어류가공시 부산물로 얻어지는 어피를 보다 효율적으로 이용하기 위하여 가자미피로부터 열수추출법으로 젤라틴을 추출한 후 이의 기능성 개선을 위해 L-leucine alkyl ester를 도입시킨 젤라틴의 기능성을 공업적 유화제인 Tween-60과 비교 검토하였다. 시제한 L-leucine alkyl ester가 도입된 젤라틴(EMFSG)의 분자량은 $EMFSG-C_2$와 $EMFSG-C_4$가 각각 20.5kDa, 19.5kDa였으나 $EMFSG-C_6,\;C_8,\;C_{10}$은 모두 16.5kDa이었다. 유화성과 유화점도는 도입된 탄소수가 증가할 수록 증가하는 경향을 보였으나, 유화안정성 및 포말안정성은 $EMFSG-C_6$, 포말성은 $EMFSG-C_8$가 각각 가장 우수하였다. 전기전도율은 임계미셀농도 지점까지는 비례적으로 증가를 보이다가 그 이후로는 증가율이 감소되었으며, $EMFSG-C_{10}$의 임계미셀농도가 가장 낮았다. 그리고 유화입자가 표면에 흡착되는데는 1시간, 1시간 후의 표면장력은 $EMFSG-C_{10}$의 임계미셀농도가 가장 낮은 농도인 $0.05\%$, 또 가장 낮은 35dyne/cm의 표면장력을 나타내었다. 이러한 표면장력의 측정 결과에 의해서 각 분자당 표면적은 $54.3{\AA}^2$로서 가장 조밀하게 분포되었으며, 현미경 관찰에 의한 결과와 일치함을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과에 의해, $EMFSG-C_{10}$의 기능성이 가장 우수하였으며, 모든 EMFSG는 대체로 대조구인 Tween-60보다 우수하였다. 그러므로 유화제로서의 이용이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

아세틸 헥사펩타이드 8 (AH8)은 보톡스 메커니즘을 응용한 주름 개선 펩타이드 소재로, 보톡스의 타겟인 synatosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP25) N말단 서열을 모방하여 개발되었다. 주름 개선 효과가 보고되고 있지만 큰 분자량과 친수성 성질에 의하여 피부 흡수는 잘 되지 않는다는 문제가 있다. 따라서 피부보습 성분 중에서 AH8의 피부 흡수를 증가시켜 줄 수 있는 물질을 탐색하였는데, 히알루론산(HA)이 AH8의 피부 흡수를 증가시켰다. 형광물질로 표지한 AH8만 $Micropig^{(R)}$ skin 에 발라주면 대부분 각질을 투과하지 못하고 각질층에 존재하였다. 반면, HA를 함께 도포한 경우에는 각질층을 투과하여 표피, 진피로 흡수된 AH8가 증가하는 것을 형광 이미지 분석을 통해 확인했다. 특히 5 kDa 저분자량 HA가 500 kDa, 2000 kDa HA보다 피부 흡수를 더 많이 증가시켰다. HA가 피부 각질층에 미치는 영향을 푸리에변환 적외 분광법(Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, FTIR)으로 분석해보니, 고분자량 HA는 각질 수분 함량을 증가시키고, 저분자량 HA는 지질층의 유동성을 증가시키는 경향성이 있었다. 따라서 HA는 AH8의 피부 흡수를 증가시켜 주름 개선 효과를 향상시켜 줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In order to investigate the relationship between the incidence of displaced abomasum and feeding, the actual feeding practices and chemical compositions of roughage were examined in 2 kinds of farms at Tokachi district in Hokkaido. Examination of animal health records revealed that the annual milk yield per cow in high incidence (H-DA) farms was significantly higher than that in low incidence (L-DA) farms. The amount of concentrates fed in H-DA farms tended to be higher than that in L-DA farms during lactation. Compared to L-DA farms, the amount of juicy roughage (corn silage and grass silage) and dry roughage (hay, hay cube and roll wrap silage) during lactation in H-DA farms tended to be higher and lower, respectively. Moreover, the amount of roughage and the ratio of roughage to concentrates in H-DA farms tended to be lower than in L-DA farms. The survey indicated that displaced abomasum was associated with insufficient feeding of dietary fiber and overfeeding of concentrates.

Purpose/Methods: Repeated administration of methamphetamine (METH) produces high extracellular levels of dopamine (DA) and subsequent striatal DA terminal damage. The effect of MK-801, a noncompetitive N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist, on METH-induced changes in DA transporter (DAT) and DA release evoked by an acute METH challenge was evaluated in rodent striatum uslng $[^3H]$]WIN 38,428 ex vivo auto-radiography and in vivo microdialysis. Results: Four injections of METH (10 mg/kg, i.p.), each given 2 h apart, produced 71% decrease in DAT levels in mouse striatum 3 d after administration. Pretreatment with MK-801 (2.5 mg/kg, i.p.) 15 min before each of the four METH injections protected completely against striatal DAT depletions. Four injections of MK-801 alone did not significantly change striatal DAT levels. Striatal DA release evoked by an acute METH challenge (4 mg/kg, i.p.) at 3 d after repeated administration of METH in rats was decreased but significant compared with controls, which was attenuated by repeated pretreatment with MK-801. Also, repeated injections of MK-801 alone attenuated acute METH-induced striatal DA release 3 d after administration. Conclusion: These results suggest that repeated administration of MK-801 may exert a preventive effect against METH-induced DA terminal injury through long-term attenuation of DA release induced by METH and other stimuli.

The effects of 3 week treatment with haloperidol(2mg/kg/day, i.p.) on dopamine(DA) D2 receptor and DA metabolism in rat striata were studied at various time points after withdrawal from the drug treatment. Striatal DA D2 receptors were characterized with the radioligand 0.5nM [$^3H$]Spiperone. Dopamine(DA), homovanillic acid(HVA), 3,4-dihydroxyphenyl acetic acid(DOPAC) in rat striatum were measured with the high performance liquid chromatography. Drug withdrawal for 1 week induced significant increase in the number of D2 receptor in striatum after withdrawal for 1 week(p<0.05), and then this change was restored to control level during the withdrawal time of 2 and 4 weeks. There was no difference in striatal concentrations of DA and its metabolites among the groups. In conclusion, one-week withdrawal from chronic haloperidol treatment induced DA D2 receptor supersensitivity in the striatum, and that was normalized rapidly. Though this adaptive change in DA receptors, it may not affect the metabolism of DA in striatum.

Most previous researches for the hybrid composite materials such as FRMLs(Al/AFRP, Al/GFRP) have evaluated the fatigue delamination behavior using the traditional fracture mechanism. However, most previous researches have not generally been firmed yet. Because delamination growth behavior in hybrid composite should be consider delamination growth rate, $dA_D$/da using the delamination shape factors, fs instead of traditional fracture mechanic parameters. The major purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between delamination shape factor, fs and delamination growth rate, $dA_D$ . And a propose parameter on the delamination aspect ratio, b/a. The details of the study are as follow : 1) Relationship between crack length, a and delamination width,b. 2) Relationship between delamination aspect ration, b/a and delamination area rate,($(A_D)_{N}(A_D)_{ALL}$. 3) Variation of delamination growth rate, $dA_D/da$ was attendant on delamination shape factors, $fs_1$, $fs_2$, $fs_3$. The test results indicated the delamination growth rate depends on delamination shape factors.

A highly sensitive electrochemical detection method for dopamine (DA) has been developed by relying on a multiwalled carbon nanotube (CNT)-sol-gel titania-Nafion composite film modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The CNT-titania-Nafion/GC electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards DA. Therefore, the CNT-titania-Nafion/GC electrode showed improved voltammetric and amperometric responses for DA compared to those obtained with both titania-Nafion/GC and Nafion/GC electrodes. The CNT-titania-Nafion/GC electrode gave a linear response ($R^2$ = 0.999) for DA from $0.5\;{\mu}M$ to 0.5 mM with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of $0.1\;{\mu}M$ and a good sensitivity of 150 mA/M while other electrodes such as CNT-Nafion/GC, titania-Nafion/GC, and a bare GC gave a sensitivity of 89, 39, and 36 mA/M, respectively. Besides, the CNT-titania-Nafion/GC electrode displayed very fast response time within 2 s. The modified electrode showed good selectivity against ascorbic acid. The modified electrode showed good stability and reproducibility. The CNT-titania-Nafion/GC electrode was applied to the determination of DA in urine and serum samples.

This study describes the isolation of a Toxocara canis species-specific excretory-secretory(ES) antigen and the development of an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) based on this antigen. Analysis of the ES antigens of T. canis, Toxocara vitulorum, Ascaris lumbricoides and Necator americanus larval antigen was performed by SDS-PAGE followed by western blotting. A 57 kDa T. canis-specific antibody fraction(TcES-57) was identified by western blotting and labelling with anti-Toxocara antibodies(from experimental rabbits and human patients) and tracing with anti-human or anti-rabbit peroxidase conjugate. No protein fraction of 57 kDa was detected in ES or larval antigens collected from T. canis, T. vitulorum, A. lumbricoides and N. americanus. Using TcES-57, a specific anti-serum was produced in rabbits and a double sandwich ELISA was developed. This test was validated using known seropositive sera from toxocariasis patients, sera from A. lumbricoides or N. americanus patients, and 50 serum samples from cats. These tests revealed that TcES-57 antigen is specific to T. canis infection and does not cross react with sera of other related infections. Thus, ELISA based on TcES-57 antigen was proven to be an effective tool in the diagnosis of toxocariasis and studies on the role of T. canis in the epidemiology of human toxocariasis.

This work employs two models to quantify the size-segregated dry deposition fluxes of particle-bound N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ , N $H_4$$^{+}$, and S $O_4$$^{2-}$ along the coastal area of Jeju Island based on the chemical composition data of aerosol collected during the springtime of 1995. The two approaches produced fairly comparable results, despite the feature differences between the two models. The modelling results obtained indicated that the mean dry deposition velocity was around 0.4 cm $s^{-1}$ for N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ , 0.2 cm $s^{-1}$ for N $H_4$$^{+}$, and 0.3 cm $s^{-1}$ for S $O_4$$^{2-}$, and the dry deposition flux varied between 371~1368 $\mu\textrm{g}$ $m^{-2}$ da $y^{-1}$ for nitrate, 28~625 $\mu\textrm{g}$ $m^{-2}$ da $y^{-1}$ for ammonium, and 957~6088 $\mu\textrm{g}$ $m^{-2}$ da $y^{-1}$ for sulfate. Although difficulties in collecting giant and/or fine particles limited the understanding of the mass size distribution of particles and thus the ability to refine estimates of the dry deposition flux for the particulate matter, both models were still able to offer sufficient realism to explain the features of the available data collected from the coastal area of Jeju Island.and.
