Blood samples were obtained from Korean native cattle and dairy cattle of Holstein species in the slaughter house and methylene blue color tests were performed for the detection of the inherited susceptibitity to hemolysis. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activities expressed as the optical density obtained by methylene blue color test were the highest as 0.54 in male Korean cattle, 0.62 in female Korean cattle and 0.72 in dairy cattle of Holstein species. Percent hemolysis, packed cell volume and plasma protein contents were measured and compaired with relation to the results of methylene blue color test and no correlation were observed in each.

This study was performed to detect Neospora caninum in blood of 61 Korean native cattle and 50 dairy cows in Chungnam province. All of them were healthy and did not show any clinical signs. DNA was isolated from blood samples and a 328 bp fragment was amplified by PCR using primer pair Np21 and Np6. The PCR positive rate was 14.8% in Korean native cattle and 0% in dairy cows. Cows with 15.6% were a little higher than bulls with 12.5% in gender. The detection rate of over 3-year-old Korean native cattle was 28.6% in age. The results demonstrate that N. caninum DNA can be detected in blood by PCR. PCR analysis in blood may be useful to annually screening test for N. caninum infection in clinically healthy cattle.

Rumen liquor characteristics and disappearance rate of dry matter were studied in Kedah-Kelantan cattle and swamp buffaloes fed grass of rice straw-based diet. Cobalt-EDTA and chromium mordented fibres prepared from the faecal material were used to determine the liquid and solid particles movement in both animal species fed with rice straw. Swamp buffaloes showed a more intense rumen fermentation activity than Kedah-Kelantan cattle when both species were fed straw-based diet. The buffaloes also demonstrated faster rates of grass and straw degradation in situ. The fluid outflow rate from the rumen of buffalo ($1.06{\pm}0.19l/h$) was observed to be slower than that of cattle ($1.55{\pm}0.01l/h$). No significant differences between cattle and buffaloes were observed in rumen fluid volume and passage rate of small particles from the rumen.

One hundred and fifty seven Escherichia coli strains isolated from 18 cattle (9 dairy cattle received penicillin, streptomycin (SM) or sulfadimethoxine for treatment of diseases and 9 Korean native cattle not received antibiotics) were studied for the drug resistance and distribution of R factors. Of 88 E. coli strains isolated from cattle not received antibiotics, only 1 strain was resistant to SM, but about 46 per cent of 69 E. coli strains isolated from cattle received antibiotics were resistant to SM, tetracycline (TC), ampicillin (AP), kanamycin (KM), chloramphenicol (CM), and sulfisomidine (Su), alone or in combination thereof. Of resistant strains, about 72% were resistant to three or more antibiotics, but 28% were found to singly resistant. The most frequent resistant pattern was triple resistance to AP, KM and Su (37.6%), and quadruple one to SM, TC, CM and Su (12.5%). About 28% of resistant strains carried R factors which were transferable to E. coli ML 1410 $NA^r$ by conjugation.

This experiment was conducted to evaluate individual difference of chewing speed and chews per bolus duing the rumination using twenty three heads of grazing cattle and thirty six heads of barn feeding cattle. Rumination behaviour was measured and recorded by the masster EMC telemeter and visual observation. The chewing speed (chews/lOOsec) was significantly different individually (C.V. 13.0-14.5 %) among the variable aged group (1-60 months), but that of same aged group showed lower difference (C.V. 4.5 %). The chews per bolus showed even larger individually difference than the chewing speed, so the variable aged group (1-60 months) resulted the 15.5-16.2 %of C.V.and the same aged group showed the 9.5 % of C.V. Under 12 month aged cattle showed more rapid chewing speed than older aged cattle. The chewing speed changed with the growth of cattle, but the chews per bolus did not show any relationship with age, so it is regarded as the individually characteristic pattern.

In this study, we carried out to isolate lactoferrin from Korean native cattle and Holstein cow by batch extraction, ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and affinity chromatography. The purity of the isolated lactoferrin was higher than that of lactoferrin purchased from Sigma, when determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis. Antibacterial activity of E. coli O111 by Korean native cattle lactoferrin was lower than that of Holstein lactoferrin. A minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) of Korean native cattle lactoferrin and Holstein lactoferrin was 2.75 mg/ ml and 1.5 mg/ml respectively. The lactoferrin hydrolyzate of Korean native cattle exhibited antimicrobial activity at 0.25 mg/ml, whereas that of Holstein cow exhibited antimicrobial activity at 0.12 mg/ml. The antibacterial potency of the hydrolyzate was at least tenfold greater than that of undigeated lactoferrin with strains tested. The effect of hydrolyzate was bactericidal as indicated by rapid loss of viability of E. coli O111.

Cytogenetic and hematological analysis was performed in peripheral blood of cattle in the vicinity of Uljin nuclear power station and control area. The frequency of micronuclei(MN) in peripheral blood lymphocytes from cattle was used as a biomarker of radiobiological effects resulting from exposure to environmental radiation. An estimated dose of radiation was calculated by a best fitting linear-quadratic model based on the radiation-induced MN formation from the bovine lymphocytes exposed in vitro to radiation over the range from 0 Gy to 4 Gy. MN ratio in lymphocytes of cattle from Uljin nuclear power station and control area were 8.90/1,000 and 9.60/1,000, respectively. There were no significant differences in MN frequencies and hematological values in cattle between Uljin and control area.

Enteritis occured in a herd of Korean native cattle in Gyeonbug district in February 1977. of 40 cattle ranging in age from 15 to 20 months, 17 had been sick for the past six days with main clinical findings of feces containing mucus and blood. Among affected cattle, feces of 8 cattle were examined bacteriologically and parasitologically to investigate the causative agent. The disease was diagnosed as bovine coccidiosis caused by Eimeria zurnii based on the detection of $o{\ddot{o}}cysts$ and one of cattle was infected E. bukidnonensis, too.

1. The length of Trypanossoma was $20{\sim}40{\mu}m$ (including flagellum) in dairy cattle in Korea, 2. Crithidia of Trypanosoma was found out in the head of depressed Tabanid fly and 77% in the flies. 3. The Trypanosoma in the tryptose blood agar was changed its form from 6 weeks after cultivation. 4. Infectious rate of Trypanosoma in dairy cattle was the same as in Korean cattle. 5. Infectious rate of Trypanosoma in dairy cattle was higher in summer than in winter. 6. No Trypanosoma was found in the blood from the jugular vein of calves born in winter. 7. Erythrocyte increased while leukocyte decreased in nummber in the blood of the cattle infected with Trypanosoma.

A considerable amount of research has focused on the dimensionality of service quality construct. To achieve and maintain their comprehensiveness and profitability, restaurant managers should manage and aim to continuously improve the level of service quality offered to their customers. This paper is focused on service quality in the Korean native cattle and imported beef restaurant industry in the Korea. So, this paper has adapted DINESERV scale so that restaurant managers can use it to determine how customers perceive the service quality in Korean native cattle beef restaurant and imported beef restaurant. The purpose of this research is to test the difference in importance and actual performance of 5 dimensions between the restaurants that sell the beef of Korean native cattle and imported cattle. The t-value is used to test difference of the importance and actual performance for DINESERV's 5 dimensions of the 2 restaurant types. But, there is no difference between Korean native cattle and imported beef restaurant.
