cabbage, most of organic acids were in salt form and malic acid was highest in amount. In Kimchi fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$, the amount of lactic acid and succinic acid was higher than that in Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$, and, tartaric, oxalic, malic, malonic, maleic, glycolic and fumaric acids were less than those in Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. Kimchi fermented at $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ had a more flavorous sour taste than Kimchi fermented at $22^{\circ}{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. It is assumed that large amount of lactic acid and succinic acid in Kimchi fermented st $6^{\circ}{\sim}7^{\circ}C$ have a connection with flavorous sour taste.
