This work was to improve antimicrobial activities of horseradish by encapsulated with edible biopolymers such as lecithin and gelatin since it has been difficult to directly use horseradish extracts into foods and food containers due to its strong and undesirable flavors. It was shown that most of the nanoparticles containing the extracts were well formed in round shape with below 400 nm diameter as well as fairly stable and less odd flavors in various pH ranges by measuring zeta potentials. The encapsulation efficiencies of nanoparticles were estimated as 66.6% and 53.4% for lecithin and gelatin, respectively. Minimal Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of both nanoparticles against G(+), Listeria monocytogenes and G(-), Salmonella typhimurium were also measured as 79 ppm based on AIT concentrations in the extracts, whose activities were about 65% higher than the case of adding crude extract. It was also found that the nanoparticles efficiently penetrated into the cell membrane and started to destruct the cells after 6 hours cultivation under Transmision Electron Microscopy observation. These results prove that the nano-encapsulation of the horseradish extracts can be employed to directly treat into the foods and food containers for antimicrobial purposes with the aids of aerosolization system, by using small amounts of the extracts and having less flavors due to masking effects of nanoparticles.

Alakaline phosphatase (ALP)- or horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-antibody conjugate was used frequently on the immunological detection methods such as enzyme-linked immunosobent assay (ELISA), immunobolt, immunohistochemistry. The classical enzyme-antibody coupling method by one-step (direction) injection of glutaraldehyde bring into being disadvantage such as low sensitivity of antigen detection because of homopolymers. This study was modified with the dialysis glutaraldehyde method to provide simple coupling through E-amino residues present in most protein. The dialysis glutaraldehyde coupling effects were better than the classical one-step glutaraldehyde injection in antigen detection of ELISA and immunobolt. Optimal dose of the dialysis glutaraldehyde solution was 0.10-0.25 %. This results suggest that the dialysis glutaraldehyde coupling method can readily applied to antigen detection of in vitro and in vivo.

The objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of odor reducing agents on the levels of pH, total carbon, total nitrogen, and odorous compounds [phenols, indoles, short chain fatty acid (SCFA), branched-chain fatty acid (BCFA), and ammonium nitrogen] of swine manure during the spring season (temperature around $20^{\circ}C$). Odor reducing agents included horseradish powder, mushroom waste powder, and almond hull powder. A manure sample (15 L) was taken from the pit under the pens of a swine feeding operation and incubated with 0.03% horseradish powder, 1% mushroom waste powder, and 1% almond hull powder, respectively, in acryl chambers for 14 days. Addition of almond hull powder showed the lowest pH (p < 0.05) and the highest level of total carbon (p < 0.05) among treatments of odor reducing agents. Although addition of odor reducing agents increased the level of phenols (p < 0.05), addition of almond hull powder decreased the level of indoles (p < 0.05). Levels of SCFA and BCFA were higher in almond hull powder than those in control (p < 0.05). Taken together, the results from our current study showed that odor reducing agents can be used for reducing the odor of swine manure by providing fermentable carbohydrates. At $20^{\circ}C$, however, the function of odor reducing agents might be decreased due to lower microbial activity.

A new approach to fabricate an enzyme electrode was described based on the immobilization of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) on dithiobis-N-succinimidyl propionate (DTSP) self-assembled monolayer (SAM) formed on gold-nanoparticles (Au-NPs) which were electrochemically deposited onto glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. The overall surface area and average size of Au-NPs could be controlled by varying deposition time and were examined by Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). The $O_2$ reduction capability of the surface demonstrated that Au-NPs were thermodynamically stable enough to stay on GCE surface. The immobilized HRP electrode based on Au-NPs/GCE presented faster, more stable and sensitive amperometric response in the reduction of hydrogen peroxide than a HRP immobilized on DTSP/gold plate electrode not containing Au-NPs. The effects of operating potential, mediator concentration, and pH of buffer electrolyte solution on the performance of the HRP biosensor were investigated. In the optimized experimental conditions, the HRP immobilized GCE incorporating smaller-sized Au-NPs showed higher electrocatalytic activity due to the high surface area to volume ratio of Au-NPs in the biosensor. The HRP electrode showed a linear response to $H_2O_2$ in the concentration range of 1.4 $\mu$M-3.1 mM. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant ($K _M\; ^{app}$) determined for the immobilized HRP electrodes showed a trend to be decreased by decreasing size of Au-NPs electrodeposited onto GCE.

부식형성과정에서 nitroaromatics와 그 환원산물들의 구조에 따른 bound residue형성 양상을 밝히기 위하여 nitrotoluene류, nitrophenol류와 그 환원형태의 화합물 및 nitro기를 가진 살충제 parathion과 amino기를 가진 제초제 asulam을 단독으로 또는 부식을 구성하는 humic monomer들이 존재하는 반응 조건에서 laccase와 HRP를 촉매로 사용하여 그 반응 양상을 조사하였다. Laccase와 HRP를 촉매로 하여 반응시킨 경우, humic monomer의 유무, 종류, nitro기의 결합위치와 수에 관계없이 nitrotoluene류와 nitrophenol류는 laccase와 HRP에 의해 거의 전환되지 않았고, aminotoluene류 및 amino-nitrophenol류는 전부 전환되었다. 일부가 환원된 형태인 amino-nitrotoluene류는 humic monomer에 따라 다른 전환율을 나타내는 데, catechol, syringaldehyde와 protocatechuic acid에서 가장 높은 전환율을 나타내었다. Nitro기가 있는 살충제 parathion은 humic monomer가 존재하는 반응 조건에서 거의 전환되지 않았고, 그 분해산물 4-nitrophenol의 경우도 protocatechuic acid를 제외하고는 거의 전환되지 않았다. Amino기가 있는 제초제 asulam의 경우, humic monomer가 존재하지 않는 조건에서는 거의 전환되지 않았지만 catechol, syringaldehyde, protocatechuic acid 및 caffeic acid의 경우, 비교적 높은 전환율을 나타났다.

The dependence of the catalytic properties of horseradish peroxidase on the structural changes of ionic liquids was investigated with two water-miscible ionic liquids, N-butyl-3methypyridinium tetraftuoroborate ([$BMP_y$][$BF_4$]) and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium methylsulfate ([BMIM][$MeSO_4$]), each of which shares an anion ($BF_4^-$) or a cation ($BMIM^+$) with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetraftuoroborate ([BMIM][$BF_4$]), respectively. The oxidation of guaiacol (2-methoxyphenol) with $H_2O_2$was used as a model reaction. In order to minimize the effect of solution viscosity on the kinetic constants of the enzymatic catalysis, the enzymatic reactions for the kinetic study were performed in water-ionic liquid mixtures containing 25% (v/v) ionic liquid at maximum. Similarly to the previously reported results for [BMIM][$BF_4$], as the concentration of [$BMP_y$][$BF_4$] increased, the $K_m$value increased with a decrease in the $k_{cat}$value: the $K_m$value increased markedly from 2.8 mM in 100% water to 12.6 mM in 25% (v/v) ionic liquid, indicating that ionic liquid significantly weakens the binding affinity of guaiacol to the enzyme. On the contrary, [BMIM][$MeSO_4$] decreased the Km value to 1.4 mM in 25% (v/v) ionic liquid. [BMIM][$MeSO_4$] also decreased $k_{cat}$more than 3-folds [from 13.8 $s^{-1}$in 100% water to 4.1 $s^{-1}$in 25% (v/v) ionic liquid]. These results indicate that the ionic liquids interact with the enzyme at the molecular level as well as at a macroscopic thermodynamic scale. Specifically, the anionic component of the ionic liquids influenced the catalysis of horseradish peroxidase in different ways.

과산화수소를 이용한 펜톤(Fenton)산화법은 수처리 및 토양 복원분야에서 활용되는 친환경 산화방법이다. 이 방법으로 오염물질을 제거할 때, 오염물의 농도에 따라 과산화수소의 농도를 적절하게 조절하는 것이 상당히 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 HRP (horseradish peroxidase) 효소를 이용한 전기화학적 바이오센서를 제조하고 효소의 활성과 과산화수소의 검출 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. SPCE (Screen Printed Carbon Electrode)의 작업 전극 표면에 키토산과 AuNP를 이용하여 HRP를 전착하였다. 이 후, 전위주사법(CV)과 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법(EIS)을 이용하여 효소의 고정화를 확인하였다. 또한 시간대전류법(CA)과 UV 분광법으로부터 HRP 효소의 활성을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 제조한 바이오센서를 PBS 전해질에 담그고 과산화수소를 적정하여 CA 분석으로부터 전극에서 발생하는 전류를 측정하였다. 발생 전류는 과산화수소의 농도에 대하여 선형적으로 증가하였으며, 전류로부터 과산화수소의 농도를 예측할 수 있는 검정곡선을 도출하였다.
