In order to study the influence of spermatozoa and testicular fluid on the component and composition of proteins in epididymal fluid of mice, histological differentiation of testis and epididymis were observed during sexual maturation, and the proteins in epididymal fluids collected according to the characteristics of lumination were analyzed by electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). In 10 day-old mouse, both of,testis and epididymis were undifferentiated. In 20 day-old mouse, epididymis was primitively luminated, but testis was not. In 35 day-old mouse, both of testis and epididymis were luminated and eaithdymal epithelium was differentiated into principal cells and clear cells. Spermatozoa were not transfered into epididymis yet. However, in 80 day-old mouse, both of festis and epididymis were fully differentiated and spermatozoa were transfered into epididymis. In electrophoretic paftem of proteins in epididymal fluid, a total of 28 kinds of proteins were identified, which were different from those of their sera. 12 kinds out of these proteins were epididymal specific protein(ESP) detected in epididymal fluid only, and the other 16 kinds(TEP) were also detected in testicular fluid. The proteins in epididymal fluid changed during sexual maturation and 3 kinds of the proteins changed quantitatively according to epididymal regions in adult. It may be concluded from the above results that the component and composition of the proteins in epididymal fluid changed by the influx of testicular fluid including spermatozoa into epididymis and regulation of the protein synthesis, secretion and/or absorption by the epididymal epithelium. Therefore it is strongly suggested that ESP and TEP in epididymal fluid play somehow significant roles on the maturation of epididymal spermatozoa.

The problem has been pointed out that the domestic design response spectrum does not reflect site amplification, particularly in the high frequency bands, including the fact that site specific response spectrum from the observed ground motions appears relatively higher than design response spectrum. Among various methods, this study applied H/V spectral ratio of ground motion for estimating site amplification. This method, originated from S waves and Rayleigh waves, recently has been extended to Coda waves and background noise for estimating site amplification. For limited time of periods, 4 electric substation sites had operated seismic stations at two separate locations (bedrock and borehole) within each substation site. H/V spectral ratio of S wave, Coda wave, and background noise, was applied to 36 accelerations of 3 macro earthquakes (Odaesan, Jeju and Gongju earthquakes), larger than magnitude 3.4. observed simultaneously at each bedrock location within 4 electric substation sites. Site amplifications at the bedrock location of 4 sites were compared among S wave, Coda wave energy, and background noise, and then compared to the previous results from the borehole location data. The site classification was also tried using resonancy frequency information at each site and location. The results suggested that all the electric substation sites showed similar site amplification patterns among S wave, Coda wave, and background noise. Each station showed its own characteristics of site amplification property in low, high and specific resonance frequency ranges. Comparison of this study to other results using different method can give us much more information about dynamic amplification of domestic sites characteristics and site classification.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the stress concentration and distribution whether restoring the cavity or not while restoring with metal ceramic crown on tooth with abfraction lesion using finite element analysis. Materials and methods: Maxillary first premolar was selected and made a total of 10 finite element model. Model 1 was natural tooth; Model 2 was tooth with metal ceramic crown restoration which margin was positioned above 2 mm from CEJ; Model 3 was tooth with metal ceramic crown restoration which margin was positioned on CEJ; Model 4 was natural tooth which has abfraction lesion; Model 5 and 6 had abfraction lesion and the other condition was same as model 2 and 3, respectively; Model 7 was natural tooth which had abfraction lesion restored with composite resin; Model 8 and 9 was tooth with metal ceramic crown after restoring on abfraction lesion with composite resin; Model 10 was restored tooth on abfraction lesion with composite resin and metal ceramic crown restoration which margin is positioned on lower border of abfraction lesion. Load A and Load B was also designed. Von Mises value was evaluated on each point. Results: Under load A or load B, on tooth with abfraction lesion, stress was concentrated on the apex of lesion. Under load A or load B, on tooth that abfraction lesion was restored with composite resin, the stress value was reduced on the apex. Conclusion: In case of abfraction lesion was restored with composite resin, the stress was concentrated on the apical border of restored cavity regardless of marginal position. It was favorable to place crown margin on the enamel for restoring with metal ceramic crown.

The probabilistic model was developed to give a spatial simlation of precipitation series to solve the problem of future need of water resources. The simulation of daily precipitation series at the sub-base stations was induced from the spatial structure of rainfall occurrence probability between the base station and the sub-base stations in the watershed. In this study Hadong was chosen as the base station in Seomjin river basin and Imsil, Boseong, Soonchang, Dongbok, and Gurye were also selected as the sub-base stations. The results of this study are as follows; 1) The separation technique of spatial precipitation state showed effectiveness in the spatial simulation method because the occurrence probability by each precipitation state (Wet-Wet, Dry-Wet, Wet-Dry, and Dry- Dry system) represented the stable value. 2) The daily precipitation series of the sub-base stations which were simulated from those of the base station showed that the simulated annual mean precipitations were similar to the observed data, but the precipitations in summer were decreased slightly. 3) The correlogram and power spectrum of the simulated monthly precipitation for the sub-base stations showed those of the observed sample with good agreement.

In this paper, we propose a subpixel shift estimation method using phase correlation with a local region for the registration of noisy images. Phase correlation is commonly used to estimate the subpixel shift between images, which is derived from analyzing shifted and downsampled images. However, when the images are affected by additive white Gaussian noise and aliasing artifacts, the estimation error is increased. Thus, instead of using the whole image, the proposed method uses a specific local region that is less affect by noises. In addition, to improve the estimation accuracy, iterative phase correlation is applied between selected local regions rather than using a fitting function. the restricted range is determined by analyzing the maximum peak and the two adjacent values of the inverse Fourier transform of the normalized cross power spectrum. In the experiments, the proposed method shows higher accuracy in registering noisy images than the other methods. Thus, the edge-sharpness and clearness in the super-resolved image is also improved.

The purpose of this study was to investigate effects of 12-weeks aerobic exercise and taekwondo exercise on brain wave activation and brain-derived neurotrophic factors in undergraduate male students. Twenty four male subjects participated in this study. They were separated into a Control group(CG; n=8), Aerobic training group (ATG; n=8) and Taekwondo training group(TTG; n=8). ATG and TTG participated in Aerobic exercise training and Taekwondo exercise training for 12 weeks, 50~80 minutes per day, 3 times a week at 60~80% HRR respectively. All data were analyzed by repeated measures two-way ANOVA. As a result, there were no significant differences in the body composition and brain activation in all groups. However BDNF increased significantly after 12 weeks in the aerobic training groups(ATG). It is suggest that 12 weeks of regular Taekwondo exercise training did not statistically affect brain activation and neurotrophic factors in undergraduate students.

The objects of this study were to estimate gene frequencies of the bovine growth hormone(bGH), and to investigate the relationship between the bGH polymorphism and semen characteristics in Hanwoo bull. One hundred nine heads of Hanwoo bulls were used to identify bGH genotypes by the PCR-RFLP, followed by digestion with Alu I restriction enzyme. The frequencies of leucine(Leu) and Valine(Val) alleles were 0.88 and 0.12, respectively. Observed number of LL, LV and VV genotypes were 83, 25 and 1, respectively. Semen characteristics(semen volume, sperm concentration) were analyzed by GH genotypes in 25,559 ejaculates of 109 heads. Although bGH genotypes showed no significant effects on semen characteristics, those of bulls with VV genotype were tended to be lower than those of other bulls with LL or LV genotypes. And, in 1998, total sperm number(60.47${\times}$$10^8$) of VV bulls were significantly lower(P<0.05) than those(86.21${\sim}$92.22${\times}$$10^8$) of other genotypes bulls. This results provide that the VV bull in bGH locus may be worse, under the LL and LV bulls on semen characteristics. However, the number of examined VV bulls was only one and further investigations are needed to confirm the results.

Mastitis is an inflammation of the mammary gland that develops as a response to pathogenic microorganisms. Somatic cell count (SCC) and bacteriological analysis are the most accepted tools to determine udder health. This study evaluated the effects of intra-mammary gland infusion of silver ion against clinical mastitis in Holstein cows. Silver ion (20 ${\mu}g$/ml) was infused through the intra-mammary gland in quarters having clinical mastitis and milk was collected to determine SCC, and levels of lactoferrin and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Silver ion infusion decreased udder inflammation, firmness and swelling, and reduced clots, BSA, lactoferrin and SCC in milk. However, milk yield and circulating blood cells remained unchanged. The silver ion-mediated reductions of BSA and SCC indicate reduced inflammation and bacterial activity in silver ion-treated mammary glands in Holsteins with mastitis, which may be exploited in a curative strategy.

This study was investigated the developmental potential of bovine embryos following nuclear transfer with bovine fetal fibroblasts (BFF). BFF were isolated from a male 45-day-old-fetus. Non-starved BFF labeled with MitoTracker were transferred into perivitelline space of enucleated oocytes. BFF-oocyte units were fused by electric pulse, and then fused oocytes were activated with calcium ionophore A23187 and subsequently 6-dimethylaminopurine (6-DMAP). The resulting zygotes were placed into CRlaa bovine embryo culture medium. Transfer of the nucleus into enucleated oocyte led to premature chromosome condensation, swelling and pronucleus formation. Remodeled oocytes were developed to the mitotic and 2-cell stage at 18 to 26 h after nuclear transfer. The incidence of in vitro development to the blastocyst stages was 21% of fused oocytes. Mitochondria of BFF eliminated rapidly and were not detected at 8 h after fusion. These results suggest that BFF can be successfully reprogrammed in enucleated bovine oocytes, and that reconstructed embryos can develop to the blastocyst stage.
