전통적인 면역억제제와 면역활동제인 녹용수용추출액(DAA)은 뼈의 재생에 있어서 중요한 역할을 한다고 여겨진다. 녹용약침이 비활성 연골세포의 분화를 야기시킬수 있는 지를 결정하기 위해, 융합된 세포 배양균을 녹용약침과 함께 24, 36, 48, 72, 120 시간동안 먼저 처리하였다. 이러한 처리후에 배양액을 10-10 ~ 10-8M 1,25-(OH)2D3를 포함하는 새로운 배양액으로 바꾸어 세포들을 추가로 24시간동안 배양했다. 앞선 연구에서 더 성숙된 활성연골세포가 이러한 Vit D3 대사산물에 반응한다는 것을 보여주었기 때문에 이러한 두 번째 처리를 선택하였다. 세포성숙에 있어서 녹용약침의 전처리 효과는 ALPase의 특이활동을 측정하는 것으로 확인하였다. 기질 단백질 합성의 변화는 35SO4 결합이 proteoglycan으로의 변화되는것과 collagen 합성을 측정함으로써 증명되었다. 비활성 연골세포가 녹용약침과 함께 120시간동안 전처리되고 다시 1,25-(OH)2D3를 추가한 처치에서 ALPase 특이활동과 collagen 합성이 농도 의존적으로 증가를 일으켰다. 그러나 proteoglycan의 생성에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 1,25-(OH)2D3와 함께 전처리 된 비활성 연골 세포는 어떠한 전처리도 받지 않았던 비활성 연골세포처럼 반응했다. 이러한 결과는 녹용약침이 직접적으로 비활성 연골 세포를 활성 연골세포로 성숙시키는데 관여한다는 것을 알려준다. 그러므로 녹용약침은 연골내 골화과정에서 연골세포의 성숙을 조절하는데 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다.

This study was conducted to isolate antilisterial strains of the Bifidobacterium isolates from the infant feces. The bifidobacteria were isolated anaerobically on BL agar and screened for their inhibitory activity on the MRS-cysteine medium against three foodborne pathogens: Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, and Staphylococcus aureus. Among the 52 bifidobacterial isolates, 5 strains(A24, Bl, B6, B10, and Bl2) were finally selected based on their stronger antilisterial activity against Listeria monocytogenes than other isolates tested. Morphologically, all the isolates were typically shown Y-and V-shaped under electron microscopic examination. Each isolate was primarily subjected to identification by a polymerase chain reaction(PCR) using a genus-specific primer designed for targeting the 16S rRNA gene sequence, and confirmed the primary identification data using an API-kit(Biomeriuex, France), commercially available product for identification based on biochemical and physiological traits. Of the isolates with antilisterial activity, strain A24 was finally confirmed as the Bifidobacterium longum A24.

Using a cation exchange resin of polystyrene-DVB copolymer as a carbon source for the production of activated carbon, the effects of operating parameters on the physical properties of activated carbon such as specific surface area and specific pore volume were experimentally studied. In carbonization process specific surface area and specific pore volume of carbonized product decreased with the increase of carbonization temperature and time. They were proportional to activation temperature and time up to the specific temperature and time in activation process. In carbonization process the increase of heating rate gave negative effect to the properties. The properties of activated product, on the contrary, increased with the heating rate in carbonization process. The properties of activated carbon manufactured with the resin exchanged with divalent cations were lower than those with raw resin.

Selection of oxygen-tolerant strains and elucidation of their oxygen tolerance mechanism were crucial for effective use of bifidobacteria. Oxygen-tolerant bifidobacteria were able to significantly remove environmental oxygen (oxygen removal activity) as compared to oxygen-sensitive strains. Most oxygen removal activity was inhibited by heat treatment and exposure to extreme pH (2.0) of bifidobacterial cell. NADH oxidase was major enzyme related to oxygen removal activity. Oxygen-tolerant bifidobacteria possessed high NADH peroxidase activity level to detoxify $H_2O_2$ formed from reaction of NADH oxidase. Addition of oxygen to anaerobic culture broth significantly increased activities of HADH oxidase and NADH peroxidase within 1hr and rapid increment of oxygen concentration was prevented. Results showed NADH oxidase and NADH peroxidase of oxygen-tolerant bifidobacteria played important roles in elimination of oxygen and oxygen metabolite $(H_2O_2)$.

본 연구에서는 kiwifruit 과육 속에 들어 있는 단백질분해효소의 gelatin분해활성을 조사하고 그 산업적 방안을 검토하였다. Kiwifruit 과육에서 3개의 단백질분해효소의 활성 밴드(PI, PII, PIII)가 관찰되었다. 단백질분해효소 PI은 220 kD, PII는 51 kD, PIII는 26 kD에 해당하는 것으로 추정할 수 있었다. 이들 단백질분해효소 PI, PII, PIII는 모두 pH 2.0~5.0 범위에서 높은 활성을 보였으며 pH 4.0에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 이들 단백질분해효소 PI, PII, PIII는 모두 cysteine proteinase 저해제인 E-64와 iodoacetate에 의해서 저해되었으며, cysteine proteinase를 촉진하는 DTT, cysteine 및 $\beta$-mercaptoethanol에 의해서 활성이 증가하였다. 그 중 단백질분해효소 PIII는 분자량과 효소의 특성으로 보아 actinidin (EC 3.4.22.14)과 동일한 것으로 판단되었다. 단백질분해효소 PI, PII, PIII는 모두 $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{2+}$과 $Mn^{2+}$에 의해 촉진되었으며, $Zn^{2+}$과 Hg$^{2+}$에 의해 완전히 저해되는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, Co$^{2+}$, Cu$^{2+}$, $Al^{3+}$ , Fe$^{3+}$ 등 금속이온의 영향은 다소 다르게 나타났다. Kiwifruit 과육의 단백질분해효소 PI, PII, PIII 중에서 PI과 PII는 온도가 증가함에 따라 활성이 점차 낮아졌으나 PIII는 비교적 안정한 것으로 조사되었다. 특히, PIII는 5$0^{\circ}C$ 이내의 범위에서 48시간 경과시에도 75% 이상의 활성을 보여 이 범위의 온도에서는 상당 시간 동안 안정한 것으로 나타났다. 단백질분해효소의 산업적 가치를 고려해 볼 때 우선적으로 넓은 기질특이성과 열안정성이 높아야 한다. Kiwifruit에서 추출한 단백질분해효소는 4$0^{\circ}C$ 전후에서 최대의 활성을 보이고, 고온에서도 상당 시간 비교적 안정한 특성을 보여 식품제조, 식육연화 등 식품산업 분야에서의 활용가능성이 높을 것으로 보이며, 나아가 단백질이 갖는 식품학적 기능성을 높이는 데에도 사용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In an effort to discover an antiviral substance against noroviruse (NV), which causes gastroenteritis illness world-wide, several plants including spices and herbs were evaluated for their antiviral activities against feline calicivirus (FCV) as a surrogate for NV. Among them, methanolic extract of green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) exhibited significant antiviral activity against FCV. After treatment with green tea extract (3.13 mg/ml) for 1 hr, FCV was completely inactivated. The antiviral activity of green tea extract against FCV was also determined to be dose and time- dependent. The results obtained in this study suggested that green tea will be effective in the prevention of food-borne diseases caused by NV.

Surfactant adsorption by two montmorillonite types with different interlayer cations of Ca and Na was characterized by examining the time dependence of surfactant behavior on the clay surfaces. Surfactants with different micelle concentration were conducted in our experiment to observe a nonequilibrium activity of cationic surfactant on the clay over reaction periods ranging from 0.1 min to 11 days. As compared with Ca-montmorillonite (SAz), a more active intrusion of surfactant molecules into the interlayers was found in Na-montmorillonite (SWy). During a short 'initiation' stage, the basal spacing of SWy montmorillonite increased rapidly with logarithmic time. For SAz montmorillonite, however, the abrupt basal spacing increase occurred at the later stage of the reaction. From the result, the difference in the adsorption behavior exhibited by the two montmorillonite types partly results from their intrinsic nature, that is, inorganic cations originally existing on the clay surfaces. Additionally, the micelle concentration of surfactants affects the development of organo-montmorillonite, especially, in the intercalant formation and stabilization under nonequilibrium.

The effect of bisphenol S (BPS) on the viability and production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was studied in boar sperm and ovarian granulosa cells. Boar semen was incubated in Beltsville thawing solution with either 0 or $5{\mu}M$ BPS for 3 and 6 h. The viability of sperm was analyzed by SYBR14/PI doubling staining, and production of ROS was detected. Ovarian granulosa cells were also treated with BPS for 24, 48, and 72 h. Then, cell viability (0, 5, 10, and $20{\mu}M$) and ROS production (only 0 and $5{\mu}M$ BPS) were assessed. The results showed that, BPS decreased sperm viability at 3 and 6 h, and that BPS increased ROS production (p<0.05). Also, BPS reduced the viability of ovarian granulosa cells (p<0.05), and stimulated ROS production (p<0.05). These results suggest that BPS damages sperm activation and ovarian granulosa cells in the reproductive system.

The effect of surfactant on the hydrolysis of used newspaper was investigated. The most suitable surfactant for the pretreatment stage was found to be NP-series surfactants among 9 kinds of non ionic surfactants. Process parameters such as surfactant concentration, mixing speed, pretreatment temperature and time were tested to optimize for maximum digestibility and 0.5%, 100rpm, 30$^{\circ}C$, and 1 h were found to be optimum, respectively. In order to maximize digestibility, substrate was pretreated with NP-20 and then the pretreated substrate was hydrolyzed by adding TW-80. The effect of surfactant on the hydrolysis of previously surfactant-pretreated newspaper was marginal. Therefore, the digestibility with the addition order of enzyme and surfactant was investigated by using surfactant only in hydrolysis stage. The results show that digestibility was more lowered as the surfactant addition after adding enzyme to substrate was more delayed.
