Thus, FIB intensively monitored in Yeongsan Watershed in an attempt to compare two different methods and to develop a statistical model to convert from CFU to MPN estimates or vice versa. As a result, the significant difference was found in the MPN and CFU estimates. The enumerated Escherichia coli concentrations in MPN are greater than those in CFU, except for the measurement in winter. Especially in fall, E. coli concentrations in MPN are one order of magnitude greater than that in CFU. Contrarily, enterococci bacteria in MPN are lower than those in CFU. However, in general, a strongly positive relationship are found between MPN and CFU estimates. Therefore, the statistical models were developed, and showed the reasonable converting FIB concentrations from CFU estimates to MPN estimates. We expect this study will provide preliminary information towards future research on whether different analysis methods may result in different water quality standard violation frequencies for the same water sample.展开更多

Such recovery was accelerated by administrating PAP-1,10mg/kg, 3 times/wk.A significant in-crease of the activity to form colony in spleen(colony-forming unit in spleen, CFU-S_8, CUF-S12) in mice irradiated with 550 rad 6O ̄Co γ-rays and an enhancement of proliferative response of BMC to rmGM-CSF treated with PAP-1,10mg/kg,3 times/wk, ip were observed.After PAP-1,10 mg/kg,ip once,a significant increase in the number of peripheral blood leukocytes and a rise in the serum of colony stimulating factor(CSF) were also confirmed.The types of CSF in serum were M-CSF and other hematopoietic growth factors,which were confirmed by using McAb of IL-3, GM-CSF and PcAb of M-CSF. These beneficial effects of PAP-1 on hematopoiesis may be related to its activityinducing CSFs and other hematopoietic growth factors and warrant further evaluation of its use-fulness.展开更多
