Experiemental parameters are brain ischemia by MCA occlusion assay, KCN-induced brain injury, pulmonary thrombosis and platelet aggregation assay. The results were summarized as follows; 1. KHCTH extracts significantly inhibited the duration of KCN-induced coma (67%) and mortality (80%). 2. KHCTH extracts significantly suppressed brain ischemic area and edema following MCA occlusion and protected neuron cells as compared with control data. 3. KHCTH extracts inhibited pulmonary thrombosis induced by collagen and epinephrine. 4. KHCTH extracts inhibited platelet aggregation induced by collagen, ADP as agonist up to 76.9% and 32.3% respectivey at 1 mg/ml more effective than water extract of KHCT These data suggested that KHCTH could be applied as the protector of brain ischemia and injury and antithrombotic agent.

The antimicrobial activity of mugwort(artemisia asiatica Nakai) was investigated. The methanol extract or dried mugwort was fractionated to hexane, chloroform, ethylacetate, butanol, and aqueous fractions. The hexane fraction among these fractions showed the hifhest inhibitory effect on the growth of microorganisms such as Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Lactobacillus plantarum. Bacillus subtilis, Escherchia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus were completely inhibited at a concentration of 250, 500 , and 750$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml respectively. The hexane fraction was further fractionated into 16 subfractions by silica gel column and thin layer chromatography(TLC). The subfraction No. 8, 9, and 10 on TLC exhibited high antimicrnial activity. At 3rd fractionation, subfraction No. 2 inhibited the growth of microorganisms at 500$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml. Heptadecane, dodecamethyi cyclohexasiloxane, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, dodecamethul pentasiloxane, coumarin, 5,6,6,6a-tetrahydro-4,4,7a-trimethyl-2(4H)-benzofuranone, neophytadiene, tridecanoic acid, methyl ester, 2-methyl-4,5-nonadiene, (Z,Z)-9-12-octadecadienoyl chloride, and bis(2-ethylhexyl) were identified from this antimicrobial fraction by GC-MS.

The effect of pressure and temperature on the stabilities of the charge transfer complexes of hexamethyl benzene with iodine in n-hexane has been investigated by UV-spectrophotometric measurements. In this experiment the absorption spectra of mixed solutions of hexamethyl benzene and iodine in n-hexane were measured at 25, 40 and $60^{\circ}C$ under 1,200, 600, 1200 and 1600 bar. The equilibrium constant of the complex formation was increased with pressure while being decreased with temperature raising. Changes of volume, enthalpy, free energy and entropy for the formation of the complexes were obtained from the equilibrium constants. The red shift at higher pressure, the blue shift at higher temperature and the relation between pressure and oscillator strength were discussed by means of thermodynamic functions. In comparison with the results in the previous studies, it can be seen that the pressure dependence of oscillator strength has a extremum behavior in durene as the variation of ${\Delta}H$ or ${\Delta}S$ with the number of methyl groups of polymethyl benzene near atmospheric pressure in the previous study. The shift or deformation of the potential in the ground state and in the excited state of the complexes formed between polymethyl benzene and iodine was considered from the correlation between the differences of the electron transfer energies and the differences of free energies of the complex formation for the pressure variation.

A simple and rapid method was developed to prepare a large quantity of highly pure conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) chemically-synthesized from safflower seed oil (SSO). CLA-SSO(74.9% in purity) was synthesized from fresh SSO(79.9% of linoleic acid) by alkaline isomerization at 18$0^{\circ}C$. Urea(50g) and CLA-SSO (25g) were completely dissolved in ethanol (750ml) using a water bath(5$0^{\circ}C$) and followed by refluxing for 60 min. The resultant was cooled to room temperature and stored in a cold room (4$^{\circ}C$) for 24hrs. After removing the urea adduct by filtration, the filtrate was rotoevaporated under 4$0^{\circ}C$ and the residue was dissolved in hexane (200ml). The hexane extract was washed with distilled water (100ml$\times$3) and dried over sodium sulfate anhydrous. This urea treatment procedure was repeated three times. The purity of CLA recovered from the hexane extract was 95.0%. This method can be applied to prepare a large quantity of highly pure chemically-synthesized CLA (>0.5kg/a batch) from any plant oils containing high percentages (>70%) of linoleic acid.

■ Objectives The berries of Schisandra chinensis (Schisandra Fructus) are given the name Omiza in Koreane(五味子), and have been used asremedies for many ailments: to resist infections, increase skin health, and combat insomnia, coughing, and thirst. This study was designed to investigate the effects of Schisandra Fructus hexane fraction (SFH) on serum lipid levels in Hyperlipidemic mice. ■ Methods In this experiment, effects on total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, AST, ALT, fasting blood glucose in serum were measured. And in addition, histopathological and gene expression changes in liver tissue was also observed. ■ Results SFH did not affects weight gain, serum AST and ALT in hyperlipidemic mice. Oral administration of SFH lowered levels of total cholesterol and triglyceride, which were elevated by induction of hyperlipidemia. Finally, administration of SFH lowered fasting blood glucose significantly. And SFH also ameliorates anti-oxidative stress systems in internal organs which play key role in disease prevention. ■ Conclusion Results in our study suggest that SFH can prevent obese through regulation of dyslipidemia and hyperglycaemia.

흑마늘의 기능성을 분석하기 위하여 용매별 계통 분획물을 만들어 100, 250, 500 및 $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 항산화 활성을 측정하였다. 총 페놀 및 플라보노이드 화합물의 함량은 chloroform, ethyl acetate 및 hexane 분획물에서 유의적으로 높아 butanol, methanol 및 물 분획물에 비하여 5.5~11.6배 더 많았다. 흑마늘 계통 분획물의 항산화 활성은 시료의 첨가농도가 증가함에 따라 그 활성도 증가하였으며, chloroform과 ethyl acetate 분획물의 활성이 유의적으로 높았다. DPPH 라디칼 소거능은 $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서는 butanol과 물 분획물을 제외한 모든 시료 모두에서 50% 이상의 활성을 나타내었다. ABTS 라디칼 소거능의 경우 hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate 분획물에서 비교적 활성이 높아, $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서는 70% 이상의 소거능을 보였다. $1,000\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서 hydroxyl radical 소거능은 50.27~81.02%의 범위로 높은 반면 SOD 유사활성은 26.73~47.64%로 비교적 그 활성이 낮았다. Linoleic acid 반응계에서 항산화 활성을 측정한 결과 저장기간이 길수록, 시료의 첨가 농도가 높을수록 항산화 활성이 더 높았으며, 또 극성 용매보다는 비극성용매 분획물의 활성이 유의적으로 높았다. 아질산염 소거능의 경우 butanol 분획물을 제외한 모든 시료에서 비교적 그 활성이 높아 $100\;{\mu}g/mL$ 농도에서도 50% 이상의 소거능을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 고단백질 식품소재로서 밀웜의 활용성을 높이기 위해 탈지 분말 및 분리단백 제조 시, 기존의 압착이나 용매 탈지의 대안으로 초임계이산화탄소(_SCO2) 탈지의 활용 가능성을 조사하였다. 이를 위해 41.37 MPa, 40℃의 _SCO2로 유지를 추출하여 탈지 분말을 제조하고 이로부터 알칼리 추출 및 등전점 침전을 이용해 분리단백을 제조한 후 단백질 함량 변화 및 수율, 색도, 단백질 용해도, 거품 형성력과 안정성, 유화력과 안정성 등의 품질지표를 측정하고 이를 압착과 헥산탈지로 얻은 탈지 분말 및 분리단백과 비교하였다. _SCO2로 밀웜을 탈지하면 단백질 함량(71.66%)이 헥산탈지 분말과 유사한 수준의 탈지 분말을 얻을 수 있었고, 분리단백 추출률도 헥산탈지(37.10%)나 압착탈지(22.39%) 분말보다 높았다. 또한 분리단백의 단백질 수득률도 압착탈지 분리단백보다 높고 헥산탈지 분리단백과 유사하였다. _SCO2탈지 분말과 분리단백은 압착탈지 시료보다 밝은 색상을 보이며 헥산탈지 시료에 가까운 값 L^⁎, a^⁎, b^⁎값을 보였다. 탈지방법에 상관없이 pH에 따른 탈지 분말 및 분리단백의 단백질 용해도는 pH 5에서 최소였으며 산과 염기로 갈수록 증가하였고 분리단백이 더 높은 용해도를 보였다. 수분 흡착력은 분리단백에서 증가하였으며 _SCO2탈지 분리단백에서 가장 높았다. _SCO2탈지 분말의 유지 흡착력은 압착탈지 분말보다 높고 헥산탈지 분말과 유사하였다. 거품 형성력은 분리단백에서 더 높았으며 _SCO2탈지는 헥산탈지와 유사하였다. 유화력은 다른 탈지 분말 및 분리단백에 비해 _SCO2탈지 분말과 분리단백이 약 1.6배 정도 높았다. 이상의 결과로부터 밀웜의 탈지 분말이나 분리단백 제조 시, 단백질 함량, 수율 및 여러 품질 특성에서 _SCO2탈지가 압착탈지보다 전반적으로 우수하였으며 헥산탈지와는 유사하거나 일부 특성에서는 더 우수한 것으로 나타났다.
