돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스의 nucleocapsid와 반응을 하는 SDOW17 단크론항체를 이용하여 중성 포르말린에 고정시킨 자연감염된 포유자돈의 폐장에서 면역조직화학법을 이용하여 돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스 항원을 확인하였다. 서울대학교 수의과대학 병리학교실에 의뢰된 포유자돈들 중에서 병리조직학적으로 폐장에서 간질성 폐렴이 관찰된 포유자돈 7두를 임의로 선택하여 본 실험을 실시하였다. 간질성 폐렴의 병변으로 많은 수의 대식세포 침윤을 동반한 폐포벽 두께의 증가와 제II형 폐포세포의 비후가 관찰되었다. 검사한 7두 포유자돈중에서 6두에서 돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스에 대한 항체를 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay에 의해 확인하였다. SDOW17 단크론항체를 이용한 면역조직화학염색과 간질성 폐렴의 대식세포에서 돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스의 항원을 검출하였고, 항원은 (주로)대식세포의 세포질에서만 진한 갈색의 양성반응이 관찰되었다. 이상 검사결과 돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스는 폐장의 간질과 폐포강에 분포되어 있는 대식세포에서 주로 증식하는 것으로 판명되었다. 본 실험에서 사용한 면역조직화학법은 돼지 생식기 호흡기 증후군 바이러스 감염여부를 바이러스 분리 또는 혈청검사 없이 진단하는데 사용할 수 있는 유용한 진단방법으로 판명되었다.

The nonobese diabetic / severe combined immune deficiency (NOD/SCID) has been used for determination of proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells as xenotransplantation animal model. In this study, we transplanted porcine hematopoietic cells from bone marrow into NOD/SCID mice via intravenous injection to confirm the activity of differentiation and proliferation for porcine hematopoietic cells in vivo. Interestingly, we observed the result of high efficiency with pig T lymphocytes in hematopoietic organs, liver, spleen lymph node, and bone marrow in NOD/SCID mice. The porcine $CD3^{+}$ T cells were detected with $5.4{\pm}1.9%$ in bone marrow, $15.4{\pm}7.3%$ in spleen, $21.3{\pm}1.4%$ in liver, and $33.5{\pm}32.8%$ in lymph node of NOD/SCID mice at 6 weeks after trans-plantation Furthermore, immunohistochemical analysis showed the high engraftment of porcine T lymphocytes in spleen of NOD/SCID mice. Our data suggest that NOD/SCID mice are excellent animal model to determinate the generation md function of pig T lymphocytes.

The study of radiation-hazard in the human skin tissue is carried out by direct irradiating to experimental animals. The influences of a radiation to the animal's skin tissue are analyzed from this experiment. However, this also accompanies losses in terms of both time and economy. In this study, we simulated human tissue by using a swine skin tissue. The depth of the swine skin tissue for the experiment is determined, and the amount of the direct radiation below this skin depth is analyzed numerically. The amount of the radiation occurred by exposure below the skin tissue can be inferred. Moreover, it is possible to use only cells effectively and animal experiments to analyze the body-hazard by radiation.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the risks and criminal progress of pig murder fraud crimes in the absence of related research and statistics amid a surge in pig murder fraud damage in Korea, and to approach the methods, problems, and countermeasures that can be prevented in Korea through foreign cases. Method: In order to classify the types of pig murder fraud crimes, the progress was analyzed through related reports and statistics, and various damage cases. Result: The crime of pig murder fraud can be seen as an organized crime that organically combines simple romance scams, investment fraud, and human trafficking. In the case of victims, unlike simple fraud, psychological problems such as suicide impulse and panic disorder were found, and in the case of cryptocurrency acquired through fraud, a path was found to flow back into the criminal organization through money laundering. Conclusion: In the case of pig murder fraud crimes that have been detected as a danger worldwide, the scale will be even wider. Therefore, various institutional supplements and policies should be prepared through crime type analysis in Korea for crime prevention and countermeasures.

본 연구는 재래흑돼지와 일반 개량종 돼지 삼겹의 관능적 특성을 비교, 분석하여 재래흑돼지에 대한 기초자료를 얻고자 실시하였다. 일반 조명 아래에서 가열육의 관능검사를 실시했을 경우 맛, 풍미, 조직감, 다즙성, 종합적 기호도 모두 일반 개량종 돼지 삼겹에서 가장 높게 나타났으나 붉은 조명 아래에서 생시체중이 75 kg인 재래흑돼지 삼겹에서 가장 높게 나타났다. 하지만 조명에 관계없이 생시체중이 56 kg인 재래흑돼지 삼겹에서는 가장 낮게 나타났다. 그리고 일반 조명 아래 신선육의 육안판별을 실시했을 경우 육색, 지방색, 마블링, 종합적 기호도 모두 일반 개량종 돼지 삼겹에서 가장 높게 나타났으며, 생시체중이 56 kg인 재래흑돼지 삼겹에서는 가장 낮게 나타났다. 이 결과를 통해 지방 유무를 판단하기 어려운 붉은 조명에서 재래흑돼지육의 관능점수가 높았기 때문에 결론적으로 지방에 대한 소비자들의 편견이 있음을 알 수 있다.

A 4-week-old male piglet being maintained in a research facility was found dead without any previous clinical signs. The piglet had been born from a surrogate mother after somatic nuclear transfer as part of a xenotransplantation study. Ovaries for nuclear transfer were obtained from a private farm outside the research facility. Histopathologically, multifocal to coalescing granulomatous myocarditis was observed in the heart, characterized by infiltration of lymphocytes, macrophages and multinucleated giant cells, and by myocardial necrosis and fibrosis. Lymphoid tissues showed marked lymphoid depletion with infiltration by histiocytes or giant cells. Immunohistochemistry showed PCV-2 antigens in necrotic myocytes, macrophages and multinucleated giant cells in the heart, as well as in macrophages and giant cells in lymphoid depleted areas of lymphoid tissues. Reproductive failure associated with PCV-2 in aborted or stillborn piglets is frequently characterized by myocarditis, and similar lesions were observed in this 4-week-old piglet with PCV-2 infection. The PCV-2 infection in this piglet may have been due to contamination or infection of an ovary from the pig farm.

Background: It is currently thought that tissue valve degeneration is related to an animal's immune response, which is mainly due to cell surface ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes. Cell surface ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes are known to be degraded by the enzyme called green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase. It is also well known that ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes are immunologically stained by Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin type B4. We know that many commercially available tissue valves are made of aortic valves and pericardial tissue of pig. So, we investigated whether ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes of the aortic valve and pericardial tissue of a pig can be removed by green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase, and we did so by comparing immunologic staining of the tissues before and after the enzyme treatment. Material and method: After treating fresh porcine aortic valve and pericardial tissue with green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase at concentrations of 0.5 unit/mL, 1.0 unit/mL, 2.0 unit/mL, respectively, under the condition of pH 6.5, temperature. $4^{\circ}C$ and 24 hours of incubation, each sample was stained with Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin type B4 immunpfluorescent labeling. We then examined whether the ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes were reduced or abolished in each consecutive. concentration of green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase by comparing the degree of the Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin B4 staining in each sample. Result: In the pig aortic valve tissue, a 1.0 unit/mL concentration of green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase at pH 6.5, $4^{\circ}C$ and reaction for 24 hours was enough for complete removal of ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes from the cell sur face on the immunostaining with Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin B4. On the other hand, more ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes were present in the pig pericardial tissue on Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin B4 staining before the enzyme treatment, and 1.0 unit/mL of galactosidase was not sufficient for complete removal of ${\alpha}$-Gal from the tissue. 2.0 units/mL of green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase was needed to completely remove the ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes from the pericardial tissue on immunostaining. Conclusion: The ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes of the pig's aortic valve and pericardial tissue were successfully stained with Griffonia Simplicifolia isolectin B4. We could remove nearly all the ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes using green coffee bean ${\alpha}$-Galactosidase at the concentration of 1.0 unit/mL in the aortic valve. Of pig, and 2.0 unit/mL was need to nearly completely remove all the ${\alpha}$-Gal epitopes in the pericardial tissue of pig under the condition of pH 6.5, $4^{\circ}C$ and 24 hours of reaction time. In the near future, removal of ${\alpha}$-Gal epitapes in the pig's aortic valve and pericardial tissue will become a powerful tool for the improvement of the tissue valve durability. It needs to be determined if ${\alpha}$-galactosidase treated pig tissue is immune to human anti-Gal antibody or anit-Gal mooclonal antibodies.

Jerusalem artichoke is often stored poorly after harvesting due to its delicate skin. For this reason, Jerusalem artichoke is mainly distributed in the market as a dried material. In order to improve utilization of dried Jerusalem artichoke, we made Jangachi and analyzed physiochemical characteristics with raw Jerusalem artichoke Jangachi during storage. Raw Jerusalem artichoke was sliced into 7 and 10 mm slices and dried in hot air. After aging, we analyzed rehydration capacity, pH, hardness, salinity, sugar content, and fructan content of both. Dried Jerusalem artichoke sliced into 10 mm slices took over twice as long (420 min) to be rehydrated over 90% than 7 mm sliced (200 min) Jerusalem artichoke. In the case of raw Jerusalem artichoke, hardness showed a tendency to decline. Relatively, hardness of dried Jerusalem artichoke was measured consistently. After 4 weeks, salinity and sugar content were 3.63% and $41.23^{\circ}Brix$ in raw Jerusalem artichoke Jangachi, 3.47% and $37.05^{\circ}Brix$ in 7 mm dried Jerusalem artichoke, and 3.77% and $39.15^{\circ}Brix$ in 10 mm dried sample, respectively. As a result of this study, the possibility of dried Jerusalem artichoke as a pickle was confirmed.
