Novel antimicrobial substance was isolated from seed coat of Canavalia gladiata by extraction with 75% methanol. Isolation and purification were conducted with solvent fractionation and chromatography on silica gel and sephadex LH-20 columns. Each fraction of antimicrobial activity was tested by paper disc method. Single compound was obtained from the 4th fraction of sephadex LH-20 column chromatography using chloroform/methanol (1:4, v/v), and identified as 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester (methyl gallate) based on HPLC, GC/MS, FT-IR, $^1H$ NMR, and $^{13}C$ NMR analyses. This is the first report describing the presence of methyl gallate in C. gladiata.

Carnation mottle carmovirus(CarMV) was isolated from Lilium spp. in Korea. This isolate, CarMV, was done bioassay, which plants were Dianthus caryophyllus, Gomphrena globosa, Chenopodium amaranticolor, Dianths chinensis. CarMV was propagated on the leaves of Chenopodium amaranticolor with the crude-sap inoculation method and purified by Mossops method(1976). We produced antiserum against CarMV and analyzed the antiserum specificity with ELISA, Gel diffusion method, and Rapid Immunofilter Paper Assay (RIPA). From these results of the assay, RIPA method was simple and rapid for CarMV detection. We have established successfully the CarMV detection system. CarMV coat protein gene was amplified by RT-PCR with specific primers and sequencing analysis was done.

Talaromyces flavus mediates the transmission of Apple stem grooving virus (ASGV) to several host plants. The ASGV-F carried by T.flavus was partially purified from the fungus. Based on sequence analysis and homology searches, this is closely related to other ASGV strains isolated from host plants. The partially purified viral coat protein (CP) was separated on a 12% SDS-polyacrylamide gel and analyzed by Western blotting with an ASGV anti-serum. A single band at 28 kDa reacted with the ASGV anti-serum. The deduced amino acid sequence of the ORF-l showed conserved domains, including an NTP-binding helicase motif, GFAGSGKT. The amino acid sequences of the helicase and CP showed strong homology to other ASGV strains (98%). All ASGV isolated from plants and fungi had salt bridges composed of the CP and the GFAGSGKT motif of the helicase, which are commonly conserved in plant viruses. These results suggest that ASGV-F is one of ASGV strains isolated from T.flavus based on sequence similarity as well as the serological analysis of CP.

We isolated the Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus(CGMMV) particles from watermelon leaves and designated as CGMMV-HY1 as a watermelon isolate and attempted to characterize the pathogenic isolate responsible for such an epidemic in watermelon and also to monitor dominant viral isolates in greenhouse. The watermelon plants infected with CGMMV generally showed mottle mosaic, mosaic, growth stunting, necrosis and deformed fruit. The reactions of indicator plants to CGMMV-HY1 were the local lesions on Nicotiana tabacum cv. White Burley, Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun, and Chenopodium amaranticola, and the mosaic symptoms only on Cucumis sativus, but the CGMMV-HY1 did not infect Nicotiana sylvesytis, Datura stramonium, Chenopodium quinoa, and Petunia hybrida. Purified virus particles were rod-shaped and about 300 nm long. The coat protein (CP) of purified CGMMV-HY1 was single band with molecular weight of about 16.5 kDa which was confirmed by western blot analysis probed with monoclonal antibody of CGMMV-HY1. The genomic and subgenomic RNAs of 6.4 kb and 0.75 kb were revealed by the electrophoresis on 1.2% formaldehydedenatured agarose gel. Viral and complementary CGMMV-specific primer sets were designed for spanning the genome using previously reported CGMMV sequences. A 464bp of CP gene of CGMMV-HY1 was amplified by RT-PCR and cloned into PGEM-T easy vector. The nucleotide sequence of CP gene of CGMMV-HY1 shared 98%, 99%, and 100% identities with that of CGMMV strains W, KOM, and KW respectively. Based on these results, we identified CGMMV-HY1 as a CGMMV isolate of watermelon, a member of Tobamovirus.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of desensitizing agents applied on hypersensitive root surface following periodontal treatment. This study included 21 subjects(168 vital teeth). To evaluate dentin sensitivity, three clinical tests(tactile, air stream, cold water) were tried and three different densensitizing agents(MS coat, Elmex gel. Superseal) were individually applied. After application, reassessment was done at 1 minute, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months. The results were as follows : 1. The degree of dentin sensitivity was measured highly in the sequence of cold water, air stream and tactile and significantly decreased in all four groups with lapse of time(p<0.05). 2. There was no significant difference between all four groups in the tactile test with lapse of time. 3. There was no significant difference between three experimental groups in the air stream test with lapse of time. however, one minute later, it was measured highly in the sequence of Superseal, MS coat and Elmex 4. There was no significant difference between three experimental groups in the cold water test with lapse of time. As a result of this study, all of three agents were significantly effective in reducing dentin hypersensitivity and these agents could be positively employed to patients complaining of dentin hypersensitivity following periodontal treatment.

The great economic losses caused by Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) infection of peppers has led to the development of genetically modified (GM) CMV-resistant peppers. We developed virus-resistant pepper plants using Agrobacterium tumefaciens -mediated transformation. The expressed recombinant protein was purified using nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid resin and immunoaffinity chromatography, and purity was assessed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Immunoblot analysis revealed the purified CMV coat protein (CMV-CP) had a molecular mass of 25 kDa. After in-gel digestion and desalting, the internal peptide fragments of CMV-CP were sequenced by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight. Most GM pepper and Escherichia coli BL21 internal peptides had identical peptide sequences and contained 137 of 183 whole peptides in CMV-CP. A quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to detect CMV-resistant GM peppers. We also provide basic information about the expressed protein in GM peppers for further safety assessment. The contents of soluble protein and CMV-CP were measured in GM and control peppers cultivated in three different areas of Korea. Statistical significance in terms of cultivation areas, harvest times, generations, and plant tissue origin were determined based on a P value of 0.05. The highest amount of CMV-CP was detected at the seedling stage from plant grown in each region. T3 and T5 showed significantly different levels of CMV-CP from T4 in leaves in the whorl stage. No statistical differences were observed among GM peppers at different stages of maturity in any cultivation area. The results from this study contribute to the safety evaluation of newly designed CMV-resistant GM peppers and provide a standard against which to compare other virus-resistant GM peppers.

난분해성 및 독성 폐수 처리는 고급산화 기술과 생물학적 처리가 친화결합(intimate coupling) 을 이룰 때 최적의 효과를 거둘 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 광촉매 산화와 생물학적 처리를 친화결합하도록 고안된 다공성 $TiO_2$ 코팅 담체를 제조하여 광촉매 반응에 관한 동력학 연구를 수행하였다. 저온 sol-gel 코팅법으로 제조된 PVA 재질의 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체는 UV 조사하에서 methylene blue (MB)를 효율적으로 분해하였다. 시험 농도(최대 100 ${\mu}M$)에서 MB의 흡착속도는 1차반응 (first-order reaction)의 성질을 보였으며, 흡착과 산화를 포함한 총반응속도는 유사 Langmuir 모델로 예측 가능하였다. 이러한 원인은 담체 표면에 MB가 흡착됨에 따라 UV 조사에 의하여 광촉매 반응이 일어날 표면이 줄어들었기 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체의 단위 $TiO_2$ 량당 최대 MB 제거속도는 슬러리 $TiO_2$ 반응기에서 얻은 MB 제거속도보다 4배 더 빨랐다. 본 연구로 인하여 저온 sol-gel 코팅법으로 제조한 PVA 재질 다공성 $TiO_2$ 담체가 성공적인 광분해 반응을 나타내는 것이 확인되었으며, 동 담체에 대한 광촉매 반응의 동력학적 성질이 구명되어, 향후 생물처리를 친화결합 시킬 수 있는 연구 바탕을 확보하였다.

Potato virus X (PVX-KO) showing mild mosaic and stunting symptoms on potato (Solanum tuberosum) in Kangwon area has been isolated and characterized. EM observation of the purified virus particles showed flexuous rod shape of about 520 nm in length. The coat protein (CP) of the virus had a molecular weight of 31 kDa in SDS-PAGE analysis, and the viral RNA was approximately 6.4 kb in size in denatured agarose gel electro-phoresis. In gel-immunodiffusion tests, it reacted strongly with an antiserum to common PVX from BIOREABAAG (USA). A rabbit antiserum was produced using purified virus and used for routine PVX detection by ELISA. Cultivated potatoes in Kangwon and other areas were frequently infected with PVX-KO. Both Datura stramonium and Nicotiana tabaccum cultivars developed necrotic local lesions 5 days after inoculation, and systemic mosaic symptoms with vein clearing 2 weeks after inoculation. All the features agree with the description of other PVX strains. To confirm and determine PVX strains, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction experiment was conducted using specific primers for viral CP. Amplified DNA fragments were cloned and sequenced. Results showed nucleotide sequence homologies of about 88 to 99% to other PVX strains. Based on CP amino acid sequence deduced from nucleotide sequences and host range studies PVX-KO is considered a member of the type X subgroup of PVX.

Ornithogalum showing mosaic symptoms were collected from the isolated field of National Plant Quarantine Service in Sengrimmyon of Kyungnam province. Electron microscopic examination of negatively strained preparation was filamentous particle of 740nm in lenght. Indirect-ELISA determined that the virus was serologically related to potyvirus. A single major protein band of Mr 30,000 was observed after sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). Indicator plant test showed masaic, necrotic local lesion and sunken areas in leaves of Nicotiana clevelandii and Tetragonia expansa, while the others of indicator plants did not infect. An enzyme-aided purification protocal was used, which eliminated a highly viscous mucilage from extracts of the Omithogalum. Total RNA extracted from infected Omithogalum leaves were amplified of 411b.p fragment in reverse transcription (RT)-PCR when primers specilic for the coat protein gene. An isolate of Omithogalum mosaic virus (OrMV) of the genus Potyvirus was identified as the casual agent of the disease on the basis of electron microscopic, biological and serological reaction.
