Anti-inflammatory effects of sulfur-fed duck extract on colitis induced by 2.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) were examined in male Balb/c mice. Animals were divided into eight groups: normal (0.1 mL of PBS without 2.5% DSS), control (0.1 mL of PBS with 2.5% DSS), SD-H (3 mL/kg of high sulfur-fed duck extract), SD-L (1 mL/kg of low sulfur-fed duck extract), GD-H (3 mL/kg of high general duck extract), GD-L (1 mL/kg of low general duck extract), GC-H (3 mL/kg of high general chicken extract), and GC-L (1 mL/kg of low general chicken extract). Mice were fed PBS or six different doses of extracts (sulfur-fed duck, general duck, and chicken), once daily for 14 days. Colitis was induced from day 7 to 14 via the administration of 2.5% DSS in drinking water. The colon length was significantly shortened in mice compared to the control group. The administration of SD-H, SD-L, and GD-L increased colon length and decreased histological colon injury from DSS-induced colitis. However, chicken extracts did not recover any clinical sign of the colitis. SD-L significantly suppressed not only the concentrations of IL-$1{\beta}$, IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$, IL-17A, and IL-12 in serum but also the mRNA expressions of IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$, iNOS and COX-2 in DSS-treated colon tissues (P<0.05). The administration of SD-H suppressed the concentrations of IL-6 in serum and the mRNA expressions of IL-6, iNOS, and COX-2 in colon tissues. Administration of GD-L suppressed the concentrations of IL-6, TNF-${\alpha}$, and IL-17A in serum and the mRNA expressions of IL-6, iNOS, and COX-2 in colon tissues. The inhibitory effects of sulfur-fed duck extracts were effective at a dose of 1 mL/kg. Our results indicate that sulfur-fed duck extracts may possess anti-inflammatory effects on DSS-induced colitis mice.

These surveys were conducted to estimate the winter bird population inhabiting in the estuary of Nakdong River by unit distances, by unit times, by sections and by observation points. The results were summarized as follows: 1) A total of 70,032 birds were observed, which composed of 82 species under 27 families. 2) An average of 2,103.06 individuals per kilometer was observed and 23,344.00 individuals per hour. Anatidae showed the most dominance (65.13% of the total), followed by Scolopacidae(14.55%), and Laridae(7.28%). 3) The present population by areas were observed as follows; 61.8% of the total in the tideland and swamp, 31.9% in the surface of water, and 6.4% in the air and land, respectively. 4) Among the five sections, the greatest population was observed in section 3 which figured 22,852 individuals (30.0%), and the least in section 4 (9.8%). 5) In this observation point, six species such as Anas platyrhynchos, Tadorna tadorna, Anser albifrons, Aythya ferina, Calidris alpina and Larus crassirostris were the most dominant birds inhabiting which reached 83.1% of the total.

Wetland ecosystem is one of the most productive one in nature. Wetland is an areas in which transit between terrestrial and stream ecosystem. This study aims at identifying fanua (birds, mammals, amphibians and reptiles) in urban stream of Dorim. A total of 3 orders, 6 families and 9 species for mammals; 17 families, 30 species of birds; 3 families and 4 species of amphibians and 2 families and 3 species of reptiles were reported. This is a through study for species identification in Dorim steams. This study suggested that various organisms were found around Dorim stream and this study will better serve as a stepping stone for wetland restoration and establishment of biotope where organisms breed and survive.

Mallard and Spot-billed ducks that are typical wintering water birds use the wide rice field in the center of the water system as a wintering ground. I try to figure out the daily movement distance from Home-Range to wintering ground for mallard and spot-billed ducks in Mangyunggang, Dongjingang where located in central region. In 2015 wintering period by using a Cannon-net, I attached WT-300 to 5 mallard and 5 spot-billed ducks. Daily movement distance is an overall average 0.89km, the largest distance was 31.09km. Daily movement distance of mallard was 0.97km, the largest distance was 28.78km. Daily movement distance of Spot-billed ducks was 0.80km, the largest distance was 33.39km. Home-Range analysis is used by the SHP files that is compatible with GIS and ArcGIS 9.0 Animal Movement Extension, it was analyzed using the Minimum Convex Polygon Method (MCP) and the Kernel Density Estimation (KDE). The behavior rights of two kinds of ducks was $490.34km^2$ by Minimum Convex Polygon Method (MCP) ($SD=311.20km^2N=10$), an important habitats Kernel Density Estimation (KDE 50%) was $42.24km^2$. Home-Range of Mallard (MCP) was $568.02km^2$, it is wider than home-range(MCP) of spot-billed duck $397.13km^2$ relatively, the core habitats of mallard is $53.05km^2$, it is wider than mallard's core habitats(KDE 50%) $29.26km^2$ relatively.

전국이‘조류 독감’이라는 낯선 전염병으로 몸살을 앓고 있다. 오리와 닭을 키우는 농가와 유통산업이 무너지고 있을 뿐만 아니라, 일반인들도 혹시나 우리에게 치명적인 전염병으로 번지지 않을까 두려움에 떨고 있는 것이 사실이다. 1년 전에 광동에서 번지기 시작했던 SARS(급성 중증 호흡기 증후군)과 미국의 광우병 소식을 채 잊기도 전이니 당연한 일이다. 일부에서는 물질 문명에 너무 젖어서 자연을 무시해왔던 현대 인류에게 내린 자연의 보복이 시작된 것이라고 호들갑을 떨기도 하는 모양이다.

Amino acids of duck-meat in Jeon-nam have been analyzed by gas chromatography. Through this analysis, the following results were obtained. 1. The quantities of general components in duck-meat were determined $13.61%{\sim}21.19%$ protein, $17.32%{\sim}34.92%$ fat, $0.56%{\sim}1.09%$ ash, and $50.91%{\sim}65.72%$ moisture. 2. The quantities of protein amino acids in duck-meat were determined. 6.10% alanine. 2.75% valine, 7.13% glycine, 2.20% iso-leucine, 4.54% leucine, 4.90% proline, 5.80% threonine, 1.15% methionine, 3.20% hydroxy proline, 3.01% phenylalanine, 6.70% asparticacid, 12.71% glutamic acid, 4.95% lysine, 1.11% arginine, 5.60% histidine, 4.40% cystine+cystein, and serine and tyrosine in trace amount. 3. Except tryptophane, almost all the essential amino acids were analyzed.

Studies were carried out to investigate effects of temperature and photoperiod on diapause induction and of juvenile hormone III and 20-hydroxyecdysone treatment on diapausing adults of the alder leaf beetle, Agelastica coerulea Baly(Chrγsomelidae: Coleoptera). Its life cycle and ovarian development in adults were also observed. The beetle had one year life cycle with egg, larval, pupal and adult periods being 7-10, 19-21, 14-15 days and about 10 months, r respectively. All adults showed a diapause syndrome when the larvae were reared at $20^{\circ}C$ or $25^{\circ}C$ in combination of photoperiods of 16L/8D, 12L/12D, or 8L/16D. Their ovarioles did not s show any development of vitellogenesis before or during diapause and even when exposed at $15^{\circ}C$ after overwintering. When diapausing adults were treated with JH III they resumed feeding and laid several eggs and broke diapause condition temporally. But diapausing adults treated with 20-hydroxyecdysone did not show any response.

Among the diffuse-porous woods which arc dominant in Korea and used as construction materials due to their wood quality, ten species of six genus involving seven species of three genus in Betulaceae were studied on the radial variation of structural demenb. The species studied were Betula platyphylla var. japonica, B. ermanii, B. davurica, B. scstata, B. schmidtii, Carpinus laxifora, Alnus japonica, Prunus sargentii. Acer mono and Diospyros kaki. Wood fiber, vessel elements and ray increased rapidly in size from pith to a certain annual ring. After then the radial variation in size of the main structural elements seemed to be divided into three types; levelled off curve pattern indicating constant size(type I), continuously increasing curve pattern showing ever increase in size (type II) and parabolic curve pattern showing the gradual decrease after the maximum (type III), but the variation types by structural dements were different even in the same species. Based on the results from this study, it appears to be reasonable to consider the stabilized age of wood fiber, vessel elements and ray rather than considering wood fiber length in distinguishing mature woods from juvenile woods.
