Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) 막은 내구성 및 열적⋅화학적 안정성 등의 물성은 우수하나 소수성이 커서 수투과도가 낮고 단백질 및 유기물에 의한 막오염이 쉽게 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 PVDF 막의 내오염성을 개선시키고자 바이오 기능성 물질인 β-cyclodextrin (β-CD)을 PVDF 막 구조 내에 분산 함침시킨 PVDF/β-CD 혼합기질 비대칭막을 상변환 법을 통해 제조하고, β-CD 함침량에 따른 순수 투과 유속(PWF) 측정과 BSA 용액을 대상으로 한 막여과 실험을 수행하여 내오염성 특성을 평가하였다. 이 결과 PVDF 고분자 매질 내에 β-CD를 함침시키면 막의 친수성을 증가시켜 접촉각을 감소시키고 이로 인해 내오염성을 향상시킬 수 있었다. β-CD 함침량이 2 wt%인 도프용액을 사용하여 제조된 PVDF/β-CD 혼합 기질 비대칭막의 PWF는 64 L/m2⋅h, BSA 배제도는 95%를 나타내었으며, β-CD를 첨가하지 않고 제조된 pristine PVDF 막에 비해 투과 유속 향상성이 최대 80%에 달해 β-CD를 첨가시킴으로서 PVDF 막의 내오염성을 증가시킬 수 있었다.

To increase the stability of anthocyanin from black rice, β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) formed a complex with anthocyanin, and thermal and UVB stability of the complex was investigated at various pH levels. The formation of β-CD complex with anthocyanin was confirmed by the decreased UV-Vis spectrophotometer absorbance (at 511nm) with increasing the concentration of β-CD at pH 2, 2.5, 3, 4, and 5. ABTS (2, 2’-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid)assay was conducted to measure radical scavenging capacity (RSC) of the complex at pH 2, 4, 6, and 8, after which the RSCs were recorded over the 24 h heating(95°C) and 24 h UVB irradiating periods. The RSC values of the complexes increased as the β-CD concentration increased (0.1-2%) at pH 6 and 8. Upon thermal treatment, the RSC readings of the complexes tended to decrease to a lesser extent compared to the anthocyanin control (without β-CD) at pH 2. This result suggests that the thermal stability of anthocyanin was more retained in the presence of β-CD at low pH (pH 2). However, in the case of UVB irradiation, the effect of β-CD complex on the anthocyanin RSC was not significant, though the RSC values for both the anthocyanin control and complexes trended downward as the UVB irradiation time increased at all pH ranges except for pH 8 (no downward trend). In short, this study suggests that the effect of β-CD complex on the stability of anthocyanin antioxidant capacity depends on pH and the susceptibility to the degradation process.

β-cyclodextrin has an ability to protect compounds from oxidative reaction by collecting them within its ring-like structure. So, In harsh condition (40oC), marker compound, quercetin, was dramatically reduced in Hovenia dulcis fruit extract containing dextrin at 4 and 8 week compared to 0 week, but not that containing β-cyclodextrin. To evaluate the effects of dextrin and β-cyclodextrin on protective effect of H.dulcis fruit extract against alcohol- induced liver damage, The mice were orally injected alcohol, H. dulcis fruit extract/dextrin (HD) and H. dulcis fruit extract/β-cyclodextrin (HCD), respectively, for 7 days. The mice orally administrated with alcohol significantly enhanced the serum concentration of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in serum compared to the control group. HD and HCD significantly decreased the levels of serum ALT and AST and serum LDH activities compared to alcohol group. And also alcohol group significantly increased the level of total cholesterol compared to the control group, but HD and HCD significantly reduced it compared to the alcohol group. However, the levels of TG in blood were not significantly changed in all groups. The activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) were significantly increased in HD and HCD group although those of aldehyde dehydrogenase showed an increasing tendency. This data suggested that HD and HCD were able to induce alcohol degradation in the liver tissues. All together, the results showed that HCD demonstrated their ability to protect liver from alcohol-induced damage on equal terms with HD.

본 연구는 김치건조분말을 제조하는 과정에서 김치의 발효과정과 건조 전후에서 나타나는 향기성분의 변화를 조사하고, β-cyclodextrin의 첨가로 인한 향기성분 포집효과를 검증하고자 GC-MS를 이용하여 분석실험을 실시하였다. 김치를 제조하여 20oC에서 발효시켰을 때, 초기 2일째는 dimethyl sulfide와 carbon disulfide가 생성되었고, 7일이 경과하였을 때, dimethyl disulfide, methyl 2-propenyl disulfide, allyl methyl sulfide, and di-2-propenyl disulfide의 황화합물이 주된 향기성분으로 검출되었다. 본 김치시료를 감압건조 하였을 때, 11개 화합물이 검출되지 않았고 dimethyl sulfide, acetaldehyde and methanethiol를 주로 포함하는 13개 화합물이 잔류하였다. 건조공정 중에서 김치 향기성분의 손실을 최소화하고자 0.25-1.0% 농도의 β-cyclodextrin을 건조보조제로 첨가하였을 때, 향기성분의 포집효과에 의해 건조 김치분말에 잔류하는 향기성분의 함량이 평균 3% 증가하였다. 본 연구결과로 볼 때 cyclodextrin은 건조 김치분말 제조공정뿐만 아니라 건조식품제조에서 건조보조제로 효과적으로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

This study demonstrates that pork cholesterol levels are reduced in finishing swine fed β-cyclodextrin (βCD). The study subjects were 120 swine fed their respective chow diets containing 0, 5, 7, or 10% βCD for 35 consecutive days. Plasma total lipids, triglyceride and total cholesterol of the βCD- treated group were significantly lower than those of the control group (p<0.05). The levels of plasma lipid were significantly decreased by 63.22 mg, 73.98 mg, and 82.12 mg in the finishing swine group fed βCD at 5%, 7%, and 10% , respectively, compared to those in the control group (p<0.05). When 5, 7, and 10% βCD was administered to finishing swine, the triacylglyceride levels were decreased by 56.24 mg, 55.48 mg, and 60.02 mg, and total cholesterol concentration was reduced by 25.05 mg, 27.17 mg, and 30.19 mg, respectively, compared to those in the control group (p<0.05). Excretion of total steroid significantly (p<0.05) increased with increase of βCD supplementation. The cholesterol levels of swine back fat, belly, loin, and ham were significantly decreased with increase of βCD supplementation (p<0.05). The pork cholesterol was significantly (p<0.05) reduced by 15.31% in the βCD-treated group, compared to that of the control group. These results suggest that feeding βCD to finishing swine may produce novel functional pork with low cholesterol levels.

This study was performed to investigate flavor modification effects of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) inclusion complex on the flavor of Doenjang (Korean traditional fermented soy paste) with various substitution levels of 10, 20, and 30%. Water and protein contents of the substituted samples showed significantly lower values compared to those of control(p〈0.05). Results of DSC(Differential Scanning Calorimetry) showed that significantly higher δH values (386.03 and 304.23) in the 20 and 30% substituted samples represented the stabilized internal cell structures(p〈0.05). Internal structures observed with the scanning electronic microscope tended to be less rough and organized making even and ordered internal cell structures as the substitution levels were increased. Results of sensory evaluation showed significantly higher savory flavor and significantly lower bitter and astringent flavors with the substituted samples compared to those of control(p〈0.05). Results from this study showed the substitutions of β-CD could possibly modify unfavored flavors of Doenjang while keeping the unique, nutritional and functional properties when β-CD was used as a flavor modifier.

Cyclodextrin are obtained from starch by enzymatic degradation. The three best characterize forms are α, β, γ cyclodextrin consisting of 6, 7, and 8 D-glucose units, respectively. Each of the glucose units are in the rigid C1 chair conformation and are linked by α 1,4 bonds. This geometry gives the cyclodextrin the shape of a hollow truncated cone with the wider side formed by the secondary 2- and 3-hydroxy groups and the narrower side by the primary 6-hydroxy group. The most characteristics property of the cyclodextrin is their ability to form inclusion complexes with a wide range of guest moleculars. We syntheses per-6-substituted β-cyclodextrin derivatives and investigate structures, spectrospcopic properties. The substituted materials are piperidine, piperazin, morphorine. The synthetic compound showed a good solubility than natural β cyclodextrin in organic solvents such as methylene chloride, methanol, ethanol, etc.

Inclusion complex of omeprazol with β-cyclodextrin and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin were prepared by coprecipitation and freeze-drying method respectively. Effects of these inclusion complex on RBCs were monitored with a spectrophotometer by the method of Kahan et al. and the mutagenic activity based on the Ames plate incorporation test in the presence and absence of liver microsomal enzyme(S9 fraction) using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The RBCs hemolysis and mutagenic activity of these complex were not detected.

Inclusion complex formation of octyldimethyl p-aminobenzoate with β-cyclodextrinin aqueous solution and in the solid state was studied by the solubility method, spectroscopic (UV, FT-IR) and X-ray diffractornetry. The solid complex of octyldimethyl p-aminobenzoate with β-cyclodextrin was obtained in molar ratio of 1:2 (guest/host). A spatial relationship between host and guest molecule was clearly reflected in the magnitude of the apparent stability constant (K') and in the stoichiometry of the inclusion complex. Furthermore, a typical type Bs phase-solubility diagram was obtained for octyldimethyl p-aminobenzoate and β-cyclodextrin in water at 25℃. The results indicated that the solubility of the guest molecule was higher by the formation of β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex.
