SLES를 주성분으로 사용한 액체세정제는 공기 중에 노출하여 방치하는 경우 표면에 피막이 형성되는 경우가 있다. 이는 제형 중의 수분이 증발하면서 세정제 주성분인 계면활성제의 농도변화로 인한 미셀의 상변화로 판단된다. SLES는 30~60% 영역에서 강한 육방정계 액정상이 나타나고, 60% 이상에서는 라멜라 액정상을 보인다. 본 연구에서는 SLES 주성분으로 사용된 액체세정제의 표면 겔링 현상은 내용물에서 수분 증발로 인하여 발생하는 현상이다. 액체세정제에서 수분이 증발되면서 계면활성제의 농도가 높아지는 결과였다. 표면 겔링 상태는 편광현미경으로 관찰한 결과 혼합 계면활성제 시스템의 액정상으로 확인되었다. 결론적으로 SLES를 주성분으로 사용하는 처방에서 겔링 필름 형성을 방지하기 위하여 수용성이 좋은 AOS를 증량하고 액정형성을 방지할 수 있는 이차 계면활성제인 SAS를 도입하고, 하이드로트로프로 SXS와 PEG1500을 적용하였다. 이와 같이 개선된 액체세정제 처방4와 5는 공기 중에 노출되어도 표면에 피막이 형성되는 겔링현상을 방지할 수 있었다.

In order to search for anticancer agent as therapy of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) from Korean traditional prescriptions, we selected 58 traditional prescriptions based on a review of the Korean traditional medicine books. Among the selected traditional prescriptions, only water extracts of paedoksan (敗毒散) showed relatively good cytotoxicity at the concentration of $50{\mu}g/ml$. Additionally, we evaluated cytotoxicity for various paedoksans and each herbal ingredient in paedoksans. The root of Anthriscus sylvestris exhibited more cytotoxic effect than any other ingredients in paedoksans. Bioactivity-guided fractionation of the MC layer of Anthriscus sylvestris led to the isolation of deoxypodophyllotoxin (DPT). DPT exhibited dose-dependently significant cytotoxicity against OSCC and MPM cell with nM range. Therefore, DPT from A. sylvestris might be a potential candidate as an effective anticancer therapeutic agent for OSCC and MPM.

The root of Aralia continentalis Kitagawa (Araliaceae) have been used as an analgesic and fever remedy, and for treatment of rheumatism in Chinese medicine, whereas the young leaves are used for ingredient of salad. Antioxidant activity of the young leaves of A. continentails was determined by measuring lipid peroxide produced when a mouse liver homogenate was exposed to the air at $37^{\circ}C$, using 2-thiobarbituric acid (TBA) and by evaluation the radical scavenging activity on 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical. Chromatographic separation of active fraction led to the isolation of six flavonoids, among which quercetin, hyperoside and kaempferol showed strong antioxidant activities, while 6"-O-acetyl astragalin, astragalin and trifolin were inactive. Adenosine, oleanolic acid 28-O-glucosyl ester and salsoloside C methyl ester isolated from the somewhat active BuOH fraction exhibited no antioxidant activities.

This study developed a natural ingredient as a functional food possessing properties of attenuation of hypertension and cardiovascular hypertrophy. In a previous study hydrolysates obtained from chicken leg bone protein using Alcalase strongly inhibited angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) in vitro. In particular, hydrolysate (A4H) from four hours of incubation exhibited the highest ACE inhibitory activity (IC50 = 0.545 mg/ml). A4H was selected as a potent ACE inhibitor and orally administrated to spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) for eight weeks to investigate attenuating effects on age-related development of hypertension and cardiovascular hypertrophy. Results showed that treatment with A4H of SHRs attenuated the development of hypertension as effectively as the clinical antihypertensive drug captopril. Moreover, a significantly lower heart to body weight ratio and thinness of coronary arterial wall was observed in SHRs that had been treated with A4H or captopril. The results suggest that A4H can be utilized in developing an ACE inhibitor as a potential ingredient of functional foods to alleviate hypertension and cardiovascular hypertrophy.

Glutamate causes neurotoxicity through formation of reactive oxygen species and activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. MAPK phosphatase-1 (MKP-1) is one of the phosphatases responsible for dephosphorylation/deactivation of three MAPK families: the extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 (ERK-1/2), the c-Jun N-terminal kinase-1/2 (JNK-1/2), and the p38 MAPK. In this report, the potential involvement of MKP-1 in neuroprotective effects of curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric (Curcuma longa), was examined using HT22 cells. Glutamate caused cell death and activation of ERK-1/2 but not p38 MAPK or JNK-1/2. Blockage of ERK-1/2 by its inhibitor protected HT22 cells against glutamate-induced toxicity. Curcumin attenuated glutamate-induced cell death and ERK-1/2 activation. Interestingly, curcumin induced MKP-1 activation. In HT22 cells transiently transfected with small interfering RNA against MKP-1, curcumin failed to inhibit glutamate-induced ERK-1/2 activation and to protect HT22 cells from glutamate-induced toxicity. These results suggest that curcumin can attenuate glutamate-induced neurotoxicity by activating MKP-1 which acts as the negative regulator of ERK-1/2. This novel pathway may contribute to and explain at least one of the neuroprotective actions of curcumin.

This study was conducted to evaluate the sanitary performance and knowledge of elementary school foodservice employees. The specific aim of this study was to decipher why employees cannot apply learned knowledge to real work situations. In total, 437 foodservice operation employees attended a regular sanitary education program under the auspices of Seoul Gangdong and Gangseo district offices. The five sanitary practice performance evaluators included personal hygiene, ingredient control, process control, safety management, and sanitary education. These dimensions were self-evaluated using the Likert 5-point scale. Collected data were subjected to descriptive and comparative analysis using SPSS (Version 12.0, SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA) statistical package. The main results are summarized as follows: 93.6% of the respondents were women and 57% were aged between 40$\sim$49. Total mean score of the five sanitary performance evaluators was 4.73 for elementary school. Ingredient control score was 4.86, process control 4.80, and personal hygiene 4.79. But the sanitary education field score was 4.48, which was significantly lower than the total mean score. Safety management score was 4.73. The main source of sanitary education for school foodservice employees was verbal education.

Proteomic analysis of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from biological fluid is a powerful approach to discover potential biomarkers for human diseases including cancers, as EV secreted to biological fluids are originated from the affected tissue. In order to investigate significant molecules related to the pathogenesis of bladder cancer, EVs were isolated from patient urine which was analyzed by mass spectrometry based proteomics. Comparison of the EV proteome to the whole urine proteome demonstrated an increased number of protein identification in EV. Comparative MS analyses of urinary EV from control subjects and bladder cancer patients identified a total of 1,222 proteins. Statistical analyses provided 56 proteins significantly increased in bladder cancer urine, including proteins for which expression levels varied by cancer stage (P-value < 0.05). While urine represents a valuable, non-invasive specimen for biomarker discovery in urologic cancers, there is a high degree of intra- and inter-individual variability in urine samples. The enrichment of urinary EV demonstrated its capability and applicability of providing a focused identification of biologically relevant proteins in urological diseases.

The purpose of this research relates to the development of natural preservatives. Here, Samultang ingredients (Rehmannia glutinosa, Cnidium officinale, Paeonia lactiflora and Angelica gigas) were extracted with distilled water and 70% ethanol, and the antibacterial and antioxidative activities of the extracts were tested. The highest polyphenol contents were found in the water and ethanol extracts of Paeonia lactiflora (100 g) at 843.2 mg and 721.1 mg, respectively (p<0.05). The ethanol extract of Cnidium officinale demonstrated antibacterial activity against L. monocytogenes and S. aureus, and that from Paeonia lactiflora against S. aureus. The electron donating abilities (EDA) of the water extracts ranged from 67 to 84%, and those of the ethanol extracts ranged from 68 to 84% at 1,000 ppm. The superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities of the water extracts ranged from 47 to 50%, and those of the ethanol extracts ranged from 50 to 56% at 1,000 ppm. The nitrite scavenging abilities (NSA) of the water extracts at 1,000 ppm of the water extracts ranged from 30 to 49%, and those of the ethanol extracts ranged from 42 to 54% at pH 1.2, respectively. The NSAs of the extracts were highest at pH 1.2, and then decreased with increasing pH. The highest levels of antibacterial and antioxidant activity occurred with the water and ethanol extracts of Paeonia lactiflora, which had the highest polyphenol content among the Samultang ingredients. Over all, the ethanol extracts of the Samultang ingredients had higher activities than the water extracts. Considering the combined results, one can conclude that Samultang ingredient extracts would be useful as natural preservatives in the development of health foods.
