  • 게장제품의 미생물학적, 화학적 안전성을 평가하기 위하여 지표미생물, 병원성미생물, 기생충, pH, VBN, 염도, 3-MCPD, histamine, 그리고 타르색소를 분석하였다. 게장의 총균수는 3-7 log cfu/g 수준으로 전반적으로 간장 게장보다 양념 게장에서 더 높게 검출되었으며, 대장균군은 검출되지 않거나 최대 4 log cfu/g 수준까지 검출되었다. 병원성 미생물의 조사에서 V. parahaemolyticus는 4점의 게장에서 검출되었으며 이 중 1점은 E. coli와 기생충 Copepoda도 함께 검출된 것도 있었다. 전반적으로 게장의 pH는 $6.69{\sim}8.10$ 범위에서 측정되었으며 VBN value는 $21.99{\sim}94.55$ mg%까지 측정되었다. Fig. 4에 나타낸 게장의 염도는 간장 참게장 $11.6{\sim}32.6%$, 간장 꽃게장 $2.8{\sim}20.5%$, 간장 돌게장 $11.6{\sim}13.3%$, 양념 게장 $2.6{\sim}9.4%$로 양념 게장은 전반적으로 간장 게장보다 염도가 낮은 수준으로 나타났다. 아울러 타르색소, 3-MCPD, histamine은 무작위로 선별된 게장에서는 모두 검출되지 않아 국내 관리기준에 적합한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 유통 중의 게장 제품들은 안전한 것으로 평가되나 생물학적 검사 결과에서 원재료 관리, 위생적인 제품 생산 및 유통 관리가 적극적으로 이루어져야 할 것으로 판단된다.

  • In recent years, manufacturers of animal-based foods with health claims have encountered difficulties in the labeling of their products because of a lack of regulation on defining the functionality of animal-based foods. Therefore, this study was conducted to establish the basic requirements for the development of a definition for functional animal-based foods by investigating consumer and industry awareness. Survey data were collected from 114 industry representatives and 1,100 consumers. The questions of the survey included items on production status and future production plans, functionality labeling, promotion plans, establishment of definition, the role of the government, consumer perception, and selection of products. The results show that both industry representatives and consumers believe that legislation and the provision of scientific evidence should be improved for the development of a functional animal-based foods market. The results obtained from this study will contribute to consumer trust by supplying correct information and can be utilized in the industry as basic data for the development of functional animal-based food products.

  • 식약처는 유전자변형식품의 사전 안전관리를 위하여 "식품위생법"에 따라 안전성 심사를 거쳐 안전성이 입증된 식품만 수입 유통되도록 의무화하고 있으며, 승인받지 않은 품목은 수입통관단계에서 검사를 실시하여 국내에 유입되지 않도록 관리하고 있다. "유전자변형식품등의 안전성 심사 등에 관한 규정"에 따라 제출된 안전성 자료에 대해 '유전자변형 식품등 안전성 심사위원회'에서 심사하고, 국민 의견을 수렴하여 승인 여부를 결정한다. 또한 안전성 승인이 되었더라도 10년이 경과된 유전자변형식품은 다시 안전성 심사를 하여 안전성을 재확인하고 있다. 우리나라에서는 1999년 안전성심사를 시작하여 2000년에 최초로 유전자변형 콩을 승인하였으며, '19년 4월 현재 안전성 심사를 통해 승인된 유전자변형식품은 총 199건이다(농산물 169건, 미생물 6건, 식품첨가물 24건). 앞으로도 식약처에서는 최초 안전성 심사 뿐 아니라, 승인 후 10년이 경과되는 유전자변형식품 품목에 대한 안전성 재심사를 통해 안전성을 재확인할 계획이며, 기존에 개발된 제초제내성, 해충저항성 유전자변형식품 외에 새로운 특성을 부여한 유전자변형식품의 개발 증가에 따라 이들 품목의 안전성 심사를 위하여 CODEX, OECD 등 국제적인 규제 조화를 바탕으로 심사항목 정비 등 사전안전관리를 강화할 계획이다.

  • 미국 정부는 2011년 식품안전현대화법(FSMA, Food Safety Modernization Act)을 제정하였으며 단계적으로 실시 및 실시예정에 있다. 이중 농산물안전(Produce Safety) 최종규칙은 농산물 재배, 수확, 포장 및 보관과 관련된 생물학적 위해요소에 초점을 맞추고 있는데, 영농규모 등에 따라 2017년 1월부터 단계적으로 시행되고 있다. FSMA의 농산물안전 규칙 중 현장에서 준수해야 하는 조항을 55개 선별하여 한국 GAP기준과 비교한 결과, 비교 대상인 두 개의 기준이 조항별 관리사항에 대해 1:1로 단순비교하기에는 어려운 점이 있으나 상당수의 한국 GAP기준이 대응이 가능하다. 다만 한국 GAP기준은 포괄적 기준으로 평가자에 따라 다른 판단을 할 여지가 많으므로 기준의 세부 사항의 보강이 필요하다. 조항별로 보면, 작업자 안전위생(FSMA Subpart D)에 대하여 한국 GAP기준은 가장 높게 대응이 되며, 그 다음으로는 가축 및 야생 동물(FSMA Subpart I), 건물 장비 도구(FSMA Subpart L), 재배 수확 등의 활동(FSMA Subpart K) 순으로 대응이 되고 있다. 그러나, 농업용수 관리(FSMA Subpart E)와 관리자의 자격 및 교육(FSMA Subpart C)에 대해서는 다소 미흡한 실정이며, 가축분뇨기반 퇴비 관리(FSMA Subpart F)에 대해서는 대응이 취약한 편이다. FSMA 규칙은 인증 기준은 아니나, 세계적으로 식품안전의 표준을 선도하는 미국이 제시한 규칙인 만큼 파급력이 상당할 것으로 예상된다. 따라서 국내 농산물 기준 중 FSMA 규칙에서 강조하는 미생물적 안전성에 대응하는 기준이 GAP기준이므로 한국 GAP기준의 재검토를 통해 우리 농산물의 품질 향상 및 수출확대에 도움이 되기를 바란다.

  • The regulations for migration amounts in USA, EU and Korea are investigated to compare the actual overall and specific migration date from plastic food packaging materials. Among the packaging materials regulated in above countries, printing ink solvents on packaging materials is used very widely and sometimes cause off-flavor in the food by migration of residual solvents. Even though migration of the residual solvents dose not generally cause safety problems in the contained food, it certainly can generate off-flavor and finally deteriorate quality of the finished product. Therefore regulation and development of analytical method for amount of residual ink solvents are very important issue in food industry. The headspace analytical method and tenax method for residual ink solvent on food packaging materials were evaluated from the accuracy, precise, swiftness and convenience of viewpoint. Headspace analytical method was selected and recommended for using in food industry field.

  • The Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey of 2013 to 2017 reported that the average protein consumption of the Korean population is above the current recommended nutrient intake of protein proposed by the Dietary Reference Intakes for Koreans. Some health professionals and the media often advise consuming diets high in protein for promoting metabolic regulation, weight control, and muscle synthesis. However, due to lack of scientific evidence, the validity and safety of high protein consumption are yet to be fully ascertained. The present review assesses recent evidence published in 2014-2020 from human studies, focusing on adequate protein intake and protein sources for the prevention of chronic diseases, particularly metabolic disorders and sarcopenia.

  • Approvals of medical device increase every year as industry of medical device grows. Therefore KFDA keeps trying to improve approval systems. However, the firms of medical device are in trouble due to regulation amendment, a firm of small size, exchange of the person in charge. The staffs of KFDA increase their work load because applicants of approval of medical device aren't used to writing of document. Therefore the firm of medical device in business have a long term. KFDA develops eight guidance document item by item for one-step evaluation and approval for Medical Devices because applicants of approval of medical device write documents easily. KFDA reviewer can carry on quick reviewing in use of this eight guidances. This guidance are improved on satisfaction of applicants of approval of medical device.

  • Acarviosine-glucose (AcvGlc) is an ${\alpha}$-glucosidase inhibitor and has similar inhibitory activity to acarbose in vitro. We synthesized AcvGlc by treating acarbose with Bacillus stearothermophilus maltogenic amylase and fed C57BL/6J and db/db mice with diets containing purified AcvGlc and acarbose for 1 week. AcvGlc (50 and 100 mg/100 g diet) significantly reduced plasma glucose and triglyceride levels in db/db mice by 42 and 51 %, respectively (p<0.0001). The hypoglycemic and hypotriglyceridemic effects of AcvGlc were slightly, but significantly, greater than those seen with acarbose treatment (p<0.0001) in C57BL/6J mice. In an oral glucose tolerance test, glucose tolerance was significantly improved at all time points (p<0.01). The expression of two novel glucose transporters (GLUTs), GLUT10 and GLUT12, were examined by Western blot analysis. GLUT10 was markedly increased in the db/db livers. After AcvGlc treatment, the expression of hepatic GLUT10 was decreased whereas intestinal GLUT12 was significantly increased in both strains of mice. Our results show that AcvGlc improves plasma lipid and glucose metabolism slightly more than acarbose. Regulation of hepatic GLUT10 and intestinal GLUT12 may be important in controlling blood glucose levels.

  • Purpose: The treatment of thyroid cancer patients was continuously increased. According to the increment of thyroid cancer patients, the establishment of iodine therapy site was also increased in each hospital. This treatment involves the administration of radioactive iodine, which will be given in the form of a capsule. Therefore, protections and managements for radioactive source pollution and radiation exposure should be necessary for radiation safety. Among the many problems, the problem of disposing the radioactive wastes was occurred. In this study, The date for self-disposal for radioactive wastes, which were contaminated in clothes, bedclothes and trash, were calculated. Materials and Methods: The number of iodine therapy ward was 15 in Korea Institute of Radiological Medical and Sciences. Recently, 8 therapy wards were operated for iodine therapy patients and others were on standby for emergency treatment ward of any radiation accidents. Radioactive wastes, which were occurred in therapy ward, were clothes, bedclothes, bath cover for patients washing water and food and drink which was leftover by patients. Each sample was hold into the marinelli beaker (clothes, bedclothes, bath covers) and 90 ml beaker (food, drink, and washing water). The activities of collected samples were measured by HpGe MCA device (Multi Channel Analysis, CANBERRA, USA) Results: The storage period for the each kind of radioactive wastes was calculated by equation of storage periods based on the measurement outcomes. The average storage period was 60 days for the case of clothes, and the maximum storage period was 93 days for patient bottoms. The average storage period and the maximum storage period for the trash were 69 days and 97 days, respectively. The leftover foods and drinks had short storage period (the average storage period was 25 days and maximum storage period was 39 days), compared with other wastes. Conclusion: The proper storage period for disposing the radioactive waste (clothes, bedclothes and bath cover) was 100 days by the regulation on self-disposal of radioactive waste. In addition, the storage period for disposing the liquid radioactive waste was 120 days. The current regulation for radioactive waste self-disposing was not suitable for the circumstances of each radioactive therapy facility. Therefore, it was necessary to reduce the leftover food and drinks by adequate table setting for patients, and improve the process and regulation for disposing the short-half life radioactive wastes.
