This study was conducted to investigate inhibition effect of sanitizers against E. coli and a hygienic condition on the surface of utensils and equipments which were used to food service. Samples swabbed using cotton were collected from the surface of stainless steel, wood and plastic utensils and equipments which were used to food service at four elementary schools in Busan and analyzed by measuring the total, coliform and Salmonella spp. count. Total plate counts were 10$^4$~10$^{5}$ CFU/100 cm$^2$ in most of utensils and equipments except plastic cutting board. There were lots of coliforms in slicer (2.8$\times$10$^1$CFU/100 cm$^2$) and peeler (1.1$\times$10$^1$CFU/100 cm$^2$). It was indicated that the sanitary condition of some utensils and equipments such as slicer and peeler should be improved promptly. To investigate inhibition effect of sanitizers against E. coli, the surface of utensils and equipments used in food service was treated at different concentration of sodium hypochlorite for 1 minute and 3 minutes, respectively. The plastic utensils and equipments were most effective aganist E. coli at 100 ppm sodium hypochlorite for 3 minutes. But the stainless steel and wood were most effective at 200 ppm sodium hypochlorite for 3 minutes. It was also treated with 70% ethyl alcohol for 10 seconds and 30 seconds, respectively. The stainless steel utensils and equipments were most effective aganist E. coli at 10 seconds, but plastic and wood were most effective at 30 seconds. Therefore, the results of this study indicated that standardization of disinfection method of utensils and equipments used in food service should be given and sanitation training for dietition should be conducted continuously.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the priority of menu management by importance-performance analysis (IPA) of school foodservice menu attributes. Questionnaires were distributed to 448 school dietitians with an official letter, and a total of 292 responses were used for analysis. From the 21 menu attributes, the factors of 'nutrition', 'educational effect', 'capability consideration', 'ease of quality management', 'efficiency', and 'preference of students' were induced from exploratory factor analysis. The levels of importance (p<0.01) and performance (p<0.05) of the 'nutrition' factor were significantly higher with nutrition teachers than school dietitians, while the importance of the 'preference of students' factor showed significantly higher score with school dietitians (p<0.05). As a result of gap analysis for IPA, only the 'efficiency' factor was located in the area where performance was higher than importance, whereas no menu attribute factors were included in the 'concentrate here' area by the usual IPA. Further analysis showed that there should be more effort to improve the performance of an 'educational effect' factor for a school foodservice menu.

There have been many studies on patients who suffer from anxiety disorders. However, there is been not enough attention on the difference in the level of between the two populations with and without anxiety disorders. This study was performed to investigate the difference in the ANS responses induced by fear in children. Experimental procedures were as follow: All subjects were in upper grade levels in elementary school. ANX(anxiety) scales of PIC(Personality Inventory for Children) were used to measure fear anxiety. Audio-visual clips were used as stimulus to provoke fear emotion. Baseline of physiological signals, ECG, PPG, EDA, and SKT, were measured for 30 seconds before the fear stimulus. Physiological signals were then recorded for 2 minutes while fear is evoked. Psychological and physiological responses were analyzed. All the children reacted to the fear stimulus with high intensity of fear. Physiological responses showed that SKT, SCR, NSCR, HR, RSA, RESP, HF were increased, while R-R was significantly decreased, respectively, during the period of fear induction. Analysis of the level of anxiety and the physiological responses produced by the experience of fear revealed a statistically significant positive correlation in SKT, HR, and RSA. In other words, the higher the level of anxiety, the higher the levels of SKT, HR, and RSA when children experienced fear in conclusion, it is confirmed through this research that physiological responses to fear is associated with the level of anxiety each individual.
