A feeding trial was conducted to determine the optimum dietary protein and lipid levels for the growth of juvenile muddy loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus. Eight experimental diets (designated as P20L7, P20L14, P30L7, P30L14, P40L7, P40L14, P50L7 and P50L14) were formulated to contain 20%, 30%, 40% and 50% protein with 7% and 14% lipid. Three replicate groups of muddy loach (1.5 g/fish) were fed one of the experimental diets ad libitum for 8 weeks. Survival of fish fed the P20L14 diet was lower than in other groups (P<0.05). Specific growth rate (SGR) and feed efficiency (FE) of fish were affected by dietary protein (P<0.05) and lipid (P<0.005) levels. SGR and FE of fish tended to decrease with increasing dietary lipid level at the same protein level. There were no significant differences in SGR and FE among fish fed diets containing different protein levels ranging from 30% to 50% with the same lipid level. Whole body moisture and lipid contents were affected by dietary protein and lipid levels. Crude lipid content of fish fed the 14% lipid diets was higher than that of fish fed 7% lipid diets at each protein level. The results of this study indicate that a diet containing 30% protein with 7% lipid would be suitable for the optimum growth and effective feed utilization of juvenile muddy loach.

Lipid peroxidation is known to be an important factor in the pathologies of many diseases associated with oxidative stress. We assessed the lipid peroxidation induced by the reaction of ferritin with $H_2O_2$. When linoleic acid micelles or phosphatidyl choline liposomes were incubated with ferritin and $H_2O_2$, lipid peroxidation increased in the presence of ferritin and $H_2O_2$ in a concentration-dependent manner. The hydroxyl radical scavengers, azide and thiourea, prevented lipid peroxidation induced by the ferritin/$H_2O_2$ system. The iron specific chelator desferoxamine also prevented ferritin/$H_2O_2$ systemmediated lipid peroxidation. These results demonstrate the possible role of iron in ferritin/$H_2O_2$ system-mediated lipid peroxidation. Carnosine is involved in many cellular defense processes, including free radical detoxification. In this study, carnosine, homocarnosine, and anserine were shown to significantly prevent ferritin/$H_2O_2$ system-mediated lipid peroxidation and also inhibited the free radical-generation activity of ferritin. These results indicated that carnosine and related compounds may prevent ferritin/$H_2O_2$ system-mediated lipid peroxidation via free radical scavenging.

This study determined hepatic microsomal lipid peroxide values glucose 6-phosphatase NA-DPH-cytochrome P450 reductase and cytosolic glutathione S-transferase activites to examine the effects of methyl group deficiency on hepatic lipid peroxidation in rats treated with diethylni-trosamine(DEN) and 2-acetylamionfluorene(AAF) Weanling sprague Dawley male rats were fed the diet with methyl group supplemented or deficient. Two weeks after feeding rate were injected with a single of 200mg/kg body weight DEN intraperitoneally and after four weeks 0.02% AAF containing diets were fed for two weeks. Animals were sacrificed at 6th week. Microsomal lipid peroxide values were tended to increase in methyl group deficiency(MD). Especially in case of carcinogen tratments lipid peroxide values were increased significantly in MD. Microsomal glucose 6-phophatase activities were decreased by MD and carcinogens and in MD with carcinogen group (MD+C) the enzyme activites were the lowest Glucose 6-phosphatase activities were negatively correlated with lipid peroxidation. Microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase activities were the highest in MD+C and correlated positively with lipid peroxidation. Cytosolic glutathione S-transferase activities were the highest in MD+C Methyl group deficiency induces lipid peroxidation especially in case of being exposed to carcinogens. Therefore the results suggest that lipid peroxidation may be one of the meachanisms of carcinogensis by methyl group deficiency.

The thermodynamic functions for the binding of the peptide Substance P (SP) on the surface of lipid vesicles made of various types of lipids were obtained by using isothermal titration calorimetry. The reaction enthalpies measured from the experiments were -0.11 to $-4.5kcal\;mol^{-1}$. The sizes of the lipid vesicles were measured with dynamic light scattering instrument in order to get the correlation between the reaction enthalpies and the vesicle sizes. The bindings of SP on the lipid vesicles with diameter of 37 to 108 nm were classified into the enthalpy-driven reaction or the entropy-driven reaction according to the size of the lipid vesicles. For the enthalpy-driven binding reaction, the significance of the electrostatic interactions between SP and lipid molecules was affirmed from the experimental results of the DMPC/DMPG/DMPH and DMPC/DMPS/DMPH vesicles as well as the importance of the hydrophobic interactions between hydrophobic groups of SP and lipid molecules.

A feeding trial was carried out to Investigate the effect of lipid level and herb mixture in the diets on growth of juvenile parrot fish, Oplegnathus fasciatus. Two plicate groups of fish averaging 4.5 g were fed four experimental diets containing herb mixture (0 and 5 g/kg diet) at each of two lipid levels $(8\%\;and\;16\%)$ for 8 months from summer to spring (water temperature, $7.2-25.4^{\circ}C)$. Weight gain improved with increasing dietary lipid level or supplementation of herb mixture during the first 4 months feeding period. Weight gain of fish fed the diet containing $16\%$ lipid level was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that of fish fed the diet containing $8\%$ lipid level. Weight gain of fish fed the diet with herb mixture was significantly higher (P<0.05) than that of fish fed the diet without herb at the $16\%$ lipid level. Feed efficiency was influenced by dietary lipid level or herb mixture during the first 4 months. On the other hand, weight gain and feed efficiency were not affected by dietary lipid level and herb mixture after 4 months until end of feeing period. Survival of fish fed the diet containing $8\%$ lipid without supplementation of herb mixture was the lowest among the groups (P<0.05). Lipid contents of liver and viscera tended to increase with increasing dietary lipid level during the first 4 months feeding period, however muscle lipid content was not influenced by dietary lipid and herb. Total cholesterol of serum was influenced by dietary lipid level during the first 4 months feeding period. These results indicate that an increase of dietary lipid level from $8\%\;to\;16\%$ and supplementation of herb mixture can improve growth performance of juvenile parrot fish when water temperature is optimum for growth such as the summer season in Korea.

This study was conducted to evaluate the usage of TBA method for the analysis of lipid peroxidation induced by streptozotocin. 5 mM streptozotocin and 1 % TBA alone showed the maximum peak at 309 nm and 358 nm respectively, although no peak was observed at 532 nm which was the wavelength to determine the absorbance for TBA method. When 5 mM streptozotocin was mixed together with 1 % TBA in vitro, new peaks at 439 nm and 532 nm had been detected, suggesting TBA did interact directly with streptozotocin forming new colored products. These results suggest that TBA method is not adequate for determination of lipid lperoxidation induced by streptozotocin.

This study was undertaken to find out the effect of cholesterol and serum albumin on sperm ability and lipid peroxidation levels period to the liquid storage of miniature pig sperm. Ejaculated semen from miniature pigs was collected by gloved-hand method into a pre-warmed ($37^{\circ}C$) thermos bottle, and extended with Modena solution {with and without BSA, methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (-cholesterol) and cholesterol loaded cyclodextrin (+cholesterol)}. Each semen was assessed for viability (SYBR-14/PI staining) and acrosome intactness, intensity and capacitation status by chlorotetracycline (CTC) staining at 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days of storage. At for the effects of cholesterol and serum albumin on lipid peroxidation, semen were incubated with $H_2O_2$ ($10\;{\mu}M$), and lipid peroxidation level were measured by flow cytometry using the lipid peroxidation reporter probe $C_{11}-BODIPY^{581/591}$. The result, lipid peroxidation level in sperm added with cholesterol were lower in $10\;{\mu}M$ $H_2O_2$ compared to the added sperm with serum albumin. Also, added cholesterol to sperm had significant (p<0.05) higher viability when storage for 7 and 10 days and lower when 10 days of storage percentage of acrosome-reacted sperm (AR pattern) in acrosome state as say result compared to other treated groups. In conclusion, role of cholesterol during lipid storage in miniature pig spermatozoa was protected boar spermatozoa from lipid peroxidation prior to lipid storage. Addition serum albumin during lipid storage in sperm may be induce sperm membrane damage by lipid peroxidation. Therefore, addition of cholesterol to miniature pig sperm will be lead to extension of liquid storage periods.

Microalgae are being researched for their potential as attractive biofuel feedstock, particularly for their lipid production. For maximizing biofuel production, it is necessary to explore the effects of environmental factors on algal lipid-producing potential. In this study, the effects of nitrogen (N) sources (NO₂-N, NO₃-N, urea-N, NH₄-N, and N-deficiency) and carbon-to-nitrogen ratios (C/N= 0, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0) on algal lipid-producing potential of Chlorella sp. HQ were investigated. The results showed that for Chlorella growth and lipid accumulation potential, NO₂-N was the best amongst the nitrogen sources, and NO₃-N and urea-N also contributed to algal growth and lipid accumulation potential, but NH₄-N and N-deficiency instead caused inhibitory effects. Moreover, the results indicated that algal lipid-producing potential was related to C/N ratios. With NO₂-N treatment and carbon addition (C/N = 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0), total lipid yield was enhanced by 12.96-20.37%, but triacylglycerol (TAG) yields decreased by 25.52-94.31%. As for NO₃-N treatment, carbon addition led to a 17.82-57.43%/25.86-82.67% reduction of total lipid/TAG yields. When NH₄-N was used as the nitrogen source, total lipid/TAG yields were increased by 46.67-113.33%/28.99-74.76% with carbon addition. The total lipid/TAG yields of urea-N treatment varied with C/N ratios. Overall, the highest TAG yield (TAG yield: 38.75 ± 5.21 mg/l; TAG content: 44.16 ± 4.35%) was achieved under NO₂-N treatment without carbon addition (C/N = 0), the condition that had merit for biofuel production.

This study was conducted to investigate the changes in lipid components of red pepper under various processing conditions such as drying, exposing to lights, extraction and storage conditions. The material used in this study were Chungyang cultivars which contained the largest amount of capsaicinoids and Dabok cultivars which is most popular among the various cultivars produced in Korea. Total lipid content of Chungyang was 15.7% and those of Dabok, Udeungsang and Hongilpum were about 17%. The neutral lipid content in free lipid of red pepper was $78.5{\sim}80.3%$ Phospholipid and glycolipid content in bound lipid were $53.8{\sim}56.9%$ and $35.3{\sim}38.7%$ respectively. The major fatty acids of lipid were linoleic, palmitic and oleic acid. Linoleic acid was presented mainly in pericarp, seed and placenta, whereas the most of palmitic acid was presented in stem. Lipid content of cut and whole red pepper were decreased $24.7{\sim}28%$ and $18.1{\sim}21.5%$ by drying for 48hrs at $65^{\circ}C$ and $95^{\circ}C$. And lipid content was also decreased $3.5{\sim}3.6%$ when the red pepper powder was exposed to 15,000 lux of incandescent light for 30 days at $40^{\circ}C$ and $4{\sim}4.9%$ to fluorescent light. The lipid was extracted the highest content of $50.5{\sim}51.7%$ by acid solution(pH2) and the lowest content by neutral solution, and the higher the salt concentration, the greater the lipid was extracted. During storage at $4^{\circ}C,\;25^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C$, for 30 days the lipid content was not much changed but linoleic acid content was decreased during storage at the same conditions.
