An experiment was conducted to establish a large scale production method of anti-serum against chicken IgA and to profile the developmental changes of serum IgA levels during the feeding period(from hatching to 7 weeks of age) in broiler chicks. Blood samples were taken from Hubbard chicken at the age of hatching, 3 days of age, and weekly thereafter till to 7 weeks of age. The pure IgA was isolated from ammonium sulfate treated chicken bile juice by gel filtration chromatography ( Sepharose GL-6B) - The quantitative assay of serum IgA were carried by RID method. Developmental changes of serum IgA concentrations were 0.42 mg /mL at hatching, thereafter dicreased gradually, lowest at 1 week of age(0.17 mg /mL), and gradually increased to 7 weeks of age(2.73 mg /mL). There was no sexual difference in serum IgA level, but female chicks showed higher IgA levels than male chicks during the experimental period.

Newly hatched black porgy larvae (Acanthopagrus schlegeli) swam to the surface, with the mouth and anus still closed and were 1.90-2.11 mm (mean, 2.0 mm) in total length (TL). The larvae were 2.71-2.94 mm TL (mean, 2.82 mm) on day 2 after hatching. At this time, about two-thirds of the yolk was absorbed, the bladder and intestines had formed, and the mouth and anus were open. Total length was 4.32-4.66 mm (mean, 4.45 mm) at the post-larval stage on days 5-6 after hatching, and the yolk and oil globule were almost absorbed. The end of the notochord began to flex, and 6-8 caudal fin rays were visible. The larvae were 15.37-16.1 mm TL (mean, 15.83 mm) at the juvenile stage on days 30-32 after hatching, and the number of rays in all fins was completely revealed.

The egg development and early life history of Korean spotted sleeper, Odontobutis interrupta which is Korean endemic species from Sora-choen was investigated. The Korean spotted sleeper were caught at Sora-myeon, Yeosu-si, Jeollanamdo, from Korea at May in 2014. The fertilized eggs were $4.23{\pm}0.05mm$ in long diameter and had oil globules. Hatching time of the embryo began about 442 hr 14 min after fertilization under water temperature of $19.5^{\circ}C$. The newly hatched larvae were $4.27{\pm}0.35mm$ in total length and their anus were not yet opened. 3 days after hatching postlarvae was measured $6.20{\pm}0.11mm$ in total length. 10 days after hatching postlarvae was measured $6.69{\pm}0.14mm$ in total length.

Variations of larval abundance and hatch timing of Dungeness crabs, Cancer magister Dana 1852, were investigated. Dungeness crab larvae were monthly collected at 16 stations arrayed in four transects, Upper Chatham, Icy Strait, Cross Sound, and Icy Point, in southeastern Alaska from May to September 1997-2004. Larval abundance at all transects was the highest in June except in the Icy Point transect. Larval abundance was the highest in the Icy Strait transect, moderate in the Upper Chatham and Cross Sound transects, and the lowest in the Icy Point transect. Zoeae I(ZI) was predominated in May; thereafter ZI decreased and late zoeal stages occurred. In May and June, small numbers of late stage larvae unusually co-occurred with ZI in three transects. These late stage larvae may have been transported from where hatching occurs earlier. The timing of ZI occurrence varied interannually and was related to degreedays during the egg incubation period of Dungeness crabs: later larval hatching in 1997 and 2002 when temperatures were colder, while earlier larval hatching in 1998 when temperatures were warmer. The distribution patterns of Dungeness crab larvae in southeastern Alaska were markedly different from those reported from other areas of the species distribution ranges: larvae occurring much later in the year, and late stage larvae occurring in inland waters.

Recently, automatic control or application of measuring instrument with computers is rapidly increasing. In this paper we designed automatic incubation system that has functions of control and monitoring of measuring instrument, analysis of measured data, and automatic control by using LabVIEW graphic program that can easily collect, control, analyze, and apply data. Then to inspect the system we produced Incubator. Internal environment is measured by a sensor and each device is setting and controlled to create the optimum environment after finding hatching environment of selected individual from Database file for incubation. Through this functions, problems of hatching rate and quality that were affected by minute change of hatching environment are dealt successfully with, and retrenchment of labor and cost is expected as well.

Objective: The study was performed to compare the survival rate and the development of day 2 mouse embryos which had freezing procedures done. Methods: We used three different vitrification solutions (EFS, VS14, DPS) and a ultrarapid freezing solution (UFS) for cryopreservation of day 2 mouse embryo. Results: We tested toxicity by exposing embryos to vitirification solutions and a ultrarapid freezing solution. The survival rates are 100%, 97.8%, 95.6% and 100% (EFS, VS14, DPS and UFS). After cultured for 96 hours, hatching rates of each group are 93.5% (no freezing), 95.6% (EFS), 86.4% (VS14), 93.0% (DPS), and 93.0% (UFS). There is no significant differences among groups. The survival rates after thawing cryopreserved embryos are 80.2%, 91.7%, 69.5%, 0% and 91.8% (slow freezing, EFS, VS14, DPS and UFS). Also cultured for 96 hours, the hatching rates are 93.5% (no freezing), 84.1% (slow freezing), 93.9% (EFS), 48.5% (VS14) and 70.1% (UFS). Conclusion: The survival rates of vitrification in EFS solution and ultrarapid freezing are higher than slow freezing (p<0.05). The hatching rate of vitrification in EFS solution cultured for 96 hours is highest, so vitrification of day 2 mouse embryos in EFS solution considered as more effective for cryopreservation.

This stduy was carried out to obtain basic information available on ovulation, spawning, fertilization rate, hatching rate, and deformity rate after hCG injection in cyprinid loach, Misgurnus mizolepis. The results obtained in these experiments were as follows: 1. Ovulation and spawning occurred simultaneously and spawing was completed within 1 hour after ovulation. 2. More than 80% of fertilization rates appeared within 12 hours at 21$^{\circ}C$, 8 hours at $25^{\circ}C$, and 4 hours at 29$^{\circ}C$, respectively, following the onset of spawing. Afterwards, the fertilization rates of released eggs sharply decreased in three different water temperatures. 3. More than 70% of hatching rates appeared within 8 hours at 21$^{\circ}C$, 6 hours at $25^{\circ}C$, and 2 hours at 29$^{\circ}C$, respectively, following the onset of spawing. Afterwards, hatching rates of spawned eggs abruptly decreased in three different water temperatures. 4. The deformity rates of hatched larvae were high at $25^{\circ}C$, 8 hours following the onset of spawing. 5. Based on the developmental ability of oocytes, the optimum time of fertilization was 4 hours (stage 5) following the onset of spawing.

This study was attempted to develop a rearing method of the tick(Haemaphysalis longicornis) at the laboratory in winter. The rearing conditions for ticks in winter were summarized as follows; Even in the winter, under controlled Incubator on 25~3$0^{\circ}C$ and 90~95%, temperature and humidity, respectively, it is possible to rear the ticks normally as on summer. in the usual laboratory room temperature and humidity, 20~$25^{\circ}C$ and 51 ~77%. In the ticks collected in summer, the life span of the ticks, from hatching to death, was 91～129(112.8$\pm$15.2) days in the lagoratory, and the number of the oviposited eggs from a tick were about 1,680~2,460 and the hatching rate of the oviposited eggs was about 95(92~98)%. The life span of the ticks which were reared in the laboratory in winter was 89-138(112.2$\pm$21.1) days, and the number of the oviposited eggs from the tick were about 1,382~2,674 and the hatching rate of them was about 89.5(87~92)%. In the rearing of the tick at the laboratory, the dogs, rabbits and mice were able to use the hosts for the tick. The proper temperature to feed the ticks on the cattle in the cold season was obtained by $Hokalong^{\circledR}$ which were attached on the out side of sac which covered bovine ear where attached ticks.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the development of Coreoleuciscus splendidus egg and larvae morphology in the Ungcheon-stream. C. splendidus eggs were round and ranged in size from 1.86-2.01 mm (mean $1.91{\pm}0.14mm$). Immediately after hatching, the larvae had egg yolk in the abdomen with a total length of 5.27-6.63 mm (mean $5.95{\pm}0.96mm$). On the 10 days after hatching, the latter was 8.44-8.65 mm (mean $8.54{\pm}0.14mm$) in total length, and 5 dorsal fin rays were formed in dorsal fin and 8 caudal fin soft rays were formed in caudal fin. At 88 days after hatching, total length was 26.2-25.7 mm (mean $25.9{\pm}0.35mm$), and scales were formed throughout the body. The fin rays of each part were iii.7 in dorsal fin and iii.6 in anal fin, and finally the external form was the same as the adult fish.

This study was carried out to clarify the egg, larvae and juveniles development of Misgurnus anguillicaudatus, and relationships of M. anguillicaudatus and M. mizolepis, Cobitididae Fishes. The adult fishes were collected in Samsan-cheon, Haenam-gun, Jeollanam-do, Korea and their spawning inducement was carried by ovaprim injections. The egg shape was circular and the size was average 1.12 mm. The eggs were hatched at 61 to 72 h after fertilization. The newly hatched larvae had an average 3.23 mm in total length (TL). At 5 days after hatching, the larvae reached to post larval stage and they were 10.3 mm in TL. At 19 days after hatching, it reached to juvenile stage and was 25.3 mm in TL. The egg size of M. anguillicaudatus was almost same as M. mizolepis but the hatching period of M. anguillicaudatus has taken longer. It was possible for interspecific distinguishability of M. anguillicaudatus and M. mizolepis when their larvae reached to juvenile stage by the development of keel-like ridges.
