복숭아심식나방(Carposina sasakii)은 한국, 일본 및 중국 동북부 지방에 분포하며 사과, 배, 복숭아 등 수출관련 과수의 중요한 식물검역해충이다. 방사선 처리에 의한 수출과실의 복숭아심식나방 소독을 위하여 살충 및 발달억제에 필요한 방사선 조사량을 분석하였다. 복숭아심식나방 유충이 심식한 사과를 채집하여 0, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300Gy의 감마선을 처리하였다. 감마선 처리한 과실을 실온에 보관하면서 과실로부터 유충의 탈출율, 용화울, 우화율을 측정하였다. 유충의 탈출율은 무처리를 기준으로 했을 때에 각 조사량별로 100Gy(85.8%), 150Gy(55.4%), 200Gy(27.9%), 250Gy(13.2%), 300Gy(5.2%)로 나타났다. 용화율은 100Gy(48.8%), 150Gy(21.4%), 200Gy(7.7%), 250Gy(1.1%), 300Gy(0%)이고 우화율은 100Gy(5.4%), 150Gy(0%), 200Gy(0%), 250Gy(0%), 300Gy(0%)였다. 즉, 감마선 처리에 의한 복숭아심식나방 유충의 살충율은 300Gy조사했을 때에 95%였으며 우화 억제율은 150Gy 조사했을 때에 100%로 나타났다. 또한, 100Gy 조사했을 때에 일부 성충이 우화하였지만(5.4%) 산란율은 0%였다. 본 연구 결과를 토대로 복숭아심식나방과 같은 심식류 검역해충의 방제를 위하여 방사선 처리가 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다고 판단된다.

시중에 유통 중인 영양보충용 제품의 수용성 비타민 B1(thiamin), B2(riboflavin), B3(nicotinic acid and nicotine amide), B6(pyridoxine), C(ascorbic acid)의 신속한 동시분석 방법을 확립하기 위하여 본 연구를 실시하였다. 영양보충용 제품은 정제, 연질캅셀, 분말, 액상의 4가지 제형에 대해 27종의 제품을 구입한 후, Ion-pair 분리기법을 사용하여 HPLC-UVD를 이용한 동시분석 방법을 검토하였다. 비타민 B1, B2, B3, B6, C의 HPLC에 의한 동시분석 조건을 검토한 결과, 이동상은 0.02% triethylamine, 17.5% 메탄올, 5 μM sodium hexanesulfonic acid가 함유된 pH 3.5(acetic acid로 조절)의 수용액을 사용하였고, 용출시간은 다른 피크의 영향을 받지 않도록 30분으로 하였다. 수용성 비타민의 회수율은 96% 이상이었다. 본 연구에 의해 확립된 수용성 비타민의 동시분석 조건은 검량선의 직선성, 정밀성, 정확성, 기기적합성 등이 USP 및 ICH 기준에 적합하여 HPLC의 동시분석 방법으로 합당하였다. 수용성 비타민의 추출 용매는 제형에 따라 약간의 차이를 보이긴 했으나, 물이나 산성조건을 갖춘 HPLC의 이동상이 에탄올이나 메탄올보다 높은 추출 효율을 보였다. 초음파 추출기에 의한 추출 시간은 20분이 가장 적당하였다. 본 연구의 결과는 수용성 비타민의 신속한 추출 및 분석에 매우 효율적으로 이용될 것으로 기대된다.

The objective of this study was to compare the accuracy analysis and the effect of field application of a newly developed automatic heat detector in dairy cows. From 2009 to 2010, we used 48 Holstein cows (mounting cows : 38 heads, standing cows : 10 heads) raised in experimental barn of National Livestock Research Institute (RDA) for the accuracy analysis of automatic heat detector, and 14 Holstein cows raised in three commercial dairy farms of Cheonan and Pochun area for comparison of the effect of field application. The accuracy of response in cows attached with automatic heat detector was 86.8% (33/38) displayed on board when mounting activity observed, and 100% (10/10) when standing activity observed, and on average, 90.0% (43/48) displayed on board. The accuracy of automatic heat detector in on-farm test was 85.7% (12/14), and conception rate was 75.0% (9/12).

The purpose of this research was to study food behaviors and nutrient intakes according to body mass index(BMI) and body image recognition in 211 female university students in Incheon. The majority of the surveyed subjects were in the normal range for BMI. Most of these female university students preferred a thin body type and were not satisfied with their body shapes. Most also controlled their body weight for appearance by exercising and limiting food intake. The obese group often ate processed foods(p<0.01) and ate out(p<0.05). The underweight group and normal-weight group took vitamins and supplements more frequently(p<0.001). Those students who recognized their body image as a ``fat shape`` had good appetites(p<0.05) and those who recognized themselves as ``normal shape`` considered food formulations ate every meal (p<0.05) and consumed vitamins and other supplements frequently(p<0.01). The mean calorie intake of all students was about 80% of the recommend amount, so there was a risk of lack of various nutrients. The ``fat`` students by body image recognition had lower calorie intakes in order to reduce body weight. In all the groups, there was a lack of vitamins B1 and B2, as well as the minerals Ca and Fe. Therefore, education on correct body image recognition and training on proper weight control are deemed necessary. In addition, education and counseling on nutrition that are tailored to individual status are needed.

The purpose of this study was undertaken to evaluate of cryopreservation efficiency in α 1,3-galactosyltransferase knock-out(GalT KO) cloned miniature pig sperm. To compare ability of frozen-thawed sperm characteristics, three different pig strains (GalT KO) cloned miniature pig, PWG miniature pig and Duroc were used. The ejaculated semen from the three pig species was diluted with same volume extender and added to LEY solution for freezing. The diluted semen was placed in 0.5 ml straws, and freezing was initiated by exposing the straws to liquid nitrogen (LN2) vapours for 10 min before placing them into LN2 for cryopreservation. A fter thawing, the sperm ability were assessed for viability (SYBR-14/PI staining), abnormality (Rose Bengal staining), and acrosome status (intactness, intensity and capacitation) (chlorotetracycline, CTC staining). The viability of frozen-thawed GalT KO pig sperm had no significant difference as compared with Duroc and PWG miniature pig sperm. However, The CTC pattern of frozen-thawed GalT KO cloned miniature pig spermatozoa showed significantly lower rates in F pattern and AR pattern (p<0.05) and significantly higher rates in B pattern than Duroc and PWG miniature pig (p<0.05). The abnormality of GalT KO cloned miniature pig sperm was significantly lower as compared to Duroc and PWG miniature pig sperm (p<0.05). In conclusion, GalT KO cloned miniature pig semen can be cryopreserved successfully and used for artificial insemination reasonably.

The objective of this study was to compare the anticancer activity of glucosinolates against four different cancer cells; SNU-251, SNU-354, SNU-C4, MCF-7 and to determine the amounts of glucosinolates in mustard leaves. Green and red mustard leaves were cultivated on the field of Rural Development Administration from May to July, 2010. After the leaves were harvest and lypophilized, the fine powder was extracted with boiling 70% methanol(v/v) for the measurement of anticancer activity and then applied to the cancer cells obtained from Korean Cell Line Bank(KCLB). The anticancer activity of red leaf mustard was higher than that of green mustard leaf, particularly in SNU-251 for 24 hr and in SNU-C4 for 48 hr. In both green and red mustard leaf, sinigrin was the most abundant glucosinolte and was determined as 4.71 and 3.06 ㎎/g dry wt., respectively, but glucoiberin only presented 0.14 ㎎/g dry wt. with minor amounts.

Natural Omija belongs to magnoliaceae was known to possess natural odor, taste, color, and various pharmaceutical & chemical characteristics. Omija extraction was extracted using ethanol as a solvent. Omija extract showed a light red-violet color of viscous liquid state. Some conclusions from the result of characteristic experiment were obtained as follows. From the result of antimicrobial experiment, occurrence of staphylococuss aureus and aspergillus niger as microbes was decreased according to the passage of time. This phenomenon could know that Omija component is affected to antimicrobial effect. From the result of dye experiment, fiber dyeing showed with some ivory color after dyed to cotton and silk. This phenomenon could know that Omija component is affected to dyeing effect from observation of scanning electron microscope(SEM). From the result of instrument analysis, inorganic components of K(107.30ppm), Na(2.110ppm), Ca(0.935ppm), Mg(0.891ppm), Li(0.270ppm) etcs from Omija were detected with ICP/OES, and aromatic components of benzene(10.808), a-pinene(13.996), phenol(14.183), β-terpene(15.840), a-terpinolene(17.616) etcs from Omija were also detected with GC/MSD.

This study established hazards which may cause risk to human at farm during cultivation stage of paprika. Samples of plants (paprika, leaf, stem), cultivation environments (water, soil), personal hygiene (hand, glove,clothes), work utensils (carpet, basket, box) and airborne bacteria were collected from three paprika farms (A, B, C)located in Western Gyeongnam, Korea. The collected samples were assessed for biological (sanitary indications and major foodborne pathogens), chemical (heavy metals, pesticide residues) and physical hazards. In biological hazards,total bacteria and coliform were detected at the levels of 1.9~6.6 and 0.0~4.6 log CFU/g, leaf, mL, hand or 100 ㎠,while Escherichia coli was not detected in all samples. In major pathogens, only Bacillus cereus were detected at levels of ≤ 1.5 log CFU/g, mL, hand or 100 ㎠, while Staphylococuus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, E. coli O157and Salmonella spp. were not detected in all samples. Heavy metal and pesticide residue as chemical hazards were detected at levels below the regulation limit, physical hazard factors, such as insects, pieces of metal and glasses, were also found in paprika farms. Proper management is needed to prevent biological hazards due to cross-contamination while physical and chemical hazards were appropriate GAP criteria.
