본 연구는 4실린더 커먼레일 디젤기관에서 식물성 바이오 연료인 카롤라유(Canola oil)와 디젤연료를 혼합하여 사용하였을 때 바이오디젤 혼합율과 엔진 회전수 변화에 따른 연소 및 배기 배출물 특성을 조사하기 위하여 실험을 수행하였다. 실험 결과에 의하면 엔진 회전수 1,000, 1,500, 2,000(rpm)에서 연소 압력은 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가할수록 감소하고, 2500rpm에서는 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가할수록 증가 하였으며, 열 발생율은 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가 할수록 모두 증가하였다. 연료 소비율은 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가할수록 엔진 회전수가 상승할수록 증가하였다. CO 배출물은 엔진 회전수가 상승할수록, 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가할수록 감소하였다. $CO_2$, NOx, 배출물은 엔진 회전수가 상승할수록 바이오디젤 혼합율이 증가할수록 증가하였다.

We investigated the anesthetic effects of MS-222 (tricaine methanesulfonate), clove oil, 2-phenoxyethanol, $NaHCO_3$, lidocaine-HCl and lidocaine-$HCl/NaHCO_3$ in the glass catfish Kryptopterus vitreolus. Based on the efficacy criteria of complete anesthetic induction from 60 s to 120 s, recovery within 300 s, the lowest effective concentrations at $24^{\circ}C$ were determined to be 60 ppm (induction $82.8{\pm}17.6s$, recovery $80.2{\pm}34.7s$) for MS-222, 40 ppm (induction $70.5{\pm}8.2s$, recovery $83.4{\pm}17.7s$) for clove oil, 250 ppm (induction $64.3{\pm}24.0s$, recovery $62.8{\pm}15.6s$) for 2-phenoxyethanol, 300 ppm (induction $127.3{\pm}13.3s$, recovery $107.5{\pm}4.8s$) for lidocaine-HCl and 200/100 ppm (induction $81.2{\pm}17.2s$, recovery $98.3{\pm}19.7s$) for lidocaine-$HCl/NaHCO_3$. Thus, 200/100 ppm of lidocaine-$HCl/NaHCO_3$ was found to be an effective anesthetic agent.

In order to extend the shelf life of sliced raw flatfish, the antimicrobial effects of natural essential oil from mustard and a mixture of ginger and mustard essential oils were tested at various temperatures. In addition, volatile components of the mixed essential oils were analyzed using gas chromatography and gas chromatography mass spectrometry. The viable cell counts of Vibrio parahaemolyticus treated with mixed essential oils from ginger and mustard was 0.7-1.3 log CFU/g lower than those of other treatments during storage at $5^{\circ}C$. During storage at $20^{\circ}C$, the viable cell counts of V. parahaemolyticus, V. vulnificus 01, and V. vulnificus 02 treated with the essential oils increased slightly from 6.53-6.64 log CFU/g at initial stages to 6.77-7.72 log CFU/g after 24-hr of storage, however they were 1.38-1.97 log CFU/g lower than those of the control group (8.74-9.10 log CFU/g). These results show that the growth of V. parahaemolyticus and V. vulnificus inoculated on sliced raw flatfish could be inhibited by treatment with natural essential oils from ginger and mustard at $5^{\circ}C$ of storage. However, the antibacterial effects of the essential oils on Vibrio species observed in this study were not sufficient to merit their use in sliced raw flatfish at temperatures exceeding $20^{\circ}C$.

In the present study, we investigated the inhibitory effect of heat-killed Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and live E. faecalis on benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The BPH rat model was established by administering male rats with testosterone propionate (TP, 5 mg/kg, in corn oil) via subcutaneous injections daily for four weeks after castration. The rats were divided into five groups: Con, corn oil-injected (s.c.) + DW administration; BPH, TP (5 mg/kg, s.c.) + DW administration; BPH+K_EF, TP (5 mg/kg, s.c.) + heat-killed E. faecalis (7.5 × 10¹² CFU/g, 2.21 mg/kg) administration; BPH+L_EF, TP (5 mg/kg, s.c.) + live E. faecalis (1 × 10¹¹ CFU/g, 166 mg/kg) administration; BPH+Fi, TP (5 mg/kg, s.c.) + finasteride (1 mg/kg) administration. In both of BPH+K_EF and BPH+L_EF groups, the prostate weight decreased and histological changes due to TP treatment recovered to the level of the Con group. Both of these groups also showed regulation of androgen-signaling factors, growth factors, and apoptosis-related factors in prostate tissue. E. faecalis exhibited an inhibitory effect on benign prostatic hyperplasia, and even heat-killed E. faecalis showed similar efficacy on the live cells in the BPH rat model. As the first investigation into the effect of heat-killed and live E. faecalis on BPH, our study suggests that heat-killed E. faecalis might be a food additive candidate for use in various foods, regardless of heat processing.

The global trade partners have been diversified and mixed in agricultural market, which is expended the international agri-food market through the Regional Trade Agreement and World Trade Organization, etc. The aim of this study is to derive influential factors for exports increases of agricultural products targeting to Association of South-East Asian Nations (ASEAN). We set the equation for agricultural products exports referred to panel gravity model considering panel fixed effect for controlling endogeneity within variables. The results of this study are the follows; (1) Social economic distance considering international oil price negatively affects in the mushroom model; (2) Korean GDP affects (-) in a mushroom model and (+) in a vegetable model, however, ASEAN's per capita GDP indicates opposite influence in the same model; (3) Relative exchange rate shows negative impact in a vegetable model; (4) The entry status into WTO and the status in force of FTA have converse effects in mushroom and vegetable model, respectively.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Several medicinal properties of Smilax china L. have been studied including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer effects. However, the antiobesity activity and mechanism by which the water-soluble fraction of this plant mediates its effects are not clear. In the present study, we investigated the lipolytic actions of the water-soluble fraction of Smilax china L. leaf ethanol extract (wsSCLE) in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. MATERIALS/METHODS: The wsSCLE was identified by measuring the total polyphenol and flavonoid content. The wsSCLE was evaluated for its effects on cell viability, lipid accumulation, glycerol, and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) contents. In addition, western blot analysis was used to evaluate the effects on protein kinase A (PKA), PKA substrates (PKAs), and hormone-sensitive lipase (HSL). For the lipid accumulation assay, 3T3-L1 adipocytes were treated with different doses of wsSCLE for 9 days starting 2 days post-confluence. In other cell experiments, mature 3T3-L1 adipocytes were treated for 24 h with wsSCLE. RESULTS: Results showed that treatment with wsSCLE at 0.05, 0.1, and 0.25 mg/mL had no effect on cell morphology and viability. Without evidence of toxicity, wsSCLE treatment decreased lipid accumulation compared with the untreated adipocyte controls as shown by the lower absorbance of Oil Red O stain. The wsSCLE significantly induced glycerol release and cAMP production in mature 3T3-L1 cells. Furthermore, protein levels of phosphorylated PKA, PKAs, and HSL significantly increased following wsSCLE treatment. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that the potential antiobesity activity of wsSCLE is at least in part due to the stimulation of cAMP-PKA-HSL signaling. In addition, the wsSCLE-stimulated lipolysis induced by the signaling is mediated via activation of the ${\beta}$-adrenergic receptor.

지난 세기 동안 무분별한 화석자원의 남용과 중국 등 개발도상국에서의 수요급증은 불안정한 유가문제를 야기하였고, 막대한 양의 비가역적 이산화탄소 배출은 지구온난화 문제를 발생시켰다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위하여 석유자원을 대체할 수 있는 재생 및 지속사용 가능 자원에 대한 관심이 커지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 재생 및 지속사용 가능 자원으로서 식물성 바이오매스 공급원을 활용하여 석유화학제품 대체하고자 하는 연구개발 동향을 접착소재의 관점에서 고찰하였다.

The present study aimed to determine the effect of co-pyrolysis of sawdust biomass and scrap tyre waste employing different blending ratios of sawdust to waste tyre such as 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100. The thermochemical characterization of feedstocks was carried out by employing the proximate, ultimate analysis, and thermogravimetric (TGA) analyses, calorific values, and scanning electron microscope coupled with energy dispersive x-ray analysis (SEM-EDX) to select the blending ratio having better bioenergy potential amongst the studied ratios. The blending ratio of 25:75 (sawdust to waste tyre) was selected for the co-pyrolysis study in a fixed-bed pyrolysis reactor system based on its solid biofuels properties such as heating value (30.18 MJ/kg), and carbon (71.81 wt%) and volatile matter (63.82 wt%) contents. The pyrolysis temperatures were varied as 500, 600 and 700 ℃ while the other parameters such as heating rate and nitrogen flowrate were maintained at 30 ℃/min and 0.5 L/min respectively. The bio-oil yields as 31.9, 47.1 and 61.2 wt%, bio-char yields as 34.5, 34.2 and 31.4 wt% and gaseous product yields as 33.6, 18.60 and 7.3 wt% at the pyrolysis temperatures of 500, 600 and 700 ℃ respectively were obtained. The blends of sawdust and waste tyres showed the improved energy characteristics which could provide the solution for the beneficial management of sawdust and scrape tyre wastes via co-pyrolysis processing.
