Recently, the personal cloud computing service has been being spotlighted as an individual tool of productivity enhancement. However, compared to the rosy forecast, its diffusion rate in the domestic (Korean) market is much slower than expected. In order to find the reason for the slow growth of personal cloud computing service, we attempt to identify influencing factors on user's adoption resistance, while most prior research has focused on the factors affecting its adoption. Based on both the person-technology fit model and the privacy calculus model, we propose technostress and perceived value as key antecedents of adoption resistance. In addition, we identify (1) technical (pace of change and complexity) and personal (self-efficacy) influencing factors on technostress, and (2) beneficial (perceived mobility and perceived availability) and harmful (perceived vulnerability) influencing factors on perceived value. To validate our research model, 133 individual samples were gathered from undergraduate and graduate students who had actual experience of using at least one of personal cloud computing services. The results of the structural equation modeling confirm that both technostress and perceived value have significant effects on adoption resistance, but they have different influencing mechanisms to different types of adoption resistance (indifference, postponement, and rejection). Theoretical and practical contributions are discussed in the conclusion.

In this study, 143 strains of Enterococcus spp. were isolated from inland pollution sources near shellfish farms on the west coast of South Korea. Not all isolated Enterococcus spp. strains possessed vancomycin resistance genes (VanA and VanB). However, since vancomycin-resistance Enterococcus (VRE) have been detected not only in the clinical field but also out in the world, it is possible that the VRE gene may be transferred to other bacterial strains commonly found in coastal waters where seafood is produced. It is important to monitor trends in the appearance of VRE. In addition, antimicrobial resistance patterns of isolates were examined in this study. Overall antimicrobial resistance rates were high: ciprofloxacin (32.2% of isolates resistant), chloramphenicol (30.8%), quinupristin/dalfopristin (19.6%), and tylosin (15.4%). Eight E. faecium strains (6.2%), out of the 129 strains assessed, showed multidrug resistance. All multidrug-resistant E. faecium showed resistance to erythromycin, quinupristin/dalfopristin, tetracycline, and tylosin, in all 14 strains. All multidrug-resistant E. faecalis showed resistance to erythromycin, quinupristin/dalfopristin, tetracycline, and tylosin. Both multidrug-resistant E. faecium and multidrug-resistant E. faecalis showed common resistance to erythromycin, quinupristin/dalfopristin, tetracycline, and tylosin.

Background: The current conventional serotyping based on antigen-antisera agglutination could not provide a better understanding of the potential pathogenicity of Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Brancaster. Surveillance data from Malaysian poultry farms indicated an increase in its presence over the years. Objective: This study aims to investigate the virulence determinants and antimicrobial resistance in S. Brancaster isolated from chickens in Malaysia. Methods: One hundred strains of archived S. Brancaster isolated from chicken cloacal swabs and raw chicken meat from 2017 to 2022 were studied. Two sets of multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) were conducted to identify eight virulence genes associated with pathogenicity in Salmonella (invasion protein gene [invA], Salmonella invasion protein gene [sipB], Salmonella-induced filament gene [sifA], cytolethal-distending toxin B gene [cdtB], Salmonella iron transporter gene [sitC], Salmonella pathogenicity islands gene [spiA], Salmonella plasmid virulence gene [spvB], and inositol phosphate phosphatase gene [sopB]). Antimicrobial susceptibility assessment was conducted by disc diffusion method on nine selected antibiotics for the S. Brancaster isolates. S. Brancaster, with the phenotypic ACSSuT-resistance pattern (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, sulphonamides, and tetracycline), was subjected to PCR to detect the corresponding resistance gene(s). Results: Virulence genes detected in S. Brancaster in this study were invA, sitC, spiA, sipB, sopB, sifA, cdtB, and spvB. A total of 36 antibiogram patterns of S. Brancaster with a high level of multidrug resistance were observed, with ampicillin exhibiting the highest resistance. Over a third of the isolates displayed ACSSuT-resistance, and seven resistance genes (β-lactamase temoneira [bla_TEM], florfenicol/chloramphenicol resistance gene [floR], streptomycin resistance gene [strA], aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferase gene [ant(3")-Ia], sulfonamides resistance gene [sul-1, sul-2], and tetracycline resistance gene [tetA]) were detected. Conclusion: Multidrug-resistant S. Brancaster from chickens harbored an array of virulence-associated genes similar to other clinically significant and invasive non-typhoidal Salmonella serovars, placing it as another significant foodborne zoonosis.

The 55 strains of Vibrio were isolated and identified; Vibrio parahaemolyticus was 35 strains, Vibrio vulnificus was 10 strains, Vibrio alginolyticus was 10 strains. 2. In the K-serotyping of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, fourteen serotypes identified but three were not strains typable by the availble K-antisera. 3. In the Kanagawa phenomenon experiment of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, it proved positive reaction, 14 of 15 strains(93%) isolated from the patient and 13 of 20 strains(65%) isolated from the nature. 4. In twelve antibiotic resistance experiments, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio alginolyticus showed 100% resistance on ampicilline, but Vibrio vulnificus showed 100% sensitivity. But all of them proved 100% sensitivity on chloramphenicol, tetracycline, nalidixic acid. 5. In the antibiotic resistance patterns, Vibrio parahaemolyticus proved that 15 strains(43%) resisted on 4 antibiotics and 5 strains(14%) resisted on 7 antibiotisc and. Vibrio vulnificus proved that 1 strain(10%) resisted on 2 antibiotics and 6 strains(60%) without resistance, Vibrio alginolyticus proved that 7 strains(70%) resisted on 3 antibiotics and 2 strains(20%) resisted on 8 antibiotics.

Device model parameters are very important for accurate estimation of electrical performances in devices, integrated circuits and their systems. There are a large number of methods for extraction of model parameters in power MOSFETs. For high efficiency, design is important considerations of a power MOSFET with high-voltage applications in consumer electronics. Meanwhile, it was proposed that the efficiency of a MOSFET can be enhanced by conducting JFET region double implant to reduce the On-resistance of the transistor. This paper reports the effects of JFET region double implant on the electrical properties and the decreasing On-resistance of the MOSFET. Experimental results show that the 1st JFET region implant diffuse can enhance the On-resistance by decreasing the ion concentration due to the surface and reduce the On-resistance by implanting the 2nd Phosphorus to the surface JFET region.

In this paper, we propose an effective on-line identification method for rotor resistance, which is useful in making speed control of induction motors without rotational transducers robust with respect to the variation in rotor resistance. Our identification method for rotor resistance is based on the linearly perturbed equations of the closed-loop system for sensorless speed control about th operating point. Our identification method for rotor resistance uses only the information of stator currents and voltages. In can provide fairly good identification accuracy regardless of load conditions. Some experimental results are presented to demonstrate the practical use of our identification method. For our experimental work, we have built a sensorless control system, in which all algorithms are implemented on a DSP. Our experimental results confirm that our on-line identification method allows for high precision speed control of commercially available induction motors without rotational transducers.

Disease susceptibility is linked to nutritional status for a wide range of human and animal diseases. Nutritional status can influence both resistance (ability to resist the pathogen) and resilience (ability to tolerate or ameliorate the effects of the pathogen). This review focuses on the nutritional modulation of gastro-intestinal nematode infection in domestic ruminants, primarily sheep. It highlights the duality of the adverse consequences of infection on host nutritional status and the adverse consequences of poor host nutritional status on resistance to infection. Central to both phenomena is the complex, gut-based immune response to gastrointestinal nematode infection. The potential for strategic nutritional supplementation to enhance host resistance and resilience is reviewed together with recent findings on responses to increased ME supply, and long term effects on host immunity of short term protein supplementation.

건축물의 바닥 하부에 설치되는 비내력 천장이 일정 시간의 내화성능을 확보할 경우 바닥 및 보에 요구되는 내화성능의 감소가 가능하다. 이에 따라 건물시공시 이들 부재에 시공되는 내화피복 절감 및 충전구조 시공 완화 등으로 인하여 공간 구획의 활용성이 증가하여 비교적 경량으로 대규모 공간에 대한 시공이 가능하게 되어 건물 시공 유지관리의 편의성 확보, 공사기간의 단축 및 비용절감과 같은 경제적인 건축생산이 가능하게 된다. 외국에서는 보 바닥 및 천장재를 하나의 복합 시스템으로 구성하여 내화구조로 시공하거나 천장자체의 내화성능을 확보하는 경우가 있으나 국내에서는 이에 대한 연구가 진행되지 않아 건축물의 고층 경량화에 따른 경제적인 효율성을 확보하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 국내 건축물에 적용 가능한 내화성능을 확보한 표준화된 비내력 내화천장구조의 개발이 필요하며, 이에 본 연구에서는 현재 일반적인 비내력 천장구조의 내화성능을 평가하여 향후 비내력 내화천장구조의 개발을 위한 기초자료를 제시하였다.
