Effect of nematicidal compounds on hatchability of sugar beet cyst nematode, Heterodera schachtii and its infective juveniles was investigated. The sugar beet cyst nematode was isolated from Chinese cabbage field in Samcheok in Korea. Acute toxicity of nematicidal compounds against infective juveniles was also tested to find the $LC_{50}$ by exposing juveniles to given dilutions of each compound. Hatchability and mortality of infective juveniles of H. schachtii were influenced by nematicidal compounds (Fluopyram 40% SC, imicyafos 30% SC, fosthiazate 30% SC, abamectine 1.68% SC, terthiophene, and Eclipta prostrata extract). Fluopyram and imicyafos yielded the lowest rates of hatching. Total hatched infective juveniles were significantly different among nematicidal compounds. Positive correlation in percentage reduction of hatching was observed in fluopyram. Furthermore, the highest mortality was also observed in the treatments of fluopyram and imicyafos ($LC_{50}$ of 0.0543 and 0.0178 ppm respectively). The study, therefore, demonstrated available alternative nematicidal compounds which could be used in the control of H. schachtii.

We cultured the rabbit inner medullary collecting duct (IMCD) cells as monolayers on collagen-coated membrane filters, and investigated distribution of the P2Y receptors by analyzing nucleotide-induced short circuit current $(I_{sc})$ responses. Exposure to different nucleotides of either the apical or basolateral surface of cell monolayers stimulated $I_{sc}.$ Dose-response relationship and cross-desensitization studies suggested that at least 3 distinct P2Y receptors are expressed asymmetrically on the apical and basolateral membranes. A $P2Y_2-like$ receptor, which responds to UTP and ATP, is expressed on both the apical and basolateral membranes. In addition, a uracil nucleotide receptor, which responds to UDP and UTP, but not ATP, is expressed predominantly on the apical membrane. In contrast, a $P2Y_1-like$ receptor, which responds to ADP and 2-methylthio-ATP, is expressed predominantly on the basolateral membrane. These nucleotides stimulated intracellular cAMP production with an asymmetrical profile, which was comparable to that in the stimulation of $I_{sc}.$ Our results suggest that the adenine and uracil nucleotides can interact with different P2Y nucleotide receptors that are expressed asymmetrically on the apical and basolateral membranes of the rabbit IMCD cells, and that both cAMP- and $Ca^{2+}-dependent$ signaling mechanisms underlie the stimulation of $I_{sc}$.

This study was intended to investigate the anticarcinogenic effect of ginseng previously elucidated by other researches in animal studies. The sister chromatid exchange(SCE) method of human lymphocytes was used as a biomarker. Based on the literature search and the results of our laboratory, smoking was used as a parameter elevating the SCE frequency of general human population. To evaluate the smoking and ginseng effect on SCE frequency, 98 male healthy factory workers aged 23 to 58 years were divided into 4 groups : smoker with ginseng (SG), smoker control(SC), non-smoker with ginseng(NSG), and non-smoker control(NSC) groups, according to their smoking habits and ginseng intake. The mean sponteneous SCE per cell for the SG(10.8$\pm$0.3) and SC(10.4$\pm$0.3) groups were significantly higher than the NSG(9.1$\pm$0.2) and NSC(9.3$\pm$0.3) groups(p<0.05). High frequency cells (HFCs, cells with 15 SCEs) in SG and SC groups were also greater than those in NSG and NSC groups. However, the SCE levels of the SG and SC groups were not associated with the personal smoking history and the number of cigaretts smoked per day. Ginseng intake did not show any effect on the increased SCE caused by smoking. There were no correlations of the elevated SCE among smoking and ginseng types, history of ginseng intake, and consumption frequencies of ginseng intake. These results does not support the findings of other researchers that ginseng could be a protective agent to DNA damage.

최근 in vitro 각질층 모델은 TEWL, 수분보유능 등 피부의 상태변화를 측정하기 위한 유용한 수단으로 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 노화에 따른 각질층의 상태 변화를 조사하기 위하여 in vitro 각질층 모델을 이용한 TEWL 측정, 각질층의 지질분석, 최외각 각질세포의 크기를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 8주령 무모생쥐의 전체지질은 82 주령 무모생쥐보다 30%가량 많았으나 TEWL은 8주령 무모생쥐가 82주령된 무모생쥐보다 더 높았다. 또한 최외각 각질세포의 크기는 82주령의 무모생쥐가 8주령 보다 더 컸다. 따라서 각질층의 장벽기능은 노화에 따라 오히려 강화되고 있으며 이는 노화에 따른 피부의 활성저하에 대응한 일련의 현상으로 간주된다.

The pharmacokinetics of CJ-50001 (recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor, developed by R&D center of Cheil Jedang Corp.) were investigated in rats and dogs. The serum concentrations of CJ-50001 were measured by a sandwich enzyme immunoassay. After single intravenous (iv) administration of Cf-50001 to rats at a dose of 5 $\mu$g/kg, the mean terminal half-life and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) were 0.96 h and 124.497g . h/ml, respectively. After single subcutaneous (sc) administration at the same dose, maximum serum concentration was observed at about 2 hours after administration, and the mean terminal half-life, AUC and the bioavailability were 1.11 h,63.58$\mu$g . h/ml and 51.07%, respectively. In repeated dosing studies, CJ-50001 was administered iv and sc to rats at a daily dose of 5$\mu$g/kg for 7 days. The pharmacokinetic parameters, such as mean AUC and terminal half-life, were no significantly different from those of single administration. Following single iv and sc administration of CJ-50001 to dogs at a dose of 5 $\mu$g/kg, mean AUCs were much higher than those of rats, due to the decreased clearence (CL). After sc administration to dogs, maximum serum concentration was observed at 2~4 hours after administration and the bioavailability was 54.60%.

We investigated the effects of the predominant lactic acid bacteria (LAB) on the fermentation characteristics and aerobic stability of total mixed ration (TMR) silage containing soybean curd residue (SC-TMR silage). The SC-TMR materials were ensiled in laboratory silos for 14 or 56 days. LAB predominant in SC-TMR silage were identified (Exp. 1). Lactobacillus fermentum (L. fermentum) and Streptococcus bovis (S. bovis) were found in the untreated materials, Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides (L. pseudomesenteroides) in 14-day silage and Lactobacillus plantarum (L. plantarum) in all silages. Pediococcus acidilactici (P. acidilactici), Lactobacillus paracasei (L. paracasei), and Lactobacillus brevis (L. brevis) formed more than 90% of the isolates in 56- day silage. Italian ryegrass and whole crop maize were inoculated with P. acidilactici and L. brevis isolates and the fermentation and aerobic stability determined (Exp. 2). Inoculation with P. acidilactici and L. brevis alone or combined improved the fermentation products in ryegrass silage and markedly enhanced its aerobic stability. In maize silage, P. acidilactici and L. brevis inoculation caused no changes and suppressed deterioration when combined with increases in acetic acid content. The results indicate that P. acidilactici and L. brevis may produce a synergistic effect to inhibit SC-TMR silage deterioration. Further studies are needed to identify the inhibitory substances, which may be useful for developing potential antifungal agents.

An aqueous ribose-cysteine model system (initial pH 5.6) was conventionally heated to the same browning at varying temperatures ($120-180^{\circ}C$), supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-$CO_2$, 20 MPa) was also applied on the same matrices for same periods at each temperature and about 20% reduction of the absorbance at 420 nm was observed as compared with sole thermal treatment. The headspace volatiles from Maillard reaction mixtures were analyzed by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) in combination with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and predominated with sulfur containing compounds, such as thienothiophenes, polysulfur alicyclics, thiols, and disulfides. Reaction temperature exhibited complex effects on volatiles formation and those effects became further complicated by the SC-$CO_2$ treatment. The formation of noncarbonyl polysulfur heterocyclic compounds and thienothiophenes was generally favored at high temperatures. Most volatiles were inhibited in SC-$CO_2$ as compared with thermal treatment alone, however, the well-known meaty aromatic compounds, such as thiols and disulfides, were obviously enhanced.

The effects of modifiers such as methanol, water diethylamine in methanol (10 v/v %), and diethylamine in water (10 v/v %) were investigated at three different concentrations (1, 5, and 10 v/v %) of the modifiers in supercritical $CO_2$ (SC-$CO_2$) in order to enhance the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) efficiency of cephalotaxine from Cephalotaxus wilsoniana Leaves. Among the modifiers employed, methanol basified with diethylamine was found to greatly enhance the extraction efficiency relative to any other modifiers employed. The results suggest that cephalotaxine in plant matrices may be readily changed from SC-$CO_2$-insoluble salt to SC-$CO_2$-soluble free base by basified modifiers. In addition, SC-$CO_2$modified with basified methanol could enhance the extraction efficiency of cephalotaxine more than 30% when compared to the conventional organic solvent extraction.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate safety consciousness (SC), cognitive-behavioral strategy (CBS), and safety behavior (SB) among university students living in dormitories on campus. Methods: The data was analyzed to compare the safety behavior by sex, safety related factors, and safety consciousness index in the SPSS 23 program using Chi-square test, t-test, Pearson correlation coefficients, and multiple regression. Results: The participants in the health and safety behaviors survey were 2,721 students who have been in dormitories on campus. On the mean of items, the Public Safety Consciousness Index (PSCI) was 93.1, SC was 26.9, CBS was 15.7, and SB was 50.4. It were significant correlations between SC, CBS, and SB among university students (r=0.74-0.78), and CBS was identified as the mediator. Finally, it was significant increase the SC, CBS, and SB by sex and participation on safety education, but decrease by age and experience of accident and disaster. Conclusions: It is necessary to develop safety education program enhancing safety consciousness and safety behavior in order to prevent accidents on campus. And it suggests that safety education should be included in regular curriculum of university to improve health status and achieve academic goals.
