국내 상위 10개 업체가 국내 장류시장의 70% 이상을 차지하고 있으나 최근 들어 귀농인구의 증가로 소규모 농가형 장류 생산업체가 급격히 증가하고 있고, 전통식품인증마크 획득 등으로 전통장류 생산업체들은 지역 특산품으로 생산하여 공장형 장류와 차별화를 하고 있다. 이러한 취지에서 경북발효식품산학연협력사업단은 가내 수공업 형태로 군 단위의 지역에 산재해 있는 발효식품 업체를 클러스터 형태로 집적화하고 지역 원료의 활용을 극대화 방향으로 추진하여 전략적 발효산업으로 육성 발전시키며, 발효식품 전문제조업체를 발굴 육성하여 지역 업체의 매출 증대 및 수출 증대에 기여하고자 염미강화 및 보완소재 개발로 고부가가치 저염제품으로 발효식품에의 상용화 기반을 구축하고 있다. 경북지역 재래된장 및 개량된장 업체의 지원을 통해 저염된장을 출시함으로써 연구에 취약한 소규모 전통장류 업체의 매출 증대에 기여하고 정부시책에 발맞추어 국민의 나트륨 섭취를 줄이는데 도움이 되는 고부가가치 저염 발효가공품으로 경쟁력을 강화하고자 노력하고 있다. 앞으로 장류시장의 세계화를 이루기 위해서는 저염 상태에서 발현될 수 있는 이종 미생물 독소, 식중독균 등 오염원균으로부터의 안전성 확보 기술을 가져야 할 것이다.

최근 국내외 섬유시장은 생활패턴의 변화로 레저 활동 인구가 급증하고, 스포츠 및 케쥬얼 의류의 대한 수요가 증가하고 있어 다기능성을 발휘하는 소재에 대한 관심이 높아지고 기존의 기능성과 차별화된 신소재 및 기능성 소비자 needs가 증가되고 있다. 코코넛 활성탄소 함유 PET 원사는 최근 H사에서 코코넛 열매껍질을 원료로 탄화시켜 얻어진 활성탄소를 polyester에 혼입 방사하여 상용화 단계에 있는 원사로 우수한 흡한속건성, 항균, 소취성 그리고 UV 차단 기능성 등 최근 소비자의 needs에 맞는 고기능성 신섬유 소재로 기존의 유사 기능성 섬유(숯, 대나무, 기능성 무기물 혼입 원사 등)에 비해 물질의 표면적과 공극이 넓어 보다 탁월한 성능을 발휘하는 것으로 알려져 있지만 활성탄소를 함유한 원사로 짙은 원착색으로 인해 의복의 심미성이 크게 떨어지는 단점이 있어 이를 보완 할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 상용화 단계의 코코넛 활성탄소 함유 PET 원사의 심미성을 보완 할 수 있는 편직기술과 활성탄소 입자 소실을 방지하고 기능성 발현에 알맞은 염색 가공 공정을 확립하여 심미성과 기능성을 갖는 기능성 원단을 개발하였고 개발된 원단의 물성과 기능성을 평가하였다.

본 논문은 대뇌 활성화 상태 변화와 혈액형간의 상관성 분석을 목적으로 한다. 혈액은 인체의 혈관을 통하여 몸 전체로 순환하는 액체 성 물질이다. 이 혈액을 구성하는 물질의 이질적 차이를 나타내는 차별적 유형을 혈액형이라 하며, 혈액형은 멘델의 법칙에 따라 부모에서 자식으로 유전된다. [1] 최근 들어 혈액형이 가지는 유전적 특징을 통한 질병 진단 및 치료, 예방을 위한 연구가 진행되고 있으나, 대부분의 연구는 육체적인 질병과 관련되어 있는 실정이다. 그러나, 혈액형의 경우 유전적 특성을 가지고 있으며, 신경 전달 망에 영향을 끼칠 것으로 추정 되는바 육체적 질병뿐만 아닌 정신적인 질환에도 혈액형에 따른 치료 및 예방방법을 차별화 하여, 보다 효율적인 치료 및 예방을 수행 할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 본 논문에서는 이를 위하여, 외부자극에 따른 대뇌 활성화 상태 변화를 분석하며, 특히 혈액형에 따른 상태변화의 상관성을 분석하고자 한다. 본 논문에서 활용하는 외부 자극은 청각 자극을 활용하며, 먼저 혈액형에 따른 피험자 군의 분류를 수행하여 동일 군 내 공통반응 및 상이한 군 간의 특이반응을 분석하여, 혈액형이 대뇌 활성화 상태 변화 및 정신질환에 따른 증상발현 등과 유관함을 검증하고자 한다.

Intoxication of murine macrophages (RAW 264.7) with the anthrax lethal toxin (LeTx 100 ng/ml) results in profound alterations in the host cell gene expression. The role of LeTx in mediating these effects is unknown, largely due to the difficulty in identifying and assigning function to individual proteins. In this study, we have used two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis to analyze the protein profile of murine macrophages treated with the LeTx, and have coupled this to protein identification using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Interpretation of the peptide mass fingerprint data has relied primarily on the ProFound database. Among the differentially expressed spots, cleaved mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (Mek1) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase were increased in the LeTx treated macrophages. Mek1 acts as a negative element in the signal transduction pathway, and G6PD plays the role for the protection of the cells from the hyper-production of active oxygen. Our results suggest that this proteomic approach is a useful tool to study protein expression in intoxicated macrophages and will contribute to the identification of a putative substrate for LeTx.

Silkworm larvae often suffer from viral infections causing heavy losses to the economy of silk industry. Insects exhibit both humoral and cellular immune responses that are effective against various pathohens like bacteria, fungi, protozoa, etc., but no insect immune responses is effective against viral infection. To obtain genes related to insect antiviral immunity from Bombyx mori, the cDNA library was constructed from B. mori nucleopolyhedrovirus (BmNPV)-infected B. mori. From the cDNA library, we selected 411 differentially expressed clones, and the 5' ends of the inserts were sequenced to generate ESTs. In this work, 135 unigenes were generated after the assembly of 411 differentially expressed clones ESTs. Of these 135 unigenes, we selected 109 antiviral response-related candidates except 26 clones that high similarity with genes derived from BmNPV. Among 109 unigenes, a total of 80% had significant matches to genes from other organisms in the database, wheres 20% of the unigenes had not matched in the database. Functional groups of these sequences with matches in database were constructed according to their putative biological function. Three largest categories were control of cellular oraganization (52%), metabolism (20%), and protein fate (10%). The genetic information reported in this study will provide more information about antiviral-related genes in silkworms.

A putative cyclomaltodextrinase (LLCD) gene was cloned from the genome of Lactococcus lactis subsp. lactis KCTC 3769 (ATCC 19435), which encodes 584 amino acids with the predicted molecular mass of 68.7 kDa. KCTC 3769 shares approximately 40% of amino acid sequence identity with the CDase-family of enzymes. The dimeric enzyme with C-terminal six-histidines was heterologously expressed and purified from recombinant E. coli. LLCD showed the highest activity against ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (CD) at pH 7.0 and $37^{\circ}C$. In particular, LLCD exhibited extremely low activity against starch and pullulan, while its CD-hydrolyzing activity was about 80 times higher than starch. Due to its much higher activity on CD over starch, LLCD has been identified as a member of CDases. However, LLCD can be distinguished from the other common CDases on the basis of its extremely low hydrolyzing activity against starch, pullulan, and acarbose.

Recently, the market of skin-care device has been steadily growing up. In this paper, we tried to develop a personal compound stimulus device more competitive than existing products. As the compound stimulus, biochemical stimulus of herbal extraction fluid, thermal stimulus of plate-shaped carbon fiber heater, and optical stimulus of near infrared LED were selected. By some evaluation tests, the thermal stimulation part and the optical stimulation part were found to be developed properly. Additionally, the efficacy of the mixed stimulus of thermal and optical stimulation was tested in C2C12 mouse myoblast. Through RT-PCR analysis, it was found that, by the developed compound stimulus, the expression of collagen I mRNA and collagen III mRNA increased by 4.9 and 1.3 times respectively.

To isolate a novel gene for antibacterial peptide, an inducible clone(BmInc8) was selected by differential screening strategy from Bombyx mori cDNA library prepared from lavae injected with Escherichia coli. This clone contained a cDNA insert of 564 nucleotides and encoded 59 amino acids with an apparent molecular mass of 6.3 kDa. The cDNA sequence of BmInc8 had 61.2% identity compared to that of the bactericidin from Manduca sexta and also the deduced amino acids sequences from this insert had 65% identity compared to that of the cecropin D peptide Hyalophora cecropia. The transient expression assay of this insert using prokaryotic expression vector system revealed that the expressed peptide displayed the antibacterial activity. The cDNA sequence was deposited in GenBank under the accession number U30289.

Taking note of growing tendency of academic interests and policy applications with regard to social economy, this study aims to suggest economic geographical agenda for social economy. It is presumed that the orientation of social economy toward pursuing social value will exhibit unique spatial characteristics. Elements containing spatial implications have been identified through a review of hierarchial concepts including social innovation, social economy organization and social enterprise. Three approached are suggested as tools of understanding the spatial context of social economy: spatial characteristics inspiring social entrepreneurship, place-based context of decision-making by social economy organizations, and spaces formulated by interactions between the demand for solving social problems and the supply of economic resources. The investigation of social innovation clusters is required to focus on the differentiated characteristics from normal industrial clusters. It is also suggested that the concept of embeddedness be applied in the search of the essence and elements of social economy's ties with local community.
