Aggregation pheromone of Riptortus pedestris (Fabricius) (Hemiptera: Alydidae) has kairomonal effect on its egg parasitoids. Thus, inclusion of non-viable host eggs of R. pedestris to aggregation pheromone trap was suggested to propagate parasitoids attracted in the trap. In this study, spatial and temporal distribution of egg parasitoids were investigated in sesame fields in Songcheon, Andong where aggregation pheromone traps were installed with non-viable host eggs. Parasitism changes were assessed after collecting non-viable host eggs released at distances of 8, 16, 24, and 32 m from the trap. Higher egg parasitism and adult emergence was found up to 16 m from the point of release. Parasitism increased over time, but decreased with distance. For the comparison of change in temporal parasitism, traps were installed without host eggs in another sesame field. Parasitism rate in sesame field without host eggs increased by 13%, whereas, in the field with host eggs, the parasitism increased up to 44%. These findings suggest that host eggs attached to the pheromone traps help the parasitoids propagate and disperse.

Sesame oil is a simple pressed oil as unrefined oil. During manufacturing process of roasting-expression, benzo(a)pyrene[B(a)P] formed as a strong carcinogenic substance is cause a social problem. In manufacturing process of sesame oil, it had following the forming pathway of benzo(a)pyrene[B(a)P] as well as minimizing plan of B(a)P formation. Suitable roasting condition by roaster was during 15~20min at 220℃, B(a)P content in sesame oil was 1.35~1.57μg/kg. Between roasting temperature and/or roastingtime and forming amount of B(a)P was showed a linear correlation. As a point of view the turbidity and yield of final product, roasting process of the more regular level was required.

참깨 종자의 발아율 향상 및 초기생육 촉진을 위한 priming 처리의 적정 조건을 구명하기 위하여 priming 약제 및 농도,priming 기간과 온도 및 priming후 저온 및 고온에서의 발아율에 대한 실험 결과에서 참깨 종자의 Priming에 가장 효과적인 약제는 PEG 6000, 농도는 −0.75MPa이었으며, priming처리 기간은 15에서 4일 처리하는 것이 가장 효과 적이었다.참깨 종자의 priming처리가 최종 발아율 향상에는 크게 기여하지 못했지만 초기 발아율 향상 및 T50 단축에 효과 적이었다. 참깨 종자의 Priming처리는 20oC 이상 보다는 15oC 저온에서 T50 단축에 효과적이었고, 발아율도 향상되어 재배적온보다는 저온하에서 Priming 효과가 극대화 될 것으로 판단된다. Priming 처리 후 건조 온도 조건에 따른 발아율에는 차이가 없어 25oC에서 3시간 정도 건조 시키는 것이 가장 경제적이었다.

유리지방산(FFA), 글리세롤, MAG, 세사몰, 수용성 참깨 박 추출물(ASM) 첨가에 의한 213oC에서 21분 볶아 제조된 참기름의 180oC 열산화 시 세사몰과 세사몰린 함량 변화를 분석하였다. 90분간의 열산화에 의해 FFA와 MAG가 10% 첨가된 시료는 각각 0.94, 0.70 mM의 세사몰이 유의적으로 추가 생성되었으나 대조구는 0.09 mM만 증가하였다(p < 0.05). 세사몰린의 경우 FFA와 MAG 10% 첨가 시료는 대조구에 비해 15 및 18% 유의적으로 감소하였다(p < 0.05). 1.5와 2.5 mM 첨가 세사몰은 세사몰린의 유의적인 변화를 유발하지 않았다(p > 0.05). ASM 첨가 시료에서 세사몰과 세사몰린의 일관적인 변화는 확인되지 않았다. 고온에서 볶은 참깨로부터 착유된 참기름의 가열 산화 시 세사몰 생성 및 세사몰린 분해에는 FFA 및 MAG 같은 유지산화생성물의 함량에 주로 영향을 받는 것으로 사료된다.

근적외선 분광 분석법을 이용하여 참깨의 지방함량의 신속측정 가능성에 대해서 연구하였다. 검량식의 기본 모형은 다중 회귀 모형으로 하였으며, 회귀 모형의 독립 변수의 선택은 step-wise법을 이용하였다. 1. 참깨의 121점 중 지방산 함량 분포는 palmitic acid(IT028899-7.2%, IT169359-10.0%), stearic acid(IT028897-4.5%, IT028910-7.0%), oleic acid(IT170020-32.2%, IT156371-46.5%), linoleic acid(IT156348-36.5, IT169926-49.6%), 그리고 linolenic acid(IT169316-0.2%, IT156367-0.6%)로 나타났다. 2. 지방함량을 예측하기 위해서 검량선 작성시 종래의 화학적 방법에 의한 분석치와 NIRS 분석치 와의 상관계수는 oleic acid(r2-0.834) and linoleic acid(r2-0.925)로 판단되어 linoleic acid의 이용은 가능할 것으로 판단되었다.

This study was conducted in order to investigate the effect of black sesame oil on hair growth in a shaving animal model of C57BL/6 mice. Five-week-old male mice were acclimated for one week under 22±1 µl room temperature, 50±5% relative humidity, and 12 hours of a light/dark cycle before beginning the experiment. The animals were divided into three groups, including the normal group (saline, N), positive control group (3% MXD, PC), and experimental group (black sesame oil, E) and received topical application of 100 µl once per day, six days per week, for a period of three weeks. Hair regrowth was evaluated by gross and histological examination. In addition, immunohistochemical observation for SCF, the activities of enzymes, including ALP and γ-GT, and the expression quantity of growth factors, including IGF-1 in the skin of mice was performed or evaluated. Topical treatment with black sesame oil and 3% minoxidil for three weeks to dorsal skin resulted in more rapid acceleration of hair regrowth in the E and PC groups than in the N group. Development and elongation of hair follicles were promoted in the E and PC groups, compared with the N group. Serum ALP activity was significantly higher in the E group, compared with the N group within three weeks (p<0.05). Skin ALP activity was significantly higher in the PC group, compared with the N group within two weeks (p<0.05), and higher in the E and PC groups than in the N group within three weeks with no significant differences. Serum γ-GT activity was significantly higher in the PC group, compared with the N group within two weeks (p<0.01), and significantly higher in the E group, compared with the N group within three weeks (p<0.05). Skin γ-GT activity was significantly higher in the PC group, compared with the N group within two weeks (p<0.05), and significantly higher in the PC (p<0.01) and E (p<0.001) groups, compared with the N group within three weeks. IGF-1 expression in the skin was significantly higher in the PC and E groups, compared with the N group (p<0.01). SCF antigens were heavily stained in bulge, stem cells, and dermal papilla and middle stained in inner root sheath, outer root sheath, and epidermis in the E and PC groups. These results indicate that black sesame oil effectively stimulated hair growth in an animal model via several mechanisms and that it can be used practically for hair growth or prevention of hair loss in human beings.

참기름은 높은 항산화활성 및 항암작용 등의 우수한 영양학적 가치를 지니는 반면 비싼 가격으로 인하여 가짜 참기름의 유통이 범람하여 이를 판별할 수 있는 분석 방법의 확립이 요구되는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 질량분석기를 바탕으로 한 전자코를 이용하여 대두유가 혼합된 참기름을 제조하여 진위 판별을 시도하기위하여 각각의 유지를 전자코를 이용하여 분석, 통계처리하였다. 혼합 참기름의 휘발성 향기성분으로부터 생성되는 ion fragment 중 40-160 amu에서 각 시료 간에 차별성이 높은 fragment (m/z)를 선택하여 해당 intensity값을 판별 분석한 결과, 참기름 및 대두유는 뚜렷하게 구분되었다. 참기름 및 대두유, 옥수수유, 들기름을 각각의 순수한 상태로 향기성분 분석을 한 결과 서로 다른 위치에서 정확하게 분리됨을 알 수 있었고, 대두유와 옥수수유의 경우 타 기름과는 달리 순수한 공기 성분과 비슷한 위치에서 확인되는 것으로 휘발성 향기성분의 감응도가 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 판단된다. 미량의 대두유가 혼합된 참기름은 첨가된 대두유의 농도에 비례하여 제1판별함수값(DF1)과 높은 상관관계를 나타내었다. 참향후 참기름의 위조 여부를 검증하는 방법에 하나로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of the black sesame Dasikadded spirulina (0, 10, 20, 30%). Black sesame Dasik with 30% spirulina showed a higher moisture content compared to control. L, a and b values of Hunter color system were decreased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). Hardness and gumminess analyzed by TPA (Texture profile analyzer) were increased significantly according to the addition of spirulina (p<0.05). The antioxidant property of black sesame Dasik increased according to the addition of spirulina: IC50 values of DPPH (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl) and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the control was 112.3 g/mL and 56.2 mg/mL, respectively, whereas those of Dasik with 30% addition of spirulina was 58.2 mg/mL and 45.7 mg/mL, respectively. Sensory evaluation results showed that the overall acceptability was not significantly different up to 20% addition of spirulina, compared to that of the control. Based on these results, it was suggested that the addition of spirulina to black sesame Dasik was appropriated up to 20% for quality improvement with antioxidant activity.

This survey was conducted to monitor the adulteration of sesame oil circulated in Gwangju, 2007. A total of 60 samples was tested by analysis of fatty acid composition. Of these samples, 22 were from large-scale manufacturer, 25 were from small-scale manufacturer and 13 from Bangagan. First of all, in goods manufactured by large-scale company, there are no sesame oils where linolenic acid (C18:3) exceed regulatory guidance (0.5%). 5 samples from small-scale manufacturer contained linolenic acid from 0.90% to 8.38%, which means that they have other cooking oil, such as corn oil, soybean oil and rape seed oil. Among Bangagan goods, only one sample have 1.20% of linolenic acid. On the other hand erucic acid (C22:1) was not detected in 60 samples at all, which means that they were not adulterated with rape seed oil. And among 6 samples of exceeding 0.5% of linolenic acid and 12 samples from Bangagan, 13 of them had benzo(a)pyrene from 0.2 μg/kg to 0.7 μg/kg and the other 5 samples did not.

초임계 유체 추출 공정을 이용하여 참깨에서 hydrocarbon류를 검출하여 참깨의 방사선 조사 여부 검지 전처리 기술에 활용하고자 하였다. 참깨를 2 kGy의 감마선을 조사하여 hexane으로 지방을 추출한 용매 추출과 초임계 유체 추출을 이용하여 추출한 지방을 Florisil column으로 분리한 후 hydrocarbon류를 GC-MS로 분석하였다. 용매 추출에서와 같이 초임계 유체 추출 공정을 이용하여 검출된 hydrocarbon류은 동일하게 검지되었으며 그 marker로써 활용 가능한 hydrocarbon류인 16:3, 17:2, 16:2, 17:1은 비조사 참깨에서는 검출되지 않았다. 보조 용매를 사용한 초임계 추출 공정에서 각 보조용매에서 추출된 지방량은 용매 추출보다 많았으며 보조용매를 사용하여 검출된 hydrocarbon류의 검출량은 methanol을 제외하고 전반적으로 많이 검출되었다. 특히 acetone의 경우 marker로 사용가능한 hydrocarbon류는 용매 추출에서보다 3-4배 정도, CO2만을 사용한 초임계 유체 추출 공정에서 보다 거의 2배의 검출 특성을 보여주었다. 이러한 결과는 초임계 유체 추출 공정이 방사선 조사 여부 검지 기술에 있어서 기존의 용매 추출에 비해 지방 추출시 용매 소모량의 감소, hydrocarbon류의 검출량 증가 등의 이유로 hydrocarbon류의 검지 기술에 있어 전처리 기술로 활용 가능하리라 사료된다.
