Rhodophyta is one of major groups in the number of species and diversity of the marine algal flora. The occurrence of Korean 5 red algal species is reported for the first time on the list of Korean marine algal flora based on morphology: Ceramium pacificum, Cumathanmnion serrulatum, Gayliella fimbriata, Leptofauchea rhodymenioides, Sorella pulchra. Ceramium pacificum from Korea is recognized by complete cortication, many adventitious branches in a radial arrangement, 7-8 periaxial cells, and plant length of 1-2 cm. Cumathanmnion serrulatum is characterized by cartilaginous single main axis with a prominent midrib, serrulate blade, many higher orders of bladelets on each blade, and tetrasporagia produced near the midrib acropetally and then outwardly. Gayliella fimbriata is featured by clavate gland cell and 5-7 periaxial cells. Leptofauchea rhodymenioides is characterized by erect with flattened, dichotomously branched fronds, 1-2 cortical cells loosely arranged, 2-3 cell medullar layers with large colourless cells. Sorella pulchrais recognized by short branches produced alternately pinnate manner from margins of axial, mostly polystromatic frond, and tetrasporangial sori on the center of branches.

Chitin deacetylase (CDA) inhibitors were developed as novel antifungal agents because CDA participates in critical fungal physiological and metabolic processes and increases virulence in soil-borne fungal pathogens. However, few CDA inhibitors have been reported. In this study, 150 candidate CDA inhibitors were selected from the commercial Chemdiv compound library through structure-based virtual screening. The top-ranked 25 compounds were further evaluated for biological activity. The compound J075-4187 had an IC50 of 4.24 ± 0.16 µM for AnCDA. Molecular docking calculations predicted that compound J075-4187 binds to the amino acid residues, including active sites (H101, D48). Furthermore, compound J075-4187 inhibited food spoilage fungi and plant pathogenic fungi, with minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) at 260 ㎍/ml and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) at 520 ㎍/ml. Therefore, compound J075-4187 is a good candidate for use in developing antifungal agents for fungi control.

최근 우리나라에서는 산업이 급속도로 발전하면서 급증하는 전력수요를 충당하기 위하여 원자력발전소의 건설과 가동이 증가 추세에 있다. 수년에 걸친 발전소의 건설 과정에서 부지의 매립과 준설은 저서 해조류의 서식처를 교란시키고 이는 나아가서 종조성의 변화를 야기한다. 발전소가 정상 가동하게 되면 필연적으로 다량의 온배수를 주변으로 방출하는데, 고착성 해조류는 수온의 상승에 민감하게 반응한다. 국내 원자력발전소에서는 냉각수가 복수기를 통과하면서 수온이 7~12$^{\circ}C$ 상승하게 되며, 짧은 거리의 배수로를 거쳐 주변으로 방출된다. 배수로에 인접한 구역에서는 저서 해조류의 종조성과 다양성 이 감소하는 것으로 조사되었다. 한편 발전소 냉각계통의 가동은 해조류 개체군 수준에서 생장률과 생장주기에 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 연안수와 혼합되기 전의 배수로에 출현하는 해조류는 높은 수온에서도 견딜 수 있는 내열종으로 간주될 수 있으며, 동해안에 위치한 3개 원자력발전소의 배수로에서 1992~1998년에 걸쳐 출현한 해조류 중 출현빈도 20%이상의 내열종 해조류는 총 35종(남조류 4종, 녹조류 9종, 갈조류 8종, 홍조류 14종)이었다. 해조류가 우리 민족에게 귀중한 자원이 되고 있음을 고려해 볼 때, 발전소로부터 방출되는 폐열이 해조식생에 미치는 영향을 저감시킬 수 있는 대책 수립이 요망된다.

모든 액체는 소량의 기체성분들이 녹아있으며, 액체에 용해되는 기체의 양은 액체에 작용하는 주위압력에 기여하는 각 기체성분의 분압에 비례한다는 헨리의 법칙을 따른다. 따라서 다단증발식 해수담수화설비의 경우, 각 증발단의 운전온도와 압력은 다르며, 이 운전조건에 비례하여 해수에 용해되어 있던 기체들이 증발과정에서 방출되는데 주성분은 불응축기체인 이산화탄소, 질소, 산소 및 아르곤이다. 대류열전달의 입장에서는 불응축기체는 증발증기를 응축시키는 냉각기의 성능을 저하시키는 주요한 원인이기 때문에 증발과정에서 방출되는 불응축기체의 평가는 증발식 해수담수화설비에서 중요한 설계인자 중의 한가지이다. 증발식 해수담수화공정의 경우, 대부분의 증발기는 진공압력으로 유지되기 때문에 진공유지장치의 설계를 위해서는 증발과정에서 해수로부터 방출되는 불응축기체의 방출량을 평가하는 것이 매우 중요다. 본 연구는 불응축기체의 방출량을 정량적으로 계산하기 위해 수행하였으며, 연구결과에 따르면 불응축가스의 방출량은 후단으로 갈수록 감소하며, 담수생산량에 비례함을 알 수 있었다.

Rice blast, caused by Pyricularia oryzae (P. oryzae), is generally considered to be the most serious fungal disease of rice by its widespread distribution and destructiveness (Manandhar et al., 1998). The pathogenic fungus directly penetrates into the rice plant from a cellular structure called an appressorium that is formed at the tip of the germ tube. And the fungus can attack any aerial part of the rice plant, including seeds, in which the fungus may overwinter for several years. (omitted)

The appearence of organochlorine pesticide residues in some marinealgae, e.g. Sargassum thunbergii, Ulva pertusa, Codium fragile, and Enteromorpha linza, collected from various sites of Kwang Yang Bay, southern coast of Korea, was surveyed through the year from May 1974 to March 1975. The residues were found to appear in the order to July>September>May>November≒March≒January; $\alpha$-BHC>heptachlor epoxide>dieldrin>aldrin>endrin; and in the range of 0-93 $\mu\textrm{g}$/kg dry matter.

Background: Halophyte plant (HPs), a salt-resistant flora, has been reported to provide several health benefits, but the knowledge of its cosmeceutical potential is still ambiguous. Here, 70% ethanol extracts of 22 HPs collected from along the coast of South Korea were investigated for their potentials of antioxidant, anti-aging, and whitening properties for use as materials in novel cosmeceuticals. Methods: Antioxidant activities were determined by DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-pricrylhydrazyl) free radical and hydrogen peroxide scavenging assays, and skin aging-related enzyme activities (anti-elastase, anti-collagenase, anti-hyaluronidase, and anti-tyrosinase) were evaluated by using the spectrophotometric method. Results: Among the 22 HPs, we found that Ischaemum antephoroides f. coreana and Atriplex gmelinii extracts presented the strongest scavenging effects against DPPH free radical and hydrogen peroxide, respectively. Our finding additionally suggested that Salicornia europaea extract might provide a major source of anti-elastase and anti-hyaluronidase; meanwhile, Rosa rugosa extract showed the highest anti-collagenase effect. Furthermore, the highest tyrosinase inhibitory activity was possessed by Spartina anglica extract. Conclusion: These findings may suggest that halophyte plants showing biological activities may be potent inhibitors of tyrosinase, elastase, collagenase, and hyaluronidase and could be useful for application in cosmeceuticals.

An endophytic bacterial strain YC5480 producing antifungal and phytotoxic compounds simultaneously was isolated from the surface sterilized root of Artemisia sp. collected at Jinju area, Korea. The bacterial strain was identified as a species of Pseudomonas brassicacearum based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis and physiological and biochemical characteristics. The seed germination and growth of monocot and dicot plants were inhibited by culture filtrate (1/10-strength Tryptic Soy Broth) of the strain. The germination rate of radish seeds in the culture filtrate differed in various culture media. Only 20% of radish seeds germinated in the culture media of 1/2 TSB for 5 days incubation. Mycelial growth of fungal pathogens, Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, Fusarium oxysporum and Phytophthora capsici was also inhibited by the culture filtrate of the strain YC5480. An antifungal compound, KS-1 with slight inhibitory activity of radish seed germination at 1,000 ppm and a seed germination inhibitory compound, KS-2 without suppression of fungal growth were produced simultaneously in TSB. The compounds KS-1 and KS-2 were identified to be 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (DAPG) and 2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone (THA), respectively.
