Colostrum, a nutrient-rich fluid produced by female mammals after giving birth, is the specific initial diet of mammalian neonates. Colostrum is important for the nutrition, growth, and development of newborn infants and contributes to the immunologic defense of neonates. It contains immunoglobulins, antimicrobial peptides, such as lactoferrin and lactoperoxidase, and other bioactive molecules, including growth factors, such as IGF (insulin-like growth factor), EGF (epithermal growth factor), $TGF-{\beta}$ (transforming growth factor), and FGF (fibroblast growth factor). Bovine colostrum is a rich source of growth factors, which play a central role in wound healing. The biological activities of colostrum emphasize the relevance of the synergistic activity of growth factors to stimulate keratinocyte proliferation and migration, which are essential for tissue repair. Colostrum increases the expression of early differentiation markers, such as keratin 1 and 10 and involucrin, and late differentiation markers, including loricrin and filaggrin. Additionally, colostrum increases granulation tissue volume in the dermis, suggesting that it has a beneficial effect on wound healing. The therapeutic use of colostrum or individual peptides present in colostrum has a positive and curative influence on various gastrointestinal diseases.

This study was conducted to detect the specific expressing genes by using RAPD-PCR and RFLP method in the Korea Native Brindled Cattle, Korean Native cow and Holstein cattle. And then, the specific marker gene was investigated by the analysis of the genes for detection significance according to the expressing pattern. We found the specific expression gene by the RAPD-PCR analysis in Korea Native Brindled Cattle. It was detected the differences of the species in the colour and external section. The Korea Native Brindled Cattle were vary low compare to the Korean Native cow and Holstein cattle by analysis result of polymorphism and distribution. And there were a found the specific marker gene by sequencing in the R9B gene fragment of Korea Native Brindled Cattle. And the sequencing result of the R9B was different between Korean Native cow and Holstein cattle. Thus, this gene can be apply as the specific marker gene in the Korea Native Brindled Cattle.

By two-dimensional gel electrophoresis loss of a cell-specific protein was detected in tD strain of Amoeba proteus that had been infected by symbiotic bacteria extracted from xD strain. In 50 days of experimental infection by induced phagocytosis the host amoeba lost the ability to synthesize the tD cell-specific protein even after removal of the infective bacteria and xD cell-specific protein by growing the amoebae at $27^\\circC$. By this time the host amoebae were obligately dependent on the bacteria. From these and other results (Lorch and Jeon, Science 221:549), it is clear that the incompatibility of the infected nuclei with the cytoplasm of the uninfected amoeba and the obligate dependence of the host on bacteria are due to the irreversible inactivation or the loss of the cell-specific gene by bacterial infection in this amoeba.

Stratum-specific likelihood ratio, which is ratio of the sensitivity to 1-the specificity in each stratum of the test, could be biased if the sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic test are affected by verification bias. Therefore, the optimal cutoff point determined by biased stratum-specific likelihood ratios is incorrect. In this study, we derived adjusted stratum-specific likelihood ratios using the adjusted sensitivity and specificity, and obtained the adjusted optimal cutoff point. The influence of the verification bias on the optimal cutoff point was described through the relation between adjusted and unadjusted stratum-specific likelihood ratios.

The genetic relationship was examined with PCR-RAPD markers among three scallop species, Chlamys farreri farreri, Patinopecten yessoensis, and Agropecten irradians. Six primers were selected from 60 primers used to compare PCR-RAPD profiles among species. All primers showed distinct RAPD band patterns between the three species. In Chiamys farreri farreri, the morphological characteristics such as shell size and color were considerably different between the two geographical populations. RAPD profile, however, showed that no significant genetic differences were found between the two geographical populations. Polymorphic alleles were observed within a population of each species. Thus, PCR-RAPD markers are useful in identifying scallop species and in understanding scallop population genetic structure.

The stress singularity for the excess adhesive on interface of adhesively bonded joint was investigated by using the 2-dimensional elastic boundary element method (BEM). To establish a reasonable strength evaluation method and a fracture criterion for the excess adhesive of interface in adhesively bonded joint, it is necessary to evaluate fracture parameters with various bonding conditions. Under the variations of adhesively bonded thickness (h) and diameter (d) for the excess adhesive, a stress analysis was performed, and from the results, the stress singularity index (${\lambda}$) and the stress singularity factor (${\Gamma}$) were calculated. The variations have a great influences on the stress singularity for the excess adhesive of interface in adhesively bonded joint, and the ${\Gamma}$ is reduced as the "h" and "d" increase.

This study investigated the risk factor of Gallbladder stone in Busan and Kyungnam area. The subjects of the experiment was performed with patients by abdominal ultrasonography among the patients who came to the P hospital from June 2016 to December 2016. Among them, risk factors were analyzed on 353 people at the same time when abdominal ultrasonography and hematological test. The statistical analysis of risk factors related to the Gallbladder stone was performed by independent t-test and chi-square test. In consider of difference verification result for calculations odds ratio about independent variables, multiple logistic regression analysis to conduct verify adequacy by calculating forecasting model from variable. As a result, Gallbladder stone risk factors have relevance to age ${\gamma}GTP$ with probability model and values to calculated. Age was showed sensitivity 49.7%, specificity 82.2%, receiver operating characteristic area under curve 0.724. Forecasting probability sensitivity 69.3%, specificity 62.4%, receiver operating characteristic area under curve 0.699 showed, ${\gamma}GTP$ confirmed validity of forecasting model.

RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) analysis was conducted to Schisandra nigra plants in order to select the specific markers for monoecious and dioecious individuals. RAPD results using eighty random 10-mer primers revealed that S. nigra had a different banding pattern from S. chinensis and Kadsura japonica. When DNA isolated from leaves of monoecious and dioecious plants were used as PCR template, only five primers, OPA-17, OPA-19, OPB-03, OPB-09 and OFB-16, showed polymorphic band patterns. No variation in banding profiles within male or female individuals was observed when these five primers were used whereas three monoecious plants (No 1, No 2 and No 3) showed different banding patterns one another, A 750 bp segment was amplified by primer OPB-3 from male individuals. On the other hand, two segments, 950 bp and 1690 bp, with OPA-19 and 700 bp of segment with OPB-3 were amplified in female individuals. These result indicate that the specific buds of male and female S. nigra could be used as genetic markers for the early discrimination of male and female individuals.
