Feeding values of soybean hulls (SH) were compared to those of wheat bran (WB) for swine diets by chemical compositions, a digestion trial, a preference test by self-selection, and two feeding trials. The SH and the WB appeared to have, on airdry basis, 11.1 vs. 15.4% CP, 32.5 vs. 8.7% crude fiber (CF), 36.8 vs. 10.7% ADF, 0.6 vs. 0.1% Ca, and 492 vs. 92 ppm Fe, respectively. Lysine and total sulfur-containing amino acids in the SH were 0.66 vs. 0.37%, respectively. Apparent digestibility values of the SH were 71% for dry matter, 50% for CP, and 74% for CF. Apparent digestible energy and MEn values of the SH were 2,420 and 2,370 kcal kg$^-1$, respectively, which were comparable to those of the WB, 2,420 and 2,275 kcal kg$^-1$ (NRC, 1998), respectively. The first feeding trial was conducted with 72 crossbred growing pigs with an average weight of 29.6 kg. The pigs when fed the diets containing 0, 6 and 10% SH by replacing the WB on a weight basis for 42 days did not show significant differences in body weight gain and feed/gain ratio among the treatments. The same trends were observed in the second trial with 60 crossbred finishing pigs with an average weight of 64.5 kg when fed the diets containing 12% SH or WB for 41 days. Back-fat thickness and adjusted loin eye muscle area of the finisher pigs were also not significantly different between the two groups. When allowed to self-select from two different feed troughs containing 10% SH or WB for two weeks, two groups of 80 pigs with 10 pigs per pen consumed the two diets exactly in equal proportion. In conclusion, the soybean hulls can be included up to 10 and 12% for growing or finishing pig diets, respectively, replacing the wheat bran on a weight basis without any adverse effects on palatability of diets and animal performances.

A total of 864 broiler chicks were used at Kansas State University and the University of Nebraska to determine the effects of heat treatment of two soybean genotypes on the growth performance. The soybeans were Williams 82 variety with (+K) and without (-K) gene expression for the Kunitz trypsin inhibitor. Heat treatment (autoclaving at $121^{\circ}C$ and $1.1kg/cm^2$) was applied for 0, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 min, resulting in a $2{\times}6$ factorial arrangement of treatments. Station and station treatment effects occurred, indicating that response in nutritional value of the soybean genotypes to heat treatment varied from year to year and location to location. However, the interactions were in magnitude of response rather than direction of response, with greater reductions in trypsin inhibitor concentrations for the soybeans heat processed at the Nebraska location. Pooled data indicated that -K supported greater (p<0.001) ADG, ADFI and gain/feed than the +K genotype. As the length of heat treatment increased, the ADG, ADFI, and the gain/feed ratio increased for chicks fed both soybean genotypes (p<0.0001). However, heating the -K soybeans resulted in a greater response in ADG, ADFI, and gain/feed than heating the +K soybeans (genotype heat treatment interaction, p<0.001). Pancreatic weights (mg pancreas/g of BW) of chicks fed -K soybeans were reduced compared to those from chicks fed +K (p<0.001). Increasing heat treatment decreased pancreas weights in chicks fed both soybean genotypes (p<0.001). Chicks fed heated soybeans in the Nebraska experiment had lower pancreatic weights than chicks fed heated soybeans in the Kansas experiment (station heat treatment interaction, p<0.0001). Chick growth performance was improved and pancreatic weights decreased by feeding raw -K soybeans versus raw +K soybeans, and by increasing heat treatment of both soybean genotypes. However, the response to heat treatment was not independent of genotype. Both +K and -K soybeans heated for 24 min supported similar ADG, ADFI, gain/feed, and pancreas weights, although chicks fed raw +K soybeans had lower growth performance than chicks fed -K soybeans. In conclusion, raw -K soybeans supported greater growth performance in broiler chicks than raw +K soybeans, although this advantage was lost when both soybean genotypes were heated for 24 min. Heat treatment of +K soybeans supported similar growth performance to heated -K soybeans, even though +K soybeans supported lower rates and efficiencies of gain than -K soybeans when fed raw.

란시아이트(ranciéite)는 수화된 Ca²⁺ 양이온이 망간 원자 빈자리를 아래위로 덮고 층간을 채우고 있는 육방정계 층상형 산화망간광물(phyllomanganates)이다. 망간 원자 빈자리를 Mn²⁺ 양이온이 더 우세하게 채우는 경우, 다카네라이트(takanelite)라는 광물로 구분하며, 란시아이트와 다카네라이트는 서로 고용체를 이룬다. 이 광물들은 입자크기가 매우 작고 다른 광물과 함께 산출되기 때문에 실험만으로 정확한 결정구조를 규명하기 어렵다. 이번 연구에서는 층간 Mn²⁺/Ca²⁺ 양이온 비율에 따른 란시아이트-다카네라이트의 결정구조와 층간 구조를 규명하기 위해 고전분자동역학 시뮬레이션(molecular dynamics simulations; MD)을 수행하였다. 연구방법의 적합성을 판단하기 위해 결정구조가 잘 알려진 칼코파나이트 군(chalcophanite group) 광물들에 대해 시뮬레이션 계산을 수행 후 실험 결과와 비교하였다. 이후 층간 양이온 비율에 따른 란시아이트 및 다카네라이트 모델에 대한 MD 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 양이온 함량에 따른 양이온과 물 분자의 분포 및 (001)면간거리를 제시한다.

흉 요추 보조기는 후만증 관련 증상의 진행을 예방하고 통증을 완화시키기 위한 목적으로 노인성 후만증 환자의 재활을 위하여 이용되고 있다. 최근 다양한 형태의 흉 요추 보조기가 개발되고 있으나 생체역학적 효과에 관한 연구가 미흡한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 세 가지 형태 (Type 1, one-connecting frame type; Type 2, two-connecting frame type; Type 3, all-in-one type)의 흉 요추 보조기와 몸통 (trunk)의 유한요소 모델을 구현하여 보조기 착용 후 운동성 변화에 따른 몸통에서의 압력 분포 및 보조기의 응력을 비교 분석하였다. 신전 운동 시 몸통에서 확인되는 압력의 분산은 일체형의 형태를 가지는 Type 3에 의해서 가장 고르게 이루어졌으며 connecting frame 형태의 Type 1과 Type 2의 압력 분포 패턴은 크게 차이가 나지 않았다. 보조기 착용에 따른 몸통의 운동성은 Type 2 ($11.3{\sim}13.9^{\circ}$), Type 1 ($12.1{\sim}15.4^{\circ}$)와 비교하여 Type 3 ($8.5{\sim}9.4^{\circ}$)에 의하여 가장 크게 제한되었다. 모든 Type의 보조기는 20% 미만의 파단 가능성을 보였다. 따라서, 보조기 착용에 따른 등압 분포 및 운동성의 결과로 미루어 볼 때, 일체형의 흉 요추 보조기가 후만증 환자 재활에 있어 높은 효과를 제공할 것으로 사료된다.

An 8 week feeding trial was conducted with 864 ISA Brown laying hens, 48 weeks old, to determine if microbial phytase $(Natuphos^{(R)})$ supplementation can reduce non-phytate phosphorus (NPP) level in laying diets. The experiment consisted of four dietary treatments: T1, control diet with 0.26% NPP (0.55% total P) wand no supplementary phytase; T2, 0.21% NPP (0.50% total P) diet with 250 U of phytase/kg of diet; T3, 0.16% NPP (0.45% total P) diet with 250 U of phytase/kg of diet; and T4, 0.11% NPP (0.40% total P) diet with 250 U of phytase/kg of diet. T3 showed the highest egg production and egg weight and the lowest feed conversion while T4 gave the lowest egg production and the highest feed conversion and mortality. Daily feed consumption ranged from 130.4 g (T4) to 132.7 g (T2). T1 and T2 were not significantly different in the production parameters. Eggshell strength, egg specific gravity, and eggshell thickness were not significantly different among treatments. However, broken egg ratio was significantly lower in T2 and T4 than in T1. Retentions of Ca, P, Mg, and Cu were greater in phytase supplemented treatments (T2, T3, and T4) than the control (T1), and those in T3 and T4 were greater than in T2. Excretions of P in phytase supplemented treatments (T2, T3, and T4) were significantly (p<0.05) smaller than in T1 but excretions of N were not significantly different among the treatments. Contents of ash in tibiae were not significantly affected by treatments, but contents of Ca, P, Mg, and Zn was increased and that of Cu decreased by phytase supplementation. It is concluded that the NPP concentration in the diet of Brown layers consuming about 130 g/d of feed can be safely lowered from 0.26% (0.55% total P) to 0.16% (0.45% total P). The excretion of P was reduced by the inclusion of 250 U phytase/kg of diet.

Objective: This study was an attempt to investigate the effect of levels of fungal (Lentinus sajor-caju) treated oil palm fronds (FTOPF) on digestibility, rumen fermentation, and nitrogen balance in goats. Methods: Four 16 month old male crossbred (Thai Native${\times}$Anglo Nubian) goats with initial body weights of $33.5{\pm}1.7kg$ were randomly assigned according to a $4{\times}4$ Latin square design. Four levels of FTOPF were assigned for feed intake. The experimental treatments consisted of 0%, 33%, 67%, and 100% of oil palm fronds (OPF) being replaced by FTOPF. Results: The results revealed that total dry matter intake and nutrient intake were not influenced (p>0.05) by the inclusion of FTOPF. However, the efficiency values of the digestibility of the dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber, and acid detergent lignin on FTOPF were higher (p<0.05) in treatments with 33%, 67%, and 100% of FTOPF compared with 0% of FTOPF. FTOPF feeding did not change the rumen pH, temperature, and $NH_3-N$. However, the FTOPF levels did affect the total volatile fatty acid (VFA), molar proportion of acetate, propionate, butyrate, ratio of acetic (propionic acid and acetic) plus butyric (propionic acid), and production of $CH_4$. The totals of VFA and propionate was lower in goat fed with 0% of FTOPF than in those of the other groups (p<0.05). The amount of nitrogen retention based on g/d/animal or the percentage of nitrogen retained was the lowest the goat fed with 0% of FTOPF (p<0.05), whereas nitrogen intake, excretion, and absorption were not changed among treatments. Conclusion: Based on this study, FTOPF could be effectively used as an alternative roughage source in total mixed ration diets, constituting at least up to 100% of OPF.

Objective: This study investigated the effects of oral administration of rumen-protected L-tryptophan (RPL-T) on duodenal starch digestion and gastrointestinal hormones (GIH) secretions using Hanwoo beef steers as the animal models. Methods: Four steers (423±24 kg) fitted with ruminal and duodenal cannulas were employed in a crossover design replicated twice. Treatments were control (basal diet) and RPL-T (basal diet+191.1 mg/kg body weight [BW]) group. Blood and duodenal samples were collected to measure serum GIH levels and pancreatic α-amylase activity at day 0, 1, 3, and 5 (-30, 30, 90, 150, and 210 min) of the study. Samples from each segment of the gastrointestinal tract were collected via ruminal and duodenal cannulas and were used to determine soluble protein and the starch digestion rate at days 6 (-30, 180, 360, and 540 min) and 8 (-30, 90, 270, and 450 min) of the experiment. Results: No significant difference in ruminal pH, NH₃-N, and total volatile fatty acid including the levels of acetate, propionate, butyrate, isobutyrate, valerate, isovalerate, and the acetate-to-propionate ratio was observed between groups (p>0.05). Crude protein uptake was higher and feces starch content was lower in RPL-T group than the control group (p<0.05). The D-glucose contents of feces in RPL-T group decreased at day 5 compared to those in the control group (p<0.05), however, no change was found at day 0, 1, or 3 compared to the control group (p>0.05). Serum cholecystokinin (CCK), melatonin, duodenal pancreatic α-amylase activity, and starch digestion were significantly higher in RPL-T group than the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Taken together, oral administration of RPL-T at the rate of 191.1 mg/kg BW consistently increased CCK concentration, pancreatic α-amylase activity in duodenal fluids, and starch digestion rate in the small intestine and thus found to be beneficial.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of dietary ${\beta}$-mannanase supplementation and palm kernel meal (PKM) inclusion (5%) on laying performance, egg quality and nutrient utilizability of laying hens with 73 weeks of age. A total of 240 Lohmann brown laying hens with average 77.5% egg production were randomly allocated with 60 hens per treatment, 4 replicates per treatment and 15 hens per replicate. Experimental design was a completely randomized design with $2{\times}2$ factorial arrangement, with the factors being (1) two levels of PKM (0 vs. 5%) and (2) with or without dietary ${\beta}$-mannanase (480 IU/kg of diet CTCzyme$^{(R)}$) supplementation. All hens were housed in cages ($35cmW{\times}35cmD{\times}40cmH$) with 2 hens per cage for six weeks feeding trial. Laying performance was recorded daily during feeding trial. Egg quality, nutrients utilizability and blood assays were done at the end of feeding trial. Egg production was improved (P<0.05) by both dietary PKM inclusion and ${\beta}$-mannanase combined supplementation. Either ${\beta}$-mannanase or PKM did not affect feed intakes and feed conversion ratio of all diets. Egg weight of hens fed diet containing 5% of PKM had heavier (P<0.05) eggs compared with hens fed without PKM. Albumen height was improved (P<0.05) by dietary mannanase supplementation. Crude fat utilization of 5% PKM diet was higher than that of no PKM diet regardless of ${\beta}$-mannanase supplementation. Both DM and total carbohydrate utilization were decreased (P<0.05) in hens fed 5% PKM diet. Serum IgG and yolk IgY contents of PKM groups were lower (P<0.05) than those of no PKM groups. This result showed that 5% PKM diet, independent of dietary ${\beta}$-mannanase supplementation, was able to improve egg production. In addition, dietary ${\beta}$-mannanase supplementation could be used for improving the albumen height of eggs.

유망한 신규 합성 제초제 후보화합물 KSC-13906의 제초 활성과 특성을 온실 시험과 야외 폿트 및 포장 시험을 통하여 조사한 결과, KSC의 살초 스펙트럼은 넓어 사마귀풀과 밭뚝외풀을 제외한 7초종(피, 올챙이고랭이, 물달개비, 너도방동사니, 올미, 올방개, 가래, 벗풀)에 대하여 $2.5{\sim}5$ g ai/ha의 처리량에서도 90% 이상 방제하였다. 또한 기존의 sulfonylurea계 제초제들과는 달리 특이적으로 3엽기까지의 피에 대한 방제효과가 우수하였다. 벼에 대한 약해시험 결과 직파벼 3엽기 이후, 벼 이앙 10일 이후 처리하는 것이 바람직하였다. 야외 폿트 시험결과 $3{\sim}5$ g ai/ha로 5 DAT에 처리하였을 때 발생초종을 완전히 방제하였으며, 포장시험에서는 3 g ai/ha의 KSC-13906을 이앙 후 5, 10, 15일에 처리하여도 잡초방제효과는 모두 90% 이상으로 우수하였다. 특히 피에 대한 방제효과는 100%로 나타났으며, 대조약제 PYR의 21 g ai/ha와 유사한 잡초방제효과를 나타내었다. 다년생 잡초중에서 올방개에 대한 살초효과는 처리시기에 관계없이 탁월하였다. KSC-13906을 직파벼에 사용하고자 할 경우에는 제제형태를 변화시키거나 약해경감제를 사용하여 직파벼에 대한 안전성을 제고시키지 않으면 안될 것으로 판단되었다. 신규 시험화합물 KSC-13906의 직파벼에 대한 약해를 제거시킬 수 있다면 처리 폭이 넓은 강력한 신규 논제초제로 개발될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
