As the demand for ready-to-eat foods continues to grow, concerns about the sodium in processed foods are also growing. In this study, a survey was conducted on the perception of low-sodium products and diffusion plans according to the type of employee (manufacturer, retailer, distributor). Of the 191 responses collected, 189 valid responses (98.9%) were analyzed. The results showed that the employees were aware of the health contribution of a low-sodium diet, labeling for low-sodium, and the promotion of low-sodium food to increase its consumption. Furthermore, retailers recognized the positive contribution of low-sodium products in terms of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) management. The use of sodium substitutes was preferred as the best way to reduce sodium in ready-to-eat foods. With regard to sodium reduction in ready-to-eat foods, we found that the technical factors involved were clustered by the type of business. Specifically, distributors showed a similar performance but had a lower perception of importance than retailers. Manufacturers had a lower perception of both importance and performance. In this study, we collected perceptions from employees who were working at food companies, which differed from previous research. We sought to examine the differences in the perception of sodium reduction and consumption of ready-to-eat foods across various types of employment. Furthermore, we provided specific approaches to reduce perception gaps and enhance understanding among employees.

Oxytocin (OT)-related peptide, isotocin was purified from the brain extract of conger eel (Conger myriaster) using reverse-phase, ion-exchange and size exclusion high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The sequence of the peptide, with a molecular weight of 967.30 Da, was determined as Cys-Tyr-Ile-Ser-Asn­Cys-Pro-Ile-Gly-$NH_2$, where the Cys between 1st and 6th residues made an intramolecular disulfide bridge by the automated amino acid sequence analysis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. The sequence was confirmed by identical elution with the purified and synthetic peptide using the HPLC system. As a result of homology investigation, the primary structure of this peptide was the same as that of OT -superfamily member, isotocin. The synthetic peptide showed a contractile activity at a minimal effective concentration of $10^{-7}M$ on the intestinal smooth muscle of goldfish (Carassius auratus).

The SMG1 lipase from Malassezia globosa is a newly found mono- and diacylglycerol (DAG) lipase that has a unique lid in the loop conformation that differs from the common alpha-helix lid. In the present study, we characterized the contribution of three residues, L103 and F104 in the lid and F278 in the rim of the binding site groove, on the function of SMG1 lipase. Site-directed mutagenesis was conducted at these sites, and each of the mutants was expressed in the yeast Pichia pastoris, purified, and characterized for their activity toward DAG and p-nitrophenol (pNP) ester. Compared with wild-type SMG1, F278A retained approximately 78% of its activity toward DAG, but only 11% activity toward pNP octanoate (pNP-C8). L103G increased its activity on pNP-C8 by approximately 2-fold, whereas F104G showed an approximate 40% decrease in pNP-C8 activity, and they both showed decreased activity on the DAG emulsion. The deletion of 103-104 retained approximately 30% of its activity toward the DAG emulsion, with an almost complete loss of pNP-C8 activity. The deletion of 103-104 showed a weaker penetration ability to a soybean phosphocholine monolayer than wild-type SMG1. Based on the modulation of the specificity and activity observed, a pNP-C8 binding model for the ester (pNP-C8, N102, and F278 form a flexible bridge) and a specific lipid-anchoring mechanism for DAG (L103 and F104 serve as "anchors" to the lipid interface) were proposed.

유제품(乳製品)의 품질(品質)과 밀접(密接)하게 관련(關聯)되어 있는 skim milk protein의 가열(加熱)에 의(依)한 상대변화(狀態變化)를 단백질(蛋白質) 화학적(化學的) 측면(側面)에서 연구(硏究)하였다. 1. Skim milk 중의 calcium농도(濃度)가 높아질수록 가열시(加熱時) 점도(粘度)는 급증(急增)하였으며 gel화(化)가 일어나는 온도(溫度)는 점점 저하(低下)되었다. 이러한 사실(事實)로 보아 calcium ion은 유단백질(乳蛋白質)의 열안정성(熱安定性)에 결정적(結定的) 영향(影響)을 미치며 calcium존재(存在) 하(下)에서 가열(加熱)시킬 때에는 우유단백질(牛乳蛋白質)들을 균일분산계(均一分散系)로부터 불균일회합상태(不均一會合狀態)로 전이(轉移)시키는 것으로 결론(結論)되었다. 2. 일정(一定) 온도(溫度) skim milk의 안정성(安定性)에 대(對)한 가열시간(加熱時間)의 효과(效果)는 전혀 나타나지 않았다. 3. 등전침전(等電沈電)시킨 casein을 재용해(再溶解)시킨 후(後), skim milk 내(內)에서와 동일(同一)한 calcium농도(濃度) 환경(環境)으로 조절(調節)하고 가열(加熱)하였을 때 skim milk가 불안정성(不安定性)을 보이는 온도(溫度)보다도 저온(低溫)에서 침전(沈澱)으로 분리(分離)되었다. 따라서 가열(加熱)에 불안정(不安定)한 구분(區分)은 whey protein일 것으로 추정(推定)하였으며, 이는 skim milk 내(內)에서 casein에 의(依)하여 보호(保護)되는 것으로 해석(解析)되었다. 5. pH를 변경(變更)시킨 skim milk의 점도(粘度) 증가(增加)에는 calcium ion에 의(依)한 기여(寄與)가 컸으며, calcium은 유단백질(乳蛋白質)의 응집(凝集)을 촉진(促進)할 때 Ca-bridge로 작용(作用)하는 것이라고 결론(結論)되었다. 6. 비가열(非加熱)의 skim milk는 6개의 fraction으로 분획(分劃)되었음에 비(比)하여, $95^{\circ}C$에서 10분(分) 가열(加熱)했을 때는 fraction A 및 B가 소실(消失)되었고 새로운 fraction F@를 출현(出現)시켰다. 7. Electrophoretogram에서 fraction C 및 C#는 모두 3개의 band를, fraction F 및 F#는 모두 4개의 band를 나타냈으며 가열(加熱) 전후(前後)의 이동도(移動度)에도 차이(差異)가 없었다. Fraction D는 6개의 band로 D#에는 그 외(外)에도 3개의 band가 더 나타났다. fraction E 및 E#는 모두 4개의 band를 보였으나, 그 성분(成分)들의 이동도(移動度)는 모두 대응(對應)되지 않았다. Fraction A 및 B, 그리고 fraction D 및 E에는 가열(加熱)로 인(因)하여 변화(變化)를 받게되는 유단백성분(乳蛋白成分)이 포함(包含)되어 있을 것으로 추정(推定)되었다.
