Background : Ever since Flexible Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy was introduced into clinical practice, it has played an important role in both diagnosis and therapy of respiratory diseases. Repeated bronchoscopic examinations is are not so uncommon. This study was designed prospectively to assess the clinical availability of the Repeated Flexible Bronchoscopy (RFB). Methods : Pre-established indications were as follows : 1) To confirm diagnosis or the cell type in proven malignancy 2) to diagnose or locate hemoptysis 3) to follow-up or confirm recurrence 4) to use in therapy. We performed RFB and analyzed the data in 156 patients during 28-month period. Results : The frequency of RFB was 23.0%. The indication for diagnosis or cell type of malignancy was 25 cases, of which 2 cases were confirmed by a third bronchoscopic examination and 3 cases by surgical procedures. Localization of the bleeding site was confirmed in 53.8%. RFB for small cell lung cancer yielded more information on residual or recurred lesion not apparent even with the CT scan in 30%. Previous cases of bronchostenosis due to endo-bronchial tuberculosis was shown to have worsened in 66.7%. Therapeutic manipulations were done in 126 cases, and bronchial suction was most common. Complications showed decreasing tendency with repeated examinations. Conclusion : The RFB for diagnosis or cell type of malignancy was useful in that comfirmation of diagnosis was possible in 85.7% of malignancy. More aggressive procedures should be employed including TBLB or TBNA. The RFB showed possible usefulness in the follow-up of patients with small cell lung cancer. For the patients with hemoptysis or endobronchial tuberculosis, the RFB did not the significance did not show significance because its results did not influence the diagnosis, therapy or clinical course.

모바일 클라우드 서비스에 대한 요구에 따라 다양한 관련 기술들이 소개되고 있다. 이 중에서 모바일 원격접속 프로토콜은 RFB와 RDP, 두 개의 표준 프로토콜로 나뉜다. RFB 프로토콜은 구조의 단순함이, RDP 프로토콜은 빠른 응답속도가 상대적인 장점이다. 이 중, RDP 프로토콜은 윈도우즈 환경에 종속적인 제약이 있는데, SPICE 프로토콜은 이러한 RDP 프로토콜과는 달리 가상화 환경에 최적화된 오픈소스 프로토콜이다. 이러한 SPICE 프로토콜의 특징은 모바일 클라우드 환경에 상당한 이점을 가질 수 있다. 본 논문은 PC환경에서 RFB와 RDP, SPICE 프로토콜을 비교해 보고 모바일 환경에서의 활용성을 가늠해 본다. 그리고 모바일 환경에 가장 적합한 SPICE 프로토콜이 안드로이드에서 동작가능한지를 살펴보고 발생 가능한 문제점과 해결방안을 살펴보고자 한다.

The Salmonella rfb gene encoding for the biosynthesis of the oligosaccharide-repeating units of the O-antigenic determinants was cloned and sequenced. A set of nucleotide primers(a forward and reverse) was selected to target a defined region of the guanosine diphospho-mannose(GDP-Man) pyrophosphorylase synthase gene : rfbM of Salmonella C serogroup. The primer set was used to develop a PCR-based rapid and specific detection system for Salmonella C1 serogroup. Amplification bands of predicted size(1,422bp) were generated from 11 different Salmonella C1 isolates. The bands were verified to be specific for the C1 serogroup by Southern blot analysis using reference homologous DNA specificity was further confirmed by the lack of reactivity with heterologous DNA derived from non-salmonella members of the family enterobacteriaeceae. A specificity of 100% was deduced along with a very high sensitivity shown by a detection limit of 1fg of a purified DNA template. The isolated DNA sequence was found to be 99.8% homologous to S montevideo but the related primers amplified with the predicted band sizes with all the Salmonella C1 serogroups tested. It is concluded that the PCR protocol based on the rfbM gene from S cholerasuis is optimal fast and specific for the detection of Salmonella C1 serogroup and also the corresponding probe is suitable for rapid detection of all Salmonella C1 serogroup DNA tested. This technology should facilitate the identification of contaminated pig products and for any other products contaminated with the Salmonalla C1 serogroup. The immediate impact of this developed method will be in the area of food safety of pig products with the potential prospect for adaptation to other food inspection technologies.

The redox flow battery (RFB) is a large-capacity energy storage equipment, and the vanadium redox flow cell is a typical RFB, but VRFB is expensive. Iron-chrome RFBs are economical because they use low-cost active materials, but their low performance is an urgent problem. One of the reasons for the low performance is the crossover of the active materials. In this study, the sulfonated Poly (ether ether ketone) (sPEEK) membrane, which is a hydrocarbon membrane, was used instead of the fluorine membrane to reduce the crossover of the active materials. The chromium ion permeability of the sPEEK membrane was $1.8{\times}10^{-6}cm^2/min$, which was about 1/33 of that of the Nafion membrane. Thus, it was shown that the use of the sPEEK membrane instead of the fluorine membrane could solve the high active material crossover problem. The activation energy of iron diffusion through the sPEEK membrane was 24.9 kJ/mol, which was about 66% of Nafion membrane. And that the e-PTFE support in the polymer membrane reduces the active material crossover through Iron-Chrome Redox Flow Battery (ICRFB).

In recent years, the energy storage systems such as LiB, NaS, RFB(Redox-Flow Battery), Super- capacitor, pumped hydro storage, flywheel, CAES(Compressed Air Energy Storage) and so on have received great attention as practical solutions for the power supply problems. They can be used for various purpose of peak shaving, load leveling and frequency regulation, according to the characteristics of each ESS(energy storage system). This paper will focus at 1 MWh RFB system, which is being developed through the original technology project of energy material. The output of ESS is mainly characterized by C-rate, which means that the total rated capacity of battery will be delivered in 1 hour. And it is a very important factor in the ESS operation scheduling. There can be several options according to the operation intervals 15, 30 and 60minutes. The operation scheduling is based on the optimization to minimize the daily electricity cost. This paper analyzes the cost-saving effects by the each operating time-interval in case that the RFB ESS is optimally scheduled for peak shaving and load leveling.

A fixed-bed zinc/nickel redox flow battery (RFB) is designed and developed. The proposed cell has been established in the form of a fixed bed RFB. The zinc electrode is immersed in an aqueous NaOH solution (anolyte solution) and the nickel electrode is immersed in the catholyte solution which is a mixture of potassium ferrocyanide, potassium ferricyanide and sodium hydroxide as the supporting electrolyte. In the present work, the electrode area has been maximized to $1500cm^2$ to enforce an increase in the energy efficiency up to 77.02% at a current density $0.06mA/cm^2$ using a flow rate $35cm^3/s$, a concentration of the anolyte solution is $1.5mol\;L^{-1}$ NaOH and the catholyte solution is $1.5mol\;L^{-1}$ NaOH as a supporting electrolyte mixed with $0.2mol\;L^{-1}$ equimolar of potassium ferrocyanide and potassium ferricyanide. The outlined results from this study are described on the basis of battery performance with respect to the current density, velocity in different electrolytes conditions, energy efficiency, voltage efficiency and power of the battery.

The paper proposes RFB(Record Filtering using Bit-vector) join algorithm, an in-network strategy that uses bit-vector to drastically reduce the size of data and hence the communication cost. In addition, by eliminating data not involved in join result prior to actual join, communication cost can be minimized since not all data need to be moved to the join nodes. The simulation result shows that the proposed RFB algorithm significantly reduces the number of bytes to be moved to join nodes compared to the popular synopsis join(SNJ) algorithm.

An epizootic of calf diarrhea occurred in a Korean native cattle farm located in Chonbuk province. The calves that had either bloody or watery diarrhea were 1 to 30 days old. Some of these animals died during the acute course of the disease. Five calves with predominant clinical signs were examined in more detail. Hematological and serum chemical findings were suggestive of dehydration and nutritional insufficiency. Fecal material from the calve was cultured on/in brilliant green agar (BGA), xylose-lysine deoxycholate (XLD) medium, MacConkey agar, eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar and triple sugar iorn (TSI) A bacteria was isolated. which was subsequently identificed as belonging to Salmonella spp. To differentiate Salmoenlla serotype, rfbs gene of S. dublin was amli- find (720 bp) by multiplex (PCR). The rfbS gene sequences of S, dublin ficld isolate(SDC-1) was com- pared with that off S. dublin(S-37) S, dublin(Ahn et al, 1996), S enteritidis(Ahn et al 1996)and S. typhi (Generbak accession No M29682). The identities of nucleotide sequences were 100%. 99.6%, 99.6%, 97.5% respectively.
