Novel Phellinus linteus HN1009K (HK1009) has been characterized on speedy mycelial growth and yearly artificial cultivation. In this study, antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities of ethanol extract from mycelium and fruiting body of P. linteus HN1009K (HK1009) were compared to those of P. linteus (PL, Korea Sangwhang) and P. baumii (PB, Jangsu Sanghwang) as controls. HK1009 extract showed higher DPPH free radical scavenging activity in both mycelial and fruiting body samples than those of PL and PB. However, in xanthine oxidase assay, antioxidant effect was highly measured on mycelial samples of PL and HK1009. Mycelial extract of HK1009 induced high inhibitory effect on LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in RAW264.7 cells comparing to PL and PB without toxicity on the cells. The results suggest that P. linteus HN1009K possesses superior antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory effects.

InP/InGaP quantum structures (QSs) grown on GaAs substrates by a migration-enhanced molecular beam epitaxy method were studied as a function of growth temperature (T) using photoluminescence (PL) and emission-wavelength-dependent time-resolved PL (TRPL). The growth T were varied from $440^{\circ}C$ to $520^{\circ}C$ for the formation of InP/InGaP QSs. As growth T increases from $440^{\circ}C$ to $520^{\circ}C$, the PL peak position is blue-shifted, the PL intensity increases except for the sample grown at $520^{\circ}C$, and the PL decay becomes fast at 10 K. Emission-wavelength-dependent TRPL results of all QS samples show that the decay times at 10 K are slightly changed, exhibiting the longest time around at the PL peak, while at high T, the decay times increase rapidly with increasing wavelength, indicating carrier relaxation from smaller QSs to larger QSs via wetting layer/barrier. InP/InGaP QS sample grown at $460^{\circ}C$ shows the strongest PL intensity at 300 K and the longest decay time at 10 K, signifying the optimum growth T of $460^{\circ}C$.

Pellinus linteus has been used for the prevention of cancer traditionally. There are three origins of Pellinus linteus, Korea, China and Cambodia. However, their immunological activities were not evlauated comparatively. Thus, this study was done to evaluate immunomodulatory effects of Phellinus linteus(PL) from Korea, china and cambodia, We confirmed PL showed two major protein bands, 50 kDa and 80 kDa by protein analysis. These PL effectively upregulated the expressions of IL-2 at 10 ug/ml and GM-CSF, IL-4, IL-10, IL-12(p35), IL-12(p40), IL-18, IFN-r in all concentrations. However, Korea-PL upregulated the expression of IL-12 more effectively than the other PLs. It intended to increase NO with no significance. Those results indicate Phellinus linteus had cytokine modulating effect

A mixture of sixteen cerebrosides, which comprised four cerebroside molecular species (PL-1 ${\sim}$ PL-4) was separated from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora. The structures of cerebrosides were characterized as $1-O-{\beta}$-D-glucopyranosides of phytosphingosines, which comprised a common long-chain base, (2S,3S,4R,8E/Z)-2-amino-8-octadecene-1,3,4-triol with eight fatty acids or 2-hydroxy fatty acids of varying chain lengths ($C_{16}$, $C_{18}$, $C_{20-26}$) linked to the amino group. Aralia cerebroside and its 8Z isomer (PL-1), $1-O-{\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-(2S,3S, 4R,8E/Z)-2-[(2'R)-2'-hydroxytetracosanoylamino]-8-octadecene-1,3,4-triol (PL-2), $1-O-{\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-(2S,3S,4R, 8E/Z)-2-[(2'R)-2'-hydroxydocosanoylamino]-8-octadecene-1,3,4-triol (PL-3), and $1-O-{\beta}$-D-glucopyranosyl-(2S,3S,4R, 8E/Z)-2-[(2'R)-2'-hydroxytricosanoylamino]-8-octadecene-1,3,4-triol (PL-4) were identified as major components of these cerebroside molecular species. All the major cerebrosides were shown to be a mixture of geometrical isomers (8E and 8Z) of phytosphingosine-type glucocerebrosides possessing 2R-hydroxy fatty acids. In addition, three ${\beta}-sitosterol$ derivatives and adenosine were also separated. The structures of these isolates have been determined on the basis of chemical and spectroscopic evidence.

Panu ginseng (6 Year old) was grown $17^{\circ}C$/$15^{\circ}C$ and $27^{\circ}C$ day/$23^{\circ}C$ night in the light room of phytotron for 84 days. The composition of neutral lipid(NL), glycolipid(GL), phospholipid(PL) and fatty acids were investigated in leaves. The contents of NL and GL were higher in $25^{\circ}C$ while PL was lower. Similarity (simple correlation) of lipid composition between $16^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ was not significant for PL and GL but significant for NL(p = 0.001), indicating that PL and GL were important factors in the mostability. Similarity of fatty acid composition between growth temperatures was highly significant (p = 0.001) for all three lipids, while similarity between lipids was significant between NL and PL (p=0.01) and NL and GL (p=0.05), but nonsignificant between GL and PL at $16^{\circ}C$. .In NL digalactosyldiacylglycerol (3->$7^{\circ}$) increased but monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (10%) did not change at $25^{\circ}C$. In PL phosphatidic acid (22 -> 4%) and phosphatidylinositol (18 -> 5%) decreased but phosphatidyl ethanolamine (12->l6%) increased at $25^{\circ}C$. Percent unsaturated acid slightly decreased in NL and PL but greatly increased in GL at $25^{\circ}C$. Percent unsaturated bond slightly decreased in NL but did not change in PL and GL.

This study was performed to investigate physicochemical and textural characteristics, and antimicrobial effect for Listeria monocytogenes (LM) in low-fat functional sausages (LFFS) containing sodium lactate (SL) and potassium lactate (PL) during storage at 4℃ for 10 weeks. The LFFS treatments included CTL (Low-fat sausage control), TRT1 (SL 3.3%), TRT2 (SL 2.2% + PL 1.1%), TRT3 (SL 1.1% + PL 2.2%), TRT4 (PL 3.3%). Proximate composition for LFFS were 73.9∼75.2% moisture, 1∼2% fat and 15.5∼15.9% protein, and pH values ranged from 5.8 to 6.5. Expressible moisture (EM, %) and vacuum purge (VP, %) ranged from 22.9 to 33.0 and from 2.7 to 5.3, respectively. EM of CTL, TRT1 and TRT2 increased with increased storage time, however, no differences in VP were observed during storage time. Hunter color values (L, a, b) were not affected by the addition of SL and PL, and storage time (p>0.05). Most textural properties of LFFS were not affected by the addition of SL and PL, except for few cases, but those of CTL tended to increase with increased storage time. The addition of SL and PL into LFFS, alone or in combination, inhibited the microbial growth of inoculated LM during refrigerated storage, resulting in longer shelf-life than the control.

The luminescence properties of $In_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}As/In_{0.5}Al_{0.5}As$ multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on $In_{0.5}Al_{0.5}As$ buffer layers have been studied by using photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL measurements. A$1-{\mu}m$ thick $In_{0.5}Al_{0.5}As$ buffer layers were deposited on a 500 nm thick GaAs layer, followed by the deposition of the InGaAs/InAlAs MQWs. In order to investigate the effects of InAlAs buffer layer on the optical properties of the MQWs, four different temperature sequences are used for the growth of InAlAs buffer layer. The growth temperature for InAlAs buffer layer was varied from 320^{\circ}C to $580^{\circ}C$. The MQWs consist of three $In_{0.5}Ga_{0.5}$As wells with different well thicknesses (2.5 nm, 4.0 nm, and 6.0 nm thick) and 10 nm thick $In_{0.5}Al_{0.5}$As barriers. The PL spectra from the MQWs with InAlAs layer grown at lower temperature range ($320-580^{\circ}C$) showed strong peaks from 4 nm QW and 6 nm QW. However, for the MQWs with InAlAs buffer grown at higher temperature range ($320-480^{\circ}C$), the PL spectra only showed a strong peak from 6 nm QW. The strongest PL intensity was obtained from the MQWs with InAlAs layer grown at the fixed temperature of $480^{\circ}C$, while the MQWs with buffer layer grown at higher temperature from $530^{\circ}C$ to $580^{\circ}C$ showed the weakest PL intensity. From the emission wavelength dependence of PL decay times, the fast and slow decay times may be related to the recombination of carriers in the 4 nm QW and 6 nm QW, respectively. These results indicated that the growth temperatures of InAlAs layer affect the structural and optical properties of the MQWs.
