This study was conducted to examine the physicochemical properties and micro-encapsulation process of rice fermented with Bacillus subtilis CBD2. The viable bacterial cell, pH, and amylase activity of the rice liquid culture were 7.61 log CFU/mL, pH 5.08 and 159.43 units/mL, respectively. The micro-encapsulated rice liquid culture was manufactured via spray drying with different forming agents: i.e., alginic acid 1.0% and chitosan 0.3%, 0.5%, and 1.0%. The moisture contents of the spray-dried powders were approximately 2.90~3.68%. The color of the L and a value decreased whereas that of the b and ${\Delta}E$ value increased. The particle size and outer topology of the spray-dried rice liquid culture were $48.13{\sim}68.48{\mu}m$ and globular, respectively. The water absorption index of the spray-dried powder (2.40~2.65) was lower than that of the freeze-dried powder (2.66). The water solubility index of the spray-dried powder (9.17~10.89%) was higher than that of the freeze-dried powder (7.12%). The in vitro dissolution was measured for five hours in pH 1.2 simulated gastric fluid, and pH 6.8 and pH 7.4 simulated intestinal fluids, using a dissolution tester at $37^{\circ}C$ with 50 rpm agitation. The amylase survival in the fermented rice was 85.93% through the spray-drying and it was very effectively controlled.

This study was carried out in an attempt to select chemicals such as zeolite granules, chitosan, wood-vinegar, $Ca(OCl)_2$, NaOCl, against bacterial brown blotch caused by Pseudomonas tolaasii on Flammulina velutipes in laboratory and mushroom unit. Results obtained using these chemicals were summarized. Inhibitory effect on $Ca(OCl)_2$ and wood-vinegar with 0.5% concentration was shown to caual pathogen, P. tolaasii, by slight damage on the mycelial growth of F. velutipes. Those materials were recognized as promising one for control of bacterial brown bloth on F. velutipes. Disease incidence in control was the highest value as 43.8%; whereas chemical treatment was estimated as 14.6% with 0.5% of $Ca(OCl)_2$. Disease incidence was inhibited about 20% in chemical treatment with 0.5% of wood-vinegar, 1.0% of $Ca(OCl)_2$, and 26.1% with 1.0% of wood-vinegar. For the inhibition effects of chemical concentrations, it was effective at the low concentration which was 0.5% rather than that of 1.0%. Quality of mushrooms was significantly improved, and yields was also increased by 30% in the chemical treatment. In case of $Ca(OCl)_2$ treatment at 1.0% concentration, the yields was increased by 35.6% showed the highest value among tested chemicals. However, the overall effects including disease incidence, quality and yields suggests that $Ca(OCl)_2$ is relatively more effective than wood-vinegar, and the optimal concentration controlling the disease was $0.5{\sim}1.0%$ with $Ca(OCl)_2$ and 0.5% with wood-vinegar.

1. 목적 생체재료의 생체친화성을 증진시키고 치유를 촉진하기 위한 목적으로 생체재료의 생화학적 표면개질에 관한 연구가 널리 진행되고 있다. 이와 같은 목적으로 이용되어 온 부착분자에는 아미노산, 펩타이드, 단백질, 효소 및 성장인자들을 들 수 있으며, 이들 분자들을 금속, 골대체물질 및 폴리머와 같은 생체재료의 표면개질에 이용하여 왔다. 이 연구의 목적은 생체적합성이 우수하고 생분해성을 지닌 키토산으로 얇은 막을 제작한 후, 세포외 기질의 구성성분 중 세포부착에 관여하는 RGD 펩타이드를 부착시킨, 표면개질 키토산막의 생물학적 영향을 MG-63 조골양세포를 이용하여 관찰하는 것이다. 2. 방법 2% acetic acid에 키토산 가루를 녹여 만든 2% 키토산 용액으로 24-well 배양접시의 표면을 도포 후 24시간 동안 건조시켜 키토산막을 제작하였다. GRGDS 펩타이드를 cross-linker(EDC, NHS) (Sigma, MO, USA) 용액과 반응시켜서 펩타이드의 카르복실기를 활성화시켰다. 이들을 PBS 완충용액으로 수화시킨 키토산막과 결합시켜 펩타이드의 활성화된 카르복실기와 키토산의 아민기 간에 안정적인 아미드 결합(amide bond)이 형성되도록 하였다. 하루 동안 반응을 일으킨 후 PBS 완충용액과 증류수로 씻어내고 냉동 건조시킴으로써 GRGDS가 결합된 키토산막을 제작하였다. 재료 표면의 화학 성분을 알아보는데 사용되는 방법의 일종인 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) 분석을 통하여 부착분자가 키토산막에 결합된 여부를 확인하였다. GRGDS 펩타이드에 요오드를 결합시킨 후, 이것을 키토산막에 공유 결합시키고 XPS를 통해 요오드가 재료 표면에서 검출되는지를 검사하였다. 요오드가 검출된다면 이것은 키토산막 표면에 실제로 GRGDS 펩타이드가 존재하는 것을 의미하게 된다. 표면개질된 키토산막에 사람조골양세포인 MG-63을 접종하여 이를 실험군으로 하였고, 표면이 개질 되지 않은 키토산막을 대조군으로 하였다. 세포부착의 최적화 농도를 확인하기 위하여 GRGDS를 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0mg/ml의 농도로 준비하였다. 배양 후 1일, 7일째에 각 well에서 trypsin EDTA를 이용하여 세포를 분리한 후, 이를 원심 분리하여 세포수측정기를 이용하여 부착 세포의 수를 측정하여 세포의 부착 정도를 비교하였다. 배양 2시간, 24시간 후 주사전자현미경을 이용하여 키토산막에 부착된 세포의 양상을 관찰하였다. 3. 결과 XPS를 통한 표면의 화학 성분 분석 결과 GRGDS 펩타이드를 결합시킨 키토산막에서 요오드가 검출되었으며 펩타이드를 부착하지 않은 대조군에서는 검출되지 않았다. 따라서 cross-linker를 이용한 펩타이드와 키토산막의 공유결합을 확인할 수 있었다. 세포 배양 후 1일째 부착된 세포 수를 측정한 결과 0.1mg/ml 이상의 GRGDS 펩타이드 농도로 공유 결합시킨 키토산막에서 부착 세포 수가 다른 농도에 비해 유의성 있게 많이 관찰되었다. 이 농도 이하에서는 대조군과 실험군간에 세포부착의 유의한 차이가 없었다. 따라서 주사전자현미경을 이용한 부착 세포의 양상에 관한 관찰은 0.1mg/ml 농도의 펩타이드를 이용하였다. 세포 배양 7일째, 부착된 세포 수 측정 결과 GRGDS의 농도에 따른 유의성 있는 차이가 없었으며, 실험군과 대조군간에도 유의성 있는 차이가 없었다. 주사전자현미경 관찰결과 2시간 및 24시간 배양된 실험군 모두에서 별모양의 세포들이 키토산막 표면에 편평하게 잘 부착되어 있으며 많은 위족이 발달된 소견을 보인 반면, 대조군에서는 원형 또는 다각형 모양의 세포들이 실험군에 비해 부착이 덜 되어있는 양상을 보였다. 이 연구를 통하여 기능성 펩타이드를 생체재료의 표면에 공유결합 시키는 방법을 확립할 수 있었으며, RGD 펩타이드의 공유결합으로 표면개질된 키토산막이 조골세포의 부착능을 증진시킬 수 있음을 확인하였다. 표면개질된 생체재료를 소, 중동물에 적용시켜 생체 내에서의 생물학적 영향을 평가할 필요가 있으며, 이 실험의 결과는 향후 다양한 기능성 부착분자를 선발, 고안하여 임플란트용 생체재료의 표면개질에 이용하는 이른바 모방생체재료분야에 널리 활용될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of various quality preservative treatments for extending shelf life and maintaining good quality of minimally processed fruit and vegetables produced in Korea. To determine the suitable treatments for delaying quality deterioration, fresh Asian pears and Chinese cabbages were sliced and treated with various quality preservatives (1% CaCl$_2$, 1% NaCl, 3% sucrose, 1% Ca-lactate, 1% vitamin C, 0.05% chitosan ＋1% vitamin C, 0.1% Sporix＋1% vitamin C, hot water (60$\^{C}$), 0.2% L-cysteine), packed with polyethylene film (60㎛-thick), and stored at 4$\^{C}$/0$\^{C}$ or 20$\^{C}$. Various biological and sensory tests were performed to evaluate the quality changes in minimally processed products. Results indicated that Chinese cabbages treated with 1% CaCl$_2$ at 4, and 1% CaCl$_2$ and 1% NaCl at 20$\^{C}$ were most effective in maintaining the quality and minimizing the biochemical changes during storage. For sliced Asian pears, 0.2% L-cysteine and 1% NaCl treatments were effective to reduce browning, and 1% CaCl$_2$ treatment was the most effective to prevent softening during storage at 20$\^{C}$ and 0$\^{C}$. Modified atmosphere packaging of Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinus edodes had a significantly different shelf life depending on packaging material, packaging thickness and storage temperature. Sealed packaging with polyethylene film (60㎛-thick) for two kinds of mushrooms maintained a good quality with an extended shelf life by 30-50% at 20$\^{C}$ and by 30-130% at 0$\^{C}$. To minimize the quality deterioration which appeared in the condition of polyethylene film packaging, quality preservatives such as KMnO$_4$ and KHSO$_2$＋K$_2$S$_2$O$\_$5/ for SO$_2$ generation were added inside of mushroom packaging. The best condition for maintaining good quality longer was packaging with polyethylene film+SO$_2$ which showed 5080% extended shelf life for both Pleurotus ostreatus and Lentinus edodes at 20$\^{C}$ and 0$\^{C}$.

Five environment-friendly farm materials including $Chitomate^{(R)}$, $Diegyun^{(R)}$, IC-$66D^{(R)}$, Gold $Bordo^{(R)}$, and $Biospot^{(R)}$ were examined for their growth inhibition effect of the 7 fungal pathogens of grape in vitro. $Diegyun^{(R)}$, being composed of natural ingredients which are extracted from a plant, was the most effective in suppression of mycelial growth of the fungi. $Diegyun^{(R)}$ inhibited the mycelial growth of all of fungi over 75% at $2,500{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ on potato dextrose agar(PDA) except Colletotrichum gloeosporioides 04-159. Growth inhibition effect of $Chitomate^{(R)}$, being composed of the chitosan, varied depending on the fungal pathogens on PDA. It inhibited the mycelial growth of the Botrytis cinerea 06-063 at the rate of 75.8% at $40,000{\mu}g{\cdot}mL^{-1}$ on PDA while it inhibited the mycelial growth of the C. gloeosporioides 04-159 at the rate of 6.5%. IC-$66D^{(R)}$ and Gold $Bordo^{(R)}$ are two different formula of the Bordeaux mixture, showed different control effects on mycelial growth inhibition. Except of Acremonium sp. the growth inhibition of IC-$66D^{(R)}$ was a little higher than Gold $Bordo^{(R)}$. $Biospot^{(R)}$, a chlorine formula, showed the strongest growth inhibition on C. gloeosporioides 04-159 among the farm materials used. Inhibition of spore germination of $Chitomate^{(R)}$, $Biospot^{(R)}$ and Gold $Bordo^{(R)}$ was higher than mycelial growth inhibition for Pseudocercospora vitis 04-152. The results suggest that the different types of environment-friendly farm materials are needed for different disease control in organic grape farm.

In recent years, significant importance has been given to chitooligosaccharides (COS) due to its potent notable biological applications. COS can be derived from chitosan which is commonly produced by partially hydrolyzed products from crustacean shells. In order to produce COS, there are several approaches including chemical and enzymatic methods which are the two most common choices. In this regard, several new methods were intended to be promoted which use the enzymatic hydrolysis with a lower cost and desired properties. Hence, the dual reactor system has gained more attention than other newly developed technologies. Enzymatic hydrolysis derived COS possesses important biological activities such as anticancer, antioxidant, anti-hypersentive, anti-dementia (Altzheimer's disease), anti-diabeties, anti-allergy, anti-inflammatory, etc. Results strongly suggest that properties of COS can be potential materials for nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and cosmeceutical product development.
