풍하중에 취약하며, 모니터링에 다양한 모드가 고려되어야하는 초고층 빌딩에서 최적 센서의 위치 및 최적 개수를 결정하는 문제는 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 고층빌딩의 모니터링을 위한 센서의 최적 개수 및 최적 위치의 결정 방법에 대해 제안한다. Kammer에 의해 제안된 유효영향법(Effective Influence Method)을 이용하여 특정 수의 센서가 설치될 최적의 위치를 결정하며, 추정 모드형상의 정확도에 관한 모니터링 목표 수준을 달성할 수 있는 최소의 센서수를 결정한다. 제안된 알고리즘의 사례연구로 25층의 건 물모형인 켄틸레버 구조물을 선정하여 수치해석을 수행하였다. 해석 결과 센서의 최적 위치 및 최적 개수, 계측 가능한 모드는 합리적으로 결정되는 것을 확인하였다.

In previous studies, we reported that sow which was transferred OPS-freezing embryos not able to deliver a piglet (Kim et al, 2004). This study was conducted to investigate a possibility of gilt as recipients which produce piglets after transfer of OPS-freezing embryos. All transferred embryos were prepared by in vitro production (IVP) system. In vitro culture (IVC) medium used glucose-free NCSU23 supplemented with 5mM sodium pyruvate, 0.5 mM sodium lactate and 4 mg/ml bovine serum albumin for 2 days at . From day 3 of IVC, 10% fetal bovine serum albumin was added to the culture medium. In preparing of freezing embryos, embryos were treated with 7.5 cytochalasin-B for 30 min and centrifuged at for 13 min. And then, embryos were exposed sequentially to an ethylene glycol (EG) solution, aspirated into open pulled straw (OPS), and plunged or thawed into the liquid nitrogen. In embryo transfer (ET), we used two kinds of type (surgical method vs. non-surgical method). In surgical method of embryo transfer, embryo were transferred in both uterine horn of two recipient gilts by plastic straw. Non-surgical method which is like artificial insemination was performed on three gilts. Each 140 frozen embryos were transferred to two gilts and 40 fresh embryos to one gilt. Pregnancy establishment was shown one recipient at 45 days after ET. However, the one recipient was also aborted at 58 days after ET. These results suggest that gilts can be considered as a candidate of recipients for OPS-freezing embryo transfer.

본 연구는 Open Pulled Straw(OPS)방법에 의해 동결-융해한 돼지 수정란의 체외 생존 능력을 검토하기 위하여 수행되었다. 미성숙 난자의 체외 성숙을 위하여, 돼지 난소는 도축장에서 회수하였으며, 난구세포로 쌓여있는 난자는 직경 의 난포로부터 난포액과 함께 흡입에 의하여 회수하였다. 회수된 미성숙 난자의 체외 성숙을 위하여 5 mM hypotaurine, 0.57 mM cysteine, 10% 난포액, 10 IU/ml PMSG 및 10 IU

본 연구는 마우스의 성숙 난자와 수정란의 유리화 동결을 위한 CPS, 기존 straw 및 OPS 방법의 효과에 대하여 비교하였다. 마우스 난자의 유리화 동결-응해 후 형태학적인 생존율을 조사한 결과, CPS (75%)와 기존 straw(72%)법이 OPS(68%)법에 비해 유의적으로 높은 생존율을 나타내었다(p<0.05). 과배란 처리 후 채란한 2-세포기 마우스 수정란을 유리화 동결-응해하여 일간 배양한 다음 수정란의 배 발달 상태를 비교한 결과, 동

본 연구는 OPS 기법에 의한 돼지 수정란의 동결-융해 시 수정란의 발달 단계와 superoxide dismutase (SOD)가 수정란의 생존능력에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 돼지 체외수정 배반포는 OPS방법에 의해 동결 후 융해하여 0~10unitsml의 SOD 존재 하에 48시간 체외배양하였다. 동결-융해 후 형태학적으로 정상적인 수정란의 비율은 초기, 중기 및 확장배반포간에 유의적인 차이는 인정되지 않았다(30.8~38.6%). 그러나 발육단계가 높을수록 형태적으로 정상인 수정란의 비율이 높은 경향을 나타냈다. 수정란의 융해 후 48시간 추가 배양했을 때, 발육이 진행된 수정란은 후기배반포기에 동결한 수정란이 38.7%로 유의적으로 높았으며(P<0.05), 1 unit/ml의 SOD를 첨가한 경우 비교적 높은 생존율을 나타내었다. 본 연구의 결과로부터, 수정란의 OPS방법에 의한 동결-융해 후 생존성의 향상을 위해서는 후기배반포기 단계에 동결하는 것이 유리하며, SOD의 첨가는 수정란의 손상을 어느 정도 방지할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

This study evaluated the efficiency and compared with different materials of loading vessels for vitrification-plastic/glass, copper grid and nylon. The loading method, vitrification, cryop-reservation and warming method of the oocytes were examined. The loading samples prepared in manual or company-made and sterilized, loaded the COCs selected on each samples and cultured for maturation during 40 hours, and then exposed sequentially to ethylene glycol solution. Thawing method was reversely treated and exposed for warmed oocytes. After oocytes were thawed, fertilized and cultured in vitro for 3-4 hours, rates of development and morphological appearance were examined. The results were as summarized: ㆍOPS from company-made or hand-made of the hematocrit micropipettes, NLS from fishing line and EMG from company-made for EM were used for loading oocytes, respectively. ㆍThe efficiency of freezing method and loading convenience were orderly higher in OPS, NLS and EMG. The optimal capacity per vessel was orderly lowered in NLS, EMG and OPS, respectively. ㆍAfter oocytes were warmed, the recovery rate, morphology and rate of development were orderly higher in OPS, NLS and EMG, respectively. ㆍIn conclusion, OPS has the advantages of achieving a little more survival and preserving results than other two loading methods.

Human embryonic stem (hES) cell lines have been derived from human blastocysts and are expected to have far-reaching applications in regenerative medicine. The objective of this study is to improve freezing method with less cryo-injuries and best survival rates in hES cells by comparing various vitrification conditions. For the vitrifications, ES cells are exposed to the 4 different cryoprotectants, ethylene glycol (EG), 1,2-propanediol (PROH), EG with dime-thylsulfoxide (DMSO) and EG with PROH. We compared to types of vehicles, such as open pulled straw (OPS) or electron microscopic cooper grids (EM grids). Thawed hES cells were dipped into sequentially holding media with 0.2 M sucrose for 1 min, 0.1 M sucrose for 5 min and holding media for 5 min twice and plated onto a fresh feeder layer. Survival rates of vitrified hES cells were assessed by counting of undifferentiated colonies. It shows high survival rates of hES cells frozen with EG and DMSO (60.8％), or EG and PROH(65.8％) on EM grids better than those of OPS, compared to those frozen with EG alone (2.4％) or PROH alone (0％) alone. The hES cells vitrified with EM grid showed relatively constant colony forming efficiency and survival rates, compared to those of unverified hES cells. The vitrified hES cells retained the normal morphology, alkaline phosphates activity, and the expression of SSEA-3 and 4. Through RT-PCR analysis showed Oct-4 gene expression was down-regulated and embryonic germ layer markers were up-regulated in the vitrified hES cells during spontaneous differentiation. These results show that vitrification method by using EM grid supplemented with EG and PROH in hES cells may be most efficient at present to minimize cyto-toxicity and cellular damage derived by ice crystal formation and furthermore may be employed for clinical application.

The advantages of the OPS techniques(Vajta G et al, Mol Reprod Dev 51: 53-58,1998) give 1) high survival rates of various types of eggs, 2) quick and simple process, 3) inexpensive equipment and reduced chilling injury. The efficiency of IVM/IVF technique in the porcine species is relatively lower than that obtained in other species such as ruminants. Two experiments were designed to investigate the effects of in-vitro fertilization of porcine oocytes matures using different OPS protocol for chilling and warming of vitrification. Porcine oocytes from ovaries collected at abattoir were matured for 44 hours in TCM199 Earle's salt supplemental with pyruvate, pff, L-cysteine, hormones and gentamycin. Oocytes were denuded and fertilized with frozen boar semen by common method. Porcine embryos produced routinely by in-vitro culture system of NCSU23 medium. The vitrification and the warming were conducted by OPS method with the glass micropipette instead of straw vessels and modified the protocol of G.Vajta(1999). In Exp 1, Chilling/Warming:Holding Medium(HM)+EG+DMSO/HM +sucrose Medium(SM) at 39 warm stage. In Exp 2, : PBS+CS+EG+Ficoll+ Trehalose/PBS+Trehalose at 25 stage. Filling, freezing, packing, thawing out and further culturing were performed to follow the basic protocol of G Vajta. During IVM-lVC and post-warming, fertilization parameter and developmental potential were compared to and statistically analysed. It was not significantly different from Exp 1 and Exp 2 but 25 of stage was slightly higher on the morula/blastocyst forming rate and better atmosphere for worker than that at 39 stage.
