BALB/c mice were vaccinated with Brucella (B.) abortus recombinant protein L27 (50S ribosomal protein L27) cloned into a pMal vector system. L27 was induced, purified and injected intraperitoneally (IP). Mice were vaccinated on 0-, 15- and 35-day. Serum cytokines were evaluated on 36- and 49-day from first vaccination. Mice were intraperitoneally infected with 5×104 CFU of virulent B. abortus 544 on day-50 and sacrificed after two weeks from infection. Bacterial burden from the spleen was quantified and showed a 0.7- and 0.9-log reduction in vaccinated mice in comparison to PBS and MBP (maltose binding protein) groups respectively. Cytokines in the serum demonstrated increased interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and other pro-inflammatory cytokines such as macrophage chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and interleukin 6 (IL-6). On the other hand, interleukin 10 (IL-10) was attenuated in the sera of vaccinated mice. This cytokine profile is indicative of a cell-mediated type of immune response which is favorable for the eradication of intracellular infections. The current study showed the potential of another B. abortus ribosomal protein in inducing protective immunity against B. abortus infection.

충북의 한지형 마늘 재배지에서 파총채벌레와 파좀나방의 발생양상과 약제검정을 수행하였다. 파총채벌레 발생양상은 3월 중순에 발생하기 시작하여 5월 중하순경 부터 밀도가 급격히 증가하였다. 파좀나방은 3월 중하순에 발생이 시작되어 수확기인 6월 중순까지 2화기 발생하였다. 9종의 살충제를 이용하여 파총채벌레와 파좀나방의 약제감수성을 조사하였다. 실내 검정 결과 파총채벌레에 대하여 clothianidin SC, chlorfenapyr EC, dimethoate EC, imidacloprid WP, cyantraniliprole + thiamethoxam WG가 100%의 살충효과를 보였다. 파좀나방에 대해서는 cyantraniliprole EC, pyridalyl EW, spinetoram SG, abamectin + chlorantraniliprole SC가 100%의 살충효과를 보였다. 2종 해충에 대하여 실내검정에서 살충효과가 높았던 약제 각각 5, 4종을 대상으로 포장검정을 수행한 결과 모든 약제에서 처리 3일차에서 90% 이상의 방제효과를 나타내었다.

구름과 에어로졸의 상호 작용은 기후 시스템에서 중요한 강제력 메커니즘 중 하나로 알려져 있지만, 에어로졸 변화가 구름의 양과 수명에 미치는 영향에 대해서는 서로 일치하지 않는 연구결과를 보이고 있다. 더구나 구름과 강수에 대한 에어로졸 효과는 기상요인으로부터 발생하는 효과와 쉽게 분리되지 않는다. 이 논문에서는 구름두께(H), 액체수함량(Liquid water path, LWP)과 같은 구름 거시물리 인자들이 강수에 미치는 영향을 최소화한 상태에서, 에어로졸 농도 변화가 강수 변화에 미치는 영향을 기술하는, 강수민감도(So)에 대한 연구를 살펴보았다. 구름 두께가 얇거나 구름이 포함하고 있는 액체 수함량이 작을 경우 에어로졸 농도가 증가하여도 강수율에는 변화가 없었다. 그러나 구름 두께나 액체수함량이 중간 정도 인 경우에는 에어로졸 농도가 증가할수록 강수량이 감소한다. 이것은 대기 중에 존재하는 에어로졸이 구름씨앗으로 작용하여 수많은 작은 크기의 구름입자를 생성하여, 강수로 이어지는 충돌·병합과정을 억제하기 때문이다. 구름두께나 액체수함량이 큰 경우에는 대기 중에 이미 충분한 수분이 존재하여, LWP 또는 H가 증가할수록 강수민감도는 감소한다. 이러한 LWP 또는 H 영역에 따른 강수민감도 변화특성은 구름 속에서 작용하는 우세한 구름물리 과정에 따라 다르게 나타난다.

Quarantine Pest Research Facility (QPRF) had been built in Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency for study on exotic pests at 2018. This facility was constructed to prevent effective containment for preventing accidental escape of insects. We tested a developmental and susceptibility of pesticides (Fluxametamide, FLX and Hydramethylnon, HMT) on beet armyworm, Spodoptera exigua for testing containment level of QPRF. S. exigua showed 22.5 days at 28±1℃ and 26.5 days at 25±1℃ with 60±5% RH for entire life cycle. LC50 of FLX and HMT to 5th instar larvae for 24h revealed as lower than 1ppm and 100ppm, respectively. Also, there is no release of adults in QPRF and confirmed by sex pheromone trap during winter season.

Equine reproductive failures for many different reasons are the main contributors to economic losses in the horse industry. This paper describes major bacterial agents isolated from thoroughbred mares that had reproductive failures in the previous year as well as the antimicrobial susceptibility of these bacterial isolates. A total of 146 vaginal and uterine swab samples were submitted to Jeju Self-Governing Veterinary Research Institute by equine veterinarians from 2011 to 2015. Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus were the most frequently encountered bacteria in 29 samples (48.3%). Other identified species included 21 samples (35%) with Escherichia coli, six samples (10%) with Klebsiella pneumoniae, and four samples (6.7%) with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. All Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus isolates were sensitive to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefazolin, cefuroxime, and florfenicol, while all were resistant to tetracycline and kanamycin. All E. coli were sensitive to enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim, and most were susceptible to cefazolin, amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefuroxime, florfenicol, and gentamicin. All K. pneumoniae isolates were sensitive to amoxicillin-clavulanic acid, cefazolin, cefuroxime, florfenicol, and ciprofloxacin, while all were resistant to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim. P. aeruginosa exhibited sensitivity to quinolones and aminoglycosides, particularly gentamicin, while all were resistant to cefazolin and cefuroxime.

Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) may cause diarrhea and enterotoxemia in adult and young livestock, leading to problems in the production and management of farms. Four hundred fecal samples were collected from 25 goat farms located in Gyeongsangbuk-do Province in the Republic of Korea. Sixteen C. perfringens strains were isolates from fecal samples, and the isolates were identified as type A (n=11) and type D (n=5). Additionally, α- and ε-toxin genes were detected in 16 and 5 strains by PCR, respectively, and the enterotoxin gene was presented in 2 strains. The antibiotic susceptibility test was performed using the disk diffusion method and E-test method. In the disk diffusion method, ampicillin (n=16) and chloramphenicol (n=15) were highly susceptible to 16 C. perfringens isolates. In the E-test method, ampicillin, amoxicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and meropenem were susceptible to more than 14 of 16 C. perfringens isolates. This study indicates that administration of antibiotics such as ampicillin, amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and meropenem can prevent and treat C. perfringens infections in goats.

Domestic resistant S. oryzae showed 4 to 56 times higher resistance rate than susceptible insects.

목적 : Coagulase-negative Staphylococci 분리 균주에 대한 quinolone 계열 및 그람양성균에 효과적인 vancomycin과 erythromycin 항생제 감수성 정도를 알아보고 DNA gyrase 유전자를 분석하고자 한다. 방법 : 세균성 각막염이 의심되는 사람의 각막에서 검출한 Coagulase-negative Staphylococci 6 균주를 대상으로 ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, vancomycin, erythromycin 항생제 감수성을 실시한 후 각 균주들의 genomic DNA를 추출하여 PCR 증폭한 후 gyraseA 유전자의 DNA를 분석하였다. 결과 : 항생제 감수성 검사에서 S. epidermidis (SE-2, SE-3), S. hominis (SH-1) 그리고 S. saprophyticus (SS-1) 균주에서는 ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, vancomycin 감수성, erythromycin 내성으로 나타났으며, 나머지 균주에서는 모두 감수성으로 나타났다. gyraseA 유전자 분석에서는 S. epidermidis (SE-1) 균주에서 Met75→Thr, Met93→Val 으로 아미노산 이중 mutation이 관찰되었으며, S. warneri (SW-1)와 S. saprophyticus (SS-1) 균주에서는 다수의 silent mutation이 관찰되었다. 결론 : Coagulase-negative Staphylococci 분리균주에서 erythromycin 항생제의 내성이 있다는 것을 확인 할 수 있었으며, gyraseA 유전자 분석결과 아미노산 이중 mutation 및 silent mutation이 관찰되었다. 따라서 지금은 내성이 아니지만 silent mutation이 언제든지 내성을 일으킬 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

시판되고 있는 51종(단제 21종과 합제 30종)의 살충제를 이용한 꽃노랑총채벌레와 대만총채벌레 성충에 대한 약제 감수성을 검토한 결과 90% 이상의 살충률을 보인 약제 15종을 선발하였으며, 시판되고 있는 합제에서 많은 유효성분들이 오남용되고 있다고 보여진다. 2종의 총채벌레에 대한 살충제 감수성을 비교한 결과 모든 약제에 대하여 대만총채벌레가 꽃노랑총채벌레에 비해 높은 감수성을 보이기 때문에 꽃노랑총채벌 레에 효과 있는 약제로 동시방제가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 꽃노랑총채벌레를 대상으로 선발된 15종의 약제를 이용하여 약효발현속도(LT50과 LT95), 침투이행성, 잔효성을 비교하였다. 약효 발현속도를 LT95 (hour)값으로 비교했을 때, chlorpyrifos WP, chlorpyrifos + diflubenzuron WP가 2시간 이내로 가장 빨랐고, spinetoram WG은 62.3시간으로 가장 느렸다. Chlorfenapyr SC에서 뿌리와 엽면을 통한 침투이행 효과가 나타났고, spinetoram WG에서 엽면을 통한 침투이행 효과만이 나타났다. 약제 잔효성 실험에서 chlorfenapyr SC는 14일, benfuracarb WG 와 chlorpyrifos WP는 3일까지 효과가 지속되었다. 꽃노랑총채벌레 야외집단(화훼재배지와 과채류재배지)간의 감수성 비교에서는 화훼재배지에서 채집된 집단이 더 낮은 약제 감수성을 보였다.

Following a service failure, dissatisfied customers increasingly turn to brands’ social media outlets (e.g., Facebook brand page) to share their complaint with the involved company and other consumers. The majority of these other consumers (i.e., ‘recovery bystanders’) chooses to remain passive by simply observing the negative comment and the company’s attempt to restore the customer-brand relationship in public by means of ‘webcare’ (i.e., marketers’ communicative responses to online complaints (MIW); van Noort & Willemsen, 2011). For these observers the online service recovery process conveys valuable information for making purchase decisions. On the other hand, some consumers choose to become active, for instance, by making comments on the complaint or the company’s response and/or by ‘liking’ a comment (i.e., positive (brand-supportive) and negative (brand-unsupportive) ‘interactive virtual presence’ (IVP)). Given this interactive environment, recovery bystanders are exposed to strong social influence. Although recent research made some progress (e.g., Weitzl & Hutzinger, 2017), knowledge about the impact of this complex, social environment on recovery bystanders’ brand-related reactions remains scarce. In this study, we suggest that recovery bystanders’ level of susceptibility to normative influence (SNI) moderates the effect of different forms of webcare responses – accompanied by positive/negative IVP – on brand image. In 3 experiments (n = 1,387 consumers) we systematically manipulate response sources (i.e. ‘advocate-initiated webcare’ (AIW) vs. ‘marketer-initiated webcare’ (MIW)) and response types (study 1); interactive virtual presence via comments (positive IVP and negative IVP) (study 2) and Facebook ‘likes’ (positive IVP) (study 3). In explaining bystanders’ post-recovery evaluation of brand image we show that: Low-SNI bystanders, receiving AIW, as compared to MIW, show – regardless of webcare’s content – a significant increase. High-SNI bystanders, receiving AIW in the form of ‘vouching’ (i.e. an advocate counters a complaint with a ‘brand love story’) has the most pronounced effect – adding positive IVP (with additional, positive brand comments) even leads to a further improvement. However, adding negative IVP (with unfavorable brand comments) to marketer’s vouching reduced high-SNI bystanders’ image evaluation. Finally, when high-SNI bystanders receive advocate’s vouching and highly positive IVP (i.e., many ‘likes’), brand image evaluations significantly increase. This research draws scholars’ and practitioners’ attention to the opportunities – and perils – of cocreated service recoveries via social media.

Purpose：Recently, studies have been conducted to improve the signal intensities by increasing the filling factor, which is the volume ratio of the subject in the coil using a compensating material that does not appear as a magnetic resonance signal. Previous studies note that the magnetic susceptibility difference between the air and the compensation material should be minimized. Therefore, in this study, we tried to investigate and compare the materials that can reduce the susceptibility differences most effectively among various materials similar to human tissue density. Materials and Methods：The customized phantom was constructed using 7 different compound(borax powder, saline solution, sulfur powder, silicon power, graphite powder, wheat flour and silicon pad). A Bland-Altman plot was used to measure the magnetic susceptibility difference between the air and the phantom compound. Image acquisition was performed using a 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging system (Skyra, Siemens, Germany) and a 15-channel head coil. Validation of a quantitative susceptibility mapping acquisitionw were carried out on T2 and T2* apping using Matlab (Ver.7.10, Mathworks, USA) and Image J (Ver.1.47v, NIH, USA) program. Results：The mean values of graphite (upper: -88.4, center: -100.5, lower: -101.6) and silicone (upper: -74.0, center: -37.1, lower: -96.6) were appeared negative which meant the susceptibility differences were higher than air. In contrast, wheat flour(Upper: 9.0, center: 0.3, lower: 11.3), silicon pad (upper: 13.9, center: -0.7, lower: 13.5), saline (upper: 11.9 , center: 1.0, lower: 16.3), borax (upper: 19.1, center: 1.2, lower: 13.6)and sulfur (upper: 19.0, center: 1.1, lower: 13.9)showed positive value which meant lower susceptibility difference compared to air. As a compensating material to overcome difference in susceptibility uniform performance and less deviation were observed in the compounds other than the graphite and silicon regardless of their position. Conclusion：The magnetic susceptibility is the intrinsic physical quantity of the elements in the periodic table such as mass and spin. In other words, when an element is exposed to an external magnetic field, it is a measure of how much the element is magnetized. Therefore, in selection of the magnetic susceptibility compensating material, it is important to select one the with the small magnetic susceptibility difference compared to air. In this study, the differences of susceptibility among wheat flour, silicon pad, physiological saline, borax and sulfur were observed to be appropriate. Increasing the filling factor with magnetic susceptibility compensating materials proposed in this study can improve the signal intensities.

목 적：고자장(3.0T) MRI에서 교정 후 잔존하는 강자성체 인공물에 대해 SEMAC 기법의 단계별 적용을 통하여 T1, T2 검사 시퀀스의 축상면 인공물의 장･단축 길이 감소 정도와 신호대 잡음비 측정을 통하여 인공물 감소를 위한 최적의 단계를 알아보고 임상에서 추가적인 검사 방법으로 적용하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법：3.0T MRI (MAGNETOM Skyra, Siemens, Munich, Germany)를 사용하여 자체 제작된 손목 (Wrist and hand) 팬텀 속에 치료용 보루스와 치과용 stainless steel wire (18 × 25 mm)를 삽입하여 고정하였다. 고신호 강도를 구현하기 위해서 두･부 전용 코일(64 channel)을 사용하여 검사를 진행하였 으며, 연구에 사용한 펄스 시퀀스는 T1 TSE, T2 TSE에 SEMAC 기법을 적용하였고, 추가적인 (additional) 위상 부호화 단계(phase encoding steps, PES)를 정성적(6-15), 정량적(6-10)까지 변화 시켜 10회 반복 측정하여 실험하였다. 정량적 평가는 영상 왜곡이 가장 심하게 일어난 부위(영상 18번)에 서 좌･우측으로 나누고 장･단축의 길이를 계측하였고, 인공물 영향이 없는 3곳을 좌･우측 각각 지정하여 신호대 잡음비(signal to noise ratio, SNR)를 계측하였다. 정성적 평가는 이미지의 질을 내･외부 평가 자 각각 3명이 영상 평가 기준에 맞춰 5점 척도화하여 평가하였다. 결 과：T2 SEMAC의 인공물에 대한 정량적 분석 결과는 PES가 6→7, 7→8, 8→9, 9→10 변화할 때 RT: 장축 길이는 0.11%, 0.02%, 0.10%, 0.02%로 감소, 단축 길이는 0.19%, 0.04%, 0.22%, 0.07%로 감 소하였다.

The susceptibility of Dermanyssus gallinae adults, collected from poultry farms in 5 regions, to 11 acaricides was investigated. When bifenthrin and formic acid with pyridaben were diluted 100 times, bifenthrin showed 100% acaricidal activity; however, formic acid with pyridaben showed less than 20% acaricidal activity for poultry farms in 3 regions (Gyeongju, Chilgok, and Geumsan) except Yeoncheon and Anseong. Clothianidin, thiamethoxam, fenitrothion, and formic acid with pyridaben showed differences in acaricidal activity among regions. Therefore, farmers should concentrate during the selection of these acaricides. However, carbaryl, cartap hydrochloride, dichlorvos, and bifenthrin showed high activity against D. gallinae collected from poultry farms in five regions. To control D. gallinae effectively, the alternation of acaricides is necessary, and indiscriminate pesticide use should be avoided. Therefore, this study can serve as a basis for controlling D. gallinae.

The present study evaluated the susceptibility of field populations of Plutella xylostella and Spodoptera exigua larvae to four diamide insecticides—chlorantraniliprole, cyantraniliprole, cyclaniliprole, and flubendiamide. All the four diamide insecticides induced 100% mortality in the populations from Seongju (SJ) and Geochang (GC) when treated at a concentration recommended for P. xylostella. However, a very low insecticidal activity was observed in the population from Pyeongchang (PC) with 42.3% 3 d after treatment with chlorantraniliprole. Further, the populations of S. exigua from Cheongju (CJ), Jindo (JD), and Yeonggwang (YG) were not completely controlled by the 4 diamide insecticides. A comparison of susceptibility of S. exigua larvae to chlorantraniliprole between 2014 and 2017 showed that chlorantraniliprole induced 100% mortality in all populations in 2014, whereas a very low insecticidal activity was observed among the populations in 2017. This study can serve as a basis to control pests effectively using diamide insecticides.

Carbonyl sulfide is a chemical that is registered as a crop protection product in Australia due to microorganisms such as soil, plant roots, branches, fertilizers and compost. In order to develop new fumigants for domestic use, the susceptibility of Carbonyl sulfide fumigants to two agricultural pests was evaluated. The susceptibility of peach aphid and spotted mite, which is an agricultural pest, was evaluated. After 5 hours of treatment (10, 20, 40, 60, and 80 mg / L) . As a result, peach aphid larvae showed a high mortality rate of 97.6% at 10 mg / L and 100% at 20 mg / L or more. Larvae were found to have a rate of 95.8% at 80 mg / L. The insect mortality rate was 91.8% at 60 mg / L and 94.1% at 80 mg / L.

The susceptibility of the Cigarette beetle, which are pests in tobacco, to methyl bromide and phosphine fumigants was evaluated. Five concentrations of each methyl bromide were selected for all stages and treated for 4 hours. As a result, 100% larvae were observed in eggs CT 51.20, late larva CT 73.61, pupa CT 71.87 and adult 52.87 mg h / L, respectively. The LCT50 values for methyl bromide were 13.896 for eggs, 36.038 for late larvae, 25.172 and 21.758 mg / l, respectively. The phosphine treatment was carried out for 5 to 6 concentrations (0.025, 0.051, 0.099, 0.501, 0.999 and 1.500 mg / L) for 20 hours. As a result, egg and late larvae showed 100% larvae at CT 5.137 and 6.435 mg h / L, respectively, and 61.9% and 98.9% of larvae and adult larvae were similar to each other. Pupae showed 86.4% larvae at CT 10.520 and 100% larvae at over 13.777 mg / h of CT. The LCT50 values for phosphine were 0.317 for eggs, 0.649 for late larvae, 3.748 for pupa and 0.703 mg / l for adults.

The susceptibility of the Frankliniella occidentalis and Frankliniella intonsa was evaluated using 46 commercial insecticides. There were 10 kinds of insecticides as benfuracarb, chlorfenapyr, spinetoram, spinosad, abamectin + chlorfenapyr, abamectin + emamectin benzoate, chlorfenapyr + clothianidin, chlorfenapyr + imidacloprid, clothianidin + spinetoram and dinotefuran + spinetoram, which showed more than 90% mortality against both thrips, F. occidentalis and F. intonsa. Since the F. intonsa is more susceptible than F. occidentalis, it is considered that both thrips can be controlled by insecticides that show insecticidal activity on the F. occidentalis. The effect by the elapsed time after treatment of 10 kinds of insecticides was analyzed as LT50 and LT95 values. Benfuracarb was the fastest in 4.3 h (LT50) and 14 h (LT95), and spinetoram showed the most late time at 13.5 h (LT50) and 62.3 h (LT95), respectively.
