Treating with step concentration of papain, round mucle of Korean cattle were cut in longitudinal and cross section and stained. Collagenous fibre and elastic fibre of its connective tissue were observed microscopically. The results were as follows: 1) In proportion to the increase of enzyme concentration amorphous bundle of collagenous fibre were loosed gradually and destroyed in the long run and besides the property of this fibre stained became remarkably weak. 2) Elastic fibre was paralleled to muscle fibre and in proportion to the increase of enzyme concentration, it was lost elasticity, loosed, straightened and broken remarkably to pieces. 3) Histological variation of collagenous fibre and elastic fibre treated with enzyme was more remarkable than control.

120 health korean and 43 korean with cancer (gastric, rectal, breast, aged 20 to C9 years in Yanbian district) were measured by atomic absorbtion spectrometer(Type WFX-II). The results obtained are as follows; in heath1 person hair, Zn $103.87{\pm}13.9$ppm, Cu $10.77{\pm}2.62$, Cr$0.288{\pm}0.121$ppm, Zn/Cu $10.77{\pm}3.24$. There is no significant difference betwen male and female, and korean and Han. Zn contents in hairs of patients with cancer significantly lower than that of health persons ; Cu and Cr contents are nearly same in both groups.

The objective of the current study was to determine the effects of the crude polysaccharide isolated from fruit body of Pleurotus eryngii on mouse splenocytes, B cells, and macrophages in vitro. The crude polysaccharides directly induced the proliferation of spleen cells in a dose-dependent manner and increased IL-6 and IFN-${\gamma}$ synthesis. The crude polysaccharides also increased the proliferation of B cells in a dose-dependent manner. The production of immunoglobulin Gl, G2a and IgG3 in the presence of the crude polysaccharides was increased progressively in the culture supernatant. When the crude polysaccharide were used in macrophage cell line (RA W264.7) stimulation, there were marked induction of NO synthesis in a dose-dependent manner and IL-6, TNF- r and GM-CSF synthesis. These results suggest that the crude polysaccharide isolated from fruit body of Pleurotus eryngii seem to act as a potent immunomodulator causing augmentation of immune cell activity, and thus could be used as a biological response modifier having possible therapeutic effects against immunological disorders, without any side effects.

무, 당근 및 감자를 대상으로 조리방법 (boiling, pressure cooking, microwave cooking)에 따른 dietary fiber 성분, 수분함량 및 조직감의 변화에 대하여 조사하였으며 조직감에 영향을 미치는 성분에 대해 연구해보았다. 시료내에 존재하는 pectin의 함량은 조리시 원료시료에 비해 현저하게 감소하였으며, microwave cooking>pressure cooking>boiling의 순서로 점차 감소하였다(P<0.05). ADF, NDF 및 Cellulose, Hemicellulose, Lignin은 boiling과 pressure cooking의 경우에는 원료시료에 비해 모든 성분이 증가현상을 나타내었으며, microwave cooking의 경우에는 감소하였다(P<0.01). Hemicellulose와 lignin은 조리에 의한 영향을 거의 받지 않는 것으로 나타났으며, cellulose는 조리 방법에 따라 상당한 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 조리방법에 따른 수분함량의 변화는, boiling시에는 원료시료에 비해 현저한 증가를 보였으며, pressure cooking의 경우에는 조금 감소하였으나 뚜렷한 차이가 없었고, microwave cooking시에는 현저한 감소현상을 나타내었다(P<0.001). 조리 방법에 따른 조직감의 변화는 침투시험시에는 maximum force가 raw>microwave cooking>pressure cooking>boiling의 순서로 점차 감소하였으며, 절단 시험시에는 maximum force가 microwave cooking>pressure cooking>raw>boiling의 순서로 점차 감소하였다. 관능검사 결과, 견고성은 원료시료가 가장 컸으며, microwave cooking>pressure cooking>boiling한 시료의 순서로 점차 감소하였고 씹힘성은 microwave cooking방법으로 조리한 시료가 가장 컸으며, pressure cooking>raw>boiling의 순서로 점차 감소하였다. 기계적 측정 결과와 관능검사 결과를 연관시킨 결과, 높은 연관성이 있었다. 이러한 결과로부터 조리시 시료의 견고성은 pectin의 함량과 밀접한 관계가 있어서, 즉 pectin의 함량이 증가함에 따라 견고성이 증가되는 것을 알 수 있었고, 씹힘성은 수분함량과 밀접한 관련이 있어서, 즉 수분함량이 감소함에 따라 씹힘성이 증가되는 것을 알 수 있다. 이상과 같은 결과들은 무, 당근 및 감자에 있어서 모두 같은 경향을 나타내었다.

To gain a better understanding of the germination and growth of Scirpus maritimus, pot and field experiments were conducted to observe the development of new rhizomes and tubers, the growth rate of culms. and the germination behaviour of tubers of this perennial weed. Tuber placement, water depth, salinity and pH were also observed for their possible influence on the growth of S. maritimus.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of the red light on embryo tissue of barley during germination. The solubility of starch in endosperm of germinated barley was different between dark and red treatments at the 3rd day of germination, but was increased by the red light from the 4th day of germination. Blue value of the starch in the germinated barley decreased rapidly from 0.42 at the 1st day to 0.13 at the 6th day in the dark, and same tendency was found in the red light, but blue value was lower in the red light than in the dark. Aleurone cell wall was swollen much faster in the red light than in the dark during germination. The cell wall was broken down more greatly in the red light than in the dark at the 5th day of germination.

Effects of salinity on survival, growth and oxygen consumption rates were examined in the mysid, Neomysis awatschensis. Mysids were exposed to various concentrations of salinity (0, 3.4, 6.7, 10.1, 13.4, 20.2, 27.4 and 33.6$\textperthousand$) for 40 days. Survival rate was significantly declined at below 6.7$\textperthousand$ after 40 days. Body length and daily growth rate of mysids exposed at below 6.7$\textperthousand$ salinity were significantly decreased than those of mysids exposed at above 10.1$\textperthousand$ salinity. Oxygen consumpiton rate of mysid exposed at salinity raining of 10.1~39.6$\textperthousand$ during 40 days not greatly changed in comparison with that before salinity treatment, but that of mysid exposed at below 6.7$\textperthousand$ significantly decreased. These results indicated that low salinity concentration ($\leq$6.7$\textperthousand$) reduced survival, growth and oxygen consumption rates of the mysid suggesting potential influence on the natural mortality of Neomysis awatschensis in the estuarine and coastal areas.

In order to get infonnations on the development of alcohol induced cardiovascular disorders, primary cultured vascular smooth muscle cells (PVSMC) were treated with acetaldehyde, one of the most reactive metabolites of ethanol. Acetaldehyde caused the striking release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) from PVSMC and it stimulated the prostaglandin synthesis in the same system. But it didn't induce cyclooxygenase activity. lipoxygenase inhibitors-propyl gallate and nordihydroguaiaretic acid could reverse the effect of acetaldehyde, but dexamethasone, a phospholipase $A_2\;(PIA_2)$ inhibitor and cyclooxygenase inhibitors except indomethacin could not protect the cells from acetaldehyde toxicity. These results indicate that enhanced prostaglandin synthesis by acetaldehyde is not a direct cause of cell death, but secondary effect due to the activation of PIAl and also, the roles of the lipoxygenase metabolites and/or $PIA_2$ activity itself might be more important in the cytotoxicity of acetaldehyde.

Raw adlay powder(RAP) and processed adlay powder(PAP) were prepared and the changes of lipids in RAP and PAP during storage at $5^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$ for six months were studied. The typical patterns of lipid oxidation were observed during the storage; the values of acid, peroxide and carbonyl in the lipids were increased and the iodine value was decreased. These changes were especially significant(P<0.05) at higher temperature($35^{\circ}C$) and were more notable in the lipids from RAP than those from PAP during storage. The contents of neutral lipid, glycolipid and phospholipid were changed appreciably at $35^{\circ}C$, however, the changes were not significant(P<0.05) at $5^{\circ}C$. Further more, triglyceride in neutral lipid, digalactosyl diglyceride in glycolipid and phosphatidyl choline in phospholipid showed respectively a tendency of decrease during storage as compared with the other contents of lipid class.

The involvement of central $_{{\alpha}2}$-adrenoceptors in the development of muricide (mouse-killing behavior) in the olfactoly bulbectomized (OB) rats was strudied. The fractional turnover rate of noradrenaline (NA) in forebrain from OB muricidal rats was significantly lowered than that from sham rats. However, after yohimbine or idazoxan treatment, NA turnover was significantly increased in concert with inhibition of the development of muricide in OB rats. By radioligand binding studies with $[^3H]$ yohimbine, the maximum binding $(B_{max})$ of $[^3H]$ yohimbine to cerebral cortical membrane from OB rats was significantly higher than that from sham rats without change of affinity for agonists and antagonists$(K_i)$. With these results it was suggested that muricidal behavior of OB rats has a close relevance to the hyperactivity of central $_{{\alpha}2}$-adrenoceptor system.
