This study was designed to investigate the effects of methionine(Met) on the activities of heart lipid peroxidation related enzymes in ethanol administrated rats. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were fed on diets containing one of the three levels of Met(0%, 0.3%, 0.9% of kg diet) and ethanol(2.5g/kg of body weight) was administrated as 25v/v% ethanol to ethanol treated groups orally. The rats were sacrificed after 5 and 10 weeks of feeding. Xanthine oxidase(XO) and catalase activities increased with ethanol administration and those activities were higher n Met excessive and deficiency group than those of Met normal group at 5 and 10 weeks dieting. Superoxide dismutase(SOD) activity in heart decreased significantly in Met deficiency and Met excessive group as compared to that of control. Glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px) activity in heart significantly decreased in Met deficiency group as compared to that of Met excessive and normal group. Glutathione S-transferase(GST) activity of heart tissue significantly increased by ethanol administration. Glutathione(GSH) content in heart decreased with ethanol administration and shwoed no significant differences with Met levels. Ethanol administration increased the content of lipid peroxide(LPO).

본 연구에서는 자석으로 분리가 가능한 polyaniline nanofiber (PAMP)를 개발하여 선택적인 에탄올 흡착 및 탈착공정을 활용하여 에탄올을 농축하였다. 개발된 PAMP는 용액 중에 있는 에탄올을 80%이상 흡착하였다. 자석을 활용하여 PAMP에 흡착된 에탄올의 회수가 가능하였으며, 물리적인 힘을 통하여 에탄올 탈착이 가능하여 에탄올의 회수가 용이하였다. 본 연구에 개발된 PAMP는 지속적인 재활용이 가능하였다. 본 연구에서 PAMP를 10회 반복 사용하였을 때 PAMP의 에탄올 흡착율은 최초 사용한 경우의 92%를 유지하여 PAMP를 지속적으로 활용할 수 가능성을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 PAMP를 사용하여 46 g/L의 저농도 에탄올을 197.6 g/L의 고농도 에탄올로 농축이 가능하였다.

Alcohol intake is known to affect various organs in the human body, causing reduction of salivation in the oral cavity. Hypo-salivation effect of alcohol is a common feature, but the mechanism in salivary glands is still poorly studied. Therefore, in this study, the changes in salivary secretion and water channel protein (aquaporin5, AQP5) in salivary glands of mice were investigated after ethanol administration. Animals were divided in to 4 groups with the control, 4 g/kg ethanol, 8 g/kg ethanol and 16 g/kg ethanol administration groups. One hour after ethanol administration, saliva was collected from the oral cavity, and the animals were killed and parotid and submandibular glands were extracted to analyze the histopathology, AQP5 immunihistochemistry and AQP5 protein level. According to the results, the salivation rate decreased irrespective of the ethanol dose in mice, and viscosities increased with increase in ethanol dose. However, there were no pathological changes in parotid and submandibular glands due to ethanol administration. Expression of AQP5 in parotid and submandibular glands decreased with increase ethanol administration These results indicate that the reduction of salivary secretion due to acute alcohol intake is closely related to decrease of the water channel protein such as AQP5 in parotid glands and submandibular glands, rather than the damage of salivary glands.

Kinetics of anaerobic ethanol fermentation by Clostridium thermohydrosulfuricum were investigated for the one-step production of ethanol from starch. A mutant strain with a high ethanol yield was induced from C. thermohydrosulfuricum. The mutant, designated as ME4, produced anaerobically 6.1 g/l of ethanol, 3.1 g/l of lactate and 0.1 g/l of acetate from 20 g/l of starch at $68^{\circ}C.

A gas chromatographic utilizing procedure headspace gas analysis is performed to study effect of malotilate on levels of ethanol and its metabolite acetaldehyde in a blood sample from the rat. The concentrations of ethanol and acetaldehyde were determined simultaneously at 1, 3, and 6h after ethanol administration. Our results would suggest the malotilate could promote clearances of ethanol and acetaldehyde in blood, and could accelerate it, especially, in $CCl_4$ pretreated rats.

The effects of ethanol and acetaldehyde on monoamine oxidase activity in mouse liver mitochondrial fraction were studied. In vivo, a single dose of ethanol increased the hepatic monoamine oxidase activity compared to control group, and chronic ethanol consumption also increased the enzyme activity using tyramine, benzylamine or serotonin as substrate. Acetaldehyde, the metabolite of ethanol, significantly increased monoamine oxidase activity more than ethanol did. In contrast to the in vivo results, it was found that the monoamine oxidase activity was inhibited in vitro by ethanol or acetaldehyde in the dose-dependent manner.

In this paper, the effects of ethanol blended gasoline on emissions and their catalytic conversion efficiency characteristics were investigated in a multiple-point EFI gasoline engine, The results show that with the increase of ethanol concentration in the blended fuels, THC emissions were drastically reduced by up to thirty percent, And brake specific fuel consumption was increased, but brake specific energy consumption could be improved. However, unburned ethanol and acetaldehyde emissions increased. Pt/Rh based three-way catalysts were effective to reduce acetaldehyde emissions, but had low catalytic conversion efficiency for unburned ethanol. The effect of ethanol on CO and NOx emissions and their catalytic conversion efficiency had close relation to the engine's speed, load and air/fuel ratio. Furthermore fuels blended with thirty percent ethanol by volume could dramatically reduced THC CO and NOx emissions at idle speed.

Ethanol actions in the amygdala formation may underlie in part the reinforcing effects of ethanol consumption. Previously a physiological phenomenon in the basolateral amygdala (BLA) that is dependent on neuronal network activity, compound postsynaptic potentials (cPSPs) were characterized. Effects of acute ethanol application on the frequency of cPSPs were subsequently investigated. Whole cell patch clamp recordings were performed from identified projection neurons in a rat brain slice preparation containing the amygdala formation. Acute ethanol exposure had complex effects on cPSP frequency, with both increases and decreases dependent on concentration, duration of exposure and age of the animal. Ethanol produces complex biphasic effects on synaptically-driven network activity in the BLA. These findings may relate to subjective effects of ethanol on arousal and anxiolysis in humans.

The microcapsules containing ethanol in a water-soluble polymer shell could be formed by the spray-drying technique. A mixed solution of ethanol, water and a water-soluble polymer is spray-dried at the lowest possible temperature to obtain a powder product in which the water is substantially removed and the ethanol is encapsulated in water-soluble polymer shell because of the hydrophillic property of polymer and permeability difference between ethanol and water. In this study, the effect of sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS) on the ethanol content, ethanol encapsulation efficiency and yield were investigated to maximize the microencapsulation of ethanol.
