Background: Over the years, pine pollens have been excluded as an allergen due to its relatively large size, low protein content, and waxy hydrophobic layer, despite their abundance. However, recent studies suggest the possibilities of pine pollens being allergens, and it has been reported that allergy symptoms were highly prevalent in areas with considerably large pine forests and high possibility of exposure to the pollen. Therefore, we conducted a comparative analysis of the allergenicities of the pollens from the dominant species of Korean pines, red pine (Pinus densiflora), black pine (Pinus thunbergii), and pitch pine (Pinus rigida), in mice. Methods: The protein composition of the pollens from the three pine species was compared via sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). The pine pollens and proteins extracted from the pollens were introduced to BALB/c mice by nasal inhalation and application to exposed skin and the IgE produced by the mice were extracted from blood and analyzed via ELISA. Results: SDS-PAGE showed differing protein compositions of the pollens of the three pine species. Analysis of blood IgE compositions showed a similar amount of IgE produced when pollens were applied to skin. In contrast, when mice inhaled the pollens, P. densiflora was shown to induce significantly more IgE production than those of the other two species. Conclusions: The experimental results demonstrate that the pollens of all three South Korean pine species induce IgE production, and this production was more pronounced when the pollens were inhaled than when they were applied to the skin. Of the three species, the pollen of P. densiflora was found to induce the highest level of IgE production.

솔잎혹파리(Thecodiplosis japonensis Uchida et Inouye) 방제용으로 소나무의 수간에 주입된 침투성 살충제 phosphamidon(2-chloro-2-diethylcarbamoyl-1-methylvinyl dimethyl phosphate)의 대사를 구명하기 위하여 $[vinyl,\;carbonyl-^{14}C]phosphamidon$을 약 10년생 소나무의 수간에 주사하고 그 솔잎 추출액을 autoradiography한 결과 phosphamidon은 소나무 체내에서 신속히 분해됨을 알 수 있었다. 솔잎의 phosphate buffer 추출액 중에서 phosphamidon은 주대사산물인 ${\alpha}-chloroacetoacetic$ acid diethylamide를 비롯하여 ${\alpha}-chloroacetoacetic$ acid ethylamide, 3-hydroxy-N,N-diethylbutanamide, acetoacetamide, 그리고 trimethyl phosphate 등의 대사산물을 생성하였으며, 이 대사작용은 소나무 체내에서도 유사하리라 추정된다. 또한 주 대사경로는 구조식중 P-O-vinyl 결합의 가수분해와 관련있는 것으로 보인다.

Three hardwood (ash, alder and black locust) and three softwood (Japanese red pine, radiata pine and Western hemlock) specimens were dried in microwave(MlW) oven and their drying rates were obtained. Their specific permeabilities were also measured by using a modified liquid permeability measuring device. The correlation between the M/W drying rates and permeabilities of six species were statistically analyzed. It was revealed that within a species there is a logarithmic relationship between the M/W drying rates and average moisture contents and that among species there is a linear relationship between the M/W maximum drying rates and the average specific permeabilities. A exception was Western hemlock, which was of low permeability and of high drying rate. A Me-time equation, which showed a good agreement with the actual data, was derived. Thus using this equation the moisture contents of wood and the drying end points of M/W drying could be predicted. Infrared images of the thermal distribution in wood were illustrated.

솔껍질깍지벌레(Matsucoccus thunbergianae)는 우리나라 곰솔(Pinus thunbergiane)림의 주요 해충중의 하나이다. 솔껍질깍지벌레는 단목(丹木)마다 밀도에 차이가 있고, 수관 내 가지별로도 밀도차이가 있어 예찰이 어렵다. 따라서 본 연구는 황색 끈끈이트랩을 이용하여 솔껍질깍지벌레의 분포나 발생을 예찰할 수 있는 방법을 제시하기 위하여 수행되었다. 곰솔림에서 끈끈이 트랩에 유인된 솔껍질깍지벌레 수컷 성충의 밀도와 가지 내 약충의 밀도는 높은 상관관계를 보였다. 끈끈이트랩에 유인된 솔껍질깍지벌레 수컷성충의 밀도는 곰솔의 상층부가 하층부보다 높았으나 통계적 차이는 없었다. 곰솔 가지의 단위면적당 솔껍질깍지벌레 밀도는 흉고직경이 클수록 높아지는 경향을 보였으며 1~2.5 cm 사이의 굵기내에서는 통계적 차이가 없었다. 곰솔 가지의 방향이 지면을 향하는 쪽이 반대 방향을 향하는 쪽에 비하여 솔껍질깍지벌레의 밀도가 높았다. 솔껍질깍지벌레의 예찰에 끈끈이 트랩의 사용을 제안하며, 가지에서의 밀도는 2~2.5 cm 굵기의 가지를 선택하여 지면쪽의 밀도 조사를 추천한다.

In a previous study, it was revealed that three major softwoods, Japanese pine, Korean pine and Japanese larch, heat-treated at $220^{\circ}C$, could produce high quality dark-colored boards. It is known that heat treatment decreases the hygroscopicity of wood. The hygroscopicity of major domestic softwoods and hardwoods heat-treated at $220^{\circ}C$ was investigated by a saturated salt solution method and compared with that of black and white charcoals. Equilibrium moisture contents of wood decreased with the increase of heat treatment time. Isotherm shapes of wood species were different from those of charcoals. Heat treatment decreases the equilibrium moisture contents of black locust more than those of Korean pine and Japanese larch. It was found that surface hardness of wood is improved by heat treatment to a certain extent, but a longer heat treatment causes thermal degradation, resulting in the decrease of the surface hardness.

The oak and pine charcoal were used to develop the inner packaging material for maintaining the freshness of vegetables and fruits, and to investigate the possibility in the application for inner packaging. The effects of the charcoal type, species, particle size, and grammage on the adsorption efficiency of ethylene gas were studied. White charcoal has superior ethylene gas adsorption performance to those of black charcoal. Pine charcoal was superior to oak charcoal in the ethylene gas adsorption. Higher gas adsorption was obtained by the higher grammage sheet. The difference in the adsorption efficiency was not significant between ONP and KOCC.

Steam explosion process is one of the most efficient, pretreatment method for the utilization of lignocellulosic biomass. The carbxymethyl-cellulose(CMC) was prepared with steam exploded wood(EXW), pine(Pinus densiflora) and oak(Quercus mongolica), by standard method using isopropyl alcohol and monochloroacetic acid. The range of water solubility of carboxymethylated pine exploded wood was 45.2~66.8 % and those of oak was 60.7~84.7 %. The degree of substitution(D.S) of carboxymethylated pine exploded wood was 0.11~0.33 and oak exploded wood was 0.48~0.76. The color of carboxymethylated pine and oak exploded wood was brown-black. When carboxymethylated EXW was purified by sulfuric acid, the yield of carboxymethylated wood was lower than non-treated one. However, the color was still brown-black although after delignification. In carboxymethylated EXM prepared after delignification, the water solubility and degree of substitution(D.S) of pine were 81.4~95.9 % and 0.71~0.79, and those of oak were 76.2~89.5 % and 0.79~1.05. The values were higher than non-treated. The degree of substitution of purified carboxymethylated wood prepared with delignified EXM, pine and oak were 0.50~0.71 and 0.70~0.88. The color of carboxymethylated wood was white. In carboxymethylated wood preparde after delignification of EXM, swelling ratio and water retention value of pine were 95.9~96.5 and 580.0~751.2, those of oak were 76.2~89.5 and 124.3~307.6.

Three wood coffins of Chosun Dynasty period buried about 450 years ago were excavated in the sound condition in Andong area in the early 1998. The proprietors of wood coffins were grandparents, Mr. Myoung Jong Lee and Mrs. Mun, and their grandson, Mr. Eung Tae Lee, and the social standing of their family was known to belong to the nobility in those days by the clan genealogy. All the wood coffins investigated through light microscopy had same anatomical characteristics as follows: abrupt to somewhat abrupt tracheid transition from earlywood to latewood; normal longitudinal and horizontal resin canals with thin-walled epithelium; tylosoids in resin canals; bordered pits frequently in 1 row on radial walls of tracheids; 1 or 2 window-like pits per cross-field; uniseriate and fusiform rays; heterogeneous rays composed of body ray parenchyma cells and marginal ray tracheids or homgeneous rays composed of only ray tracheids; dentate ray tracheids; occasional trabeculae traversing tracheids in radial direction. Based on theses microscopic characteristics, all the wood coffins were identified to be Korean red pine (Pinus densiflora) or Korean black pine (Pinus thunbergii). Korean black pine growing naturally in coastal area might not be probable because the site of excavation, Andong area, was mountainous and inland area of Korea Thus, Korean red pine was thought to be the possible species for the wood coffins because of its natural distribution through the Korean Peninsula and the easy availability.
