This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of pre-rigor salting level (0-4% NaCl concentration) on physicochemical and textural properties of pre-rigor chicken breast muscles. The pre-rigor chicken breast muscles were de-boned 10 min post-mortem and salted within 25 min post-mortem. An increase in pre-rigor salting level led to the formation of high ultimate pH of chicken breast muscles at post-mortem 24 h. The addition of minimum of 2% NaCl significantly improved water holding capacity, cooking loss, protein solubility, and hardness when compared to the non-salting chicken breast muscle (p<0.05). On the other hand, the increase in pre-rigor salting level caused the inhibition of myofibrillar protein degradation and the acceleration of lipid oxidation. However, the difference in NaCl concentration between 3% and 4% had no great differences in the results of physicochemical and textural properties due to pre-rigor salting effects (p>0.05). Therefore, our study certified the pre-rigor salting effect of chicken breast muscle salted with 2% NaCl when compared to post-rigor muscle salted with equal NaCl concentration, and suggests that the 2% NaCl concentration is minimally required to ensure the definite pre-rigor salting effect on chicken breast muscle.

Among various species of marine bacteria, those belonging to the genus Halomonas have several promising applications and have been studied well. However, not much information has been available on their antibiotic resistance. In our efforts to learn about the antibiotic resistance of strain Halomonas socia CKY01, which showed production of various hydrolases and growth promotion by osmolytes in previous study, we found that it exhibited resistance to multiple antibiotics including kanamycin, ampicillin, oxacillin, carbenicillin, gentamicin, apramycin, tetracycline, and spectinomycin. However, the H. socia CKY01 resistance pattern to kanamycin, gentamicin, apramycin, tetracycline, and spectinomycin differed in the presence of 10% NaCl and 1% NaCl in the culture medium. To determine the mechanism underlying this NaCl concentration-dependent antibiotic resistance, we compared four aminoglycoside resistance genes under different salt conditions while also performing time-dependent reverse transcription PCR. We found that the aph2 gene encoding aminoglycoside phosphotransferase showed increased expression under the 10% rather than 1% NaCl conditions. When these genes were overexpressed in an Escherichia coli strain, pETDuet-1::aph2 showed a smaller inhibition zone in the presence of kanamycin, gentamicin, and apramycin than the respective control, suggesting aph2 was involved in aminoglycoside resistance. Our results demonstrated a more direct link between NaCl and aminoglycoside resistance exhibited by the H. socia CKY01 strain.

Polarization behavior and corrosion inhibition of copper in acidic chloride solutions containing benzotriazole were studied. Pourbaix diagrams constructed for copper in NaCl solutions with different BTAH concentrations were used to understand the polarization behavior. Open circuit potential (OCP) depended not only on chloride concentration, but also on whether a CuBTA layer was formed on the copper surface. Only when the (pH, OCP) was located well in the CuBTA region of the Pourbaix diagram, a stable corrosion inhibiting CuBTA layer was formed, which was confirmed by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and a long-term corrosion test. The OCP for the CuBTA layer decreased logarithmically with increasing [Cl^-] activity in the solution. A minimum BTAH concentration required to form a CuBTA layer for a given NaCl concentration and pH were determined from the Pourbaix diagram. It was found that 320 ppm BTAH solution could be used to form a corrosion-inhibiting CuBTA layer inside the corrosion pit in the sprinkler copper tube, successfully reducing water leakage rate of copper tubes. These experimental results could be used to estimate water chemistry inside a corrosion pit.

Optimum temperature and pH of glutamine synthetase activity (E.C. 3.6.1.2.) of R. sphaeroides D-230 was $35^{\circ}C$ and 6.8, respectively. The adenylated state of GS in R. sphaeroides D-230 was stabilized by addition of 0.2mg/ml of cethyltrimethylammoniumbromide. Valine, histidine, proline, isoleucine, and lysine were good nitrogen source for the growth of R. sphaeroides D-230. The growth of R. sphaeroides D-230 in $N_2,\;NaNO_3\;or\;NH_4Cl$ as sole nitrogen source was lower than in any otherculture conditions. GS activity was inhibited, more or less, by various amino acid. THe relative inhibition rate of the enzyme by added 7mM arginine, $NH_4Cl,\;N_2,\;and\;NaNO_3$ was 63.8%, 26.79%, 6.24%, and 10.64%, drespectively. THe hydrogen evolution of R. sphaeroides D-230 grown in N-limited media was inhibited by 0.1mM MSX, irreversible GS inhibitor. GS activity was completely inhibited by 1.0mM MSX but ammonia released maximally at the same concentration of MSX. Ammonia release by added MSX was increased up to 1.0mM MS, but decreased above 1.0mM MSX. It is probably due to inhibition of nitrogenase actixity by MSX. Nitrogenase activity was not inhibited at low concentration of MSX. These results suggests that the inhibition of nitrogenase activity by ammonia is mediated by products of ammonia assimilation rather than by ammonia itself.

비살균 처리 농산식품에 오염되어 있는 세균성 식중독균인 B. cereus의 저감화 할 수 있는 방법을 개발하고자 하였다 B. cereus를 20% ethanol농도에서 5분간 처리 시에는 생육에 영향이 없었으나 30% ethanol에서 5분간 처리하였을 경우 생육저해효과를 보였다. 또한 처리시간이 경과함에 따라 뚜렷한 증식저해 효과를 나타냈으며 E. coli, S. typhimurium 보다 더 많은 생육저해 현상을 보였다. 10% NaCl에서 5분간 처리한 경우 모든 균주에서 효과가 없는 것으로 나타났지만 10% NaCl 과 20% ethanol을 조합하여 5분, 10분간 처리한 경우 모든 균에서 생육이 저해되었다. 특히 B. cereus의 경우는 5분 처리 후에 $10^8cfu/mL$수준에서 $10^2cfu/mL$로 감소하였으며 10분간 처리 시 모두 사멸되는 synergy효과를 보였고 야생형의 B. cereus에서도 비슷한 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 특별한 살균처리 없이 식용되는 여러 농산 식품소재의 전처리에 적용함으로써 식중독 유발균의 오염을 저감화 하는데 활용될 수 있으리라 사료된다.

토마토 초장의 경우 심층수처리는 대조구에 비해 두상관수는 50%, 저면관수는 58% 감소하였고, 표층수 처리구에서는 두상관수는 49%, 저면관수는 56% 감소하였으며, NaCl 처리구에서는 두상관수는 47%, 저면관수는 57%감소하여 저면관수 처리방법이 도장억제에 더 효과적이었다. 지상부 생체중의 경우 두상관수보다 저면관수에서 더 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 뚜렷한 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 지하부 생체중 대조구에 비하여 두상관수는 38%정도 감소한 반면 저면관수는 49% 정도 감소하여, 저면관수에 의해 생육이 현저히 억제되는 결과를 보였다. 지상부와 지하부의 건물중은 생체중과 비슷한 경향을 나타냈다. 이와 같은 결과는 염에 의한 뿌리생육의 저하 때문인 것으로 판단된다. 경경은 대조구에 비해 감소하였지만 처리 방법 간에 뚜렷한 차이를 보이지는 않았다. T/R률에 비추어 보면 두상관수 처리에서 묘소질이 더 뛰어났으나, 묘의 충실도(compactness)는 처리구간 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 토마토의 경우 초장의 억제정도나 묘의 충실도에 비춰보아 저면관수 방법이 도장억제에 더 효과적이라 사료된다. 오이의 경우 처리 농도의 증가에 따라 초장, 생체중, 건물중, 경경, 엽면적이 감소하였다. 저면관수가 두상관수에 비해 도장억제 효과와, 생육억제가 좀 더 뚜렷이 나타나기는 하였으나 두 처리간의 유의적 차이는 나타나지 않았다.

본 연구는 염분 스트레스가 고들빼기(Crepidiastrum sonchifolium)의 항산화 및 항염증 활성에 미치는 영향을 확인하기 위해 NaCl를 농도별로 0, 50, 100, 200 mM 6주간 처리한 후, 식물체 전체를 채취하여 70% 에탄올 추출물을 제조하였다. NaCl 처리 농도 0, 100, 50 mM 순으로 DPPH 라디칼 소거율이 높게 나타났으며, 200mM 처리군에서는 가장 낮은 라디칼 소거율을 보였다. 총 페놀 및 총 플라보노이드 함량 또한 NaCl 농도에 따라 항산화 활성과 매우 유사한 결과를 나타냈으며, 식물의 페놀 화합물이 염분 스트레스에 대한 항산화 능력에 기여할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 또한, NaCl 처리 고들빼기 추출물이 LPS로 자극한 마우스 대식세포주(Raw 264.7)에서 NO 생성 억제에 미치는 영향을 비교한 결과, NaCl 농도별 모든 그룹의 1,000㎍/mL 처리군에서 LPS에 의해 유도된 NO 생성량이 유의적으로 감소하였으나, NaCl 100mM 및 200mM 처리군의 고농도(1,000㎍/mL) 처리는 세포생존에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 결과는 건강한 상태의 식물체에서 라디칼 소거능이 가장 우수하며, 100mM NaCl 처리농도까지 염분 스트레스에 대응하기 위한 항산화 물질을 생산하지만, 200mM의 높은 NaCl 농도는 오히려 식물체 생리활성에 부정적인 영향을 주는 것으로 판단된다. 고들빼기의 경우 100mM 이하의 NaCl 처리는 항산화 활성에 영향을 줄 수 있으며, 이전에 보고된 생장 지표의 결과와 비교하였을 때, 50mM 이하의 NaCl 처리 환경에서 식물의 생장 및 생리활성에 긍정적인 영향을 줄 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

An on-line corrosion rate measurement system was developed using a personal computer, a data acquisition board and program, and a 2-electrode corrosion probe. Reliability of the developed system was confirmed with through comparison test. With this system, the effect of sodium nitrite ($NaNO_2$) as a corrosion inhibitor were studied on iron and aluminum brass that were immersed in sodium chloride (NaCl) solution. Corrosion rate was measured based on the linear polarization resistance method. The corrosion rates of aluminum brass and iron in 1% NaCl solutions were measured to be 0.290 mm per year (mmpy) and 0.2134 mmpy, respectively. With the addition of 200 ppm of $NO{_2}^-$, the corrosion rates decreased to 0.0470 mmpy and 0.0254 mmpy. The addition of $NO{_2}^-$ caused a decrease in corrosion rates of both aluminum brass and iron, yet the $NO{_2}^-$ acted as a more effective corrosion inhibitor for iron. than aluminum brass.

The present study was undertaken in investigate the response to salinity and effect of plant growth regulators and proline under salinity stress on the germination and seedling growth of Vigna angularis. The protective effect of external Ca2+ on root elongation under saline conditions was also investigated. The seed germination of Vigna angularis decreased with an increase in salinity. The growth regulators GA3 was more effective than kinetin. At a higher salinity, low concentrations of kinetin and high concentrations of GA3 were more effective. The external application of proline and betaine improved germination under saline conditions. At a low salinity proline and betaine alleviated the salinity-induced inhibition of germination, yet at higher NaCl concentrations, proline and betaine were both ineffective. Exposure to salinity during germination was accompanied by an increase in the proline content, thereby suggesting that one compatible solute in the germinating seed would seem to be proline. The inhibition of germination by high NaCl concentrations was relatively more severe in scarified seeds than in intact seeds, indicating that the seed coat acts as a partial barrier to an Na2+ ameliorated the adverse effect of salinity stress.

Extract of ginger has been evaluated as a green inhibitor for the corrosion of steel in sulfide polluted NaCl solution using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) techniques. Potentiodynamic polarization measurements showed that this extract acts as a mixed type inhibitor but mainly inhibits the cathodic reaction. The inhibition efficiency was found to increase with inhibitor concentration reaching to approximately 83.9% using 250 ppm of ginger. Nyquist plots show a single capacitive loop in uninhibited and inhibited solutions. From EFM the causality factors are very close to theoretical values which indicate that the measured data are of good quality. The adsorption process of the studied extract on steel surface obeys Temkin adsorption isotherm. The results obtained from the different electrochemical techniques were in good agreement which prove the validity of these tools in measurement of corrosion rate. Ginger extract has no effect on Escherichia Coli and can be applied safely on waste water treatment plants.
