There are a lot of roots of errors in an motion of the optical pick-up actuator being one of the most significant components in a CD-ROM drive. Most of the studies recently performed have a tendency to seek for the causes from an actuator itself. This paper present the dynamic characteristics of an actuator affected by the motion of a feeding deck. The feeding system is modeled as a rigid body with eight degree-of-freedom. Using Largrange's equation, we derive the linear equations of motion with respect to the rectangular coordinate. We found the fact that the ranges of the natural frequencies of a feeding deck and an actuator are close to each other. And the time responses are also computed by the Newmark method and Runge-Kutta method.

Authors have measured virtual source distance of electron beam from CL/1800 medical linear accelerator, with newly designed method. Beam scanning was performed with the direction of beam axis in the air. Compared results between this study and well established in phantom measurement shows good agreement with in experimental error. And we have found that build-up cap plays very important role in air measurement because of charge build up. The method of in-air measurement of virtual source distance is very easy to set-up and generate accurate results.

Oka strain VR-795 (Varicella Zoster Virus, VZV) of American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) has been used for chickenpox vaccine production. In order to use this strain for vaccine production, the strain must be identified and its stability must be confirmed. The identification of the Oka strain has been confirmed using Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and DNA sequence analysis of glycoprotein-II (gp-II). The amino acid sequences of Oka deduced from the DNA sequence of gp-II have changed at three amino acids against Ellen and at one amino acid against Webster. To prove the stability of the Oka strain during the passage, RFLP and DNA sequence analyses were also used with 11, 15 and 23 times of virus passage. We found that the Oka strain was stable at passages of up to 23 times, based on the RFLP and DNA sequence analyses. The confirmed Oka strain was renamed as BR-Oka for the purposes of chickenpox vaccine production.

Drug interaction of a new antibiotic, methampicillin lysinate (MAL) with nine drugs were investigated using four species of gram positive and gram negative bacteria. The experimental results were as follows: 1. MIC of MAL were found to be decreased against E. coil when combined with mefenamic acid, probenecid, aluminium hydroxide gel or corticosteroids. The other drugs did not affect MIC of MAL against the same bacteria. 2. MIC of MAL were found to be increased against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538-P, 9441 when combined with mefenamic acid, aluminum hydroxide gel or dexamethasone acetate. The other drugs did not affect MIC of MAL against the same bacteria. 3. MIC of MAL were found to be increased against Shigella dysenteriae when either of the nine drugs was combined. 4. MIC of MAL were found to be increased approximately 2.5 times when combined with Streptokinase-Streptodornase or hydrocortisone and to be decreased approximately 2 times when combined with probenecid or dexamethasone against Salmonella typhi(type 2). It seems the other drugs do not affect the MIC of MAL against the same bacteria.

During screening for indigenous prokaryotic species in Republic of Korea in 2021, a total of 21 bacterial strains assigned to the phylum Bacteroidota were isolated from a variety of environmental habitats including pine cone, seaweed, soil, sea sediment, brackish water and moss. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity value of more than 98.7% and formation of a robust phylogenetic clade with the type strain of the closest bacterial species, it was found that the 21 strains belong to independent and recognized bacterial species. There has been no official report that the identified 21 species have been isolated in Republic of Korea up to date. Therefore, 16 species in six genera of two families in the order Flavobacteriales, two species in two genera of two families in the order Cytophagales, one species in one genus of one family in the order Chitinophagales and two species in one genus of one family in the order Sphingobacteriales are proposed as unrecorded species of the phylum Bacteroidota isolated in Republic of Korea. Their Gram reaction, colony and cell morphology, basic phenotypic characteristics, isolation source, taxonomic status, strain ID and other information are described in the species descriptions.

This article is media education uses type of a middle high school students and research about effect that is taking media education. Measured media education uses motivation, studies own effect academic self-efficacy, media competence and school achievement for this research. As analysis result, priority media education uses motive was 'teaching convenience/help sought', 'Information/education method picking up sought', 'new teaching/communication thoroughgoing sought', 'ability elevation pursuit', 'self-regulating education sought', 'up-to-dateness sought', 'New knowledge/education sought' of order. By next time, only 'new knowl edge/education sought' motive caused positive effect in studies own effect among media education uses motive. Among media education uses motive, 'teaching convenience/help sought', 'Information/education method picking up sought', 'New study/communication thoroughgoing sought', 'self-regulating education sought', 'up-to-dateness sought' motive caused positive effect in media competence. Also, it caused positive effect among media education uses motive 'self-regulating education sought' and 'new knowledge/education sought' in students' school achievement. Finally, 'academic self-efficacy' is 'media competence' more in school achievement influence. Media education influenced new teaching method and ability elevation to some students. But, academic self-efficacy and school achievement did not cause big effect students. However, media education influenced in some students' media competence elevation.

It is well known that discard of seminal plasma from the semen and separation of motile sperm should be preceded before insemination for IUI or IVF. Till now, more than ten kinds of semen treatment methods have been developed. Of those, swim-up and Percoll methods have been used widely in ART laboratories as a routine semen treatment methods because of its advantages. However, there are reports that Percoll can make a genetic trouble because of its chemical structure and therefore the necessity has been arisen to substitute Percoll for other equivalent materials. This study was performed to evaluate the effects of three different sperm preparation methods (swim-up, Percoll and Sil-Select) on sperm motility, sperm recovery rate and fertilization rate. Also, the feasibility of using Sil-Select instead of Percoll in ART was evaluated. Each semen samples were divided into three fractions and motile sperm were recovered by swim-up, Percoll and Sil-Select gradient centrifugation methods. Normal and sub-normal criteria of fifteen semen samples and seventeen IVF cycles were included in these study. As results, no significant difference was found in sperm recovery rate in normal semen treated by a Swim-up, Percoll and Sil-Select method ($13.2{\times}10^6,\;17.5{\times}10^6\;and\;17.7{\times}10^6$ respectively). The initial sperm motility was 61.9% and this increased to 87.1%, 92.6% and 89.5% through Swim-up, Percoll and Sil-Select treatment, respectively. Higher motility was observed in Percoll and Sil-Select treated groups (81.5%, 79.2%, respectively) than swim-up group (66.8%) after incubation for 24hrs. In sub-normal group, sperm recovery rates were higher in Sil-Select group $(2.9{\times}10^6)$ than Percoll gradients group $(1.8{\times}10^6)$. In IVF cycles, the outcomes of fertilization using sperm treated by swim-up and Sil-Select group were similar (82.2%, 79.7% respectively). In conclusion, our results indicate that Sil-Select can be used as a substitute material for sperm preparation instead of Percoll.

The uncertainty of start-ups are factors that weaken the entrepreneurial intentions of college students and prospective founders, and are also the cause of the low rate of entrepreneurship among art college students. This study tried to identify the effect of subjective norms entrepreneurial efficacy on start-up intentions. Studies have shown that entrepreneurial efficacy and subjective norms have a significant impact on start-up intentions. In addition, start-up education support has been shown to control the impact of subjective norms on start-up intentions, and start-up activity support has been shown to control the impact of subjective norms on start-up intentions, while start-up commercialization support does not control the impact of start-up efficacy or subjective norms on start-up intentions. In order to revitalize the start-up and effectively guide the start-up of art college students, it is necessary to show the social support of the people around them for the start-up and to enhance the efficacy of the start-up by supporting the prototyping activities.

Solitary necrotic nodule (SNN) of the liver is a very uncommon benign lesion, and it is detected incidentally as a rule. It is important to differentiate SNN radiologically from various single hepatic nodules because SNN mimics hepatic metastasis, especially in staging work up of known primary malignancy. The reported imaging findings of SNN are well-defined nodule without enhancement or with subtle peripheral enhancement. There has been no report about the target-like SNN of the liver and about the imaging finding of 3T magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography. We report a case of targetlike SNN of the liver, mimicking hepatic metastasis, with findings of various imaging modalities and try to find a cause of this nodule according to the pathologic and literature review.

This study examines a clinical progress of treatment for the sequelae of facial palsy through Jung-ahn acupuncture. The patient in this case was diagnosed with facial paralysis a few years ago. The patient was treated with Korean medicine and Western medicine, but was given up without improvement. The paretic symptom was found out in left side of the face. Also facial spasm and epiphora caused by blepharoptosis were existed. The patient got 8 times Jung-ahn acupuncture treatment from September 18th, 2014 to September 26th, 2014. House-Brackmann facial nerve grading system(H-B scale) was implemented. On the first time of the treatment, H-B scale was Grade Ⅴ and facial nerve grading was 2/8. Facial spasm and epiphora caused by blepharoptosis in lower eyelid were appeared on facial expressions and conversation. After total 8 treatments(therapies), H-B scale was Grade Ⅲ and facial nerve grading was 5/8. The symptoms of facial paralysis and blepharoptosis were improved. Jung-ahn acupuncture is estimated to be effective in facial palsy sequela. More cases are required to develop treatment of facial palsy sequela.
