  • Microbial induction of rusty-root was proved in this study. The enzymes hydrolyzing plant structural materials, including pectinase, pectolyase, ligninase, and cellulase, caused the rusty-root in ginseng. Pectinase and pectolyase produced the highest rusty-color formation. Ferrous ion ($Fe^{+++}$) caused the synergistic effect on rusty-root formation in ginseng when it was used with pectinase. The effect of ferric ion ($Fe^{++}$) on rusty-root formation was slow, compared with $Fe^{+++}$, probably due to gradual oxidation to $Fe^{+++}$. Other metal ions including the ferric ion ($Fe^{++}$) did not affect rusty-root formation. The endophytic bacteria Agrobacterium tumefaciens, Lysobacter gummosus, Pseudomonas veronii, Pseudomonas marginalis, Rhodococcus erythropolis, and Rhodococcus globerulus, and the rotten-root forming phytophathogenic fungus Cylindrocarpon destructans, caused rusty-root. The polyphenol formation (rusty color) was not significantly different between microorganisms. The rotten-root-forming C. destructans produced large quantities of external cellulase activity (${\approx}2.3$ U[${\mu}m$/min/mg protein]), which indicated the pathogenecity of the fungus, whereas the bacteria produced 0.1-0.7 U. The fungal external pectinase activities (0.05 U) and rusty-root formation activity were similar to those of the bacteria. In this report, we proved that microbial hydrolyzing enzymes caused rusty-root (Hue value $15^{\circ}$) of ginseng, and ferrous ion worsened the symptom.

  • BACKGROUND: Groundwater is believed to possess many beneficial effects due to its natural source of various minerals. In this study, we examined the effects of natural Jeju groundwater S1 (Samdasoo$^{TM}$), S2 and S3 pumped up from different locations of Jeju Island, Korea, along with local tap water, on body weight gain, serum lipids and lipoproteins, and liver histopathology in high-fat diet-induced hyperlipidemic rats. MATERIALS/METHODS: Rats were randomly and equally divided into 6 groups. Different water samples were supplied to the hyperlipidemic rats as their daily drinking water and the widely-used anti-hyperlipidemic drug simvastatin was used as a positive control. Body weight, serum lipids and lipoproteins were measured weekly. Liver weight, liver index and liver histopathology were examined after the execution of the rats. RESULTS: After drinking Jeju groundwaters for two months, S2 but not S3 significantly reduced weight growth and serum triglycerides levels and increased high density lipoprotein-C (HDL-C) without affecting total cholesterol or LDL-C. S1 and particularly S2 significantly reduced the severity of liver hypertrophy and steatosis. All Groundwaters had much higher contents of vanadium (S3>S2>S1>>tap water) whereas S1 and S2 but not S3 markedly blocked autoxidation of ferrous ions. CONCLUSION: Jeju Groundwater S1 and particularly S2 exhibit protective effects against hyperlipidemia and fatty liver and hypothesize that the beneficial effect of Jeju Groundwaters may be contributed from blockade of autoxidation of ferrous ions rather than their high contents of vanadium.

  • 원자로 냉각계통의 방사성 오염물질을 제거하기 위한 제염공정에서 유기산에 용해된 금속이온들은 이온교환 수지를 통과하면서 제거된다. 그러나 제염용액내 유기산들은 용액내 금속이온과 착화합물을 형성하여 이온교환수지에 대한 친화도를 감소시킨다. 이같은 관점에서 착화합물 형성이 이온교환공정에 미치는 영향 해석을 위해 코발트와 철 이온을 대상으로 Amberlite IRN-77 양이온수지와의 이온교환실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과에서 화학제염제로 사용된 유기산 가운데 EDTA는 철 이온보다 코발트 이온과 강한 착화합물을 형성하여 코발트 이온의 수지에 대한 이온교환용량을 현저히 감소시켜 주는 성분으로 나타났다. 반면에, Oxalic Acide와 Citric Acide의 영향은 미미하였다. 또한, 실험결과로부터 이들 금속이온 들에 대한 단일 성분계 및 2성분계 비선형 평형식을 결정하였다.

  • 다양한 유산균들이 생체에 유익한 영향을 주는 프로바이오틱스로 제시되고 있는 가운데, 본 연구에서는 L. kimchicus, L. lactis, L. casei, L. plantarum, LGG 및 Leu. mesenteroides 등 유산균 6종을 선별하여 균주별 nitrate의 환원과 nitrite의 소거, 그리고 철 이온에 대한 환원활성을 분석하였다. 사용된 6종의 유산균 중, 5종의 균주에서 72시간 배양시간 동안 nitrate에 대한 환원현상이 나타나지 않았으나, L. kimchicus는 nitrate의 환원을 통해 과량의 nitrite를 생성했다. 한편, nitrite 소거활성은 균주별로 상당한 차이를 보였으며, 특히 L. kimchicus는 nitrate와의 반응과 마찬가지로 가장 높은 소거능을 나타내어 반응시간과 균수에 따른 급격한 배지 중 nitrite 수준 감소를 유도하였다. Ferric ion의 ferrous ion으로의 환원에 있어서도 L. kimchicus가 다른 5종의 균주에 비해 420-1500배의 높은 활성을 보였다. L. kimchicus의 환원활성은 멸균처리 균주나 균체 용해물에서는 거의 발현되지 않아 생균의 대사능력에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 L. kimchicus의 활성은 프로바이오틱스로서의 효과뿐만 아니라, 관련 환원활성에 의한 NO 등 유용 포스트바이오틱스 대사물에 의한 효과도 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

  • Vegetables are known to contain high amounts of natural antioxidants such as ascorbate, $\alpha$-tocopherol, $\beta$-carotene, and flavinoids. The antioxidant activities of several vegetables including broccoli, carrot , green pepper, spinach and tomato, and their blends were investigated using various iron-catalyzed lipid peroxidation systems. In linoleic acid micelles, carrot and spinach significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation by 29.0% and 35.8% , respectively (p<0.05).Blends of two, three , or four vegetables indluding spinach increased the inhibitory effect on lipid peroxidation, mainly due to high level of antioxidants in spinach. In beef homogenates, tomato significantly inhibited lipid peroxidation by 19.9%(p<0.05), whereas spinach and broccoli significantly stimulated lipid peroxidation by 67.3% and 11.5%, respectively (p<0.05). In the presence of 100$\mu$M ferrous ions, all vegetables inhibited degradation of deoxy-ribose by 43.6~77.6%(p<0.05). In the presence of 100$\mu$M ferric ions , broccoli and spinach stimulated deoxyribose degradation by 39.8% and 55.8%, respectively. These results indicate that the antioxidant activity of vegetables varied with the different model systems and depended on the provided environment such as iron content and substrates. The activity of the various combinations (blends) of vegetables was strongly related to that of the individual vegetable.

  • The objective of this study was to determine on optimum ratio of oxidant and catalyst and to evaluate affecting factors such as anions and cations on persulfate oxidation of organic pollutant. Fe(II) activated the persulfate anion to produce a sulfate free radicals and thus effectively used to degrade the target organic pollutant in aqueous system. The chloride ions reacted with sulfate radical produced the $Cl^{\cdot}$ atom and had positive effects on the oxidation of organic pollutant at the initial stage. However, it was observed that chloride ions had the scavenging effects on the rate of oxidation of organic pollutant. Cations and some heavy metals were partly able to activate the persulfate anion to generate a sulfate free radical. However, high levels of cations inhibited the oxidation of organic pollutant.

  • Nanoscale zero valent ion (nZVI) technology is emerging as an innovative method to treat contaminated groundwater. The activity of nZVI is very high due to their high specific surface area, and supporting this material can help to preserve its chemical nature by inhibiting oxidation. In this study, nZVI particles were attached to granular ion-exchange resin through borohydride reduction of ferrous ions, and chemical reduction of nitrate by this material was investigated as a potential technology to remove nitrate from groundwater. The pore structure and physical characteristics were measured and the change by the adsorption of nZVI was discussed. Batch tests were conducted to characterize the activity of the supported nZVI and the results indicated that the degradation of nitrate appeared to be a pseudo first-order reaction with the observed reaction rate constant of $0.425h^{-1}$ without pH control. The reduction process continued but at a much lower rate with a rate constant of $0.044h^{-1}$, which is likely limited by mass transfer. To assess the effects of other ions commonly found in groundwater, the same experiments were conducted in simulated groundwater with the same level of nitrate. In simulated groundwater, the rate constant was $0.078h^{-1}$ and it also reduced to $0.0021h^{-1}$ in later phase. The major limitation in application of ZVI for nitrate reduction is ammonium production. By using a support material with ion exchange capacity, the problem of ammonium release can be solved. The ammonium was not detected in the batch test, even when other competitive ions such as calcium and potassium existed.

  • 본 연구에서는 Al과 $UO_2$의 나노미터 크기의 무기물 입자를 합성하기 위하여 생체 시스템인 철단백질 ferritin을 이용하였다. Ferritin에서 합성된 Al과 $UO_2$의 무기물 입자를 TEM을 이용하여 관찰한 결과, 단백질 내부에 나노미터 크기의 구형인 미네랄(mineral) core를 확인하였다. 그 입자들에 대한 EDXA분석 결과 각각 Al과 $UO_2$로 구성된 미네랄임을 확인하였다. Ferritin을 이용하여 합성된 Al core는 이번 연구에서 처음으로 전자현미경으로 관찰되었다. 그리고 두 종류의 다른 금속 즉, Al/Fe및 $UO_2/Al$의 존재하에 ferritin core를 합성하여 TTM을 관찰한 결과, 역시 나노미터 크기의 구형인 전자밀도 core를 관찰하였고 EDXA분석 결과 구형인 core가 합성시킨 두 금속 원소의 미네랄로 구성되어 있음을 증명하였다. 그리하여 본 연구는 철단백질을 이용하여 철이 아닌 Al과 $UO_2$로 구성된 나노미터 크기의 무기물 입자를 합성할 수 있음을 증명하였다.
