  • This investigation aimed to assess the appetite response changes of olive flounder to starving and re-feeding conditions. Three different feeding groups (2 weeks feeding, fed; 2 weeks starving, starved; and 1 week starving and 1 week feeding, re-fed) were established to examine the changes in appetite-related genes for each group. The weight gain of the fish was highest for the fed group and lowest for the starving group. Based on the daily feed intake (DFI) and cumulative feed intake (CFI), overall food intake was found to increase in the re-fed group more than in the fed group from week 1 to week 2 of the experiment. Hypocretin neuropeptide precursor (HCRT) and galanin receptor 1 (GAL-R1) mRNA expression in the brain of olive flounder were decreased in the starved group. Corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) was decreased in all experimental groups, except for the fed group. However, overall leptin concentrations in the plasma did not change across groups. Considering the differences between this study and previous studies on starving and feeding, various factors (except the production and expression mechanisms of appetite-related factors in response to starving) are likely acting on the appetite responses of the fish. In this study, a 1-week re-feeding period induced substantial effects on appetite response when compared to a 2-week feeding period. These findings show that even if re-feeding is performed after starving, the unbalance caused by the re-feeding can affect various physiological changes in fish by feed intake efficiency.

  • It has been known that $\gamma$-irradiation usually induces cell death in regenerating stem cell in normal tissues like skin, intestine and hematopoietic organ. The experiment were carried out to evaluate the early response of radiation injury in radiosensitive and intermediate radiosensitive tissues in feeding and starving rats with the doses of 3.5 and 7.0 Gy. The results of the study showed that the histological phenomenon was apoptosis in the doses of the radiation as the early response of tissue injury. Apoptosis were showed organ-specific and cellular specific responses suggesting that the selection of apoptosis be exactly focused on highly renewal organs and cells. It was interesting that the rats starved for 72 hours prior to irradiation induced less apoptosis in liver than fed rats. As for cellular responses it appeared that apoptotic cells were mostly distributed in ductal or periportal cells in liver of feeding rats unlikely in liver of Starving rots which showed no difference in zonal distribution. In salivary gland apoptotic cells in fed rats were highly induced in intercalating and ductal cell population than in acinar cell population although unlikely in starved rats. This study showed the value of apoptosis using the detection system of TUNEL for evaluating cellular damage after radiation injury and the diminished effect of starvation on cell damage after ionizing irradiation.

  • In this research, 3-hydroxypyridine(2-HP) metabolic ability of starving Arthrobacter crystallopoietes cell and the effect of humic acid on the metabolism of this starving cell were evaluated. 2-HP metabolic ability of exponential phase cell (acclimated cell) was much higher than that of lag phase cell (unacclimated cell) during starvation period. After 3 days of starvation, 2-HP half-life of the acclimated cell was 14 hours and that of the unacclimated cell was 46.5 hours. Humic acid enhanced the stability of 2-HP monooxygenase of starving co]1 and, after 2 days of starvation, the residual activity rate of this enzyme of the microbial cell starved in humic acid solution was 12% while the rate for control condition was 1.5%. After 14 days of starvation, 2-HP half-life for control condition was 43 hours and that for humic acid condition was 1.25 hour.

  • For the effective use of red seabream, the texture between red seabream muscles cultured by feeding and starving were compared. Moisture and crude lipid contents of red seabream muscle cultured by starving (RCS) were 72.7% and 3.7%, respectively, which was 3% higher in the moisture compared to that of red seabream muscle cultured by feeding (RCF), while 3% lower in the crude lipid. The hardness of RCS was $0.93\;kg/cm^2$, which was higher than that ($0.47\;kg/cm^2$) of RCF. No differences in total collagen content, acetic acid-solublized collagen content, its thermal denaturation temperature and SDS-PAGE patterns between RCS and RCF were found. The results suggested that the difference in muscle texture between RCS and RCF was probably due to the difference of lipid content.

  • Olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus larvae and early juveniles were reared for 43 days after hatching in order to observe the effects of starvation during development and metamorphosis. Morphological, histological and biochemical measurements were made to assess the nutritional condition during growth and starvation from pre-matamorphic through post-metamorphic phases. Two groups of fish were compared ; one with sufficient food supply and one under continuous starvation until death. Among morphometric analyses, both ratios of body height at anus/head height and pre-/post-anal lengths appeared to be sensitive to starvation during which substantial reduction was observed within a day of food deprivation. Histological variables as intestinal and rectal epithelial heights and gall bladder volume changed significantly with onset of starvation. The gut epithelial heights of starving fish decreased with advances in starvation, although they fluctuated during mid-metamorphic phase. In contrast, gall bladder volume increased remarkably soon after starvation. Ontogenetic changes in both gut epithelial height and gall bladder volume were evident, those associated with settlement and/or completion of metamorphosis. Abrupt decrease in the RNA/DNA ratios of starving fish were found right after onset of starvation. Even in the fed fish marked fluctuations in its ratios during metamorphosis were observed, evident by decreasing from late-metamorphic to post-metamorphic stages. These findings suggest that a combination of morphologically and histologically sensitive characteristics, and biochemical measurement could be utilized as a measure to evaluate nutritional condition related to starvation in wild olive flounder larvae and juveniles.

  • The influence of starvation on morphological change of the red sea bream larvae was examined at Song-ji fish hatchery, Tongyong-Gun, Kyongnam Provice in July 1988. The results obtained are as follows: 1) The larvae of red sea bream began to feed on rotifers in 2 days after hatching. In case of non-feeding, all of the larvae died in 5 days after hatching and the larvae which feeding delayed 1 and 2 days from normal first feeding schedule also died 100 in 6 days after hatching. 2) With the exhaustion of the yolk, the total length, body length, myotome height and gut height of unfed larvae decreased. 3) The ratio of height to myotome height in unfed larvae has declined most rapidly compare to other demensions while starving. At 5 days after hatching, the ratios of these of starving larvae and fed larvae were 0.306 and 0.010, respectively. 4) The morphology of starving larvae at 6 days after hatching are characterized as sharpened jaw, projected edge of lower part of clavicle and slender gut.

  • Research on food sources through DNA metabarcoding is being used for various organisms based on high resolution and reproducibility. In the study, we investigated the difference in food sources between pre and post-starving in the three bivalve species (Anemina acaeformis, Anodonta woodiana, and Unio douglasiae) through DNA metabarcoding using 18S rRNA V9 primer. The food source of pre-starving appeared in 87 genera, 71 families, 51 orders, 35 classes, and 22 phyla. The primary food sources were the zoo and phytoplankton, including Chlamydomonadales, Euglenales, Ploima, Sphaeropleales, and Stephanodiscales. However, all zoo and phytoplankton were not observed after starving except Schizopyrenida and Rotifera. In Levin's niche breadth analysis, the Bi index of A. woodiana is 0.3, which was higher than A. acaeformis(0.14) and U. douglasiae (0.21), indicating that they feed on various food sources. The niche overlap of A. acaeformis was measured as 0.78 in A. woodiana, 0.7 in U. douglasiae showing a relative high value compared to other bivalves. The trophic level of A. acaeformis, A. woodiana, and U. douglasiae based on the food source information were investigated as 2.0, 2.0, and 2.5, respectively. The results of the previous study on the trophic level using stable isotopes showed 1.8 to 2.4 values were similar to the results of this study. These results suggest that DNA metabarcoding can be an effective analyzing tool for the gut content in the bivalves.

  • 현대의 생산환경에서 널리 사용되고 있는 생산시스템의 형태는 FMS(Flexible Manufacturing System, 유연생산 시스템)로, FMS 는 다품종 소량생산과 생산성 향상이라는 두 가지 목표에 가장 적합한 형태라고 할 수 있다. 하지만 FMS에는 시스템의 효율을 저하시키는 blocking, starving, deadlock 등이 존재하며 이들의 영향을 줄이고자 재공재고의 일시적 저장공간인 버퍼를 설치하게 된다. 시스템내의 제약으로 인해 버퍼의 총 용량은 제한적이므로, 효율적인 버퍼관리는 시스템 성능 향상을 가능하게 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 FMS의 각 Workstation의 작업량을 고려한 버퍼 할당을 통해 시스템 효율 향상을 추구하고, 시뮬레이션 과정을 통해 검증해 보고자 한다.

  • FMS(Flexible Manufacturing System, 유연생산 시스템)는 1960년대 최초로 소개된 이후, 뛰어난 Throughput과 Flexibility로 지금까지 다양한 생산 현장에서 널리 활용되고 있다. 하지만 복잡한 Part의 흐름, 충분하지 못한 AGV(Automated Guided Vehicle) 등으로 인한 성능 저하는 가장 큰 장애물이라 할 수 있다. 이에 대한 대비책으로 시스템 내에 설치하는 버버는 일시적인 WIP(Work In Process, 재공재고)의 저장공간으로써 Blocking, Starving 등의 발생을 최소화하는 역할을 수행한다. 따라서 이러한 버퍼의 적절한 배치는 시스템 성능에 큰 영향을 미치게 되며, 이에 본 연구에서는 각 Workstation의 Workload를 고려해 각 버퍼의 적절한 Capacity를 결정하는 과정을 소개하며, 제시된 방법론의 실효성을 시뮬레이션을 통해 검증하고자 한다.

  • The influence of starvation on morphological change and survival rate of the left eye flounder larvae was examined at the KORDI laboratories in March, 1990. 1. The larvae of left eye flounder began of feed on rotifers in 5 days after hatching. In case of non-feeding, all of the larvae died in 11 days after hatching. The larvae which fed 1 day after the normal first feeding schedule grew normally but 100 of the larvae died in 14 days when the feeding was delayed for 2 days after hatching. 2. With the exhaustion of the yolk, the total length, body length, myotome height and gut height of unfed larvae decreased. Gut height is the most decreased demensions while starving. 3. The ratio of gut height to myotome height in unfed larvae has declined most rapidly compare to other demensions during the starvation. At 13 days after hatching, the ratios of these between fed and unfed larvae were 0.797 and 0.467, respectively. 4. The morphology of starving larvae were characterized as sharpened jaw, projected edge of lawer part of clavicle and slender gut.
