Reciprocal crosses were conducted between three strains of Taiwan Country chickens, developed in the National Chung-Hsing University, and two strains of Single Comb White Leghorns, developed in the Taiwan Livestock Research Institute. Traits studied were growing performances, laying performances, egg quality traits and traits concerning disease resistance, including resistance to Marek's disease virus and immune responses to Newcastle disease virus vaccine and to sheep red blood cell. Results indicated that laying performances of Taiwan country chickens were much inferior to White Leghorns, but they matured earlier, their eggs had better shell strength and larger proportion of yolk, and their general disease resistance was much better than White Leghorns. Heterosis were found in laying performances and egg quality traits. The heterosis in laying traits was so large that the hybrid laid as many eggs and as large eggs as did pure strains of White Leghorns. Strategies on the improvement of native chickens and the utilization of genetic merits of native chickens were also discussed.

Gamma irradiation was applied to reduce egg allergy. Ovalbumin (OVA), an egg white protein, was used as model allergen and was gamma-irradiated at 3, 5, or 10 kGy in an aqueous state (2.0 mg/mL). The changes in allergenic and antigenic properties of OVA resulted from gamma irradiation were monitored by ELISA with serum from egg-hypersensitive patients (H-IgE), and mouse monoclonal IgG (M-IgG) or rabbit polyclonal IgG (R-IgG). The binding ability of H-IgE to irradiated OVA was dose-dependently reduced. However, IgGs from animal did better recognize 3 or 5 kGy-irradiated OVA. In the evaluation of immune reactivity using blind test, the reactivity of H-IgE rapidly decreased depending upon the irradiation dose. However, the reactivities of M-IgG and R-IgG was higher at 5 and 3 kGy-irradiated OVA than non-irradiated control. The results provide a new possibility to use irradiation process for reducing the allergenicity of egg white.

거품성능과 겔형성능이 우수한 것으로 확인된 난백분말(pH 6.34, 72.5$^{\circ}C$; pH 6.74, 66.5$^{\circ}C$; pH 7.72, 76$^{\circ}C$)과 상업용 난백분말로 각각 엔젤 푸드 케이크를 제조하여 일반적인 특성을 조사하였다. pH 6.74, 66.5$^{\circ}C$와 pH 7.72, 76$^{\circ}C$의 조건으로 제조된 난백분말로 만든 엔젤 푸드 케이크의 거품과 반죽의 비중, 케이크의 부피 및 물성 등을 측정한 결과는 난백을 사용하여 만든 대조구와 차이가 없는 것으로 나타나고 있으나 상업용 난백분말로 제조한 케이크는 모든 면에서 크게 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다. 종합적 기호도 면에서는 처리 조건 pH 6.74, 66.5$^{\circ}C$의 난백분말로 만든 엔젤 푸드 케이크만이 대조구와 유사하게 평가되고 나머지는 다소 낮았으며, 상업용 난백분말로 만든 엔젤 푸드 케이크는 아주 낮았다. 따라서 난백의 pH를 6.74로 조정한 후 건조온도 66.5$^{\circ}C$에서 제조한 난백분말은 엔젤 푸드 케이크를 만드는데 적합한 조건으로 나타났다.

In order to investigate the Storage time of chicken eggs, several physico-chemical tests from chicken eggs store at 5, 13 and 27$^{\circ}C$ were examined. Egg samples were collected from six poultry farms. Egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ based on the depth of air cell and specific gravity, were all acceptable until 17 days ; on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg white and egg yolk until about 10 days. Egg stored at 13$^{\circ}C$, based on the depth of air cell. were acceptable by about 10 days of storage, but on the other physico-chemical tests by about 7 days. Egg samples stored at room temperature(about 27$^{\circ}C$) base on the depth of air cell, were acceptable by about 5 days of storage ; on the specific gravity by 4 days ; and on the egg yolk coefficient and pH of the egg yolk and egg white by 3 days. The results of this study showed that egg stored at 5$^{\circ}C$ were considered acceptable by 10 days of storage ; at 13$^{\circ}C$ by 7 days ; at room temperature (27$^{\circ}C$) by 3 days.

본 연구는 한국 재래계의 난질 개량을 위한 기초자료를 얻고자 수행하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 재래계는 개량계(Decalb Brown)에 비하여 난중, 난황중, 농후난백중, 수양난백중, 난각중 등이 가벼웠으나(P＜0.01), 난중비는 차이가 없었다(P＞0.05). 2. 재래계는 개량계에 비하여 난각 형질에서 변이계수가 낮았으며, 이는 환경 적응성이 재래계에서 높음을 시사해 주고 있다. 3. 재래계와 개량계 공히 난중, 난황중, 농후난백중, 수양난백중, 그리고 난각중 간의 표현상관이 높았고(P＜0.01), 특히 재래계에서 0.842~0.992 로 높아서, 난중 개량에 의한 간접 선발의 효과가 클 것으로 기대되었다. 4. 난각두께에서 재래계와 개량계가 각각 362.5와 407.9 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 로서 차이가 있었다(P<0.01). 5. 재래계는 개량계에 비하여 난의 각 형질에서 회귀계수가 공히 낮게 나타나서 난중개량과 동시에 난각 형질의 개량이 요구되었다.

난백에 있는 40여 가지의 단백질의 기능적 특성에 대한 연구가 폭 넓게 진행되고 있지만, 그 특성이 모두 확인되지 않았다. 난백에서 순수하면서 변성되지 않은 단백질을 분리하는 방법을 연구하기 위해 본 연구에서는 난백 중 함량이 많은 lysozyme, ovotransferrin, ovalbumin을 분리했다. 난백에서 단백질을 다른 분리 방법보다 선택적으로 분리가 가능한 이온 교환 크로마토그래피를 이용했다. 그리고 분리된 단백질을 동정하기 위해서 Reversed-phase HPLC (RP-HPLC)를 사용했다. 이온 교환 크로마토그래피에서 HI Trap ion exchange cartridge (GE Healthcare, USA)를 사용했고, 그 중에서 양이온 교환 수지 SP (완충용액 pH 8.0, pH 5.2)와 음이온 교환 수지 Q (완충용액 pH 8.0)로 난백 단백질을 분리하였다. 분리한 난백 단백질들의 동정용 RP-HPLC에서는 C18 컬럼(Phenomenex, USA)을 사용했고 등용매 용리에서 이동상으로 acetonitrile (ACN)/distilled water (DW)/trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)의 부피비를 50/50/0.1로 사용했다. 이온 교환 크로마토그래피에 의해 각 단계에서 분리된 용출용액을 RP-HPLC으로 분석한 크로마토그램과 표준시료의 크로마토그램의 체류시간을 비교하여 난백에 포함된 ovotransferrin, ovalbumin, lysozyme이 순차적으로 용출됨을 알았다.

The objectives of the present study were to examine the antioxidant activity of autofocusing fractions from egg white protein hydrolysates and obtain higher antioxidant peptide fraction, which could be applied to the food model system. Alkaline protease hydrolysate of egg white protein exerted higher antioxidant activities than other protein hydrolysates and were fractionated on the basis of the amphoteric nature of sample peptides by preparative isoelectric focusing without toxic solvents and reagents, which is termed autofocusing. Neutral and basic fractions showed higher 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity than the acidic fractions. The acidic and neutral fractions showed higher hydroxyl (OH) radical scavenging activity and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) values than the basic fractions. The acidic fractions showed higher metal chelating activity than basic fractions. Antioxidant activities of some autofocusing fractions except for ORAC showed higher compared to the crude hydrolysate. These results suggest that peptides fractions from egg white protein are effective antioxidant, and that autofocusing could be useful to increase antioxidant activity for application to food system.

Genetic variations of seven egg white protein loci in 1,112 samples from eight Asian countries (Yunnan province of China, Mongolia, Nepal, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar, Indonesia) and 360 samples from two improved breeds (Isa Brown, Boris Brown) were investigated by using starch gel and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Five egg white protein loci (Ov, $G_3$, $G_2$, $G_1$ and $Tf_{EW}$) were found to be polymorphic in Asian native chicken populations. The proportion of polymorphic loci ($P_{poly}$) and average heterozygosity ($\bar{H}$) of Asian native populations varied from 0.143 to 0.714 and 0.014 to 0.225, respectively, and were higher than those of improved breeds. The subdivision index ($G_{ST}$) value among 18 native chicken populations in Asia is lower (0.0827) than among improved chicken populations (0.1693). This value means that the degree of subdivision among Asian native populations is lower than among improved breeds and gene constitutions among populations in Asia are similar.

Lysosomes, as a cell organelle type, are safe biological control agents that may be possible replacements for chemical antimicrobial agents because they are simply isolated from egg white. In this study, it was found that the lysosomes isolated from egg white exhibited pH-dependent antimicrobial activity, with the optimal activity found at pH 6.0. The efficiency of lysosomes in inhibiting bacterial growth and activity was evaluated over a 12-h treatment period. Seven different microorganisms were used as bacterial strains, and the lysosomes showed a significant antimicrobial effect against all strains. In addition, the antimicrobial activity was maintained for 100 days, and there did not appear to be any resistance of E. coli to the lysosomal activity up to the eighth culture. However, the lysosomes did not affect the viability of mammalian cells, suggesting the biocompatibility of lysosomes. These highly effective lysosomes have a bright future in the application of novel antimicrobial sources as a cell organelle type.
