The present study aimed to investigate the comparative evaluation of pharmacological efficacy between sulfasalazine alone and combination with herbal medicine on dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced UC in mice. Balb/c mice received 5% DSS in drinking water for 7 days to induce colitis. Animals were divided into five groups (n = 9): group I-normal group, group II-DSS control group, group III-DSS + sulfasalazine (30 mg/kg), group IV-DSS + sulfasalazine (60 mg/kg), group V-DSS + sulfasalazine (30 mg/kg) + Radish Extract mixture (30 mg /kg) (SRE). DSS-treated mice developed symptoms similar to those of human UC, such as severe bloody diarrhea and weight loss. SRE supplementation, as well as sulfasalazine, suppressed colonic length and mucosal inflammatory infiltration. In addition, SRE treatment significantly reduced the expression of pro-inflammatory signaling moleculesthrough suppression both mitogen-activated protein kinases(MAPK) and nuclear factor-kappa B ($NF-{\kappa}B$) signaling pathways, and prevented the apoptosis of colon. Moreover, SRE administration significantly led to the up-regulation of anti-oxidant enzyme including SOD and Catalase. This is the first report that Radish extract mixture combined with sulfasalazine protects against experimental UC via the inhibition of both inflammation and apoptosis, very similar to the standard-of-care sulfasalazine.

유과의 품질을 향상과 기능성 부여를 목적으로 감귤과피(0, 2, 4 및 6%)를 첨가하여 제조한 유과의 품질특성을 조사하였다. 팽화율은 대조구(1,740%)보다 첨가구(855~l,517%)에서 낮았다. 감귤과피의 첨가량이 증가할수록 경도는 증가한 반면 아삭아삭한 정도는 감소하였으나 전통유과의 텍스쳐 범위에 속하였다. 색상은 대조구(L*값 70, a*값 3.30, b*값 12.6)의 경우는 백색을 띄었으나 첨가구(L*값 63.3~49.9, a*값 10.6~17.5, b*값 12.6~56.4)는 연황~황색을 띄었다. 감귤과피를 첨가한 유과의 carotenoid, hesperidin 및 naringin의 함량은 각각 0.18~0.5lmg%, 36.55~101.60mg%, 24.65~70.8lmg%범위였다. 관능검사에 의하여 펑가된 색상에 대한 기호도 및 종합적 기호도는 감글 과피륵 4% 첨가한 유과에서 가장 양호하였으며 감귤의 향긋한 냄새가 있었다. 그러나 대조구와 첨가 구간의 단맛과 신맛은 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다.

Arthrobacter chlorophenolicus A6 possesses several monooxygenases (CphC-I, CphC-II, and CphB) that can catalyze the transformation of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) to hydroxylated intermediates in the initial steps of substrate metabolism. The corresponding genes of the monooxygenases were cloned, and the competent cells were transformed with these recombinant plasmids. Although CphC-II and CphB were expressed as insoluble forms, CphC-I was successfully expressed as a soluble form and isolated by purification. The specific activity of the purified CphC-I was analyzed by using 4-CP, 4-chlorocatechol (4-CC), and catechol (CAT) as substrates. The specific activities for 4-CP, 4-CC, and CAT were determined to be 0.312 U/mg, 0.462 U/mg, 0.246 U/mg, respectively. The results of this study indicated that CphC-I is able to catalyze the degradation of 4-CC and CAT in addition to 4-CP, which is a primary substrate. This research is expected to provide the fundamental information for the development of an eco-friendly biochemical degradation of aromatic hydrocarbons.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by immune dysregulation. Meanwhile, the supernatant of lactic acid bacteria (SL) was recently reported to have anti-inflammatory effects. In addition, HaCaT keratinocytes stimulated by tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) are widely used for studying AD-like responses. In this study, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of SL from lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on TNF-α/IFN-γ-induced HaCaT keratinocytes, and then we investigated the strains' probiotic properties. SL was noncytotoxic and regulated chemokines (macrophage-derived chemokine (MDC) and thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC)) and cytokines (interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-25, and IL-33) in TNF-α/IFN-γ-induced HaCaT keratinocytes. SL from Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus MG4644, Lacticaseibacillus paracasei MG4693, and Lactococcus lactis MG5474 decreased the phosphorylation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). Furthermore, the safety of the three strains was demonstrated via hemolysis, bile salt hydrolase (BSH) activity, and toxicity tests, and the stability was confirmed under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Therefore, L. rhamnosus MG4644, L. paracasei MG4693, and Lc. lactis MG5474 have potential applications in functional food as they are stable and safe for intestinal epithelial cells and could improve atopic inflammation.

생물반응기를 이용한 가시오갈피 부정근 배양시에 jasmonic acid를 농도별 (0, 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 03, 0.5 mg/L)로 처리하여 부정근의 생장과 eleutheroside류 생산과의 관계를 조사하였다. Jasmonic acid 처리농도별 부정근의 생장은 무처리구에서 4.6 g Dry weight (DW)/L로 가장 높았으며 jasmonic acid 농도가 증가할수록 부정근 생장은 감소하였다. 그러나 eleutheroside B와 E의 함량은 jasmonic acid 농도가 높을수록 증가하여 0.5 mg/L 처리구에서 각각 $476.3{\mu}g/g\;DW$, $676.0{\mu}g/g\;DW$로 생산량이 가장 많았다. 반면에 eleutheroside $E_1$은 0.01 mg/L 처리구에서 $46.1{\mu}g/g\;DW$로 생산량이 가장 많았다. 배지 1L당 eleutheroside류의 총생산량은 0.01 mg/L 처리구에서 $2468.6{\mu}g/L$를 생산하여 가장 우수하였다. 0.1 mg/L의 jasmonic acid 처리 후 10일간 eleutheroside류의 함량을 조사한 결과 eleutheroside B는 jasmonic acid처리 후 6일째, eleutheroside E는 처리 후 8일째, eleutheroside $E_1$은 처리 후 4일째 각각 가장 많은 생산량을 보여 주었다.

The effects of medium, hormones, and PFP on the proliferation of red callus in leaf tissue cultures of Garden orach(Atriplex hortensis L.) was investigated. As a result,88% of leaf tissues formed eallus on MS nledium containing 2mg/$\ell$ 2,4-D. Fresh weight of callus was higher on MS medium than on Bsand NN media. It was also found that 2, 4-D was more effective than Dicamba and Picloram. The op-timum concentrations of hormones for callus proliferation depended on culture media. Isolated red cal-lus grew markedly both on MS medium supplemented with 1-2mg/$\ell$ 2, 4-D and Bs medium contain-ing 2-4111g/$\ell$ 2,4D. Callus proliferated on B5 and NN media containing Dicabma Img/$\ell$ as well as onthe same media containing 2mg/$\ell$ Picioram. The addition of PFP concentrations of 2, 5, and 40mg/ $\ell$rcspectiely to culture medium caused increase of callus fresh weight, especially under light condition.

The effects of the heat-treatment temperature on the carbon (C) substitution amount, full width at half maximum (FWHM) value, critical temperature ($T_c$), critical current density ($J_c$) have been investigated for 10 wt % malic acid ($C_4H_6O_5$)-doped $MgB_2/Fe$ wires. All the samples were fabricated by the in-situ powder-in-tube (PIT) method and heat-treated within a temperature range of $650^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. As the heat-treatment temperature increased, it seemed that the lattice distortion was increased by a more active C substitution into the boron sites from the malic acid addition. These increased electron scattering defects seemed to enhance the $J_c-H$ properties in spite of an improvement in the crystallinity, such as a decrease of the FWHM value and an increase of the $T_c$. Compared to the un-doped wire heat-treated at $650^{\circ}C$ for 30 min, the $J_c$ was enhanced by the C doping in a high-field regime. The wire heat-treated at $900^{\circ}C$ resulted in a higher magnetic $J_c$ of approximately $10^4\;A/cm^2$ at 5 K and 8 T.

본 연구에서는 액상칼슘을 첨가하여 김치 숙성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 그 결과 액상칼슘 첨가구들에서 숙성 중 pH감소가 지연되었고 산도는 더 낮게 나타났으며 액상칼슘 $3.5\%$ (v/w)첨가구보다 $7.0\%$ (v/w)첨가구에서 더 효과적이였다. 총균수 및 젖산균수를 조사한 결과 숙성 8일째까지 액상칼슘 첨가구들이 낮게 나타났으나 8일 이후에는 더 많은 수를 나타내었다. 모든 구간에서 L값과 b값은 조금씩 감소하였으며 a값은 증가하는 경향으로 나타났다. 대조구의 칼슘함량은 $50{\sim}60\;mg\%$이며 액상칼슘 A 농도 $3.5\%$ (v/w)와 $7.0\%$ (v/w) 첨가구에서 $103{\sim}110\;mg\%$와 $145{\sim}163\;mg\%$로 액상칼슘 B 농도 $3.5\%$ (v/w)와 $7.0\%$ (v/w) 첨가구에서는 $140{\sim}151\;mg\%$ 및 $210{\sim}220\;mg\%$으로 나타나 액상칼슘 B를 $7.0\%$ (v/w) 첨가하면 고칼슘 김치의 제조가 가능한 것으로 생각되었다.

This study investigated performance of the phenol degradation and reaction characteristics according to variation of phenol volumetric loading rates and dilution rates in suspension and PACT reactors using Pseudomonas sp. B3. 1. Removal efficiencies of the PAC unit indicated about 100 % with phenol volumetric loading rates from 0.4 phenol $kg/ma^3\cdot d$ to 1.2 phenol $kg/m^3\cdot d$, however, which of the suspension reactor showed about 100% with from 0.2 phenol $kg/m^3\cdot d$ to 0.75 phenol $kg/ma^3\cdot day$. 2. The cell density slightly was decreased from 298.2 mg/l to 272 mg/l, when dilution rate for suspension was reactor increased from 0.4 to 1.41 1/d, and also the cell density suddenly was decreased to 145.5 mg/l and was washed out at the dilution rate higher than 1.60 1/d. But the cell density for the PAC unit was linearly decreased with dilution rate of from 0.8 to 3.0 1/d, and showed 220.75 mg/l at maximum dilution rate. 3. The phenol utilization rate was increased from 0.008 to 0.031 phenol g/l$\cdot$h, when dilution rate for suspension reactor was increased from 0.4 to 1.5 1/d, however, the rate for the PAC unit was linearly increased from 0.017 to 0.061 phenol g/l$\cdot$h as variation changes from 0.017 to 0.061 phenol g/l$\cdot$h dilution rate.
