식물세포의 느린 생장과 낮은 생산량의 이유로 지금까지 는 주로 미생물이나 동물세포에서 유전자 재조합 단백질을 생산하여 왔다. 그러나 저렴한 배지 가격, 동물 유래 바이러스 감염 위험성으로부터의 안정성, glycosylation 등의 post-translational modification이 가능하다는 장점들로 인하여 최근 들어 식물세포배양은 생물학적 활성을 가진 고부가가치의 단백질을 생산하는데 많이 이용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 생장배지에 첨가했던 sucrose의 소비와 induction 배지로의 교환에서 오는 배지내의 삼투압을 조절하여 hCTLA4-Ig의 생산성을 높이고자 하였다. 다양한 삼투압 조절제 첨가 실험을 통해 sorbitol을 선별하고, 40 mM의 sorbitol 첨가에서 상대적으로 높은 생존도와 induction 후 7일째 대조구보다 1.7배 높은 생산성을 확인하였다. 또한, 저농도의 glucose 첨가를 통한 생산성 증대에 있어서는 8 mM glucose에서 induction 이후에도 높은 세포농도를 유지하면서 최대 37.3 mg/L까지 hCTLA4-Ig 생산량을 증가시켰다. 5-L bioreactor에서 회분식 배양과 induction시의 hCTLA4-Ig 생산량을 비교한 결과 induction시 배양 18일째 최고 45.3 mg/L까지 높일 수 있었으며, 회분식 배양에 비해 2.1배 증가됨을 확인하였다.

Fusarium oxysporum을 재료로 하여 polygalacturonase 활성능이 좋은 우량 균주를 개발하기 위하여 돌연변이주와 원형질체융합주를 선별하였다. MNNG를 처리하여 6개의 영양요구성 돌연변이주를 유도하였다. 세포벽 분해효소로는 driselase를 이용하고 삼투안정제로 0.6M KCI을 처리하여 돌연변이체로부터 원형질체를 얻었다. polyethyleneglycol 8,000과 $CaCl_2$를 이용하여 영양요구성 돌연변이체의 원형질체 사이에 융합을 시도하여 1개의 융합주를 얻었으며 융합률은 $5.0{\times}10^{-3}$이었다. polygalacturonase 활성도를 수정된 DNS법을 이용하여 측정하였다. 결과적으로, 선별된 융합주와 돌연변이주의 polygalacturonase 활성은 모균주와 비교하여 약 1.5배에서 3.5배가량 증가하였으며 그 중에서도 mutant Fx-2가 가장 높은 활성도를 나타냈다. 그러므로 이 방법은 우량균주개발을 위한 유용한 방법으로 판단되었다.

SWRO-PRO hybrid desalination technology is recently getting more attention especially in large desalination markets such as USA, Middle East, Japan, Singapore, etc. because of its promising potential to recover a considerable amount of osmotic energy from brine (a high-concentration solution of salt, 60,000 - 80,000 mg/L) and also to minimize the impact of the discharged brine into a marine ecosystem. By the research and development of the core technologies of the SWRO-PRO desalination system in a national desalination research project (Global MVP) supported by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport (MOLIT) and Korea Agency for Infrastructure Technology Advancement (KAIA), it is anticipated that around 25% of total energy consumption rate (generally 3 to $4kWh/m^3$) of the SWRO desalination can be reduced by recovering the brine's osmotic energy utilizing wastewater treatment effluent as a PRO feed solution and an isobaric pressure exchanger (PX, ERI) as a PRO energy converter. However, there are still several challenges needed to be overcome in order to ultimately commercialize the novel SWRO-PRO process. They include system optimization and integration, development of efficient PRO membrane and module, development of PRO membrane fouling control technology, development of design and operation technology for the system scaling-up, development of diverse business models, and so on. In this paper, the current status and progress of the pilot study of the newly developed SWRO-PRO hybrid desalination technology is discussed.

건조채소류의 제조시 품질손상을 줄이고자 삼투건조와 steam 및 boiling water, microwave를 이용하여 전처리를 행한 후 열풍건조하여 적절한 전처리 방법을 알아보고자 건조와 재수화 공정을 행하여 각 공정의 물리적인 특성을 조사하였으며, 기존의 건조 모델을 적용하여 수분이동 메카니즘을 설명하고, 건조당근의 관능적 특성을 조사하였다. 전처리는 처리시간이 길수록 수분과 carotene 함량이 낮아졌으나 물리적인 특성을 고려하여 최적 처리 시간을 STEAM과 WATER 는 각 10분, MICRO는 1분으로 결정하였다. 최적 조건에서 전처리를 행한 후 $69^{\circ}C$, 상대습도 33%의 열풍건조 조건에서 건조를 행한 후 열탕에서 10분간 재수화 하여 carotene 및 수분함량, 색도와 복원율 등을 알아본 결과, 건조 효율은 타처리구가 삼투처리보다 우수하였으나 carotene 함량은 삼투건조가 높은 값을 보였고 그 효과는 재수화 후에도 지속하였다. 전처리를 각기 달리한 당근의 품질에 대하여 관능검사를 실시한 결과, 외관과 색도 그리고 종합적인 기호면에서 건조 후의 품질은 삼투처리한 열풍건조의 경우가 전처리 하지 않은 동결건조 처리구 보다 건조 및 재수화 후 높은 점수를 나타내었다. 건조공정을 기존의 건조모델로 표현하고자 적합성 여부를 조사해 본 결과 전처리방법에 관계없이 quadratic 모델이 가장 높은 적합도를 보여 수분의 이동을 시간의 함수로 나타낼 수 있었다. 재수화 공정에의 적용성은 기존의 건조 및 흡습모델로 표현하기는 미흡한 것으로 나타났다.

To evaluate whether metformin restores leptin sensitivity in aged rats with leptin resistance, we measured leptin sensitivity in aged (2 year old) and adult (5 month old) rats after 4 weeks of treatment with metformin (300 mg/kg/D, mixing in drinking water), by measuring food intake, body weight and visceral fat losing effects. Leptin ($15{\mu}g/D$) was administered by intracerobroventricular (i.c.v.) infusion through osmotic minipump for 1 week. Metformin treatment decreased body weight and daily food intake in both adult and aged rats compared with their control rats, however, these effects were more prominent in aged rats than in adult rats. Anorexic and fat losing responses following i.c.v. leptin were attenuated in aged rats compared to adult rats. However, these responses of aged rats to leptin were restored by metformin treatment. Moreover, serum concentration of leptin in aged rats was significantly decreased by combined treatment with metformin and leptin. These results suggest that metformin enhances leptin sensitivity in aged rat model, and that combination therapy with metformin and leptin would be helpful for treatment of aging-associated obesity.

The potential for traumatic brain injury resulting from falling coconuts is frequently overlooked. These incidents can cause focal lesions in the form of brain hemorrhage. Corpus callosum hemorrhage due to blunt trauma from a falling object is rare and typically associated with poor prognosis. The purpose of this report is to detail a case of corpus callosum hemorrhage caused by a coconut fall and to discuss the conservative management approach employed. We report the case of a 54-year-old woman who was admitted to the hospital with symptoms of unconsciousness, headache, and expressive aphasia after being struck by a falling coconut. Notably, hemorrhage was detected within the body of the corpus callosum, as revealed by imaging findings. The patient received intensive monitoring and treatment in the intensive care unit, including oxygen therapy, saline infusion, an osmotic diuretic, analgesics, and medication to prevent stress ulcers. The patient demonstrated marked clinical improvement while undergoing conservative treatment. Despite the typically unfavorable prognosis of these rare injuries, our patient exhibited meaningful clinical improvement with conservative treatment. Timely diagnosis and appropriate interventions were crucial in managing the patient's condition. This report emphasizes the importance of considering traumatic brain injury caused by falling coconuts and highlights the need for further research and awareness in this area.

In order to develop the protoplast fusion method of the strains of Fusarium, the interspecific protoplast fusion was attempted between Fusarium poae and F. sporotrichioides. Various auxotrophic mutants were isolated by the treatment of N-Methyl-N'-Nitro-N-Nitrosoguanidine. The optimal conditions for the formation and regeneration of protoplasts were examined and the characteristics of a fusant were studied. As a results, protoplasts were readily obtained from 18 hours cultured mycelia by the treatment of driselase for 3 hours and 0.6 M KCl as a best osmotic stabilizer at pH 6.0 for the formation of protoplast. Sucrose was the most suitable for the regeneration. Polyetylene glycol (M.W. 8,000) in $CaCl_{2}$-glycine solution was used to induce the protoplast fusion. The interspecific fusion frequency between protoplasts among the auxotrophic mutants of the two strains ranged from $2.7*10^{-2}$ to $5.7*10^{-3}$ . DNA content and cellulase activity were rather increased in the interspecific fusant. The lag phase of growth curve was slightly elongated in the fusant.

Several factors predicted to affect the protoplast formation and regeneration were investigated. The optimum lysozyme, casamino acid and PVP concentration were 0.5 (mg/$m\ell$), 0.1 (%) and 1.5(%). In B. pumilus, Penicillin-G treatment concentration was 0.3 (U/$m\ell$) and optimum treatment period was transit log. phase. And in the case of Celm. fimi, 0.3 (U/$m\ell$) and initial log. phase. Osmotic stabilizer and di-cation for OSM medium of B.pumilus and Gelm .fimi were 25mM CaCl2, 0.5M sodium sucinate and 50mM MgCl$_2$, 100mM CaCl$_2$, 0.4M sodium succinate. The regeneration frequency of B.pumilus and Celm. fimi were 14.6(%) and 6.9(%).

Two lactic strains, Leuconostoc mesenteroides Lu5 and Pediococcus pentosaceus P1 isolated from Kimchi, were used to determine the optimum conditions for protoplast formation and regeneration. The maximum protoplast formation rate was obtained with both strains at early exponential growth phase and decreased rapidly during growth phase. For P. pentosaceus P1, 30 $\mu$g/ml of lysozyme treatment was sufficient to obtain over 90% of protoplast formation and 300 $\mu$g/ml for L. mesenteroides Lu5, showing great difference in sensitivity of these strains to lysozyme. For both strains, best results were obtained at pH 7, using 0.5 M sucrose as osmotic stabilizer. For regeneration of protoplast, the highest regeneration rate was obtained after 15 minutes of lysozyme treatment and declined drastically with prolonged digestion.
