The considerable researches have been done on the change,1 associated with age in the blood picture of domestic animals, but a survey has not been of the blood picture in Thoroughbred fears in Korea. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to outline the range of values in clinically not\\\\`- mal Thoroughbred foals. Some blood chemical parameters from 3 days to 8 weeks of age were exam-ined to obtain normal values in Thoroughbred foal7. Blood samples were obtained from the jugular vein in 11 Thoroughbred foals and collected at 3 days, and at 1,2,4 and 8 weeks of age, respectively. The results obtained ill this study were summarized as follows: The packed cell volume (PCV) at 4 weeks of age was significantly lower than that at 3 days of age (P<0.01) and that al 2 and 8 weeks of age were straightly lower than that at 3 days of age (P<0.05). The total protein (TP) at 8 weeks of age was higher than that at 3 days, 1 and 2 weeks of age (P<0.05). The activity of aspartate ami-notransferase (AST) at 2,4 and 8 weeks of age were significantly higher than that at 3 days of age (P<0.01). The total bilirnbin showed a tendency to decrease gradually according to the weeks and that at 2,4 and 8 weeks of age were significantly lower than that at 3 days of age (P<0.01). The BUN at 1 and 8 weeks of ago were lower than that at 3 days of age (P<0.05). The concentration of Ca at 1 week of alee was higher than that at 3 days of age (P<0.05). The vitamin A and vitamin E showed a tendency to decrease gradually from 3 days to 4 weeks of age and increased slightly at 8 weeks of age.

This study carried out to investigate the genital tract bacterial flora of Thoroughbred mare in Jeju province during March and July, 2006. The specimens were collected from vaginal ucosa and clitorial fossa using a culture swab (BBL, USA) from 100 Thoroughbred mares. Colonies were selected blood and MacConkey agar plate, and identified as standard biochemical properties using Biolog system (Thermo, USA). In this study, 470 gram-negative strains were isolated more frequently than 249 gram-positive strains. We were Isolated Escherichia coli (19.8%), Proteus mirabillis (14.9%), Enterobacter nimipressuralis (7.4%), Enterobacter mobilis (4.7%), Aeromonas encheleia (4.3%), Pseudomonas aeroginosa (3.0%), Staphylococcus aureus (14.9%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (11.2%), Coagulasenegative Staphylococcus spp. (10.0%), Enterococcus faecalis (9.2%), Enterococcus faecium (8.0%), Actinomyces viscosus (7.2%), Micoroccus diversus(6.8%), Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis(5.2%), Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus (3.2%), Other non-beta hemolytic Streptococcus spp. (2.0%) and many others from vaginal mucosa and clitorial fossa in Thoroughbred mares. No significant bacteria (Taylorella equigenitalis and Klebsiella pneumonia) were isolated from the mare genital tract. In antimicrobial agents susceptibility test, it shows a high sensibility in the antibiotics of the most which excepts the streptomycin and neomycinm, kanamycin, spectinomycin, compound sulfonamides. Especially, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. were visible a high sensibility in the all antibiotics. However, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus spp. and E. coli were showed a high antibiotic resistance patterns. These results may provide the basic information to establish strategies for the treatment and prevention of reproductive disease in Thoroughbred mares in Korea.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the recent changes such as allele frequencies and total probability of exclusion (PE) in Thoroughbred horses in Korea using short tandem repeat (STR) parentage panels between 2006 and 2016. Methods: The genotype was provided for 5,988 horse samples with 15 microsatellite markers (AHT4, AHT5, ASB2, ASB17, ASB23, CA425, HMS1, HMS2, HMS3, HMS6, HMS7, HTG4, HTG10, LEX3 and VHL20). Results: In our study, the observed number of alleles per locus ranged from 3 (HMS1) to 9 (ASB17) in 2006 and 4 (HMS1) to 9 (ASB2) in 2016, with a mean value of 6.28 and 6.40, respectively. Of the 15 markers, HMS2, HTG4, and CA425 loci had relatively low polymorphism information content (<0.5000) in the Thoroughbred population. Mean levels of genetic variation in 2006 and 2016 were observed heterozygosity (H_O) = 0.708, and expected heterozygosity (H_E) = 0.685, as well as and H_O = 0.699 and H_E = 0.682, respectively. The PE was calculated for each group based on the allele frequencies of 14 or 15 STRs. The 2006 survey analyzed that PE was 0.9998, but it increased to 0.9999 in 2016 after the HMS2 marker was added in 2011. The current STR panel is still a powerful tool for parentage verification that contributes to the maintenance of integrity in the Thoroughbred population. Conclusion: The current STR panel is still a powerful tool for parentage verification that contributes to the maintenance of integrity in the Thoroughbred horses. However, continuous monitoring genetic variability is necessary.
