This study was carried out to investigate reproductive traits and sex hormone levels by growth in Korean native goats. Serum levels of FSH, LH, prolactin, estradiol-$17{\beta}$ and progesterone were determined every 15 days from the 70 days of age to 190 days by radioimmunoassay. The age and weight at sexual maturity were 183.6 days and 14.3 kg; the length of estrous cycle and estrus period were 20.3 days and 36.7 hours, respectively. The gestation period, litter size and body weight at birth were 148.4 days, 1.4 head and 1.8 kg, respectively. The levels of serum LH were highest with 3.93 mIU/ml at 70 days of age, thereafter decreased gradually to 1.21 mIU/ml at 190 days of age. The concentrations of FSH in serum were below 1.25 mIU/ml throughout the experimental period. The levels of prolactin were lowest with 3.09ng/ml at 85 days of age and highest with 4.65 ng/ml at 175 days of age. The serum levels of estradiol-$17{\beta}$ were increased with age, thus highest with 7.95 pg/ml at 190 days of age. The serum progesterone concentrations were maintained low levels (below 1.0 ng/ml) throughout the experimental period.

This study assesses of efficiency of oocyte recovery and in vitro development for during the non breeding season in goat. Thirty-four matured goats, maintained in a pen under natural day length and fed hay ad libitum, were pretreated with progestagen implanted CIDR for 10 days. Superovulation treatment of the goats received twice daily intramuscular injections of a total of 70 mg FSH for 3 days from Day 8 of CIDR. All the gonadotropin treated goats were injected with 10 mg $PGF_2{\alpha}$ on Day 8 and 400~600 IU hCG in the afternoon on Day 10. Oocytes were recovered by follicle aspiration or oviduct flushing at 35 to 40 h after hCG injection through mid-ventral incision. The in vivo matured oocytes were activated by ionomycin (5 min) and 6-DMAP (3.5~4 h). The activated oocytes were cultured in mSOF medium containing 0.8% BSA at $38.5^{\circ}C$ in an atmosphere of 5% $CO_2$, 5% $O_2$, 90% $N_2$ for 7~8 days. There was no significant difference in the mean number of CL and in vivo matured and follicular oocytes recovered. But, quality of I+II grade follicular oocytes was lower (p<0.05) in the prepubertal goat (25.0%) than the adults (52.4%). The same results were also observed in the cleavage and blastocyst rate of activated oocytes. The clavage and blastocyst rate from prepubertal derived oocytes were lower (p<0.05) in the prepubertal goat (54.5%, 23.3%) than the adult goat (86.8%, 46.6%). Considering overall these results, we suggest that maturation of donor goats is a major factor affecting recovered oocytes quality and in vitro development of activated goat oocytes. There was no significant difference in oocyte quality between seasonal treatments.

Korean native goats were used for meat production test, and summarized resalts are as follows. 1. The amounts of feed consumed for Korean Native Goat were significantly higher at day than at night. 2. The feed intake was decreased and live weight gain was lower for the summer period. 3. The concentrate consumption was increased when poor quality of pasture and native grass. 4. Compared between single bran feeding group$(T_2)$ and mixed grain feeding group$(T_3)$, the roughage consumption were similar in both groups. 5. By the use of feeding standard for feeding of Korean Native Goat, the feed convertion of T.D.N, D.C.P, and M. E were decreased. 6. It is necessary to periodically protect from contamination parasitic such like stomach worm, liver flack, nodula worm disease and coccidiosis. 7. The carcass rates of goat at 11-12 months age were higher in $T_3$ feeding group as 44.56% compared with $T_2$ feeding group as 42.17% and tethering group as 35.1% and also the dressed carcass percentage were 33.89%, 30.25% and 29.92% respectively. 8. By increasing the amouat concentrate feeds, fat content in muscle was increased but moisture and ash contents were decreased. 9. The fat caused unacceptable flavour was about 4 percent of total dressed goat meat. 10. Among the spices, clove and pepper were better to improved meat flavour for sausage and can meat processing 11. It was known that the quality of goat meat was suitable for meat processing.

Pancreases obtained from native Korean goats were used, and examined by immunoelectron microscopy using several antisera. Five types cells, glucagon (A), insulin (B), somatostatin (D), and pancreatic polypeptide (PP-I and PP-II) cells, were identified in the pancreatic islets. The morphologies of A, B, and D cells corresponded to the typical charateristics described in previous reports on other mammals. Serotonin immunoreactivity was observed in the D cells on the basis of the granular profiles. Two types of PP cells could be distinguished on the basis of the granular profile: the first type was formed by round, homogeneous secretory granules ($220{\sim}400nm$) having a narrow halo between the dense core and limiting membrane, while the other type consisted of cells whose secretory granules ($240{\sim}440\;nm$ in the major axis, $150{\sim}200nm$ in the minor axis) were pleomorphic, having a dense core and a closely fitting limiting membrane. From these results, we suggest that the pancreatic islets of the native Korean goat consist of five types of endocrine cells, A, B, D, PP-I and PP-II cells. Among these, PP-I type cells may correspond to the classical PP of other mammalian pancreases, while PP-II type cells may correspond to the enterochromaffin cells in other species.

This study was carried out to isolate and characterize the glycomacropeptide (GMP) prepared from cow's milk and Korean native goat's milk and to examine the effects of their tryptic hydrolysates on inhibition of platelet aggregation in an in vitro experiment. The GMP derived from Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo migrated at 20 KDa. Sialic acid contents in skim milk of Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo were $36.86{\pm}2.36$, $37.98{\pm}1.27$ and $31.19{\pm}1.87{\mu}g/mg$, respectively. Tyrosine was detected in both bovine and caprine GMP. The in vitro inhibition rate of platelet agregation by tryptic hydrolysates of Holstein, Korean native goat and Hanwoo GMP were 4.02, 5.51 and 12.77%, respectively at reaction time 30 seconds. The inhibition of platelet aggregation by tryptic hydrolysates of bovine and caprine GMP are increased with increasing reaction time. The platelets staining revealed higher counts of platelets after the addition of GMP hydrolysates; however addition of ADP reduced the platelet count within 30 seconds and the platelets were not detected after 120 seconds. The results of this study indicate that tryptic hydrolysates of bovine and caprine GMP contain some small peptides with platelet aggregation inhibition properties. Further research on these lines may help prevent platelet aggregation related abnomalities in human.
