이 연구의 목적은 카본블랙이 충전된 천연고무에서 비 등방성 발생에 영향을 주는 인자를 조사하기 위함이다. 고분자 사슬의 방향성은 인장특성에 영향을 준다. Pre-strained 방향의 parallel 시편은 등방성 혹은 perpendicular 시편에 비하여 낮은 인장영역에서 낮은 강도를 보이지만 높은 신장영역에서 높은 강도를 보인다. 고 인장 영역에서 parallel한 천연고무 시편은 비결정성인 SBR에 비하여 높은 강도를 보여주고 있다. 이것은 parallel 시편의 방향성에 영향을 받는 것으로, 시편의 방향성은 2차 인장시 결정화를 위한 핵으로 작용하여 결정화도를 증가시키는 것으로 보인다.

Guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit alpha-s ($Gn{\alpha}s$) is a small subunit of the G protein-couple signaling pathway, which is involved in the formation of coat color. The expression level and distribution of $Gn{\alpha}s$ were detected by quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), western blot, and immunohistochemistry to investigate the underlying mechanisms of coat color in white and black skin tissues of mice. qPCR and western blot results suggested that $Gn{\alpha}s$ was expressed at significantly higher levels in black mice compared with that of white mice, and transcripts and protein possessed the same expression in both colors. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated $Gn{\alpha}s$ staining in the root sheath and dermal papilla in hair follicle of mice skins. The results indicated that the $Gn{\alpha}s$ gene was expressed in both white and black skin tissues, and the expression level of $Gn{\alpha}s$ in the two types of color was different. Therefore, $Gn{\alpha}s$ may be involved in the coat color formation in mice.

A 2-month-old male Jeju native black calf with respiratory distress was died and requested to the Veterinary Pathology Laboratory of Jeju National University for diagnosis. Grossly, lungs were focally attached to the pleura and heart with fibrin. Purple red sublobar consolidations were distributed in both apical and cardiac lobes of lungs. Histopathologically, diffuse severe bronchointerstitial pneumonia characterized by multifocal necrotizing bronchiolitis, formation of numerous multinucleated syncytial cells in bronchiolar and alveolar lumens, and diffuse alveolar wall thickening were observed in lungs. Eosinophilic intracytoplasmic inclusions were observed in bronchiolar epithelial cells and syncytial cells. According to reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), bovine respiratory syncytial virus (BRSV) was detected in the lung of calf. Based on the histopathologic findings and RT-PCR, this calf was diagnosed as BRSV infection. In our best knowledge, this is the first case of BRSV infection in Jeju native black calf.

This study examined the effects of pre-slaughter fasting, chasing stress and chiller ageing on objective meat quality, and their relations to the proteome profile of longissimus muscle using 20 male Korean native black pigs. Treatments were composed of two levels of pre-slaughter feed withdrawal, two levels of pre-slaughter stress and four chiller ageing times. A 15 min chasing stress immediately prior to slaughter significantly (p<0.05) decreased detectable levels of $\mu$-calpain activity during rigor development and chiller ageing, but did not have any direct effect on objective meat quality. On the other hand, pigs fed until the morning of slaughter resulted in significantly (p<0.05) higher hunter L* value and cooking loss than those which received an 18 h feed withdrawal prior to slaughter. Cooking loss and hunter L* value were constant during 7 d of chiller ageing, followed by significant increases at 14 d. The fed animals showed a significantly (p<0.05) higher hunter a* value at both 3 and 7 d, while the other group maintained a stable redness for 7 d. WB-shear force was not affected by the pre-slaughter treatments, but had significant (p<0.05) linear reduction from 1 to 7 d. A gelbased proteome analysis was performed on selected animals for low and high hunter L* values at 1 d. Ten and five spots had greater than two-fold spot densities for the low and high hunter L* groups, respectively. The ten spots included chain A, deoxyribounclease I complex with actin, heat shock protein 27 kDa, a protein similar to cardiac $Ca^{2+}$ release channel, and myosin heavy chain, while the five spots included chain A aldehyde dehydrogenase, glycerol-3 phosphate dehydrogenase, and hemoglobin alpha chain. In general, feeding until the morning of slaughter resulted in more desirable meat color, but appeared to reduce palatability due to increased cooking loss. Proteome analysis demonstrated that various proteins were concomitantly involved in the determination of final meat color. The most noticeable observation in the current study was that various isoforms for a particular protein differed in degradation and/or expression rate depending on meat quality.

Objective: Autophagy is a bulk degradation system for intracellular proteins which contributes to skeletal muscle homeostasis, according to previous studies in humans and rodents. However, there is a lack of information on the physiological role of autophagy in the skeletal muscle of meat animals. This study was planned as a pilot study to investigate changes in expression of two major autophagy-related genes, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain $3{\beta}$ (MAP1LC3B) and autophagy related 7 (ATG7) in fattening beef cattle, and to compare them with skeletal muscle growth. Methods: Six castrated Japanese Black cattle (initial body weight: $503{\pm}20kg$) were enrolled in this study and fattened for 7 months. Three skeletal muscles, M. longissimus, M. gluteus medius, and M. semimembranosus, were collected by needle biopsy three times during the observation period, and mRNA levels of MAP1LC3B and ATG7 were determined by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. The expression levels of genes associated with the ubiquitin-proteasome system, another proteolytic mechanism, were also analyzed for comparison with autophagy-related genes. In addition, ultrasonic scanning was repeatedly performed to measure M. longissimus area as an index of muscle growth. Results: Our results showed that both MAP1LC3B and ATG7 expression increased over the observation period in all three skeletal muscles. Interestingly, the increase in expression of these two genes in M. longissimus was highly correlated with ultrasonic M. longissimus area and body weight. On the other hand, the expression of genes associated with the ubiquitin-proteasome system was unchanged during the same period. Conclusion: These findings suggest that autophagy plays an important role in the growth of skeletal muscle of fattening beef cattle and imply that autophagic activity affects meat productivity.

최근 4차산업 혁명으로 인하여 무인 이동체, 자율주행자동차, 커넥티드 카 등에 관심이 증가하고 있고, 자율주행 능력도 올라가고 있다. 자율주행능력에 따라 최대 6단계로 나누어지며 높은 단계일수록 주행에 있어 사람의 관여가 줄어들고, 최고 단계에서는 사람이 관여하지 않아도 된다. 오늘날의 자율 주행자동차는 4~5단계까지 개발되었지만 사고 발생 시 해결방안에 대해서는 명확하게 정의되지 않아 테스트 런만 가능한 상태이다. 이처럼 이동수단 주행 중 발생되는 사고는 거의 불가피하며 사고 발생시 누가 더 잘못했는지 판단하여 사고에 대한 처벌을 가중한다. 이러한 부분을 명백히 하기 위하여 블랙박스를 사용하지만, 촬영된 영상을 삭제하기 쉬워 뺑소니와 같은 사고를 해결하는데 어려움이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 사고를 해결하고자 블록체인을 활용한 주행기록 시스템을 설계하고자 한다.

땅콩(Arachis hypogaea)은 예민한 사람들에게 심한 알레르기를 일으킬 수 있다. Agglutinin은 땅콩에서 알레르기 유발 단백질의 하나로 알려져 있다. 식품중의 땅콩성분을 검출하기 위하여 agglutinin 유전자에 특이적인 primer pair를 이용하는 polymerase chain reaction(PCR) 방법을 개발하였다. PCR 반응은 땅콩에서 agglutinin DNA의 특정부분을 증폭시켰으나 11종의 다른 견과류, 두류 및 곡류(피스타치오, 아몬드, 해바라기씨, 잣, 호두, 대두, 검은콩, 강낭콩, 팥, 백미, 흑미)에 대해서는 반응하지 않았다. 이 PCR 방법으로 땅콩성분이 함유된 6종의 가공식품을 모두 확인할 수 있었으며 땅콩이 구성성분으로 표시되지 않은 13종의 다른 가공식품에 대해서는 모두 음성반응을 나타냈다. 본 방법은 정제된 땅콩 DNA를 100 pg까지 검출할 수 있었으며 대두 DNA에 땅콩 DNA가 0.1%까지 혼합된 경우도 검출이 가능하였다.

Objective: Qingyu pig, a Chinese indigenous pig breed, exhibits two types of coat colour phenotypes, including pure black and white with black spotting respectively. Melanocortin receptor 1 (MC1R) and agouti signaling protein (ASIP) are two widely reported pivotal genes that significantly affect the regulation of coat colour. The objectives of this study were to investigate whether the polymorphisms of these two genes are associated with coat colour and analyze the molecular mechanism of the coat colour separation in Qingyu pig. Methods: We studied the phenotype segregation and used polymerase chain reaction amplification and Sanger sequencing to investigate the polymorphism of MC1R and ASIP in 121 Qingyu pigs, consisting of 115 black and 6 white with black spotted pigs. Results: Coat colour of Qingyu pig is associated with the polymorphisms of MC1R but not ASIP. We only found 2 haplotypes, $E^{QY}$ and $E^{qy}$, based on the 13 observed mutations from MC1R gene. Among which, $E^{qy}$ presented a recessive inheritance mode in black spotted Qingyu pigs. Further analysis revealed a g.462-463CC insertion that caused a frameshift mutation and a premature stop codon, thus changed the first transmembrane domain completely and lost the remaining six transmembrane domains. Altogether, our results strongly support that the variety of Qingyu pig's coat colour is related to MC1R. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that black coat colour in Qingyu pig was dominant to white with black spotted phenotype and MC1R gene polymorphism was associated with coat colour separation in Qingyu pig.

본 연구는 현행 한우확인시험법에 이용되는 Microsatellite (MS)와 소의 유전형질 중 품종 판별에 주로 이용되는 Melanocortin Receptor 1 (MC1R) 유전자상의 Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP)를 분석하여 설계한 Primer를 Multiplex PCR을 활용하여 소의 품종을 판별하였다. MC1R 유전자형은 $E^D$, $E^+$, e형의 3Type으로 나뉘며 $E^D/E^D$, $E^D/E^+$, $E^D/e$, $E^+/E^+$, $E^+/e$, e/e의 6가지 유전자형을 가진다. $E^D$유전자형은 외래종이 지닌 유전자형으로 $E^D/E^D$, $E^D/E^+$, $E^D/e$이 이에 속하며, e유전자형은 한우가 지닌 유전자형으로 e/e의 유전자형을 가진다. 흑한우의 경우 $E^D$, $E^+$, e의 모든 유전자형을 가지고 있으나 이는 교잡에 의해 나타난 것으로 보이며 $E^+$유전자형이 흑한우 고유의 유전자형으로 추정되어 본 연구에서는 이에 따라 $E^+/E^+$, $E^+/e$의 유전자형을 흑한우로 분류하였다. 그러나 $E^D$, $E^+$의 경우 단순 PCR기법만으로는 그 판별에 어려움이 있어, MS Maker를 활용한 다형성 분석을 통해 흑한우와 수입우를 판별할 수 있는 새로운 Primer를 설계하였으며, 이를 통해 소의 품종을 판별하였다.
