This study was carried out to investigatigate feed cost of com-manure silage and growth performance of Korean native goats which was fed com-manure silage. The average weight about 11.6 kg of twenty one Korean native male goats (4 months used to determine the effect of the feeding trial. The goats were individually reared in metabolism cages and fed diet daily of 2% of the body weight on the dry matter basis. The treatments were divided into whole crop com silage(CS silage), whole crop com ensiled with cage layer manure (CLM; Com-manure silage or MS silage) and whole crop com silage supplemented with urea at feeding time (US silage). The content of crude protein, lactic acid and the ratio of ammonia nitrogen to total nitrogen ($NH_3-N/Total$ N) in MS silage were increased from 7.7 to 14.9%, 5.7 to 7.5% and 8.2 to 16.6%, and the differences were significantly (p < 0.05) different in all observations. Total body weight gain of those goats for 90 days was 6.0 kg (66.7 g/day; MS silage 4.3 kg (47.8 g/day; US silage) and 3.9 kg (43.4 g/day; CS silage), and feed conversion of MS silage (5.98) for 90 days was increased by far the best in the other groups and decreased about 30% in proportion to CS silage. Feed cost per 1 kg MS silage (1,606 won) was the lowest (p < 0.05) in the body weight gain and cut down expenses than fed CS silage by 37% of feed cost.

The concentration of free fatty acids and fatty acid composition as well as cholesterol supersaturation in bile may be an important factor in the gallstone formation. Therefore, we simultaneously determinded 23 fatty acids in bile by selected ion monitoring (SIM) method of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Biliary fatty acids were extracted by aminopropyl column and the extracts with (phospholipid fraction) or without (free fatty acid fraction) alkaline hydrolysis of phospholipid were derivatized with MSTFA/TMCS (N-methyl-N-trimethylsilyl-trifluoroacetamide/trimethylsilylchloride) mixture in order to be detected on the GC-MS. The recovery range of this method was 61.1-99.0% and the RSD value of within-a-day and day-to-day test were 3.1-25.6% and 3.8-27.0%, respectively. Using this method, biliary profile was investigated in the bile of normal controls and patients with gallstones. The amounts and their distribution of free and phospholipid fatty acids showed different pattern between normal subjects and patients.

The essential oil was prepared by a gas co-distillation method from flavedo of Poncirus trifoliata and was analyzed by GC/ retention index (RI) and GC/MS. The essential oil prepared by a gas co-distillation gave a whole fragrance of Poncirus trifoliata. The identification of the flavor components was performed by multi-dimensional analysis using GC/RI and GC/MS. GC/RI and GC/MS were complementary to each other. In applying GC/RI for identification, it was more effective when two columns of different polarities were used. Thirty volatile flavor constituents were identified in Poncirus trifoliata. Limonene, myrcene, ${\beta}-caryophyllene,\;trans-{\beta}-ocimene$, ${\beta}-pinene$, 3-thujene and 7-geranyloxycoumarin were the major constituents and cis-3-hexenyl acetate, n-hexyl acetate, 2-methyl acetophenone, elixene and elemicine had not been reported earlier as citrus components.

Antioxidant activity of a methanol extract of Symphyocladia latiuscula was evaluated by the thiocyanate method in the linoleic acid system. The methanol extract inhibited the peroxidation of linoleic acid in a dose-dependent manner. The MeOH extract was then sequentially partitioned with n-hexane, $CH_2Cl_2$, EtOAc, n-BuOH and H20. The antioxidant activity of the fractions increased in order of $CH_2Cl_2$, n-hexane, EtOAc, and n-BuOH. There was no activity found in $H_2O$ partitoned fraction by the thiocyanate method. Especially, the activities of the fractions of n-hexane and $CH_2Cl_2$ were comparable to that of 2,6-di-tert­butylhydroxytoluene (BHT). Column chromatography of the $CH_2Cl_2$ fraction over silica gel yielded cholesterol (1) and 2,3,6-tribromo 4,5-dihydroxybenzyl methyl ether (2) which were identified by instrumental analysis of MS and $^1H-$ and $^{13}C-NMR$. The latter (2) demonstrated significant antioxidant activity.

We analyzed the total yields and composition of essential oils in leaf extracts of Nepeta cataria by Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Thirty-six compounds representing 97.0% of total oil were detected. The major constituents of essential oils in Nepeta cataria were nepetalactone (90.9%), unidentified compound (Retention time 17.35; 1.82%), 1,8-cineol (1.49%), ${\beta}-caryophyllene$ (1.12%), and ${\beta}-pinene$ (1.078%). The volatile compounds in leaf extracts of N. cataria concentrated to nepetalactone ($88.83{\sim}93.33%$) remarkably. In the essential oil of N. cataria cis,trans-nepetalactone ($30.2{\sim}37.8%$) and cis,cis-nepetalactone ($31.5{\sim}37.0%$) were found as the main constituents. The effects of essential oil of N. cataria on the growth of six microorganisms (Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis, B. amyloliquefaciens, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) were investigated. The essential oil of N. cataria had strong inhibitory effect on the growth of three fungal species (Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis, and B. amyloliquefaciens). The essential oil from N. cataria was found to have a low antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus, while no activity were found against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Results indicate the significant antimicrobial effect, which may be depended on the yield of nepetalactone.

This study was conducted to establish the simultaneous analysis method for veterinary drug residues in honey by high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/MS/MS). The eleven targeting veterinary drugs with honey test method in Korean Food Standards Codex were divided into Group 1 (streptomycine dihydrostreptomycine, neomycine) and Group 2 (oxytetracycline, enrofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, cymiazole, chloramphenicol, amitraz, coumaphos, fluvalinate) to be analyzed simultaneously. From the results, the retention time (RT) of the targeting drugs was within 15 min, the range of detection limits was 0.0056 to $0.0643{\mu}g/g$ and the range of quantification limits was 0.0169 to $0.1948{\mu}g/g$. The coefficients of determination ($R^2$) for Group 1 ($0.05{\sim}1.0{\mu}g/mL$) and Group 2 ($0.01{\sim}1.0{\mu}g/mL$) were 0.9917~0.9987 and 0.9923~1.000 respectively, and showed the good linearity. The recovery rates for Group 1 (final conc. $0.25{\mu}g/g$) and Group 2 (final conc. $1.0{\mu}g/g$) were 65.1~80.6% and 64.2~90.3% respectively. Also, the analysis results of inter day (n = 3) and intra day (n = 6) RSD (%) for area and retention time showed that the RSD (%) for area and retention time was below 10.92% and 1.57%. Therefore, the simultaneous analysis method of this study is evaluated to be a good test method for veterinary drug residues in honey.

This study was carried out to address an efficient in vitro regeneration system from seed-derived callus of Phragmites communis, and to evaluate genetic variations of the regenerants using ISSR markers. Shoot regeneration via calli was greatly influenced by N6 medium compared with MS medium, and plant regeneration frequency was 90% in N6 supplemented with BA 0.25 mg/L and BA 0.5 mg/L. According to ISSR analysis of the thirty regenerants, out of 94 loci detected overall, 16 were identified to be polymorphic with a rate (PR) of 17.0%. The mean gene diversity (h) of different in vitro condition was 0.03 and ranged from 0.008 for N6 with BA 5 mg/L, to 0.040 for MS with IAA 0.1 mg/L+kinetin 2 mg/L. The results indicate that the regenerants have a low genetic variation, and ISSR analysis is effective to detect genetic variation of regenerants.

Objectives : Chronic alcohol consumption has been known to result in various neurocognitive deficits. Many neuropsychological studies revealed that the major disturbances occurred in the executive function, learning and short-term memory, visuospatial performance function, perceptuo-motor skills, and abstraction and problem solving abilities. This study was done to identify which cognitive areas might be mainly affected. Methods : The cognitive disturbance was evaluated using the Korean Version of the Mini Mental State Examination(MMSEK) and the 7 Minute Screen(7MS) in male inpatients with alcohol dependence(N=3 : as well as in age and education level matched healthy male controls(N=30). Four individual tests of the 7MS were consisted of the Benton Temporal Orientation Test, the Enhanced Cued Recall, the Clock Drawing and the Category Fluency. Results : 1) The average scores of four individual test of the 7MS for the alcoholics were $2.77{\pm}4.38$ for the Benton Temporal Orientation Test, $13.90{\pm}2.02$ for the Memory Test(the Cued Recall $6.77{\pm}1.94$, the Uncued Recall $7.10{\pm}2.45$), $5.84{\pm}1.86$ for the Clock Drawing, and $12.58{\pm}3.29$ for the Category Fluency. Except the Benton Temporal Orientation Test, there were statistically significant differences between test scores of alcoholics and those of controls(p<0.01). 2) The alcoholics who had MMSE-K score <24 were 9.68%. The average(${\pm}S.D.$) score of the MMSE-K for the patient group($27.23{\pm}2.62$) was significantly(p<0.001) lower than that of the healthy controls($29.20{\pm}1.24$). There were no statistically significant differences between four individual test scores of the 7MS of alcoholics with the MMSE-K score <24(N=3) and those of alcoholics with the MMSE-K score ${\geq}24$(N=28). 3) Four individual test scores of the 7MS seemed to have statistically significant association with such variables as MMSE-K, duration of alcohol drinking, blood magnesium concentration, liver function and thyroid function. Conclusion : Mild deficits of cognitive areas such as orientation, memory, visuospatial abilities and verbal fluency could be found in alcohol dependence.
