To investigate the effect of boning time and storage temperature on meat quality of duck breast, a total of thirty duck breasts were designed in frozen-thawed, chilled-storage, and cold-boning samples. No significant differences were found among pH of all samples. However, cold-boning samples showed significantly (p<0.05) lower cooking loss than the other samples. Frozen-thawed samples showed significantly (p<0.05) higher lightness ($L^*$) and yellowness($b^*$), shorter sarcomere length and higher shear force values compared to the other samples. The result speculated that muscle shortening was affected by lower temperature (frozen) hence tenderness was decreased. Sarcoplasmic protein solubility showed no significant differences among samples, whereas cold-boning samples showed significantly (p<0.05) higher myofibrillar and total protein solubility than the other samples. The result of sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) patterns, chilled-storage and cold-boning samples showed degradation at high molecular protein (nebulin), which was not observed in frozen-thawed samples. Therefore, this data suggested that muscle shortening, tenderness and protein degradation are not affected by boning time rather affected by rapid change of temperature in frozen-thawed samples.

Food safety is the most important global health issue due to foodborne pathogens after consumption of contaminated food. Foodborne bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Salmonella enterica, Staphylococcus aureus, Campylobacter spp., Bacillus cereus, Vibrio spp., Yersinia enterocolitica and Clostridium perfringens are leading causes of the majority of foodborne illnesses and deaths. These foodborne pathogens often come from the livestock feces, thus, we analyzed fecal microbial communities of three different livestock species to investigate the prevalence of foodborne pathogens in livestock feces using metagenomics analysis. Our data showed that alpha diversities of microbial communities were different according to livestock species. The microbial diversity of cattle feces was higher than that of chicken or pig feces. Moreover, microbial communities were significantly different among these three livestock species (cattle, chicken, and pig). At the genus level, Staphylococcus and Clostridium were found in all livestock feces, with chicken feces having higher relative abundances of Staphylococcus and Clostridium than cattle and pig feces. Genera Bacillus, Campylobacter, and Vibrio were detected in cattle feces. Chicken samples contained Bacillus, Listeria, and Salmonella with low relative abundance. Other genera such as Corynebacterium, Streptococcus, Neisseria, Helicobacter, Enterobacter, Klebsiella, and Pseudomonas known to be opportunistic pathogens were also detected in cattle, chicken, and pig feces. Results of this study might be useful for controlling the spread of foodborne pathogens in farm environments known to provide natural sources of these microorganisms.

The objective of this study was to produce superior cows by sexual distinction of embryos collected from the donor with pedigree information. Collected embryos distinguished by biopsy using punching or bisection methods and Loop-mediated isothermal amplification of sex-determined DNA for sexing. Six embryos predicted as female were transplanted to recipients and then 2 pregnant cows were normally delivered of calves at 278 and 285 days after embryo transfer. Birth weights of calves named Barani and Borani were 18kg and 25kg, respectively. Adjusted body weights for 90 days were 61.1kg and 88.8kg, respectively. Average daily gains were 0.48kg and 0.71kg, respectively.

There is no simple method to solve livestock waste problems satisfactorily. For a successful solution, various methods should be well organized orderly depending upon the situation. Even in the livestock waste management, integrated waste management principle should be applied. Minimization of livestock waste generation is the first priority. It is also important to distribute fairly livestock farms throughout the nation. Efficient management of permit system is equally important. Permit should be given only when the farmer have enough grass-land on which the farmer can apply more than two thirds of livestock waste generated or when the farm have an anaerobic digestor in which store livestock waste generated for at least 3 months. In principle, livestock waste should be treated in the farm and it is desirable to operate composting facilities in the farm site too.

Reusing livestock manure have various advantages in securing soil organic resources, and since the costs needed for converting them into liquefied fertilizers are relatively moderate compared to normal treatment, such methods are necessary. In this study, the Recycling Capacity Assessment of Gyeonggi-do was carried out by comparing between the fertilizer demands for specific crops based on the cultivation areas and the amount of fertilizer resources that are generated from livestock manure. From this assessment, the possibility of obtaining resources by converting livestock manure into fertilizers were evaluated. The amount generated of Livestock Manure in Gyeonggi-do were evaluated by applying the emission units to the number of livestock manure. And from the amount generated of Livestock Manure, the amount of fertilizer produced from Livestock Manure were calculated by using the fertilizer a component rate. When considering the amount of fertilizer produced from Livestock Manure based on the type of livestock, N 6,626 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 1,824 ton/year, $K_2O$ 4,480 ton/year were produced from milk cow manure, while N 5,247 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 2,772 ton/year, $K_2O$ 2,879 ton/year, were produced from beef cattle manure. N 14,924 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 7,205 ton/year, $K_2O$ 6,750 ton/year were produced from pigs and N 12,651 ton/year, $P_2O_5$ 4,458 ton/year, $K_2O$ 5,542 ton/year were produced by chickens. So the total amount of fertilizers that can be obtained from livestock manure were 3,668 ton/year Nitrogen, 16,259 ton/year phosphate and 19,651 ton/year kalium. And the total fertilizer demands in Gyeonggi-do were Nitrogen 27,200 ton/year, Phosphate 8,853 ton/year, and kalium 13,211 ton/year respectively. Nitrogen which had higher demands than production quantities were considered as limitation factors in crop growth. So the Recycling Capacity Assessment was carried out mainly based on Nitrogen. Since the Nitrogen quantities that can be provided by recycling livestock manure were 3,532 ton/year lesser than the Nitrogen demands, it is estimated that it would be desirable to convert livestock manure into resources. But in order to properly convert the entire livestock manure into organic resources, the seasonal situation that effects the nitrogen demands of crops along with the regional effects due to the industrial structures should be seriously analyzed. In addition, a system that can effectively produce and manage fertilizer should be established.

More a reddish color of KNBP was related to higher frequency of slower fiber type. Tender meat with a faster ageing rate for KNBP was coincided with a faster proteolytic rate, and likely a higher collagen solubility (data not shown). However, it is not confirmed whether the results were linked to the favorable pH/temperature window during rigor development, or fiber composition for tender meat.

The effects of aerobic and vacuum packaging of fresh duck meat on meat qualities including color, cooking loss, shear force, lipid oxidation and fatty acid composition during cold storage were investigated. The result showed that pH of the samples were decreased as increasing storage time, and leg meat showed significantly (p<0.05) higher than breast meat. Redness showed significantly (p<0.05) higher value in breast meat compared to leg meat as increasing the storage time. However, TBARS value showed significantly (p<0.05) higher in breast meat compared to leg meat as increasing storage time. This result suggested that the lower pH affected lipid oxidation and discoloration of the meat samples. However, fatty acid composition of 1 day storage time showed that aerobic packaging of leg meat had lower (p<0.05) ratio of palmitic acid and higher (p<0.05) ratio of linoliec acid, whereas vacuum packaging of leg meat showed higher (p<0.05) ratio of palmitic acid at 7 days storage time than other treatments. Therefore, this data speculated that saturated fatty acid like palmitic acid and unsaturated fatty acid like linoleic acid were affected by lipid oxidation at different storage time. Finally, aerobic packaging meat accelerated lipid oxidation compared to vacuum packaging meat, hence self life was no longer better than vacuum packaging meat without relation of different type of meat from duck.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of feed resources and collection system of nonconventional agricultural roughages, and reduction of environment pollution by turning non-conventional agricultural roughages to feed resources and diversification of feed supply. And a series of experiment were conducted to determine the effect of moisture control material on quality of sweet potato stalk, peanut stalk, barley straw, the experiments were conducted at Grassland and Forage Crops Division, National Livestock Research Institute, RDA, Suwon in 1999 and 2000. The results obtained from these experiments are summarized as follows; Acid detergent fiber(ADF), neutral detergent fiber(NDF) and total digestible nutrient(TDN) of sweet potato were 38.8, 50.7 and 58.2% in the control silage, but that of rice straw added silage for moisture control were decreased to 41.5, 50.8 and 56.1%. ADF, NDF, CP(crude protein) and TDN of peanut stalk were 42.2, 49.6, 10.5 and 55.6% on the rice straw added silage for moisture control, and there were not affected by barely straw added silage for moisture control. And ADF, NDF and TDN content of barely straw increased 42.8, 65.8 and 55.1% on the water+inoculants treated silage. The results of this study indicate that non-conventional agricultural roughages to feed resources should be make for silage at silo after dry matter percentage(ab0ut 35%) control. Also, rice straw added silage for moisture control will improve the silage fermentation and conservation.
