  • The biochemical properties of strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from cattle with peracute gangrenous mastitis, acute systemic mastitis and chronic mastitis were examined. Of 261 strains of Staphylococci isolated from quarters with clinical mastitis, 140 (53.6%) were classified as Staphylococcus aureus and 121 (46.4%) were coagulase-negative staphylococci. All the strains of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from quarters with peracute gangrenous mastitis and acute systemic mastitis showed production of alpha heamolysin, coagulase, lipase, phosphatase, nuclease and gelatinase, and fermentation of mannitol. However, of 114 strains of Staphylococcus aureus obtained from quarters with chronic mastitis, 64 (56.1%) possessed alpha lysin, and 43 (37.7%) produced lipase in egg yolk medium. The most common hemolytic pattern of the strains associated with chronic mastitis was ${\beta}{\delta}$ type.

  • Sewage facilities are positively necessary for environment improvement such as rainwater removal, sewage disposal, preservation of the quality of water and health of the citizens in present-day. Meanwhile, a deterioration of the concrete sewer facilities is increasing rapidly due to the chemical and physical attack and especially biochemical attack that is to say biodeterioration. In this study, to prevent biochemical corrosion of the sewer concrete, surface of the concrete was spread with liquefied organic and inorganic complex antibiotics and then its engineering properties were experimentally investigated

  • The present study was conducted to investigate the biochemical characteristics and anti-biotic resistance of pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) isolated from piglets with diarrhea in Kyongbuk Western Area during the period from February to November 1992. 55 E. coli strains were isolated from 97 piglets with diarrhea and the biochemical and cultural reaction were compared with the classification criteria of Edwards and Ewing. The majority of E. coli were susceptible to amikacln, enrofloxacin and gentamicin. 51 (92.7%) out of 55 drug resistance stains carried R factor (R+) which were transferable to the recipients by conjugation.

  • Chlorpyrifos (CPF) is one of the most heavily used organophosphate pesticides and is useful as an insecticide drug. However, CPF also causes toxic effects in nontarget organisms, including humans and animals. Jageum-Jung (JGJ) is a traditional oriental medicine, composed of five specific herbs with antioxidant and hepatoprotective properties, used for detoxification. In the present study, highly concentrated CPF was orally administrated to male Institute of Cancer Research mice to produce acute toxicity, and the protective effects of JGJ administration were investigated through statistical analysis of changes in body and organ weights and serum biochemical parameters. JGJ caused body and organ weights to recover and reduced the levels of serum biochemical parameters indicative of liver damage, such as glutamic oxalate transaminase, glutamic pyruvate transaminase, alkaline phosphatase, lactic dehydrogenase, urea, glucose, total cholesterol, and triglyceride, that had been increased by CPF treatment. Our results demonstrated that JGJ ameliorates the effects of acute chlorpyrifos-induced toxicity. Therefore, JGJ has the potential to be used as a traditional medicine to alleviate insecticide toxicity.

  • Molecularly imprinted polymer (MIPs) membranes were prepared by UV polymerization to separate racemates with opposite physiological activity, and then its separation selectivity of racemates was carried out. Likewise, their properties were examined. Polycarbonate (PC) membrane was polymerized as small spot form in pore inner wall, but anodisc (AD) membrane was polymerized as film form with thickness 500~700 nm onto the membrane surface. Also the study on the separation selectivity of prepared MIPs membranes was carried out in L-Tryptophane (Trp) racemate solution. The results showed that AD MIPs membrane polymerized as a film form, which was achieved by solution polymerizaion consisting of over 90% cross-linking agent (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate; EGDMA) and under 30% dispersing agent (methanol; MeOH), had predominant 3.5 selectivity.

  • In this study, a carboxylate-based anionic surfactant SLEC-3 was prepared from coconut oil and the structure was elucidated by using FT-IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR analysis. Measurements of interfacial properties such as critical micelle concentration, static and dynamic surface tensions, emulsification index, and foam stability have shown that SLEC-3 is better in terms of interfacial activity and more effective in lowering interfacial free energy than those of SLES, which has been widely used as a conventional anionic surfactant in the detergent industry. Biodegradability, acute oral toxicity and dermal irritation tests also revealed that SLEC-3 surfactant possesses excellent mildness and low toxicity, indicating the potential applicability in detergents and cleaner products formulation.
