The studies on the screening and properties of Raw Starch Saccharifying Microorganism were as follows;Apotent mold strain was selected and screened to digest raw starch, which was classified as a strain of Aspergillus sp. SN-871. The crude enzyme production was maximized when grown on wheat bran media for 5 days at $30^{\circ}C$ and pH 4.0. The stable range of pH was 2 to 5.

A raw starch saccharifying enzyme from Aspergillus sp. SN-871 was purified by ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-cellulose column chromatography, CM-Sephadex C-50 column chromatography and Sephadex G-75 gel filtration. The specific activity of purified enzyme was 18 fold and the yeild was 13.40%. The molecular weight of the purified enzyme was estimated as approximately 40,000 dalton by the method of Andrews gel filtration. The optimum pH and temperature for this enzyme were found to be 4 and $40^{\circ}C$, respectively and the stable range of pH was 2 to 5. The enzyme was themostable at below $60^{\circ}C$ and inactivated at $70^{\circ}C$. It showed a tendency to increase the enzyme activity under the presence of 0.01 M $BaCl_2$, but under 0.01 M$Pb(NO_3)_2$, $AgSO_4$, and $K_3Fe(CN)_6$ and citric acid etc. inhibited it completely. The substrate specifity of enzyme showed a tendency to increase the enzyme activity under addition of dextrin and glycogen, but under saccharose inhibited it. COD removal rate of Aspergillus sp. SN-871 was approximately 67 to 68%.

최근 스마트폰의 급속한 보급에 따라 트위터, 페이스북과 같은 실시간 SNS(Social Network Service)가 폭발적으로 성장하고 있다. 본래 SNS는 지인과의 소통을 위한 온라인 커뮤니티로 출발했으나 지금은 새로운 커뮤니케이션으로 마케팅, 미디어, 커머스 등 다양한 영역의 플랫폼으로 진화하며, 그 파급력을 이어가고 있다. SNS, 소셜 미디어 시대를 맞이하여 소비자가 수동적 입장에서 능동적 입장으로 변경되고 있는 상황에서 블로그, 카페, 트위터 등 에서의 평가를 통한 고객 피드백 정보에 따라 서비스 제공자의 판매율이 많은 영향을 받고 있다. 따라서 효율적인 기업경영을 위해서는 SNS 등을 통한 고객의 목소리를 분석하는 작업과 그것을 기반으로 고객만족도 평가모형에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 SNS를 이용한 활용분야에 대해서 고찰해 보고 SNS가 점차 확대됨에 따라 발생할 수 있는 SNS 환경에서의 역기능은 어떤 것이 있는지 살펴보고 대응방안을 제안한다.

Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), an inducible heme-degrading enzyme, is expressed by macrophages and endothelial cells in response to various stresses and mediators of inflammation. HO-1 has been recently implicated in regulation of angiogenesis via expression of VEGF. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of HO-1 modulation on the collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) model and on angiogenesis via up- regulation of VEGF expression in human synovial fibroblast. DBA/1J mice were treated with an inhibitor of HO-1, tin protoporphyrin IX (SnPP), or with an inducer of HO-1, cobalt protoporphyrin IX (CoPP), from day 1 to day 35 after CIA induction. The clinical evolution of disease was monitored visually. At the end of the experiment, histopathologic changes were examined on the joints. VEGF expression in paws were measured by immunohistochemical stain. mRNA expression of HO-1 and VEGF stimulated with various concentration of $TNF-{\alpha}$, CoPP accessed on human synovial fibroblast by RT-PCR. Effects of pretreatment with SnPP on mRNA expression of HO-1 and VEGF in the presence of CoPP and $TNF-{\alpha}$ in synovial fibroblast was accessed by Real-time RT-PCR. Administration of cobalt protoporphyrin IX significantly induced the inflammatory response, with increased arthritis index and expression of VEGF in the paws of the arthritis models. Treatment with SnPP significantly reduced the severity of CIA through inhibition of joint inflammation and cartilage destruction. The expression of VEGF were also significantly reduced by SnPP treatment in the paw. CoPPIX as inducer of HO-1, increased HO-1 and VEGF expression dose dependently in synovial fibroblast. In contrast, inhibition of HO-1 activity by SnPPIX abrogated CoPPIX-induced HO-1 and VEGF production in synovial fibroblast. Stimulation with $TNF-{\alpha}$ increased HO-1 and VEGF expression itself and showed additive effect on HO-1 and VEGF expression when it treated with CoPP. When SnPP was treated with CoPP and $TNF-{\alpha}$, it abrogated the CoPP induced HO-1 and VEGF expression and also abrogated $TNF-{\alpha}$ induced HO-1 and VEGF expression in synovial fibroblast. The effects of HO-1 induction in rheumatoid arthritis results in aggravation of arthritis via up-regulation of VEGF. I concluded that inhibition of the expression or activity of HO-1 could be a therapeutic target of rheumatoid arthritis.
