  • Compressor radiated noise is one of the dominant noise for the outdoor unit of the air conditioner. Therefore, air conditioner makers are trying to reduce it continuously. Even though noise absorption and isolation technology are one of the important parts for reducing the noise from the compressor, it is usually treated to the substitute technology when the noise from the compressor is very difficult to reduce by the compressor noise control only. In this paper, we focus on the property of the sound insulation for the cabinet and measure it applying the theory of the sound transmission loss and insertion loss of the simple enclosure. The insertion loss is evaluated by the experiments according to the thickness and the aperture of the partition in the cabinet.

  • An antimicrobial compound has been isolated from the leaves of Glochidion superbum. The compound was determined as methyl 3, 4, 5-trihydroxybenzoate (methyl gallate), based on ultraviolet (UV), infrared (IR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and mass spectroscopy (MS) analysis. The isolated compound exhibited potent antimicrobial activity against three clinical isolates of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) by qualitative agar disc diffusion method and quantitative broth dilution method. Agar disc diffusion was done in a dose-dependent manner for each bacterial isolate at disc potencies of 25, 50, 100, and $150{\mu}g/disc$. The zones of inhibition were on average equal to 12.27, 14.20, 15.43, and 24.17 mm respectively. The inhibition zones were compared with that of vancomycin disc at $30{\mu}g$ as a reference standard. The MIC and MBC values were $50{\mu}g/ml$ and $100{\mu}g/ml$ respectively. The results of anti MRSA activity were analyzed using one-way ANOVA with Turkey's HSD and Duncan test. In conclusion, methyl gallate which was isolated from G. superbum showed the inhibition activity against methicillin resistant S. aureus.

  • Purpose: To investigate the degree and relationship of the quality of life(QOL) and family burden in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients(HSCTr) at admission and discharge to isolation unit. Method: Data were obtained by interviewing from 60 HSCTr and 50 of their primary caregivers' and were analyzed by SAS program. Result: The degree of quality of life in pre and post HSCTr was significantly lower in the group who had physical discomfort compared with those who had no physical discomfort. The mean score of quality of life in pre HSCTr was significantly lower compared with in post HSCTr. Objective burden of family was higher than subjective one. Conclusion: QOL in HSCTr showed lower in the group of who had medical history, physical discomfort, no hope for cure and more than 5 weeks of length of stay. On the basis of these results, it is necessary to develop nursing intervention and to apply nursing care for improving their quality of life.

  • To extract insoluble proteins and to improve funtional properties of abolished proteins, an phytase producing Aspergillus sp. SM-15 was isolated from soil. The enzyme was purified and its enzymological characteristics were investigated. Phytase production reached to maximum when the wheat bran medium containing 1% mannose, 1% yeast extract, 1% (NH4)2HPO4 and 0.2% calcium chloride was cultured for 4 days. Phytase was purified 17.1 fold and specific activity was 244.32unit/mg by a sequencial process of ammonium sulfate fraction, ion exchange chromatography and gel filtrations Pruified enzyme was confirmed as a single band by the polyacrylamide gel electro-phoresis. The molecular weight of phytase was estimated to be 46,000. The optimum pH and temperature for the phytase activity were 5.5 and 5$0^{\circ}C$. The enzyme is stable in pH 4.5~5.5, 6$0^{\circ}C$. The activity of purified enzyme was inhibited by Hg2+ whereas activited by Pb2+ and Fe2+. The activity of phytase was inhibited by the treatment with iodine. The result indicate the possible involvement of histidine at active site. Km and Vmax of the puridied phytase were 37.037mM/L and 159.87umol/min, respectively.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to describe what critical care nurses perceived about life-sustaining treatment at end of life. Methods: A qualitative content analysis method was utilized. The unit of analysis was interview text obtained from fifty critical care nurses of a general hospital. Results: Seven categories in two content areas were abstracted. In the negative perception area, the following five categories were abstracted: patients' suffering, dying with damaged dignity, patients' isolation from family members, regret about choosing life-sustaining treatment, and family members' burden. In the positive perception area, the following two categories were abstracted: willingness to sustain life and duty as family members. Conclusions: Nurses have better competencies pertaining to understanding patients' responses and suffering than any other health care professions do. Nurses should play an important role in advocating for patients and their family in the process of end-of-life care decision making.

  • $Si_{0.88}Ge_{0.12}$/Si heterostructure channels grown by RPCVD were employed to n-type metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors(MOSFETs), and their electrical properties were investigated. SiGe nMOSFETs presented very high transconductance compared to conventional Si-bulk MOSFETs, regardless substantial drawbacks remaining in subthreshold-slope, $I_{off}$, and leakage current level. It looks worthwhile to utilize excellent transconductance properties into rf applications requesting high speed and amplification capability, although optimization works on both device structure and unit processes are necessary for enhanced isolation and reduced power dissipation.

  • We report a case of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) infection in a 61-year-old businessman returning from Kuwait. The patient arrived there on August 16, 2018, developed watery diarrhea on August 28 (day 0), and came back to Korea on September 7 (day 10) as his condition worsened. Upon arrival, he complained of diarrhea and weakness, but denied any respiratory symptoms, and he directly went to visit an emergency room. Chest radiography revealed interstitial infiltrates in the lungs, and he was immediately transferred to an isolation unit. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of sputum samples taken on day 11 returned positive for MERS-CoV. No secondary MERS-CoV infection was identified among people who had close contact with him. This case underscores the importance of a high index of suspicion of MERS-CoV infection in any febrile patients who present after a trip to the Middle East.

  • Purpose: This study aims to analyze design guidelines for hospice facilities in the US, UK, and Canada focused on design considerations and space requirements, and utilizes them as baseline data for establishing standards for Korean hospice facilities. Methods: Comparative review was carried out to investigate hospice care models, design consideration, and room sizes and requirements for design guideline of hospice facilities in United States, UK and Canada identified on electronic database and review articles, and to examine major characteristics and tendencies of hospice facilities. Results: The hospice care models characteristics in design guidelines is generally largely divided into hospital-based hospice facility, Nursing home-based hospice facility, and daycare hospice. The design considerations in hospice facilities focused on medical efficiency, flexibility, barrier-free environment, person-centered care, and stability. There is also a need for single resident room, rooms for the patient's family, and isolation room for infection control. Implications: it is recommended to establish standards for the installation and operation of required and recommended rooms and considerations when establishing the standards of hospice facilities in Korea. This Study is limited to a simple comparative analysis of the framework of guideline.
