살모넬라는 음식과 식수에서 흔히 나오는 중요한 병원체로 세계 곳곳에서 급성 위장염과 같은 감염증을 일으키며, 일반적으로 인간의 혈청형 임상종으로는 Salmonella enterica의 혈청형인 S. Typhimurium과 S. Enteritidis가 있다. 일반적인 검출 방법으로 살모넬라를 기본으로 하여 선택적인 배양으로 샘플을 수집하였고 살모넬라를 일으키는 군체의 특징을 생화학과 혈청학상인 테스트를 하였으나 이러한 방법들은 일반적으로 시간이 걸리고 높은 감도를 보이지 않았다. 최근, 등온증폭반응법과 real-time PCR법을 이용하여 높은 감도, 특이성으로 현재 병원성 박테리아에 빠르게 수행할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 등온증폭반응과 real-time PCR법을 사용하여 S. Typhimurium과 S. Enteritidis의 검출하였다. 선택적인 타겟 유전자로, invA를 살모넬라종의 염기서열에 특이적으로 임의복제 하였다. 등온증폭반응과 real-time PCR은 살모넬라종으로부터 임의의 염기서열을 증폭하여 검출하였고, invA는 S. Typhimurium과 S. Enteritidis의 두 가지 종을 모두 검출하였다. 이러한 등온증폭반응과 real-time PCR법으로 S.Typhimurium과 S. Enteritidis의 검출 가능성을 보였으며, 살모넬라 종에 대한 특이성, 민감성을 갖춘 유용한 검출방법을 제시하였다.

Objective: This study aimed to develop loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) combined with lateral flow dipstick (LFD) and compare it with LAMP-AGE, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and standard Salmonella culture as reference methods for detecting Salmonella contamination in animal products and animal production environmental samples. Methods: The SalInvA01 primer, derived from the InvA gene and designed as a new probe for LFD detection, was used in developing this study. Adjusting for optimal conditions by temperature, time, and reagent concentration includes evaluating the specificity and limit of detection. The sampling of 120 animal product samples and 350 animal production environmental samples was determined by LAMP-LFD, comparing LAMP-AGE, PCR, and the culture method. Results: Salmonella was amplified using optimal conditions for the LAMP reaction and a DNA probe for LFD at 63℃ for 60 minutes. The specificity test revealed no cross-reactivity with other microorganisms. The limit of detection of LAMP-LFD in pure culture was 3×10² CFU/mL (6 CFU/reaction) and 9.01 pg/μL in genomic DNA. The limit of detection of the LAMP-LFD using artificially inoculated in minced chicken samples with 5 hours of pre-enrichment was 3.4×10⁴ CFU/mL (680 CFU/reaction). For 120 animal product samples, Salmonella was detected by the culture method, LAMP-LFD, LAMP-AGE, and PCR in 10/120 (8.3%). In three hundred fifty animal production environmental samples, Salmonella was detected in 91/350 (26%) by the culture method, equivalent to the detection rates of LAMP-LFD and LAMP-AGE, while PCR achieved 86/350 (24.6%). When comparing sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and accuracy, LAMP-LFD showed the best results at 100%, 95.7%, 86.3%, and 96.6%, respectively. For Kappa index of LAMP-LFD, indicated nearly perfect agreement with culture method. Conclusion: The LAMP-LFD Salmonella detection, which used InvA gene, was highly specific, sensitive, and convenient for identifying Salmonella. Furthermore, this method could be used for Salmonella monitoring and primary screening in animal products and animal production environmental samples.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship and effects of variables both directly and indirectly (e.g., investment (INV), government expenditure (GE), unemployment rate (UR), economic growth (EG), and income inequality). The analytical phases consist, first, to transform the data using the Log Natural (Ln) method. Second, to check normality and multicollinearity of data. Third, to test direct effects of variables (government expenditure and investment effect on the unemployment rate and economic growth; investment on government expenditure; economic growth on unemployment rate; economic growth and unemployment rate on income inequality). Fourth, to test indirect effects using Sobel test, which involves UR and EG as intervening variable. Fifth, to test hypotheses with p-value < 0.05. The results of the study reveal that, of the 12 relationships, statistics show that 11 variations of the association have significant positive and negative effects. Theoretically, the different characters and goals of GE and INV in each country will have a different impact on EG and UR goals. The study provides an input, especially for the government. To create optimal EG through GE and INV, it is necessary to allocate budgets to industrial sectors that can absorb a massive labor force and to new economic growth sectors.

포스파티딜세린(Phosphatidylserine; PS)은 생체막에서 구조적인 역할을 담당하는 인지질로서, 생체 내 다양한 세포작용에 필수적인 신호전달 효소의 보조인자로서 작용하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 하지만, PS의 생리활성에 대한 연구는 거의 이루어지지 않았고, 특히 피부에서의 생리활성에 대한 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 무모생쥐의 피부에 tape-stripping으로 경표피수분손실(TEWL)의 증가를 유도한 후, PS를 도포함으로써 그 손실을 현저히 감소시켰다. 또한, PS 도포군의 피부에서 세라마이드 함량이 증가된 사실을 확인한 바 있다. PS 도포군에서 non-hydroxyl 세라마이드와 glucosyl 세라마이드의 함량이 비처리군과 비교하여 각각 1.4배와 1.6배로 증가하였다. PS는 또한 피부각질세포의 분화를 촉진하였다. 피부각질세포에 PS를 처리함으로써 세포 형태가 분화상을 띄고 있음을 현미경 상에서 확인하였고, 표피분화의 특이적 표지 단백질인 Involucrin (INV)과 Transglutaminase 1 (TG'ase 1)의 발현이 각각 3.5배와 3배로 현저히 증가하였음을 웨스턴 블랏을 통하여 확인하였다. 또한 무모생쥐 피부에 PS를 도포한 결과 INV와 loricrin 단백질 발현이 증가하였다. 본 연구는 PS가 피부에서 생리활성을 나타낸다는 최초의 증거를 제시하며, 구체적으로는 각질세포 분화를 촉진함으로써 피부 세라마이드 함량을 증가시키고 경표피 수분손실을 감소시켜 궁극적으로 피부장벽을 강화하는 작용을 한다는 것을 보여준다.

Non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars remain a potential threat to human health and many animals including beef cattle, broiler chickens, and pigs which possible sources of non-typhoidal salmonellosis in human. In this study, the cecal contents of slaughtered pigs were examined for Salmonella serovar prevalence. The characteristics of the isolates, including antimicrobial resistance patterns and virulence genes, were studied along with the reference strain S typhimurium ATCC 13311. Out of 640 sample, 137 Salmonella(21.4%) were isolated and their serovar were identified S typhimurium 83 strains(60.6%), S agona 10 strains(7.3%), S schwarzengrund 4 strains(2.9%), S derby 4 strains(2.9%), S ayinde 1 strains(0.7%), and untypable 35 strains(25.5%). All 83 S typhimurium strains(100%) were multi-drug resistance to at least 7 antibiotics, and 20 strains(24.1%) of 83 isolates were R-type ACSSuT. Examination of virulent gene by PCR revealed that 73 S typimurium field isolates(88%) have a invA gene and 24 strains(28.9%) have a spvC gene. Consequently, S typhimurium infection in slaughtered pigs was relatively to appear high prevalence in their herds which suggested that it should be necessary for herd health monitoring and surveillance.

We have established a SYBR Green-based realtime PCR method using AnyDirect solution, which enhances PCR from whole blood, for direct amplification of the virA gene of Shigella flexneri and the invA gene of Salmonella typhimurium from human feces without prior DNA purification. When we compared the efficiency of conventional or realtime PCR amplification of the virA and invA genes from the supernatant of boiled feces supplemented with S. flexneri and S. typhimurium in the presence or absence of AnyDirect solution, amplification products were detected only in reactions to which AnyDirect solution had been added. The detection limit of real-time PCR was $1{\times}10^4\;CFU/g$ feces for S. flexneri and $2{\times}10^4\;CFU/g$ feces for S. typhimurium; this sensitivity level was comparable to other studies. Our real-time PCR assay with AnyDirect solution is simple, rapid, sensitive, and specific, and allows simultaneous detection of S. flexneri and S. typhimurium directly from fecal samples without prior DNA purification.

This study was conducted on financial data of 38 economic groups listed on Vietnam's stock market for the period 2009 - 2019 and it aims to provide an empirical evidence on the impact of working capital management policy on performance in all phases of the economic cycle of Vietnamese economic groups. The study uses FGLS estimation method with 2 dependent variables ROA, GOP, independent variables including INV, AR, AP, CCC, dummy variable representing different phases of the economic cycle, variables Control includes CAT, CR, LEV, SZ, GR. Research shows that the greater the level of investment by companies in liquid assets corresponding to a certain level of activity (shown by average days of inventory (INV), average days of collection. (AR), cash flow cycle (CCC)) the lower the rate of return on assets. The study also provides additional evidence of the negative effects of economic crisis on the performance of economic groups. The study also shows that the number of short-term asset cycles has a positive impact on operational efficiency, and the level of debt use has a negative impact on operational efficiency. This result implies that the managers of economic groups can increase the efficiency of businesses through a reasonable working capital policy.
