Opuntia humifusa, also called as Cheonnyuncho, is a cactus widely cultivated in southern regions of Korea. It has been known to have diverse biological activities, but most of the studies were performed with the MeOH extracts or solvent-partitioned fractions. Furthermore, the efforts to identify the responsible compounds for the biological activities are very limited. In this study, we tested the inhibitory effect of extracts and solvent-partitioned fractions of O. humifusa against LPS-induced nitric oxide (NO) production in Raw264.7 cells. The butanol fractions of O. humifusa efficiently inhibited the production of NO in Raw264.7 cells, but it was not due to the reduction of cell viability. Bioassay-guided isolation of butanol fractions of O. humifusa allowed the isolation of three flavonoids isorhamnetin 3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactosyl-4'-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucoside (1), isorhamnetin 3,4'-di-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucoside (2) and isorhamnetin 3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-(6-O-${\alpha}$-$\small{L}$-rhamnosyl)glucoside (3), and one lignan syringaresinol O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucopyranoside (4). Among them, isorhamnetin 3-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-galactosyl-4'-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucoside (1) and isorhamnetin 3,4'-di-O-${\beta}$-$\small{D}$-glucoside (2) exhibited the moderate inhibitory effects against LPS-induced NO production. This is the first time to report anti-inflammatory effects of these compounds.

Agricultural systems in South Asian countries are dominated by smallholder farmers. Additionally, these farmers have limited access to pre- and post-harvest technologies due to their high initial cost. The lack of these technologies in postharvest handling is responsible for 20% to 44% of fruit and vegetable losses. These high losses are largely the result of a generally weak basic postharvest infrastructure for the preservation of products, which avoids damage from improper handling, transportation, packaging, and storage. High postharvest losses of products negatively affect food availability, food security, and nutrition, as the producer is able to sell less of the farm yield and the net availability of these food commodities for consumption is reduced. An underlying cause of these postharvest losses is the limited awareness and knowledge bases of stakeholders (researchers, farmers, governments, non-governmental organizations, and merchants) in the traditional supply chains in which these losses occur. The analysis presented in this paper explores the state of postharvest practice in South Asian countries and discusses options for low-cost postharvest technologies in the region that can support small-scale farmers and provide a viable pathway for supply to the market, joining with modern value chains and bringing about individual and regional reduction in postharvest losses of fruits and vegetables. The improvement of basic and simple low-cost technologies through precise research efforts has the potential to prevent such huge losses of products, and help meet the ever-increasing demand for food in South Asian countries.

Diospyros peregrina Gurke. (Ebenaceae) is a small middle sized tree grows luxuriantly in the plains of costal West Bengal, India. The objective of the study was to explore the antidiabetic activity of methanol extract of matured fruits of Diospyros peregrina to substantiate the folklore claim of traditional practitioners. It was also aimed to establish correlation with reduction of oxidative state associated with diabetes. Methanol extract of matured fruits of Diospyros peregrina was administered orally at doses of 150 and 300 mg/kg body weight for 12 consecutive days to normal and streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. Fasting blood glucose level was estimated in both normal and diabetic rats while serum lipid profiles, liver glycogen level and pancreatic thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were evaluated for diabetic rats. Initial and final changes in body weight were also recorded. Oral glucose tolerance test was performed during the course of study. Experimental findings showed significant antidiabetic potential of extract in term of reduction of fasting blood glucose level of both normal and diabetic rats. It was found that extract at the dose of 300 mg/kg body weight is more effective and percentage reduction (55.64) of elevated blood glucose level is comparable to that of standard drug glibenclamide (60.60) at a dose of 10 mg/kg body weight. Observed data found statistically significant in reduction of serum lipid and pancreatic TBARS levels whilst improvement was observed in liver glycogen level and body weight profiles in extract treated diabetic rats.

Objectives: The two criteria to clarify the toxicity of a herbal diet are well known. Although mechanical analysis of effective ingredients, a western approach, is widely used, the toxicity presence classification through the herbal analysis from a viewpoint of a theory of the herbal medicine properties has been disregarded. This study is for the safe use of a herbal diet through classification and study of toxicity presence in the herbal diet from the view of a theory of herbal medicine properties, one of the methods of Oriental Medicine. Methods: We classified and studied the toxicity presence in four kinds of herbal diets, waters and grains, animals groups, fruits and vegetables, and herbs and trees, excluding mineral natural drugs, of 1,400 kinds of medicines in 16 chapters of Tang-aec-pyeon, Dong-ui-bo-gam, for which the herbal analysis from a viewpoint of the theory of the herbal medicine properties has been used. The criteria of the toxicity presence in the herbal diet have been largely classified into the toxicant and the non-toxicant, and the toxicant is in turn classified into the insignificant, the medium and the significant. The category to clarify herbal diet has been limited to simultaneous utilization of food and natural drugs. The main text is Dong-ui-bo-gam, although diverse other references have also been used. Results: There are toxicant diets: a kind of tortoise meat of animals groups; five kinds of grains part in fruits and vegetables: aengdo, peach, oyat, small apple and gingko nut; and 12 kinds of vegetables part in fruits and vegetables: ginger, oriental cabbage, lettuce, chongbaek, onion, garlic, leek, fern, houttuynia cordata (myeol), pyeongji, geundae, and spinach, which should be prohibited from long-term use both as food and medicine. Conclusion: If herbal diet is used as health food supplements or food, the toxicity presence should be considered on the grounds of an Oriental Medicine theory of the herbal medicine properties.

이 논문은 소매업체의 청과물 구입실태와 농산물 도매시장 구매의 문제점을 조사 분석하여 소매업체와 도매시장간 연계성 강화 방안을 모색하고 있다. 대형유통업체는 구매채널이 비교적 골고루 분산되어 효율적인 구매방식을 모색하고 있으나 중소 유통업체는 산지직거래 능력이 미약하여 주로 중도매인(방문구매)에 의존하고 있다. 업태별로 향후 도매시장 구입 의향을 보면, 대형유통업체와 외식/급식업체의 경우 도매시장 구입을 유지 내지 감축하려는 비율이 높고, 중소유통업체는 도매시장 구입을 확대 내지 유지하려는 경향을 보였다. 소매업체가 도매시장 구입 시 느끼는 문제점으로는 상품의 균질성 미흡과 속박이, 저온저장고 부족, 장소협소로 물류미비, 유통비용과다, 가격안정성 미흡 등이 있다. 농산물 도매시장이 시급히 개선해야 할 사항으로는 시장면적 확대로 물류효율화, 저온저장고 확충 등 시설 개선, 품질관리시스템 확립, 소분 포장 등 가공시설 확충 등인 것으로 조사되었다. 소매업체와 농산물 도매시장간 연계를 강화시키기 위해서는 도매시장 공간 확보를 통한 물류 원활화, 도매시장내 국가 검품제도 도입, 경락가격 안정화 방안 모색, 하역비 절감 방안, 소매업태별 차별화 마케팅 추진, 중도매인의 규모화 등이 필요하다. 거래제도 측면에서는 단기적으로 선취매매, 정가수의매매 등을 활성화시키고 중장기적으로는 도매상제도의 확대가 필요하다.

발달단계가 다른 참외 태좌부의 알콜발효에 미치는 무산소처리효과를 검정하였다. 참외의 발달단계별 a-cetaldehyde 및 ethanol 수준을 검정한 결과, 비대 후기 (stage 3)의 과실에서 가장 낮았다. 무산소 처리기간동안 태좌부 중의 ethanol은 꾸준히 증가 하였으며, acetaldehyde 함량의 증가는 상대적으로 미미하였다. 그러나 alcohol dehydrogenase 활성은 무산소 처리 1일 까지 급격히 증가한 다음 서서히 감소하였고, pyruvate decarboxylase 활성은 저온 처리기간 중 증가하였다. 완숙기과실의 경우 두 효소의 활성은 증가하지 않았으나, 발효산물의 축적은 관찰되어, 완숙기 과실의 알콜발효는 효소활성의 증가에 기인하는 것이 아님을 알 수 있었다.

The effects of inflorescence herbivory and flowering time on plant architecture and reproductive yields were examined with a perennial herbacious species, Vicia cracca, occurring in Natick, Massachusetts, USA. Natural herbivory on inflorescences was observed among the total of 157 plants during a growing season. Vegetative and reproductive characters were measured in the field as well as in the lab depending on the characters. Approximately 64% of the plants were subjected to herbivory on inflorescences. Plants were classified into three groups; unbrowsed plants, partially browsed, and totally browsed plants, according to the level of herbivory on inflorescences of each plant. Plants were also categorized by their flowering time such as early vs late flowering plants. Herbivores tended to favor inflorescences on rather small plants, resulting in a pattern of totally contact or partially intact inflorescences on taller plants. The mean number of stems, which was assumed to be a direct result of severe herbivory in this population, differed among herbivory groups. There also was a tendency that plants flowering late in the season had more nodes with more leaves, suggesting that herbivory on stem tips early in the season before flowering might have induced growth of side branches or branchlets along the main stems. Comparison between unbrowsed and partially browsed plants showed that the latter compensated for browsing in terms of numbers of inflorescences, fruits, seeds and seed size (weight), though they did not compensate in flower number. The probability of fruit production (presence vs absence of fruits) and seed weight declined toward the end of the season. These results suggest that resources are deficient at the end of the season. Almost complete reproductive failure in totally browsed plants is attributed to the destruction of inflorescence display and the disadvantage of small vegetative size of those plants. After all, in this population, a moderate level of herbivory on inflorescences did not reduce the maternal fitness of the plants. However, severe herbivory on inflorescences resulted in antagonistic interactions between plants and herbivores.
