Volatile flavor components from various edible portions of Capsella bursa-pastoris were collected by simultaneous steam distillation-extraction (SDE) method using diethyl ether as solvent. Essential oils were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Thirty four volatile flavor components, including 12 hydrocarbons, 2 aldehydes, 2 ketones, 5 alcohols, 1 ester, 10 acids and 2 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in whole samples. Thirty one components, including 11 hydrocarbons, 5 aldehydes, 4 ketones, 5 alcohols, 1 esters and 5 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in leaves. Twenty four components, including 5 hydrocarbons, 1 aldehyde, 2 ketones, 6 alcohols, 2 esters, 1 acid and 7 miscellaneous ones were confirmed in roots. The kinds and amounts of volatile flavor components revealed different patterns depending upon various edible portions. Relatively greater numbers of volatile flavor components were identified in leaves compared with roots of these wild plants. The characteristic aroma of Capsella bursa-pastoris appeared to be due to combination of C6 alcohol and acids, terpene alcohol and sulfur containing compounds.

An attempt was made to determine the effects of drying methods including shady air drying, presteamed and shady air drying, microwave drying, and freeze drying on the volatile flavor components of Capsella bursapastoris. Essential oils from the samples were isolated by Simultaneous steam distillation-extraction (SDE) method using diethyl ether as solvent. Concentrated samples were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Respective 30, 18, 29, and 26 volatile flavor components were identified in shady air dried samples, presteamed and shady air dried samples, microwave dried samples, and freeze dried samples. The kinds and amounts of volatile flavor components evidently depended upon the drying methods. Trimethyl sulfide was regarded as the most abundant component in shady air dried samples, dimethyl trisulfide in presteamed and shady air dried samples, and phytol in microwave or freeze dried samples.

Poly(olefin ketone) terpolymer having excellent mechanical properties was synthesized and composite materials of poly(olefin ketone) containing polyurethane/amino silane functionalized glass fibers were prepared. The compatibilities between the functionalized glass fiber and the polymer were characterized by observing the fracture surfaces of the composites using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Mechanical properties of composites with different contents, diameters, lengths, and binders of glass fibers were also studied using universal testing machine (UTM). The introduction of suitably functionalized glass fiber into the poly(olefin ketone) produces composite materials having excellent mechanical properties and they are very promising alternative materials for the engineering plastic applications.

The composition of rumen volatile fatty acids(VFA) and the blood chemistry were investigated in 5 clinically health dairy cows(Group I) reared on dairy farms and in 5 cows with post-parturition(POP) primary ketosis(Group II). The determinations were performed on days 5 to 7 pre-parturition(PRP), immediately POP, and on days 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 POP. In both groups, the total VFA levels gradually increased starting from day 5 POP, but the levels were lower in Group II than in Group I. With regard to POP. changes in the composition of VFA, Group II occasionally showed lower levels of acetic acid and caproic acid than did Group I. Blood glucose levels decreased POP in both groups. In contrast, blood levels of ketone bodies and 3-hydroxybutyric acid were increased POP, but there was no statistically by significant difference between the groups. The aspartate aminotransferase level was transiently increased immediately POP in both groups, and the increase was more marked in Group II than in Group I. Both groups showed a tendency for total cholesterol, free cholesterol, ester cholesterol, phospholipid, and total bile acid to be increased POP, but there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. Clinically healthy dairy cows also showed POP changes in the composition of VFA and blood similar to those in dairy cows with ketosis, suggesting that even apparently healthy cows are at risk of subclinical ketosis POP.

Purpose : Phenylketonuria(PKU) is an inborn error of metabolism and a genetic disorder resulting from a deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase(PAH) and decreased activity of tetrahydrobiopterin(BH4).In this study the correlation between the DNA mutation and clinical manifestations was investigated and PAH DNA mutations were compared bewteen Asian and Caucasian populations. Methods : DNA was isolated from peripheral leukocytes. The PAH gene was amplified by Polymerase Chain Reaction(PCR) and the sequence was analyzed with Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification(MLPA). Results : We characterized the PAH gene of 102 independent Korean patients with PKU. PAH nucleotide sequence analysis revealed 44 different mutations, including 10 novel mutations comprising 9 missense mutations(N207D, K95del, A447P, G344D, P69S, S391I, A202T, G103S, and I306L) and 1 novel splice-site variant mutation(IVS10-3C>G). R243Q was the most prevalent mutation in this study. A259T has not previously been reported in Asian populations, but we found that this mutation had a frequency of 10.1% in our study. Furthermore, the genotypes of $BH_4$ responsive patients were analyzed and were divided into two groups: $BH_4$ medication-only group and $BH_4$ medication with diet therapy group. In the $BH_4$ medication-only group and $BH_4$ medication with diet therapy group, R241C was the most common mutation. Conclusion : Novel mutations in the PAH gene of PKU patients are still being discovered. Additional information as to the frequency of mutations in the tetrahydrobiopterine responsive gene is also accumulating. We anticipate that knowledge of these PKU gene mutations will assist the diagnosis, genetic counseling, and therapeutic treatment of PKU patients in future.

The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, low-protein, low-carbohydrate diet developed in the 1920s for the treatment of difficult-to-control seizures. Despite advances in both the pharmacotherapy and the surgery of epilepsy, many children continue to have difficult-to-control seizures. In this situation, a ketogenic diet should be considered as an alternative therapy. However, less attention has been paid to associated adverse events in the ketogenic diet. We report a case of infantile spasm associated with acute renal failure, lipoid pneumonitis and kwashiorkor after ketogenic diet. A better understanding of this adverse event profile will allow the pediatric neurologist to have a true informed consent discussion with the care giver when considering initiation of the ketogenic diet.

The 7-keto-DHEA-acetate is converted to 7-keto-DHEA, a metabolite of DHEA, and similar to its metabolism. We studied the metabolite M3, M4, and M5 of 7-keto-DHEA-acetate. The estimated molecular weight of M3 and M4 was 304 which were supposed to have more 3 hydroxyl and/or ketone groups. We could know that M3 is the 7-OH-DHEA which has the hydroxyl groups on 3 and 7-carbon and a ketone group on 17-carbon. In case of M4, it is the 7-oxo-diol metabolite which has the hydroxyl groups on 3 and 17-carbon and a ketone group on 7-carbon. The M5 was supposed that the molecular weight is 320 and has the three hydroxyl groups on 3, 6, and 16 carbon and the ketone group on 17-carbon. After dosing, 7-OH-DHEA showed the maximum urine flow in human urine after 5 hr and decreased rapidly. But we could find it until 58 hr why is a higher remaining substance.
