The present study was carried out from September 2007 to February 2008 in Umfakarin natural forest reserve, South Kordofan, Sudan. The objective was to analyze the effect of different management strategies on yield of gum talha from Acacia seyal. A total of 493 single target trees were selected, based on their diameters, and assigned to tapping treatments in three different stand densities (making a total of nine treatments per stand density). The treatments are as follows: tapping date with three levels (first of October, 15 October and first of November) and two levels of local tapping tools (sonki, and makmak). Untapped trees were used as control. The first picking of gum was started fifteen days after tapping while the subsequent pickings were done in intervals of fifteen days. Yield per tree throughout the season was obtained by summing up the gum yield from all pickings. Yield throughout the season (from first to the last picking) were analyzed. General linear model (GLM) was used to test the effect of different tapping treatments on the yield of gum talha. Post hoc test after analysis of variance (ANOVA) based on Scheffe test was performed to examine the differences in gum yield as a result of different management strategies. The results showed that tapping has a significant influence on gum yield. Analysis of pick-to-pick yield indicated that only three treatments in dense stand density showed a decreasing pattern while the rest of treatments either have constant or unclear patterns. The results of the present study were based on a single season data and that may underscore the real effect of Acacia seyal stands' management strategies on gum talha yield. Conducting gum yield experiments in permanent trial plots are highly recommended in order to analyze gum yield of seasonal time series.

The diseases caused by Xylella fastidiosa are associated with aggregation of the bacteria m xylem vessels, formation of a gummy matrix and subsequent blockage of water uptake. In the closely related pathogen, Xanthomonas campestris, xanthan gum is known to be an important virulence factor, probably contributing to bacterial adhesion, aggregation and plugging of xylem. Xanthan gum, produced by X. campestris, is an extra-cellular polysaccharide consisting of a cellulose backbone ($\bate$-1,4-linked D-glucose) with trisaccharide side chains composed of mannose, glucuronic acid and mannose attached to alternate glucose residues in the backbone. We had constructed a mutant of X. campestris lacking gumI gene that is responsible for adding the terminal mannose for producing modified xanthan gum which is similar to xanthan gum fromX. fastidiosa. The modified xanthan gum degrading endgphytic bacterium Acineto-bacter johnsonii GX123 isolated from the oleander infected with leaf scorch disease.

Extraction is the most important and tedious step to determine water-soluble vitamin C in water-insoluble chewing gum. For the rapid determination of vitamin C in chewing gum, a new method of dispersion in tetrahydrofuran(THF) was performed. Vitamin C was easily extracted from gum base using THF The content of vitamin C in chewing gum was rapidly quantified with high reliability by an enzymatic method using a chewing gum sample dispersed in tetrahydrofuran.

본 연구는 순두부찌개 소스의 품질 특성에 영향을 주는 guar gum의 농도를 다르게 첨가하여 제조한 순두부찌개 소스의 품질 특성의 변화를 알아보고 그 특성들이 소비자 기호도에 어떤 영향을 끼치는지 알아보았다. 그 결과 짠맛은 guar gum 농도의 증가에 따라 유의적으로 감소하는 결과를 보였고 소비자 기호도에 영향을 주는 인자로는 조개맛, 새우맛, 파향이 나타났으며, 모두 부정적인 영향을 주는 인자로 나타났다. 순두부찌개 소스의 유동 특성은 guar gum 농도가 증가할수록 pseudoplastic 한 성질이 증가되는 결과가 나타났으며 guar gum 농도의 증가와 소비자 기호도를 토대로 소비자 기호도 예측 모델을 개발하였다. 그 결과 guar gum의 농도가 증가할수록 소비자 기호도가 감소하였고 소비자 기호도를 보통 이상으로 유지하기 위해서는 겉보기 점도를 0.0114($Pa{\cdot}s$) 이하로 유지해야 할 것으로 사료된다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 guar gum 함량에 따른 소스 제품의 품질 평가의 기초 연구로 소스 제품의 품질 최적화에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

메밀분 30%와 강력분 70%의 복합분으로 강력분만을 사용한 이스트 발효빵과 유사하도록 메밀빵을 만들기 위하여 활성 글루텐과 gum 물질을 첨가하였으며 복합분의 제빵 적성에 미치는 그들의 효과를 알아보기 위하여 첨가물별 메밀빵의 물리적, 관능적 검사를 통하여 메밀빵의 품질 특성을 비교하였다. 메밀에 결여된 글루텐의 기능성을 보완하기 위하여 활성 글루텐과 gum물질을 첨가한 결과 메밀빵의 부피와 무게가 모두 증가하였으며 그 효과는 xanthan gum>활성 글루텐>guar gum 순 이었고, 단독 사용시보다는 활성 글루텐과 gum물질을 같이 사용하였을 때 효과가 더욱 증대되어 대조구 밀빵과 유사한 부피를 나타내었다. 빵 껍질색은 guar gum의 첨가로 L, a값이 증가하여 밝아졌고 xanthan gum을 첨가한 경우에는 L, b값이 감소하여 상대적으로 어두운 색을 나타내었다. 빵 내부색은 활성 글루텐과 xanthan gum 첨가로 L, b값이 감소하여 어두워졌다. 관능검사 QDA 결과 메밀빵에 활성 글루텐이나 gum 물질을 첨가함으로써 빵 속의 부서짐성이 유의적으로 감소되었고 그 밖의 탄력성, 촉촉함, 깔깔함 등의 조직감이 개선되었다. Amylograph에서 호화는 밀가루보다 메밀가루가 낮은 온도에서 일찍 시작되었고 최고 점도는 밀가루보다 메밀가루가 현저히 높았다. 메밀가루 30%와 강력분 70%의 복합분에 활성 글루텐과 gum물질을 간이 첨가함으로써 호화 점도가 감소되고 제빵 적성이 개선되었다. 또한 100% 강력분의 호화 점도쪽으로 낮아질수록 관능검사에서 메밀랑은 부드럽고 촉촉하게 나타났으며 부서지는 정도도 감소하였다. 이러한 관점에서 첨가물에 따른 메밀빵의 저장기간 중 노화변화에 대한 연구가 수행되어져야 할 것으로 사려된다.

몬테카를로 시뮬레이션 방법과 측정불확도 표현 지침은 불확도 평가를 위해 가장 널리 사용되는 방법들이다. 본 논문에서는 자체 개발된 질량관성모멘트 측정장비의 신뢰도를 평가하기 위해 몬테카를로 방법과 GUM방법이 사용되었다. 결과에 따르면 GUM방법에 의해 평가된 불확도가 몬테카를로 방법에 의한 것보다 약간 과소평가되었고 그 차이는 GUM방법의 근사화에 기인한 것으로, 두 방법에 의해 평가된 관성모멘트 불확도들은 추정량의 1% 미만으로 개발된 관성모멘트 측정시스템의 높은 측정신뢰성을 보여준다.

The aim of this study was to utilize rice bran, the main waste product of paddy processing, in xanthan gum production by Xanthomonas campestris fermentation. Deffated rice bran was enzymatically hydrolyzed using cellulase, gluco-amylase, alpha-amylase and xylanase at various pHs and temperatures within 0-12 h. The highest sugar content reached at $35^{\circ}C$, pH 5.5 in 6 h with 41.66%. The enzymatic hydrolysate was used as the carbon source for xanthan gum production by X. campestris NRRL B-1459 and X. campestris pv. campestris. The highest productivities obtained were 21.87 and 17.10 g/L, respectively. Viscosity measurement for the obtained xanthan gums and commercial gum was carried out in gum solutions at various pHs and temperatures. The highest viscosity was reached with 1% gum solutions at $20^{\circ}C$ and pH 5.5 for all gums with viscosity values of 470, 131 and 138 mPa sec, respectively. This work has provided relevant scientific information about the use of rice bran, an abundant agroindustrial residue, to produce xanthan gum.

Purpose: This study was aimed to investigate the effects of gum-chewing on the recovery of bowel movement and oral cavity discomfort after abdominal surgery. Method: The nonequivalent control group, non-syncronized repeated treatment design was used. A total of 99 patients were participated in the study. The 44 patients were in the experimental group and the rest in the control group. The experimental group chewed gum three times a day until they passed gas. As the patient reported gas-passing, bowel movement time, subjective symptoms of oral cavity, and oral status were recorded precisely. The frequency, percentage, $x^2$-test and t-test were analyzed by SPSS PC 12.0. Results: There were significant differences in bowel movement, gas passing, oral cavity symptoms, and oral status scores between the experimental and the control group. Conclusion: The findings of the study demonstrated the fact that gum-chewing helps early recovery from post-operative ileus and thirst. It is because gum chewing stimulates bowel mobility and secretion of saliva. Thus gum-chewing seems to be an effective nursing intervention in reducing post-operative side effects for patients with abdominal surgery.

Background: Masticating is an activity that is free from temporal or spatial constraints, with an advantage that it can be combined easily with other treatment methods. While several studies have reported a positive effect of the intervention of chewing using the jaw on postural stability, only a few studies were conducted on stroke patients. Objectives: To investigated the effects of masticating chewing gum on the static and dynamic balancing of stroke patients. Design: Randomized cross-over study design. Methods: Nineteen stroke patients were randomly assigned to the chewing group or control group. BT4 was used to measure the static and dynamic balancing abilities. Pre-test measurements were taken before mastication of chewing gum, and post-test measurements were taken after 2 days. The stroke patients in the chewing group were guided to sit on a chair and chew gum for 3 min, and their balancing abilities were simultaneously measured. The balancing abilities of the control group patients were measured while they sat at rest without masticating chewing gum. Results: The chewing group showed significant increases in the measures of static balance (i.e., C90 area, trace length, X mean, and Y mean). In the between-group comparison, the measures of static balance were significantly higher in the chewing group than in the control group. Conclusion: These findings suggest that masticating chewing gum enhanced the static balancing ability of stroke patients. Thus, gum chewing should be considered a viable clinical intervention to control posture in stroke patients.
