In order to investigate the antiotoxic effect of red ginseng extract on serum protein of mouse treated with methyl mercury playing a role as toxic contaminant in ecosystem, variations of the serum protein contents, electrophoretic patterns, and blood components were studied. Mice were divided into 3 groups: Control, group I treated only with methyl mercury, and group II treated together with methyl mercury and red ginseng extract. The total serum protein content of the control group was 5.8g/dl and those of groups I and II were slightly decreased as compared with the control. The control group showed 11 serum protein fractions and groups I and II showed 10 fractions except prealbumin. The amounts of albumin, ${\alpha}_1-$, ${\alpha}_2-$ globulin fractions were decreased and those $\beta$-, $\gamma$-globulin fractions were increased in groups I and II. The amount of each serum protein fraction in group II showed approximately the same level as the control. The hematocrit value and the number of white blood cells of groups I and II were increased, whereas the number of red blood cells showed the decrease as compared with the control.

Changes of plasma DNA contents and serum biochemical values were measured in rats administered with $HgCl_2$ to investigate the in vivo cytotoxic effects of mercury and examine the usefulness of these changes as indicators of mercury exposure and diagnosis of mercury poisoning. Rats were given once intraperitonealy $HgCl_2$(0.13. 0.32. 0.8 and 2 mg/kg b.w) and the changes of plasma DNA contents and serum biochemical values were measured at the time of 2, 4, 8, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the administration of $HgCl_2$. Plasma DNA contents began to increase from 2 hours after the administration of $HgCl_2$ in all the treatment groups significantly compared to control with dose-dependent pattern. The levels of plasma DNA reached to peak at 48 hours as 2.77, 7.60, 15.46 and 16.51 times higher than control in each treatment group of 0.13, 0.32, 0.8 and 2 mg/kgb.w, respectively and remained to be higher until 72 hours after the administration. The values of creatine kinase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, blood urea nitrogen and glucose of serum were increased, however the values of alkaline phosphatase, total protein and triglyceride were decreased. These changes of increase and decrease showed dose-dependent pattern but the starting time, maintenance and magnitude of change were various and characteristic according to serum biochemical indices. Among the changes of serum biochemical values, those of aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase and blood urea nitrogen were apparently and significantly increased compared to control from 2 to 72 hours by the administration of 2 mg/kg $HgCl_2$. This study demonstrates that plasma DNA and serum biochemical values such as aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, blood urea nitrogen and etc. are valuable as biomarkers for mercury exposure assessment and diagnosis of mercury poisoning.

Mercury (Hg) is ubiquitous throughout the earth's atmosphere. The uniqueness of its atmospheric geochemistry is well-known with the high environmental mobility and relatively long atmospheric residence time (c.a., 1 year) associated with its high chemical stability. Despite a growing recognition of the environmental significance of its global cycling, the prexisting Korean database for atmospheric Hg is extremely rare and confined to a number of concentration measurements conducted under relatively polluted urban atmospheric environments. To help activate the research on this suvject, an in-depth analysis on the current development in the measurements of atmospheric mercury and the associated fluxes has been made using the most using the most updated data ests reported worldwide. As a first step toward this purpose, the most reliable techniques commonly employed in the measurements of its concentration in the background atmosphere are introduced in combination with the flux measurement techniques over soil surface such as: dynamic enclosure (or field flux chamber) method and field micrometeorological method. Then the results derived using these measurement techniques are discussed and interpreted with an emphasis on its mobilization across the terrestrial biosphere and atmosphere interface. A unmber of factors including air/soil temperature, soil chemical composition, soil water content, and barometric pressure are found out to be influential to the rate and amount of such exchange processes. Although absolute magnitude of such exchange processes is insignificant relative to that of the major component like the oceanic environment, this exchange process is thought to be the the predominant natural pathway for both the mobilization and redistribution of atmospheric Hg on a local or regional scale.

This study was carried out to obtain fundamental information of growth response of ground cover plants under artificial light quality at indoor. Aglaonema 'Silver Queen', Hedera helix L., Hoya carnosa 'Tricolor' and Saintpaulia ionantha 'Frances' were examined under a 400lux light intensity consisted of Mercury lamp, True-lite lamp, incandescent lamp, dark-room and sunlight indoor condition. A data analysis were performed by GLM, Duncan's multiple range test and mean score with SAS program. Results of experiments are as follows; 1. A plant growth status was better showed under the True-lite lamp than sunlight. 2. A Saintpaulia ionantha flower color was responded in the first place, the deep pinkish red color of Saintpaulia ionantha flower was obtained under Mercury lamp and "True-lite lamp", "sunlight", and incandescent lamp were follow. Flower numbers of Saintpaulia ionantha after 60 days tended to decrease under every artificial light quality. 3. Leaf length and leaf width were increased under True-lite lamp, but most of plants was not significantly affected by artificial light quality. 4. A stem length of Hedera helix was increased the highest rank under sunlight also, one of artificial light, the highest increase rank was showed under incandescent lamp. 5. Chlorophyll content was highly increased under Mercury lamp, but was responded poor under incandescent lamp.

Seed protein and oil content is important trait in the soybean. Both seed protein and oil content in this plant species is inherited quantitatively. A 68-plant $F_2$ segregation population derived from a mating between Mercury and PI 467.468 was evaluated with random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers to identify QTL related to seed protein and oil content. Marker OPB12 was found to be associated with differences in seed protein content. Four markers, OPA09b, OPM07b, OPC14, and OPN11b had highly significant effects on seed oil content. By interval mapping, the interval between marker OPK3c and OPQ1b on linkage group 13 contained a QTL that explained 25.7% variation for seed oil content.

To know a degree of pollution in agricultural products cultivated around 4 unworked mines located in Chollanam-Do, we investigated a concentration of heavy metal and trace metal to provide the basic data for its residual limits. 28 samples of seven kinds of agricultural products(lettuce, onion, potato, radish, pepper, pumpkin, bean) collected from 4 unworked mines located in Chollanam-Do in 2001 were analyzed by Mercury Analyzer for mercury and Atomic Absorption spectrophotometer for Pb, As, Cd, Cu, Mn, and Zn. Hg contents were detected N.D. ∼trace level(0.01 ppm and less) and As content were detected N.D. ∼ 0.029 lpm but most of same)leE were not detected. Cd contents were detected N.D∼0.124 ppm. The results of Hg, As, Pb and Cd content showed that for all the 7 species of agricultural products studied, none have accumulated levels dangerous enough to Pose health problems. The average contents of Cu were 3.070 ∼ 7.825 ppm in bean, the Mn were 3.688 ∼23.935 ppm in lettuce ailed the Zn were 5.690 ∼21.171 ppm in bean, respectively.

정신분열증과 수은 및 구리와의 관계를 보기 위해 정신병원에 입원중인 만성 정신분열증 환자중 만 20세에서 29세까지의 남자 80명과 대조군 69명을 대상으로 두발 중 구리와 수은 함량을 원자흡광광도계로써 측정하고 아울러 이들에게서 다면적 인성검사(MMPI)를 실시하였다. MMPI의 각 척도별 T-점수를 환자군과 대조군으로 나누어 비교한 결과 Hs, D, Pd, Pa, Pt, Sc척도에서 환자군이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높은 점수가 나왔고 점수 구간에 따른 분포도 환자군과 대조군 사이에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 구리의 경우 환자군의 두발 중 함량이 $11.17{\pm}3.72ppm$으로 대조군의 $18.93{\pm}7.81ppm$에 비해 유의하게 낮았으며 수은의 경우는 환자군이 $2.42{\pm}1.46ppm$으로서 대조군의 $1.68{\pm}1.07ppm$에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 이때 거주지에 따른 차이는 볼 수 없었다. 구리와 수은은 역상관관계(r=-0.25)를 보였으며 통계학적으로 유의하였다. MMPI의 T점수에 따른 구리 함량은 10개 척도 모두에게 유의한 차이가 없었다. 수은의 경우는 Pt척도와 Sc척도에서 각 점수군간에 통계학적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. T점수의 70점 이상과 미만의 두 군간을 비교하였을 때는 70점 이상군의 Pa척도, Pt척도, Sc척도에서의 수은 함량이 각각 $2.72{\pm}1.49ppm,\;2.93{\pm}1.27ppm,\;2.66{\pm}1.42ppm$으로서 70점 미만군의 $1.97{\pm}1.30 ppm,\;1.98{\pm}1.32 ppm,\;1.92{\pm}1.29ppm$에 비해 유의하게 높았다. 다른 척도의 경우에도 통계학적인 의의는 없었지만 Mf척도를 제외하고는 전반적으로 70점 이상군이 미만군보다 수은 함량이 더 높았다. 그리고 D, Pa, Sc척도에서는 T점수가 증가함에 따라 수은 함량도 유의하게 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 환자군과 대조군으로 나누었을 때 구리의 경우 대부분 척도의 각 점수군에서 환자군이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 함량이 낮았으며 수은의 경우는 D척도의 44점 이하군, Hy척도의 $45{\sim}59$점군, Pd척도의 $60{\sim}69$점군, Mf척도의 $45{\sim}59$점군, Ma척도의 $60{\sim}69$점군, Si척도의 44점 이하군에서만 환자군이 대조군에 비해 유의하게 높은 수치를 나타냈다. 본 연구의 결과로 볼 때 구리의 결핍이나 수은의 과다 섭취가 정신분열증의 발병 혹은 증상 악화에 영향을 끼칠 수 있을 가능성을 짐작해 볼 수 있으며 이들 금속과 정신분열증의 상관관계, 그리고 인성과의 관계에 대해 계속 연구해 볼 필요성을 느낀다.
