치아는 성별과 연령의 추정은 물론 혈형 검사와 유전자 검사까지 가능하게 하는 중요한 법의치과학적 자료이다 대부분 치아를 이용한 연구는 핵 DNA가 들어있는 치수에서의 연구로 치수내에는 풍부한 혈액 및 세포가 분포해 있어 핵 DNA가 다량 함유되어 있다. 그러나 순수 상아질에는 핵이 없고 따라서 핵 DNA도 없는 것으로 알려졌지만 치수내에 존재하는 핵 DNA가 상아세관을 통하여 상아질내로 침투할 가능성이 있고 실제 근관치료가 되어 있는 무수치를 감정하게 되는 경우도 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 치아중에서도 근관치료를 받은 무수치에서 개인식별에 활용되는 유전자가 검출되는지 여부를 확인하고자 하였다. 40개의 근관치료된 치아상아질에서 DNA출 추출하고 중합효소반응을 이용하여 증폭절편다형(Amp-FLPs)을 실시하고 X-Y homologous amelogenin gene과 STR 유전좌위 F13A01, LPL를 검색하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 40개의 근관치료된 치아중 19개에서 DNA가 추출되었다. 2. X-Y homologous amelogenin gene 검색으로 40개의 근관치료된 치아에서 21의 남자 치아중 5개, 19개의 여자치아중 7개 등 모두 12개 치아에서 성별검사가 가능하였다. 3. F13A01 유전자는 43개의 근관치료된 치아중 6개의 치아에서 검색되었으며, 4개의 대립유전자 및 5개의 유전자형을 관찰하였다. 4. LPL_유전자는 40개의 근관치료된 치아중 7개의 치아에서 검색되었으며, 3개의 대립유전자 및 3개의 유건자형을 관찰하였다. 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때 근관치료된 치아상아질에서 중합효소반응을 이용한 성별검사 및 STR 유전자위의 검색은 일부 치아에서만 가능하였으나, 근관치료된 치아들도 개인식별을 위한 법의치과학적 자료로서 유용할 것으로 사료된다.

The hypoglycemic effects of five Korean wild vegetables, Aralia continentalis (A. con.), Castanea crenata (C. cre.), Xanthium strumarium (K, str.), Alisma canaliculatum (A. can,) and Eupatorium chinense var. simplicifolium for tripartium (E. tri) which have been utilized for the traditional remedies were investigated in this study. Diabetes mellitus was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by injections of streptozotocin (STZ) into the tail veins at a dose of 45 mg/kg. Five groups of STZ-induced diabetic rats were fed one of each experimental diet containing 10% of the Korean wild vegetable powder and normal and STZ-control rats were fed the control diet for five weeks. The body weight change, feed efficiency ratio (FER) and organ weights were compared. The plasma levels of glucose, protein, cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, triglyceride, free fatty acid, and aminotransferase activity were determined. Mineral (Ca, K, Mg, Na, Cu, Fe, Mn and Zn) contents of the Korean wild vegetables were analyzed. The body weight gain was higher in normal, C. cre., A. can. and E. tri. groups than in the diabetic control group. The FER of C. cre., A. can. and E. tri. groups was significantly higher (p.＜0.05) than that of diabetic control group. Liver weight was heavier in A. con., X. str. and A. can. groups compared with the diabetic control group. The weights of kidney were lighter in all five Korean wild vegetable groups than in the diabetic control group. After five weeks, the plasma glucose level tends to be decreased in A. con., A. can. and E. tri. groups. Plasma cholesterol level was decreased the Korean wild vegetables except for X. str. group. Plasma HDL- cholesterol level was significantly higher in A. con., A. can. and E. tri. groups compared with the diabetic control group. Plasma triglyceride and free fatty acid levels were significantly higher in X. str. group compared with the diabetic control group. Mineral contents were higher in E. tri. (Ca, K, Na and Fe). The results suggest that the intakes of A. con., A. can. and E. tri. have a hypoglycemic effect in diabetic rats showing the possibility as the valuable food resources for the prevention of diabetic mellitus.

This study was conducted to analyze penicillin G (PEG), streptomycin (STR) and neomycin (NEO) residues in milk of healthy lactating cows. Milk samples were collected from all four quarters of 12 dairy cows 2−7 days after intramammary infusions of an ointment containing PEG, STR and NEO once (n = 4; group I) or twice (n = 4, group II) daily. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry was used to determine the antibiotic residues in the samples. The correlation coefficient ($r^2$) of the calibration curves for all antibiotics was > 0.999 and the limits of detection and quantification were $0.002-0.005{\mu}g/mL$ and $0.007-0.02{\mu}g/mL$, respectively. Recovery rates were ranged from 75.5 to 92.3%. In group I, PEG, STR and NEO residues were detected in milk at 2, 3 and 2 days post-treatment, respectively, which were below the maximum residue limit (MRL). In group II, PEG, STR and NEO residues were detected in milk at 2, 3 and 3 days post-treatment, respectively, which were bellow the MRL. These results suggest that a 3-day for milk withdrawal period after the ointment treatment might be sufficient for reduction of the antibiotic residues below the MRL.

A study was carried out to define the relationship between the N-acetyl-$\beta$-D-glucosaminidase(NAGase) levels and isolated pathogenic bacteria in 379 quarter fore milk of mastitis suspected samples collected in this clinics. All samples were tested the NAGase, California mastitis test(CMT), Somatic cell count(SCC) and bacterial culture. Except 111 from 379 samples, 268 bacteria-positive quarter fore milk samples were classified into the latent and mastitis infection group by SCC($500,000cells\;per\;m{\ell}$), and the mean NAGase levels($nmol/min/m{\ell}$) of each isolated pathogen in mastitis infection group were Staphylococcus aureus 3.067, Coagulase-negative staphylococci 4.083, Staphylococcus aureus 3.594, Str. uberis 3.513, Str. dysgalactiae 1.640, E coli 4.441 and gram negative rods 4.560, respectively. Most of the relationship between mean SCC and NAGase in each pathogen group were highly significant using a student t test(p<0.05). When the mastitis pathogens were classified into minor(Coagulase-negative staphylococci, Corynebacterium sp.) and major pathogen group(Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Str. uberis, Str. dysgalactiae, gram negative rods), the NAGase levels were higher at major than minor pathogen group. On the other hand, when the mastitis milk samples were classified by SCC($500,000cells\;per\;m{\ell}$) and by the presence of pathogen(IDF scheme), the NAGase levels were also higher at the mastitis than latent infection. The possibility of combining SCC and NAGase data in order to give the more difinitive diagnosis is discussed.

1. Objectives As a basic trial for identification of Sasang constitutional gene marker, we genotyped and analysed statistical relationships of STR(short tandem repeat) alleles and its distribution in each constitution. 2. Methods After obtaining basic constitutional data with questionnaire (QSCC II), decision of constitution was made by 3 different constitution specialists' diagnosis, and only the samples of specialists' agreement of each constitution by discussion were taken into this research. Using multiplex PCR kit, total 146 constitutional samples were amplified in 16 autosomal STR marker, genotyped, and analysed statistically. Among 16 markers, 15 were analysed in this study excluding the amelogenin marker is used for in gender identification. 3. Results and Conclusions It is difficult to determine the relationship between constitution and STR marker as the sample size is small, however, Penta D and vWA were shown to be related statistically with constitution. It has been know that STRs has no genetic informations, however there are some recent research results showing STRs as a regulatory element, relationship between microsatellite instability and repeat number and size, and post-transcriptional sigualing. STRs which is not known about its function currently, are proposed to have function and/or regulatory activities anyhow with Sasang constitution. It is believed that the results of this study can halp determine and deatify the markers related to Sasang Constitutional Medicien.

In this paper, we implement the eXclusive OR-based Cast (XC) system that is a video streaming system using exclusive OR operations, and measure various performance metrics in wireless local area network (WLAN) environments. In addition, we investigate the performance improvement of the XC system considering various practical video streaming environments, while conventional studies analyzed the performance of XC through computer simulations in limited environments. To this end, we propose new control messages such as STR_REQ_MSG (SRM) that clients transmit to a video streaming server and STR_CON_MSG (SCM) that is used for the video streaming server to control the clients, and develop a new protocol by using the new control messages. According to the various measurement results using the implemented XC system, XC video streaming system can reduce the consumption of network bandwidth by 8.6% on average and up to 25% compared to the conventional video streaming system. In addition, the outage probability can be also reduced up to 76%.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindley) extract on the acid production and growth of lactic culture in reconstituted skim milk. The supplementation level of loquat extract to reconstituted skim milk was 10％, 15％ and 20％. Reconstitued skim milk containing loquat extract was fermented by single of mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei. General compositions of loquat extract, changes of viable cell count, pH and titratable acidity during fermentation were determined. Chemical compositions of loquat extract were 91.5％ moisture, 0.2％ crude ash, 8.6$^{\circ}$ Brix soluble sugar, 0.34％ total acid, and 4.11 in pH. Supplementation of loquat extract stimulated acid roduction and growth of lactic acid bacteria. Among supplementation levels, a group that was fermented by a single culture of Str. thermophilus with 10％ loquat extract was shown the highest viable cell count (2.10${\times}$10$\^$9/ CFU/mL) at 12 hours after inoculation. When loquat extract was added to reconstituted skim milk at the level of 10％, all mixed cultures of lactic acid bacteria showed higher acid production and the number of viable cell count than 3 kinds of single cultures. Especially, the growth of mixed culture of Str. thermophilus and Lac. acidophilus was promoted by the addition of 10％ loquat extract. Therefore, it was suggested to manufacture the yoghurt with the addition of 10％ loquat extract and the inoculation of mixed culture of Str. thermophilus and Lac. acidophilus for on the stimulation of growth of the lactic culture.

DNA typing is often used to determine identity from human remains. Recently, the molecular biological analysis of ancient deposits has become possible since methods for the recovery of DNA conserved in bones or teeth from archaeological remains have been developed. In the field of archaeology, one of the most promising approaches is to identify the individuals present in a mass burial site. We performed nuclear DNA typing and mitochondrial DNA sequencing analysis based on PCR from a Korea ancient human remain excavated from Sa-chon Nuk-island and civilian access controlline(CACL). A femur bone were collected and successfully subjected to DNA extraction, quantification, PCR amplification, and subsequently typed for several shot tandem repeat(STR)loci. 4 types of STR systems used in this study were CTT multiplex(CSF1PO, TPOX, TH01), FFv multiplex(F13A01, FESFPS, vWA), Silver STRⅢ multiplex(D16S539, D7S820, D13S317), and amelogenin for sex determination. This studies are primarily concerned with the extraction, amplification, and DNA typing of ancient human bone DNA samples. Also, it is suggestive of importance about closely relationship between both fields of archaeology and molecular biology.

The optimum conditions for the development of a lactic acid beverage from the concentrated whey were studied using reverse osmosis system. For lactose hydrolysis rate and acid productivity, the strain mixture of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus was more efficient than that of Streptococcus cremoris and Streptococcus lactis. The titratable acidity was increased at higher LCR (lactose concentration ratio) of whey. However, the higher LCR of whey was, the slower the pH decreasing rate was. The amount of sediment was maximum at LCR of 1.0 : 1 whey, hit there was no sediment at LCR 3.0 : 1 whey after 12 hours. Propylene glycol alginate was the best stabilizer and prevented from sedimentation at the concentation of less than 0.1%. Aspartame as a sweetener of yoghurt flavor had the best palatability.

Purpose: This research was implemented for men in their thirties who have lower back pain to observe general activity disorder patterns during pinch lift and rubbing manual therapy (PMT) and stretching application. Methods: Participants were divided into three groups: The PMT Group used applied pinch lift and rubbing manual therapy; the STR Group used applied stretching; and the CON Group was the control group. Participants for each group received treatments that were conducted three times a week for a total five weeks. Measures of pain utilized Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) [INCOMPLETE SENTENCE]. Results: There were significant differences between the PMT Group and the CON Group as well as the STR Group and the CON Group for pain, muscle strength and flexibility. There was a significant difference in pain between the PMT Group and the STR Group. Conclusion: As a result, it is inferred that PMT and stretching positively influenced recovery with regards to pain, muscle strength and flexibility relief; however PMT is more effective for pain relief than stretching.
