BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The effects of fish consumption by subjects with prediabetes on the metabolic risk factors were examined based on the data from the $6^{th}$ Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys in 2015. SUBJECTS/METHODS: A total of 1,520 subjects who agreed to participate in a blood test and dietary intake survey were divided into a prediabetes group and normal blood glucose group, and the level of the subjects' fish consumption was divided into ${\leq}17.0g/day$, 18.0-93.0 g/day, and ${\geq}94g/day$. The correlation between the level of fish intake and the metabolic risk factors was evaluated by multinomial logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: A significant difference in the gender distribution was observed in the prediabetes group, which is a group with a high risk of non-communicable diseases, according to the fish intake, and there were significant differences in the total energy intake, protein intake, n-3 fatty acids intake, and the intakes of sodium and micro-nutrients according to the intake group (P < 0.05). In addition, the blood total cholesterol (TC) decreased 0.422 fold in model 1 (unadjusted) [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.211-0.845] and 0.422 fold in model 2 (adjusted for sex) (95% CI: 0.210-0.846) in those with a fish intake of 18.0-93.0 g/day (P < 0.05) compared to those with a fish intake of ${\leq}17.0g/day$. The blood TC decreased 0.555 fold (95% CI: 0.311-0.989) in model 1 and 0.549 fold (95% CI: 0.302-0.997) in model 2 in those with a fish intake of ${\geq}94g/day$ compared to those with a fish intake of ${\leq}17.0g/day$ (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Subjects with prediabetes or the metabolic risk factors can maintain their blood low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and blood TC concentrations at the optimal level by consuming fish (18.0-93.0 g/day).

In Korea, marine fish landed at ports are randomly sampled on a periodic basis (e.g., daily or weekly), and body sizes (e.g., lengths and weights) of those sampled fish are measured. The motivation for our study is whether or not such measurements reflect the size distribution, especially the length distribution of fish landed (= a population), because such length measurements are key data for a length-based assessment model. The current sampling method is to sample fish landed at ports by body size group (e.g., very small, small, medium, large, very large), using the sampling weights as the number of boxes by body size group. In this study, we showed that length composition data about fish sampled by the current method did not represent the length frequency distribution of the fish landed, and suggested that an alternative sampling method should be applied of using the sampling weights as the number of fish landed by body size group. We also introduced a method for determining an appropriate sample size.

동일연령군의 넙치 치어를 개체 크기별 4개의 group (small group, 체중 $1.3{\pm}0.23g;$ medium group, 체중 $3.1{\pm}0.45g;$ large group, 체중 $4.9{\pm}0.57g;$ ungraded group, 체중 $3.3{\pm}1.66g$)으로 나누어 8주동안 사육하면서 크기 선별이 어류의 성장, 사료효율 및 생존율에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 실험종료시 체중의 분포에 따른 소형 개체(체중 10 g)의 빈도는 크기 선별한 small group에 비해 ungraded group에서 매우 높게 나타났다. 실험 전기간동안의 일일성장률은 small group 및 large group에서 각각 최고치 및 최저치를 보였으며, medium group과 선별 group (small group; medium group; large group)의 pooled data는 ungraded group에 비해 높은 수치의 일일성장률을 나타내었다. (P<0.05). 사료섭취율은 ungraded group이 medium group 및 선별 group의 pooled data에 비해 높았던 반면, 사료효율에 있어서는 ungraded group이 이들에 비해 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 그리고 ungraded group의 생존율은 93.3%로 99.3% 이상으로 나타난 다른 실험구들에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 결론적으로 크기가 작은 넙치는 큰 넙치가 없는 곳에서 유의하게 빠른 성장과 높은 생존율을 나타내었다. 따라서 크기 선별은 넙치 치어(체중 1-5 g)의 성장과 생존율을 향상시키기 위해서 중요한 작업이 될 수 있다.

The modulatory effects of oxytetracycline treatments at high concentrations on the infection potential of scuticociliates in cultured juvenile olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) and density of the ciliates in culturing water were investigated. The groups bathed with 400 and 500 ppm of oxytetracycline showed significantly lower intensities of scuticociliates on the fish and considerably lower number of the ciliates in culturing water when compared with the control group. However, the intensity of scuticociliates on the fish in the group bathed with 300 ppm of oxytetracycline was not significantly different with that of the control group in spite of considerably lower number of scuticociliates in culturing water than in that of the control group. Although the intensities of scuticociliates on the fish intubated orally with 400 and 500 mg/kg of oxytetracycline were lower than that of the control group, there were no statistical significances. In contrast, the fish fed 300 mg/kg of oxytetracycline showed significantly lower intensity of scuticociliates when compared with other groups. The results of this study suggest that oxytetracycline treatments can modulate occurrence of scuticociliatosis in fish farms probably through change of bacterial density, damaging to scuticociliatosis and immuno-suppression of fish.

Rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus) is a highly valued aquaculture species in Korea. However, the aquaculture industry suffers huge economic losses due to rock bream iridovirus (RBIV) infection in summer. The objective of this study was to determine genetic diversity and relationships of DNAs isolated from two groups of rock bream after RBIV infection using five microsatellite (MS) markers. The first group of fish died early and the second group of fish died later after RBIV infection. In this experiment, 90 fish (5.1±1.0 cm and 4.1±1.3 g) were injected with 50 μl of RBIV (10⁴ TCID⁵⁰/ml) and maintained at 26℃ for 15 days. Genomic DNAs were extracted from fins of 20 fish that died earlier or later after RBIV infection. These DNAs were subjected to genotyping using five MS markers (CA-03, CA3-05, CA3-06, CA-10, and CA3-36). Of these markers, CA3-05 (early death group), CA3-06 (late death group), and CA3-36 (both early and late death groups) showed different alleles distribution rates. In-depth studies are needed to provide valuable information for selecting RBIV-resistant fish. In conclusion, microsatellite marker distribution pattern differences between early- and late- death groups of rock bream after RBIV infection showing different RBIV susceptibilities were determined using MS markers and genotyping. Results of this study suggest that MS markers could be used to facilitate the selection of RBIV resistant rock bream.

지방산 식이가 항체 생성력에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 ICR계 마우스를 기본사료만 투여한 대조군, 돈유 투여군, 그리고 정어리유 투여군으로 나눈 다음, 추출한 지방산을 8주동안 경구 투여한 후, 마우스 간조직 중의 지방산 조성 변화, Salmonella typhi에 대한 항체 역가, 복강내 대식세포의 탐식능 및 비장세포의 증식능을 비교 관찰한 결과는 다음과 같다. 대조군에 비하여 돈유 투여군에서는 $C_{18:3}$, $C_{20:3}$, $C_{20:4}$ 등의 지방산이 감소하였고, 정어리 투여군에서는 $C_{18:1}$, $C_{18:2}$, $C_{18:0}$를 제외한 주요 불포화 지방산 성분이 감소되었다. 대식세포의 탐식능에서는 대조군에 비하여 실험군의 대식세포 탐식능이 저하되었고, 마우스 생체 항체 생성력은 돈유 투여군이 대조군 및 정어리유 투여군보다 높은 역가를 나타내었으며, 마우스 비장세포 배양 상층액 중의 항체 역가는 마우스 생체 역가와는 다르게 정어리유 투여군이 더 높은 역가는 나타내었다. 또한 비장세포 증식능은 증시능을 나타내었다. 이러한 차이는 포화, 불포화 지방산 균형 증가에 의하여 면역 억제력이 높아진 결과로 생각되며, 포화 지방산의 투여는 항체 생성력을 현저하게 증가시킬 수는 있으나 면역 억제력은 타나내지 못함을 알 수 있었다.

볼락은 산업적 잠재가치가 높은 어종으로 각광받으면서 양식 가능성에 대한 연구가 일부 진행되어 왔으나, 장내세균에 대한 연구는 미미한 실정이었다. 본 연구에서는 전남 돌산도 연안에서 채집된 자연산 볼락과 양식산 볼락의 장내세균총의 분포와 이들 세균들의 약제 감수성에 대하여 조사하였다. 두 분류의 볼락에서 분리된 균주의 16S rDNA 염기를 바탕으로 장내세균을 동정한 결과, 양식산 볼락의 장내에서는 Photobacterium group, Acinetobacter group과 marine sediment bacteria group이 우점하고 있었고, 자연산 볼락의 장내에서는 Photobacterium group Acinetobacter group, Bacillus group, Shewanella group, Staphylococcus group 및 marine sediment bacteria group이 우점하고 있었다. 자연산과 양식산 볼락의 장내세균의 약제 감수성 결과로는 본 연구에서 사용된 9종의 항균제 중 oxytetracycline와 oxolinic acid는 자연산과 양식산이 비슷한 수준의 감수성 나타냈으나, flumequine, erythromycin, norfloxacin, gentamycin, ofloxacin, enrofloxacin 및 ciprofloxacin은 평균 저지대에서 양식산 볼락의 장내세균이 자연산 볼락의 장내세균 보다 약간 낮은 감수성을 보였으나, 자연산 볼락의 장내세균 또한 감수성 시험 대조균주로 사용한 E. coli ATCC9637 보다 현저하게 낮은 감수성을 보였다. 이는 양식현장에서 사용되고 있는 항균물질이 자연 서식 어류생물군의 장내 세균에도 영향을 미칠 수 있음을 시사한다.

A great many species of fish congregate in schools, reducing the risk of being eaten by predators and giving one of the considerable survival advantages for fishes. Such a fish school is self-organized only due to individual behaviors for matching the speed and direction with the neighboring fishes. It is interesting to simulate these fish school by small robots, because we can understand how the group structure emerges from the interaction among neighboring individuals. We use a nice simulator for Khepera robot presented by Oliver Michel. It is shown that the Khepera simulator is easily applied to fish school due to the algorithm introduced by I Aoki. The simulator includes sensor noise so appropriately that the simulator can be transferred easily to the real environment. The results of simulation are given as follows: (1) The stability as a group is shown by plotting mean deviations from the center of group ...

This study was designed to determine changes of serum glucose and lipid levels in noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus patients during different doses of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-rich fish oil supplementation. All patients had a fasting blood glucose of less than 180mg/dl, a LDL-cholesterol of less than 160mg/dl, and a triglyceride of more than 160mg/dl. None had clinical evidence of renal, hepatic or coronary vascular disease. Sixteen patients served as control. Seven patients ingested 2.00g of fish oil(low dose group), consisting of 0.30g eicosapentaenoic acid(EPA) and 0.55g DHA. The group of modest dose(n=9) was provided 3.91g of fish oil, consisting 0.59g EPA and 1.08g DHA. After 4 weeks, serum triglyceride concentration showed a mild but nonsignificant elevation in control group, a 9% decrease(194 to 177mg/dl) in the group of low dose of fish oil and a 28% decrease(206 to 161mg/dl) in the group of modest dose. The level of high density lipoprotein(HDL), HDL2, HDL3 and total cholesterol in all groups were not changed. There was a mild increase in malondialdehyde and low density lipoprotein(LDL)-cholesterol concentration and decrease in $\alpha$-tocopherol concentration. However, these changes were not significant.

Background: Taurine is a conditional essential amino acid for fish. A study was conducted to investigate the compensating effect of supplemental taurine in diets for red seabream (Pagrus major) on impaired growth performance by fish meal (FM) replacement with soybean meal (SM) at low water temperature (14.15 ± 1.95 ℃). Methods: A FM-based diet was considered as a high FM diet and three other experimental diets were formulated to replace FM with SM by 20, 35, or 50% (HFM, SM20, SM35, or SM50, respectively) without taurine and other four diets were formulated by adding 1% taurine to the diets (HFM-T, SM20-T, SM35-T, or SM50-T, respectively). Triplicate groups of fish (108.9 ± 1.58 g/fish) were distributed into 24 polyvinyl circular tanks (215 L) with 20 fish per tank and fed one of the diets to satiation for 20 weeks. Results: Growth performance and feed utilization of red seabream were significantly improved by the dietary taurine supplementation. SM20-T and SM35-T diets increased fish growth that are comparable to HFM diet. Feed intake, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio of fish fed SM20-T and SM35-T diets were not significantly different from those of HFM group. Dietary taurine supplementation in each FM replaced group numerically increased innate immunity of the fish. Lysozyme and superoxide dismutase activities were significantly decreased in fish fed SM35, SM50, and SM50-T diets compared to those of fish fed HFM diet while they were not significantly lower in SM20, SM20-T, SM35, and SM35-T groups. Glutathione peroxidase activity was significantly lower in fish group fed SM50 diet while SM50-T group did not significantly lower compared to that of HFM group. The relative expression level of hepatic IGF-1 mRNA was improved in fish fed taurine-supplemented diets compared to their respective SM diets. Conclusions: Growth performance and feed utilization of red seabream can be accelerated or restored by 1% taurine supplementation when they are fed high level of SM up to 35% in diets during low water temperature season.
