  • The inhibitory effect of the food processing agent on growth of Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Enteritidis, and Listeria monocytogenes was performed with organic acid, and combination of citric acid, acetic acid, propionic acid and vanillic acid. The minimun inhibitory concentration(MIC) of propionic acid was 5,000 ppm in E. coli O157:H7, 2,500 ppm in Salmonella Enteritidis and Listeria monocytogenes. MIC of citric acid was 10,000 ppm in E. coli O157:H7 and Salmonella Enteritidis, 2,500 ppm in Listeria monocytogenes. MIC of acetic acid was 2,500ppm, while in vanillic acid was 5,000 ppm in Escherichia coli O157:H7, Salmonella Enteritidis, and Listeria monocytogenes. MIC of combined organc acid in E. coli O157:H7 were 2,500ppm in PC, 1,250 ppm in PA, PV, CA, CV and AV. MIC of combined organc acid in Salmonella Enteritidis were 2,500 ppm in PC, PA, PV, CA, and CV, 1,250 ppm in AV. MIC of combined organc acid in Listeria monocytogenes were 1,250 ppm in all treatment group. MIC of combined treatment of three organc acid in E. coli O157:H7, S. Enteritidis and L. monocytogenes were 1,250 ppm in PCA, PCV, PAV and CAV. The inhibitory effect of organc acid in E. coli O157:H7, S. Enteritidis and L. monocytogenes could be confirmed from the result of this experiment. Therefore, it was expected that the food process would increase or maintain by using organic acid.

  • The aim of this study was to determine tile inhibitory effect of granitic powder against Microsporum canis. Fourteen strains of M. canis isolated from dgs and cats with fungal dermatitis and two strains isolated from humans were used in this study. The in vitro antifungal activities of granitic powder and 5 commercialized antifungal agents (terbinafine, itraconazole, ketoconazole, griseofulvin and fluconazole) were compared. The antifungal effect was measured by the broth microdilution method and was expressed as the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). The MIC value of the granitic powder was ranged from 31.3 to 250mg/ml. Terbinafine showed the lowest MIC value among the 5 commercial antifungal agents $(0.0078-0.125{\mu}g/ml)$, while fluconazole showed the highest MIC values $(125-1,000{\mu}g/ml)$. The MIC range of itraconazole, griseofuvin and ketoconazole were $0.125-0.5{\mu}g/ml\;0.625-5{\mu}g/ml$ and $10-40{\mu}g/ml$ respectively. The Geometric mean(GM) MIC values of terbinafine and ketoconazole against M. canis isolated from human were $0.0078{\mu}g/ml\;and\;10{\mu}g/ml$, respectively, while the GM MIC values of these agents against M. canis isolated from animals were $0.063{\mu}g/ml\;and\;31.4{\mu}g/ml$, respectively. Other antifungal agents did not show any significant differences in antifungal activity against M. canis of animal or human origin. Although granitic powder was shown to have antifungal activity, it was much lower than that of the 5 commercialized antifungal agents.

  • The present study was conducted to examine the drug susceptibility of 57 strains of Microsporum canis isolated from dogs with dermatitis in Taegu, 1999. Antifungal susceptibility test was performed by the microdilution method, using 7 antifungal drugs as follows: itraconazole(I), terbinafine(T), ketoconazole(K), griseofulvin(G), amphotericin B(A), flucytosine(5-Fc)(F), tolnaftate(To). All tester strains of M canis were highly susceptible to T, I, K and To(geometric mean $MICs{\leq}0.007{\sim}0.155{\mu}g/ml$), while those were lowly susceptible to G, A and F(geometric mean MICs $0.285{\sim}26.430{\mu}g/ml$).

  • Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion (MIC) occurring in underground buried pipes of API 5L X65 steel was investigated. MIC is a corrosion phenomenon caused by microorganisms in soil; it affects steel materials in wet atmosphere. The microstructure and mechanical properties resulting from MIC were analyzed by OM, SEM/EDS, and mapping. Corrosion of pipe cross section was composed of ① surface film, ② iron oxide, and ③ surface/internal microbial corrosive by-product similar to surface corrosion pattern. The surface film is an area where concentrations of C/O components are on average 65 %/16 %; the main components of Fe Oxide were measured and found to be 48Fe-42O. The MIC area is divided into surface and inner areas, where high concentrations of N of 6 %/5 % are detected, respectively, in addition to the C/O component. The high concentration of C/O components observed on pipe surfaces and cross sections is considered to be MIC due to the various bacteria present. It is assumed that this is related to the heat-shrinkable sheet, which is a corrosion-resistant coating layer that becomes the MIC by-product component. The MIC generated on the pipe surface and cross section is inferred to have a high concentration of N components. High concentrations of N components occur frequently on surface and inner regions; these regions were investigated and Na/Mg/Ca basic substances were found to have accumulated as well. Therefore, it is presumed that the corrosion of buried pipes is due to the MIC of the NRB (nitrate reducing bacteria) reaction in the soil.

  • Antifungal properties of methyl 2-benzimidazole carbamate(BMC) were investigated using 16 fungi. Cytotoxicity test of BMC revealed that the morphology of HeLa cells was considerably deformed even at the concentrations as low as 0.1 ppm. Minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC) values of BMC for 7 fungi among the 16 tested ones were lower than $1.95{\times}10^{-4}{\mu}g/ml$, while Aspergillus flavus showed an MIC value higher than 1.0 ${\mu}g/ml$. Tolerance induction against BMC was successful only for Paecilomyces farinosus LAR10, contrary to the expectation that tolerance would be induced for the fungi having high MIC values such as Aspergillus niger ATCC 9642 and A. flavus ATCC 9643. Spore germination of A. niger ATCC 9642 was suppressed by BMC. However the mycelial growth of the fungus once germinated was not retarded at all by BMC up to 8 MIC. Addition of lanosterol provided a remedy for the reduced germination rate of A. niger ATCC 9642 spores.

  • Monolithic 3D-IC는 현대 집적회로에서 interconnect로 인해 발생되는 여러 문제들을 해결하기 위해 새롭게 제시되고 있는 기술적 개념으로 구현 시 하위 소자 및 interconnet들에 영향을 주지 않는 저온공정이 필수적이다. 특히 germanium (Ge)은 낮은 녹는점 및 높은 캐리어 이동도 덕분에 3D-IC 구현 시 상위 소자의 channel 물질에 적합한 것으로 알려져 있다. 최근 이러한 Ge을 결정화하기 위해 solid phase crystallization (SPC), metal induced crystallization (MIC), laser annealing과 같은 결정화 방법들이 보고되고 있다. 현재까지 SPC 방법에 의해 얻어진 poly-Ge의 도핑농도 및 이동도와 같은 전기적 특성에 대한 분석은 수행된 바 있으나 3D-IC 공정에 적용이 가능한 MIC 기술을 통해 얻어진 poly Ge 필름에 대한 전기적 특성분석은 부족한 상황이다. 본 연구는 SPC 뿐만 아니라 MIC 방법을 통해 ${\alpha}$-Ge를 결정화시키고 얻어진 poly-Ge 필름의 전기적 특성을 XRD 및 hall effect measurement를 통해 분석하였다. 특히 일반적으로 Ge 내에서 p-type dopant로 동작을 하는 defect과 n-type dopant인 phosphorus 관계를 고려하여 여러 온도에서 SPC 및 MIC에 의해 얻어진 phosphorus doped poly-Ge 필름들의 전기적 특성을 분석하였다.

  • As the state of the art for handling multimedia on the internet is developed a new system called WebCAM which services video and image came out. However, WebMIC site for audio services are still rare. In this work, we developed a WebMIC system which enables anyone to listen audio in real-time through the internet. WebMIC system is implemented by connecting a server with a microphone and the recorded audio files are stored in a Database system. Because the microphones can be distributed sporadically, the developed system can be utilized for managing and advertizing a location. It also can be used to reduce the cost for the existing management system which is almost met by personnel expenses. Anyone who can connect to the internet can get this WebMIC service, so this system can produce a good effect if used in advertising any tourist resort.
