한우 종모우에 있어 정액 채취시 승가 조건(의빈우 혹은 의빈대)이 정액성상에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 의빈우 승가 종모우 21두, 의빈대승가 종모우 9두 등 보증 종모우 30두를 공시하여 연구하였다. 정액은 일 간격으로 채취하였으며 채취 당일 1시간 간격으로 총 2회 정액 채취하여 6개월간 정액성상을 조사하였다. 의빈대 승가 종모우가 의빈우 승가 종모우보다 1차 및 2차 정자농도에 있어 유의적으로 높아(p<0.05) 1차 및 2차 총 정자수에서도

본 연구는 숫소 개체별, 정자의 형태, 정자의 전처리 및 난자의 투명대부착과 미부착별로 현미조작에 의해 난자의 세포질내 단일정자를 주입했을 때 웅성전핵 형성율과 체외발생율을 조사하였다. 1. 숫소 개체별 정자를 이용하여 ICSI를 하였을 때 웅성전핵 형성율은 각각 73.9∼87.0%였고 체외발생율은 33.3∼60.9%를 나타냈다. 2. 신선 및 동결정자와 미부절단 정자와 두부, 미부손상 정자를 이용하여 ICSI를 하였을 때 웅성전핵 형성율은 각각 82.

This study was undertaken in an effort to select the sire bull in Hanwoo through in vitro fertilization of proven bull semen. It was used for in vitro fertilization that of the 20 proven bull semen with follicular oocytes derived from slaughterhouse ovaries of Hanwoo. The stage of maturation on the time course of bovine cumulus-enclosed oocytes incubated for 24 hours was found the highest(96.4%) than hose of other maturationi time. In vitro fertilization rate of bovine oocytes with proven bull sperm showed from 61.5 to 88.9%. Polyspermy of in vitro fertilized oocytes according to proven bulls were the highest KP 491(61.5%) nothing but KP 486, KP 491 and KP 497.

본 연구는 종모우의 선발방법으로 난포란을 이용하여 실험실내 정자의 수정능력을 직접 검정하여 평가코자 시도되었다. 즉 본 실험은 후대검정중에 있는 한우 후보종모우 15두의 동결융해정자의 수정능력을 평가하기 위하여 정액을 고장액(HIS)에 처리한 후 DM에서 6시간 그리고 소 난포액이 20% 첨가된 DM에서 4시간 전배양하여 수정능을 획득시켜 정자의 활력과 첨체 반응율을 조사하였고 전배양된 정자의 체내(토끼 난관) 또는 체외수정능력을 조사하기 위하여 FCS

This study was conducted to compare among bull, steer and heifer on growth performance, blood composition and carcass traits according to fattening phase in Hanwoo. 12 month of aged 4 bulls (339.8±18.5 kg), 4 steers (309.8±13.2 kg), and 3 heifers (290.0±16.7 kg) were allocated in the stalls with individual feeding system during 20 months. Average daily gain was not different among the treatment groups during early fattening phase, but higher in the bulls and lower in the heifers after mid-fattening phase (p<0.05). The difference of body size by animal groups appeared from 24 month of age, and wither height and body length of Hanwoo heifer were the smallest (p<0.05) among treatment group. But wither height was not difference among treatment groups at 32 month of age. At 12 month of age, concentrations of serum cholesterol, triglyceride, glucose and total protein were higher in the heifers compared to other groups, and serum GPT (Glutamic pyruvic transaminase) was the highest (p<0.05) in the bulls, and serum GOT (Glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase) was the highest (p<0.05) at late fattening phase in the bulls. Meat yield index was similar between the bulls and the heifers, and the lowest (p<0.05) in the steers. Marbling score was significantly higher (p<0.05) in the steers and the heifers than in the bulls, and meat quality was the best in the steers among treatment groups. The results of this experiment might be used as a basal data on difference between gender in revision of Korean feeding standard for Hanwoo.

Recently, sperm has been used as a vector to carry exogenous genes for the production of transgenic animals. However, the success in cattle is low, due to deficiencies in oocyte activation and sperm decondensation caused by high disulphide bond (S=S) content in mature sperm. This study was carried out to develop an effective method for producing transgenic animals with round spermatids (RS). Two methods of embryo production - electric fusion (EC) or intracyto-plasmic injection (IC) and three activation treatments were compared. RS were isolated from bull testes by Percoll density gradients (20, 35, 40, 45 and 90%). Fusion between ooplast and RS was performed with a single DC electric pulse (1.0 KV/cm, 45 sec) in 0.28 M mannitol solution supplemented with 100 M CaCl2 and 100 M MgCl. (중략)
