Hydrogen sulfide ($H_2S$) is a by-product of metabolism of amino acids including sulfur and alcoholic fermentation, it is generally thought of in terms of a poisonous gas. Though $H_2S$ can have a negative impact on the perceived quality of fermented drinks due to an undesirable aroma, it plays prominent roles as a neuromodulator in the mammalian brain as well as a smooth muscle relaxant. Nowadays studies on the proteins which produce $H_2S$ are carried out in various fields such as structure, function, and metabolism. Here we propose to develop a simple and rapid $H_2S$ forming assay method, which will lead to speed up preparing the $H_2S$ forming proteins for identification by MALDI-TOF MS analysis. We detected three kinds of proteins which produce $H_2S$ in the crude extract of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Those proteins were cystathionie $\beta$-synthase, O-acetylserine sulfhydrylase, and cystathionine $\gamma$-lyase.

The effect of pH on surface hydrophobicity, sulfhydryl group, infrared spectrum, SDS-PAGE (sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) pattern and enthalpy was investigated in recovered protein from mackerel and frozen blackspotted croaker by alkaline processing. Hydrophobic residue in myofibrillar protein exposed to the surface of protein, and hydrophobic interaction were the highest around 6$0^{\circ}C$. The surface hydrophobicity was different between myofibrillar protein and myofibrillar protein including sarcoplasmic protein (recovered protein). The peak at 1636 c $m^{-l}$ was increased with pH, and the recovered protein was unfolded in alkali pH. Difference of surface and total sulfhydryl group at pH 7.0 and 10 was comparative high, and decrease of surface sulfhydryl group indicated formation of S-S bonds. Mackerel and frozen blackspotted croaker in alkaline pH showed bands of polymerized myosin heavy chain on SDS-PAGE pattern. The transition temperatures of recovered protein were 33.1, 44.3 and 65.5$^{\circ}C$. Gelation of recovered protein from alkali processing was estimated by increase of $\beta$-sheet structure by pH treatment, S-S bonds by oxidation of surface sulfhydryl group in heating, polymerization of myosin heavy chain in order.r.
Background: The foot is a complex body structure that plays an important role in static and dynamic situations. Previous studies have reported that altered foot posture might affect knee joint strength and postural stability, however their relationship still remains unclear. Objects: The purpose of this study was to identify whether pronated foot posture has an influence on knee isokinetic strength and static and dynamic postural stability. Methods: Forty healthy young males aged 18 to 26 years were included. Foot posture was evaluated using the Foot Posture Index-6 (FPI-6), and the subjects were divided into two groups according to their FPI-6 scores: a neutral foot group (n = 20, FPI-6 score 0 to +5) and a pronated foot group (n = 20, FPI-6 score +6 or more). Biodex Systems 3 isokinetic dynamometer was used to evaluate knee isokinetic strength and hamstring to quadriceps ratio at three angular velocities: 60°/sec, 90°/sec, and 180°/sec. The static and dynamic postural stability in a single-leg stance under the eyes-open and eyes-closed conditions were measured with a Biodex Balance System. Results: There were no significant differences between the groups in knee isokinetic strength and static postural stability (p > 0.05), but there was a significant difference in the medial-lateral stability index (MLSI) for dynamic postural stability under the eyes-closed condition (p = 0.022). The FPI-6 scores correlated significantly only with the dynamic overall stability index (OSI) and the MLSI (OSI: R = 0.344, p = 0.030; MLSI: R = 0.409, p = 0.009) under the eyesclosed condition. Conclusion: Participants with pronated foot had poorer medial-lateral dynamic stability under an eyes-closed condition than those without, and FPI-6 scores were moderately positively correlated with dynamic OSI and dynamic MLSI under the eyes-closed condition. These results suggest that pronated foot posture could induce a change in postural stability, but not in knee isokinetic strength.
Using light microscopy, the digestive tract of the parrot fish, Oplegnathus fasciatus was studied histologically. The tract consists of esophagus, stomach, intestine and fifty or sixty pyloric caecae. Each pyloric caecum is a blind sac of banana shape, and is originated from pyloric end of the stomach. The relative length of gut (RLG), that is length of digestive tract to standard length, is 1.78 (n=30). Esophagus has an undeveloped submucosa and a well developed muscularis mucosae. Its mucosa displays primary and secondary folds lined with a cuboidal or columnar epithelium and numerous acidic mucous secretory cells. The stomach has muscularis, which consists of longitudinal and circular muscular layers; its submucosa and muscularis mucosae are well developed. Only primary folds are present in the stomach. Microvilli are present in the epithelial layer. The stomach has a well-developed gastric gland and relatively more secretory granules. Mucosal epithelium of the pyloric caeca is composed of neutral mucous secretory cells and columnar epithelium with developed microvilli in the apical portion. Using the morphological and histological features, the intestine may be divided into anterior, mid and posterior parts. It has an advanced striated border and abundant acidic mucous secretory cells and some neutral mucous secretory cells. The mid intestine has more abundant acidic mucous secretory cells than the anterior and posterior parts. A thick longitudinal muscle is formed in the intestine and its thickness is progressively increased towards the posterior end.
In this study, we investigated the changes in the physiological and histological traits of a sea squirt (Halocynthia roretzi) with the emergence of the soft tunic syndrome induced by the water temperature control (6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 and $27^{\circ}C$). It was observed that the induction rate of the soft tunic syndrome was highest at $15^{\circ}C$, but lowest at $24^{\circ}C$. Based on the tunic color condition and contraction strength, the whole process were classified into 4 stages as S0, S1, S2 and S3. Interestingly, there were significant differences in oxygen consumption and filtration rate were observed during S0-S3. The most distinctive aspects were change of blood cell composition at stage S3, whereas multi-vacuole cell ratio was decreased by 1/2 and morula cell ratio expanded about 10 times during S0-S3. Further, change of organ structure started following the syndrome such as degeneration of epithelial cells, microfilaments, increment in hemocytes and damage in muscle fiber have been detected in tunic, siphon, branchial sac, body wall musculature and pyloric gland. Briefly, our study results indicated that the normal physiological functions of the sea squirt can be affected due to the soft tunic syndrome induced by water temperature.
Objectives: This article reported three patients developed anterior open bite seemed to be related to TMJ anterior disc dislocation without reduction(ADD WO R), but no evidence of condylar destructive or collapse and analyzed the craniofacial skeletal structure by means of cephalometric analysis. Results: All patients suddenly developed a centric relation/centric occlusion discrepancy, an increased overjet and an anterior open bite following ADD WO R. All patients had Angle's Class I occlusion and shallow bite, but they had skeletally Class III and Class II pattern and all were vertically significant hyperdivergent type. Conclusions: These 3 patients had characteristics of common facial morphology including:(1)Angle classification Class I and shallow bite,(2)high mandibular plane angle,(3)high gonial angle. Developed anterior open bite resulted from clockwise rotation of the mandible related TMJ ADD WO R, rather than a result from the eruption of posterior teeth. We hypothesize rotation may relate to attached direction of masticatory muscle.

As the number of patients suffering from Pes Planus increases, research on a correctional insole that can cope with them is increasingly required. Therefore, the design of an insole for Pes Planus Correction was studied using the superelastic effect, which is one of the characteristics of the shape memory alloy in this paper. To design an effective insole, the effect of the contact pressure induced by the insole on the plantar fascia, which is the most important muscle in the foot structure, was evaluated. Three parameters (thickness, max. height and asymmetric ratio) were set as the main design factors of the insole, and the maximum contact pressure appearing on the plantar fascia was calculated by finite element analysis and analyzed using the Taguchi method. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the contact pressure was influenced in the order of max. height, thickness, and asymmetric ratio. In addition, the contact pressure was converted to a feeling pressure that could be felt by a person, and then a safety correction range was established that would not cause any irritation to the plantar fascias, even though the correction effect could be expected. This indicates the best design for the safety correction range. The design method considering the important factors established through this study can form the basis for designing a personalized correctional insole in the future.

Sardine and mackerel so called dark muscled fish have been underutilized due to the disadvantages in bloody meat color, high content of fat, and postmortem instability of protein. Recent efforts were made to overcome these defects and develope new types of product such as texturized protein concentrates and dark muscle eliminated minced fish. Approach of this study is based on the rapid dehydration of foamed fish-starch paste by dielectric heating. In process comminuted sardine meat was washed more than three times by soaking and decanting in chilled water and finally centrifuged. The meat was ground in a stone mortar added Ivith adequate amounts of salt, foaming agent, and other ingredients for aid to elasticity and foam stability. The ground meat paste was extruded in finger shape and heated in a microwave oven to give foamed, expanded, and porous solid structure by dehydration. Dielectric onstant $(\varepsilon')$ and dielect.ic loss $(\varepsilon")$ values of sardine meat paste were influenced by wavelength and moisture level. Those values at 100 KHz and 15 MHz were ranged 2.25-9.86; 2.22-4,18 for E' and 0.24-19.24; 0.16-1.20 for E", respectively, at the moisture levels of $4.2-13.8\%$. For a formula for fish-starch paste preparation, addition of $20-30\%$ starch (potato starch) to the weight of fish meat, $2-4\%$ salt, and $5-10\%$ soybean protein was adequate to yield 4-5 folds of expansion in volume when heated. Addition of e99 yolk was of benefit to micronize foam size and better crispness. In order to provide better foaming and dehydration, addition of $0.2-0.5\%$sodium bicarbonate, foaming agent, was proper to result in foam size of 0.5-0.7 mm and foam density of $200-400\;/cm^2$ which gave a good crispness. Heating time was depended upon the moisture level of fish-starch paste. For a finger shaped paste (1.0cm. $D\times10cm.L$) heating for 150-200 sec. in a microwave oven (700W. 2.45GHz) was sufficient to generate foams, expand, and solidify the porous structure of fish-starch paste. When the moisture content was above $55\%$ browning and scorching was deepened due to over-expansion and over-heating whereas the crispness was hardened by insufficient expansion at lower moisture content. In quality evaluation of the product, chemical composition of $30\%$ starch and $3\%$ salt added product was moisture $8.8\%$, lipid $2.4\%$, carbohydrate $46.7\%$, protein $36.1\%$, and ash $6.0\%$. Eleven membered panel test evaluated that fish-starch paste was acceptable in color, crisp-ness, taste, except a trace of fishy odour which could be masked by the addition of spice extracts.
The structure of gonads, gametogenesis and reproductive cycle of the cockle, Fulvia mutice, were studied mainly by histological observation. The materials were monthly sampled in the southern area of Yeosu from October 1980 to September 1981. F. mutica was monoecious. The gonads were situated between the liver tissues and the outer fibronuscular layers compacted by the connective tissue fibers and muscle fibers beneath the outermost layer of simple cuboidal epithelium. The gonad was composed of a number of the ovarian sacs and the testicular tubules which form the tubular structure. Testicular tubules in the mature stage sometimes contained 'testis-ova' The undifferentiated mesenchymal tissues and the eosinophilic cells were abundantly distributed on the germinal epithelium in the early development stage. With the further development of the ovary and testis, these tissues and cells gradually disapprared. The undifferentiated mesenchymal tissues and the eosinophilic cells are related to the growing of the oocytes and spermatocytes . Early multiplicating oogonium was about $10{\mu}m$ in diameter. As the oocytes grow to $27-34\times50-58{\mu}m$ by increasing cytoplasm, the oocytes connected to the basement membrane by their egg-stalks. The ripe eggs were about $60{\mu}m$ in diameter and they were surrounded by gelatinous membrane. Most male germ cells in mature stage were transformed into the spermatozoa and they formed the sperm bundles. After spawning, undischarged ripe eggs and spermatozoa remained in the ovarian sac and the testicular tubule respectively for some time, then they finally degenerated. Especially the early spent ovarian sacs in May did not contract significantly and then they took part in the secondary maturation within two or three months during the summer season. The monthly changes of the fatness well agreed with the reproductive cycle. The reproductive cycle of F. mutica could be classified into six successive stages : multiplicative, growing, mature, spent, degenerative and recovery stage. It seems that the spawning season is closely rotated to the water temperature, and the spawning occurs from May to October at about $20^{\circ}C$ in water temperature. The peak spawning seasons appeared twice a year between June and July and in September.
