The objectives of the study were to evaluate seasonal patterns of epilimnetic water quality, and determine interannual eutrophication patterns at the dam site of Yong-dam Reservoir using long-term data during 2002~2009. Ionic dilutions, based on specific conductivity, occurred in the summer period in response to the intense monsoon rain and inflow, and suspended solid analysis indicated that the reservoir was clear except for the monsoon. Seasonality of nitrogen contents varied depending on the types of nitrogen and responded to ionic dilution; Ammonia-nitrogen ($NH_4$-N) peaked at dry season but nitrate-nitrogen ($NO_3$-N) peaked in the monsoon when the ionic dilution occurred. The maxima of $NO_3$-N seemed to be related with external summer N-loading from the watershed and active nitrogen fixation of bluregreens in the summer. $NO_3$-N was major determinant (>50%) of the total nitrogen pool and relative proportion of $NH_4$-N was minor. Long-term annual $NO_3$-N and TDN showed continuous increasing trends from 2004 to 2009, whereas TP and TDP showed decreasing trends along with chlorophyll-a (CHL) values. Empirical model analysis of log-transformed nutrients and N : P ratios on the CHL showed that the reservoir CHL had a stronger linear function with TP ($R^2$=0.89, p<0.001) than TN ($R^2$=0.35, p=0.120). Overall results suggest that eutrophication progress, based on TP and CHL, is slow down over the study period and this was mainly due to reduced phosphorns, which is considered as primary nutrient by the empirical model.

Crepidiastrum lanceolatum ($H_{OUTT}$) $N_{AKAI}$ (Compositae) is distributed in East Asia including Korea. Genetic diversity and population structure of six C. lanceolatum populations in Korea and two populations in Japan were determined using genetic variation at 19 allozyme loci. The percent of polymorphic loci within the enzymes was 42.1%. Genetic diversity at the species level and at the population level was low (Hes : 0.077; Hep : 0.068, respectively), where-as the extent of the population divergence was relatively low ($G_{ST}$ : 0.093). One of the most striking features of this study was the more significant difference within populations than among populations. An indirect estimate of the number of migrants per generation (Nm : 2.44) indicated that gene flow was moderate among eight populations of the species. In addition, analysis of fixation indices revealed a slight heterozygosity deficiency in some populations and at some loci. Narrow geographic ranges, short-lived perennial herbaceous, and small population sizes are mainly associated with the low level of genetic variation.n.

The aerobic heterotrophic bacteria in the histosphere associated with grasses (Gramineae, Caryphyllaceae, Crucifereae) and rice cultivars in saline and reclaimed saline paddy soils were varied with species and rice cultivars. The fraction of aerobic heterotrophic $N_2$-fixing bacteria to the total aerobic heterotrophic bacteria were averaged to eighteen percent in the histosphere of grasses and rice. Acetylene reducing activity of these bacteria were ranged from 1 to 24 n mole/tube/hr. Most of the bacteria strains were predominated of hydrogen utilizing bacteria. The majority of these bacteria were closed to Pseudomonas, Azospirillum, Klebsiella and Agrobacter.

광합성 미생물을 이용하여 $CO_2$를 항산화성 카로티노이드를 다량 함유하고 있는 바이오매스로 전환하는 새로운 방법의 생물학적 $CO_2$ 저감 기술이 제시되었다. 본 연구에서 담수 녹색 미세 조류인 Haematococcus pluvialis가 광합성 미생물로 사용되었으며, 이 균주는 녹색의 성장 세포에서 적색의 포낭 세포로 전환될 때 2차 카로티노이드인 astaxanthin을 세포 내에 다량 축적하는 것으로 알려졌다. 균주의 이러한 특성을 이용하여 $CO_2$가 연속적으로 공급되는 광 반응기에서 자가 영양 배양 방식으로 $CO_2$ 고정화 및 그것을 통한 astaxanthin 생산 연구가 수행되었다. 녹색 성장 세포의 성장은 5％ $CO_2$ 공급 환경 및 기본 NIES-C 배지에서 최대로 이루어졌다. 적색 포낭 세포로 효과적인 전환을 위해 5％ $CO_2$ 주입과 강한 빛 조사로 이루어진 자가 영양 유도법을 적용하였으며, 이 공정을 통해 $9.6mg/L{\cdot}day$의 astaxanthin 생산성을 획득하였다. 이때 astaxanthin으로 전환되는 $CO_2$의 균주 내 고정화 속도는 $27.8mg/L{\cdot}day$로 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 제시된 H. pluvialis를 이용한 자가 영양 배양, 유도 공정은 $CO_2$ 고정화뿐만 아니라 고부가 생리 물질 생산기능을 겸비하여 새로운 $CO_2$ 저감기술로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Blood perfusion of skeletal muscle and callus was evaluated using contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in a canine osteotomy model to determine the applicability of CEUS in the assessment of neovascularization during fracture healing and to compare the vascular signals on CEUS between external skeletal fixation and cast-applied dogs. In 6 Beagle dogs, a simple transverse osteotomy was performed at the left tibial shaft and external skeletal fixation (n = 3) or a cast (n = 3) was applied. Radiography, power Doppler ultrasonography (power Doppler), and CEUS were performed until complete union was achieved. On CEUS, vascular changes were quantitatively evaluated by measuring peak intensity (PI) and time to PI in the soft tissue and callus and by counting the vascular signals. Vascular signals from the soft tissue were detected on power Doppler and CEUS on day 2. Significantly more vascular signals were detected by CEUS than by power Doppler. On CEUS, PI in the surrounding soft tissue was markedly increased after the fracture line appeared indistinctively changed on radiography in all dogs. In the cast-applied dogs, vascular signals from the periosteal and endosteal callus were detected on CEUS before mineralized callus was observed on radiography. CEUS was useful in assessing the vascularity of soft tissue and callus, particularly in indirect fracture healing, and provided indications of a normally healing fracture.

배경: 심장 혈관계 수술에서 인공 조직 보철편은 주로 소나 돼지 판막, 심낭의 글루타알데하이드 고정 방법을 사용하고 있으나 중장기적으로 이식편의 석회화 및 물리-기계적인 결함이 문제시 되고 있다. 이 중 본 연구에서는 소의 심낭에 글루타알데하이드 고정, 용매, 무세포화, 항독성화 처리가 조직의 물리-기계적 장력 및 신장도에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 아무런 처리를 하지 않은 신선한 소의 심낭과 여러 방법의 글루타알데하이드 고정 및 용매 첨가 그룹, 무세포화 그룹, 항독성화 처리 그룹 등으로 나누어 각 조직의 물리-기계적 장력 및 신장도 검사를 시행하였다. 심낭을 30도 각도로 달리하여 얻어낸 6가지 방향에 대하여 폭 5 mm에 대한 인장 강도를 구하여 장력을 측정하였고, 양방향으로 늘려 끊어지는 시점에서의 길이를 측정하여 늘어난 정도를 구하여 신장도를 측정하였다. 결과: 1) 상용 농도의 글루타알데하이드 고정시 장력이 감소하며(n=83, $MPa=11.47{\pm}5.40$, p=0.006) 용매를 첨가하였을 때 장력의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 신장도는 글루타알데하이드 고정시 늘어났으며(n=83, strain $(%)=24.55{\pm}9.81$, p=0.00), 용매 첨가시 신장도의 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 2) 무세포화 처리시 대부분의 장력은 감소하는 경향을 보였으며(p>0.05) 장기간 저농도 용액 처리, 고농도의 세정용매 처리시 장력의 감소가 통계적으로 유의했으며(p=0.01, p=0.00), 신장도는 늘어나는 경향을 보였다. 3) 항독성화 처리 시 장력 및 신장도에 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론: 소의 심낭에 글루타알데하이드 고정, 용매, 항독성화 처리 후에는 장력 손실이 관찰되지 않으며 신장도는 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 무세포화에 따른 장력의 손실이 뚜렷하였으나 저 농도 세정제 사용과 고농도 용액처리를 보강한 무세포화 처리에서는 장력의 손실이 향상되었다. 계속해서 더 나은 이식 보철편개발을 위한 다양한 용매의 연구 개발이 필요하다.

To determine the appropriate concentration of papaverine hydrochloride(PPV) for therapeutic intraarterial infusion against cerebral vasospasm and to measure the mean blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery in rabbits. Vasospasm was induced in the experimental groups (3 days after infusion; group 1, n=3, 7 days after infusion; group 2, n=3) and a control group (n=l) by placing a blood clot in the subarachnoid space around the top of the internal carotid siphon. PPV (5 mg/kg) was infused into the internal carotid artery. The vascular diameters of the internal carotid artery (ICA) and middle cerebral artery (MCA) were measured on angiograms before and after infusion. The mean blood flow velocity in the MCA was measured on transcranial doppler sonograms before and 24 hours after infusion. After fixation, the MCA was dissected out, stained, and examined microscopically. After PPV infusion in both groups, vascular dilatation of about $20\%$ was seen. The mean increase in blood flow velocity in the group $1(30\%)$ was smaller than in the group $2(70\%)$. The mean blood flow velocity in the MCA decreased by about $30\%$ in both groups, but increased again after 24 hours nearly to the level before PPV infusion. PPV infusion may be more effective in early stages of vasospasm when vascular walls have fewer histologic changes.

Nitrate grown cells of cyanobacterium Plectonema boryanum, transferred to nitrogen stress, evolved nitrogenase catalyzed $H_2$ under microaerophilic condition. Nitrogen ($N_2$) in gs phase, low light intensity, and reducing substances in incubation phase stimulated $N_2$fixation ($H_2\;evolution$). Cyanobacterium grew slowly under microaerobic condition with a low intracellular ammonia pool. Nitrogen sources (${NO_3}^-,{NH_4}^+,\;and\;CH_3NH_3$) inhibited nitrogenase and glutamine synthetase (GS) transferase activity, and methylamine behaved like an ammonical nitrogen source. Depletion of molybdenum (Mo) and addition of tungsten (W) in the incubation medium inhibited $H_2$ evolution, Cyanobacterium was able to take up nitrate and expressed nitrate reductase (NR) activity under microaerophilic condition at an extremely slow rate.

The objective of the present study was to assess the prevalence, occurrence pattern, and clinical outcomes of transfixation pinning and casting (TPC) for fractures in Korean native calves, and to identify the advantages of the procedure. The study investigated 52 cases of bone fractures documented from January 2017 to December 2020. Hindlimb fractures (72%) were the most common in bone fractures (n = 50). The distribution of fractures was highest in the tibia (n = 15), followed by the metatarsal (n = 12), femur (n = 9), radius/ulna (n = 8), metacarpal (n = 3), humerus (n = 3), mandible (n = 1), and caudal vertebrae (n = 1). All cases were diagnosed via radiographic evaluation. Closed fractures (86%) were the most common, followed by open fractures (14%). Surgery was performed on 34 calves using intramedullary pin (IM pin), TPC, cross pin, flexible wire (F-wire), and/or plate fixation. The rest of the calves were treated with external coaptation (n = 12) or were not treated (n = 6). Subsequently, 24 calves with follow-up records were evaluated in the bone fracture cases (n = 50). Bone union was observed in 15 (62%) calves; 3 (12%) calves showed non-union; 4 (16%) calves were dead after surgery; and 2 (8%) calves were euthanized at the owner's request. Among the 24 follow-up surgery cases, the most successful cases were tibia fractures (75%) surgically treated using TPC and/or IM pin. These findings suggest that TPC surgery is effective in the management of fractures in Korean native calves.
