This study was investigated the effects on functional recovery of eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage by phonophoresis transdermal permeation of piroxicam gel and observed the change of amplitude at muscle action potential. Through eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage, performed healthy men and women take eccentric resistance exercise and measured action, potentials. The subjects were divided into three groups of four men each 24 hour, 48 hour, 72 hour. The results of this were as follows: 1. Change of maximal action potential at maximal voluntary contraction : The phonophoresis group was increase more than control group and gel group. 2. Change of average action potential at maximal voluntary contraction : The gel group was increase more than control group and phonophoresis group. 3. Change of maximal action potential at pain subthreshold voluntary contraction : The phonophoresis group was increase more significantly than control group and gel group. 4. Change of average action potential at pain subthreshold voluntary contraction : The phonophoresis group was increase more significantly than control group and gel group. In conclusion, the change of muscle action potential amplitude by eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage showed that the phonophoresis by pulsed ultrasound of piroxicam gel was improved the recovery of muscle function.

Ferritin from germinated soybean seeds was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation (0.55 saturation), ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, gel filtration chromatography on Sephacryl S-300, and HPLC with Bio-Scale Q2 column. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the purified ferritin is composed of subunit with an apparent M, 21,000. The molecular mass of the native soybean ferritin estimated by gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300 and non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis appeared to be $510{\sim}560\;kDa$. Soybean ferritin contained 833 mol Fe/mol protein, which is 31-fold more iron than pumpkin ferritin and stained positive for iron on non-denaturing gel. Soybean ferritin cross-reacted with anti-soybean rabbit ferritin antiserum.

Lactoferrin-binding proteins (LBP) has not been well characterized in Streptococcus uberis isolated from milk of bovine mastitis and to date this protein is considered to be an important virulence factor in Streptococcal mastitis. To determine the more efficient extraction method of LBP from four S. uberis strains, we used two different extraction methods (mutanolysin and sodium dodecyl sulfate) in this study. Bacterial proteins extracted were electrophoresed by 10% polyacrylamide gels in the presence of sodium deodecyl sulfate and gels were transferred onto nitrocellulose membrane. Rabbit anti-bovine lactoferrin antibody and HRP-conjugated donkey anti-rabbit IgG antibody were used to detect LBP. This Western blotting analysis demonstrates that extraction method with SDS extracted 110 kDa and 112 kDa LBPs more efficiently compared to the mutanolysin extraction method.

Lipase (EC 3.1.1.3) in the culture filtrate of Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) was active on ${\alpha}$-naphthyl-butyrate as well as on various triacylglycerols with different lengths of acyl chains. The extracellular lipase was purified 15-fold by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-100, DEAE-Cellulose and Phenyl-Sepharose CL4B column chromatography with overall yield of 16%. It showed an molecular weight of 34.7 kDa by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The enzyme activity with tributyrin as substrate was optimal at pH 8.0~9.0 and at $37^{\circ}C$. The enzyme activity decreased when the chain length of acyl group of triacyglycerol increased. A-factor, a hormone-like regulator of Streptomyces differentiation inhibited the lipase activity, which might corelate with the low enzyme activity in early exponential growth phase.

Whey proteins in milk were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and compared with respect to electrophoregrams, densitograms and concentrations of whey proteins in raw and market milk classified according to 3 kinds of pasteurization by low temperature long time. high temperature short time and ultra-high temperature short time. Relative composition of major whey protein constituents such as bovine serum albumin, ${\alpha}\;-\;lactalbumin\;and\;{\beta}-lactoglobulin$ in raw milk were 3.71:11.44:84.85 and not affected by low temperature long time and high temperature short time pasteurization, even though there were the tendencies of some declining in the actual concentrations. But by ultra-high temperature short time pasteurization compositions of whey protein were changed to 0: 64.75: 35 in which reflected the disapprearance of bovine serum albumin and the extensive decrease of ${\beta}-lactoglobulin$. Storage of low temperature pasteurized milk at $5^{\circ}C$ resulted in a slight decrease of ${\alpha}\;-\;lactalbumin\;a\;{\beta}-lactoglobulin$, but storage at $25^{\circ}C$ did not make any changes until3rd days of storage. Most of whey proteins in high temperature short time pasteurized milk were not affected during storage at $5^{\circ}C\;and\;25^{\circ}C$, but bovine serum albumin and ${\alpha}\;-lactalbumin$ diminished in 2-3 days of storage. Whey proteins of milk treated with ultra-high temeperature were not affected during storage at $5^{\circ}C\;and\;25^{\circ}C$ except a slight decrease of ${\alpha}\;-lactalbumin$ in 2nd day of storage at $5^{\circ}C$.

Two trypsin-like enzymes, designated trypsin A and 3, purified from the intestine of menhaden by $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ fractionation, Benzamidine-Sepharose 6B affinity chromatography, DEAE-Sephacel ion exchange chromatography and Sephadex G-75 gel filtration chromatography. The two trypsins were subjected to compare the enzymatic properties of the trypsin-like enzymes from the other dark fleshed fishes. Both trypsins catalysed the hydrolysis of N$\alpha$-benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilide and they were remarkably inhibited by several well known trypsin-inhibitors, tosyllysyl chloromethyl ketone, soybean trypsin inhibitor, be-nzamidine, leupeptin and antipain, etc. Therefore, it was ascertained that the two enzymes are serine-type trypsins. The molecular weights of these enzymes were about 25,000 and 26,200, respectively, ;Is determined by SDS-PAG electrophoresis and by Sephadex G-100 gel filtration, and the molecular weights of these two enzymes are somewhat fewer than those from the other dark fleshed fishes. Both enzymes had less basic amino acids such as arginine and Iysine, whereas they had slightly high contents of neutral amino acids, glycine, alanine and tryptophane. The enzymes showed a pH optimum of $8\~11$ at $60^{\circ}C$ against the $N\alpha$-benzoyl-DL-argi-nine-p-nitroanilide substrate and they were quite unstable above $40^{\circ}C$ and under the atidic pH region. The Km constant of the two enzymes against the $N\alpha$-benzoyl-DL-arginine-p-nitroanilide was $1.4\times10^{-4}M$ for trypsin A and $4.3\times10^{-5}M$ for trypsin B, respectively.

Srrepromycec. corlirolar produces at least 4 catalase activity bands with different electrophoretic mobilities on polyacrylamide gel which vary during development. Spores and mycelia at stationary phase produced all the activity bands(Cat1. 760 kr); Cat3-I, 170 kD: Cat3-2, 140 kD: Cat3-3. 130 kD; Cat4, 70 kD) except for Cat2 (300 kD). Mycelia at mid-logarithmic phase produced only Cat2 and Cat3-2 bands, and mycelia at late-logarithmic phase produced bands except Catl and Cat\ulcorner. Catalase-deficient mutants were screened in S. coelicalur by H201 bubbling test following NTG mutagenesis. Wc tested sevcral non-bubbling or slow-bubbling mutants for their catalase activities. The overall activities in cell extracts decreased more than 5 fold. Activity bands in native gel selectively decreased in intensity or disappeared. In all the non-bubbling mutants testcd, Cat3-2 band decreased significantly or disappeared. suggesting that Cat3-2 is the major catalase. The selective disappearance of bands in mutants suggest that each band is governed by different genes. We purified catalase activity from -:ell extracts obtained at late-logarithmic phase. Following chromatographies on Sepharose CL-4B. DEAE Sepharose CL-6B. Phcnyl Sepharose CL-4B. and hydroxylapatite columns. only the Cat3-2 activity was obtained. The native form of Cat3-2 has molecular weight of approximately 140 kD, judged by gel electrophoresis. Thc electrophoretic mobility on SDS-polyactylamide gel suggests that this enzyme contains 2 identical subunits of 67 kD.

In the previous paper(Kim et al, 1986), the alkaline proteinase from the pyloric caeca of mackerel was shown relatively strong activity in the alkaline pH range. Therefore purification of the enzyme has been undertaken to identify the proteolytic enzyme and three alkaline proteinases were isolated by ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography and Sephadex G-100 gel filtration. One percent sodium chloride solution was the most effective for the extraction of alkaline proteinase from the pyloric caeca of mackerel. Three alkaline proteinases temporarily designated Enz. A, B and C were isolated from the pyloric caeca of mackerel, and identified to be homogeneous with electrophoresis. The specific activity of the purified Enz. A, B and C was increased to 34, 53 and 37-fold over the crude enzyme solution, respectively. Yield of them was 1.6, 2.1 and $1.5\%$, respectively, and a combined yield was $5.2\%$.
