Free amino acids and volatile compounds of fresh garlic and its liqueur were investigated to search elution profile of those components as basic data for development of garlic liqueur. The garlic was soaked in 20% alcohol solution and then sampled every week for 5 weeks. The major free amino acids were L-aspartic acid, L-glutamic acid, L-arginine, L-alanine, L-proline, L-asparagine and L-serine. Neutral amino acids such as L-threonine, L-proline, L-valine and L-leucine, and aromatic amino acids such as tyrosine and phenylalanine were eluted over 80% of those content in fresh garlic after 3 weeks of soaking, but acidic, basic and sulfur containing amino acids were below 80% even after 5 weeks. Sulfide compounds such as diallyl trisulfide, diallyl disulfide, methyl allyl disulfide, 2-vinyl-4H-1,3-dithi in, 3-vinyl-3,4-dihydro-1,2-dithiin, 3,5-diethyl-1,24-trithiolane, isobutyl isothiocyanate and diallyl sulfide were identified as major volatile compounds of fresh garlic by using GC/MS. Among volatile compounds of fresh garlic, allyl alcohol, diallyl disulfide, 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane, diallyl trisulfide and 3,4-dimethoxy furan were eluted to liqueur, but those compounds except 3,5-diethyl-1,2,4-trithiolane were lowered in liqueur during soaking. Furfural, 5-methylfurfural, 5-hydroxymethylfurfural, dimethyl pyrazine, furfuryl alcohol, 3-hydroxy-2-bytanone and 2,3-dihydro-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyr-an-4-one were generated newly and their content increased in liqueur during soaking.

Objective : Although the L5-S1 has distinct structural features in comparison with other lumbar spine segments, not much is known about adjacent segment degeneration (ASD) at the L5-S1 segment. The aim of study was to compare the incidence and character of ASD of the cephalad and L5-S1 segments after L5 floating lumbar fusion. Methods : From 2005 to 2010, 115 patients who underwent L5 floating lumber fusion were investigated. The mean follow-up period was 46.1 months. The incidence of radiological and clinical ASD of the cephalad and the L5-S1 segments was compared using survival analysis. Risk factors affecting ASD were analyzed using a log rank test and the Cox proportional hazard model. Results : Radiological ASD of the L5-S1 segment had a statistically significant higher survival rate than that of the cephalad segment (p=0.001). However, clinical ASD of the L5-S1 segment was significantly lower survival rates than that of the cephalad segment (p=0.038). Risk factor analysis showed that disc degeneration of the cephalad segment and preoperative spinal stenosis of the L5-S1 segment were risk factors. Conclusion : In L5 floating fusion, radiological ASD was more common in the cephalad segment and clinical ASD was more common in the L5-S1 segment. At the L5-S1 segment, the degree of spinal stenosis appears to be the most influential risk factor in ASD incidences, unlike the cephalad segment.

Four species of the genus of Listeria were isolated from seawater and sea food in Kyungnam province, South Korea. These isolated strains were classified into Listeria sp. from different samples by appropriate cultivation conditions and biochemical tests including serological test. In a day enrichment cultivation, the following strains were found out of 100 samples: L. innocua (35%), L. ivanovii (4%), L. monocytogenes (4%), and L. welshimeri (1%). For seven days enrichment culture, L. innocua (38%), L. ivanoii (5%), L. monocytogenes (7%), and L. welshimeri (1%) were isolated. From these results, Listeria species were more efficiently isolated in seven day enrichment broth than in one day enrichment. However, these isolated Listeria species were less grown in the selective medium than in the enrichment medium. Isolation rates of Listeria species showed differency for each sample and Listeria species were more abundantly isolated in shrimps (80%) and crayfishes (80%) than little neck clams (50%), seawater (25%) and mussels (20%). From the results of serological classes for the seven L. monocytogenes, two strains were defined as type I and the other five strains as type IV.

Analogues of $2(S)-5, 2^{l}, 5^{l}$-trihydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxyflavanone, a naturally-occurring compound, which had been reported to have potent antitumor activity, were synthesized and examined for the cytotoxicity against three cancer cell lines. Among the intermediate chalcones and synthetic 5-hydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxyflavanone analogues, $({\pm})2^{l}, 5^{l}-dibenzyloxy-5, 7, 8-trimethoxyflavanone$ exhibited about 2-8 times stronger activity than $2(S)-5, 2^{l}, 5^{l}$-trihydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxyflavanone against L1210, K562 and A549 cancer cell lines. In the structure-activity relationship, it is suggested that among analogues of 5-hydroxy-7, 8-dimethoxyflavanone, the existence of two oxygenated groups of para-relation at $C-2^{I} and C-5^{I}$ positions on flavanone B-ring, may be necessary to exhibit effective cytotoxic activity.

This study attempted to find a way to maintain the quality of mixing baby wild leaf vegetables with existing baby leaf vegetables in various ratios. The crops for mixing baby leaf vegetables were Peucedanum japoincum Thunberg and Ligularia stenocephala, as wild vegetables, and red romaine, which is widely used in young leafy vegetables. The mixing ratio of red romaine and wild vegetables was red romaine 0: mantilla oil 5: L. stenocephala ratio 5 (R0: P5: L5), red romaine 3.3: P. japoincum 3.3: L. stenocephala ratio 3.3 (R3.3: P3.3: L3.3), red romaine 5: P. japoincum 2.5: L. stenocephala 2.5 (R5: P2.5: L2.5), red romaine 8: P. japoincum 1: L. stenocephala 1 (R8: P1: L1), red romaine 10: P. japoincum 0: L. stenocephala 0 (R10: P0: L0). All treatments were packaged in OTR (oxygen transmittance) 10,000 cc m-2·day-1·atm-1 film and stored for 27 days at 2℃/85% RH conditions. Fresh weight, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and ethylene concentrations of the baby leaf packages were examined approximately every 3 days, and visual quality, chlorophyll content, and chromaticity were examined on the 27th day of storage. The oxygen and carbon dioxide concentration in the packages were affected by the respiration rate of the crop. As the mixing ratio of lettuce, which had a low respiration rate, increased, the oxygen concentration in the packages was higher and the carbon dioxide concentration was lower. Oxygen concentration decreased significantly after 15 days, but was remained above 16%, and on the contrary, carbon dioxide concentration was kept at 1-4% until the 15th, and then gradually increased to 2-5% on the 27th day. The concentration of ethylene was maintained at 3-6 µL·L-1 until the end of storage (27th day). Visual quality score measured at the end of storage was slightly less than 3.0, which is the limit of marketability of all treatments. Although there was no significant difference, the chlorophyll content (SPAD) of red romaine and P. japoincum were most similar with an initial value in R8:P1:1 treatment, and L. stenocephala was higher value in R8:P1:L1 and R5:P2.5:L2.5 treatments at the end of storage. The leaf color (L∗, a∗, b∗, chroma) of the three crops at end of storage compared with the heat map showed the least change in the R5:P2.5:L2.5 and R8:P1:L1 treatments at the end of storage. Among them, R8:P1:L1 treatment maintained the highest chlorophyll content, the second lowest ethylene concentration, and adequate carbon dioxide concentration of 2-3%. Therefore, it is judged that the mixed ratio of red romaine 8: P. japoincum 1: L. stenocephala 1 (R8: P1: L1) is most suitable for the mixed package of baby leaf vegetables of these three crops.

Effect of temperature($22-32^{\circ}C$), pH(5-7) and medium composition on the mycelial growth for the submerged culture of Inonotus obliquus. The concentrations of glucose, starch, peptone, yeast extract, $K_2HPO_4$, $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ and $CaCl_2$ were examined in the ranges of 30-120 g/L, 0-10 g/L, 0-20 g/L, 0-15 g/L, 0-2 g/L, 0-1.5 g/L and 0-0.5g/L, respectively. The maximum mycelial growth of Inonotus obliquus was obtained for $26-27^{\circ}C$ and pH 6. The concentrations of glucose, yeast extract and $CaCl_2$, which gave the maximum mycelial growth of Inonotus obliquus, were 70 g/L, 5 g/L and 0.1 g/L, respectively. In the cases of starch, peptone and $K_2HPO_4$, the mycelial growth of Inonotus obliquus increased with increasing the concentrations. However, as the concentration of $MgSO_4{\cdot}7H_2O$ increased, the mycelial growth of Inonotus obliquus decreased. The medium for maximum mycelial growth of Inonotus obliquus consisted of (per 1 L): glucose, 70 g; peptone, 5-20 g; starch, 10 g; yeast extract, 5 g; $K_2HPO_4$, 2 g and $CaCl_2$, 0.1 g.

The patients who visited the Health Promotion Center were compared between the visceral fat area according to CT fat measurement position and the visceral fat area measured by Inbody. In the CT measurement, the visceral fat area measured at the L4-5 and CT Umbilicus positions was not different regardless of gender. In addition, there was no difference between CT visceral fat area and Inbody visceral fat area in the correlation between visceral fat area according to CT measurement position and visceral fat area measured by Inbody. The highly correlated CT measurement position were male L4-5, L5-S1, female L3-4, L4-5, L5-S1, and Umbilicus. In addition, when studying the relationship between the inbody visceral fat area and CT visceral fat area regardless of gender, it is suggested to compare the visceral fat area at the CT L4-5 position.
