The purpose of this study is to investigate the modulatory effect of emodin on hydrogen peroxide production in human blastoma SH-SY5Y cells induced by the synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA [polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid]. Hydrogen peroxide production was measured by dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR) assay. Emodin significantly inhibited the polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PIC)-induced production of hydrogen peroxide for 0.5, 2, 12, 18, and 24 hr incubation at the concentrations of 5, 10, 25, and 50 uM in SH-SY5Y (P < 0.05) in dose dependent manner. These results suggest that emodin has neuroprotective property related with its inhibition of hydrogen peroxide production in PIC-induced neuronal cells.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the modulatory effect of oroxylin A on hydrogen peroxide production in TM4 mouse testis sertoli cells induced by the synthetic analog of double-stranded RNA [polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid]. Hydrogen peroxide production was measured by dihydrorhodamine 123 (DHR) assay. Oroxylin A significantly inhibited the polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PIC)-induced production of hydrogen peroxide for 0.5, 2, 12, 18, and 24 hr incubation at the concentrations of 5, 10, 25, and $50{\mu}M$ in TM4 (P < 0.05) in dose dependent manner. These results suggest that oroxylin A has a protective effect against PIC-induced cellular toxicity with its inhibition of hydrogen peroxide production in PIC-induced sertoli cells.

홀스타인 건유우의 반추위에서 분리한 혼합 곰팡이에 첨가한 linoleic acid가 biohydrogenation 과정 중 생산되는 지방산의 농도와 종류를 측정하고, 최종 산물로 생산되는 지방산이 trans-11 vaccenic acid인지 stearic acid인지 조사하기 위하여 본 연구를 수행하였으며 결과는 다음과 같다. 반추위 혼합 박테리아 배양구에 linoleic acid 용액을 첨가한 결과, 배양 90분 이내에 100%의 linoleic acid가 stearic acid로 biohydrogenation되었다. 반면에 linoleic acid 용액을 반추위 혼합 곰팡이에 첨가한 결과 24시간 이내에 모든linoleic acid는 conjugated linoleic acid (cis-9, trans-11)와 trans-11 vaccenic acid로 biohydrogenation되었다. Linoleic acid가 함유된 혼합곰팡이 처리구는 배양시간이 증가할수록 stearic acid의 농도도 소량 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 또한 linoleic acid가 함유되지 않은 혼합곰팡이 대조구에서도 배양시간이 증가할수록 stearic acid 농도가 처리구와 비슷하게 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. 그러나 혼합 박테리아의 linoleic acid 첨가구에서는 배양시간이 증가할수록 stearic acid의 농도가 급격하게 증가하는 것을 조사되어 반추위 혼합곰팡이의 stearic acid생산은 linoleic acid의 biohydrogenation과 무관하게 생산되는 것으로 조사되었다. 따라서 반추위 혼합 곰팡이에 의한 linoleic acid biohydrogenation의 최종 산물은 trans-11 vaccenic acid로 판단되며, 혼합 박테리아는 stearic acid로 나타났다.

Background: Airag, alcoholic sour-tasting beverage, has been traditionally prepared by Mongolian nomads who naturally ferment fresh mares' milk. Biochemical and microbiological compositions of airag samples collected in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia and physiological characteristics of isolated lactic acid bacteria were investigated. Methods: Protein composition and biochemical composition were determined using sodium dodecyl sulfate-gel electrophoresis and high performance liquid chromatography, respectively. Lactic acid bacteria were identified based on nucleotide sequence of 16S rRNA gene. Carbohydrate fermentation, acid survival, bile resistance and acid production in skim milk culture were determined. Results: Equine whey proteins were present in airag samples more than caseins. The airag samples contained 0.10-3.36 % lactose, 1.44-2.33 % ethyl alcohol, 1.08-1.62 % lactic acid and 0.12-0.22 % acetic acid. Lactobacillus (L.) helveticus were major lactic acid bacteria consisting of 9 isolates among total 18 isolates of lactic acid bacteria. L. helveticus survived strongly in PBS, pH 3.0 but did not grow in MRS broth containing 0.1 % oxgall. A couple of L. helveticus isolates lowered pH of skim milk culture to less than 4.0 and produced acid up to more than 1.0 %. Conclusion: Highly variable biochemical compositions of the airag samples indicated inconsistent quality due to natural fermentation. Airag with low lactose content should be favorable for nutrition, considering that mares' milk with high lactose content has strong laxative effect. The isolates of L. helveticus which produced acid actively in skim milk culture might have a major role in production of airag.

Rapid and quantitative analysis of physiological change and clavulanic acid production was studied by the combination of pyrolysis mass spectrometry (PyMS) and artificial neural network (ANN) in Streptomyces clavuligerus. Firstly, the continuous culture studies were carried out to get the physiological background and PyMS samples. Clavulanic acid production was inversely related to growth rate: Mycelium growth and $q_{cal}$ were optimum at 0.1 $h^{-1}\; and \;0.025 h^{-1}$ respectively. Changes in specific nutrient uptake rates ($q_{gly}$ and $q_{amn}$) also affected clavulanic acid production since clavulanic acid production appeared to be stimulated by the limitation of carbon and nitrogen. Fermentation broth containing mycelium taken from continuous cultures was analyzed by PyMS, and the PyMS spectra were analyzed with multivariate statistics. PCCV plots revealed that samples harvested under the same culture condition were clustered together but samples from different culture conditions formed separate clusters. To deconvolute the pyrolysis mass spectra so as to obtain quantitative information on the concentration of clavulanic acid, ANN was trained on Py MS data using a radial basis function classifier. The results showed that the physiological stages with different growth rate were successfully differentiated and it was possible to monitor the clavulanic acid production precisely and rapidly.

Benzoic acid is occasionally used as a raw material supplement in food products and is sometimes generated during the fermentation process. In this study, the production of naturally occurring yogurt preservatives was investigated for various starter cultures and incubation temperatures, and considered food regulations. Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus plantarum, Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium lactis, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium infantis, and Bifidobacterium breve were used as yogurt starter cultures in commercial starters. Among these strains, L. rhamnosus and L. paracasei showed the highest production of benzoic acid. Therefore, the use of L. rhamnosus, L. paracasei, S. thermophilus, and different incubation temperatures were examined to optimize benzoic acid production. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on a central composite design was performed for various incubation temperatures (35-44℃) and starter culture inoculum ratios (0-0.04%) in a commercial range of dairy fermentation processes. The optimum conditions were 0.04% L. rhamnosus, 0.01% L. paracasei, 0.02% S. thermophilus, and 38.12℃, and the predicted and estimated concentrations of benzoic acid were 13.31 and 13.94 mg/kg, respectively. These conditions maximized naturally occurring benzoic acid production during the yogurt fermentation process, and the observed production levels satisfied regulatory guidelines for benzoic acid in dairy products.

곰팡이균을 이용한 구연산 생산에 있어 액체배양의 초기 pH는 구연산 생산에 유의한 영향을 미친다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 고체배양에서 Aspergillus niger를 이용한 구연산 생산에 여러 pH의 완충용액이 구연산 생산에 미치는 영향을 밝혀 최적의 완충용액을 찾고자 연구하였다. 실험에 적용된 여러가지 완충용액은 구연산 생산에 영향을 미치며 높은 초기 pH 조건에서 구연산 생산성이 우수한 것으로 나타났다. 여러가지 완충용액 중, phosphate (pH 8.6) 완충용액과 carbonate 완충용액(pH 10.0)이 고체발효에서 구연산 생산에 가장 적합함을 알 수 있었다. Carbonate 완충용액(pH 10.0)을 사용하여 고체배지의 초기 pH를 6.8으로 하였을 경우, 최대 구연산 생산인 564.3 g/kg solid substrate 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 염기 또는 산을 사용하여 고체 배지의 초기 pH를 4.42로 조정한 배지에 비해 phophate 완충용액을 사용한 pH 4.48의 고체배지에서 구연산 생산성이 1.5배 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 완충용액의 사용이 구연산 생산에 의한 배지의 산성화를 방지해 세포성장과 생산성을 높였다고 결론지을 수 있다.

T-flask와 air-lift 생물반응기를 이용하여 Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV)의 Tn5B1-4 세포에의 감염시 fatty acid 및 lipid, mannose, folic acid, $CaCl_2$등의 배지 첨가물이 재조합 ${\beta}-galactosidase\;({\beta}-gal)$ 생산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Cholesterol, tocopherol, tricaprylin 또는 mannose를 첨가하거나 folic acid를 보강첨가 했을 때 AcNPV의 재조합 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산은 향상되었으나 $CaCl_2$의 보강 첨가는 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산을 높이는데 효과적이지 못했다. Air-lift 생물반응기에서 0.34 mM cholesterol, 2.2 mM mannose 및 0.045 M folic acid를 보강 첨가한 배지를 이용하였을 때 재조합 ${\beta}-gal$ 생산은 basal medium에 비해 약 2배 정도의 증진 효과가 있었다.

The characteristics of $H_2$ production from livestock wastewater were investigated through an anaerobic acid forming process using Clostridium beijerinckii and the photosynthetic process using Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The submerged separation membrane was installed in the acid forming reactor, The photosynthetic process is composed of two reactors(photosynthetic reactor 1 and photosynthetic reactor 2) which is connected continually. The removal rate of COD and the production of volatile fatty acid(VFA) in the acid forming process were approximately 50% and 1000mg/L, respectively. The 70% of COD in the effluent of acid forming process was removed through the photosynthetic process. The production of $H_2$ in the photosynthetic reactor 1 and 2 was 50 and $25mLH_2/gVFA_{COD}$, respectively. The values of Y in acid forming reactor, photosynthetic reactor 1 and 2 was 0.2263, 0.0601 and 0.0393, respectively. The acetic acid and butyric acid produced in acid forming process were converted to $H_2$ by photosynthetic bacteria.
