Frog or toad is an animal adoration of ancient ancestors in ethnic minorities in South China, in Li tribe tradition, frog is not only a symbol of avoiding evil and the expression of maternal love, but also the decoration of missing the ancestors. This article has discussed the origin of frog pattern, summarized the frog pattern's forms in Li brocade. At last also discussed the common frog pattern in Li tribe.

The capacitance of nonlinear component such as a CMOS inverter varies largely around the threshold voltage. We measured the far-end crosstalk of two parallel microstrip lines with the CMOS inverter load near the threshold voltage of the CMOS inverter, The negative voltage of the crosstalk agrees with that for a 4pF capacitor toad. The positive voltage of the crosstalk hardly changes of the amplitude of the input step voltage.

무당개구리 (Bombina orientalis Boulenger) 腹皮의 赤色 發現에 관여하는 赤色素細胞의 分化 過程을 電子顯微鏡으로 관찰하였다. 成體에서 관찰되는 赤色素細胞의 전형적인 구조는, 주위의 電子密度가 내부보다 낮은 多量의 carotenoid 顆粒들과, 불규칙한 膜狀, 纖維狀 EH는 同心圓狀의 lamella 構造를 가지는 小量의 pterinosome들이 腹皮의 基低膜을 따라 뻗어있는 赤色素細胞의 突起 속에 치밀하게 채워진 形態를 하고 있다. 分化된 最初의 赤色素細胞는 變態期의 前肢 출현시기를 전후하여, 外膜이 없고 電子密度가 낮은 carotenoid 顆粒이 뭉쳐져 있는 狀態로 나타나며 pterinosome은 관찰되지 않는다. 腹皮의 赤色이 外部로 발현되기 시작하는 시기는 대\ulcorner 變態 後 $1 \\sim 2$週가 경과한 뒤이며, 이 시기에 未分化된 pterinosome들이 나타나기 시작한다. 産卵 後 1年이 경과한 어린 개구리에서 발현되는 外部 體色은 성숙한 成體와 동일하였지만, 관찰되는 色素 顆粒의 形態는 carotenoid 축적의 정도가 낮은 상태이며, pterinosome의 分化도 成體에 비해 현저하지 않았다.

Objectives: Bufonis venonum (BV) is toad venom and is the dried, white secretions of the auricular and the skin glands of toads. This study was performed to evaluate the toxicity of intravenous injection of Bufonis venonum pharmacopuncture (BVP) through a single-dose test with sprague-dawley (SD) rats. Methods: Twenty male and 20 female 6-week-old SD rats were injected intravenously in the caudal vein with BVP or normal saline. The animals were divided into four groups with five female and five male rats per group: the control group injected with normal saline, the low-dosage group injected with 0.1 mL/animal of BVP, the medium-dosage group injected with 0.5 mL/animal of BVP and the high-dosage group injected with 1.0 mL/animal of BVP. We performed clinical observations every day and body weight measurements on days 3, 7 and 14 after the injection. We also conducted hematology, serum biochemistry, and histological observations immediately after the observation period. Results: No mortalities were observed in any experimental group. Paleness occurred in the medium- and the high-dosage groups, and congestion on tails was observed in females in the medium- and the high-dosage groups. No significant changes in weight, hematology, serum biochemistry, and histological observations that could be attributed to the intravenous injection of BVP were observed in any experimental group. Conclusion: The lethal dose of intravenously-administered BVP in SD rats is over 1.0 mL/animal.

Previously, we have isolated authentic bombesin and another bombesin like peptide named bombesin like immunoreactivity (BLI)-K2 from the skin of Korean fire-bellied toad, Bombina orientalis. In the present study, we have newly purified three heterogeneous forms of BLI named BLI-K3, BLI-K4, and BLI-K5 from side fractions obtained in previous isolation of bombesin like peptide. The BLIs were separated into five peaks on a column of $C_{18}$ preparative HPLC. Among them, three minor peaks containing BLI-K3, K4, and K5 were purified by means of sequential chromatography on the columns of SP cation exchange HPLC and $C_{18}$ reverse phase HPLC. The purified BLI-K3 and K4 showed high binding affinity to an anti-bombesin serum (LBE 2G-2) with binding potency of 72 and 95%, respectively, relative to that of bombesin. However, they did not possess any distinctive biological activity of bombesin like peptide. On the contrary, the biological activity of BLI-K5 was similar to that of bombesin but its binding affinity to an anti-bombesin serum was low. The results indicate that three heterogeneous forms of BLI were coexpressed with bombesin and BLI-K2 in the skin of B. orientalis. All forms of the purified BLI in the present study were immunologically active but only BLI-K5 possessed the distinctive biological activity of bombesin like peptide.

피부선이 잘 발달되어 있는 Bombina속 중에서 유일하게 국내에 서식하는 무당개구리를 재료로 하여 피부 점액선의 미세구조와 점액분비물질의 조직화학적 성질을 광학 및 전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 무당개구리의 점액선은 진피에 위치한 단포상선으로서 선분비부는 외부의 근상피세포층과 내부의 선상피세포층으로 이루어져 있었다. 조직화학반응의 결과, 점액선에서 생성되는 물질의 주성분이 산성다당류임을 확인하였으며, 배피에 비해 복피에서 강한 양성반응을 나타내었다. 또한 주사전자현미경을 이용한 피부표면의 관찰 결과, 점액선의 개구부는 피부의 표면에 돌출된 식물의 기공과 비슷한 모양을 하고 있으며, 과립선의 개구부에 비해 분포밀도는 높았으나 크기는 소형인 것으로 관찰되었다. 점액선의 선상피세포층에는 점액분비세포와 미토콘드리아가 잘 발달되어 있는 세포의 2종류로 이루어져 있었고, 선의 대부분을 차지하고 있는 점액분비세포는 세포의 분화정도에 따라서 성숙 또는 미성숙된 세포로 구분되었으며, 세포질 내에 함유된 점액분비물질의 주변에서는 조면소포체가 잘 발달되어 있었다.

This research is to apply suitable natural ecosystem evaluation criteria in order to develop the ecosystem conservation, restoration and ways to build substitute habitats as a compensation plan for damaged soundly natural ecosystems in small-scale projects such as resource recovery facility, filtration, etc. The environmental ecology evaluation i.e. generally based on their actual vegetation, community structure, wildlife, water system survey were measured the primary plans for reflecting unique natural environment level of site. As a result, it is necessary to conserve the land in fallow type of wetland, good conservative condition of deciduous forest, wetlanded watercourse for amphibia and reptiles crossing. However, the plan of filtration plant was destroyed wetland(sound ecosystem), natural forest, asian toad spawning area. According to the result of it schemed to build alternative wetland and spawning area, plan to healthy ecosystem and surface soil transplantation as compensation plan. The alternative wetland and spawning area are not only created a various water levels like depth of water is $0{\sim}30cm,\;30{\sim}60cm$, more than 1.5m but also it leads to asian toad spawning and wildlife inhabitant. Moreover, the ecosystem and surface soil transplantation be applied to use the Quercus acutissima forest resources(114 upper trees, 71 canopy trees, 401 shrubs) and surface soil$(5,072m^3)$ in ecology creation sets.

Bufonis Venenum is a toad venom and its main components are bufadienolides, namely resibufogenin, bufalin and cinobufagin. The desensitizing effect of Bufonis Venenum is useful for the treatment of the premature ejaculation in Chinese medicine. But, minor components of Bufonis Venenum cause problems such as topical burring, pain, and erectile dysfunction. To clarify and eliminate the components responsible for these side effects, we prepared two extracts of Bufonis Venenum with either 70% ethanol or ethylacetate and tested their pharmacological effects. The extract of Bufonis Venenum with 70% ethanol produced pain response in rat hind paw, and exhibited contraction of rabbit corpus cavernosal muscle in vitro. On the other hand, the ethylacetate extract did not cause pain and smooth muscle contraction. The desensitizing effect of the ethylacetate extract was similar to that of the 70% ethanol extract. In conclusion, these results show that the extract of Bufonis Venenum with ethylacetate does not have the components causing side effects and deserve further study for therapeutic potential in premature ejaculation in men.

Operation simulation is a key factor to evaluate investment and operation in a power utility. Probabilistic production simulation is of major concern. With pumped-storage plant, production simulation is not an easy task, because its economy should fully be exploited. In addition, usual operation interval is a week rather than a day. Most existing models are based on approximate production simulation such as adopting simple priority orders of generations. This study is based on the more elaborate model developed by authors. Further, a policy of weekly coordination is established based on the Maximum Principle. Chronological load curve instead of usual load duration curve is used and the accuracy in simulation is enhahced. Resulting economics are compared. Deviation between these two toad curve is shown.
