This study investigated the efficacy of macelignan and hot water with Chinese traditional herb (CTH) extract on altering severe diabetic conditions in C57BL/KsJ-db/db mice. Previously, the anti-diabetic effects of macelignan were partly reported as a PPAR $\alpha/\gamma$-dual agonist. Here, we futher studied whether a combination of macelignan and CTH had more beneficial effects or not. The macelignan and CTH compound significantly decreased fasting blood glucose and HbA1c compared to macelignan-treated mice, and also significantly improved postprandial glucose, insulin sensitivity, and plasma lipid profiles (FFA, and TG). On the other hand, insulin levels were not significantly changed compared to the diabetic control group. There were no significant changes in the concentrations of total cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol, but there were changes in HTR and AI. These results suggest that the macelignan and CTH compound ameliorates hyperglycemia and efficiently improves postprandial glucose, insulin sensitivity, and hyperlipidemia compared with macelignan in db/db mice. Moreover, the macelignan and CTH compound seems to be more potent in affecting diabetic complications than macelignan.

본 연구는 일반적인 수문모형 및 수자원 관련 모형들의 초기세팅시 모형별로 사용되는 각기 다른 형태의 입력자료 대한 활용성을 용이하게 하고 실제 시스템에 적용하여 모형의 활용성을 높이고자 하는데 있다. 특히 현재 한국수자원공사 데이터베이스의 수문자료는 각종 수문모형 및 수자원 관련 시스템에 직접 사용하기에는 모형의 입력 포맷 형태가 너무나 다양하기 때문에 그 한계가 있다. 자료의 형태 대부분이 Raw data의 형식으로 이루어져 있어 모형 입력을 위한 선행 자료처리가 불가피하며, 이로 인해 실질적인 유출해석의 정확성을 높이는 연구 또는 수문학적 분석을 위한 연구등의 학술적인 측면에 초점이 맞추어지기보다 오히려 입력자료 구축에 많은 시간이 투입되는 것이 사실이다. 그 예로 실시간 물관리 운영 시스템(IRWMS)에서 유역유출 모형으로 사용 중인 SSARR모형의 강우 입력자료로는 유역평균강우량(MAP)이 사용된다. 한편 데이터베이스에는 지점 강우자료가 저장되어 있으며, 이를 사용하기 위해서는 다시 티센법(Thiessen Method), 유역평균법 등을 이용하여 지점강우에서 MAP로 환산 후 활용해야한다. 또한 이러한 선행 작업들은 모형 수행자마다 반복적으로 이루어지는 작업이므로 변환 프로그램에 의해 자동으로 계산하여 DB 등에 저장하고 사용한다면 수문자료 분석에 소모되는 시간과 비용을 절감할 수 있을 것이다. 현재 데이터베이스 내부에는 이러한 자료변환 알고리즘이 포함되어 있지 않으며 원시자료인 지점 강우자료가 데이터베이스에 저장되어 활용하고 있다. 따라서 수자원 전문가들에게 분석하고자 하는 유역별 모형별로 입력자료의 형태가 변환되어 자료를 실시간으로 제공하고, 또한 전산전문가가 아닌 수자원 전문가에 의해 관리 될 수 있는 데이터베이스 관리프로그램이 필요하다. 이러한 데이터베이스 관리프로그램의 역할가운데 주요사항으로 수문 자료를 활용한 수자원 관련 프로그램에 해당 실무 차원에서 작성, 검토, 사용을 위한 수자원 공사의 Raw Data 가공이 사용자의 요구에 따라 이루어져야 한다. 사용자의 요구에 따라 가공된 데이터는 다시 데이터베이스에 저장되어 다른 모형에서 해당 자료를 필요로 하게 될 경우 사용자들은 데이터를 손쉽게 받아 사용할 수 있다. 저장된 자료들은 검$\cdot$보정 기능을 포함하여 신뢰성을 확보하고 유출모형의 입력자료를 동일한 수준으로 유지하게 된다. 특히 IRWMS(Integrated Real-time Water Manage System)를 물관리 센터에서 실질적으로 운영하기 위해서는 신뢰성 있는 수문자료의 확보가 반드시 필요하다. 초기 입력자료의 신뢰성에 따라 시스템 전체에 미치는 영향이 상당히 크기 때문이다. 따라서 이러한 수문자료 연산 프로그램(JydroDB Solution)은 수문자료의 신뢰도를 분석할 수 있을뿐만 아니라 IRWMS 내부의 여러 모형과 연동이 가능하도록 개발하였고 수자원 전문가에 의해 테이터베이스관리가 손쉽게 이루어지도록 구성하였다.

Although there have been many researches to construct a database of water distribution networks using GIS, most of them were not linked with an model for the analysis of pipe networks because it is difficult to make spatial data about complex water distribution networks for building a detail model. Therefore, it is necessary to develop the method based on GIS to build geographical data for design of water distribution pipeline systems. In this study, an innovated design support technique using GIS is proposed for a hydraulic analysis model of water distribution networks. With the function of spatial analysis in GIS system, the results from a pipe network model are used to analyze the suitability of the location of pipeline network, the spatial suitability comprised the analysis of the degree of pipe age, the altitude distribution of water pressure, and the water supply system for the customer.

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are widespread in a variety of environments including fermented dairy products, gastroinstetinal and urogenital tracts of human and animals, plant, soil and water. Leuconostoc mesenteroides DB3 was detected by the strongest antibacterial activities among 24 Leuconostoc strains isolated from Camellia japonica flowers. Acid tolerance of L. mesenteroides DB3 existed up to pH 2.5, but the resistance did not show at pH 2.0, which relatively excellent acid resistance existed. Bile acid tolerance was very stable within the test range to 1.2%. L. mesenteroides DB3 exhibited the optimal growth at 30℃, and showed a slight slow growth when compared with L. mesenteroides KCTC3505, which reached a stationary phase at 18 hr. The pH was changed along with the growth curve, but was maintained above pH 3.98. L. mesenteroides DB3 had higher initial antibacterial activities when compared to L. mesenteroides KCTC3505, but it showed similar activities with the standard strain after the latter part of the logarithmic growth phase. Although lactic acid production in L. mesenteroides DB3 was induced by lower amount in the initial part to the standard strain, it was exhibited by similar amounts after the late logarithmic growth phase. Muicin adhesion of L. mesenteroides DB-3 maintained superior to L. mesenteroides KCTC3505. Both strains showed excellent emulsification ability for kerosene. In summary, we evaluate that L. mesenteroides DB-3 has a high potential for application as probiotics owing to its excellent antibacterial activity, acid resistance, bile acid resistance, and muicin adhesion.

This study proposes schemes of GIS-based system development for integrated information management in water environment linked with Korean Reach File (KRF). For this purpose, precedent studies and systems of the U.S. were investigated and analyzed to induce optimal methodology for Korean circumstances. Thereafter, data linkage methods of KRF and Water Environment Information System (WEIS), system configuration plans, application development plans, and KRF improvement and maintenance plans were considered. For data linkage and system configuration, three methods were suggested: an overlay operation-based data linkage method, entering spatial addresses into the existing DB, and creating link information between KRF and the existing DB. The first method was predicted to be the most effective for system implementation, the second method is advantageous for search tasks, and the third method is advantageous for system security and maintenance. Various types of applications should be developed in the consideration of the types of the users and their usages. Moreover, there is a need for further research on regular renewal of KRF, standard development, expansion of construction areas, etc. Based on the present results, research on actual system design and development also should be conducted for supporting Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs).

This study was performed to investigate the effects of silk protein enzyme hydrolysates on blood glucose and serum lipid in db/db diabetic mice. Twelve week-old-male C57BL/KsJ db/db mice were divided into two groups: diabetic control group and 0.25% silk protein hydrolysates solution group, which were fed for 8 weeks. Body weight increased in the silk protein hydrolysates group compared with the diabetic control group. There were no differences in food and water intake between the diabetic control and the silk protein hydrolysates groups. The weight of liver increased in the silk protein hydrolysates group while that of kidney increased in the diabetic control group. The blood glucose level increased about 18.0% in the diabetic control group after 8 weeks while that in the silk protein hydrolysates group increased about 5.8%. Also, silk protein hydrolysates improved the glucose tolerance in C57BL/KsJ db/db mice. There was no difference in total cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol concentration between the diabetic control and the silk protein hydrolysates group. Triglyceride concentration were lower in the silk protein hydrolysates group than in the diabetic control group (p<0.05) while HDL-cholesterol concentration were higher in the silk protein hydrolysates group than in the diabetic control group (p<0.05). This results suggest that administration of silk protein enzyme hydrolysates reduces significantly an increasing rate of 1]food glucose, decreases triglyceride, and increases HDL-cholesterol in C57BL/KsJ db/db mice.
