3.DISTRIBUTION OF SELENIUM ASSOCIATED WITH BIOCHEMICAL FRACTIONS IN BLUE MUSSEL AND BAY SCALLOP
Chinese Journal of Marine Drugs 1994;0(01):-
Concentration,biochemical fractions of selenium have been investigated in the tissue organs of Blue mussel ( Mytilus edulis ) and Bay scallop ( Argopecten trradiaus ). It is found by determination that the selenium concentration in the mantle is higher than in other tissue organs of the Blue mussel and Bay scallop. Selenium is predominantely associated with amino acids and proteins. 64. 4 per cents to 70. 4 per cents of selenium was associated with insoluble proteins in the mantle of the Blue mussel and Bay scallop.

Fraction F3-3-3 of glycosaminoglycan was isolated from the leftover bits of Bay scallop Argopecten irradiaus . Infrared spectra of F3-3-3 was similar to that of heparin. Agarose gel electrophoresis of this fraction was performed in the system of barbital buffer (0. 06 mol/L,pH 8. 6). It was found that F3-3-3 showed single band in the electrophoresis. Compared with the agarose gel electrophoresis of standard glycosaminoglycan, such as heparin, hyaluronic acid and chondroitin 6-sulfate, it indicated that the relative migration rate of the fraction was close to that of heparin.

The glycosaminoglycan (GAG), isolated from Bay scallop Argopectenirradians, contains neutral monosaccharides besides hexosamines and hexosuronic acids. The monosaccharides obtained by alcoholysis with HCI-methylalcohol from the sample of GAG was trimethylsilanized with hexamethyldisilan and chlortrimethylsilan (HMDS ' TMCS = 2 : 1). And the trimethylsilyl derivatives of monosaccharides was determined by gas chro-matography. Compared the gas chromatography of the sample with that of standard monosaccharides, it was found that the GAG of the Bay scallop contains five neutral monosaccharides, viz glucose, galactose, xylose, fucose and rhamnose.

The effects of D-polymannuronic sulfate (DPS) on the norepinephrine (NA) or potassium chloride (KCL)-induced contraction of rat aortic rings were studied in this paper. The results showed that DPS at the final concentration of Img ? L-1 inhibited the contraction of aortic rings e-voked by NA or KCL and shift doseresponse curves for NA or KCL to the right in a non-parallel fa-sion and depressed their maximal response, implicating that DPS afforded the noncompetitive antagonism on contraction of rat aortic rings induced by NA or KCL. This finding suggested that DPS exerted an inhibitory action of potential-dependent calcium channel and that of receptor-operated calcium channel in vascular smooth muscle.

Objective To study the antifatigue effect of sea cucumber exstract.Methods According to the experimental methods of animal antifatigue, three doses of sea cucumber extract were applied to mice and their antifatigue effects were compared statistically.Result 300 mg?kg -1 ?d -1 sea cucumber extract could significantly prolong pole climbing time in mice, increase the reserves of liver glycogen and the content of blood glucose, decrease the contents of blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and blood lactic acid after strenuous exercise. Conclusion The preliminary study showed that the sea cucumber exstract has some antifatigue effects.

Objective The anti-UV-B radiation mechanism of UV-B tolerance strain KFS-9 was studied from the profile of metabolites.Methods The compounds were separated by column chromatography and their structures were elucidated based on GC-MS,LC-TOF-MS,EI-MS and NMR analyses.Results Three unsaturated fatty acids(identified as 9-hexadecenoic acid,9,12-octadecadienoic acid and 11-octadecenoic acid) and 1,2-benzenedicarboxylic acid able to absorb ultraviolet were isolated from the petroleum ether extract of the fermentation liquid of Pantoea agglomerans KFS-9.Fraction(Ⅱ) was isolated from the ethyl acetate extract and was composed of 2,3-butanediol and a series of high unsaturated aroma compounds.Fraction(Ⅱ) had a wide absorption peak,and it could protect E.coli from UV-B damage in some sense.Conclusion Strain KFS-9 produced metabolites that were able to absorb UV to build a natural barrier and so improved the tolerance to UV radiation.The UV-B radiation protection test to the E.coli also showed fraction(Ⅱ) was not the only protector,and there definitely existedother materials and mechanism to protect the strain.
