Aim of this study was to discover the projection area of the first cervical spinal nerve. Subcutaneous injection of wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase(WGA-HRP) was done at five points of young dogs scalp and face. After two days of survival time, animals were sacrificed by perfusion through the left ventricle of the heart. Trigeminal ganglion, first and second cervical dorsal root ganglion, superior cervical ganglion, middle cervical ganglion and stellate ganglion were removed. Projection area of wheat germ agglutinin-horseradish peroxidase in vestigated into above ganglions. Projection into the first cervical dorsal root ganglion and stellate ganglion was not found. This experiment is deemed valuable for the study of neuronal connection on the central nervous system.

Water/cosolvent mixture system에 사용된 활성을 잃은 효소를 증발을 통해 재생하였다. model system으로 HRP를 이용하였을 때, 활성을 잃은 효소를 증발과 희석을 통해 용매를 제거하였을 경우, 두 경우 모두 열역학적으로 동일한 상황임에도 불구하고 증발에 의해 재생된 효소의 활성이 더 높게 나타났으며, 이는 증발이 활성을 잃은 효소의 재생에 어떤 영향을 주는 것으로 여겨진다. 형광분석법을 이용하여 효소의 구조를 간접적으로 분석하였을 때, 증발에 의한 경우가 희석에 의한 경우보다 효소의 구조적 변형이 적었음이 관찰되었다.이러한 결과들을 통해 증발에 의한 재생 효과는 구조적으로 비활성화된 효소의 활성을 일부 되살리는 기능을 하는 것으로 여겨진다. 한편 용매의 증발에 의해 재생된 효소는 초기 효소의, 유기용매 내에서의 상대적 안정성을 유지하였다.

휴믹물질의 산화중합반응은 천연 효소나 금속산화물 촉매에 의해 유도될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 천연 효소인 horseradish peroxidase (HRP)에 의한 휴믹산의 특성 변화와 이러한 변화된 특성이 정밀여과 공정에 미치는 영향을 평가하였다. 정제된 Aldrich 휴믹산(PAHA)이 HRP 및 과산화수소 존재 하에 산화중합되어 보다 크고 복잡한 분자를 형성하였으며, 크기배제크로마토그래피(SEC, size exclusion chromatography, SEC)에서도 평균분자량의 증가가 관찰되었다. 또한, HRP 및 $H_2O_2$ 주입량이 증가함에 따라 PAHA의 분자량은 더욱 증가하였다. 휴믹물질의 화학적 안정성은 산화중합반응에 기인한 휴믹 분자 상호간의 공유결합이 촉진됨에 따라 향상되었으며, 형광 분광 및 적외선 분광 분석 결과, 산화중합반응에 의한 PAHA 분자 작용기의 변화도 확인되었다. 수처리 공정에 미치는 영향을 평가하기 위해, 정밀여과를 적용한 결과, 산화중합반응 산물은 높은 분자량으로 인해 그 제거효율이 크게 향상되었다. 이는 산화중합된 자연유기물이 정밀여과에 의해 제거될 수 있음을 증명하는 것이다.

Enzyme polymerization is a benign process exploiting the unique activity of enzymes. In this study, a peroxidase-mimetic catalyst is demonstrated as an alternative to horseradish peroxidase (HRP) for the polymerization of aniline. The mimetic catalyst successfully catalyzes the polymerization of aniline monomers to produce polyaniline (PANI) in an aqueous solution. The PANI produced is rich of para-structure that is generally observed when HRP is used as a catalyst. Compared to HRP, the peroxidase-mimetic catalyst shows a considerably higher catalytic activity at neutral and weak basic conditions (pH >6.5) and at temperatures over $45^{\circ}C$, at which HRP is denatured.

A carbon paste electrode was constructed with peroxidase extracted from Horseradish and the variation of the response of the sensor with pH was investigated. Current profiles showed two highest sensitivities at two pH values respectively. In addition, two bands were observed in the electrophoretic expansion. A coincidence of the two experimental results added support to the possibility that the biosensor has two different isozymes. Assuming that current profiles are the sum of two gaussians, we deconvoluted them and determined the optimum pH of peroxidase isozymes.

The use of peroxidase in the nitration of phenols is gaining interest as compared with traditional chemical reactions. We investigated the kinetic characteristics of phenol nitration catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in an aqueous-organic biphasic system using n-butanol as the organic solvent and ${NO_2}^-$ and $H_2O_2$ as substrates. The reaction rate was mainly controlled by the reaction kinetics in the aqueous phase when appropriate agitation was used to enhance mass transfer in the biphasic system. The initial velocity of the reaction increased with increasing HRP concentration. Additionally, an increase in the substrate concentrations of phenol (0-2 mM in organic phase) or $H_2O_2$ (0-0.1 mM in aqueous phase) enhanced the nitration efficiency catalyzed by HRP. In contrast, high concentrations of organic solvent decreased the kinetic parameter $V_{max}/K_m$. No inhibition of enzyme activity was observed when the concentrations of phenol and $H_2O_2$ were at or below 10 mM and 0.1 mM, respectively. On the basis of the peroxidase catalytic mechanism, a double-substrate ping-pong kinetic model was established. The kinetic parameters were ${K_m}^{H_2O_2}=1.09mM$, ${K_m}^{PhOH}=9.45mM$, and $V_{max}=0.196mM/min$. The proposed model was well fit to the data obtained from additional independent experiments under the suggested optimal synthesis conditions. The kinetic model developed in this paper lays a foundation for further comprehensive study of enzymatic nitration kinetics.

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.

본 연구에서는 한 개의 세포와 같은 미세한 생체시료 내부의 분석 대상물질을 감지하는데 사용할 수 있는 광바이오센서를 개발하기 위한 첫 단계로서 효소가 함유된 고분자 수화젤 구형입자를 나노크기로 중합하는 방법을 확립하고 센서로서의 사용 가능성을 확인하였다. 현탁 광중합을 통하여 305 nm의 평균크기를 가지는 horseradish peroxidase(HRP)가 함유된poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) 수화젤 구형입자를 합성하였으며, 중합반응 이후 입자내부의 효소의 존재 및 활성유지를 HRP와$\H_{2}O_{2}$의 효소반응에 의한 Amplex Red의 형광산화물 생성을 통하여 확인하였다. 합성된 HRP가 함유된 PEG 수화젤 입자는 Amplex Red의 존재하에 $\H_{2}O_{2}$의 농도가 0에서 11 nM로 미량 변화함에 따라서 형광세기가 약 300$\%$ 증가함을 보여 주었다. 이러한 결과는 효소가 함유된 PEG 수화젤 나노입자를 합성하는 본 기술이 향후 미세한 생체시료 내부의 다양한 분석대상물질을 감지할 수 있는 나노크기의 광바이오센서를 개발하는데 이용 될 수 있는 가능성을 보여준다.

Polyclonal antibodies labeled with a tracer have been commonly used as secondary antibodies in immunochemical assays to quantify the concentration of antibody-antigen complexes. The majority of these antibodies conjugated with a tracer are commercially available, with the exception of few untouched targets. This study focused on the production and application of mouse anti-quail IgY as an intermediate antibody to link between quail egg yolk IgY and goat anti-mouse IgG-HRP as primary and secondary antibodies, respectively. Subsequently, the produced mouse anti-quail IgY was labeled with horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and its efficiency on enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was compared with that of commercial rabbit anti-chicken IgY-HRP. As an intermediate antibody, mouse anti-quail IgY was successfully produced with good affinity and sensitivity (1:10,000) to the primary and secondary antibodies. Subsequently, mouse anti-quail IgY was effectively conjugated with HRP enzyme, resulting in a secondary antibody with good sensitivity (1:10,000) to quail anti-V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus IgY. The detection limit was $10^5$ CFU/ml for both V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus. The efficiency of the produced conjugate to detect quail IgY on ELISA was comparable to that of the commercial rabbit anti-chicken IgY-HRP, and hence the produced and labeled mouse anti-quail IgY-HRP can be used as a secondary antibody to detect any antibody produced in quail.

The effect of a water-miscible ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate $([BMIM][BF_4])$, on the horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-catalyzed oxidation of 2-methoxyphenol (guaiacol) with hydrogen peroxide $(H_2O_2)$ was investigated. HRP maintains its high activity in the aqueous mixtures containing various concentrations of the ionic liquid and even in 90% (v/v) ionic liquid. In order to minimize the effect of solution viscosity on the kinetic constants of HRP catalysis, the enzymatic reactions in the subsequent kinetic study were performed in water-ionic liquid mixtures containing 25% (v/v) ionic liquid at maximum. As the concentration of $[BMIM][BF_4]$ increased for the oxidation of guaiacol by HRP, the $K_m$ value increased with a slight decrease in the $K_{cat}$ value: The $K_m$ value increased from 2.8 mM in 100% (v/v) water to 22.5mM in 25% (v/v) ionic liquid, indicating that ionic liquid significantly weakens the binding affinity of guaiacol to HRP.
