Copper deficiency was induced in eight male buffalo calves by adding molybdenum (30 ppm wet basis) to their diet. Copper status was monitored from the liver copper concentration and a level below 30 ppm (DM basis) was considered as deficient. Haemoglobin, haematocrit, total and differential leucocyte numbers were determined. The functions of peripheral neutrophils were assessed by in vitro phagocytosis and killing of Staphylococcus aureus. The effect of molybdenum induced copper deficiency on bone marrow was monitored. The mean total leucocyte count was unaffected whereas a significant fall in neutrophil count coincided with the fall in hepatic copper level to $23.9{\pm}2.69$ ppm. Reduced blood neutrophil numbers was not accompanied by any change in the proportion of different neutrophil precursor cells in bone marrow. It was hypothesised that buffalo calves were more tolerant to dietary molybdenum excess than cattle. It was concluded that neutropenia in molybdenum induced copper deficiency occurred without any effect on their synthesis and maturation process. Bone marrow studies in healthy calves revealed higher percentage of neutrophilic myelocytes and metamyelocytes as compared to cattle.

본 시험은 Salmonella gallinarum에 대한 Lactobacillus, medicinal plants extract, essential oil 급여 시 산란계의 생산성, 맹장 내 미생물 균총, 조직중량 및 혈구 조성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 수행하였다. 공시동물로 65주령 산란계(Hy-line brown) 총 100수를 공시하였고, 시험처리는 항생제 무첨가구(NC)와 항생제 첨가구(PC)를 대조구로 하였으며, 유산균 0.1% 첨가구(LB), 약용식물 추출물 100 ppm 첨가구(MPE) 및 식물 추출물 100 ppm 첨가구(EO)를 처리구로 두었다. 배치 후 1주일동안 시험 사료를 급여하고, 이후 Salmonella gallinarum을 경구투여하였다. 조사항목으로는 생산성, 맹장 내 미생물 균총, 조직중량 및 혈구 조성을 조사하였다. Salmonella gallinarum를 경구투여한 처리구와 투여하지 않은 처리구의 경우, Salmonella gallinarum를 경구투여한 처리구가 산란율, 1일 산란량 및 사료섭취량이 다소 감소하는 경향을 보였고, 유산균(LB), 약용식물 추출물(MPE) 및 식물추출물(EO)을 급여하였을 때 약용식물 추출물(MPE)을 급여한 처리구가 대조구에 비해 다소 개선되었지만 처리구간의 통계적인 유의차는 없었다. 맹장 내 미생물의 경우, Salmonella gallinarum을 경구투여하였을 때, Salmonella 수가 유의하게 증가하였으나(P<0.05), coliform bacteria 및 유산균 수에는 영향을 미치지 않았으며, Salmonella gallinarum과 유산균(LB), 약용식물 추출물(MPE), 및 식물추출물(EO) 사이의 상호작용도 나타나지 않았다. 조직중량에서도 Salmonella gallinarum 경구투여와 유산균(LB), 약용식물(MPE) 및 식물추출물(MPE) 첨가에 대한 통계적인 유의차는 없었고, 혈구 조성에서도 Salmonella gallinarum 경구투여와 유산균(LB), 약용식물 추출물(MPE) 및 식물추출물(EO) 첨가에 대한 유의차는 없었지만 각각 총 백혈구 수가 증가하는 경향을 보이기도 하였다.

목적: 이 연구는 인공슬관절 전치환술을 받은 환자들에서 인공관절의 감염을 진단하는데 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 표지 백혈구 스캔의 진단적 유용성을 평가하고자하였다. 대상 및 방법: 인공슬관절 전치환술 후 감염이 의심되어 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 표지 백혈구 스캔 검사를 받은 20예 중 최종진단이 확실한 17명의 25예의 인골슬관절을 대상으로 하였다. 대상 환자는 남자가 1명, 여자가 16명으로, 평균연령은 65세였다. 모든 환자에서 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 표지 백혈구를 이용한 전신 평면영상과 슬관절 SPECT를 얻었다. 대상군은 임상적으로 감염이 의심되는 정도에 따라 3군으로 나누었다. 감염이 강하게 의심되었던 인공슬관절군 (A군: 11예), 감염 여부를 감별하기 어려웠던 인공슬관절군 (B군: 6예), 무증상의 반대측 인공슬관절군 (C군: 8예)으로 분류하였다. 최종진단은 수술, 조직소견, 균 배양 및 임상적 추적검사로 결정하였다. 결과: A군 인골관절 11예 모두와 B군의 6예중 2예, 총 13예가 감염으로 확진되었다. $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO 표지 백혈구 스캔은 A군 11예 모두에서 진양성을 보였고, B군에서는 진양성 2예, 위양성.: 1예, 진음성 3예를 보였으며, C군에서는 위양성 2예와 진음성 6예를 보였다. 전체적으로 인공슬관절의 감염을 진단하는 데 있어서 그 예민도, 특이도, 및 정확도는 각각 100%, 75%, 88%이었다. 결론: 인공슬관절 감염의 진단에 있어 $^{99m}Tc$-HMPAO표지 백혈구 스캔은 매우 예민한 방법이었다. 그러나, 상대적으로 낮은 진단적 특이도를 높이기 위하여 추가적인 골수 스캔이 인공슬관절 감염이 의심되는 환자의 진단에 필요하리라 생각된다.

홍삼추출물을 다양한 농도 (1-50 mg/kg)로 어체의 복강내에 주입하여 3일 후 어체를 희생시켜서 Ht, lysozyme, TIC 및 NBT reduction을 측정한 바, 10 ㎍/㎎ 이상의 처치군에 유의성 있는 증가를 보였다. 한편, in vitro에서 홍삼 추출물을 처리시 림프구의 증식능에 미치는 영향은 PHA 혹은 Con A와 혼합처리 경우에는 10 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$농도에서 가장 높은 증가를 보였으나, 고농도 (100 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$)에서는 억제되었다. 그렇지만, RGE 단독 혹은 LPS혼합 처리군에서는 증가효과가 유의성 있게 나타나지 않았다. 한편, 백혈구의 유주능 및 발생기산소 (ROI)의 생성은 10 ${\mu}g/m{\ell}$이상의 처리군에서 유의성 있는 증가를 보였다. 이러한 결과는 홍삼추출물을 복강내로 처리시 림프구의 증식 및 탐식세포의 기능을 증가시키는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 향후 면역보조제로 사용하기 위해서는 경구투여에 따른 실행이 수행되어져야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Background & Objectives : Rhinitis is an inflammation of nasal mucosa and the symtoms are watery rhinorrhea, sneezing, itchy nose, and nasal obstruction. Rhinitis is classified into allergic rhinitis and nonallergic. Allergic rhinitis is an immune reaction by allergen, and vasomotor rhinitis which is nonallergic noninfectious hypersensitive reaction. The incidence of allergic rhinitis has increased and the rate of vasomotor rhinitis is high. However there have been no studies about vasomotor rhinitis compared with allergic rhinitis. And there have been no studies so far performed on the effect of Tongkwansan. Therefore this study is aimed to find out the effects of Tongkwansan on allergic rhinitis and vasomotor rhinitis. Materials and Methods : Fifteen BALC/c mouses divided into three groups : normal group, control group and sample group. To induce the allergic rhinitis in control group and sample group, mouses were sensitized intrapertioneally 0.1 % ovalvumin solution three times at intervals of 1 week. Then intranasal sensitization was performed by diffusing 0.1 % ovalbumin solution 3 times at intervals of 2 days. After that time, mouses in the sample group were oral and administration treated by Tongkwansan for 28 days. We observed changes in nasal mucosa and submucosa; also changes in the segment of leucocyte, erythrocyte, neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, IL-4 and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in blood. We used the statistical methods of ANOVA test(p<0.05). Results : There were no significant changes statistically in leucocyte, erythrocyte, neutrophil, lymphocytem, monocyte, eosinophil, IL-4 and $IFN-{\gamma}$ in blood(p<0.05). Hypertrophy of epithelium in nasal mucosa and expansion of glandular cells in nasal submucosa were decreased in treated group when compared with control group. Conclusion : According to above results, it is supposed that Tongkwansan has significant effects on vasomotor rhinitis which is nonallergic and noninfectious.

The present study aimed to determine the effect of oral ${\beta}$-glucan on mucositis and leukopenia in 62 consecutive patients with colorectal cancer treated with an adjuvant FOLFOX-4 regimen. The patients were retrospectively evaluated in 2 groups: one group received ${\beta}$-glucan and the other did not (control group). Leucocytes, neutrophils, and platelets were evaluated before and 1 week after chemotherapy and oral mucositis and diarrhea were noted. Leucocyte and neutrophil counts after chemotherapy in the ${\beta}$-glucan group were $7,300/mm^3$ and $3,800/mm^3$, respectively, and the reductions, as compared to baseline, were not significant (p=0.673 and 0.784). The median platelet count was $264,000/mm^3$ after chemotherapy in the ${\beta}$-glucan group and the reduction, as compared to baseline, was borderline significant (p=0.048). In the control group, reduction in leucocyte, neutrophil, and platelet counts was statistically significant. Oral mucositis and diarrhea were less common in the ${\beta}$-glucan group. We conclude that ${\beta}$-glucan can be used to reduce the adverse effects of chemotherapy.

A total of 109 heads of horses and ponies from eight horseback riding clubs nearby Central Taiwan were investigated to evaluate the blood parameters and the biochemical compositions of serum for the documentation of clinical pathological diagnosis and exercise physiology. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein of resting horses. The sex difference in the blood traits were compared both in horses and in ponies. Results shows that total plasma proteins (PP) and hematocrit (PCV) were found higher in male horses than in females (p < 0.05). The sexual effect also exertes a significant influence on the leucocyte (WBC) count, but not on the erythrocyte (RBC) concentration. According to the differential counts of leucocytes, the number of monocytes and lymphocytes was higher in the male pony than that of in male horse. A close relationship Between the erythrocyte sedimention rate (ESR) and the other blood parameters were found especially in PCV, RBC concentration, and plasma protein level. The average ESR observed at 60 minutes were $21.80{\pm}21.87mm$, $39.50{\pm}18.90mm$ and $43.73{\pm}17.89mm$ in stallions, geldings, and mares, respectively. Most of the biochemical components of horse serum detected were distributed in normal ranges, although some of the items show a great variation in such a large sample size.
