Because insect visitors was different depending on decomposition stage, dipterans occurred on chicken carcasses depending on postmortem intervals were compared by abandoned sites and decomposition from a serial study on arthropod occurrence from carcasses as forensic indicator. Species occurrence and decomposition of carcasses were different depending on abandoned sites (forest hill, open field, stream, greenhouse and roof), seasons (spring, summer, fall and winter), and situation (burying and non-burying). Development of carcass decomposition was faster at all sites in summer, carcass in greenhouse in winter, and unburied carcasses. Although visiting time of blow flies (Calliphoridae) (Phaenicia sericata, Lucilia illustris, Lucilia sp., Chrysomyia pinguis, and Chrysomyia megacephala) was different depending on abandoned season, their adults were generally collected from carcasses within 2 days. However, there were no visited flies at fresh stage of buried carcasses. The flesh flies (Sarcophagidae) were collected from all sites and seasons, and much faster from unburied carcasses than buried carcasses. Those were collected earlier from carcasses in greenhouse than other sites and occurrence was also shorter. In greenhouse, occurrence time of flesh flies were different depending on season; spring and summer - from fresh to active decay stage, fall - fresh to active decay stage, and winter - advanced decay to remains stage. Calliphora lata, Tricerotopyga calliphoroides, and Aldrichana grahami were dominant species and occurrences were different from other flies. These flies were active mainly from fresh to active stage. Larvae of sarcophagid flies were occurred earlier than those of calliphorid flies on buried carcasses.

Patella surgery of small animal is an important veterinary surgery that the veterinarian should saw and drill the dislocated patella in order to fix the corrected position. However, the animal protection laws restrict the veterinarian students' chances for the practice and training of the patella surgery. This paper proposed a haptic based patella surgery simulator for veterinarian students. We modelled force feedback methods in order to provide best similar haptic feedbacks to the real drilling feedbacks in the patella surgery. The proposed patella drilling simulator provides haptic interface as a drill and a workbench in order to provide best surgery experiences. We conducted the performance evaluations in order to prove usability of the proposed patella surgery interface.

Recent 3D printing technology has been grafting onto various medical practices. In light of this trend, this research is intended to examine the figuration surface's accuracy of 3D images made by using DICOM images after printing by 3D printing. The medical images were obtained from animal bone objects, while the objects were printed after undergoing STL file conversion for 3D printing purposes. Ultimately, after the 3D figuration, which was obtained by the original animal bones and 3D printing, was scanned by 3D scanner, 3D modeling was merged each other and the differences were compared. The result analysis was conducted by visual figuration comparison, color comparison of modeling's scale value, and numerical figuration comparison. The shape surface was not visually distinguished; the numerical figuration comparison was made from the values measured from the four different points on the X, Y and Z coordinates. The shape surface of the merged modeling was smaller than the original object (the animal bone) by average of -0.49 mm in the 3D printed figuration. However, not all of the shape surface was uniformly reduced in size and the differences was within range of -0.83 mm on the experiment.

This study was performed to investigate the effects of Cheonggukjang (traditional soybean food, CK) and Cheonggukjang added with Phellinus linteus myceria (CKP) on the lipid metabolism, growth, food intake, and food efficiency ratio(FER) in adult female rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were fed a high fat diet (control diet: 0.1% cholesterol, 10% Lard) for 4 weeks. The rats were randomly assigned to each treatment group: control, and two kinds of CK and CKP (powders of CK and CKP as dietary protein sources). After 4 weeks of experimental diet consumption, the body weights and the uterine fat pad weights of the CK and CKP diet groups were more significantly decreased than those of the control diet group. The hepatic cholesterol, triglyceride and total lipid levels were significantly lower in both the CK and CKP diet fed groups than those in the control group. The concentrations in serum triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol were significantly decreased in the CK and CKP diet groups compared to those in the control group. Fecal total lipid, moisture and wet weight excretion in the CK and CKP diet groups were more increased than those in the control group. These results showed that feeding of cheonggukjang and cheonggukjang added with Phellinus linteus myceria both the triglyceride and LDL-cholesterol in serum, as well as the triglyceride and cholesterol in the livers of the rats.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the characteristics of animal carcasses treatment and quarantine management of infectious diseases of livestock, and to present the effectiveness of quarantine and follow-up management of livestock infectious diseases. Method: Actually, a livestock epidemic occurred and the burial site and burial management facility that treated livestock carcasses were visited on-site to analyze the management status and problems. Result: The burial method of livestock outbreaks of livestock infectious diseases and the long-term follow-up management accordingly requires a large amount of manpower and budget to be spent. For example, it can be seen that it is an inefficient quarantine system. Conclusion: It is necessary to review plans for the establishment of integrated livestock infectious animal carcasses treatment facilities at the level of metropolitan cities, districts, and municipalities with the government, where there is no fear of secondary infectious disease transmission and no follow-up management is required.

게류는 절지동물문 갑각목 십각아목에 속하는 무척추동물로서 해양동식물의 사체나 데트리터스를 먹으며 해양생태계의 먹이그물에서 중요한 생태적 지위를 갖는다. 조간대에 서식하는 종은 육상과 조하대 사이, 하구역에 서식하는 종은 담수와 해수사이, 심해에 서식하는 종은 표층과 심층 사이의 물질과 에너지 순환을 제공한다. 국내에서 이루어진 게류에 관한 연구는 주로 일부 상업성 종류의 자원학적 연구만 이루어져 있고, 군집에 관한 연구는 광양만 잘피밭에 서식하는 게류 군집의 종조성과 계절 변동 (Huh and An, 1998)이 있을 뿐 아직까지 우리나라 해역에 어떤 종이 언제 출현하는지 조차 잘 알려져 있지 않다. 본 연구에서는 가덕도 주변 해역에 서식하는 게류 군집의 종조성과 계절변동을 파악하고자 하였다.

본 논문에서는 동물의 십자인대 질환의 진단지표인 경골고원각도(TPA)를 자동으로 측정하는 딥러닝 소프트웨어 기법을 제안한다. 동물 X-ray 영상에서 나타나는 피사체의 위치와 형태에 대한 다양한 변이는 TPA(Tibial Plateau Angle) 지표 산출에 필요한 특징점 검출과정에서 학습 효율을 현저하게 저하시킨다. 이에 본 연구에서는 YOLO(You Only Look Once) 기반 모델을 사용하여 일차적으로 경골영역의 분할 단계를 수행하고, 이어서 경골 상단부의 과간융기와 복사뼈의 중심점을 찾는 과정을 Resnet 기반의 특징점 추출 모듈로서 구현함으로써 학습의 효율과 지표 검출의 정확도를 향상시켰다. 총 201 개의 실제 X-ray 영상을 사용하여 학습 속도와 영역 분할 및 특징점 추출의 정확도 측면을 고려함으로 제안된 이론의 타당성을 실험적으로 평가하였다.

Humans and wild birds coexist in cities, where habitat fragmentation due to urbanization threatens the habitat and movement of birds. In this study, in order to identify landscape features associated with wild bird collide, we characterized landscape composition within a 500 m radius and points of wild bird carcasses in Suwon-city, South Korea. Dead birds were identified as having a Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) of 0.3, Normalized Difference Built-up Index (NDBI) of -0.05, and Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) of -0.16 at the points of collide. And there were NDVI of 0.34, NDBI of -0.01, NDWI of -0.18, building height of 13.8 m, and soundproof wall length of 227.3 m within a radius of 500 m. Land cover type was dominated by grassland, used area, and bare land. In particular, the edges of urbanized areas, where apartments bordered forests, reservoirs, and golf courses, were identified as high-risk spaces. In order to minimize bird mortality risk in urban environments, the impact of changes to a vertical landscape should be reviewed from an environmental impact assessment approach. In addition, a preventive management plan that considers the temporal and spatial features that wild animals can safely avoid and adapt to in urbanized spaces should be prepared.
