2012년 2월부터 11월까지 인천 지역에서 유통된 건고추 및 고춧가루 193건을 대상으로 아플라톡신 $B_1$과 오크라톡신 A의 오염도를 조사하였다. Immunoaffinity column 및 HPLC를 이용한 시험법은 모두 80% 이상의 회수율을 보였고, 아플라톡신 $B_1$ 및 오크라톡신 A의 검출한계는 각각 0.13 ${\mu}g/kg$, $0.30{\mu}g/kg$였다. 오염도 조사를 한 결과 아플라톡신 $B_1$은 17.1%의 검출율을 보였고 오크라톡신 A는 20.7%의 검출율을 보였으며, 아플라톡신 $B_1$의 검출농도는 0.14~9.67 ${\mu}g/kg$였고, 오크라톡신 A의 검출 농도는 0.31~3.31 ${\mu}g/kg$였다. 이는 우리나라 식품공전 상의 기준인 10 ${\mu}g/kg$(아플라톡신 $B_1$), 7 ${\mu}g/kg$(오크라톡신 A)보다는 낮은 수치로 비교적 안전한 수준이었다.

본 연구에서는 밀 시료에서 면역친화컬럼을 이용한 HPLC분석법으로 데옥시니발레놀을 분석함에 있어서 발생될 수 있는 측정 불확도를 GUM 지침에 따라 산정하였다. 분석과정에서의 불확도 요인은 시료량 측정, 최종 시료부피, 보관표준용액, 작업표준용액, 표준용액, 기기, 매질, 검량선 작성으로 구분하였다. 불확도 요인의 구성요인은 저울의 안정성, 분해능, 재현성, 표준물질의 순도, 분자량, 농도, 표준용액 희석, 검량선, 회수율 및 분석기기의 재현성 등이 작용하였다. 공시료에 데옥시니발레놀 300 ${\mu}g/kg$을 첨가하여 분석한 결과 $255.29{\pm}71.62$ ${\mu}g/kg$으로 측정되었다. 확장불확도는 합성표준불확도 35.81 ${\mu}g/kg$에 포함인자(k=2, 신뢰수준 95%)를 곱하여 산출하였다. 밀에서 데옥시니발레놀을 분석함에 있어 불확도에 영향을 주는 주요인자는 시료의 회수율과 검량선 작성인 것으로 파악되었다. 따라서 밀 시료에서 데옥시니발레놀 분석의 정밀성을 높이기 위해서는 회수율과 검량선 작성에 영향을 끼칠 수 있는 면역친화컬럼에 의한 시료의 정제과정과 표준물질의 희석과정에 주의를 기울이고 주기적으로 마이크로피펫을 교정하는 등 세심한 관리가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 탕액에 존재하는 제랄레논의 분석을 위한 HPLC법을 확립하고 탕액조제 시 한약재로부터의 제랄레논 이행률을 조사하였다. 한약재 (괄루인, 두충, 복분자)에 제랄레논을 임의의 농도로 오염시켜 수침 및 비수침 과정을 거친 후 상압가열 ($100^{\circ}C$, 3 h)과 고압가열 ($121^{\circ}C$, 1 h)하여 탕액을 조제한 다음 탕액과 한약재 잔류물로 분리하고 immunoaffinity column으로 정제하여 분석에 사용하였다. 가열처리를 하지 않은 탕액 제조 전 원료 한약재에 대한 회수율은 괄루인 83.7-95.5%, 두충 81.9-99.7%, 복분자 79.1-82.3%로 분석에 이용이 가능한 것으로 확인되었고, 3종의 한약재 중 회수율이 가장 좋은 두충을 선택하여 탕액을 조제한 후 탕액과 한약재 잔류물에 대한 회수율 측정한 결과 탕액에서는 68.4-83.7%, 한약재 잔류물에서는 72.9-80.3%로 원재료 보다는 낮은 수준으로 확인되었다. 한약재에서 탕액으로 제랄레논의 이행률은 한약재 원재료에 제랄레논을 임의의 농도로 오염시킨 후 탕액을 조제하여 분석하였으며, 그 결과 탕액에서는 제랄레논이 검출되지 않았고, 괄루인과 복분자 잔류물에서는 수침 시료의 경우 17.04-22.99%, 비수침 시료의 경우 10.17-18.33%의 제랄레논이 검출되었다. 그리고 두충 잔류물에서는 수침 시료의 경우 10.44-17.16%, 비수침 시료의 경우 12.42-17.75%가 검출되었다. 본 연구에서는 탕액에서 제랄레논이 검출되지 않아 이행률은 낮은 것으로 판단되나 보다 탕액 조제과정 중 첨가물에 의해 이행이 일어날 수 있는 가능성은 여전히 존재하기 때문에, 제랄레논을 포함한 곰팡이독소에 안전한 한약재의 확보를 위한 지속적인 노력이 필요하다. 또한, 유통 중인 한약재를 포함하여 조제포장되어 판매되는 탕액에 대해서도 지속적인 모니터링이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

In order to direct the form of the immune response in an antigen-specific manner, we constructed a fusion protein (OVA/IL12) that contained the T cell-dependent antigen, ovalbumin (OVA), covalently linked to murine interleukin-12 (IL-12). The OVA/IL12 protein was produced in a baculovirus expression system and was purified by anti-OVA immunoaffinity chromatography. The purified OVA/ILI2 protein displayed potent IL-12 bioactivity in an IL-12 proliferation assay. BALB/c mice immunized with the OVA/IL12 protein produced increased quantities of anti-OVA IgG2a antibody compared with mice immunized with recombinant OVA alone. Lymph node cells from the immunized mice with the OVA/IL12 protein produced large amounts of IFN-,Y when restimulated in vitro with OVA, while those from mice immunized with the OVA protein produced little or no IFN-.gamma.. In contrast, immunization with a mixture of OVA and free recombinant IL-12 also induced IFN-.gamma. production, which was not OVA-specific. These studies indicate that the OVA/IL12 fusion protein can induce OVA-specific, Th1-dominated immune responses, and that the covalent linkage of OVA and IL-12 confines the effect of IL-12 to OVA-specific cells.

Analysis of protein is often frustrated by the inability to isolate large amounts of purified protein from a native source. To overcome this problem, fusion protein expression systems such as pGEX system have been widely used. Using pGEX system, the desired protein could be easily obtained in a large amount in E. coli, and then the fusion protein could be used for the study of the function of the given protein. To analyze and purify the GST fusion protein, anti-GST antibody could be used as one of the system of choice. However, the production and characterization of monoclonal anti-GST antibody has not been studied extensively yet. To produce monoclonal anti-GST antibody, GST was purified from E. coli transformed with pGEX-cs, one of the pGEX system and was used as an antigen. The monoclonal antibody was produced by fusion of the immunized spleen cells with SP2-0 myeloma cells. The antibody was characterized by ELISA, western blotting, etc. The monoclonal antibody produced in this study (mAb-GSTA) showed strong and specific immunoreactivity against not only GST but also GST-fusion proteins. Also, mAb-GSTA was successfully used for the immunoaffinity purification of the GST ${\beta}$-Rc.-third intracellular-loop fusion protein. The results of the present study suggest that mAb-GSTA may be used for the identification and purification of GST fusion proteins.

Exosomes, known as nanoscale extracellular vesicles in the range of 30-150 nm, are known to contain clinically significant information. However, there is still insufficient information on exosomal membrane proteins for cancer diagnosis. In this work, we investigated the characteristics of the membrane proteins of exosomes shed by cultured breast cancer cell lines using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy and pre-activated alkanethiols modified sensor chips. The antibodies of breast cancer biomarkers such as MCU-16, EpCAM, CD24, ErbB2, and CA19-9 were immobilized on the pre-activated alkanethiols surfaces without any activation steps. The purified exosomes were loaded onto each antibody surface. The affinity rank of the antibody surfaces was decided by the relative capture efficiency factors for the exosomes. In addition, an antibody with a relative capture efficiency close to 100% was tested with exosome concentration levels of 10⁴/µl, 10⁵/µl, and 10⁶/µl for quantitative analysis.

Two isolectins (KML-IIU and the KML-IIL) were individually isolated from the previously reported Korean mistletoe lectin, KML-C, by using an immunoaffinity column. Molecular weights of the KML-IIU and the KML-IIL were 64 kDa and 60 kDa respectively. Both of the lectins were composed of heterogeneous A and B subunits linked with a disulfide bond, and showed the same carbohydrate-binding specificities for Gal and GalNAc. However, they are different not only in biophysical properties (glycosylation and amino acid compositions) but also bioactivities (cell killing and cytokine induction). The KML-IIL showed 17-145 times stronger in cytotoxicities to various human and mouse cancer cell lines than the KML-IIU. The KML-IIL also induced TNF-$\alpha$ secretion from mouse peritoneal macrophages 4.5 times better than the KML-IIU. The results demonstrated isolectins in Korean mistletoe were varied in bioactivities and the KML-IIL may be developed as an anti-cancer agent.

During 2011~2013, a total of 729 samples for 19 types of medicinal plant were collected from Seoulyekryungsi in Seoul, Korea, and investigated for the presence of aflatoxins. The samples were analyzed using immunoaffinity column cleanup and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a fluorescence detector after post-column derivatization. Aflatoxins were found in 124 out of the 729 analyzed samples: 65 containing aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), 24 with aflatoxin B2 (AFB2), 15 with aflatoxin G1 (AFG1), and 20 samples with aflatoxin G2 (AFG2). The ranges for positive samples were $0.1{\sim}404.7{\mu}g/kg$ for AFB1, $0.1{\sim}10.0{\mu}g/kg$ for AFB2, $0.1{\sim}635.3{\mu}g/kg$ for AFG1, $0.1{\sim}182.5{\mu}g/kg$ for AFG2, and $0.1{\sim}1,043.9{\mu}g/kg$ for total aflatoxins. Most of the medicinal plant samples (721, 98.9%) were below legal limits, but 8 samples exceeded the legal limits of 10 and $15{\mu}g/kg$ established by the Korean standard for AFB1 and total aflatoxins (the sum of AFB1, AFB2, AFG1 and AFG2), respectively.

Natural human epidermal growth factor (nhEGF) was purified from pregnant human urine by benzoic acid adsorption, DEAE-Sepharose ion exchange, and immunoaffinity chromatography. The purified nhEGF was further separated into four fractions using Bondapak C$_{18}$ HPLC system. Following characterization by Western blot analysis and double immu- nodiffusion, we found that each fraction corresponds to four derivatives of the nhEGF. For biological analysis of nhEGF, we optimized the labeling time and serum concentration for the incorporatioin of 5-bromo-2'-deoxy uridine (BrdU), a non-radioactive alternative for [$^{3}$H]-thymidine uptake, into NIH 3T3 cells. The DNA synthesis of NIH 3T3 cells was gradually increased at the nhEGF concentrations between 0.1 - 10 ng/ml in the Dulbecco's Modified Eagles Medium (DMEM) containing 0.2% Fetal calf serum (FCS). When we assayed the biological activity of four fractions, the activity of the second fraction was superior to that of the others. Based on the results from the HPLC analysis spiked with recombinant human epidermal growth factor (rhEGF) and amino acid sequencing, we concluded that the second fraction was nhEGF and the other three fractions were the derivatives of nhEGF. In addition, the proportion of nhEGF was approximately 46% is compared with that of the other three derivatives.

The electrophoretic patterns of plasma membrane surface proteins of normal rat liver cells and rat hepatomas were compared in 10% non-denaturing and 7-15% gradient non-denaturing gel. Chemical carcinogens, 2-Me DAB (2-methyl-4-dimethylaminoazobenzene) and DENA (diethylnitrosamine), were used to induce hepatoma in rats. One protein which disappeared in hepatoma was identified in normal rat liver by non-denaturing gel electrophoresis. Rabbit antisera were raised against this specific protein, and the protein was purified by Sephacryl S-200 column and immunoaffinity chromatography using the purified antibody. The purified protein showed two bands of molecular weights approximately 50 $kD_{\alpha}$ and 52 $kD_{\alpha}$ by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, which reacted specifically with the antibody. However only one band was observed in non-denaturing gel and also in isoelectric focusing with a pI value of 6.6. This study showed the existence of an unique protein on the plasma membrane surface of normal rat liver cells which disappeared in rat hepatomas induced by chemical carcinogens.
