These studies were carried out to investigate the effect of gonadotropins (GTH), fetal calf serum (FCS), porcine follicular fluid (pFF) and FCS and pFF fractions obtained by the gel filtration on in vitro maturation of porcine follicular fluid. When the oocytes were cultured in TCM-199, the maturation rate was higher in pFF than in FCS in both with or without GTH and in pFF the maturation rate was higher in with GTH than in without GTH. In case of without GTH, pFF increased maturation rates in TCM-199, but not in Whitten's medium (WM). When the oocytes were cultured in WM supplemented with FCS fractions, the maturation rate(51.6%) of oocytes was significantly (P<0.05) higher in fraction B (about 30∼70 kDa) than in control, FCS and other fractions. When oocytes were cultured in WM supplemented with pFF fractions, fractions B (about 30∼70 kDa) and D (about 1∼10 kDa) were significantly (P<0.05) higher than in control, pFF and other fractions. In conclusiion, the addition of gonadotropins into the maturation media was effective for oocyte maturation. The addition of pFF was more effective than addition of FCS for maturation of porcine oocytes in vitro. And fraction B from FCS and fractions B and D from pFF was effective for oocyte maturation.

This study was performed to identify the optimum fractionation method and conditions to obtain exopeptidase-active fractions from octopus hepatopancreas (HP) crude extracts (CEs) using four techniques: solid ammonium sulfate fractionation, polyethylene glycol (PEG) fractionation, anion exchange chromatography, and gel filtration chromatography. The fractions with the highest total activity toward L-leucine-p-nitroanilide (Leu-pNA) were fraction IV from the ammonium sulfate and PEG fractionation, and fraction II in ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography. The total exoprotease activity of these fractions was highest in fraction IV (4,050.20 U) of ammonium sulfate fractionation, followed by fraction II (3,600.28 U) from gel filtration chromatography, fraction IV (2,861.30 U) from PEG fractionation, and fraction II (2,576.28 U) from ion exchange chromatography. These results suggest that ammonium sulfate fractionation using 60-80% ammonium sulfate was the most efficient method for separating the exoprotease active fractions from CEs of octopus HP.

To evaluate the effective use of endoprotease from squid viscera as a food processing aid, various methods of fractionating endoprotease from viscera of the Argentina shortfin squid (Illex argentinus) were evaluated. The endoprotease-positive fractions of each fractionation were fraction II (30-40%, w/w) with cold acetone, fraction IV (50-60% saturation) with ammonium sulfate, fraction UF with anion exchange chromatography, and fraction II (15-24 kDa) with gel filtration. The specific activities (approximately 25 U/mg) of the fractions using ammonium sulfate and gel filtration were higher than the others. Total azocaseinolytic activity and recovery of the positive fraction using gel filtration were 806.95U and 37.82%, respectively, and were the highest among the positive fractions. Based on the results, gel filtration was the most efficient method for fractionating endoprotease from the viscera of Illex argentinus.

Polysaccharides fractions from the leaves of Artemisia selengensis$(ASP_1)$ and Artemisia iwayomogi$(ASP_1)$ were extracted and purified by Sephadex gel filtration and DEAE-Sephadex ion exchange chromatographies. Both $ASP_1$ and $AIP_1$ fractions were tested for their effects on the spleen cell culture in vitro. Both $ASP_1$ and $AIP_1$ fractions allow growth of spleen cells up to 3 months in culture, suggesting the immunoregulatory activities of those polysaccharide fractions. The molecular weights of $ASP_1$ and $ASI_1$ fractions were found to be about 2,500 daltons by Sephadex gel filtration chromatography using standard dextrans. Both $ASP_1$ and $AIP_1$ fractions were composed of glucose, xylose and galactose.

Angiotensin II, adminstered (infused or injected) intravenously, elicited the antidiuretic action with the decreased parameters of renal function at a small dose ($0.01\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), whereas, at a large dose (0.03, $0.1\;{\mu}g/kg/min$ and $5.0\;{\mu}g/kg$), it produced the diuretic action accompanied the increased amounts of sodium and potassium excreted in urine ($E_{Na}\;and\;R_K$). At this time, glomerular filtration rates (GFR) were weakened slightly and renal plasma flows (RPF) were reduced markedly, and then filtration fractions (FF) were increased. Angiotensin II, infused into a renal artery, exhibited antidiuretic action at a small dose ($0.003\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), and diuretic action at a large dose ($0.01\;{\mu}g/kg/min$), only in infused (experimental) kidney. The mechanism of the action was similar to the cases of the intravenous angiotensin II. The above results suggest that angiotensin II of a large dose produced diuretic action due to mechanism inhibiting reabsorption of electrolytes in renal tubules, mainly in proximal tubule in dog.

A membrane bioreactor (MBR) with sludge retention time (SRT) of 300 days was maintained for over 2 years. Polypropylene microfiltration (MF) membrane with pore size of 0.2 ${\mu}m$ was used in the MBR system. The fouling behaviors of various sludge fractions from the MBR were studied and sub-divided resistances were analyzed. It was observed that $R_{cp}$ was a dominant resistance during the filtration of activated sludge, contributing 63.0% and 59.6% to the total resistance for MBR and sequential batch reactor (SBR) respectively. On the other hand, $R_c$ played the significant role during the filtration of supernatant and solutes, varying between 54.54% and 67.18%. Compared with $R_{cp}$ and $R_c$, $R_{if}$ was negligible, and $R_m$ values remained constant at $0.20{\times}10^{12}m^{-1}$. Furthermore, resistances of all sludge fractions increased linearly with rising mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) concentration and growing trans-membrane pressure (TMP), while the relationship was inversed between fraction resistances and cross flow velocity (CFV). Among all fractions of activated sludge, suspended solid was the main contributor to the total resistance. A compact cake layer was clearly observed according to the field emission scanning electro microscopy (FE-SEM) images.

The purpose of this study was to find out the variation between molecular size distribution (MSD) of natural organic matter (NOM) in raw waters after different water treatment processes like conventional process (coagulation, flocculation, filtration) followed by advanced oxidation process (ozonation, GAC adsorption). The MSD of NOM of Suji pilot plant were determined by Liquid Chromatography-Organic Carbon Detection (LC-OCD) which is a kine of high-performance size-exclusion chromatography (HPSEC) with nondispersive infrared (NDIR) detector and $UV_{254}$ detector. Five distinct fractions were generally separated from water samples with the Toyopearl HW-50S column, using 28 mmol phosphate buffer at pH 6.58 as an eluent. Large and intermediate humic fractions were the most dominant fractions in surface water. High molecular weight (HMW) matter was clearly easier to remove in coagulation and clarification than low molecular weight (LMW) matter. Water treatment processes removed the two largest fractions almost completely shifting the MSD towards smaller molecular size in DW. No more distinct variation of MSD was observed by ozone process after sand filtration but the SUVA value were obviously reduced during increase of the ozone doses. UVD results and HS-Diagram demonstrate that ozone induce not the variation of molecular size of humic substance but change the bond structure from aromatic rings or double bonds to single bond. Granular activated carbon (GAC) filtration removed 8~9% of organic compounds and showed better adsorption property for small MSD than large one.

인삼 성분중 생리적 활성을 가지고 있는 oligopeptide를 검출하고 분리하기 위하여 물 추출액을 ultra-filtration 한 후 gel filtration, ion-exchange chromatography 및 thin layer chromatography 등을 행하였다. 인삼 물 추출액으로부터 고분자 물질을 제거한 ultra-filtrate는 epinephrine에 의해 유도된 fat cell의 lipolysis를 저해하는 antilipolytic activity를 보유하고 있었으며 Sephadex G-25 gel filtration에 의해 3개 fraction으로 나뉘어졌다. 이중 첫번째 fraction(S-FI)만이 peptide 성분을 함유하고 있었으며 saponin 및 당도 검출되었다. S-FI fraction은 $Dowex\;50{\times}2\;ion-exchange\;chromatography$에 의하여 6개의 $fraction(P-F1{\sim}P-F6)$으로 분리되었고 TLC검정 결과 P-F2 fraction이 peptide fraction으로 antilipolytic를 보유하고 있었으며 TLC로 분리한 6개 spot는 각각 가수 분해한 전후의 TLC pattern을 비교해 본 결과 모두 oligopeptide임이 밝혀졌다. S-FI fraction에 존재한 saponine과 당은 P-F1 fraction 에서 모두 용출되었다.

These experiments were carried out to develop new techniques for in vitro separation of x-and Y-bearing spermatozoa. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows: 1. Following centrifugation of discontinuous percoll density gradient, populatin of spermatozoa increased progressively from low to high density. The highest concentration of spermatozoa was observed at the 4th fraction which included 36.6% of spermatozoa. 2. As increasing percoll concentration, the higher motility index was obtained and the highest motility index(74.2) was obtained at the 5th fraction. 3. The percentage of B-body bearing spermatozoa following percoll density gradient centrifugation was decreased from 39.7% to 25.6%. 4. The sperm population following chromatography by sephadex gel and percoll density gradient centrifugation was decreased in 1st, 5th and 6th fractions but the reverse was turn for 2nd, 3rd and 7th fractions, and the highest sperm concentration was observed at the 7th fraction which included 37.4% of spermatozoa. 5. Motility index of spermatozoa was increased from 77.6 to 79.4 after the sephadex gel filtration, however it was decreased at all fractions after percoll density gradient centrifugation. The lowest motility index(33.2) was obtained from the 7th fraction. 6. The rate of B-body bearing spermatozoa was shown the trend to decrease by the sephadex gel filtration and the trend was accelerated by the percoll density gradient centrifugation. The lowest percentage of B-body bearing spermatozoa, 12.0% was obtained from the 5th fraction.
