This study was aimed to investigate the changes of chemical composition of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from red pine needles in the process of needle abscission or senescence. The VOCs in intact, senescent, and litter red pine needle samples were analyzed by headspace-solid phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC/MS). And then, multivariate statistical interpretation of the processed data sets was conducted to investigate similarities and dissimilarities of the needle samples. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to investigate the dataset structure and discrimination between samples, respectively. From the data preview, the levels of major components of VOCs from needles were not significantly different between needle samples. By PCA investigation, the data reduction according to classification based on the chlorophyll a / chlorophyll b (Ca/Cb) ratio were found to be ideal for differentiating intact, senescent, and litter needles. The following OPLS-DA taking Ca/Cb ratio as y-variables showed that needle samples were well grouped on score plot and had the significant discriminant compounds, respectively. Several compounds had significantly correlated with Ca/Cb ratio in a bivariate correlation analysis. Notably, the litter needles had a higher content of oxidized compounds than the intact needles. In summary, we found that chemical compositions of VOCs between intact, senescent, and litter needles are different each other and several compounds reflect characteristic of needle.

Objectives : We investigated the anti-aging effect on skin with the extract of the needles of red pine, Pinus densiflora. Methods : We measured various effects related to skin such as the anti-oxidant effect, the protection against ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, the inhibition of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, the induction of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), the reduction of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) synthesis and senescent cell. Results : The results were as follows : The extract of the needles of red pine (RP) had the potent anti-oxidant effect and the ROS scavenging effect. Also RP preserved the systemic anti-oxidant enzyme system (superoxide dismutase and catalase) from UVB irradiation. RP protected the cell membrane from the damages induced by UVB irradiation. RP induced HSP70, a mediator of resistance to UVB irradiation. RP reduced the synthesis of MMP-2 induced by UVB irradiation. And RP inhibited the amount of senescent-associated (SA) ${\beta}-galactosidase$ staining, as a marker of replicative senescence. Conclusions : The results of our study indicate that the extract of the needles of red pine, Pinus densiflora, has anti-aging effects on skin.

Polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs) were investigated in soil and pine needle samples taken from 16 sites of industrial and residential areas in Changwon, Korea to assess their distribution levels and to suggest the influence of industrial activities, PCDDs/DFs levels in the soil samples ranged from 0.57 to 20.79 pg I-TEQ/g dry weight with a mean value of 4.20 pg I-TEQ/g dry weight. PCDDs/DFs levels in the pine needle samples ranged from 0.39 to 8.75 pg I-TEQ/g dry weight with a mean value of 4.09 pg I-TEQ/g dry weight. In both soil and pine needle samples, the PCDDs/DFs concentrations in the industrial area sites were higher than those in the residential area sites. Homologue profiles in pine needle samples showed different patterns compared with soil samples. Based on the results of principal component analysis (PCA), it was confirmed that pine needles reflected a direct influence from local potential sources of PCDDs/DFs, showing a much higher degree of reflection than in soils. Pine needles are very useful as an indicator for monitoring or estimating the contamination of PCDDs/DFs in other areas which have been impacted by point pollution sources.

Fresh pine needles were collected and extracted with 95% methanol and the extract was concentrated to determine its antimicrobial activity. The methanol extract had a considerable inhibitory effect on the tested bacteria, such as Esherichia coli 0157;H7, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, and Staphylococcus aureus. The methanol extract of pine needles was further fractionated to chloroform, ethylacetate, butanal, and water fractions. Among these four fractions, the butanol and water fractions, which showed a relatively strong inhibitory effect on all of the tested bacteria, were purified and the minimum ingibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for each microorganism. The MIC raged between 25 mg/ml and 45 mg/ml depending on the microorganism. the purified active fractions were applied to sterilized milk as a model food system to define the antimicrobial effectiveness and it was found that the antimicrobial activities in the water fractions were stronger than those in the butanol fractions.

서울과 안성에서 소나무 잎 1, 2, 3년생을 채취하여 대기 중 노출기간에 따른 침착특성을 조사하였다. 소나무 잎에 침착된 총 PCBs의 농도는 서울과 안성에서 각각 2,429, 1,198 pg/g dry weight(건조질량)이었다. 소나무 잎에 침착된 PCB homologs의 농도는 염소치환수가 증가할수록 감소하였는데 이는 고분자 PCBs일수록 대기 중에서 입자상 분율이 가스상에 비해 증가하여 식물에 침착되기가 어렵기 때문으로 판단된다. 소나무 잎에 노출된 기간과 총 PCBs의 농도와의 회귀분석 결과, 매우 유의한 결과($R^2>0.94$, p<0.01)를 나타내었는데 이는 대기에 노출되는 기간에 비례하여 소나무 잎에 PCBs가 선형적으로 누적침착 되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 결과적으로 여러 지역에서 노출기간별로 채취한 소나무 잎은 그 지역 대기 중 PCBs의 장기적인 침착 경향을 파악할 수 있는 passive air sampler로 사용가능 할 것으로 판단되었다.

팔당호 지류인 경안천 만입부에서 현장실험조를 이용하여 조류증식 억제 효율을 조사하였다. Microcystis가 우점하고 평균 Chl a 농도가 30${\sim}$50 ${\mu}$g/l를 나타내는 경안천 만입부 현장실험조에서 습체식물 2.5 g/l 투여 결과, 은행잎, 잣잎, 솔잎 투여조는 초기부터 조류증식억제 효과를 보이면서 조류가 최고 성장기에 이를 때까지 높은 효과를 나타내었다. 수생식물중 애기마름 투여조가 다른 식물 투여조에 비해 가장 효과가 좋았다. 7일째에 조류증식 억제율은 솔잎 85%, 은행잎 80%, 잣잎 75%, 애기마름 78%, 줄 59% 창포 투여조 30%순이었고, 갈대 투여조는 효과가 없었다. 솔잎, 잣잎, 은행잎, 애기마름을 건조시켜 0.25 g/l와 1 g/l로 투여한 결과, 솔잎과 애기마름은 0.25 g/l에서 각각 53%, 90%로 좋은 효과를 나타낸 반면, 잣잎과 은행잎은 1 g/l 투여량에서 효과가 좋았다. 조류증식억제 효과 원인을 찾기 위해 식물체내 유기화합물을 분석해 본 결과 애기마름에서는 4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-2-butanone과 2, 4-bis (1, 1-dimethylethyl)-phenol, p-CYMEN-8-0L이 검출되었고, 잣잎은 2, 4-bis (1, 1-dimethylethyl)-phenol이 검출되었다.

The effect on methanogens attached to the surface of rumen ciliate protozoa by the addition of plant extracts (pine needles and ginkgo leaves) was studied with particular reference to their effectiveness for decreasing methane emission. The plant extracts (pine needles and ginkgo leaves) were added to an in vitro fermentation incubated with rumen fluid. The microbial population including bacteria, ciliated-associated methanogen, four different groups of methanogens and Fibrobacter succinogenes were quantified by using the real-time PCR. Gas profiles including methane, carbon dioxide and hydrogen, and runinal fermentation characteristics were observed in vitro. The methane emission from samples with an addition of individual juices from pine needles, ginkgo leaves and 70% ethanol extract from ginko leaves was significantly lower (p<0.05, 27.1, 28.1 and 28.1 vs 34.0 ml/g DM) than that of the control, respectively. Total VFAs in samples with an addition of any of the plant extracts were significantly lower than that of the control (p<0.05) as well. The order Methanococcales and the order Methanosarcinales were not detected by using PCR in any incubated mixtures. The ciliate-associated methanogens population decreased from 25% to 49% in the plant extacts as compared to control. We speculate that the supplementation of juice from pine needles and ginkgo leaves extract (70% ethanol extract) decreased the protozoa population resulting in a reduction of methane emission in the rumen and thus inhibiting methanogenesis. The order Methanobacteriales community was affected by addition of all plant extracts and decreased to less than the control, while the order Methanomicrobiales population showed an increase to more than that of the control. The F. succinogenes, the major fibrolytic microorganism, population in all added plant extracts was increased to greater than that of the control. In conclusion, pine needles and ginkgo leaves extracts appear to have properties that decrease methanogenesis by inhibiting protozoa species and may have a potential for use as additives for ruminants.
