Forty-wk-old 480 ISA Brown layers were used in a 10-wk feeding trial to investigate the effects of additional various levels of limestone to a low calcium diet without any calcium additives on the performance of laying hens. There were significant differences in average egg weight (P<0.05) without any specific trend among treatments and hen-day egg production was not influenced by the dietary treatments. Daily intake and conversion per kg egg of feed excluded the calcium supplement were significantly reduced (p<0.05) as the level of additional calcium supplement increased in both types of layer diet, while those of feed included the calcium source were significantly increased (P<0.05) as the level of additional calcium supplement increased. Egg specific gravity, eggshell breaking strength and thickness were increased as the level of additional calcium supplement increased, however the significant differences were found only in egg specific gravity It would be possible to reduce the daily feed intake and feed conversion and to improve the eggshell quality by feed the low calcium diet devoid of calcium supplement from the conventional laying hen diet and by supply the additional calcium source at 3 to 4 p.m. instead of the continuous feeding of conventional high calcium diet.

As a part of investigation for utilizing seafood processing by-products as a functional food source, we investigated the processing condition (extraction methods and autoclaving time) of a functional calcium-based powder from fish bones and its characteristics. The calcium-based powder from Alaska pollack bone by autoclaving in water showed lower in the calcium content and higher in the yields and the soluble calcium ratio than those from fish bone by the other calcium extraction methods. As the autoclaving time elapsed up to 40 min, the content and soluble ratio of calcium increased, and the yield decreased. On the other hand, there were no difference found in those among calcium-based powders autoclaved for 40 min and over. Judging from the results, the calcium-based powder from Alaska pollack autoclaved in water for 40 min (CAP) was superior to those from fish bone by the other processing condition. The CAP was mostly solublized by shaking $(37^{\circ}C)$ for 1 hr at the acidic condition (pH 2.0). The soluble calcium ratio of acid-solublized CAP was about 59% by shaking $(37^{\circ}C)$ for 3 hr and over at the neutral condition (pH 7.0).

Effects of liquefied calcium supplement on bone mineral density (BMD) and bone health index (osteocalcin, deoxypyridinoline) were investigated in 12 middle aged women. Middle aged women were arranged into 3 groups such as control, Ca500 and Ca750 by liquefied calcium supplement level. BMD was measured at the spine (vertebrae L2-L4). After 6 month, BMD of control group dropped but that of Ca750 were increased from 0.850 to 0.865. The increase in serum calcium and osteocalcin level, and the decrease in urine deoxypyridinoline level were observed in by calcium supplement groups. The bone health index of serum was changed as much as level of calcium supplement. The serum osteocalcin level of Ca750 significantly increased to 7.93 ng/mL after 6 months of calcium supplement. Although we didn't get any significant difference in BMD, we found that the liquefied calcium had no side effect and led effective change in bone health index. Hereafter, we suppose that the liquefied calcium will be available to develop healthy products for preventing osteoporosis.

Calcium channel에 작용하는 dihydropyridine(DHP) 계열의 calcium channel 효능제와 길항제의 caicium channel에 대한 작용과 muscarinic receptor에 대한 작용과의 관계를 조사하기 위하여 [$^3$H]QNB와 [$^3$H]nitrendipine 결합실험을 시행하고 이를 지표로 하여 칼슘효능제와 길항제의 이들 receptors에 대한 결합성질을 검토하였다. 본 연구결과 칼슘 channel 효능제인 Bay K 8644는 칼슘길항제인 nicardipine 및 nimodipine과 같이 고농도에서 muscarinic receptor에 대한 [$^3$H]QNB결합을 경쟁적으로 억제하였으며 이들 약물의 muscarinic receptor에 대한 Ki치는 각각 16.7 $\mu$M, 3.5 $\mu$M, 및 15.5 $\mu$M이었다. 한편, 이들 약물은 다같이 칼슘 channel의 high affinity DHP결합부위에 대한 [$^3$H]nitrendipine 결합을 억제하였으나 이 부위에 대한 Bay K 8644, nicardipine, 및 nimodipine의 Ki치는 각각 4 nM, 0.1 nM, 및 0.2 nM로서 muscarinic receptor에 대한 Ki치 보다 4,000-75,000배 작았다. 뿐만 아니라 [$^3$H]QNB결합을 완전히 차단하는 고농도의 atropine(1 $\mu$M)에 의해서도 [$^3$H]nitrendipine결합이 전혀 영향을 받지 않았다. 따라서 DHP계 약물의 muscarinic receptor에 대한 작용은 칼슘channel에 대한 이들 약물의 작용을 연구하거나 임상적 치료 목적으로 사용할때는 나타나지 않을 것으로 생각된다.

A study was conducted to determine the effects of feeding a diet containing no Ca supplement (limestone) during the late finishing period on growth, marbling and serum 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin $D_3$ level in Korean native cattle. Twenty-four steers (20${\sim}$24 mo of age) were divided into two groups of 12 each: one group assigned to a control diet (concentrates containing 2.5% limestone) and the other to a diet containing no calcium supplement. They were allowed to have free access to diets (concentrates and orchard grass hay) and water during the entire feeding period (223 d). Serum $Ca^{2+}$, Ca and P concentrations were not influenced by diets, but serum 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin $D_3$ concentrations determined 2 or 6 mo after the beginning of feeding the experimental diets were higher (P<0.01) in steers fed the diet without Ca supplement than in those fed the control diet (78.3 vs 51.7 and 80.3 vs 51.1 pg/mL, respectively). Steers fed the diet without Ca supplement tended to have a higher intake of concentrates, but a lower intake of hay, compared to those fed the control diet. Average daily gain was higher (P<0.05) in steers fed the diet without Ca supplement than in those fed the control diet. Feeding the diet without Ca supplement remarkably (P<0.01) increased the marbling score (5.1 vs 2.2) and the muscle (M. longissimus dorsi) fat content (10.2 vs 6.7%) with a concomitant decrease in moisture content (67.6 vs 70.4%), compared to feeding the control diet. Ribeye area was increased (77.2 vs 82.8 $cm^2$) with the diet without Ca supplement, compared to the control diet (P<0.05). Meat color, pH and water-holding capacity in longissimus muscle were not different between the two groups. The Warner-Brazler Shear (WBS) force of the longissimus muscle was slightly (P=0.08) lower in steers fed the diet without Ca supplement than in steers fed the control diet (2.9 vs 3.2 kg/1.27-cm diameter core). Sensory evaluation showed that feeding the diet without Ca supplement slightly (P<0.05) improved tenderness (4.9 vs 4.5) and flavor (4.9 vs 4.6), compared to feeding the control diet, but juiciness was not affected by diets. Results showed that deletion of Ca supplement from finishing diets is beneficial, increasing growth and marbling partly through an increased energy intake and induced 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin $D_3$ synthesis that may increase intracellular $Ca^{2+}$ concentration and in turn fat synthesis.

Adrenal chromaffin cells secrete catecholamine in response to acetylcholine. The secretory response has absolute requirement for extracellular calcium, indicating that $Ca^{2+}$ influx through voltage operated $Ca^{2+}$ channels is the primary trigger of the secretion cascade. Although the existence of various types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels has been explored using patch clamp technique in adrenal chromaffin cells, there is still disagreement with the types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels existed in different species. Therefore, we have tried to identify several distinct types of $Ca^{2+}$ channels in rat chromaffin cells. By using nicardipine(L type channel blocker), $\omega$-CgTx GVIA(N type channel blocker), and $\omega$-AgaTx VIA(P type channel blocker), it was identified that L, N, and P type $Ca^{2+}$ channel exist in rat adrenal chromaffin cells and the order of contribution of each channel type to whole cell $Ca^{2+}$ current was L type> N type> P type. type> P type.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of tree-spray of calcium formate compound extracted from oyster shell with several active agents on the calcium concentration, fruit skin shape and quality of 'Fuji' apple. The tree-spray of calcium formate compound extracted from oyster shell (Os-CaF, $52.4\;mg{\cdot}kg^{-1}$) appeared to have more effectiveness on the calcium translocation into leaves, fruit skin and flesh than control. Addition of adjuvants to Os-CaF increased calcium concentration of 'Fuji' apple when sprayed three times before harvest. Among the active agents examined, the treatment ascorbic acid and poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA) in leaves, Ag-colloidal and PVA in fruit skin, ascorbic acid, Ag-colloidal, and PVA in fruit flesh exhibited highest effectiveness. Fruit qualities (fruit weight, firmness, soluble solids, acidity and Hunter value) were not affect by Os-CaF on different concentrations and solutions of active agents.

Recovery conditions and characteristics of a high molecular soluble protein from surimi processing wastewater in marine manufacture using calcium powder of cuttle bone treated with acetic acid (ATC) were examined. Judging from results of total-N, pH, COD, turbidity and yields, optimal treatment concentration of ATC for recovery of high molecular soluble proteins from wastewater was $1.0\%.$ The protein recovered from seafood waste (PRW) was macromolecule weight. The COD value in the wastewater treated with ATC was very high. The PRW had a $78.4\%$ in moisture, $1.0\%$ in crude lipid and $5.7\%$ in crude ash. The proximate composition, except the crude ash, of the PRW was similar to that of commercial surimi. The PRW showed white index and similar in the content and in the composition of total amino acid to those of commercial surimi. From the results of sensory evaluation on white index and texture, the heat-induced surimi gel prepared with $5\%$ subsititution of the PRW for bulking agent of commercial surimi was not significantly different compared to that prepared with the original commercial surimi.
