DA-3585 is a recombinant human erythropoietin produced by Dong-A pharmaceutical Co. Ltd. using recombinant DNA technique. Recently, recombinant human erythropoietin (rHu-EPO) has been used to treat various types of anemia. In this study, we examined acute and subacute toxicity of DA-3585 in rats. DA-3585 was intravenously administered to rats at dose levels of 0, 6,250, 12,500 and 25,000 lU/kg for single dose toxicity study and at dose levels of 0,100,500 and 2,500IU/kg daily for 4 week-repeated dose toxicity study. In the single dose toxicity study, there were no death, clinical signs and changes in body weight gain related to the treatment. Necropsy revealed no evidence of toxicity related to DA-3585, In the repeated dose toxicity study, all the rats survived throughout the study. There were no treatment-related changes in clinical signs, food and water intake, and body weight. Hematological examination showed increases in the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin concentration, hematocrit value and mean corpuscular volume, and decrease in the number of platelet in 500 and 2,500 lU/kg dosed groups. Extramedullary hematopoiesis in the spleen and erythroid hyperplasia in the bone marrow were noted as treatment-related histological changes. Toxicologically significant changes were not observed in blood biochemistry, urinalysis, organ weights and in any other examinations. The treatment-related changes observed in this study were hematological or histological changes associated with pharmacological effects of DA-3585. On the basis of the results of this study, LD5n value of DA-3585 was above 25,000 lU/kg and the no-observed-adverse-effect-level was estimated to be 100 lU/kg.

단백질 수준이 각각 18%(초생추 사료)와 12% (비육우 사료)인 사판 사료를 사료 입자 크기로 나누어서 1.1mm이하가 전사료에 대한양외 80%와 40%인 것으로 만든 다음 각각 다른 단백질 수준과 입자 크기가 배합 사료내에 함유된 항곰광이제(0.1% W/W)의 효능에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지에 관하여 연구하였다. 시험 사료내에 함유된 수분의 함량은 12.6% (초생추 사료)와 12.7%(비육우 사료)였다. 시험 사료를 각 처리 별로 1kg씩 나누어 플라스틱통에 넣은 후 뚜껑을 약간 열어둔 상태로 상대습도가 85% 저장 온도를 $29{\pm}$$1^{\circ}C$ 되게 유지시킨 채 5일에서 40일 동안 보전한 후 곰팡이수, 생성된 탄산 가스양 그리고 생성된 아플라 톡신의 양을 측정하였다. 형성된 곰팡이 수(P＜0.05)와 탄산가스 발생양(P＜0.01)은 항곰팡이제가 가해졌을 때 사료의 입자 크기가 1.1mm이하인 것이 전사료의 40%인 구에서 현저히 높았으나 단백질 수준의 차이는 항곰팡이제의 작용에 영향을 미치지 못했다. 그러나 아플라 톡신의 생성은 사료중의 단백질 수준이 높을 수록 많았고(P＜0.05) 또 입자가 큰 것이 많은 사료일수록 현저히 높았다(P＜0.05).

사람은 채소를 통해 필수영양소인 L-Ascorbic acid (vitamin C)를 공급받는다. 본 실험의 목적은 비타민 C 생합성 유전자인 GalUR 유전자를 상추 (Lactuca sativa L.)에 형질전환 하고자 실시하였다. (주)농우바이오의 화홍적축면 상추의 자엽 절편체를 선발배지 (MS + 30 g/L Sucrose + 0.5 mg/L BAP + 0.1 mg/L NAA + 100 mg/L Kanamycin + 200 mg/L Lilacillin, pH 5.2.)에 치상하여 3주 경과후 자엽 절편체의 절단면에서 callus와 신초가 형성되었다. 그 결과 GalUR 유전자로 상추형질전환을 성공하였고 비타민 C 함량을 분석하였다. 대조구에 비하여 상추 형질전환체 line에서 높은 함량의 비타민 C 특히, GalUR 유전자가 삽입된 $T_1$ 중 일부는 비형질전환체에 비해 $3{\sim}4$배 높은 비타민 C 함량을 나타내었다. 이 결과는 GLOase 유전자 형질전환 상추 $T_1$ 세대에서 고함량의 비타민 C를 함유한 결과와 일치한다. 이런 결과를 기초로 하여 비타민 C 고함량 $T_2$ line을 선발하였다.

Menopause is induced by spontaneous ovarian failure and leads to life quality deterioration with various irritating symptoms. Hormonal treatment can alleviate these symptoms, but long-term treatment is closely associated with breast and uterine cancer, and stroke. Therefore, developing alternative therapies with novel anti-menopausal substances and improved safety is needed. In our study, heat-killed Bifidobacterium breve HDB7040 significantly promoted MCF-7 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner under estrogen-free conditions, similar to 17β-estradiol. This strain also triggered ESR2 expression, but not ESR1, in MCF-7 cells. Moreover, administrating HDB7040 to ovariectomized (OVX) Sprague-Dawley (SD) female rats reduced estrogen deficiency-induced weight gain, fat mass, blood triglyceride, and total cholesterol levels. It also recovered collapsed trabecular microstructure by improving trabecular morphometric parameters (bone mineral density, bone volume per tissue volume, trabecular number, and trabecular separation) and decreasing blood alkaline phosphatase levels with no significant changes in uterine size and blood estradiol. HDB7040 also significantly regulated the expression of Tff1, Pgr, and Esr2, but not Esr1 in uteri of OVX rats. Heat-killed B. breve HDB7040 exerts an anti-menopausal effect via the specific regulation of ERβ in vitro and in vivo, suggesting its potential as a novel substance for improving and treating menopausal syndrome.

세리포리아 락세라타 균사체 배양물(CL01)의 혈당 강하 효과를 확인하기 위해 in-vitro 및 in-vivo 시험을 수행하였다. CL01이 INS-1 세포에서 덱사메타손에 의한 세포 사멸 방지 효과를 나타냈으며 3T3-L1 세포에서는 당수송체인 GLUT4의 발현을 증가시켰다. 제 2형 당뇨 마우스를 4 그룹(normal control (G1), negative control (G2), positive control (G3), CL01 250 mg/kg (G4))으로 나누어 6주간 매일 CL01을 투여한 후 혈중 지표를 확인한 결과, CL01 섭취군은 체중, 사료 및 물 섭취량에서 음성대조군 대비 유의적인 차이를 보이지 않았다. 투여 5주 후 CL01 섭취군의 혈당이 음성대조군 대비 유의적인 감소를 보였으며 6주 경과 시 혈중 인슐린은 36% 증가하였고 혈중 C-peptide 농도는 18% 감소하였다. 경구 당 부하 시험 결과 CL01 섭취군의 혈당이 음성대조군 대비 15% 감소하였다. 이상의 결과를 통해 CL01이 베타 세포를 증식시켜 인슐린 분비를 촉진하고 혈당을 낮추는 효과가 있음을 알 수 있다.

The characteristics of methanol and methanol blended (M85) sprays were investigated under atmospheric conditions at various temperature, ranging from on-vaporizing to vaporizing ambient conditions (298∼353 K). From laser scattering images, the macroscopic characteristics of the spray, such as the spray tip penetration and the spray angle, were determined. Entropy concept was introduced to represent homogeneity and PIV analysis was adopted to determine the fluid dynamic information at each location of the spray. The correlation between entropy and vorticity strength enabled us to find their relations. The effect of ambient composition, mainly of viscous effect as affected by CO$_2$levels, was investigated using PIV and entropy analysis. Spray width and entropy value were found to tend to decrease at increased CO$_2$levels.

Congestion problems can be approached from the viewpoint of system dynamics theory. The relationship between road capacity and congestion can be explained by the 'relative control' archetype among four system archetypes suggested by Wolstenholme. There is a balancing feedback loop between road capacity and road congestion. However, there is another balancing loop between road congestion and car traffic volume, which keeps disrupting the equilibrium of the former loop. A system dynamics model, which is based on a partial adjustment model of induced traffic in the literature, is built to simulate three road building scenarios: 'Expanding investment', 'Balancing investment' and 'Frozen road investment' scenarios. The 'Expanding investment' scenario manages to drop congestion levels by 9% over 30 years, however, causing much higher emissions of $CO_2$ than other scenarios. The trade-off relationship between congestion levels and environmental costs must be taken into consideration for road investment policies.

Zn$_4$SnSe$_{6}$ and Zn$_4$SnSe$_{6}$ :Co$^{2+}$ single crystals were by the chemical transport reaction method. They crystallized in the monoclinic structure. The direct energy band gaps of the Zn$_4$SnSe$_{6}$ and Zn$_4$SnSe$_{6}$ :Co$^{2+}$single crystals at 289k were found to be 2.146eV and 2.042eV. Optical absorption due to impurity in the Zn$_4$SnSe$_{6}$ :Co$^{2+}$single crystal was observed and described as originating from the electron transition between energy levels of Co$^{2+}$ion sited at T$_{d}$ symmetry point.y point.

In this study, we built a mock-up of an indoor garden for private use and vertical gardens were installed on the walls of this indoor garden model. The purpose of this study is to examine the types of plants for best fit for growth and nurture in vertical garden and to identify the effects of indoor air quality improvement by these plants. As the result of the experiment, 22 species out of 32 species previously used for indoor garden was selected to be suitable for vertical gardens of a personal indoor garden. 10 species were found to be inappropriate for a personal indoor garden in terms of ornamental value, growth status and maintenance. The effect of plants on reducing CO2 has been proven by many studies. Also, through photosynthesis, plants combine CO2 with water and produce sugars and O2 (oxygen). Everyone accepts this fact. In nature, the production of oxygen is so important that without plants we would soon use it up and die. From the NASA Fact Sheet we know that air contains 20.95% O2 and 0.04% CO2. If you had enough plants in a room to use up all of the all of CO2 and convert it to oxygen, the oxygen levels would increase from 20.95% to 21%. This increase is difficult to detect and would have no effect on humans.
