Large quantities of Korean wild grape (Vitis coignetiae, KWG) pomace, a by-product of grape juice and wine manufacture, are generated annually, and disposal cost of KWG pomace is now increasing. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine total polyphenol, flavonoid, and anthocyanin content in whole KWG, KWG skin and KWG pomace and to identify and quantify flavonoids found in whole KWG and KWG pomace using LC/MS/MS. Spectral analysis showed high total polyphenol and flavonoid in KWG skin extracted with 75% ethanol (p < 0.05). KWG pomace had higher amount of total polyphenol, flavonoid and anthocyanin than whole grape (p < 0.05). Sixteen flavonoids were identified, but only 10 flavonoids were quantifiable from whole KWG and KWG pomace. Both epicatechin and rutin were the major flavonoids, and 521 or 147 ng/g of epicatechin (p < 0.05) and 305 or 110 ng/g of rutin (p > 0.05) were found in whole KWG and KWG pomace, respectively. The results show that KWG pomace is a very rich source of flavonoids, thus KWG pomace can be used as a functional food additive. Plans to include KWG pomace in food production are necessary.

As a result of contemporary environmental concerns, a number of studies from plants' tissues as one of the alternatives to conventional chemicals are increasingly investigated. In tandem with these trends, Lagenaria breviflora (LB) fruit, reputed as antiviral and depilatory agents in the Yoruba folkloric medicine was examined on Vitex doniana wood to ascertain its antifungal activity. Fungicides of 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100% LB fruits formulations (concentrations) were developed through simple one-step mechanical-forming process, including control. In this study, the yield, the chemical compositions, the absorption capacity of the fungicides and wood weight losses (WWL) analysis were evaluated to investigate the antifungal activity of LB fruit on wood. The fruit extract yielded 35.4% of fresh juice weight. LB fruits contained total: alkaloids ($8.78{\pm}0.21mg/mL$), flavonoids ($2.01{\pm}0.02mg/mL$), phenol ($7.42{\pm}0.09mg/mL$), saponins ($11.00{\pm}0.10mg/mL$) and tannins ($5.47{\pm}0.05mg/mL$) contents. All the formulations provided effective protection against the tested wood fungi compared to control. Interestingly, the antifungal activity of 50% and 25% formulations of 6.8% WWL and 9.9% WWL satisfied the excellent fungal resistance class description against white rot fungus (Ganoderma lucidum) and brown rot fungus (Fibroporia vaillantii), respectively according to ASTM D 2017. These results thus, support LB fruit as a strong potential source of natural antifungals for industrial wood production.

Plants of the genus Hypericum (Family - Hypericaceae) are herbs, shrubs or small trees and are distributed chiefly in the temperate regions of the world. About 400 different species of Hypericum are available throughout the globe and 20 species occur in India, including a few cultivated in gardens. Almost all plants of the genus Hypericum are widely used in folk medicine. Several potent phytoconstituents from different Hypericum species have led to the isolation of antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic compounds. With the development of resistance and cross resistance with different microorganisms and the evolution of so many deadly diseases the screening and evaluation of the phytoconstituents so much so the development of varied phytoconstituents for the drug development for these deadly diseases is utmost essential in every aspects. The present review on the antimicrobial use of different Hypericum reports the findings from and extensive literature search on the Hypericum species around the globe that have been assessed for antimicrobial and antiviral activity. An attempt has been made through this review to summarize the information in this aspect in order to highlight the promising species of this genus which are worthy for further investigation as leads for drug development. Over 31 different Hypericum species have been reported to possess such activities with their varied number of phytoconstituents. Sixteen different constituents of six different classes of phytoconstituents have been reported to be present in different varieties of Hypericum, which may be considered responsible for this activity.

기계가 움직일 때의 동작들은 일정한 원리에 의해 움직이기 때문에 아무리 복잡하고 다양한 기계라 할지라도 기계의 운동을 지배하는 근원적 원리가 있다. 자율적 움직임은 반복을 피할 수 있고, 더 인간적이며 더 자연적인 요소에 근접하는 길이다. 복제가 아닌 독창적인 움직임은 더더욱 그러하다. 따라서 현재, 기계의 역동성은 인간의 참여에 의해 더욱 다감각적으로 표현될 수 있는 가능성에 도전하고 있으며 사실과 복제의 경계에서 그 표현영역을 점점 확대시키고 있다. 테오얀센의 작품들은 각각의 시기별로 다른 환경에 적응토록 변화하여 그의 수십 년에 걸친 연구는 초기에서 현재까지 계속 진화되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 그 진화의 초점은 무엇보다 개체를 구성하는 부품들 간의 유기적 결합이 가진 원리로부터 반복되는 원형운동과 수평적 왕복운동이라는 동일한 근원지를 가지고 있음을 알 수 있다.

잔향에 대한 인간의 주관적인 지각을 객관적인 수치로써 나타내는 방법으로 5자유도 잔향 모델이 제안된 바 있다[1]. 5자유도 잔향 모델은 잔향에 대한 다섯 개의 객관적인 평가량들을 이용하여 시간에 따른 음 에너지 감쇠 곡선을 근사한 것으로, 인공적으로 잔향을 합성하고자 할 때 잔향 필터의 설계 기준으로 유용하게 사용될 수 있다. 그러나 이로부터 구현할 수 있는 잔향 필터는 이론적으로 무한히 많을 수 있고, 따라서 인간이 듣기에 부자연스러운 합성음을 만들어 내는 경우도 존재할 수 있다. 본 논문은 5자유도 잔향 모델의 한계를 시간 영역과 주파수 영역으로 나누어 살펴보고 잔향 모델, 즉 원하는 잔향 조건이 주어졌을 때 자연스러운 잔향을 얻기 위해 필요한 필터 설계 기준을 실제 청음 실험을 통하여 제시하고 있다.

Background: Panax ginseng Meyer (Araliaceae) is a highly valued medicinal plant in Asian regions, especially in Korea, China, and Japan. Chemical and biological studies on P. ginseng have focused primarily on its roots, whereas the seeds remain poorly understood. This study explores the phytochemical and biological properties of compounds from P. ginseng seeds. Methods: P. ginseng seeds were extracted with methanol, and 16 compounds were isolated using various chromatographic methods. The chemical structures of the isolates were determined by spectroscopic data. Antiinflammatory activities were evaluated for triterpene and steroidal saponins using lipopolysaccharide-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages and THP-1 monocyte leukemia cells. Results: Phytochemical investigation of P. ginseng seeds led to the isolation of a novel triterpene saponin, pseudoginsenoside RT₈, along with 15 known compounds. Pseudoginsenoside RT₈ exhibited more potent antiinflammatory activity than the other saponins, attenuating lipopolysaccharide-mediated induction of proinflammatory genes such as interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, inducible nitric oxide synthase, cyclooxygenase-2, and matrix metalloproteinase-9, and suppressed reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide generation in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion: These findings indicate that pseudoginsenoside RT₈ has a pharmaceutical potential as an antiinflammatory agent and that P. ginseng seeds are a good natural source for discovering novel bioactive molecules.

본 연구에서는 국내외 주요 포도 가공품인 포도즙과 포도주의 일반분석 및 대표적인 폴리페놀화합물인 레스베라트롤, 쿼세틴 및 카테킨에 대한 함량 분석을 실시하였다. 한국산 포도제품과 외국산과의 색도, pH, 산도, 에탄올 함량 등은 제품, 품종, 제조국가 간에 유의적인 차이가 있었다. 유리당 조성은 포도즙과 포도주 사이에 큰 차이를 보였으며, 포도주 내에서도 통계적으로 유의한 결과를 나타났다. 레스베라트롤과 쿼세틴 함량에서는 국내산 포도즙 사이에 유의적인 차이를 발견할 수 있었으며 포도주가 포도즙보다 대체로 높은 경향이었다. 에피카테킨 함량 및 조성에서도 제품, 품종, 제조국가 간에 유의적인 차이가 인정되었다. 이러한 결과는 향후 포도 육종가, 재배 농가나 판매자들에게 유용한 정보가 될 것으로 기대된다.

The antioxidant activities of water ($H_2O$) and ethanol (EtOH) extracts from hamcho (Salicornia herbacea L.) juice and cake prepared by enzymatic treatments were evaluated by in vitro assays against DPPH, superoxide, and hydroxyl radicals. Among the $H_2O$ and EtOH extracts from five different carbohydrases treated, the EtOH extract from viscozyme-treated hamcho cake had higher yield and phenolic content, and exhibited the strongest radical scavenging activity against DPPH ($IC_{50}=186.91\;{\mu}g/mL$), superoxide ($IC_{50}=87.54\;{\mu}g/mL$), and hydroxyl radicals ($IC_{50}=367.07\;{\mu}g/mL$). Antioxidant assay-guided fractionation and purification of the EtOH extract led to isolation and identification of five phenolic compounds, procatechuic, ferulic and caffeic acids, quercetin, and isorhamnetin. Most of these phenolic compounds exhibited considerable DPPH, superoxide, and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, and in particular, caffeic and ferulic acids had stronger superoxide and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities than the well-known antioxidant radical scavenger, (+)-catechin (p<0.05). Quercetin and isorhamnetin were the primary compounds responsible for the strong antioxidant activity in the EtOH extract of the viscozyme-treated hamcho cake. Meanwhile, these five phenolic compounds were detected in the EtOH extract of the viscozyme-treated hamcho cake at the following levels (dry base of hamcho); procatechuic acid (1.54 mg%), caffeic acid (6.87 mg%), ferulic acid (8.45 mg%), quercetin (12.63 mg%), and isorhamnetin (6.65 mg%). However, three of these phenolic compounds (procatechuic, caffeic acid, and ferulic acids) were detectable in the $H_2O$ extract of viscozyme-treated hamcho juice. These results suggest that the EtOH extract of viscozyme-treated hamcho cake may be a potential source of natural antioxidants.
