Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for determining dormancy awakening of Osmia cornifrons and, more specifically, to a method for quantitatively measuring the dormancy awakening of Osmia cornifrons by measuring oxygen consumption of Osmia cornifrons using a biological respirometer. The present invention provides the method for quantitatively measuring the dormancy awakening of Osmia cornifrons, thereby adequately supplying Osmia cornifrons in a time of need.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for pre-treating Allomyrina dichotoma to use the Allomyrina dichotoma as edible or medicinal materials and edible and medicinal Allomyrina dichotoma or a larva thereof which is pretreated by the method to have an anti-inflammatory effect. The method for pre-treating edible and medicinal Allomyrina dichotoma or a larva thereof having an anti-inflammatory effect, of the present invention, is characterized by comprising: a first step of feeding Allomyrina dichotoma or a larva thereof on a sterilized feed; a second step of starving the Allomyrina dichotoma or larva thereof fed on the sterilized feed; and a third step of sterilizing the starved Allomyrina dichotoma or larva thereof. According to the present invention, in order to use Allomyrina dichotoma or a larva thereof as edible or medicinal materials, the pre-treatment conditions of Allomyrina dichotoma was established to eliminate bacteria and remove a unique odor of Allomyrina dichotoma, and Allomyrina dichotoma was confirmed as a safe material without cytotoxicity. As a result of treating macrophagocytes with Allomyrina dichotoma, it was confirmed that Allomyrina dichotoma reduced the generation of inflammation related cytokine and inflammation mediators in the macro-phagocytes, and thus Allomyrina dichotoma can be useful in the preparation of edible and medicinal Allomyrina dichotoma and as anti-inflammatory medicinal materials or health food.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for preventing or treating dementia comprising an extract of the mealworm (Tenebrio molitor), particularly to a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating dementia and a food composition for preventing or alleviating demensia, comprising the extract of the mealworm as an active ingredient. According to the present invention, the extract of the mealworm inhibits activity of beta-secretase (BACE1) and thus is effectively used to manufacture a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating dementia or a food composition for preventing or alleviating dementia.
