본 연구에서는 인삼의 알카로이드 분획 (alkaloid fraction)을 주요성분으로 함유하는 Adaptagen의 방사선 방어제로서의 효과를 구명(究明)하기 위하여, 방사선조사에 의한 마우스 공장 소낭선 세포 손상 및 회복을 측정하고, 마우스 비장임파구 미세핵 측정법을 시험관 내 및 생체에서 실시함으로써 본 제재의 방사선 방어효과를 평가하였으며, 실험결과 얻어진 결론은 다음과 같다. 1. 마우스 공장소낭선세포의 방사선 손상은 대조군에 비해 alkaloid 분획 투여시와 수용성 분획 투여시 공히 감소하였으나, alkaloid 분획 투여시 더욱 현저하였다. 2. 마우스 공장소낭선세포 손상의 회복 및 증식은 대조군에 비해 alkaloid 분획 투여시와 수용성 분획 투여시 공히 현저히 증가하였다. 3. 시험관내 시험에서 방사선에 의한 임파구 미세핵 형성도는 쌍핵세포의 형성율이 낮아 통계학적 의의는 없으나 약제 투여 군에서 빈도가 낮은 경향을 보였으며 alkaloid 분획 투여시 더욱 현저하였다. 4. 생체내 시험에서 방사선에 의한 임파구 미세핵 형성빈도는 대조군에 비해 alkaloid 분획 주여시와 수용성 분획 투여시 공히 감소하였으나 alkaloid 분획 투여시 더욱 현저하였다. 이상의 결과에서 인삼의 alkaloid 및 수용성 분획이 방사선에 의한 염색체 손상을 억제하고 손상된 세포의 회복 (repair) 및 증식 (regeneration)을 촉진하여 방사선 방어효과를 나타냄을 알 수 있었으며, 이는 독성이 비교적 없는 자연산생물 (natural products)로서 방사선방어제로 임상에 직접 사용 할 수 있다.

Purpose : To investigate the effect of alkaloid fraction from Korean ginseng on radiation-induced DNA double strand breaks (dsb) formation and repair in murine lymphocytes Materials and Methods : We used the neutral filter elution technique to assay $^{60}Co\;{\gamma}$ ray-induced DNA double strand breaks formation and repair in C57BL/6 mouse spleen lymphocytes for evaluating the dose-response relationship in the presence of alkaloid fraction as a radioprotective agent. The lymphocytes were stimulated with Phytohemagglutinin (PHA, 2 u g/ml) to label $^3[H]-thymidine.$ Isotope-labelled lymphocytes in suspension were exposed to 100 Gy at $0^{\cdot}C$ in the alkaloid fraction-treated group and elution procedure was performed at PH 9.6. The extents of formation of radiation-induced DNA double strand breaks and repair were compared respectively via strand scission factor (SSF) and relative strand scission factor (RSSF). Results: Alkaloid fraction reduced the formation of double strand breaks with dose modification factor of 2 15, compared to control group Rejoining of DNA dsb appeared to take place via two components. The first fast component was completed within 20.4 minutes, but the second slow component was not completed until 220.2 minutes after irradiation. About $30\%$ of dsb formed by irradiation was ultimately unrejoined despite the administration of alkaloid fraction. The administration of alkaloid fraction had a great effect on the second slow component of repair; the half-time of fast component repair was not changed, but that of slow component was 621.8 minutes. Conclusion: Neutral filter elution assay Proved to be a very effective method to quantitate the extents of DNA dsb formation and its repair. By using this technique, we were able to evaluate the efficiency of alkaloid fraction from Korean ginseng as a valuable radioprotector. Alkaloid fraction can be used prophylactically to prevent or ameliorate the severe radiation damages in workers and neighbors around the atomic power plants. For more refined study, however, more advanced purification of alkaloid fraction wil be needed in the near future.

Over twelve alkaloids were detected in the ether-soluble alkaloid fraction of Panax ginseng roots. Among them, three alkaloids were identified as N9-formylharman, ethyl $\beta$-carboline-1-carboxylate and perlolyrine on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic studies. And also spinacine was isolated from the water-soluble fraction of the roots.

인삼에서 생리활성이 보고된 알카로이드 분획에 관한 성분연구의 일환으로 백삼 50kg으로부터 알카로이드 분획 2.6g(수율:$5{\times}10^{-3}$%)을 분리하였으며, $CHCl_3$/MeOH(10 : 1)의 전개용매로 TLC한 결과 약 13종 이상의 Dragendorff 시약에 양성인 spot들을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 인삼 종류별 비교에 있어서는 백삼, 홍삼 및 전칠인삼은 서로 별 차이가 없었지만 미국인삼에 있어 No.2(Rf 0.71), No.3(Rf, 0.68)등의 spot가 검출되지 않았다. 또한 백삼에서 1종의 알카로이드 성분을 순수분리하여 화학적, 분광학적인 방법으로 구조를 구명한바 $N_9$-formyl-1-methyl-$\beta$-carboline으로 동정하였다.

Effect of nitrogen rate with and without chance of Phosphorus and Potassium rate was investigated in a field experiment. Percentage of plant mortality after transplanting increased with N rates above 32.5kg/10a. The content of total nitrogen increased and postassium decreased slightly as the rates of applied N was increased, but the contents of total alkaloid and phosphorus were not affected at each growing stage. It was considered that the application of 17.5kg of P2O5 and 35.0kg of K2O Per 10a might be sufficient for high yield and good Quality. As the N rates being increased, the yield, value, contents of total alkaloid and total nitrogen of cured leaf increased However, the Brice per kg was not significantly different among 17.5 ~ 37.5kg / 10a of N rates. The application of 37.5kg/10a of N may be profitable for farm economy; but, the N application should be controlled 17.5~22.5kg/10a for the low nitrogen and alkaloid leaf.

When mice irradiated by neutron (Be) are fed with ginseng concentrate, ginseng powder, and adaptagen of which the major ingredient is ginseng alkaloid to neutron (Be source) irradiated mouse, the following results are obtained. 1. The 50% lethal dose (LD50) for the neutron irradiation were 4 days at 600 rad, 7 days at 500 rad, 16 days at 400 rad, 33 days at 375 rad, and 55 days at 350 rad. In thistest, the standard amollntofirradiation was set at 375 rad/8 min. 2. Some spots appeared in the tail of the neutron-irradiated mouse because of blood congestion, and some had its tip tails cut. But the group administered with adaptagen did not show any of these symptoms. 3. The neutron irradiated mouse showed darkening the color of their lung-chloasmas while none of the adaptagen group had this symptom. 4. The lung tissue of the neutron irradiated mouse showed an increase of the karyolysis and cytoplasmic vacuole. 5. When both neutron irradiation and the ginseng sllbstances were given to the mouse at the same day, the 50% lethal days were increased to 29-33 days for the group administered with ginseng extract. 67 days for the group given with the ginseng powder. and 80 days for the groilp arith the adaptagen. 6. The survival rate of those fed with adaptagen for 33 days before the neutron-irradiation was 100%, while the 50% lethal daysofthe group fed with ginsengextract were 39 days and that of the group fed with ginseng powder were 69 days. 7. The serum valued of ${\gamma}$-globulin, IgG, and albumin were returned to normal condition in the group fed with adaptagen for 33 days before the neutron-irradiation. But those of the group which were given the irradiation and the ginseng substances at the same day did not show such a recovery.

A field experiment was conducted to find out the effects of field productivity, variety and nitrogen rate on the yield, quality, chemical constituents and physical properties of burley cured leaf in three field with different productivity(Degree of field productivity: A ; high, B ; medium, C : low) during successive two years(1988~89). The yield and quality were remarkably lowered when nitrogen fertilizer being applied much in low productive field. As compared with Burley 21, KB101 showed high yield, particularly the yield of KB101 in low productive field was relatively high. The effect of nitrogen rate on the yield was somewhat different according to field productivity and production year. When the nitrogen fertilizer being applied above 22.5kg/10a, the added nitrogen had no effect on the yield. Total nitrogen content of cured leaf grown in low productive field was high while total alkaloid was low, therefore total alkaloid/total nitrogen ratio was remarkably low. The lightness, red and yellow color of cured leaf grown in low productive field was remarkably low. As compared with Burley 21, the contents of total alkaloid and total nitrogen and shatter resistance index of cured leaf was somewhat low, while the filling power, lightness, red and yellow color were slightly high. Total nitrogen content of cured leaf was increased remarkably by nitrogen addition, but total alkaloid was not increased though the nitrogen fertilizer being applied above 22.5kg/10a. The filling power and shatter resistance index of cured leaf grown in high nitrogen plot, and the lightness and yellow color were low while the red color was relatively high. It comes into question that the visual quality being increased as well as increment of yield and nitrogenous compounds by nitrogen addition in high productive field. In low productive field, it is considerable that nitrogen addition for high yield should be prohibited because it causes the decrement of yield and quality, on the contrary.

인삼의 쓴맛 성분을 규명하기 위해 전자혀를 이용하여 여러 인삼성분의 쓴맛 강도를 측정한 결과, ginsenoside와 알칼로이드 성분의 쓴맛 강도가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이 중 알칼로이드 성분은 고려인삼 내 함량이 낮아 인삼의 쓴맛에 실질적인 영향이 미비할 것으로 판단되며 함량이 높은 ginsenoside가 쓴맛에 미치는 영향이 클 것으로 사료된다. Ginsenoside는 인삼 고유의 활성성분으로 큰 폭의 ginsenoside 함량감소는 인삼의 고유 기능성에 부정적인 영향을 줄 수 있으므로, 기호성을 높여 시장성을 확대하고자 인삼의 쓴맛을 경감하기 위하여는 ginsenoside Rb₁을 비롯한 인삼 내 함량이 높고 쓴맛이 강한 ginsenoside를 다른 ginsenoside로 전환시키는 가공방법을 개발하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단된다. 또한, 전자혀와 실제 사람의 미각과는 차이가 있을 수 있으므로 향후 사람의 미각에 대한 직접적인 추가 검증 연구도 필요하다고 사료된다.
