최근에 해양자원에 있는 동물, 해조류 곰팡이 세균에서 신규 잠재적인 후보약효제가 조사되어 왔다. 본 연구에서는 치료제를 탐색하기 위하여 암전이, 관절염, 만성염증 및 주름형성에 주요한 역할을 하는 기질금속단백질분해효소(s) (MMPs)를 목적효소로 이용하였다. 5종의 녹조류, 18종의 홍조류, 4종의 갈조류를 포함한 다양한 해조류가 사람피부섬유아세포 및 섬유아육종세포로부터 유래된 기질금속단백질효소에 미치는 영향을 gelatin zymography를 이용하여 조사하였다. 사람피부섬유아세포에서는 홍조류중에서 Laurencia okamurae, Polysiphonia japonica, Grateloupia lanceolate 및 Sinkoraena lancifolia에서 MMP-2 억제효과가 관찰되었다. 반면에 녹조류의 Enteromorpha compressa와 Enteromorpha linza, 갈조류의 Peltaronia bighamiae and Sargassum thunbergii에서는 MMP-2 활성화가 관찰되었다. 사람섬유아육종세포에서는 MMP-9 활성화가 갈조류인 Sargassum thunbergii, 홍조류의 Polysiphonia japonica, 녹조류의 Enteromorpha compressa와 Enteromorpha linza의 존재 하에서는 감소되었다. 본 연구에서 흥미로운 발견은 녹조류의 E. compressa와 E. linza 및 갈조류의 S. thunbergii는 정상세포에서는 MMP-2에 대하여 활성화 효과를 나타내었으나, 암세포에서는 MMP-9응 억제하는 효과를 나타낸 것이다. 이러한 결과는 녹조류의 E. compressa와 E. linza 및 갈조류의 S. thunbergii는 항암 효능을 발휘할 수 있는 성분을 함유하고 있다는 것을 암시하고 있다.

In the present paper, seven marine algae collected from the coasts of Korea are described. The two blue-green algae, Coccochloris stagnina Sprengel and Entophysalis conferta (Kuetz.) Drouet and Daily, one brown alga, Ralfsia verrucosa(Aresch.) J. Ag., and the two red algae, Enelittosiphonia hakodatensis (Yendo) Segi and Symphyocladia pennata Okamura, are recorded newly in our country. The other two blue-green algae, Anacystis dimidiata (Kuetz.) Drouet and Daily and Phormidium tenue (Meneghini) Gomont, are recorded for the first time marine water in our country.

Properties of newly developed paper from Red Algae Pulp (RAP) were examined. The paper samples were prepared by mixing RAP fiber with wood fibers, HwBKP and SwBKP, to form a paper with $60g/m^2$ in weight. It was prepared in three to four different levels of refining degree and pressure so that it can reveal different bulk level in order to clearly compare the opacity at equivalent bulk for each furnish compositions. Printability of RAP fiber revealed superior effect on print through repression and initial ink absorption. Those properties are expected to improve further if printability improvement effect due to smoothness improvement is added.

Recently seaweed polysaccharides have been extensively studied for alternative energy application. Because their producing cost is high and efficiency low, their industrial applications have been limited. The main component of cell wall of red algae represented by Gelidiales and Gracilariales is agar. Red-algae agar or galactan, consisting of D-galactose and 3, 6-anhydro-L-galactose, is suitable for bio-product application if hydrolyzed to monomer unit. For the hydrolysis of algae, chemical or enzymatic treatment can be used. A chemical process using a strong acid is simple and efficient, but it generates together with target sugar and toxic compounds. In an enzymatic hydrolysis process, target sugar without toxic compounds generation. The objective of this review is to summary the recent data of saccharification by chemical and enzymatic means from red seaweed for especially focused on automobile industry.

The Erythropeltidales are a common group of small, mostly epiphytic, marine red algae. However, they are little known in Korea. Many of the described species of Erythropeltidales differ subtly in morphology, and often the morphological differences are due to the substrate or environmental changes. Integration of molecular data with standardized culture conditions has been recommended to account for these algae. A Madagascaria species was first collected from the western coast of Korea and was identified as Madagascaria erythrocladioides based on the morphological and molecular characteristics. Morphological characteristics conformed well with its original description, and the phylogenetic analysis based on rbcL sequence showed Korean M. erythrocladioides nests in the same clade with the original species described in Japan with a genetic distance of 0.0-0.1%. This species was isolated from a red alga, Pterocladiella capillacea, in laboratory culture. The thallus ontogeny and host preference were examined by a co-culture with 13 different species of algae. Results showed a relatively broad host preference in mono-spore attachment and epiphyte development of Madagascaria erythrocladioides. Mono-spores of M. erythrocladioides attached to most of the red algal hosts' surfaces but no crustose thalli developed on some of the algal hosts even after one month of co-culture.

The red alga Compsopogon caeruleus can generally be found in tropical and subtropical waters worldwide. In addition to its natural habitats, this species may be found in waters that receive abnormally hot water, e.g., from powerhouses. To date, the presence of C. caeruleus has not been observed in thermally polluted lacustrine ecosystems in Poland, which has a moderate climate. The thalli of this red alga were found growing on Vallisneria spiralis in Lichenskie Lake. Importantly, this paper presents a previously unknown relationship between the temperature (20, 25, 30, 35, and 40℃) and oxygen requirements of C. caeruleus (based on ex situ measurements of O₂ consumption by thalli). Surprisingly, 35℃ can be the optimum temperature for C. caeruleus, and this temperature is higher than the values reported by some previous thermal analyses by approximately 10℃. Additionally, we reviewed and mapped the distribution of this nonnative and mesophilic red alga in natural / seminatural water ecosystems in Europe. Finally, we propose that the occurrence of C. caeruleus mature thalli can be a novel, simple and easy-to-recognize bioindicator of artificially and permanently heated waters in moderate climate zones by a regular discharge of postindustrial water.

Evidence is presented to demonstrate that the type of Delesseria kurilensis Ruprecht belongs to Congregatocarpus rather than Tokidadendron (both genera of the red algal family Delesseriaceae), and the new combination of Congregatocarpus kurilensis (Ruprecht) M.J. Wynne is proposed.
