Objectives : The aim of this study was to investigate the effects water extract of fermented new korean medicinal mixture, combinations of Mori Folium, Adenophorae Radix, Phllostachyos Folium and Citri Pericarpium (F-MAPC), on adipocyte differentiation, adipogenesis and glucose uptake using undiffernentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes and L6 myoblasts. Methods : Each herb and those mixture were respectively fermented and then extracted with water. We carried on MTT assay for check-up on cell toxicity, Oil Red O staining for determination of cell differentiation and intracelluar adipogenesis. Western blot analysis for measurement of pAMPK and pACC, $C/EBP{\alpha}$, $PPAR{\gamma}$ and Glut-4 protein expressions were performed. Results : F-MAPC showed significant inhibitory activity on adipocyte differentiation in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes without affecting cell toxicity as assessed by measuring fat accumulation, and this effect was 2 fold higher in 0.2 mg/ml F-MAPC than that of the same dose of each fermented herbal extract alone. In addition, these effects were associated with modulation of adipogenic transcription factors, such as $C/EBP{\alpha}$, $PPAR{\gamma}$, as well as stimulated phosphorylations of AMPK and ACC. Translocation of Glut-4 was significantly increased by 10.2% in L6 cells treated with 0.2 mg/ml F-MAPC compared with that of control. Conclusions : These results demonstrate that F-MAPC may be an ideal candidate for therapy of obesity and diabetes by disturbing the differentiation into adipocytes, as well as the inducement of intramuscular glucose uptake from blood.

Objective: This study aimed to determine and compare the apparent ileal digestibility (AID) and the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids (AA) in soybean meal (SBM), cottonseed meal (CSM), and low-gossypol cottonseed meal (LCSM) fed to broiler chickens and laying hens. Methods: Three semi-purified diets containing the identical crude protein concentration at 20% were formulated to contain SBM, CSM, or LCSM as the sole source of N. A N-free diet was also formulated to estimate the basal ileal endogenous losses of AA for broilers and hens. A total of 300 male Ross 308 chicks at one-day-old and 144 Hy-Line Brown laying hens at 30-week-old with initial egg production rate of 88.3%±1.0% were randomly allocated into 1 of 4 dietary treatments, respectively. Results: CSM and LCSM showed more Arg and Cys+Met while less Lys, Ile, Leu, and Thr relative to SBM. Significant interactions existed between species and experimental diets for AID (except for Arg, Asp, Glu, Gly, and Pro) and SID (except for Arg, His, and Phe) of most AA. Most AA in diets showed higher AID (except for Lys) and SID (except for Lys, Met, and Ser) in broilers relative to laying hens. The AID and SID of all AA were significantly different between the three diets. In broilers, the AID and SID of most indispensable AA except for Arg in SBM and LCSM was higher than CSM. In laying hens, the AID and SID of most indispensable AA except for Arg, Met+Cys, and Phe in SBM was higher than CSM and LCSM. Conclusion: The accurate determination of AID and SID of AA in CSM and LCSM for broilers and layers benefits the application of CSM and LCSM in chicken diets. The cottonseed by-products CSM or LCSM showed the species-specific AA digestibility values for broilers and layers.

Objective: The experiment aimed to determine the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of crude protein (CP) and amino acids (AA) in 10 brown rice samples fed to pigs, and to construct predictive models for SID of CP and AA based on the physical characteristics and chemical composition of brown rice. Methods: Twenty-two cannulated pigs (initial body weight: 42.0±1.2 kg) were assigned to a replicated 11×3 incomplete Latin square design, including an N-free diet and 10 brown rice diets. Each period included 5 d adaptation and 2 d ileal digesta collection. Chromic oxide was added at 0.3% to all the diets as an indigestible marker for calculating the ileal CP and AA digestibility. Results: The coefficients of variation of all detected indices for physical characteristics and chemical composition, except for bulk weight, dry matter (DM) and gross energy, in 10 brown rice samples were greater than 10%. The SID of CP, lysine (Lys), methionine, threonine (Thr), and tryptophan (Trp) in brown rice was 77.2% (62.6% to 85.5%), 87.5% (80.3% to 94.3%), 89.2% (78.9% to 98.9%), 55.4% (46.1% to 67.6%) and 92.5% (86.3% to 96.3%), respectively. The best prediction equations for the SID of CP, Lys, Thr, and Trp were as following, SID_CP = -664.181+8.484×DM (R² = 0.40), SID_Lys = 53.126+6.031×ether extract (EE)+0.893×thousand-kernel volume (R² = 0.66), SID_Thr = 39.916+7.843×EE (R² = 0.41), and SID_Trp = -361.588+4.891×DM+0.387×total starch (R² = 0.85). Conclusion: Overall, a great variation exists among 10 sources of brown rice, and the thousand-grain volume, DM, EE, and total starch can be used as the key predictors for SID of CP and AA.

This study mainly evaluated the responses in growth performance of growing pigs to different energy systems and energy levels in diets. Subsequently, we compared the nutrient digestibility and digestible nutrient concentrations of each energy level diet. In experiment 1, a total of 144 growing pigs with an average initial body weight (BW) of 26.69 ± 7.39 kg were randomly allotted to six dietary treatments (four pigs/pen; six replicates/treatment) according to a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement resulting from two energy systems (metabolizable energy [ME] and net energy [NE]) and three energy levels (low [LE], recommended [C], and high energy [HE]). Pigs were fed the experimental diets for 6 weeks and were allowed free access to feed and water during the experimental period. In experiment 2, 12 growing pigs with an average initial BW of 27.0 ± 1.8 kg were randomly allotted to individual metabolism crates and fed the six diets in a replicated 6 × 6 Latin square design. The six dietary treatments were identical to those used in the growth trial. Pigs were fed their respective diets at 2.5 times the estimated energy requirement for maintenance per day, and this was divided into two equal meals provided twice per day during the experimental period. Differences in energy systems and energy levels had no significant effect on the growth performance or nutrient digestibility (except acid-hydrolyzed ether extract [AEE]) of growing pigs in the current study. However, the digestible concentrations of ether extract, AEE, and acid detergent fiber (g/kg dry matter [DM]) in diets significantly increased (p < 0.05) with increasing energy levels. Additionally, there was a tendency (p = 0.09) for an increase in the digestible crude protein content (g/kg DM) as the energy content of the diet increased. Consequently, differences in energy systems and levels did not affect the BW, average daily gain, and average daily feed intake of growing pigs. This implies that a higher variation in dietary energy levels may be required to significantly affect growth performance and nutrient digestibility when considering digestible nutrient concentrations.

The purpose of this study was to develop supplementary foods for infants and young children in order to improve their nutritional status. Three formulas composed of rice, soybeans, fish, dry skim milk and sesame in varying proportions were studied. The three formulas, $RS_{1}S_{2}$, $RFS_{1}S_{2}$, and $RMS_{1}S_{2}$, were consisted of Rice(R), Soybean$(S_{1})$, Sesame$(S_{2})$ (60 : 35 : 5) , Rice, Fish(F), Soybean, Sesame (60 : 10 : 25 : 5) , and Rice, Dry Skin Milk (M), Soybean, Sesame (60 : 10 : 25 : 5), respectively. A proximate analysis and amino acid determination were made on the developed formulas. In the animal assay, growth rate, PER and FER were evaluated and biochemical analyses were also carried out. A storage test and the cost evaluation were also conducted. The summarized results are as follows : 1) The proximate composition of the three formulas were 7.3-7.4% of moisture, 15.9-21.5% of crude protein, 7.8-9.6% of crude fat and 2.5-2.8% ash. 2) The result of amino acid analysis showed that the 1st limiting amino acids of $RS_{1}S_{2}$ and $RFS_{1}S_{2}$ were lysine (amino acid score, 76.6) and threonine (amino acid score, 93.3), and that of $RMS_{1}S_{2}$ and the commercially prepared formula were sulfur containing amino acids (amino acid score, 82.0 and 54.4). When the contents of the amino acids of the three formulas were compared with mother's milk and cow's milk, the balance of the amino acid of each formula was superior to mother's milk but inferior to cow's milk. 3) In the animal assay, the growth rate of all groups increased gradually during the experimental period. 4) The C- PER, which was corrected on the basis of the casein PER of 2.5 was 2.99, 3.38 and 3.10 in the $RS_{1}S_{2}$, $RFS_{1}S_{2}$ and $RMS_{1}S_{2}$ respectively. The C- PER of $RFS_{1}S_{2}$ and $RMS_{1}S_{2}$ were Significantly (P<.05) higher than that of the casein. 5) The FER of the casein, $RS_{1}S_{2}$, $RFS_{1}S_{2}$, and $RMS_{1}S_{2}$ were 0.37, 0.39, 0.43 and 0.39, respectively. The FER of $RFS_{1}S_{2}$ and $RMS_{1}S_{2}$ were also significantly (P<.05) higher than that of the casein. 6) The concentrations of hematocrit, hemoglobin, total protein and albumin in the serum of the rats of all groups were not significantly different among groups. 7) The storage stability test showed that the total plate count (TPC), the coliforms count and the bacterial spore count in the ingredients were quiet low. However, after 30 and 60 days storage, the count in $RFS_{1}S_{2}$ increased and were higher at room temperature than refrigerated temperature. 8) In the cost evaluation, the cost of the developed formulas was \1,826-2,626 / kg. This was less than that of the commercially prepared formula (\3,300-4,073 / kg) and that of the imported formula (\4,250-8,720 / kg).

본 연구는 우리나라 여대생들의 riboflavin (RF) 영양상태를 평가하기 위하여 서울거주 여대생 48명 (정상식이를 하는 학생 31명과 lacto-ovo vegetarian 인 학생 17명)을 대상으로 식이섭취조사, 임상검사, EGRAC 검사 및 소변검사를 실시하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 본 조사 대상 학생들은 동연령층에 대한 한국인 영양권장량에 비하여 열량섭취량은 낮고, 단백질 섭취량은 비슷하나 리보플라빈 섭취량은 높았다. 채식군의 학생들은 정상식이군에 비하여 열량과 단백질 섭취량은 낮았으나 리보플라빈 섭취량은 정상식이군과 비슷하였다. 2. 전 대상자들의 평균 EGRAC 값은 $1.24{\pm}0.03$이었으며, 정상식이군은 $1.19{\pm}0.04$, 채식군은 $1.32{\pm}0.06$으로 두 군의 평균값은 0.05수준에서 유의적 차이가 없었다. ERGAC값이 1.2이상인 대상자는 전 대상자 중 65%이었는데 정상식이군은 55%, 채식군은 82%이었다. 3. EGRAC값이 1.2이상인 대상자 중 18명에게 1일 5mg의 리보플라빈을 1주일간 투여한 후 재검사한 결과 모두 1.2이하로 감소하였다. 4. 상관분석 결과, 대상자들의 EGRAC값과 리보플라빈식이 섭취량 사이에는 유의적인 상관관계가 없었다. 이와 같은 결과가 나온 가능한 이유들에 대하여 고찰하였다. 이러한 결과들로 부터 본 조사 대상자들은 리보플라빈 섭취량은 한국인 영양권장량보다 높으나 생화학적 기능의 손상이 비교적 높은 비율로 존재함을 알 수 있다. 따라서 리보플라빈 식이섭취량이 낮은것으로 보고된 다른 집단들에 대하여 좀 더 집중적인 연구가 요청된다. 아직 우리나라 사람들을 대상으로 리보플라빈 식이섭취와 생화학적 결핍에 대하여 연구된 바가 적으므로 리보플라빈의 생화학적 결핍판정과 한국인의 RDA수준에 대하여 더 많은 연구가 요청된다.

수도 고단백 계통선발을 위한 미립내 질소함량 검정 방법을 첨부 검토하기 위하여 예비선발된 36계통 및 대조품종을 5가지 질소수준(0, 7.5, 15.0, 22.5, 30.0, kg/10a)에서 재배하여 그 현미를 Kjeldahl법, Dye binding법 및 Biurett법으로 분석하여 3가지 방법에 의한 분석치간의 상관을 검토하였으며 그 중 6개품종에 대하여 동일시료를 3가지 분석법으로 6회 반복한 분석치의 분산을 검토하였고 3가지 방법으로 시료 100점당 소요된 시약과 노력을 비교하였다. 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. D.B.C.법에 의한 분석치는 Biurett법에 의한 분석치보다 Kjeldahl법과의 상관이 높았으나 D.B.C. 법에서는 극도로 높은 질소수준에서와 극도로 낮은 질소수준에서의 분석치는 Kjeldahl법에 의한 분석치에 비하여 과대평가되는 경향이 있다. Biurett법은 비교적 오차가 커서 Kjeldahl 법과의 상관이 떨어지지만 모든 질소수준에서 평행적인 경향이었다. 2. 품종에 따라 시용된 질소수주에 대한 반응도 달랐지만 품종과 질소수준에 따라 3가지 분석방법의 반응도 달랐다. 3. 3가지 분석방법별 분석치의 변이계수를 비교하면 Biurett법이 가장 크며 다음은 D.B.C.법인데 Biurett법에서는 각질소수준에서 모두 높았지만 질소수준이 높아짐에 따라 변이계수도 커졌는데 Kjeldahl법이나 D.B.C.에서는 질소수준이 낮아짐에 따라 변이 계수가 커졌다. 4. 3가 분석방법에서 소요되는 약품과 노력을 조사하여 Kjeldahl법에 비하여 D.B.C.법이 현저하게 절약되며 D.B.C.법 보다 Biurett법은 더욱 절약될 수 있음을 알았다.

목 적 : 패브리병은 X-linked 지질 축적 질환으로 ${\alpha}$-galactosidase A (${\alpha}$-Gal A)의 결손으로 인해 스핑고당지질인 Gb3의 세포내 축적을 일으키는 병이다. 혈장 중 Gb3 측정은 패브리병 환자의 효소대체요법 후의 모니터링이나 진단에 임상적 의의가 크므로 ESI-MS/MS를 이용한 시료 전처리를 위한 노동력이 덜 들면서 간단, 신속, 고감도로 정량할 수 있는 혈장 중 Gb3분석법을 개발하고자 하였다. 방 법 : 혈장을 디옥산으로 50배 희석하여 vortex-mix 및 원심분리를 거쳐 Gb3의 추출 및 분리를 수행한다. 이 때 내부표준액인 C17:0 Gb3를 혈장에 처음부터 첨가한다. 희석과 원심분리된 혈장은 가드컬럼을 통하여 ESI-MS/MS의 다중성분 모니터링 모드에서 분석하여 내부표준액에 대한 8종 Gb3 isoform의 피크면적비를 이용하여 정량한다. 결 과 : 혈장의 바탕성분 하에서 8종의 Gb3 isoform이 완전히 잘 분리됨을 확인할 수 있었다. 혈장 중의 8종의 Gb3 isoform 중 50% 이상 차지하는 종류는 C16:0 Gb3 임이 확인되었다. Gb3 isoform이 직선성을 이루는 농도 범위는 0.001-1.0 ${\mu}g$/mL이었다. 검출한계(S/N=3)는 C16:0 Gb3의 경우 0.001 ${\mu}g$/mL 이었고 정량한계는 0.01 ${\mu}g$/mL 이었으며 회수율의 일내재현성(정확도 87-108%와 정밀도 7% 이하)과 일간재현성(정확도 87-110%와 정밀도 13% 이하)은 매우 양호 하였다. 결 론 : 본 연구에서 개발된 Gb3 분석법은 신속, 정확, 간편하게 패브리병의 1차 스크리닝이나 효소대체요법 전후의 모니터링 및 진단에 유용하게 적용될 수 있을 것이다.
