To study the effects of utilizing extruded full fat soybean (FFS) in layer diets, 300 White Leghorn pullets were put in trial divided into 5 treatments; control (commercial soybean meal as protein source), FFS 50% (replacing 50% of soybean meal with FFS), FFS 100% (replacing all amount of soybean meal with FFS), soybean oil and tallow added treatment. Each treatment consisted of 5 replicates of 12 birds. Egg production and feed efficiency from hens fed control diet were significantly lower than from hens fed the other diets. Significant differences in egg production and feed efficiency were found between the control and the other treatments. Cholesterol concentration of serum and egg yolk were not affected by any dietary treatment. Feeding extruded full fat soybean did not cause pancreatic hypertrophy nor change in mortality. There was an indication that linoleic acid (C18:2), linolenic acid (C18:3) and iodine contents increased in the thigh and egg yolk lipid of the groups fed FFS or soybean soybean can serve as effective protein source for layer diets if economically justified.

The egg-yolk precursor vitellogenin(VTG) is secreted by the liver of female and male fish, in response to estrogenic compound. Carp(Cryprinus carpio) vitellogenin of one major protein is 160kDa, two minor proteins is 110kDa and 170kDa. We were induced vitellogenin by inject of 17-estradiol and purified in a two step procedure by separating it from plasma protein precipitated by 35% saturated ${(NH_4)}_2SO_4$ and then from the remainder by Mono-Q chromatography. We found major carp(Cyprinus carpio) vitellogenin band at 160kDa. Effect of different concentration of oestrogen on vitellogenin synthesis in carp(Cyprinus carpio) exposed for 4 weeks. Show differential effects on vitellogenin synthesis 7 days after treatment. Plasma vitellogenin was measured 3 times for each by an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). ELISA was developed for the detection of the egg yolk precursor vitellogenin in plasma of carp(Cyprinus carpio). The ELISAS performance was optimized and characterized.

난황에 포함된 IgY는 포유동물에 있는 바이러스나 항원에 반응하는 항체와 같은 역할을 한다. 난황을 전처리한 후 3-zone와 4-zone SMB를 이용하여 지질단백질들로 부터 IgY를 분리하는 전산모사연구를 수행하였다. 회분식 크로마토그래피에서 전산모사 매개변수와 흡착 등온식 SMB 전산모사 변수를 얻었다. Aspen simulator를 이용하여 전산모사를 수행하여 IgY를 분리할 수 있는 3-zone과 4-zone SMB 운전조건을 비교하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. IgY와 다른 단백질의 농도와 순도를 모두 고려할 때, 꼭지점인 좌표($m_2$, $m_3$=0.1, 1.1)에서 3-zone SMB가 최적의 조건으로 생각된다. IgY 만을 고려하면 4-zone SMB가 좌표($m_2$, $m_3$=0.06, 0.5)에서 가장 높게 IgY를 분리할 수 있었다. recycle이 없는 3-zone SMB는 꼭지점 좌표에서 좌표이동이 extract의 지질 단백질 농도에 큰 영향을 주었다.

The presence of retinals (retinal and 3,4-didehydroretinal) has been known in the eggs of wide range of oviparous vertebrates, but the biological significance of the egg retinals has yet to be clarified. We here show that retinals are the major components of retinoids in the eggs of all species of chordate animals we examined. The egg retinals were commonly bound to egg yolk proteins, the storage proteins, via a Schiff base linkage. The Schiff base linkage, which protects the reactive aldehyde group, would negate the toxicity of aldehyde, and enable to accumulate much amount of retinals. The retinals in chordate eggs are considered to be the precursor of functional retinoids, such as photoreceptive pigment chromophores and retinoic acid, during development. The results of the present research strongly suggest that retinals in the eggs of oviparous chordates are the common and essential mode of retinoid storage.

IgY (egg yolk immunoglobulin) against Helicobacter pylori was produced by immunizing hen with some Helicobacter pylori antigens. H. pylori whole cell, whole cell lysates, partially purified urease and p54 protein, which showed high antigenicity in mice, were used as immunogens. Four hens were immunized with these immunogens three times. IgY was purified from immunized egg yolk with polyethylene glycol (M.W. 8000) and its anti-H. pylori titer was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The anti-H. pylori titer reached peak at 8 weeks and was maintained over 20 weeks. H. pylori cells were agglutinated with these purified IgY and the specificity of these purified IgY was detected with immunoblotting.

Very early stage of chick embryo cultivated in the medium containing DLtryptophan by beaker method has been investigated in vitro morphologically using electron microscopy at cellular level and found that the development of tryptophan treated chick embryos corresponding to 18∼66 hrs incubation was impaired and york granule degradation was significantly delayed. It was also found that DNA, RNA and protein biosynthesis of tryptophan treated chick embryo was greatly lowered than those of control group. Conversion of L-tryptophan into serotonin was traced using 14C-L-tryptophan and found that 13.8cA of added radioactivity was recovered from serotonin formed during 18 hrs incubation and the amounts of serotonin formed were depend upon added amount of tryptophan in e99 yolk. It seemed that the serotonin formed from external tryptophan might inhibit the degradation of yolk granule by feedback mechanism, resulting in malformation of chick embryogenesis.

In Exp. 1, a total of 36 pigs (6.55$\pm$0.10 kg average initial body weight and 21 d average age) were used in a 14 d growth study to determine the effects of replacing spray-dried plasma protein (SDPP) with spray-dried egg protein containing specific egg yolk antibody (SDEP) on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in weaned pigs. The pigs were blocked by weight and assigned to treatments based on sex. There were three pigs per pen and four pens per treatment. Dietary treatments were 0, 3, or 6% SDEP and contained 6, 3, or 0% SDPP, respectively. Through the entire experimental period, average daily gain (ADG), average daily feed intake (ADFI), and gain/feed tended to decrease as the concentration of SDEP increased in the diets. However, there were no significant differences among the treatments (p>0.05). As the addition of SDEP in the diets increased, apparent digestibilities of dry matter (DM) and nitrogen (N) were decreased without significant (p>0.05). For Exp. 2, 36 pigs (2.63$\pm$0.04 kg average initial body weight and 10 d average age) were used in a 14 d growth study to determine the effects of antibiotic replacement with SDEP on growth performance and nutrient digestibility in early-weaned pigs. The pigs were blocked by weight and assigned to treatments based on sex. There were three pigs per pen and four pens per treatment. Dietary treatments included 1) ANTIBIOTIC (corn-dried whey-soybean meal based diet+0.08% antibiotics, 4 mg of tiamuline hydrogen fumarate; 10 mg of sulfadimidine per kg of complete diet), 2) SDEP0.1 (corndried whey-SBM based diet+0.1% SDEP), and 3) SDEP0.2 (corn-dried whey-SBM based diet+0.2% SDEP). ADG and gain/feed of pigs fed the SDEP0.2 diet were higher than for pigs fed the ANTIBIOTIC diet without significant (p>0.05). Pigs fed the diet with SDEP0.2 tended to have increased apparent digestibilities of DM and N compared to pigs fed the ANTIBIOTIC diet without significant (p>0.05). In conclusion, the dietary SDEP seemed to be partial replacing the SDPP portion of high nutrient dense diet for weaned pigs. Also, dietary SDEP seemed to be approximately 0.2% or more when the pigs fed the antibiotic-free diet for early-weaned pigs.

Cathepsins are members of the multigene family of lysosomal cysteine proteinases and have regulated function in several life processes. The potential role of cathepsin F cysteine gene was expected as protease in the yolk processing mechanism during early developmental stage, but expression analysis was unknown after fertilization. The alignment analysis showed that amino acid sequence of cathepsin F from olive flounder liver expressed sequence tag (EST) homologous to cathepsin F of other known cathepsin F sequences with 87-98% identity. In this study, we examined the gene expression analysis of cathepsin F in various tissues at variety age flounder. Tissue distribution of the cathepsin F mRNA has been shown to be ubiquitous and constitutive pattern regardless of age in each group, although derived from cDNA library using liver sample. The mRNA level of cathepsin F more increased as developmental proceed during embryogenesis and early developmental stage, especially increased in the blastula, hatching stage and 3 days post hatching (dph). As a result, it may suggest that the proteolysis of yolk proteins (YPs) has been implicated as a mechanism for nutrient supply during early larval stages in olive flounder.

계란의 난황으로부터 유래한 IgY의 분리와 정제과정이 흐름을 정리한 결과, 난황에서의 수용성 단백질의 분리단계가 단백질의 수율을 증가시키는데 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 판단되었다. 본 연구에서는 자연 침전방법을 통하여 실험하였는데 수율의 증가를 위해서는 원심분리와 같이 수용성 단백질의 양을 많이 얻을 수 있는 방법이 필요하고, 인지질이나 lipoprotein등의 성분의 제거효율을 높이기 위해서는 x-carrageenan등과 같은 natural gum성분의 첨가와 같은 방법이 필요하다. 그러므로 자연침전을 이용하여 수율의 증가측면과 비용의 절감의 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 보다 효율적인 IgY의 분리를 위해서는 초기 단계에서 수율의 극대화와 불순성분 제거의 최대화가 동시에 요구되고 있다. 전처리 후의 시료를 이용하여 이온교환 크로마토그래피와 gel filtration chromatography를 통해 순도 90% 이상의 IgY를 얻을 수 있었다.

Objective: The present study aimed to investigate the effect of dietary lutein on egg production, follicles, reproductive hormones, fertility, hatchability, and oxidative injury indexes of hens. Methods: Treatments consisted of a control diet (CON) and three lutein-supplementing diets at 25 (L1), 50 (L2), or 75 (L3) mg/kg of diet. Egg production was measured using 576 Arbor Acres breeder hens at 61 to 65 wk and follicles grades, reproductive hormones, fertility, hatchability, tissue lutein contents, and oxidative injury indexes were determined at 65 wk. Results: The results showed that at 65 wk, lutein- supplementing diets increased (p<0.05) egg production, follicular grades, fertility, hatchability, estradiol (E2), luteinizing hormone, progesterone (PROG), lutein content in the serum and yolk, compared to CON. L2 and L3 showed more pronounced (p<0.05) effects on egg production, PROG, and yolk lutein content than L1. With the increase of lutein doses from 25 to 75 mg/kg, there were linear increases (p<0.05) in egg production, lutein content, and PROG, and a quadratic trend (p<0.05) in E2. For the oxidative injury products, lutein-supplementing diets decreased (p<0.05) malondialdehyde (MDA) and protein carbonyl (PCO) in the serum, MDA and 8-hydroxy 2 deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in the yolk. There were linear decreases (p<0.05) in 8-OHdG in the serum, MDA, PCO, and 8-OHdG in the yolk, a quadratic trend (p<0.05) on serum 8-OHdG. Conclusion: It is concluded that lutein supplementation can improve egg production and fertility by beneficially regulating reproductive hormones and oxidative status in aged hens.
