The mudfish(Misgurnus anguillicaudatus) raising fed on hens excreta in order to study effects on production of animal feed resource. The raw hens excreta used for 2 years old mudfish diet during the 35 days and water in aquarium for mudfish was never exchanged during experimental period. Eight of 100L of aquarium. eight kg of mudfish and four of female korean native chicken were used this study. This study are divided according to the mudfish fed on commercial mudfish diet in the four of control group and fed on hens excreta in the four treatment group. The chemical composition was compared with commercial mudfish diet and hens excreta. In the both sample, crude protein contents was almost same. The crude fat and crude ash were higher in hens excreta than commercial mudfish diet. The growth performance of mudfish tend to high when fed hens excreta. There were no differences in contents of E. Coli and Salmonella and pH of water in aquariums between the groups. Mortality of mudfish tend to decrease when fed hens excreta. No problem with mudfish health was observed during the experimental period of 35 days. These results indicated that it is possible to raising mudfish fed on hens excreta only.

The yeast surface expression system, pCTXYN (6.8 kb), of Bacillus endoxylanase gene (xynB, 642 bp) was constructed and introduced into Saccharomyces cerevisiae EBY100 cell. The transformed yeast cell showing the highest endoxylanase activity was selected through the active staining of colonies grown on YPDG medium containing xylan. With the yeast transformant, EBY100/pCTXYN, grown on galactose containing medium, it was found that the endoxylanase was successfully displayed on the yeast cell surface and the xylooligosaccharides were efficiently produced from xylan. The most of endoxylanase activity was detected in the cell fraction and reached about 1.9 unit/mL after 48 h cultivation. The optimized conditions for xylooligosaccharides production from xylan were determined as follows: substrate and its concentration, oat spelt xylan 6%; concentration of yeast whole-cell, 5 unit/mL; temperature, $50^{\circ}C$, and reaction time $2{\sim}4\;h$. When the oat spelts xylan and corncob xylan were hydrolyzed by treatment with cell surface-displayed endoxylanase, xylotriose was formed as a main product.

The nutritional status of sulfur in rice plants grown on various field conditions different in soil fertility, fertilizers used and weather was investigated as follows. 1. The critical percentage of sulfur in rice shoot grown in a sulfur deficient field appears to be over 0.2 around 30 days after transplanting. 2. The mean sulfur contents at harvesting stage were 0.22% and 0.43% in the ear and straw, respectively and increased more in the straw by the application of ammonium sulfate. 3. The ratio of sulfur contents in the straw and ear (straw/ear) showed the increasing tendency from north to south only in the fertilized fields. But it was not as such in the percent translocation, the mean values of which were 26% and 29% in the fertilized and non-fertilized, respectively. 4. The sulfur uptake amounted to 6kg and 10kg per acre in the non-fertilized and fertilized, respectively. 5. The sulfur content was decreased in the order of leaf blade+leaf sheath, stem and ear, and was higher in the low productive field than that of high productive field.

Bacteriological examination of a 12,700 ha area within Jaranman Saryangdo area, located in Jaran bay and Saryangdo island, was conducted with 35 fixed (designated areas and adjacent areas) seawater sampling stations between January 2006 and December 2008. According to results, the geometric mean range and the estimated 90th percentile range of fecal coliform counts in sea water samples collected in the designated area were <1.8-2.4 and <1.8-8.6 MPN/100mL, respectively. The estimated 90th percentile range of fecal coliform counts in sea water samples collected from 6 sampling stations in the adjacent areas were 6.1-34.6 MPN/100mL. Based on these results, bacteriological water quality of the designated areas in the Jaranman. Saryangdo area meet the NSSP (National Shellfish Sanitation Program) guidelines for approved area. The bacteriological sea water quality in Jaranman.Saryangdo area has been shown to be favorable at all investigated sampling stations except for July and August which coincided with heavy rainfall. In fact, the bacteriological water quality was not affected if rainfall was less than 30 mm rainfall. However, the degree of bacteriological contamination increased rapidly and the water quality exceeded approved NSSP guidelines set for rainfall above 60 mm.

After application of silver nitrate on every newborn, the incidence of gonococcal conjunctivitis was markedly decreased. But recently neonatal conjunctivitis due to chlamydia infection is increasing, so clinical observation was made on 26 newborn infants who showed eye discharge from June 1st to August 31st 1989. The results were as follows. 1. The incidence of chlamydia infection among neonatal Conjunctivitis was 34.6%. 2. The most common age at diagnosis was 6-15days of life and there was no sexual prepondrance. 3. There was no significant difference on clinical symptoms between chlamydia conjunctivitis and other Conjunctivitis. 4. Of 26 infants examined. 16 cases revealed no growth on routine bacterial culture. Of the organism cultured, P. aeruginosa was the most common agent(19.2%) and followed by S. aureus(11.5%) and S. epidermidis(7.6%). In one case of chlamydia I conjunctivitis, there was concurrent S. aureus infections. 5. On this study, Giemsa stain did not give significant diagnostic aid of chlamydia conjunctivitis.

Fatty acid compositions of Panax ginseng leaves (6 year) grown under different light intensity in field and of the detached leaves exposed to high temperature (20 hours) were investigated by gas chromatography. Linoleic, linolenic, palmitic and palmitoleic acid were the major components(80%) of leaf lipid. The higher the growth light intensity, the lower the percentage of unsaturated acids or bonds, indicating metabolic adaptation to high temperature. Pattern similarity of fatty acid composition was little changed until 20% light but significantly different at 30%, suggesting 20% as limitation light intensity. The close similarity of fatty acid composition between the loaves grown under 30% light and the one at harvest rises uncertainty between adaptation to high temperature and senescence. Total fatty acid content decreased with the increase of light intensity. Short term high temperature $(25^{\circ}C\;or\;35^{\circ}C)$ increased total fatty acid content, unsaturated acid percentage and insignificant difference in pattern similarity of composition.

Using a cellulose macroporous microcarrier, HeLa cells were cultivated in 100mL spinner flask(Bellco Co., USA) and confluent cell laden microcarriers were subcultured by bead-to-bead cell transfer method. In macroporous mcirocarrier-HeLa system viable suspended cells played an important role in bead-to-bead cell transfer and that could be increased by use of RPMI-1640, a calcium-ion-reduced-media and high speed agitation. Successful bead-to-bead cell transfers were performed continuously three time in spinner flask. We applied this technique to produce recombinant Vaccinia virus which express $\beta$-galactosidase. Recombinant protein yield of bead-to-bead transferred culture was comparable to conventional microcarrier cultures that were inoculated by cells detached from T-flask. Although trypsinization is a useful method for subculturing microcarriers in some cases, that process adds quality control problem and handling steps to large scale cell production. There fore, bead-to-bead cell transfer technique offers another convenient and efficient scale-up method for continuous microcarrier cultures.

A gregarious pupal endoparasitoid Tetrastichsus sp. (Hymenoptera: Eulophidae) was reared in vitro from oviposition to adult emergence on an artificial host. The host pupal case was made using 0.02 mm-thick polypropylene film, and was filled with a diet consisting of powders of Antheraea pernyi pupa, chicken yolk, infant formula, royal jelly, and Neisenheimer's salt solution. Female parasitoids reared in the artificial host produced smaller sized progeny than those reared in in vivo, but the adults reproduced fertile offsprings. Furthermore in vitro second-generation (G$_2$) females showed more improved biological characteristics, compared with their parents. The fecundity (mean no. adult progeny), oviposition period (days), and longevity (days) of G$_2$ female were evaluated as 45.7, 7.8, and 13.8, respectively Female biased sex ratio was obtained with 76.9% female progeny. The results demonstrated that Tetrastichus sp. is a promising parasitoid for in vitro mass production.

Deep seawater (DSW) refers to water extracted from the ocean, usually at depths of 200 meters or more, which is rich in inorganic materials and has attracted attention for various applications. We investigated the effects of the DSW on the synaptic maturation of cultured rat hippocampal neurons. Immunocytochemical examination of DIV21 showed that PSD-95, $\alpha$CaMKII, and synGAP$\alpha1$clusters were strengthened and coupling rates of SV2 and NR2B were significantly increased in neurons grown in the presence of H-800 and H-1000 DSW. Our results indicate that DSW promotes the formation of excitatory postsynaptic signal transduction complexes NRC/MASC and functional synapses.
