  • Mature embryo and leaf base segment of Korean oat were used as materials in an experiment to check plant regeneration efficiency. MS media supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), kinetin, and picloram were used for callus induction from mature embryos and leaf base segments. Three mg/l of 2,4­D and 3 mg/l of picloram in callus induction medium showed high frequency for plant regeneration from mature embryos. Leaf base segments were transferred to callus induction medium and incubated at $25^{\circ}C$ in 16/8 hr light/dark cycle for 3 weeks. Callus induction from leaf base segments of Malgwiri showed high efficiency in medium containing 3 mg/l of 2,4-D and 1 mg/l of kinetin $(91.8\%)$. In case of Samhangwiri, the combinations of phytohormones did not show significant difference. Regeneration from leaf base segments showed high frequency in shoot medium containing 1 mg/l of antiauxin, tri-iodobenzoic acid (TIBA) and 1 mg/l of 6-benzyladenine (BA). Calli induced from leaf base segments of Samhangwiri and Malgwiri in media containing 3 mg/l of 2,4-D and 3 mg/l of picloram showed high regeneration frequency. It appears that the callus initiation medium may be an important factor for subsequent plant regeneration.

  • Attempts were made in the laboratory to produce bypass fat using acid oil by precipitation and fusion methods. The degree of saponification by both of these methods was above 80 percent. Where heating facilities are not available, precipitation method could be used, otherwise, fusion method of bypass fat production is found to be more convenient, especially for commercial scale operations as handling of large volume of solutions is eliminated. Bypass fat thus produced was tested in vitro for rumen fermentation. Incorporation of acid oil in the incubation medium reduced TVFA conc. from 127.06 to 124.09 mM/l SRL and increased ammonia-N levels from 210.50 to 223 mg/l SRL indicating that the microbial activity was affected on incorporation of acid oil in the incubation medium. However, incorporation of bypass fat in the incubation medium did not significantly affect TVFA conc. as well as ammonia-N levels. In another experiment, nine rumen fistulated sheep in three groups of three each were fed bypass fat at two different levels. Dry matter disappearance in 24 h from the nylon bags suspended in the rumen of animals under different groups was found to be $47.74{\pm}1.10$, $47.55{\pm}0.21$ and $50.74{\pm}1.11$ in group I (control), group II (fed bypass fat 50 g/day) and group III (fed bypass fat 100 g/day), respectively. These studies indicated that it is possible to produce bypass fat from acid oils, a by-product of oil refining process, and its feeding did not affect rumen fermentation.

  • In order to identify relationships between oral health management behavior and subjective oral health perception and oral acid production in small and medium industry workers, an examination on oral acid production and a survey were conducted. As a result, the subjective oral health status, which is subjective oral health perception, was found to have a significant effect on oral acid production, and the worse the subjective oral health status was, the higher the oral acid production was. As the subjective oral health perception is expected to be helpful for the development of industrial oral health programs to improve oral health of workers, organizational and institutional efforts for industrial oral health education will be necessary for improvement of subjective oral health perception of workers.

  • The present study was designed to investigate biosynthetic patterns of polysaccharides under catabolic repression and derepression in Saccharomyces uvarum. Correlation coefficients between polysaccharide synthesis and polyphosphate accumulation were examined, according to the culture phase and under various phosphate concentrations (free, limited, sufficient). During catabolic derepression, biosynthesis of glycogen was enhanced. rapidly and highly in the cells grown on minimal medium, compared with those grown on the complete medium. Acid soluble glycogen type was the main component of total glycogen and alkali soluble glycogen was synthesized in small amount, after 24 hr culture, at the time of almost exhaustion of sugar in the medium. Total glycogen was accumulated highly in proportion to the amount of phosphate added to the medium. It could be postulated that type 'C' isoenzyme among ALPase was directly or indirectly correlated with the glucan synthesis. Mannan synthesis indicated maximal amount at the early exponential phase and stationary phase, and also acid soluble sugars at the stationary phase. Correlation coefficient between the mannan synthesis and poly-p-'C' accumulation, and also between mannan synthesis and phospholipid content indicated 0.866 and 0.726, respectively.

  • This study examined the relationship between chlorophyll(Chl) and ascorbic acid(ASA) as an index of freshness for vegetables, when the general consumers purchase several kinds of vegetables at the market. The leaves and fruits of several types of vegetables were divided into top, middle, and basal sections. Chl was determined by a spectrophotometer, and ASA was analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography. For the vegetable sections, we found that Chl and ASA levels were highest in the top sections, followed by the middle, and were lowest in the basal portions. For the relationship between Chl and ASA in vegetables, there were seven classifications including high Chl(above 80mg/100g of fresh weight) and high ASA(above 80 mg/100 g of fresh weight) for mallow, and kail; the second group had high Chl and low ASA(below 80 mg), such as in spinach, burdock, and perilla leaves; the third group contained medium Chl($40{\sim}80mg$) and medium ASA($40{\sim}80mg$) levels, such as for gonddalbee, angelica, pumpkin leaf and coriander; the fourth group had medium Chl and low ASA levels, as in crown daisy and lettuce; the fifth group contained low Chl(below 40 mg) and high ASA, such as in hot peppers and parsley; the sixth group had low Chl and medium ASA levels, and included broccoli, pak choi, and sweet peppers; finally the seventh group contained low Chl and low ASA levels, as in dropwort, young radishes, shallots, cucumbers and swiss chard.

  • Commercial food grade porcine-pancreatic lipase was incorporated into cheese at two different levels of concentration and ripened at $7^{\circ},\;13^{\circ}\;and\;21^{\circ}C$ Gas chromatographic analysis showed that the pancreatic lipase-treated cheese produced significantly higher levels of short-chain free fatty acids than controls. At $21^{\circ}C$ the high level of pancreatic lipase-treated cheese produced medium flavor cheese at 1 wk and close to sharp flavor cheese at 3 wk without causing distinctive defects. The low level of pancreatic lipase-treated cheese developed a number of good quality cheese. They were roughly equivalent to medium and sharp cheeses when ripened at $7^{\circ},\;13^{\circ}\;and\;21^{\circ}C$ for 3 to 15wk. Statistical analyses indicated that there were significant correlations between aged Cheddar flavor and the concentration of c6 as individual short chain free fatty acids (FFA) or C4 and C6 FFA combinations. Pancreatic lipase may be applicable for the accelerated ripening of Cheddar cheese if appropriate conditions are used.

  • A Corynebacterium sp. capable of utilizing diaminododecane (DAD) were isolated from the soil by enrichment culture. Among 9 different kinds of substituted alkanes containing CN, $NH_2$, Cl, and SH groups (monoterminally or diterminally substituted) tested as carbon source, the isolate, designated as DAD 2-3, utilized DAD, putrescine dihydrochloride, dodecane and laurylamine. Dodecanethiol, thioanisole, decanedithiol, dicyanooctane, laurylcyanide,and dichlorodecane were not utilized. When emulgen 950 was added to the medium, the growth of DAD 2-3 was slightly accelerated. Isolate DAD 2-3 grown in the medium with DAD as carbon source formed .alpha.-ketoglutaric acid. Metabolic product of DAD 2-3 grown in a medium without nitrogen source was different from that of grown in a medium with $NH_4NO_3$. When glucose, putrescine, n-dodecane and other alkane derivatives were tested in place of DAD, isolate DAD 2-3 yielded products different from those they formed with DAD suggesting specificity of DAD as a carbon source.

  • In this study, Bucillus amyloliquefaciens was adopted as bacterial source to investigate the concentration of carbon source by adding inhibitors in the batch culture. By adding acetic acid at $10g/\ell$ of initial glucose concentration, maximum dry cell density was obtained with the highest value of /$\3.9gell$ at $1.0g/\ell$ of initial acetic acid concentration. By adding acetic acid al 10g/$\ell$ of initial glucose concentration, maximum ${\alpha}$-amylase production was obtained with 331.55unit/m1 at $2.0g/\ell$ of initial acetic acid concentration. ${\alpha}$-Amylase production was decreased with the increase of initial acetic acrid concentration. By adding acetic acid to the medium, cell growth and ${\alpha}$-amylase production was higher in glucose than in maltose. By adding lactic acid to the medium, cell growth was decreased.

  • The encapsulatpd A. niger grew up inside the capsule and mycelia penetrated through the pore of the capsule membrane. The mycelia on the capsule wall became loose when the carbon source and oxygen were deficient in the medium. On the contrary, the production rate increased and mycelia made a lump tightly when the carbon source and oxygen were sufficient. Namely, number of proper capsule of unit volume in the medium was existed. The phenomenon which was swelled of capsule membrane in cultivation could prevented by adding CaCl2 into the medium. According to the time adding CaCl2 into the medium, the production rate of citric acid was influenced. In case of adding CaCl2 into the medium at 7th day cultivation, the production yield of citric acid was increased about 40 percent higher than that of adding CaCl2 initially. The production yield of citric acid using encapsulated A. niger of flask culture was influenced with oxygen supply. The production yield of citric acid ($\Delta$p/$\Delta$s) of the flask culture was increased 3.88 time by using T-flask instead of parafilm sealed flask. Therefore, the productivity and consumption rate concerning production which was taken carbon source were increased when oxygen supply was sufficient. The production of citric acid using encapsulated A. niger was increased average 30 percent higher than that of bead in between 6th and 13th day cultivation.

  • We analyzed whether lactic acid bacteria could control the expression of IL-4 and IL-13 in activated mast cells and whether these bacteria could inhibit the activity of transcription factors such as GATA-1, GATA-2, NF-AT1, NF-AT2, and NF-κB p65. We previously described a technique for identification of lactic acid bacteria with anti-atopy functionality by confirming increased expression of CD4+/CD25+/foxp3+ in T cells. We also confirmed that a double-culture method increased the antibacterial activity of these lactic acid bacteria against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In the present study, we characterized the effect of lactic acid bacteria cultured by this double-culture method on inhibition of allergic inflammatory reactions of RBL-2H3 mast cells, a cellular model of atopic dermatitis. The strongest anti-allergic effects of the lactic acid bacteria were seen in the following order: Lactococcus lactis broth cultured with medium containing Lactobacillus plantarum culture supernatant > Lc. lactis > Lc. lactis broth cultured with medium containing Lb. plantarum culture supernatant > Lb. plantarum. Thus, Lc. lactis cultured in medium containing Lb. plantarum culture supernatant had the strongest inhibitory effect on the differentiation of mast cells during allergic reactions, which may be mediated through the selective regulation of expression of relevant genes.
