  • Mitis group streptococci (MGS) were classified based on the nucleotide sequences 16S rRNA gene (16S rDNA) and comprised 13 Streptococcus species. However, 16S rDNA homogeneity among MGS was too high to discriminate between clinical strains at the species level, notably between Streptococcus mitis, Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, and Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae. The purpose of this study was to discriminate between 37 strains of MGS isolated from Korean oral cavities using phylogenetic analysis of the DNA-dependant RNA polymerase beta-subunit gene (rpoB). 16S rDNA and rpoB from clinical strains of MGS were sequenced using the dideoxy chain termination method and analyzed using MEGA version 5 software. The resulting phylogenetic data showed that the rpoB sequences could delineate clinical strains of MGS at the species level. Phylogenetic analysis of rpoB is therefore a useful approach for identifying MGS at the species level.

  • This study was conducted to see the influence of additives and fermentation periods on Mott grass silage (MGS) characteristics, its chemical composition and to compare the digestion kinetics of Mott grass (MG) and MGS in Nili buffaloes. Mott grass chopped with a locally manufactured chopper was ensiled using two additives, cane molasses and crushed corn grains each at 2, 4 and 6% of forage DM for 30 and 40 days in laboratory silos. The pH, lactic acid concentration, dry matter (DM), crude protein and fiber fractions of MGS were not affected by the type or level of additive and fermentation periods. The non-significant pH lactic acid concentration, and chemical composition of MGS indicated that the both molasses and crushed corn were utilized at similar rate for the growth of lactic acid bacteria and production of organic acids. The MG ensiled with molasses at 2% of fodder DM for 30 days was screened out for in situ digestion kinetics in Nili buffaloes. Ruminal DM and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) degradabilities of MGS were significantly (p<0.05) higher than that of MG. The DM and NDF rate of degradation, lag time and extent of degradation was nonsignificant between MGS and MG. The higher ruminal degradation of DM and NDF of MGS than MG was probably a reflection of fermentation of MG during ensilation that improved its degradability by improving the availability of easily degradable structural polysaccharides to ruminal microbial population. The results in the present study have indicated that MG ensiled with either 2% molasses or 2% crushed corn for 30 days has better nutritive value for buffalo.

  • 광물찌꺼기에는 다양한 종류의 중금속이 함유되어 있어, 국내외에서 광물찌꺼기로부터 중금속을 제거하기 위해 많은 연구가 이루어졌으나, 중금속을 제거하기에는 여러 가지 문제점과 제약이 따르기 때문에 한계가 있었다. 따라서 이를 해결하고자 본 연구에서는 미립자의 선별까지도 가능한 다중비중선별기(Multi-gravity separator, MGS)를 사용하여 광물찌꺼기에 함유된 비소를 제거하기 위한 비중선별실험을 수행하였다. MGS를 이용하여 비중선별에 의해 비중이 높은 비소를 함유한 광물을 제거하고자 경사각, 세척수량, 광액농도, 드럼의 회전속도, 급광량에 따른 영향을 확인하였다. 실험결과 최적실험 조건인 MGS의 경사각 $3^{\circ}$, 세척수량 5 l/min., 광액농도 30%, 드럼 회전속도 208 rpm, 그리고 급광량 265.24 g/min. 에서 As 제거율과 산출율이 각각 88.21%와 92.25%인 결과를 얻었다.

  • The purposes of this study were to determine correlations between the Berg Balance Test (BBS), Timed -UP & Go Test, Fugl Meyer-L/E, Balance, Sensory (FM-L/E, B, S), Motor Assessment Scale-Gait (MAS-G), Comfortable maximal Gait Speed (C MGS), and the Modified Barthel Index (MBI). The subjects were 40 stroke patients of the Korea National Rehabilitation Center in Seoul. Main outcome measures were Balance control (BBS, FM-B), Gait (TUG, C MGS, MAS-G), ADL (MBI) and Motor Function of Lower Extremities (FM-L/E, S). The data were analyzed using Pearson product correlation. FM scales between other clinical and instrumental indexes and multiple stepwise regression analyses were performed to identify prognostic factors for Balance, Gait and ADL Motor Function of Lower Extremity inclinations. The results of this study were as follows: The BBS, FM-L/E, balance, sensory and MBI showed positive correlation relations, but TUG and C MGS showed negative correlations. The sensory factor of the FM-scale showed the strongest variance in predicting BBS. However the FM-balance showed the strongest variance in predicting TUG, MAS-G and C MGS. The use of both quantitative and qualitative scales was shown to be a good measuring instrument for the classification of the general clinical performance of the patients.

  • Mobile Grocery Shopping (MGS) has become the New Normal as the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way consumers shop. Drawing on the framework of Customer Journey Map (CJM), this study explores consumers' MGS by identifying specific stages of Customer Journey and comparing consumers' satisfaction between PC-based online and mobile shopping experiences at each stage throughout the journey. This study collected 562 responses from subjects who have mobile and PC-based grocery shopping experiences at the major domestic e-Commerce platforms. Independent t-test analysis showed that differences in satisfaction between mobile and online shopping experiences exist in 5 main stages and 16 sub-stages of CJM. The results of service and technological innovation mentioned in the actual industry report were seen as empirical results leading to continued use of MGS as well as customer satisfaction. The findings of this study contribute to the research stream on Customer Journey by adopting the structure of CJM and analyzing specific stages of the journey in the context of MGS. Managerial implications for mobile-based business practitioners are also discussed.

  • Morning glory syndrome (MGS) is a rare congenital optic disc anomaly with a characteristic fundal finding with severe visual impairment. It may occur in association with various systemic manifestations, even though most of the reported cases were isolated. A 6-year-old male visited the nephrology clinic with a history of microscopic hematuria and at the age of 12 years, he was diagnosed thin glomerular basement membrane nephropathy by kidney biopsy. After the following years, the patient had progressive deterioration of visual acuity, and diagnosed as MGS. Whole Exome Sequencing of this patient and his mother revealed heterozygous COL4A4 mutations [c.81_86del (p.Ile29_Leu30del)]. It is more reasonable to consider MGS seen in this patient as a coincidental finding of autosomal dominant Alport syndrome. To our knowledge, this case represents the first case report of autosomal dominant Alport syndrome associated with MGS.

  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae was metabolically engineered to improve 1,2-propanediol production. Deletion of the tpil (triosephosphate isomerase) gene in S. cerevisiae increased the carbon flux to DHAP (dihydroxylacetone phosphate) in glycolysis, resulting in increased glycerol production. Then, the mgs and gldA genes, the products of which convert DHAP to l,2-propanediol, were introduced to the tpil-deficient strain using a multicopy plasmid. As expected, the intracellular level of methylglyoxal was increased by introduction of the mgs gene in S. cerevisiae and that of 1,2-propanediol by introduction of both the mgs and gldA genes. As a result, 1.11 g/l of 1,2-propanediol was achieved in flask culture.

  • SVC(Scalable Video Coding)는 시간-공간-화질의 다양한 스케일러빌러티를 통하여 이종의 망과 다양한 단말 환경에서 컨버전스 미디어 서비스를 제공하기 위한 새로운 비디오 부호화 표준이다. 본 논문에서는 IP 망에서의 패킷 손실(packet loss)로 인한 SVC의 성능을 분석하고 이를 바탕으로 버퍼 넘침(buffer overflow)으로 인한 패킷 손실에 대한 효과적인 SVC 적응(adaptation) 기법을 제시 한다. 특히, IP 망을 통하여 전송되는 SVC는 시간, 공간 스케일러빌리티뿐만 아니라 많은 수의 화질 계층을 포함하여 패킷 기반의 적응에 효과적인 MGS(Medium-Grained Scalability) 기반의 화질 스케일러빌리티를 포함하는 것으로 가정한다. MGS를 포함한 SVC의 패킷 손실로 인한 품질의 영향을 분석한다. 본 논문의 MGS SVC 적응 기법은 접근단위(AU: Access Unit) 또는 GOP 단위로 적응단위를 설정하고 적응단위의 지연이 허용된다는 가정 하에 적응단위내에서 패킷 간의 의존성이 낮은 패킷부터 선택적으로 제거함으로써 패킷 손실로 인한 화질 열화를 최소화하도록 한다. 모의실험을 통하여 패킷 손실로 인한 품질 성능을 정량적으로 분석하고 제안한 적응 기법이 패킷 손실에 효과적으로 대응할 수 있음을 보인다.
