The effect of the ionization energy on the common house mosquito, Culex pipiens, pupa was investigated as the hatching rate, longevity and detoxification enzyme activity. The longevity of adult emerging in the pupa decreased depending on the exposure dose of Gray (Gy) in Cx. pipiens. The hatching rate of the F1 generation egg derived from Cx. pipiens pupa treated up to 70 Gy did not show any difference with the control, but the eggs did not hatch 100% at 120 Gy exposure. These results showed that Cx. pipiens was sterilized at 120 Gy. Several detoxifying enzyme (GST, non-specific esterase and MFO) activity of Cx. pipiens adult emerged from pupa irradiated with 120 Gy was investigated. The difference in activity was observed in female than in male irradiated with electron beam. As a result, electron beam irradiation seems to affect enzyme activity as well as induce infertility of Cx. pipiens.

허브의 일종인 B. sarmienti를 이용하여 숙취 해소 음료를 개발하고 그에 따른 알콜 대사 및 항산화 효소에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 알코올을 섭취한 쥐에 B. sarmienti 음료군(BSP)을 투여 한 경우 타사 제품군인 PC 그리고 B. sarmienti만을 제외한 음료군인 NBS보다 더 뛰어난 알코올 분해능 및 ADH, ALDH에서도 뛰어난 활성을 보였다. 또한 생화학적 검사를 통해 안전성을 확인하였으며, ALP, ALT 그
