Interests in the field of rapid methods and automation in microbiology have been growing steadily on an international scale in recent years. International meetings concerned this problem have been held in elsewhere in the world countries since the past twenty years. But, unfortunately in the field of microbial examination in food hygiene, this problem have not yet been developed so much as in the field of clinical microbiology. Today, I would like to introduce you here present aspects of rapid and automation technologies, those which are manly carrying in milk and meats industries. My illustration will be given recent improved technologies using automatic apparatus and instruments along with process of microbial count procedure. Recent direct microbiological counting system (ChemeScan \ulcorner) as real time ultrasensitive analysis created by Cheminex Ltd., France is now most evolutional instrument to provide direct microbial counts, down to one cell, within 30 minutes. The results from these evaluations how a good correlation between the ChemScan system and the standard plate count method. This system will be successful application for not only in the field of pharmacology but also food microbiology. In addition, current identification of microbes by sophisticated instruments suitable for food microbiology, one of which Biology is manual system (BIOLOG\ulcorner), provides reference-level capability at a modes price. For the manual system, the color reactions in the microplate are read by eye and manually keyed into personal computer. Species identification appears on the computer screen within seconds, along with biotype patterns, a list of closely related species, and other useful statistics. In present this is useful application for microbial ecology and epidemiological survey. RiboPrinter system newly produced by DuPont is now focusing among microbiologists in the world, and is one of the biggest microbial characterization system using a DNA-based approach. The technology analyzer is bacterial culture for its genetic fingerprint or riboprint pattern. Finally Bio-cellTracer system for automatic measurement of fungal growth and Fukitori-Maseter, a Surface Hygiene Monitoring Kit by using swabe procedure in food processing environment are briefly illustrated in this presentation.

모의 낙뢰시험에 의해 충격손상을 입은 탄소섬유강화플라스틱(CFRP) 복합재료의 잔류압축강도를 평가하는 시험(CAI) 중 손상부의 거동을 음향방출(AE)법으로 관찰하였다. CFRP 시편은 ITO 나노입자를 탄소섬유에 직접 코팅한 CFRP prepreg를 이용하여 만들었고, 모의 낙뢰시험은 고전압 대전류 인가장치(ICG)를 이용하여 시편에 10~40 kA의 충격파 전류를 인가하여 실시하였다. ITO 나노입자 코팅의 효과와 인가전류의 세기에 따른 손상영역의 크기와 잔류압축강도를 AE 거동과 연관하여 평가하였다. 손상영역의 크기는 초음파 C-scan 영상을 이용하여 측정하였으며, AE events 수와 AE event가 발생하기 시작할 때의 압축응력 수준을 연관시킨 결과 ITO 나노입자 코팅 CFRP의 경우 상대적으로 손상이 작고 훨씬 높은 용력수준에서 AE가 발생하기 시작하였다. CAI시험 중 AE측정은 실제로 낙뢰손상을 입은 복합재 동체 구조물의 손상된 정도를 구별하는 데 유용한 지표로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

인공위성 영상레이더 위상간섭기법은 널리 활용되고 있는 원격탐사 기술로서 지진, 화산, 지반침하 등으로부터 발생한 단단한 지각 표면의 변위를 매우 정밀하게 주기적으로 관측할 수 있는 연구 활용분야의 한 종류이다. 습지대 환경처럼 수상 표면에 식생이 존재하는 경우에는 지표면과 동일한 방법을 적용하여 넓은 지역에 대한 높은 공간해상도의 수위 변화 지도 제작이 가능하다. 현재 다양한 파장 대역의 인공위성 영상레이더 시스템이 운용 중에 있으며 여기에는 넓은 지역에 대한 영상을 효과적으로 획득할 수 있는 광역 관측 ScanSAR 모드를 제공하는 위성도 다수 포함되어 있다. 본 논문의 연구 지역인 콜롬비아 북부의 Ciénaga Grande de Santa Marta (CGSM) 습지대는 카리브 해안을 따라 고지대에 위치한 광대한 습지 지역이다. CGSM 습지대는 해수면 상승과 기후 변화와 같은 자연적인 원인 뿐만 아니라 20세기 후반부터 시작된 농업개발 및 도시확장 등의 다양한 인간 활동으로 인한 심각한 환경적 위협을 받고 있다. 최근 해당 습지 지역에 대한 생태학적 중요성이 대두되면서 해당 습지를 보호하고 복원하기 위한 다양한 계획이 진행 중에 있다. 주기적인 습지대 환경 모니터링에 있어 수위 변화 관측은 매우 중요한 자료를 제공하며 일반적으로 수위계와 같은 현장관측 자료 등에 의존하는 경우가 많다. 수위계의 경우 시간적으로 연속적인 자료 관측이 가능하지만 공간적 분포를 이해하기에는 어려운 경우가 많다. 본 연구에서는 현장 관측의 공간적 해상도의 부족함을 보완하기 위한 L-밴드 ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 ScanSAR 광역 관측 모드 자료의 영상레이더 위상간섭기법 습지대 수위 변화 관측 활용 가능성에 대해 평가하고자 한다. 광역 관측 모드의 공간해상도 및 위상간섭도 품질 비교를 위해 ALOS-2 PALSAR-2 stripmap 고해상 모드와 함께 분석하였다.

The present study has been performed to evaluate the clinical, microbiological, biochemical and immunological parameters associated with the periodontal disease activity in adolescent periodontitis. 21 young adolescents with evidences of periodontal attachment loss participated in the study for upto 3 years of examination. Probing pocket depths and attachment levels of whole dentitions were annually recorded and 4 deepest pockets, with initial probing depth ${\geq}$ 4mm, were selected as the representative experimental sites of a patient. Sites experiencing attachment loss ${\geq}$ 1mm during the 3-year experimental period were designated as the active sites and these sites were examined for the microbiological and biochemical profiles at the time when attachment loss occurred. Microbiological assay included cultural studies and PerioScan for monitoring BANA(+) organisms(e.g. Porphyromonas gingivalis, Treponema denticola, Bacteriodes forsythus). Biochemical assay has been performed for monitoring GCF levels of neutral protease. Serum IgG and IgG2 titers against Porphyromonas gingivalis 381 were determined of a patients at the beginning and the end of the study, respectively for patient-based analysis. The results indicated that the parameters consisting of microbiological cultures and GCF neutral protease exhibited low association with the periodontal disease activity in adolescents. However, the specificity for microbiological culture of the selected periodontopathic organisms(Aa,Pg,Pi) were considerably high. Moreover, the clinical pameters such as bleeding on probing and presence of plaque as well as IgG levels against Pg at the baseline exminations were closely associated with the subsequent evidences of attachment loss during the whole experimental period(3-year).

Purpose: Radiocontrast media are widely used in medical imaging to improve diagnostic accuracy. However, studies on the adverse reactions of radiocontrast media in children are limited. We aimed to describe the characteristics of adverse reactions to radiocontrast media among children who had a computed tomography scan or magnetic resonance imaging in a tertiary university hospital. Methods: We retrospectively collected data on adverse reactions to radiocontrast media by the reporting system of a tertiary university hospital. We selected data from children under the age of 19 from July 2011 to December 2017 and analyzed their characteristics. We focused mainly on the characteristics of the index case which is defined by the first adverse event of each subject. Results: During the period, a total of 88,050 radiocontrast media-enhanced imaging studies were performed and 184 cases of adverse reactions were reported. A total of 71 were identified as index cases. Forty-nine (69.0%) were male and the mean age was $12.7{\pm}3.2$ years. The incidence of radiocontrast media-related adverse reactions was 0.09% and severe reactions were 0.002%. The most common clinical feature was skin manifestations (54.9%), followed by gastrointestinal symptoms (40.8%) and neuropsychiatric symptoms (7.4%). Conclusion: Adverse reactions to radiocontrast media rarely occur in children and the incidence of severe reactions is low. Most reactions are mild and are related to the skin and gastrointestinal system. This report would provide good evidence for establishing a management strategy in children scheduled for imaging studies using radiocontrast media.

We report a method for optical monitoring of tumors in an animal model using optical coherence tomography (OCT). In a spectral domain OCT system, a superluminescent diode light source with a full width of 66 nm at half maximum and peak wavelength of 950 nm was used to take images having an axial resolution of 6.8 ${\mu}m$. Cancer cells of PC-3 were cultured and inoculated into the hypodermis of auricle tissues in BALB/c nude mice. We observed tumor formation and growth at the injection region of cancer cells in vivo and obtained the images of tumor mass center and sparse circumferences. On the $5^{th}$ day from an inoculation of cancer cells, histological images of the tumor region using cross-sectional slicing and dye staining of specimens were taken in order to confirm the correlation with the high resolution OCT images. The OCT image of tumor mass compared with normal tissues was analyzed using its A-scan data so as to obtain a tissue attenuation rate which increases according to tumor growth.

The scanning laser source (SLS) technique is a promising new laser ultrasonic tool for the detection of small surface-breaking defects. The SLS approach is based on monitoring the changes in laser-generated ultrasound as a laser source is scanned over a defect. Changes in amplitude and frequency content are observed for ultrasound generated by the laser over uniform and defective areas. The SLS technique uses a point or a short line-focused high-power laser beam which is swept across the test specimen surface and passes over surface-breaking or subsurface flaws. The ultrasonic signal that arrives at the Rayleigh wave speed is monitored as the SLS is scanned. It is found that the amplitude and frequency of the measured ultrasonic signal have specific variations when the laser source approaches, passes over and moves behind the defect. In this paper, the setup for SLS experiments with full B-scan capability is described and SLS signatures from small surface-breaking and subsurface flaws are discussed using a point or short line focused laser source.

Ultrasonic propagation imaging (UPI) has shown great potential for detection of impairments in complex structures and can be used in wide range of non-destructive evaluation and structural health monitoring applications. The software implementation of such algorithms showed a tendency in time-consumption with increment in scan area because the processor shares its resources with a number of programs running at the same time. This issue was addressed by using field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) that is a dedicated processing solution and used for high speed signal processing algorithms. For this purpose, we need an independent and flexible block of logic which can be used with continuously evolvable hardware based on FPGA. In this paper, we developed an FPGA-based ultrasonic propagation imaging system, where FPGA functions for both data acquisition system and real-time ultrasonic signal processing. The developed UPI system using FPGA board provides better cost-effectiveness and resolution than digitizers, and much faster signal processing time than CPU which was tested using basic ultrasonic propagation algorithms such as ultrasonic wave propagation imaging and multi-directional adjacent wave subtraction. Finally, a comparison of results for processing time between a CPU-based UPI system and the novel FPGA-based system were presented to justify the objective of this research.

A terrestrial LiDAR was used to acquire precise and high-resolution topographical information of Malipo beach, Korea. Terrestrial LiDAR and RTK-DGPS (VRS) were mounted on top of a survey vehicle and used to scan 20 times stop-and-go method with 250 m spacing intervals at ebb tides. In total, 7 measurements were made periodically from 2008 to 2009 and after each beach replenishment event. We carried out GIS-based 3D spatial analysis such as slope and volume calculations in order to assess topographical changes over time. In relation to beach replenishment, comparative analysis of each volume change revealed them to be similar. This result indicates that the terrestrial LiDAR measurements are accurate and can be used to analyze temporal topographical changes. In conclusion, the methodology employed in this study can be used efficiently to exercise coastal management through monitoring and analyzing beach process such as erosion and deposition.
