This study was conducted to standardize the quality of sigumjang. The characteristic of producing method for sigumjang had smoking step. The major component of the amino acids of sigumjang was proline followed by valine, glutamic acid and alanine. Among the organic acids, only acetic acid and propionic acid were detected. The sugar component of sigumjang was composed of glucose predominantly, followed by maltose and fructose. The relation between taste components and sensory scores was analyzed by method of multiple regression analysis. Correlation between contents of taste components and sensory scores were significantly low. Among components of sigumjang inositol and fructose had the higest correlation with sensory scores. The result of multiple regression analysis, taste of sigumjang was explained about 90% with 16 taste components in case of relative value transformed with logarithm and 17 taste components in case of absolute value.

The objective of this study was to improve the Dasik through the addition of sugar alcohol(xylitol, mannitol, sorbitol, erythritol) and agar during the production of Dasik in order to complement the texture of Dasik. Dasik sample were prepared, and the sensory quality and physical characteristics of the samples were compared and the antibacterial characteristics of green tea Dasik containing sugar alcohol against oral bacteria were also examined. The results are summarized as follows. The moisture content of green tea containing sugar alcohol to improve the physical properties was over 30%. The water activity of the agar-added Dasik was higher than that of the control group. The pH was significantly higher for both the experimental group and the control group. The color L value was the brightest at 59.21 for FAOG, while the a value was the lowest for SG, and the b value was the highest for MG. In the texture analysis, the hardness of the control group was the highest at $5181.04\;g/cm^2$ for SSG. The cohesiveness was the highest at 0.16% for SG and the chewiness was the highest at 182.12 g for MG, while the lowest cohesiveness was determined to be 43.73 g for EG. As for the adhesiveness, the agar, sugar alcohol-added groups were overall negative (-) while SG was found to have the lowest negative value at -39.25 g. In the sensory evaluation, the control XYG group scored the highest in moistness, adhesiveness, chewiness, and overall acceptance. In addition, all groups except SSG exhibited antibacterial characteristics against P. bivia. In conclusion, Dasik with added agar was shown to complement the texture of Dasik due to the added sugar alcohol.

As part of our continuing attempts to evaluate biologically active compounds from fruiting bodies of cultivated fungus of Paecilomyces japonicus Yasuda, we conducted series of experiments on various fractions and compounds isolated by systematic fractionations. Our main efforts were concentrated on searching for compounds showing antitumor activities, which were tested on mice carrying Sarcoma-180 ascitic tumor. The antitumor activity was assessed by the life spans after these mice were administered Lp. with test compounds for consecutive 20 days. One of two pure compounds, which we have isolated to date, demonstrated significant prolongation of life span. ( Mean Survival Time: 30.3 days compared to that of control: 23.6 days). Structural analysis showed that this compound corresponds to D-mannitol. On the other hand, Ergosterol, another isolated pure compound didn't show efficient antitumor activity. We also obtained water-soluble fractions containing protein-bound polysaccharides and n-butantol fractions, which showed strong antitumor activities, 35.4(150%) and 32.1(136.0%) days of MST, respectively. In SRB assay, however, the test materials didn't show any toxic effects, but the level of acid phosphatase increased significantly when they were applied in cultured macrophage in vitro. Therefore, we concluded that antitumour activities might be attributed to immunostimulating rather than cytotoxic effects. Further experiments are underway to purify and structurally characterize new antitumour compounds from the active fractions.

Recent experimental work indicates latamoxef sodium used as a broadspectrum antibiotics generates oxygen-free radicals. The present study represents an attempt to investigate whether reperfusate containing Shiomarin[85% latamoxef sodium+15% mannitol] might decrease the post-ischemic recovery of cardiac function. In the investigation, twelve isolated rat hearts were subjected to 270 minutes of cold total global ischemia. After the cold total global ischemia, six hearts[KHB group] were reperfused with Krebs-Henseleit buffer solution and the other six hearts[LMS group] with Krebs-Henseleit buffer solution containing latamoxef sodium[200ug /L]. Postischemic recovery rate of heart rate, aortic systolic pressure, aortic flow, coronary flow and cardiac output at 20 minutes reperfusion was 100.66$\pm$10.38, 85.25$\pm$7.61, 78.95$\pm$6. 02, 78.85$\pm$8.86 and 79.11$\pm$6.54 percent respectively in the KHB group and 97.96$\pm$4.19, 87. 72$\pm$4.37, 81.74$\pm$6.80, 82.69$\pm$10.01 and 81.90$\pm$6.67 percent respectively in the LMS group. The hemodynamic data revealed no significant difference in the post-ischemic recovery rate of the two groups. This finding suggests that reperfusate containing Shiomarin[latamoxef sodium, 200ug /L] does not affect the cardiac functional recovery after cold total global ischemia.

This study was carried out to determine the effects of ionomycin and 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP) treatments on parthenogenesis of rabbit oocytes. The oocytes were randomly assigned to the activation treatments with either ionomycin plus 6-DMAP or electric stimulation. The oocytes were colected from the oviducts of superovulated rabbits at 13~14 hours and 19~20 hours post hCG injection and were activated with 5$\mu$M ionomycin for 5 min and 2 hours incubation in 2mM 6-DMAP. The other oocytes were stimulated by three pulses of 3.6kV/cm for 60 $\mu$sec each 30 min apart, starting 19 hours post in hCG in 0.28M mannitol solution with 100$\mu$M Ca2+ and Mg2+. The results obtained were summarized as follows: 1. Following treatment of the oocytes with ionomycin plus 6-DMAP, the cleavage rate and in vitro developmental rate to blastocyst were significantly(P<0.01) higher in the oocytes collected bet ween 19~20 hours than between 13~14 hours after hCG injection. 2. When the oocytes were treated with ionomycin plus 6-DMAP, 85(98.8%) of 86 treated oocytes extruded the second polar bodies, with the entire chromatin complements outside ooplasm. However when the oocytes were restored during subsequent incubation in the drug-free medium, the cytoplasts regain their full capacity for parthenogenetic activation and nuclear remodelling. 3. The cleavage rate and the in vitro developmental rate to blastocyst were not significantly different in the oocytes activated by ionomycin plus 6-DMAP treatment(91.2 and 45.6%) or electrical stimulation(89.6 and 34.3%).

This study evaluated the influence of cell stage of donor nucleus on nuclear injection, electrofusion and in vitro development in the rabbit to improve the efficiency of nuclear transplantation in the rabbit. The embryos of 8-, 16- and 32-cell stage were collected from the mated does by flushing viducts with Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline(D-PBS) containing 10% fetal calf serum(FGS) at 44, 54 and 60 hours after hCG injection. The blastorneres separated from these embryos were used as donor nucleus. The ovulated oocytes collected at 14 hours after hCG injection were used as recipient cytoplasm following removing the nucleus and the first polar body. The separated blastomeres were injected into the enucleated oocytes by micromanipulation and were electrofused in 0.28 M mannitol solution at 1.5 kV /cm, 60 $\mu$sec for three times. The fused oocytes were cocultured with a monolayer of rabbit oviductal epithelial cells in M-199 solution containing 10% FGS for 72~120 hours at 39$^{\circ}C$ in a 5% $CO_2$ incubator. The cultured nuclear transplant embryos were stained with Hoechst 33342 solution and the number of cells were counted by fluorescence microscopy. The successful injection rate of 8-, 16- and 32-cell-stageblastomeres into enucleated oocytes was 86.7, 91.0 and 93.9%, respectively. The electrofusion rate of 8-, 16- and 32-cell-stage blastomeres with enucleated oocytes was 93.3,89.3 and 79.0%, respectively. Development of blastomeres to blastocyst was similar with 8-,16- and 32-cell-stage donor nuclei(26.2, 25.8 and 26.6%, respectively, P<0.05). The mean number of cell cycle per day during in vitro culture in nuclear transplant embryos which received 8-, 16- and 32-cell- stage nuclei was 1.87, 1.81 and 1.43, respectively.

현재 상용화되어 있는 petri dish는 미생물 배지의 보관기간이 $4^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 15~50일 정도 되기 때문에 장기저장이 어렵다. 그래서 본 연구는 자체 고안된 LOP(Lab on a plate)와 petri dish에 고체배지를 제조하여 배지의 수분함량을 비교하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에 사용한 배지는 Bacillus cereus 배양을 위한 MYP(Mannitol Egg Yolk Polymyxin) agar로 이용하여 제조하였으며 각각 진공포장 및 비포장하여 $4^{\circ}C$와 $25^{\circ}C$의 온도조건에서 6주 동안 매주 수분함량을 측정한 결과, LOP와 petri dish 모두 비포장 조건보다 진공포장조건의 수분보호능이 우수 하였으며 진공포장조건에서는 $25^{\circ}C$가 $4^{\circ}C$보다 상대적 수분 보호능이 좋음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 비포장조건에서도 LOP가 $4^{\circ}C$와 $25^{\circ}C$ 모두 petri dish보다 수분보호능이 탁월하여 유통기간이 훨씬 더 연장될 수 있는 가능성을 보여 주어 앞으로 LOP를 이용한 장기 보관과 즉시 사용이 가능한 pre-plated media와 관련된 다양한 제품의 용기로 사용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.
