항균제에 대한 내성 증가는 국내뿐만 아니라 세계적으로도 인류 건강에 큰논란이 되고 있다. 박테리아에 의한 감염을 치료하기 위해 같은 혹은 다른 계열의 항생제에 순차적으로 노출된다. 따라서, 본 연구는 ciprofloxacin과 meropenem의 순차적 처리에 따른 폐렴간균(Klebsiella pneumoniae)의 생육, 항생제 민감성, 돌연변이 빈도, ${\beta}$-lactamase activity, 생물막 형성 및 내성 관련 유전자 발현을 평가하기 위해 설계되었다. 처리군은 대조군(control; CON), 1/2 MIC ciprofloxacin (1/2CIP), 2 MIC ciprofloxacin (2CIP), 1/2 MIC ciprofloxacin+1/2 MIC meropenem+2 MIC ciprofloxacin (1/2CIP-1/2MEM-2CIP), 1/2 MIC ciprofloxacin+1/2 MIC meropenem+2 MIC meropenem(1/2CIP-1/2MEM-2MEM), 1/2 MIC ciprofloxacin+2 MIC ciprofloxacin+2 MIC meropenem (1/2CIP-2CIP-2MEM)을 포함한다. 24시간의 배양 동안 2CIP처리군에서 K. pneumoniae의 생육이 관찰되지 않았다. 모든 처리군에서 planktonic cell의 수는 7에서 10 log CFU/ml의 유의적인 차이를 보였으나 biofilm cell의 수는 7 log CFU/ml로 비슷하였다. 돌연변이 빈도는 1/2CIP-1/2MEM-2CIP에서 가장 낮은 14%을 보였다. 대조군과 비교하여 1/2CIP-2CIP-2MEM 처리 K. pneumoniae는 piperacillin, cefotaxime, nalidixic에 대한 민감도가 감소되었다. 1/2CIP-1/2MEM-2CIPrk 가장 높은 ${\beta}$-lactamase activity(22 nmol/min/ml)을 보인 반면 1/2CIP-2CIP-2MEM은 가장 낮은 ${\beta}$-lactamase activity (6 nmol/min/ml)을 보였다. Multidrug efflux pump 관련 유전자(acrA, acrB, and ramA)의 발현은 1/2CIP-1/2MER-2MER and 1/2CIP2CIP-2MER 처리된 K. pneumoniae에서 2배 이상 증가하였다. 따라서 순차적 항생제의 처리는 K. pneumoniae의 항생제 내성 양상을 변화시킬 수 있다.

Photovoltaic (PV) solar systems with series-connected module integrated converters (MICs) are receiving increased attention because of their ability to create high output voltage while performing local maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control for individual solar panels, which is a solution for partial shading effects in PV systems at panel level. To eliminate the partial shading effects in PV system more effectively, sub-MICs are utilized at the cell level or grouped cell level within a PV solar panel. This study presents the results of a series-output-connection MPPT (SOC-MPPT) controller for sub-MIC architecture using a single sensor at the output and a single digital MPPT controller (sub-MIC SOC-MPPT controller and architecture). The sub-MIC SOC-MPPT controller and architecture are investigated based on boost type sub-MICs. Experimental results under steady-state and transient conditions are presented to verify the performance of the controller and the effectiveness of the architecture.

A total of 98 strains of Bordetella bronckiseptica isolated from pigs affected the infectious atrophic rhinitis(AR) during 1978 were surveyed for drug sensitivity to 26 chemotherapeutic agents, and minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC), incidence rate of resistant strain and resistant patern from the strains which were obtained from the different pig farm in Jeonnam province were examined. The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. Most of the strains tested were resistant to Ampicillin (AB, PC), spiramycin(SPO, sulfa drugs (SD) (MIC:$400.0{{\mu}g/ml}$) and streptomycin(SM) (MIC:$200.0{{\mu}g/ml}$). Of the 75.0% of strains were also resistant to penicillin(PC) (MIC:$200.0{{\mu}g/ml}$) and of the 14.3 of strains were inhibited to grow to tetracycline(TC), chlortetracycline(CTC), oxytetracyc-line(OTC), erythromycin(EM), tylosin(TS), leucomycin (LM) and chloramphenicol (CP) (MIC:$6.25{{\mu}g/ml}$). On the other hand, most of the strains tested were inhibited to grow to kanamycin(KM), gentamycin(GM) neomycin(NM) (MIC:$25.0{{\mu}g/ml}$) and to colistin(CL) (MIC:$12.5{{\mu}g/ml}$). 2. Incidence rate of resistant strains to main chemotherapeutic agents was 100.0% of sulfa drugs, 96.4% of streptomycin, 85.7% of penicillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol and erythromycin, 46.4% of gentamycin, 17.9% of colistin and 0.0% of kanamycin and nalidixic acid.

In vitro antimicrobial activities of hot water extracts of Chamaecyparis obtuse, for clinical metallo-β-lactamase-Producing Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MBLPA.) was compared to commonly used conventional antimicrobial agents. All MBLPA was susceptible to colistin or amikacin, but also to imipenem 88.6%, meropenem 100%, piperacillin 85.7%, ceftazidime 97.1%, gentamicin 97.1%, and ciprofloxacin 100% were non-susceptible. MIC range to imipenem, meropenem, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, gentamicin, and ciprofloxacin for MBLPA were each 1 - >128 ㎍/mL, 4 - >128 ㎍/mL, 4 - >128 ㎍/mL, 8 - >128 ㎍/mL, 4 - >128, and 2- >128 ㎍/mL. MIC range to aztreonam for MBLPA were 1 - 128 ㎍/mL. MIC₉₀ to imipenem, meropenem, cefotaxime, ceftazidime, gentamicin, and ciprofloxacin for MBLPA were each 32 ㎍/mL, >128 ㎍/mL, >128 ㎍/mL, >128 ㎍/mL, >128 ㎍/mL, and 128 ㎍/mL. MIC₉₀ to colistin and amikacin were each 1 ㎍/mL and 64 ㎍/mL. The hot water extracts of C. obtuse leaf had the lowest MIC range (0.25 - >0.5 μL/mL), MIC₅₀ (>0.5 μL/mL), and MIC₉₀ (>0.5 μL/mL) of the clinical MBLPA tested, and it was possible more potent than various conventional antimicrobial agents for MBLPA infection patients. Therefore, it suggested the possibility of using extract components of C. obtuse or their derivatives to treat MBLPA infection patients.

호흡기질환 환자의 상기도 도말물로 부터 분리 동정된 M. pneumoniae 116균주의 moxifloxacin, levofloxacin, sparfloxacin, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin minocycline, erythromycin, josamycin, and tetracycline에 대한 감수성 검사를 실시하였다. 각 항생물질에 대한 저항성 균주의 기준은 $MIC{\pm}1.0$ ${\mu}g/ml$ 로 하였으며, 초기 MIC와 최종 MIC를 구분하여 다제 저항성 균주의 분포를 분석하였다. 초기 MIC의 결과로 분리된 균주의 단일 약제에 대한 저항성은 ciprofloxacin이 79.3%, ofloxacin이 53.5%, clarithromycin이 10.3%, erythromycin이 7.8%이었으며, 2가지 약제에 저항성은 ofloxacin과 ciprofloxacin이 42.2%, ciprofloracin과 clarithromycin이 9.5%이었으며, 3가지 약제에 저항성은 erythromycin, ofloxacin과 ciprofloxacin이 6.9%, ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin과 clarithromycin이 6.0%이었다. 최종 MIC의 결과로 분리균의 단일 약제에 대한 저항성은 tetracycline, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin이 각각 91.4%, minocycline이 89.7%, erythromycin이 68.1%, josamycin이 52.6%, clarithromycin이 28.5%, sparfloxacin이 11.2%이었으며, 2가지 약제에 저항성인 균의 분포는 $20.7{\sim}91.4%$, 3가지약제에 저항성인 규의 분포는 &28.5{\sim}89.7%$, 4가지 약제에 저항성인 균의 분포는 2.6%, 5가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $2.6{\sim}21.6%$, 6가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $0.9{\sim}24.1%$이었으며, 7가지 약제에 저항성인 균은 $0.9{\sim}2.6%$이었으며, 8종류 약제에 저항성인 균도 1.7%있었다. 이상의 결과로 국내에서 분리된 M. pneumoniae 균주는 적게는 1-4 종류의 항생제에, 많게는 5-8 종류의 항생제에 저항성인 균주가 있으므로 마이코플라스마폐렴 환자를 치료할때는 macrolide계나 quinolone계의 항생제 선택에 신중을 기하여야 하며, 가급적이면 항생제 감수성 검사를 실시하여 적절한 항생제를 선택함으로써 저항성균의 출현율을 줄일 수 있고 효율적인 치료도 할 수 있도록 하여야 할 것으로 생각된다.

A differencing multiuser detection (MUD) method is proposed for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) direct sequence (DS) ultra-wideband (UWB) system to cope with the multiple access interference (MAI) and the computational efficiency in Nakagami fading channel. The method, which combines a multiuser-interference-cancellation-based decision feedback equalizer using error feedback filter (MIC DFE-EFF), a coefficient optimization algorithm (COA) and a differencing algorithm (DA), is termed as MIC DFE-EFF (COA) with DA for short. In the paper, the proposed MUD method is illuminated from the rudimental MIC DFE-EFF to the advanced MIC DFE-EFF (COA) with DA step by step. Firstly, the MIC DFE-EFF system performance is analyzed by minimum mean square error criterion. Secondly, the COA is investigated for optimization of each filter coefficient. Finally, the DA is introduced to reduce the computational complexity while sacrificing little performance. Simulations show a significant performance gain can be achieved by using the MIC DFE-EFF (COA) with DA detector. The proposed MIC DFE-EFF (COA) with DA improves both bit error rate performance and computational efficiency relative to DFE, DFE-EFF, parallel interference cancellation (PIC), MIC DFE-EFF and MIC DFE-EFF with DA, though it sacrifices little system performance, compared with MIC DFE-EFF (COA) without DA.

Toxoplasma gondii is an opportunistic protozoan parasite that can infect almost all warm-blooded animals including humans with a worldwide distribution. Micronemes play an important role in invasion process of T. gondii, associated with the attachment, motility, and host cell recognition. In this research, sequence diversity in microneme protein 6 (MIC6) gene among 16 T. gondii isolates from different hosts and geographical regions and 1 reference strain was examined. The results showed that the sequence of all the examined T. gondii strains was 1,050 bp in length, and their A + T content was between 45.7% and 46.1%. Sequence analysis presented 33 nucleotide mutation positions (0-1.1%), resulting in 23 amino acid substitutions (0-2.3%) aligned with T. gondii RH strain. Moreover, T. gondii strains representing the 3 classical genotypes (Type I, II, and III) were separated into different clusters based on the locus of MIC6 using phylogenetic analyses by Bayesian inference (BI), maximum parsimony (MP), and maximum likelihood (ML), but T. gondii strains belonging to ToxoDB #9 were separated into different clusters. Our results suggested that MIC6 gene is not a suitable marker for T. gondii population genetic studies.

하나의 태양전지에 모듈화 시킨 소용량 MIC는 크기제한 및 신뢰성, 고효율이 가장 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 이러한 문제로 MIC는 태양전지의 높이에 맞게 설계하기 위해 변압기 코어와 컨버터 스위칭손실을 감소시켜야 한다. 본 논문에서는 Active Clamp방식의 인터리브드 플라이백컨버터를 적용하여 소형화 및 스위칭손실을 줄이는 고효율 MIC를 제안하였다.
