  • The objects of this experiment was to investigate the effect of dietary several supplemental probiotics on performance and intestinal microflora of Lohmann brown laying hens from 68 to 80 weeks. Basal diets based on corn and soybean meal contained 18.0% CP and 2,720㎉/kg ME. Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus salvarius isolated from piglet(LSP) were fed at the level of 0.1 and 0.2% in a one way design. There were four replicates of 40 hens each per treatment. Egg production, feed intake, feed conversion ratio(FCR), eggshell quality were measured at every four weeks and intestinal microflora were examined at the end of experiment. Egg production of bird fed 0.2% individual probiotics was significantly higher than that of control(P 0.05). Birds fed the diet containing 0.2% LSC and LSP had significantly lower FCR than other treatments(P 0.05). However, egg weight of birds fed control and 0.2% BS diet showed higher than other treatments. Feed intake of 0.2% BS and 0.1% LSP treatment was significantly higher than other treatments, but was not consistency of all treatments(P 0.05). Eggshell breaking strength and thickness of hens fed probiotics tended to increase compared to that of control, but was not significantly different. Intestinal anaerobes, Lactobacillus spp. and yeast of hens fed all tested probiotics were significantly increased compared to those of control. The number of intestinal E. coli of all probiotics treatments except 0.1% LSP tended to decrease. Intestinal Lactobacillus spp. was increased significantly by 0.1% dietary LSC, whereas intestinal yeast showed significant increase in LSP treatments(P〈0.05). The results of this experiment indicated that feeding probiotics to laying hens improved the egg production, FCR and increased beneficial microflora.

  • The present study has been conducted to analyse the effects of various pool diameters on the measurement of heat release rate (HRR) of heptane fire using large scale cone calorimeter (LSC). The burning rate which is the major parameter for HRR compared with the previous model suggested by A. Hamins. The combustion efficiency for heptane by oxygen consumption method is about 91%, which is almost same with the previous results of 92% suggested by J. Gore. The convective HRR by enthalpy consumption method was 54% lower than HRR by oxygen consumption method. This results are practical use for establishing the reliability of heat release rate for fire experiment.

  • As the single chamber SOFC(SC-SOFC) showed higher prospect on reducing the operation temperature as well as offering higher design flexibility of SOFCs, lots of concerns have been given to investigate the catalytic activity of perovskite-type oxide in mixed fuel and oxidant conditions. Hence we thoroughly investigated the catalytic property of various perovskite-type oxides such as $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}MnO_3(LSM),\;La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}CoO_3(LSC),\;La_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}Co_{0.2}Fe_{0.8}O_3(LSCF),\;Sm_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_3(SSC),\;and\;Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}Co_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}(BSCF)$ under the partial oxidation condition of methane which used to be given for SC-SOFC operation. In this study, powder form of each perovskite oxides whose surface areas were controlled to be equal, were investigated as functions of methane to oxygen ratios and reactor temperature. XRD, BET and SEM were employed to characterize the crystalline phase, surface area and microstructure of prepared powders before and after the catalytic oxidation. According to the gas phase analysis with flow-through type reactor and gas chromatography system, LSC, SSC, and LSCF showed higher catalytic activity at fairly lower temperature around $400^{\circ}C{\sim}450^{\circ}C$ whereas LSM and BSCF could be activated at much higher temperature above $600^{\circ}C$.

  • Objective : The technique of short segment pedicle screw fixation (SSPSF) has been widely used for stabilization in thoracolumbar burst fractures (TLBFs), but some studies reported high rate of kyphosis recurrence or hardware failure. This study was to evaluate the results of SSPSF including fractured level and to find the risk factors concerned with the kyphosis recurrence in TLBFs. Methods : This study included 42 patients, including 25 males and 17 females, who underwent SSPSF for stabilization of TLBFs between January 2003 and December 2010. For radiologic assessments, Cobb angle (CA), vertebral wedge angle (VWA), vertebral body compression ratio (VBCR), and difference between VWA and Cobb angle (DbVC) were measured. The relationships between kyphosis recurrence and radiologic parameters or demographic features were investigated. Frankel classification and low back outcome score (LBOS) were used for assessment of clinical outcomes. Results : The mean follow-up period was 38.6 months. CA, VWA, and VBCR were improved after SSPSF, and these parameters were well maintained at the final follow-up with minimal degree of correction loss. Kyphosis recurrence showed a significant increase in patients with Denis burst type A, load-sharing classification (LSC) score >6 or DbVC >6 (p<0.05). There were no patients who worsened to clinical outcome, and there was no significant correlation between kyphosis recurrence and clinical outcome in this series. Conclusion : SSPSF including the fractured vertebra is an effective surgical method for restoration and maintenance of vertebral column stability in TLBFs. However, kyphosis recurrence was significantly associated with Denis burst type A fracture, LSC score >6, or DbVC >6.

  • The genus Cenchrus (Poaceae), containing ca. 23 species, is distributed throughout Australia, Africa, Indian sub-continent, and America. In Korea, Cenchrus longispinus (Hack.) Fernald, especially introduced to Daecheong Island in 1999, is one of the most hazardous invasive plant which causes serious environmental threats, biodiversity damages and physically negative impact on humans and animals. Based on the next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology, we characterized the chloroplast (cp) genome sequences of C. longispinus which contains a large single copy (LSC; 80,223 bp), a small single copy (SSC; 12,449 bp), separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs; 22,236 bp). Additionally, we analyzed the cp genome sequences of Cenchrus echinatus L. which contains a large single copy (LSC; 80,220 bp), a small single copy (SSC; 12,439 bp), separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs; 22,236 bp). These cp genomes consist of 75 unique genes, 4 rRNA coding genes, 33 tRNA coding genes and 21 duplicated in the IR regions, of which the gene content and organization are similar to the other Poaceae cp genomes. We selected 40 potential regions in cp genomes of two Cenchrus species and one Korean Pennisetum species to develop new single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers for identifying C. longispinus based on amplification-refractory mutation system (ARMS) technique. The markers, inferred from SNP in matK and ndhF genes, show effectiveness to recognize C. longispinus from C. echinatus and Korean native species Pennisetum alopecuroides (L.) Spreng.

  • 제비꽃속 34분류군의 61개체를 대상으로 엽록체 DNA 게놈 특이 유전자의 특징을 알아보고자 하였다. 61개체의 엽록체 게놈 전체 길이는 155,535~158,940 bp 로 모두 전형적인 사분할 구조였다. 지역별로는 LSC 지역이 84,826~87,250 bp, SSC 지역이 16,338~18,654 bp, 그리고 IR 지역이 26,029~27,192 bp 였다. 유전자 개수는 131개로 84개 protein coding-gene, 37개 tRNA 유전자, 8개 rRNA유전자, 그리고 2개의 유사유전자인 𝜓rps19, 𝜓ycf1으로 구성되어 있었다. LSC/IRa 경계에 위치한 rps19 유전자 길이는 279 bp로 모든 분류군에서 동일하였으며, 𝜓rps19의 길이는 다양했으나 유전자 개수에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. SSC/IRb 경계에 위치한 ycf1 유전자 길이는 약 5,600 bp 였으나, V. japonica (MZ151699) 1개체에서는 다른 종에 비해 약 1,000 bp 위치에서 발생한 점돌연변이로 인해 종결 코돈이 나타나는 특징을 보였다. 한편 13분류군의 23개체에서는 𝜓ycf1의 길이가 650 bp 정도 짧은 것을 확인하였는데, 이 종류들은 원예종인 V. tricolor (ON262802) 이외에는 모두 줄기가 없는 분류군들로 IR 지역의 확장과 SSC 지역의 수축에 의한 것으로 판단된다. ndhF는 대체로 SSC 지역에 위치하나, V. inconspicua (MZ065354), V. mongolica (MW802534, ON548135), V. yunnanfuensis (MW802541) 등 4개체에서는 IRa/SSC 경계에 위치하면서 유사유전자가 발생하였고, 그 결과 다른 제비꽃 종류에 비해 유전자 개수가 132개로 차이를 보였다. 또한, V. collina (OP271831), V. mirabilis (MH256000), V. tricolor (ON262802) 등 3분류군에서는 SSC 지역이 inversion 되어 엽록체 이성질체가 존재함을 확인하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하면, 제비 꽃속 엽록체 게놈 61개체의 ycf1, 𝜓ycf1, ndhF, 𝜓ndhF 등은 유전자 길이와 개수 등에 차이를 보이는 것으로 나타났으며, 제비꽃속에서도 엽록체 이성질체가 존재함을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • 다수의 모듈로 구성된 반응형 시스템을 개발하기 위해 외부의 입력 및 모듈간의 상호작용을 분석하는 것은 중요하고 어려운 문제이며, 반응형 시스템이 요구 사항을 올바르게 만족하는지를 확인하기 위해서는 많은 시간과 비용이 소모가 된다. 본 논문에서는 요구 사항을 LSC(Live Sequence Chart)를 이용해 시나리오 기반 명세 모델을 만들고 Synthesis를 통해 요구 사항을 모두 올바르게 만족하는 시스템 모델을 자동으로 생성한다. 궁극적으로 올바른 시스템 모델로부터 의미적으로 동일한 코드로 변환하는 과정을 보이는 것으로 시나리오 기반 명세 모델로부터 반응형 시스템을 개발하는 방법을 제안한다.

  • Identification of spermatogonial stern cell-specific surface molecules is important in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying the maintenance and differentiation of these cells. We have found that spermatogonia from busulfan treated mice expressed an autoantigen that distinguishes between undifferentiated and differentiated spermatogonia. Four to six weeks after busulfan treatment, germ cells located in the basal compartment of seminiferous epithelium show isotype-specific IgG deposits that form due to autoimmunity. (omitted)

  • Precise regional geoid heights on and around Mount Jiri were calculated and were compared to the KNGeoid14 (Korean National Geoid 2014) model. In this study, gravimetric geoid heights were calculated by using RCR (Remove-Compute-Restore) technique and then hybrid geoid heights were calculated by using the LSC (Least Square Collocation) method in the same area. In addition, gravity observation and GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) surveying performed in this study were utilized to determine gravimetric geoid heights and to compute hybrid geoid heights, respectively. The results of the study show that the post-fit error (mean and standard deviation) of hybrid geoid heights was evaluated as $0.057{\pm}0.020m$, while the mean and standard deviation of the differences were -0.078 and 0.085 m, respectively for KNGeoid14. Therefore, hybrid geoid heights in this study show more considerable progress than KNGeoid14.
