Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of low doses of organic trace minerals (iron, copper, manganese, and zinc) on productive performance, egg quality, yolk and tissue mineral retention, and fecal mineral excretion of laying hens during the late laying period. Methods: A total of 405 healthy hens (HY-Line White, 50-week-old) were randomly divided into 3 treatments, with 9 replicates per treatment and 15 birds per replicate. The dietary treatments included feeding a basal diet + inorganic trace minerals at commercial levels (CON), a basal diet + inorganic trace minerals at 1/3 commercial levels (ITM), and a basal diet + proteinated trace minerals at 1/3 commercial levels (TRT). The trial lasted for 56 days. Results: Compared to CON, ITM decreased (p<0.05) egg production, daily egg mass, albumen height, eggshell strength, yolk Fe concentration, serum alkaline phosphatase activity and total protein, and increased (p<0.05) egg loss and feed to egg ratio. Whereas with productive performance, egg quality, yolk mineral retention, and serum indices there were no differences (p>0.05) between CON and TRT. The concentrations of Fe and Mn in the tissue and tibia were changed notably in ITM relative to CON and TRT. Both ITM and TRT reduced (p<0.05) fecal mineral excretion compared to CON. Conclusion: These results indicate that dietary supplementation of low-dose organic trace minerals reduced fecal mineral excretion without negatively impacting hen performance and egg quality.

The bone is composed of the bone matrix of collagen and hydroxyapatite, the mixture of calcium and phosphours. The bone tissue is considered to the special connective tissue that possesses extracellular matrix made by collagen fiber deposited with mineral complex. In order to maintain bone mass measured by the sum of bone matrix and hydroxyapatite, bone resorption by osteoclast during lifetime and bone remodeling to form bone by osteoblast in its resorption region repeat continuously. The osteoblast has a mesodermic fetal origin like fibroblast for the formation of form tissues. Two cells express identical genes and synthesize the identical collagen type I as the major component of the formation of bone matrix and skin. Therefore, it is considered that the decrease of skinfold thickness and the decrease of bone mass related to the age, the change of two tissues composed of collagen type I is caused by the same genetic mechanism. The decrease of bone mass is caused by the change of the amount and structure of bone matrix by several factors and the amount of minerals deposited on bone matrix. Especially, in case of female, the deficiency of estrogen by menopause makes these changes rapidly increased. The decrease of bone mass and skinfold thickness is due to the decrease of the amount of collagen and its structural change the common component of bone tissue and skin tissue. Therefore, the relationship of the amount of cross-linked peptide N-telopeptide, collagen metabolite which excretes as urine. Based upon the proved results about the significant relationship of bone mass, the amount of bone collagen, the amount of skin collagen and skinfold thickness, the bone mass may be expected through a facile determination of skinfold thickness.

The Jecheon granite mass has turtle-shape exposure of about $190km^2$ at vicinity of Jecheon-eup, and is elongated in the direction of NEE-SWW. It discordantly intrudes the Bakdalryong metamorphic rocks and the great limestone series(Samtaesan and Hungwolri formation) which belong to the pre-Cambrian and Ordovician, respectively. The mass is composed of five facies of different grain size; texture and charecteristic minerals. The five facies are (1) coarse grained biotite granodiorite, (2) fine grained hornblende biotite granodiorite, (3) coarse grained pink feldspar granodiorite (4) leucogranite, and (5) porphyritic biotite granite. The mutual relationship between each facies is intrusion in (1)-(2) and (2)-(3), but unknown in (3)-(4) and (4)-(5). 22 modal analyses and and 10 chemical analyses on more than a hundred of representative samples taken from the mass are listed as tables. Triangular plot of modal and normative Q-Kf-Pl of this mass show a continuous differentiation products from certain common magma by change of chemical composition and anorthite contents in plagioclase. The metamorphic facies of contact aureole in surrounding rocks adjacent to the granite body are corresponded to hornblende hornfels facies with mineral assemblages of wollastonite-diopside-calcite in calcareous rocks, and of quartz-biotite-muscovite-cordierite in argillaceous rocks. Variation of silica versus oxides of major elements shows that the mass is similar to the trend of Daly's average basalt-andesite-dacite-rhyolite which shows the trend of the fractional crystallization of magma, and is equivalent to the calc-alkali rock series by Peacock. AMF diagram shows that Jecheon granite mass is equivalent to normal diffentiation products such as skaergaard intrusion. The above evidences suggest that the Jecohon granite mass is normal differentiation products formed by fractional crystallization under relatively slow cooling condition.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of soymilk and exercise on bone mineral density (BMD) in underweight college women of 19-22 years of age, who had lower bone mass. The BMD of the lumbar spine and femoral neck was measured for 52 underweight college women. Among them, 33 subjects, whose t-score value was below -1, were selected. Questionnaire survey, anthropometrical measurements, dietary recall, analysis of BMD, fasting serum osteocalcin and urinary deoxypyridinoline (DPD) were conducted before and after the 10 week study. The 33 subjects were divided into 2 groups： soymilk group (n=19), and soymilk ＋ exercise group (n=14). The soymilk group was given 400$m\ell$ soymilk containing 60mg of isoflavones on a daily basis and the soymilk ＋ exercise group exercised three times a week with a daily intake of 400$m\ell$ soymilk for 10 weeks. The average ages of the soymilk group and the soymilk ＋ exercise group were 21.1 years and 20.4 years, respectively and, there were no significant differences between the soymilk group and the soymilk ＋ exercise group in the areas of height, weight or Body Mass Index (BMI). At the baseline, the mean daily energy intake of the soymilk group and the soymilk ＋ exercise group was 1,597.9kcal (79.43％ of RDA) and 1,704.2kcal (85.2％ of RDA), respectively. The mean calcium intake of the soymilk group (408.3mg) was not significantly different from that of the soymilk ＋ exercise group (389.4mg). Despite the 400$m\ell$ soymilk supplementation, there were no significant changes of nutrient intake in either group after treatment. However, there were significant increases in BMD's of lumbar spine and femoral neck in both groups. There were some increases in the serum osteocalcin level and decreases in the urinary deoxypyridinoline level as well. BMD change of the soymilk group was not significantly different from that of the soymilk ＋ exercise group. In conclusion, supplementary intake of soymilk (containing 60mg of isoflavones) resulted in a significant increase in the BMD's of the lumbar spine and femoral neck in underweight college women with low bone mass. However, exercise did not result in any significant changes in the BMD's, implying the necessity for more intensive and specific long-term physical training for any substantial changes. Further investigation is necessary to determine the exercise that most strongly affects BMD.

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by exaggerated loss of bone mass, with as much as 50 to 85% of the variation in bone mineral density (BMD) commonly accepted as being genetically determined. Although intensive studies have attempted to elucidate the genetic effects of polymorphisms on BMD and/or osteoporosis in several genes, the genes involved are still largely unknown. The possible associations of genetic variants in five-candidate genes (IL10, CCR3, MCP1, MCP2 and GC) with spinal BMD were investigated in Korean postmenopausal women (n = 370). Fourteen SNPs in five candidate genes were genotyped, and the haplotypes of each gene constructed. The associations of adjusted spinal BMD by age, year since menopause (YSM) and body mass index (BMI), with genetic polymorphisms, were analyzed using multiple regression models. Genetic association analysis of Korean postmenopausal women revealed that IL10 -592A > C and/or IL10 ht2 were associated with decreased bone mass, whereas no significant associations were observed with all polymorphisms in other genes. The levels of spinal BMD in individuals bearing the IL10 -592CC genotype were lower ($0.78{\pm}0.16$) than those in others ($0.85{\pm}0.17$) (P = 0.02), and the BMD of IL10 ht2 bearing individuals were also lower ($0.82{\pm}0.15$) than those in others ($0.85{\pm}0.17$) (P = 0.04). Our results suggest that variants of IL10 might play a role in the decreased BMD, although additional study might need to be followed-up in a more powerful cohort.

물의 $^{18}O/^{16}O$와 $^2H/H$ 조성을 레이저를 이용하여 분석하는 기술은 기존의 IRMS를 이용한 분석방식에 비해 간편한 시료 전처리, 쉬운 장비 유지보수와 현장에서도 응용이 가능하다는 장점을 가지고 있다. 현재 사용되는 레이저 방식을 이용한 물의 안정동위원소 분석은 분석원리에 따라 OA-ICOS(Off-Axis Integrated Cavity Output Spectroscopy)를 이용한 방식과 WS-CRDS(Wavelength-Scanned Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy)를 이용한 방식으로 구분된다. WS-CRDS 방식은 기화된 물 시료를 질소 가스를 이용해 광학 공동(optical cavity)로 이동시킨 후 특정 파장에서의 동위원소체가 가지고 있는 흡수도와 레이저를 투과시켜 광학 공동을 투과하여 나오는 레이저 신호의 감쇠시간의 비측정을 통해 수 ppb에서 수십 ppt까지의 감도로 물의 안정동위원소 조성이 측정 가능하다. 이 연구에서는 WS-CRDS 방식의 분석원리와실제 물시료를 활용하여 기기의 안정성과 동위원소비 질량분석기(Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry; IRMS) 방법과의 교차분석을 포함한 기기 성능평가 결과를 소개하고 수리학 분야에서 다양한 주제에 대한 적용 가능성을 제시하였다.

본 연구에서는 20대 초반의 남, 여를 대상으로 초음파 방식으로 측정된 골밀도와 신체조성 및 배근력의 관계에 대해 알아보았다. D대학에 재학 중인 61명의 학생에 대해 IRB 승인과 참여자 동의 후 설문조사, 초음파방식 골밀도 및 신체조성, 배근력을 측정하였다. 골밀도는 주로 사용하는 측 종골을 측정하여 T-값을 두 그룹($T-score{\geq}-1.0$; T-score<-1.0)으로 나누었다. 생체전기 저항법을 이용하여 신체조성을 측정하였고, 배근력은 2회 측정하여 평균값을 구하였다. 모든 통계분석은 SPSS ver. 22.0 을 사용하여 실시하였다. 신체활동 또는 체질량지수가 증가할수록 골밀도 및 신체조성의 근육량도 증가하였다. T-값이 높은 그룹이 낮은 그룹 보다 신체조성의 근육량 및 골격근량, 신체발달이 높았지만 통계학적인 유의성은 없었다(p>0.05). 배근력에서도 T-값이 높은 그룹이 낮은 그룹 보다 높았다(101.1 vs. 92.1, p=0.308). 남, 여그룹에서 골밀도 T-값과 신체조성의 골격근과 근육량은 보통 수준의 유의한 양의 상관성을 보였고(p<0.05), 배근력은 신체조성의 골격근과 근육량, 신체발달에서 골밀도 보다 높은 유의한 양의 상관성을 보였다(p<0.001). 여자그룹이 남자그룹 보다 골밀도 T-값과 신체조성의 골격근과 신체발달에서 높은 상관성을 보였다. 남자 그룹에서 배근력과 골밀도의 T-값과는 유의한 상관성을 보이지 않았지만(r=0.176, p=0.319), 여자 그룹에서는 보통 수준의 유의한 상관성을 보였다(r=0.591, p=0.001). 이상과 같이 초음파 방식으로 측정된 골밀도와 신체조성, 배근력은 상호 유의한 관련성을 보였다.

Objectives: Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic disease of the bone, and is one of the most important major public health problems world wide. It is more occurred in female than male, but as the osteoporosis of men is increasing, therefore bone fractures of men are increasing. So we investigated the factors which are related to Bone Mineral Density(BMD) of male for prevention of osteoporosis. Methods: We measured the Bone Mineral Density(BMD) of lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) and femoral neck in 5198 male, using dual energy X-ray absorptionmetry(DEXA; DPX-alpha). And then we analysed the 8 factors - age group, bone mass index(BMI), amount of smoking, drinking, exercise, and fast blood sugar, gastric disease, thyroid disease - which are related to BMD of male. Results: 1. In age group according to ${\ll}$Hwangjaenaekyong Somun, 黃帝內徑 素問${\gg}$, T-score was the highest at 17-24(三八歲) years group and decreased rapidly after 57-64(八八歲) years group in both lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) and femoral neck. Therefore we concluded that T-score of male in lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) and femoral neck change according to age group in ${\ll}$Hwangjaenaekyong Somun, 黃帝內徑 素問${\gg}$. 2. In BMI(body mass index), T-score of lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) and femoral neck were the highest in obese group than non-obese group. In comparison of age group according to BMI, T-score of lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) was significant difference in 17-72 years group and T-score of femoral neck was in 25-72 years group. 3. In exercise, T-score of lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) and femoral neck was increasing as exercising more. In comparison of age group according to exercise, Both T -score of lumbar spine and femoral neck were significant difference in 25-72 years old. 4. T-score of lumbar spine($L_2$-$L_4$) was the highest in men who have taken exercise daily, and T-score of femoral neck was the highest in men who have taken exercise 1-3 times for a week. Conclusions : The age group in ${\ll}$Hwangjaenaekyong Somun, 黃帝內徑 素問${\gg}$ is related to BMD of men. And risk factors - BMI, exercise - are related to BMD of men. Therefore we expect that this study will help for prevention of osteoporosis of men.

암석의 열생산율은 구성 광물 내 방사성 동위원소의 방사성 붕괴와 감마선 방출에 의한 열에너지에 기인하며, 그 크기는 주요 방사성 동위원소인 U, Th, K의 함량에 지배적이다. 그러므로 암반의 열생산율은 암석의 밀도와 주요 동위원소의 함량에 기반해 평가할 수 있다. 심부 암반의 열생산율 평가에 필요한 방사성 동위원소의 농도는 시추공에서 회수된 암추 또는 암편에 대한 질량분석을 통해 파악할 수 있는데, 대심도 시추공의 경우 요구되는 분석량과 그에 따른 시간 및 비용의 문제로 적용이 제한적일 수 밖에 없다. 시추공을 대상으로 하는 물리검층 중 암반의 감마선 스펙트럼으로부터 U, Th, K의 함량을 유추할 수 있는 기술이 있지만, 열생산율 평가를 위해 별개의 밀도검층 자료를 필요로 하며, 상용화된 장비의 적용 심도 또한 아직은 제한적이다. 이에 대한 대안으로 시추공 암반이 방출하는 감마선의 강도를 측정하는 자연 감마선 검층 결과로부터 열생산율을 유추하는 방법이 제안된 바 있으며, 국내외에서 비교적 쉽게 암반의 열생산율을 평가할 수 있는 방법으로 사용되고 있다. 본 기술보고에서는 국내 상용화된 대심도 시추공 물리검층 장비 및 기술을 활용해 감마선 검층 기반의 열생산율 평가 기법을 개발하고, 국내 약 2 km 깊이의 대심도 시추공에 대한 적용 및 검증 사례를 소개하고자 한다.
