  • The study for a effect of monitoring on bovine mastitis was conduced for a year from Dec, 1989 to Nov, 1990, Sampling the bulk milk of 350 herds in Inchon city and out of 10 herds among them were carried out herds guidance, CMT, SCC, isolation of pathogens and antibiotic sensitivity tests. The results obtained were summarized as follows 1. Annual mean SCC of 1213 herds was 558, 000 cell /ml 2. The number of SCC below 500, 000 cell /ml to quarters for herds guidance was at 1st 77. 0%, End 84.8% and 3rd 80.4%. The is shown that milk quality was steadly improved. 3. The most number of isolated pathogens of bovine mastitis was Staphylococcus SPP - 402(47.2%) Streptococcus SPP - 80(18.7% ) 4. The highest rate of antibiotic sensitivity test was Stapylococcus SPP - cephalothin(76.7%) Streptococcus SPP - ampicillin(77.5%) Gram negative bacilli - tetracyclin(76.0%) 5. The effect of monitoring on bovine mastitis was improved showing that at 1st 49.0% to 3rd 72.0%

  • Two known modified dipeptides, trichodermamide A (1) and aspergillazine A (2), were isolated from an ethyl acetate extract of the metabolite of a marine-derived fungus Spicaria elegans, and were found to have a weak cytotoxic effect on three cancer cell lines P388, A-549, and HL-60 agreed. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the isolation of compounds 1 and 2 from the fungus Spicaria elegans and their cytotoxic effect.

  • This paper evaluates the performance of a Magneto-Rheological (MR) fluid mount. The mount incorporates MR fluid in a conventional fluid mount to open and closed the inertia track between the fluid chambers of the mount. It is shown that such switching of the inertia track improves the mount's isolation effect, by eliminating the large transmissibility peak that commonly exists at frequencies higher than the notch frequency for conventional fluid mounts. The switching frequencies of the MR mount is evaluated, based on the parameters of the mount. A simple control scheme for switching the mount between the open and closed states is proposed, and the performance of the controlled mount is compared with conventional mounts. A sensitivity analysis is conducted to evaluate the effect of parameter errors in estimating the switching frequencies and mount performance. The results show that the switching frequencies can be accurately determined from mount parameters that are easily measured or estimated.

  • The study presented herein focused on the change in hysteretic force-deformation behavior of lead rubber bearings (LRBs). The material model used to idealize response of LRBs under cyclic motion is capable of representing the gradual attrition in strength of isolator unit on account of lead core heating. To identify the effect of loading history on the hysteretic response of LRBs, a typical isolator unit is subjected to cyclic motions with different velocity, amplitude and number of cycles. Furthermore, performance of an LRB isolated single degree of freedom system is studied under different seismic input levels. Finally, the significance of lead core heating effect on LRBs is discussed by considering the current design approach for base isolated structures. Results of this study show that the response of an LRB is governed strongly by the amplitude and number of cycles of the motion and the considered seismicity level.

  • Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 was grown in BHIB medium supplemented with $Mn^{2+}$ for 96 h at $37^{\circ}C$ in a shaker incubator. After removing the microbial biomass, a lipopeptide biosurfactant was extracted from the supernatant. Its structure was established by chemical and spectroscopy methods. The structure was confirmed by physical properties, such as Hydrophile-Lipophile Balance (HLB), surface activity and erythrocyte hemolytic capacity. The critical micelle concentration (cmc) and erythrocyte hemolytic capacity of the biosurfactant were compared to those of surfactants such as SDS, BC (benzalkonium chloride), TTAB (tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide) and HTAB (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide). The maximum hemolytic effect for all surfactants mentioned was observed at concentrations above cmc. The maximum hemolytic effect of synthetic surfactants was more than that of the biosurfactant produced by B. subtilis ATCC 6633. Therefore, biosurfactant would be considered a suitable surface-active agent due to low toxicity to the membrane.

  • Bioassay-guided fractionation of a methanol extract of Ganoderma lucidum gave a pure cholesterol esterase inhibitor. On the basis of spectroscopic analysis and comparison with data from the literature, the structure of this compound was identified as $5{\alpha},8{\alpha}$-epidioxyergosta-6,22-dien-$3{\bet}$-ol (compound I). This compound inhibited cholesterol esterase activity with an $IC_{50}$ value of $42{\mu}M$. Lineweaver-Burk plot analysis revealed that compound I is a noncompetitive inhibitor. The findings of this study suggest that compound I may be the active principle of the hypocholesterolemic effect of Ganoderma lucidum.

  • A marine Streptomyces sp., which produce water-soluble blue pigment was isolated from shallow-sea muds. The effect of various nutritional conditions on growth of isolated strain were investigated to facilite the potential use of this organism in industry. The effect of carbon source was characterized as a 10g/1 of soluble starch. Growth was optimum at pH 7.0 and slightly affected with more alkaline range but was shown to decrease dramatically in acidic range. Under the optimum growth conditions, isolated strain produced substantial amounts of blue pigment and biomass.

  • It has been believed that "Kup kee" (Chloranthus japonica) is good for boils, or dermatopathia, and enteric fever by the Korean folks. However, there is no scientific report on its chemical ingredients and its antibacterial activities so far. The roots of Chloranthus japonica were dried and pulverized. The pulverized powder was then extracted with methanol. Then an extract was obtained by following Stas Otto's method. finally a crystal fraction was obtained through Column Chromatography. Recrystalization from methanol gave white needle crystals, m.p. $198^{\circ}C.$ Generally this compound has shown strong antibacterial effects on Gram negative bacteria. It exerts most powerful effect on Salmonella typhi. on the other hand it shows weak effect on Inaba cholera.
