This study was conducted to evaluate the sanitation level and use of dish cloths, chopping board, and drawer in the refrigerator in 50 university students' houses located in Seoul and Kyonggido. The survey questionnaire evaluated general information, frequency of the washing, cleaning method, drying method and the associated factors. The highest percentage of the cleaning and drying methods of dish cloths were “boiling(76.0%)”, and “dry in the kitchen or on the sink(78.0%)”, respectively. For the chopping board and drawer in the refrigerator, the highest percentage of cleaning method was “use detergent” and drying method was “dry in the kitchen”. The mean of coliforms for dish cloths, chopping board, and drawer in the refrigerator was 4.46${\pm}$1.95 log CFU/100 $cm^2$, 3.92${\pm}$1.64 log CFU/100 $cm^2$, 3.48${\pm}$2.01 log CFU/ 100 $cm^2$, respectively. Salmonella spp. were not detected from all samples. But E. coli were detected from dish cloths(4.0%) and S. aureus were detected from dish cloths(16.0%), chopping board(12.0%), and drawer in the refrigerator(8.0%).

I designed a dietary life kitchen utensils which is focused by the shape of split bamboo that has meaning of health and safety and the shaman who is the religion and incantation performer, and who solve problems, which are impossible to solve in common methods, by borrowing the power and granting the meaning which is connected with transcendent existence and principal. Having closest relation with human being's diet culture is being changed with adding beauty instead of the part of simple practical aspect in our normal life. I tried to show incantation effect with keeping the characteristic of kitchen utensils by granting the symbolic meaning of shamanism which is the shelter that is projected the desire of human beings. the materials were produced of an ebony and steel and varnished with lacquer for coloring. For hand shape, which is hard to treat in irregular forms, the religious image of shamanism was formed by casting which expresses the touch of an ebony and the cold characteristic of metal. an overall design doesn't detail excessively distort or largely transform the form of dietary utensils, keeps its individuality, and emphasizes the image by figuring a grip part which a human can see and a body can approach. in addition, I try to show a point that shamanism has affected human life for long time and symbolic meaning of bamboo-shape shows health and safety. And these things vest with each dietary life tools and should be the role of enzyme about the effect of human life.

Currently food-borne disease is being increased at outdoor food services including hotels and restaurants. Speedy and convenient practical monitoring techniques to determine hygienic conditions are needed. This study was designed to verify correlation of direct ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) examination method using ATP bioluminescence and surveillance with check-list by inspector. Hygienic status of personal hygiene (hands), kitchen utensils (knives, chopping boards, kitchen towels, cap openers, food storage containers, and blade of slice machines), facilities and equipments (refrigerator handles, worktables, and sinks) in five major hotels in Seoul were examined. The result of personal hygiene of hotels was relatively better than other inspection items (46.6 points in personal hygiene, 40.2 points in kitchen utensils, 40.3 points in facilities & equipments). In ATP inspection, kitchen utensils and facilities & equipments were relatively clean comparing with personal hands data ($40.8{\pm}6.77\;RLU/cm^2$). After correlation analysis of surveillance in hygienic status points and ATP value, all results showed negative and high correlation. The surveillance data and ATP results investigating personal hygiene, kitchen utensils and facilities & equipments were highly correlated. The ATP examination method which shows real-time identification could be considered as an appropriate method to alternate current check-list dependent safety management in food services including hotels.
