Two experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of yeast culture on the performance of broiler chicks and noxious gas emission in broiler houses. Two hundred forty and three hundred and twenty, one day old Cobb male broiler chicks in Expt 1 and Expt 2, respectively were alloted to four treatment levels of yeast culture (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4%). To each treatment, 60 birds were assigned in Expt 1 and 5 replicates of 16 birds each were assigned in Expt 2. Basal diets contained 21.5% and 19.0% CP, and 3,100kcal/kg ME for the starting and finishing periods, respectively. Ammonia and $CO_2$ gas emission were detected twice a day for seven days during the five week period of Expt 1. Weight gain, feed intake and feed efficiency were measured for five weeks in Expt 2. Intestinal microbes, blood cholesterol and ND antibody titer were examined at the end of Expt 2. In Expt 1, the concentration of $NH_3$ in the house of birds fed yeast culture tended to be lower than the control. It was significantly lower in the 0.4% yeast culture treatment than the control (P<0.05). $CO_2$ concentration was significantly lower in all yeast culture treatments regardless of its dietary supplemental level than the control (P<0.05). different from others. Feed efficiency (feed/gain), however, was significantly improved in all yeast culture treatments relative to that of the control for starting period (P<0.05) and that of 0.2% yeast culture treatment was significantly lower than those of the control and 0.4% for the overall period. Total number of E. coli in the ileum of birds fed yeast culture at 0.1 and 0.2% was significantly lower than those of the control and 0.4% in the ileum. The CFU of Lactobacillus spp. of birds fed yeast culture at 0.1% was higher in the cecum compared to other treatments (P<0.05). Total cholesterol level of chicks fed 0.1% yeast culture seemed to be lower compared to that of other treatments, whereas LDL-cholesterol level was significantly lower than those of the control and 0.4% treatment. ND antibody titer tended to be higher in the yeast culture treatments than the control, but was not significantly different. The results of these experiments indicated that 0.2% yeast culture may have a potential to reduce the noxious gas emission in broiler houses and maximize the performance of broiler chicks.

To develop an effective utilization method of skipjack tuna viscera, fish meal by an improved fermentation method(FFMA) was prepared by fermentation of the solid materials separated from autoclaved viscera with Aspergillus oryzae for 72 hours and by adding the concentrated soluble extracts separated from autoclaved viscera to the fermenting solid materials during fermentation, and FFMA fish meal was compared with the fish meals prepared by Kato mathod(FFMN) and conventional nonfermenting method(NFM). FFMN fish meal was prepared by fermenting the solid materials separated from autoclaved viscera with Aspergillus oryzae for 17 hours without adding the soluble extract. The extracts from FFMA fish meal(FFMA-E) and raw viscera(RM-E) were also prepared respectively after digestion with proteases obtained from Bacillus subtilis and Aspergillus oryzae and compared with each other on the contents of free amino acids. The peroxide values decreased greatly in contents of $Vitamin\;B_{1},\;B_{2}\;and\;C$ significantly increased in FFMA fish meal compared with those of other fish meals. The total free amino acid content of FFMA-E was significantly higher then that of RM-E. The total free essential amino acid content also greatly increased in FFMA-E in which threonine, methionine and lysine showed remarkable increments. Almost all individual nonessential amino acids were higher in FFMA-E then in RM-E. The content of taurine, a nonprotein amino acid, greatly increased compared with other nonprotein amino acids in both extracts.

HanPoong Leading (HPL)-04 were prepared with different oriental medicines (balk of Kalopanax pictus balk, Chaenomelis Fructus, Angelica gigas root, Zingiber officinale, Raphanus sativus Linne and Saururus chinensis Baill.) to investigate the protective effects of HPL-04 on cartilage degradation in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Rat articular chondrocytes incubated with rhIL-$1{\alpha}$ markedly increased matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and 9 activities, decreased cell viability and reduced chondrogenic gene expression. 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, MMP-2 and 9 activities and real time RT-PCR indicated that HPL-04 counteracted these harmful effects in dose-dependent manner. In addition, for experimental OA in vivo, monosodium iodoacetate (MIA, 0.5 mg/50 ${\mu}L$) was injected into knee joints of rats and administered HPL-04 to rats for 4 consecutive weeks after MIA treatment. The experimental data showed that treatment with HPL-04 significantly prevented of MMP-2 and 9 activities in articular cartilage. Histopathological and micro-CT evaluations of the knee joints also revealed that HPL-04 effectively ameliorated MIA-induced degenerative OA. In conclusion, HPL-04 has potential applicability for the prevention and treatment of degenerative OA.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the trends and characteristics of 'stress urinary incontinence' research through word frequency analysis, and their relationships were modeled using word embedding. Abstract data of 9,868 papers containing abstracts in PubMed's MEDLINE were extracted using a Python program. Then, through frequency analysis, 10 keywords were selected according to the high frequency. The similarity of words related to keywords was analyzed by Word2Vec machine learning algorithm. The locations and distances of words were visualized using the t-SNE technique, and the groups were classified and analyzed. The number of studies related to stress urinary incontinence has increased rapidly since the 1980s. The keywords used most frequently in the abstract of the paper were 'woman', 'urethra', and 'surgery'. Through Word2Vec modeling, words such as 'female', 'urge', and 'symptom' were among the words that showed the highest relevance to the keywords in the study on stress urinary incontinence. In addition, through the t-SNE technique, keywords and related words could be classified into three groups focusing on symptoms, anatomical characteristics, and surgical interventions of stress urinary incontinence. This study is the first to examine trends in stress urinary incontinence-related studies using the keyword frequency analysis and word embedding of the abstract. The results of this study can be used as a basis for future researchers to select the subject and direction of the research field related to stress urinary incontinence.

Bomb calorimeter was developed for measuring the calorific value of combustible matter such as wastes. The calorimeter consist of bomb, stirred-water type bucket, thermometer and ignition circuit. Operation and performance of the calorimeter have been tested experimentally. In the present study, calorific values of light oil, lamp oil and bunker C oil is measured using the bomb calorimeter. Mass of the sample is fixed at lg, and oxygen pressure in the bomb is used as an experimental parameter. Sample in the oxygen bomb is burned with electrically heated Ni-Cr wire of 100mm in length, and temperature of water in the bucket become increased by $5^{\circ}C$ during about 30min. Calorific value of the sample is calculated with the temperature difference of water. Combustion tests, such as the record of temperature history and the inspection of remnants, are performed at 4, 6, 8 and 10 atm of the oxygen pressure. From the test results, oxygen pressure in the bomb must be over 10atm for complete combustion.

Ground-water temperature is one of the parameters for observing diarges in the state of the ground-water regime in time and space, which relate to conditions for recharge as well as the influence of various natural and man-induced fadors on the regime. Because ground-water satura tes much of the rock materiats in the upper layer of the earth's csust the water temperature reflects in part the temperature of the water-bearing rocks. The mobffity and thennal capadty of groud-waters, however, serves to redistribute some of the heat within the stratosphere and to influence the developement of the geothermal regime within this sphere. The utilization of temperature data of the study area(25 points) in the solution of hydrogeologic problems requires an understanding of some of the fundamental aspects of subsurtice temperatures. These include the depth of penetration of heat waves generated of the surtace, the rate of propagation of the waves, and the geothermal gradient in the study area of Taegu.
