  • The purpose of this work was to investigate the synergically bactericidal effects and cellular responses of green tea polyphenols (TPPs) and nalidixic acid (NA) on nalidixic acid-resistant (NAR) Salmonella typhimurium. The bactericidal activities of $>3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPPs and $<256{\mu}g/ml$ NA were investigated for S. typhimurium of which initial cell number was approximately adjusted to 107 cell/ml. Complete elimination of NAS-S. typhimurium was achieved within 6 hr of incubation at the concentrations of $3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPP or $256{\mu}g/ml$ NA, whereas only partial bactericidal effect was achieved under the same conditions. However, the combinations of $3,000{\mu}g/ml$ TPPs and $32{\mu}g/ml$ NA against NAS-S. typhimurium and $3,500{\mu}g/ml$ TPPs and $64{\mu}g/ml$ nalidixic acid against NAR-S. typhimurium showed complete removal within 5 hr of incubation. The stress shock proteins (SSPs) were induced at different concentrations of TPP o rNA used as stressors against cell culture of S. typhimurium. The proteins were identified as 70-kDa DnaK and 60-kDa GroEL by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. SSPs induced by the stressors were found to increase in proportion to the TPPs or NA. Scanning electron microscopy analyses revealed the presence of perforations and irregular rod shape with wrinkled surfaces for cells treated with TPPs or NA.

  • The difrrrenlial display reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (DDRT-PCR) aniilysis roils performed to identify the pathogellir strain specific amplicons. mRNAs were purified from the trophozoites of the pathogenif strain YS-27 and the non-pathogenic strain S 16. respectively. Three kinds of rirsl stranded rDNAs were reverse transcribed from the mRNAs by one base anchored oligo-dT 11M (M: A. C, or G) primers. Each cDNA lemplatr was used for DDRT-PCK analysis. A total of 144 pathogenic strain specific amplicons was observed in DDRT-PCR analysis using primer combinations of the 11 arbitrary primers and the 3 one base anchored oli해-dT11M primers. Of these 31 amplit'tons were verified as the amplirons amplified only from the mRNAs of the pathogenic strain by DNA slots biol llybridizatioil. Furthel cklaracleization of the 31 pathogenic strain sprcifil amplicons by DNA slot blot hybridlnation analysis using biotin labeled Probes or the PCR amplified DNA of rysteine proteinase genes revealed that 21 of them were amplliried from the maNAs of the cysteine proteinase genes. Four randomly selected amplirons out of the rest 10 amplirons were used fur screening of cDNA library followed by immunoscreening and all of them were turned outs to be amplified from the mRNA.

  • Two species of halophilic bacteria were isolated from five salted seafoods and identified by 16S rDNA sequenc­ing homology. One was identified as Halomonas subglaciescola and other four strains were belong to Halomo­nas marina. The identity of all isolates with standard organisms was above $95\%.$ H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, and H. marina SH-2 grew in salinity condition from $3%\;to\;18\%$ NaCl but growth of H. marina SQ and H. marina SH-l grew in salinity environment from $8\%\;to\;17\%.$ Maximum biomass of H. subglaciescola, H. marina IN, H. marina SQ, H. marina SH-1, and H. marina SH-2 growing in LB medium containing $15\%$ NaCl were about 3.2, 4.5, 4.5, 5.7, and 4.2, however the maximum biomass in LB medium containing $5\%$ NaCl were about 2.2, 1.1, 0.7, 0.2, and 2.4 as optical density at 660 nm, respectively. In scanning electron micrograph, unknown material (mucus) attached to outer membrane of all isolates was observed. When mucus isolated from halophilic bacterial cell was added to culture of E. coli, E. coli grew in medium containing $15\%$ NaCl.

  • Glycerol is a non-volatile compound with no aromatic properties that contributes significantly to the quality of wine by providing sweetness and richness of taste. In addition, it is also the third most significant byproduct of alcoholic fermentation in terms of quantity after ethanol and carbon dioxide. In this study, Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy was employed as a fast non-destructive method in conjugation with multivariate regression analysis to build a model for the quantitative analysis of glycerol concentration in wine samples. The samples were prepared by using three varieties of red wine samples (i.e., Shiraz, Merlot, and Barbaresco) that were adulterated with glycerol in concentration ranges from 0.1 to 15% (v·v-1), and subjected to analysis together with pure wine samples. A net analyte signal (NAS)-based methodology, called hybrid linear analysis in the literature (HLA/GO), was applied for predicting glycerol concentrations in the collected FT-IR spectral data. Calibration and validation sets were designed to evaluate the performance of the multivariate method. The obtained results exhibited a high coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.987 and a low root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.563% for the calibration set, and a R2 of 0.984 and a RMSE of 0.626% for the validation set. Further, the model was validated in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and limits of detection and quantification, and the results confirmed that this model can be used in most applications, as well as for quality assurance.

  • Increasing crop production with the same amount of resources is essential for enhancing the economy in agriculture. The first prerequisite is to understand relationships between the resources. The concept of WEF (Water-Energy-Food) nexus analysis was first introduced in 2011, which helps to interpret inter-linkages among the resources and stakeholders. The objective of this study was to analyze energy-water nexus in greenhouse cultivation by estimating reference evapotranspiration and heating load. For the estimation, this study used the physical model to simulate the inside temperature of the agricultural greenhouse using heating, solar radiation, ventilated and transferred heat losses as input variables. For estimating reference evapotranspiration and heating load, Penman-Monteith equation and seasonal heating load equation with HDH (Heating Degree-Hour) was applied. For calibration and validation of simulated inside temperature, used were hourly data observed from 2011 to 2012 in multi-span greenhouse. Results of the simulation were evaluated using $R^2$, MAE and RMSE, which showed 0.75, 2.22, 3.08 for calibration and 0.71, 2.39, 3.35 for validation respectively. When minimum setting temperature was $12^{\circ}C$ from 2013 to 2017, mean values of evapotranspiration and heating load were 687 mm/year and 2,147 GJ/year. For $18^{\circ}C$, Mean values of evapotranspiration and heating load were 707 mm/year and 5,616 GJ/year. From the estimation, the relationship between water and heat energy was estimated as 1.0~2.6 GJ/ton. Though additional calibrations with different types of greenhouses are necessary, the results of this study imply that they are applicable when evaluating resource relationship in the greenhouse cultivation complex.

  • Today, the weather is changing continually, due to the progress of global warming. As the weather changes, the habitats of different organisms will change as well. It cannot be predicted whether or not the weather will change with each passing day. In particular, the biological distribution of the areas climate change affects constitutes a major factor in determining the natural state of indigenous plants; additionally, plants are constantly exposed to rhizospheric microorganisms, which are bound to be sensitive to these changes. Interest has grown in the relationship between plants and rhizopheric microorganisms. As a result of this interest we elected to research and experiment further. We researched the dominant changes that occur between plants and rhizospheric organisms due to global warming. First, we used temperature as a variable. We employed four different temperatures and four different sites: room temperature ($27^{\circ}C$), $+2^{\circ}C$, $+4^{\circ}C$, and $+6^{\circ}C$. The four different sites we used were populated by the following species: Pinus deniflora, Pinus koraiensis, Quercus acutissima, and Alnus japonica. We counted colonies of these plants and divided them. Then, using 16S rRNA analysis we identified the microorganisms. In conclusion, we identified the following genera, which were as follows: 10 species of Bacillus, 2 Enterobacter species, 4 Pseudomonas species, 1 Arthrobacter species, 1 Chryseobacterium species, and 1 Rhodococcus species. Among these genera, the dominant species in Pinus deniflora was discovered in the same genus, but a different species dominated at $33^{\circ}C$. Additionally, that of Pinus koraiensis changed in both genus and species which changed into the Chryseobacrterium genus from the Bacilus genus at $33^{\circ}C$.
