편의와 fresh-like quality를 선호하는 소비 경향에 맞추어 가공한 fresh-cut사과의 선도 연장을 위한 저해제를 탐색하였다. 실험에 사용된 사과는 박피하여 속심을 제거한 사과를 8조각으로 절단하여 저해제에 3분간 침지한 후 물기를 제거하고 각각 LDPE 포장지에 포장하여 실온에서 저장하면서 colorimeter와 rheometer를 이용하여 색도와 물성을 측정하였다. 저해제로는 1% ascorbic acid, citric acid, NaCl, MgCl$_2$, CaCl$_2$, KCl, CaSO$_4$, MgSO$_4$, $Na_2$SO$_4$, oxalic acid, calcium lactate, calcium citrate를 사용하였으며 천연저해제로는 건칡, 맥문동, 목향, Rhubarb, 당귀, 오약, 시체, 지각, 천문동, 청피, 계피, 구기자, 당귀, 진피, 감초, 녹차, 후추 등을 열수추출하여 사용하였다. 물리적인 변화는 시간이 경과함에 따라 감소하는 추세를 보였으며 일부 건조로 인해 texture의 증가를 나타내기도 했다. 처리에 따른 물리적인 변화로는 CaCl$_2$, NaSO$_4$, Cl, 시금치를 처리하였을 때 그 변화가 가장 작았으나 시금치의 경우 시금치로 인한 사과의 색변화로 관능적으로 좋지 않았다. 한약재는 목향, 당귀, 지각, 계피를 처리하였을 때 물리적인 변화가 가장 작았으나 시금치와 마찬가지로 처리 초기에 한약재 자체의 향과 색으로 인하여 관능적으로 좋지 못한 결과를 나타냈다. 갈변 정도를 나타내는 ΔE의 변화는 KCl과 CaCl$_2$, CaSO$_4$를 처리한 구에서 변화가 가장 작았으며 한약재를 처리하였을 경우 당귀, 천문동을 처리한 구에서 효과를 보였다. oxalic acid는 갈변저해에는 효과적이었으나 시간이 경과함에 따라 수분의 용출이 증가하였으며 물성의 변화도 컸다. 또한 ZnCl$_2$를 처리한 구에서는 이취 발생과 수분 용출이 컸으며 색의 변화도 컸다.

A series of ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid-derived, potent human cytosolic phospholipase A$_2$ inhibitors have been prepared from acyl cyanophosphoranes and amine derivatives in a convergent manner. The ${\alpha}$-keto amide functionalities in the inhibitors have been introduced as electrophilic fragments via direct coupling reactions between the labile ${\alpha},{\beta}$-diketo nitriles and ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid t-butyl ester derivatives at -78 $^{\circ}C$ in moderate to good yields.

It is difficult to accurately evaluate the effect of lipophilic compounds in aqueous reaction system of enzymes because they are immiscible with water. To screen lipophilic inhibitors of tyrosinase which catalyzes the synthesis of melanin in vivo, an optically clear organic system composed of organic solvent, surfactant, and water, often called reverse micelles(RM), was introduced. Optimal RM to let tyrosinase act normally was composed of isooctane as an organic solvent and dioctyl sulfosuccinate(AOT) of 100 mM as a surfactant. When a molar ratio of water to surfactant was 15, tyrosinase(105.3 units) in RM showed a similar reactivity toward 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine(0.18 mM) as in the aqueous assay system. In the presence of cinnamic acid, the product formation of tyrosinase reaction was proportional to the reaction time. This indicates that the inhibitory effect of lipophilic compounds could be analyzed in RM.

The in vivo effect of tyrosinase inhibitors in the melanogenesis of gold fish (jet black color) was evaluated by measuring surface color and observing melanin pigment. The fish was firstly cultivated in 0.9% NaCl solution for 1 week to induce melanogenesis, and then, it was transferred to each treatment group containing tyrosinase inhibitor. The fish was grouped into control. food additive group (addition of 5 mM glutathione, 5 mM cysteine, and 1 mM benzoic acid), microbial inhibitor group (addition of culture broth of Aspergillus oryzae in shiitake and glucose medium), and plant extract group (addition of the mixed extracts of green tea, beet, red chicory, and nameko). After 6 days, the fish was anesthetized by electric shock, and color of pectoral region, lateral region, and dorsal fin was measured. Hunter's L and b values of treated group were generally higher than those of control group, indicating that the tyrosinase inhibitors could inhibit the melanogenesis of the fish. Effect of plant extract was apparent, though relatively weak, not because it did not work in vivo, but because a sufficient amount of extract could not be added to fish globes. If a large amount of extract was added, fish gradually died due to a microbial contamination. Microscopic observation of melanin in lateral scale and dorsal fin showed that in the treated groups with tyrosinase inhibitors, the number of melanophore per unit area and the size of one melanophore decreased.

Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors were isolated and purified from pig blood plasma. Pig blood plasma was obtained after removing blood cells by centrfugation, followed by the addition of anticoagulant to whole pig blood. To precipitate plasma proteins, pig blood plasma was treated with 4% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) as a final concentration. ACE inhibitors were isolated from plasma protein hydrolysates and TCA supernatant, using ultrafiltration, gel permeation chromatography, and reverse-phase high pressure liquid chromatography. ACE inhibitors isolated from plasma hydrolysates and TCA supernatant had $IC_{50}$ values of $23\;{\mu}M$ and $2\;{\mu}M$, pentapeptide, respectively.

토양으로부터 Actinomycetes 분리: Actinomycetes는 항생물질이나 항암물질을 많이 생산하는 중요한 균주로 의학계나 농업분야에 널리 이용되고 있다. Adenosine deaminase 저해제를 생산하는 균주를 찾기 위해 토양으로부터 actinomycetes를 분리하였다 Suluble-starch-casein배지와 AS-1배지를 이용하였는데 이들은 탄소원으로 용해성 전분을 공통적으로 함유하고 있다. 나무밑이나 산, 언덕등의 건조한 토양이나 두엄이나, 두엄밑의 토양을 탄산칼슘을 처리하여 주었을 때 actinomycetes가 많이 생장하는 것으로 알려져 있으므로 이러한 흙들을 채취하여 actinomycetes 분리에 이용하였다.

An actinomycetes F-97 producing tyrosinase inhibitor was isolated from soil samples. Isolation and purification of tyrosinase inhibitor produced by F-97 was performed as follows: IRC-120 ($NH_4^+$ type) column chromatography, silica gel column chromatography, $C_{18}$ column chromatography and Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography were used successively after the centrifuged supernatant was adjusted to pH 4.0. To identify the purity of the inhibitor, octadecylsilyl(ODS) HPLC was carried out with 5% methanol as a mobile phase. Finally, the purification yield of a tyrosinase inhibitor was 5.24%. The inhibitor was very soluble in water, methanol and ethanol but insoluble in acetone, butanol, ethylacetate and chloroform. The ${\lambda}_{max}$ value of this inhibitor in water was 194nm under UV light. The biochemical test of the inhibitor was positive in Molish, Benedict, cone. $H_2SO_4$, and $KMnO_4$ tests but negative in iodine, ninhydrin, Million, Sakaguchi, xanthoproteic and Emerson tests. The tyrosinase inhibitor was stable against heat treatment of $100^{\circ}C$ for 50 minutes and pH $4{\sim}9$. The $IC_{50}$ value of this inhibitor was $19.2{\mu}g/ml$ for mushroom tyrosinase. In $1,000{\mu}g/ml$ inhibitor concentration, inhibition zone was 27 mm for Streptomyces bikiniensis NRRL B-1049. The inhibition of F-97 against mushroom tyrosinase was competitive with tyrosine.

The hot water extract from cinnamon (Cinnamomum cassia Presl) inhibited the activity of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) with IC₅₀ value of 45.6 ㎍/mL. The ADH inhibitory components in cinnamon extract were relatively stable to acid and heat, but were found to be volatile. The optimum temperature and time for extracting the ADH inhibitory components from cinnamon were 80 ℃ and 2 h, respectively. Among the essential oils of cinnamon, cinnamaldehyde was the main substance for ADH inhibition. Cinnamaldehyde is considered a competitive inhibitor of ethanol to ADH. Therefore, the cinnamon extract and cinnamaldehyde showed the potential to be used as natural materials for relieving symptoms of a hangover.

This study was to investigate the occurrence patterns of paddy weeds, their resistance levels to an ALS inhibiting herbicide, and to estimate the areas of resistance in these paddy fields. We used soil collected from 358 paddy fields of Jeonnam province in 2017. Based on their life cycles, weeds were 96% annuals and 4% perennial. Additionally, according to morphological classification, 59% were broad leaves, 28% were sedges and 13% were grasses. Different areas within Jeonnam province contained different numbers and occurrence rates of weed species. However, generally, we observed Lindernia dubia var. dubia, Monochoria vaginalis var. plantaginea, Ludwigia prostrata, L. procumbens, Cyperus difformis, Scirpus juncoides, Eleocharis Kuroguwai, Echinochloa oryzoides, and E. crus-galli var. echinata. We also observed seven weeds resistant to an ALS inhibiting herbicide. They were M. vaginalis, S. juncoides, C. difformis, L. dubia, Ludwigia prostrata, E. oryzoides, and E. crus-galli var. echinata. Although there were differences in the number and occurrence rate of resistant weed species to an ALS inhibiting herbicide among areas in Jeonnam province, the M. vaginalis, C. difformis, and S. juncoides occurred in 23 cities and counties in Jeonnam including Gwangju metropolitan city. Based on the rates (52%) of resistant occurrence to an ALS inhibiting herbicide in Jeonnam province, the area of weed resistant paddy fields was estimated to be 91,543 ha.
