This study evaluated the effect of the music type (analog and digital) on the grip strength. Five male and five female healthy college students participated in the experiment. The independent variables were music type (analog, digital, no music) and listening time (5 min., 10 min., and 15 min.). The classic LP disc was used as the analog music and the LP was converted to mp3 to make the digital music source. Grip forces were measured every 5 minutes until 15 minutes using Jamar strain guqge. Mean forces and peak forces were used as dependent variables. The analysis of variance showed that there was no difference between analog and digital music (p>0.05). Only, the gender effect was statistically significant (p<0.05). These results should be verified using different types of music (not only classical music) or preferred music, during different listening time duration (>15 minutes).

Histamine을 생성하는 Morganella morganii와 Photobacterium phosphoreum으로부터 crude histidine decarboxylase(HDC)를 추출하여 65~121°C로 열처리한 다음 균의 생육 및 효소 활성 변화에 대해 살펴보았다. 그 결과 M. morganii와 P. phosphoreum은 모든 열처리 조건에서 비 가열 처리구와 비교 시 균의 생육이 저해됨을 확인하였다. M. morganii와 P. phosphoreum 유래 HDC의 효소 활성은 65°C에서 90% 이상의 효소 활성이 저해됨을 확인하였고, 온도가 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 활성이 억제되는 것으로 나타났다. SDS-PAGE 결과에서는 65~100°C 범위에서 비가열 처리구와 비교 시 조효소액의 단백질 패턴의 변화가 크지 않았으나, 121°C에서 단백질 band의 강도가 크게 약해졌다. Native-PAGE에서는 65°C 처리 조건에서부터 단백질 패턴의 변화가 크게 나타났다. 따라서 가열처리(65~121°C)는 histamine 생성균인 M. morganii와 P. phosphoreum의 생육을 억제할 뿐만 아니라 HDC의 효소 활성도가 저해됨을 확인하여, 식품산업에서 적용되고 있는 열처리 조건에서 histamine 생성 억제에 큰 효과가 있는 것으로 생각한다. This study was performed to investigate the effects of various thermal treatments on the growth of Morganella morganii and Photobacterium phosphoreum and activity of crude histidine decarboxylase (HDC) obtained from M. morganii and P. phosphoreum. Crude HDC and the two strains were treated at 65°C/30 min, 80°C/10 min, 100°C/10 min, and 121°C/10 min. Activity of crude HDC decreased with increasing temperature. Viable cells counts of M. morganii and P. phosphoreum were not detected in any heated samples. SDS-PAGE patterns of heated HDC did not show significant differences up to 100°C. However, at 121°C, protein band intensity was weakened. In native-PAGE, there was a major change in the pattern of HDC at 65°C. These results suggest that thermal treatment can help to reduce histamine production by reducing HDC activity and growth of M. morganii and P. phosphoreum.

Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs), which contain immature oocytes, are matured in vitro for in vitro embryo production. Oocyte and cumulus cells are then separated using hyaluronidase. To date, there have only been a few reported cases of the toxic effects of hyaluronidase on porcine oocytes. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of bovine testis-derived hyaluronidase and recombinant human hyaluronidase on oocyte denudation and quality. Porcine COCs were matured for 44 h and denuded using different hyaluronidase concentrations and exposure times. Then, oocytes were activated by electrical parthenogenesis. In experiment 1, COCs were denuded using bovine-derived, ovine-derived (Hirax), and human recombinant (ALT-BC4) hyaluronidases for 10 and 20 min. In experiment 2, bovine-derived and human recombinant (ALT-BC4 and ICSI Cumulase^®) hyaluronidases were used to denude the COCs for 2 and 20 min. In both experiments the oocytes were all completely denuded, and there was no degeneration. Rate of embryo development was significantly increased in group treated ALT-BC4 for 2 min and not significantly different in other treatment groups. In general it slightly decreased with longer exposure times. These results have confirmed that different sources of hyaluronidase do not have detrimental effects on the quality of porcine oocytes and suggest that the human recombinant hyaluronidase ALT-BC4 is suitable for oocyte denudation with an increased blastocyst rate.

The present study was aimed to isolate the bacteria producing chitinolytic enzymes including chitin deacetylase (CDA) from soil origin. About 24 bacteria were screened for their chitinolytic enzymes producing ability on the basis of colloidal chitin. Amongst one of the most potent isolates designated to JI-02 was further selected as the most prominent chitinolytic and CDAlike enzyme (CDA-X) producer based on the ability of deacetylation of an artificial substrate pNP-acetamilide. The maximum production of CDA-X in crude enzyme from JI-02 was observed in the presence of 1% colloidal chitin at 37°C and pH 6.4 after 120 h of incubation. Potent enzyme activity of CDA-X was determined toward pNP-acetamilide, demonstrating that optimal pH, temperature and ionic strength of the CDA-X were assessed to be 7.0, 52°C and 125 mM, respectively. Unexpectedly, Nacetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) was not fully converted by the action of CDA-X to glucosamine (GlcN) under the established conditions. Further study on enzyme activity toward chitin-oligosaccharides consisting of multi-N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc)n, n=2-5 may be necessary to elucidate the mode of action which requires the minimum size of (GlcNAc)n. However, our data suggest that CDA-X can convert chitin to chitosan with the maximum yield of approximately 0.08g/L during the fermentation of the strain in the presence of chitin. Furthermore, we found that crude enzyme showed the significant chitosanolytic activity. Taken together, our data suggest that the strain JI-02 may be a potential candidate as a particular strain for better understating of chitin catabolic pathway.

Hye-Ji Kang,Seon-Woo Kim,Ha-Un Yoo,Na-Yeon Kim,So-Yoon Yee,Min-Jung Ko,Myong-Soo Chung 한국산업식품공학회 2017 학술대회 및 심포지엄 Vol.2017 No.11

Subcritical water extraction (SWE) is an eco-friendly new extraction technology because it does not contain harmful organic solvent and has high extraction efficiency in a short time compared with conventional extraction methods. Blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum) are widely known as superfood due to rich source of anthocyanin (malvidin-3-o-galgctoside) and antioxidant activity. In this study, optimal extraction condition of SWE from blueberries was determined and compared with the conventional extraction methods. SWE was carried out using a Dionex Accelerated Solvent Extractor (ASE, Model 350) under conditions of temperatures (110, 130, 150 and 170°C) and times (1, 3, 5 and 10 min). Total anthocyanin of SWE extracts was compared with hot water (60°C, 1 h) extract and pressed juice extract. The total anthocyanin content was determined by pH differential method. Considering both the extraction time and temperature conditions, the highest content of total anthocyanin content was 0.455 mg/g FW Vaccinium corymbosum at 130°C for 3 min. At high temperature and long extraction time, the anthocyanin in the blueberries will undergo thermal degradation due to low stability of anthocyanin at extreme condition. Besides, maximum yield of anthocyanin from blueberries using SWE was about 1.2 and 3.8 times more higher than hot water extract and pressed juice extract, respectively. Therefore, SWE is faster and more efficient method to extract anthocyanin from blueberries than conventional extraction methods. This study shows a possibility of SWE applied to food processing industry.

Background: This study was designed to determine the efficacy of a combined use of esmolol and nicardipine for blunting hypertension and tachycardia after tracheal intubation in hypertensive patients. Methods: Forty-five hypertensive patients were randomly divided into three group: group E (esmolol 0.5 mg/kg, n = 15), group N (nicardipine 30㎍/kg, n = 15), group EN (esmolol 0.25 mg/kg, nicardipine 15㎍/kg, n = 15). All patients received midazolam 0.5 mg/kg, and glycopyrrolate 0.2 mg IM for premedication. Fentanyl 1㎍/kg was injected before induction of anesthesia, and then esmolol, nicardipine, or the mixed drugs were administrated as an IV bolus and immediately followed by the induction drugs: thiopental 5 mg/kg, and succinylcholine 1 mg/kg. Endotracheal intubation was performed 90 seconds after injection of the experimental drugs. Thereafter 50% Nitrous Oxide in oxygen and 2 vol % enflurane were inhaled. BP and HR were recorded at the resting state, before fentanyl injection (base {T0}), after injection test drug (T1), after induction (T2), immediately after intubation (T3), 2 min (T4), 3 min (T5), 4 min (T6), and 5 min (T7) after intubation. Results: There was a significant attenuation in SBP, MBP, DBP after tracheal intubation on the nicardipine & mixed groups compared to the esmolol group. HR was significantly lower in the esmolol and mixed groups than in the nicardipine group after tracheal intubation. Conclusions: Combined administration of esmolol (0.25 mg/kg) and nicardipine (15㎍/kg) was effective in attenuating an increase of BP and HR during tracheal intubation in hypertensive patients.

본 연구에서는 한국 및 중국산 감초(Glycyrrhiza uralensis), 그리고 우즈베키스탄산 감초(Glycyrrhiza glabra)를 대상으로 추출용매, 추출온도, 추출시간 등 추출조건별 추출물을 제조하고 이들 추출물들의 추출 수율과 항산화 활성을 비교하여 최적의 추출조건을 선정하였다. 항산화 활성 중 자유 라디칼(1,1-phenyl-2-pic-rylhydrazyl, DPPH) 소거활성은 85% 에탄올로 60 ℃에서 6 h 동안 추출한 조건에서 한국 감초로부터 얻은 추출물이 가장 높은 활성(46.05%)을 나타내었다. 루미놀 발광법을 이용한 추출물들의 총 항산화능 측정 실험과 피부 광노화에 중요한 ¹O₂으로 유도된 세포막 손상에 대한 추출물들의 세포 보호 효과를 측정한 실험 모두에서도 위의 조건에서 가장 높은 항산화 활성을 나타내었다. 특히, 한국 감초는 τ₅₀이 116.4 min으로 비교 물질인(+)-α-tocopherol (28.5 min)보다 약 4 배나 높은 세포 보호 효과를 나타내었으며, 추출 수율은 18.75%로 우즈베키스탄 및 중국 감초보다 각각 1.2 배 및 2.5 배의 추출 수율을 나타내었다. 따라서, 본 연구 결과는 항산화 소재로 화장품에 응용하기 위하여 감초로부터 추출물을 얻기 위한 최적의 조건은 85% 에탄올로 60 ℃에서 6시간 동안 추출하는 것임을 보여주었다. In this work, licorice extracts were prepared using various extraction conditions such as extraction solvent, temperature, and time from Glycyrrhiza uralensis (G. uralensis) produced in Korea and China and Glycyrrhiza glabra (G. glabra) in Uzbekistan. The optimum extraction condition was selected from the extraction yields and antioxidative activities of extracts. Korea licorice extracts showed the highest free radical (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl, DPPH) scav-enging activity (46.05%) under the extraction condition of 85% ethanol at 60 ℃ for 6 hours. The prominent ROS (reactive oxygen species) scavenging activity using luminol-dependent chemiluminescence assay and the cellular protective effect against ¹O₂ induced cellular membrane damage were also shown from the extracts obtained from the same condition. Especially, Korea G. uralensis extracts exhibited the higher prominent protective effect (τ₅₀ = 116.4 min) than (+)-α-tocopherol (τ₅₀ = 28.5 min) and the extraction yield of Korea licorice extract was 18.75%, which is 1.2 times and 2.5 times higher than that of Uzbekistan and China, respectively. These results indicate that the extraction condition of 85% ethanol at 60 ℃ for 6 hours is optimal to prepare licorice extracts, which can be applicable as antioxidative cosmetic materials.

Background: As nonsurgical interventions for vitiligo are not always successful, various surgical modalities have been used in patients with refractory vitiligo. Of these, non-cultured epidermal suspension transplantation (NCES) was recently introduced to treat large recipient sites using cells from small donor tissue. Objective: We assessed the effectiveness and safety of NCES as a surgical treatment for patients with refractory vitiligo. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 20 cases in 17 patients (11 females; median age 25 years) who underwent NCES from July 2015 through March 2018. Suction blisters (20 mm in diameter) were collected from the patient’s inner thigh at a donor-to-recipient area ratio of 1:5. After the addition of 5 mL recombinant trypsin solution to the suction blisters, followed by incubation at 37°C for 60 min, epidermal cells were manually scraped off the blister surface, and epidermal cell suspension was obtained by centrifugation at 1,500 RPM for 5 min. The suspension was applied to the vitiligo regions after epidermal ablation of those regions. Phototherapy resumed 1 month later. Treatment success was defined as ≥75% repigmentation of the surgical site, and all adverse events were noted. Results: Overall, 85.0% of cases (17/20) exhibited treatment success. Adverse events included hyperpigmentation (20%) and surgical site infection (5%), but the treatment was tolerable in all cases. Conclusion: NCES is a reliable surgical option for patients with vitiligo refractory to nonsurgical treatment. Large areas of vitiligo can be treated by NCES, and use of this technique should be encouraged in Korea. (Korean J Dermatol 2018;56(7):426∼432)

Gastric metastasis from breast cancer is rare and only six cases have been reported in Korea. Colon metastasis is more rare than gastric metastasis. We report a 63-year-old woman with gastric and colon metastases of invasive lobular carcinoma of breast. She was diagnosed as right breast cancer, received right modified radical mastectomy 10 years ago and has been treated with chemotherapy and hormone therapy. Investigating for melena and a small caliber of stool, we found gastric and colon metastases. The diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer was made through gross pathologic and immunohistochemistry staining. We report a case with gastric and colon metastases from breast cancer and a review of the associated six case reports in Korea.

Improving the subcritical water extraction of flavonoids narirutin and hesperidin from Citrus unshiu peel by pulsed electric fields

Hui-Ju Kim,Mi-Ri Kwon,Hye-Ji Kang,Na-Yeon Kim,Hee-Jeong Hwang,Min-Jung Ko,Myong-Soo Chung 한국산업식품공학회 2017 학술대회 및 심포지엄 Vol.2017 No.11

Citrus fruit is important source of flavonoids, mainly flavanones which are narirutin and hesperidin. Those citrus flavonoids have been found to have health-related properties including antioxidant, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory. The main purpose of this study was to verify that the extraction of narirutin and hesperidin from Citrus peel can be more effective by combining pulsed electric field (PEF) pre-treatment and subcritical water extraction (SWE). Citrus unshiu peels were treated with PEF under conditions of electric field strength (3 kV/cm) and times (1 and 2 min). Subsequent SWE was conducted by using a Dionex Accelerated Solvent Extractor (ASE, Model 350) at extraction temperature 170°C for 10 min. The total flavonoids content was measured by using the aluminum chloride colorimetric method and the antioxidant capacity was analyzed by the Ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assay using spectrophotometer. The concentrations of narirutin and hesperidin were increased as PEF pre-treatment time increased. The highest concentrations of narirutin and hesperidin were 13.41 mg narirutin/g dry citrus peel and 141.16 mg hesperidin/g dry citrus peel at PEF pre-treatment condition of 3 kV/cm and 2 min. The total flavonoids contents of the extracts increased 105.2% and 123.1% for citrus peel PEF treated at 1 and 2 min, respectively. In addition, compared to the untreated sample, PEF pre-treatments of 1 and 2 min increased the antioxidant capacity of the extracts 109.2% and 160.8%, respectively. Therefore, the results demonstrate the potential of PEF pre-treatment to improve the SWE of flavonoids from citrus unshiu peel.
