  • Objective: This study aimed to gain deeper insights into the dynamic changes in spoilage fungi populations during fermentation and the influence of traditional additives on silage quality. Methods: Elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) was prepared without any additive (control), and with the addition of 0.5% salt, and 0.5% salt-0.2% sugar mixture. The fungal community was then determined using a classic culturing method and high-throughput sequencing at 0, 5, 15, and 60 days after ensiling. Results: The results showed that the fungal community of elephant grass silage varied significantly between the natural fermentation without any additive and the two additive groups. The diversity and relative abundance of spoilage molds in the control group were much higher than those in the two treatment groups (p<0.05). Three species of yeasts (Candida sp., Pichia sp., Trichosporon sp.) and four spoilage molds (Fusarium sp., Aspergillus sp., Muco sp. and Penicillin sp.) were the predominant fungi in elephant grass during natural fermentation from 0 to 60 days, which were found to be significantly decreased in salt and sugar additive groups (p<0.05). Meanwhile, the diversity and relative abundance of undesirable molds in the 0.5%-salt additive group were the lowest among all groups. Conclusion: Adding salt and sugar, particularly 0.5% salt, is a promising effective approach to reduce the amount of undesirable fungi thus, improving the silage quality of elephant grass in northern Vietnam.

  • Two experiments were conducted to evaluate the dietary supplemental fruit extract(Bio-plus) on performance and intestinal microflora of broiler chicks. Seven treatments were allocated into control, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.10, 0.20, 0.40, 0.80, 1.60% with four replications for five weeks, in both experiments. Diets contained 21.5% CP, 3, 100 kcal/kg ME for the rest two weeks. Weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion ratio(FCR) were weekly measured. Birds were sacrificed to examine the E. coli and Salmonella from cecum and ileum at the end of experiment. In experiment 1, Weight gain of Bio plus treatments tended to increase compared to that of control, but was not consistency between them. Chicks fed Bio-plus showed significantly lower feed conversion ratio(FCR) than control(P〈0.05). In experiment 2, Weight gain of Bio plus treatments was significantly different from control(P〈0.05) for starting period and linearly increased upto 0.80% for the rest of two weeks, but was not significantly different. Feed intake of chicks fed Bio-plus tended to be higher than control. Bio-plus treatments was not statistically different FCR from control. ND titer showed no significance, but tended to be higher in Bio-plus treatments than control. The number of ileum salmonella was significantly decreased in Bio-plus treatments compared to that of control in expt 2 (P〈0.05). Total yeast and Lactobacillus spp. of illeum tended to increase in expt 1 and were significantly higher in expt 2 than control(P〈0.05). The results of these experiment indicated that dietary Bio-plus supplements increased weight gain, the number of ileum yeast and Lactobacillus spp. of broiler chicks.

  • The experiment was conducted to evaluate Bio-V-Pro as an alternative protein source in broiler diets. Treatments were control, Bio-V-Pro 1% (BP 1), Bio-V-Pro 3% (BP 3), and Bio-V-Pro 5% (BP 5). During the starter period, all treated groups showed beter performance than control group in weight gain and feed intake (p < 0.05). The best FCR was observed in BP 1 group and the worst was found in BP 5 group. For the overall period, chicks fed BP 1 and BP 3 diets gained more than the chicks fed the control and BP 5 diets. All Bio-V-Pro fed groups consumed more feed than the control group (p < 0.05). FCR were similar between the control and BP 1 group, but BP 3 and BP 5 groups showed higher FCR than the control group. During the starter period, all BP groups showed better utilizability of crude protein, crude ash and phosphorus than the control group (p < 0.05). For the finisher period, except for the BP 5 group, the nutrient utilizability was not significantly different in most nutrients. Nutrients utilizability had a tendency (not significant) to decrease as the level of Bio-V-Pro in the diet was increased. Lysine utilizability was not affected by the dietary treatment, however, methionine utilizability was higher in BP 1 and BP 3 group than in the control group. From the results of this experiment, it seems that Bio-V-Pro is a good alternative protein source which can replace fish meal in starter diet up to 3% of the diet effectively.

  • Envioronmental concerns by use of chemical pesticides have increased the need for alternative method in the control of plant-parasitic nematodes. Biological control is considered eco-friendly and a promising alternative in pest and disease management. A wide range of organisms are known to be effective in control of plant-parasitic nematodes. Fungal biological control is a hopeful research area and there is constant attention in the use of fungi for the control of nematodes. In this review, plant-parasitic nematodes with reference to soils and biological control and nematophagous fungi are dicussed.

  • 면역측정법을 이용하는 검사실에서 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 상업용 제3자 정도관리물질이 BIO-RAD사에서 제공하는 물질이다. 현재 BIO-RAD 정도관리 물질에 포함된 Reference Sheet에는 비방사면역측정을 이용한 검사방법과 검사장비별로 각 측정물질의 Acceptable Range가 기재되어 있다. 그러나 방사면역측정법을 이용하여 검사하는 측정kit나 기기에 대해서는 실무에 적용할 만한 Acceptable Range에 대한 언급이 다소 부족한 것이 현실이다. 방사면역측정검사에 대한 Acceptable Range를 설정하여 검사결과의 객관성을 높이고 누적된 데이터를 제조사에 권고하여 발행되는 Reference Sheet에 기재하고자 한다. 본원에서는 2009년부터 부분적으로 BIO-RAD 정도관리 물질을 사용하여 2011년에는 일부 특정 항목을 제외한 대부분의 검사종목에 BIO-RAD 제 3자 정도관리물질을 사용하고 있다. 따라서 측정된 내부정도관리 데이터를 BIO-RAD사의 Unity Real Time program (version 1.0.9.27)을 이용하여 Acceptable Range를 설정하였다. BIO-RAD 정도관리 물질을 사용하는 약 50가지 검사종목의 20개 Point Data의 평균값, 표준편차, 변이계수를 구하여 측정kit별 Acceptable Range를 산출하였으며, 자동화 면역 측정기기인 Roche Elecsys/ E170/ cobas e Systems의 측정값과 비교하였다. 현재 시행하고 있는 외부정도관리 프로그램과 같이 BIO-RAD 정도관리 물질을 공통으로 사용하는 병원과 peer group을 설정하여 측정 kit별, 기기별 Acceptable Range를 제조사에 권고하여 Reference Sheet에 방사면역검사실에 적합한 Acceptable Range를 기재하여 검사결과의 객관성을 높이고 국내외적으로 방사면역측정법에 대한 인지도를 높이고자 한다.

  • A total of 39 essential oils were tested for antifungal activities as volatile compounds against five phytopathogenic fungi at a dose of 1 ${\mu}l$ per plate. Five essential oils showed inhibitory activities against mycelial growth of at least one phytopathogenic fungus. Origanum vulgare essential oil inhibited mycelial growth of all of the five fungi tested. Both Cuminum cyminum and Eucalyptus citriodora oils displayed in vitro antifungal activities against four phytopathogenic fungi except for Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The essential oil of Thymus vulgaris suppressed the mycelial growth of C. gloeosporioides, Fusarium oxysporum and Rhizoctonia solani and that of Cymbopogon citratus was active to only F. oxysporum. The chemical compositions of the five active essential oils were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. This study suggests that both E. citriodora and C. cyminum oils have a potential as antifungal preservatives for the control of storage diseases of various crops.

  • Hydrogel scaffolds composed of multiple components are promising platform in tissue engineering as a transplantation materials or artificial organs. Here, we present a new fabrication method for implementing multi-layered macroscopic hydrogel scaffold composed of multiple components by controlling height of hydrogel layer through precise control of ultraviolet (UV) energy density. Through the repetition of the photolithography process with energy control, we can form several layers of hydrogel with different height. We characterized UV energy-dependent profiles with single-layered PEGDA posts photocrosslinked by the modular methodology and examined the optical effect on the fabrication of multi-layered, macroscopic hydrogel structure. Finally, we successfully demonstrated the potential applicability of our approach by fabricating various macroscopic hydrogel constructs composed of multiple hydrogel layers.
