Antifungal metabolites were isolated from a culture of Pseudomonas aurantiaca IB5-10. Chemical structures of the metabolites were elucidated as phenazine-1-carboxylic acid (PCA; 1), 2-hydroxyphenazine (2-OH-PHZ; 2), and cyclo-(L-Pro-L-Val; 3), respectively, based on spectroscopic methods. Among them, 3 was isolated for the first time from this strain. The antifungal activities of 1-3 were evaluated against a variety of plant pathogens. To the best of our knowledge, the antifungal activities of 3 against plant fungal pathogens have been evaluated for the first time in this work. PCA (1) showed the most potent antifungal activities against Phytophthora capsici, Rhizoctonia solani AG-1(IA), and Pythium ultimum with MICs (${\mu}g/ml$) of less than 1.0, 1.3, and 2.0, respectively. On the other hand, 2-OH-PHZ (2) showed potent antifungal activity against R. solani AG-1(IA) with the MIC (${\mu}g/ml$) of 2.0, whereas it showed moderate antifungal activity against P. ultimum with the MIC (${\mu}g/ml$) of 50.0. In addition, 3 showed antifungal activity against only R. solani AG-1(IA).

Objectives: Trachyspermum khasianum H. Wolff is a rare medicinal plant characteristically used by the traditional healers in traditional medicine for the treatment of throat-pain, toothache, and stomach ache. The study was designed to determine the anthelmintic and analgesic properties of the aerial parts of Trachyspermum khasianum H. Wolff (Family: Apiaceae). The aqueous and ethanol extract of T. khasianum H. Wolff was prepared and subjected for evaluation to determine the possible therapeutic effects. Methods: Anthelmintic activities of the extracts were determined by observing the time taken to paralyze and the time taken for the death of earthworms (Eisenia foetida) as compared to the standard drug-Albendazole (20 mg/ml) and control. Analgesic potential of the extracts was evaluated using Eddy's hot plate method to understand the analgesic activity in rats (Wistar rats) at 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg body weight doses and compared with the standard reference (Diclofenac sodium: 10 mg/kg of animals). Results: The extracts showed a significant dose-dependent anthelmintic effect at the different concentrations (10, 20, and 40) mg/ml, compared to that of the standard drug (20 mg/ml). Also, the results suggested that the plant extracts possess significantly analgesic activity in rats. Conclusion: The studies indicate that Trachyspermum khasianum shows anthelmintic and potent analgesic activities. Further research should be carried out to identify the specific phytoconstituents responsible for both analgesic and anthelmintic activities and its possible mechanism of action.

연구배경 : Tetracycline의 흉막강내 주입은 오랫동안 악성 흉막삼출액이나 재발성 기흉을 가진 환자에게 화학적 흉막유착술의 가장 흔한 방법으로 사용되어왔다. 그러나 최근 주사용 tetracycline의 제조가 중단됨에 따라 이를 대체할만한 시약이 필요하게 되었으며, 이에 저자들은 같은 계열의 약제인 doxycycline을 토끼의 흉막강에 주입하여 이의 흉막유착효과를 tetracycline과 비교하고자 하였다. 방법: 평균 2.6 kg의 뉴질랜드 백색 토끼 18 마리를 여섯 마리씩 세 군으로 나누어 각 군에 tetracycline 20 mg/ml/kg, doxycycline 7 mg/ml/kg, doxycycline 20 mg/ml/kg를 우측 흉막강에 주입한 후 제 28일에 개흉술을 시행하여 흉막유착 정도를 비교하였다. 결과: 1) Tetracycline 20 mg/ml/kg를 주입한 여섯 마리의 토끼 중 다섯 마리는 여러 개의 섬유대에 의한 국소적인 흉막유착을 보였으며 나머지 한 마리는 사망하였다. 2) Doxycycline 7 mg/ml/kg를 주입한 여섯 마리의 토끼 중 세 마리는 국소적 흉막유착을 보였으며 나머지 세 마리는 섬유조직에 의한 치밀한 흉막유착을 보였다. 3) Doxycycline 20 mg/ml/kg를 주입한 여섯 마리의 토끼 중 두 마리는 치밀한 흉막유착을 보였으며, 다른 두 마리는 치밀한 흉막유착과 함께 기저 폐실질의 괴사를 보였고 나머지 두 마리는 사망하였다. 결론 : Doxycycline의 흉막유착효과는 tetracycline에 비해 대등하거나 더 강력한 것으로 생각되며, 7mg/ml/kg의 용량으로 별다른 부작용 없이 충분한 흉막유착효과가 얻어졌다.

In this study, the serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D(25-(OH)D) was measured by high pressure liquid chromatography(HPLC), and factors affecting it were investigated in 72 young adults age ranging from 21 years to 39 years with normal bone density. The mean level of serum 25-(OH)D was 20.0$\pm$6.8ng/ml in males and 26.1$\pm$12.3ng/ml in females, which was significantly higher in females (p<0.01). The serum level of parathyroid hormone(PTH) showed a negative correlation with that of 25-(OH)D(p<0.05). Time spent outdoors in a day correlated positively with the serum level of 25-(OH)D(p<0.01). During the day, a specific time between 12:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. showed the most significant correlation with the level of 25-(OH)D(p<0.005). Among the nutrients studied, fat and vitamin D intake were positively correlated with the serum 25-(OH)D level. Stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that the serum level of 25-(OH)D could be fit by vitamin D intake(34.7% explained), serum PTH level (27.3% explained) and the time spent outdoors during the specific time(28.4% explained).1996)

It is essential to determine a proper earthquake time history as a seismic load in a seismic design for a critical structure. In the code, a seismic load should satisfy a design response spectrum and include the characteristic of a target fault. The characteristic of a fault can be represented by a definition of a type of possible earthquake time history shape that occurred in a target fault. In this paper, the pseudo-basis function is proposed to be used to construct a specific type of earthquake, including the characteristic of a target fault. The pseudo-basis function is derived from analyzing the earthquake time history of specific fault harmonic wavelet transform. To show the feasibility of this method, the proposed method was applied to the faults causing the Gyeong-Ju ML5.8 and Pohang ML5.3 earthquakes.

고추(Capsicum annuum L.)는 전 세계적으로 식용 및 의약용으로 널리 사용되는 향신 식물이다. 본 연구에서는 한국 재래종 5종(유월초, 수비초, 수미향, 고운빛, 및 칠성초)과 개량종 5종(다복, 청양, 충성, 올복합 및 신홍길동)의 에탄올 추출물을 조제하고, 추출물의 색차, polyphenol 함량, 항산화, 항당뇨 및 항응고 활성을 비교하였다. 개량종 고추 추출물은 재래종 고추 추출물에 비해 높은 적색과 낮은 황색을 보였다. 고추 추출물의 polyphenol 및 flavonoid 함량 분석결과, 유월초와 수미향 추출물에서 유의하게 높았으며, 이들은 우수한 DPPH 음이온 소거 활성, ABTS 양이온 소거 활성 및 환원력을 보였다. Nitrite 소거능의 경우 칠성초, 유월초 및 다복 품종에서 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 또한 항당뇨 활성은 수비초, 수미향 및 고운빛 추출물에서 우수하였다. 항혈전 활성 평가에서, 유월초 추출물은 5 mg/ml 농도에서 용매대조군과 비교하여 thrombin time을 1.61배 연장시켰으며, 다복 추출물은 prothrombin time 및 activated partial thromboplastin time을 각각 1.33배 및 2.21배 연장시켜 항혈전 활성을 확인하였다. 또한 모든 고추 추출물은 5 mg/ml 농도까지 적혈구 용혈 활성을 나타내지 않았다. 이러한 결과는 국내 재래종 고추를 이용한 항산화, 항당뇨 및 항혈전 소재 개발이 가능함을 제시하고 있으며, 향후 국내 재래종 고추 품종이 나고야 의정서 발효에 대응하면서 막대한 종자 사용료를 지불하고 있는 개량종 고추를 대치할 수 있음을 제시하고 있다.

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of various discontinuous Percoll washing conditions on motile sperm recovery rate and motion kinematics. Frozen semen samples from 3 bulls (0.5 ml plastic straws, 6% glycerol in egg yolk-Tris-glycerol extender) were thawed in $37^{\circ}C$ water bath for 1 min. After thawing, the mixed semen samples were randomly allocated to 12 treatment groups. Briefly, the spermatozoa were centrifuged for three different time lengths (10, 20, and 30 min) at two gravities ($300{\times}g$ and $700{\times}g$) through two concentrations of discontinuous Percoll density gradient of 1 ml 90%: 1 ml 45% Percoll and 2 ml 90%: 2 ml 45% Percoll to remove extender, debris, and dead spermatozoa. Motile sperm recovery rate and motion kinematics were evaluated by computer assisted sperm analyzer using Makler counting chamber. Sperm motility (%) and motile sperm recovery rate showed similar pattern in all treatment groups. However, sperm motility (%) and motile sperm recovery rate were highest at $700{\times}g$ for 30 min through a discontionous Percoll density gradient of 1 ml 90%: 1 ml 45% Percoll. There were no significant differences in motion kinematics after various Percoll washings. These results suggest that force of centrifugation, centrifugation time, and Percoll volume significantly affect motile sperm recovery rate.
