A selective method of high performance liquid chromatography with UV detector has been applied to determine 4 tetracycline antibiotics in the animal food, simultaneously. The targets were chlortetracycline (CTC), doxycycline (DC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and tetracycline (TC) that are used routinely in veterinary medicine for prevention and control of disease. Food samples were beef, pork, chicken, milk, whole egg, flatfish (Limanda yokohamae), jacopever (Sebastes hubbsi), seabream (Chrysophrys major), eel (Anguilla japonica) and lobster (Hommarus americanus). After extracting food samples with 20% trichloroacetic acid and McIlvaine buffer, they were purified by a $C_18$ SPE cartridge with 0.01M methanolic oxalic acid solution. The concentrated residue was re-dissolved in methanol, filtered, cleaned up and analyzed on a $C_18$ column. The mobile phase was a mixture of 0.01M oxalic acid and acetonitrile with a gradient ratio from 85:15 to 60:40. The UV wavelength was 365 nm. The overall recoveries were ranged from 71% to 98% and the limit of detections were 0.022 for CTC, 0.012 for DC and OTC and 0.009 mg/kg for TC at signal/noise > 3, respectively. As results, CTC, DC and TC were not detected in all selected food samples, however, OTC was detected in meat and fishes. The determined level of OTC was 0.04 ppm for pork, 0.17 ppm for flatfish and 0.05 and 0.08 ppm for jacopever, that were within the Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) in the food.

Dental epithelial and mesenchymal cells that form the teeth undergo dynamic changes in cell cycle during tooth development and morphogenesis. Although proliferation has been known as a key event during odontogenesis, the cell cycle phases and their relations with the complicated molecular mechanisms of tooth development are not fully understood yet. This study comparatively examined the expression patterns of Ki-67, cyclin A, and cyclin D1 during tooth development in the mouse incisor and molar in order to identify the cell-cycle characteristics during odontogenesis. We found that Ki-67 and cyclin A were expressed in the proliferating cells in the dental epithelial and mesenchymal tissues at the bud, cap and bell stages. Cycln D1 showed distinct expression in the incisor odontoblast region and the enamel knot, in which Ki-67 nor cyclin A was expressed. Our results provide specific information on the cell cycle phases during tooth development that may provide clues to relate them with the complex odontogenic mechanisms. Furthermore, we suggest that our findings enlightened the previous studies on the incisor odontoblasts and the enamel knot during tooth development.

테트라싸이클린에 의한 치아 변색은 심미성을 고려한 임상 치료시 커다란 난제로 남아 있다. 본 연구는 백서 치아에 테트라싸이클린을 주입하여 야기되는 색상과 구조적인 변화도를 측정하여 향후 연구에 기초자료를 제공하기 위해 시행되었다. 24 마리의 백서를 각기 8 마리씩 3 군으로 분류하여 대조군은 정상적인 사육을 식염수군은 TC군과 동량의 식염수를 주사하였으며 TC군은 12 ml에 용해시킨 60 mg의 테트라싸이클린을 복강내로 2 주간 주입하였다. 최종 주입후 1 주간 정상 사육한 다음 cervical dislocation법에 의해 희생시켜 시편을 채득한 후 각 치아를 횡단하여 실물현미경과 FlexCam을 이용하여 컴퓨터에 영상을 저장한 다음 색 변화량을 Adobe Photoshop으로 측정하였으며 구조변화는 주사전자 현미경을 이용하였다. 치아색 변화량의 유의성 검정은 ANOVA와 Scheffe test를 이용하였으며 본 실험 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 각 군의 $a^*$ 수치는 대조군 -6.12 (1.18), 식염수군 -8.00 (1.33), TC군 -18.56 (2.52)로 나타났으며 $b^*$ 수치는 대조군 1.12 (2.13), 식염수군 1.62 (1.45), TC군 28.67 (5.18)을 보였다. 즉 테트라싸이클린에 의해 $a^*$와 $b^*$의 수치가 유의성있게 (p<0.01) 초록색과 노란색 방향으로 변화하였다. 2. 테트라싸이클린에 의해 치경부 법랑질 외면이 검게 변색되었으며 울퉁불퉁한 양태로 변화되었다. 그러나 법랑소주의 형태, 방향등은 차이를 보이지 않았다. 3. 각 군간 상아세관의 수, 방향, 크기등이 차이가 없었다. 치수측에서의 관찰결과 대조군과 식염수군에서는 상아세관들의 입구가 크고 명확하게 보인 반면 TC군에서는 입구가 좁고 부분적으로 막힌 양태도 관찰되었다.

This study was designed to investigate the effects of swimming and minocycline on motor function recovery and Bcl-2 expression after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. After operation, neurological motor behavior test (BBB scale) on days 1, 4, 7, 10, and 14 were tested. Western blot and immunohistochemical assessment (Bcl-2) were performed on day 14. BBB scale started to show a statistically significant difference on day 7 (p<0.05). On day 14, it showed the most significant (p<0.05) difference. Expression of Bcl-2 increased in all the experimental groups. In particular, the highest expression of Bcl-2 appeared in the swimming and minocycline groups. Based on these results, minocycline and swimming were the most effective factors in the motor behavior function and immunohistochemical assessment of SCI rats.

The overall objective of this study is to develop the engineering-friendly-methodology which can investigate the fate of antibiotic resistance in environment microbial community. For this purpose, effective concentration (EC) concept was adopted with cultural based method which is currently used in engineering practice. When a tetracyline antibiotic was present as selective pressure agent among microbial community, activated sludge, the $EC_{50}$ and/or $EC_{90}$ of tetracycline in microbial community were statistically increased compared to control, especially higher growth rate and organic loading conditions of SBRs. Therefore, these results strongly suggested that the continuous monitoring of EC in microbial community can be used for characterizing the fate of tetracycline resistance community in environmental samples.

This study was conducted to monitor residues of 10 veterinary drugs in food products. Various veterinary drugs were examined including enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, norfloxacin, oxolinic acid, amoxicillin, ampicillin, oxytetracycline, tetracycline, chlortetracycline, and doxycycline in beef, pork, egg, chicken, eel, flatfish, and rockfish obtained from 6 different regions (Seoul, Incheon, Daejeon, Gwangju, Daegu, Busan). Residues were detected in 21 (6.5%) samples out of 321 samples. In particular, 2 (1.0%) livestock samples had detected residues among 203 products, and 19 (16.1%) aquaculture samples had residues detected among 118 products. The most frequently detected drug residues in aquaculture products were oxytetracycline and amoxicillin, but the levels were mostly below the MRL (Maximum Residue Limit). In only one flatfish sample, amoxicillin was found at a level higher than the MRL (0.05 mg/kg). In livestock products, residues of most veterinary drugs were not detected. But enrofloxacin was detected in 2 chicken (Korean name: Ogolgae) samples at a higher level than the MRL (0.1 mg/kg as the sum of ciprofloxacin).

A simple prepared paste electrode (PE) of DNA immobilized on a carbon nanotube was utilized for monitoring the antibacterial agent oxytetracycline (OTC), using square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). Given these conditions, SWASV and CV working ranges were observed within 1-10 ngL-1 OTC. In the SWASV and CV for OTC concentrations of 0.1 mgL-1, the relative standard deviations (n=15) were 0.068 and 0.067, respectively. At the optimized condition, the detection limit was found to be 0.4 ngL-1 OTC. This method was applied to the hatchery fish tissue.
