포유동물 세포인 CHL세포를 대상으로 MMC를 농도별로 투여하여 세포분열지수 및 염색체 이상 유발 및 그 양반응관계를 관찰하고 현미 추출물이 MMC에 의한 염색체 이상 빈도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 1. 대조군인 DMSO처리구에 비해 MMC 및 현미 추출물 투여에 의해 CHL세포의 세포분열 지수는 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 2. CHL 세포를 대상으로 MMC의 농도를 $0.2{\sim}5.0\;{\mu}g/assay(0.04{\sim}1.0\;{\mu}g/ml)$로 하여 염색체 이상 빈도를 살펴본 결과 $0.2\;{\mu}g/assay$에서 $3.0\;{\mu}g/assay$까지 MMC의 농가 증가함에 따라 염색체 이상의 빈도가 점차 증가하는 경향을 나타내었으며, MMC의 농도가 $3.0\;{\mu}g/assay$ 보다 높았을 경우에는 MMC에 의한 세포독성으로 염색체 이상 분석을 할 수 없었다. MMC에 의한 염색체 이상은 염색분체형의 갭과 절단이 많이 관찰되었다. 3. 세포를 변이원 MMC $2\;{\mu}g/assay(0.04\;{\mu}g/ml)$와 현미 추출물을 $0.75{\sim}10.0\;mg/assay$의 농도로 투여하였을 경우 각 농도에서 유의적으로 MMC에 의한 염색체 이상 빈도를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났으며(p<0.01, p<0.05), 현미 추출물의 농도 증가에 따라서는 염색체 이상을 나타내는 세포수가 다소 불규칙하였으나 $7{\sim}30%$로 감소하는 경향이었다.

The loss of green coloration via chlorophyll (Chl) degradation typically occurs during leaf senescence. To date, many Chl catabolic enzymes have been identified and shown to interact with light harvesting complex II to form a Chl degradation complex in senescing chloroplasts; this complex might metabolically channel phototoxic Chl catabolic intermediates to prevent oxidative damage to cells. The Chl catabolic enzyme 7-hydroxymethyl Chl a reductase (HCAR) converts 7-hydroxymethyl Chl a (7-HMC a) to Chl a. The rice (Oryza sativa) genome contains a single HCAR homolog (OsHCAR), but its exact role remains unknown. Here, we show that an oshcar knockout mutant exhibits persistent green leaves during both dark-induced and natural senescence, and accumulates 7-HMC a and pheophorbide a (Pheo a) in green leaf blades. Interestingly, both rice and Arabidopsis hcar mutants exhibit severe cell death at the vegetative stage; this cell death largely occurs in a light intensity-dependent manner. In addition, 7-HMC a treatment led to the generation of singlet oxygen ($^1O_2$) in Arabidopsis and rice protoplasts in the light. Under herbicide-induced oxidative stress conditions, leaf necrosis was more severe in hcar plants than in wild type, and HCAR-overexpressing plants were more tolerant to reactive oxygen species than wild type. Therefore, in addition to functioning in the conversion of 7-HMC a to Chl a in senescent leaves, HCAR may play a critical role in protecting plants from high light-induced damage by preventing the accumulation of 7-HMC a and Pheo a in developing and mature leaves at the vegetative stage.

본 연구는 기수산 cyclopoid 요각류인 Paracyclopina nana의 먹이 종류와 농도에 따른 섭식률을 조사하였다. 먹이 공급 24 시간 후 먹이의 종류와 농도에 따른 P. nana의 장내용물 함량과 섭취된 먹이의 양을 색소분석 방법으로 조사하였다. T. suecica는 30 ng chl a/ml, I. galbana와 D. tertiolecta는 40 ng chl a/ml, P. tricornutum는 45 ng chl a/ml 농도로 공급하였을 때 섭취된 먹이의 양과 P. nana의 장내용물 함량이 가장 높았다. T. suecica, I. galbana, P. tricornutum, 그리고 D. tertiolecta에 대한 P. nana 성체 1 개체의 시간당 최대 섭식률은 각 미세조류의 공급 농도가 각각 39.3, 44.7, 44.5와 49.8 ng chl a/ml일 때 각각 0.63, 0.60, 0.41 및 0.52 ng chl a로 나타났다. 따라서 P. nana의 대량배양시 가장 적합한 먹이생물은 공급 농도가 낮으면서도 섭식률이 가장 높은 T. suecica이며, 성체 1 개체당 1일 먹이 공급량은 약 $25{\sim}39$ ng chl a (약 $10{\sim}15{\times}10^4$ cells)가 가장 경제적일 것으로 판단된다.

광 차단에 의한 식물플랑크톤 발생량의 저감효과와 수질변화를 분석하기 위하여 주암호의 복교 지점에서 2000년 8월부터 11월까지 수질, Chl-3 농도, 그리고 식물플랑크톤 종조성과 현존량을 측정하였다. 수온, 투명도, DO, TN, $NO_3-N$, $NH_4-N$, TP DIP COD,55, pH 등의 수질항목의 농도는 차광장치 내부지역과 외부지역에서 약간의 차이가 나타났으나 그 차이는 크지 않아 차광장치에 따른 정체로 인한 수질의 변화는 거의 없는 것으로 판단된다. Chl-a의 농도는 차광장치의 내부에서 더 낮게 나타났는데, 차광지역에서의 Chl-a의 농도감소효율은 -6.6${\sim}$40%(평균 14.7%)였다. 차광에 의한 Chl-a의 저감효율은 Chl-a의 농도가 높을 때 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 본 조사기간에 동정된 식물플랑크톤은 1문 5강 11목 21과의 55종이었다. 주요 우점종은 Microcystis aeruginosa, Aulacoseira granulata, Peridinium sp., Synedra spp., Oscillatoria sp., Fragilaria construens, Trachelomonas sp.였으며, 우점종의 변화는 7월의 규조류 우점 ${\to}$ 8${\sim}$9월에 규조류-남조류 혼재기 ${\to}$ 10월의 남조류 우점 ${\to}$ 10${\sim}$11월의 규조류 우점으로 나타났다. 식물플랑크톤의 현존량은 9월 22일 차광시설 외부지역에서 최고($1.1{\times}10^4$cells/L)를, 10월 25일 내부($4.7{\times}10^3$ cells/L)에서 최저를 나타냈다. 차광시설에 의한 식물플랑크톤 현존량 저감율은 8${\sim}$38% (평균 19.9%)로 나타났다. 이상의 결과에서 차광은 식물플랑크톤의 현존량저감에 어느 정도 효과가 있음을 알 수 있었다.

-4-Quinolone antibiotics (pefloxacin, ciprofloxacin, norfoxacin, ofloxacin and enoxacin) were tested for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA1538 and TA102, for chromosomal aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells, and for wing somatic mutations and recombinations (wing spot) in Drosophila. Five 4-quinolones did not show any mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538. However, they were mutagenic inSalmonella typhimurium TA102 with and without metabolic activation in both plate incorporation method and preincubation method. Ciprofloxacin induced structural chromosome aberrations in CHL cells both with and without metabolic activation, and the frequencies were 6% and up to 28%, respectively. Pefloxacin showed equivocal evidence, however, norfloxacin, ofloxacin and enoxacin did not induce the structural chromosome aberrations both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. In the wing spot assay in Drosophila, ofloxacin increased the frequency of small single spots significantly in a dose-dependent manner but there was no dose-dependent increase of single or twin spots in the others.

We observed the frequency of chromosome aberrations induced by UVB irradiations, and the suppressing effect of tannic acid on chromosome aberrations induced by UVB irradiations in CHL cells, which is a phenolic compound, a hydrolysate of tannin and a components of green tea. UVB doses used for the frequency of chromosome aberrations were from 0.2 to 1.6 KJ/m$^2$ and tannic acid concentrations were from 1.16 $\mu$g/ml to 37.50 $\mu$g/ml. For the observation of suppressing effect of tannic acid on UVB-induced chromosome aberrations, UVB dose was 1.6 KJ/m$^2$ and tannic acid concentrations were 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 $\mu$g/ml. In our study, tannic acid was treated for 24 hours in CHL, cells after UVB irradiation without S9 mix or for 6 hours with S9 mix. From this study, we obtained the following results : (1) The frequency of chromosome aberrations UVB induced were dose-dependently increased. (2) The tannic acid did not induce chromosome aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster cells. (3) UVB-induced chromosome aberrations were suppressed by tannic acid at every concentration from 1.0 $\mu$g/ml to 4.0 $\mu$g/ml with or without metabolic activation. These results suggest that the tannic acid acts as an inhibitor to UVB-induced clastogenicity of the cultured cell.

To understand the phytoplankton community in adjacent waters of Ulchin nuclear power plant (UNPP), abundance and the size fractionated $chl-\alpha$ concentrations were evaluated through seasonal interval sampling from April 2003 to February 2004. A total of 211 different phytoplankton species was observed and mean abundance of phytoplankton in each study period ranged from 244,286 to 1,221,779 cells $L^{-1}$. The contributions of microplankton $(>20\mu{m})$ to total phytoplankton abundance ranged from 42.5 to 83.6% (average 66.1%) and those of nanoplankton $(>20\mu{m})$ ranged from 16.4 to 57.5% (average 33.9%). Total chl-$\alpha$ concentrations of phytoplankton ranged from 0.52 to $2.26\mu{g}\;L^{-1}$. The contribution of chl-$\alpha$ concentrations of microplankton was higher than that of nano- and picoplankton through the study period with exception of July 2008. The results of abundances and $chl-\alpha$ concentrations suggest that microplankton has an important role in adjacent waters of UNPP. The diminution of abundances and $chl-\alpha$ concentrations of phytoplankton was observed after passage through the cooling water system, but it was gradually recovered by mixing with the ambient waters. Our results suggested that the influence of thermal discharges on phytoplankton should be restricted within narrow limits around outlet area of thermal effluents.

The green algae Scenedesmus acuminatus was cultured in different media: animal wastewater and an artificial culture medium in order to evaluate potential use for tertiary treatment. The experiments were conducted with air flowrate 1~2 L/min at $28{\sim}30^{\circ}C$. The nitrogen and phosphorus showed very similar removal efficiencies (68~77 % and 69~80 % for nitrogen and phosphorus respectively). The optimal fed period was estimated as three days in the semi-continuous experiment. The effects of $CO_2$ (4.5 %) injection on nutrient uptake from animal wastewater (biological treatment effluent) were compared to an air injection under the same conditions of light and photoperiod. The uptake rates of nutrient with air injection were observed 0.009 gN/gChl-a/day, 0.028 gN/gChl-a/day and T-P 0.003 gP/gChl-a/day for nitrate, total nitrogen and phosphorus respectively. The rates were enhanced by addition of $CO_2$ to 0.026 gN/gChl-a/day, 0.076 gN/gChl-a/day and T-P 0.018 gP/gChl-a/day. This study establishes that $CO_2$ addition during nutrient deprivation of microalgal cells may accelerate tertiary wastewater treatment.

Photoinhibition and its recovery of spectrally adapted Anacystis nidulans were studied. Phycocyanin and Chl content and phycocyanin/Chl ratio were increased in cells grown under blue-green light compared with those grown in white light. Photosynthetic activities of white light and blue-green light grown cells were reduced by 50% after 15 min and 10 min of photoinhibitory light treatment (1.2 mmol·m-2s-1), respectively, largely due to the decline of PSII activities. However, their activities were recovered fully after 30 min incubation under weak light. Treatment of rifampicin and chloramphenicol magnified the photoinhibitory effects and suppressed the recovery with disappearance of susceptibility to photoinhibition and delayed the recovery process, indicating no significant differences in phosphorylation, dephosphorylation and protease activity between two cells. Therefore, it is suggested that the increased sensitivity of blue-green adapted cells might be attributed to the decline of protein synthesis, and phosphorylation-dephosphorylation of protein and protease activity might be involved in the recovery process.
