Background: This study investigated the effects of soil properties on the soil fungal community in first and continuous cultivation areas of Cnidium officinale Makino. Methods and Results: The soil fungal community was analyzed for relative abundance and principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) was conducted using Illumina MiSeq sequencing. The correlation between the soil chemical properties and the soil fungal community was assessed with distance-based linear models (DISTLM). The soil fungal community showed distinct clusters consisting in the continuous cultivation area of C. officinale Makino. PCoA and DISTLM indicated that soil pH, calcium, and available P₂O₅ significantly affected the soil fungal community in the cultivation area of C. officinale Makino. In addition, considering 5 different pathogenic fungi the relative abundance of Fusarium in the continuous cultivation area was significantly higher compared to that in the first cultivation area of C. officinale Makino. Conclusions: This study is important because it has determinined the effects of soil properties on the soil fungal community in both first and continuous cultivation areas of C. officinale Makino. Moreover, these results will be helpful to investigate the cause of continuous cropping obstacle in C. officinale Makino by examining the changes of soil fungal community.

콘텐츠 중심 네트워크(CCN)는 데이터를 찾는데 필요한 라우팅 정보를 콘텐츠 이름에서 찾는 방식으로 기존의 IP 방식과는 다른 새로운 네트워킹 패러다임이다. CCN의 도전과제 중 하나인 이동성 관리는 크게 정보요청자의 이동과 정보제공자의 이동을 들 수 있다. 그 중에서도 정보제공자 이동의 경우 해당되는 라우터의 경로 정보를 갱신해야 하므로 많은 오버헤드와 시간이 필요하다. 이에 본 논문은 CCN에서 효율적인 정보제공자의 이동성 지원을 위해 콘텐츠의 인기도를 고려한 Popularity-based Pushing CCN(PoPCoN)을 제안한다. 제안하는 알고리즘은 기존의 기법과 비교하여 요청자의 콘텐츠 다운로드 시간을 단축시키고 네트워크의 오버헤드를 감소시킨다.

This study was conducted to compare the anesthetic effects of 2,2,2-tribromoethanol (TBE, $Avertin^{(R)}$) in ICR mice obtained from three different sources. TBE (2.5%) was intraperitoneally injected at three doses: high-dose group (500 mg/kg), intermediate-dose group (250 mg/kg), and low-dose group (125 mg/kg). Anesthesia time, recovery time, end-tidal peak $CO_2$ ($ETCO_2$), mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate, oxygen saturation ($SpO_2$), body temperature, pH, $PCO_2$, and $PO_2$ of the arterial blood were measured. Stable anesthesia was induced by all doses of TBE and the anesthesia time was maintained exhibited dose dependency. No significant differences in anesthetic duration were found among the three different strains. However, the anesthesia time was longer in female than in male mice, and the duration of anesthesia was significantly longer in female than in male mice in the high-dose group. The recovery time was significantly longer for female than male mice in the intermediate- and high-dose groups. In the ICR strains tested, there were no significant differences in the mean arterial blood pressure, $SPO_2$, arterial blood $PCO_2$, and $PO_2$, which decreased after TBE anesthesia, or in heart rate and $ETCO_2$, which increased after TBE anesthesia. In addition, body temperature, blood biochemical markers, and histopathological changes of the liver, kidney, and lung were not significantly changed by TBE anesthesia. These results suggested that ICR mice from different sources exhibited similar overall responses to a single exposure to TBE anesthesia. In conclusion, TBE is a useful drug that can induce similar anesthetic effects in three different strains of ICR mice.

Mongolian horses are one of the oldest horse breeds, and are very important livestock in Mongolia as they are used in various fields such as transportation, food (milk, meat), and horse racing. In addition, research and preservation on pure Mongolian breeds are being promoted under the implementation of the new Genetics of Livestock Resources' act in Mongolia. However, despite the implementation of this act, genetic research on Mongolian horses using microsatellites (MS) has not progressed enough. Therefore, this study was conducted to analyze the genetic polymorphism of five breeds (Gobi shankh, Tes, Gal shar, Darkhad, and Undurshil) using 14 MS markers recommended by International Society for Animal Genetics (ISAG). The mean number of alleles (MNA) was 8.29, expected heterozygosity frequency (H_Exp) was 0.767, observed heterozygosity frequency (H_Obs) was 0.752, and polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.729. The Nei's genetic distance analysis showed that the genetic distance between Gobi shankh and Darkhad horses was the farthest, and the other three breeds, Tes, Gal shar, and Undurshil were found to be close to each other. Similarly, the principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) and factorial correspondence analysis (FCA) showed that the Gobi shankh and Darkhad horses were genetically distinct from other breeds. On the other hand, it appears that Tes, Gal shar, and Undurshil horses, which are genetically similar, most likely interbred with each other. Therefore, it is expected that these results will help the conservation of genetic resources in Mongolia and the establishment of policies related to Mongolian horses.

Background: Long-term comparative data of phacoemulsification combined with endoscopic cyclophotocoagulation (phaco-ECP) versus phacoemulsification (phaco) alone in dogs are rare. Objectives: To investigate the effects of ECP on postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) and complications after phaco in dogs with normal IOP. Methods: Medical records of IOP, conjunctival hyperemia, corneal edema, aqueous flare, posterior synechia, intraocular fibrin, and posterior capsule opacification (PCO) formation in 15 canine eyes that underwent phaco-ECP and 36 eyes that underwent phaco alone were evaluated retrospectively. ECP was applied when either the iridocorneal angle or the ciliary cleft was narrow or closed. Results: The IOP of the phaco-ECP group persisted within the normal range postoperatively. The phaco-ECP group had a shorter period of dorzolamide use than did the phaco group. PCO was formed earlier in the phaco-ECP group than in the phaco group. The phaco-ECP group showed more severe corneal edema than the phaco group at every follow-up visit. Posterior synechia was more severe in the phaco-ECP group than in the phaco group from two weeks until the last follow-up. Conclusions: Although ECP might cause more postoperative complications such as corneal edema and posterior synechia, it could effectively reduce the incidence of IOP increase after phaco in dogs with a high risk of postoperative glaucoma.

Coenzyme Q10(CQ10)은 세포의 미토콘드리아 전자전달계의 산화적 인산화 작용에 중요한 역할을 하는 물질로서 최근 항산화제로서 가능성이 주목을 받고 있다. 따라서 본 시험은 산란 스트레스로서 지방간 현상이 다발하는 산란계(40주령)를 이용하여 대조군(CON), 분말 CoQ10 급여군(PCoQ, 100 mg/kg 사료) 및 유화 CoQ10 급여군(ECoQ, 100 mg/kg 사료) 등 3 처리군으로 설정하고 항산화 관련 지표를 조사하였다. 5주간의 시험 결과 분말 및 유화 CoQ10 급여는 산란계의 체중, 증체, 간 및 비장의 무게에는 영향은 미치지 않았다. CoQ10 급여 후 혈액의 전체 항산화력(total antioxidant power)을 조사한 결과 대조군과 비교 시 ECoQ 군에서 약 2배 정도 유의적으로(P<0.05) 증가하였다. PCoQ 군에서 수치상 약 1.5배의 TAP가 증가하였으나 대조군과 비교 시 유의적 차이는 없었다. 산란계의 간 조직에서 SOD, GPX 및 CAT 등 항산화 효소의 mRNA 발현은 분말 또는 유화 CoQ10 급여에 따른 유의적 효과가 없었다. 이들 항산화 효소들의 특이적 활성도를 조사한 결과 역시 분말 또는 유화 CoQ10 급여에 따른 유의적 차이가 없었다. 그러나 간 조직의 지질과산화(lipid peroxidation) 지표는 대조군과 비교 시 ECoQ에서 유의하게(P<0.05) 낮은 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과 유화형 COQ10 급여는 산란계에서 혈액의 전체 항산화력(TAP)을 증가시키고 간 조직에서 발생하는 활성산소를 효율적으로 제거하여 지질과산화도를 감소시키는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 COQ10 급여는 과도한 산란 스트레스로부터 건강한 산란계를 사육할 수 있는 항산화 사료첨가제로써 이용 가능성이 높은 것으로생각된다.

Effect of cadmium (Cd) intoxication on renal acid-base regulation was studied in adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. Cd intoxication was induced by subcutaneous injections of $CdCl_2$ at a dose of 2 mg Cd/kg/day for $3{\sim}4$ weeks. In Cd-intoxicated animals, arterial pH, $PCO_2$ and plasma bicarbonate concentration decreased, showing a metabolic acidosis. Urine pH and urinary bicarbonate excretion increased and titratable acid excretion decreased with no change in ammonium excretion. In renal cortical brush-border membrane vesicles derived from Cd-exposed animals, the $Na^+/H^+$ antiporter activity was significantly attenuated. These results indicate that chronic exposures to Cd impair the proximal tubular mechanism for $H^+$ secretion (i.e., $Na^+/H^+$ antiport), leading to a metabolic acidosis.

In this study, we will describe a new design of carbon nanotubes tip. Single-walled carbon nanotubes produced using high-pressure CO over Fe particles (HiPCO) at CNI, Houston, TX used in this study. These tips were manufactured by employing a drawing technique using glass puller. Field electron microscopies with tips (cathode) to screen (Anode) separation of ~10 mm was used to characterize the electron emitters. The system was evacuated down to base pressure of (${\sim}10^{-8}$ mbar) when baked at up to (${\sim}200^{\circ}C$) over night. An electron field emission patterns, as well as current versus voltage characteristics and Fowler-Nordheim plots, are discussed.

Authors had performed experimental study for ventilatory functions & pulmonary hemodynamics following reimplantation of lung. Preoperative & postoperative hemodynamic studies were obtained. A significant reduction in arterial $PO_2$ and $PCO_2$ was observed with the first few days. But these changes returned to near control levels from 1 week after operation in long-term survivors. Also abnormal pulmonary hemodynamic values returned toward control levels within 1 to 3 weeks, with the exception of a residual increase in pulmonary vascular resistance. Microscopically minimal focal pulmonary edema and limited alveolar infiltration developed in the reimplanted lung. But these changes never increased after the their postoperative day and were completely resolved by 1 to 3 weeks after autotransplantation.

Cardiorespiratory variables were measured in flounder Paralicthys olivaceus exposed to acidified seawater equilibrated with a gas mixture containing 5% $CO_2$ gas for 72 h at $20^{\circ}C$. It was found that $CO_2$ produced a significant increase in arterial $PCO_2$ ($PaCO_2$) and significant decreases in arterial pH (pHa). $CO_2$ transiently increased heart rate within 30 min of exposure. After cardiac output was elevated by the increase in heart rate within 30 min, was then reduced by the decrease in both stroke volume and heart rate. The heart responses of flounder differ from those of yellowtail to high $CO_2$ environment.
