Prevalence of childhood obesity is increasing significantly worldwide due to energy imbalance perhaps stemming from undesirable dietary behavior and physical activity level. The objective of the study was to examine the effects of physical activity level on nutritional status in elementary school students. The subjects were comprised of 287 elementary school students between 4th and 6th grades in Seoul, Korea. The level of physical activity was scored with a modified Godin leisure-time exercise questionnaire and was categorized as active, moderately active, and sedentary. Dietary intakes were obtained using a 24-hour food recall method. An analysis of variance (ANOVA) was conducted to test for global significant differences of nutrient intakes by physical activity level. Boys were more active than girls. Daily intakes of energy in moderately active boys were significantly higher than in the sedentary group, but intakes of calcium and iron in moderately active boys were lower than active boys. For girls, physical activity level did not affect nutrient density at all. Intakes of calcium, vitamin C, and folate for both boys and girls were below 50% of recommended intake. Physical activity did not affect nutrient density and our participants were exposed to nutritional imbalance. Therefore, the results suggest that nutrition education regarding balanced diet and optimum physical activity is required for children's health and growth.

Acne vulgaris, the most common skin disease. can be formed as only a few comedons or severe inflammatory lesions. The pathogenesis of acne involves various factors; excessive androgen, excessive sebum production, abnormal alteration of follicular epithelium, proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes, and inflammation. We investigated acne therapy using oriental herbs described in the Korean traditional medical book(Dong-ui-bo-gam). Oriental herbs(Angelica daurica, Arctium lappa, Coptidis rhizoma, and Glycyrrhiza glabra) were chosen based on their respective property of sebum control, anti-inflammatory activity, and anti-bacterial activity. We examined the effect of acne treatment, in terms of chemotactic inhibition, lipogenesis inhibition, and anti-bacterial activity for P. acnes. 1. Neutrophil chemotaxis assay; P. acnes secrete chemotactic factors and other pro-inflammatory extracellular products. Neutrophil chemotactic activity of P. acnes was measured by 48-well chemotaxis method. Angelica daurica clearly suppressed chemotactic activity of P. acnes. 2. Using sebaceous gland of hamster ear lipogenesis assay; Sebaceous lipogenesis was measured using ear biopsies by incubation or $C^{14}$-acetate in culture media. The $C^{14}$-labeled lipids were extracted and determined by liquid scintilation counting. Coptidis rhizoma markedly inhibited sebum production. 3. Anti-bacterial assay for P. acnes(MIC test); Glycyrrhiza glabra showed anti-bacterial activity. P. acnes did not develop resistance against Glycyrrhiza glabra. Retinoids are effectively to inhibit sebum production and regulate follicular keratinization process, with little anti-inflammatory activity. Angelica daurica suppressed neutrophil chemotaxis, Coptidis rhizoma inhibited sebum production, and Glycyrrhiza glabra showed anti-bacterial activity against P. acnes. A combined formulation of Angelica daurica, Coptidis rhizoma. and Glycyrrhiza glabra is expected to provide effective acne treatment.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of instrumental-activity of daily living program on a patient with subacute stroke in the view of self-efficiency, motivation for rehabilitation, social support. Methods : Eight stroke patients who attended instrumental-activity of daily living program at P hospital in Busan Metropolitan City from march 2018 to January 2019 were recruited. Instrumental-activity of daily living program was offered to 8 stroke patients 1 session (at least 1 hours) a day, 5 times a week, for 4~5 weeks. The instrumental-activity of daily living program was based on occupational therapy practice framework (OTPF) and international classification of functioning, disability and health (ICF). We evaluated self-efficacy, rehabilitation motivation, social support before and after intervention. Self-efficacy was evaluated using the general self-efficacy scale. The collected data was processed using SPSS 20.0 and were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Wilcoxon signed rank test, Pearson's correlation coefficient. Results : There were statistically significant differences in self-efficiency, rehabilitation motivation, social support between before and after instrumental-activity of daily living program (p<.05). Examining the correlation between the self-efficiency, rehabilitation motivation and social support of the stroke patient, there was a correlation between the self-efficiency and social support (p<.05). Conclusion : This study showed that the instrumental-activity of daily living program have positive effects on self-efficacy, rehabilitation motivation, social support. When considering the instrumental-activity of daily living program with improved self-efficacy, rehabilitation motivation, social support of the participants, we suggest that further studies will be needed to examine more extensive instrumental-activity of daily living and rehabilitation to the society with a larger sample size.

대전광역시 근교의 야산과 들판 등지에서 썩은 나뭇잎, 짚, 흙을 채취하여 각각을 배양한 다음 Congo red test에 의해 cellulase 활성을 보이는 균주를 선별하였다. Genomic DNA를 분리한 후 PCR을 수행하여 DNA sequence를 Gene Bank를 통해 분석한 결과 A. tubingensis로 밝혀졌다. 이것을 배양하여 상등액을 crude enzyme으로 사용하여 온도와 pH를 달리하면서 효소의 활성정도를 측정하였다. 대조균주로 A. oryzae KCTC 6291를 이용하였고, 본 연구를 통하여 분리한 균주인 A. tubingensis가 생산하는 cellulase는 A. oryzae의 cellulase에 비하여 각각 다른 온도와 pH에서 높은 안정성을 보여주었다. A. tubingensis는 각각의 온도에서 활성의 정도가 비슷했으며, 45$^{\circ}C$, 55$^{\circ}C$에서 높은 활성을 나타내고 있지만, 고르게 활성이 나타났다. 또한 pH 12.0에서 가장 높은 활성을 보여 주었고, pH 2.0, 3.0, 4.0에서는 양쪽 모두 거의 활성이 없었으며, 중성, 염기성에 대해서 활성에는 큰 변화가 없었다. 따라서, 분리 동정한 A. tubingensis는 온도와 pH에서 고르게 활성을 나타내므로 생균제로 활용할 수 있는 범위가 클 것으로 여겨진다.

Six kinds of spirulina added dressing $(0\~1.09\%)$ were prepared and their rheological, physical and sensory characteristics were evaluated The hardness and adhesiveness of spirulina-added salad dressing were increased with the added amounts of spirulina. Viscosity of spirulina-added salad dressing was not significantly different up to $0.28\%$ whereas that of dressing added more than $0.55\%$ spirulina significantly increased, compared with that without spirulina. Emulsion stability of all of spirulina-added salad dressings was $40\%$ Antioxidant activities of spirulina-added salad dressing increased with spirulina increased: $IC_{50}$ values of DPPH radical scavenging activity and lipid peroxidation inhibition activity of $0.28\%$ added-dressing were 104.98 mg/mL and $6.71{\mu}g/mL$ of TBARS, respectively, which were higher than those of mayonnaise. The fat globule size of $0.28\%$ spirulina-added salad dressing was distributed within $0.5\~4.0{\mu}m$, of which $85.6\%$ of total fat globules were consisted of the size of less than $1.5\{\mu}m$. Total microbial number of salad dressing was 6.2log(CFU/mL), but E coli was not detected Sensory preference test of spirulina-added salad dressing showed that scores of appearance, flavor, viscosity and over-all preference for $0.28\%$ added-dressing were the highest with 7.83, 7.50, 5.33 and 7.97, respectively. Based on these results, spirulina-added salad dressing might have heath promoting effect showing antioxidant activity, and the most appropriate concentration of spirulina for salad dressing was $0.28\%$.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of metabolites produced form Streptomyces rimosus in controlling the growth of sapwood - inhabiting fungi. In order to carry out this task, the following specific fungi were tested : sapstain fungi - Ceratocystis pilifera, Ceratocystis piceae, and Aureobasidium pullulans ; mold fungi - Trichoderma hazianum, Trichoderma viride, Penicillium cirtrinum, and Aspergillus niger. Based on the tests, the following observations can be drawn. 1. The conidial germination of sapstain and mold fungi was completely inhibited leaving a clear zone around the paper disc treated with metabolites. The best inhibition was observed in A. pullulans plate and the least in T. viride. 2. Concentration of SB medium for the production of metabolites from St, rimosus affected antifungal activity of metabolites against sapwood - inhabiting fungi. Metabolites prepared from 1/3${\times}$SB medium showed the best activity and the least activity was observed in metabolites form 1/4${\times}$medium. 3. in vivo and in vitro test using wood blocks, treatment of pine sapwood blocks with metabolites also inhibited conidial germination and thus prevented discoloration. 4. Treatment with metabolites did not change the macroscopic structure of wood and did not cause the discoloration of the surface of wood by pigments produced form St. rimosus. In conclusion the results of this study indicate that antifungal metabloites of St, rimosus could be used for the biological control of sapstain and mold fungi.

The present study aimed to determine the possible mechanisms of the peripheral antinociception of the aqueous extracts of Dicranopteris linearis (AEDL), Melastoma malabathricum (AEMM) and Bauhinia purpurea (AEBP) leaves in mice. Briefly, the antinociceptive profile of each extract (300, 500, and 1000 mg/kg; subcutaneous (s.c.)), was established using the abdominal constriction test. A single dose (500 mg/kg) of each extract (s.c.) was pre-challenged for 10 min with various pain receptors' antagonists or pain mediators' blockers and 30 min later subjected to the antinociceptive assay to determine the possible mechanism(s) involved. Based on the results obtained, all extracts exerted significant (p < 0.05) antinociceptive activity with dose-dependent activity observed only with the AEMM. Furthermore, the antinociception of AEDL was attenuated by naloxone, atropine, yohimbine and theophylline; AEMM was reversed by yohimbine, theophylline, thioperamide, pindolol, reserpine, and 4-chloro-DL-phenylalanine methyl ester hydrochloride; and of AEBP was inhibited by naloxone, haloperidol, yohimbine and reserpine. In conclusion, the antinociceptive activity of those extracts possibly involved the activation of several pain receptors (i.e. opioids, muscarinic, ${\alpha}_2$-adrenergic and adenosine receptors, adenosine, H3-histaminergic and $5HT_{1A}$, dopaminergic receptors).
