  • Bovine colostrum is necessary for newborn calves to survive, grow and receive immunity from their mother. Cows in Korea produce about 35kg of colostrum, 4Kg of which is fed to the calf, and the rest is discarded. The bovine colostrum causes the harmful side effects to human, such as allergies and digestive problems; so, it is prohibited by law to consume colostrum itself as a food. However, many scientific research data have suggested that components in the colostrum can improve human health and has the ability to help treat diseases. In line with the trend of food and pharmacy industries using natural product materials, which attract positive attention, recently, some ingredients in colostrum have been used in the production of food supplements, and it has been used in its raw form in some cosmetics. This review introduces the active ingredients and physiologically active substances contained in bovine colostrum, summarizes the efficacy of physiological enhancement of the colostrum, which has been proven by scientific methods to date, and also suggests the possibility of industrial applications of colostrum as an animal-derived natural material.

  • Composting is a biological method used to transform the organic waste into stable, humified organic amendments. Humification is indicated as the key factor in improving the quality of compost, because of the importance of humic substances to soil ecology, fertility and structure, and their beneficial effects on plant growth The compost constituents vary widely, however, the degree of maturity is very important factor in compost quality. So this experiment carried out to determine the rapid estimation of the quality in cattle, pig, chicken and waste composts using near infrared reflectance spectroscopy(NIRS). Near infrared reflectance spectra of composts was obtained by Infra Alyzer 500 scanning spectrophotometer at 2-nm intervals from 1100 to 2500nm. Multiple linear regression(MLR) or partial least square regression (PLSR) was used to evaluate a NIRS method for the rapid and nondestructive determination of humic acid contents in composts. The results summarized that NIR spectroscopy can be used as a routine testing method to determine quantitatively the humic acid content in the compost samples ondestructively. Especially, we supposed that absorbance around 2300nm is related to humic acid as a factor of compost maturity. However the NIR absorption approach is empirical, it actually requires many combinations of samples and data manipulations to obtain optimal prediction.

  • Pseudomonas fluorescens produces the antibiotic, 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol (Phl), which promotes plant growth by inhibiting bacteria and fungi. Cosmids (genomic library) were mobilized into Phl-nonproducing mutants through the triparental matings with pRK2013 as the helper plasmid at the frequency of 8.37$\times$10-4. Complemented mutants that showed antibiotic activity were selected among about 2,000 transconjugants. The complemented mutants were confirmed by acquired drug resistances (kanamycin and tetracycline). The antibiotic substances of wild type and complemented mutants showed the most excellent anti-bacterial activity. Inhibitory effects of complemented P. fluorescens against phytopathogenic fungi were equal to the parental strain. Complemented mutant and wild type of P. fluorescens were causal microbes of fungal morphological abnormalities. Complemented mutants in potato dextrose agar supplemented with bromothymol blue also showed restoration of glucose utilization as wild type. Plasmids of complemented mutants were isolated from transconjugant sand transformed into competent cells of E. coli DH5$\alpha$. The plamid DNA was reisolated from transformed E. coli DH5$\alpha$.

  • Antifungal activity of Korean and Chinese lichen-forming fungi(LFF) was evaluated against plant pathogenic fungi of Botryosphaeria dothidea, Botrytis cinerea, Diaporthe actinidiae, Pestalotiopsis longiseta, Pythium sp., Rhizoctonia solani, and Sclerotium cepivorum. The LFF were isolated from Cladonia scabriuscula, Melanelia sp., Nephromopsis asahinae, Nephromopsis pallescens, Parmelia laevior, Pertusaria sp., Ramalina conduplicans, Ramalina sinensis, Ramalina sp., Umbilicaria proboscidea and Vulpicida sp. with discharged spore method. The isolates were deposited in the herbarium of Korean Lichen Research Institute(KoLRI) in Sunchon National University. The LFF of Melanelia sp., P. laevior, Pertusaria sp., R. conduplican and Ramalina sp. exhibited strong antifungal activity against all of the pathogenic fungi examined. Among them, LFF of P. laevior showed more than 90% of inhibition in fungal hyphae growth, compared with control. The results imply that LFF can be served as a promising bioresource to develop novel biofungicides. Mass cultivation of the LFF is now under progress in laboratory conditions for chemical identification of antifungal substances.

  • Objectives : The purpose of this study is to analyze the practical implications of homeopathic medicines, their status, their preparation systems and registration rules, recognized by the European Union and other countries. Contents : This paper covers the background of homeopathic medical principle, homeopathy throughout the world, the medicine status and clinical research, increases of the drug potency, the practical regulation of treatment, preparation techniques of homeopathic drugs and registration rules and the clinical practice. Homeopathy has been currently practised in over eighty countries throughout the world, especially in Europe. It had attracted considerable attentions in South and North America (notably in USA, Brazil, and Argentina), India and Pakistan. Although it is not dominantly popular in North America, constant growth has been nevertheless noted. Over the last thirty years, homeopathy has also developed or appeared in South Africa, Tunisia, Morocco, Venezuela, Israel, and Australia, etc. Result & suggestion : As over 300 million patients have put their trust in homeopathy, the study of the integration of homeopathy to oriental medicine, its development and feasibility in Korea are urgently needed. The products, substances, compositions of Homeopathic drugs are very similar to those of oriental medicine theory. Therefore their preparations and applications should prescribed and practised exclusively by oriental doctors. Applying the homeopathic theory and its preparation techniques to oriental medicine, the herbal acupuncture preparation should be modernized and various oriental products are to be developed. To this end, government and herbal acupuncture society need to interact each other for the development of oriental medicine.

  • To isolate antifungal substances from Korean radish (Raphanus Sativus L.) seeds, various purification techniques such as DE52 cellulose anion exchange, SP-Sephadex C-25 cation exchange, and Sephadex G-50 gel filtration chromatographies were used. The molecular masses of two purified R. sativus antifungal proteins (RAPs) were estimated to be about 6.1 kDa (RAP-1) and 6.2 kDa (RAP-2) by SDS-PAGE, and 5.8 kDa(RAP-1) and 6.2 kDa (RAP-2 by a gel filtration chromatography, respectively. Purified proteins RAP-1 and 2 clearly exhibited different growth inhibitory activities against other microorganisms like Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Although they have similar molecular masses, both RAP-1 and 2 proteins are not identical because their microbial inhibitory actions were different. Therefore, RAP-1 could be a new antifungal protein when compared with the antifungal activities of 2S albumins, Rs-AFPs, Mj-AMPs, chitinase, glucanase, permatin, and ribosome inactivating proteins, all of which are anifungal proteins of plants.
