The purpose of this study is to reduce the immune toxicity of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) by gamma irradiation. LPS was gamma-irradiated at the various doses of 20, 100 and 200 kGy and then evaluated on the immune toxicity through the cell proliferation, nitricoxide production and cytokine release. Cell proliferation significantly decreased in the intact LPS treated groups, whereas gamma-irradiated LPS treated group were not reduced the cell proliferation. Similarly, the production of nitric oxide and cytokine showed the high levels in the intact LPS treated group. However, gamma-irradiated LPS treated group remarkably decreased the production of nitric oxide and cytokine in dose-dependent manner. Therefore, gamma irradiation may effective method to reduce the immune toxicity of LPS.

In this study, we investigated to evaluate differential expression of genes encoding lipid transfer proteins (LTP) by acute and chronic gamma irradiation in rice. After acute and chronic gamma irradiation by 100 Gy and 400 Gy to rice plant, necrotic lesion was observed in the leaf blade and anthocyanin contents were increased. We isolated a total of 21 rice lipid transfer protein (LTP) genes in the TIGR database, and these genes were divided into four different groups on the basis of nucleotide sequences. The LTP genes also were classified as different four classes according to expression pattern using RT-PCR. Group A, B contained genes with increased expression and decreased expression in acute and chronic, respectively. Group C contained genes with contrasted expression pattern. Group D wasn't a regular pattern. But the specific affinity was not obtained between two grouping.

Cooking drips which were obtained as by-product after seafood processing in the food industries, still contain lots of proteins, carbohydrates, and other functional materials. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of gamma irradiation on the biological activities of seafood cooking drips. When the cooking drips of Hizikia fusiformis, Enteroctopus dofleini and Thunnus thynnus were irradiated, the antioxidant activities, whitening effect, and angiotensin I converting enzyme inhibition activity of the ethanol extract from seafood cooking drips were all increased by gamma irradiation. This was because of the increased extraction efficiency of available compounds by irradiation. These results suggested that the seafood cooking drips, wasted as by-products, can be used as functional compounds with gamma irradiation treatment.

This study was conducted with effect of lactic acid bacteria by gamma irradiation. Lactic acid bacteria were exposed to irradiation with a single absorbed dose of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 kGy. Possible lactic acid bacteria, including Lactobacillus paracasei KCTC 13169, Lactobacillus casei KCTC 3109, Lactobacillus acidophilus KCTC 3140, Lactobacillus plantarum subsp plantarum KCTC 3103, Lactobacillus debruekii subsp bulgaricus KCTC 3635, Streptococcus thermophilus KCTC 3658 were selected. The radiation sesitivities of lactic acid bacteria were expressed as $D_{10}$ values. The $D_{10}$ values of Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus casei, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus debruekii were calculated as 0.42, 0.51, 0.47, 0.90, 0.44, and 0.61 kGy, respectively. Results suggest that L. acidiphilus has the highly resistant to gamma irradiation.

The present study has been performed to compare the physiological analysis of monocot model plant (rice) in response to ionizing irradiations (cosmic-ray, gamma-ray, and Ion beam). Ionizing radiations were implanted into monocot model plant (rice) seed. After irradiation, the seeds were planted in the plastic pots for a growth period of one month. Thereafter, the morphological and physiological characteristics including malondealdehyde (MDA) and chlorophyll content, activities of antioxidant enzymes in irradiation samples were investigated. We are confirmed that the activity level of MDA and chlorophyll content were not changed by ionizing irradiation samples. However, the free radical contents were increased in all irradiated plants. And the activities of SOD, POD, and APX were significantly increased by irradiation compared with non-irradiation plant.
