  • The survey was conducted on the actual conditions of species, the facilities, a establishment of regulation concerning laboratory animals and the related problems on users and suppliers of laboratory animals in Korea. The questionnaires were sent to 430 and received from 107$(24.9\%)$ places. The results obtained were as follows : 1. Experimental animals used at the 107 places were 21 species: mouse(90\;places,\;84.1\%)$, rat $(61,\;57.0\%)$, rabbit$(76,\;71.0\%)$, guineapig$(42,\; 39.3\%)$ etc. 2. The main organizations using laboratory animals were university $46(43.0\%)$, institute $32(29.9\%)$ and pharmaceutical company $27(25.2\%)$ etc. 3. Most the laboratory animal facilities in Korea have been conventional system without environmental controls, but a few places have been recently established barrier system. 4. To get a good experimental result, a regular genetic and microbiological monitoring of laboratory animals should be done. 5. It was required that a educational facilities and a quality test agency for laboratory animals should be established. 6. It was also required that a regulation for breeding and using of laboratory animals should 'be enacted.

  • Background: This study determined current status of laboratory biosafety in Nigerian veterinary research facilities. Methods: A questionnaire was developed to obtain information from researchers across Nigeria from July 2014 to July 2015. Information regarding demographics, knowledge of laboratory biosafety, availability and proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE), any priority pathogens researched, attitude on and use of standard laboratory practices, and biosafety awareness was obtained using a numeric scoring system. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics, and univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Results: A total of 74 participants from 19 facilities completed the questionnaire. General knowledge scores ranged from 3 to 28 (out of 28 possible points), with 94.6% of respondents receiving low scores (scores < mean + 1 standard deviation). Very few (17.6%) reported availability or use PPE. Many participants (63.5%) reported no access to biosafety level (BSL)-1-3 facilities. None reported availability of a BSL-4 facility. Knowledge scores pertaining to biosafety management practices ranged from 0 to 14 (out of 14 possible points) with 47.3% of respondents receiving good scores (scores > mean + 1 standard deviation). Only 16.2% of respondents (from four facilities) reported having biosafety officers. Rabies virus was the most researched pathogen (31.1% of respondents). The majority (71.6%) were unaware of laws guiding biosafety. Researchers [odds ratio (OR) = 18.0; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.63, 198.5; p = 0.023], especially in BSL-2 (OR = 258.5; 95% CI: 12.71, 5256; p < 0.001) facility of research institute (OR = 25.0; 95% CI: 5.18, 120.6; p < 0.001), are more likely to have adequate access to and properly utilize biosafety devices and PPE. Conclusions: Current knowledge of laboratory biosafety is limited except among a few researchers.

  • Purpose: To describe the status of the laboratory facilities, equipment and expenses for practice in a four-year nursing schools and to analyze mandatory requirements for laboratory facilities and equipment. Method: A descriptive survey research design was used. The participants were 49 of the 4-year nursing schools across the nation. The data were collected by e-mail. The return rate for questionnaires was 63.3% (n=31). Result: In 2001 the total expenses for laboratory practice were 21,865,230 won and the average per student was 102,418 won. Types of laboratories included single and complex. The mean size for laboratories was $318.7m^2$ and mean size for laboratories for fundamental nursing was $161.1m^2$. The range for number of students in a laboratory class was 20-30 for eight universities (30.8%). Among required laboratory equipment, items that were deficient in 50% in the universities were mercury and aneroid sphygmomanometers for children, electronic sphygmomanometers, Bell type fetal stethoscopes, sheepskin, beds for children, for gynecology, and electronic hilo beds. Among the elective equipment, items that were deficient in 50% of the universities were $O^2$ tents, Blackmore tubes, retractors, hot-water supply, and incentive spirometers. The number of items that needed to add to the equipment were 10 for required equipment and 22 for elective equipment. Conclusion: A standardized mandatory list of equipment for laboratory facilities and expenses for practice in 4-year nursing schools needs to be developed.

  • Recently, there are three major trends in building school facilities by government. First trend is to reconstruct facilities that have been built for 30 years. Second is the creation of a new town, new construction demanded from the redeveloping area. Finally, third is to build educational convenience facilities such as gymnasium, auditorium and cafeteria etc. When building or reconstructing school facilities, it is important to consider the 7th Education curriculum. The purpose of this study is to propose the guide line of the planning the dimension of Science Laboratory in in elementary school, corresponding to teaming contents and method.

  • E-science refers to the large-scale science that will increasingly be carried out through distributed global collaborations enabled by the Internet. The Grid is a service-oriented architecture proposed to provide access to very large data collections, very large scale computing resources and remote facilities. Web services, which are server applications, enable online access to service providers. Web portal interfaces can further hide the complexity of accessing facility's services. The main use of synchrotron radiation (SR) facilities by protein crystallographers is to collect the best possible diffraction data for reasonably well defined problems. Significant effort is therefore being made throughout the world to automate SR protein crystallography facilities so scientists can achieve high throughput, even if they are not expert in all the techniques. By applying the above technologies, the e-HTPX project, a distributed computing infrastructure, was designed to help scientists remotely plan, initiate and monitor experiments for protein crystallographic structure determination. A description of both the hardware and control software is given together in this paper.

  • This descriptive study was conducted in order to develop a standard criteria for nursing laboratory facilities and equipment for use by the 3 year nursing colleges. The data was collected from Aug. 28 to Sept. 30, 1997 by mail from 44 3 year nursing schools. To develop a standard criteria, the syllabi for Fundamentals of Nursing laboratory and for Physical Assessment were collected and analyzed. The following information was elicited and analyzed by the researchers : 1. for each procedure in the syllabus, the percentage of schools using the procedures 2. the facilities and equipment recognized as necessary and the percentage of schools which possess each item 3. calculation of the standard criteria for size of the nursing laboratory together with a list of the necessary facilities and equipment. The results of the study were as follows : 1. The Size of facility was 181.2m2 for fundamentals of Nursing laboratory and 56.4m2 for the storage room. For those whose number of students exceed 120, 1.98m2 is required for each students. 2. The number of items included in the standard criteria was 92 for Fundamentals of Nursing and Physical Assessment and 47 for other nursing subjects. The items made of rubber, plastic and the disposable ones were suggested but excluded from the standard criteria. Based on the above findings, the following suggestions were made : 1. Periodic review of the standard criteria is necessary to update the standard. 2. A study on the standardization of the curriculum for basic science laboratory, including experiment and a standard criteria of equipment, is necessary. 3. A study to develop a computer program for management of nursing laboratory facilities and equipment is needed.

  • 이 연구의 목적은 조리 실습을 위한 조리실습시설의 전공자의 중요도와 만족도를 평가하는 것이다. 이를 위해 설문은 충청도에 위치한 Y대학교에서 조리를 전공하는 100명의 학생에게 설문지를 배포하였고 총 71부의 유용한 설문지를 본 연구를 위해 사용하였다. 통계적 분석을 위해 SPSS 10.0 Win을 사용하였으며, 중요도-실행도 분석은 조리 교육의 핵심 요소인 실습 시설에 대한 중요도와 만족도를 비교하기 위해 실시하였다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 조리실습시설에 대한 만족도(M=3.42)는 중요도(M=4.09)보다 낮게 나타났다. 둘째, 조리실습시설의 중요도 및 만족도는 사전 교육 무경험자와 유경험자 사이에 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 사전 교육 경험이 있는 전공자는 기물의 보유량에 비해 보유 기기 기물의 유용성을 더욱 중요시하였고 빠르게 개선되어야할 요인으로써 사전 교육이 있는 전공자는 조리 실습실 내 환기시설과 급 배수시설을 중요하게 생각하는 것으로 나타났다. 조리 교육에 있어 이 연구의 시사점은 조리 실습실에 대한 전공자의 교육 만족도 향상에 공헌 할 것이다. 그러나 표본추출에 있어 한정성으로 인해 연구의 결과를 일반화시키기 어렵다.
