Many infectious diseases have emerged or re-emerged during the past 50 years in South Korea. There were three outbreaks of foot and mouth disease (FMD) in South Korea between January 2010 and March 2011. Over 3.45 million animals were slaughtered (33.3% of the existing pigs, 8.4% of dairy cows and 3.4% of cattle). To select optimal degradation agents of animal cadavers, degradation rates and fertilizer components of pig cadavers were investigated using hydrogen chloride (HCl), potassium hydroxide (KOH) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) hydrolysis methods. Degradation rates of pig cadavers using HCl, KOH and NaOH were 81.1, 82.8 and 91.6%, respectively. Total nitrogen (T-N) concentration in degradation solution of pig cadavers using KOH hydrolysis method was higher than that in NaOH and HCl hydrolysis methods. Total phosphorus ($P_2O_5$) concentrations in degradation solution of pig cadavers in all hydrolysis methods ranged 0.14 ~ 0.28%. Total potassium ($K_2O$) concentration for KOH hydrolysis method was higher than that for other hydrolysis methods. The concentration of T-N and $K_2O$ in degradation solution of pig cadavers by KOH hydrolysis method were higher than that in NaOH and HCl hydrolysis methods. Thus, to recycle animal cadavers in agriculture, the optimal degradation agent for hydrolysis was KOH.

Essential and non-essential amino acids supplemented to culture medium stimulate mammalian embryo development in vitro. Amino acids such as glycine, taurine and alanine are concentrated in the lumen of oviduct and uterus and it can he thought that these amino acids may have physiological role on fertilization and embryo development. Our aim of this experiment was to investigate the effects of essential and non-essential amino acids, taurine or glycine supplemented to fertilization medium on the cleavage and subsequent in vitro development of bovine oocytes matured and fertilized in vitro. Immature oocytes were obtained from slaughtered Holstein cows and heifers and matured in TCM199 containing 10% fetal calf serum, 2.5 $\mu$g /mL of FSH and LH and 1 $\mu$g / mL of estradiol with granulosa cells in vitro. After maturation, oocytes were coincubated with sperm in fertilization medium supplemented with Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) essential and non-essential amino acids, taurine (3.75 mM) or glycine (10 mM) for 30 hours in vitro. Inseminated oocytes were cultured in synthetic oviduct fluid medium (SOEM) containing MEM essential, non-essential amino acids and 1 mM glutarnine up to 8 days after fertilization.Supplementation of fertilization medium with MEM essential and non-essential amino acids lowered significantly (p<0.05 and p<0.001) the cleavage rate after 30 hours of IVF (53.3%) and at Day 3 (62.7%: Day 0: the day of I VF) compared to control (64.3% and 77.3%, respectively). Subsequent developmental rates to morulae (Mo) and expanding blastocysts (ExBL) also significantly decreased (p<0.001 and p<0.05 for Mo and ExBL) when oocytes were coincubated with sperm in the medium containing MEM amino acids. Taurine added to fertilization medium have not increased the cleavage rate over the control, whereas glycine showed significantly lower (p<0.01) cleavage rate at Day 3 than that of taurine, but there was no significant difference in the developmental rates to Mo and ExBL of bovine embryos irrespective of the supplementation of taurine or glycine to fertilization medium. In conclusion, supplementation of fertilization medium with essential and non-essential amino acids, taurine or glycine has no beneficial effect on in vitro cleavage and development of bovine oocytes matured and fertilization in vitro.

본 연구는 강원도내 농촌지역 1개 군 관내 사육농가에서 사육되어 2004년 12월부터 2008년 6월까지 43개월 동안 강원도와 강원도 인근에 소재한 도축장 3개소에서 도축된 한우 거세우 6,431두의 성적과 한국종축개량협회에서 관리중인 한우 등록우 데이터베이스로부터 이들의 혈통자료 14,957두를 활용하여 도체형질에 대한 유전모수와 육종가를 추정하였다. 연구 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 각 도체형질에 대한 평균과 표준편차는 근내지방도, 등지방두께, 배최장근단면적, 냉도체중 및 육량지수에서 각각 $5.57{\pm}2.01$, $10.87{\pm}4.06mm$, $87.87{\pm}9.07cm^2$, $426.75{\pm}49.27kg$ 및 $65.80{\pm}3.80$으로 나타났다. 2. 단형질 분석을 통한 도체형질의 유전력 추정치는 근내지방도, 등지방두께, 배최장근단면적, 냉도체중 및 육량지수에서 각각 0.36, 0.35, 0.24, 0.29 및 0.40으로 나타났다. 3. 근내지방도는 등지방두께, 배최장근단면적, 냉도체중, 및 육량 지수와 각각 -0.21, 0.30, -0.21, 0.30의 유전상관 계수가 추정 되었으며, 등지방두께는 배최장근단면적, 냉도체중, 및 육량지수와 각각 -0.12, 0.57, -0.97의 유전 상관계수가 추정되었다. 4. 배최장근단면적은 냉도체중 및 육량지수와 각각 0.32, 0.27의 유전상관 계수가 그리고 냉도체중은 육량지수와 -0.62의 유전 상관계수가 추정되었다. 5. 근내지방도가 등지방 두께나 도체중과 음의 유전상관관계를 보이고 있는 점을 고려할 때 근내지방도가 양호한 방향으로 선발을 진행할 경우 등지방두께를 낮추는 간접선발 효과가 있을 것으로 기대된다. 그러나 근내지방도에 대한 선발은 도체중을 증가시키는데 장애를 초래할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
