The residents' odor complaint is steadily increasing by odor causing from sewage system. A current drainage facilities and septic tank are included in the individual sewerage according to Sewerage Act. However, definitions and legal standards of drainage tank are insufficient. In addition, specifications and maintenance standards related to structure and size are not established. In this research, effect of drainage tank in individual sewage facilities on the odor occurrence was studied and the concentrations of $H_2S$ and composite odor were measured. From the measurements, the concentration of $H_2S$ and composite odor were 1 ppm ~ 5 ppm and 1.04 OU ~ 4.05 OU, respectively, before pump operation. Also, the concentration of $H_2S$ and composite odor were 5 ppm ~ 33 ppm and 5.10 OU ~ 35.04 OU, respectively, after pump operation. The concentration of SS in the effluent from drainage tank was ranged from 840 mg/L to 1,980 mg/L. These high concentration of SS seemed to be the major source of foul smell when high concentrated suspended solids in the public sewerage system were decomposed and then emitted. In this research, correlation coefficient ($R^2$) between $H_2S$ and composite odor before and after pumping were 0.925 and 0.918, respectively.

In this study, a biological odor treatment system was proposed to remove odor(foul smell) materials causing several problems in the closed sewage treatment plant. This odor treatment system was composed of a two-step biofilter system in one reactor. The two-step biofilter reactor was constructed with natural purification layer in upper part and artificial purification layer in lower part. The reed grasses of water purification plants were planted in the surface area and mixed porous ceramic media were filled with the lower part of biofilter reactor. By using the above experimental apparatus, the ammonia gas removal efficiency was attained to 98.3 % and the hydrogen sulfide gas removal efficiency was appeared more than 97.7 % which shows more effective than the conventional odor removal process.

There are many advantages when using IIF and DNA probe methods over anaerobic culture method in that they are time-and effort-saving, more precise and more sensitive. Furthermore, in IIF and DNA probe methods, the detection is possible only with small amount of bacteria, the quantitative analysis is possible, and the cell viability is not necessary. The purpose of this study is to observe the incidence of P.endodontalis by carrying out anaerobic culture, IIF and colony lift using DNA probe method respectively, and to compare these 3 methods in terms of effectiveness and sensitivity in order to identify the most effective detection method. 30 teeth with at least one clinical symptoms, with single canal, and with pulp necrosis were sampled. For sampling bacteria, access cavity was prepared after disinfecting tooth and its surroundings. Then the paper point was inserted up to the periapical area, leave there for a while, and finally it was placed into PRAS Ringer's sol. and PBS sol. In anaerobic culture method, P.endodontalis was identified by biochemical tests after subculturing black and brown colonies which were produced after 7 days of incubation on BAP and Brucella BAP in anaerobic chamber. To identify P.endodontalis in IIF method, species-specific polyclonal rabbit-antisera of P.endodontalis(ATCC 35406) was reacted with sampled PBS sol. dispensed onto glass slide, and then P.endodontalis was examined by phase contrast microscopy after incubating with Goat anti-rabbit lgG conjugated to Fluorescein isothiocyanate. For colony lift using DNA probe method, membranes were laid over colonies on the surface of BAP and were hybridized with cloned DNA probe of P.endodontalis. The existence of P.endodontalis was then identified by the methods of chemiluminescent detection and color metric detection. Black colony was found in 11 teeth out of 30 teeth and P.endodontalis was detected in 6 teeth (20 %) by anaerobic culture method, 16 teeth (53 %) by IIF method, and 7 teeth (23 %) by DNA probe method. IIF method is significantly better in detecting P.endodontalis than DNA probe method and anaerobic culture method. There was no significant differences between DNA probe method and anaerobic culture method. There was significant correlation between the formation of black colony and the existence of P.endodontalis. The probability of detecting P.endodontalis when black colony being present is 2.89 times higher than when not being present. There was significant relationship between the foul odor of clinical symptoms and P.endodontalis. The sensitivity of existing P.endodontalis when foul odor being present was 93.75 %, while the specificity of not existing P.endodontalis when foul odor not being present was 28.57 %. These results suggested that the probes of P.endodontalis will be used to decide the method and prognosis in endodontic treatments.

Bacterial soft rot was observed on radish grown in Hongcheon, Kanwon-Do, Korea. The soft rot symptoms began as small water-soaked lesions. The water-soaked lesions enlarged rapidly in roots and produced a foul odor. When roots were affected in the field, the shoots also became infected and watery, causing infected plants to wilt, disorganize, and die. The causal organism was isolated from the lesions, and the identified as Erwinia chrysanthemi based on the morphological, physiological and biochemical characteristics. E. chrysanthemi is first described bacterium which causes bacterial soft rot on radish in Korea.

We experienced a rare hepatic tuberculous granuloma with subphrenic abscess. The patient was 45-years old female. She complained the right flank pain and tenderness on the protruding mass for 2 weeks. It was fixed, erythematous and 5x5cm sized mass, which was thought as cold abscess. She has done the hysterectomy as endometriosis at November 1990. Under general endotracheal anesthesia, the mass was incised, but the pus was not found. The needle aspiration was done through the 8th ICS, then the yellowish non-foul odor pus was rushed out. The 7th and 8th ribs were resected segmentally about 5cm. The abscess cavity was placed in the subphrenic area, therefore the operative fields extended along the 8th ICS. After the evacuation of subphrenic abscess, the granulomatous tissues from the superior aspect of liver was seen. The granuloma was resected and the penrose drainage was inserted. The tuberculosis was resulted from the 8th ICS muscles. subphrenic abscess and granuloma on the pathology report.

An odontoma is a slow growing and nonaggressive odontogenic tumor composed of enamel, dentin, cementum, and pulp tissue. The etiology of odontomas is unknown, although local trauma, infection, and genetic factors have been suggested. Odontomas are classified as compound odontoma or complex. A 20-year retrospective study was performed on 36 odontomas from the files of the Department of Oral Pathology at Chosun University School of Dentistry. Fifty-six percent of the patients were compound odontoma and 44% were complex odontoma. 56 percent of the patients were female and 44% were male. The odontoma is most often diagnosed in the second decade of life, during routine radiographic examination. The usual presenting symptoms are an impacted or and unerupted tooth, a retained primary tooth. Other less frequent signs and symptoms are pain, swelling, suppuration, foul odor, tooth mobility. In our patients were treated by enucleation of the tumor, and related teeth were treated by surgical extraction or orthodontically assisted eruption.

Human cysticercosis is an infestation with C. cellulosae, the larval stage of the tapeworm T. solium. It prevails in regions of poverty and where personal hygiene is poor. They can lodge in almost any tissue, but cysticerci are most frequently found in brain, skeletal muscle, subcutaneous tissues. We experienced a 41-year old male with $5{\times}12cm$ sized movable non tender brownish hard mass at lateral abdominal wall. The laboratory study didn't show any specific symptoms except peripheral blood eosinophilia and positive parasite ELISA screen for cysticercosis. The ultrasonogram revealed multiple ill-defined mixed echoic inflamatory lesion. Excisied cyst showed multiple severe foul-odor gelatinous subcutaneous mass. Microscopic examination disclosed necrotic body with foreign body reaction, massive eosinophilia and dead parasitic organism, compatible with cysticercosis. There was no evidence of recurrence during 12 months follow-up.
