  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of alcohol gel according to the amount and drying time in health personnel hand hygiene and to promote in their practice adequate and effective hand hygiene. Methods: The crossover experimental study was performed with 14 volunteers. Hands were artificially contaminated with 5 mL of $10^8$ CFU/mL of Serratia marcescens (ATCC 14756) and four different alcohol gel hand hygiene methods varying by the amount of alcohol gel (2 mL vs. 1 mL) and drying time (complete vs. incomplete) were compared. Samples were collected by glove juice sampling procedures. Results: Mean log reduction values of the four different hand hygiene methods were $2.22{\pm}0.36$, $1.26{\pm}0.53$, $1.49{\pm}0.60$, $0.89{\pm}0.47$ respectively for the 4 groups: adequate amount (2mL) and complete dry (30 seconds rubbing followed by 2 min air-dry), inadequate amount (1 mL) and complete dry, adequate amount and incomplete dry (15 seconds rubbing and no air-dry), and inadequate amount and incomplete dry. The difference was statistically significant in the adequate amount and complete dry group compared to other three groups (p<.001). Conclusion: Only alcohol gel hand hygiene with adequate amount and complete drying was satisfactory by U.S. FDA-TFM efficacy requirements for antiseptic hand hygiene products.

  • 본 연구는 기계식 환기장치에 의한 선박 선실 내의 환경오염물질 확산특성을 파악한 것으로, 연구성과는 다음과 같다. 오염발생 선실 내에서는 오염발생 35분 경과 후 오염물질이 대부분 제거되었고, 신선외기 도입율 변화에 따른 영향은 무시할 수 있었다. 오염원 선실에 인접한 선실의 오염물질 제거시간은 65분~100분 정도로 신선외기 도입율에 따라 차이가 발생했다. 상부 데크에 오염원 선실이 있는 경우가 하부 데크에 오염원 선실이 있는 경우에 비해, 오염농도는 10배 정도 높지만, 대표 공간 중 오염된 공간의 수는 오히려 1/2에 불과했다. 그러나 전체공간을 대상으로 한 평가에서는, 상부 데크에서 오염물질이 발생한 경우에는 Upper 데크 이상 상부 데크 내 공간의 50% 이상이 평가기준 0.001%, 0.01%, 0.1% 일 때 오염될 것으로 예측되었고, 하부 데크에서 오염물질이 발생하는 경우에는 하부 데크를 중심으로 오염공간이 많지만 오염판단기준 0.01%일 때에는 Shelter 데크 이상의 상부 데크에서도 오염선실이 나타났다. 한편, 신선외기 도입량 변화에 따른 오염농도 및 오염공간 비율을 분석한 결과 설계용량 대비 75% 이상의 외기가 도입될 때 선실 내 오염수준이 낮아지는 것으로 평가되었다.

  • In this research, a vision system for detecting tool breakage which is hardly detected by such indirect in-process measurement method as acoustic emission, cutting torque and motor current was developed and embedded into a PC-NC system. The vision system consists of CMOS image sensors, a slit beam laser generator and an image grabber board. Slit beam laser was emitted on the tool surface to separate the tool geometry well from the various obstacles surrounding the tool. An image of tool is captured through two steps of signal processing, that is, median filtering and thresholding and then the tool is estimated normal or broken by use of change of the centroid of the captured image. An air curtain made by the jetting high-pressure air in front of the lens was devised to prevent the vision system from being contaminated by scattered coolant, cutting chips in cutting process. To embed the vision system to a Siemens PC-NC controller 840D NC, an HMI(Human Machine Interface) program was developed under the Windows 95 operating system of MMC103. The developed HMI is placed in a sub window of the main window of 840D and this program can be activated or deactivated either by a soft key on the operating panel or M codes in the NC part program. As the tool breakage is detected, the HMI program emit a command for automatic tool change or send alarm to the NC kernel. Evaluation test in a high speed tapping center showed the developed system was successful in detection of the small-radius tool breakage.

  • 본 연구에서는 연료극 또는 공기극에 함유된 불순물인 황화합물의 도입을 차단할 수 있는 GDL을 제조하여, 이를 평가용 단위전지에 체결하여 $H_2S$$SO_2$를 연료극과 공기극에 각각 동시에 공급하여 PEMFC의 성능 저하 및 회복에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과 $H_2S$$SO_2$의 농도가 증가함에 따라 전지의 성능이 감소하며 특히 10 ppm 이상의 농도에서는 10분 이내에 약 10-15% 정도 성능이 감소하였다. 특히 GDL 표면의 기공이 없는 CN-2 GDL을 체결한 단위전지의 경우 피독에 의한 성능 감소 속도가 더 빠른 것을 확인하였다. 그리고 단위전지 피독 후 황화합물이 혼합되지 않은 순수 가스를 1시간 이상 공급하였을 때 전지의 성능이 GDL의 종류에 따라 90%에서 95% 이상 회복되며 CN-1 GDL의 경우가 가장 회복이 우수하였다.

  • This study examined microbial contamination during seasoned and dried squid Dosidicus gigas processing, including the apparatus, machines, and employee's gloves at each step in processing at two companies. The numbers of bacteria floating in air in each processing area were also examined. The numbers of Staphylococcus aureus (3.6-6.0 log CFU/g) and Escherichia coli (1.3-1.4 log MPN/100 g) in domestic and imported daruma (a semi-processed product of seasoned and dried squid) at companies A and B exceeded the regulatory limits of the Food Sanitary Law of Korea (S. aureus, ${\leq}2.0$ log CFU/g; E. coli, negative). S. aureus in both daruma was reduced to below the detection limit or 3.6 log CFU/g after the roasting step, but increased again to 3.3 and 5.5 log CFU/g after the mechanical tearing step at companies A and B, respectively. E. coli showed similar tendencies at both companies. The surfaces of the apparatus, machines, and employee's gloves that contacted daruma were also contaminated with S. aureus (1.0-5.5 log CFU/$m^2$) and E. coli (negative-to 3.5 log MPN/$m^2$). The numbers of bacteria floating in air were high (1.7-5.1 log CFU/$m^3$) at both companies. These results suggest that sanitation standard operating procedures (SSOP) must be developed to control of microbial cintamination in seasoned and dried squid.

  • Lots of waste are produced from cities and embeded at the depository. The waste produces chemicals and organic matters. Those toxicants contaminate air and water. The pollution causes the increase of insects thereby to spray pesticide on the depository as well as its outskirts. Chemicals and pesticide ingredients are accumulated on the depository and released into outskirts. Those toxic agents are assumed to generate DNA damage to animals exposed to the water and air pollutions. To prove the possibility of DNA damage to pollution, comet assay was conducted on lymphocytes of animals exposed to the pollution of a depository at Southern part of Seoul. Peripheral lymphocytes of animals were treated with endonuclease III and electrophoresed. Broken DNA was released and measured under fluorescence microscope. The measurement showed no statistically significant DNA damage but some individuals showed higher DNA damage than in that of control group. These experiments were carried out on rabbits and dogs, the most and the least contaminated, respectively. The rate of DNA damage of cows was in between that of rabbits and dogs.

  • Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate the relations between the bacterial concentration and the environmental factors in the water soluble metal working fluids at factories. Methods: The bacterial concentrations for airborne and fluid samples of 7 factories were quantified during the summer season. And we statistically analysed the relations between the bacterial concentrations and the factors such as temperature, relative humidity, usage quantity, mixing ratio and exchange interval. Results: The geometric mean levels of the airborne bacterial concentrations were 79.1(range : N.D.~686) $CFU/m^{3}$ and 68.1(range: N.D.~919) $CFU/m^{3}$ in the process and outdoor. The airborne bacterial concentrations showed no statistical difference by process, usage quantity, mixing ratio and exchange interval. The airborne bacterial concentrations had negatively weak correlations with air temperature and relative air humidity(p<0.05). The bacterial concentrations and pH showed significantly negative correlations in the fluids(p<0.05). And the airborne bacterial concentrations in factories and those in metal working fluids showed no statistical relationship. Conclusions: In the water soluble metal working fluids using factories, the airborne bacterial concentrations of the process were related to those of the outdoor and environmental factors, rather than the onsite contaminated metal working fluids.

  • 운항의 여러 단계 중 착륙단계에서 조종사들이 많은 부담을 느낀다. 이는 조종사들이 항공기 속도를 줄이고 접지하여 완전히 정지하는 동안 착륙안전에 영향을 미치는 여러 요소가 있기 때문이다. 만일 착륙하는데 활주로길이가 충분하다면 부담이 적을 수도 있다. 그러나 항상 그런 경우만 있는 것은 아니다. 따라서 착륙성능이 제한범위 내에 있는지 아닌지를 확인할 필요가 있다. 필요착륙거리는 시험비행 조종사에 의해 실증되어진 실제착륙거리에다가 항공사의 평균적인 조종사들을 위한 여유분을 포함한 것이다. FAR의 AFM(항공기 비행규정) 인가는 건조 및 습윤 활주로에서 수동착륙을 기반으로 한다. 기타 다른 활주로 조건에서는 인가가 필요하지 않다. JAR에서는 빙설/윤활활주로에서도 정해진 여유분을 포함시키도록 규정하고 있다. 자동착륙은 인가사항이 아니므로 실제착륙거리만 제공된다. 본 논문에서는 각 활주로 조건에서 포함된 거리 여유분을 분석하고자 한다. 또한 특정한 활주로 조건에서 여유분이 규정되어 있지 않은 경우 대안을 제시하고자 한다.
