Precipitation samples were collected by a wet-only automatic acid precipitation sampler at Kangwha island on the western coast in Korea, through January until December 1992. pH, electric conductivity and the concentrations of major water-soluble ion components such as N $H_{4}$$^{+}$, $Ca^{2+}$, $K^{+}$, $Mg^{2+}$, N $a^{+}$, N $O_{3}$$^{[-10]}$ , S $O_{4}$$^{2-}$ and C $l^{[-10]}$ were measured. From the result of checking the validity for assesment of pollution level of precipitation samples by pH using correlation analysis between pH and major components, and t-test of chemical composition between acid rain and non-acid rain, pH proved to be not satisfactory for its pillution level. A more comprehensive method is therefore required. In order to estimate the monthly analytical result of chemical composition of precipitation samples comprehensively, a cluster analysis was used among the various multivariate statistical analysis. As a result of making a cluster analysis for separating the monthly precipitation samples into homogeneous patterns by setting the concentrations of nine major water-soluble ion components as a variable, three homogeneous patterns were obtained. The first pattern was a group of months having average ion concentrations, the second a guoup of months having low ion concentration, and the third a group of months having high ion concentrations. Thus, it was indicated that the pollution level of precipitation was higher on February and lower on May, June, August and September than the other months. As a result, this analysis method could be estimated the chemical coposition of precipitation regionally as well as monthly.monthly.

Milk contains essential nutrients and functional compounds, such as calcium, fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, carotenoids, bioactive peptides, and sphingolipids. The bioactive molecules from milk are not expensive and have an added advantage of being derived from food. Therefore, they are more stable and have a broader spectrum than that of other chemicals. Bioactive milk components are useful for treating non-digestive tract disorders, such as cancer, cognitive decline, and hypertension. However, the clinical application of certain breast milk ingredients is limited due to the lack of a large-scale production technology. Once the scaled-up production of lactoferrin became possible, clinical applications were devised and evaluated. Similarly, human alpha-lactalbumin made lethal to tumor cells (HAMLET) can be produced on a large scale as a recombinant protein in microorganisms or in transgenic cattle using suitable separation systems. HAMLET can be used to treat human skin papilloma and cancer. Studies on breast milk that explored the clinical applications of the bioactive components of breast milk have spurred the development of translational medicine and breast milk-derived therapeutics. Some breast-milk derived therapeutic agents are already available to clinicians. Many components of breast milk have shown efficacy in pre-clinical studies and have valid clinical evaluations.

Radiation protective fraction was Isolated and partially purified from Korean white ginseng. The effect of the fraction was studied on the cell survival of W-damaged CHO-Kl cells. As a result, it was found that the fraction increased the survival rate of damaged cells significantly within the dose range of which cytotoxicity did not appear This fraction was separated into two parts by adding butanol, namely the precipitated protein component and the butanol extract. Damaged cells were treated with each of these components and their survival rates were measured. The protein component demonstrated significant increase in the survival rates, while the butanol extract showed no such increment. These results suggest that the radiation protective effect of the ginseng fraction is originated from the butanol-precipitated protein component, not from the butanol-soluble compounds.

Black pepper (Piper nigrum L.) among several irritating spices tested was highly effective on the duration of hexobarbital hypnosis in mice. Pretreatment of mice with the methanolic extract of black pepper (60mg/kg i.p.) prolonged markedly the duration of hexobarbital sleeping time. Three consecutive daily administrations of the same dose of black pepper extract, however, shortened (37%) the duration of hexobarbital sleeping time. The ether soluble fraction of black pepper extract caused most potent effects on the duration of hexobarbital hypnosis. From the above results, it was postulated that the lipid soluble components of black pepper might considerably change the drug action and metabolism by altering drug metabolizing enzyme systems.

The purpose of the study was characteristics of secondary pollutants of $PM_{10}$ collected in pocheon between August 2002 and June 2003. The ambient concentrations of $PM_{10}$ mass, 9 water-soluble anions and cations, and 13 bulk composition trace elements were determined from filter samples collected by $PM_{10}$ high volume air sampler(UV-15H, Graseby-Anderson Co., USA). During this period average $PM_{10}$ mass concentration was $83.8{\mu}g/m^3(49.8{\mu}g/m^3\~111.6{\mu}g/m^3)$ in Pocheon. Mechanism for transformation of secondary pollutants by soluble ion components is divided into two categories; $NaNO_3$ type by the reaction of sea salt and $HNO_3$ in the atmosphere, and nitrate salt or phosphate salt type such as $(NH_4)_2SO_4,\;NH_4NaSO_4,\;and\;(NH_4)_2SO_4(2NH_4O_3)$.

In order to investigate the characteristics of PM(sub)2.5 in the background area, the following pollutant were measured from February 1996 to June 1999 in Kanghwa: PM(sub)2.5 mass, sulfate, nitrate, chloride, ammonium, sodium, calcium, magnesium and potassium. The mean concentration of PM(sub)2.5 mass was 25.8$\pm$1.2$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥(range 5.18~85.74). This value was higher than the annual PM(sub)2.5 US NAAQS(15$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥) and the total number of samples higher than the 24-h PM(sub)2.5 US NAAQS(65$\mu\textrm{g}$/㎥) was seven. PM(sub)2.5 masses also showed temporal variations both yearly and seasonally. Total water soluble ions constituted about 45% of PM(sub)2.5 miss, and sulfate, nitrate and ammonium were main components in water soluble ions. Compared with the literature data from other areas, the measured PM(sub)2.5 concentrations were relatively high.

Dietary fiber imparts both mutritional and functional properties to foods. This review deals with (1) the classification of dietary fiber, (2) the plant cell wall models, (3) the relations between structure and physicochemical and functional properties of dietary fiber and (4) the applications of dietary fiber in foods. Dietary fiber can be classified in terms of source, plant function, solubility, charge and topology. Plant cell wall models are presented to provide information on the interconnections of dietary fiber components which determines the content of soluble and insoluble dietary fiber content. In reality, physicochemical and functional properties of dietary fiber originate factors such as chemical constituents , charge, branching degree, conformation and etc. Dietary fibers possess a variety of functional properties in food systems, which thus make them useful in food application. In particular, rheology and gelation of water-soluble gums or hydrocolloids are discussed for their effects on food quality. A guideline s also listed for the gum selection to meet the best product requirements.

The antioxidant activity of Persicaria thunberii (Polygonaceae) was determined by measuring the radical scavenging effect on 1,1-diphenyl-2-pocrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. The methanol extract of thunbergii showed strong radical scavenging activity at an I $C_{50}$ concentration of 12.2$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml, and thus fractionated by solvent extraction. The EtOAc soluble fraction was stronger than the others, and was further purified by silica gel and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, Antioxidant isorhamnetin, quercetin (2), quercitrin (3) and isoquercitrin (4) were isolated from the EtOAc soluble fraction. And isorhamnetin-3-sulfate (5) was isolated from the n-BuOH fraction. Compounds 2, 3 and 4 were found to have strong antioxidative potency.

The composition of biochemical components such as lipids, proteins and their amino acid components and inorganic elements in the ashes in unossified antlers from Cervus nippon Temminck var. mantchuricus grown in Korea were analyzed to obtain fundamental data for quality control. As a result, it was found that total lipids were 20.75% which was approximately similar contents with those of proteins (21.8%). Sixteen amino acids were identified from the hydrolysate of the protein fraction. Three gangliosides with very similar TLC patterns of those such as $GM_3$, $GM_1$ and $GM_{1a}$ were identified from the water soluble layer of Folch's partitions. Ash contents were revelaed to be much higher in the sponge layer (40.0%) than in the velvet layer (3.7%).
