  • This experiment was carried out to investigate the distribution, function of dry matter and competition in the grassland composed with mainly perennial ryegrass. Co-functions between grasses and weeds were evaluated by calculating methods; expected yield (P), agressivity, relative yield total (RYT), compensation index (CI) and morphological index (MI). Each values obtained were influenced by seeding method, grassland management and seasonal changes of co-functional index were identical. Expected yields of spring were lower than those of fall and improved by additional seeding to grassland in early spring time. In the relative yield total (RYT), all were under 1.0 which ranged from 0.17 to 0.41. Compensation index (CI) ranged from -0.3 to -0.6 and all values showed 'under compensation(+, --)' This means that the conditions of 'under compensation' could be improved through weed control by management of grassland in perennial ryegrass grassland. The results indicated that productivity of grassland mainly composed with perennial ryegrass is negatively affected by weeds like shepherd's purse, crabgrass and barnyard grass. As major weeds, shepherd's purse in spring, crabgrass in summer and barnyard grass in summer and fall were negatively functioned to productivity in the grassland composed with mainly perennial ryegrass.

  • Indirect fluorescent antibody test(IFAT) and enzyme-linked imuunosorbent assay (IgG-ELISA) as serological diagnostic tools were conducted to evaluate the usefulness for diagnosis of canine babesiosis infected with Babesia gibsoni in domestic various dog breeds, american pit bullterrier, military shepherd, and mongrel dogs. The results obtained from this study were abstracted as follows. The nonionic detergent Triton X-100 and absorbent bio-bead $SM_2$ were useful reagents for the preparation of pure merozoite antigen of B gibsoni to be used in ELISA. The optimum reaction in ELISA was shown when the protein concentration of ELISA antigen was measured as 625ng/ml and the conjugate concentration was diluted into 1/6000 fold. The average OD value of ELISA in sera determined with negative responses in IFAT was measured as $0.255{\pm}0.051$(490nm) and the cut - off value of OD was determined as 0.399(490nm). The serum antibodies in both of IFAT and ELISA were detected on one week after artificially infected with B gibsoni and these high antibody titers, 512X in IFAT and 1024X in ELISA, were long lasted until 15 weeks after infection. The reproducibility of reaction and stability of the antigen absorbed microtitration polystyrene plate preserved in $4^{\circ}C$ refrigerator and $-20^{\circ}C$ freezer, respectively could be lasted until 135 days after storage. The positive rates in IFAT by dog breeds were shown 8.1%(60/744 heads) in mongrel dogs, 81.3%(78/96 heads) in american pit bullterrier and 15.6%(15/96 heads) in military shepherd, while the positive rate in ELISA shown 17.6%(131/744 heads) in mongrel dogs, 83.3%(80/96 heads) in american pit bullterrier and 36.5%(35/96 heads) in military shepherd, respiectively. In the total of 936 heads surveyed with IFAT and ELISA the positive rates in IFAT and ELISA were 16.4%(153/936 heads) and 26.3%(246/936 heads), respectivily. Agreement of reactions between IFAT and ELISA was shown 82.4% in 936 dog sera. The specificity and sensitivity of ELISA reaction were 83.5% and 76.5%, respectively. From the conclusion obtained in this study it was evaluated that IFAT and ELISA were useful as highly specific, sensitive and stable serelogical tools for the diagnosis of canine babesiosis in Korea.

Effect of Hot Water Extracts of Blue Mussel and Several Plants on Alcohol Metabolizing Enzymatic, Antioxidant, and Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitory Activities (홍합과 여러 식물의 열수 추출물의 알코올분해효소에 미치는 영향과 항산화 및 ACE 저해 활성)

  • For the development of a hangover soup containing blue mussel, 11 kinds of hot water extracts were prepared - A (mistletoe); B (shepherd's purse); C (arrowroot); D (bean sprout); E (oriental raisin); F (blue mussel); G (blue mussel and mistletoe); H (blue mussel and shepherd's purse); I (blue mussel and arrowroot); J (blue mussel and bean sprout); and K (blue mussel and oriental raisin). Extract C showed the highest effect for increasing the activities of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH); however, the addition of blue mussel did not provide a synergy effect on extract C. Other than the arrowroot-containing extracts (C and I), extract H showed relatively higher ADH ($237.4{\pm}1.7%$) and ALDH ($136.5{\pm}2.1%$) activities. Moreover, extract H showed the highest DPPH radical scavenging activity ($93.9{\pm}0.1%$) and angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity ($42.7{\pm}1.6%$). The combination of blue mussel with shepherd's purse had a synergic effect on its ADH and ACE inhibitory activities.

  • Visualization has played an essential role in the development of our understanding of the complex unsteady flows associated with the initiation, propagation, and extinction of detonation waves. These methods and application to various aspects of detonation are illustrated by results obtained in my laboratory, particularly using combinations of the PLIF technique with other methods. Examples shown will include detonation initiation by projectiles, diffraction over ramps and steps, diffraction out of tubes, detonation implosion, and the cellular structure of detonation waves.

  • 원심력을 이용한 대표적인 대기오염 방지 장치인 싸이클론은 1800년대 후반이래 공기나 배출가스로부터의 분진제거 및 입자분리에 폭 넓게 사용되어 왔다. 일반적으로 싸이클론은 간단한 구조로 되어 있으며, 조작이 용이하고 운전비용이 저렴할 뿐만 아니라 가혹조건에서의 사용이 가능하다는 장점이 있다 (Shepherd and Lapple, 1939). 입자의 관성력에 의해 분진을 분리하는 싸이클론으로서는 상대적으로 낮은 관성효과를 지니는 미세입자(주로 10$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하)들에 대한 제어효율이 낮을 수 밖에 없다(Dirge and Leith, 1985).

  • Tricuspid valve dysplasia was diagnosed in 2 month-old german shepherd dog. Radiographic and echocardiographic examination was performed and they revealed severe dilatation of the right atrium, dilatation of the right ventricle, and septal leaflet tethered to the right side of the septum. On Doppler echocardiography, tricuspid valve incompetence was detected, flow velocity ranging from 3-4 m/sec. Color Doppler examination showed large turbulent jet in the right atrium.

  • Lameness of front limbs or hind limbs was occurred in German Shepherd dogs firm one brood bitch between 5 and 6 months of age. Physic81 examinations revealed pain associated with deep palpation of the affected area(u1nar, humerus, tibia, etc). But, no significant result was found for the clinical test including complete blood test and so oa Radiographic examination showed an increased radiopacity in the region of the nutrient foremen. Panosteitis was diagnosed on the basis of breed age, clinical signs and radiographic signs.

  • A 6 yers old German Shepherd dog was diagnosed to a ruptured gallbladder subsquently causing a diffuse peritonitis with bile-contaminated ascites. Surgical exploration could not determine its causes of pathogenesis. A marked leukocytosis and increased alkaline phosphotase were the pronounced clinical pathologic features. Delayed surgical exploration was critical therapeutic failure of this particular case. An immediate surgical intervention could be a life saving therapy of choise. The author report an uncommon clinical case presentation of the ruptured gallbladder in a dog and an importance of immediate surgical correction.

  • Intestinal adenocacinomas are uncommon in dogs, and they occur most frequently in the colon and rectum of animals averaging 8-9 years old. Also, they have been reported rarely in cattle, goats, horses and swine. This tumors occur slightly higher in males than in females. Boxers, collies, poodles, and German shepherds are prediposed.
