For isolation of the CMCase gene of the alkalophilic Bacillus sp. strain N-4 to analyze their genetic information for the multicomponents of the cellulase, Bscherichia coli K12 and plasmid DNA pBR322 was used as host-vector system. After the digestion of purified chromosomal DNA and plasmid DNA pBR322 with HindIII, these were ligated. The ligated DND were transformed into Escherichia coli, and recombinant plasmid 107 carried the gene coding for CMCase was constructed. The CMCase produced by Escherichia coli cells containing plasmid DNA pYBC107 was found in the cells as intracellular enzyme and nearly 60% of the total CMCase activity was localized in cellular fraction. Also, the optimum pH for the reaction of CMCase produced by Escherichia coli was appeared at pH .8.0 and the enzyme was stable between pH 7.0 and pH 8.0.

Commercial powdered soups, such as potato soup(PS), corn soup(CS), and chicken-herb soup(CHS), were gamma-irradiated at 0, 1, 5 and 10 kGy and subjected to physicochemical evaluation and identification trials by analyzing photostimulated luminescence(PSL), electron spin resonance(ESR), and thermoluminescence(TL). The changes in moisture content and pH of soup samples were negligible upon irradiation. The Hunter's color determinations showed that lightness (L value) decreased and yellowness (b value) increased as the irradiation dose increased in PS sample. The viscosity of irradiated samples was reduced in the order of PS, CS and CHS. The analyses of PSL, ESR and TL were applicable to the identification of irradiated powdered-soups at more than 1 kGy by detecting PSL photon counts/60 sec(over 5000), radiation-induced multicomponents-ESR signal, and typical TL glow curve at $150-250^{\circ}C$.

In this study, quantitative analysis was developed using HPLC/UVD for the quality evaluation of Scutellariae Radix. For quantitative analysis, six major bioactive compounds were assessed. The separation conditions employed for HPLC/UVD were optimized using Phenomenex $C_{18}$ column ($250{\times}4.6$ mm, 5 ${\mu}m$) with a gradient of solvent A (1% acetic acid of $H_2O$) and solvent B (acetonitrile : methanol : acetic acid = 70 : 30 : 1) as the mobile phase at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min and a detection wavelength of 275 nm. These methods were fully validated with respect to linearity, accuracy, precision and recovery. The HPLC/UVD method was applied successfully to the quantification of six major compounds in the extract of Scutellariae Radix. The results indicate that the established HPLC/UVD method is suitable for the quantitative analysis and quality control of multicomponents in Scutellariae Radix.

Adsorption of metal elements onto illite and halloysite was investigated at $25^{\circ}C$ using pollutant water collected from the gold-bearing metal mine. Incipient solution of pH 3.19 was reacted with clay minerals as a function of time: 10 minute, 30 minute, 1 hour, 12 hour, 24 hour, 1 day, 2 day, 1 week, and 2 week. Twenty-seven cations and six anions from solutions were analyzed by AAs (atomic absorption spectrometer), ICP(induced-coupled plasma), and IC (ion chromatography). Speciation and saturation index of solutions were calculated by WATEQ4F and MINTEQA2 codes, indicating that most of metal ions exist as free ions and that there is little difference in chemical species and relative abundances between initial solution and reacted solutions. The adsorption results showed that the adsorption extent of elements varies depending on mineral types and reaction time. As for illite, adsorption after 1 hour-reaction occurs in the order of As>Pb>Ge>Li>Co, Pb, Cr, Ba>Cs for trace elements and Fe>K>Na>Mn>Al>Ca>Si for major elements, respectively. As for halloysite, adsorption after 1 hour-reaction occurs in the order of Cu>Pb>Li>Ge>Cr>Zn>As>Ba>Ti>Cd>Co for trace elements and Fe>K>Mn>Ca>Al>Na>Si for major elements, respectively. After 2 week-reaction, the adsorption occurs in the order of Cu>As>Zn>Li>Ge>Co>Ti>Ba>Ni>Pb>Cr>Cd>Se for trace elements and Fe>K>Mn>Al, Mg>Ca>Na, Si for major elements, respectively. No significant adsorption as well as selectivity was found for anions. Although halloysite has a 1:1 layer structure, its capacity of adsorption is greater than that of illite with 2:1 structure, probably due to its peculiar mineralogical characteristics. According to FTIR (Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) results, there was no shift in the OH-stretching bond for illite, but the ν1 bond at 3695 cm-1 for halloysite was found to be stronger. In the viewpoint of adsorption, illite is characterized by an inner-sphere complex, whereas halloysite by an outer-sphere complex, respectively. Initial ion activity and dissociation constant of metal elements are regarded as the main factors that control the adsorption behaviors in a natural system containing multicomponents at the acidic condition.

Background: Dried and red ginseng are well-known types of processed ginseng and are widely used as healthy food. The dried and red ginseng quality may vary with the storage period of raw ginseng. Therefore, herein, the effect of the storage period of fresh ginseng on processed ginseng quality was evaluated through multicomponent quantification with statistical analysis. Methods: A method based on ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled to triple quadrupole mass spectrometry in multiple-reaction monitoring mode (UPLC-MRM-MS) was developed for quantitation of ginsenosides and oligosaccharides in dried and red ginseng. Principal component analysis and partial least squares discriminant analysis were conducted to evaluate the dynamic distributions of ginsenosides and oligosaccharides after different storage periods. Results: Eighteen PPD, PPT and OLE ginsenosides and nine reducing and nonreducing oligosaccharides were identified and quantified. With storage period extension, the ginsenoside content in the processed ginseng increased slightly in the first 2 weeks and decreased gradually in the following 9 weeks. The content of reducing oligosaccharides decreased continuously as storage time extending, while that of the nonreducing oligosaccharides increased. Chemical conversions occurred during storage, based on which potential chemical markers for the storage period evaluation of fresh ginseng were screened. Conclusion: According to ginsenoside and oligosaccharide distributions, it was found that the optimal storage period was 2 weeks and that the storage period of fresh ginseng should not exceed 4 weeks at 0 ℃. This study provides deep insights into the quality control of processed ginseng and comprehensive factors for storage of raw ginseng.

The objective of this study is to assess feasibility of simultaneous analysis for trace multi-components odorous and volatile organic compounds using a Triple-bed adsorbent tube with a thermal desorber and GC-MS. Triple-bed adsorbent tube is 3 bed packed Tenax-TA with small amount of Carbopack B and Carbosieve SIII in order of adsorption strength in a tube. The operating conditions of GC-MS was possibly able to and effectively detect high volatile and low molecular weight compounds at the mass range of 20~350 m/z using a below impurity 1ppm of Helium carrier gas, of which quantitatively analyzed by target ion extracts. According to the experiment, $C_1{\sim}C_5$ of 14 components; sulfur containing compounds(2), ketones(2), alcohols(4) and aldehydes(6) were simultaneously analyzed with recoveries of 99%, and good repeatability and linearity. High volatile and low molecular weight compounds such as methyl alcohol and acetaldehyde can be safely quantified with high recovery at a condition of 50mL/min of flow rate, below 2L of adsorption volume, and 45% of relative humidity. Target ion extract can also simultaneously quantify multicomponents with odorous and volatile organic compounds in an occasion of piled up two peaks.
