사람의 신체내에서 주로 존재하는 lactate는 L-lactate로서 몇몇 선천성대사이상과 관련하여 증가된다. 최근 2형 당뇨병(type 2 diabetes)과 만성적인 염증성 위장질환(inflammatory bowel disease)과 관련하여 증가되는 D-lactate를 L-lactate와 분리해야 하는 요구도가 높아졌다. 이에 액체크로마토그래프-탠덤질량 분석기를 사용하여 소변 내 D-, L-lactate를 분리하는 방법을 확립하였으며, 분석시간과 정밀성, 정확성, 특이성 등에서 신뢰성 있는 방법임을 확인하였다.

This study evaluated the levels of D(-)-lactate and L(+)-lactate, and the ratio of D(-)-lactate to total lactate (D(-)-lactate + L(+)-lactate) of 15 lactic acid bacteria (LAB) using an enzymatic method. D(-)-lactate and L(+)-lactate levels in the LAB ranged from 0.31 to 13.9 mM and 0.76 to 39.3 mM, respectively, in Bifidobacterium sp.; 1.08 to 11.7 mM and 0.69-13.0 mM in Lactobacillus sp.; 0.72 to 20.3 mM and 0.98 to 32.3 mM in Leuconostoc sp., and 33.0 mM and 39.2 mM in Pediococcus acidilacti KCCM 11747. The ratio of the range of D(-)-lactic acid to total lactic acid was 28.98%-45.76% in Bifidobacterium sp., 41.18%-61.02% in Lactobacillus sp., 29.85%-42.36% in Leuconostoc sp., and 45.71% in P. acidilacti KCCM 11747. In the future, there is a need to test for D(-)-lactate in various fermented products to which different LAB have been added and study the screening of LAB used as probiotics that produce various concentrations of D(-)-lactate.

In batch cultures of Lactobacillus delbrueckii, cell growth and lactic acid production were affected by two main factors, inhibition by lactic acid and limitation by nutritional components. In order to increase th productivity significantly, a continuous stirred tank reactor with cell recycle was employed. A cell desnity of 145g dry weight/l and a volumetric productivity of 73 g/l$\cdot $h were obtained with an effluent concentration of 85 g/l lactic acid. The productivity achieved by this system was 23-fold higher than those obtained by the corresponding batch cultivations. Once the lactic acid concentration reached the steady steady state, lowering the yeast extract concentration caused the reduction of the lactic acid concentration without affection the biomass concentration. Finally, the formation of D-lactate was investgated. During the various cultures, a small amount of D-lactate always formed, even thought a majority of lactate was L-isomer, It was supposed that the relative amount of the D-lactate was affected by glucose limitation, and there seems to exist a certain relationship between the concentration of D-lactate and acetate.

The growth of Bifidobacterium breve strain HP2 was completely inhibited by the addition of lactate higher than 4.0％ but not by the addition of acetate. Two kinds of lactate-tolerant mutants were isolated by the nitrosoguanidine treatment, enrichment on a liquid medium with 5％ lactate, and selection on agar plates with 5％ lactate. The mutants were not only able to grow in the presence of 5％ lactate but also improved in viable cell stability in the acidic pH range. In a pH-controlled fermentor, mutant N-1-5 grew at a rate slower than that of the wild type but its growth yield was higher. Notably, mutants were more halotolerant and more osmotolerant than the wild type and they were able to grow in the presence of 3％ NaCl or 25％ lactose at which the wild type entirely stopped the growth. The enzyme activities involved in the lactose metabolism in B. breve were measured to elucidate the biochemical basis for lactate tolerance. In the mutants, activities of several enzymes including phosphoglucomutase decreased compared to the wild-type, which may explain their lower growth rate. However, the activity of lactate dehydrogenase or its nature of inhibition by lactate was not altered.

Lactic acid is an environmentally benign organic acid that could be used as a raw material for biodegradable plastics if it can be inexpensively produced by fermentation. Two genes (ldhL and ldhD) encoding the L-(+) and D-(-) lactate dehydrogenases (L-LDH and D-LDH) were cloned from Lactobacillus sp., RKY2, which is a lactic acid hyper-producing bacterium isolated from Kimchi. Open reading frames of ldhL for and ldhD for the L and D-LDH genes were 962 and 998 bp, respectively. Both the L(+)- and D(-)-LDH proteins showed the highest degree of homology with the L- and D-lactate dehydrogenase genes of Lactobacillus plantarum. The conserved residues in the catalytic activity and substrate binding of both LDHs were identified in both enzymes.

본 연구는 미생물 유래 lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)를 이용하여 반추위내에 lactate 축적을 예바하기 위한 기능성 검증을 목적으로 수행되었다. 미생물의 효소활성에 영향을 주는 많은 반추위내 요인들 중 대표적인 것들 즉, 온도, pH, 휘발성지방산(VFAs) 그리고 금속이온들이 Lactobacillus sp. FFy111-1의 LDH 효소활성에 미치는 영향과, 반추위액내 축적된 lactate에 대한 LDH 작용을 평가하였다. Lactobacillus sp. FFy111-1의 LDH는 각각 pH 7.5와 40$^{\circ}C$에서 가장 좋은 효소 활력을 보였다. 온도 안정성은 30$^{\circ}C$에서 가장 좋게 나타났으며 30${\sim}$50$^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서는 80% 이상의 활성을 유지하였다. 그리고 pH 안정성은 pH 7.0과 8.0에서 모두 가장 좋은 결과를 나타냈으며 pH 6.1과 6.5에서 64% 이상의 효소활성을 유지하였다. VFAs와 금속이온이 LDH에 미치는 영향을 측정하였을 때, VFAs 처리는 LDH 효소활성을 억제하였으나, NaCl과 $CuSO_4$를 제외한 금속 이온 처리에서는 LDH 효소활성이 증가되었다. 특히 2mM $BaCl_2$와 $MgSO_4$로 처리 하였을 때 가각 비처리 효소활성의 127과 124% 수준까지 효소활성이 증진되었다. 반추위액내 축적된 lactate에 대한 LDH 작용을 보기 위하여 Lactobacillus sp. FFy111-1의 효소를 산중독 반추위액에 처리하였을 때 lactate의 농도가 무처리 반추위액내 lactate 농도의 78% 수준으로 감소하였다(P<0.05). 이와 같은 lactate 감소는 LDH의 작용에 의해 나타난 현상으로 정제된 D,L-LDH를 첨가한 실험결과(34% lactate)에서 입증되었다(P<0.05). 이상의 연구 결과들을 고려하여 볼 때 미생물이 생성한 LDH는 반추위내 축적된 lactate를 감소시킬 수 있는 충분한 가능성을 갖고 있다고 사료된다. 또한 더 좋은 미생물의 발굴과 반추위 환경에서 LDH 활성을 높이기 위한 기술개발이 LDH 효소의 실제적 응용을 위하여 필수적이다.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the change in signal sensitivity over different acquisition start times and optimize the scanning window to provide the maximal signal sensitivity of [1-¹³C]pyruvate and its metabolic products, lactate and alanine, using spatially localized hyperpolarized 3D ¹³C magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI). Materials and Methods: We acquired 3D ¹³C MRSI data from the brain (n = 3), kidney (n = 3), and liver (n = 3) of rats using a 3T clinical scanner and a custom RF coil after the injection of hyperpolarized [1-¹³C]pyruvate. For each organ, we obtained three consecutive 3D ¹³C MRSI datasets with different acquisition start times per animal from a total of three animals. The mean signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) of pyruvate, lactate, and alanine were calculated and compared between different acquisition start times. Based on the SNRs of lactate and alanine, we identified the optimal acquisition start timing for each organ. Results: For the brain, the acquisition start time of 18 s provided the highest mean SNR of lactate. At 18 s, however, the lactate signal predominantly originated from not the brain, but the blood vessels; therefore, the acquisition start time of 22 s was recommended for 3D ¹³C MRSI of the rat brain. For the kidney, all three metabolites demonstrated the highest mean SNR at the acquisition start time of 32 s. Similarly, the acquisition start time of 22 s provided the highest SNRs for all three metabolites in the liver. Conclusion: In this study, the acquisition start timing was optimized in an attempt to maximize metabolic signals in hyperpolarized 3D ¹³C MRSI examination with [1-¹³C] pyruvate as a substrate. We investigated the changes in metabolic signal sensitivity in the brain, kidney, and liver of rats to establish the optimal acquisition start time for each organ. We expect the results from this study to be of help in future studies.

This study was conducted to develop calcium-fortified shank bone extract (SBE) and to determine the effect of adding calcium lactate on physico-chemical characteristics of SBE during cold storage. The following five experiment groups were used: Control (0%, no addition), T1 (0.05% calcium lactate), T2 (0.1% calcium lactate), T3 (0.5% calcium lactate), and T4 (1% calcium lactate). When the concentration of calcium lactate added to the SBE was increased, the pH, redness, and yellowness values were significantly reduced, whereas the salinity, sugar content, and turbidity of SBE were significantly increased. Sensory parameters such as aroma, flavor, and overall acceptability in the control, T1, and T2 had similar scores. The TBARS values of SBE was significantly increased when 1% of calcium lactate was added, and the VBN values of SBE with calcium lactate at day 7 were higher than that of control (p<0.05). However, the addition of calcium lactate showed an inhibition effect on the growth of total microbial counts in SBE until 4 d of storage. The calcium content of SBE was increased by the addition of calcium lactate in a dose-dependently manner. The proper addition level of calcium lactate in the SBE was determined to be 0.1%.

Fifty-four, mixed-sex, halothane-carrier crossbred (Yorkshire${\times}$Landrace) pigs with an average initial BW of $108.2{\pm}0.8$ kg were randomly allotted to one of three dietary treatments for 5 d before slaughter: i) a control corn-soybean meal finisher diet devoid of supplemental magnesium; ii) a diet supplemented with 1.5 g/kg of elemental Mg from magnesium acetate; and iii) a diet supplemented with 1.5 g/kg of elemental Mg from magnesium sulfate heptahydrate. Serum creatine kinase (CK), lactate and glucose were analyzed at slaughter. Muscles from longissimus (LM) were packaged and stored to simulate display storage for muscle lactate and glycogen determinations at 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4 d. Mg supplementation reduced (p<0.05) serum CK and lactate concentration, but had no effect (p>0.05) on serum glucose. Daily change of muscle lactate concentration linearly increased (p<0.01), while glucose concentration linearly decreased (p<0.05) as storage time increased in all treatments. However, dietary Mg acetate and Mg sulfate supplementation in pigs elevated (p<0.05) muscle glycogen and reduced (p<0.05) muscle lactate concentrations, especially during the first 2 d of display, compared with pigs fed the control diet. This study suggests that short-term feeding of magnesium acetate and magnesium sulfate to heterozygous carriers of the halothane gene has beneficial effects on stress response and pork quality by improving blood and muscle biochemical indexes.

실험실 규모의 반연속 흐름 2단 토양컬럼을 이용하여 사염화에틸렌(PCE)에서 에틸렌으로의 혐기성 환원 탈염소화 반응특성을 조사하였다. 국내의 TCE로 오염된 현장에서 토양을 채취하여 컬럼 반응조에 충진하고, lactate(전자공여체 그리고/혹은 탄소원으로서)와 PCE를 함유한 현장 지하수를 컬럼 반응조로 주입하였다. 운전초기 약 50일 경과기간 동안 유입 lactate와 PCE의 질량비는 620:1이었는데, 이때 PCE에서 cis-DCE로의 불완전한 환원성 탈염소화가 관찰되었다. 그러나 유입 lactate와 PCE의 질량비를 5,050:1로 증가시킨 두번째 운전기간동안 PCE에서 ethylene로의 완벽한 탈염소화를 관찰할 수 있었는데, 이는 초기 운전기간 동안의 적절한 전자공여체의 공급의 중요성을 보여 주었다. PCE에서 cis-DCE로의 탈염소화율은 $0.62{\sim}1.94\;{\mu}mol$ PCE/L pore volume/d이었고, cis-DCE에서 ethylene으로의 탈염소화율은 $2.76\;{\mu}mol$ cis-DCE/L pore volume/d으로 나타났다. 전체 시스템에서의 PCE에서 ethylene으로의 전환율은 $1.43\;{\mu}mol$ PCE/L pore volume/d이었다. 본 실험에서 PCE에서 cis-DCE로의 분해단계에서 수소의 농도는 $10{\sim}64\;mM$, 그리고 cis-DCE에서 에틸렌으로의 분해단계에서 수소의 농도는 $22{\sim}29\;mM$이었다. 본 연구에서의 이러한 긍정적인 실험 결과는 본 연구에서 조사된 TCE로 오염된 지하수의 현장 생물학적 복원을 위해 혐기성 환원 탈염소화 공정의 적용 가능성을 보여준다.
