A sandwich ELISA (sELISA) to detect pork in processed foods was developed using goat anti-pig IgG antibodies. From the sELISA standard curve, the detection range of pork was $3-1,000{\mu}g/mL$. The cross-reactivity between the pig IgG antibodies, pork, and other meats (beef, chicken, fish, and crustaceas) was 100, 0.18, and 0%, respectively. When pork was heated for 10 min, the mean assay recoveries of pig-IgG were 79-32% at $60-70^{\circ}C$ and less than 0.11% at $80^{\circ}C$ or higher. When pork was spiked into cream soup, weaning food, fish paste, and sauce, the mean assay recoveries were 8.8, 45, 36, and 39%, respectively. In 12 commercial processed foods, the assay results coincided qualitatively with the food labels on the packages.

Purpose: Familial renal glucosuria (FRG, OMIM #233100) is a rare but relatively benign genetic condition characterized by persistent isolated glucosuria with a normal blood glucose level. We report three additional SLC5A2 mutations and examine their phenotypic and genetic characteristics in a Korean FRG cohort. We also reviewed the literature and summarized the genotypes of all Korean patients with FRG. Methods: A genetic analysis was conducted by directly sequencing all 14 exons of the SLC5A2 gene and their flanking regions in six unrelated Korean children with FRG and their family members. Novel non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms were identified and compared with known mutations that are repeatedly detected in the Korean population. Results: We found two novel mutations [c.274G>A (G92S) and c.1168C>T (L390F)] and one known [c.1382G>A (S461N)] mutation in each family and one recurrent mutation [c.1346G>A (G449D) (rs768392222)] in two pedigrees. The recurrent G449D was predicted to be "possibly damaging," with a score of 0.883 in Polyphen-2, while G92S, L390F, and S461N were predicted to be "probably damaging," with scores of 1.000, 0.999, and 0.996, respectively. Conclusions: Two novel, one previously reported, and one recurrent mutation were identified in six Korean FRG pedigrees as causative mutations of renal glucosuria. Sequence variations in the SLC5A2 gene were frequently detected in children with persistent isolated glucosuria. A long-term follow-up of this FRG cohort is needed to understand how these specific SGLT2 mutations impair kidney function and energy homeostasis.

The Pseudorabies (PR), also called Aujeszky's disease (AD), is an infectious viral disease caused by an alpha herpes virus and has domestic and wild pigs, as well as a wide range of domestic and wild animals, as the natural host. Pseudorabies virus (PRV) virions contain several envelope glycoproteins. Among them, gB, gC and gD are regarded as the major immunogenic proteins. We expressed these glycoproteins using the bacterial expression system and analyzed recombinant proteins. Expression of glycoproteins gC and gD were observed on SDS-PAGE or Western blot analysis, but gB was not. Optimal concentration of IPTG and inducing time were determined as 1.0 mM and 4 h, respectively, for the expression of both gC and gD in E. coli. A sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was the most efficient detergent in solubilizing insoluble recombinant protein.

To study the effect of surface crosslinked layer on the crosslinked poly(sodium acrylate) (cPSA) absorbent, we synthesized several surface crosslinked cPSAs with 5, 10 and 20 g of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) by an inverse emulsion polymerization method to delay the absorption of excess water in concrete. We measured the compressive and flexural strength of mortars having 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 wt% cPSA-EGDMA. We observed the increase of compressive and flexural strength of the cPSA-EGDMA added cement mortars except for the 0.5 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (20 g) added cement mortar. 1.0 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (5 g) added cement mortar showed about 16% and 10% increased compressive and flexural strength than those of plain cement mortar. To study the effect of porosity on compressive and flexural strength, we used FE-SEM and porosimeter. FE-SEM analysis showed swollen cPSMAEGDMA (5 g) filled between calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) crystals. We observed the decreased porosity of the cPSA-EGDMA added cement mortars than that of plain cement mortar. 1.0 wt% cPSA-EGDMA (5 g) cement mortar showed the lowest porosity of 16.5%.

The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 protein (XRCC1) plays important roles in the DNA base excision repair pathway which may influence the development of lung cancer. This study aimed to evaluate the potential association of the XRCC1 c.1178G>A genetic polymorphism with lung cancer risk. The created restriction site-polymerase chain reaction (CRS-PCR) and DNA sequencing methods were utilized to evaluate the XRCC1 c.1178G>A genetic polymorphism among 376 lung cancer patients and 379 controls. Associations between the genetic polymorphism and lung cancer risk were determined with an unconditional logistic regression model. Our data suggested that the distribution of allele and genotype in lung cancer patients was significantly different from that of controls. The XRCC1 c.1178G>A genetic polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer (AA vs GG: OR=2.91, 95%CI 1.70-4.98, p<0.001; A vs G: OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.22-1.90, p<0.001). The allele A and genotype AA may contribute to risk of lung cancer. These preliminary results suggested that the XRCC1 c.1178G>A genetic polymorphism is statistically associated with lung cancer risk in the Chinese population.

Seasonal occurrence of benthic algae and changes of subtidal vegetation were studied for their species composition, diversity and biomass during 1982 and 1983 at several selected sites at Juckdo Island (38$^{\circ}$12'N, 128$^{\circ}$32'E), eastern coast of Korea. Three large brown algae which played a role in change of algal vegetation through their great biomass were investigated with regard to their seasonal growth. Large brown algae such as Undaria pinnatifida, Costaria costata, Laminaria japonica, Agarum cribrosum, Sargassum confusum and S. hornerii constitute the major portion of vegetation in this area throughout the year. Algal vegetation in spring time is characterized by dominance of species U. pinnatifida and C. costata, whereas the summer vegetation by S. confusum and S. hornerii. In autumn large brown algae are shedded and only small algae, such as Chondrus ocellatus and Grateloupia filicina, remain. The vegetation in winter is dominated by the growth of U. pinnatifida and C. costata. Monthly changes in mean length and weight of randomly collected U. pinnatifida, C. costata and S. confusum are as follows; U. pinnatifida occurs from December to June and shows their maximum growth during March (120 cm in length, 201 g/individual in wet weight), its maximum growth rate is 1.4 cm/day, 3.3 g/day in this month. The growth season of C. costata is very similar to U.pinnatifida, but their average maximum length(110 cm) and weight (106 g/ind.) are lower than U. pinnatifida. The greatest growth rate is during March (1.8 cm/day, 2.0g/day). S. confusum is present throughout the year and reaches the maximum growth (102 cm, 63g/ind.) in July. Maximum growth rate (1.5 cm/day, 1.2 g/day) occurs also during this month. U. pinnatifida and C. costata show different months of maximum growth evidently during the two year. This seems to be caused by a considerable damage to the local vegetation followed by heavy storm in February 1983.

Objective : The present study aimed to evaluate the change of the content of 7 active components in decoctions produced by various proportional pairs of Coptis chinensis Franch and Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi in 'Mixed decoction (MD)' and 'Single decoction mixture (SDM)'. Methods : The samples of MDs were prepared by decocting C. chinensis : S. baicalensis with the ratios of 10 g:10 g, 10 g:20 g, and 20 g:10 g. Those of SDMs were prepared by blending each single decoction from C. chinensis and S. Baicalensis with the ratios of 1:1, 1:2, and 2:1. The samples were evaluated by high-performance liquid chromatography with statistical analyses. Results : The analytical methods, which were optimized and validated, were reliably applied to present research. The content of all components in both MDs and SDMs at C. chinensis : S. baicalensis = 1:1 ratio were reduced compared with single herb decoction. The components from each compositional herb in MDs were proportionally increased with the ratio of original herb increased, but inversely proportional to paired herb. The contents of components in MDs were significantly lower than those in SDMs at all ratios, except for high content of baicalin at C. chinensis : S. baicalensis = 2:1. Conclusion : It was concluded that MDs and SDMs as well as the proportions of herbs could affect the contents of the components from original herbal medicines. These results provide the information for the quality control of herbal medicine combined C. chinensis with S. baicalensis.

Bioassay-guided isolation of the dried roots of Aralia continentalis led to the isolation of (-)-pimara-8(14), 15dien-19-oic acid (continentalic acid) and $(24E)-Stigmasta-5,22-dien-3{\beta}-ol$ (stagmasterol). Their structures were elucidated using $^1H-NMR$, $^{13}C-NMR$, UV and mass spectra analyses. The gram-positive bacterial, including methicilline-resistant (MRSA), were more sensitive to the continentalic acid and stagmasterol than gram-negative bacterial.
