  • Biorefineries, in which renewable resources are utilized, are an eco-friendly alternative based on biomass feedstocks. Alginic acid, a major component of brown algae, which is a type of marine biomass, is widely used in various industries and can be converted into value-added chemicals such as sugars, sugar alcohols, furans, and organic acids via catalytic hydrothermal decomposition under certain conditions. In this study, ruthenium-supported activated carbon and magnesium oxide were mixed and applied to the depolymerization of alginic acid in a batch reactor. The addition of magnesium oxide as a basic promoter had a strong influence on product distribution. In this heterogeneous catalytic system, the separation and purification processes are also simplified. After the reaction, low molecular weight alcohols and organic acids with 5 or fewer carbons were produced. Specifically, under the optimal reaction conditions of 30 mL of 1 wt% alginic acid aqueous solution, 100 mg of ruthenium-supported activated carbon, 100 mg of magnesium oxide, 210 ℃ of reaction temperature, and 1 h of reaction time, total carbon yields of 29.8% for alcohols and 43.8% for a liquid product were obtained. Hence, it is suggested that this catalytic system results in the enhanced hydrogenolysis of alginic acid to value-added chemicals.

  • The main goal of this study was to investigate biomodification mechanism of lignin by white rot fungus, Abortiporus biennis, and to depolymerize ethanol organosolv lignin for industrial application. In nitrogen-limited culture, A. biennis polymerized mainly lignin showing a rapid increase of molecular weight and structural changes depending on incubation days. At the initial incubation days, cleavage of ether bonds increased phenolic OH content, while the results were contrary in of the later part of the culture. Based on these results, ascorbic acid as a reducing agent was used to induce depolymerization of lignin during cultivation with white rot fungus. As a result, the degree of increase of average molecular weight of lignin was significantly declined when compared with those of the ascorbic acid free-experiment, although the molecular weight of fungus treated sample slightly increased than that of control. Furthermore, lignin derived oligomers in culture medium were depolymerized with the addition of ascorbic acid, showing that the average molecular weight was 381 Da, and phenolic OH content was 38.63%. These depolymerized lignin oligomers were considered to be applicable for industrial utilization of lignin. In conclusion, A. biennis led to the polymerization of lignin during biomodification period. The addition of ascorbic acid had a positive effect on the depolymerization and increase of phenolic OH content of lignin oligomers in medium.

  • Various cell wall polysaccharides such as ionically associated pectin (IAP), covalently bounded pectin (CBP),4N potassium hydroxide soluble hemicellulosic fraction (HF,) and 0-3N soluble hemicellulosic fraction (HF,) were fractionated from crude cell wall of the fresh and soft persimmon by chemical method. The changesin cell wall polysaccharides were studied by gel filteration chromatography . The content of crude cell wall remarkably decreased in the soft persimmon. The decreasing rates of IAP, CBP and $HF_2$ were 59, 60 and 74%, respectively, while $HF_1$ and cellulose changed only a little during softening. Sugar compositions of IAP and CBP were 72-84% uronic acid, 5-1% hexose and 11-16% pentose, and also the hemicellulose was composed of uronic acid besides hexose and pentose that was hemicellulosic components. The loss rate of pentose in IAP, of hexose in CBP, of hexose and uronic acid in $HF_2$, of pentose in $HF_1$ increased during softening. Though apparent average molecular freight of all polysaccharides shifted from high molecular freight to low molecular weight polymer, the shifting degree of CBP and $HF_2$ was especially remarkable during softening. It is suggested that the severe softening phenomenon of persimmon involved the degradation and dissolution of wall bound-CBP and $HF_2$ which were associated with each other.

  • This study investigated quality changes and functions of low-molecular soymilk according to hydrolysis time (30, 60, and 90 minutes). According to the results, pH of hydrolyzed groups were lower than that of the control group but it did not show a large difference according to hydrolysis time while sugar content was reduced with longer hydrolysis time. Although degree of hydrolysis and calcium tolerance increased with longer hydrolysis time, there was not a significant difference according to the time. Among free sugars, contents of glucose and fructose grew while those of sucrose and maltose tended to decline with time. Total free sugar content was the largest with 60 minutes of hydrolysis time recording 827.65 mg%. Total amino acid content was also the highest with hydrolyzed for 60 minutes recording 85.80 mg% and those of all hydrolyzed groups were higher than that of the control group. In addition, the content of essential amino acid increased significantly with time. In SDS-PAGE, checked for the tendency of becoming low molecules, molecular weights were found to be 33 kDa or less kDa in all hydrolyzed groups. When functional characteristics of soymilk such as electron donating, superoxide radical scavenging and ACE inhibitory activities were compared, longer hydrolysis time led to higher activities. From these results, overall quality of low molecular soymilk was superior when hydrolyzed for 60 minutes and the findings should be viable in the development of various types of functionally strengthened low-molecular soymilk in the future.

  • This study was performed to investigate the wound healing effect of skin regeneration cosmetics utilizing low molecular weight Polydeoxynucleotide (PDRN). High purity PDRN was prepared from salmon testes poly-deoxy-ribonucleotide through protein and toxin removal process and molecular weight reduction. In order to evaluate the wound healing effect of PDRN in SD rats, 4 sites of dorsal skin of each animal were excised by using biopsy punch and $500{\mu}L$ of test solution was topically applied once daily for 4 weeks. The tissue changes were observed for every week during the application periods. After applying the PDRN to the wound, the skin was cut flower and contraction of the wounds more quickly, and the coating of PDRN in the wound area was reduced significantly as compared to the positive control group $Fucidin^{(R)}$ applied. The microscopic observation of stained tissue showed that a positive control was most rapid in re-epithelialization ability followed by the PH group, PDRN group, HA group. In addition, transforming growth factor ($TGF-{\beta}$) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), such as in the growth factor was similar to the results of staining of tissue lesions. In conclusion, it is determined that the low molecular weight PDRN has the therapeutic effect to the wound, and could be used as a functional material of cosmetics and medical industries.

  • This study was performed to determine the optimal hydrolysis conditions for the production of hydrolysates, including water-soluble dietary fiber from Chinese cabbage, with commercial enzymes. The optimal pH and temperature for hydrolysis of the hemicellulose fraction were pH 5.0 and $40^{\circ}C$, and optimal enzyme concentrations were 45 units and 21 units for Shearzyme plus and Viscozyme L, respectively. The yields of the hydrolysate including the water-soluble dietary fiber from the hemicellulose fraction by Shearzyme plus and Viscozyme L were 22.64 and 24.73%, respectively, after a 72 h reaction. The molecular weight distribution of alcohol-insoluble fiber was characterized by gel chromatography; degradation of hemicellulose increased with increasing reaction time. Our results indicate that the hemicellulose fraction was degraded to water-soluble dietary fiber by enzymatic hydrolysis, and its hydrolysate could be utilized as new watersoluble food materials.

  • It was investigated that the reduction of the intense brown color and increase of solubility, and depolymerization of polymerized melanoidins by ozonolysis affect their antioxidative and antimutagenic activities. Melanoidins was depolymerized and decolorized by ozonolysis. Ozone-treated melanoidins revealed a lower antioxidative activity and a higher antimutagenic activity than those of the untreated control. Fractions of ozone-treated melanoidins showed three peaks resemble to that of the melanoidins on Sephadex column chromatogram. Melanoidins of above MW 1,200 showed intense brown color. However, the strongest electron-donating ability was detected in the melanoidins of between MW 750 to 900. Ozone-treated and ozone-untreated melanoidins of between MW 900 to 1,000 revealed the higher antioxidative and antimutagenic activities.

  • We studied a storage of waste-brown seaweed at room temperature and degradation of alginate in seaweed by microorganism DS-02. The seaweeds, mixed with 5.0 wt% DS-02 and sealed in vinyl package without any other treatment, could be stored longer than 1 year without spoilage at room temperature. During the storage process, the alginate of seaweed was decomposed by enzyme of DS-02 and the molecular weight of alginate decreased to about 1/10 of initial quantity. DS-02 growed as fast as it had maximum weight after 24 hour culture and it's enzyme had a maximum activity of alginate degradation at $40^{\circ}C.$ The seaweed sample became particles in DS-02 culture solution and the M. W of alginate decreased to about 1/10 of initial value after 24 hour decomposition. The effect of alginate degradation with DS-02 was similar to that of degradation with 3.0 M HCI solution for 24 hour.
