우유 casein단백질을 trypsin, alcalase, neutrase, protamax, S. aureus type V8 등의 단백질분해효소를 이용하여 가수분해시키고 생성된 peptide의 철분가용화능을 측정하였을 때, trypsin과 alcalase에 의해 생성된 peptide들이 pH 6의 조건에서 각각 6.42와 $2.37\;{\mu}g/mL$를 가용화시키는 능력을 보였으며 그외의 protease들은 $1\;{\mu}g/mL$내외의 철분가용화능을 보였다. Trypsin과 alcalase에 의해 생성된 peptide를 역상 column으로 10개의 분획으로 나누어서 각각의 분획의 pH6에서의 철분가용화능을 측정한 결과, trypsin의 경우 분획 5에서 가장 높은 철분가용화능$(2.33\;{\mu}g/mL)$이 발견되었으며 alcalase의 경우에는 분획 7이 가장 높은 철분가용화능$(1.56\;{\mu}g/mL)$을 보였다. 이들 철분과 결합력이 있는 peptide를 분리하기 위하여 IMAC의 방법을 이용하여 철분을 chelating sepharose fast flow column에 고정화 시키고 이들 철분에 흡착하는 peptide의 분리를 시도한 결과, trypsin이나 alcalase에 의해 생성된 peptide중 철분을 가용화시키는 능력이 높은 peptide들이 IMAC에 의해 효과적으로 분리되었다.

Weakly coordinating anions show little affinity for binding to unfunctionalized iron(II) porphyrins. The electron-deficient 5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphinatoiron(II) compound is utilized in this study to demonstrate solution coordination by chloride, bromide and acetate ions. The binding strength of anions to the iron(II) porphyrin is reflected by a systematic change in pyrrole proton chemical shift in $^1H$ NMR spectra; the pyrrole resonance moves downfield when the ${\sigma}$-donor ability of anions is decreased.

The objective of this study was to develop a new method to separate phosvitin from egg yolk without using organic solvents. Phosvitin was extracted from yolk granules using 10% NaCl or 10% $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ (final concentration) and then treated with heat to precipitate the lipoproteins from the extracted solution. The optimal pH for the phosvitin extraction from yolk granules was determined, and the iron-binding ability of the extracted phosvitin (final product) was tested. Adding 10% $(NH_4)_2SO_4$ disrupted the granules, and the subsequent thermal treatment at $90^{\circ}C$ for 1 h precipitated low density and high density lipoproteins, which enabled separation of phosvitin by centrifugation. The phosvitin concentration in the extract was significantly higher when the pH of the solution was adjusted to pH ${\geq}9$. The purity and recovery rate of phosvitin at the end of the separation process were approximately 78% and 56%, respectively. The separated phosvitin was confirmed to have ferrous and ferric iron binding ability. The advantages of this new method compared with the traditional methods include no organic solvents and high-priced equipment are needed for the separation. Also, this method is more environment and consumer friendly than that of the traditional methods.

Staphylococcus aureus is known to be capable of utilizing transferrin-bound iron, via both siderophore­and transferrin-binding protein (named IsdA)-mediated iron-acquisition systems. This study was designed in order to determine which iron-acquisition system plays the essential or dominant role with respect to the acquisition of iron from human transfenin, in the growth of S. aureus. Holotransferrin (HT) and partially iron-saturated transferrin (PT), but not apotransferrin (AT), were found to stimulate the growth of S. aureus. S. aureus consumed most of the transferrin-bound iron during the exponential growth phase. Extracellular proteases were not, however, involved in the liberation of iron from transferrin. Transferrin-binding to the washed whole cells via IsdA was not observed during the culture. The expression of IsdA was observed only in the deferrated media with AT, but not in the media supplemented with PT or HT. In contrast, siderophores were definitely produced in the deferrated media with PT and HT, as well as in the media supplemented with AT. The siderophores proved to have the ability to remove iron directly from transferrin, but the washed whole cells expressing IsdA did not. In the bioassay, the growth of S. aureus on transferrin-bound iron was stimulated by the siderophores alone. These results demonstrate that the siderophore-mediated iron-acquisition system plays a dominant and essential role in the uptake of iron from transferrin, whereas the IsdA-mediated iron-acquisition system may play only an ancillary role in the uptake of iron from transferrin.

솔잎과 녹차의 열수와 에탄올 추출물을 이용하여 free radical 반응 및 지방산화에 미치는 영향과 아질산염 소거작용을 검토하였다. 각종 항산화제와 항산화력 비교에서 추출물 농도별 지방산화 억제능력은 0.1%보다는 0.3%가 낮은 TBARS값을 나타내었고, iron sources에 대한 binding 능력은 열수추출물이 우수하였다. Deoxyribose상에서의 hydroxyl radical 포집능력은 솔잎과 녹차 에탄올추출물이 대조구 보다 낮은 TBARS값을 나타내었다. 추출물의 iron 함량은 솔잎 에탄올 추출물이 가장 높은 함량을 나타내었으며, ascorbic acid 함량은 녹차의 열수와 에탄올 추출물에서 높은 값을 나타내었다. 전자공여능은 열수추출보다는 에탄올 추출물이 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 또한 솔잎과 녹차추출물은 각종 항산화제에 비하여 높은 전자공여능을 나타내었다. 아질산염 소거작용은 pH의 감소에 따라 높게 나타났으며, 0.3%의 솔잎과 녹차 추출물은 pH 1.2와 pH 3.0에서 95% 이상의 소거능을 나타내었으며, ascorbic acid 자체보다도 높은 소거능을 나타내었다. 이상의 결과로 보아 솔잎과 녹차추출물은 각종 육제품 제조시 첨가물로서 산화방지 효과 및 아질산염 소거제로서의 사용을 시사하는 것이다.

Ability of iron acquisition of pathogenic microorganisms functions as a virulence factor. Candida albicans, a fungal pathogen that requires iron for growth, is susceptible to growth retardation by high-affinity iron binding proteins such as transferrin. Recently, we reported that C. albicans could utilize the heme as a part of heme-containing proteins dissociated by heme oxygenase, CaHMX1. In search of another pathway that C. albicans can use to bypass the growth regulation produced by iron limitation, this present study examined utilization of non-candidal siderophores such as Desferal and rhodotorulic acid (RA) for acquisition of inorganic iron by the fungus. C. albicans secreting no siderophores was cultured in iron-free (pretreated with apotransferrin for 24 h) (culture medium). Once growth of the yeast reached stasis from iron starvation, a siderophore was added to the culture media. Results showed that cultures containing apotransferrin within a dialysis membrane recovered growth to the level of untreated controls, whereas C. albicans yeast cells in direct contact with soluble iron-free (apo) transferrin recovered growth only partially. When static growth from iron limitation was reached, the addition of siderophore-apotransferrin complex to culture medium also permitted the yeast to recover growth from apotransferrin growth regulation. All the data show that C. albicans can utilize the non-candidal siderophores for iron acquisition under transferrin regulation as can pathogenic bacteria.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of Pine needle extract on lipid oxidation and free radical reaction in iron sources reacted with active oxygen species. The results were summarized as follow; The pine needle extracts didn`t show a distinct effect on reduction of lipid oxidation if the iron ion didn`t exist in oil emulsion. The pine needle extracts played role as a strong chelating agents to bind iron ion if Ferrous iron(Fe\ulcorner) exist in oil emulsion. Ferric iron(Fe) was lower effect than Ferrous iron(Fe) on free radical reaction in oil emulsion. And also, the Fe\ulcorner reacted with pine needle extract did not show distinct effect on free radical reaction, compared to Fe\ulcorner reacted with pine needle extract. And also, Pine needle extracts reacted with H\ulcornerO\ulcorner were tended to show a low oxygen scavenging ability in case of H\ulcornerO\ulcorner only was existed, compared to those of H\ulcornerO\ulcorner + Fe\ulcorner complex. Pine needle extracts were the most powerful Fe\ulcorner binding agents, compared to other strong synthetic antioxidants such as EDTA and DTPA.

솔잎의 제조방법별 열수추출물(HPNP, CPNP, FPN)의 항산화성을 검토하기 위하여 in vitro상에서 실험을 수행하였다. 각 추출물들의 지방산화 억제능을 측정한 결과, $Fe^{2+}$이온 첨가구에서는 HPNP와 FPN이 $Fe^{2+}$ 이온 binding능력이 우수하였으나, CPNP는 오히려 지방산화를 촉진하였고, $Fe^{3+}$이온 첨가구에서는 $Fe^{3+}$이온 binding능력은 없는 것으로 나타났다. 활성 산소종 존재 하에서 솔잎추출물의 첨가가 지방산화에 미치는 영향은 활성산소종보다 지방산화도가 오히려 높게 나타났으며, 가장 낮은 값을 나타낸 FPN도 $KO_2$보다 높게 나타나 포집능력은 없는 것으로 나타났다. 지방산화를 촉진하는 iron 함량은 ferrous iron과 total iron 모두 CPNP가 가장 높게 나타났고, 다음으로 HPNP, FPN순으로 나타났다. 항산화제인 ascorbic acid함량은 FPN, HPNP, CPNP 순으로 나타났다. 산화성 활성 free radical에 전자를 공여하여 산화를 억제시키는 척도인 전자공여능은 HPNP, CPNP, FPN순이었고, HPNP의 전자공여능이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. Speroxide dismutase (SOD) 유사활성을 측정한 결과 HPNP, CPNP, FPN순으로 나타나 SOD 유사활성능은 HPNP가 가장 우수하였다. 솔잎추출물을 각기 다른 pH에서 측정한 아질산염 분해능은 반응용액의 pH가 낮을수록 아질산염 분해능이 높게 나타났고 특히, pH 1.2에서 높은 분해능을 나타내었다.

Phosvitin was extracted from a chicken egg yolk and the iron-binding, along with antioxidative activity of the extracted phosvitin, was determined after mixing with ground beef at the concentrations of 100 and 500 mg/kg of meat. The electrophoretic pattern of the extracted phosvitin on SDS-PAGE was found to be identical to that of the standard phosvitin. The extracted phosvitin at $1,000{\mu}g$/mL showed an ability to bind approximately 65% of the iron in a 3 mM iron solution. Lipid oxidation was inhibited in the ground beef mixed with 500 mg/kg of the extracted phosvitin, during storage at $4^{\circ}C$ compared to that of the control (p<0.05). Additionally, color stability of ground beef containing the extracted phosvitin was enhanced (p<0.05). The pH, cooking loss, texture, and sensory properties of the ground beef were not affected, by adding up to 500 mg/kg of the extracted phosvitin. This result suggests that the phosvitin extracted from egg yolk could be used as an antioxidant reagent. In particular, phosvitin would be more amenable for use in meat products because it is a natural protein derived from animal products.

This study investigated the relationship of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection to iron-deficiency anemia in high school girls. Four hundred and fourty-five subjects resided in Ulsan City in Korea were evaluated by questionnaire or blood analysis for serum indicators of iron status, daily nutrient intakes, symptoms of anemia, and H. pylori IgG antibody status. In H. pylori infected subjects, total energy intake of was 1534.14±350.81 kcal (73.0% of the Korean RDA), the iron intake of subjects was 11.38±3.90 mg (71.1% of Korean RDA) and calcium intake was 467.63±175.96 mg (58.3% of the Korean RDA). Carbohydrate (p < 0.05), vitamin A (p < 0.05), vitamin C (p < 0.01) intakes were significantly lower in infected subjects than in non-infected subjects. The prevalence of anemia (hemoglobin (Hb) < 12 g/dL.) in H. pylori infected subjects was 22.7% as compared to 14.7% in non-infected subjects. The mean serum ferritin of infected subjects (21.71±21.50 ng/mL) was significantly lower than in non-infected subjects (p < 0.05) (as was the mean Hb concentration (12.54±1.51 g/dL) and hematocrit (37.99±3.64%)). Total iron binding capacity (TIBC) of H. pylori infected subjects (449.09±78.23 ㎍/dL) was significantly higher than that of non-infected subjects (432.99＋76.15 ㎍/dL) (P < 0.05). The levels of iron, red blood cell (RBC) and transferrin saturation were similar in infected and non-infected subjects. Two symptoms of anemia, 'pale face (p < 0.01)' and 'decreased ability to concentrate (p < 0.005)', were significantly higher in H. pylori infected subjects than in non-infected subjects. High school girls are known to be more vulnerable to iron deficiency than other age groups, and this research demonstrates that infection with H. pylori increases their risk of iron-deficiency anemia.
