  • Senecavirus A (SVA), previously known as Seneca Valley virus, can cause vesicular disease and neonatal losses in pigs that is clinically indistinguishable from foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV). After the first case report in Canada in 2007, it had been restrictively identified in North America including United States. But, since 2015, SVA emerged outside North America in Brazil, and also in several the Asian countries including China, Thailand, and Vietnam. Considering the SVA occurrence in neighboring countries, there has been a high risk that Korea can be introduced at any time. In particular, it is very important in terms of differential diagnosis in the suspected case of vesicular diseases in countries where FMD is occurring. So far, several different molecular detection methods for SVV have been published but not validated as the reference method, yet. In this study, seven different molecular methods for detecting SVA were evaluated. Among them, the method by Flowler et al, (2017) targeted to 3D gene region with the highest sensitivity and no cross reaction with other vesicular disease agents including FMDV, VSV and SVD, was selected and applied further to antigen surveillance of SVA. A total of 245 samples of 157 pigs from 61 farms submitted for animal disease diagnose nationwide during 2018 were tested all negative. In 2018, no sign of SVA occurrence have been confirmed in Korea, but the results of the surveillance for SVA needs to be continued and accumulated at a high risk of SVA in neighboring countries.

  • According to the increase of foreign laborers at domestic construction sites, it's necessary to research in terms of the unsafe acts of both Korean and foreign laborers in order to prevent construction disasters. The objective of this study is to clarify the characteristics and the improvement priority of the unsafe acts using IPA(Importance-Performance Analysis). The result of this study showed which items of unsafe acts are identify difference between Korean and foreign laborers. Moreover, the result of IPA also showed items of unsafe acts that needed the immediate improvement for each one. Especially there are two items, i.e. equipment malfunction and wrong handling of hand tools, which both Korean and foreign laborers think simultaneous those needs improvement. The results can be utilized to plan and to improve the safety management and education at a site considering the characteristics of foreign laborers.

  • 국내 건설현장에서는 외국인 근로자들의 수가 증가함에 따라 그들에게 적합한 안전교육체계의 개발이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 외국인 근로자들을 위한 안전교육 모델을 제안하고 실제로 프로토타입의 안전교육시스템을 구현하였다. 그 결과로 이러닝 시스템 기반의 안전교육 모델을 개발하였다. 이 시스템은 국내 건설현장에서 근무하고 있는 외국인 근로자들이 안전교육을 잘 받을 수 있도록 지원해 줄 수 있을 것이다. 또한 현장의 안전관리자로 하여금 외국인 근로자들을 잘 교육하고 관리할 수 있도록 지원해 줄 것이다.

  • Biting midges belonging to the genus Culicoides (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) were collected by Mosquito $Magnet^{(R)}$ and black light traps at 5 sites on Jeju-do, Republic of Korea (Korea), from May-November 2013 to determine species diversity and seasonal distribution. A total of 4,267 specimens were collected, of which 99.9% were female. The most common species was Culicoides tainanus (91.8%), followed by C. lungchiensis (7.2%) and C. punctatus (0.6%), while the remaining 4 species accounted for <0.5% of all Culicoides spp. that were collected. High numbers of C. tainanus were collected in May, followed by decreasing numbers through August, and then increasing numbers through November when surveillance was terminated. Peak numbers of C. lungchiensis were collected during September, with low numbers collected from May-August and October-November. The presence of C. lungchiensis in Korea was confirmed by morphological and molecular analyses.
