  • To study the effects of metal ions on the activity of anti-oxidase enzymes, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and peroxidase (POD) and isozyme patterns of Brassica juncea have been studied after treating with CD, Cu, Zn, and Al. The activity of SOD after treating with metal ions was higher than that of untreated control. SOD activity in leaves increased by treatment of 50 ppm of Zn and 500 ppm of Al. POD in stems gave highest activity after treating with 500 ppm of Cu. When the activity was compared by plant parts, lowest POD activity was observed in leaves in which protein content was higher than other tissues. When the activity was expressed as percentage of control, SOD activity was increased after treating with metal ions. SOD activity in leaves and roots of metal treated plant was significantly increased under the metal ions stress conditions. In the roots of 50 ppm of Zn treated plant, SOD activity was extremly high. POD activity was inhibited with Cd and Zn treatment in all parts of the plant. However, in leaves and stems, there was marked increase in activity after treating with Cu. The patterns of SOD isozyme after metal treatment show that two bands were stained in all metal ion treated and that no new band appeared. POD isozyme band intensity resulting from the treatment of metal ions was in order of roots > stems > leaves, but there was no significant difference.

  • 사용자의 상황에 따라 유용한 정보를 제공할 수 있는 행위인식 기술은 최근 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 스마트폰이 보급되기 전 행위인식 연구에서는 독립된 센서를 사용하여 사용자의 행위를 추론해야 했지만, 현재는 IT산업의 발달로 스마트폰의 내부 센서를 사용해 사용자의 행위를 추론할 수 있게 되었다. 따라서 행위인식 분야의 연구가 더욱 활발히 진행되고 있다. 행위인식 기술을 응용하면 사용자의 선호도에 따라 애플리케이션을 추천하거나 경로 정보를 제공하는 서비스 등을 개발할 수 있다. 기존의 행위인식 시스템들은 GPS를 이용하기 때문에 전력을 많이 소모한다는 단점이 있다. 반면에 최근 Google에서 발표한 행위인식(Google Activity Recognition) 시스템은 Network Provider를 이용하기 때문에 GPS 방식에 비해 전력소모가 적어 휴대해야 하는 스마트폰 응용 시스템에 적합하다. 하지만 Google Activity Recognition의 성능을 테스트한 결과 불필요한 행위 항목과 일부 잘못된 상황인지로 인해 정확한 사용자 행위를 파악하기 어렵다는 것을 발견했다. 행위인식 기술을 기반으로 한 새로운 서비스 개발을 위해 더욱 정확한 상황인지가 필요하므로 본 논문에서는 GAR의 문제점을 기술하고 정확도를 높이는 개선 방법을 적용한 AGAR(Advanced Google Activity Recognition)을 제안한다. 또한 AGAR의 이용가치를 평가하기 위하여 다른 여러 행위인식 시스템과 성능과 전력소모량을 비교분석하고 AGAR을 검증하는 예시 프로그램을 개발하여 응용 가능성을 설명한다.

  • 준저리콩, 익산콩을 사용하여 콩나물 재배 과정 중 유리당 함량변화와 lipoxygenase activity 변화를 측정하였고, 키토산 처리가 이들에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 재배 3일째 자엽에서 sucrose는 71% 감소하였고 배축은 59%가 감소하여 배축보다는 자엽에서 더 빠른 감소 경향을 볼 수 있었다. Raffinose와 stachyose는 재배 초기 빠른 속도로 감소하다 이 후 감소가 완만해졌으며 배축보다는 자엽에서의 분해속도가 빠르게 나타났다. 키토산을 처리하여 콩나물을 재배하였을 때 4일 후 분해되지 않은 유리당이 sucrose와 raffinose의 경우 키토산 처리구가 대조구보다 각각 9.8, 16% 정도 많이 남아 있었으나, stachyose의 경우 대조구에 18%정도 많이 잔존하였다. Lipoxygenase activity는 L-2/3보다 L-1의 activity가 높게 나타났으며, 24시간 침지후 자엽의 L-1 activity가 1207 unit/mg에서 2072 unit/mg으로 높아졌으나 발아가 진행되면서 activity는 감소하였다. L-2/3의 activity는 재배 초기에 자엽에서 492 unit/mg, 배축에서 67 unit/mg이였으나, 재배 5일 후에는 자엽과 배축의 activity가 42, 82% 각각 감소하였다. 키토산 처리가 lipoxygenase activity에 미치는 영향을 보면 off-flavor 형성과 밀접한 관련이 있는 L-2/3 activity가 재배 5일 후 대조구 83 unit/mg, 키토산 처리구 56 unit/mg 으로 되어 키토산 처리구의 활성이 낮았다.

  • In the order to grasp their physical characteristics stemming from activity amount, this paper has divided elderly women into the following group ; those with high activity in the past, those with low activity in the present, those with high activity in the present and those with low activity in the present. The analyses of the body measurements and the pie chart, and the classification of back shapes by taking photographs have led to the following results. 1. The items of depth and girth among the body measurements were significant in the past and the present activity. Those with high activity in the past had smaller sizes in depth and girth than those with low activity. 2. From the pie chart, it was shown that those with high activity in the past had smaller sizes in every index as well as in girth than those with low activity in the past. Both those with low activity in the present and those with medium activity in the present had somewhat large sizes in waist girth, bust girth, hip girth and abdominal girth and in the indices of these items. 3. The classification of back shapes by taking photograpes has shown that those with high activity in the past had the less bent body type-42 percent of Type A and 6.5 percent of Type D. Among those with medium activity in the present, Type A was most outstanding and Type C and Type D were less, This fact shows that those with medium activity in the present keep the most normal body type. This proves that the medium activity of elderly women is desirable for keeping the normal body type.

  • Objectives: The researchers investigated the relationship among fun seeking, self-efficacy, interest in physical activity and actual physical activities of male college students, in orders to provide valuable information to professionals in health promotion. Methods: The participants were 316 male college students whose ages ranged from 18 to 30(M=22.53, SD=2.09). The questionnaires and psychological tests used in this research included the following: sub-scale of Korean Version of BAS/BIS Scale, The General Self-Efficacy Scale, International Physical Activity Questionnaires, & sub-scale of The Intrinsic Motivation Inventory for physical activity. Results: Results indicated that male students who had moderate level of fun seeking were more likely to engage in physical activities than those who showed low or high level of fun seeking. And students with the strong self-efficacy were more likely to do physical activity than with the weak self-efficacy, especially high level of physical activity. Male students who had greater interest in physical activity were more likely to engage in physical activities than those who were not interested in physical activity. A regression analysis revealed that interest in physical activity accounted for the most variance; it accounted for around 14.5% variance of actual physical activity with self-efficacy. The interaction effect of self-efficacy and interest in physical activity was significant for actual physical activity. Conclusion: This study reiterates the roles of self-efficacy and the interest in physical activity on physical activity, and found that non-linear relation of fun seeking to physical activity. These results may provide useful information for health practitioners.

  • Several commercial yogurt starter cultures (L. acidophilus LA5, L. casei 01, L. acidophilus LA100, L. bulgaricus LB207 and L. rhamnosus GG744) were investigated for antioxidant activity by using in vitro assays. From the results of the present work, all strains tested showed varying degrees of antioxidant activity. L. bulgaricus LB207 showed the highest antioxidant activity, with a linoleic acid peroxidation inhibition of 81.3%. Hydroxy radical scavenging activity, ferrous iron chelating activity, reducing power and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were also studied. L. bulgaricus LB207 showed the highest hydroxy radical scavenging activity and L. casei 01 showed the highest chelating activity. L. bulgaricus LB207 and L. acidophilus LA100 showed good reducing power. All the strains in this study showed low SOD activity. The results of the present work suggest that antioxidant activity of L. bulgaricus LB207 due to its strong hydroxy radical scavenging activity and reducing power.

  • The purpose of this study was to do an epidemiological survey of the salivary reductase activity and dental caries prevalence of the large group of preschool children and analyze the validity of the salivary reductase activity test as a caries activity test. One thousand and forty-four preschool children were examined for caries experience and salivary reductase activity by dental survey and the Resazurin Disc Test. 39.8% of children showed low salivary reductase activity, 39.4% showed middle, and 20.8% showed high. Salivary reductase activity increased as age increased. All indexes of caries experience were high when salivary reductase activity was high. There was positive relation between salivary reductase activity and caries experience. The salivary reductase activity of children with no caries experience was lower than that of children with caries experience. The salivary reductase activity of children with low caries experience was lower than that of children with high caries experience. It seemed that the salivary reductase activity test had basic validity as a caries activity test. However, the test's ability to select the small risk group of high caries susceptibility should be enhanced.

  • We examined the relationship among riboflavin intake, work activity, erythrocyte glutathione reductase activity coefficient(EGR AC)and urinary riboflavin excretion. We also attempted to determine factors affecting seasonal riboflavin status of rural women. All information about nutrient intake, work activity and riboflavin biochemical status was repeatly collected in three seasons ; farming season(June), harvest season(October), nonfarming season(February). EGR AC was negatively correlated with riboflavin intake(P<0.005) and positively correlated with the duration(min) of farming activity(P<0.005) and the percentage of lean body mass(LBM) (%) representing long term physical activity(P<0.05) in harvestseason. Urinary riboflavin excretion was positively correlated with the ratio of riboflavin intake to 1,000kcal of energy expenditure (P<0.05) in farming season and negatively correlated with the duration(min) of farming activity (P<0.05) and crude nitrogen balance(P<0.005) in harvest season. It appeared that EGR AC seems to increase and urinary riboflavin excretion seems to decrease as work activity increase. Therefore work activity would be expected to deteriorate riboflavin status. Multiple regression analysis of variables showed that in general EGR AC was affected by riboflavin and energy intakes, energy expenditure, energy balance, the duration(min) of farming activity, LBM (%). Urinary riboflavin excretion was affected by riboflavin and protein intakes, LBM(kg) and crude nitrogen balance. Crude nitrogen balance affected urinary riboflavin excretion in all seasons. The result indicated that work activity as well as nutrient intake seemed to affect riboflavin status, especially EGR AC was affected preferentially be work activity in all seasons.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze antioxidant activity and multidrug resistance reversing activity in several Korean colored soybean (Glycine max Merr.) cultivars. Antioxidant activity of methanol extracts from colored soybean cultivars was evaluated by TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substances), DPPH (1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and ABTS (2,2'-azino-bis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) methods. By means of TBARS, cultivar "Jeonnam #1" showed the highest activity until 7 days, and followed by "Black #1", "Jinyul" and "Black #3", showing lower activity than that of BHT (butylated hydroxytoluene). Methanol extracts of all cultivars proved that DPPH radical scavenging activity is dose-dependent. Methanol extract from cultivar "Jeonnam #1" showed highest DPPH radical scavenging activity, and followed by cultivars "Black #1". MDR (multi-drug resistance reversing) activity, however, showed the highest effect in "Black #3" and the lowest "Black #1" cultivar. These results suggest that seed colors of soybean may play an important role in antioxidant activity and MDR activity.
