A screening of Nepalese wild herbs for their antioxidant and antiobesity activity was carried out. The herbs including Allium hyposistum, Crateva unilocularis, Dryoathyrium boryanum and Cuscuta reflexa are widely used traditionally for various medicinal purposes in Nepal. The ethyl acetate fraction of D. boryanum showed polyphenol content of 266 ${\mu}g$GAE/mg with potent antioxidative activity assessed by DPPH free radical scavenging activity and hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity. The EtOAC fraction of D. boryanum also inhibited the lipid formation with 35% at 100${\mu}g/ml$ in 3T3-L1 cell model. Along with this, butanol fraction of C. reflexa also showed potent antioxidative activity and inhibition of 80% of lipid formation at the test concentration of 75 ${\mu}g/ml$ in 3T3-L1 cell line. This showed that these plant extracts have potential of antioxidant and antiobesity activity.

본 시험은 산란계 사료 내 사과박 발효물의 첨가가 산란계 생산성, 계란 품질 및 장내 미생물 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 57주령 Hy-Line을 200수를 공시하여 5처리, 4반복, 반복당 10수씩 배치하여 10주간 사양 시험을 실시하였다. 시험구는 무첨가구(Control, C)와 산란계 사료 내 생균제 0.1% 첨가구(T1), 사과박 발효물 1.0% 첨가구(T2), 계피0.1%첨가구(T3) 및 계피를 첨가한 사과박 발효물 1.0% 첨가구(T4)로 처리구를 나누어 시험을 실시하였다. 시험 전기간 동안 총 산란율에서는 각 처리구간 유의적인 차이는 인정되지 않았으나 대조구와 비교하였을 때 생균제 및 발효 사과 부산물 첨가구에서 6.1% 개선되는 결과를 나타내었다. 계피 0.1% 첨가구에서는 무첨가구 대비 4.5% 개선되는 결과를 나타내었다. 시험 기간 동안 계란 품질 조사 결과 전체 처리구에서 유의적인 차이는 없었으나, 신선도의 경우 무첨가구와 비교 시 발효 사과 부산물 처리구에서1.2%의 개선 효과를 나타내어 안전 양계 산물 생산에 대한 가능성을 나타내었다. 시험 전 기간 동안 혈액 생화학 및 혈구에 대해 처리구간 유의적인 차이는 나타나지 않았다. 결과적으로 산란계 사료 내 발효 사과 부산물의 첨가 급여는 산란계에 있어 생산성에 대해 개선 효과를 가지며, 향후 곡물 수급의 불안정 및 양계 분야에 대체 자원의 필요성을 고려할 때 농산부산물을 활용한다는 점에서 충분한 가능성을 시사한 결과라 할 수 있다.

Geographic information system (GIS) based renewable energy resource map including potential analysis can play a crucial role not only to develop the national plan for renewable energy deployment but also to make strategic investment decision in the private sector. Korea Institute of Energy Research (KIER) has been developing domestic maps about several resources such as solar, wind, hydro, biomass, and geothermal, as well as conducting research on methodologies for potential analysis. Furthermore, the institute is trying to transfer related technologies and know-how to foreign countries, recently. In this context, the main purpose of this study is to introduce the business model of renewable energy resource map. From the value chain analysis, we focus on the government-side market in foreign countries, such as the development of the national level renewable energy resource map and the support of the national renewable energy plan. For about 180 countries, we segment the customers according to the consideration of economic capacity, renewable energy resource capacity, existence of renewable resource map, current portion of renewable energy facility capacity, and renewable energy policies, and we conclude that the target customers are non-Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (non-OECD) countries or some OECD countries, their per capita GDP are under the average among OECD countries, that do not have renewable resource map yet. We segment the target customers into four groups, and suggest different strategies for market positioning and financing strategy based on Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) analysis. This study can help to develop the business strategy about the development of renewable energy resource map in foreign countries.

The blood-epididymis barrier (BEB) forms a unique microenvironment that is crucial for the maturation, protection, transport, and storage of spermatozoa in the epididymis. To characterize the function of tight junctions (TJs), which are constitutive components of the BEB, we determined the expression and localization of TJ proteins such as zonula occludens (ZO)-1, 2, and 3, occludin, and claudin3 (Cldn3) during postnatal development in the goat epididymis. To assess the expression patterns of TJ proteins in immature (3 months of age) and mature (14 months of age) goat epididymides, two different experimental methods were used including immunofluorescence labeling and western blotting. We show that, ZO-1, 2, and 3, and occludin, were strictly expressed and localized to the TJs of the goat epididymis, whereas Cldn3 was present in basolateral membranes as well as TJs. All TJ proteins examined were more highly expressed in the immature epididymis compared to levels in mature tissue. In conclusion, our study indicates that at least five TJ proteins, namely ZO-1, ZO-2, ZO-3, occludin, and Cldn3, are present in TJs, and the expression strength and pattern of TJ proteins tend to be age dependent in the goat epididymis. Together, these data suggest that the distinct expression patterns of TJ proteins are essential for regulating components of the luminal contents in the epididymal epithelium and for forming adequate luminal conditions that are necessary for the maturation, protection, transport, and storage of spermatozoa in the goat epididymis.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of different hexoses (glucose, mannose, galactose and fructose) on in vitro development of parthenogenetic embryos in the pigs. When the parthnogenetic embryos were cultured in medium with concentrations of 5mM glucose or 1mM galactose, the rates of embyos developed to morula and blastocyst stages were significantly higher than those in another culture conditions (P<0.05). However, high concentration of galactose inhibited development to morula and blastocyst stages. Addition of hexoses at early stage of porcine parthenogenetic embryos were effective for in vitro development. Especially, the embryos cultured in medium with glucose at early stage were effective for development to 2-cell $(72\%)$ and blastocyst $(19\%)$ stages compared with embryo cultured without glucose. From the present results, it is suggested that development of porcine parthenogenetic embryos can improve in medium with 5mM glucose. The concentration of 1mM galactose was also effective for development of porcine parthenogenetic embryos. It also show that parthenogenetic embryos cultured with glucose at early stage can improve in vitro development.

Human resource for the new and renewable energy technology is an important factor in the respect of the sustainable growth and energy security. In this paper, we focused on measuring the economic effect of human resource development on new and renewable energy development programs. The human capital accumulation model developed by Mincer (1974) was modified in terms of the rate of the researchers' investment in human capital. As a result of a empirical case study, the value of human capital was estimated by 102 million Korean won per year worth 18% of the project labor cost. In case of the assumption of 100% participation of researchers, the level of human capital accumulation increased to 914 million Korean won per year. These results imply that the new and renewable energy development programs has been successful, on the concept of learning by doing, in terms of providing the researchers with opportunities to accumulate human capital.

The expansion of demand associated with leisure, which has resulted from the elevated standard of living, has made the domestic tourist demand diversified. Recently, people, especially urban population, show the higher interest and need for environmentally friendly rural tourism. This study aims to grasp the utilization of recreation roles of tourist farms and then to evaluate the economic value for recreation roles of tourist farm using Traveling Cost Method. Data were collected from a survey in 2003. The results show that its value is 62,037 won per head annually and so the tourist farms play their role of connecting the urban population with rural amenity.

This study aims to compare human resource development by industrial and occupational characteristics of science and engineering graduates. To achieve research objectives, this study analyzed whether differences exist in human resource development, such as participation in vocational training, wage levels, and cuture of talened person preference, by industrial and occupational characteristics. The results showed that workers in engineering fields received more benefits and support compared to those in non-science and engineering field occupations at the quantitative statistics of vocational training and wage levels. On the contrary, according to the qualitative statistics, workers of non-science and engineering field have a culture of talented person preference compared to those in science and engineering occupation.
