The antimicrobial drug susceptibility of 439 isolates of animal pathogens recovered from various clinical cases during 1978-79 has been investigated by the use of disk diffusion technique. The majority of 308 strains of Eschericihia coli were highly resistant to bacitracin, erythromycin, penicillin, streptomycin and tetracyclinon while only 0.3 per cent of them were resistant to gentamicin and 3.2 per cent to colistin. The percentages of strains resistant to ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol and neomycin were 30.5%, 24.7%, 11:4%, 28.2% and 26.2% and repectively. However, none of E. coli cultures of ovine origin were resistant to ampicillin, carbenicillin, chloramphenicol, colistin, gentamicin, kanamycin, and neomycin. A total of 39 patterns of multipe drug1 resistance of 308 strains E. coli against 9 drugs in general use such as ampicillin, cephalothin, chloramphenicol, colistin, gentamicin, kanamycin, neomycin, streptomycin and tetracycline were observed and the most common multiple resistance patterns were SM, TC pattern (20.5%) and AM, CP, KM, NM, SM, TC pattern (9.7%). None of the 43 cultures of salmonella organism from pigs and chickens were resistant to ampicillin, carbenicillin, cephalothin, colistin, gentamicin and kanamycin; and the majority of the cultures were susceptible to chloramphenicol (90.0%), neomycin (97.7%) and tetracycline (93.0%). All the cultures were found to be resistant to bacitracin and penicillin and the rate of resistant strains to erythromycin and s treptomycin being 79.1% and 41.9% respectively. It was found that the majority of 63 cultures of staphylococcal isolates were resistant to lincomycin, penicillin, streptomycin and tetracycline. The percentages of 63 staphylococcal isolates susceptible to gentamicin, nitrofurantoin, cephalothin, ampicillin, methicillin, bacitracin and chloramphenicol were 98.4%, 98.4%, 95.2%, 93.7%, 93.7%, 92.1% and 92.1% respectively. The 25 cultures of streptococcal isolates were resistant in order of prevalence to streptomycin(88.0%), kanamycin(68.0%), gentamicin (44.0%), tetracycline (44.0%) and methicillin (40.0%) wihle the majority of them were sensitive to ampicillin, bacitracin, chloramphenicol and penicillin.

Yoga has been known to have stimulatory or inhibitory effects on the metabolic parameters and to be uncomplicated therapy for obesity. The purpose of the present study was to test the effect of an 8-week of yoga-asana training on body composition, lipid profile, and insulin resistance (IR) in obese adolescent boys. Twenty volunteers with body mass index (BMI) greater than the 95th percentile were randomly assigned to yoga (age $14.7{\pm}0.5$ years, n=10) and control groups (age $14.6{\pm}1.0$ years, n=10). The yoga group performed exercises three times per week at 40~60% of heart-rate reserve (HRR) for 8 weeks. IR was determined with the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). After yoga training, body weight, BMI, fat mass (FM), and body fat % (BF %) were significantly decreased, and fat-free mass and basal metabolic rate were significantly increased than baseline values. FM and BF % were significantly improved in the yoga group compared with the control group (p<0.05). Total cholesterol (TC) was significantly decreased in the yoga group (p<0.01). HDL-cholesterol was decreased in both groups (p<0.05). No significant changes were observed between or within groups for triglycerides, LDL-cholesterol, glucose, insulin, and HOMA-IR. Our findings show that an 8-week of yoga training improves body composition and TC levels in obese adolescent boys, suggesting that yoga training may be effective in controlling some metabolic syndrome factors in obese adolescent boys.

Accurate measurements of the microwave surface resistance (Rs) of high temperature superconductor (HTS) films are important with regard to applications of HTS materials for wireless communications. As the surface resistance values of HTS films are usually extracted from the measured unloaded quality factor ($Q_0$) of resonators made of HTS films, it is essential to measure the resonator $Q_0$ with accuracy. The $TE_{011}\;mode\;Q_0$ of sapphire resonators with the endplates made of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$(YBCO) film on $LaAlO_3$ is measured by using the S-parameter circle-fit method at a frequency of about 19.6 GHz and temperatures of 30 K to 90 K, which is compared with the measured values by using the Lorentzian-fit method. Good agreements are found between the two sets of $Q_0$ values measured by using the two different methods whether the resonator is used in a weak-coupling scheme or a strong-coupling scheme, showing reliability of both methods fur measuring the resonator $Q_0$ accurately. The $Q_0$ of sapphire resonators with a gap between the top plate and the rest of the resonator is also discussed.

PTC thermistor are characterized by an increase in the electrical resistance with temperature. The PTC materials of middle Curie point were produced or that of high Curie point (above $200^{\circ}C$), it was determined that compositional modifications of $Pb^{2+}$ for $Ba^{2+}$ produce change sin the Curie point to higher temperature. PTC ceramic materials with the Curie point above $120^{\circ}C$ were prepared by adding $PbTiO_3$, PbO or $Pb_3O_4$ into $BaTiO_3$. Thereby, adding $Pb^{2+}$ into $BaTiO_3$-based PTC material to improve Tc was studied broadly, however, weal know that PbO was poisonous and prone to volatilize, then to pollute the circumstance and hurt to people, so we should dope other innocuous additives instead of lead to increase Tc of composite PTC material. In order to prepare lead-free $BaTiO_3$-based PTC with middle Curie point, the incorporation on $Bi_{1/2}K_{1/2}TiO_3$ into $BaTiO_3$-based ceramics was investigated on samples containing 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 50mol% of $Bi_{1/2}K_{1/2}TiO_3$. $Bi_{1/2}K_{1/2}TiO_3$ was compounded as standby material by conventional solid-state reaction technique. The starting materials were $Bi_2O_3$, $K_2CO_3$, $BaCO_3$ and $TiO_2$ powder, and using solid-state reaction method, too. The microstructures of samples were investigated by SEM, DSC, XRD and dielectric properties. Phase composition and lattice parameters were investigated by X-ray diffraction.

This paper deals with the distribution, reservoir and mode of spread of infection on 6 hatcheries in Taegu, Kyungpook and 5 broiler farms in Kyungpook during the period from June 1991 to June 1992. Isolated Salmonella were examined for serotypes, biotyping of Salmonella(S) typhimurtum, antibiotic susceptibility and some biochemical characteristics. Forty two Salmonella strains were isolated from 42(2.7% of 1,577 caecal samples of chicks, and their serotypes were S typhimurium 10, S typhimurium var Copenhagen 5, S infantis 4, S thompson 3, and untypable 20. The isolation rate of Salmonella varied from 0 to 5.1% in 6 hatcheries and that of Salmonella from 5 broiler farms was 10. 5%. Biotypes of 10 S typhimurium and 5 S typhimurium var Copenhagen strains isolated from chicks of hatcheries and broiler farms were biotype 2(86.6%), 8(6.7%), and 10a(6.7%), and 26i(6.7%) according to Duguid's scheme. Antibiotic susceptibility test of Salmonella isolated were performed by agar dilution method, using 9 antibiotics as follows: ampicillin(Am), chloramphenicol(Cm), gentamicin(Gm), kanamycin(Km), nalidixic acid(Na), rifampicin(Rf), streptomycin(Sm), sulfadimethoxine(Su), and tetracycline(Tc), All the strains were sensitive to RF. But 8 strans(23.8%) were resistant to one or more drugs and the most common resistance patterns of transferred R plasmids were SmSuGm and SmSu. Among 42 isolates, one had transferable citrate utilizing plasmid. S typhimurium and S typhimurium var copenhagen strains were resistant to killing by 90% normal guinea pig serum.

The objective was to investigate the hypoglycemic action of catalpol in spontaneous diabetes db/db mice. 40 db/db mice were randomly divided into five groups: model control gourp; db/db plus catalpol 40, 80, 120 mg/kg body wt. groups and db/db plus metformin 250 mg/kg group. Age-matched db/m mice were selected as normal control group. The mice were administered with corresponding drugs or solvent by gavage for 4 weeks. The oral glucose tolerance test was carried out at the end of $3^{rd}$ week. After 4 weeks of treatment, the concentrations of fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycated serum protein (GSP), insulin (INS), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC) and adiponection (APN) in serum were detected. The protein expressions of phosphorylation-$AMPK{\alpha}$1/2 in liver, phosphorylation-$AMPK{\alpha}$1/2 and glucose transporter-4 (GLUT-4) in skeletal muscle and adipose tissues were detected by western blot. Real time RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) and Hydroxymethyl glutaric acid acyl CoA reductase (HMGCR) in liver. Our results showed that catalpol could significantly improve the insulin resistance, decrease the serum concentrations of INS, GSP, TG, and TC. The concentrations of APN in serum, the protein expression of phosphorylation-$AMPK{\alpha}$1/2 in liver, phosphorylation-$AMPK{\alpha}$1/2 and GLUT-4 in peripheral tissue were increased. Catalpol could also down regulate the mRNA expressions of ACC and HMGCR in liver. In conclusion, catalpol ameliorates diabetes in db/db mice. It has benefit effects against lipid/glucose metabolism disorder and insulin resistance. The mechanism may be related to up-regulating the expression of phosphorylation-$AMPK{\alpha}$1/2.

본 연구의 목적은 내당능장애를 유도한 쥐들을 대상으로 다른 운동 강도의 지구성 및 저항성 운동을 중재하여 당뇨관련 혈액인자들에 미치는 영향을 비교 분석하는데 있다. 37주령 C57BL/6 쥐 54마리를 (1) 일반식이대조군(CO, n=9), (2) 내당능장애군(IGT, n=9), (3) 내당능장애 + VO_2max 50% 지구성운동군(IGT50A, n=9), (4) 내당능장애 + VO_2max 75% 지구성운동군(IGT75A, n=9), (5) 내당능장애 + 1RM의 50% 저항성운동군(IGT50R, n=9), 그리고 (6) 내당능장애 + 1RM의 75% 저항성운동군(IGT75R, n=9)으로 분류하였다. 지구성 운동 프로그램은 동물 실험용 트레드밀을 사용하여 주5일, 1일 40분씩 8주간 트레드밀운동을 실시하였다. 저항성 운동은 주5일 8주간 사다리 저항 운동을 반복사이 2분간의 휴식을 주어 총 8번의 Climbing을 실시하였다. 운동 프로그램 후 인슐린은 통계적으로 모든 그룹간의 차이가 없었다. 공복 혈당은 대조군보다 IGT 유도군들에서 통계적으로 유의하게 높게 나타났으며, 운동군들간의 차이는 없었으나 IGT군이 IGT75R군에 비해 유의하게 높은 수치를 보였다. HOMA-IR은 대조군과 IGT군에서만 유의한 차이를 보였다. 당화혈색소 검사에서는 IGT군이 다른 모든 집단들에 비해 높은 수치를 보였으며, IGT75A군과 IGT50R군에서 유의한 차이를 보였다. 총 콜레스테롤은 대조군이 내당능장애 유도군들과 비교하여 유의하게 낮은 수치를 보여주었다. 반면 중성지방은 그룹간의 차이가 없었다. HDL-C는 지구성 운동군들이 대조군과 IGT군에 비해 유의하게 높은 수치를 보였으나 저항성 운동군들과의 차이는 없었다. LDL-C는 대조군이 IGT군과 운동군들에 비해 유의하게 낮은 수치를 보였으며, IGT75A군은 IGT군과 IGT50R군에 비해 낮은 수치를 보였다. 결론적으로 75%의 저항성 운동은 혈당에 보다 긍정적인 영향을 주었으며, 75%의 지구성 운동은 당화혈색소와 LDL-C의 감소에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 지구성 운동은 저항성 운동에 비해 HDL-C의 증가에 보다 효과적임을 보여주었다.
