The ecology of estuarine bacteria in terms of bactenal production and biomass was investigated in Naktong embayment. Intrusion of eutrophic freshwater was one of the major factors affecting on the ecosystem of Naktong embayment. Total bacterial number varied from $2.2{\times}10^5 cells/ml to 9.8{\times}10^5 $ cellslml, and the variation ranges of the bacterial biovolume and biomass were 0.023-0.201TEX>$\mu$$m^3$/cell and 0.010-0.140 TEX>$\mu$g-Clml, respectively, and there was a reciprocal relationship between bacterial number and biomass. Pool size of thymidine varied from 12.93 nM to 44.56 nM. The pool during summer was supposed to be composed of easily utilizable form than the typical one of winter, which suggests thal bacterial productivity measured in summer may be underestimated. Bactenal production varied from 0.12 TEX>$\mu$g-Cllh to 22.38 TEX>$\mu$g-Clllh, and the values were low in winter and increased from spring and reached the highest in summer. The variations of bacterial production showed high correlations with temperature, chlorophyll a, and bacterial biomass. These results suggested that the main source of organic matters which influence the bacterial production in Naktong embayment may be the photosynthetic excretory products of phytoplanktons.

The free-livein nitrogen fixing bacterium, Arcobacter nitrofigilis which has been known to be a microaerophile, exhibited aerobic growth in brucella broth. In a level of oxygen equivalent to an air atmosphere (21% $O_2$), the maximum cell growth was observed in brucella broth. Low level of cell growth occurred in a level of low oxygen equivalent to lower than 2%, unless any other terminal electron acceptors other than oxygen were wupplied in brucella broth. Membrane-bound cytochrome b and c, and soluble cytochrome c were found. The growth in an aerobic atmosphere, little growth at low oxygen level, and occurrence of cytochrome c mean that this species is an aerobe and obtains energy using energy-yielding respiration.

현대사회로 들어오면서 과거와 달리 외부에 있던 화장실이 내부로 들어오면서 변기 뚜껑을 닫지 않고 toilet flushing을 할 때 배변에 포함된 다량의 장티푸스, 포도상 구균 같은 종류의 세균이 화장실 곳곳에 퍼짐에 의하여 면역력이 약한 경우 여러 가지 세균성 질환 및 2차 감염을 통하여 장티푸스 및 피부 질환 등이 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 이런 감염을 최소화하기 위한 방법으로 플라즈마를 이용한 세변기 표면의 오염 방지처리 기술을 개발하는 것을 목표로 한다. 일차적으로 여러 가지 운용 조건에서 오염의 정도를 파악하고자 배변의 양에 따라 toilet flushing 시 피부 오염의 물질 노출 정도를 평가 하였다. 실험 방법은 배변을 모사하여 toilet system에 넣고 물을 내려 무게에 따른 물 튀김 정도와 위치 분포를 분석하였다. 밀가루 반죽의 무게가 증가하면서 피부에 닿는 물 튀김 면적이 특정 무게에서 최대 60.02 mm2까지 증가하다 감소했다. 또한 실제 측정 결과를 통하여 물 튀김의 분포가 뒤쪽에 집중되는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이와 같이 실제 toilet flushing시 세균에 의하여 피부 오염 및 국부 감염이 발생할 수 있다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 비데 동작 시 변기 내부에 잔존하는 세균 자체가 확산되는 정도를 3차원 유체 역학 모델링으로 예측하였다. 앞으로 세변기 뚜껑의 플라즈마 표면처리 및 toilet flushing 유로 디자인 개선을 통해 세균의 잔류 및 퍼짐을 최소화함으로써 최종적으로 세균성 질환을 줄일 수 있는 방법을 개발하는 것이 본 연구의 1단계 목표다.

Bacteria play an important role in biogeochemical cycles in marine environments and their functional attributes in ecosystems depend primarily on species composition. In this study, seasonal variation of bacterial diversity was investigated by pyrosequencing of 16S rDNA in surface sediment and overlying seawater collected in the south East Sea, planned for the site of $CO_2$ sequestration by the carbon capture and storage (CCS) project. Gammaproteobacteria was dominant in the sediment in most seasons, whereas Alphaproteobacteria was a most dominant group in the overlying water. Thus, the bacterial diversity greatly differ between sediment and seawater samples. On the genus level, bacterial diversity between two habitats was also different. However, the number of genera found over 5% were less than 10 in both habitats and the bacterial community was composed of a number of diverse minor or rare genera. Elevation of $CO_2$ concentration during a $CO_2$ storage process, could result in change of bacterial diversity. Thus, this study will be very useful to access the effect of $CO_2$ on bacterial diversity and to predict functional change of the ecosystem during the process of CCS project.

Recurrent bacterial meningitis is the reappearance of two or more episodes of meningitis caused by a different or same organism after an intervening period of full convalescence. Predisposing factors for recurrent bacterial meningitis include immunodeficiency and developmental and traumatic anatomical defects. Therefore, careful evaluation of children with recurrent meningitis is essential. We report the case of a patient with a skull base abnormality who had suffered from four events of bacterial meningitis between 8 and 17 years of age. He experienced another event of bacterial meningitis at the age of 21, without undergoing correction for the anatomical defect. Streptococcus agalactiae was identified in the patient's blood and cerebrospinal fluid culture. Afterwards, he underwent surgical treatment for a meningioma; this meningioma was strongly suspected as the cause of the recurrence.

시설 내 온도가 상승함에 따라 고온기가 되면 세균성 병해가 기승을 부리게 된다. 일단 발병이 되면 방제가 불가능하므로 병 발병 후 '치료'보다는 '예방'위주의 관리를 해야 한다.
