For the scientific approaches and quality control of aloe wine as fundamental studies of industrialization and quality improvement, change of barbaloin content during the fermentation period and various characteristics of aloe wine were investigated. Alcohol of 6.35, 9.6%, and 11.3% in the 0.5% concentration of aloe powder was produced from 15%, 20%, and 25% addition of sugar in the wine mash, respectively, As the content of aloe powder is increased, production of alcohol was slightly decreased, indicating aloe powder might contain antimicrobial activity. The content of barbaloin in the 0.5% concentration of aloe powder was 4.2 mg/ml, 4.6 mg/ml and 2.21 mg/ml after 7, 10 and 30 day, respectively. The tasty characteristics of aloe wine brewed with aloe powder of 1.5% and 2.0% were most acceptable to the sensory panels.

Cyclic AMP receptor-like protein (Clp), is known to be a global transcriptional regulator for the expression of virulence factors in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc). Sequence analysis showed that Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) contains a gene that is strongly homologous to the Xcc clp. In order to determine the role of the Clp homolog in Xoo, a marker exchange mutant of $clp_{xoo4158}$ was generated. Virulence and virulence factors, such as the production of cellulase, xylanase, and extracellular polysaccharides (EPS) and swarming motility were significantly decreased in the $clp_{xoo4158}$ mutant. Moreover, the mutation caused the strain to be more sensitive to hydrogen peroxide and to over-produce siderophores. Complementation of the mutant restored the mutation-related phenotypes. Expression of $clp_{xoo4158}$, assessed by reverse-transcription realtime PCR and clp promoter activity, was significantly reduced in the rpfB, rpfF, rpfC, and rpfG mutants. These results suggest that the clp homolog, $clp_{xoo4158}$, is involved in the control of virulence and resistance against oxidative stress, and that expression of the gene is controlled by RpfC and RpfG through a diffusible signal factor (DSF) signal in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae KACC10859.

The effect of oyster shell meal, which is made of a simple crushing and alkaline calcium materials, on soil microbial properties, microbial biomass C, N and P contents, and enzyme activities were evaluated in silt loam soil. The oyster shell meal fertilizer was added at the rates of 0, 4, 8, 12 and $16Mg\;ha^{-1}$. Microbial biomass C, N and P contents were significantly increased with increasing application of oyster shell meal. Soil enzyme activities, such as urease, ${\beta}$-glucosidase and alkaline phosphomonesterase were increased significantly by shell meal application, due to increased soil pH towards neutral range and increased nutrient availability in soil. In particular, the increased microbial biomass P content and phosphomonoesterase activities were strongly correlated with available P content in soil. Conclusively, oyster shell meal fertilizer could be a good supplement to improve soil microbial activities.

Bone graft had been widely investigated for reconstruction of bone defects or acceleration of bone healing in orthopedics, neurosurgery and dental surgery. Autograft is the golden standard of bone graft but it is associated with donor site morbidity and is restricted in quantity. Xenograft has been researched an alternative method for autograft. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of new bone formation according to three different preparations of implants on rabbit xenograft. Cortical bone xenografts which made from bovine femoral cortical bone were treated by freezing, freeze-drying or defat-freezing implant preparations. They were transplanted into proximal diaphyseal shaft of bifibulae of 15 rabbits which were divided into three groups according to their implant preparation method. The fibulae transplantations were evaluated radiographically and examined osteoblast activity by bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP) biweekly for 16 weeks to observe new bone formation and union of the experimental defected region. New bone formation was observed in 7 cases in freeze-drying and defat-freezing group, respectively. Union of proximal and distal end of defected region, which was considered as success of bone graft, was observed in 4 cases (40%; 4 of 10 cases), respectively. In freezing group, new bone formation was observed in 6 cases but, there is no union observed. BALP value was increased over twice after two weeks of graft procedure in all union cases of freeze-drying and defat-freezing group (two of five animals, respectively) then gradually decreased to 16th week. In non-union cases, there is no significant variation in BALP value. Defat-freezing or freeze-drying preparations of implants are more efficacious in new bone formation than freezing method on rabbit xenograft. While it is difficult to propose which is superior between defat-freezing and freeze-drying, defatting of implants may enhance new bone formation in xenograft.

Current interest in ${\gamma}$-aminobutyric acid (GABA) has arisen from the convergence of several independent line of investigation leading to the demonstration that this and related substances are normal products of brain metabolism and that GABA has an important physiological action upon brain function as well as upon certain peripheral nervous structures. The interest for neurophysiologists has been enhanced by the importance of the discovery for the role of humoral mediator of synaptic transmission or regulator of neuronal activity in the central nervous system, particularly if it may shed some elight upon the nature of central inhibitory processes. In accordance with such an interest and importance, this work was performed in order to standardize the normal content as a preliminary investigation of so-called night active and daytime active animals GABA content in their brains when they are exposed to light and darkness. The method, through which the estimation has made in this work, was paper chromatographic method developed by Maynert and Klingman for the estimation of GABA content in animal tissues. The results obtained are summerized as follows: 1) GABA content in the cerebral cortex of house rat ranged from 90 to $310{\mu}g/gm$ of wet weight. 2) The content of GAGA ranging from 130 to $510{\mu}g/gm$ of wet weight was occurred from midbrain of the rat. 3) GABA content was ranged from 30 to $150 {\mu}g/gm$ of wet weight of the rat cerebellum. 4) The contents of fowl cerebral cortex, midbrain, and cerebellum are estimated as ranging 230-590, 250-620, $50-280{\mu}g/gm$ of wet weight, respectively. As a result, it may be concluded that among three brain tissues of both animals the midbrain is the highest region in GABA content. Fowl brain, on the other side, contains more higher GABA content than the house rat brain does.
