  • Predater, tarpon (Megalops atlanticus) has a specific preferring preys in natural environments. To investigate this, young tarpon were captured and their stomach contents were weighed and sorted based on taxonomic groups. Average standard length and body weight for tarpon captured were 11.49 cm and 34.67 g, respectively. The average weight of the stomach contents in the tarpon was 0.83 g. The status of digestion extent of the consumed preys was 2.37 which indicated that preys were relatively well digested. The main preys in tarpon stomach were other fishes (mosquito fish and sheepshead minnow) and shrimp. Frequency occurrence of fishes in tarpon stomach was highest (P<0.05). Also, frequency occurrence of shrimp was higher than that of fly (P<0.05). Mean individual number of fish found in tarpon stomach was 2.66 per tarpon and it was higher than that of shrimp or fly (P<0.05). There was linear regression between the total weight of the consumed preys and the standard length of tarpon; Y (Total weight of preys) = 0.3151 $\times$ (Standard length of tarpon) - 2.7123, $R^2$=0.6140. Also, there was the strong linear regression between the total weight of the consumed preys and weight of the tarpon; Y (Total weight of preys) = 0.0299 $\times$ (Body weight of tarpon) - 0.0774, $R^2$=0.7882. These results indicated that the main preys for young tarpon in their natural environments were small fish composed of mosquito fish and sheepshead minnow and shrimp. And there was the stronger correlation between the total weight of preys and the body weight of tarpon than that between the total weight of preys and the standard length of tarpon.

  • Because Lonicerae Flos has effects of antiinflammatory and antioxidant, we studied an effect of Lonicerae Flos on reflux esophagitis (RE) through those effects. Rats were treated with three different dosages of LF (500, 250 and 125 mg/kg) orally for 14 days before pylorus and forestomach ligation. Six hrs after pylorus and forestomach ligation, we dissected a stomach and examined a stomach volume, gastric acid output, pepsin release in the stomach, total hexose, sialic acid in stomach tissue and histamine contents of sera. The results were compared with an ${\alpha}$-tocopherol (once orally, 1hr before operation, 30 mg/kg) treated group in which the effects on RE were already confirmed. Lonicerae Flos extract (LE) reduced gastric volumes compared to RE control. This indicate that LE protect a stomach mucosa by depressing of gastric acid release and corresponse with a reducing histamine content of serum. And LE decreasd a volume of pepsin in stomach compraed to RE control, LE increased contents of total hexose and sialic acid based on esophageal and gastric mucus. This indicated that an increased mucus by LE protected inflammation of esophagus mucosa and gastric mucosa induced by gastric acid. So, LE suppressed a gasric acid by decreasing a pepsin release in stomach, suppressed an injury of esophagus inducted by gastric acid with increasing esophageal mucus and a minimum dose of LE to RE was 250 mg/kg. The results suggest that antioxidant effects of LF could attenuate the severity of reflux esophagitis and prevent the esophageal mucosal damage, and validate its therapeutic use in esophageal reflux disease.

  • A total of 499 stomachs consisted of 393 slaughter and 106 breeding pigs from industrial farm was examined for ulcerative lesions grossly and microscopically. The relationship between the ulcerative lesions and stomach contents was also examined. 1. The majority of stomachs has one or more lesions of ulcerative process, including parakeratosis(64.1%), erosions(10.2%), acute ulcers(2.8%), chronic ulcers(1.4%), and scars(0.8%). 2. The incidence and the degree of the esophagogastric lesions in the breeding pigs were similar to those of the slaughter pigs. But ulcerative lesions of the fundic lesions in the breeding pigs were found to be more remarkable than those of the slaughter pigs. 3. The stomach contents of the pigs having gastric ulcers were mostly fluid in nature, which were dry in the normal stomach. 4. Histologically, muscular hypertrophy, connective tissue hyperplasia and vascularity were shown in the ulcerative lesions of the esophagogastric portion. Thrombosis, necrosis and granulation tissue formation were found frequently.

  • 본 연구는 동해 남부 연안에서 출현하는 도화망둑 (Amblychaeturichthys hexanema)과 수염문절 (A. sciistius)의 위 내용물을 분석하여 두 어종의 위 내용물 조성을 조사하고, 종 간 그리고 성장에 따른 먹이자원의 분할이 있는지 연구하였다. 도화망둑과 수염문절은 저서성 갑각류를 주로 섭식하는 저서 섭식 육식성어류였다. 저서성 무척추동물과 부유성 먹이 또한 각각 도화망둑과 수염문절의 먹이로써 중요도가 다소 높았다. 중량비 자료를 이용한 non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS)와 다변량 분석 (multivariate analyses)에서 두 어종의 위 내용물 조성은 그 차이가 유의하였다. 그러나 두 어종 모두 성장에 따른 위 내용물 조성 변화에서 차이가 유의하지 않았다. 두 어종이 섭식한 먹이생물의 차이는 섭식 행동의 차이와 관련있다. 결론적으로, 본 연구해역에서 두 어종의 위 내용물 분석 결과는 도화망둑과 수염문절 사이에 생태지위 분리의 증거와 먹이 자원에 대한 종 간 경쟁 감소의 가능성을 보여주었다.

  • 꼼치의 식성을 조사하기 위해 가덕도와 다대포 사이의 낙동강 하구 주변해역에서 채집된 꼼치의 위내용물을 분석하였다. 꼼치는 특정 먹이생물에 대해 선택성이 대단히 큰 육식동물로 나타났다. 꼼치의 가장 중요한 먹이생물은 새우류였는데, 전체 위 내용물의 건조중량중 74.3%를 차지하였다. 그중 자주새우(Cragon affinis)가 모든 크기군에서 가장 선호된 종이었다. 그 다음으로 중요한 먹이생물은 어류였으며, 위 내용물의 19.8%를 차지하였다. 그밖에 게류, 단각류, 곤쟁이류, 갯가재류, 등각류 등이 위 내용물중 출현하였으나, 그 양은 많지 않았다. 꼼치가 성장함에 따라 먹이 종류는 크게 변하지 않았다. 그러나 위 내용물중 새우류와 어류가 차지하는 비율은 성장함에 따라 점차 변하였다. 즉, 4~10cm SL 크기군에서는 새우류가 위 내용물의 거의 90%를 차지하였고 어류의 비율은 5% 이하에 불과하였는데, 성장함에 따라 새우류의 비율은 점차 낮아지고 어류의 비율이 점차 증가하였다. 31~45cm SL 크기군에서는 어류가 차지하는 비율이 30% 이상에 달하였으며, 새우류가 차지하는 비율은 60% 이하로 감소하였다.

  • Objectives : The relationship between the Lungs, Stomach and Kidneys were examined in relation to their pulses continuously beating without rest as discussed in the 『Lingshu·Dongshu』, with other chapters in the 『Huangdineijing』. Methods : Chapters in the 『Huangdineijing』 and annotations were referenced in relation to the contents in question of the 『Lingshu·Dongshu』. Results & Conclusions : In 『Lingshu·Dongshu』, the Stomach of the Zuyangming is central. In the flow of Qi that is produced and circulated from the Stomach, we can see that Ancestral qi that is created in the Stomach ascends and accumulates in the chest area to disperse Qi throughout the entire body according to breathing and pulsation, while Nutrient qi exits from the middle energizer and ascends to the Lungs, circulates the entire body and Qi that is partially similar to Defense qi moves upwards to the head and circulates. In the lower part of the body, Qi flows to the Zushaoyin that is associated with Jing qi to assist with actions of the Extra meridians, while it connects to the Ancestral sinew through Zujueyin allowing for smooth movement of the muscles and joints. The special emphasis on the pulsation points of the three meridians, Shoutaiyin, Zuyangming and Zushaoyin, is based on the Qi thoroughfare[氣街] theory, where production and circulation of all Qi in the upper, middle, and lower energizers of the body manifest as pulse movement of the three meridians, which are the fundamental rhythms and movements of life.

  • The southern rough shrimp Trachysalambria curvirostris (Stimpson) was monthly sampled from the coastal area of Yeosu, Korea from June 2000 to May 2001 and its stomach contents were investigated. Mysids and amphipods were the most dominant prey, comprising >40% of the diet in both % occurrence and % abundance. In particular, mysids were most important food without regard to seasons, size classes, or sexes. The abundance and occurrence composition of food items showed a seasonal fluctuation: mysids and amphipods were the predominant prey items in spring (33.8%), summer (41.1%), autumn (43.9%), and winter (49.2%). For small-sized shrimps (>25 mm CL), mysids and amphipods consist of more than 45% of its food in both % abundance and % occurrence. For large-sized shrimps (>25 mm CL), these were clearly dominant. The quantities and items of food did not differ in both genders, which mainly fed on mysids and amphipods. The trophic diversity and equality of diet varied with seasons and size classes. The diet diversity for smaller shrimps was highest in spring, while that for the larger shrimp lowest in winter. Also, the mandibular structure of Trachysalambria curvirostris indicates that the species is carnivorous.
