Prunus mume has been used as a Korean medicine. It is effective in treating diarrhea and an abdominal pain. This experiment was carried out to optimize extraction conditions of prunus mume flower tea and to analyze volatile compounds. Three kinds of samples treated with fresh, freeze dry, and shade dry, were used, and prunus mum flower tea was manufactured by the mixed ratio of green tea and prunus mume flower. The result was valued by the Hunter's value, flavor and taste. The optimum conditions of extraction time and temperature were 3 min and $80^{\circ}C$ respectively. Sensory evaluation shows that optimum ratio was adaptive 90% green tea with 10% prunus mume flower. The major volatile compound in prunus mume flower was benzaldehyde.

Conventional physical activity monitoring systems, which use accelerometers, global positioning system (GPS), heartbeats, or body temperature information, showed limited performances due to their own restrictions on measurement environment and measurable activity types. To overcome these limitations, we developed a portable exercise analysis system that can analyze aerobic exercises as well as isotonic exercises. For bioelectric signal acquisition during exercise, waist belt with two body contact electrodes was used. For exercise analysis, the measured signals were firstly divided into two signal groups with different frequency ranges which can represent respiration related signal and muscular motion related signal, respectively. After then, power values, differential of power values, and median frequency values were selected for feature values. Selected features were used as inputs of support vector machine (SVM) to classify the exercise types. For verification of statistical significance, ANOVA and multiple comparison test were performed. The experimental results showed 100% accuracy for classification of aerobic exercise and isotonic resistance exercise. Also, classification of aerobic exercise, isotonic resistance exercise, and hybrid types of exercise revealed 92.7% of accuracy.

Liparis ingens (Gilbert et Burke) is a demersal fish belonging to Liparidae, widely distributed in the coastal waters of the east coast of Korea. On January 16, 1986, mature adults of Liparis ingens were captured by a demersal gill net near Chongdongchin-ri, Kangwon-do, Korea. The authors stripped eggs and milt, and fertilized on the ship. The eggs were incubated and the larvae were reared in laboratory. The eggs of this species are demersal and adhesive, and are pale yellow, containing many oil globules. Egg diameters were varied from 1.55 to 1.65 mm. The hatching took place in ca. 747 hours after fertilization at the water temperature of $7.09{\sim}10.99^{\circ}C$ and salinity $30.62{\sim}33.98\%0$. The newly hatched larvae were elongate in shape and $4.40{\sim}4.85mm$ in total length with $12{\sim}13$ (abdominal)+40(caudal)=$52{\sim}53$ myomeres. Many melanophores were distributed on the lower jaw, pectoral fins, yolk sac, and ventral line of the tail part. Three days after hatching, the larvae reached 5.15 to 5.25 mm in total length, and the yolk sac was almost absorbed. Some melanophores appeared on the back of auditory vesicles. Seven days after hatching, the larvae attained $5.75{\sim}5.85mm$ in total length.

We evaluated the efficacy of $\beta$-hemolytic Streptococcus(S.) iniae vaccine on cultured olive flounder. Three hundred flounders(weight $50{\pm}5$ g) were obtained from two farm at Wando and Taean in the southern and western coast of Korea at May and June 2007, respectively. Twenty of flounders moved in 0.5 tons aquaria in land-marine tank system of National Veterinary Research and Quarantine Service. Seawater was transported from the sea of Inchon in western Korea, and water temperature maintained to $22^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$ during the vaccination and challenge test, respectively. We used the formalin-inactivated $\beta$-hemolytic S. iniae vaccine produced by domestic manufacturers. The vaccine was intraperitoneally administered to fish. The vaccinated and control group were challenged with intraperitoneal injection by virulent S. iniae SI-36 isolates with $5.0{\times}10^8$ CFU/fish at 3 weeks after vaccination. We evaluated the vaccine efficacy by calculating numbers of dead fish, and observing of clinical signs, exterior and gross lesions, and examining bacteria isolation and identification. Thirty-four(25.2%) of 135 control and vaccinated group fish were dead with serious anemia, abdominal extension, and hernia of intestine during 3 weeks post vaccination. We isolated Neoheterobothrium hirame from the buccal cavity and Edwardsiella tarda from kidney of dead and diseased fish. When infected fish with these agents were challenged with S. iniae SI-36 isolates, the cumulative mortality of control and vaccinated group were 86.7, and 46.7%, respectively. However, significant differences(p<0.05) were observed on cumulative mortality between control(20.0%) and vaccinated group(95.0%) at second trials with 40 healthy, and relative percent survival(RPS) was 78.0%. We confirmed that the efficacy of $\beta$-hemolytic S. iniae vaccine on olive flounder were impacted by health condition such as bacterial and parasitic diseases.

Gulbi were processed by salting Yellow corvenia (Pseudosciaena manchurica) with in three ways: the dry salting method with bar salt, the dry salting method with purified salt or with the abdominal brine injection method with purified salt. The half of the sample was dried by the control system of temperature and humidity; the other part was dried by the natural condition. The moisture content of fresh Yellow corvenia muscle and eggs were 76.8%, and 68.2% while those of dried samples decreased to 57.7% and 45.3%, respectively. The total nitrogen content of fresh muscle and eggs were 11.0g% and 7.6g%, respectively (dry weight basis), which decreased slightly during salting and showed no significant changes during drying prosess. The protein nitrogen content of fresh muscle and eggs were 10.2g% and 7.5g%, which decreased during Gulbi processing. On the other hand, the nonprotein nitrogen content of both muscle and eggs increased. The content of free amino acids of fresh muscle and eggs were 508.8mg/100g and 1,110.6mg/100g, which increased to between 5.3 and 2.7 times, respectively after 25 days of drying. The composition patterns of free amino acids in muscle and eggs were similar to each other. The four amino acids - Ala, Glu, Lys and Leu - were most abundant in both fresh and dried samples. These amino acids are known as taste and flavour constituents.

Mechanical obstruction of the common hepatic duct includes the following causes ; choledocholithiasis, sclerosis, cholangitis, pancreatic carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, postoperative stricture, primary hepatic duct carcinoma, enlarged cystic duct lymph nodes, and metastatic nodal involvement of the porta hepatis. Partial mechanical obstruction of the common hepatic duct caused by impaction of stones and inflammation surrounding the vicinity of the neck of the gallbladder had been reported on the "syndrome del conducto hepatico" in 1948 by Mirizzi. Nowadays, this disease was named by Mirizzi syndrome. Mirizzi syndrome is a rare entity of common hepatic duct obstruction that results from an inflammatory response secondary to a gallstone impacted in the cystic duct or neck of the gallbladder. It results from an almost parallel course and low insertion of the cystic duct into the common hepatic duct. In a varient of Mirizzi's syndrome, the cause of the common hepatic duct obstruction was a primary cystic duct carcinoma rather than gallstone disease. A 71-year-old man was admitted with a four-day history of right upper quadrant abdominal pain. Past medical history was unremarkable. On physical examination, the patient had a temperature of $38^{\circ}C$, icteric sclera and right upper quadrant tenderness. Pertinent laboratory findings included WBC 18,000/$cm^2$;albumin 2.6g/dl(normal 3.9-5.1) ; SGOT 183u/L(normal 0-50) ; SGPT167u/L(normal 0-65) ; bilirubin, 8.2mg/dl(normal 0-1) with the direct bilirubin, 4.4mg/dl(normal 0-0.4). Ultrasonography revealed a dilated extrahepatic biliary tree. ERCP showed that the superior margin was angular and more consistent with a calculus causing partial CHD obstruction(Mirizzi syndrome). At surgery a diseased gallbladder containing calculi was found. In addition, there was two calculi partially eroding through the proximal portion of the cystic duct and compressing the common hepatic duct. A cholecystectomy and excision of common bile duct was performed, with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy. The postoperative course was uneventful.

The mass mortality of Korean rockfish, Sebastes schlegeli that occured at the fish farms in Tongyeong and Geoje City regions between late August and early September in 2006 was investigated. Sixty two fish showed no significant external symptoms except ulcerative lesions with reddish foci on the skin. From the internal observations and diagnosis results, some yellowish brown liver, intestine bleeding, atrophy and congestion in the abdominal cavity of the fish were found. In the gill, swelled filaments caused by foreign material accumulation and mucus secretion were observed. However, the main cause of the fish mass mortality in both sampling regions could be due to physiological weakness induced by significant change of water temperature causing by typhoon Wookong during the summer in 2006.

Gulbi were made by salting Yellow corvenia (Pseudosciaena manchurica) with the in three ways: the dry salting method with bay salt, the dry salting method with purified salt or with the abdominal brine injection method with purifie salt. The half of the sample was dried by the control system of temperature and humidity: the other part was dried by the natural condition. In fresh muscle, the content of IMP, hypoxanthine, inosine and AMP were $13.40,\;9.28,\;3.01{\mu}mole/g$ and trace amount, dry basis, respectively. In fresh egg, the content of AMP, hypoxanthine, inosine and IMP were 13.98, 6.56, 1.98 and $1.93{\mu}mole/g$, dry basis, respectively. During the drying process of Yellow corvenia, the content of hypoxanthine increased remarkably, while the content of AMP, IMP and inosine decreased ana remained as trace amount. It can be suggested that the characteristic flavor of Gulbi is not attributed to the nucleotides and their related compounds but rather to free amino acids.

The motion features of sanals inside of the primo vascular system (PVS), that is so-called the Kyungrak system, are investigated under a low static magnetic field by using the anatomy technology and optical microscope. The sanals with a size of about 1 selected and separated from the primo vessel and node of the real PVS inside of the surface of the internal organs are observed from rabbits' abdominal wall and dipped with PBS liquid inside of petri dish. The sanal's moving velocity along the direction of magnetic field (xdirection) and perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field (y-direction) under the low magnetic field of 0 Oe, 20 Oe, 40 Oe, 60 Oe, and 80 Oe, respectively, is observed below a internal temperature of $38^{\circ}C$. Ten sanals' moving velocities versus magnetic field are shown two differently dominant tendencies with an average velocity of 0.9 pixel/s and a random velocity according to the x-direction and y-direction, respectively. This experimental results imply that the rotating motion of sanal with nuclei DNA composed of many inorganic magnetic materials of Mn and Co is monotonically weakened by the increase of applied magnetic field.

Background: Intraoperative fluids are still poorly studied in veterinary medicine. In humans the dosage is associated with significant differences in postoperative outcomes. Objectives: The aim of this study is to verify the influence of three different fluid therapy rates in dogs undergoing video-assisted ovariohysterectomy. Methods: Twenty-four female dogs were distributed into three groups: G5, G10, and G20. Each group was given 5, 10, and 20 mL·kg^-1·h^-1 of Lactate Ringer, respectively. This study evaluated the following parameters: central venous pressure, arterial blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, acid-base balance, and serum lactate levels. Additionally, this study evaluated the following urinary variables: urea, creatinine, protein to creatinine ratio, urine output, and urine specific gravity. The dogs were evaluated up to 26 h after the procedure. Results: All animals presented respiratory acidosis during the intraoperative period. The G5 group evidenced intraoperative oliguria (0.80 ± 0.38 mL·kg^-1·h^-1), differing from the G20 group (2.17 ± 0.52 mL·kg^-1·h^-1) (p = 0.001). Serum lactate was different between groups during extubation (p = 0.036), with higher values being recorded in the G5 group (2.19 ± 1.65 mmol/L). Animals from the G20 group presented more severe hypothermia at the end of the procedure (35.93 ± 0.61℃) (p = 0.032). Only the members of the G20 group presented mean potassium values below the reference for the species. Anion gap values were lower in the G20 group when compared to the G5 and G10 groups (p = 0.017). Conclusions: The use of lactated Ringer's solution at the rate of 10 mL·kg^-1·h^-1 seems to be beneficial in the elective laparoscopic procedures over the 5 or 20 mL·kg^-1·h^-1 rates of infusion.
