An extracellular protease of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens S94 was purified to apparent homogeneity. The enzyme activity was strongly inhibited by general inhibitor for serine protease, PMSF, suggesting that the enzyme is a serine protease. The purified enzyme activity was inhibited by leucine peptidase inhibitor, bestatin, suggesting that the enzyme is a leucine endopeptidase. When the enzyme was chemically modified with PMSF, which specifically reacted with serine residue on the enzyme, the activity was eliminated. The endopeptidase activity was inhibited by the modifier which chemically modified carboxyl group of aspartate and glutamate. PLP, which would modify lysine residue, did not affect the endopepetidase activity to a greater extent. This demonstrates that serine and aspartate (or glutamate) residues of enzyme would participate in a important function of the endopeptidase activity.

The importance of palliative care for terminal cancer patients has been emphasized globally. Korea has formulated and implemented its policy for cancer control as it drew up a 10-year plan for cancer patient care. We examined Korea's National Cancer Act and the second 10-year plan for cancer patient care, which are legal grounds for palliative care projects for terminal cancer patients, to check the current status of Korea's efforts to establish a hospice and palliative care system. Institutionalization of hospice and palliative care has been developed within a framework of the national cancer project. Efforts such as expansion of hospice units, experts training and quality improvement should continue after the reimbursement of hospice and palliative care begins in 2013.

Separation of fructose and glucose was performed using emulsion liquid membranes with a mixture of an organoboronic acid and a quaternary ammonium salt as a carrier in a batch reactor. In order to find a carrier and an optimal experimental condition suitable to the sugar separation, extraction of each sugar was carried out independently. The effect of various experimental variables, such as initial concentration of sugar in the feed phase, type of organoboronic acids, and w/o ratio, on the sugar separation was investigated, and the concentrations of sugars in each aqueous phase were analyzed. The ratio of degree of extraction of fructose to that of glucose was very high, but the concentration of fructose in the receiving phase was not too high. Therefore, a stronger stripping agent in the receiving phase was required for development of a practical ELM system suitable to the sugar separation.

쌀의 연간 생산량은 재배기술의 발달과 더블어 500만톤 이상을 꾸준히 유지해 오고 있는 반면에 식생활패턴은 점차 인스턴트화 되고 육류소비가 증가함으로써 1인당 소비량이 1990년 119.6kg에서 2002 년 87.0kg으로 급격히 감소하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 이러한 현상은 재고누적으로 이어져 2002년말 기준으로 1,190만석의 재고가 발생되고 있으며, 더욱이 WTO체제하에서 쌀시장 개방압력이 강화되고 있는 실정으로 앞으로 재고문제는 더욱 심화될 것으로 전망되고 있다. 이렇게 쌀이 남아도는 현실에서 국내 유통미의 품위는 싸라기 및 분상질립, 피해립, 이물 등 불완전립의 비율이 매우 높아 일본산이나 미국산에 비해 품질이 현저히 떨어지고 있어 고품질 가공을 통한 차별화가 시급히 요청되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 최근 고품질 쌀 가공을 위해 설치 운영되고 있는 완전미 가공시설을 중심으로 완전미 가공기계장치의 구성 실태 및 제품의 품위 등을 조사분석하여 완전미 가공 기계장치의 개량요인을 도출하고, 이를 토대로 기계장치를 보완하기 위한 기초자료를 얻고자 하였으며, 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 현재 보급되어 있는 완전미 가공시설의 구성형태는 기존 미곡가공시설에 홈선별기를 1대를 추가 설치한 제 I유형, 색채선별기1대 + 홈선별기 1대를 추가설치한 제II유형, 색채선별기 1대+입선별기 (개조) 1대를 추가한 제III유형으로 크게 나누어지고 있다. 이들 시설의 도정능력은 백미 가공시에는 I, II, III유형에서 각각 24.0, 27.7, 24.0톤으로 높았던 반면에 완전미 가공시에는 각각 3.1, 5,3, 4.5톤으로 처리능력이 크게 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 가공수율면에서는 일반백미로 가공시 72.0% 수준이었으나 완전미로 가공시에는 64.3%로 7.7%의 수율 감소를 가져왔지만 완전립률이 일반백미로 가공시 I, II, III유형에서 각각 89.08, 91.57, 88.00% 에서 완전미로 가공시에는 각각 98.02, 98.43, 97.78% 높아져 품질이 크게 향상되었다. 따라서 완전미 가공시설을 도입할 경우 쌀의 외관품질을 크게 높일수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또 현재의 완전미 가공시설에 있어서 개량이 필요한 부분은 미숙립 등을 효율적으로 제거해 가공효율을 높이기 위해서는 입선별기의 개량이 요구되었으며, 홈선별기의 경우에는 선별정도는 문제가 없었으나 처리능력의 향상이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 완전미 가공효율을 높이기 위한 선별기 개량연구를 계속 수행중에 있다.

참취(Aster scaber)는 국화과에 속하는 여러해살이식물로 취나물로 분류되어 전국에서 재배되고 있으며 주로 남부지역에서 조기재배 작형으로 많이 재배하고 있다. 참취의 잎과 줄기는 맛과 향기가 독특하여 예로부터 생채, 묵나물 등으로 이용되어 왔으며 칼슘, 철분, 비타민 A 등이 풍부하여 건강식품으로서도 가치가 높고 한약재로도 사용되기도 한다. 최근에는 항암효과와 더불어 콜레스트롤을 저하시키는 약리적 효능이 있는 것으로 밝혀져 기능성 식품으로도 각광 받고 있다. 참취 시설재배 시 통상 3년 마다 갱신이 이루어지고 있는데 그 이유로는 시설재배지 특성상 양분의 과다투입에 의한 염류집적과 잦은 관수로 물리성이 악화되어 참취의 생육이 저하되어 수량이 감소하는 결과를 초래한다. 본 연구는 토양개량제 처리에 따른 참취의 생육과 토양 물리화학성에 미치는 영향을 검토하여 참취 시설재배 농가에 활용할 수 있는 방안을 개발하고자 시험을 수행하였다. 2018년 4월부터 2019년 9월까지 전라북도 농업기술원 허브산채시험장에서 참취 시설재배를 대상으로 하고 무처리, 볏짚 1,000 kg/10 a, 왕겨 숯 1,000 kg/10 a, 야자섬유 1,000 kg/10 a, 4처리구로 하여 시기별 생육 및 토양특성을 조사하였다. 수확기 참취 생육특성은 초장은 25.6~27.2 cm, 엽장은 8.5~9.7 cm, 엽폭은 6.3~7.0 cm, 경직경은 4.3~4.6 cm, 및 수량은 $3.3{\sim}4.0kg/3.3m^2$으로 볏짚 처리구에서 대조구에 비해 좋은 생육 상황을 보였으며 수량성 또한 많았다. 시험 후 토양화학적 특성을 조사한 결과 토양 pH는 7.4~7.5, 토양유기물 함량은 34~36 g/kg, 유효인산 함량은 386~415 mg/kg 이었으며 처리 전 토양에 비하여 유기물 함량은 증가하고 유효인산은 낮아지는 경향을 보였다. 치환성 양이온 K, Ca, Mg는 K는 $0.8{\sim}1.0cmol_c/kg$로 낮아졌고, Ca와 $8.9{\sim}10.1cmol_c/kg$, Mg는 $3.1{\sim}3.4cmol_c/kg$로 증가하였다. 토양물리성의 변화는 왕겨숯 시용에서 대조구에 비해 가장 낮은 용적밀도 $1.22g/cm^3$와 가장 높은 공극률 54.09%을 보였다. 토양 삼상은 고상은 볏짚에서 51.98%로, 액상은 야자섬유에서 28.64%로, 기상은 왕겨숯에서 29.35%로 가장 높았다. 참취 시설재배지 토양개량제 시용함으로써 토양의 유기물함량 증가와 토양의 용적밀도 감소와 토양양 공극율 증가 등 토양의 물리 화학성을 개선할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 본 연구는 2년차 시험 결과로서 3년차에 재검토할 계획이다.

In this study, crosslinked copolyimides with random (r-) and block (b-) structure were fabricated using N,N-bis(2-hydroxyethyl)-2-aminoethanesulfonic acid and pentanediol as crosslinkers. Linear r- and b-sulfonated copolyimides were also fabricated for comparison. Ion exchange capacities of r- and b-copolyimides were very similar to each other owing to their strong dependence of sulfonic acid content. The physical crosslinking via dimerization of carboxylic acid groups induced a reduced average interchain distance in b-copolyimide without crosslinkers. Consequently, its water uptake and methanol permeability were lower than those of r-sulfonated copolyimides. Simultaneously, the reduced interchain distance increased the content of fixed-charged ions per unit volume. The high fixed-charged ion density contributed to an enhancement of proton conductivity In the b-sulfonated copolyimide. Crosslinking caused the reduction of average interchain distance between polymer chains irrespective of types of crosslinker and polymer structure, leading to low methanol permeability. On the contrary, their proton conductivity was improved owing to formation of effective hydrophilic channels responsible for proton conduction. In particular, this trend was observed in r-copolyimide containing a fixed charged ion.

Cellulose grafted with acrylic acid(AAc) was prepared by radiation grafting technique. The effects of reaction temperature. reaction time, monomer concentration, and the crosslinkers on the AAc grafting reaction on cellulose were examined. The amount of AAc grafted on the cellulose reached maximum at the concentration of 0.75vol% difunctional crosslinker and 1.0vol% trifunctional crosslinker, respectively. In the presence of acid, the amount of AAc grafted on the cellulose was decreased when reaction solution contains difunctional crosslinker, while that was increased when reaction solution contains trifunctional crosslinker. In the grafting reaction of cellulose with AAc and TMETA, mixture containing ferrous sulfate and acid enhanced further AAc grafting yield than mixture containing ferrous sulfate only.
