The acid and bile tolerance changes of 5 different lactic acid bacteria (LAB; Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Lactobacillus debruekii) with gamma irradiation were evaluated. The abilities of LAB to survive in the acidic conditions at the stomach and the bile acidic conditions at the beginning of the small intestine are the key functions for applying LAB to probiotics. In the results, all of LAB survived more than 50% after incubation in PBS (pH 2.5) for 2 hr, which indicated more than half of LAB are possible to pass through the stomach. However, gamma irradiation decreased the acid tolerances of LAB. The bile tolerances of all bacteria except Lactobacillus acidophilus were observed to survive at a 3% oxgall concentration in MRS, and 1 kGy of gamma irradiation to LAB did not affect any bile tolerances changes. But gamma irradiated Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus casei (3 kGy) showed decreasing survival rate with oxgall added MAS agar. In conclusion, gamma irradiation should be applied to yogurt or fermented foods with care because LAB could be changes their properties on acid and bile tolerances.

In this study, we investigated the genetic variation in the general of monocot model plant (rice) in response to various ionizing irradiations including gamma-ray, ion beam and cosmic-ray. The non-irradiated and three irradiated (200 Gy of gamma-ray and 40 Gy of ion beam and cosmic-ray) plants were analyzed by AFLP technique using capillary electrophoresis with ABI3130xl genetic analyzer. The 29 primer combinations tested produced polymorphism results showing a total of 2,238 bands with fragments sizes ranged from 30 bp to 600 bp. The number of polymorphism generated by each primer combinations was varied significantly, ranging from 2 (M-CAC/E-ACG) to 158 (M-CAT/E-AGG) with an average of 77 bands. Polymorphic peaks were detected as 1,269 with an average of 44 per primer combinations. By UPGMA (Unweighted Pair Group Method using Arithmetic clustering) analysis method, the clusters were divided into non-irradiated sample and three irradiated samples at a similarity coefficient of 0.41 and three irradiation samples was subdivided into cosmic-ray and two irradiation samples (200 Gy of gamma-ray and 40 Gy of ion beam) at similarity coefficient of 0.48. Similarity coefficient values ranged from 0.41 to 0.55.

In tissue engineering application, a fibrous structure of scaffolds has been issued as an alternative system to regulate cell survival and tissue regeneration, and electrospinning technique has been popularly used to generate fibrous meshes or sheets mimicking the structure of native extracellular matrix (ECM). However, recent strategy in the scaffold development is expanded to provide the structural property as well as a biological property of native ECM, a variety of surface modification techniques have been used to introduce biological property. In this study, we developed biomimetic poly(L-lactide-co-${\varepsilon}$-caprolactone) (PLCL) nano- and micro-fibrous scaffolds as a unique platform with structural and biological properties with native ECM using electrospinning method and gamma-ray irradiation. Surface morphology of the scaffolds was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and alteration of surface property was evaluated with toluidine blue O staining, water contact angle measurement and ATR-FTIR analysis.

We investigated the physiological responses by acute and chronic gamma-irradiation in rice. The rice, Oryza sativa L. cv Dongan, plants were irradiated with 100 and 400 Gy of gamma-rays for acute and chronic irradiation, and their morphological, chlorophyll content, MDA, proline and activities of antioxidant enzymes were examined. The plant height of chronic irradiation samples were decrease with increase of a does than the control, but the number of tiller and dry weight of shoot were increased 100 Gy. Carotenoid and chrolorphyll content were decreased of all irradiated plants than non-irradiated plants. But, MDA and proline content were increased in 400 Gy both acute and chronic gamma irradiation. And the activities of antioxidant enzymes were different as gamma-irradiation patterns.

This study investigated the effect of gamma irradiation on immune enhancing activity of Chaga mushroom extract (CME). CME was prepared by hot water extraction at $70^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours and lyophilized. Lyophilized CME powder was dissolved with deionized water at $10mg\;ml^{-1}$ and then irradiated at the doses of 10, 30 and 50 kGy by cobalt 60 gamma irradiator. The gamma-irradiated and non-irradiated CME were treated into the splenocyte separated from mouse. Cell proliferation and cytokine production of the immune cells were increased by gamma-irradiated CME and these increases were more prominent when CME was irradiated at higher doses. Therefore, it is considered that gamma irradiation can be an effective method for improvement of the immunomodulating activity Chaga mushroom extract.

Clotrimazole [1-{(2-chlorophenyl)-diphenylmethyl}-1H-imidazole, CLT] has been reported to inhibit the proliferation of vascular endothelial and act as an in vitro anti-VEGF drug. It is also shown to inhibit angiogenesis in an animal model. The radioisotope labeled clotrimazole derivative can be utilized to monitor the physiologic processes of cancer. In this study, we synthesized [$^{18}F$]fluoride labeled clotrimazole derivatives as a new tumor imaging agent for PET. The references were prepared by a refluxing with clotrimazole and an excess of fluoroalkyltosylate in acetonitrile for 36 h and clotrimazole reacted with ditosylalkane to give precursors. [$^{18}F$]Fluoride labeled reaction was performed with precursor in Kryptofix[2.2.2]/$K_2CO_3$ for 10 min at $80^{\circ}C$. The radiolabeling mixture was passed through a silica Sep-Pak cartridge to remove $^{18}F^-$. The [$^{18}F$]F-clotrimazole derivatives were synthesized with a 20~25% yield. In the radiofluorination step, we used acetonitrile and DMSO as a solvent and observed a higher yield at the acetonitrile (25%) reaction compared with the DMSO reaction (5%).

When plants undergo stress, Reactive oxygen species (ROS) which remove bad elements such as mildew and virus is activated in plant body. However, if ROS is excessively increased, plant will be harmed itself by destruction of cell and signal system and phenomenon of lipid peroxidation. In order to identify content of lipid peroxidation and activity of some enzymes scavenging ROS, phenotypical and physiological analysis was performed with two mutant lines, Till-II-877 and Till-II-894, comparing with cv. Dongan (WT). In phenotype analysis, two mutant lines give to well-conditioned growth better than WT in since 5 days after salt treatment. In enzyme activities, there was a modest difference in the content of catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) between Till-II-877 and Till-II-894, two mutant lines showed high levels in CAT contents than WT. However, they express low levels in POD contents. In MDA analysis, the content of Till-II-877 was higher than that of WT, but Till-II-894 was lower. This result indicates that two mutants have different mechanism against salt stress.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the cell proliferating and interleukin-2 producing activity of staphylococcal enterotoxin B by gamma-irradiation. Staphylococcal enterotoxin B was gamma-irradiated with the various doses of 0, 2, 20 and 50 kGy. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that gamma-irradiation caused the sharp decrease of the content of staphylococcal enterotoxin B and the effect was irradiating dose-dependent. Non-irradiated staphylococcal enterotoxin B increased the cell proliferation of splenocytes isolated from female Balb/c mouse, whereas 2 kGy-irradiated toxin significantly decreased the activity. 20 and 50 kGy-irradiated staphylococcal enterotoxin B was no effect. A similar effect on the interleukin-2 production of mouse splenocytes was observed with non-irradiated and irradiated staphylococcal enterotoxin B. It was considered to be due to the decrease of the antigenicity of staphylococcal enterotoxin B by gamma-irradiation. Therefore, these results suggest that gamma-irradiation can be effective for the decrease of the antigenicity of staphylococcal enterotoxin B as superantigen.

The electronic equipment which is exposed to high level pulsed radiation is damaged by Upset, Latchup, and Burnout. Those damages come from the instantaneous photocurrent from electron-hole pairs generated in itself. Such damages appear as losses of a power in military weapon system or as a blackout in aerospace equipment and eventually caused in gross loss of national power. In this paper, we have implemented a RDC(Radiation detection and control module) as a part of the radiation protection technology of the electronic equipment or devices from the pulsed gamma radiation. The RDC, which is composed of pulsed gamma-ray detection sensor, signal processors, and pulse generator, is designed to protect the an important electronic circuits from the a pulse radiation. To verify the functionality of the RDC, LM118s, which had damaged by the pulse radiation, were tested. The test results showed that the test sample applied with the RDC was worked well in spite of the irradiation of a pulse radiation. Through the experiments we could confirm that the radiation protection technology implemented with the RDC had the functionality of radiation protection for the electronic devices.
