인삼의 재배환경에 따른 잔류특성을 조사하고 살포 농약의 행적을 알아보기 위하여 5년근 인삼포에 덮개 유무와 인삼 줄기의 움직임으로 생긴 구멍을 흙으로 메우는 방법 여부의 서로 다른 조건에서 azoxystrobin (20% SC)을 안전사용기준의 기준량과 배량농도로 수확 7일전까지 10일 간격으로 4회 살포하였으며, 행적 구명 시험을 위해서는 기준량을 1회 살포한 후 분석시료를 채취하였다. 재배기간 중 덮개를 설치하고 구멍을 막은 경우가 잔류량이 낮아 덮개 설치와 구멍 메우기가 잔류량 감소에 기여하는 것으로 판단되었다. 인삼에 살포한 azoxystrobin은 비표면적이 큰 잎에 가장 많이 분포하였으며, 살포시기가 인삼의 수확기에 근접할수록 잎 중 잔류량은 감소하였으나 토양표면의 검출량은 증가하였다. 뇌두를 포함한 인삼 뿌리 중 시험농약의 분포율은 약 0.1%이었으며, 인삼 섭취 시 뇌두를 제거할 경우 12.7-20.4%(평균 16.6%)의 잔류농약 섭취를 감소시키는 효과가 있었다.

Objectives This paper aims to understand the emotional-biological pathogenesis of eating disorders, and translate the understanding into new brain directed treatments. Methods The first part of the review sets the eating behavior into the context of what is now understood about the central control of appetite and molecular biology. The second part of the review sees how emotion relates to the brain circuit involving eating disorders. Results In general, patients with anorexia nervosa restricting type were less sensitive to reward, whereas patients with bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa binge purging type were more sensitive to it. The emotional life of people with eating disorders centers on food, weight, and shape. The abnormalities in social and emotional functioning both precede and persist outside of eating disorders. Conclusions Research into understanding the biological framework of the brain in eating disorders suggests that abnormalities may exist in emotional and information processing. This aspect can be translated into novel brain-directed treatments, particularly in anorexia nervosa.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to investigate the relationships between sleep quality, fatigue, depression and health promoting behavior by shift-work patterns in university hospital nurses. Methods: A cross-sectional, descriptive survey was conducted using a convenient sample. The self-administered questionnaires were given to 165 nurses (shift workers 91, non-shift workers 74) employed in two university hospital located in Seoul and Gyeunggi-do. Data were collected from February to March, 2010. Results: The shift workers showed significantly lower sleep quality and health promoting behavior, and higher fatigue than non-shift workers. There were significant correlations between fatigue, depression and health promoting behavior in shift workers. There were significant correlations between sleep quality, fatigue, depression and health promoting behavior in non-shift workers. In multiple linear regression analysis, after controlling for total work experiences, predictor of health promoting behavior in shift workers was only fatigue (${\beta}$=-.29, p<.001). Predictors of health promotion behavior in non-shift workers were depression (${\beta}$=-.37, p=.002) and fatigue (${\beta}$=-.27, p=.023). Conclusion: This study failed to provide a clear explanation why sleep quality does not have a comparable effect on health promotion behaviors of shift-workers as well as non-shift workers. However, future research is needed to determine the various risk factors influencing on health promotion behaviors by which shift-work pattern exacerbates fatigue.

Objectives The aim of this study is to explore the association among DRD4 polymorphism, temperament and alcohol drinking behavior of Koreans in their early adulthood. Method Participants were 172 healthy Korean adults (mean age $28.1{\pm}0.8$). Their temperament was assessed with the Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) and their alcohol drinking behavior were evaluated with a self-reported questionnaire including the CAGE and the Korean version of Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT-K). DRD4 exon III 48 base pair variable number of tandem repeats (VNTR) was genotyped by PCR. Results No significant association was found between DRD4 polymorphism and TCI temperament dimension (novelty seeking, harm avoidance, reward dependence, and persistence) as well as alcohol drinking behavior scales. However, novelty seeking was significantly associated with alcohol drinking behavior. The higher level of novelty seeking was associated with the higher severity index of drinking (B = -0.225, p < 0.001) and problematic alcohol use on the CAGE and AUDIT-K [Odds Ratio (OR) = 1.111, 95% Confidence Interval (CI) 1.021-1.209, p = 0.015, OR = 1.087, 95% CI 1.009-1.170, p = 0.028]. Conclusion In our study, while there is no significant association of DRD4 polymorphism with temperament and alcohol drinking behavior, novelty seeking affects problematic alcohol use. Results suggest that novelty seeking may play an important role in problematic alcohol use in young Korean adults.

실험실 조건에서 고구마 뒷날개흰밤나방의 교미 전 행동습성을 관찰하였다. 짝이 있고 어두운 상태에서 안테나를 치켜세우고 날개를 진동하는 습성을 보였으며, 암컷과 수컷 모두 날개를 진동하고 안테나를 치켜세우는 행동을 보이다가 수컷이 암컷에게로 날아가는 습성을 보였다. 불이 꺼진상태로 20여분이 지나면 안테나를 치켜세우는 반응을 보이기 시작하였으며 40분이 지났을 때부터 마치 짝을 유인하는 음향을 생성하듯이 날개를 빠르게 진동하는 반응을 보였다. 짝짓기는 우화 후 이튿날부터 관찰되었으며 대부분 4일에서 6일 사이에 짝짓기를 하였다. 짝짓기는 평균 207분 동안 지속되었고, 대부분 3회까지 반복적으로 교미를 하였다. 관찰결과를 종합적으로 분석해보면 암컷이 신호를 보내고 수컷이 이에 반응하는 것으로 보이며, 암컷이 내는 음향이 뒷날개흰밤나방의 교미전 행동습성에 관련되어 있을 가능성이 높은 것으로 판단되었다.

Fishes detect various sensory stimuli, which may be used to direct their behavior. Especially, the visual and water flow detection information are critical for locating prey, predators, and school formation. In this study, we examined the specific role of these two different type of stimulation (vision and vibration) during the obstacle avoidance behavior of carp, Cyprinus carpio. When a visual obstacle was presented, the carp efficiently turned and swam away in the opposite direction. In contrast, vibration stimulation of the left or right side with a vibrator did not induce strong turning behavior. The vibrator only regulated the direction of turning when presented in combination with the visual obstacle. Our results provide first evidence on the innate capacity that dynamically coordinates visual and vibration signals in fish and give insights on the novel modulation method of fish behavior without training.

사람을 비롯한 대부분의 동물들은 주변 환경의 영향을 받아 주기적인 생활을 영위하고 있다. 지구의 자전 및 공전으로 그리고 국소적으로 발생되는 주기적인 변화는 생명체의 행동으로 뚜렷하게 표출된다. 이러한 환경의 주기적인 변화는 오랜 기간의 진화과정을 통하여 생명체 내의 유전자로 각인되었으며, 이 유전자들은 발생 과정을 포함하는 성장 과정에서 리듬으로 발현된다. 환경의 변화는 결국 유전자로 정착하여 생체 시계로서 작용하며, 시상하부의 시신경교차상핵(suprachiasmatic nucleus, SCN)이 유력한 해부학적 위치이다. 따라서 생체 시계는 지구상에 살고 있는 생명체의 각종 리듬을 지배하여, 출생 및 사망, 수명, 행동, 생리, 세포 분열, 생화학적 반응 등등에 영향을 미친다. 리듬은 서서히 변화하는 환경의 변화에 맞도록 재조정된다. 생체 시계는 규칙적인 환경 변화를 예측하고 이에 미리 대비하게 하는 장점을 지니고 있다.

A mathematical competition model between normal flora and an invading pathogen was devised to allow analysis of bacterial infections in a host. The normal flora includes the various microorganisms that live on or within the host and act as a primary human immune system. Despite the important role of the normal flora, no mathematical study has been undertaken on models of the interaction between it and invading pathogens against a background of antibiotic treatment. To quantify key elements of bacterial behavior in a host, pairs of nonlinear differential equations were used to describe three categories of human health conditions, namely, healthy, latent infection, and active infection. In addition, a cutoff value was proposed to represent the minimum population level required for survival. The recovery of normal flora after antibiotic treatment was also included in the simulation because of its relation to human health recovery. The significance of each simulation parameter for the bacterial growth model was investigated. The devised simulation showed that bacterial proliferation rate, carrying capacity, initial population levels, and competition intensity have a significant effect on bacterial behavior. Consequently, a model was established to describe competition between normal flora and an infiltrating pathogen. Unlike other population models, the recovery process described by the devised model can describe the human health recovery mechanism.

The canine fearfulness is a behavioral trait known to have a genetic basis. This research analyzed genetic effects of the dopamine D4 receptor polymorphism on this behavior by postulating a mixed model of inheritance. Genotyping for the three different repeat polymorphism found in the third exon of the receptor gene was carried out for the population of the Korean native dogs. Four hundred fifty eight dogs with known pedigree were genotyped, and 264 individuals were tested for their fear responses to an experimenter, in which four different behavioral paradigms were adopted. Since the results assessed by principal factor analysis revealed a major factor explaining 69% of the total phenotypic variance, the subsequent analyses were conducted for this quantity. Analyses of the factor scores by estimating their posterior means indicated that there is a fixed effect exerted by the three different repeat polymorphism found in the D4 receptor as well as sex, in addition to unidentified polygenic effects. The phenotypic contribution of the D4 genotype was roughly estimated to be about 2%, which is a fraction of the total genetic effects responsible for more than 20% of the total phenotypic variance.
