Objectives: This study identified how personal characteristics, healthy behavior and social capital might influence on physical activity of adults. Methods: This study used data from the health survey of a city of Korea. We surveyed 1,000 adults sampled by stratified sampling methods from 67,889 households. Outcome variable was the stage of physical activity which was broken into 5 categories. Sociodemographic factors, healthy behavior, self-rated health status and social capital were used as control variables. Sociodemographic factors included age, sex, educational status, economic status measured by deprivation score, residential period within survey city. Social capital was measured by Integrated Questionnaire for the Measurement of Social Capital (SC-IQ). This study used chi-square test and ordered logistic regression models to examine the associations between independent variables and physical activity. Variables were added to the regression model in three groups using a hierarchical approach. Results: Physical activity was significantly more likely to become active if they have higher educational status, healthier behavior. Among the six dimensions of SC-IQ, only "groups and networks" that is structural dimensions of social capital and "trust and solidarity" that is cognitive dimensions of social capital were significantly related to physical activity of adults. We found that a person having higher density of membership and having larger size of networks showed the high possibility of active physical activity. A person having high solidarity was significantly associated with physical activity, but general trust was inversely related to physical activity. Output dimensions of social capital did not show significant relationship to physical activity. Conclusion: We found that social capital is useful concept to explain health behaviors like physical activity. However we must consider social, cultural and political context of the study to evaluate the effect of social capital to health status and health determinants and to capture the exact meaning of relationship between them. We suggest further researches to refine the concept of social capital and to explain the relationship of social capital to diverse health determinants.

Major findings are as follows; 1. The total mean score of the employees' HPL performance was 2.66. The average scores of 'harmonious relationships' category were the highest as 3.11, whereas the one of 'professional health maintenance' were the lowest as 2.02.

미역, 다시마 등 갈조류의 추출물로서 생리활성성분으로 각광 받고 있는 fucoidan이 멜라닌 합성에 미치는 영양을 알아봄으로써 미백제로서의 개발 가능성 여부를 확인하지 위하여 B16F10 melnoma 세포를 이용하여 멜라닌 합성과 tyrosmase 활성도에 대한 실험의 결과 B16F10 melnoma 세포의 멜라닌 생성과 tyrosinase 활성도는 fucoidan의 농도가 증가함에 따라 농도 의존적으로 억제되었다. B16F10 melnoma 세포에 ${\alpha}$-MSH를 투여 후 멜라닌 생성과 tyrosinase의 활성도 역시 fucoidan의 농도가 증가할수록 멜라닌 생성과 tyrosmase 활성도가 억제되는 경향을 보였다. 또한 DOPA 염색의 결과 fucoidan은 농도 의존적으로 tyrosinase 활성도를 억제하였다. 이상의 결과 해조 추출 다당류인 furosinase은 B16F10 melanoma 세포의 멜라닌 합성과 tyrosinase 활성도 억제 작용을 나타내므로 미백 활성 물질로서의 가능성을 가지고 있는 것으로 생각된다.
