  • To establish an effective diagnostic measure for detection of the antibodies against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, the methods for tube agglutination test (TAT), plate agglutination test (PAT), micro-agglutination test(MAT) and agar-gel immunodiffusion test(ID) were improved and standarized, and the comparative studies were carried out. The results obtained through the experiments were summarized as follows. 1. The rabbit hyperimmune sera to reference serotypes 1 to 6 were cross-tested with TAT, PAT, MAT and ID. In the homologous systems, the range of antibody titers in TAT was 80 to 640, showing the cross-reaction in serotypes 3, 4, 5 and 6. The range of antibody titers in PAT was 4 to 64, showing the cross-reaction in serotypes 3, 4, 5 and 6. In ID, the range of antigen titers was 8 to 32, and cross-reaction was observed in serotype 5. 2. The optimal concentration of antigen in PAT and MAT were 100mg /ml and 1.25mg /ml respectively. The most sensitive reaction in MAT was observed in 52$^{\circ}C$ for 18hrs. 3. In ID, the most promising antigen and the buffer for agar-gel were EDTA-treated antigen and 0.05M tris buffer (pH 7.2), respectively. 4. By the tests for 200 swine sera, it was found that the frequency of positive reaction were 203 in TAT, 240 in PAT and 163 in ID. 5. When compared the titers of TAT with those of MAT for 200 swine sera, MAT showed the higher titer than TAT being increased by relative correlation. Int was found that the titer for positive readings were 20 in TAT and 40 in MAT. 6. when compared the results of ID with those of TAT for 200 swine sera, all sera with TAT titer under 10 were negative in ID. Of the sera with TAT titer 20 and 40, 55.1% nd 91.8% were positive in ID, respectively. All sera with TAT titer above 80 were positive in ID. In comparison of ID and MAT, all sera with MAT titer under 20 were negative in ID. Of the sera with MAT titer 40 and 80, 24.7% and 93.9% were positive in ID, respectively. All sera with MAT titer over 160 showed positive in ID. 7. In conclusion, the established MAT showed high sensitivity but low specificity, wherease ID revealed low sensitivity but high specificity.

  • In order to integrate two consolidation theories of Terzaghi's consolidation theory and Mesri's secondary compression theory and to identify a model suitable for analyzing stress-strain behavior over time, numerical analysis on consolidation tests were conducted using a modified cam-clay model and a soft soil creep model and the following conclusions were obtained. The results of numerical analysis applying the theory that a linear proportional relationship is established between the void ratio at logarithmic scale and the permeability coefficient at logarithmic scale is better agreement with the result of oedometer test than the results of applying constant hydraulic conductivity. The modified cam-clay model is a model that does not include secondary compression, but the slope of the normal consolidation line corresponding to the compression index of the standard consolidation test includes secondary compression, so the actual settlement curve over time is lower than the predicted value through numerical analysis. It always gets smaller. Other previous studies that applied Terzaghi's consolidation theory to consolidation test analysis showed the same results and were cross-confirmed. The soft soil creep model, which includes secondary compression in the theory, showed good agreement in all sections including secondary compression in the consolidation test results. It was judged appropriate to use a soft soil creep model when performing numerical analysis of soft clay ground.

  • Objectives : To identify the risk factors of dementia among the elderly in a large city. Methods : A cross-sectional study was conducted in July 2001, with potential participants selected by stratified two stage cluster sampling of the elderly population of Keumgog dong, Busan. A total of 452 elderly people aged 65 years and over, underwent a two phase diagnostic procedure. Mini-mental State Examination-Korean (MMSE-K) and Samsung Dementia Questionnaire were used for the 1st stage, and the Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (CDR), the Bartel ADL, and IADL Index, the Korean Geriatric Depression Scale (KGDS), the Modified Hatchinski Ischemic Scale (MHIS), and other laboratory tests were used for the 2nd stage. Results : Of the 446 participants finally chosen, 45 were confirmed with dementia, and 363 as normal, with the rests not confirmed with dementia or as normal, were excluded from the analysis. According to the logistic regression analysis, the risk of dementia was significantly higher In: people aged 80 and above (OR=4.36, 95% CI=1.97-9.62), illiterate (OR=3.58, 95% CI=1.71-7.46), who had a history of strokes (OR=6.35, 95% CI=2.71-14.87), or who had 3 history of hyperlipidemia (OR=4.74, 95% CI=1.65-13.61), compared to their counterparts. Conclusions : These results suggest that efforts to prevent strokes and hyperlipidemia can significantly decrease the risk of dementia.

  • Purpose: This study examined the health status among elderly in community. Method: This is a survey using cross-sectional design. The subjects were 531 elders who were 65 and over in Pusan, Korea. Data were collected by 17 trained interviewers from April 10 to August 26, 2000. Functional status for physical health status, depression, loneliness, self-esteem for psychological health status, and social support for social health status were measured. Result: About forty three percent of the subjects were found as the elderly who need support in physical status. About fifty six percent of the subjects were depressed. The mean score on the Loneliness scale was 40.4, which means relatively higher. For self-esteem, its score was lower than that of elderly who were examined in other studies. The subjects were living in the state of lower social support. The risk factors for vulnerable health status were being female, becoming older, lower income and education, and living alone. Conclusion: This finding indicates that the elderly subjects in Korean community were in poor health status in physical, psychological and social aspects.

  • The applications of composite materials have increased over the past few decades in a variety of structures that require high ratio of stiffness and strength to weight ratios. Recently the thick open section composite beams are used extensively as load carrying members and stiffeners of structural elements. However, most of studies on thick composite beams are limited only to closed section beams. In this study, an open cross-section thick-walled composite beam model which includes coupled stiffness, transverse shear, and warping effects is suggested and the deflections associated with the thick-walled composite beams and thin-walled composite beams are obtained and compared with the finite element analysis results.

  • This study was performed to evaluate repeated-dose toxicities of STB-HO-BM in Sprague-Dawley rats. STB-HO-BM was administered orally to rats at dose levels of 0, 100, 300 and 1,000 mg/kg/day for 13 weeks. In recent study, there were no dose related changes in mortality, clinical signs, body weight changes, food and water consumption, opthalmoscopy, organ weights, urine analysis, hematological findings, and biochemical examination of all animals treated with STB-HO-BM. Gross and histopathological findings revealed no evidence of specific toxicity related to STB-HO-BM. These results suggest that the oral no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) of STB-HO-BM may be over 1,000 mg/kg in rats.

  • Comparative studies were made on the analgesic effect of salicylamide, used individually and combined with parasympatholytics (propantheline and atropine) and antihistaminics (tripelennamine, diphenhydramine) as regards the analgesic effect (in thermal contact method) were examined by its oral administration with each combined drug to mouse (three assumption cross-over test), and the following effects were found. 1. The increasing order of the parasympatholytics to the analgesic effect of salicylamide is as follows: propantheline>atropine. 2. The increasing order of the antihistaminics to the analgesic effect of salicylamide is as follows: chlorpheniramine>diphenhdramine>tri pelennamine. In the ratio '1 : 1' salicylamide to parasympatholytics and antihistaminics, the analgesic effect of salicylamide was more increase than the other ratio in this study.
