러시아 바이칼호에서 해빙기에 부유세균과 aggregates에 부착한 세균의 군집구조를 FISH (fluorescent in situ hybridization)방법으로 0 m부터 250 m수심에서 비교 분석하였다. 조사대상은 Eubacteria에 속하는 세균과 class Proteobacteria에 속하는 세균 중 $\alpha$-, $\beta$-, $\gamma$ -group과 Cytophaga-Flavobacterium group,그리고 Planctomycetales였다. 부유세균의 수는 $0.2{\times}10^6\cells{\cdot}ml^-1 to 3.2{\times}10^6 \cells{\cdot}ml^-1$범위였으며, 수심이 깊어질수록 감소하였다. Aggregate에 부착한 세균은 부유세균과 반대로 수심이 깊어질수록 증가하였고, 개체수의 범위는 0.4~$3.3{\times}10^4$ $cells{\cdot}ml^-1$ 이였다. 총세균수에 대한 Eubacteria 수의 비율은 부유세균의 경우 52.3~74.1%, aggregates에 부착한 세균은 39.6~66.7%로 부유세균보다 부착세균에서 그 비율이 낮았으며, 세균의 군집구조 분석 결과에서도 부유세균과 aggregates애 부착한 세균의 군집구조가 다른 양상으로 나타났다. 특히 두 세균의 군집구조는 식물플랑크톤이 밀집해 있는 25 m 수심에서 급격히 변화하여 식물플랑크톤이 부유세균과 부착세균의 군집의 변화에 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 확인되었다, Aggregates에 부착한 세균 군집은 수심에 따라 매우 특이한 변화 양상을 나타내었다. $\beta$-proteobacteria group은 수심이 깊어지면서 그 비율이 높아져, 100m에서는 $\beta$-group이 총세균수는 51.8%를 차지하였으나, 250m에서는 $\gamma$-group이 43.8%를 차지하여, 급격하게 우점 group이 변화하였다. 그러나, 부유세균에서는 전혀 다른 군집 구조를 이루고 있었다. 이러한 결과에서 aggregates에 부착한 세균은 부유세균과는 다른 다양성을 이루고, 다른 천이과정을 거치는 것으로 확인되었다.

Perlite와 tobermolite 담체를 각각 상 하단(바이오필터 A) 또는 하 상단(바이오필터 B)으로 충전한 상향식 바이오필터에서 상하단의 메탄산화 특성을 비교하였다. 각 바이오필터에서 상단과 하단 담체를 채취하여 메탄산화속도를 측정하고, 정량적 real time PCR 방법을 이용하여 메탄산화세균수를 정량분석 하였다. 혼합담체의 층적배열 차이에 따른 각 담체의 순수 메탄산화속도를 조사한 결과, biofilter A perlite 상단이 $845.16{\pm}64.78{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$로 tobermolite 하단 $381.85{\pm}42.00{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$에 비하여 상대적으로 높았다(p < 0.005). 또한, biofilter B tobermolite의 상단($601.25{\pm}37.78{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$)이 perlite 하단($411.07{\pm}53.02{\mu}mol{\cdot}VS^{-1}{\cdot}h^{-1}$)에 비하여 메탄산화속도가 높았다(p < 0.005). 바이오필터 A는 상단(1.27E+13 pmoA gene copy number/mg-VSS)보다는 하단(3.33E+13 pmoA gene copy number/mg-VSS) (p < 0.05)에 더 많은 메탄 산화 세균이 존재하였다. 그러나, 바이오필터 B는 상단과 하단간의 메탄 산화 세균수의 차이는 유의하지 않은 것으로 나타났다(p > 0.05). Perlite와 tobermolite로 충진된 각 담체의 순수 메탄산화속도는 상단부에 위치한 담체들이 높았음에도 불구하고 바이오필터내에서 메탄농도 감소폭이 컸던 하단부에서 메탄산화세균이 많이 존재하였다.

Human influence on soil formation has dramatically increased as the development of human civilization and industry. Increase of anthropogenic soils induced research of those soils; classification, chemical and physical characteristics and plant growth of anthropogenic soils. However there have been no reports on soil pore properties from the anthropogenic soils so far. Therefore the objectives of this study were to test computer tomography (CT) to characterize physical properties of an anthropogenic paddy field soil and to find differences between natural and anthropogenic paddy field soils. Soil samples of a natural paddy field were taken from Ansung, Gyeonggi-do (Ansung site), and samples of an anthropogenic paddy field were from Gumi in Gyeongsangnam-do (Gasan) where paddy fields were remodeled in 2011-2012. Samples were taken at three different depths and analyzed for routine physical properties and CT scans. CT scan provided 3 dimensional images to calculate pore size, length and tortuosity of soil pores. Fractal analysis was applied to quantify pore structure within soil images. The results of measured physical properties (bulk density, porosity) did not show differences across depths and sites, but hardness and water content had differences. These differences repeated within the results of pore morphology. Top soil samples from both sites had greater pore numbers and sizes than others. Fractal analyses showed that top soils had more heterogeneous pore structures than others. The bottom layer of the Gasan site showed more degradation of pore properties than ploughpan and bottom layers from the Ansung site. These results concluded that anthropogenic soils may have more degraded pore properties as depth increases. The remodeled paddy fields may need more fundamental remediation to improve physical conditions. This study suggests that pore analyses using CT can provide important information of physical conditions from anthropogenic soils.

One of the goals of stem cell technology is to control the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), thereby generating large numbers of specific cell types for many applications including cell replacement therapy. Although individual hESC lines resemble each other in expressing pluripotency markers and telomerase activity, it is not clear whether they are equivalent in their developmental potential in vitro. We compared the developmental competence of three hESC lines (HSF6, Miz-hES4, and Miz-hES6). All three generated the three embryonic germ layers, extraembryonic tissues, and primordial germ cells during embryoid body (EB) formation. However, HSF6 and Miz-hES6 readily formed neuroectoderm, whereas Miz-hES4 differentiated preferentially into mesoderm and endoderm. Upon terminal differentiation, HSF6 and Miz-hES6 produced mainly neuronal cells whereas Miz-hES4 mainly formed mesendodermal derivatives, including endothelial cells, leukocyte progenitors, hepatocytes, and pancreatic cells. Our observations suggest that independently-derived hESCs may differ in their developmental potential.

본 연구에서는 닭, 오리, 말, 염소, 사슴 및 양으로부터 발생되는 분 뇨 및 폐수의 오염물 부하를 조사 및 분석함으로써 축사로부터 발생 및 배출되는 오염물 부하 원단위를 산정하였다. 그 조사 결과는 다음과 같다. 닭의 오염물질 배출량 및 농도분석 원단위를 통하여 산출된 배출부하 원단위는 사육두수 및 사료의 종류, 분의 처리방법의 상이함에 의해 산란계에서 높게 나타난 것으로 판단된다. 배출부하 원단위 중 사슴의 경우 기존의 문헌보다 높게 측정된 것은 사슴의 축종별 체중과 오염물질 발생량의 차이에 의한 것으로 판단된다. 양의 경우 뇨의 발생 부하량 원단위가 분에 비해 2배 정도 높게 측정되었는데 문헌자료에서는 분이 뇨보다 높게 측정되어 현 연구에서의 측정결과와 많은 차이를 나타내었다.

High-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is widely used as sweetener, and its overconsumption is become a major health problem. In the present study, we used adult female rats and applied a 28 days HFCS feeding model to monitor the estrous cycle and changes in tissue weights and histology. Adult female rats were divided into three groups. Animals were fed with ad libitum normal chow and (1) 24 hours tap water (Control group), (2) 12 hours HFCS access during dark period and 12 hours tap water (12H group), and (3) 24 hours HFCS only access (24H group). Total exposure period was 28 days. There is no significant change in body weight between control and HFCS-fed animals. Both absolute and relative weights of ovary in 24H animals were significantly heavier than those in control or 12H animals. The absolute and relative weights of the kidney and liver in 24H groups were significantly heavier than those in control or 12H animals. The estrous cycles of the 24H animals were significantly longer. Histological analyses revealed that 24H ovaries were relatively bigger and possessed more corpus lutea than control ovaries. Uterine sections of 12H and 24H animals showed a well-developed stratum vasculare between inner and outer myometrial layers. The number of endometrial glands were decreased in 12H uteri, and recovered in 24H uteri compared to control. Numbers of convoluted tubule in distal region increased in 12H and 24H kidney samples. Liver specimens of 12H and 24H showed the increased number of fat containing vacuoles. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that HFCS treatment for 28 days could induce (1) changes in length of estrous cycle with extended estrous and diestrous stages, (2) altered ovarian and uterine histology, and (3) liver and renal lipid accumulation. These findings reveal the adverse effects of HFCS drinking on the reproductive function and lipid metabolism of female rats.

Fowl red mite, Dermanyssus gallinae, is the most important ectoparasite affecting egg layers worldwide. More than 35 compounds have been used for fowl red mite control. Although some of them are efficient, several compounds are unsuitable in terms of food safety and environmental problems. Some compounds are efficient in theory but inadequate in practice. It is also expensive in material and labor to control effectively. Effective doses are very close to toxic doses and repeated treatment is required. Repeated, long term treatment of compounds on fowl red mite populations, may cause heritable resistance against the mites. In this study, antigenicity of fowl red mite and house dust mite, Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus, were identified by SDS-PAGE, silver staining, Western blotting and ELISA to investigate immune effects against fowl red mite using somatic antigens of fowl red mite and house dust mite. By SDS-PAGE, silver staining and Western blotting, several common antigens (110, 60, 56, 49, 46 kDa) of both fowl red mite and house dust mite were recognized. To identify immune effect of somatic antigens of fowl red mite and house dust mite, sixty white leghorn broilers(1 week old) were used. Among sixty white leghorn broilers, twenty were immunized with fowl red mite somatic antigens(Group I), twenty immunized with house dust mite antigens(Group II), and twenty were control group without antigen(Group III), respectively. After immunization, it was identified that antibody titers were increased both in group and II. Then all groups were challenged with fowl red mites. After 2 months, measurements of body weights, packed cell volume(PCV), ELISA OD values and numbers of mites were significant(p<0.05). These results suggest that fowl red mite and house dust mite, which are easy to collect and maintain, can be good vaccine candidates against fowl red mite in chicken.

In this study, temperature, turbidity, suspended paniculate matter (SPM) distribution and mineral characteristics were investigated to explain spatial distribution of the turbid-water environment of Yongdam reservoir in July, 2005. Six stations were selected along a longitudinal axis of the reservoir and sampling was conducted in four depths of each station. Water temperature was showed the typical stratified structure by the effects of irradiance and inflow. Content of inorganic matter in suspended particles increased with the concentration of suspended particulate matter (SPM) due to the reduction of ash-free dry matter (AFDM). Turbidity ranged from 0.6 to 95.1 NTU and the maximum turbidity value of each station sharply increased toward downstream from upstream. The high turbidity layers were located at the depth between 12~16 m. Particle size ranged from 0.435 to $482.9{\mu}m$. day and silt-sized particles corresponded 91.9~98.9% and 1.1~8.0% in total numbers of SPM, respectively. Turbidity showed high correlations with clay (r=0.763, p<0.05) and silt content (r=0.870, p<0.05).Inorganic matter content (r=0.960, p<0.01) was more correlated with turbidity than organic matter (r=0.823, p<0.05). Mineral characterization using x-ray diffraction and electron probe microanalyzer demonstrated that the major minerals contained in the SPM were kaolinite, illite, vermiculite and smectite. As results of this study, surface water discharge as well as small size of the SPM were suggested as long-term interfering factors in settling down the turbid water in the reservoir.

We report for the first time highly efficient trans-reflective color filters capable of demonstrating coloration in both transmission and reflection modes by taking advantage of a multilayer stack consisting of MgF₂ and TiO₂ used respectively as the low and high index materials. In order to enable such trans-reflective performance, securing an optimal stop band assuming an appropriate bandwidth within the visible regime is pivotal, which was realized by tailoring the thicknesses and the numbers of TiO₂-MgF₂ bi-layers. Three devices were designed through rigorous simulations and developed via e-beam evaporation to demonstrate vivid blue, green, and red colors in the reflection mode, and yellow, magenta, and cyan colors in the transmission mode, featuring an enhanced efficiency exceeding 90% under normal incidence. The color performance of the filters was examined by referring to the chromaticity coordinates of the transmission and reflection spectra, alongside photographed color images. The dependence of the performance on the angle of incidence was explored with respect to incident polarization, indicating that a transmission surpassing 60% could be stably maintained up to an angle of 75°. Polarization independent transfer characteristics were especially achieved for the normal incidence. The proposed devices may be readily extended to other spectral regimes by adjusting the thicknesses of the films.
