It is important to obtain semen with good quality for efficient fertilization and pregnancy. To obtain these semen, various methods have been developed but most of these methods are time consuming and require costly equipment. Therefore, the objective of this research is to investigate the usability of column filtration system as quick and simple method to get sperm with better quality. Ejaculates were obtained from 5 dogs and analyzed with basic quality parameters before each filtration. Sperm concentration was adjusted to $5{\times}10^7/ml$ after dilution. The experimental groups were divided into non-filtered group(control) and filtered groups(glass wool, Sephadex 5% and Sephadex 20%). Ejaculates were filtered through each filter system and assessed by recovery rate of sperm, motility, normal morphology, CFDA/PI stain and plasma membrane integrity(hypo-osmotic swelling test, HOST). The lowest recovery rate of spermatozoa was recorded in glass wool filtration group, followed by 20% Sephadex filtration group(p<0.05). There was no significant difference between control(non-filtered) and 5% Sephadex filtration poop. Also, there was no significant difference of sperm motility assessed under light microscope among experimental groups. Morphological normality of canine spermatozoa was the highest in the glass wool filtration group and the lowest in the 5% Sephadex filtration group with no significant differences versus 20% Sephadex filtration and control group, respectively(p<0.05). Viability of canine sperm assessed by CFCA/PI staining was the highest in the glass wool filtration poop with no significant difference versus the control group, and the lowest in the 20% Sephadex filtration group with no significant difference versus 5% Sephadex filtration group, respectively(p<0.05). HOS values of canine sperm was the highest in the 20% Sephadex filtration group with no significant difference versus 5% Sephadex filtration group, and the lowest in the control poop with no significant difference versus glass wool filtration group, respectively(p<0.05). Therefore, these results indicated that filtration treatment for extended canine sperm would be useful method to get sperm with better quality by trapping the damaged sperm, consequently filter would be physical barrier against injured or immotile sperm.

The present investigation was carried out to assess the effect of Sephadex (G-15) filtration on the post thaw bull semen quality and conception rate. Post thaw unfiltered (control) and Sephadex filtered semen from four healthy bulls (three cross bred and one pure bred Holstein Friesian) were subjected to microscopic examination viz. sperm concentration, individual motility, live sperm count and sperm morphology. Sixty-two healthy, normal cycling crossbred cows were inseminated with post thaw unfiltered (n=32) and filtered semen (n=30). Sephadex filtration of post thaw semen significantly (p<0.05) decreased total sperm concentration and sperm with abnormal head, mid piece and tail. The overall average total sperm concentration, head and tail defects in filtered semen decreased significantly (53.4, 1.2 and 6.4 million) than in the unfiltered semen (80.4, 2.4 and 15.7 million, respectively). However, after filtration significant (p<0.05) increase in overall average motile and live sperm concentration were observed (38.8 and 38.0) as compared to unfiltered semen (29.2 and 32.0 million, respectively). The overall conception rate recorded was 21.9% with post thaw unfiltered semen and 56.7% with filtered semen. It was concluded that Sephadex filtration of post thaw semen improved its quality and conception rate.

L. sporogenes의 배양여액으로부터 균체외 $\beta$-galactosidase를 ammonium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-200 gel filtration, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography와 hydroxyapatite adsorption chromatography등의 4단계 정제공정을 거쳐 순수하게 정제하였다. 정제효소는 347배 정제되어 비활성이 1,585 units/mg 이었으며 수율은 39.5%였다. Sephadex G-200 gel filtration에 의한 native enzyme의 분자량은 140,000이고 SDS-PAGE 에 의해서는 분자량이 72,000 한가지로 나타났으므로 L. sporogenes의 $\beta$-galactosidase는 동일한 subunit 2개로 구성된 dimer 효소이다.

세포내와 세포벽에 invertase가 존재하며 catabolite inhibition을 받지않고 세포외로 구성적으로 invertase를 생산하는 Rh. glutinis K-24를 공시균주로 선택하여 세포내와 세포벽 invertase를 정제한 후 정제효소의 효소화학적 성질을 밝혔다. 세포내 invertase는 DEAE-Sephadex A-50에 의한 Batchment, DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography, gel filtration on Sephadex G-200, isoelectric focusing 등의 조작에 의해 Disc 전기영동상 단일한 효소단백질까지 정제되었다. 세포벽 invertase는 B. pumilis에 의해 생산되는 세포벽 용해효소를 작용시켜 invertase를 용출 시킨 다음 DEAE-Sephadex A-50 column chromatography, gel filtration on Sephadex G-100의 조작에 의해 부분 정제하였다. 세포내와 세포벽 Invertase의 분자량은 각각 약 310,000과 67,000이었고 세포내 경우는 subunit 분자량이 약 70,000이었다. 세포내와 세포벽 효소의 반응 최적 pH와 온도는 모두 4.0와 6$0^{\circ}C$였으며 온도 안정성도 7$0^{\circ}C$까지 거의 비슷하게 나타났다. 그러나 Km값은 세포내 효소의 경우는 4.3x$10^{-3}$M이었고 세포벽 효소의 경우는 2.1x$10^{-2}$M이었다. 그외 Inhibitor에 대한 효소의 저해양식도 양효소에 비슷한 결과를 나타내었다.

Sixty semen ejaculates collected at weekly interval from four Murrah Buffalo bulls over a period of seven months (Nov.1999 to May 2000) were used in the present study. Three buffer medium (sodium citrate, TES and Tris) were used for soaking of sephadex. Three grades of sephadex (G-15,G-100, and G-200) were used for preparation of columns. Columns of three different height (one, two and three cm) were used for separation of semen. Twenty semen ejaculates were used in each project. In the first experiment each semen ejaculates was divided into four parts. One part was kept as control and other three parts were passed thought one cm column of sephadex G-15 prepared in three different buffers. There was significant (p<0.05) increase in percent progressive sperm motility and percent live spermatozoa and decrease in percent abnormal spermatozoa and percent spermatozoa with damaged acrosome as well as sperm numbers after filtration through all the three columns. Sperm quality obtained in the filtrate of column prepared in Tris buffer was better in comparison to other two buffers. So the Tris buffer was used in the second trial. Twenty semen ejaculates were used in this experiment. Each semen ejaculate was divided into four parts. One part was kept as control (non-filtered) and other three parts were passed through columns of different grade of sephadex (G-15, G-100 and G-200). Progressive sperm motility and live sperm percentage improved significantly while decline in percent abnormal spermatozoa and percent spermatozoa with damaged acrosome and sperm concentration was observed after filtration through all the columns as compared to control (non-filtered) semen. Since post filtration quality of semen was better in the sephadex G-100 column, therefore it was selected for the next experiment. In third experiment, Tris buffer and sephadex G-100 were used for preparing columns of different height (one, two and three cm) and twenty semen ejaculates were filtered. The quality characteristics of semen (percent progressive sperm motility, percent live spermatozoa and sperm concentration) after filtration through one cm column were significantly (p<0.05) higher than after filtration through columns of two and three cm height. However non -significant (p>0.05) difference due to height of columns was observed for percent abnormal and percent damaged acrosome but 1 cm column comparatively gave better result than of 2 and 3 cm column height.

A radioprotective ginseng protein fraction was obtained from Korean white ginseng powder by the following isolation and purification procedures: Tris-HCI buffer extraction, 70% ammonium sulfate fractionation, CM-rellulosr column chromatography, heat inactivation and Sephadex G-75 column chromatography. This fraction was further purified by Sepharose 4B and Sephadex G-150 column chromatographies. Three fractions obtained were subjected to Native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE using gradient gels and the silver staining method. Molecular weights of the native proteins and their subunits were estimated.

식물 뿌리혹 선충인 Meloidogyne incognita에 살충성이 있는 Bacillus thuringiensis 108 균주를 분리 선별하였다. 이 균주는 Gram양성이며, 포자를 형성하고, 운동성이 활발하며, lecithinase 및 catalase활성을 나타내었다. 이 균주가 생산하는 결정형 내독소(d-endotoxin)는 bipyramid형이었고, 편모항원성에 따른 균주의 동정 결과 serotype 3으로 표준 균주인 B. thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki의 편모항원성과 일치하였다. B. thuringiensis 108균주의 항선충성 물질은 Sephadex G-25 gel filtration, 활성탄 흡착 chromatography, Silica gel 흡착 chromatography 및 Sephadex G-10 gel filtration을 이용하여 정제를 하였다. 최종 정제단계인 Sephadex G-10 gel filtration 후에 항선충 물질의 $LC_{90}$는 $1.2\;{\mu}g/ml$이었다. B. thuringiensis 108 균주가 생산하는 항선충성 물질은 $100^{\circ}C$ 열처리에서 안정하였으나 autoclave($110^{\circ}C$ 30 min)를 했을 때는 그 독성이 완전히 소실되었다.
