  • 락툴로오스는 식품과 제약분야에서 기능성 성분으로 알려져 있으며, 산업적으로 많이 활용되고 있어 주목을 받고 있다. 식품분야에서는 정장작용을 위한 비피더스 인자, 제약분야에서는 주로 변비, 간성뇌증, 간질환의 합병증 그리고 혈액 내 포도당(glucose)과 인슐린 수치의 유지 등을 위하여 이용되고 있다. 락툴로오스 합성은 크게 화학적, 생물학적 방법으로 분류할 수 있으며, 화학적 방법에서는 젖당(lactose)의 알칼리 이성질체화법에 의하여 합성되지만, 생성물의 분해 및 다양한 부반응에 의한 정제의 난점과 폐기물 관리 등의 문제점들을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점들을 해결하고자, 효소를 이용한 합성 방법이 최근 연구되고 있다. 베타-갈락토시다아제(${\beta}$-galactosidase)는 젖당의 가수분해물 생산이 가능하기에 유제품 산업에서 매우 중요한 효소이며, 과당(fructose)으로 갈락토실(galactosyl) 잔기의 전달반응에 의하여 젖당으로부터 락툴로오스를 합성할 수 있다. 그러나 정제된 젖당은 매우 고가의 물질로써 락툴로오스를 합성하기에는 경제적으로 적합하지 않다. 본 총설에서는 락툴로오스를 합성하기 위한 화학적, 생물학적 공정에 대한 연구 동향을 간략하게 소개하고, 저가의 기질을 활용한 경제적인 락툴로오스 생산에 대한 연구 및 전망을 제시하고자 한다.

  • Sesamol, one of constituents isolated from sesame seed (Sesamum indicum L.) has been known to have natural antioxidant property. Nicotinic acid and clofibric acid have been used for treatment of hyperlipidemia. Sesamol derivatives prepared by conjugation with nicotinic acid (SJ-301) and clofibric acid (SJ-302) were expected to have various biological activity caused by synergistic effect of sesamol. Thus, this study were carried out to investigate the synthesis of sesamol derivatives from seasamol and antihyperlipidemia drugs and their biological activities. As a result, SJ-301 showed a stronger antihyperlipidemia activity in vivo and inhibitory effect on $TNF-{\alpha}$ release in vitro compared to the original agents such as sesamol, nicotinic acid and clofibric acid.

  • By considering the biological properties of a tumor, it should be possible to realize better results in cancer therapy. PET imaging offers the opportunity to measure tumor growth non-invasively and repeatedly as an early assessment of response to cancer therapy. Measuring cellular growth instead of energy metabolism showed offer significant advantages in evaluating therapy. Thymidine and its derivative nucleoside compounds can be changed to mono, di- and tri- phosphate compounds by thymidine kinase and then be incorporated into DNA. Their bindings are increased in highly proliferating cells due to the high DNA synthesis rate. To evaluate cell proliferation, many kinds of thymidine and uridine derivatives have been labeled with positron emitter and radioactive iodine. Compared to radiopharmaceuticals which have radioisotope labeled base ring such as pyirmidine, the radiopharmacuticals which have radioisotope labeled sugar ring are more stable in vivo and have metabolic resistance. The biological properties such as DNA incorporation ratios are highly dependent on their chemical structures and metabolic processes. This overview describes synthesis of radiopharmaceuticals and their biological properties for imaging of tumor cell proliferation.

  • Organic compounds play an important role in the area of pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and other materials, which possess useful biological activities. Generally, such biological activities are come from the interaction of the organic compounds with the receptors in biological system, such as enzymes. Such receptors are composed of the chiral building blocks such as amino acid or carbohydrate, which means the biological active sites of receptors are chiral. (omiited)

  • This study was performed to investigate the reaction characteristics of piggery wastewater for biological nutrient removal. The reaction characteristics were discussed the fraction of organics, the behavior of nitrogen, nitrification, denitrification, and the behavior of phosphorus. The fraction of readily biodegradable soluble COD was 11-12 percent. The ammonia nitrogen was removed via stripping, nitrification, autotrophic cell synthesis, and heterotrophic cell synthesis. The removal percents by each step were 12.1%, 68.9%, 15.0%, and 4.0%, respectively. Nitrification inhibition of piggery wastewater was found to occur at an influent volumetric loading rate over 0.2 NH$_{3}$-N kg/m$^{3}$/d. Denitrification rates were the highest in the raw wastewater and the lowest in the anaerobic effluent. The denitritation of piggery wastewater came out to be possible, and the rate of organic carbon consumption decreased about 10 percent. The phosphorus removed was released in the form of ortho-p in the aerobic fixed biofilm reactor, it was caused by autooxidation. The synthesis and release of phosphorus were related to the ORP and the boundary value for the phase change was about 170mV. In the synthesis phase, the phosphorus removal rate per COD removed was 0.023mgP$_{syn}$/mgCOD$_{rem}$. The phosphorus contents of the microorganism were 4.3-6.0% on a dry weight basis.

  • This study focuses on the enhancement of maskless photolithography as well as the peptide synthesis application with single crystalline silicon micromirrors. A single crystalline silicon micromirror array has been designed and fabricated in order to improve its application to the peptide synthesis. A micromirror rotates about ${\pm}\;9^{\circ}$ at the pull-in voltage, which can range from 90.7 V to 115.1 V. A $210\;{\mu}m-by-210\;{\mu}m$ micromirror device with $270\;{\mu}m$ mirror pitch meets the requirements of an adequately precise separation for peptide synthesis. Synthetic 16 by 16 peptide array corresponds to the same number of micromirrors. The large size of peptide pattern and the separation facilitate biochip experiments using fluorescence assay. The peptide pattern has been synthesized on the GPTS-PEG200 surface with BSA-blocking and thereupon the background was acetylated to reject non-specific bindings. Hence, an averaged slope at the pattern edge has been distinguishably improved in comparison to patterning results from an aluminum micromirror.

  • Recent developments in the synthesis of nanomagnesia of controlled sizes and shapes that are suitable for various applications are reviewed. Two main methods, based on liquid-phase synthesis, i.e., chemical methods and bio-based methods, are used to synthesize nanomagnesia. Conventionally, nanomagnesia was synthesized by chemical methods such as coprecipitation, sol-gel, combustion method, and so on using different chemical agents and stabilizers which later on become responsible for several biological risks because of the toxicity of used chemicals. Bio-based protocols are growing as another environmental friend method for the synthesis of various nanostructures especially nanomagnesia using biomass, plant extracts, alga, and fungi as a source of precursor material. The ideal method should offer better control of textural properties of nanostructures and decrease the necessity for purification of the synthesized nanoproducts, which sequentially removes the use of large amounts of chemicals and organic solvents and manipulation of products that are unsafe to the environment. Finally, the broad applicability of nanomagnesia in diverse areas is presented. Employment of nanomagnesia reported in several laboratory and industrial fields are valued from the standpoint of the significance of these issues for technological requests, as described in the literature. Nanomagnesia has various applications such as antimicrobial performance, removing pollutants, batteries application, and catalysis.

  • Acanthoside-D, one of major components of Acanthopanacis Cortex, is known as a ginseng-like substance. it has been known to possess diverse biological effects. Acanthoside-D has a furofuran lignan structure and the synthesis of which poses interesting and often unsolved proplems of stereocontrol. Although a few interesting syntheses providing this natural product have been reported, an intermolecular McMurry coupling - intramolecular Mitsunobu cyclization route has not yet been explored. We report here a short and efficient synthetic pathway to the total synthesis of Acanthoside-D from aryl aldehydes and methyl acrylates via Baylis-Hillman reaction, intermolecular McMurry coupling and intramolecular Mitsunobu cyclization as key reaction.
