고등어와 정어리의 각 장기조직에 분포하는 단백질분해효소의 최적활성조건을 분석${\cdot}$비교하고, 열안정성과 저온저장중의 활성의 변화 등을 검토한 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 고등어와 정어리의 각 장기에서 단백질분해효소를 추출하여 pH에 따른 단백질분해능을 분석한 결과, 소화관, 췌장, 유문수 및 비장은 알칼리성에서, 위는 산성에서, 그리고 간은 산성, 중성 및 알칼리성의 세 영역에서 각각 단백질분해능이 있음을 알았다. 그리고, 소화기관인 위, 췌장, 및 유문수에서 추출한 조효소는 활성이 높았으나, 간 및 비장에서 추출한 조효소는 활성이 아주 낮았다. 2. 각 장기에서 추출한 단백질분해효소의 열안정성을 분석한 결과, 두 어종의 위와 유문수 및 정어리의 췌장에서 추출한 효소의 내열성이 가장 약했으며, 비장과 간에서 추출한 중성단백질분해효소는 내열성이 강한 것으로 판단되었다. 3. 각 장기에서 추출한 조효소의 저장성을 검토한 결과. $5^{\circ}C$ 저장시 두 어종의 유문수와 고등어의 췌장${\cdot}$위 및 비장에서 추출한 효소는 안정성이 높았으며, 그 이외의 조직에서 추出한 효소는 저장 28일까지 많은 실활이 일어났다. 또한 방부제 sodium azide에 의한 영향은 어종과 조직에 따라 미미한 차이를 보였으며, $-15^{\circ}C$에서 저장한 경우가 $5^{\circ}C$에 저장한 경우보다 효소의 실활이 더욱 컸다.

Objectives : Written by Yoongdongri in the 18th century Chosun, Chochangkyeul is a book that specially deals in Ungi. Yoon understood a person's body constitution by taking into factor the person's birth year, and used this information to determine his Ungi type, and understood his disease mechanism. Methods : Following the study on the first part of Chochangkyeul, named Ungiyeonron, the paper tries to study the book's second part, called Yongyakgwon. The book's core messages are summarized upon a thorough inspection. Results & Conclusions : Yoondongri was a highly-acclaimed doctor in the 18th century Chosun, and also an Ungi practitioner who utilized the theory of Ungi in his clinical practices. His practices were mainly based on the prescription of Ungi found in Chenwuze's Sanyinfang, coupled with almost all parts of Donguibogam's Husebang. He had an extensive clinical experience which helped him describe his methods of quickly responding to the side effects that sometimes occur due to misuse of medicine. Such detailed descriptions are never found in past medical books, which gives Yoon's book a great level of historical importance. Yongyakgwon divides the scripts between Gabsin, Muui, Byungye, Gyungjeong, and Yimgi in accordance with the theory of Ounhabgi, and also introduces treatments based on Yukisachun. Jangbupasuyak also introduces about six external organs and six internal organs with relation to treating wind medicine, treating heat medicine, treating cold medicine, treating dry dampness medicine, dryness-moistening medicine, pulling meridian medicine.

Objectives: We noticed that hyperhidrosis can be differentiated by whether it is topical or systemic in both Korean medicine(KM) and Modern medicine(MM). Comparing between topical and systemic sweating, we will figure out similarity between KM and MM about stimuli on sweat. Methods: All research is done by finding information on text-book, article, books. Results: Hyperhidrosis is differentiated by whether it is topical or systemic in both Korean medicine(KM) and Modern medicine(MM). First, systemic sweating(SS) is affected by body temperature. In KM, Heat and Cold(plus yang deficiency) can make human sweat systemically. In MM, heat is also mentioned as stimulus. Second, topical sweating(TS) can occur on emotionally-stressed situation especially on palms-and-soles. In KM, this phenomenon is explained by heart spirit(心神) and disease transmitted by pericardium meridian(手厥陰心包經 是動病). In MM, anatomically hyperhidrosis on palms-and-soles is generated by adrenergic sympathetic nerve which is involved with stress. Third, sweating on palms-and-soles also can be generated by internal organ. In KM, hyperhidrosis on palms-and-soles is explained as illness on stomach meridian(足陽明胃經). The 70% of parasympathetic nerve is vagus nerve which is located at internal organs-usually gastrointestinal tract. In that point, stomach and parasympathetic nerve seem to be involved in hyperhidrosis on palms-and-soles. Conclusion: Hyperhidrosis is differentiated similarly by whether it is topical or systemic in both Korean medicine and Modern medicine. Conserving each perspective of KM and MM, one perspective can be useful to other by supplementing other's weak point.
