타우린이 산란계의 생산성에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 두 번의 시험을 수행하였다. 시험 1에서는 19주령의 산란계를 사료에 타우린을 첨가하지 않은 대조구, 0.4%, 0.8% 그리고 1.2%를 첨가한 4가지 시험구에 균일하게 분포시켜 10주 동안 사양실험을 실시하였다. 0.8 % 타우린 첨가시 난중은 대조구에 비하여 평균 1.2g이 낮았다(P<0.Of). 산란율은 타우린의 첨가구가 대조구에 비하여 약 8%∼24%정도 낮게 나타났으며(P<0.05), 일당산란량은 타우린 첨가구가 대조구에 비하여 약 3%∼l4% 정도 낮게 나타났다(P<0.05). 사료섭취량은 타우린 첨가에 의하여 대조구보다 약 11%∼15% 정도 감소하였으나(P<0.05), 사료요구율은 차이가 없었다. 난질 그리고 난황의 중성지방과 콜레스테롤 농도는 처리구간 차이가 없었다. 시험 2에서는 81주령 산란계를 사료에 타우린을 첨가하지 않은 대조구, 1% 그리고 2% 첨가한 3가지 시험구에 균일하게 분포시켜 6주 동안 사양시험을 실시하였다. 난중, 산란율, 일당산란량, 사료섭취량, 사료요구량, 난질 및 난황의 콜레스테롤 함량은 처리구간 차이가 없었으나, 난황의 중성지방 함량은 타우린 첨가구가 대조구에 비하여 약 14%∼16% 높았다. 결론적으로 본 연구의 결과는 산란초기에 타우린의 급여는 산란계의 생산성을 저하시킨다는 것을 암시한다.

An experiment was conducted to study the effects of Ascorbic Acid (AA) supplementations in the layer and broiler diets kept in the natural hot humid tropical climate ($20-35^{\circ}C$). The layers and the broilers were fed on normal commercial diet as control while supplementation of 400 and 600 mg/kg Ascorbic Acid made up the experimental diets. The results showed that AA supplementation in the layers significantly reduced egg weight and increased Haugh unit values of the eggs, but produced no significant effects on feed intake, body weight, egg production, respiratory rate and body temperature. The shell thickness was slightly improved, though not significantly, with AA supplementation. AA supplementation in broilers improved body weight gain and FCR and reduced the effect of heat stress as shown by lower body temperature and respiratory rates.

압란유의 항암활성 및 면역 반응조절자로서의 기능을 알아본 실험 결과, 마우스 비장세포의 증식반응은 항진시켰으나 YAC-1 세포주의 증식능은 억제시켰다. CD4$^{+}$T세포 및 CD8$^{+}$T세포의 비율이 정상대조군 마우스의 그것에 비하여 증가하였으나 CD4$^{+}$/CD8$^{+}$ 비는 차이가 없었으며 비장세포에서 IL-2수용체의 발현이 항진되었다. 또한, 복강대식세포로부터의 nitric oxide와 TNF-$\alpha$ 생산을 항진시켰으며, 복강 대식세포는 탐식능이 현저하게 항진되었고 B16F10 흑생종의 폐전이가 억제됨을 알 수 있었다. 따라서, 압란유의 항암제 및 면역반응 조절자로서의 개발 가능성이 있음을 시사한다.

산란계에서 본 연구의 목적은 생균제(PY0.3%, PY0.5%) 를 산란계에 급여하였을 때 산란율, 산란수, 난중, 등외란, 파란율 등을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 산란계에서의 사양시험은 36주령 ISA brown 산란계 300수를 공시하였으며, 처리구로는 옥수수-대두박 기초 사료구(Con; basal diet), 기초 사료구에 일반 효모 0.3%(basal diet+0.3% 일반효모), 일반 효모 0.5%(basal diet+0.5% 일반효모), 활성 효모 0.3%(basal diet+0.3% 유전자 변형 효모), 활성 효모 0.5%(basal diet+0.5% 유전자 변형 효모)를 첨가한 것으로 구성되었다. 총 13주간의 사양시험 기간 동안, 산란율, 산란수, 난중, 등 외란, 파란율 등을 연구했다. 사양시험에 이용한 닭은 각각 20수씩 3반복을 하였으며, 총 300수를 사용했다. 시험결과 시험군인 활성 효모 첨가군이 대조군에 비해서 산란율, 산란수, 난중에서 우수한 효과를 보였으며, 일반효모 첨가군에 비해서는 산란율, 산란수에 대해서는 우수하였으나 난중에서는 유의성이 없었다(p<0.05). 등외란과 파란율에서는 첨가 군에서 큰 란이 생산되는 비율이 크다 보니까 상대적으로 등 외란과 파란율이 높아진 면도 있다. 이러한 우수한 결과는 PY를 첨가함으로써 면역 기능강화와 bacteriocin의 기능과 효모에서 분비된 여러 가지 유용물질의 상호작용에서 기인된 결과로 보여 지며 이런 이유로 사료효율 개선과 병원성 미생물의 억제효과 등이 복합적으로 작용하여 상승효과로 작용했기 때문이라고 추정된다.

Forty-five Hisex commercial layers and forty-five local Saudi breed layers were used to determine the acceptable limit of short-term water restriction in the late phase of production, when the problem of high feed and water consumption is expected. The experiment was performed under hot and arid environmental conditions when the layers were at fifty weeks of age. Layers from each breed were randomly assigned in groups of five into nine floor pens. The average environmental temperature was 37.2-$38.6^{\circ}C$, and the relative humidity was between 20 to 37%. The trial was divided into 3 periods; control (1 week), water restriction (2 weeks) and rehydration (1 week). During the restriction period, layers from each breed were divided into three groups that received 20, 40, and 0% restriction of drinking water relative to their consumed water during the control period. During the study, feed and water consumption, body weight, changes in body weight, egg production, primary antibody response to SRBC, and rectal temperature were evaluated. Water restriction did not result in any clear effect on feed intake in either breed, however, commercial layers tended to consume less feed compared to the local breed. Body weight declined with water restriction during the first week of restriction in the commercial breed regardless of rate of restriction, but it was delayed until the second week in the local breed. Water restriction of 40% decreased egg production in both breeds but with a delay of 1 week in the local breed. Antibody level to SRBC was not affected by water restriction in the commercial line while it was highly affected in the local breed. A water restriction of 20% is considered to be an acceptable limit under the current experimental conditions without a negative effect on egg production in both breeds and considering the immune status of the local breed. Whereas, 40% restriction had a negative effect on egg production, and varied effects in the other traits in both breeds.

한국산 rotifer, B. plicatilis, S-type를 대상으로 식물부유생물, 농축 Chlorella 및 효모류에 대한 내구란 생산과 먹이 종류에 따라 생산된 내구란의 부화율을 조사하였다. 4 종류(Chlorella ellipsoidea, Nannochloris oculata, Tetraselmis suecica, Pavlova lutheri) 가운데 N. oculata는 3,760개/20 ml로 가장 많은 내구란을 생산하였다. 그러나 식물부유생물 종류에 따른 부화율의 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 9 종류의 농축먹이(유지효모, 빵효모, 두 종류의 해수산 농축 냉장 Chlorella, 해수산 냉동 Chlorella, 냉동 해수산 Chlorella ($70\%$)+ 빵효모($30\%$), 냉동 해수산 Chlorella ($30\%$)+ 빵효모($70\%$), 두 종류의 냉장 담수산 Chlorella)에서 내구란 생산이 가장 많은 먹이는 냉동 Chlorella($30\%$)+빵효모($70\%$)와 냉장 담수산 Chlorella에서 각각 283개/ml로 나타났다. Rotifer $10^4$개체와 건조 먹이 1 mg당 내구란 생산은 냉동 Chlorella ($30\%$)+빵효모($70\%$)에서 각각 5,566개와 2,131개로 가장 높게 나타났다. 농축 먹이에 따른 내구란의 부화율은 유지효모가 $67.4\%$로 가장 높았다. 본 연구의 결과, 경제적인 내구란 생산을 위하여 빵효모와 농축 냉동 Chlorella를 혼합하여 공급하는 것이 효과적인 것으로 판단된다.

Insulin-like Growth Factors (IGFs) and IGF-binding protein act as intra-ovarian regulators that modulate the proliferation and differentiation of the granulosa and theca cells. Moreover, the IGF system is involved in metabolism by modulating the synthesis and degradation of glycogen and protein in animals. However the effect of the IGF system on egg productivity or body growth in KNOC has not been studied in depth. Therefore, this study was performed to investigate differences of serum IGFs and binding protein expressions between two groups showing high and low egg production or body weight and to elucidate the relationship of IGFs with egg productivity and body growth. KNOCs were divided into high and low groups depending on their egg productivity or body growth, and sera were collected every 10 wk from 20 till 60 wk. Serum IGF-I and -II concentration were measured by RIA using human and mouse antiserum and chicken standards. IGFBP was detected by Western ligand blotting. IGF-I concentrations were significantly greater in the high egg production group compared with those in the low egg production group (30 wk, p<0.01; 20 and 40 wk, p<0.05). Also, differences in IGF-II amounts between the two groups were detected at 60 wk (p<0.05). But IGFBPs in the low egg production group were more intense than that in the high egg production group through the egg laying period. The correlation between IGF-I concentration and number of egg production is significantly positive (20 wk, r=0.2729: p<0.05; 40 wk, r=0.3500: p<0.01), while IGF-II shows no correlation with egg productivity. In male KNOC, IGF-I and -II concentrations in the high body weight group are lower than that in the low body weight group. Body weight also shows a negative correlation with the serum IGF-II concentration in male chickens (20 wk, r=-0.5901: p<0.01). Consequently, we suggest that IGFs and binding protein are (in)directly involved in the egg productivity and body growth in KNOC.

This study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary low grade soybean, fermented with Aspergillus oryzae (FSB 1) or Bacillus subtilis var. natto (FSB 2), on egg production and quality, fat and cholesterol content, and the fatty acid (FA) profile of eggs by lipid layer. A total of 18 Hi-Line strain layers, 22 wk of age, were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments: no fermented soybean (control), control with 15% FSB 1 (C + FSB 1), and control with 15% FSB 2 (C + FSB 2). The rate of egg production and egg weight were evaluated between two periods: one was from the 1st to 4th wk and the other was from the 5th to 8th wk. At the 8th wk, a total of 30 eggs were randomly selected from each treatment group and analyzed for physical quality, fat content, fatty acid composition and cholesterol content. The results showed that egg production was increased in hens fed with diets containing fermented soybeans from the 5th to 8th wk period (p<0.01). A similar tendency was observed through eight weeks' cumulative egg production (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in egg production between the C + FSB 1 and C + FSB 2 treatment groups (p>0.05). Egg weight and other physical properties did not vary between treatment groups (p>0.05). Egg yolks among different treatment groups were similar in fat content, but egg yolks in the C + FSB 1 and C + FSB 2 groups had lower oleic acid (p<0.05), higher linoleic, ${\alpha}$-linolenic, and arachidonic acids (p<0.01), and lower cholesterol content (p<0.05) than those in the control group. In conclusion, supplementation of fermented low grade soybeans might be useful as a functional feedstuff to improve egg production and quality for a healthy human diet.

The mass production of fertilized eggs of the convict grouper Hyporthodus septemfasciatus was studied from 2013 to 2020 for industrial aquaculture. The experiment was divided into two groups. Group 1 broodstock was raised from wild-caught fry and used from 2013 to 2020. Group 2 broodstock was raised from artificially propagated fry and used from 2019 to 2020. Males used to collect sperm for artificial insemination weighed more than 7 kg. The effects of various hormones on artificial ovulation were investigated from 2013 onward. Among these, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (LHRHa) at 100 ㎍/kg body weight showed the most effective results and was used for artificial egg collection from 2014 onward. In Group 1, the average total egg production per year, average egg production per individual, fertilization rate, and hatching rate were 26,143 mL, 609.7 mL, 93.3%, and 91.8%, respectively, and in Group 2, were 2,750 mL, 316.5 mL, 92.1%, and 90.4%, respectively. Based on these results, we showed that a large number of fertilized eggs for artificial seeding could be produced consistently. Moreover, the mass production of fertilized eggs in Group 2 establishes a foundation for the complete aquaculture cycle of H. septemfasciatus.

There exists considerable evidence that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is involved in the regulation of ovulation rate and follicle development. IGF-I is believed to modulate the effects of gonadotropins on follicular growth and cell differentiation via paracrine and autocrine mechanisms. Therefore, this study was performed to relate the expression of IGF-I on ovaries and follicles with egg productivity at 60 wk. The egg productivity of 70 KNOC was recorded from 20 to 60 wk. Blood was taken every 10 wk and ovaries and follicles were taken at 60 wk. Serum IGF-I and IGF-I of ovaries and follicles were measured by radioimmunoassay. Based on egg production levels up to 60 wk and ovarian IGF-I expression at 60 wk, respectively. Chickens were divided into two groups, high and low. Egg production and serum IGF-I in the high IGF-I group were higher than those in the low group. Moreover, the IGF-I expression of follicles in the high ovarian IGF-I expression group was higher than that in the low group. These finding are consistent with the report that IGF-I indirectly regulates ovulation in chickens, suggesting that this regulation may play an important role in improved egg productivity.
