Objective: This study was performed to assess bacterial distribution concerned in sanitation management of public lavatory in Seoul. Methods: In this research, bacteriological investigation on public lavatory was accomplished for bidet water, bidet nozzle, washbowl and lavatory stool in the 50 public facilities such as public institutions, subway stations, cinema, department stores, large-scale buildings and hospitals amount to 374 specimens. Results: The geometric mean of colony forming unit(CFU) in total aerobic colony count were analyzed as follows; $5.2{\times}10^2/100cm^2$ on lavatory stool, $7.2{\times}10^3/ea$ on bidet nozzle, $7.8{\times}10^3/ea$ on center ring of washbowl, $1.4{\times}10/mL$ in bidet water (ml) and 7.0/ea on doorknob. Opportunistically pathogenic germs such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Enterobacter cloacae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa were isolated in 3.7%, 5.9%, 3.2% and 1.9% of total specimens, respectively. Conclusion: The result of this study shows that there were some facilities where the pathogenic germs were detected to may cause urological infection. And the CFU of general bacteria as the representative indicator of disinfection and lavatory cleaning were high enough to imply the improvement of sanitation management of public lavatories should be contrived.

치과 진료실은 진료의 특성상 환자의 혈액과 타액 내에 있는 다양한 종류의 미생물에 노출되며, 진료 중 튀거나 에어로졸의 형태로 진료인과 환자의 신체 그리고 사용하는 모든 기구와 장비의 표면을 오염시키며 구강질병의 감염 가능성이 높아 치과영역의 교차감염에 관한 관심이 높다. 따라서 치과 진료실의 공기 중 미생물 분포와 오염정도를 조사하고 치과 진료기구의 오염과 치과 진료실의 감연방지에 대한 기초자료를 제공하고자 J시 9개 치과의원의 대기실과 진료실 공기를 자연방치법과 air sampler를 사용하여 공기시료를 채취하고 평판에 배양하여 공중낙하세균을 산출하고 생성된 집락을 세균 자동 동정기(ATB)로 분리 동정하여 세균의 분포를 검색한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 치과의원 환자 대기실 공기 중의 공중낙하 세균수는 자연방치법의 경우 1개 치과의원을 제외하고는 모두 10(CFU/Plate)이하여서 청결기준에 적합하였다. 2. 치과의원 진료실 공기 중의 공중낙하 세균수는 자연방치법의 경우 1개 치과의원을 제외하고는 모두 10(CFU/Plate)이하여서 청결기준에 적합하였다. 3. 황색포도상구균(Stapylococcus aureus) 검색결과는 1개 치과의원 만이 양성이었고 모두 비병원성 포도상 구균이 검출되었다. 4. 병원성 그람 음성간균의 검색결과는 1개 치과의원을 제외하고는 모두 검출되지 않았다. 5. 세균의 분포검사는 진료실의 경우 9개 치과의원 중 7개 치과의원에서 세균이 검출되지 않았고, 환자 대기실의 경우 4개 치과의원에서 세균이 검출되지 않았다. 또한 검출된 의원의 균주도 대부분 비병원균이었다. 이상과 같은 결과로 볼 때 J시 연구 선정 치과의원의 공기는 1개 치과의원을 제외하고 모두 위생적으로 관리하고 있음을 유추할 수 있었으나, 청소와 살균여부에 따라 증감을 보였기에 감염예방을 위한 체계적인 치과의원의 공기청정 및 살균관리 프로그램이 필요함을 시사하였다.

Recently, biological weapons (BWs) prepared with pathogenic microorganisms, toxins and biological vectors have been used maliciously for biological warfare, bioterrorism and/or agroterrorism by hostile countries and terrorists. In this review, historical background of disease and malicious use of BWs pathogenicity of microorganisms, advanced methodology involved in laboratory diagnosis, and prevention and control of anthrax (Bacillus anthracis), plague (Yersinia pseudotuberculosis subs. pestis), glanders (Burkholderia mallei), and smallpox (Variola virus) which have been abused for biological warfare or bioterrorism were discussed. In addition, the pathogenicity of microorganisms and the methodology needed to diagnose and control 6 diseases identified by WHO/CDC, ie., smallpox, inhalation anthrax, pneumonic plague, botulism, tularemia, and hemorrhagic fevers that would wreak havoc if terrorists successfully disseminated the germs by air were described.

Impulse of ki refers to palpitation around the navel, it is mostly caused by impairment of yang due to erroneous sweating, deficiency of the spleen yang. Behcet's syndrome caused by prolonged damp-heat and pathogenic germs. Its symptoms are characterized by conjunctival congestion, blue canthus and ulceration of the oral cavity, restlessness all the time, etc. It is advisable to follow the therapeutic principles of clearing away heat and drying damp, detoxicating and sterilizing. Lily disease is one of the emotional disease. It caused by yin deficiency of the heart and lung, found in mental depression or convalescence after a critical disease. Its symptoms are characterized by restlessness, reticence, insomnia, failure to walk, poor appetite, a subjective hot or cold, bitter taste and dark urine. It is advisable to follow the therapeutic principle of nourishing yin to clear away heat. Cholera refers to the disease marked by sudden severe vomiting and diarrhea, and colic of the heart and the abdomen. It is mostly caused by deficiency of the ki in the middle-energizer, emotional stress, etc. It is characterized by such symptoms as sudden severe vomiting and diarrhea, restlessness, etc. It is advisable to follow the therapeutic principles of warming yang and removing toxic substances, and strengthening the spleen and stomach. Heat invasion of blood chamber due to affection of the exterior pathogens, pathogenic heat invading the blood in deficiency and fighting with the blood. Its symptoms are marked by fever, feeling of the fullness, etc. There are deficiency of blood, hot blood and stasis of blood.
