The jellyfish Nemopilema nomurai was hydrolyzed with papain and a novel dipeptide purified via ultrafiltration, gel filtration chromatography with Sephadex LH-20, and reverse phase chromatography using $C_{18}$ and $C_{12}$ columns. The IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and MS spectrometer analyses showed that the dipeptide comprised tyrosine-isoleucine (Tyr-Ile). The $IC_{50}$ and $K_i$ values were $6.56{\pm}1.12$ and $3.10{\pm}0.28\;{\mu}M$, respectively, indicating competitive inhibition of angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE). As a novel ACE-inhibitory active peptide, Tyr-Ile may have potential for use in antihypertensive therapy.

The phthalates have been shown to produce hepatic peroxisome proliferation and certain peroxisome proliferators (PPs) are also known to increase the incidence of liver tumors in rodents. In this study we investigated the correlation between oxidative injury, changes in peroxisomal and microsomal enzymes and tumor formation in PP-treated rats.(omitted)

Tramadol is an opioid analgesic agent that has been the subject of a series of case reports suggesting potential for misuse or abuse. However, it is not a controlled substance and is not generally considered addictive in Korea. In this study, we examined the dependence potential and abuse liability of tramadol as well as its effect on the dopaminergic and serotonergic systems in rodents. In animal behavioral tests, tramadol did not show any positive effects on the experimental animals in climbing, jumping, and head twitch tests. However, in the conditioned place preference and self-administration tests, the experimental animals showed significant positive responses. Taken together, tramadol affected the neurological systems related to abuse liability and has the potential to lead psychological dependence.

본 연구에서는 향신료 조제품인 고추다대기의 사용원료 확인을 위한 분자생물학적 기법을 이용한 시험법을 검토하였다. 시료 중 원료성분 확인을 위하여 고추, 마늘, 양파의 종 특이 프라이머를 이용하였으며, 대상 식품원료로는 고추다대기 6건을 선정하였다. 시료로부터 직접 유전자 추출 후 PCR을 실시하였으나 고추 등 사용원료의 확인이 어려웠다. 따라서 염 성분을 제거하기 위하여 증류수를 이용하여 3~4회 세척 후 PCR한 결과 6건 중 5건에서만 고추유전자 확인되었으며, 마늘 및 양파 성분은 모두 확인이 불가능하였다. 따라서 염 성분 제거 후 추출유전자의 증폭을 위하여 Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) 키트를 사용 후 PCR을 실시하였다. 그 결과 모든 시료에서 고추유전자(102 bp)를 확인하였으며, 양파를 함유하는 6건 및 마늘을 함유하는 4건에서 각각 양파(280 bp) 및 마늘(180 bp) 유전자를 확인하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 검토된 고추다대기에 대한 시료 전처리법, 유전자추출법, 추출유전자증폭법 등은 고추다대기를 이용한 불량고춧가루 제조 시 이를 판별할 수 있어 식품안전관리에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In 2015, a candidate for the second national reference standard (NRS) of Gloydius snake venom was produced to replace the first NRS of Gloydius snake venom. In the present study, the potencies of the candidate were determined by a collaborative study, and the qualification of the candidate was estimated. The potencies of the candidate were determined by measuring the murine lethal titers and lapine hemorrhagic titers of venom against the regional working reference standard (RWRS) for antivenom using the methods described in the previous report for the first NRS of Gloydius snake venom. Three Korean facilities contributed data from a total of 30 independent assays. Subsequently, two foreign national control research laboratories contributed to this collaborative study. The results were calculated using the Reed-Muench method for lethality and determined using a mixed-effects model for hemorrhage. The general common potencies of the lethal and hemorrhagic titers were obtained from the results of the 30 tests performed at three Korean facilities. The results are expressed in micrograms for 1 test dose (TD) with a 95% confidence interval as follows: a lethal titer of $90.13{\mu}g/TD$ (95% confidence interval = $87.39{\sim}92.86{\mu}g$) and a hemorrhagic titer of $10.80{\mu}g/TD$ (95% confidence interval = $10.46{\sim}11.14{\mu}g$). In addition, the candidate preparation showed good quality evaluation according to the results of the quality estimation of the candidate and is judged to be suitable to serve as the Korean NRS for snake venom. In conclusion, the second NRS of Gloydius snake venom was established in this study and will be used for national quality control, including a national lot release test of Korean antivenom products.

전분의 사용원료를 확인하는 방법은 전분입자의 크기 또는 형태 등으로 분류하는 이화학적인 방법이 연구되었으나 원료별 또는 동일한 원료라도 품종에 따른 차이점으로 인하여 명확하게 확인하기 어려운 단점이 있어 유전자분석법을 시도하였다. 시료는 고구마 전분, 감자 전분, 옥수수 전분 및 타피오카 전분 등 총 11종을 사용하였으며, 유전자추출은 DNeasy plant mini 키트, magnetic DNA purification system 및 CTAB 방법으로 하였으며 추출유전자의 증폭을 위하여 WGA 키트로 처리하였다. 그리고 고구마, 감자, 옥수수 및 타피오카 검출을 위한 유전자 부위는 SSR (simple sequence repeat, ib-286-F/ib-286-R), 자당합성효소(potato sucrose synthase, Pss 01n-5'/Pss 01n-3'), 전분합성효소(starch synthase, SSllb 3-5'/SSllb 3-3') 및 SSR (SSRY26-F/SSRY26-R)를 각각 사용하였다. 그 결과 대부분의 경우 WGA를 처리한 경우에는 사용원료의 확인이 가능하였다.
