Prickly pear extract (PPE) was fermented by Lactobacillus rhamnosus LS at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 days. To improve the physicochemical properties of fermented PPE, it was fortified with food polysaccharides (0.2 %) or seaweed calcium before lactic acid fermentation. The viable cell counts, flow behavior, titratable acidity and color stability of fermented PPE were evaluated during 4 weeks of cold storage. Addition of xanthan gum or glucomannan increased the apparent viscosity and acid production, viable cell counts and red color of PPE were also well maintained during the cold storage. However, fermenting PPE with gellan gum resulted in a decrease in relative absorbance, indicating lower color stability. In particular, PPE fortified with carrageenan or alginic acid showed reduced acid production and lower viable cell counts. Addition of seaweed calcium at a 0.1 % level had positive effects on color stability, and helped maintain viable cell counts of 4.1 ${\times}$ 10$^{9}$ CFU/mL. This study demonstrated that xanthan gum could be used as a good thickening agent and stabilizer for retaining viable cell counts and red color during the cold storage in PPE fermented by lactic acid bacteria.

국내 시판중인 인스턴트 커피에서 다당류를 추출하여 새로운 면역 활성 물질을 확인하고자 하였다. 시판중인 인스턴트 커피를 구입하여 냉수추출 후, 에탄올 침전과 투석을 통하여 약 24%의 높은 수율로 다당류(ICP-0)를 얻을 수 있었다. ICP-0은 중성당 89.9%, 산성당 10.1%로 이루어진 다당체로써, 구성 성분으로는 갈락토스 55.5%, 만노스 25.7%와 소량의 아라비노스, 람노스 등으로 이루어진 것을 확인하였으며, 갈락토만난(galactomannan)이나 팩틴 다당류(pectic polysaccharide)가 혼합된 구조일 것이라고 추정되었다. 인스턴트 커피 유래 ICP-0에 대하여 대식세포 자극에 대한 세포증식능을 확인한 결과, NC 대비 유의적으로 높은 증식활성을 보였으며, IL-6, IL-12 및 TNF-${\alpha}$의 경우, $10{\mu}g/mL$에서도 NC 대비 우수한 사이토카인 분비 유도능을 보임이 확인되었다. 또한 NO, ROS를 분석한 결과에서도 NO의 경우 $10{\mu}g/mL$ 이상에서 NC 대비 양호한 활성을 보여 주었다. ICP-0에 대하여 2차 면역기관 중 하나인 비장세포상의 증식능을 확인한 결과, NC 대비 115% 정도 증식하는 것이 확인되어 면역세포를 직접 증진시키는 마이토겐 활성이 있음을 나타내었다. 인스턴트 커피 유래 ICP-0가 장관 내 분포되어 있는 Peyer's patch를 경유하여 장관면역에 공헌할 수 있는지 여부를 확인한 결과, NC 대비 유의적으로 골수세포의 증식능을 확인하였으며 GM-CSF와 같은 관련 사이토카인의 분비 유도가 확인되었다. 이상의 결과는 시판 인스턴트 커피로부터 분리한 다당류가 대식세포의 기능과 장관면역계를 증진시킬 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다.

The strain A49, which produces a new type of extracellular polysaccharide was isolated from soil samples. From morphological, physiological and biochemical tests, the strain A49 was identified as a Bacillus polymyxa and named Bacillus polymyxa A49. Bacillus polymyxa A49 was found to produce a highly viscous extracellular polysaccharide when grown aerobically in a medium containing glucose as the sole source of carbon. The polysaccharide (A49 POL) showed a homogeneous pattern on gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and its molecular weight was estimated to be about 1.6 mega dalton (mDa). The FT-IR spectrum of A49-POL revealed typical characteristics of polysaccharides. As a result of investigations with HPLC and carbozole assay, A49-POL was found to consist of L-fucose, D-galactose, D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-glucuronic acid, with the molar ratio of these sugars being approximately 1:2:7:50:12. Rheological analysis of A49 POL revealed that it is pseudoplastic and has a higher apparent viscosity at dilute concentrations than does xanthan gum. The consistancy factor of A49 POL was found to be higher, and the flow index of A49 POL lower, than xanthan gum. Its apparent viscosity was comparatively unstable at various temperatures. the A49 POL showed the highest apparent viscosity at pH 3. When salts were added to A49 POL solution, the solution was compatible with up to 10% KCl, 35% NaCl, 55% $CaCl_2$, 55% $MgCl_2$, 55% $K_2HPO_4$, and 110% $Ca({NO_3})_2$, respectively.

Anti-coagulant activities of 25 species of medicinal plants which have been related to "blood" in ethnobotany, were evaluated by plasma recalcification time test. Among these, Artemisiae Herba showed the strongest activity. Its anti-clotting component was purified by using DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-75, and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography. Its active compound has an average molecular weight of approximately $10^{4}$ and it was turned to be an acidic polysaccharide composed of galacturonic acid and rhamnose (7 : 2) by chemical analysis and spectral data.

For the development of a biocompatible nano-scale drug carrier. hydrophilic polysaccharide pullulan was hydrophobized by the conjugation with fatty acid. The synthesized polymers were characterized by the measurements of fourier transform infrared (FT -IR) spectroscopy and 1H -nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In aqueous solution. hydrophobically modified puliulan was self-assembled and structured into the core-shell type nanoparticles. (omitted)

참당귀(Angelica gigas Nakai) 현탁세포의 면역 증강성 다당의 생산을 증진시키기 위하여 초기 당농도와 생장조절제인 2,4-D의 농도를 변화시켰다. 당의 농도를 높일수록 세포의 생장과 ECP의 생산은 각각 1.6배, 1.1배 증가하여 효과적이었다. 2,4-D는 첨가하지 않은 것이 세포의 생장이 대조군에 비해 1.2배 높았지만, ECP의 생산의 경우 2mg/L 2,4-D를 첨가한 경우 대조군에 비해 10% 이상 더 생산되었다. 또한 배양 중 여러 가지의 elicitor를 첨가함으로써 ECP의 생산을 증진시키기 위하여 fungal elicitor들을 처리한 결과 Verticillium dahliae 90 mg/L을 배양 4일째에 처리한 경우 세포의 생장을 다소 저해시킨 반면, ECP 생산량이 1.7배나 증가함을 확인하였다.

Soy sauce is one of the representatives of traditional fermented foods in Korea. However, studies on soy sauce are relatively insufficient in Korea compared to Japan. In this study, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of polysaccharides were measured by polysaccharides isolated from two different soy sauces, Korean and Japanese (KSS-0 and JSS-0). KSS-0 was purified into two fractions using gel chromatography and named them as KSS-I and KSS-II. To investigate the antioxidant activity of the polysaccharides, we measured the polyphenol content and radical scavenging activity using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS). To investigate the anti-inflammatory activity of polysaccharides, we used RAW 264.7 macrophage cells and induced inflammation using lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Then, we measured levels of inflammatory mediators such as nitric oxide (NO) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α. Among the four polysaccharides, KSS-II showed the highest antioxidant activity and had good anti-inflammatory activity; KSS-II decreased inflammatory mediators in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, the polysaccharide isolated from Korean soy sauce (KSS-II) showed better anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory activities than polysaccharides isolated from Japanese soy sauce, and may be useful as substances for functional foods.

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of invasive infection in young infants and older adults. There are currently 90 capsular serotypes identified and 23 serotypes (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6B, 7F, 8, 9N, 9V, 10A, 11A, 12F, 14, 15B, 17F, 18C, 19F, 19A, 20, 22F, 23F, and 33F) are responsible for about 90% of invasive disease. Among the more than 90 different S. pneumoniae serotypes, serotype 19A is globally very prevalent. A simplified purification procedure including adjustment of cell lysate pH to 4.5, fractionation with 50. 80% ethanol, and dialysis rendered capsular polysaccharide (CPS) in a yield of $31.32{\pm}3.11$ mg from 1 l culture (75% recovery after lyses). The product contained only 69.6 ${\mu}g$ of protein (99.78% purity) and 0.8mg (sum of the precipitants from 50~60%, 60~70%, and 70~80%) of nucleic acid (97.45% purity). The purified CPS was conjugated with bovine serum albumin; the product size ranged from 100 to 180 kDa.
