  • In order to investigate the scavenging property of airborne carbonaceous particles by precipitations, rainwater, snow sample, and total suspended particulate matter (TSP) were collected at a heavily industrialized urban site. Elemental carbon (EC) contents of both rainwater and snow water were deter-mined using elemental analysis system. EC concentrations in rain samples varied from 33.6 to 166.6 $\mu\textrm{g}$ L$^{-1}$ with an average 47.2 $\mu\textrm{g}$ L$^{-1}$ . On the other hand, those of snow samples in three times snow events were ranged from 122.4 to 293.3 $\mu\textrm{g}$ L$^{-1}$ . As might be expected, EC showed the significantly high scavenging rate at the initial rainfall. The average total carbon (TC) scavenging rate by washout mechanisms was 57.6% for five rainfall events. The scavenging rate of EC gradually increased in proportion to the increasing rainfall intensity and rainfall amount.

  • The main aim of this study is to establish methods of morphological preservation and elemental quantification for individual snow crystals. Individual snow crystals were collected at a height of 20 m above ground level. To stabilize and preserve the original morphologies of the snow crystals, cyanoacrylate, which has been used to fix liquid droplets, was applied (Kasahara et al., 2000). Several different kinds of snow crystals (dendrite, sectored plate, quasi-sectored plate, and hexagonal plate) were successively stabilized using this method. The stabilized snow crystals were pretreated with acetone, and then the elemental components contained in a whole snow crystal were quantified with the Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) analytical technique. The snow crystal residual composition determined in the present study was dominated by sulfur and mineral components, and the elemental mass showed an apparent crystal size dependence, where the elemental mass gradually decreased as the crystal size increased.

  • 강설과 강우에서의 이온성분 차이와 강설이 겨울철 강수의 화학적 특성에 미치는 영향을 파악하기 위하여 전북 익산지역에서 1995년부터 2000년까지 강우와 강설의 포집이 가능한 매 $11\sim12$월과 $1\sim2$월 동안에 자동강수채취장치를 사용하여 강수를 포집한 후 pH와 전기전도도 그리고 수용성 이온성분의 농도를 측정하였다. 겨울철 강수의 평균 pH는 4.72이었으며, 강수의 침적형태에 따라서는 강설(5.05)보다 강우(4.67)에서 높은 산성도를 나타내었다. pH 5.0 이하의 저 pH 발생빈도는 강우의 경우 약 73%이었으며, 강설은 30%이었다. 이온성분의 경우 강설은 강우에 비해 해염에서 기원하고 있는 이온성분들의 농도가 높게 나타났는데, 특히 $Cl^-$, $Na^+$, $Mg^{2+}$ 의 경우 3배 이상의 농도 차이를 나타내었다. 해염기원 성분을 제외할 경우 강우와 강설 모두 음이온에서는 $nss-SO_4^{2-}$$NO_3^-$가 그리고 양이온에서는 $NH_4^+$$nss-Ca^{2+}$가 주성분인 것으로 나타났다. 이중 $nss-SO_4^{2-}$는 강우에서 1.3배 높은 농도를 나타낸 반면, $nss-Ca^{2+}$$NO_3^-$의 경우 강설에서 각각 1.5배와 1.3배 높은 농도를 나타내었다. 겨울철 강수 중 $nSS-SO_4^{2-}/NO_3^-$의 당량농도비는 2.4이었는데 이것은 강수의 산성도에 대한 $H_2SO_4$의 기여율이 71%이고 그 나머지가 $HNO_3$에 의한 것임을 의미한다. 강우와 강설에서는 각각 2.7과 1.5를 나타내었는데 이것은 입자상의 $SO_4^{2-}$$NO_3^-$보다 가스상의 $HNO_3$가 강설에서 효율적으로 제거되기 때문으로 국외의 다른 실측 연구결과와도 일치하고 있으며, 대기에어로졸의 세정이론과도 잘 부합되는 것으로 나타났다. 익산지역의 겨울철 강우와 강설 모두 $nss-SO_4^{2-}$$NO_3^-$가 국내 외 비오염지역에 비해 고농도로 검출되었지만, 이에 대응하는 알칼리성의 $NH_4^+$, $nss-Ca^{2+}$, $nss-K^+$ 등이 존재함으로써 중화작용이 이 지역 강수의 중요한 특징으로 나타났다. 그러나 강우와 강설에서의 이온성분의 차이 그리고 산성원인물질에 대한 이들 알칼리성 물질의 중화능 차이에 의해 강우에 비해 강설의 산성도가 낮은 것으로 나타났으며, 결과적으로 강설은 겨울철 강수의 산성도를 완화시키는 역할을 하는 것으로 파악되었다.

  • We investigated the antioxidant and angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activities of red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicas shell (RSCS) hydrolysate by enzymatic hydrolysis and its molecular weight cut-off fractions. The RSCS hydrolysate was fractionated through two ultrafiltration membranes of 3 and 10 kDa cut-offs. Three fractions (<3 kDa, 3-10 kDa, and >10 kDa) were evaluated for total amino acid composition, antioxidant activities using 2'-azino-bis[3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid] ($ABTS^+$) radical scavenging and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities and reducing power assays, and ACE inhibitory activity using Hou's method. Although all fractions showed activity, the <3 kDa fraction of RSCS hydrolysate exhibited the greatest $ABTS^+$ radical scavenging, SOD-like and ACE inhibitory activities. However, these fractions exhibited low reducing power. These results suggest that the low-molecular-weight enzymatic hydrolysate of RSCS could be used as a functional ingredient to control oxidative stress and ACE activity.

  • 중국 운남성 리장지방에 자생하는 리장설차의 화장품적 적용 가능성을 분석 하였다. 우선 리장 설차의 DNA 분석을 통해서 Nekemias grossedentata (N. grossedentata) 라는 종을 확인한 후, 대표적인 차인 녹차와 각 효능분석에 대표적인 대조군을 사용하여 실험하였다. 먼저 리장 설차는 70% (v/v)에탄올 수용액으로 추출하였다. 리장설차 추출물내의 폴리 페놀함량 (gallic acid equivalent, 23.9 ± 3.2 mg/mL)은 녹차(16.4 ± 2.3 mg/mL)보다 많은 양을 포함 하고 있었다. 한편 추출물내의 고형분을 기준으로 항산화 활성(라디칼소거, IC50 104 ㎍/mL), Tyrosinase 효소 억제 활성(미백, IC50 40.7 ㎍/mL), 대장균 성장 억제 활성(방부: IC50 2.85 mg/mL)을 분석한 결과 녹차(항산화, 라디칼 소거, IC50 234 ㎍/mL) 보다 우수한 것 확인 하였다. 또한 항산화 (비타민C, IC50 108 ㎍/mL), 미백 (비타민C: IC50 80 ㎍/mL), 방부(메틸 파라벤: IC50 4.35 mg/mL)등의 기존에 사용되던 활성물질과도 유사한 효능을 보여 주었. 그러나 콜라게네이즈 억제 활성(주름) 은 녹차가 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 이를 통해 리장 설차의 화장품적 적용 가능성이 높은 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • To investigate the physio-chemical components and properties of aerosol particles in urban area sampling of aerosol particles was carried out in the campus of Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan, during snowfall. Aerosol particles were collected on millipore filter papers using a low volume air sampler. Their shapes, sizes and chemical components were analyzed by a SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) and an EDX(Energy Dispersive X-ray). As a results, ice crystals of dendrite and column types were predominantly shown at mature and developing stage of snowfall intensity. The denerite and sector plate types of ice crystals were mainly originated from the sea but column types were come from soil. Scavenging effect by snowfall was greatly also shown at dendrite type ice crystals that embryo was fully developd. Al, Si elements were shown at high frequencies as compared with others. Na, Cl components were especially shown at high frequencies under the sea-breeze wind during snowfall. Anthropogenic aerosol particles had shown with irregular shapes and sizes, relatively. Mainly 3-7$\mu$m aerosol particles were abundant and coarse particles also could be seen during snowfall. Ca, Zn, Fe components mainly caused by spike tires from vehicles in winter season were dominant before snowfall, however the element S mainly caused by human activity was rich after snowfall. The pH values of snow in Sapporo city were higher than those at coastal area. The concentration of chemical components in aerosol particles was also affected by surface winds. Aerosol particles in urban area, Sapporo were mainly affected by human activities like vehicles and combustion with wind system. And their types were related with snowfall intensity.
