The purpose of this study is to assess the level of fungi concentration in the university laboratories in Seoul, Korea, and to investigate factors contributing to these concentrations. The samples were taken from three spots in each laboratory; the top of sink, the center of laboratory, and the front of ventilation system, i.e fume hood at the chemical laboratory and clean bench/biosafety cabinet at the microbial laboratory. Air samples were collected using the single-stage Anderson sampler (Quick Take 30) at a flow rate of 28.3 l/min for 5 min on nutrient media in Petri-dishes located on the impactor. Fifty-two air samples were collected from 19 different laboratories (13 microbiology laboratories, 6 chemistry laboratories) in the university, and concentrations of airborne fungi showed no significant difference (p>0.05) between microbiology and chemistry laboratory, and also no significant difference at three locations (sink, center, front of ventilation system) in microbiology and chemistry laboratories. Average concentrations of fungi in 19 laboratories ranged from 7 to 459 cfu/$m^3$, with an overall Geometric Mean of 52 cfu/$m^3$. Airborne fungi concentrations of 6 samples (12 %) exceeded 150 cfu/$m^3$, the guideline of WHO. The ratios of Indoor/Outdoor for airborne fungi ranged from 0.2 to 4.8 (mean = 1.6). Related factors were measured such as relative humidity, temperature, and laboratory area. Temperature and laboratory area showed no significant relations to concentrations of airborne fungi except for relative humidity in the laboratory Concentrations of fungi were significant different (p<0.01) between rainy or cloudy and sunny. However, there was no significant difference between general ventilation and nongeneral ventilation.

The straight-cone steel cooling tower is a novel type of structure, which has a distinct aerodynamic distribution on the internal surface of the tower cylinder compared with conventional hyperbolic concrete cooling towers. Especially in the extreme weather conditions of strong wind and heavy rain, heavy rain also has a direct impact on aerodynamic force on the internal surface and changes the turbulence effect of pulsating wind, but existing studies mainly focus on the impact effect brought by wind-driven rain to structure surface. In addition, for the indirect air cooled cooling tower, different additional ventilation rate of shutters produces a considerable interference to air movement inside the tower and also to the action mechanism of loads. To solve the problem, a straight-cone steel cooling towerstanding 189 m high and currently being constructed is taken as the research object in this study. The algorithm for two-way coupling between wind and rain is adopted. Simulation of wind field and raindrops is performed with continuous phase and discrete phase models, respectively, under the general principles of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Firstly, the rule of influence of 9 combinations of wind sped and rainfall intensity on flow field mechanism, the volume of wind-driven rain, additional action force of raindrops and equivalent internal pressure coefficient of the tower cylinder is analyzed. On this basis, the internal pressures of the cooling tower under the most unfavorable working condition are compared between four ventilation rates of shutters (0%, 15%, 30% and 100%). The results show that the 3D effect of equivalent internal pressure coefficient is the most significant when considering two-way coupling between wind and rain. Additional load imposed by raindrops on the internal surface of the tower accounts for an extremely small proportion of total wind load, the maximum being only 0.245%. This occurs under the combination of 20 m/s wind velocity and 200 mm/h rainfall intensity. Ventilation rate of shutters not only changes the air movement inside the tower, but also affects the accumulated amount and distribution of raindrops on the internal surface.

새송이버섯 재배에서 환기방법이 실내의 이산화탄소 농도 및 자실체형성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 평압형, 양압형, 음압형, 복합형의 4종의 환기방법을 사용하여 환기효율, 재배효율 및 생리장해발생정도를 포장에서 조사하였다. 그 결과 복합형의 경우, 실내 이산화탄소 농도가 평압형의 경우 1,400 ppm인 것에 비해 800 ppm으로서 현저하게 낮았고, 기류발생정도도 상대적으로 적어 환기효율이 가장 높은 것으로 나타났다. 대의 길이, 갓의 직경, 품질, 수량 등의 재배효율이 복합형에서 가장 높았으며, 수확소요일수가 단축 되었다. 생리장해의 발생에 있어서는, 세균점액증상, 비늘대증상 및 굴곡대증상의 경우에서는 환기방법에 따라 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 오뚝이증상, 진무름증상 및 갈반증상은 이산화탄소 농도가 다른 환기방법에 비해 낮았던 복합형과 음압형에서 현저하게 줄어드는 경향을 보였다. 전체적으로 볼 때, 평압형 환기방법은 환기효율이 낮아 실내 이산화탄소농도를 유효하게 밖으로 배출해 내지 못함으로서 품질과 수량을 현저하게 떨어뜨리고, 생리장해의 발생을 유도하는 결과를 초래하였으며, 양압형 또한 평압형에 비해 효율성이 다소 높은 경향을 보였으나, 이들 2종은 새송이 버섯의 연중재배에 이용되는 환기방법으로 부적절한 것으로 나타났다. 음압형의 경우 상대적으로 효율성이 높은 환기방법으로서 어느 정도 도입의 가능성을 시사하고 있으나, 복합형이 환기효율, 재배효율 및 생리장해억제효과가 가장 우수한 것으로 조사되어, 새송이버섯 재배에서 복합형 환기방법을 도입할 경우, 품질향상과 생산성향상은 물론 연중 안전재배를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다. 도움이 되리라 생각된다.리고 실험에 사용된 송신부 및 수신부를 사진으로 보였으며, 이것을 이용하여 통신 수신율을 분석하였다. 주파수에서 측정된 Type 1 안테나의 전기적 성능은 원형 도체 배열을 10개 적층(disk10)하였을 때, 15.65 dBi의 최대 안테나 이득과 11.4 dB 이상의 입력 반사 손실 성능을 보여 주었으며, 다층 원형 도체 배열 구조에 의해 약 5 dB의 이득 향상 효과를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한, 원형 도체를 12개 적층하였을 때, 외곽 유전체 링 효과에 의해 Type 1 안테나는 Type 2 안테나보다 상대적으로 약 1.35 dB 만큼 이득이 더 높았으며, 각 안테나의 3 dB 빔 폭은 각각 약 $28^{\circ}$와 $36^{\circ}$로 측정되었다.. 그러나 기흉 발생 당일은 기흉이 발생하지 않은 날 당일보다 전일 대비 평균 기온이 높고(0.533 vs. $-0.103^{\circ}C$, RR 1.141, Cl $1.038{\sim}l.255$, p=0.006), 기온상승폭도 컸다(9.209 vs. $7.754^{\circ}C$, RR 1.123, Cl $1.061{\sim}1.190$, p=0.000). 결론: 본 연구의 결과를 통해 저자들은 기압이 상승한 뒤 기온이 상승했다. 하강하는 약 4일간의 기상변화가 자발성 기흉 발생에 영향을 미친다고 추론할 수 있었다. 향후 본 연구에서 추론된 기상변화와 기흉 발생과의 인과관계를 확인하고 좀 더 구체화하기 위한 연구가 필요할 것이다.게 이루어질 수

A 26-year-old female patient with Down syndrome visited to recieve dental treatment under gnenral anesthesia 6 years ago. The patient had difficulties in oral examination, radiograph taking and laboratory test. The patient had congenital heart disease and medical consultation based on the echocardiography was provided by a cardiologist indicating that the patient could tolearte general anesthesia during dental treatment. And two times of general anesthesia were administered during a dental treament with the interval of 3 years and no postoperpative complicaton was reported. At the third dental operation, the patient had a relatively good condition and her prescreening test revealed no abnormalities. Without further consultation with a cardiologist, general anesthesia was administered to the patient. Anaesthesia was based on thiopental and ventilation of desflurane and $N_2O$ in oxygen via an endotracheal tube with an appropriate monitoring. During the maintenance of anesthesia, the blood pressure of the patient started to drop and the oxygen saturation also began to decrease. Consequently, the proceding operation was discontinued and also inhalation anesthesia was ceased. As the patient was recovered from anesthesia, her systemic conditions were alleviated. After the complete recovery of the patient, she visited the cardiologist, and the cardiologic test revealed her severe right ventricular dilatation. In the anesthesia of patients with congenital heart disease, information on their systemic conditions needs to be undated from the medical consultation, which assures the safety of treatment.

Generalized anaphylaxis is a most dramatic and acutely life-threatening allergic reaction. Most fatalities from anaphylaxis occur within the first 30 minutes postantigenic exposure. The mechanism of generalized anaphylaxis is the reaction of IgE antibodies to an allergen that causes the release of histamine, bradykinin, and others. These chemical mediators cause the contraction of smooth muscles of the respiratory and intestinal tracts, as well as increased vascular permeability. Four major clinical symptoms are recognized: skin reactions, smooth muscle spasm (gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts and respiratory smooth muscle), respiratory distress, and cardiovascular collapse. Epinephrine is the drug of choice for the management. Its syrnpathomimetic effects directly counteract most aspects of the attack. Respiration must be immediately supported by the establishment of a patent airway along with artificial ventilation. The circulation should be supported and the existing hypotension overcome by placing the victim in a position to allow gravity to aid venous return and by administering intravenous fluids, vasopressors, and corticosteroids. When an imperceptible pulse is evident, external cardiac compression must also be instituted. This is a case report of anaphylactic shock care during general anesthesia, possibly due to penicillin, pancuronium and others.
