  • The personalized meal service is being developed to prevent and alleviate illnesses according to the individual's health condition. However, the current meal does not provide a fully customized service to individuals and a diet that meets the consumer's information needs. The cause is the lack of information on the ingredients and the difficulty of comparative analysis between the materials. Therefore, in this study, we propose basic analysis process for basic information acquisition and database construction for food composition before providing personalized food. In this study, we investigated the content of carbohydrate, reducing sugar and protein as basic components of Grifola frondosa and investigate the content of polyphenol as a biological active ingredients. Respectively. Studies on the hypoglycemic effect of the diabetic rat model have been carried out in relation to the prevention of diseases. Based on the results of this study, it is also possible to obtain information on the basic ingredients of the food and to analyze the information on the content and activity of the biological active ingredients. Using animal models, information on disease prevention and mitigation was also available. The process introduced in this study is applied to various food materials, accumulating data, and utilizing Database, this results will be an excellent tool for providing more efficient service by providing a proper dietary composition for consumers.

  • 웹을 통한 생물 데이터 접근 방식은 많은 과학자들에게 대화식으로 서로 다른 형식의 생물 데이터베이스 내용을 검색할 뿐만 아니라, 한 데이터베이스에서 다른 분자생물 데이터베이스로의 연결을 위한 강력한 도구를 제공한다. 본 논문에서의 생물 개념 모델은 생물 데이터 제어를 위한 4가지 통합 레이어를 기반으로 각 생물 데이터 소스 간의 연관성에 따른 규칙 속성을 적용하고 데이터 소스 중에 관심 대상이 되는 개체를 표현하여 하이브리드 생물 데이터 모델을 구성하였다. 특정 사용자의 응용 서비스 요구가 발생하면 해당 생물 데이터베이스와 웹 서비스를 통한 데이터 소스로부터 정보를 획득한다. 본 논문에서는 통합 레이어를 기반으로 웹 데이터 소스 상에서 정보를 탐색하기 위해 메타 규칙을 적용한 질의어 처리 모형과 수행구조를 정형화하였다.

  • A recent report of the Korean Intellectual Property Office(KIPO) showed that the number of biological sequence-based patents is rapidly increasing in Korea. We present biological features of Korean patented sequences though bioinformatic analysis. The analysis is divided into two steps. The first is an annotation step in which the patented sequences were annotated with the Reference Sequence (RefSeq) database. The second is an association step in which the patented sequences were linked to genes, diseases, pathway, and biological functions. We used Entrez Gene, Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), and Gene Ontology (GO) databases. Through the association analysis, we found that nearly 2.6% of human genes were associated with Korean patenting, compared to 20% of human genes in the U.S. patent. The association between the biological functions and the patented sequences indicated that genes whose products act as hormones on defense responses in the extra-cellular environments were the most highly targeted for patenting. The analysis data are available at http://www.patome.net

  • A scientific name is one of changeable terms in biology whenever additional research results of specific taxa is accumulated. The Database of the National Species List of Korea (DBNKo) was developed to manage taxonomic information of Korean species, designed to describe the changeable and complex taxonomical structure and information. A Korean Taxonomical Serial Number (KTSN) was assigned to each taxon, different from the normally used systems that the scientific name was considered as primary key to manage higher rank of taxa systematically. Common names were also treated with the KTSN, reflecting that common name is considered as one type of taxon. Additional taxonomic information (e.g., synonyms, original names, and references) was also added to the database. A web interface with an intuitive dashboard presenting taxonomic hierarchical structure is provided to experts and/or managers of the DBNKo. Currently, several biological databases are available in the National Institute of Biological Resources (NIBR) such as a specimen database, a digital library, a genetic information system, and the shared species data based on the DBNKo. The DBNKo started sharing species information with other institutions such as the Nakdonggang National Institute of Biological Resources. It is an ideal centralized species database to manage standardized information of Korean species.

  • Triclosan (TCS) is an antimicrobial agent used in various human personal care products against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the presence of TCS-resistant bacteria in sewage water in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK), Pakistan, for the first time. TCS-supplemented Luria Bertani (LB) agar was used to isolate TCS-tolerant bacteria. A total of 17 TCS-resistant isolates were randomly selected from a large pool of bacteria that showed growth on TCS-supplemented LB agar. Based on gram staining and physiochemical characteristics, the isolated strains were identified as Salmonella typhi (n = 6), Escherichia coli (n = 4), Citrobacter freundii (n = 4), Proteus mirabilis (n = 1), Enterobacter cloacae (n = 1), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (n = 1). The Triclosan mean minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for the isolates of Salmonella typhi, Escherichia coli, Citrobacter freundii, Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter cloacae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 23.66 ㎍ ml-1, 18.75 ㎍ ml-1, 42 ㎍ ml-1, 32 ㎍ ml-1, 64 ㎍ ml-1, and 128 ㎍ ml-1, respectively. The antibiogram revealed that all isolates were resistant to penicillin G (100%) and linezolid (100%), followed by ampicillin (94%), tetracycline (76%), tazobactam (76%), sulbactam/cefoperazone (64%), polymyxin PB (58%), amikacin (29.41%), aztreonam (29.41%), imipenem (5%), and gentamicin (5%). This is the first known study regarding the isolation of TCS-tolerant bacteria from sewage water in Peshawar, KPK, Pakistan. It was concluded that all the TCS-resistant isolates were multidrug resistant (MDR) gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria, mostly belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae family.

  • In this paper, we analyze the current phenomenon of child abuse crimes based on the information gathered by the National Child Protection Agency. The purpose of this paper is to diagnose the seriousness of child abuse by biological parents based on the analyzed information and propose measures against it. Comprehensive and integrated measures are needed for child abuse committed by biological parents due to abuse concealment, continuity of damage, and inactive national intervention by considering punishment on attackers through national intervention, fundamental in-depth psychological counseling, therapeutic care, promoting recovery of victims, and ultimately continuous and regular management and monitoring as a long-terms measure. To do so, developing customized and individual educational programs and make them obligations can be first presented to identify child abuse in advance and build up preventive systems based on the principle of family preservation. In addition, problems should be addressed at a fundamental level by performing various and active therapeutic treatments such as psychological treatment, mental treatment, or drug treatment gradually and through phases for biological parents who commit child abuse and contributing to recovering the relationship. Furthermore, proper protection and treatment service should be provided to children victimized by abuse by extending professional children care facilities and adopting the professional family commission system as measures by separating family.

  • The main mechanism of evolution is that biological entities change, are selected, and reproduce. We propose a different concept in terms of the main agent or atom of evolution: in the biological world, not an individual object, but its interactive network is the fundamental unit of evolution. The interaction network is composed of interaction pairs of information objects that have order information. This indicates a paradigm shift from 3D biological objects to an abstract network of information entities as the primary agent of evolution. It forces us to change our views about how organisms evolve and therefore the methods we use to analyze evolution.
