본 연구는 한국과 미국의 수출입에 따른 산업별 독성물질(유해화학물질) 배출량 이전관계를 규명한 것이다. 분석에 이용된 자료는 한국과 미국에서 공동적으로 조사하는 51종의 독성물질 배출량과 2000년의 국제산업연관표이다. 분석결과, 한국의 경우, 총배출 강도가 높은 산업은 금속, 화학, 금속기계 등이며, 미국은 전자 및 가전, 화학, 플라스틱 및 고무 등에서 높은 배출강도를 나타내고 있다. 한국의 대(對)미국 수출구조는 미국의 대(對)한국 수출구조에 비해 자국의 환경에 불리한 측면을 가지고 있다. 즉, 미국의 대(對)한국 수출은 미국내 배출량 증가에 상대적으로 낮게 기여하고 있으나, 한국의 대(對)미국 수출은 한국내 배출량 증가에 상대적으로 크게 기여하고 있다.

Objectives: Neuralgia-pharmacopuncture (NP) was recently developed as a water-soluble type of pharmacopuncture inspired by CS (care special pain)-pharmacopuncture. I aimed to evaluate the toxic response and approximate lethal dose of when NP when administered intramuscularly to Sprague Dawley rats. Methods: The experimental group was divided into the NP test substance group and the saline control group and administered at a dose of 1.0 mL/animal to the posterior thigh muscles on both sides using a 1 mL syringe; each group consisted of five males and five females. Each rat was monitored for clinical signs and changes in body weight for 14 days after a single intramuscular injection. After completing observation, necropsy findings and localized tolerance at the injection site were assessed via gross necropsy and histopathological examination. Results: No deaths occurred in the NP or control group, regardless of sex. During the observation period, no changes (such as general symptoms, weight change, or visual observation results at the time of autopsy) were judged to be due to the test substance. Histopathological examination showed no changes at the administration site judged to be caused by the test substance in either the male or female test substance administration groups. In addition, mononuclear cell infiltration of the outer membrane of the femoris muscle at the administration site was observed at the same frequency and extent in the control and NP groups, and was judged to be caused by physical stimulation by the injection needle; therefore, it had no toxicological significance. Conclusion: Based on the above results, the approximate lethal dose for a single intramuscular administration of the test substance NP in Sprague-Dawley rats was judged to be > 1.0 mL/animal, and there were no findings that were judged to be due to the test substance at the administration site.

Purpose: A number of reports about the intoxicated patients have been introduced, but there were few multicenter studies. The purpose of this study was to analyse the patients with toxic exposure in the Daejon province. Methods: The patients who were presented to the four academic emergency departments in Daejon with toxic exposure were enrolled from January to June 2003. The collected variables were according to the form which modified from the Toxic Exposure Surveillance System (TESS) of the American Association of Poison Control Centers. Results: The toxic exposure patients were 362 cases which is $0.78\%$ of total patients presented to the emergency department. The most common exposure site was home ($84\%$). Eighteen percent of cases were exposed by two or more substances. The most common substance was the pesticides ($34.8\%$), and the non-prescription drugs ($32.6\%$) was followed. The suicidal attempt was the top reason for exposure ($67.1\%$). The route of exposure other than ingestion was $3.6\%$. Although the most patients left the hospital within a day, the average treatment period was 4.4 days. Thirty-one patients ($8.6\%$) were expired, and 22 among them were exposed to the paraquat. Conclusion: We reported the current status of toxic exposure in Daejon province by modified TESS style.

일반적으로 실제 하천의 EC 값은 일정하게 유지가 된다. 연속식, 반연속식 운전으로 실험한 결과 정상상태(steady state)를 보였다. 연속운전의 경우 유출수의 EC 값은 1.7 dS/m로 일정하게 유지되었으며(유입 EC = 0.1 dS/m) 반연속식운전의 경우 새로운 유입수가 유입됨으로 인해 초기 EC는 약 0.1 dS/m이고 미생물이 황을 산화함에 따라 황산염 이온이 생성되고 EC가 증가하여 30분 후 EC는 약 0.6 dS/m로 측정되었고 장시간 운전하여도 일정한 트랜드의 안정적인 값이 측정되었다. ${NO_2}^{-}-N$가 주입되면서 미생물이 저해를 받아 EC가 감소하는 경향을 보였으며 이를 통해 독성물질 주입여부를 판별할 수 있었다. 독성이 없는 유입수를 다시 유입시켰을 경우 약 4~5시간 후 반응조 내의 미생물이 원상태를 회복하여 유입 전 EC의 값이 다시 측정되었다. 황을 이용한 독성모니터링방법은 다른 여러 조건의 실험을 통해 문제점 파악 및 보완이 필요하지만 연속식 운전, 반연속식 운전 2가지 방법을 통해 독성물질을 신속하게 탐지할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Toxohormone-L is a lipolytic factor, found in ascites fluid of sarcoma 180-bearing mice and of patients with hepatoma A substance that inhibited the lipolytic action of Toxohormoue-L was isolated and purified from Korean red ginseng powder. This substance had a pectin-like $\alpha$-1,4-polygalacturonan backbone with some acetoxyl groups, and so was an acidic polysaccharide It inhibited Toxohormone-L Induced liploysis in a dose dependent manner at concentrations higher than 10 Ug/ml. Purified acidic Polysaccharide yield(PG4-3 and PG4-4 fraction) was about 0.03%. And also pectic acid that inhibited the lipolytic action of Toxohormone-L.

In order to find less toxic antiviral agents from basidiomycetes, EA, the water soluble substance, was isolated from the carpophores of Elfvingia applanata (Pers.) Karst. Anti-encephalomyocarditis (EMC) virus activity of EA was examined in Vero cells by plaque reduction assay in vitro. And the combined antiviral effects of EA with interferon (IFN) alpha and gamma were examined on the multiplication of EMC virus. EA exhibited a concentration-dependent reduction in the plaque formation of EMC virus with 50% effective concentration ($EC_{50}$) of 2.12 mg/ml. The results of combination assay were evaluated by the combination index (CI) that was analysed by the multiple drug effect analysis. The combination of EA with IFN alpha showed potent synergism with CI values of 0.40~0.60 for 50%, 70% and 90% effective levels, but that with IFN gamma showed antagonism with CI values of 2.16~2.83.

항 진균제의 인체에 대한 부작용을 완화시키는 방법은 부작용이 적은 새로운 항 진균제 개발이나 기존 항 진균제와 혼용하여 상승효과를 나타내는 물질이 필요하다. 이를 위해 Rahnella aquatilis AY2000가 생산하는 항 효모물질은 일종의 단백질성 고분자 물질이란 점에서 기존 항 진균제와 차이가 있다. 이 항 효모물질은 유도기나 대수증식 기에 있는 효모 생육을 억제시켰으며, cell cycle 분석에서 sub-G1기에 속하는 세포수의 증가 없이 세포를 arrest시켰다. 따라서 항 효모물질은 Candida albicans에 정균작용을 나타내었다. 또한 in vitro 실험에서 이 항 효모물질과 itraconazole이나 fluconazole을 병용한 후 fractional inhibitory concentration index 분석을 행한 결과 항 효모활성이 더욱 상승되었다. 결론적으로 이 항 효모물질은 정균 작용을 가질 뿐만 아니라 azole계의 항 진균제와 혼용하면 상승효과를 가짐으로 부작용이 적은 새로운 개념의 항 진균제로 개발할 가치가 있을 것이라고 생각된다.

본 연구에서는 대상물질을 선점한 후 그에 따른 세 가지 기준 즉 독성, 화재폭발, 환경기준과 각각의 피해예측기법을 설정하고 이 기준들을 알고리즘을 통한 통합한 종합위해등급으로서 선정된 대상물질에 적용하였다. 특히, 환경기준은 포괄적인 개념으로서 USCG 및 MSDS의 환경기준 분류와 NFPA의 건강위해성(Nh) 중 환경관련 부분을 조합하여 환경지수 모델화를 하였다. 또한 각 기준에 따른 피해예측 기법을 선택하여 지역별 인의에 위치한 화학물질 관련업체에 사용 또는 저장 중인 유해화학물질에 대해 적용하여 사용물질에 대한 종합위해등급 설정(단일물질에 대한 가연성, 독성, 반응성, 환경성에 대한 Hazard level 및 표시 모델화) 및 그에 따른 사고시 피해예측 강도산정 (CPQRA, IAEA, VZ eq), Risk contour를 구할 수 있었다. 이 결과 모든 화학공정 및 저장 등에서 발생할 수 있는 독성 누출, 화재폭발의 잠재적 위험성산정을 통한 안전성 평가의 Tool로 활용이 가능하다.

A chronological account of the prospect and problems of utilization of urea in poultry diets is presented. Urea has long been considered as toxic to poultry but recent research, although limited, has yielded controversial results. The main problem appears to be due to the fact that whether or not response to urea is dependent on environment (germ free versus conventional). Although caecum is found to be the major site of ammonia production from urea, the so called nutritional benefit derived by chicken fed urea is probably limited to its utilization for the synthesis of nonessential amino acids in the protein depleted chicken, but not in the protein adequate chicken. More research is needed to monitor production characteristics of birds fed urea and investigate its toxic effect, if any, in some greater detail before recommending this nonprotein nitrogenous substance for inclusion in the poultry diets.

It has been pointed out that various substances such as "toxoalbumin", glycoside, choline or readily hydrolysable choline derivatives, alkaloid, lysolecithine etc. are associated with the toxicity of the infected grain. But animal tests and analysis of paper chromatography by author's indicated that a basic substance present in the concentrated extracts from the grain may neither be acetylcholine, betaine, nor choline. This problem still have to be examine further.
