To investigate the contribution of macroalgae to biogeochemical nutrients and carbon cycles, we measured the uptake rates of nutrients and $CO_2$ by Undaria pinnatifida using an incubation method in an acrylic chamber. From January to March 2010, U. pinnatifida was sampled at Ilkwang, a well-known area of macroalgae culture in Korea. The initial and final concentrations of nutrients, dissolved oxygen, total alkalinity, and pH of the chamber water were measured, and production/uptake rates were calculated using concentration changes, chamber volume, and incubation time. The production rate of dissolved oxygen by U. pinnatifida (n = 32) was about $5.4{\pm}4.0\;{\mu}mol\;g_{fw}^{-1\;}h^{-1}$. The uptake rate of total dissolved inorganic carbon (TDIC), calculated by total alkalinity and pH, was $7.9{\pm}6.5\;{\mu}mol\;g_{fw}^{-1}\;h^{-1}$. Nutrients uptake averaged $141.7{\pm}119.2$ nmol N $g_{fw}^{-1}\;h^{-1}$ and $15.0{\pm}9.1$ nmol P $g_{fw}^{-1}\;h^{-1}$. A positive linear correlation ($r^2$ = 9.6) existed between the production rate of dissolved oxygen and the uptake rate of total dissolved inorganic carbon, suggesting that these two factors serve as good indicators of U. pinnatifida photosynthesis. The relationships between fresh weight and uptake rates of nutrients and $CO_2$ suggested that younger specimens (<~50 g fresh weight) are much more efficient at nutrients and $CO_2$ uptake than are specimens >50 g. The amount of carbon uptake by the total biomass of U. pinnatifida in Korea during the year of 2008 was about 0.001-0.002% of global ocean carbon uptake. Thus, more research should be focused on macroalgae-based biogeochemical cycles to evaluate the roles and contributions of macroalgae to the global carbon cycle.

해조류 중 갈조류인 미역으로부터 분리당화발효(SHF)를 위한 전처리 및 효소당화를 검토하고, 기존의 분리당화발효(SHF)를 개선하기 위해 공배양발효(co-culture)를 수행하였다. 비순치 효모와 고농도 mannitol에 순치(adaptive evolution)한 효모를 이용한 공배양발효를 실시한 결과 발효 72시간에 12.2 g/l의 에탄올과 에탄올 수율($Y_{EtOH}$) 0.41을 나타내었다. 이러한 기존의 분리당화발효(SHF)를 개선한 공배양발효를 통해 에탄올 생산 수율이 0.23에서 0.41로 35.2% 증가하였으며, 에탄올 발효시간도 108시간에서 72시간으로 33.3% 감소하였다. 이러한 연구결과는 해양 바이오매스인 해조류로부터 바이오연료 생산과정에 있어 유용한 정보를 제공하는 것으로 판단된다.

The anti-inflammatory effects of the ethanol extract of Undaria pinnatifida root (UPREE) were investigated using the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory response in RAW 264.7 cells by measuring the production of nitric oxide (NO), interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-${\alpha}$, and IL-$1{\beta}$, and cell proliferation. We found that NO levels were reduced by 34% at $100{\mu}g/mL$. Moreover, the production of IL-6 and TNF-${\alpha}$ was suppressed by the UPREE treatment. In particular, the IL-6 production was inhibited by more than 30% at $100{\mu}g/mL$ UPREE. The proliferation of RAW 264.7 cells was measured by MTT assay, and we found no cytotoxicity in those cells treated with UPREE compared to the control. Our results suggest that UPREE shows promise as a therapeutic anti-inflammatory treatment.

미역의 부위별 fucoxantin함량은 미역엽 87.6 mg/100g, 미역줄기에 62.4 mg/100 g그리고 미역귀에 127.7 mg/100 g를 나타내어 미역귀에 함유되어 있는 fucoxanthin함량이 미역엽에 비해 1.4배, 미역줄기에 비해 2.0배 더 함유되어 있는 것으로 나타났다. Fucoxanthin은 444 nm에서 최대흡수극대를 나타내는 전형적인 carotenoids의 분광학적 특성을 나타냈다. 미역에 존재하는 fucoxanthin은 용매 분획, silica gel column chromatography와 HPLC를 이용하여 분리 정제하고, 얻어진 fucoxanthin을 인공생체막인 인지질에서의 자동산화에 이용하였다 인지질에서 50 $\mu$M fucoxanthin을 37$^{\circ}C$에서 72시간 자동산화시킨 결과, 5개의 산화물이 생성되었다. 이러한 산화물은 in uitro상의 산화적 조건하에서 fucoxanthin자동산화에 의해 생성된 산화개열산물로 생각되었다.

생물흡착현상을 이응한 중금속오염폐수 처리기술 개발을 위한 기초연구로서 중금속흡착능이 있는 것으로 알려진 U. pinnatifida, E. stolonifera, Laminaria sp., G. amansii 등 4종의 해조류를 대상으로 중금속 흡착 특성을 조사하였다. 해조류 종류별 중금속 흡착능력은 U. pinnatifida$\geq$E. stolonifera$\geq$Laminaria sp.>G. amansii 순이었으며, 중금속 $100mg/{\ell}$ 농도에서 Pb는 $93{\sim}99%$ 정도 흡착이 되었고, Cu와 Cd는 $70{\sim}80%$ 절도 흡착되었다. $CaCl_2$을 이용하여 해조류의 작용기를 치환함으로서 중금속 흡착 및 탈착성능이 개선되었으며, 온도와 pH에 따른 중금속 흡착 변화는 큰 차이가 없었다. U. pinnatifida의 중금속 흡착은 Freundlich 흡착등온식 보다는 Langmuir 흡착등온식에 잘 일치하였고, Cu, Cd 및 Zn에 비해서 Pb가 상당히 흡착친화도가 큰 것으로 나타났다. U. pinnatifida의 중금속별 흡착효율은 다성분계 중금속일 때가 단성분계일 때 보다 감소하였으며, 탈착제로서 NTA를 처리하였을때 흡착된 중금속의 탈착효율이 가장 높았다.

동일한 양식장에서 생육된 두 미역 품종간의 생장 및 형태적 특성과 이에 따른 양식 생산의 효율성을 1990년 11월부터 1991년 4월까지 매월 2회씩 채집된 자료를 분석하였다. 두 품종의 미역은 완도 지방에서 널리 양식되고 있는 Undaria pinnatifida Sur. f. distans Miyabe and Okamura(북방형)와 일본 산리꾸 지방에서 이식된 U. pinnatifida Sur. f. typica Yendo(남방형) 이었으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 수확기의 평균 체장 및 체중은 북방형의 완도 산은 각각 161.1cm, 1,003.4g이었고, 남방형의 산리꾸 산은 각각 183.5cm, 1,314.6g이었다. 최대 성장 시기는 두 품종 모두 4월 초순으로 그 이후는 생장이 감소되는 경향을 보였으나, 두 품종간의 생장 차는 이 시기에 비교적 컸다. 간미역 가공시 사용되는 가용 부분의 평균 무게는 완도 산이 734.8g, 산리꾸 산이 968.5g이었다. 그리고 체장에 대한 가용부의 길이 비율은 완도 산, 산리꾸 산이 각각$76\%,\;83\%$이었고, 체장에 대한 가용부의 무게 비율은 각각 $43.8\%,\;52.7\%$이었다. 따라서 남방형인 산리꾸 산의 형질이 가용 비율 및 가공 효율 면에서 북방형의 완도 산보다 우수하고, 수익성이 높은 것으로 평가되었다.

This study compared the total phenolic contents and antioxidant activities of two seaweed cultivars, Undaria pinnatifida (UP) and Capsosiphon fulvescens (CF), subjected to different drying methods. UP and CF were dried under two different conditions: vacuum drying (VD) at $20^{\circ}C$ and hot-air drying (HD) at $60^{\circ}C$. After drying, the total phenolic content, DPPH, and nitrite scavenging activities of the water extracts were determined. Total phenolic contents were 101.94 mg/100 g for UP and 171.35 mg/100 g for CF upon VD-20, and these values were significantly decreased to 67.59 mg/100 g for UP and 141.48 mg/100 g for CF upon HD-60. UP upon VD-20 and HD-60 had 46.17% and 35.20% DPPH radical scavenging activity, whereas CF upon VD-20 and HD-60 scavenged 57.73% and 35.22%, respectively. UP upon VD-20 and HD-60 had 40.36% and 40.01% nitrite scavenging activity at pH 1.2, whereas CF upon VD-20 and HD-60 scavenged 72.35% and 55.24%, respectively. Nitrite scavenging activities of UP and CF were reduced at pH 3.0.

The biosorptlon perFormances of copper were Investigated by the immobilized biomass of nonliving marine brown algae Undaria pinnatifida by each of the Ca-alginate method(Ca-ALG), Ba-alginate method(Ba-ALG), polyethylene glycol method(PEG), and carrageenan method (CARR). The copper removal performance increased but the copper uptake decreased as the biomass amount was increased. However, the copper uptake by the immobilized biomass increased with increasing initial copper concentration. Among the immobilization methods, the copper uptake decreased in the following sequence: Ca-ALG > Ba-ALG > PEG > CARR. The pattern of copper uptake by the immobilized biomass fitted the Langmuir isotherm better than the Freundlich isotherm. Desorption of deposited copper with 0.05 ~0.5M HCI, resulted in no changes of the copper uptake capacity of the immobilized biomass by the immobilization methods except for PEG, through five subsequent biosorptioydesorption cycles. There was no damage to the immobilized biomass which retained its macroscopic appearance in repeated copper uptake/elution cycles.

Eight quality standards of the brown seaweed, Undaria pinnatifida were designed and evaluated with dry products collected from aquacultured and wild areas. Contents of n-3 fatty acids (stearidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid), anti-edema activity, and total carbohydrate were measured as functional criteria. Total bacteria and molds were counted for safety conditions. Amounts of a brown pigment fucoxanthin, debris, and moisture were measured to evaluate the visible status of the products. When the seaweeds were tested in 1 g dry weight basis, they showed n-3 fatty acids in the range of approximately 0.2-2.8 mg, total carbohydrate of 0.39-0.71 g, total bacteria of $10^{4-6}$ cells, mold of $10^2$ cells, fucoxanthin of 0.4-1.5 mg, and debris of 10-24 mg. Anti-edema activity was 0.03-0.47 AU at 40 mg/mL extract. Moisture content was 11.4-12.6%.

Sporophylls from sea mustard, Undaria pinnatifida, which are by-products in seaweed production industries, were taken from Hansan Island, Tongyeong, and Gijang, Busan, and investigated for their fucoidan content and corresponding antioxidant activities. The extracted fucoidan yield from sporophylls of sea mustard samples from Tongyeong (TF) and Gijang (GF) were 12.1% and 13.6%, respectively. The antioxidant activities assessment of TF and GF extracts showed relative significant difference between samples, suggesting effect of location on bioactivities of fucoidan samples. GF was 50-68% more effective than TF against DPPH and superoxide radicals samples which may be attributed to the difference in their degree of sulfation and monosaccharide composition. Meanwhile, TF exhibited greater scavenging activity against hydroxyl radicals compared to GF which could be due to protein impurities.
