The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of combined treatments (slightly acidic electrolyzed water (SAEW), ultrasound (US), or mild heat (60℃)) on the growth of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in fresh-cut bell pepper, and the shelf-life and sensory quality (color and texture) were followed during storage at 4℃ and 25℃. An additional 0.65, 1.72, and 2.70 log CFU/g reduction was achieved by heat treatments at 60℃ for 1 min for DW, SAEW, and SAEW+US, respectively. Regardless of the type of pathogen, the combined treatment (SAEW+US+60℃) achieved a significantly (p < 0.05) longer lag time in all treatment groups. This combined treatment also prolonged the shelf-life of bell pepper up to 8 days and 30 h for the storage at 4℃ and 25℃, respectively. There was also no significant difference in the color and hardness of treated (SAEW+US+60℃) bell pepper from that of control during the storage. This new hurdle approach is thus expected to improve the microbial safety of bell peppers during storage and distribution.

This study was devised to observe the inhibitory effects of ethanol treatment precipitate (crude acidic polysaccharide) from Korean red ginseng on a lipolytic action of Toxohormone-L which has been known as lipolytic and anorexigenic factors. Toxohormone-L was obtained by partial purification of the ascites fluid from mice which had been inoculated with sarcoma-180. The yields of crude acidic polysaccharide from Korean red ginseng was 63.5%. In vitro, at the concentration of 500rg /ml, the inhibition rate of lipolysis by the crude acidic polysaccharide of Korean red ginseng was 38.8% and the total inhibitory activity per gram of ginseng material was 4,928 nit. In vivo, the red ginseng polysaccharide(40mg/ml in saline soon.) 16ul/g of body weight was injected to the sarcoma-180 bearing mice once In 3 days until death. The effects against the extension of life span was little but body weight gain of sarcoma-180 bearing mice decreased significantly by administration of Korean red ginseng polysaccharide compared to those of the control group.

It is well known that the adsorption character of activated carbon is dependent on the specific surface area and pore volume, but the relationship between the surface-chemical structure and the adsorption character has not been studied very often. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the acidic surface functional groups of activated carbon and the adsorption characteristics of low concentration phenol. So three types of activated carbons and four different treatments were introduced to this isotherm experiment. These treatments were nontreatment, 1N $HNO_3$ treatment, 6N $HNO_3$ treatment, $H_2O_2$ treatment. The conclusions of this study are as followings. If the initial concentration of phenol is high as 5mg/l, the adsorption is dependent on the specific surface area. If the initial concentration of phenol is low as $100{\mu}g/l$, the adsorption is dependent on the average pore volume. The acidic surface functional groups prevent the adsorption of phenol molecules to activated carbon. And the adsorbed amount decreases more for $HNO_3$ treatment than for $H_2O_2$ treatment and more for concentrated $HNO_3$ treatment than for dilute $HNO_3$ treatment.

Samryungbaikchul-san(SRBCS) has been used in oriental medicine for the treatments of gastrointestinal and neurological disorders. Here, potential protective function of SRBCS was investigated in neural tissues in Alzheimer's disease(AD) mouse model. In primary cultured cells from the spinal cord of newborn rats, treatment of ${\beta}$-amyloid peptide elevated cell counts positive to glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) or caspase 3 immunoreactivity, but the co-treatment of SRBCS reduced positive cell counts. In vivo administration of scopolamine, an inhibitor of muscarinic receptor, resulted in increases in the number of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) and caspase 3-positive cells in hippocampal subfields, which was then decreased by the treatment of SRBCS or acetylcholinesterase inhibitor galathamine. The present data suggest that SRBCS may play a protective role in damaged neural tissues caused by scopolamine treatments in mice.

This study was made to investigate the effect of silk fabrics treated with mimosa and tannic acid-weighting effect, surface color according to temprature, treatment time, concentration, pH. The results were as follows ; 1. The wavelength of maximum absorption of mimosa and tannic acid solution appeared at 278.5nm and 275.0nm, respectively. By the irradiation, spectra at wavelength of maximum absorption of mimosa solution disappeared, but those of tannic acid solution decreased after 48hr irradiation. 2. The tannin weighting increased with the increase of concentration, treatment temperature at 8$0^{\circ}C$, acidic condition. In case of tannic acid, it was higher than mimosa. 3. Surface color of silk fabric with mimosa changed from 2.8YR to 5.8YR acc-ording to the increase o( tannin concentration but in case of tannic acid itchanged from 4.2Y to 3.9Y. It was more changed acidic or alkaline conditionthan origine solution.

In this work, Rayon-based activated carbon fiber(KF-1500) was treated by HN $O_3$ and $H_2$S $O_4$ with different conditions. Specific surface areas(SSA, $S_{BET}$) of the treated activated carbon fibers were decreased by acidic treatment but, total surface acidities and surface functional groups were increased. In spite of the decrease of SSA, propylamin(PPA) adsorption and removal ability by activated carbon fiber(ACF) were increased by nitric acid treatment compared with the raw-ACF(KF-1500) and coconut based activated carbon. However, acidic treated activated carbon fibers were available to removal for various amines and contaminants by adsorption.n.

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to minimize quality degradation of concentrated blueberry puree by thermal treatment at $90^{\circ}C$ for 5 min, with citric acid (CA) and acidic sodium metaphosphate (ASM) as pH modifiers. Methods: The color values, redness a, anthocyanin contents, DPPH radical scavenging, elastase inhibition and tyrosinase inhibition activities were evaluated for quality parameters of concentrated blueberry puree. Results: The highest values of color value, redness a, anthocyanin contents, DPPH radical scavenging, elastase inhibition and tyrosinase inhibition activities were 1% CA+0.5% ASM followed by 1% CA and control. The quality parameters of concentrated blueberry puree were significantly different between control and 1% CA+0.5% ASM treatment (p<0.05). Conclusion: During thermal treatment, quality degradation of concentrated blueberry puree was reduced by 1% CA+0.5% ASM treatment, which is expected for new acidulants.

연속적 전기흡착 셀에서 활성탄소섬유 부직포 전극을 사용하여 U(VI) 함유 폐액을 처리하였다. 더 낮은 전위에서 U(VI)의 전기흡착 효율을 높이기 위하여 ACFs를 화학약품으로 표면처리하고 그의 세공구조 및 관능기의 변화를 조사하였으며 처리조건이 U(VI)의 흡착에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 표면처리한 모든 ACFs의 비표면적은 감소하였다. 중성염 및 염기성 용액으로 처리한 ACFs의 산성관능기는 감소했지만 산성 용액으로 처리한 ACFs의 산성관능기는 증가하였다. 산성관능기는 U(VI)의 흡착을 차단하여 산성용액 처리 ACFs 전극은 처리하지 않은 ACFs 전극에 비하여 U(VI)의 흡착용량이 감소했다. 중성염과 염기성 용액으로 처리한 ACFs 전극은 흡착용량이 크게 증가하여 -0.3 V의 낮은 전위에서도 처리하지 않은 ACFs 전극의 -0.9 V에 상응하는 결과를 얻었다. 이러한 결과는 ACFs 표면의 산성관능기 감소에 의한 이온의 차단효과(Shielding effect)가 줄어들 뿐만 아니라 음전위 가용에 의한 전기이중층 내에서의 $OH^-$의 증가로 U(VI) 흡착이 효율적으로 진행되었기 때문이다.

Chitooligosaccharides 혼합물을 처리한 벼 세포 현탁배양액과 처리하지 않은 배양액의 단백질 및 효소활성을 비교하여 이 elicitor에 의해 유도되는 chitinase를 확인하였다. Chitooligosaccharide 혼합물 처리로 chitinase 활성은 비처리구에 비하여 3.5배 증가하였으며 증가율이 단백질 증가보다 10배 이상 높아 본 효소가 선택적으로 유도되는 것으로 나타났다. Polyacrylamide gel 전기영동상 나타나는 총 11종의 chitinase중 4종이 유도효소로 판명되었으며 DEAE-cellulose chromatography 결과 3개는 $26{\sim}58\;KD$의 분자량을 가진 acidic chitinase 분획에, 나머지 1개는 basic chitinase 분획에 속한 것으로 나타나서 주로 acidic chitinase가 유도되는 것으로 확인되었다.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro effects of exposure to acidic beverages on microhardness of enamel and dentin. Thirty enamel specimens and thirty dentin specimens were obtained from extracted bovine maxillay incisiors. Enamel and dentin specimens were divided into three groups and treated with acidic beverages as follows; Group 1 : cola(pH 2.52), Group 2 : plain soda water(pH 2.93) and Group 3 : orange juice(pH 3.75). Erosive treatment was performed by storing each specimens for 5 min in 50ml solution of cola, soda water and orange juice. Average microhardness values(VHN) were determined before and after erosive treatment. All beverages produced significant loss of microhardness of enamel and dentin. Microhardness of enamel was reduced in the following order: Group 1 : $42.71{\pm}4.36(%)$, Group 2 : $37.09{\pm}6.25(%)$, Group 3 : $35.46{\pm}4.98(%)$. Microhardness of dentin was reduced in the following order: Group 1 : $17.14{\pm}3.42(%)$, Group 2 : $13.89{\pm}3.18(%)$, Group 3 : $13.82{\pm}3.50(%)$. The differences between group 1 and group 2, 3 were statistically significant(p< 0.05).
