The aim of the present study was to compare two different serum-free media, modified synthetic oviduct fluid (mSOF) and modified potassium simplex optimization medium (mKSOM) containing 20% RD (RPMI1640 + DMEM, 1:1 v/v) (RD-mKSOM), for in vitro culture (IVC) of bovine embryos. After in vitro maturation and fertilization, the presumptive zygotes were cultured in two different serum-free conditions for 7 days and 9 days to evaluate blastocyst formation and hatching, respectively. Serum supplemented conventional CR2 medium was used as control. After 7 day of culture, there was no significant difference in cleavage and blastocyst formation rates among three groups (mSOF, 59.3 and 30.1%; RD-mKSOM, 65.0 and 41.5%; control, 51.6 and 38.0%, respectively). Hatching rate was significantly higher in control (69.0%) than other experimental groups (mSOF, 22.0%; RD-mKSOM, 39.5%) (P<0.0001 and P<0.001, respectively). Although both serum-free conditions showed lower hatching rates than serum-added control, in serum-free groups, RD-mKSOM showed significantly higher hatching rate than mSOF (P<0.001). In addition, one-step using RD-mKSOM may facilitate IVC procedure than two-step culture system. In conclusion, the results indicate that one-step RD-mKSOM is more suitable defined culture system for IVC of bovine embryos than two-step mSOF.

본 연구는 메주에서 순수 분리된 메주곰팡이의 대표적 균종인 황국균(Aspergillus oryzae; AO)으로 만든 AO culture와 Salmonella 병원특이 유전자를 삽입한 형질전환 AO(TAO) culture가 산란계의 생산성, 계란 품질 및 장내 미생물 균총에 미치는 영향을 규명하고자 실시하였다. 39주령 산란계 Hy-line Brown 840수를 공시하여 대조구, AO culture 0.2%와 0.5%, TAO culture 0.2%와 0.5%, UV를 조사하여 단백질 분해효소를 감소시킨 mutant에 Salmonella 병원 특이 유전자를 삽입한 형질전환 AO(TMAO) culture 0.2%와 0.5% 첨가구들을 비교하였다. 각 첨가구는 6반복, 반복당 20수씩, 한 케이지 당 2수씩 배치하여 8주간 사양시험을 실시하였다. 사양시험 결과 모든 산란 생산성 및 계란 품질 관련 조사항목에서 처리간에 유의한(P<0.05) 차이가 있었다. TAO culture 0.2% 첨가구가 산란 생산성에 있어서 유의적으로 가장 높았으며, 난중은 모든 AO 첨가구들이 대조구에 비해 유의적으로 낮거나 낮아지는 경향을 나타내었다. 연파란율은 TMAO culture 0.5% 첨가구가 가장 낮았다. 사료섭취량과 사료요구율은 대조구와 모든 AO 첨가구들간에 유의적 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 난각 강도는 대조구 보다 모든 AO 첨가구들에서 유의적으로 높게 나타났으며, 난황 색도는 TMAO culture 0.5% 첨가구에서 가장 높았다. 난각 색도와 Haugh unit은 대조구와 모든 AO 첨가구들간에 유의적 차이가 나타나지 않았다. 장내 미생물 균총(Salmo- nella spp., E. coli. Lactobacilli spp.)에서는 유의적(P<0.05) 차이가 있었다. AO culture 첨가에 의해서 Lactobacilli spp.의 수는 증가되고, E. coli 및 Salmonella spp.의 수는 감소되었다. 특히 TAO와 TMAO culture 첨가구에서는 AO culture 첨가구보다 Salmonella spp. 및 E. coli 억제효과가 컸으며 첨가수준(0.5% vs 0.2%) 간에는 유의한 차이가 없었다. 결론적으로 TAO culture 0.2% 첨가는 산란 생산성 증가에 효과가 있었으며 TAO 및 TMAO culture 0.2% 첨가는 장내 E. coli 및 Salmonella spp.의 감소에 유의한 효과가 있었다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of empowerment, infection control organizational culture, and infection control awareness on infection control performance among nurses in long-term care hospitals. Methods: A descriptive survey study was conducted with 125 nurses as subjects who had been working for at least six months in four long-term care hospitals located in Busan metropolitan city and Gyeongsangnam-do Province. Data were collected from September 30 to October 28, 2021 and analyzed using t-test, one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression with SPSS/WIN 26.0. Results: The results showed that infection control performance had significant correlations with empowerment (r=.36, p<.001), infection control organizational culture (r=.51, p<.001), and infection control awareness (r=.75, p<.001). Multiple regression analysis for infection control performance revealed that the most powerful predictor was infection control awareness (β=.70, p<.001). Empowerment, infection control awareness and awareness of infection control guidelines explained approximately 60.0% of the variance in infection control performance. Conclusion: Findings indicated that various factors are related to the infection control performance among nurses in long-term care hospital. Based on the results of this study, further development and application of the programs to enhance empowerment and infection control awareness are needed in order to improve the infection control performance of nurses in long-term care hospitals.

In order to investigate the effect of feeding live yeast culture on the performance of laying hens, a feeding trial was conducted with 96 20-wk-old Hy4ine brown layers during their laying period of 60 wk. The live yeast culture used was a product from Saccharomyces cerevisiae that was cultured on the corn-based substrate followed by careful drying of whole material not to lose the viability of yeast. Three levels of yeast culture as 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% for three treatments and 0% for the control were included in the experimental diets. The feeding trial was carried out for 60 wk from August 26, 1992 to October 26, 1993. To evaluate the performance of layers during cold or hot periods as affected by the yeast culture feeding, data from the 12-wk winter period and 12-wk summer period were separated and analyzed accordingly. During 60 wk of laying period hen-day egg production was slightly but significantly(P<.05) improved by feeding the yeast culture. The average egg weight and daily egg weight(g /day) were also increased by the yeast culture. Feeding the yeast culture did not increase feed intake but feed efficiency was improved significantly (P<.05). No significant difference was detected in egg or eggshell qualities between control and yeast culture-treated groups. Feed intake and egg weight were not affected by the yeast culture feeding under both cold and hot period, but egg production and feed efficiency during hot summer improved significantly by its feeding. This result indicates that the effectiveness of the yeast culture feeding is greater during summer than winter for laying hens.

In mass production of seed-potato plantlets, the processes for in vitro propagation and ex vitro acclimatization with a high cost should be improved by a culture system with environmental control using scaled-up culture vessels. The experiment was conducted to design a hydroponic culture system for enhancement of growth and development of seed-potato (Solanum tuberosum) plantlets cultured under photoautotrophic (without sugar in culture medium) conditions with controlled light intensity and ventilation rate. The culture system was consisted of scaled-up culture vessels, ventilation pipes, a multi-cell tray and an environmental control system (ECS) for optimum controlling in temperature, light intensity, ventilation rate, and culture-medium supply. Growth and development of the plantlets was significantly increased under the ECS compared with a conventional culture system (CCS) of photomixotrophic culture (with sugar in culture medium) using small scale vessels. For 21 days, leaf area of the plantlets was expanded more than 2 times, and number of internodes also approximately 4 times greate. under the ECS. In addition, the photoautotrophic growth in sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas) and chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum morifolium) plantlets was greater more than 2 times compared with the CCS.
