This study was performed to investigate latent problems of Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) prerequisite program operation at Korean slaughterhouses. We analyzed the slaughterhouses HACCP operation assessment reports implemented by Consumers Union of Korea during 2007 through 2008, and also reviewed the livestock products HACCP instruction manual published by Korea National Veterinary Research and Quarantine Service. Non-compliance rates were 14.2% of facility management and 10.9% of sanitary management at mammal slaughterhouses, and 7.4% of facility management and 6.7% of sanitary management at poultry slaughterhouses. A big obstacle to better HACCP operation was a repeated non-compliances identified at the same slaughterhouse. Twenty-six inspection items of the facility management, which were same items used for the business permission standard, is required to be amended to a safety control purpose. Sanitary management items also should be complemented to more precise contents for practical and objective evaluation.

Staphylococcus intermedius has been most common agent associated with dog diseases, such as pyoderma and otitis externa. Recently, S. schleferi subsp. coagulans has been also detected in suppurative diseases of dog and the organism formerly known as S. intermedius is called as S intermedius group (SIG), consisting of S. intermedius, Staphylococcus pseudinrermedius and Staphylococcus delphini. From a clinical point of view, S. pseudintermedius is emerged as the most significant species of the SIG. A total of 72 SIG tested were positive for the presence of Slnuc gene specific to S. iniermedius and 67 (93.1%) isolates were S. pseudintermethus and only 5 (6.9%) S. intermedius, differentiating on the basis of arginine dyhydrolase production. None of the strains was identified as S. schleiferi subsp. coagulans. As results, S. pseudinrermedius was found to be dominant in SIG from dogs in Jeju.

Egg yolk immunoglobulin (IgY) is the antibody in egg yolk and can be produced in egg yolk by immunizing hens with antigens. IgY is functionally equivalent to mammalian IgG. It is found in the serum of the chicken and is passed from the mother chicken to the embryo via the egg yolk, a process that results in a high concentration of IgY in the egg yolk. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of specific IgY against enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) K99, Salmonella Typhimurium and Salmonella Choleraesuis that cause porcine bacterial diseases. To prepare specific IgY, Hy-Line Brown chickens were vaccinated with killed vaccine complex including E. coli K99, S. Typhimurium and S. Choleraesuis. The chicken egg yolk antibodies were purified from egg yolk by ammonium sulfate precipitation and the quality of the final preparation was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electro-phoresis (SDS-PAGE). Titres of specific IgY in final preparations were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Antibody titers peaked at 3 weeks regardless the bacterial types and the similar patterns of immune response were observed for respective pathogens. In growth inhibitor test, specific IgY showed inhibitory effect on bacterial growth. After 0, 3, 6 and 12 hour of incubation with specific IgY (100 ㎍/㎖, 250 ㎍/㎖, 500 ㎍/㎖), there was a significant decrease in the growth (A 600nm ) of E. coli K99, S. Typhimurium and S. Choleraesuis compared to nonspecific IgY and controls. In BALB/c mice, the effect of specific IgY (100 ㎎/㎏, 250 ㎎/㎏) on bacterial challenges was investigated by intramuscular injection and oral administration of bacteria. Mice treated with specific IgY showed high survival rate though there was no significant differences on blood biochemichal examinations between treated and untreated groups. These results indicate the potential of specific IgY for the treatment of porcine bacterial diseases caused by E. coli K99, S. Typhimurium and S. Choleraesuis.

During the past dozens of years, animal species indigenous to Korea has been emerged as a symbol of healthy and well-being lifestyle. Developing new cross hybrid and making brand in Korean native chickens serve as an example of pursuing a well-being life. However, lack of systematic management. intervention from the small scaled middlemen during the multi-stages of marketing, poor hygiene at moorings and live bird market, and possibility of contacting to wild birds have been pointed out as risk factors to the outbreaks of highly pathogenic avian influenza ([1PM), especially for small back yard flocks. This study describes the schema of husbandry and marketing on Korean native chickens, and their putative associations with the outbreaks of RPM during the last two big epidemics occurred in the Republic of Korea, which were in the year of 2008 and 2010/2011.

The sensitivities of PrP Sc detection methods, western blotting (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC) and protein mis-folding cyclic amplification (PMCA) techniques were compared from brains, spleens and blood of mice challenged with PrP Sc of murine-adapted BSE strain 301C. PrP Sc was detected in the spleen from 30 dpi by IHC and at 60 dpi by WB. At 30 dpi, disease-specific signals of PrP Sc was observed in only two follicles of a single spleen. PrP Sc was detected in spleen at 10 dpi with PMCA after 5 rounds of amplification. Clinical signs were obviously shown from 240 dpi, and coincided with first detection of PrP Sc in brains by WB, IHC and PMCA after one round amplification. In addition, PrP Sc was also detected in blood at 60, 180 and 240 dpi with PMCA after 5 rounds of amplification. The FDC-M1 epitope, which appears in immature FDCs, and PrP Sc were detected in follicles first at 30 dpi, whilst the FDC-M2 epitope of mature FDCs was detected at 60 dpi. More FDC-M2 epitope and PrP Sc were detected in follicles as disease progressed. The CD21/35 epitope is expressed on both FDCs and germinal center B cells. The pattern of CD21/35 expressing cells was similar to but less dominant than that of FDCs.

This study aims to estimate the in vivo hair growth effects of Dansam-Samultang. A total of 40, six-week-old C578L/ 6 male mice were classified into four groups (10 in each group): Control (C, distilled water), Positive control (PC, minoxidil 3%), Experimental I (El, Dansam-Samultang ethanol extact 2%), and Experimental 2 (E2, Dansam-Samultang toner type 2%). Samples (150 t`l) were applied percutaneously on the back, once a day, six days a week, for four weeks. Water and feed conswnption, and body weight were measured once a week, in addition, macroscopic hair growth was observed once a week. On the second and fourth week, we took skin tissues after an autopsy, and measured the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and ` -glutamyl transpeptidase (r -GT) enzyme activity, and mRNA development of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-l), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and transforming growth factor-fl I (TGF-fl I). There were no significant differences among the groups in water and feed consumption, body weight gain, and feed efficiency. In a macroscopic observation, hair growth effects showed in order of PC, El, E2, and C groups. Both ALP and 7 -GT enzyme activity showed significant increase (p<0.05) for the PC, El and E2 groups, compared to the C group. En the mRNA gene expressions of hair growth factors, IGF-1 and VEGF. were significantly greater for the PC, El and E2, compared to that of the C group, but significantly lower (p`<O.O5) in the mRNA expression of inhibitory factor, TGF- fi 1. From these results, it is estimated that Dansam-Samultang has positive effects on hair growth or hair loss prevention.

The effect of pt-I values of 6.5, 6.0, 5.0, and 4.0 on spore germination of Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) was investigated at water activity (a%) values of 0.98, 0.96, 0.94, and 0.90 in a controlled medium at 30°C for 7 days. The best condition for germination of spores of B. cereus was observed at pH 6.5 with aw 0.98. No matter what combination of a and pH is used, a complete inhibition of spore germination was achieved at either a,.. value of 0.90 or pH value of 4.0. Spore germination was also delayed or inhibited at aw 0.98 with pH 4.0, aw 0.96 with pH 5.0, and aw 0.94 with pH 6.5, 6.0, 5.0, or 4.0. The results indicate that the combined inhibitory effects of pH and water activity on the germination of B. cereus spores in controlled medium could be applied to food preservation.

Porcine has been known to have a great impact on the studies of organ transplantation, biomaterial production and specific biomodel development such as transgenic animals. To achieve such therapeutic purposes, establishment of porcine embryonic stem cells (pESCs) will be needed. Especially, in vitro differentiation toward neural cells from pESCs can be a useful tool for the study of early neural development and neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, these cells can also be used in cell replacement therapies and drug development for neuroprotective and/or neurotoxic reagents. Although several studies reported the successful isolation of pES-like cells, it has been a big challenge to determine optimal conditions to generate pESCs without loss of pluripotency for a long time. The present study was performed for generation and characterization of putative pESCs, and differentiation into neurons and astrocytes. In this study, porcine blastocysts were produced by parthenogenetically activated oocytes. The putative pESCs were cultured in pESC growth media supplemented with a growth factor and cytokines (bFGF, LIF and SCF). Subculture of pESCs was conducted by mechanical dissociation using syringe needles after 4-5 days of incubation. As results, six putative pESC lines were maintained over thirty passages. The putative pESCs were compact, round, flat, and single layered, which were similar to human embryonic stem cell morphologically. Six pES-like cells were positive for alkaline phosphatase activity at every three passages. Furthermore, Oct-3/4, Sox-2, Nanog and SSEA-4 were shown to be expressed in those cells. Also, normal karyotypes of pESCs were observed by Giemsa-staining. Differentiation potential into the three germ layers of the putative pESCs was demonstrated by the formation of embryoid bodies (EB). Besides, the study of ESC is very important in aspect of its application to not only the cell-based replacement therapies but also cellular differentiation research. Our results also showed that RA and N2 supplements activated the neural differentiation in pESC5. Neurofilament-l60 were expressed in neural precursor cells. The expression of markers for specific neural lineages, such as Microtubule-associated protein-2 expressed in matured neuron, was also induced from embryonic neural progenitors. In summary, the pESCs were generated from the parthenogenetically activated blastocysts and the typical characteristics of the cells were maintained for the long term culture. Furthermore, it was successful to differentiate the pESCs into various neural lineages through in vitro neurogenesis system. Eventually, pESCs will be excellent biomedicine in incurable and/or zoonotic diseases by regenerating the damaged tissue.
