Effect of 200 ppm lysozyme. 0.1 glycine and 0.1% lysine on inhibition growth of Lactobacillus plantarum was investigated in MRS broth. All samples except control were effective in inhibiting the growth and especially the combination of lysozyme and glycine was observed to be highly effective. The mixture effect against microbial growth was increased as concentration of lysozyme with glycine or lysozyme with EDTA was respectively increased. Lactobacillus plantarum almost didn't grow in MRS broth containing lysozyme(>200 ppm) with glycine(>0.5%), or lysozyme(>200 ppm) with EDTA(> 0.8 mM). It was found that the growth of L. plantarum could be extremely inhibited in 120 ppm lysozyme with at least 0.8 mM EDTA compared with control.

The inhibitory effects of the water and methanol extracts of Jakwangdo and Honghyangmi on the rat microsome lipid peroxidation and growth of four human cancer cells such as HepG2 (liver cancer), SNU-1 (stomach cancer) MCF-7 (breast cancer) and SNU-C4 (colon cancer) were examined. The methanol extracts of red colored rices showed the antioxidant activity and growth inhibitory effects of cancer cells. However, water extracts did not show the activities. Inhibitory activities of methanol extracts of Jakwangdo and Honghyangmi against lipid peroxidation of rat microsome was 80% and 68%, respectively, at the concentration of 1 mg/assay. Jakwangdo methanol extracts showed the highest growth inhibitory activity in MCF-7 cells among the cancer cells tested. The methanol extracts of red colored rices were further fractionated with hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate and butanol. Both chloroform and hexane fractions showed strong growth inhibitory activity in HepG2 and MCF-7 cells.

이 연구는 MCF-7 인간 유방암 세포주에 대한 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 추출물의 증식억제효과 세포독성효과 세포사 유발효과를 확인하기 위하여 이루어졌다. MCF-7 인간 유방암 세포주는 Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium/F12 (DMEM/F12)에 10% fetal bovine serum(FBS;Gibco) 와 항생제를 가하여 만든 배지를 이용하여 배양하였고, MCPF-7 세포를 96- well plate에 접종한 후 다양한 농도(0~2000g/ml)의 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯)이 든 배지로 처리하고 다양한 시간(48, 96, 192)동안 배양하여 현미경으로 관찰하고 각각 MTS assay kit를 이용하여 세포생존율을 측정하였다. 세포독성은 Sulforhodamine B assay 방법을 이용해 측정하였고 세포사 과정에서 MCF-7세포에서의 caspase 활성화를 측정하기 위해 Western blotting을 수행하여 poly ADP ribose polymerase(PARP)의 절단을 확인하였다. 실험결과 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 추출물에 의한 세포성장 및 독성효과는 시간 및 농도에 비례하는 것으로 나타났고 세포고사과정에서 작용하는 caspase의 전 기질인 PARP 절단량이 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯) 처리 농도와 시간에 비례하여 증가하였다. 이것은 caspase-3가 MCF-7 세포의 성장을 억제하는데 중요한 역할을 수행함을 의미한다. 따라서 귀출파징탕(歸朮破癥湯)은 다양한 기전에 의해서 유방암 세포에 대한 억제효과를 가진다는 것을 인식할 수 있다.

We investigated the growth inhibitory effect of internal organs of Todarodes pacificus (TP) on proliferation in human cancer cell lines in vitro. The internal organs of TP were extracted with methanol (TPM), which was then further fractionated into four subfractions by using a solvent partition method, resulting in hexane (TPMH), methanol (TPMM), butanol (TPMB), and aqueous (TPMA) soluble fractions. We determined the cytotoxic effect of these four fractions in three kinds of cancer cell lines - HepG2, MCF-7 and HT-29 - by MTT assay. Among the four subfractions of TPM, TPMH showed the strongest cytotoxic effects at a concentration of $300{\mu}g$/ml, displaying 91.56% on the HepG2 cell line and 85.93% on the MCF-7 cell line. Morphological changes such as membrane shirinking and blebbing of cells were also observed during TPMH treatment of HepG2 cells. In addition, we also observed quinone reductase (QR) induced effect in the methanol (TPMM) layer of HepG2 cells. TPMM showed the highest induction activity of quinone reductase on HepG2 cells among the other partition layers. The QR induced effect of TPMM was determined to be 2.7 at a level of $360{\mu}g$/ml with a control value of 1.0. Although further studies are needed, the present work suggests that internal organs of Todarodes pacificus (TP) may be a chemopreventive agent for the treatment of human cells.

The changes of microorganisms, pH, color and flavor were examined in the chicken treated with O％, 1%, 2%, and 3% lactic acid solutions during the storage at 4$^{\circ}C$. Lactic acid treatment inhibited the growth of mesophiles, psychrotrophs, and enteric bacilli as the concentration increased, however, it was not effective on yeasts and molds. Extension of lag phase for mesophilic bacteria and suppression of log phase for psychrotrophs and enteric bacilli were observed in the growth inhibition patterns. The pH of the chicken increased during the storage and antimicrobial effect of lactic acid appears to be due to mainly the decrease of pH. No flavor change of the chicken was observed by any lactic acid treatment, however, 3％ lactic acid caused discoloration of the chicken.

The extracts of Plocamium telfairiae using several solvents with different polarities were prepared and their growth inhibitory effects were examined on the human cancer cells. We investigated the cytotoxic effects of P. telfairiae extracts on HT-29 cells by the MTT reduction assay and examining the morphological change under the inverted microscope. Among three extracts, the methanol extract showed the strongest inhibitory effect on the growth of HT-29 cells. The methanol extract was further fractionated sequentially with n-hexane, diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, and aqueous for purifying crude methanol extract. The n-hexane layer among the fractioned layers showed remarkable inhibitory activity on the growth of HT-29 cells. Moreover n-hexane layer showed the notable growth inhibition effects with a dose-dependent manner against SW620, HeLa, and MCF-7 cells as well as HT-29 cells. These results indicated that P. telfairiae extracts may be contained bioactive materials with inhibitory effect on the growth of human cancer cells.

The growth inhibitory effect of Microcystis aeruginosa according to the ultrasonic irradiation time was evaluated using a large algae sample volume (10 L) for various ultrasonic irradiation times (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3 hr) at a laboratory scale. Based on the analysis of Chl-a and cell number of M. aerginosa, algae growth inhibition was observed with the decrease in Chl-a and cell number in all experimental groups after the ultrasonic irradiation. For the experimental group (T_B, T_C, T_D) with an ultrasonic irradiation time of less than 2 hours, rapid regrowth of algae was observed after growth inhibition, but the experimental group (T_E, T_F, T_G) with an irradiation time of more than 2 hours successfully inhibited algal growth lasting one or two more days. Based on the comparison of the recovery time to initial cell number the experimental group (T_B, T_C, T_D) took less than 20 days whereas the experimental group (T_E, T_F, T_G) took about 30 days. Correspondingly, the experimental group showed a high first order decay rate (𝜅) in proportion to the ultrasonic irradiation time during the growth inhibition period. Additionally, the specific growth rates (𝜇) during regrowth in the experimental group with irradiation time of more than 2 hours were relatively low compared to those in the experimental group with less than 2 hours. Therefore, ultrasonic irradiation for more than 2 hours is required for long-term (30 days) inhibition of algal growth in stagnant waters. However, the appropriate ultrasonic irradiation time for algae growth inhibition should be determined according to various field conditions such as the volume of stagnant water, water depth, flow rate, algae concentration, etc. Finally, damages to the algal cell surface and cell membrane were clearly observed, and both destruction and disturbance of gas vesicles of M. aeruginosa in the experimental group were discovered, indicating the growth inhibitory effect of Microcystis aeruginosa according to the ultrasonic irradiation time was confirmed.
