The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of garlic diet on blood coagulation in cholesterol-fed rats. 36 male rats were divided into six groups and fed experimental diet for three weeks. Two-levels (2% and 4%) of fresh and boiled garlic were supplemented to the stock diet with 2% cholesterol and 0.25% bile salt for the experimental diet. After the rats fed with experimental diets during 3 weeks, the whole blood coagulation time, the content of plasma fibrinogen, the fibrinolytic activity and the prothrombin time were measured. The results are summarized as follows; 1. Garlic diet have no influence on body weight and food consumption in rats. 2. In the case of cholesterol-fed group, the whole blood coagulation time was decreased 24.3% compared with the normal group(A). But garlic diet group(C) was similar to the normal group(A) and groupD-F was increased 4.9-11.5%. 3. The content of plasma fibrinogen of cholesterol-fed group was higher 114.5% than that of normal gropu(A). In the garlic diets(C-F) the contents of plasma fibrinogen were increased 33.1-63.8%. 4. The fibrinolytic activity of cholesterol diet was decreased 16.2% compared with the normal group(A) but was increased 10.9-44.5% compared to the garlic diets(C-F). 5. The prothrombin time of cholesterol-fed group was decreased 8.9% compared with normal group(A) but was increased 8.0-46.3% in garlic diets(C-F). As mentioned above, the garlic diets increased whole blood coagulation time, prothrombin time and fibrinolytic activity and decreased the content of fibrinogen. For that reason it is thought that the garlic diets have a anticoagulation effect regulating the fibrinogen synthesis in liver.
Several authors reported that vegetable proteins cause to decrease serum cholesterol and reported the effect of limiting amino acid balance in dietary protein on the blood component. This study was designed to observe growth rate and blood component in 1% cholesterol-fed male rats intake pure isolated soy proteins and methionine for 4 weeks. The diets were supplemented with either 20% casein or isolated soy protein as dietary protein sources and methionine as limiting amino acid of isolated soy protein and casein protein. The results were as follows; 1) The body weight gain was the greatest in casein groups. 2) Serum total cholesterol concentration was significantly increased by casein groups and slightly decreased by isolated soy protein groups. 3) Serum HDL-cholesterol concentration was significantly increased by isolated soy protein groups than control group. 4) Serum total lipid and triglyceride concentrations were significantly decreased by isolated soy protein groups than control group. 5) Serum glucose concentration was significantly increased by isolated soy protein plus 0.8% methionine than control group. 6) Serum total protein and albumin concentrations were significantly increased by all experimental diets groups than control group. Especially, casein groups were the most increased in all experimental diets groups.
The composition of fatty acid and amino acid for Seong-ge-al(sea urchin) were analysed by the automatic analyser. There are two kind of samples such as raw and saited, fermented one. The results obtained are as follows. 1. In the general composition, crude protein, crude lipid and ash as 15.8%, 3.5% and 2.2%, respectively. The raw sample showed pH 5.6 value. 2. In case of amino acid, it contained 17 different kind of amino acids. Among them, a lot of glutamic acid, aspartic acid, arginine, glycine and valine were contained. 3. In case of fermentation period, threonine, histidine, lysine and arginine were increased a little bit. 4. In case of fatty acid, it contained 13 different kind of fatty acids. Among them, a lot of palmitic acid, behnic acid, linoleic acid and arachidonic acid were contained.
The antioxidant activity of petroleum ether extract of Panax ginseng roots in the oxidation of mixed methyl esters of unsaturated fatty acids(MEUFA) was investigated in vitro. The petroleum ether extract of panax ginseng roots showed the antioxidant activity and inhibited the weight gain in the autoxidation of MEUFA. And the induction periods in the autoxidation of MEUFA were related to te addition concentrations of petroleum ether extact. The antioxidant effect of petroleum ether extract on the autoxidation of MEUFA was caused by the protective formation of lipid peroxides and carbonyl compounds. From the results obtained, it was confirmed that petroleum ether extract of panax ginseng roots contained antioxidant substances.
1.2-bis(aminoacyl)hydrazine derivatives and dipeptides were synthesized by conventional peptide synthesis procedures. Their antioxidant activity were inverstigated by over-storage test using corn oil as substrte. 1.2-bis (aminoacyl) hydrazine derivatives and dipetides containing hydrophobic side chain amino acid showed higher antioxidant activity. A free N-terminal amino group was also found to be important for the appearance of antioxidant activity. 1.2-bis (aminoacyl) hydrazine derivatives showed higher antioxidant activity than dipeptides. Antimicrobial activites of dipeptides and 1.2-bis (aminoacyl) hydrazine derivatives were also examined by the paper disc method. All of these compounds had shown no antimicrobial activity.
The purpose of the study was to find an effect of Medium Chain Triglycerids (MCT) diet on cholesterol metabolism in rat. Sprague-Dawley rats were fed two different diets containing MCT(trioctanoate) and corn oil respectively. After feeding to each group for four weeks, the levels of serum and liver cholesterol, the excretion rates of fecal and biliary steroids, and also bile acid composition were investigated. The results obtained from the study are as follows : (1) The average body weight gain in MCT group was almost same as that in the corn oil group. (2) The concentration of serum cholesterol in MCT group was lower than that in the corn oil group. Therefore it is confirmed that the cholesterol lowing action of MCT diet was practically high. (3) The concentrations of liver cholesterol and Triglyceride in MCT group were almost same as that in the corn oil group. Therefore it is thought that the level of liver lipids was not influenced by the difference of diet in this study. (4) The excretion rate of fecal neutral steroid in MCT group was significantly lower than that in the corn oil group, while the rate of fecal bile acid excretion was about same in both MCT and corn oil group. (5) The composition rates of fecal bile acid such as cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid, a secondary acid of cholic acid, in MCT group were significantly lower than that in the corn oil group. (6) The excretion rates of biliary cholesterol and bile acid in MCT group were significantly higher than that in the corn oil group, while the composition rates of biliary bile acid such as chenoddeoxycholic acid and deoxycholic acid in MCT group were significantly higher than that in the corn oil group.
1-(carboxyalkyl) trimethyl ammonium chlorides such as 1-(carboxyundecyl) trimethyl ammonium chloride and 1-(carboxytridecyl) trimethyiammonium chloride were synthesized by the reaction of α-bromoalkanoic acid with trimethyl amine hydrochloride.
