A semi-empirical organic schottky diode model is proposed for circuit simulation. We have set up a full custom design environment for organic schottky diode circuit using Spectre AHDL, which is widely used commercial EDA tool. We measured frequency response from fabricated rectifier, and it was compared to circuit simulation results using the AHDL model. The frequency response of the fabricated rectifier circuit is not sufficient for 13.56MHz RFID, however, it is enough for 135kHz-band RFID.

The effectiveness of sodium carboxymethylcellulose (SCMC) and deztran in the prevention of adhesion formation on the uterus and embryo collection in rabbits was elucidated. Following induction of adhesion on uterus and uterine horns by abrasion and retrograde flushing of embryos in gonadotropins primed rabbits, the solutions of saline (for control), 1% SCMC, 10% dextran and a synthetic solution of 1% SCNC and 10% dextran in saline were infused in the abdominal cavity at the dose of 5 ml/kg of body weight. The average percentage of adhesion was 11.1, 28.6, 41.7 and 73.3% in the rabbits infused with the synthetic, 1% SCMC, 10% dextran and saline solutions, respectively. The synthetic solution was more effective than other solutions in the rabbits. The average number and recovery rate of embryos were significantly (P<0.01) higher in the synthetic solution group than 1% SCMC, 10% dextran or saline solution groups. Among the collected embryos in the groups, the distribution of the normal embryos was higher in the synthetic solution group (99%) and the 10% dextran solution group (95.7%) than the 1% SCMC solution group (78.4%) and saline (66.2%). Theretore, a synthetic solution which is combined with 1% SCMC and 10% deztran in saline can be effectively used for the prevention of adhesion formation after uterine surgery and embryo collection.

A combined anesthesia in terms of balanced anesthesia has been widely used for enhancement of anesthetic potency, decrement of dosage, reduction of side effects and better muscle relaxation. Recently, tiletamine/zolazepam (T/Z) has been widely used for the general anesthesia in dogs, but there have been few studies on balanced anesthesia of this drug in combination with other drugs. In this experiment, the combinations of T/Z with acepromazine or fentanyl/xylazine/azaperone (F/X/A) have been compared for the anesthetic effects in dogs. Healthy 5 mongrel dogs were allocated into three treatment groups ; Group Z (atropine + T/Z), Group A + Z (atropine/acepromazine + T/Z) in runs of 10 replication. The rapid induction of anesthesia was shown in all three treatment groups. The maintenance time of anesthesia was significanty increased to 101.4$\pm$6.2 minutes (44 min. more than that of group Z) in Group A + Z and 127.4$\pm$4.7 minutes (70 min. more than that of group Z) in Group F + Z, respectively. The recovery from anesthesia was rapid in Group F + Z. In blood analysis, there was no significant variation in three groups but hyperglycemia in Group F + Z. These results indicate that the balanced anesthesia of T/Z with F/X/A was superior to other two methods for maintaining and recovering from the anesthesia, and could be applied for general anesthesia in dogs.

The efficiency of transgenic livestock animal production may be improved by early selection of transgenci preimplantation embryos. To examine the possibility of GFP gene as a non-invasive marker for the early screening of transgenic embryo, the GFP gene was microinjected into rabbit zygotes and the later stages of preimplantation embryos were examined for the expression of GFP. The presence of injected DNA was detected by PCR analysis and the expression of GFP was detected by observing green fluorescence in embryos under a fluorescent microscope. Out of 108 GFP gene-injected rabbit zygotes, seventy three(67.6%) were fluorescence-positive. When 11 fluroresecence-positive blastocysts were analyzed for the presence of GFP gene by PCR, 6(54.5%) were positive, and all of the 8 flrouescence-negative blastocysts were also negative by PCR. The results indicate that the screening of transgene in rabbit embryos by PCR analysis and GFP detection could be a promising method for the preselection of transgenic embryos.

The nuclear transplantation technique is known as the most potential and efficient method for producing large numbers of genetically identical animals from a single embryo and somatic cells. After Dolly was introduced in 1997, many scientists were amazed. A possibility came to a reality that live offspring could be produced with differentiated somatic cells from an adult animal. On the other side, many in the press and the sensationalists focused on the socially, ethically and scientifically unacceptable sides of the technology. In this article, the history, current status and prospects of the technological development of nuclear transplantation in mammals and its application to the production of cloned animals are described. For the efficient and successful production of cloned embryos by nuclear transplantation, the right selection, preactivation and micromanipulation of oocytes as capacious recipient cytoplasm, the adequate and benefitial preparation of multiple totipotent embryonic and somatic cells as donor nuclei, fusion of them and in vitro production of cloned embryos are very critical. Recently the overall efficiency of production of cloned embryos and offspring in livestock has been much improved. Cloning will also be a more efficient, faster and useful way of creating transgenic fetuses for gene therapies, gene pharming, organs for xenotransplantation by preselection and mass production of transgenic embryos and consequently improving the production efficiency in transgenic animals. Further technical development of nuclear transplantation will enable large-scale production of cloned livestock and in near future the commercial cloning of animals will become a reality.

A 15-year-old, castrated male shih-tzu dog was referred to Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Gyeongsang National University due to dyspnea, anorexia, depression of 1 week's duration. On thoracic radiography, triangular shaped soft tissue opacity mass presented in the left cranial lung lobe region. On computed tomography, there was a $3.8{\times}2.5$ cm mass in the left thoracic cavity, which was lobulated and adhered to ventral pleural surface. Histopathologically, the neoplastic cell population consisted of a lot of lymphocytes and a few of Hassal's corpuscles. The immunohistochemistry, lymphocytes were diffusely positive for CD3 and focal positive $CD79{\alpha}$. Based on gross, histologic, and immunohistochemical findings, the neoplasm was diagnosed a lymphocyte predominant thymoma.

The magnetic polishing is the useful method to finish using magnetic power of magnet. This method is one of precision polishing techniques and has an aim of the clean technology using for the pure of gas and inside of the clean pipe for transportation. The magnetic abrasive polishing method is not so common for machine that it tis not spreaded widely. There are rarely researcher in this field because of non-effectiveness of magnetic abrasive. Therefore, in ths paper deals with development of the magnetic abrasive using sludge. In this development, abrasive grain WA and GC used to resin bond fabricated low temperature. And magnetic material was fabricated from the sludge which were crused into 200 mesh and average diameter ${\o}$1.2mm ball type. The XRD analysis result show that only WA and GC abrasive and sludge crystal peaks detected which explains resin bond was not any more chemical reaction. From SEM analysis it tis found that WA and GC abrasive and sludge were stron bonding with each other by bond.

The effect of grain size on corrosion resistance and high temperature oxidation behavior was studied in 22Cr-15Ni-5W super austenitic stainless steels for desulfurization equipment as a heat power station. In the high temperature oxidation test, oxidation rate was increased as the temperature increased from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. In vapor, oxidation rate was faster than that in air. Because the vapor was inhibited nucleation of $Cr_2O_3$ film. And the high temperature oxidation resistance at $600^{\circ}C{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ was excellent from all specimens and specimen of the smallest grain size was the most excellent. Because increasing of diffusion course through the grain-boundary was promoted nucleation and growth of $Cr_2O_3$ film. In the test temperature at $600^{\circ}C{\sim}800^{\circ}C$, Cr rich round particle oxide was formed in air, whereas Fe rich needle type oxide was developed in vapor.

This study was conducted to improve the production efficiency of in vitro produced (IVP) embryos in Korean Native cows. The optimal conditions and procedures for in vitro maturation(IVM), in vitro fertilization(IVF) and in vitro culture(IVC) of bovine follicular oocytes and IVP embryos were evaluated. Immature follicular oocytes were collected fiom the follicles of bovine ovaries obtained from abattoirs. The oocytes of Grade I and II for IVM were cocultured with monolayered bovine oviductal epithelial cells(BOEG) or granulosa cells in TCM-199 solution supplemented with follicle stimulating hormone, lutenizing hormone, estradiol-17$\beta$ and heat inactivated fetal calf serum at 39$^{\circ}C$ under 5% $CO_2$ in air for 14 to 24 hours. Most of the oocytes(93%) matured to metaphase II in 24 hours. The cocultured IVM oocytes were fertilized in vitro at significantly(P<0.05) higher rate with BOEC(83.8%) and with granulosa cells(84.6%) than the non-cocultured IVM oocytes(73.6%). The IVM-IVF embryos developed to morula and blastocyst at significantly(P<0.05) higher rate in coculture with BOEC(41.2%) than with granulosa cells(23.1%) or conditioned medium(23.4%).
