The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of storage time on fresh boar semen in Androhep and Beltsville Thawing Solution (BTS). Boar semen samples extended in each extender were stored at $17^{\circ}C$ up to 4 days. Sperm motility kinematics was evaluated by computer assisted sperm analyzer (CASA) and capacitation status by chlortetracycline (CTC)/Hoechst 33258 staining. Sperm motility (%) was not decreased during storage in BTS and Androhep. No significant difference between extenders was observed. Only significant differences in kinematic parameters on linearity during storage were found. The percentage of dead sperm significantly decreased during storage (p<0.05). Also the percentage of noncapacitated, capacitated, and acrosome-reacted sperm significantly modified during storage (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference between extenders except proportion of capacitated sperm. This finding supported that modification in these parameters was not significantly different between extenders during this short-term storage. Our finding strongly indicated that both Androhep and BIS maintained favorable conditions for motility, motility kinematics, and capacitation status during short-term storage. Despite modifications in some parameters were apparent during sperm storage in extenders, these may not affect the fertilizing capacity of boar semen.

It is the purpose of this study to provide the basic data to stimulate the social understanding of an abandoned child from the medical viewpoint and the viewpoint of administrative management. The data are based on the medical dossier of 305 patients which were hospitalized in 'A' hospital (of Seoul municipal hospital) between 1992 and 1996. The method of analysis is SPSS statistical package and the following results can be obtained 1. The abandoned children were frequently found in the Spring by season, in April by month, on Friday by day, and especially in the night and before an individual home and an medical institution in many cases. 2. The children found in an individual home were younger, handicapped smaller, and hospitalized for shorter period. As they were healthy relatively, parents might hope that they were accepted as foundling foster children. Contrary to above case, the children found in an medical institution were worse, handicapped more, and hospitalized for longer period. Accordingly, parents might hope that they were protected in an public institution. 3. The $69.8\%$ of abandoned children had caught a disease at that time and the $53.8\%$ of them had been handicapped. The most serious disease and handicap were the heart-lung trouble and the cerebral palsy, respectively. 4. The only $60.8\%$ of them were adopted and the most of them were healthy relatively. The $10.2\%$ which have been dead had caught four diseases on the average. As the results of above, the followings can be proposed : 1) It is required that the system connected to administrative management, which can provide the abandoned children turned for the better with the family relations to voluntary servants, be developed. 2) It is required that the system of registration management and plan for support economy, which can support the handicapped birth as the congenital malformation in national aspect, be developed. 3) It is required that to protect abandoned children, the health educational program for childbirth-people be prepared in the unit of a public health center.

The numerical simulation has been performed to predict the performance of the fire suppression system for cabin of shipboard enclosure. The present study aims ultimately at finding the optimal parametric conditions of the mist-injecting nozzles using the CFD methods. The open numerical code was used for the present simulation named as FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator). Application has been done to predict the interaction between water mist and fire plume. In this study, the passenger cabin was chosen as simulation space. The computational domains for simulation in the passenger cabin were determined following the fire scenario of IMO rules. The full scale of the flow field is $W{\times}L{\times}H=4{\times}3{\times}2.4m^3$ with a dead zone of $W{\times}L{\times}H=1.22{\times}1.1{\times}2.4m^3$. The water mist nozzle is installed in ceiling center of 2.3 m height from the floor, and there are six mattresses and four cushions in the simulation space. The combination patterns of orifices to the main nozzle and the position to install nozzles were chosen as the simulation parameters for design applications. From the present numerical results, the centered-located nozzles having evenly combined orifices were shown as the best performance of fire suppression.

Heat stress to bovine oocytes and embryos has suggested a potential role of retardation of their development. Limited study has reported on the effect of heat shock on sperm before using it for IVF. Caudal epididymal sperm cultured in 42$^{\circ}C$ incubator for 0.5, 1 and 2 h compared on sperm viability and oocyte development after its use for IVF to those of control. Oocytes were matured for 22 h and then inseminated with treated or control sperm for 16 h. Embryos were cultured in CRlaa medium, transferred to TCM199＋10% FBS on day 4, and maintained on day 9. A higher proportion (84.1%, 0.5 h; 72%, 1 h: 65%, 2 h) in treated sperm was observed dead and abnormal pattern as 100% of consider as control. In control the rates of cleavage and development into blastocyst were 76% and 22%, respectively, and did not differ the rates between 1 h and 2 h of culture. Significant differences were appeared in the rates between treated for an hour and control (32% and 5% vs. 54% and 10%, respectively). Moreover increased time of culture is more retardation to be cleaved the oocytes. However, the rates of blastocyst from cleaved embryos in treated group similar to control (25% vs. 29%, respectively). The reason for this remains unclear, but male sperm, from preliminary experiment(data un-shown) for sexing of resulting embryos, would be more fragility on heat stress.

This paper reports the strandings of sea turtles on Korean shores monitored for the first time in 2008. A total of 19 sea turtles, consisting of 12 greens and 7 loggerheads, were recorded as stranded from the east coast to the south including Jeju Island. Reported strandings reached a peak in July and dominant area was Jeju Island. The curved carapace length of loggerhead sea turtles ranged 65-84.2cm and that of green sea turtles ranged 39.2-90cm, indicating most of them were immature to sub-adult. Out of 19 turtles, 11 were found dead with unknown reasons. Possible causes of death may include drawning by fishing gear, swallowing of marine debris, boat collision, and diseases. An immature green sea turtle tagged with a satellite transmitter spent winter near Jeju Island where it was released, suggesting that the Island provide immature greens a feeding ground. Considering thousands of sea turtles crawl on Japanese shores for nesting every year, the number of sea turtles reported in Korean waters was relatively small. Therefore, it is suggested that an appropriate monitoring system be necessary to protect and conserve endangered sea turtle species in Korean waters.

Objective : Massive cerebral infarction could be accompanied by severe brain swelling and death secondary to transtentorial herniation. Approximately 10% to 15% of middle cerebral artery infarctions are associated with this phenomenon. However, the effectiveness and timing of decompressive surgery are still controversial. In this study, we present our results on the effect of decompressive craniectomy in life threatening cerebral infarction. Method : We retrospectively analyzed 15 patients who underwent decompressive craniectomy for massive cerebral infarction from January 1997 to April 1999. Surgical indication was based on the clinical signs such as neurological deterioration, pupillary reflex, and radiological findings. Clinical outcome was assessed by Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Results : All 15 patients(five men, ten women ; mean age, 52.3 years ; right 11, left 4) were treated with wide craniectomy and duroplasty. The average time interval between onset of symptom and surgical decompression was 2.9 days. Clinical signs of uncal herniation(anisocoria, or fixed and dilated pupils) were presented in 13 of 15 patients. Mean Glasgow coma scale(GCS) was 12.4 points on admission, 8.1 points on preoperative state and 11.8 points postoperatively. Overall outcomes were favorable in 5 cases(Glasgow outcome scale : GOS I, II), unfavorable in 6 cases(Glasgow outcome scale : GOS III, IV) and dead in 4 cases. Conclusion : Early decompressive craniectomy before brain stem compression is considered as an effective lifesaving procedure for massive cerebral infarction unresponsive to aggressive medical therapy.

본 논문에서는 저가이면서 높은 정확도를 갖는 GPS와 DR의 통합시스템 및 이 시스템의 위치 결정에 수반되는 오차문제를 고려한다. 이 통합 GPS/DR 시스템은 실시간 또는 비 실시간으로 고정밀도의 위치 정보를 제공하는 성능을 갖는다. DR 측정치에 영향을 주는 주요 오차 요인을 분석하여 이를 8개의 상태 변수의 모델로 표현하였다. 이들 변수의 상태 방정식을 사용하여 DR신호가 제공되는 매 순간에서 상태 변수값을 추산하기 위한 통합시스템용 비선형 필터를 개발한다, 1Hz의 DR 측정치와 3Hz로 제공되는 GPS 위치 정보를 위치 추산치에 대해 이 통합시스템의 정확도를 평가한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 GPS신호가 정전되는 기간동안 통합 시스템의 성능을 두 가지 서로 다른 잡음모델에 대해 비교 검토한다. 두 잡음모델 중 하나는 단일잡용을 사용하는 반면에 또 다른 모델은 이중 잡음 모델을 채용한다. 시뮬레이션 결과로부터 이중 잡음 모델을 채용하는 GPS/DR 통합시스템은 단일 잡음 모델을 이용하는 경우에 비하여 측위성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

The antibacterial activity of clove (Eugenia caryophyllata Thumb) in culture troth against S. aureus was tested at 35, 5, -20, 50, 55 and 60$^{\circ}C$. Tryptic soy broth(TSB) containing 0∼0.5%(w/v) of clove was inoculated with 105∼107 CFU/ml of S. aureus and incubated at each temperature. The growth of S. aureus occured at 0.1% clove after a prolonged lag period while viable cells of S. aureus decreased more than 2 log cycles at 0.3 and 0.4% clove during 12 hours storage at 35$^{\circ}C$. During 32 days of refrigerated storage at 5$^{\circ}C$, survivors of S. aureus were decreased with the progress of time and increasing clove concentration. At the presence of 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4% clove, bacterial cells were dead after 32, 20 and 16 days of refrigerated storage, respectively. During 32 days of frozen storage at -20$^{\circ}C$, survivors of S. aureus were decreased less than 0.5 log cycle at 0% clove. At the presence of 0.1∼0.4% clove, survivors were decreased 2.5∼3.0 log cycles after 1 day and then decreased 0.4∼0.8 log cycles through the frozen storage. There were small changes in populations of S. aureus in TSB between different concentrations of clove during frozen storage. The D-values of S. aureus at clove 0, 0,2, 0.4% were 28.53, 15.14, 8.9 min at 50$^{\circ}C$, 18.43, 10.32, 6.74 min at 55$^{\circ}C$ and 12.78, 9.88, 5.72 min at 60$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The D-values for S. aureus were decreased with the increasing temperature and clove concentration.
