Objectives : We performed a pilot study to investigate inter- and intra-rater reliability of pattern identification using nasal endoscopy for allergic rhinitis(AR). Methods : Eight experts of ophthalmology, otolaryngology and dermatology of Korean medicine evaluated 20 nasal endoscopy photograph cases of AR patients with pattern identification index using nasal endoscopy for AR including the nasal membrane color(pale / hyperemia), nasal membrane humidity(dryness / dampness), rhinorrhea(watery / yellow), and membrane edema (atrophic / edematous) on nasal endoscopy. Results : Intra-rater agreement(%) and Kappa coefficient was generally from 'moderate' to 'good'(% agreement: 73.13-90% / Kappa coefficient: 0.547-0.748). Inter-rater agreement(%) and Kappa coefficient was also from 'moderate' to 'good' (% agreement: 65-85% / Kappa: 0.475-0.778) except 'humidity(dryness / dampness)' item (% agreement: 55.98% / Kappa: 0.340). In findings of subgroup analysis according to affiliation of raters, Inter-rater agreement(%) and Kappa coefficient of raters in same affiliation was higher than inter-rater agreement(%) and Kappa coefficient of raters in different affiliation except 'dryness / dampness' item. Conclusions : It is necessary to improve objectivity and reproducibility of pattern identification using nasal endoscopy for allergic rhinitis(AR) through the development of detail-oriented criteria and enhanced training of clinicians with development of standard operating procedures(SOPs).

Chitosan microspheres were prepared by ionic gelation process with sodium sulfate for nasal vaccine delivery. Bordetella Bronchiseptica Dermonecrotoxin (BBD) as a major virulence factor of a causative agent of atrophic rhinitis (AR) was loaded to the chitosan microspheres for vaccination. Morphology of BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres was observed as spherical shapes. The average particle sizes of the BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres were about $2.69$\mid${\;}\mu\textrm{m}$. More BBD was released with an increase of molecular weight of chitosan and with an increase of medium pH in vitro due to weaker intermolecular interaction between chitosan and BBD. Tumor necrosis $factor-{\alpha}{\;}(TNF{\alpha})$ and nitric oxide (NO) from RAW264.7 cells stimulated with BBD-loaded chitosan microspheres were gradually secreted, suggesting that released BBD from chitosan microspheres had immune stimulating activity of AR vaccine.

Pasteurella multocida serogroup D strain, which produces P. multocida toxin (PMT), is a widespread and harmful pathogen of respiratory diseases such as pneumonia and progressive atrophic rhinitis (PAR) in swine. Vaccination has been considered the most desirable and effective approach for controlling the diseases caused by toxigenic P. multocida. To investigate the antigenicity and immunogenicity of partial fragments of recombinant PMT, recombinant proteins of the N-terminal (PMT-A), middle (PMT-B), C-terminal (PMT-C), and middle-C-terminal (PMT2.3) regions of PMT were successfully produced in an Escherichia coli expression system. The molecular masses of PMT-A, PMT-B, PMT-C, and PMT2.3 were ca. 53, 55, 35, and 84 kDa, respectively, purified by nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) affinity column chromatography. All the recombinant proteins except for PMT-A showed immune responses to antisera obtained from a swine showing symptoms of PAR. Moreover, high titers of PMT-specific antibodies were raised from mice immunized with each of the recombinant proteins; however, the immunoreactivities of the antibodies to authentic PMT and heat-inactivated whole bacteria were different, respectively. In the protection study, the highest protection against homologous challenge was shown in the case of PMT2.3; relatively poor protections occurred for the other PMT fragments.

The present study was conducted to investigate the isolation frequency, biochemical prop erties and antimicrobial susceptibility of B. bronchiseptica isolated from slaughtered pigs during the period from March to December, 1992. In Kyeonggi province. A serological survey for antibody of B. bronchiseptica in 200 slaughtered pigs was carried out by agglutination and tetrazolium reduction methods. The results were summarized as follows ; 1. From 80 slaughtered pigs, 27(33.8%) case were isolated and all isolate strains were resistant to Penicillin, Streptomycin, Chloramphenicol, Tetracycline and Ampicllin, while the majority of them were susceptible to Gentamicin, Cloxacin, Colistin, Neomycin, and Kanamycin. 2. Incidence of B. bronchiseptica antibody in 200 slaughtered pigs were measured by agglutination and tetrazolium reduction methods. Agglutination method was shown 38 (19%) of 200 with a titer of below 1：20 and 20(10%) of 200 with a titer of above 1：640. Tetrazolium reduction method was observed 33(16.5%) of 200 with a titer of below 1 : 20 and 32(15%) of 200 with a titer of above 1：640. 3. LSD analysis indicated that the difference of the responses between agglutination test and tetrazolium reduction test was not significant.

Swine respiratory diseases have induced severe economic lasses in swine industry worldwide. Therefore, several methods have been made and applied to prevent and control the diseases. However, these methods still have a problem and also induce side effects. Recently, the use of egg yolk antibody was introduced to control and prevent the diseases as one of new trials. As a study of using egg yolk antibody, antibody titers against several different antigens of major pathogens in swine respiratory diseases were compared in egg yolk and serum of hens immunized with those antigens. The titers were measured by ELISA using the antigens as coating antigens. The relationship in antibody titers between egg yolk and serum were identified by analysis of variance for linear regression. Almost of antigens used in this study showed the high relationship in antibody titers between egg yolk and serum (r = 0.87 ~ 0.93) even though the relationship in antibody titers against P. multocida A:3 IROMP was slightly low (r = 0.74)(P<0.01). These results indicated that antibody titer in egg yolk could be useful to predict the titer in serum of chicken.

본 실험은 생봉독 처리가 돼지의 체액성 면역반응에 대한 생봉독의 효과를 조사하기 위하여 실시하였다. 혈중 Immunoglobulin(Ig) G, IgA, IgM의 농도에 미치는 생봉독의 효과를 조사하기 위하여 모돈 3두에서 생산한 자돈 20두(LY ×D)를 생봉독 처리군과 대조군으로 각각 10두씩 배치하였다. 생봉독 처리군은 출생시와 3일령에 교소혈 (GV-1), 해문혈(ST-25) 및 두구혈(CV-8), 6일령에 거세, 단미 창상부위에 생봉 1마리씩 직침 시술하였고, 대조군은 생리식염수 1ml를 동일한 혈위에 주입하였다. 혈중 Ig 농도 측정을 위하여 출생시와 3일, 7일, 14일 및 21일령에 채혈하여 Immunoturbidimetric method로 IgG, IgM, IgA를 측정하였다. 지표항원으로 사용한 돈 콜레라와 위축성비염 백신에 대한 생봉독의 항체 생성효과를 조사하기 위하여 모돈 5두에서 생산된 자돈 40두(LY×D)를 생봉독 처리군과 대조군으로 각각 20두씩 공시하였다. 생봉독 처리군은 출생시에 교소혈(Jiao-Chao, GV-1), 해문혈(Hai-Men, ST-25) 및 두구혈(Du-Kou, CV-8)에, 3일령에 단미 및 거세시술 시 창상부위에 생봉독을 처리하였고, 21일령 이유시에는 교소혈(GV-1)과 백회혈(Bai- Hui, GV-20)에 생봉독을 처리하였다. 지표항원으로 위축성비염 백신은 24일령과 44일령에 접종하였고 돈콜레라 백신은 44일령과 64일령에 각각 접종하였다. 항체가 분석용 혈액은 24, 34, 44, 54 및 74일령에 채혈하여 위축성비염은 시험관응집반응, 돈콜레라는 ELISA법에 의하여 항체가를 조사하였다. IgG 농도는 처리군에서 출생시 339.52, 3일령에 366.48, 7일령에 296.52, 14일령에 242.06, 21일령에는 219.06mg/dl이었고 대조군은 각각 347.10, 333.14, 243.28, 205.18 및 191.58mg/dl 이었다. 처리전(출생시)에는 처리군과 대조군간에 유의차가 없었으나 처리군의 IgG 농도가 대조군에 비하여 3일령 10.3% (P<0.02), 7일령에는 21.9% (P<0.01), 14일령에는 18.0% (P<0.07), 21일령에는 14.3(P<0.07) 더 높게 나타났다. IgA와 IgM의 농도는 전체기간동안 처리군과 대조군간에 유의차가 인정되지 않았다. 돈콜레라 virus에 대한 항체역가는 처리군에서 대조군에 비하여 24일령 때 57.0%(P<0.03), 34일령 때 74.6% (P<0.006), 44일령에 48.6% (P<0.017), 54일령 때 45.0% (P<0.16), 74일령 때 44.4%(P<0.006)가 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 위축성비염 원인균인 Bordetella bronchiceptica에 대한 항체역가는 처리군이 대조군에 비하여 34일령 때는 39.7%(P<0.002), 44일령 때 31.9% (P<0.02), 54일령 때에 33.4%(P<0.01), 74일령 때에는 57.3%(P<0.007)가 높게 나타나 접종일인 24일령을 제외하고 전체기간에 걸쳐 높은 항체수준을 보였다. 위의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 돼지에 대한 생봉독 처리는 면역기능향상 효과가 있는 것으로 사료된다. 이와 같은 결과를 볼 때 돼지에 대한 생봉독의 처리는 양돈 생산성면에서 생봉독 처리는 돼지의 생존율을 높이고, 증체량이 높았다는 조 등(2005)의 보고를 뒷받침하고 있어 양돈 산업발전에 기여할 것으로 사료된다.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the tendency of incident diseases in pre- and post- weaning piglets which ages were 1 to 7 weeks old by laboratory diagnosis and in order to minimize death in preweaning piglets and of stunted growth in postweaning piglets. The result of this experiment used as the basic data for the preventive programs in pre- and post- weaning piglets and were as follows: 23 different diseases diagnosed in 331 cases were studied in relation to age, season, and etiology. The most prevelent diseases of pre- and post- weaning piglet were Colibacillosis(79 case, 23.9%) and the major diseases were Salmonellosis(44 cases, 13.3%), Anemia(37 cases, 11.2%). Unknown viral disease(20 case, 6.1%), Rota viral infection(19 case, 5.8%), Porcine reproductive & respiratory syndrome(PRRS; 15 case 4.5%), Transmissible gastroenteritis(TGE; 12 case, 3.6%). The gastrointestinal disease, such as Colibacillosis, Salmonellosis, Swine dysentery, Clostridial infection, Rotaviral infection, TGE, Porcine epidemic diarrhea(PED) and Ballantidiosis occured pro- dominently in the period of pre- and post- weaning, which were 178 cases(53.8%) and not related to occurrence according to age and season. The respiratory diseases were Atrophic rhinitis(AR), Swine enzootic pneumonia, Pneumonic pasteurellosis, Pleuropneumonia, Branchopneumonia, PRRS and which were 48 cases(14.5%) and higher prevalent in spring and summer. The viral diseases was 73 cases(22.1%) that occurred in the period of 5 weeks piglet and prevalent mainly in spring. The bacterial diseases were 188 cases(56.8%) that were not related to occurrence according to age and season. Salmonellosis was prevalent in 3 to 5 weeks piglet and mainly occurred in summer. Viral septicemia and rotaviral infection occurred after 5 weeks piglets intensively and 3 to 5 weeks, respectively. And the both occurred without relation with season. PRRS occurred after 4 weeks piglet and prevalent in summer. TGE occurred 1 to 7 days old piglets and prevalent in spring and winter. Hematologic values of anemia was decrease in number of Red Blood Cell, concentration of Hemoglobin and Hematocrit. Amikacin, cephalothin, colistin, norfloxacin were effective to E coli, and amikacin, cephalothin, nortloxacin, neomycin were effective to Salmonellra spp. but clindamycin, erythromycin, penicillin, sulfonamides were resistant to E coli and Salmonella spp.

The effects on CTC (T1) and CTC, Sulfathiazole and Penicillin Combination (T2) medication in feed through one life cycle of pigs, namely, weaning, mating, farrowing, lactation, growing, finishing and slaughter, were tested under local condition. In sow phase, productivity and the number of microflora in urine before and after medication of CTC were studied and average daily gain and feed conversion rate were checked during growing and finishing period. All pigs reached at 155 days old were slaughtered for pathological examination. 1. Litter size, farrowing rate and survival rate at birth were improved by CTC medication from weaning to 21th day after mating and mortality of piglet at weaning, 25 days after farrowing, was reduced in the CTC medication group, but no siginificant. 2. The number of microflora in the sow urine was changed with the medication at 200ppm of CTC in feed. In particular, the number of E coli, Samonella and Staphylococci were reduced by CTC medication. 3. The average daily gain and feed conversion rate of grower and finisher pigs was improved significantly in both treated groups, most in the high level CTC (T1) medicated group and was lowest in the control group. 4. The number of infected lungs was reduced not significant by both treatments (as % pneumonic lesions Co 66.7%, T1 47.1%, T2 31.4%) and the severity of lung lesions was significantly reduced by both high level of CTC and CTC combination medication in feed. 5. Although there were no statistical differences in atrophic rhinitis based on turbinate scores among the 3 groups, the number of mild and moderate (Grade 2 and 3) infections was higher in the control group (9/36) than in the treated groups (T1 2/34 & T2 4/35).
