With recent trend in domestic and global market requiring architectures' conversion into skyscrapers seasoned with the features of landmarks, structural problems in relation with explosive spatting during fire emergencies are arising as controversial issues. Accordingly, many productive researches have been made in relation to the reinforcement techniques for improving fire resistance and the number of applications in the field is gradually increasing. In this study, a ductile outline form using ECC (Engineered Cementations Composites) was made with improvements on the structure and fire resistance to examine its applicability. Also, currently in Japan, the number of studies and applications is increasing focusing on reduction of construction time and improvement of workability with application of Half-PCa method. However, using such method of construction, large structural members decrease the utilization of space and architecture-wise, there is a disadvantage of the weight increase. Therefore, in such context, it would be worth reducing the weight of the structural members by reducing the size using ECC. In addition, its excellent pseudo strain-hardening due to fiber may have great effects on seismic designs. In the mean time, this study planned 3 equal conditions for mix water, PVA fiber and additives excluding binder and refractory to evaluate the mechanical properties of resistance against pressure and internal force. Finally, an evaluation was executed on the fire resistance of the newly made ductile outline form. As a result, from ECC-I to ECC-III, all showed excellent mechanical properties due to pseudo strain-hardening and in the fire resistance test conducted with ISO 834 heating curve, most of them tended to be in the range of the reference temperature (538℃-180min), so there was no occurrence of any explosive spatting.

In this study, we attempted to isolate novel mast cell-stimulating molecules from Staphylococcus aureus. Water-soluble extract of S. aureus cell lysate strongly induced human interleukin-8 in human mast cell line-1 and mouse interleukin-6 in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells. The active molecule was purified to homogeneity through a $C_{18}$ reverse phase HPLC column. By determination of its structure by MALDITOF and $^1H$- and $^{13}C$-NMR, adenosine was revealed to be responsible for the observed cytokine induction activities. Further studies using 8-sulfophenyl theophylline, a selective adenosine receptor blocker, verified that purified adenosine can induce interleukin-8 production via adenosine receptors on mast cells. Moreover, adenosine was purified from S. aureus-engulfed RAW264.7 cells, a murine macrophage cell line, used to induce phagocytosis of S. aureus. These results show a novel view of the source of exogenous adenosine in vivo and provide a mechanistic link between inflammatory disease and bacterial infection.

In the course of our continuing search for biologically active components from Korean medicinal plants, we isolated the main compound, luteolin 5-glucoside from aqueous fraction of Ajuga spectabilis. The structure was elucidated by the basis of $^1H$ and $^{13}C$ NMR and TOF ESI-MS data. Quantitative analysis of luteolin 5-glucoside was carried out on a XBridge C18 column ($S-5{\mu}m$, $4.6{\times}250mm$) with gradient elution composed of acetonitrile:water. The results exhibit that the average content of main compound in A. spectabilis were 0.048%. Oxidative stress plays a major role Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodogenerative disease. AD is major health problem and there is currently no clinically accepted treatment to cure or stop its progression. Pretreatment with luteolin 5-glucoside markedly attenuated $H_2O_2$-induced cell viability loss in a dose-dependent manner. Luteolin 5-glucoside also inhibited the formation of intracellular reactive oxygen species in SH-SY5Y. The results suggest that luteolin 5-glucoside from A. spectabilis has protective effects against oxidative stress-induced cytotoxicity, which might be a potential therapeutic compound for treating and/or preventing neurodegenerative disease implicated with oxidative stress.

The objectives of this study were to identity antioxidant substance in heated garlic juice (HGJ). We evaluated the antioxidant activities of heated garlic juice exposed to 120, 130, and $140^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr. The HGJ was partitioned using the solvents of hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water. The ethyl acetate fraction of HGJ treated at $130^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr showed strong antioxidant activity; this extract was isolated and purified using silica gel column chromatography and semi-preparative high-performance liquid chromatography. The structure of the purified compound was determined using spectroscopic methods, i.e., ultraviolet, mass spectrometry, infrared, $^1H$ NMR, $^{13}C$ NMR, DEPT, HMBC, and HMQC. The isolated compound was identified as thiacremonone (2,4-dihydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-thiophene-3-one). Thiacremonone showed strong 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging activity, with a 50% inhibition concentration ($IC_{50}$) of $22.25{\pm}0.44\;{\mu}g/mL$, which is much higher than that of the antioxidants ascorbic acid ($30.06{\pm}0.42\;{\mu}g/mL$), ${\alpha}$-tocopherol ($71.30{\pm}0.97\;{\mu}g/mL$), and butylated hydroxyanisole ($50.54{\pm}0.94\;{\mu}g/mL$).

A study was made on the primary production of Lake Changjamot during the spring season of 1973 by menas of the oxygen method. The stratification of temperature and dissolved oxygen were formed in May with the stratified structure of phytoplankton. The range of Secchi disc transparency was from 0.8m to 2.3m during the nine months of this investigation, which was begun in January, 1973. The value was lowest in early June when the phytoplankton blooming reached the peak. The concentration of PO4-P, NH3-N, NO3-N and NO3-N was reduced at the beginning of the phytoplankton blooming and increased again after May except PO4-P. It might have been caused by the inflow of the nitogenous fertilizer from the surrounding agricultural area since May when farming was started. The total amount of chlorophyll-a in the entire water column varied from 25mg/$m^2$ to 277mg/$m^2$ from January till September with the maximum value occurring in early June. These values show a considerable eutrophication of the in comparison with the data obtained in 1969. The daily gross production in the lake varied from a low of 655mgC/$m^2$ to a high of 2,859 mgC/$m^2$ during the spring season and this corresponds to the variation of the amount of chlorophyll. The total amount of daily respiration varied from 650mg C/$m^2$ in winter to 2,307 mg C/$m^2$ in late spring and exceeds gross primary production especially in late May showing the negative balance of daily production and consumption of organic material at that time. In conclusion, Lake Changjamot is a fairly productive and a moderately autotrophic lake and has been eutrophicated much during the past four years.

For the development of new antitumor antibiotics produced by microorganisms, Streptomyces sp. YBE-316 was isolated from soil. The productivity of the antitumor antibiotic from Streptomyces sp. YBE-316 gradually increased after 60 hours, and was maximum after 100 hours after inoculation in growth medium (2.0% sucrose, 1.0% soybean meal, 0.1% K$_{2}$HPO$_{4}$, pH 7.0) at 30$\circ$C, 150 rpm, 5 NL/min by 30 l jar fermentor. This antitumor antibiotic was present only in mycelium, and stable in pH 5.0-10.0 for 20 minutes at 100$\circ$C. Antitumor and antibiotic activities were maintained at neutral pH, and heat stability was low. This antitumor antibiotic was soluble in methanol and ethanol, and insoluble in water, ethyl acetate, chloroform, and n-hexane. This antitumor antibiotic was sequentially purified by acetone extraction from mycelium, butanol extraction, and silica gel column chromatography. Antitumor activity was low against most tested cell lines, but antibiotic activity was high and low against yeasts and bacteria, respectivelv. The visualization test showed that this antitumor antibiotic had higher hydroxyl, ketone, amino, carboxyl groups, and sugar(s) in its structure. Instrumental analyses showed that this antitumor antibiotic was a pentaene in polyene class antibiotics. In pentaene class antibiotics, this was considered as an eurocidin or capacidin type antibiotics. The molecular weight of this antitumor antibiotic was higher than 683.0 daltons, and this antitumor antibiotic might be glycosylated by other sugar(s), instead of mycosamine or perosamine, an amino sugar.

During a hypothetical core-disruptive accident (CDA) in a sodium-cooled fast reactor (SFR), degraded core materials can form roughly conically-shaped debris beds over the core-support structure and/or in the lower inlet plenum of the reactor vessel from rapid quenching and fragmentation of the core material pool. However, coolant boiling may ultimately lead to leveling of the debris bed, which is crucial to the relocation of the molten core and heat-removal capability of the debris bed. To clarify the mechanisms underlying this self-leveling behavior, a large number of experiments were performed within a variety of conditions in recent years, under the constructive collaboration between the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) and Kyushu University (Japan). The present contribution synthesizes and gives detailed comparative analyses of those experiments. Effects of various experimental parameters that may have potential influence on the leveling process, such as boiling mode, particle size, particle density, particle shape, bubbling rate, water depth and column geometry, were investigated, thus giving a large palette of favorable data for the better understanding of CDAs, and improved verifications of computer models developed in advanced fast reactor safety analysis codes.

본 연구에서는 '국가해양생태계종합조사' 결과를 활용하여 "암반 조하대에 서식하는 연체동물의 군집구조가 먹이자원의 종류와 양에 따라 섭식형(feeding type)별로 차이를 보일 수 있는지?"를 확인하였다. 다수의 참고문헌을 바탕으로 연체동물 섭식형을 초식형, 여과섭식형, 퇴적물섭식형, 잡식형, 포식형으로 구분하였을 때, 조사해역에서는 초식형과 여과섭식형이 우점하였다. 해역별로는 동해에서 초식형 비율(47.9%)이 가장 높았고, 남해에서는 초식형(32.6%)과 여과섭식형의 비율(29.6%)이 유사하게 높았으며, 황해에서는 여과섭식형 비율(42.3%)이 우세하여 해역별로 섭식형에 따른 연체동물의 군집구조가 뚜렷한 차이를 보였다. 이 결과를 바탕으로 "연체동물의 해역별 섭식형에 따른 군집구조 차이가 우연한 것인지?" 아니면, 각 "섭식형별 활용 가능한 먹이자원의 종류와 양(조성율, %)적 차이에 의한 것인지?"를 파악한 결과, 섭식형에 따른 군집구조의 차이는 각 섭식형별 활용 가능 먹이자원의 종류와 양적 차이에서 기인됨을 확인하였다. 초식형이 우점한 동해에서는 투명도가 상대적으로 2배 정도 높아 해조류 성장에 유리하였으며, 그 중에서도 엽상형(sheet form)과 다육질형(thick-leathery form)의 해조류 군집이 발달되어 있어 초식형의 먹이자원이 풍부하였다. 한편, 초식형과 여과섭식형의 비율이 유사하게 높았던 남해에서는 해조류 군집이 발달되었을 뿐만 아니라, 식물플랑크톤 밀도가 상대적으로 가장 높았으며, 황해는 타 해역 대비 해조류의 서식량이 가장 낮은 반면 식물플랑크톤의 밀도는 유사하여 여과섭식형의 서식에 유리한 조건이었다. 따라서, 연체동물의 군집구조, 특히 섭식형에 기초한 'Feeding guild'로서의 군집구조는 우연히 결정되는 것이 아니라, 이들의 서식지 내에서 이용 가능한 먹이자원의 종류 및 양이 하나의 주요한 결정 요소로 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다.
