  • Chitin, a poly $\beta$-(1longrightarrow14)-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, is best known as a cell wall component of fungi and as a skeletal materials of invertebrates. Chitosan is derived from chitin by deacetylation in the presence of alkali. Chitosan has been developed as new physiological materials since it possesses antibacterial activity, hypocholesterolemic activity and antihypertensive action. However, the actions of chitosan in vivo still remain ambiguous as the physiological functional properties because most animal intestines, especially the human gastrointestinal tract, do not possess enzyme such as chitosanase which directly degrade the $\beta$-glucosidic linkage in chitosan, and consequently the unbroken polymers may be poorly absorbed into the human intestine. Therefore, recent studies as chitosan have attracted interest for chitosan oligosaccharides, because the oligosaccharides process not only water-soluble property but also versatile functional properties such as antitumor activity, immune-enhancing effects, enhancement of protective effects against infection with some pathogens in mice and antimicrobial activity (Kingsnorth et al., 1983, Mori et al., 1997).

  • Activity structures are a set of functional structures which may be used to provide a uniform framework for the description of information processing systems. The interaction of some aspects of activity structures is discussed. Intelligent systems, a subset of information handling systems, are the primary emphasis of this work. An extension to the functional structures of the activity structures is proposed. The proposed structure is a met a-structure which affects most elements of an intelligent system. The structure is concerned with describing the way uncertainty in an environment is handled by a system. An example is given which shows the importance of describing the uncertainty handling method(s) of an intelligent system.

  • 최근에 고구마는 영양성 뿐만 아니라 기능성을 함께 갖춘 건강기능식품으로 새롭게 관심 받고 있으나, 고구마의 기능성이 일반적으로 사용되는 찌기, 굽기 등의 조리방법에 의하여 어떻게 변화하는지에 대한 연구가 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 일반고구마인 연황미와 진홍미, 유색고구마인 주황미와 신자미 네 가지 품종에 대하여 항산화활성과 항암활성, 항균활성을 평가하고 찌기와 굽기에 의한 생리활성의 변화를 조사하였다. 총 폴리페놀 함량은 신자미 생 것이 73.6 mg/g으로 가장 높았고, 연황미 (3.8 mg/g)와 진홍미 (7.4 mg/g), 그리고 주황미 (7.9 mg/g)보다 높은 함량을 보였다. 조리유형별로는 신자미의 폴리페놀 함량이 생 것에서 가장 높았고, 그다음 찐 것 (41.0 mg/g)과 구운 것 (38.6 mg/g) 순으로 감소하여 굽기와 찌기 등의 조리에 의한 폴리페놀 함량의 감소를 보였다. 신자미는 DPPH 라디칼와 ABTS 양이온 소거능에서도 우수한 활성을 보였으며 신자미의 경우 라디칼 소거능이 찌기와 굽기에 의해서 감소하였으나, 이에 반해, 진홍미와 주황미는 찌기에 의해서 항산화능이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 다른 품종과는 달리, 신자미는 SOD 유사활성이 82.5%로 높은 항산화성을 보였으나, 찐 것의 경우 55.4%, 구운 것이 45.1%로 SOD 유사활성이 생 것에 비해 감소하였다. 고구마 에탄올 추출물을 유방암 세포인 MCF-7과 간암 세포인 HepG2에 처리하였을 때 세포의 성장을 저해하지 못하였고, 품종간에 또는 조리방법간에 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았다. 항균 활성도 측정에서 E. coli, St. aureus, S. typhimurium 3가지 미생물에 대해 연황미, 진홍미, 주황미는 항균활성을 보이지 않았으나, 신자미는 생육을 각각 44%, 35%, 55% 저해시켰으며 찌기와 굽기에 의해서 항균 활성이 11~24% 수준으로 감소하였다. 결론적으로, 주황색고구마인 주황미나 일반고구마 연황미, 진홍미에 비해서 진한 자색을 띄는 자색고구마 신자미는 항산화능과 항균능이 우수하였고, 이러한 신자미의 생리활성은 찌기에 의한 습열처리, 굽기에 의한 건열처리에 의해서 감소하였기에, 신자미의 생리활성을 유지하기 위해서는 생 것을 우유와 섞어 마시거나 샐러드로 활용하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 판단되었다.

  • Purpose: Leg length discrepancy causes the posture deformation, gait asymmetry, and lower back pain. The purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation among functional leg length discrepancy (FLLD), muscle activity, muscle contraction onset time and vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) during simple lifting task. Methods: Thirty-nine subjects participated in this study. FLLD was measured from the umbilicus to medial malleolus of left and right leg using a tape. The subjects performed to lift a 10 kg box from the floor to chest. The muscle activity and muscle contraction onset time of rectus abdominis, erector spinae and rectus femoris was measured using EMG system and vGRF was measured by two force plate. Pearson correlation was used to fine out the correlation among FDDL, muscle activity, muscle contraction onset time and vGRF during simple lifting task. Results: Correlation between FLLD and difference of muscle activity of short-long side was very high (r>0.9) during simple lifting task. Correlation between FLLD and difference of muscle contraction onset time of short-long side was very high (r>0.9) during simple lifting task. And correlation between FLLD and difference of vGRF of short-long side was high (r>0.7) during simple lifting task. Conclusion: This study suggests that there is high correlation between FLLD and muscle activity, muscle contraction onset time, and ground reaction force during simple lifting task. Therefore, FLLD could negatively affect the postural balance.

  • This study was aimed to evaluate the antioxidant activity and bioactive property of extracts from a purple-colored wheat variety 'Arriheuk' (Triticum aestivum L.) wheatgrass, affected by light emitting diode irradiation (LED). The wheatgrass was cultivated for 10 days after sowing in a growth chamber under the following LED conditions: R1B1 (Red:Blue = 1:1), R7B3 (Red:Blue = 7:3), and R3B7 (Red:Blue = 3:7). We examined antioxidant activity of the hot water extracts of wheatgrass using DPPH and ABTS free radicals scavenging assays. At the concentration of 10,000 ㎍/ml, the extract from R1B1 showed the highest DPPH free radical scavenging activity(79.29%), but its ABTS free radical scavenging activity was the lowest(32.0%). To evaluate bioactive property of the wheatgrass, we examined the change of natural killer (NK) cell activity affected by the wheatgrass extracts in vitro. At the concentration of 500㎍/ml, NK cell activity was most highly enhanced by the extract from R1B1(181.6%), and the activity was 176.1% (R7B3) and 144.6%(R3B7), respectively. These results suggest that the functional property of 'Arriheuk' wheatgrass would be enhanced by LED irradiation condition.

  • In an effort to obtain preventive, diagnostic and therpeutic medical and exercise training information of rheumatoid arthritis as well as to provide pertinent data to be used in development of exercise program for the management of rheumatoid arthritis, this study was conducted by using literature review. Because RA is a disease that involves both joints and muscles, its activity in the different functional classes influences the patient's ability to exercise. A patient in Functional Class 1 may perform any type of exercise because the disease involvement has not yet reached major importance. Exceptions may include hard physical exercise, running, and individual racket sports. In almost all cases, bicycle exercise is possible. Patients in Functional Class 2 and a few in Class 3 can perform most types of exercise (especially cycling, walking, heated pool exercise and even jogging) in low activity phases of RA. Although a few patients in Functional Class 3 can walk, jog, and perform similar types of exercise, most persons in this class can swim or exercise on a bicycle if the type of exercise, its intensity, and its range of motion are modified according to the patient's anatomic and pathologic conditions. Most patients in Functional Class 4 are not able to carry out complicated movements. We conclude that physical training for persons with RA has physical, psychological, and social consequences that are clearly beneficial. We recommend training be one part of the many involved in the complicated treatment of RA.
