Exposure experiments during the egg development were conducted to assess the influences of 5 different concentrations (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%) of water-soluble fraction (WSF) of Kuwait crude oil on the eggs and larvae of black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegeli), red seabream (Pagrus major) and olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). All experiments were triplicated. Hatching time and hatching rate were examined on the eggs. The median lethal time ($LT_{50}$), morphological abnormality and swimming activity (swimming frequency and speed) of larvae were also investigated. The time and rate of egg hatching were not significantly influenced by WSF on the eggs of the fishes. The larvae exposed to WSF during the egg development were also not significantly influenced on the $LT_{50}$ and swimming activity. But the higher morphological abnormalities of notochord were observed from the larvae in 100% WSF exposure.

본 연구는 인위적으로 배란시킨 뱀장어 Anguilla japonica 배란란의 과숙특징을 생화학적으로 밝히고, 과숙을 방지하기 위한 하나의 방법을 제시하였다. 사용된 뱀장어 성숙란의 수정률과 부화율, 부화 후 3, 10일 후 생존율과의 관계는 Y=0.7954X+32.448($R^2=0.8176$, P=6.35E-7), Y=1.0241X-26.401($R^2=0.8121$, P=5.95E-27) 및 Y=0.9314X-24.814($R^2=0.7619$, P=7.33E-14)였다. DNA 함량은 부화율의 감소와 함께 20% 이하의 부화율을 보이는 배란란에서 유의적으로 가장 낮은 0.653 pg/ug protein을 보였다(P<0.05). 그리고 이들의 비는 부화율이 20% 이하의 난에서 1.058로 유의적으로 가장 높은 비를 보였다(P<0.05). 또한 부화율에 따른 total alkaline protease와 ACPase 활성은 모든 부화율 범위에서 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다(P>0.05). 단백질 함량은 부화율 20% 이하 배란란에서 유의적으로 가장 높은 186.16 ug/mg eggs의 함량을 보였다(P<0.05). 따라서 뱀장어의 과숙란은 지속적인 단백질의 공급으로 정상란의 과숙화를 촉진하여 부화율이 저하된다. 결국 세포는 과숙으로 인해서 죽었기 때문에, 간에서 생성된 난황단백질의 공급을 차단하거나 공급속도를 늦추어서 복강 내 배란 후 과숙을 방지해야 할 것으로 판단된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of incubation methods and transfer timings on the hatching rate of fertilized eggs of the river puffer Takifugu obscurus. Four incubation methods were tested, a) control (fertilized eggs attached to the glass plate), b) bottom (fertilized eggs spread on the bottom of the tank without any treatment), c) S-bottom (removing the stickiness of the fertilized eggs, and then spreading the eggs on the bottom of the tank), and d) incubator (removing the stickiness of the fertilized eggs, and then incubating the eggs in an incubator). Additionally, four transfer timings were tested: a) control (no transfer from the incubation tank), b) zygote (fertilized eggs transferred at the zygote stage), c) segmentation (fertilized eggs transferred at the segmentation stage), and d) pharygula (fertilized eggs transferred at the pharygula state). The results showed that the hatching rate of incubator was significantly higher than those of control, bottom, and glass (P<0.05). The results also showed that the hatching rates of control and pharygula were significantly higher than those of zygote and segmentation (P<0.05).

This study was performed to investigate the effect of laser-assisted hole in the zona pellucida (ZP) of frozen-thawed ICR mouse embryos on the process of hatching that is critical for expanded blastocysts to implant into endometrium, Vitrification medium, composed of ethylene glycol and sucrose supplemented with 7.5% (w/v) PVP, was used to freeze $2{\sim}4$ cell stage embryos recovered from oviducts of superovulated and mated female mice before storing them in $LN_2$. Right after thawing them, a laser beam was shot to make a hole in ZP followed by culturing in KSOM for $96{\sim}120\;hr$ and examining development to blastocyst and hatching every 12 hr. Laser-treated embryos showed significantly higher hatching rate compared to control (92.9% vs. 22.1%, p<0.05). From around Day 4, blastocysts developed from laser-treated embryos started hatching while the blastocysts of control group failed to hatch showing a lot of shrinkage. This study shows that a laser-assisted hole in ZP improves the hatching rate of blastocysts developed from frozen-thawed, in vitro cultured ICR mouse embryos.

본 연구는 부화 온도가 맹꽁이(Kaloula borealis) 알의 부화 기간에 영향을 미치는 여부를 알아보기 위해 수행되었다. 본 연구에서 맹꽁이 알에서 올챙이가 생긴 것을 기준으로 알 부화 과정을 기록했다. 연구 결과 맹꽁이의 모든 알은 산란 후 48시간 이내에 부화하였으며, 28.1%(±10.8, n=52)가 24시간 이내에, 99.9%(±0.23, n=49)가 산란 후 48시간 이내에 부화했다. 수온의 차이에 따라 맹꽁이 알의 평균 부화율은 유의미한 차이를 나타냈다. 산란 후 15~24시간 사이의 평균 부화율은 24.1(±0.2)℃보다 21.1(±0.2)℃의 수온에서 더 높았다. 본 연구 결과는 비교적 낮은 수온에서 빠른 부화가 되는데 이는 비가 오는 계절에 일시적인 연못이나 웅덩이에 알을 낳는 번식 습성으로 웅덩이가 마르기 전에 빠른 부화가 필요하기 때문으로 추측한다. 본 연구 결과는 멸종위기종인 맹꽁이 알의 최적 부화온도를 이해하는데 도움이 된다.

Hatching occurred in the time dependent manners and strictly controlled. Although, the hatching processes are under the control of muti-embryotrophic factors and the expressed G proteins of cell generate integrated activation, the knowledge which GPCRs are expressed during hatching stage embryos are very limited. In the present study, which G proteins are involved was examined during blastocyst development to the hatching stage. The early-, expanded-, and lobe-stage blastocysts were treated with various $G_{\alpha}$ activators and H series inhibitors, and examined developmental patterns. Pertusis toxin (PTX) improved the hatching rate of the early-stage blastocyst and lobe-formed embryos. Cholera toxin (CTX) suppressed the hatching of the early-stage blastocyst and expanded embryos. The effects of toxins on hatching and embryo development were changed by the H7 and H8. These results mean that PTX mediated GPCRs activation is signaling generator in the nick or pore formation in the ZP. In addition, PTX mediated GPCR activation induces the locomotion of trophectoderm for the escaping. CTX mediate GPCRs activation is the cause of suppression of hatching processes. Based on these data, it is suggested that various GPCRs are expressed in the periimplantation stage embryos and the integration of the multiple signals decoding of various signals in a spatial and temporal manner regulate the hatching process.

White Spot Baculovirus(WSBV) 미감염 새우 건강 종묘를 생산하기 위하여 난의 요오드 소독을 실시하였다. 유효 요오드농도 20,50,100,200 ppm에서 각 시험구의 대하(Penaeus chinensis) 수정난을 각각 30,60초 처리한 결과 각 농도의 30초 처리구에서는 50%이상의 상대부화율을 보였고, 60초 처리구에서는 20ppm 처리구에서만 약 50% 상대 부화율을 보인 반면 50 ppm이상에서는 부화율이 거의 없었다. 보리새우(Penaeus japoni cus)에서도 비슷한 결과를 보였다. 대하의 경우 세란만 실시한 대조구의 부화율은 33.3%이었지만, 보리새우는 55.2%로 상대적으로 높았다. 부화후 생존율을 보면 수정난의 소독으로 부화율은 낮아지지만 수정란 소독후 부화된 유생은 초기생육에는 문제점이 없었다. WSBV 미감염 건강종묘를 생산하기 위해서는 수정난을 세척하고 저농도의 요오드를 짧은 시간에 소독해야 한다.

Background: In the present study, various freezing containers were tested for mouse embryos of respective developmental stages; embryos were vitrified and then their survival rate and developmental rate were monitored. Mouse two cell, 8 cell, and blastula stage embryos underwent vitrification freezing-thawing and then their recovery rate, survival rate, development rate, and hatching rate were investigated. Methods: EM-grid, OPS, and cryo-loop were utilized for vitrification freezing-thawing of mouse embryos. Results: It was found that recovery rate and survival rate were higher in the group of cryo-loop compared to those of EM-grid (p < 0.05). Embryonic development rate, two cell embryos to blastocyst, as well as hatching rate were higher in the control group compared to the EM-grid group and OPS group (p < 0.05), yet no difference was noted between the control group and cryo-loop group. Development rate and hatching rate of eight cell morulae and blastocysts were all lower in the treatment groups than the control group whilst hatching rate of blastocysts was higher in the control group compared to the groups of EM-grid and OPS (p < 0.05); although the cryo-loop group was shown to be slightly higher than other groups, it was not statistically significant. Conclusions: In the study, we investigate effects of freezing containers on vitrified embryos of respective developmental stages; it was demonstrated that higher developmental rate was shown in more progressed (or developed) embryos with more blastomeres. There was however, no difference in embryonic development rate was shown amongst containers. Taken together, further additional studies are warranted with regards to 1) manipulation techniques of embryos for various vitrification freezing containers and 2) preventive measures against contamination via liquid nitrogen.

Most female Great Tits lay one egg each day until the clutch is complete. However, some exceptions are found. “Pause day/s” most frequently occur after the 1st egg is laid. In general, egg-size increase with laying sequence, but there is year-to-year variation. The relationship between egg size and laying sequence is found more significantly in relatively larger clutches than in smaller ones. Great Tits tend to advance the hatching of their chicks by starting to incubate earlier in relation to clutch completion as the breeding season progresses. hatching asynchrony affects chick´s growth rate, but when the effect of laying date on hatching asynchrony is controlled, the effect of hatching asynchrony on growth rate is not found. These findings support the ´hurry-up´ hypothesis.
