The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of increased levels of eugenol, thymol and malate on pH and the concentrations of VFA, lactate and ammonia-N during in vitro ruminal incubation. One Hanwoo beef steer (741 kg) fitted with a rumen cannula was used and fed 0.5 kg/day rice straw and 10 kg/day corn-based concentrate (ratio of concentrate to rice straw = 95 : 5 on DM basis). Three different doses of thymol, eugenol and malate were used. Treatments of the experiment were as follows: Treatments of thymol were control (1g D-glucose/40ml), T1 (1g D-glucose + 40 mg thymol/40 ml), T2 (1g D-glucose + 50 mg thymol/40 ml) and T3 (1g D-glucose + 60 mg thymol/40 ml). Treatments of eugenol were control (1g D-glucose/40 ml), E1 (1g D-glucose + 55 mg eugenol/40 ml), E2 (1g D-glucose + 65 mg eugenol/40 ml) and E3 (1g D-glucose + 75 mg eugenol/40 ml). Treatments of malate were control (1g D-glucose/40ml), M1 (1g D-glucose + 25 mg malate/40ml), M2 (1g D-glucose + 50 mg malate/40 ml) and M3 (1g D-glucose + 100 mg malate/40 ml). The results of this study showed that eugenol and thymol have improved stability of the ruminal fermentation by decreasing lactic acid concentration and increasing ruminal pH. However, it inhibited the production of total VFA, acetate and propionate. Malate also improved stability of the ruminal fermentation by decreasing lactic acid concentration and increasing ruminal pH, but it had a very little effect on ruminal lactate concentrations and pH. On the other hand, malate did not decrease the concentrations of total VFA, acetate and propionate. Therefore, at the low ruminal pH expected in high-concentrate diets, thymol, eugenol, and malate are potentially useful in Hanwoo finishing diets. Further studies are necessary for determining the effectiveness of these additives on in vivo rumen fermentation and animal performance in Hanwoo finishing steers.

Since the role of CD40 on the interleukin-4(IL-4) -induced B cell activation has been strongly implicated in the agumentation of IgE production and response, we have investigated the intracelluar signaling pathways utilized by IL-4 and CD40 for type II IgE receptor (CD23) expression. IL-4 and anti-CD40 antibody treatment of human B cells, independently caused a rapid induction of CD23 gene activation within 2 h. There was a noticeable synergism between the action of the two agents inducing CD23 expression: the addition of anti-CD40 to the IL-4-treated culture significantly agumented the IL-4-induced CD23 on both mRNA and surface protein levels, and the inclusion of IL-4 in the anti-CD40-treated cells caused a further increase of CD23 expression far above the maximal level induced by anti-CD40. Protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors effectively suppressed the both IL-4- and anti -CD40-induced CD23 expression. whereas protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors had no effects. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) have shown that IL-4 and anti-CD40 induce the activation of NF-IL-4 and $NF-_{K}B$, respectively, binding to the CD23 promoter, both in a PKC-independent and PTK-dependent manner. These data suggest that the synergistic activation of CD23 gene expression by IL-4 and anti-CD40 is mediated by co-operative action of distinct nuclear factors. each of which is rapidly activated via PKC-independent and PTK-dependent process.

We investigated possible effect of different concentration of sugar solution and addition of antiseptic in the solution on oviposition and colony development of Bombus ignitus and B. terrestris. The rates of oviposition, colony foundation and progeny-queen production of B. ignitus were 1.2-3.0 fold higher in the 40$\%$ sugar solution than those of the 50$\%$ sugar solution. The rates of oviposition, colony foundation and progeny­queen production were 1.1-2.6 fold higher in the 40$\%$ sugar solution added in 0.3$\%$ sorbic acid as antiseptic than those of the 40$\%$ sugar solution. Further, the death rate within one month was 1.7 fold lower in the 40$\%$ sugar solution added in 0.3$\%$ sorbic acid than that of 40$\%$ sugar solution alone. In the comparison of the colony development tested using imported sugar solution, the Beehappy???, the 40$\%$ sugar solution added to antiseptic and the 40$\%$ sugar solution with­out antiseptic, the 40$\%$ sugar solution added to antiseptic was about equal to the Beehappy??? in colony development of B. terrestris. Further, the number of adults produced was 1.2-3.0 fold higher in the 40$\%$ sugar solution added to antiseptic than that of the Bee­happy???. Therefore the 40$\%$ sugar solution was more effective than the 50$\%$ sugar solution, and the 40$\%$ sugar solution added to antiseptic was the most effective in colony development and mass rearing of bumblebee.

The effect of polysorbate 40, used as a surfactant during the process of manufacture, on the properties of cytarabine microspheres with carnaubu wax was studied. It was revealed that the mean particle size increased in proportion to the concentration of polysorbate 40, and that the dissolution rate of the cytarabine from the microspheres decreased greatly more than the cytarabine powder only, but increased in proportion to the concentration of polysorbate 40 as surfactant.

용융탄산염형 연료전지의 특성을 결정짓는 탄산염 전해질에 있어, 기존의 Li-K와 Li-Na 탄산염과는 다른 Li-Na-K 삼원계 탄산염의 특성을 산소환원 및 산화니켈 용해거동을 통해 검토하였다. 대상 삼원계 전해질은 Li-Na-K=47.4-32.6-20, 60-20-20, 50-40-10, $40-40-20mo1\%$이었으며, $650^{\circ}C$, 1기압 조건에서 산소환원 거동은 전기화학적 방법을 통해, NiO용해거동은 화학적 방법을 통해 검토하였다 삼원계 조성에 따라 산소환원 전류치의 차이가 관찰되어, 산소용해도가 조성에 의존함을 나타내었다. 또한 $Li-Na-K = 50-40-10 mol\%$ 조성에서는 다른 형태의 산소환원 피크가 관찰되어 조성에 따라 산소환원 메카니즘의 차이가 존재할 수 있음을 시사하였다. 그러나 산화니켈 용해도는 조성에 크게 의존하지 않는 특성을 보여주었다.

Background and Objectives : Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer is a medical plant that has been widely utilized as a tonic and nutritional agent since ancient times in Korea. Ginseng has anti-metastatic property of cancer and immunomodulating activity. The novel acidic polysaccharide compound(MB40) was isolated from the leaves of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer. To determine immunomodulating activities of MB40, we evaluate anti-cancer and anti-metastatic effects of MB40 in tumor bearing immune competent mice. Material and Methods : C3H mice were divided into three equal groups(Cisplatin treatment group, MB40 treat-ment group, Cisplatin and MB40 treatment group) and were transplanted SCC(Squamous Cell Carcinoma) cells(2${\times}$106) to the lateral side of abdomen. From day 4 after transplantation, MB40 was administrated at dose of 10mg/kg, respectively, every other day by intratumoral injection. Cisplatin was systemically administrated at doses of 1mg/kg, respectively, every week by intraperitoneal injection. Results : 5 days after administration, tumors can be palpated in every mice group. After 13 days of administration, the mice group to which MB40 were administrated exhibited reduction in tumor size respectively, compared to cisplatin group. Overall status of mice such as body weight and activity were superior in MB40 group than cisplatin group. Conclusion : The result of this study indicates MB40 may have significant therapeutic effect and decreases complications induced by systemic chemotheraphy. MB40 may be developed as a novel and potent immunotropics to improve the cell immune system and anti-cancer drug for the treatment of cancer patients in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

여름철에 생산되는 '금싸라기' 품종 참외의 기존 유통조건을 고려하여 $20^{\circ}C$에 저장하면서 기능성 MA 포장기법의 적용효과를 확인하였다. 필름 포장내의 $O_2$와 $CO_2$ 함량은 포장 후 1일 후까지 급격히 변하였고, 에틸렌 함량도 밀봉 직후 급격히 증가하여 $40{\mu}m$ 두께의 LDPE 필름 포장구(40LD)가 65.5ppm까지 증가하였다. 저장 중 품질변화 측정에서 대조구의 중량손실은 저장 10일 후 7.68%였으나 포장구는 $20{\mu}m$ 두께의 기능성 소재처리 포장구(20CK)를 제외하고 1.0%이하의 수준이었다. 가용성고형분, pH, 산도 등에서는 처리구간에 유의적인 차이가 나타나지 않았으나, 경도는 저장 3일 후 $40{\mu}m$ 두께의 기능성 소재처리 포장구(40CK)와 $40{\mu}m$ 두께의 에틸렌흡착제 첨가 포장구(40LP)가 높게 유지되었다. 저장 중 과피색 변화는 대조구가 저장초기부터 급격하였으며, 40CK가 가장 완만한 색변화를 보였다. 혐기호흡으로 생성되는 아세트알데히드와 에탄올은 $40{\mu}m$ 필름 처리구에서 높았으며, 20CK는 필름의 높은 투과율로 인하여 낮은 수준을 유지하였다. 외관 및 관능적 품질에서 대조구과 포장구간에 유의적인 차이가 인정되었으며, 특히 40CK는 전반적으로 높은 평가를 받아서 상품성 유지에 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 이와 같은 결과를 종합해 볼때 여름철 참외의 유통을 위한 포장처리구중 40CK 포장구가 상품성이 높게 유지되어 단기간 상온유통용 포장방법으로 적용이 가능하다고 판단되었다.
