In this study, we investigated the inhibitory effects of Baechu kimchi added Ecklonia cava on the activities of ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylase and its alleviating effect on the postprandial hyperglycemia in STZ-induced diabetic mice. Baechu kimchi added Ecklonia cava (BKE, 15%) was fermented at $5^{\circ}C$ for 28 days. Optimum ripened BKE was used in this study as it showedthe strongest inhibitory activities on ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylaseby fermentation time among the BKEs in our previous study. The BKE was extracted with 80% methanol and the extract solution was concentrated, and then used in this study. The BKE extract showed higher inhibitory activities than Baechu kimchi extract against ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylase. The $IC_{50}$ values of the BKE extract against ${\alpha}$-glucosidase and ${\alpha}$-amylase were 0.58 and 0.35 mg/mL, respectively; BKE exhibited a lower ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitory activity but a higher ${\alpha}$-amylase inhibitory activity than those of acarbose. The BKE extract alleviated postprandial hyperglycemia caused by starch loading in normal and streptozotocin- induced diabetic mice. Furthermore, the BKE extract significantly lowered the incremental area under the curve in both normal and diabetic mice (P<0.05). These results indicated that the BKE extract may delay carbohydrate digestion and thus glucose absorption.

In this study, a direct contact membrane module was manufactured to be used in a pilot scale membrane distillation process to treat $3m^3/day$ of the digestate produced from anaerobic digestion of livestock manure. In order to investigate the performance of the membrane module, permeate flux was measured with and without spacer inside the module under various condition of temperature difference and cross flow velocity (CFV) through the membrane surfaces. Flux recovery rate after chemical cleaning was also investigated by applying three different cleaning methods. Additionally, thermal energy consumption was theoretically simulated based on actual pilot plant operation conditions. As results, we observed flux of the module with spacer was almost similar to the theoretically predicted value because the installation of spacer reduced the channeling effect inside the module. Under the same operating condition, the permeate flux also increased with increasing temperature difference and CFV. As a result of chemical in-line cleaning using NaOCl and citric acid for the fouled membranes, the recovery rate was 83.7% compared to the initial flux when NaOCl was used alone, and 87% recovery rate was observed when only citric acid was used. However, in the case of using only citric acid, the permeate flux was decreased at a rapid rate. It seemed that a cleaning by NaOCl was more effective to recover the flux of membrane contaminated by the organic matter as compared to a cleaning by citric acid. The total heat energy consumption increased with increasing CFV and temperature difference across the membrane. Thus, further studies should be intensively conducted to obtain a high permeate flux while keeping the energy consumption to a minimum for a practical application of membrane distillation process to treat wastewater.

Obtaining a sufficient amount of healthy keratinocytes from a small tissue is difficult. However, ORS cells can be a good source of epithelium since they are easily obtainable and patients do not have to suffer from scar formation at donor sites. Accordingly, the current study modified the conventional primary culture technique to overcome the low propagation and easy aging of epithelial cells during culturing. In a conventional primary culture, the average yield of human ORS tells is 2.↑ $\times$ 10$^3$cells/follicle based on direct incubation in a trypsin (0.1%)/EDTA(0.02%) solution for 15 min at 37$^{\circ}C$, however, our modified method was able to obtain about 6.9 $\times$ 10$^3$cel1s/follicle using a two-step enzyme digestion method involving dispase (1.2 U/mL) and a trypsin (0.1%)/EDTA (0.02%) solution. Thus, the yield of primary cultured ORS cells could be increasd three times higher. Furthermore, a total of 2.0 $\times$ 10$^{7}$ cells was obtained in a serum-free medium. while a modified E-medium with mitomycin C-treated feeder tells produced a total of 6.3 $\times$ 10$^{7}$ Cel1s over 17 days When Starting With 7.5 $\times$ 10$^4$cells. Finally, We Confirmed the effectiveness of our ORS tell isolation method by presenting their ability for reconstructing the bioartificial skin epithelium in vitro

The short and variabke transit of drug throught GI tracj and the inter-and intra-subject variations of the transit restrict the sustained drug absorption after oral adminstration. These restrictions may be solved by retaining the dosage forms in the stomach. Then the dosage form will act as a platform which releases the drug slowly and makes the GI absorption occur for a long time. In this study, as the platforms, PVP hydrogels were synthesized by chemical and y-irradiation method in the cylindrical test tube. The chemical method means the synthesis of the hydrogel by heating the mixed solution of N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone [monomer], acrylated albumin [crosslinking agent], 2, 2'-agobis(2-methylpropionitrile) [initiator] and proxyphylline [drug] at $65^{\circ}C$ for 5 hr. The $\gamma$-irradiation method means the synthesis of the hydrogel by irradiation with $^{60}$ Co $\gamma$-ray of the mixed solution of the monomer, acrylated albumin, and flurbiprofen [drug] at room temperature with total 0.2 Mrad for 3 hr. Our intention is to design the hydrogel tablet (diameter : 1.20 cm, thickness : 0.60 cm) which swells in the gastric fluid after oral administration to such a size that passing through the pylorus could be inhibited during the period of drug release. After releasing drug, the hydrogel should be degraded by the enzymeatic digestion in the stomach, or by hydrolysis and eventually solubilized. Thus, in votro tests were performed to examine the factors that affect swelling and drug release from the PVP hydrogels. Experimental results show that the hydrogels swell to a size larger than the diameter of the pylorus(l.3$\pm$0.7 cm) and the hydrogel prepared by the chemical method is digested by pepsin. But the hydrogel prepared by the $\gamma$-irradiation method was not digested by the pepsin and just collapsed with time. Thus, the swelling of the hydrogel synthesized by $\gamma$-irradiation was independent albumin acrylation time and pepsin concentration. But drug content and radiation dose affected the swelling and drug release kinetics of the hydrogel. Drug release from the hydrigels was prolonged up to about 24 hr. Therefore, it was concluded that by adjusting these factors, the albumin-crosslinked PVP hydrogel synthesized by $\gamma$-irradiation method is expected to be retained in the stomach for up to 60hr and be a potential platform of drugs for long-term GI absorption.

This experiment was conducted to investigate available extraction capacity and potential mobility of heavy metal according to the distribution property and contamination level of heavy metals in soils and to suggest a reform measure of soil environment assessment methodology applied with soil quality and the official soil heavy metal test methods in domestic and foreign countries. The soils were collected from the natural forest paddy with long-term application of same type fertilizer, and paddies near metal mine and industrial complex. The post-treatment methods of soil were partial extraction, acid digestion and sequential extraction methods. For the heavy metal contents with different soil properties, it was shown that their natural forest and paddy soil were slightly low and similar to the general paddy soil, while their paddies near metal mine and industrial complex were higher than the standard level of Soil Environment Protection Act. Heavy metal concentrations in the soils with different soil properties had difference between $HNO_3\;and\;HNO_3+HCl$ extractant by US-EPA 3051a method. There were highly significant positive relationships in both two methods. It was appeared that the higher extractable concentration ratio with 0.1N-HCl to total heavy metal content with $HNO_3+HCl$ extractant the greater total heavy metal content. There were highly significant positive correlationship between total heavy metal content and extractable content with 0.1N-HCl. For extractable capacity of soil extractable solution compared to the total heavy metal content it was appeared that it extractable method with 0.1N-HCl was higher than those with EDTA and DTPA. In extractable ratio with 0.1N-HCl in the contaminated paddy soils near mine and industrial complex, it was shown that the lower soil pH, the higher total heavy metal content. The order of a potential mobility coefficient by distribution of heavy metal content with ie different typies in the soil was Cd>Ni>Zn>Cu>Pb. It could be known that contamination characteristics of heavy metals with different types of soils were affected by different heavy metal components, contamination degree and soil chemical properties, and heavy metal concentration with different extractable methods had great variations with adjacent environment. To be compared with assessment methodology of soil environment impact at domestic and foreign countries with our results, it might be considered that there was necessary to make a single analysis method based on total heavy metal content with environmental overloading concept because of various analysis methods for total heavy metal content and present analysis method with great variation according to soil environment. In spite of showing higher concentration of heavy metal with acidic digestion than the extractable method, it might be considered that there is need to be adjusted the national standard of soil heavy metal contamination.

BACKGROUND: Pinoxaden is the phenylpyrazoline herbicide developed by Syngenta Crop Protection, Inc. and marketed on 2006. The maximum residue levels for wheat and barley were set by import tolerance. Thus, Ministry of Food and Drug Safety (MFDS) official analytical method determining Pinoxaden residue was necessary in various food matrixes. Satisfaction of international guideline of CODEX (Codex Alimentarius Commission CAC/GL 40) and National Institute of Food and Drug Safety Evaluation-MFDS (2017) are additional pre-requirements for analytical method. In this study, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was investigated to analyze residue of Pinoxaden (M4), which is defined as pesticide residue in Korea, in foods. METHODS AND RESULTS: Pinoxaden (M4) was extracted followed by acid digestion (2hr reflux with 1N HCl) and pH adjusting (pH 4-5 with 3% ammonium solution). To remove oil, additional clean-up step with hexane saturated with acetonitrile was required to high oil contained sample before purification. HLB cartridge and nylon syringe filter were used for purification. Then, samples were analyzed by LC-MS/MS using reserve phase column C₁₈. Five agricultural group representative commodities (mandarin, potato, soybean, hulled rice, and red pepper) were used to verify the method in this study. The liner matrix-matched calibration curves were confirmed with coefficient of determination (r²) > 0.99 at calibration range 0.002-0.2 mg/kg. The limits of detection and quantitation were 0.004 and 0.01 mg/kg, respectively, which were suitable to apply Positive List System (PLS). Mean average accuracies of pinoxaden (M4) were shown to be 74.0-105.7%. The precision of pinoxaden and its metabolites were also shown less than 14.5% for all five samples. CONCLUSION: The method investigated in this study was suitable to CODEX (CAC/GL 40) and National Institute of Food and Drug Safety Evaluation-MFDS (2017) guideline for residue analysis. Thus, this method can be useful for determining the residue in various food matrixes in routine analysis.
