An Actinomycetes strain JB isolated from Mt. Hanla had a strong antimicrobial activity against gram positive bacteria and tumor cell growth inhibition. Especially, it couldn't degrade starch and casein as organic compounds. It was resist on lincomycin and rifampicin. The spore mass of strain JB which was arethrospore was white. DAP of the cell wall was L, L-DAP. Antimicrobial material was heat stable, dissolved in ethyl acetate, and not dissolved in butanol. In the pressnce of 0.1% phenol and 4% sodium chloride, strain JB could grow, but it didn't growth at below $10^{\circ}C$. Strain JB didn't use dextran, sodium acetate and sodium citrate as sole carbon source and L-cystein and L-thereonine as nitrogen source. The filtered broth of strain JB had the antimicrobial activity against gram positive bacteria, especially Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 65389) and the growth inhibition of tumor cell line.

Seven phenolic compounds including p-coumaric acid (1), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (2), 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde (3), vanillic acid (4), luteolin (5), acacetin (6), and tricin (7), were isolated from the methylene chloride and ethyl acetate fractions of Echinochloa utilis grains. Compounds (1 - 4, 6) were isolated for the first time from this plant. These compounds were tested for inhibitory activities against LPS-induced NO production in RAW 264.7 cells. Compounds 5 and 6 displayed significant inhibitory effects, with $IC_{50}$ values of $27.9{\pm}2.6$ and $14.0{\pm}1.1{\mu}M$, respectively. The results suggested that E. utilis ethanolic extract may be used as a potential source of anti-inflammatory agents and functional foods for the treatment of allergic diseases.

This work reports the preparation of proton conductive crosslinked polymer electrolyte membranes by blending poly(vinyl chloride)-g-poly(hydroxyl ethyl acrylate) (PVC-g-PHEA) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The PHEA chains of the graft copolymer were crosslinked with PVA using sulfosuccinic acid (SA) via the esterification reaction between -OH of polymer matrix and -COOH of SA. The PVC-g-PHEA graft copolymer was synthesized via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) using direct initiation of the secondary chlorines of PVC backbones. Ion exchange capacity (IEC) continuously increased with increasing concentrations of SA, due to the increasing portion of charged groups in the membrane. However, the water uptake increased up to 20.0 wt% of SA concentration above which it decreased monotonically. The membrane exhibited a maximum proton conductivity of 0.026 S/cm at 20.0 wt% of SA concentration, which is presumably due to competitive effect between the increase of ionic sites and the crosslinking reaction.

[FeⅡ2(N-Et-HPTB)Cl2]BPh4(1), where N-Et-HPTB is the anion of N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(N-ethyl-2-benzimidazolylmethyl)-2-hydroxy-l,3-diaminopropane, has been synthesized to model dioxygen binding to the diferrous centers of proteins. 1 has a singly bridged structure with a μ-alkoxo of N-Et-HPTB and contains two five-coordinate iron(Ⅱ) centers with two chloride ligands as exogenous ligands. 1 exhibits an electronic spectrum with a λmax at 336 nm in acetone. 1 in acetone exhibits no EPR signal at 4 K, indicating diiron(Ⅱ) centers are antiferromagnetically coupled. Exposure of acetone solution of 1 to O2 at -90 ℃ affords an intense blue color intermediate showing a broad band at 586 nm. This absorption maximum of the dioxygen adduct(1/O2) was found in the same region of μ-l,2-peroxo diiron(Ⅲ) intermediates in the related complexes with pendant pyridine or benzimidazole ligand systems. However, this blue intermediate exhibits EPR signals at g = 1.93, 1.76, and 1.59 at 4 K. These g values are characteristic of S = 1/2 system derived from an antiferromagnetically coupled high-spin Fe(Ⅱ)Fe(Ⅲ) units. 1 is the unique example of a (μ-alkoxo)diferrous complex which can bind dioxygen and form a metastable mixed-valence intermediate. At ambient temperature, most of 1/O2 intermediate decays to form a diamagnetic species. It suggests that the dacay reaction of the intermediate might be bimolecular, implying the formation of mixed-valence tetranuclear species in transition state.

Inula helenium L. is rich source of eudesmane-type sesquiterpene lactones, mainly alantolactone and isoalantolactone, which have the various pharmacological functions. In this study, we examined the inhibitory effects of nitric oxide (NO) production of hexane, methylene chloride, ethyl acetate, butanol, and water fractions from I. helenium and investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of hexane fraction of I. helenium (HFIH) in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells. Quantification of alantolactone and isoalantolactone from HFIH was carried out for the standardization by multiple reaction monitoring using triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. HFIH significantly inhibited inducible NO synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) protein as well as their downstream products NO and prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Moreover, HFIH suppressed $NF-{\kappa}B$ transcriptional activity by decreasing the translocation of p65 to the nucleus. The in vivo study further confirmed that HFIH attenuated the paw edema induced by carrageenan in an acute inflammation model. These findings suggest that HFIH may be useful as a promising phytomedicine for inflammatory-associated diseases.

Trichoderma 속 균주에 대한 낙엽송 및 미송 열수추출물의 항균활성은 미송 추출물이 낙엽송 추출물보다 높게 나타났지만, 낙엽송과 미송의 열수추출물로부터 분리된 n-hexane 분획물에 의한 항균활성 차이는 거의 없었다. 미송 열수추출물과 낙엽송 및 미송의 열수출물로부터 획득된 n-hexane 분획물은 Trichoderma 속에 대한 항균원료로서 사용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Objectives: Phthalates are used as plasticizers in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. As phthalate plasticizers are not chemically bound to the PVC, they can leach, migrate or evaporate into indoor air and atmosphere, foodstuffs, other materials, etc. Therefore, humans are exposed through ingestion, inhalation, and dermal exposure over their entire lifetime, including during intrauterine development. In particular, university students have a great number of opportunities to contact products including phthalates during campus life (food packaging, body care products, cosmetic, lotions, aftershave, perfume etc.). The purpose of this study was to examine levels of phthalate exposure as undergraduate students begin to use pharmaceuticals and personal care products including phthalates. Methods: Phthalate metabolites, mono-ethyl phthalate (MEP), mono-n-butyl phthalate (MnBP), mono-isobutyl phthalate (MiBP), mono-2- ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP), {(mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP}, and mono-(2-ethlyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate (MEOHP} were examined. 80 urine samples collected from university students were analyzed using LC/MS/MS(API 4000, Applied Bioscience) with on-line enrichment and columnswitching techniques. This study was carried out at Y university located in Gyonggi Province from 2008 to 2011. Results: The detection limit of phthalate metabolites were 0.03 ng/mL for MEP, 0.11 ng/mL for MnBP, 0.08 ng/mL for MiBP, 0.93 ng/mL for MEHP, 0.19 ng/mL for MEOHP and 0.16ng/mL for MEHHP. MnBP showed the highest urinary levels (median: 31.6 ug/L, 24.8 ug/g creatinine (cr)). Concentrations were also high for MEHHP (median: 24.1 ug/L, 19.0 ug/g cr), followed by MEOHP (median: 22.8 ug/L, 17.9 ug/g cr). In individual cases, the maximum level reached up to 348 ug/L, and 291 ug/g cr, respectively. The urinary and creatinine adjusted levels of MEP were lower than those for DBP and DEHP metabolites, but were higher in 95th percentiles. As a result, the mean daily DEP intake value was 2.3 ${\mu}g/kg$ bw/day, 3.5 ${\mu}g/kg$ bw/day for DEHP and 4.9 ${\mu}g/kg$ bw/day for DBP. Conclusion: These students' phthalate exposure levels were below the international safe level set by the EU, but higher than the 2012 KFDA survey of the age group from 3 to 18.
