Parvimonas micra is a non-spore-forming anaerobic gram-positive coccus and a known commensal of the skin, gums, vagina, and gastrointestinal tract. It is rarely associated with severe infections, which typically follow invasive procedures such as dental treatment. We describe a case of a brain abscess caused by P. micra in an immunocompetent 11-year-old boy without periodontal disease. He presented with a 7-day history of headaches and vomiting, and complained of diplopia that began on the day of presentation. He did not have any recent dental treatment or specific past medical history. A brain abscess in the left frontoparietal lobe was noted on brain magnetic resonance imaging. P. micra was cultured from brain abscess aspirate. He was successfully treated with surgical drainage and combined antibiotic therapy with ceftriaxone and metronidazole for 6 weeks.

Computer security is considered important due to the side effect generated from the expansion of computer network and rapid increase of the use of internet. Therefore, Intrusion Detection System has been an active research area to reduce the risk from intruders. Especially, The paper proposes a new Security Policy-based Intrusion Detection System Model, which consists of several computer with Intrusion Detection System, based on Intrusion Detection System and describes design of the Security Policy-based Intrusion Detection System model and prototype implementation of it. The Security Policy-based Intrusion Detection Systems are distributed and if any of distributed Security Policy- based Intrusion Detection Systems detect anomaly system call among system call sequences generated by a privilege process, the anomaly system call can be dynamically shared with Security Policy-based Intrusion Detection Systems, This makes the Security Policy - based Intrusion Detection Systems improve the ability of countermeasures for new intruders.

We have studied initial oxidation of the alkali metal(AM)/Si(111) surface using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and reflection high energy electron diffraction(RHEED) at room temperature(RT) and high temperature(HT)(300~50$0^{\circ}C$). The oxidation of the Si(111)7$\times$7 surface was promoted by the adsorption of 1 momolayer(ML) AM, whereas no promotion occurred for submonolayer(<0.5 ML) adsorbed Si(111)7$\times$7 surface at RT. O Is core level spectra were measured with increasing oxygen exposure. It was found that the oxygen adsorbed on the Si(111)7$\times$7-AM surface have two different bond configuration, Si-O and Am-O, respectively. From these results, we discussed the role of AM-O bonding in the promoted oxidation. At HT(300~50$0^{\circ}C$), the AM-adsorbed surface became very inactive with the structural transformation to the 3$\times$1-AM. We present the results of the oxidation of the Si(111)3$\times$1-AM(Na, K, Cs) surface.

In children with Class III malocclusion, it is important to identify whether the etiology is functional, dental, skeletal. FR-III developed by Rolf Frankel in 1970, has been used during deciduous, mixed, and early permanent dentition to correct class III malocclusion characterized by maxillary skeletal retrusion. According Frankel, the vestibular shields and upper labial pads act to counteract the forces of the surrounding musculature that restrict forward maxillary development and cause a retrusion in maxillary tooth position. This can achieve favorable developments with the basal bone, teeth and alveolar bone. We report FR-III that can be applicated in cases of early mixed dentition with mild maxillary deficiency and deepbite before the eruption of permanent maxillary incisor.

We investigated the growth parameters of Candida parapsilosis isolated from spoiled red ginseng extract. The optimum pH range for C. parapsilosis was 6.0, whereas the minimum and maximum pH values that permitted growth were 3.0 and 11.0, respectively. For cells grown in PG medium plus 0 and 60％ sucrose, the optimum water activity(Aw) values were 0.98 and 0.97, respectively. The optimum temperature for C. parapsilosis were 3$0^{\circ}C$ at an Aw of 0.90 in 4.8％ potato dextrose broth with 18％ sucrose (PGS). Cations inhibiting the growth of C parapsilosis were L $i^{+}$ $Ca^{2+}$, $Mg^{+2}$, $K^{+}$ in decreasing order, while anions were S $O_4$$^{2-}$, N $O_3$$^{[-10]}$ , C $l^{[-10]}$ .TEX> .

The SMB chromatography is used to obtain high purification of fructooligosaccharides (FOS), the mixture of kestose and nystose. SMB operation condition is usually determined by triangle theory or standing wave design when reactions do not occur within columns during experiment. Some of the reactions in columns may considerably affect experimental results. FOS can be hydrolyzed and converted into glucose and fructose during operation. To include the effect of reaction, the concentrations of each component at steady state after hydrolysis were used in simulation. The obtained simulation values are well matched with experimental results except sucrose. For sucrose, the experimental results were different from expected one due to the existence of an intermediate component. FOS is easily hydrolyzed and converted into glucose and fructose in more acidic condition and at higher temperature. Hydrolysis reaction can be prevented by the pretreatment of separation resin with NaOH as well as operation under lower temperature.

Electroconvective instability is a non-linear transport phenomenon which can be found in ion-selective transport system such as electrodialysis, Galvanic cell and electrolytic cell. The instability is triggered by the fluctuation of space charge layer in adjacent of ion-selective surface, leading to increase of mass transport rate. Thus, in the aspect of mass transport, the instability has an important meaning. Although recent experimental techniques have opened up an avenue to direct visualize the instability, fundamental investigations have been conducted in limited area due to several experimental limitations. In this work, the electroconvective instability under potentiostatic mode was solved by numerical method in order to demonstrate correlation between current-time curve and the instability behavior. By rigorous time-resolved analysis, the transition behaviors can be divided into three stages; formation of space charge layer - growth of electroconvective instability - steady state. Furthermore, scaling laws of transition time were numerically obtained according to applied voltage as well.

Compared to other gene transfer system, the advantages of retrovirus-mediated gene transfer are technical ease, efficient expression and genetic stability. Despite the high potency of the retrovirus vector system in gene transfer, one of the drawbacks is a difficulty in concentration of virus stock. To overcome this problem, we tested a new retrovirus vector system producing the progeny retrovirus particles encapsidated with VSV-G (vesicular stomatitis virus G glycoprotein). The infectivity of this virus was not sacrificed by ultracentrifugal concentration and the host cell range extended from all mammalian to fish embryos. Virus titer after 1,000 x concentration was more than 10$^{8}$ CFU/ $m\ell$ on most of the target cell lines. We applied this pantropic viruses in transgenic chicken production by injecting the concentrated (100$\times$) stock into subgerminal cavity of stage X chicken embryos. The survival rate of chicken embryos after injection was about 20% and gene integration rate in surviving embryos was scored almost 100%. Analyses of RT-PCR and fluorescence microscopy, however, showed no evidence of the transgene expression.

Despite some skeptical views on the possibility of earthquake prediction, observation and evaluation of precursory changes have been continued throughout the world. In Korea, the public concern on the earthquake prediction has been increased after 2016 $M_L5.8$ and 2017 $M_L5.4$ earthquakes occurred in Gyeongju and Pohang, the southeastern part in Korea, respectively. In this study, the abnormal increase of groundwater level was observed before the 2016 $M_L5.8$ Gyeongju earthquake in a borehole located in 52 km away from the epicenter. The well was installed in the Yangsan fault zone, and equipped for the earthquake surveillance. The abnormal change in the well would seem to be a precursor, considering the hydrogeological condition and the observations from previous studies. It is necessary to set up a specialized council to support and evaluate the earthquake prediction and related researches for the preparation of future earthquake hazards.
