Characteristics, pathogenicity and control of the causative organisms isolated front diseased cultured flounder, Paralichthys olivaceus were studied. The causative organisms were identified as E tarda by biochemical and biophysical characteristics. Also, it strains were named as E tarda KBF-1 and E tarda KMF-1, and optimal pH of E tarda KBF-1 and E tarda KMF-1 were 8.0, and optimal concentration of NaCl. E tarda KBF-1 was 0% and E tarda KMF-1 was 1%. In the pathogenicity test, 0~10 of the flounders of artificially infected group(E tarda KBF-1) with $1.0{\times}10^7$ cfu/fish were died within 60 hrs, but 0~9 flounders infected group with 41.0{\times}10^6$ cfu/fish were died within 60 hrs. Also, 0~10 flounders infected group(E tarda KMF-1) with $1.0{\times}10^7$ cfu/fish were died within 36 hrs, while 0~7 flounders infected with $1.0{\times}10^6$ cfu/fish were died within 60 hrs. Drug sensitivity of E tarda KBF-1 strain was resistant to AM, CF and N, and intermediate to E, K and S, and sensitivity to C, G, SxT and FF. But E tarda KMF-1 strain was resistant to CF, E and V, and intermediate to AM, C, N and SxT, and sensitivity to GM and FF.

A total of 1,780 isolates of Enterococcus spp. were isolated from 63,133 clinical specimens from Dec 1, 2005 to Nov 1, 2006 in "C" hospital. Isolation frequencies of Enterococcus spp. were 50.9% for E. faecalis, 41.7% for E. faecium, and 7.4% for other Enterococcus spp. containing E. avium, E. gallinarum, E. casseliflavus, E. durans, E. hirae, and E. raffinosus. There were no significant difference between gender, but according to the age group analysis, Enterococcus spp. were more frequently isolated in patients over 50 years old (20.0~24.6%) than those isolated from the patients under the age of 0~49 (1.3~9.4%). In monthly analysis, Enterococcus spp. were the most frequently isolated in April (11.9%), but presented at lowest frequency in February (5.2%). Seasonal analysis did not show a significant difference. Over half of enterococci were isolated from random urine (44.9%) and catherterized urine (15.7%). Frequencies of vancomycin resistant E. faecalis and E. faecium were 0.1% and 31.0%, respectively. Teicoplanin resistant Enterococcus was 13.3% in E. faecalis, 17.6 % in E. faecium. The Enterococcus species showing over 80% susceptibility against antimicrobial agents were E. faecalis, E. durans and E. hirae in vancomycin; E. faecalis, E. gallinarum, E. casseliflavus, E. durans and E. hirae in ampicillin. The antimicrobial agent showing susceptibility against whole group of Enterococcus species was only linezolid (95.9%), and a selection of antimicrobial agent is necessary to do essential performance identification and susceptibility tests.

Background: Cervical cancer is listed as one of high-incidence endemic diseases in Xinjiang. Our study aimed to evaluate the expression of TLR9 in uterine cervical tissues of Uyghur women and examine associations with clinicopathological variables. We further characterized the direct effects of TLR9 upon the selective silencing of human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 and E7 oncoprotein expression in HPV 16-positive human cervical carcinoma cells treated with siRNA in vitro. Materials and Methods: Immunohistochemistry was applied to evaluate TLR9 expression in 97 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded cervical samples from Uyghur women; 32 diagnosed with cervical squamous cell carcinomas (CSCC), 14 with low-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CINI), 10 medium-grade (CINII), 24 high-grade (CINIII), and 17 chronic cervicitis. $BLOCK-iT^{TM}$ U6 RNAi Entry Vector $pENTR^{TM}$/U6-E6 and E7 was constructed and transfected the entry clone directly into the mammalian cell line 293FT. Then the HPV 16-positive SiHa human cervical carcinoma cell line was infected with RNAi recombinant lentivirus. RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to determine the expression of TLR9 in both SiHa and HPV 16 E6 and E7 silenced SiHa cells. Results: Immunohistochemical staining showed that TLR9 expression was undetectable (88.2%) or weak (11.8%) in chronic cervicitis tissues. However, variable staining was observed in the basal layer of all normal endocervical glands. TLR9 expression, which was mainly observed as cytoplasmic staining, gradually increased in accordance with the histopathological grade in the following order: chronic cervicitis (2/17, 11.8%)

Two new nitro analogs of tranylcypromine, (E)-2-(p-nitrophenyl)cyclopropylamine ((E)-p-NTCP) and (E)-2-(m-nitrophenyl)cyclopropylamine ((E)-m-NTCP) were synthesized in order to examine the effect of aromatic nitro substitution on the MAO-inhibitory activity of 2-phenylcyclopropylamines. The compounds were obtained by treating t-butyl (E)-2-(p-nitrophenyl) cyclopropanecarbamate and t-butyl (E)-2-(m-nitrophenyl)cyclopropanecarbamate with p-toluenesulfonic acid in $CH_3$CN. Inhibitions of rat brain mitochondrial MAO-A and B by the compounds were examined using serotonin and benzylamine as the substrate at both in vitro and ex vivo levels. It was found from in vitro measurements that (E)-p-NTCP at $6.0{\times}10^{-5}M$ elicited merely 22.5% inhibition against MAO-B without any effect on MAO-A. In contrast, (E)-m-NTCP showed fair degrees of inhibitions of MAO-A and B with $IC_{50}$ values, $2.5{\times}10^{-7}M\;and\;1.4{\times}10^{-6}M$, respectively. It was also noted from (E)-m-NTCP that m-nitro substitution caused a shift of selectivity of the inhibition toward MAO-A. According to ex vivo measurements at 1.5, 3, 6, and 12 hr following the administration of a dose of 0.015 mmol/kg, i.p. to the rats, the inhibition percents of MAO-A by (E)-m-NTCP were 58.6, 63.7 63.6, and 46.6%, slightly lower than those observed by tranylcypromine. Whereas, (E)-m-NTCP at the same dose level did not show significant inhibitions against both MAO-A and MAO-B. Possible reasons for the difference in potencies between (E)-m-NTCP and (E)-p-NTCP were sought in relation to differing electron withdrawing effects of m- and p-substituents which will influence electron density of the side chain amino functions and the partitions.

The longitudinal change of vitamin A concentration and secretion in transitional milk of 32 Korean lactating wormen and vitamin A intake of infants were studied 7, 10 and 15 days postpartum. Retinol concentration of the milk averaged 93.6$\pm$47.1, 80.1$\pm$41.6 and 66.7$\pm$33.5$\mu\textrm{g}$/100ml at 7, 10 and 15 days postpartum respectively and showed decreasing trend in total mothers. $\beta$-carotene concentration showed similar decreasing trend averaged 13.4$\pm$10.6, 8.2$\pm$4.6 and 5.3$\pm$3.4$\mu\textrm{g}$/100ml respectively. Vitamin A concentration decreased with the respective amount of 94.9$\pm$47.1, 80.5$\pm$41.5 and 67.3$\pm$33.0 R.E../100ml during the lactation. The average vitamin A secretion in the milk of all mothers appeared 410.0 R.E/day. Vitamin A secretion of multiparae (450.1 R.E./100ml) appeared not significantly higher than those of primiparae(370.0 R.E./100ml). The average vitamin A intake of infants in the milk averaged 333.7 R.E./day and was 95.3% of RDA for infants. Vitamin A intake per body weight of infants in the milk averaged 110.6, 91.9 and 79.2 R.E./kg/day respectively.

A newly-isolated thermophilic strain of the zygomycete fungus Rhizomucor pusillus 13.36 produced highly active dextrinogenic and saccharogenic enzymes. Cassava pulp was a good alternative substrate for amylase production. Dextrinogenic and saccharogenic amylases exhibited optimum activities at a pH of 4.0-4.5 and 5.0 respectively and at a temperature of $75^{\circ}C$. The enzymes were highly thermostable, with no detectable loss of saccharogenic or dextrinogenic activity after 1 hand 6 h at $60^{\circ}C$, respectively. The saccharogenic activity was inhibited by $Ca^{2+}$ while the dextrinogenic was indifferent to this ion. Both activities were inhibited by $Fe^{2+}\;and\;Cu^{2+}$ Hydrolysis of soluble starch by the crude enzyme yielded $66\%$ glucose, $19.5\%$ maltose, $7.7\%$ maltotriose and $6.6\%$ oligosaccharides.

Vitellogenin(VTG) 합성에 미치는 A23187의 영향을 무지개송어의 배양 간세포를 이용하여 실험을 행하였다. 간세포는 2일간 배양한 후, Estradiol-$17^{\beta}$($E_2$, $2{\times}10^{-6}$M) 및 A23187 ($10^{-7)$~$10^{-5}$M)을 첨가하여 7일간 배양하였다. 그리고, $E_2$에 의한 VTG 합성시의 A23187이 미치는 영향에 대해서도 조사하였다. A23187이 미치는 영향에 대해서도 조사하였다. A23187 ($10^{-7)$~$10^{-5}$M)의 첨가에 의해 간세포에서의 VTG 합성은 농도의 증가에 따라 감소하였다.$E_2$에 의해 합성된 VTG는 A 23187 ($10^{-5}$M)의 첨가에 의해 대조군($E_2$만의 첨가)의 약 18%로 유의하게 감소하였다. 그러나,$E_2$제거로는 대조군의 약 47% 밖에 감소되지 않았다. 이러한 결과로 보아, 세포내의 저장 Ca은 번역 단계 또는 번역 후 단계를 조절함으로써, VTG 합성을 조절하는 것으로 추정된다.

목적:소아 UTI에서 non-E. coli UTI 의 빈도를 확인하고 원인균주별(E. coli vs. non-E. coli) 임상양상과 항생제 내성률을 비교하고자 하였다. 방 법: 2008년 9월부터 2009년 8월까지 UTI 입원 환아 중에서 원인균주가 배양 증명된 환아들을 대상으로 하였다. 인구학적 특징, 임상양상, 검사소견, 원인균주와 항생제 내성률을 전향적으로 조사하였다. 결과:전체 84명 중 E. coli UTI 은 63명(75.0%)이었고 non-E. coli UTI은 21명(25.0%)이었다. 성별 연령군에 따라서 non-E. coli의 분포는 차이를 보였다 : 6개월 미만 남아군, 10.5%; 6개월 이상 남아군, 50.0%; 6개월 미만 여아군, 43.7%; 6개월 이상 여아군, 25.0% (P =0.014). E. coli UTI군에 비해, non-E. coli UTI 군에는 입원 전 항생제를 치료받은 환아의 비율이 높았고(P=0.017), 혈뇨가 동반된 환아의 비율은 낮았다(P=0.014). E. coli 보다 non-E. coli는 cefazolin과 cefotaxime, imipenem, TMP/SMX, tetracycline에 대해 높은 내성률을 보였다(P<0.05). 결론:소아 UTI 치료과정에서, 증가 추세의 non-E. coli UTI 빈도와 성별 연령군별 원인균주의 차이, E. coli 보다 높은 non-E. coli의 항생제 내성률은 고려되어야 할 사항이다.
