In Korea, brucellosis has been reported periodically in cattle and rarely in dogs; however, it has not previously been screened in domestic animals such as elk, pigs and goats. To investigate the serological prevalence, serum samples were taken from the aforementioned animals annually during 2007-2013 and screened by the rose-bengal test (RBT) or modified RBT, after which positive sera were evaluated by the standard tube agglutination test (STAT). Finally, RBT and STAT-positive sera were confirmed by competitive-ELISA. Brucella abortus biovar 1 was isolated from three elk that were shown to be positive serologically in 2008. There was no evidence of brucellosis in pigs. Based on serological monitoring and investigation of etiological agents, there is no evidence of outbreak of brucellosis in elk, pigs or goats of Korea since 2008. However, the possibility for brucellosis from cattle to affect these other livestock exists; therefore, extensive and continuous serological monitoring is required to maintain their brucellosis-free status.

The Korea Laboratory Accreditation Scheme (KOLAS) operates accreditation programs for ensuring measurement traceability with the International System (SI) of Units - the highest calibration standard that measurements can be tested against. As of September 2023, there are 70 KOLAS-accredited laboratories in the Republic of Korea that specialize in humidity calibration. Among them, 32 KOLAS laboratories, along with one laboratory not affiliated with KOLAS, participated in the proficiency test (PM 2023-11) for relative humidity transducers in 2023. This proficiency test was conducted within a relative humidity range of 20-90% at a temperature of approximately 20 ℃, taking into consideration the calibration and measurement capability (CMC) of the participating laboratories. The primary objective of the proficiency test was to establish the measurement equivalence between each participating laboratory and the reference laboratory, by calculating the number of equivalence (En). When |En| was less than 1, the measurements from the participating and reference laboratory were equivalent. Out of the 33 participating laboratories, 32 successfully met this criterion and passed the proficiency test.

Berchemia berchemiaefolia (BB) are climbing plants or small to medium-sized trees that live in Africa, Asia and America. We performed the present study to investigate whether oral administration of Berchemia berchemiaefolia extract (BBE) protects SD rats from pain. The SD rat experimental groups were divided into four groups. Two of the animal model groups were fed on BBE (200 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg). We performed oral acute toxicity test to determine the optimal oral dose of BBE. To explore if BBE alleviated pain in the SD rat, we undertook the tail flick latency test and formalin test. Additionally, we conducted the anti-oxidative test. The findings of the present study suggest that Berchemia berchemiaefolia extract exhibits strong antioxidant and analgesic activities.

RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) system is recognition technology which can maintain various object's information. Reliability of RFID tags is the most important factor in RFID system. In this paper, we proposed ALT (Accelerated Life Test) method for UHF RFID tags. Temperature and humidity were adopted as stress factors and the accelerated life tests were conducted in three different conditions. We performed failure analysis for identifying failure mechanism and statistical analysis of test data. In the statistical analysis, we employed Inverse Power law for relationship between tag's life and stress. Through the statistical analysis, we proposed acceleration factor for several levels of temperature-humidity. The reliability qualification test plans were also designed for the tag's target reliability.

The accelerated life tests of the catalytic gas sensor were performed at three different gas concentration conditions. From the test data, the power-Weibull model was estimated and the acceleration factor between test condition 25%LEL(Lowe Explosive Limit) and use condition 5%LEL was about 3 according to this acceleration model. Using this acceleration factor, life test specification for qualifying that B10 lifetime of the catalytic gas sensor meets the goal lifetime (5 years) was designed.

For lihgtning and switching impulse voltage performances in laboratories, impulse voltage measuring system, which is consisted of voltage divider, recording instrument and connecting system between divider and recording instrument, is used. In order to show reliability of test result in test laboratory, tracebility of these measuring system to be using in test laboratory is needed. In this paper, we describe tracebility and uncertainty of impulse voltage measuring system in test laboratory.

일반적으로 점토의 비 배수전단강도 산정은 실내실험을 통해 구하지만 초연약점토의 경우 재료의 특성 상 실내실험이 어렵고, 현장실험 또한 여러 제약조건들을 감수해야 한다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 실내에서 수행한 물성실험 및 슬럼프실험과 실내 베인 전단실험의 결과를 회귀분석을 통해 슬럼프 값과 비 배수전단강도 사이의 상관 관계식을 도출하였다. 도출된 상관 관계식의 신뢰성 확보를 위하여 t-분포를 이용한 통계분석을 실시하였고 현장의 데이터와 비교 분석하여 관계식의 적용성 및 신뢰성을 확보하였다.

Survivability is a necessary property of network system in disturbed environment. Recovery ability is a key actor of survivability. This paper concludes network survivability into a novel composite metric, i.e. Network Recovery Degree (NRD). In order to measure this metric in quantity, a concept of Source-Destination Pair (SD Pair), is created to abstract end-to-end activity based on end nodes in network, and the quality of SD Pair is also used to describe network performance, such as connectivity, quality of service, link degree, and so on. After that, a Survivability Test method in large scale Network based on SD pairs, called STNSD, is provided. How to select SD Pairs effectively in large scale network is also provided. We set up simulation environment to validate the test method in a severe destroy scenario and evaluate the method scalability in different large scale network scenarios. Experiment and analysis shows that the metric NRD correctly reflects the effort of different survivability strategy, and the proposed test method STNSD has good scalability and can be used to test and evaluate quantitative survivability in large scale network.

Two cases of classical swine fever (CSF) disease have broken out in Cheolwon (7 April, 2002). The suspected pig herds were huddled together because of high fever (over $40^{\circ}C$) and showed remarkable decrease of the leukocytes. The staggering gait related to posterior weakness, constipation and lethargy, hyperemia, hemorrhagic lesions (on the skin, muzzle, ears, limbs, tail and inner part of legs) and conjunctivitis with dirty streaks below the eyes were observed. The inflammation in the lung, infarction in the spleen, swelling and hemorrhage in lymph nodes, kidney, intestine, heart and cheese like purulent inflammation of the tonsil were observed. The ulcers of the colon were also detected. Several clinical and laboratory techniques including blood test, histo-pathological examinations, indirect fluorescent antibody (IFA) test and RT-PCR test were applied to diagnose the disease. Inoculation test on PK-15 cell was also performed. The necrosis of the lymphatic cells and infiltration of the vessel circumferential cells in the brain and lymph organs were commonly viewed. The proliferation of the glia cell (gliosis) in the lymph was particular. Cytopathogenic effect (CPE) and specific fluorescent-bright-green areas (with IFA) appeared in PK-15 cells inoculated with suspected blood plasma. The IFA test on the epithelial and mucous membrane cells of tonsil was positive. RT-PCR technique required more working hours and labor than other techniques in this examination but it was useful because of the sensitivity to the CSF viral gene.
