Background: Woori-Heukdon (KWH) is a Korean synthetic pig breed generated using Chookjin-Duroc (KCD), Chookjin-Chamdon (KCC), and their crossbreds. Currently, there is a severe lack of studies investigating the Korean breed populations including wild boars (KWB) throughout the genome. Objective: This study was performed to investigate the genetic characteristics of Korean pig populations at the genome-wide level. Methods: Using the SNP dataset derived from genotyped and downloaded datasets using the Illumina PorcineSNP60K BeadChip, we compared the genomes of 532 individuals derived from 23 pig breeds to assess the genetic diversity, inbreeding coefficient, genetic differentiation, and population structure. Results: KWB showed the lowest average expected heterozygosity (HE = 0.1904), while KWH showed the highest genetic diversity (HE = 0.02859) among Korean populations. We verified that the genetic composition of KWH, showing USD of 74.8% and KCC of 25.2% in ADMIXTURE analysis. In population structure analyses, KCC was consistently shown to be separated from other pig populations. In addition, we observed gene flow from Western pigs to a part of Chinese populations. Conclusion: This study showed that Korean native pigs, KCC have genetic differences in comparison with Chinese and Western pigs; despite some historical records and recent genetic studies, we could not find any clear evidence that KCC was significantly influenced by Chinese or Western breeds in this study. We also verified the theoretical genomic composition of KWH at the molecular level in structure analyses. To our knowledge, this is the first genomic study to investigate the genomic characteristics of KWH and KCC.

A three-dimensional, porous collagen/chitosan complex sponge was prepared to closely simulate basic extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes, collagen and glycosaminoglycan. The complex sponge was prepared by a lyophilization method and had the regular network with highly porous structure, suitable for cell adhesion and growth. The pores were well interconnected, and their distribution was fairly homogeneous. The complex sponge was crosslinked using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethyl aminopropyl) carbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) to increase its boilogical stability and enhance its mechanical properties. The crosslinking medium has a great effect on the inner structure of the sponge. The homogeneous, porous structure of the sponge was remarkably collapsed in an aqueous crosslinking medium. However, the morphology of the sponge remained almost intact in a water/ethanol mixture crosslinking milieu. Mechanical properties of the collagen/chitosan sponge were significantly enhanced by EDC-mediated crosslinking. The potential of the sponge as a scaffold for tissue engineering was investigated using a Chinese hamster ovary cell (CHO-K1) line.

용융염산화는 혼성폐기물과 유해폐기물을 효과적으로 산화 및 분해할 수 있는 소각대체기술중 하나이다. 본 연구에서는 직경이 0.079 m이고 높이가 0.653 m인 용융염산화 반응기에서 기체체류량 및 기-액 흐름특성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 액상으로 용융탄산나트륨을 기상으로 건조된 공기를 사용하였으며 기체유속(0.05-0.22 m/s)과 용융염온도(870-970℃) 변화가 기체체류량 및 기-액 흐름특성에 미치는 영향을 규명하였다. 기체체류량은 용융염 온도가 상승함에 따라 증가하였는데, 이는 용융염 온도의 증가로 인해 용융된 탄산나트륨의 점도와 표면장력이 감소하였기 때문이다. 실험에서 얻어진 기체체류량 데이터를 drift-flux 모델에 적용하여 용융염반응기 내의 흐름특성을 규명할 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 흐름영역에 따른 기체체류량을 정확하게 예측할 수 있었다. Molten salt oxidation is one of the most promising alternatives to incineration that can be used to efficiently destroy the organic components of mixed wastes and hazardous wastes. In this study, the gas holdup and gas-liquid flow characteristics are investigated in the molten salt oxidation reactor (0.076 m D×0.653 m H.). Effects of input air velocity (0.05-0.22m/s ) and molten salt temperature (870-970℃) on the gas holdup and flow characteristics have been studied. Molten carbonate as the liquid phase and air as the gas phase have been used in this study. The gas holdup increases with increasing molten salt temperature due to the decrease of viscosity and surface tension of molten carbonate. The experimentally obtained gas holdups in the molten salt reactor have been well described and characterized by means of drift-flux model. The gas holdups with variation of the flow regime have been well predicted.

Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC), an endogenous component of the L-carnitine family, is naturally occurring molecule synthesized from L-carnitine (LC) by carnitine acetyl transferase. ALC has been shown to improve the cognitive performance of patients suffering from dementia of the Alzheimer's type and proposed for treating Alzheimer's disease in pharmacological doses. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the bioequivalence of two ALC tablets, Nicetiler^TM (Dong-A pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) and Neurocetil^TM (Kyung-Dong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.), according to the guidelines of Korea Food and Drug Administration. Twenty six normal male volunteers, 22.80±2.76 year in age and 63.07 7.98㎏ in body weight, were divided into two groups and a randomized 2×2 cross-over study was employed. After one tablet containing 500㎎ of ALC was orally administered, blood was taken at predetermined time intervals and the concentrations of ALC in serum were determined using HPLC with fluorescence detector. Because of the presence of endogenous ALC, the calibration was performed using dialyzed serum. Pharmacokinetic parameters such as AUC_t, C_max and T_max were calculated and ANOVA was utilized for the statistical analysis of the parameters. The results showed that the differences in AUC_t, C_max and T_max between two tablets were 2.72%, -0.65% and -8.42%, respectively, when calculated against the Nicetile^TM tablet. The powers (1-β) for AUC_t and C_max were 94.87% and 87.17%, respectively. Minimum detectable differences (Δ) at α=0.05 and 1-β=0.8 were less than 20% (e.g., 15.58% and 19.16% AUC_t and C_max, respectively). The 90% confidence intervals were within ±20% (e.g., -11.84∼6.41 and -10.57∼11.88 for AUC_t and C_max, respectively). Two parameters met the criteria of KFDA for bioequivalence, indicating that Neurocetil^TM tablet is bioequivalent to Nicetile^TM tablet.

In the present, batch test was conducted to evaluate the neutralization and adsorption of heavy metals from wastewater using waste egg shells. Neutralization and removal rate of heavy metals were excellent in the increase of waste concrete amounts and a small size. It seemed that adsorption efficiencies of heavy metals were influenced by solubility. As a result on the experiments of Freundlich isotherm, the adsorption capacities(k) were Cr 3.11, Cu 2.61, Mn 3.02 and Pb 0.95, respectively and the adsorption intensities(1/n) were Cr 0.35, Cu 0.44, Mn 0.4 and Pb 0.41, respectively. In view of these results, it showed that wastes containing the similar compositions as waste egg shells could utilize the neutralization and adsorption of heavy metals in wastewater.

Light interception efficiency, parameters during ripening period, yield response to fertilization and optimum leaf area index and leaf area duration for maximum grain yield were compared between high yielding variety, Nampung with long culm and erect leaves, and Japonica variety, Seonam with short culm and erect leaves under six fertilization levels and two planting densities. 1. Light extinction coefficient was estimated at 0.56 in Seonam and 0.58 in Nampung, showing no difference between the two varieties. 2. Relative growth rate, net assimilation rate and crop growth rate during 30 day after heading were greater in Nampung than in Seonam.] 3. Sink capacity determined before heading showed no difference between the two varieties, but the yield was higher in Nampung than in Seonam. This suggests that Seonam is inferior to Nampung in photosynthetic and translocating efficiency during ripening period. 4. The optimum fertilization level for maximum grain yield ranged 20 to 24㎏N/10a in Nampung and 16 to 19kgN/10a with planting densities. 5. The optimum LAIs for maximum grain yield showed the range of 7.6 to 8.3 in Seonam and of 8.6 to over 10.2 in Nampung with year. These were greater than those reported previously for Tongil and Japonica Varieties. 6. The optimum LADs for maximum grain yield were estimated to be in the range of 176 to 180 day in Seonam and 245 to over 238 day in Nampung with year.

Abstract-In order to investigate pharmacological properties of New Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill(NSCH) and Wonbang Woohwangchungsimwon Pill (SCH), the effects of NSCH and SCH on cerebral ischemia and central nervous system were compared. Cerebral ischemia insult was performed using unilateral carotid artery occlusion in mongolian gerbils. The histological observations showed preventive effects of NSCH and SCH treatments with ischemia-induced brain damage. The ATP in brain tissue was decreased in vehicle-treated ischemic gerbils. This decrease was prevented by SCH treatment. In contrast to what was seen with ATP, lipid peroxide were elevated in vehicle-treated ischemic gerbils. This elevation was inhibited by NSCH and SCH treatments. While NSCH and SCH had no effects on the hexobarbital-induced sleeping time, they prevented the seizures induced by eletric shock and strychnine. NSCH and SCH showed sedative effect in rotarod and spontaneous activity test. Furthermore, NSCH and SCH showed anti-stress effect. Our findings suggest that the pharmacological profiles of NSCH on cerebral ischemia and central nervous system are similar to those of SCH.
