Rearing media were selected for the production of sterile larvae of greenbottle blowfly, Phaenicia (=Lucilia) sericata (Meigen) which is widely used in maggot therapy. Eight media available in the market were used in this study. Egg hatchability was not different among the media. Survivorship of the larvae was higher in blood agar (BA), sabouraud dextrose agar, and brucella blood agar than the others. A higher content (20~40%) of sheep blood in BA and chocolate agar increased the survivorship of larvae. The eggs and the early 3rd larvae could be stored for 12 days at 8℃ and for 15 days at 6℃ without decrease in hatchability and larval survivorship, respectively.

겨울철 사육조건이 양식산 뱀장어 Anguilla japonica의 인위적인 성성숙 유도 및 번식에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 봄철 salmon pituitary extracts(SPE)을 이용하여 성성숙 유도 예정인 양식산 암컷 뱀장어 친어를 8주의 겨울철 사육기간 동안, 4개의 사육환경(해수저온, ; 해수고온, ; 담수저온, ; 담수고온, )에 각각 순치하여 사육하였다. 그 후 각각의 실험구의 뱀장어를 해수 로 이동하여 SPE를 매주 1회 8주 동안

The experiment was conducted to determine effect of the mixed herbal medicine for the substitution of antibiotics on the performance of laying hens. Day old hyline 1,500 layer chicks were randomly assigned to 4 treatments. Control were 600 chicks and there were three treatments of each 300 chicks. The 4 treatments were as follows: the mixed herbal medicine 0.1%(T-1), 0.3%(T-2) and 0.5%(T-3) after removed antibiotics on commercial feed and commercial feed(control) from 5th week to 13th week, each treatment was replicated 3 times and from 14th week to 18th week. Each 100 hens of the mixed herbal medicine 0.1%(CT-1), 0.3%(CT-2) and 0.5%(CT-3) were moved to cage. Body weight were measured on 4th, 8th, 13th week and feed intake, mortality were measured on every weeks. Body weight at fourth week, all treatments tended to be higher than control and T-3 statistically was highest(p<0.01). On 8th week, also treatments statistically high and T-1 was highest(p<0.01). But 12th week, there was not significantly different among treatments. Therefore it will be possible that the mixed herbal medicine substitute for antibiotics after vaccination. Mortality was not different between treatment and control overall rearing period. Early laying period(19～41wk), T-2 showed highest feed intake(107.1g) among treatments, later laying period(42～77wk), T-1 showed highest feed intake(134.3g) and was not any different among each treatments.
