In recent years, the pathology in the colon grows up annually since people of all ages prefer to have less fiber and more fat food. Therefore, the colonoscopy is generalized in developed countries. But it requires much time to acquire a dexterous skill to perform an operation and the procedure is painful to the patient. Therefore, some studies on the development of autonomous colonoscope are carried out. In this paper, we propose a new and simple locomotive mechanism that can be propelled by elliptic motion of a leg. It has several legs that have constant phase difference each other and those legs are disposed along the upper and lower of the body. In order to evaluate the performance of locomotive mechanism, we carried out the simulations of moving characteristics and the experiments in the colon of a dead pig.

Colonoscopy is an important medical procedure for the diagnosis of various diseases like cancers in the colon and rectum. But it requires a lot of time for a doctor to acquire dexterous skills necessary to perform successful colonoscopy. Moreover, to many patients, conventional colonoscopy simply takes too long time. Therefore, some studies on the development of autonomous and more convenient colonoscope are carried out. In this Paper, we Propose a functional colonoscope robot system that has a locomotive function with a hollow body, a steering system, and other basic functions of typical conventional colonoscope systems. The concept and each component of the functional colonoscope system are described in this paper. In order to evaluate the functional performance of the colonoscope robot, we carried out in -vitro and in-vivo tests.

At Otani University in Kyoto, Japan, there is a rubbed copy of Tripitaka Koreana, presumably printed in 1381. According to the postscript of the copy, written by Saek Lee himself, the rubbed copy was made at Haeinsa temple in 1381 and was kept at Sinluksa temple in Yeuju. The copy was delivered as a gift to Japan in 1414 and now is kept at the Library of Otani University. Although an approximate summary of the content of the copy was reported in the early 2000s after a basic survey, details of the copy, including the concrete format and packaging paper, are not known yet. In this paper a detailed survey of the copy is conducted on the 109 pages. The copy is divided into two parts: the wrapping and the inner pages. The wrapping paper is divided into yellow and brown colors depending on the material of the paper. The yellow colorwrapping paper was possibly made in 1381 at the time of the rubbed printing, and the brown wrapping paper was repaired after being moved to Japan. Using funds collected in February 1380, the copy of Gyeong(經), Yul(律), and Ron(論) chapters was printed in April 1381. Binding of the copy was completed in September, and the wrapping paper with the title in gold was made in October 1380. The box for keeping Buddhist scriptures was manufactured in November 1380. The copy was moved to Sinluksa temple in April 1382 and delivered to Japan in 1414. At Otani University, the copy is stored in separate rectangular boxes 32.1×25.3cm in size with a height of 23.6cm. The rectangular plate on the four sides is red in external color but black colorinside. The box for keeping Buddhist scriptures was probably made in 1381, but a partial repair was made later. Because of the difficulty of executing a detailed survey of the box for Buddhist scriptures, it is hard to find out its nation and period of production. We look forward to studying the copy as well as the box for Buddhist scriptures in future.

The increasing regular medical check up rate for early diagnosis in disease has increasing sleep endoscopy rate because of reduction with discomfort. The purpose of this study was to determine the number of recovery bed as increasing sleep endoscopy rate using check up time, waiting time & recovery time at a general hospital in Seoul. This study was analyzed using ARENA 10.0 program. At present and as increasing of sleep endoscopy rate 10%, 20% was increased recovery time, waiting time & the rate of bed inflection. So at present, the number of recovery bed has to increase for client's safety and as increasing of sleep endoscopy rate 10%, 20% has to increase 3 and then waiting time decreased in 2 minutes.

내시경을 이용한 진단 및 시술은 빈번하게 이루어지고 있으며, 대장암의 증가와 정부의 암 조기검진사업의 영향으로 시행건수가 많아지면서 천공 및 출혈 등의 의료사고도 늘어나고 있다. 내시경 장비를 이용한 시술은 시술자의 경험이나 감각, 숙련도에 의존하여 시행된다. 내시경 시술시 내시경 선단부의 수평 및 수직, 압력에 대한 실시간 정보를 제공하면 의료사고를 줄일 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 가속도와 자이로센서를 융합하여 각도 및 자세정보를 얻고 압력센서를 이용하여 선단부가 받는 압력을 시술자에게 제공하여 내시경 시술시 천공 및 출혈 등의 의료사고를 줄일 수 있는 방안을 제시한다.

The disinfection effects of trichloroisocyanuric acid (TICA) and calcium hypochlorite on E. coli in aqueous suspension were comparatively characterized at various concentrations and exposure times of each disinfectant. When the E. coli ($10^{7}$ CFU/mL) cells were exposed with a solution containing 12 ppm each of TICA and calcium hypochlorite, a 90% of the initial cells were killed in 4 sec and 390 sec, respectively. In addition, calcium hypochlorite lost its disinfection effect in about 1 hr exposure under the sun light, whereas TICA maintained its disinfection effect up to 6 hrs under the same condition. These comparative studies demonstrate that TICA is a more effective and stable disinfectant than calcium hypochlorite to sterilize E. coli in aqueous suspension.

The number of viable microorganism in drinking water was monitored according to storage temperature and storage period. The number of general bacteria in underground water was 10$^2$~10$^{5}$ CFU/ml and that of coliform group was decreased after 7days. The number of general bacteria in bottle water was increased until 7days but decreased after that day. Coliform group in bottle water were detected only 1 sample. The number of general bacteria in purified water was 10$^3$~10$^4$CFU/ml and 10$^2$~10$^4$CFU/m1 at 8$^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. Coliform group were not detected in purified water.
