본 연구의 목적은 이산화게르마늄을 함유한 게르마늄 용질액을 자돈에 급여하였을 때 성장 및 혈액학적 변화에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 3원 교잡종 자돈 60두 (평균체중 11.22±0.10㎏)를 공시하였다. 시험설계는 옥수수-대두박 위주의 대조구(CON)와, 대조구 사료내 게르마늄 용질액을 0.5 ppm 첨가한 구(GC0.5) 및 대조구 사료내 게르마늄 용질액을 1.0 ppm 첨가한 구(GC1.0)로 3개 처리를 하였다. 0-10일간 사양시험기간동안, 일당증체량에 있어서 GC0.5 처리구가 약간 높게 평가되었다(quadratic effect, P<0.02). 그러나 전체 시험기간동안, 일당증체량, 일당사료섭취량 및 사료효율에 있어서 처리구간에 유의적인 차이는 보이지 않았다. 영양소 소화율에 있어서는 GC0.5 처리구가 조회분(linear effect, P<0.01; quadratic effect, P<0.04), 칼슘(linear effect, P<0.01; quadratic effect, P<0.01), 인 (linear effect, P<0.02; quadratic effect, P<0.04) 소화율이 유의적으로 높게 평가되었다. 혈액내 neutrophil 농도에 있어서는 게르마늄 용질액의 첨가 수준이 증가함에 따라 유의적으로 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다(quadratic effect, P<0.02). 결론적으로, 자돈 사료내 게르마늄 용질액의 급여가 성장 및 혈액학적 수치에는 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 사료된다. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary germanium colloid on the growth performance and hematological values in nursery pigs. Sixty pigs (11.22(0.10 ㎏ average initial body weight) were used in a 20 d growth assay. Dietary treatments included 1) CON (basal diet), 2) GC0.5 (basal diet+0.5 ppm germanium colloid) and 3) GC1.0 (basal diet+1.0 ppm germanium colloid). For d 0 to 10, pigs fed GC0.5 diet grew faster than pigs fed CON and GC1.0 diets (Quadratic effect, P<0.02). However, through the entire experimental period, no statistical differences were found for aver-age daily gain, average daily feed intake and gain/feed. Apparent digestibilities of crude ash (Linear effect, P<0.01; Quadratic effect, P<0.04), calcium (Linear effect, P<0.01; Quadratic effect, P<0.01) and phosphorus (Linear effect, P<0.02; Quadratic effect, P<0.04) in pigs fed GC0.5 diet were greater than for pigs fed CON and GC1.0. Neutrophil concentration in blood increased as the concentration of germanium colloid in the diets was increased with significant difference (Quadratic effect, P<0.02). In conclusion, growth performance and hematological values were not influenced by dietary germanium colloid.

Background/Aims: Accumulating evidence indicates that L-carnitine (LC) protects against multiorgan damage through its antioxidant properties and preservation of the mitochondria. Little information is available about the effects of LC on renal fibrosis. This study examined whether LC treatment would provide renoprotection in a rat model of unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and in vitro. Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats that underwent UUO were treated daily with LC for 7 or 14 days. The influence of LC on renal injury caused by UUO was evaluated by histopathology, and analysis of gene expression, oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, programmed cell death, and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/ AKT/forkhead box protein O 1a (FoxO1a) signaling. In addition, H₂O₂-exposed human kidney cells (HK-2) were treated with LC. Results: LC treatment inhibited expression of proinflammatory and profibrotic cytokines, and was followed by a significant attenuation of tubulointerstitial inflammation and fibrosis. The increased oxidative stress caused by UUO was associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and excessive apoptosis and autophagy via PI3K/AKT/FoxO1a-dependent signaling, and this was abrogated by administration of LC. In H₂O₂-exposed HK-2 cells, LC decreased intracellular production of reactive oxygen species, and suppressed expression of profibrotic cytokines and reduced the number of apoptotic cells. Conclusions: LC protects against the progression of tubulointerstitial fibrosis in an obstructed kidney.

Jin, Jie,Cai, Lin,Liu, Zhi-Ming,Zhou, Xue-Song Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.6

Deregulated miRNAs participate in osteosarcoma genesis. In this study, the expression of miRNA-218 in human osteosarcomas, adjacent normal tissues and Saos-2 human osteosarcoma cells was first assessed. Then the precise role of miRNA-218 in osteosarcoma cells was investigated. Upon transfection with a miR-218 expression vector, the proliferation of Saos-2 human osteosarcoma cells determined using the ATPlite assay was significantly suppressed, whilw migration of Saos-2 cells detected by wound healing and invasion determined using transwells were dramatically inhibited. Potential target genes of miR-218 were predicted and T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis 1 (TIAM1) and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2) and 9 (MMP9) were identified. This was confirmed by western blotting, which showed that miR-218 expression inhibited TIAM1, MMP2 and MMP9 protein expression. Collectively, these data suggest that miR-218 acts as a tumor suppressor in osteosarcomas by down-regulating TIAM1, MMP2 and MMP9 expression.

Realization and Analysis of p-Type ZnO:Al Thin Film by RF Magnetron Sputtering

Jin, Hu-Jie,Jeong, Yun-Hwan,Park, Choon-Bae The Korean Institute of Electrical and Electronic 2008 Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Material Vol.9 No.2

Al-doped p-type ZnO thin films were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in pure oxygen ambient. ZnO ceramic mixed with 2 wt% $Al_2O_3$ was selected as a sputtering target. XRD spectra show that the Al-doped ZnO thin films have ZnO crystal structure. Hall Effect experiments with Van der Pauw configuration show that p-type carrier concentrations are arranged from $1.66{\times}10^{16}$ to $4.04{\times}10^{18}\;cm^{-2}$, mobilities from 0.194 to $198\;cm^2V{-1}s^{-1}$ and resistivities from 0.0963 to $18.4\;{\Omega}cm$. FESEM cross section images of different parts of a p-type ZnO:Al thin film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ show a compact structure. Measurement for same sample shows that density is $5.40\;cm^{-3}$ which is smaller than theoretically calculated value of $5.67\;cm^{-3}$. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra at 10 K show a shoulder peak of p-type ZnO film at about 3.117 eV which is ascribed to electron transition from donor level to acceptor level (DAP).

Jie Yu,Tae-Sung Kim,Kyu-Won Kim,Yong-Jin Park 한국육종학회 2015 한국육종학회 심포지엄 Vol.2015 No.07

Salt is the major factor limiting crop productivity in saline soils. Development of genetic basis of high salt-tolerant rice is necessary to satisfy urgent needs in rice breeding. In this study, 295 rice accessions from a Korean authentic core set were used to identify the evolution associated genes regarding salt tolerance. By using McDonald-Kreitman Test (MKT), we detected orthologous genes in rice (Oryza sativa) using Brachypodium as an outgroup to investigate fast evolved genes that express differentially based on distinct phenotypic groups. Three groups which represented the salt sensitive (group 1), salt medium tolerant (group 2) and salt tolerant (group 3) were separated and each group was examined with the outgroup in neutral and non-neutral polymorphism together with the divergence levels. Total 53 fast evolutionary genes that have a positive selection with FDR ≤ 0.05 were found in the three groups. Among them, 15, 31 and 7 genes were included exclusively in group 1, 2 and 3, respectively. Annotation of these genes showing the predicted functions were checked. Two genes were found to be related to high salt tolerance based on the previous studies. Besides, association study of the candidate gene alleles and salt tolerance phenotype was carried out, indicating that these genes were correlated with salt tolerance. All these result support that using this type of evolution study, we may find some important candidate genes which are related to important traits in rice, such as the salt tolerance, providing important information for future gene based molecular breeding and functional analysis in rice.

A new method for safety classifi cation of structures, systems and components by refl ecting nuclear reactor operating history into importance measures

Jie Cheng,Jie Liu,Shanqi Chen,Yazhou Li,Jin Wang,Fang Wang 한국원자력학회 2022 Nuclear Engineering and Technology Vol.54 No.4

Risk-informed safety classification of structures, systems and components (SSCs) is very important forensuring the safety and economic efficiency of nuclear power plants (NPPs). However, previous methodsfor safety classification of SSCs do not take the plant operating modes or the operational process of SSCsinto consideration, thus cannot concentrate on the safety and economic efficiency accurately. In thiscontribution, a new method for safety classification of SSCs based on the categorization of plant operating modes is proposed, which considers the NPPs operating history to improve the economic efficiencies while maintaining the safety. According to the time duration of plant configurations in plantoperating modes, average importances of SSCs are accessed for an NPP considering the operationalprocess, and then safety classification of SSCs is performed for plant operating modes. The correctnessand effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by application in an NPP's safety classificationof SSCs

Incorporation of carboxybetaine methacrylate into poly(methyl methacrylate) to prevent multi-species biofilm formation

Jie Jin,Ji-Yeong Kim,최우진,Myung-Jin Lee,Ji-Young Seo,Jaehun Yu,Jae-Sung Kwon,Jinkee Hong,Sung-Hwan Choi 한국공업화학회 2020 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.86 No.-

Carboxybetaine methacrylate (CBMA), which has anti-biofouling properties, was incorporated into poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) to prevent multi-species biofilm formation without impairing the criticalmechanical properties of the PMMA. The incorporation of 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine(MPC, 3 wt%) was used as a positive control. PMMA wettability was found to increase with increasingCBMA content. The addition of CBMA resulted in decreased mechanical properties of PMMA. Theincorporation of 3% CBMA into PMMA resulted in considerable long-term anti-biofouling effects thatreduce adhesion of various fungi, bacteria (Candida albicans, Actinomyces naeslundii, and Veillonellaparvula), and a human saliva-derived biofilm. The anti-biofouling effect of CBMA-incorporated PMMAsurpassed that of the positive control. By calculating the intensity of the collective band using Ramanspectroscopy, CBMA was proven to form the most stable hydration layer. Neither CBMA nor MPC groupsshowed cytotoxicity. Occlusal splints fabricated using 3% CBMA showed clinically acceptable aestheticproperties with slight turbidity. Despite a limitation in terms of deteriorations of the mechanicalproperties, the addition of an appropriate amount of CBMA to PMMA inhibited the attachment of fungiand bacteria and suppressed multi-species biofilm growth. The aesthetic properties of CBMAincorporatedPMMA are acceptable for clinical practice.

PIV experimental study on flow structure and dynamics of square stirred tank using modal decomposition

Jie Jin,Ying Fan 한국화학공학회 2020 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.37 No.5

Stirred mixing is one of the important unit operations in the chemical, petroleum, pharmaceutical and food industries. The mixing of liquids is achieved by a rotating shear flow field formed by a periodic jet flow from the impeller. In this work, we investigated the flow structure in a square stirred tank without baffles and with a Rushton impeller (RT) using particle image velocimetry (PIV) technique. The instantaneous flow fields were obtained as a function of various rotations per minute (rpm) for the impeller (N=120, 150, 180, 210 and 240 rpm), while phase-resolved velocity information was obtained for N=150 rpm. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) methods were applied to analyze the velocity fields, flow structure and dynamic information in the absence of impeller area. As demonstrated by the results, there is a wide range of spatial and temporal scales throughout the process. The high energy parts exist in two kinds of structures except for the average fluid flow. The instability phenomenon results from the cyclic shear flow and the trailing vortices structure caused by the periodic jet near the blade passage frequency. As the Reynolds number is on the rise, the periodic flow increases, the random turbulence is reduced, and the flow tends to the ultimate stable state. The square section acts like baffles to change the direction of the fluid circumferential velocity while increasing the radial and tangential flow, which is conducive to mixing. This study provides a basis for understanding the flow structure and unsteady characteristics in a square stirred mixing tank.
