This manuscript reports on compared color evolution about phase transformation of ${\alpha}-FeOOH@SiO_2$ and ${\beta}-FeOOH@SiO_2$ pigments. Prepared ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH were coated with silica for enhancing thermal properties and coloration of both samples. To study phase and color of ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH, we prepared nano sized iron oxide hydroxide pigments which were coated with $SiO_2$ using tetraethylorthosilicate and cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide as a surface modifier. The silica-coated both samples were calcined at high temperatures (300, 700 and $1000^{\circ}C$) and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, CIE $L^*a^*b^*$ color parameter measurements, transmission electron microscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy. The yellow ${\alpha}$-FeOOH and ${\beta}$-FeOOH was transformed to ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ with red, brown at 300, $700^{\circ}C$, respectively.

We investigated radical scavenging effects and protective activities of fucoidan and alginic acid, active polysaccharide components from brown seaweeds, against peroxyl radical-induced oxidative stress under in vitro and cellular system. Fucoidan exerted strong radical scavenging effects against nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide anion $(O_2)$. On the other hand, alginic acid did not show inhibitory activity against NO and relatively weak $O_2{^-}$ scavenging effect. Additionally, alginic acid exhibited higher hydroxyl scavenging activity than fucoidan. Both fucoidan and alginic acid significantly enhanced cell viability against oxidative stress induced by 2,2'-azobis(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AAPH). At $1000{\mu}g/mL$ concentration of fucoidan and alginic acid, the viability was increased from 16.4% to 85.9% and 67.7%, respectively. In addition, fucoidan and alginic acid ameliorated the lipid peroxidation in LLC-PK1 cell induced by AAPH in a dose-dependent manner. In particular, fucoidan showed stronger inhibitory effect than alginic acid in the cellular system. The present study suggests that fucoidan and alginic acid may be promising antioxidants against oxidative stress induced by free radicals.

This study was conducted to research the formation, color development and application for colored glazes of the spinel solid solutions of the green pigment. On specimens prepared by calcining the oxide and basic carbonate mixture at 1250℃ for 1.5 hour, the x-ray analysis, measurement of reflectance and the test of their stabiality as a glaze pigment were carried out. The results are summarized as follows 1) Each sample is composed of single spinel and not of mixture of spinel. 2) Formation of continuous soild solution, except for a few instances, pertaining to Vegard's law was confirmed by means of the x-ray analysis. 3) The more difference between absorption and reflectance lies, the lighter colors are. When the absorption occurs at the high-reflectance, the excitation purity becomes low. On the contrary when the absorption takes place at the low-reflectance, the excitation purity becomes low. On the contrary when the absorption takes place at the low-reflectance, the excitation purity is higher. 4) Colors obtained in the CdO-MgO-Cr2O3-Al2O3 system, as the amounts of Al3+ increased, change from green through brown to pink, and the absorption peak shifts towards violet region. 5) An increase in Co2+ in the CoO-MgO-Cr2O3-Al2O3 system, changes the color from blue green to dark blue. The excitation purity is higher, and the absorption peak shifts toward regions. 6) Colors are green in the NiO-MgO-Cr2O3 and CdO-MgO-Cr2O3 systems in general, but in the ZnO-MgO-Cr2O3 system brillant hue is not obtained. 70 According to the results of the colored glaze test, the spinels turn outto be stable as brilliant glaze pigment in the calcium-magnesia glaze.

Anti-inflammatory potential of the enzymatic extract prepared by Kojizyme (ECK), a component of brown seaweeds Ecklonia cava (Alariaceae, Phaeophyta) in vivo was investigated. For the application of mouse ear edema model, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) was used, a topical inducer of a long-lasting inflammatory response. Our results demonstrated that ECK inhibited ear edema when topically applied to mouse ear skin. In histological evaluation, the inhibition activity of ECK on TPA-induced inflammation is similar to that of dexamethasone, although less strong. In addition, the mRNA expression levels of IL-$1{\beta}$, IFN-$\gamma$, TNF-$\alpha$, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) and the immunoreactivity to inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and COX2 expressed mainly in inflammatory cells were down-regulated by ECK. These results indicate that ECK has anti-inflammatory effects through the inhibition of Th1 cytokines and 2 inducers of inflammation in TPA-induced ear skin edema.

Laminaria japonica is a type of brown algae widely consumed in Asian countries and contains many essential nutrients and exhibits anti-obesity, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects. In this study, the antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects of a Laminaria japonica water extract (LJE) were investigated using an in vitro model. Mean total polyphenol content of LJE was 2.16±0.11 ㎍ GAE/mg, and LJE dose-dependently inhibited ABTS radical activity but did not scavenge DPPH radicals. In addition, LJE enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production and upregulated the mRNA expressions of proinflammatory cytokines (i.e., tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6) in RAW 264.7 cells. On the other hand, LJE inhibited NO production and downregulated proinflammatory cytokine mRNA levels in endotoxin-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Thus, our data show that LJE has moderate antioxidant activity and biphasic immunomodulatory effects on RAW 264.7 cells. In summary, the study indicates that LJE has potential therapeutic use as a novel biphasic immuno-modulator.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the color stability, solubility, and surface characteristics of 3 calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) after immersion in different solutions. Materials and Methods: ProRoot white mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), Biodentine, and Endosequence Root Repair Material (ERRM) were placed in cylindrical molds and stored at 37℃ for 24 hours. Each specimen was immersed in distilled water, 5% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 2% chlorhexidine, or 0.1% octenidine hydrochloride (OCT) for 24 hours. Color changes were measured with a spectrophotometer. Solubility was determined using an analytical balance with 10^-5 g accuracy. The surface characteristics were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. Data were analyzed using 2-way analysis of variance, the Tukey test, and the paired t-test. Results: MTA exhibited significant discoloration in contact with NaOCl (p < 0.05). White precipitation occurred on the surfaces of Biodentine and ERRM after contact with the solutions, and none of the materials presented dark brown discoloration. All materials showed significant solubility after immersion in the solutions (p < 0.05), irrespective of the solution type (p > 0.05). The surface topography and elemental composition of the samples showed different patterns of crystal formation and precipitation depending on the solution type. Conclusions: All materials presented some amount of solubility and showed crystal precipitation after contact with the solutions. Biodentine and ERRM are suitable alternatives to ProRoot MTA as they do not exhibit discoloration. The use of OCT can be considered safe for CSCs.

심해저 표층 퇴적물 중 주원소, 미량원소, 희토류 원소의 수직 함량분포 및 변화의 원인을 구명하기 위해 북동 태평양 클라리온-클리퍼톤 균열대(Clarion-Cliperton fracture zone, C-C 지역) 중남부에 위치한 한국심해환경연구(Korea Deep-sea Environmental Study, KODES) 지역에서 다중 주상 및 상자형 퇴적물 채취기를 이용해 주상시료 6개를 채취 분석했다. KODES 지역 주상 시료는 갈색인 Unit I과 연갈색인 Unit II로 구분되며, Unit I은 함수량이 높은 준액상층(peneliquid layer)인 반면 Unit II는 상대적으로 고화가 진행된 층이다. 두 Unit 간 주원소, 희토류 원소 그리고 Cu, Sr, Rb 등 원소는 함량 차이는 적으나 Mn, Ni, Co 등 원소는 Unit II에 비해 Unit I에서 함량이 2~3배 높다. R-형 요인 분석결과 연구지역 퇴적물은 Al-Ti-K-Mg-Fe-Rb-Ce 등으로 구성된 규산염 상, Ca-P-Cu-Sr-3+REEs(Trivalent Rare Earth Elements)로 구성된 인회석 상, 그리고 Mn-Ni-Co로 구성된 망간산화물 상으로 구분되는데, 규산염 상과 인회석 상은 두 Unit 간 요인점수가 큰 차이를 보이지 않는 반면 망간산화물 상은 Unit I에서 요인점수가 높다. 한편, 두 Unit는 Ni/Cu 비에 의해 구분되는데, Unit I의 Ni/Cu 비가 Unit II보다 2배 높다. 이것은 미세환원환경에서 재동된 후 준액상층인 Unit I에 산화물로 재침전된 Ni, 그라고 유기물과 함께 해저면으로 공급된 후 Unit I에서 유기물이 분해되면서 재동되어 인회석에 포함된 Cu 의 지화학적 거동 차이에 기인한 것으로 해석된다.

쌀의 돌연변이 억제초과를 검토하기 위해 여러 돌연변이 유발원(3-amino-1,4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido [4,3-b]indole(Trp-P-1), 3-amino-1-methyl-5H-pyrido [4,3-b]indole(Trp-P-2), sodium azide(SA), 2-nitrofluorene(2NF), mitomycin C(MMC), aflatoxin $B_1(AFB_1)$ 및 4-nitroquinoline oxide(4-NQO))에 대한 쌀 추출물들의 억제효과를 Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay, SOS chromotest 및 spore rec-assay로 조사하였다. S. typhimurium TA 98 및 TA 100을 이용한 Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay에서 현미(일품벼) 메탄올 추출물이 핵산, 클로로포름 및 물 추출물 보다 억제효과가 크게 나타났다. 메탄올 추출물의 경우, 간접변이원(Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2 및 $AFB_1$)에 대한 억제효과가 약 85% 이상으로써, 직접변이원(4-NQO, 2NF)에 대한 효과 보다 크게 나타났다. 메탄올 추출물은 E. coli PQ37을 이용한 SOS chromotest에서도 Trp-P-1, Trp-P-2, $AFB_1$ 및 4-NQO에 의한 SOS유도에 대해 $77.6{\sim}88.9%$의 억제작용을 나타내었고, B. subtilis $H17(rec^+)$과 $M45(rec^-)$를 사용한 spore recassay에서도 양성대조구인 $AFB_1$ 및 MMC에 의한 저지대의 차이를 감소시켜 억제작용을 나타내었다. 현미(일품벼)의 메탄올 추출물은 농도가 증가함에 따라 돌연변이 억제효과가 증가하였으나, 농도가 5 mg/plate(5%) 이상에서는 억제효과가 약 90%로 일정하였다. 쌀 품종별 메탄올 추출물의 억제효과는 조사된 11개 품종 모두에게서 나타나, 직접변이원인 2NF에 대해 $4.1{\sim}75.2%$의 억제를, 간접 변이원인 Trp-P-1에 대해 $99.5{\sim}100.2%$의 억제를 나타내었다. 백미와 현미(일품벼)간의 돌연변이 억제효과를 비교해 볼 경우, Trp-P-1 및 Trp-P-2에 의한 변이에 대해서는 차이가 없었으나(p>0.05), 4-NQO에 의한 변이에 대해서는 현미의 효과가 높았다(p<0.05).
