  • This paper proposes a technique for analyzing mutual relation of an entangled cord by consistent labeling. Cords are often entangled unexpectedly and sometimes they even produce knots. The purpose of this study is to provide an algorithm to resolve such entangled cords automatically. It may as well have applications in future to recognizing the structure of tree branches, angiography, abdominal intestines, etc.

  • 당뇨병은 질병 치료와 관리에 있어서 적절한 식이요법이 필수적이며 식이성분이 매우 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 치커리 이눌린은 인체 내 소화효소에 의해 가수분해되지 않는 수용성 식이섬유원이며 올리고당은 생체 내에서 천연 식이섬유질과 유사한 역할을 할 뿐만 아니라 소장내에서 소화 흡수되지 않는다. 이에 따라 대장의 유익한 장내 미생물인 비피더스균에 의해 일차적으로 이용되어 유기산을 생산하여 장질환을 예방하고, 지질대사를 개선하는 등 건강기능식품으로 이용가치가 높은 식품으로 평가되어지고 있다. (중략)

  • In oriental medicine, it is well known that Angelica gigantis tonifies and harmonizes the blood, regulates the menses, and moistens the intestines. This herb has been used for deficient blood pattern, menstural problem, abdominal pain, and traumatic injuries in oriental medicine. A major component of Angelica gigantic consist of a various coumarines, decursin, schooltime, umbelliferone, safrole, 3-butylphalide sistesterol. In this study, we aimed to measure the contents of decursin, one of major coumarine derivative, to determine the standardization of Angelica gigantis.

  • This paper analysed the induced current density characteristics inside human body by extremely low frequency magnetic fields according to varying conductivities of human model. Human model was composed of several organs and other parts of 곳 human body, whose shapes were spheroids or cylinders. Organs taken into account were the brain, heart, lungs, liver and intestines. Applying the boundary element method to the human model, effects of the organ conductivity difference to the induced current distribution were estimated.

  • A variety of different spirochaetal bacteria inhabit the large intestines of animals and man. This paper focuses on anaerobic intestinal spirochaetes of the genus Brachyspira (formerly Serpulina). Within the last few years, six new Brachyspira species have been officially name and/or renamed, and two other groups of these bacteria have been given provisional species names (Table 1). (omitted)

  • Pharmacological studies have been carried out with the methanol extract of the whole plant of Pseudostellaria palibiniana Ohwi (Caryophyllaceae). The results showed that it had stimulation effect on heart, hypotensive actions depending on extract contents, stimulation effect on respiration, contraction on excised intestines, enhancement of tension on excised uterus, antineoplastic activity on Ehrlich carcinoma, liver protective activity against $CCl_4$ intoxication, writhing and diuretic activities.

  • In the present study, methods of the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) were evaluated for the rapid detection and differentiation of transmissible gastroenteritis virus(TGEV), porcine epidemic diarrhea virus(PEDV) and rotavirus in piglets suffering from diarrhea. For the purposes, the PCR conditions were first confirmed for the amplification of VP7 gene of rotavirus and N gene of TGEV and PEDV using each specific primers and their annealing temperature. Multiplex RT-PCR methods were further determined to distinguish these viral infections and the results are as follows. For the specific amplification of these viral genes, the reliable PCR condition was determined as 30 cycles of reaction consisting each 1 min of denature at $94^{\circ}C$, annealing at $42^{\circ}C$ and polymerization at $72^{\circ}C$ with 1.0 mM $MgCl_2$. It was able to differentiate these viral infections in the intestines and feces of piglets suffering from diarrhea by duplex PCR for TGEV and PEDV and single PCR for rotavirus with a primer-annealing temperature of $42^{\circ}C$. When the multiplex RT-PCR were undertaken for the field samples, 17 cases of PEDV and 5 cases of rotavirus infections were differential diagnosed in a total of 92 samples of intestines and feces of the piglets with diarrhea.

  • An experimental study was performed to observe the in vivo effects of praziquantel on the light and scanning electron microscopic morphology of Fibricola seoulensis. The metacercariae were obtained from the snakes and 1, 000 in each number was orally given to total 15 albino rats; 5 controls and 10 treatment group. Seven days later the 10 rats were treated with 10 mg/kg praziquantcl and sacrificed 1~24 hours later to search for the worms from their small intestines. The major light microscopic changes in the drug-exposed worms were early contraction followed by relaxation of especially their forebody, vacuolization of the tegument and subtegumental parenchymal layers, and narrowing of the intestinal lumens. The scanning electron microscopic findings were characterized by formation of numerous blebs followed by rupture and subsequent destruction of their whole teguments. These results show that the change in worm body is not confined to the tegument but extends to deeper parenchymal portions and also occurs in their intestines. It is suggested that the drug uptake by the worms should be either through their tegument or through the digestive tract.

  • The interactions of microbiota in the gut play an important role in promoting or maintaining the health of hosts. In this study, in order to investigate and compare the effects of dietary supplementation with Lactobacillus pentosus HC-2 (HC-2), Enterococcus faecium NRW-2, or the bacteria-free supernatant of a HC-2 culture on the bacterial composition of Litopenaeus vannamei, Illumina sequencing of the V1-V2 region of the 16S rRNA gene was used. The results showed that unique species exclusively existed in specific dietary groups, and the abundance of Actinobacteria was significantly increased in the intestinal bacterial community of shrimp fed with the bacteria-free supernatant of an HC-2 culture compared with the control. In addition, the histology of intestines of the shrimp from the four dietary groups was also described, but no obvious improvements in the intestinal histology were observed. The findings in this work will help to promote the understanding of the roles of intestinal bacteria in shrimps when fed with probiotics or probiotic supernatant.
