Adenanthera pavonina L. is an important medicinal plant for Indonesian traditional medicine ("Jamu"). The present study is to determine the phenolic content and evaluate the antioxidant activity of ethyl acetate and ethanolic extracts of leaves and bark of A. pavonina. The total phenolic content was determined using the Folin-Ciocalteu reagent methods, and the antioxidant activity was performed by phosphomolybdate assay, through EC₅₀ values. The highest phenolic content (81.379 mg GAE/g) was found in the hydro-ethanolic extract of the leaves and (80.630 mg GAE/g) in the bark. The antioxidant activity of the two samples was 42.270 ㎍/mL (leaves) and 45.261 ㎍/mL (bark). Plants have the potential as drugs with good antioxidant potential and phenolic compound content. Further scientific studies of this plant are supported to evaluate the antioxidant activity using other methods to validate these preliminary experiments properly.

Advanced glycation end products(AGEs) are largly involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. It is obvious that inhibition of AGEs formation is important in preventing the occurrence and progression of diabetic nephropathy. In diabetes, this reaction is greatly accerated and is important in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, especially diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, to seek possible AGEs inhibitors in herbal medicines, unprocessed - and processed Magnolia Bark were examined in vitro as basic data for aniaml experiment. The content of magnolol in unprocessed Magnolia Bark was $0.796{\pm}0.072%$, and after processing was decreased to $0.586{\pm}0.101%(p<0.01)$. The content of AGEs was measured by their intrinsic fluorescence. The $IC_{50}({\mu}g/ml)$ values of aminoguanidine, unprocessed- and procesled Magnolia Bark are $38.845{\pm}8.36{\mu}g/ml$, $54.264{\pm}3.153{\mu}g/ml$ and $27.882{\pm}1.836{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. This result means that prcessed Magnolia Bark was more effective than aminoguanidine, as positive control.

Ethanol crude extracts of wood, bark, leaf, and fruit of Callistenwn citrinus were compared for their antioxidant activities based on DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) radical-scavenging activity and reducing power. Bark extract showed the most potent radical-scavenging activity and reducing power, showing 94.1 and 0.64% at 25 and $100\;{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Total phenolic content of the bark extracts (275.0 mg GAE/g) was higher than those of others. Further fractionation of the bark extract using hexane, $CH_2Cl_2$, and EtOAc showed EtOAc fraction had the highest antioxidant activity ($IC_{50}\;6.7\;{\mu}g/mL$) and reducing power (0.82 at $100\;{\mu}g/mL$), with total phenolic content of 611.1 mg GAE/g. Total phenolic contents correlated with antioxidant activity ($R^2\;=\;0.7061$) and reducing power ($R^2\;=\;0.7399$).

To determine the accumulation and distribution of heavy metals in plants and soils of roadsides, the leaf and bark of Ginkgo biloba and Platanus occidentalis, and the soil were sample from Masan-city roadside and Chinhae forest land in July and November, 1994. The content of heavy metals from all the samples in Masan-city area was much higher than that in Chinhae forest land. The amount of heavy metals in soil was higher than those in plant parts of boty trees. The total amount of heavy metals of the bark was higher than the leaf of G. biloba plants. But that of the bark was less than the leaf of P. occidentalis. Heavy metal content in plants (leaf, bark) varied among elements and collections. The concentrations of heavey metals in both trees were in the order of Zn > Cu > Pb > Cd. The concentrations of the four heavy metals in leaf and Zn in soil in G. Biloba were seasonally changed. Whereas those in P. occidentalis were not significantly changed. And there was a high correlation between the concentrations of Pb and Cu in both trees.

This study was carried out to manufacture bark board from oak bark by new processes and to examine the physical and mechanical properties of the board. This process with no addition of adhesive used higher pressure and temperature than the conventional one and was applied with or without paraformaldehyde. The results are as follows: 1. The new manufacturing process allowed a good bark board with high absorption coefficient. 2. The best manufacturing process for the mechanical properties of bark board was paraformaldehyde 10%-$250^{\circ}C$-100kg/$cm^2$-3 minutes, (bending strength 40kg/$cm^2$, internal bonding strength 2kg/$cm^2$) and the best manufacturing process for both the mechanical properties of bark board and economic point of view was $250^{\circ}C$-100kg/$cm^2$-3 minutes (bending strength 28kg/$cm^2$, internal bonding strength 1.52kg/$cm^2$). 3. Bark board showed specific gravities from 0.94 to 1.03 and air dried moisture content 9.2% to 11.7%, but Bark board needed paraffin wax emusion treatment. 4. The absorption coefficient of bark boards had two peaks along with frequency; one in 200-400 cps, the other 1200-2000 cps. The former was low but the latter great.

리기다소나무와 신갈나무 목분에 낙엽송 수피 또는/그리고 인공건조시 발생하는 폐액을 첨가제로 사용하여 펠릿을 제조하고, 이에 대한 연료적 특성의 분석을 통하여 고등급 목재펠릿 제조를 위한 원료 및 제조조건을 제공하고자 본 연구를 수행하였다. 첨가제에 대한 화학적 조성을 조사한 결과, 수피는 90% 이상의 전섬유소와 리그닌으로 구성되어 있었으며, 건조폐액은 대부분 당 성분이라 추정되는 0.1%의 고형분을 가지고 있었다. 신갈나무 목분은 수피의 포함으로 회분 함량(2.2%)이 높았으며, 수피와 건조폐액도 4% 이상의 회분을 가진 것으로 조사되었다. 목분 및 첨가제의 발열량은 모두 국립산림과학원(NIFOS)에서 고시한 "목재제품의 규격과 품질기준"의 목재펠릿 1급 기준(18.0 MJ/kg) 보다 높았다. 피스톤형 펠릿성형기로 제조한 펠릿은 첨가제의 양이 2 wt%인 관계로 회분함량과 발열량에 영향을 미치지 않았다. 내구성의 경우, 대부분의 제조 조건에서 첨가제의 사용에 의하여 증가하였다. 한편 첨가제로 수피 그리고 목분의 함수율 조절을 위하여 건조폐액을 함께 첨가하여 제조한 펠릿의 내구성은 첨가제없이 제조한 펠릿과 차이가 없었으며, 수피 또는 건조폐액을 각각 첨가제로 사용하여 제조한 펠릿보다 낮았다. 그러나 펠릿 제조비용 측면에서 건조폐액은 폐수처리에 따른 수익이 가능한 관계로 수피와 건조폐액을 공동으로 펠릿 제조에 사용하는 것이 유리할 것으로 생각한다. 피스톤형 펠릿성형기로 제조한 펠릿의 연료적 특성 측정 결과를 토대로 파일럿 규모의 평다이펠릿성형기로 리기다소나무 및 신갈나무 펠릿을 제조하였다. 제조된 펠릿의 함수율은 목분 및 첨가제의 사용과 상관없이 NIFOS 1급 기준($${\leq_-}$$10%)을 모두 만족하였다. 이에 대한 겉보기밀도와 내구성 측정결과를 종합하면, 첨가제의 사용은 리기다소나무의 경우 목분 함수율을 10%로 조절하고 수피나 건조폐액을 사용하는 것이 그리고 신갈나무의 경우 12%의 목분 함수율에 수피를 사용하는 것이 각각의 최적 목재펠릿 제조 조건이라 생각한다. 신갈나무 펠릿의 회분 함량을 제외하고 이 조건에서 제조한 목재펠릿의 품질은 NIFOS 목재펠릿 1급 기준을 크게 상회하는 것으로 나타났다.

Objectives : The objective of this research was to investigate the antioxidant activities of stem bark of Maackia amurensis extract.Methods : Stem bark of Maackia amurensis extract were prepared using 70% methanol. Methanol extracts were fractionated to hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butyl alcohol, water fractions and investigated. The antioxidant activities of fractions was evaluated by four different assays as total polyphenol contents, total flavonoid contents, DPPH(1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) free-radical scavenging activity and ABTS(2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) scavenging ability.Results : The yield of methanolic extracts from stem bark of Maackia amurensis was 10.16%, whereas those of its solvent fractions (hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, butyl alcohol, and water) were 5.45, 11.39, 13.88, 26.07, and 40.80%, respectively. The total polyphenol contents and electron donating ability of 70% methanol extracts from stem bark of Maackia amurensis were 15.44 mg/g and 194.15 μg/mL of its IC₅₀, respectively. The 70% methanol extracts showed the highest antioxidant activity. The total polyphenol content and total flavonoid content of chloroform fractions were higher in each of 201.98 mg/g and 13.55 mg/g. The chloroform fraction showed the lowest levels of DPPH(IC₅₀, 183.95 μg/mL) and ABTS scavenging activity(IC₅₀, 10.0 μg/mL). The antioxidant activity was detected in methanol extract, chloroform fractions.Conclusions : These results indicate that 70% methanol extract and its fractions of stem bark of Maackia amurensis, especially chloroform fraction, have the properties of anti-oxidant suggesting stem bark of Maackia amurensis may be a candidate for natural and functional materials.
