  • A relationship $(T_c = -17.869C^2+1840.2C-46623)$ between Curie Temperature$(T_c)$ and (C), $Li_2O$ mole percent(%) was established from the measurement results of Curie temperature $(T_c)$) analysed by DTA(Differential Thermal Analysis) in the range from 48.50 to 49.00 $Li_2O$ mole %. Congruent melt composition of $LiTaO_3$ single crystal was to be 48.65 $Li_2O$ mole % and its Curie temperature was also determined to be $610{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ from the results of Curie temperature difference, ${\Delta}T (T_{c(Top)}-T{_c(Tail)})$ of Czochralski grown $LiTaO_3$ crystals and the distribution coefficient(k). The k was calculated from $LiO_2$ mole ratio of initial melt to final melt and initial crystal to final crystal in the range from 48.60 to 48.70 $Li_2O$ mole %.

  • The phase transition temperatures of CsCoCl3·2H2O crystals are investigated via differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Three endothermic peaks at temperatures of 370 K (=TC1), 390 K (=TC2), and 416 K (=TC3) were observed for phase transitions from CsCoCl3·2H2O to CsCoCl3·1.5H2O, to CsCoCl3·H2O, and then to CsCoCl3·0.5H2O, respectively. In addition, the spin-lattice relaxation time T in the rotating frame and T1 in the laboratory frame as well as changes in chemical shifts for 1H and 133Cs near TC1 were found to be temperature dependent. Our analyses results indicated that the changes of chemical shifts, T, and T1 are associated with structural phase transitions near temperature TC1. The changes of chemical shifts, T, and T1 near TC1 were associated with structural phase transitions, owing to the changes in the symmetry of the structure formed of H2O and Cs+ ions. Consequently, the structural symmetry in CsCoCl3·2H2O crystals based on temperature is discussed by the environments of their H and Cs nuclei.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the effect of persimmon peel on the physicochemical properties of ground pork stored at $4^{\circ}C$ for 10 days. Four types of ground pork were evaluated: T0 without dried persimmon peel powder, and T1 with 0.3%, T2 with 0.7%, and T3 with 1.0% dried persimmon peel powder. The pH increased during storage, with the pH of T3 being the lowest (p<0.01). The L-value and b-value were not significantly changed, but the a-value decreased during storage. On the 10th day of storage, the a-values were significantly higher for T2 and T3 than for T0 and T1 (p<0.001). TBARS significantly increased during storage, with lower values for T2 and T3 than for T0 and T1 (p<0.001). DPPH free radical scavenging activity decreased during storage, with T0 having the lowest value (p<0.001). The VBN content increased during storage, and the VBN content of T0 was the highest at the 10th day (p<0.05). The water-holding capacity decreased and cooking loss increased during storage. Hardness and chewiness increased, while springiness and gumminess decreased during storage. The results of this study showed that the addition of persimmon peel during the process of making ground pork had antioxidant effects that maintained redness and physical quality. A 0.7% addition was the most appropriate.

  • This study was performed to evaluate differences of T cell subsets according to the injection period of recombinant mouse $interferon-{\gamma}{\;}(IFN-{\gamma}$ in acute Toxoplasma gondii infection. Each mouse was infected intraperitoneally with 100 cysts of Beverley strain T. gondii, and injuten with $5{\;}{\times}{\;}10^4$ units of $IFN-{\gamma}$ every other day two tares. The percentage of Thy-1, 2 cells and L3T4/Ly-2 cell ratio were significantly increased in the mice that received two doses of $IFN-{\gamma}$ on days 2 and 0 before infection, or days 0 and 2 after infection. The percentage of Ly-2 cells decreased in the $IFN-{\gamma}$ injected groups at th\ulcorner 3rd and 4th week after infection. The results suggest that administration of $IFN-{\gamma}$ to T gonnii-infected mice improves the changed population of T cell subsets to a normal state, especially when $IFN-{\gamma}$ was infected just after the infection.

  • This study was performed to investigate the change of the body surface temperature during socialization of weaning pigs. A total of 108 piglets (Landrace 60 and Yorkshire 48) aged 31 (${\pm}1.1$) day was used for this study. Experiment was designed as follows; familiar group (T1), randomly mixed with unfamiliar piglets (T2), mixed based on weight of unfamiliar piglet (T3). The transport and mixing of pigs were performed at 10:00, and then body surface temperature was taken by thermo-graphic camera after 4 hours (14:00). Average surface temperature and hot-spot-temperature, which is the hottest spot of the body surface, were analyzed using Testo IRsoft 3.1 software. Average temperature of body surface were 36.0, 38.2, and 37.5 in T1, T2, and T3, respectively. Average of body surface temperature in T2 and T3 were higher (p<0.001) than T1, and average temperature of body surface of T3 was greater (p<0.001) than that of T2. The hot-spot-temperature of T1, T2, and T3 were 38.7, 39.5, and 39.6, respectively. The hot-spot-temperature of T2 (p<0.01) and T3 (p<0.001) were significantly higher than that of T1. Above results demonstrate that grouping unfamiliar pigs leads to increase in the body temperature possibly by pigs aggressive behavior during social conflict. By the result on average body temperature, this study suggests that the mixing with similar body weight would increase the struggle time and frequency.

  • An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of a microbial enzyme (Roxazyme-$G^{(R)}$), a multicarbohydrases preparation, supplementation to the wheat-based layer diets. Diets were formulated to include different levels of wheat replacing yellow corn on isocaloric and isonitrogenous basis. The energy value of wheat in the enzyme supplemented diets was adjusted (spec-modified) to have 5% more ME than the wheat in diets without enzyme. A total of 864 Hy-$Line^{(R)}$ brown layers were assigned to 4 dietary treatments: 10% wheat (T1), 25% wheat (T2), 25% wheat (spec-modified)+ 0.01 % Roxazyme-$G^{(R)}$ (T3), and all wheat (spec-modified)+0.01% Roxazyme-$G^{(R)}$ (T4). Hen-day egg productions of T1 and T4 were significantly (p < 0.05) greater than that of T2 but not different from T3. Hen-housed egg production of T4 was significantly (p < 0.01) greater than those of T1 and T3 but not different from T2. Egg weights of T1 and T2 were significantly (p < 0.0 1) greater than that of T4. Feed consumption of T2 was significantly (p < 0.01) lower than other treatments. Feed conversion ratio (feed/egg mass) was not significantly different among treatments. Eggshell thickness of T1 was significantly (p < 0.01) greater than other treatments but ratio of broken eggs was not significantly different among treatments. Haugh unit of T4 was significantly greater (p < 0.05) than that of T2. Egg yolk color was significantly (p < 0.01) influenced by treatments in which enzyme treatment potentiated the yolk pigmentation. It was concluded that a multi-carbohydrases supplementation enables complete replacement of yellow com with wheat without loss of productivity and major egg quality parameters.

  • The γδ T cells are unconventional lymphocytes that function in both innate and adaptive immune responses against various intracellular and infectious stresses. The γδ T cells can be exploited as cancer-killing effector cells since γδ TCRs recognize MHC-like molecules and growth factor receptors that are upregulated in cancer cells, and γδ T cells can differentiate into cytotoxic effector cells. However, γδ T cells may also promote tumor progression by secreting IL-17 or other cytokines. Therefore, it is essential to understand how the differentiation and homeostasis of γδ T cells are regulated and whether distinct γδ T cell subsets have different functions. Human γδ T cells are classified into Vδ2 and non-Vδ2 γδ T cells. The majority of Vδ2 γδ T cells are Vγ9δ2 T cells that recognize pyrophosphorylated isoprenoids generated by the dysregulated mevalonate pathway. In contrast, Vδ1 T cells expand from initially diverse TCR repertoire in patients with infectious diseases and cancers. The ligands of Vδ1 T cells are diverse and include the growth factor receptors such as endothelial protein C receptor. Both Vδ1 and Vδ2 γδ T cells are implicated to have immunotherapeutic potentials for cancers, but the detailed elucidation of the distinct characteristics of 2 populations will be required to enhance the immunotherapeutic potential of γδ T cells. Here, we summarize recent progress regarding cancer immunology of human γδ T cells, including their development, heterogeneity, and plasticity, the putative mechanisms underlying ligand recognition and activation, and their dual effects on tumor progression in the tumor microenvironment.
